Do you remember that? Sega. All right, clap.
There you go. Okay, Dave, we didn't say burp.
I can burp. We didn't say belch. All right, second
half of the Dudes Like Us podcast, October 28th,
right before Halloween. Oh, shit. So exciting.
You guys coming over? What's the weather? The
plan is, what day is it actually? It's Friday.
It's a Friday. Oh, my God. Weather's going to
be nice. Are you listening to this? What day
is Halloween? I don't have kids that do this
anymore. I was busy. I didn't even think about
it. What's the weather supposed to be like? It's
going to be beautiful. I was gallivanting all
over Washington, D .C. 67. That was good. It's
going to be a great night. I'm going to have
speakers. I'm contemplating on whether to get
a subwoofer or not. Specifically for that night?
Can we talk about this? How do you say that word?
Subwoofer. Okay. Chuck, how do you say that word?
The same way. Say it, just for kicks and giggles.
Subwoofer. Good, good, good. How do you say it?
Subwoofer. See the difference? Subwoofer. Woofer?
No, not woofer, but subwoofer, as opposed to
subwoofer. So that's two words. So you could
stress out either one you want. But the inflection
matters. Like I said, subwoofer. It's like saying
TV versus TV. That's how you're saying it within
a sentence. Yeah. Did you want to turn on the
TV? Yeah. What are you talking about? Oh, Paul.
Oh, Paul's on the TV again. You're like, I just
bought a subwoofer or I bought a subwoofer. Boy,
you're really dialed in there. All right. So
the second half, obviously, of the Dudes Like
Us podcast. Thank you, Mr. Producer, for staying
on Top Stuff. Mr. Chuck. Dudes Like Us. I'm Sean.
I'm Paul. Paul. Oh, my gosh. Good Lord. I'm Jeff.
Just one drink. That's all you had before you
came? One. Well, how big was that drink? It was
a gallon. It doesn't matter. By the way, it wasn't
because of what I've had before. It was what
I've had now. What I've had, like, now. We have
an excellent whiskey for the second half. Bourbon
whiskey. Tasty. New one. We did bourbon whiskey.
I'm super excited about this. We got this one.
Fuck, I got this, like, almost eight months ago,
ten months ago. It's good. It's been sitting
in my closet, just kind of, like, collecting
dust. It's good. I'm so glad it came on. Here's
some odd flip. odd flavors to it. And we will
talk about it. It does. They're very unique.
We're not going to be able to find them. No,
we're not talking about it right now. We will
talk about it. Okay, look. All right, well, let's
jump into it. There's a lot of stuff going on.
We did. We talked about the first half. You guys
missed it. Check us out on dudeslikeus .com,
on Facebook and Instagram, but check us out on
all the platforms. RSS .com has them all, of
course, but we also have Spotify. What is the
other one? Yes. All of them. We're on all of
them. Apple. We're on Apple. All of them. But
the first half of our podcast, we talked about
the Dallas Cowboys sucking last week. Yes. We
talked about Jeff's trip to Washington, D .C.
for his wife's last marathon run. Marathon, yeah.
That's a big deal, man, by the way. Yes, it is.
Kudos to her. Kudos to her. Yeah. All right,
so I want to talk about one thing about the NFL.
Bad Bunny. What is Bad Bunny? Oh, the Super Bowl.
He's the tranny singer, right? Is he tranny?
I think he is tranny. He wears women's clothes.
Is he a tranny? It's not transsexual, though.
He's just a transvestite. Am I allowed to say
fag? Is that bad? Is that a thing to say fag?
Is he a bundle of sticks? No, that's a faggot.
A faggot is a fuel term used to put bundles of
sticks on fire. He is a man that wears women's
clothes on occasion, not all the time. Why are
you bringing this up? Because I want to know,
right now, there's a lot of people upset. I'm
upset. I'm going to watch the Turning Point Charlie
Kirk alternative halftime show. Okay. Me too.
Me too. That sounds great. Anyway, but there
are people that are upset. And now celebrities
and important people are kind of getting on board
with being upset. Hold on. The producer has a
picture of him. He's got the third eye. What
kind of crap is that? I don't know. Well, look
at him. Scroll down a little bit more. Okay.
Do you know what I think he is? Who's the - Weird.
Lady Gaga. Remember how Lady Gaga was all about
shock and awe, wearing meat dresses and super
crazy - She dressed like a man. Oh, yeah. Super
crazy shit. She had a meat skirt. Yeah. A meat
dress. A whole dress. So I think this guy's basically
just trying to pull from the Lady Gaga playbook.
Did you know - Okay. Did you know he was in the
Super Bowl halftime show a couple years ago?
I did not. The Shakira and Jennifer Lopez one.
Oh, the crotch. The crotch show. Yeah, he had
a brief little half a song in there. I don't
care. And nobody said shit, right? Yeah, but
because he wasn't. Well, because he wasn't the
headliner. He wasn't the headliner. They're not
talking. Look, he's jumped the shark. He's jumped
the shark in my eyes as far as the expectation
of what I want to see in the Super Bowl. I don't
want to see it. So they're starting to protest.
There's a petition. Going around. That the starlets
and stars are signing? I don't know if they're
signing the petition, but they're getting. Who's
in charge of the halftime? Is this at the MTV
production? With Jay -Z in it. Ultimately. Yes,
Jay -Z. Well, yes, but ultimately the person
who makes the call is. Why is Jay -Z? Yeah, and
he said, I'm not backing down. Look, the NFL
put Jay -Z in charge of it. Jay -Z picked him.
That's all you need to know. Well, I'm not watching
it. Yeah. So the NFL. Pete Gazelle or whatever
his name is. Roger Gazelle made a mistake. Exactly.
I agree. And he's part of the problem and not
the solution. And I don't care. You know what
irritated me though? So he is a Spanish guy.
I mean, a Spanish speaking, like all of his raps
are in Spanish. And so he's gonna, he's gonna
perform and it's going to all be in Spanish.
And you know what he said? He was like, well,
you got a problem with it? You know what? In
Spanish, I guess maybe. But he said, you got
four months to learning Spanish. That's what
he said to the American public. You got four
months to learn Spanish. I'm like, okay. Whatever,
dude. This is the first time outside of... I've
never heard of the guy outside of this. I find
that irritating. I really did. Highly irritating.
Outside of... It's arrogant. Was it the XFL?
Or was it where they had the halftime where you
have the women with the lingerie shows? The Playboy
lingerie halftime? You ever see that? No. I've
never seen it. I know about it. Okay, so they
have like a pay -per -view. During the halftime
show of the Super Bowl, there were girls playing
girls, and they were wearing lingerie. I think
it's stupid as fuck. You watch it every year.
Come on. Do they have it every year? I think
it's stupid as fuck, but I got the lifetime prescription.
I got the NFL ticket version of it. God bless
all three. I don't know. I know I've seen footage
of it. They actually go. Balls to the wall. They
do. They beat the shit out of each other. But
my point is that they do have alternative halftime
opportunities for people out there. The Charlie
Kirk thing you're talking about. The turning
point Charlie Kirk thing. And I'm subscribing
to it. I haven't yet. How do you? Is it a musical
show, though? Is there going to be an artist?
I don't know. Yes, sir. There are guys that have
pledged to, in fact, I think they're even doing
it for donations. Who have we heard who's performing?
Look it up. Look it up, Mr. Producer. I bet you
somebody has. The turning point halftime show?
Yes. I bet you somebody has said, hey, I'll do
it. I mean, it doesn't mean they will, but they
might have kind of signed up for it. Okay. It's
just speculation. Oh, they're speculating. So
Jason Aldean, Morgan Wallen. Yeah, okay. We got
some country stars. Neil Young and Joan Baez
are not playing. No kidding. Those are two liberal
hacks from the 60s. Morgan Wallen and Jason Aldean
have confirmed that they'll be doing the Star
-Spangled Banner. That's what you... Oh, the
Star -Spangled Banner. Okay, hey, I'm all in.
I'll watch the Turning Point USA one. I just
wanted to bring that up because I wasn't sure
how you guys felt about... Yeah, I mean... They're
kind of thumbing their nose at the fans of the
NFL. I think it's not just the NFL. Yeah, I think
it's the United States. I mean, look, what is
our... I don't want to show any disrespect to
the Mexican or the Spanish -speaking people out
there in the United States because it's not about
that. No, it's not about that. It's about read
the crowd. Yes. Read the room. Read the room.
And the room is NFL fans. And NFL fans, you know
what? It's an older generation. It's not a younger
generation for the most part. The money -making
part of the NFL. So how do they know? How do
they know that we're tuning into the tourney
point? You have to sign up. Is it free? Of course.
Of course it's free. I don't know. What is it
going to be served on? Is it going to be on a
website that you go to? I'm hoping it'll be covered
on Fox News or something like that. No. ABC or
whatever major network is not showing the Super
Bowl. They have a form. For your interest in
seeing the show, sign up for the email. Anything
in English. What music do you want? Anything
in English. That's awesome. We all have to sign
up for that then. That's just for updates though,
I think. It's to get emails about it. It's probably
to gauge interest. Anyway, I just wanted to open
with that, but there's another thing I want to
talk about. Let's talk about this Japanese Prime
Minister that you guys were telling me about.
What's the story behind this? It's a female drummer?
She's a conservative. She's the first female.
No, she just happens to play drums. She's not
a drummer. Oh, go ahead. I was going to say,
she's the first female prime minister of Japan,
which is a big deal. That's a huge deal. And
she's a conservative who used to be a lib who
worked for a liberal politician here in the States.
Wow. How did you guys know about all this? For
all this. This was not on my radar at all. And
as her time working through government, She saw
what libs were and everything, and she turned
conservative, and she ran for Japanese national,
obviously, and went to Japan. Went back to Japan.
So she's college educated in the United States?
I don't know where she got her education, but
she is, to Sean's point, she is a heavy metal,
I think thrash band fan. Like Metallica? I really
don't know, but I know she's a heavy metal band.
She's a heavy metal band during her youth. Yeah,
she plays the drums, and she's very good at it.
She also rides a motorcycle. She rides a Cherokee
Indian. Indian motorcycle? Yeah, she does. Okay,
I like her a lot. So her name is Sanae Takachi,
Japan's first female. So look, she also was interested
in purging. of some of the immigration issues
they're having with the third -world Muslim influence
that are disrespecting the culture in Japan.
Where is that coming from? Immigration from where?
All over the planet. Philippines are big Muslim.
Well, I know Indonesia is as well. Yeah, so it
could be coming from there, probably from that
Pacific. I didn't know. That was one of the platforms.
I did not know. They were struggling with a Muslim
immigration issue. Yeah, it's... For me, it kind
of sucks just to say this. I know, it sounds
kind of shitty. It does, but there's a... And
like we've spoke many podcasts, there are 80
% of those folks out there are super peaceful,
no issues going on. Of course. But at the end
of the day, it doesn't fucking matter. There's
still 20 % out there that aren't. Right. And
there are people out there that live off the
system. And that's true in any kind of, well,
it doesn't matter. Like you go to Sweden, you
know, they're taking advantage, even in the United
States, the immigrants take advantage of the
shit that we're offering them. It doesn't matter.
I don't care if they're Muslim or not. You know,
but it just seems like, that seems to be like
the main, the main faction of people that are
coming in. Yeah. You know. Find me, I want a
video of her drumming. Find me a video. I want
to see how good she is. We can gauge this. I
don't know. Okay, she's sitting on a Kawasaki,
not an Indian, so that might have been fake news.
I want to see an actual Indian motorcycle. Zoom
in on that. Can you? That's a Kawasaki. See?
What about the one on the left? It's a Kawasaki.
See? Unbelievable. These are lies. Can you think?
Maybe they have Kawasaki's in Japan. I don't
know. Kawasaki. Yeah, they do. But you said she
was an Indian motorcycle rider. That matters
to me. Well, that's what. There she is. Wait.
She has expressed admiration for Margaret Thatcher
and has been seen by as an Iron Lady figure.
There we go. We have a video of her drumming.
Is that Karen Carpenter? Oh, that's backwards
for one thing. Okay, I like her a lot. She's
playing with the devil, apparently. That is AI.
Is it really? There's no way. Did you see that
demon? It was wheels off. Well, plus she was
played backwards. She's considered a hard -lined
conservative, and her leadership signals a potential
shift to the right in the Japanese politics.
I like it. Well, good for her. Good for her.
So she graduated. So Takachi was born in Naira
Prefecture and graduated from Coby University
before her political career. She worked as an
author, legislative aide, and broadcaster. She's
held multiple government positions, including
minister for internal affairs and communications.
Good for her. How old is she? Fifteen. Hundred.
Wow, that's a big range. Really, really big range.
Asians naturally look way younger than they actually
are, and she does not look young. So you're leaning
towards 100? I'm saying she's got to be in her
late 60s, early 70s. That's what I'm saying.
Her and Trump are big, big buds. Okay, well,
that's cool. I just want to know how old she
is. That's all. Because this is actually huge
for Japan to have its first female. She's 64.
She's 64. That's not 100. That's good. So it's
somewhere in between 15 and 100. That's good.
About halfway between, yeah. Yeah, that's great,
guys. You guys really nailed it on the facts
tonight. I think I won, though. I didn't go over.
Damn it, Archer. That's great. I did say late
60s. I guess, damn it. Yeah. I had one year variance.
Yeah, you got it. You got it. No, I failed. How
do you say that, though? Daikachi? Takeichi.
Takeichi. Are you sure? You need to go to Wikipedia.
T -A -K -A -I -C -H -I, Takeichi. Go to Wikipedia,
click it. No. I'm right. Oh, boy. Well, no, she's
right. She's going to get ugly in a hurry here.
Is there, there's no, they're not going to be
able to pronounce it? No. Did you, did I send
you that? We may have talked about this. Did
I send you the graphic that shows where AI gets
the bulk of its information from? Yes, that was
terrifying. What is that from? I'm hoping that's
not real. They said, well, there's all these
sites, right? So the number one site that AI
goes to to research was Reddit. Number two was
Wikipedia. I don't think I believe that. What
about Grokopedia? It gets it from Wikipedia.
Yeah, but what about Grokopedia? But why would
we trust that? It was online. We trust everything
online. Oh, my bad. Oh, you didn't say online.
Okay, well, then, of course, it's real. Of course.
I'm sorry. I don't know. I said that. Jeff, I
apologize. Yeah, so whether it's real or not,
I hope it's not real. Yeah, that would be stupid.
It would completely discredit AI in its entirety
if everything came from Reddit. Reddit is a cesspool.
It's a cesspool. It's angry people just dogging
on people. All right, so hey, one more thing
about Japan. I wanted to ask your opinion about
this. We all know how people react to the Nazi
swastika. During World War II, that was their
flag. That was their war flag. You mean the rising
sun? I'm asking about that. So I saw a sticker
on the back of a car that was the Japanese war
flag, the rising sun. What does their flag look
like today? Oh, it's white with a red circle
in the middle. During the war, their war flag.
Because remember, when you go to war, you have
a war flag. We really didn't have that, though.
That is their war flag. Oh, yeah. Yes, yes, yes.
Yes, with the stripes coming out of the sun in
the white background. So I saw that as a bumper
sticker. And I'm thinking to myself, you know
what? For some veterans that fought in World
War II, that's like a swastika. Yeah, I can see
that. That's like a German war flag. But it's,
of course, the Japanese war flag. How did you,
how's that register with you guys? Well, I mean,
you got to ask yourself, why is it there? Yeah.
Why are they posting that? Are they making a
statement? Is it ignorance or what? I don't know.
It was kind of weird. I mean, if it's an old
dude driving the car and he's like, looks like
Miyagi and he's like, yeah, fuck you, man. So
click on that at the Wikipedia. What does that?
That one? Yes. What does it say about it? The
rising sun flag. Japanese flag consists of a
red disc, 16 rays emanating from the disc, rising,
symbolizes the sun. It was adopted as the war
flag of the Imperial Japanese Army. In 1889.
Oh, okay. So it's always been their Japanese
war flag. Okay, well, I mean, does that make
it less offensive? Well, does the American flag
offend the Japanese, if you see it over there?
We're the victors. Wow. And the good guys. That
doesn't matter. They still could hate us. I mean,
the Democrats don't like the American flag. I
know. So this doesn't hold, like the Nazi flag
does not hold the same. So it doesn't have the
same, okay, that's a great point. It doesn't
have, it's not a symbol of hate. Correct. In
your opinion. In my opinion. I think it looks
kind of cool too. So it's not a symbol of hate.
I mean, I'm not going to get a tattoo of it,
but. I don't think if someone was flying that,
you're thinking, oh, he's, you know, a Japanese
1942 sympathizer. Right? Right. Okay, fair enough.
It was just a question. But I saw it, and I was
like, dude. Well, it's kind of like the Confederate
flag. Right. A symbol of hate. A lot of people
see it as hate, but the folks who live in the
South say, well, it actually stands for this.
Heritage. A symbol of heritage. Correct. I get
it. I get it. I don't know. I was just curious
what you guys felt about it. It doesn't hold
the same weight for me personally than the Nazi
flag. Right. How about the swastika? You know
the unfortunate thing about the swastika? It
was hijacked. It was. Chinese, and I think Japanese,
temples have had swastikas, and I think it's
even a symbol of peace. It is. And unity and
tranquility. They used to build it into floors
and everything. Yes, because it's a beautiful
symbol in terms of its design, and they have
it on temples. that are thousands of years old.
So we need to bring back the swastika. Is that
what you're saying? No, I don't think that at
all. I do. I think we need to bring it back.
And I think we need to look. Well, good luck
with that. Just make it like a bright pink or
something. No, listen, if you don't have, it
doesn't have to be negative. Don't put like a
red outline how the Germans do their flight like
that. Just don't do it. That's perfect analogy
right there on the screen. I don't think it'll
matter because you see people who find this symbol
and just like pushes and they freak out. They
wig out over Pete Hex's Christian tattoos. They're
going to wig out over your swastika. Yeah, but
that's just because of Jewish propaganda. Yeah,
but the symbol has been hijacked. And you know
the other symbol that's been hijacked, unfortunately,
is the rainbow. It has been hijacked. It's horrible
because that is - The same thing. You need to
reintroduce it. In the Christian religion, that
is a symbol of God's promise, covenant, the covenant
that he'll never flood the earth again. The rainbow.
How about a symbol of life? What the hell, man?
It's the spectrum of colors on the planet. They
didn't earn that. And now it's been completely
hijacked. If I put a sticker of a rainbow on
the back of my car, what are you guys going to
say? That's your not enjoying a heterosexual
lifestyle. Right. But you know what? That's like
Judy Garland and Wizard of Oz movies. But you
know what? I hate that. Yes, they co -opted it,
but I also think that it's being trumped by this
new flag they have out there with all the tranny
browns and blues. Which is like their Easter
color. Yeah, I think. That's old school. They've
moved on. That's what I mean. They've moved on
to something else where I think. Yes, it still
stands for the pride and all that, but I think
it's moving away. It's not inclusive enough,
Paul. Yes. Right. Right. I have seen bumper stickers
that says it has a rainbow and it says promise
not pride. I like that. I personally like that
because I do think it's sad. That's fantastic.
Yeah. It says promise not pride. Anyway, and
it's not to dog on homosexuals. I'm just this
is in the context of symbols that are. that are
not hateful or, you know, I don't know. I don't
know. So the swastika. Symbols mean a lot. So
when you say swastika, that is a German word,
right? I guess so. I don't know the... There's
different words for it. So, I mean, I think,
like the producer had up on there, I wouldn't
care. Because, I mean, if you think about it,
there are buildings currently right now all over
the United States that are built like a swastika.
Right. Well, no, no. That had that symbol. Of
course, it's not tilted, but that had that symbol.
Well, of course. You look down on it, you know?
You mean as an upright? No, no, no. Tilted in
that the design is typically in Chinese temples
and stuff, it's lateral. I meant like in the
United States, business buildings that had four
wings and to make them fit and functional within
a... circuit of a city block, it's functional
to be in that design. Oh yeah, I get it. I remember
when the Republican National Committee had their
platform. was accused of being a swastika? Yes.
I was like, oh, come on. Because it's just ramps
connected. Yes. Okay, we've gone crazy about
trying to read into the symbolism. That's what
I mean. These people find the swastika in everything
because it's a natural shape. It is a natural
shape. And they find it and they get offended
over the bush or the hedges. Well, isn't there
even a Democratic politician that has the...
Can you bring that up? He's got a tattoo. He's
got a tattoo on his chest that apparently he
got when he was in the military as a young man.
Yes. Now he is being demonized. He's being torn
up for being an idiot for not knowing that that's
a swastika. Platner. And I'm like, wait a second.
Let's take a look at this. Yeah. Now he covered
it up. Yeah. With an owl. He covered it up. But
what was the original? Do they have a picture
of the original tattoo? Okay, so it's the same
skull and crossbones that the Nazi SS has. Oh,
so it's not a swastika. No, not in that, but
it is 100 % a... Oh, there it is. Okay, so on
this picture here. Show me that. So he covered
it up with that other thing. Oh, great. Oh, you
have to pay money. Are we willing to pay money?
Is it a Democrat or a Republican? It's a Democrat.
Oh, Graham Platner, is that what you said? And
he's like way ahead, apparently, in the polls.
Okay, I don't want him to lose because of the
bullshit about his tattoo. He was a young man.
He probably had no idea what the tattoo was about.
Oh, please, it's been on your body for that long
and you don't know what the hell it is? Okay,
well... My point is... Don't give me that crap.
My point is let's not be... That's Democrat talking
point crap. Well, I just want to be... I don't
want to be petty. This skull and crossbones is
a Nazi... He also has... Do you think so? Well,
he also has some recent... Some posts that have
been quite... Controversial. Controversial and
bad. All right. All right, let's kill him. Well,
we can't talk like you. He said he's unaware
of the Symbols Nazi Association when he got it.
He later stated that he had the original tattoo
covered up with a new one, and then Plattner
also sought to distance himself from the old
offensive Reddit post that they were reported
by the press around that same time. Yeah, where
he called police officers bastards and rural
white Americans racist. So, yeah, he's a great
guy. Yeah, let's just elect him. Sure. I get
it. I get it. This is freaking me out. We say
stupid shit as young people. Oh, I say stupid
shit right now, but I mean, it's not... True.
But the thing is, is that this... You're not
running for office. Well, not now, but, you know,
I mean, I may. Oh, not with this podcast. Well,
I mean, I don't really care. No, I'm kidding.
We... There needs to be, we have to have change.
If we don't change what we got going on now,
we're destined to fail. Period. I mean, we're
not in a good direction right now. Right. Well,
hold on. How does that relate to the guy that
had a tattoo? This guy, he's riddled with issues.
Oh, well, if you want to talk about that, the
bigger issue, the bigger story is Mom Donnie.
Is he going to fucking win? Is he going to win?
I think he's going to win. His lead's down to
10 points, I hear. It was at 30, then it was
20, now it's down to 10. You know what? It would
be like there's faith in humanity. So here's
the buzz that I understand. There's faith in
intelligence if he doesn't win. What they're
saying is that the Democrats plan to go out there
and vote. But the buzz is that the Democrats
that go out there and vote aren't going to vote
for him. If push comes to shove, they would rather
vote for the Republican than this guy. Cuomo?
Cuomo is the Democrat. Silva. Silva is the Republican.
Sliwa? Yes, Curtis Sliwa. Oh, Sliwa. I'm sorry.
I thought it was Silva. No, Sliwa. You know what?
He's kind of a lunatic, too, in my opinion. But
he's kind of a typical New York guy. You've got
to pick your battles on that one. But they're
going to split the vote is the problem. Yeah.
Yes. Well, what are you saying? With the Republican?
Sliwa and Cuomo will split the vote, which means
Bundani has a better chance of winning. And they
wanted Sliwa to drop out for that reason. He
said that someone offered him $10 million to
drop out. He's not doing it. And he said no.
He needed 53. Well, he's a man of principle.
He started the Guardians or whatever it's called.
Yeah, he wears the beret. Oh, yeah. So when you
guys say he's got some screws loose, what are
you referring to? Do you ever watch him talk?
Which one? Yeah, he's been on... Silva? Gutfeld
a lot of times. Yeah, I've seen him several times.
I've never really got that feeling about him.
I've never seen him talk, so I don't know. Screws
loose. So he sounds weird? No, I'm just, from
what I'm gathering from this conversation we're
having, he's... Well, put it this way, I don't
really care because he's in New York, so... Right.
Well, I care because it's a trend. That will
disperse throughout the United States. And that's
actually the next on point. And Philadelphia
is next on the list. Well, I think Cuomo has
a better chance of winning than Sliwa does. Things
I have read is that if Mamdani wins, there is
a groundswell of the psycho left, hardcore psycho
left. I think that will embolden them. That will
work in New York. Some California folks. It's
not going to work in a lot of these states. I
agree. So I don't see this as a precursor to
the socialists taking over the United States.
I agree. I don't think it's going to happen.
Maybe not. But it's a waste of effort and resources.
It's a scary trend. I'll say that. One is not
a trend. We'll see. I hope not. I agree. I hope
not. It's not a trend. It's 100 % not a trend.
But what is a trend? Is the following. Well,
because... That's what I mean. Well, because
Bernie... Bernie is a socialist. Bernie's been
a socialist for how long? He didn't cause any
spread. Yeah, but he's an old white guy. But
he's been doing it for years. He wasn't always
old. AOC... AOC is gaining steam. She's a spot
to pay for. And the squad, she's not really gaining
steam. Outside of New York, she's not. She's
a fool. She's an absolute fool. fool. She's also
going to be a presidential candidate in 28. That's
what I'm talking about. She does not appeal to
people outside of New York. It doesn't matter.
It's all about money. The craziness of AOC being
a presidential candidate is completely bonkers.
How old do you have to be to 36? Is she 36 yet?
I don't know. That's a good point. Then why are
they talking about her being a... She must be.
I don't know. I don't know how old she is. She's
36 right now. Oh, shit. She's 36 right now. Oh,
snap. Look at those teeth. There's no stopping
her. Look at those lips. She'll stop herself.
I'm not worried about her. I'm not worried about
her either. I am. Yeah, I mean, it's scary. You
start promising free buses, free health care,
free shit. Yeah, but who's going to pay for the
buses? They don't care. They don't care who pays
for it. They just know it's free. I see this
as if he wins, it's going to be a failure. And
people are going to go. I agree with Jeff on
this. I didn't get my free stuff. It didn't go
as he said. My EBT card didn't gain any interest.
I mean, I didn't get any extra money. I think
this will be problematic for New York. And outside
of that, I don't think it's going to have much
sway. So there's two camps. There's your camp
that says, let's let them fail. It's going to
be great for the Republican Party. It's going
to make it. That used to work. It's going to
bolster people to go, obviously, that's a failed
idea. And then there's the other camp that says,
if you even give these people a platform of free,
free, free, free, free, that's going to spread
like wildfire because this country is whacked
in the head right now. I go back to there's nothing
free. And by the way, when I say spread across
the country, I'm talking about in every metropolitan
area. How long is the mayor? Those are the blue
bastions of this country. How long is the term
of the mayor in New York City? I don't agree.
Was it four years? A hundred years. So the term
of the mayor, here's my fear. Is it four or six
years? Is that like even in New York City right
now, what are they trying to do with the Muslim?
They're trying to create this police force. All
right? I mean, him having influence over that
kind of stuff, is he going to be able to fixate
on conditioning? certain things to make happen
that's going to have influence on the way Sharia
law may be imposed in that area? Probably. Absolutely.
Because he had his birthday and he flew over
to Uganda and he had some sort of powwow down
there. Why is he there? I mean, it's none of
my business. I don't give a fuck. He's from Uganda,
isn't he? Is he? He's from there. Oh, well, that's
why. Parents came over. I didn't know that. There
you go. Mystery solved. He can't be president,
which is good news. Unless they change it. Well,
okay. I'm not worried about this guy. I think
it will be. Again, it doesn't impact me, and
I don't think it will impact me. It's an interesting
experiment. It's an experiment that I think,
because what he's going to do, he's anti -capitalist.
These huge corporations that are in New York.
In the bastion of capitalism. They're going to
be leaving. The way he wants to pay for this
is to tax those companies. They're all going
to leave. Who's going to pay for all this free
shit that he wants to do? Yeah, they're all going
to Florida, by the way. They've already said
it. It's a great lesson. I agree. It's a great
lesson. I think you learn by these waves of influence
that happen and people start planting these seeds.
Yeah, this one's going to grow shit. Yeah, it
will. I don't want it to happen. Guys, look at
Canada. Look at Australia. Look at Great Britain.
Look at all those places. Germany. In order to
be happy. Do you think those places would be
like this now? No. Australia, Great Britain,
Canada. Yeah, but this is how it started. That's
what I'm saying. Yeah, that's my fear. This is
the trend that I'm referring to is that that's
how they started. But Great Britain, they've
always been kind of butt nuggets when it comes
to free speech. Well, I also think it's easier
to turn a country of that size with a bunch of
immigrants than they tried to do it with Biden,
right? There's 300 plus million people here.
You're going to have to send in a lot of folks
to sway the voting. You can do it in pockets.
They tried doing it last year. Like 26 million.
That's not enough. Those are kids. That's a bunch.
And they're all not guaranteed to vote one way.
Yeah, in 10 years, they're going to multiply.
And again, they're not guaranteed to vote one
way. Now, there's pockets of this that you're
going to see. They've taken over England. Yes.
They've taken over some of these other countries
because they're smaller. You import a million
people into one of those countries. It makes
a big impact. It makes a big impact. You can't
do that as easily over here. It's scary. Plus,
I think the American... Backbone is a lot harder
than the French or the British, in my opinion.
I think the American citizen, we work our asses
off. I don't know how these other countries do
it, but I'll tell you, these immigrants that
come into these other countries, they don't work
hard. They suck on the teat of the government
of everywhere they go. They have no work ethics.
The United States citizens, we work our asses
off. We go on very little vacations, most of
us. That's not always true. We fund the rest
of the planet. It's fair. I mean, prior to Trump
getting into office, we were funding NATO. We're
funding all the stupid shit all over the planet.
And there's all kinds of nefarious bullshit between
the CIA, Israel, and Rothschild. You know, all
this weird shit going all over the planet to
try to control that weird ether out there. Yeah.
Have you guys heard about what's happening in
the trucking industry as it comes to illegal...
trucking industry. There's another big accident.
Okay, so that's what started the awareness about
what's going on in the trucking industry is these
wrecks, right? We have these illegal aliens driving
trucks. They don't under they they somehow got
went through a streamlined program to get their
CDLs in California. Right. That was watered down.
They can't even they don't they can't read English.
They don't speak English. They don't know the
roadsides. And they're having these wrecks that
are killing Americans. Right. Well, then I read
a story today that had to do with a CEO of a
trucking company. Because they're living in the
trucks. They're living in the trucks, meaning
they have no house. They have no family. They're
all young men. There's no mailing address. No
mailing address. They're totally illegal. They're
getting their CDLs kind of illegally, even though
California says no. They are completely undercutting
what they charge. And so it's destroying the
trucking industry for American small businesses.
And remember, a lot of these guys are in business
for themselves. Independent contractors that
are... And you know how the trucking industry
is. They're going to give it to the lowest bidder.
Each haul. Oh, yeah. And so this CEO is like,
where are these loads going to? It happened during
COVID where everything shut down. And they were
like, oh, okay. COVID killed us, but it's going
to come back. But it didn't. He said it didn't
come back, and they're trying to figure out why.
Well, it's because all these illegals have flooded
into the trucking industry, and they are undercutting
all the American drivers. Fuck! What the hell,
man? How do you get rid of them? You got to start
deporting them like the rest of the ice shit
that's going on. They need to do a better job
introducing them into their licensing. I mean,
why are they driving the truck? California's
going to shut that shit down. So these folks
that are driving these trucks that are taking
over these contracts, I mean, do they own their
own trucks? Who's funding the trucks? I don't
know the answer to that. So, I mean, that is
the question. Who's funding the trucks? Because
if it's like some sort of... They might be leasing
it themselves. It could be, but who are they
leasing them from? Somebody owns these trucks,
so is it like a third party country? There's
got to be a check somewhere that they can get
caught. Whether they're being hired by a trucking
company that's not doing their due diligence,
doing a background check, or these illegals are
leasing from some company who's not doing their
due diligence, or someone's giving them a bunch
of money to buy a truck. So this fall on Sean?
Puffy Combs, the transportation. Duffy. Duffy.
No, no, no. You're right. Okay. And that's a
great lead in because of the, I mean, you know,
you always want something good to happen from
a bad incident. But because of these wrecks that
are getting so much, you know, so much attention.
Right. Duffy has stepped up. He's listening to
the trucking industry leaders. And now they're.
uh demanding that all trucking companies uh verify
that every single one of their drivers have gone
through whatever checks immediately yep he already
instituted that he's already instituted that
uh california he's gone into california and made
sure that they're not you know circumventing
this and that and this so i think i think these
wrecks these these you know, horrible incidents
where families are being killed by truckers who
have no fucking idea what they're doing. Did
you see the latest one where the guy just doesn't
stop and just cranks cars and smashes accordions
on them? Yes, yes. It's like, what the fuck?
He was, was he drunk? I think he was drunk. Yeah,
he was under the influence. He was a turban wearing,
sorry, I shouldn't go. Well, hold on, he was
wearing a turban. Yeah, okay, but my point is,
I mean, it doesn't matter what he looked like.
It doesn't matter what he looked like. He was
from India. Right, and he, boom, boom, boom,
killed a bunch of people. Anyway, so I think
there's some good things coming up in terms of
correcting the problem. Well, the trucking industry
is all connected because I'm part of that. When
you have a CDL, you become part of that. There's
a big clearinghouse. And I'm sure there's even
more connections once you get up to the, was
it Class A? Yeah. So there's a clearinghouse
where that monitors all of your driving record.
So if you get a ticket, like if I'm driving,
like if I was driving out in Washington, D .C.,
and I got a speeding ticket, it would appear
on this clearinghouse, and my employer could
pull it and see it. Yes. Yes. And so they need
to rely on these databases and verify that they're
doing their verification. Or if I fail a drug
test, boom, it's on this clearinghouse. But some
of these truck drivers out there, the ones that
have these immigrants coming in, these illegal
aliens that are coming in and acquiring these
licenses that are living in the trucks. And there's
two, maybe even three in a truck. You know, when
you get an extra large cabin in there. I don't
know. Some of those guys don't have licenses.
They're kind of like, hey, you know. Can you
take over? Yes, take over. Drive for the next
four hours. Oh, shit. That's not good. And you
see them in the videos. Oh, that's not good.
There was one guy, the Turbomart guy that you
were talking about, where he did a U -turn and
then the family crashed into him, two cars. That
was a different one. But still, the guy that
was sitting in the passenger seat didn't have
a license. So why is he in the truck? Are they
allowed to have passengers that aren't driving?
Yeah, but why is he in the truck? I mean, hey,
Paul, do you want to drive across the country
with me? No, Sean, I don't have a CDL. Not just
that, but I mean, no, Sean, I have a life. I
have a job. I've got shit going on. Why is that
person in the car? The only function for them
to be in the car, unless they're going from point
A to point B, or they're having some sort of
camaraderie for some stupid reason. That's not
stupid. Camaraderie's good. But it is to be an
alternative driver. What if you owned a truck
and you're like, hey, man, I'm going to cross
country. Paul, come on. Let's go. Let's go on
a road trip. I mean, if you were single and didn't
have any responsibilities or obligations. Like,
why is he in the truck? Maybe. Could be. I know.
I'm fucking with you. I know. And that may be
the exact reasons why some of these immigrants
kind of gather together. It's like these guys.
You know, they all hang out together. Look, I
don't want to throw stones at the individuals.
I want to throw stones at the infrastructure
that allowed those individuals to do what they
did. The systemic abuse and problems. Hey, do
one more favor. Chuck, look up monkey truck crash
now that we're talking about truck crashes. Monkey
truck crash? It happened today. And I think there's
something to this. Were there a bunch of monkeys
that were released? Yes. Here we go. Oh, yeah,
yeah. Okay. Hepatitis C, herpes, and COVID. So
truck -carrying monkeys? Yes. Experimental monkeys.
Oh, this was on purpose. Is this how the Planet
of the Apes thing started? Yes, exactly. Is it
really? I don't know. You guys tell me. The rhesus
monkeys. So the truck -carrying monkeys with
hepatitis C, herpes, and COVID crashes into Mississippi.
One's still missing. One's still missing. One
is missing. And didn't one get out in Planet
of the Apes? It started this whole thing? I think
you're thinking of outbreak, but yeah. Well,
I think all these are fairly common in America.
I think most folks have herpes and hepatitis
C, and everyone's had COVID. I've never had COVID.
Yeah, but these were experimental monkeys, Jeff.
Oh, yeah, but is it some weird strain of herpes?
Yes, it makes them super smart. Herpes. Simplex
82. Come on, let's not fuck around here, guys.
This is a super smart monkey on the run here.
And I don't think this ends well. Those movies
always creep me out with the monkeys and how
human -like their eyeballs are. I know, yeah.
They look at you and you're like, geez, you could
really see what's going on. Yeah, the special
effects have gotten a little bit better since
the original movie. Very creepy. Right? Planet
of the Lambs is funny. I mean, I like the old
video, the movies. I enjoyed it. The little drill.
They were inside some drill capsule. Was that
Charlton Heston? It was Chuck Heston. Yeah. Chuck
Heston. Silent Green is people! Silent Green
is people! But the fact that, you know, they
come out of the earth and boom, they land like
some mud muddle in a puddle of mud and they get
out and all of a sudden... I freaking watched
the hell out of it. That was fantastic. And don't
you see, was it in the beginning or the end where
the Statue of Liberty is sitting on the beach?
That's at the end. That's at the end. And then
you're like, oh, my God. Spoiler alert. That
was America. It's in the future. Spoiler alert.
Yeah, the Statue of Liberty is here to stick
it out. Also, spoiler alert. Was it? Yeah, we
didn't know that. Thanks, Paul. Was it in the
future or was it an alternative Earth? Spoiler
alert. Just a different movie, though. Speaking
of Statue of Liberty, did you hear something
about them wanting to re -polish it and make
it glow again? Yeah, good luck with that. Ooh,
make it all gold -looking? Make it all coppery?
Yeah. That'll last a week. I was going to say,
why do that? They'll be like, oh, it looks so
gaudy. Oh, God, what are they doing to the Statue
of Liberty? Oh, my God, I love that green. I
love that it was green. It's going to turn green
instantaneously. It will. Yeah, fast. It's right
there on the sea. It's turning green. Well, hold
on. Is that a real thing? Somebody wants to shine
it? That's what they were talking about. Is that
a Trump thing? It's definitely not a Trump thing.
We already know he's destroying the White House.
Oh, that's so stupid. Okay, can we talk about
that? Is it the most... asinine thing ever? It's
the East Wing. It's not the White House. They
are losing their mind. It is so easy to prove
that this is not unprecedented. It looks bad
because now we have social media and everyone
has a camera, but this is not unprecedented.
All these presidents have done this. Yes, but
it's not the White House. It's the East Wing
that is directly above a bunker. I mean, there's...
Yeah, if you look at the... Mr. Producer put
a... They're making fun of Obama's... Yeah, if
Obama was in charge of the East Coast. Oh, that
is the... His library is ugly. Have you... Okay.
Okay. I know this is a little left turn, but
can you find the Star Wars... That one there.
Click on that one. It is a terrible... That one
there, yeah. See, that's what's getting demolished
right there. Yeah. That tiny little part? Yes.
Yes. I knew it was retarded that they're getting
all upset about this, but I didn't realize it
was that insignificant. Yeah, to me, from here,
it looks like it's like 25, 30 by 150. You know
what this is? It's a reminder that the people
criticizing Trump, the whole derangement syndrome,
they're not serious. They're not serious people.
They're liars. They're not. They're liars. Oh,
there we go. And they're a joke. There you go,
the Death Star on the East Wing. No, no, no.
Show Obama's presidential library, and no, no,
no. Do a search on it, not with the White House,
because you guys will love this. Is it a real
presidential library? Oh, it's ugly as shit.
Oh, they're making fun of his presidential library,
and they are doing memes with it, and Sean, you
are going to love them. Look at that. That is
ugly. That's it. That's real. That's ugly. Now
show the memes. And it's run out of money, I
think. Yeah, but... The gray skull. Yep. That's
one of them. Show the Star Wars memes. Come on.
They're great. Yeah, it doesn't... There's nothing
really elegant about it. No, it's awful. Yeah,
so there's a... This is basically a... A rectangular
tube coming out of the ground that's got some
different angles going. It kind of reminds me
of part of that science building downtown Dallas.
Oh, the Perot? It's got a bunch of different
angles, but there's nothing elegant about it.
Did you look up memes? There we go. It does kind
of look like the Jawa transport. Well, there's
ones that have like TIE fighters, and it looks
great, but I don't know why they're not showing
up. Look. Oh, they were really good. Whatever.
I think the whole, they're just, they want something
to bitch about. It doesn't matter what it is.
And I caught myself into, this past weekend,
I was on Facebook. Did you get sucked in? I got
sucked into a couple different things. It was
one meme, one thing with this group, and I told
the guys, like, look. No disrespect, but if you
really want to talk about these issues, just
come to our podcast and talk on it. Who did you
say this to? Some random guy that was talking
about something. Because he lives here in the
Dallas -Fort Worth area. I was like, look, we'll
just have a conversation about it. Yeah, we're
respectful. We'll debate. And I wasn't on the
Dudes Like Us podcast. That was my own one. But
I just tagged the Dudes Like Us podcast. Just
come on, sit down and talk with us. We just want
to chat about it. Let's really talk about it.
Let's really figure out where the disconnect
is. At the end of this conversation, we'll figure
out that. We'll agree to disagree on a lot of
things, but we agree on tons of stuff. We agree
on tons of stuff across the board. It's just
the little tiny things. You guys want to give
away money to help people out more than we do.
And I guarantee you, if they had the balls to
come in here and sit down with us, we would completely
treat them with respect. Did he just blow you
off? A hundred percent. Why would I waste my
time going on your little podcast? I was like,
little? Oh, so he's an old man. I don't know
what he is. I didn't mean to really dive into
it, look into it, but it was just, you know,
the spirit of the conversation was... What has
this administration done to enrich our lives
at this point? And I was like, well. This one?
Yeah. I was like, well, he's been in office for
10 months. And, you know, it's taken quite some
time to turn the ship around. Not really. Dude,
he's done. Well, I listed them. I listed them.
I had like seven, eight. bullet points. I was
like, he's done all this. He was like, yeah,
but how has that enriched our lives? I was like,
dude, you're planting seeds for our future. It's
not about right now. If you want to do right
now, I mean, how much does gas cost right now?
Eggs. Eggs are down right now. There's a lot
of tons of stuff down. They can't answer to any
of that stuff. All they want to do is, and I
even said, I tried to be as respectful as possible
by not... Listen, Democrats, Republicans in there.
And I was just like, you guys just want to banter
in this silly, ugly echo chamber that you guys
created. I was just like, I don't have time for
it. I'm done. But you know my issues? I don't
care about the president enriching my life. I
care about the president getting policy for the
country in the right direction. You know what
I mean? Yeah, that's basically what I said. Yeah,
this is... I'm not... I'm not about what can
you do for me as the president. Well, that's
the mindset. They want the government to take
care of them. How is the government taking care
of me? Dude, John F .K. said it best. Ask not
what the country could do for you. Ask what you
could do for your country. I want the spending
to get under control. I want the debt to stop
ballooning out of control. I want politicians
to start making decisions that are right for
the country, not for themselves. I want term
limits. You know what I mean? These things that
matter. Yeah. What do you think is going to happen
on November 1st when the EBT gets cut way down?
Oh, my God. It's going to be ballistic. Oh, good.
Fuck them, man. The EBT. So you're talking about
the food stamps, which 43 million people are
on. Yes. 43 million people. And it's highly abused.
And it's largely illegal immigrants. Yeah, well,
that and plus they've done this in phases. Like
one of the first phases was they limited what
the EBT car can purchase. And that was like the
first phase. So people are going up to these.
I can't buy my electronics anymore. Well, electronics,
the sugary foods was more over what they were
kind of referring to. Well, I also saw footage
of some lady trying to buy like headphones or
something. She's like, no. This was after that
went into effect. She's like, well, I used to
be able to buy this stuff. Well, you can't buy
that stuff now. She was having a fit. Oh, my
God. She was having a fit with it. Ridiculous.
Ridiculous. Yeah. I was seeing something that
talked about the number of Afghan, Pakistani.
It listed four different Somalia and Haiti were
the four countries. And they said of the immigrants
from those countries, it was listing the percentages.
Where they're on the food stamps. It was huge.
And it was huge. Well, I mean, it was 53, 53
down to like 43 % for each of like each, all
of them. And they were like, this is crazy. This
is crazy. It's a lifestyle system was designed
for, you know, it's a lifestyle. When you have
a multifamily dwelling that lives in a single
apartment, right. You know, and, and you have.
five families, whatever, making that up, living
in a single apartment, and all of them are collecting
food stamps? Well, shit, man, you've got enough
food for everybody for quite some time. I heard
on one of the talk shows on the radio that a
lady was complaining that she has six kids and
she gets $5 ,000 a month in EBT. She gets, I
think she said she gets $1 ,500 a month in rent
control help, and she gets $300. and utility
help, and there was something else, and they
did the math. That's like $68 ,000 right there.
Well, there was something else, and it came to
almost $10 ,000 a month. Oh, my God. And they
were like, she's making almost six figures doing
nothing. That's ridiculous. Doing nothing. That's
insane. Spreading the legs. Wow. Well, the more
kids you have, the more money you get. But it's
indoctrinated right now in some of these cultures
inside the cities. Well, no. It's a financial
strategy. Like $5 ,000 for six kids. And then
they go make cash, send that home, go buy a house
they can retire to, and move back there when
they're done. It's broken. I have no problem.
We'll see what the remittances look like. I don't
have a problem with food stamps. It's there for
help, like unemployment. You need it. You need
it when you need it, but it's being abused. There's
a shit ton of fraud that needs to be cleaned
up, but it's painful because you have these people
going, what am I going to do now? What am I going
to do? How am I going to feed my kids? I'm not
going to get my $5 ,000. $5 ,000 in food stamps.
That's the part that's difficult is that the
influx of immigration that has come into the
country has limited the jobs that are available
for some of these folks. Well, this was some
New York lady. They're all over the United States.
This was not an immigrant. No, I'm not saying
specifically the people that were collecting
the food stamps. I'm saying that because of the
influx of the immigrants that the... There's
limited jobs out there. When the Biden administration
let in over 20 million undocumented or illegal
aliens, what did you think was going to happen
to the welfare situation? Well, it got out of
control. Yeah, they got lied to that there was
going to be, oh, come up to America. There's
going to be plenty of opportunities. You're going
to get a job and everything's going to be great.
And they come in and they're like. Oh, shit.
It's like this fucking utopia, you know? Yeah,
it's like, what the fuck? I'm screwed. Yeah,
and you know what? There are some people that
were making statements in Chicago when they lived
their first year enduring winter. They were like,
yeah, I'm out. I'm going back, you know, because
I'm checking out. You know, and look, I want...
immigrants to come to the united states the right
we need immigrants to come in here legally we
do and but the thing is is that we have set things
up before things got out of hand as a as a system
of lottery so that people will uh what is it
they submit their application to come to the
united states and they're selected through a
lottery Right. You know, they review them and
they're like, all right, well, you know, we need
the finest people to be in our country. Yeah.
You know, we want the finest people, the people
that want to succeed, the people that are going
to be happy, the people that promote the United
States policies. We are allowed to be selective.
Did you watch 1923, that Yellowstone spinoff?
Harrison Ford, right? Yeah. Did you watch all
of it? Yes, I think so. Did you see when she
was sitting at Ellis Island being interviewed
to enter the United States, the question she
was being asked, and he was like, why do we need
someone like you in our state? You offer nothing.
Right. What can you do? 100%. What can you do
for America? Right. That's what they used to
be asked. What can you do for America to better
us? That should be the litmus test of any country
on the planet. If we're letting you in from somewhere
else, how do you enrich? That was a TV show,
but that's the way it was back then. How do you
enrich our country? I haven't seen that. What
is that on? It's Paramount. Paramount. Yeah.
It was good. It was well done. Anyway, I'm going
to change it. Change the subject. Change it up.
I see a topic up there. I need someone to explain
it to me. It says Pulse Nude Volleyball. Yes.
Yes. What is that all about? I think it might
have been my - Imagination. My impairment. Yeah.
Oh. In terms of hearing. You just envision -
I think it was Pulse. New volleyball? Whoa. Not
nude? I just put it in Pulse Nude Volleyball
and Pornhub pulls up. Of course. Oh, amazing.
Well, that's because it's your cookie. No, it's
not. A couple of franchises are moving to Frisco.
The one is the Women's Volleyball League. It's
going to play at the Star Center. Oh, so that's
volleyball? Volleyball. Yeah, it's Women's Volleyball.
The name, the energy, the heartbeat of North
Texas. Dude, how crazy. You guys seriously want
to go watch Dallas Pulse Volleyball? I thought
it was like... indoor football or something.
I'm just announcing it as a news topic. You were
judging it one way or the other, man. You were
interested when he thought it was nude. Well,
okay. Yeah. I don't understand. These ladies
are professional volleyball players. They've
got a place to play now. I'm out. They can't
make any money. Okay. If we thought WNBA was
bad, they make nothing. Well, maybe they have
an exciting product. I don't know. Yeah, they
might. They're probably pretty good at it, too.
And then the second one is the Dallas Renegades
are moving up to Frisco. They're going to play
in Toyota Stadium. This is UFL. This is football.
The UFL, yeah. When is it kicking off spring?
Spring. Do they have tickets yet? Is it United
Football League? What is that? UFL. Yeah, United.
It used to be the XFL and the USFL, and they
kind of put them together. Like Bob Stoops is
a coach there, right? And it's kind of like the
training ground for future NFL people. That would
be fun to watch. Who might need a second chance.
How about your tickets? Click on that. See if
there's tickets available yet. I don't know.
Yeah, they're $140 a ticket. I'm sure they are.
They should be like $5, $10. Yeah, $2 .22. Comes
with a free hamburger. All right. And unlimited
beer. Well, this is last season. It doesn't matter.
We're bringing our own bourbon. Your bladder.
Oh, there's tickets. Yeah, hidden bladders allowed.
Dude, I'm not even bringing a bladder. I'm going
to be all. I'm carrying my satchel with a bottle
of something special. We would have so much fun,
but it would not be good. It would be absolutely
good. We'd just walk to the rail yard. Yes. It's
right there, too. It is right there. This is
not going to end well. What could possibly go
wrong? Let's just make sure we air tag you. Hey,
I don't do that anymore. Okay, let's keep that
trend up. Isn't that great? I don't just randomly
walk home from wherever I am. That's good. That's
a big step for me. All right. The deposit is
$50. I don't know how much the deposits are.
What is $50? The deposit. Just the deposit. Oh,
come on. They're doing PSLs? I don't know. Well,
view event info. What is that? Nothing. Nothing.
What is that? Is that the schedule on the top
right? It's not released yet. Okay. All right.
Well, that's at Toyota Stadium. Where is that
at? Is that the downtown? It's downtown. Yeah.
That's the soccer stadium. I'm intrigued. We
might have fun with that if it's economical.
That's the thing. I don't want to spend $200
on a fucking ticket for this thing. That's not
happening. Don't they have suites or stuff? They're
building suites now. That would be even more
expensive. For the World Cup. What? Seriously,
hear me out. If we get a group of 10 guys and
we'll have to just play it out. And it's only
$800 a piece. Well, I mean, how many games are
there? Five games. It's probably not much. No,
it's not much. I think there's eight. Yeah, but
I mean, if you get a suite for the event center,
doesn't that allow you to participate in all
events there? Who knows? Ten games and half of
them are away. So five games. Five games. Yeah.
It can't be that expensive. It can't be. Otherwise,
nobody would come. For the Dallas Cowboys Stadium.
I can't speak for the one in Arlington, but the
one in Irving, Texas, when it was there. You
know, when someone owned a suite, when they had
special events going on, concerts and stuff,
the people that owned those suites got to go
up to the suites and watch the concert for no
extra fee. Oh, I see. You know what I mean? Monster
truck pull. Whatever it is. I don't know. That's
why I'm saying it may be worth it. They do have,
but yeah, but the season's only 10 weeks. It's
only going to be good for those 10 weeks. Yeah,
but again, the Dallas Cowboys Stadium back then,
it's year -round. So it's 12 months. I don't
think they're going to do that here because you've
got the soccer. There's multiple teams in there.
I don't know. Yeah, and they're not affiliated,
right? Yeah, they're not affiliated. Oh, yeah,
those people actually owned those suites. Yes.
Yeah. We'll see. Hey, we'll look into it, and
we'll see what they have to offer. We'll be like,
hey, we're part of the Dudes Like Us podcast,
and we're all over the city. We have listeners
from every subdivision from here to the stadium.
Maybe we could do a podcast there. Maybe at the
nude volleyball. That's where we need to do ours.
The pulsing nude volleyball. Let's do it. Hey,
there are some deaths that we should recognize.
We do. We have to catch up on those because we
haven't had too many. Yeah, let's recognize those.
Those are important. First one is Nick Mangold,
who is kind of an Ohio State and Jets legend.
Yeah. 41 years old. Yep, good buddies with Brett
Favre. He passed away early, so, you know, kind
of a big man. He battled kidney disease, and
the really tragic part of this story is he could
not find a match. Like, you know, it's difficult
to find a kidney donor. Yeah. But, you know,
all of us can live with one kidney, right? And
so anybody can be really a donor unless you have
health issues. There's so many people out there
that probably were a match, but he couldn't find
anybody who was sad. Anyway, he passed away.
Yep. Anyway, moving on. Number two on the list
is June Lockhart. And you may recognize her from...
She was kind of juggy back in the day. Lost in
Space. She was kind of fetching. Why does everybody
have to be juggy? Do you see that trend, Sean?
She showed some cleavage. Well, I get it, but...
Hey, look, man, there's nothing wrong with respecting
what's going on around you. I mean, look, to
be judicious is something that should be respected.
God, you just made it worse. I mean, look, come
on. But she was 100. She made it to 100. She
was 100 years old. Yes, that's all. And now she
was the, not the Jetsons. God, can you imagine
carrying those fun bags around for 100 years
carrying those fun bags? The old Lost in Space
and Lassie. I guess the mom in Lassie, too. The
mom in Lassie. So how old was she there? 100.
Probably 100. She was 100 there. She looks fantastic.
Oh, I don't know what the picture was taken,
but yes, he lived to 100. No, she was 28 in that
picture. What an asshole. Man, Hollywood was
hard on her. All right. Somebody was. God, Jeff.
Next one's kind of a weird one. Doug Martin used
to be a Tampa Bay running back, and he died.
It's kind of sad. This lets you know that people
in the world... Super sad. People die. You know,
and sometimes you get an ailment and you just
can't get through it. No, no, no, no, no, no.
This was not an ailment. This is a horrible story
because he was a prominent running back during
his days. Oh, I thought that was the kidney guy.
And he was like hit hard times and was breaking
into somebody's home and was an intruder and
got shot by the homeowner. I don't think he got
shot. I think he had a health event. I thought
he died from a bullet wound. Are you being facetious?
No, no, no, I'm not. I'm not being facetious
at all. He died of a health event, maybe a stroke
or a... The mental illness proved to be... So
he was not an intruder? He was an intruder in
someone's house. The police got called. They
showed up, and he was having a health event at
the time. Oh, so he may not have been like...
He was breaking in. Yeah, but it says right here,
ultimately, the mental illness proved to be the
one appointment from which Doug could not run.
Man, that's awful. Are they kind of saying that
it's from football play, CTE kind of thing? Probably,
yeah. That probably led to his mental... which
led to the break -in, which led to... And that's...
That's what kind of happened with Marion Barber.
He killed himself, didn't he? Oh, shit. I didn't
know that. Yeah, he had some mental problems.
Dude, it's tough. Look, there's people that win
the lottery, and you know what? They... You get
all this influx of money. You got a lifestyle
and an entourage, perhaps. And then you don't
have the capability to sustain that anymore.
And all of a sudden, depression. This is head
trauma. This is head trauma. You saw how hard
Barry Barber played. Yeah, he was a battering
ram. This is mental illness caused by head trauma.
That's what this is. All right. Anyway, let's
get to the last one and move on to the... Moving
on. Pour one out for Porkins. What? William Hootkins.
Oh, he died? Yeah. No way. I remember all of
those characters. Yep. I do, too. But you don't.
William Hootkins. Well, not all of them. I remember
the Star Wars one. I know. They threw him in
there. They're like, let's get this buddy in
here. I absolutely remember the Star Wars one.
What are you going to call him? Porkins? Porkins.
Look up Porkins if you haven't already. I don't
remember. Oh, wow. Raiders of the Lost Ark. Yeah,
he's Indy. Yeah, and he's Buddy. Which wing was
he? Was he Blue Leader? Red Leader? I don't know.
He's just Horkins, right? Was he Gold Leader?
I remember him from Star Wars 100%. The other
ones, Batman and Raiders of the Lost Ark, I do
not. I remember the Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Oh, that's a tough one. That takes you quick.
Oh, man. Dallas. He's my age. A year older than
me. What did he die of? Played Rebel X -Wing
pilot Jerk Horkins in Star Wars New Hope. He
was not a leader. It says he died in 2005. Oh,
did he? No way. Oh, here we go. All right. Well,
why are they posting this on October 25th? Maybe
it was like an anniversary. Oh, there you go.
October 23rd. I was like, he was my age, but
he was born in 48. I was like, that math doesn't
align. He died right around the same time John
Candy died. Oh, okay. It must have been an anniversary,
yeah. That was your bonus? Was that the bonus
one on the board? That was the bonus one. Oh,
he's buried here in Dallas. We can go visit him.
Wow. Pour one out right on the grave. Yeah. You
think they got free hot dogs? We could reenact
the Death Star scene. Great. All right, let's
talk about this. All right, look, this is the
Rare Character Exceptional Series nine -year
single -barrel weeded bourbon. Retail on this
is $250, guys. Good lord. Yeah. Actually, I didn't
pay that much for it. These are very unique.
Well, each single barrel probably has its own
label, I would think. But, I mean, it was close.
It was like, I think it was $2 .32 or something
like that. It was still expensive. There's a
bird. Actually, I don't even remember. It doesn't
matter. This particular, I didn't look it up,
but this particular, look, this one's got some
funk going on. This one is a weeded bourbon.
It's, let me read the back here. There's some
oddities on this one. That's. Wheat? Yeah. I
don't know if it's my favorite. Of the rare characters.
It's different from the rest of the rare characters
because most of those other rare characters that
we've sampled are single malts. This one is a
weeded straight bourbon whiskey. It's 62 .78,
but then they turned around and said 125 .69.
Is that right? I guess that is right. 125 proof,
so almost 125 .5 proof. Very unique. It is. There's
something. I can't put my name on it. I'm thinking
it's got a hint of, I want to say smoked peat
in there. It's got like some sort of. I don't
pick any of that. Like Band -Aid. I mean, that's
kind of what I'm interpreting as smoked peat.
It's the Band -Aid taste. Band -Aid may make
sense to me. Because there's something odd in
there. It's not on the palate. It's mid palate
or whatever you want to call it. So, guys out
there, Rare Character has a variety of different
flavors. These guys go out, they procure these
barrels, and then they sell them. They'll procure
small batches of them. This particular one, barrel
number E -WB -3013. I have no idea if that's
what it actually says because, frankly, it looks
like a 30B. I don't know if it's a 30B or a 3013.
But it doesn't matter because none of you motherfuckers
are going to look it up anyways. But anyways.
The exceptional series, Rare Character. I like
it. It's got a great bite to it, but like Jeff
said, it's not indicative of what we normally
taste with Rare Character. It's very atypical.
No, atypical, period. Not just Rare Character.
It is not a single malt. This is a straight bourbon
whiskey. Is it straight? It's nine years. Where
does it say nine years on here, by the way? It
was on the screen. Oh, that might have been.
Look what it was distilled, 2015. I can't read
that, man. I need fucking eyeballs. It was distilled
October 5th, 2015. It was bottled February of
this year. All right, gentlemen. Time to rate
it. For what it is being 127 proof right up in
that range, it does have a great taste. It has
all the things that I would like to get from
Rare Character. If I were to line them up in
the Rare Character, to grade them from that perspective,
they would be lower on the Rare Character list.
But as far as 127 proof straight bourbon whiskey,
I think it's a cap. It's fantastic. I'm still
waiting for a rating. 8 -1. 8 -1? 100%. I'm about
6 -8 on this. I was going to go 7 -7. There's
something in there that I don't like. I can't
put my finger on it. I love it. I like it. I
like it a lot. And 7 -7 is a very high rating
for me. We need to talk about what's in it, though,
as far as the taste and what's going on with
it. It's thick. It's got a very, very rich taste.
It's very rich. And I'm enjoying it. And I think,
actually, if we were to taste this a little bit
longer, it may grow on you guys. I gave it a
7 -7. I love it. I drank a little bit more than
you guys. I don't know if you saw me pour that.
I did. It was a $250 bottle, and we second poured.
We need to talk about that. Yes, we do. Yeah.
Which part? You need to pour it back in. Jesus
Christ. Second half of the Dudes Like Us podcast.
It's October 28th. Hey, man, we appreciate you
guys listening to us. Hey, man, give us a shout.
We want to know what you guys think. Give us
some constructive criticism. Give us some topics
you want us to talk about. Hey, if it's not even
constructive criticism. So you guys are assholes.
Yeah, just tell us what you think. Well, that
brisket's dry as fuck. Okay, no. We're not talking
about dry brisket, you motherfucker. And by the
way, whoever wrote that, come see me. God bless.
Thank you, Chuck, for sitting on top of shit,
dudes like us. I'm Sean. I'm Paul. And I'm Jeff.
