Episode 201: From Big Ten Shockwaves To Pop-Tart Mascots: Chaos In College Football And Life
A shocker in the Big Ten flips our weekend on its head: Ohio State falls to Indiana, and we dive straight into how it happened. We break down the chess match in the trenches, why Indiana kept hammering the right side, and how red zone confusion turned short-yardage into missed chances. Credit where it’s due—Curt Cignetti has a plan and a program—but we also talk accountability, from who’s holding the play sheet to why your best players can’t be spectators when the game hangs on one drive.
From there, we zoom out to a bracket that feels equal parts merit and marketing. We debate Alabama vs. Notre Dame vs. Miami, the quiet power of bowl geography, and how “neutral” sites can become home games with nicer logos. We welcome chaos with a grin—James Madison, Tulane, and the potential for real upsets—because a playoff should have room for disbelief. Then we get practical about NIL and the transfer portal: let players get paid and move, but create contract terms that protect both the athlete and the team from nonstop churn.
Between all the football, we savor the absurd: a Pop-Tart mascot toasted and devoured, trophy toasters, and the kind of sponsorship theater that makes college football wonderfully strange. And we open up about life off the mic—riding a packed train to the Browns game, swapping food takes (Wendy’s, fix the lettuce), and building our new retro game and record shop in Finley while wrestling with permits, inspections, and long nights. It’s football, it’s hustle, it’s community, and it’s a reminder that resilience shows up on the field and in the storefront.
If you vibe with candid breakdowns, wild bowl lore, and real small-business grit, hit follow, share with a friend, and drop your playoff upset pick in a review. We read them all—and we’ll shout out the sharpest takes next week.

In a world drowning in boredom, two heroes rise from the ashes with nothing but microphones. An extremely poor decision. Making skills. They faced danger. They faced chaos. They faced absolutely no consequences. For anything they're about to say.
SPEAKER_04:Hello, welcome to another episode 201. We are uh we go from the highest of highs last week to a not really the lowest of lows, but it was pretty fucking low Saturday night. Uh Ohio State, for the first time in 30 fucking years, loses to Indiana in the Big Ten championship. It's fucking chilies, right? 13th to 10th. It's fucking chilies, right? I had to say that.
SPEAKER_05:I'm not going ahead, dude.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, um, Indiana wins their first outright Big Ten title since World War II. Uh we haven't lost to them in 30 years. 30 years. And uh Indiana is arrived, everybody.
SPEAKER_05:Dude, I'm gonna say this.
SPEAKER_04:It's so weird. What kind of this is so bizarre, bizarre a world we live in.
SPEAKER_05:The one thing I I took away from last night, and I remember talking about it on our last podcast episode, is that Indiana's defense was at first our offense kept them at bay pretty well. Like our offensive line held them pretty well, but after a while, man, our offensive line was that right side so fast.
SPEAKER_04:That right that right side of the offensive line is bad. And Indiana exploited that. Good for them. They knew exactly what to do.
SPEAKER_05:And you can hate on Cagneti all day, but that dude fucking.
SPEAKER_04:Oh, Kersignetti is a dog. Yeah, Kersignetti could coach. That dude is good. He's he's been successful wherever he's been. James Madison, uh, now Indiana, and he took he took a perennial loser, like Indiana, who has I think like over 750 losses in their entire program history, which is like one of the worst programs, and in two years, turned it into I'll say right now, I I I'll give Indiana the nod as the odds odd favorite to win the national championship. That is so weird to hear, though, to me. As as oh, that state is gonna burn, dude.
SPEAKER_05:I'm so like, you know, like it's like okay. I'm I'm glad it. Um I it would have been awesome if we would have beat them last night, though. Sure. But if we're gonna lose one of the two games of the year, Indiana or Michigan, I'm glad we came up last night.
SPEAKER_04:They came up last night. My mom's like, who would you rather lose to Indiana tonight or Michigan? I go, Indiana! You fucking kidding me? That's not even a fucking answer, dude. Your video was hilarious.
SPEAKER_05:I I dude, I I I was so glad I saw that. Like I forgot to say something.
SPEAKER_04:I was like, Oh, I was like, here it is. Well, I brought it up. They're like, Well, where's Jay? And is Jay coming tonight? I'm like, no, but he wanted me to the to live stream the bulb thing, and Justin's like, yeah, let's do it.
SPEAKER_06:So just I'm so glad J Rock was on.
SPEAKER_04:Just is like, do it. He goes, dude, I'll film it. I'm like, okay.
SPEAKER_05:I was like, J-rock will film it.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, he's like, dude, I'll film it. I'm like, oh, okay. So uh Justin's like, you do that so well, like you you have ability to like think on the fly like that. I just I'd stammer and I'd like lock up. Did Joe come over? Yeah, Joe was there. Yeah, he was there.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, because dude, I think one of the best things, and I wish we had that video. I don't know if we you do or not, was when Joe was sending. Remember when he had his old house and he was standing in front of his fireplace thing outside? Um, and he did that. Oh, hi there. I didn't notice you were there.
SPEAKER_04:I think we were cutting wrestling promos on each other for fantasy football. Yeah. And I cut one on him, I think, and then he did one on me, which was really good.
SPEAKER_05:God, I wish we still had this.
SPEAKER_04:Oh my god, it was it was amazing.
SPEAKER_05:Um, hi there.
SPEAKER_04:Well, to double back on the Ohio State game from Saturday night. Um, Indiana played, I think their defense played well. Their offense played fucking well. Mendel was really good. I think the Ohio State's defense kept them in the game because Indiana was like, I think they're like one of the top scoring offenses. They only scored 13 on that defense, which is I think is pretty good. But Ohio State had 2024 Michigan brain fart again. Like the play calling in the fucking red zone was absolutely atrocious. And I mean like 2024 Michigan levels of bad. We have second and one, and we run up the guy and get stuffed. Third and one. We have CJ Donaldson, we have bo Jackson was the only uh effective runner we have. What do we do? We throw, we we put it, we take out our two best fucking wide receivers, and we put in this jumbo tight end package, and we do this hoity-toity fucking weird thing, try to throw it to our backup tight end, our third string tight end, which which forces a field goal, and Jaden Fielding fucking gets his 2024 Michigan in two, and he misses it wide left. A 23-yard field goal, which is just inexcuse. That motherfucker could walk home for all I care. So it's it is, but it's not, I don't blame him entirely. There was uh It should have never got to that point. It should have never got to that point. 100% correct. It should have never come down to that in the first place. Ohio State should have they their their red zone inefficiency cost them that game. And that comes down to play calling and coaching. And I don't know if it was from because there was a lot of distractions over the week. Oh, yeah, with Heartline. With Heartline, was Heartline calling this game? Because I remember distinctly Ryan Day had the play sheet in his hand and part of the and Ryan Day ain't the best play caller. He's not when he was play calling a few years ago, it was bad, and he gave it up. And Ohio State got significantly better because he gave up those play calling duties. It felt like we were back to that again. And I hope he fucking I hope it's either heartline, either like was he shopping for houses in Miami or what was going on? Because if that dude's not fully in it, he needs to just fucking go. And that's fine. I understand you know the culture of college football today, that's how it is. But dude, if you if you can't put a game plan together, because Indiana was exploitable. There was if there was multiple times where Indiana was they could have been they could have been exploited, but some just really piss poor play calling. And it's it's just Ohio State should have never been in that situation. But they only dropped a two in the college football playoff ranking, and they play the winner of Texas AM and Miami. Two teams Ohio State can beat. I think fairly easily, in my opinion. Um the only thing I don't like about that draw is that they're in the Cotton Bowl. If AM beats Miami, they gotta play Texas AM in Dallas in the Cotton Bowl. So it's gonna be essentially a fucking home game for Texas AM. Ohio State gets the short out of the straw on that every time.
SPEAKER_05:So will Indiana.
SPEAKER_04:Indiana is playing in the Rose Bowl, and they'll have the winner of Oregon and James Madison. Like, no, no, no, no, no. No, I'm wrong. I'm wrong. They have the eight-nine seed. So they have the winner of Alabama, Oklahoma. That's a shitty draw, in my opinion. That's a shitty draw. Dude, you want the three seed. Georgia plays the winner of um the 12-5, I believe.
SPEAKER_05:It was like Tulane.
SPEAKER_04:Tulane and Tulane and somebody's James Madison. Let's bring up the fucking college football bracket. So Texas Tech is the 4C. They play the winner of Oregon at James Madison. Hilarious James Madison's even in this. It's because Duke Duke won last night. So that fucked shit up.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, so Notre Dame.
SPEAKER_04:Notre Dame got f Okay, so what do you in your opinion? Who do you think should have got that last spot? Alabama or Notre Dame? Or Miami? There's two spots, three teams. Who do you think should have got the two spots? Between Alabama, Notre Dame, and Miami.
SPEAKER_05:What's Notre Dame's record?
SPEAKER_04:Uh they're a uh 10-2, I believe.
SPEAKER_05:Alabama lost three, didn't it?
SPEAKER_04:Yes. They got they got dog walked in the SEC Championship by Georgia.
SPEAKER_05:Oh, yeah. Negative yards rushing.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, negative nine yards. Me and you had more yards rushing than Alabama did. That's what they said.
SPEAKER_06:Notre Dame's sitting at home.
SPEAKER_04:No, Notre Dame's sitting at home and they had more rushing yards. To me, this was an easy this is an easy choice. Notre Dame should have been Notre Dame should have been in. Miami should be in. Alabama could sit the fuck home. They don't, they're not that good. And Alabama's lost three games. It's because there's a lot of money being thrown around. ESPN is in bed with the SEC. We all know that. And it's very obvious. And we have, you know, we we have a mutual friend Dave who has been foaming at the mouth for 24. He hasn't said shit today, though. If you notice that, he's been really silent all day today.
SPEAKER_05:You didn't congratulate me on my story the other day. That's good. Yeah, I saw that.
SPEAKER_04:But he's been foaming at the mouth all Saturday night about them wanting to pick Alabama andor Miami over Notre Dame. And today they did, and he hasn't said Notre Dame declined their bowl invitation. Notre Dame says, We ain't going no fucking bowl. Go fuck yourself. I don't blame him. I don't blame him. I don't blame people can sit there and say, oh, they're just being big babies and cry and go home or join it. You need to join a conference. You wouldn't be in this trouble. James Madison is in. James Madison is in, man. Come on. I thought that was a high school. Listen, I don't What is James Madison? This is the first time I've ever heard of them. Dude, they were they were a they were an F FCS school, what, two or three years ago? They won the FCS National Championship like eight, seven, eight years ago. And they moved up to FBS like three years ago or four years ago. And now they're in the college football playoff. That's wild. You go from being in the in the in the division two or one at double A. Yeah, it's like the Mudhens winning the World Series and they pop them up. Dude, that is wild. James Madison has no place in this. I am sorry, dude. Dude, I laugh they win it all. They beat Oregon. That'd be hilarious. At Austin Stadium? That would be wild. I would shit a brick. Dude, Oregon is a 20 and a half point favorite in that game. They're a three touchdown favorite almost. I want chaos. I would love to see James Madison. Run the fucking table. Run the table, dude. Or too late. Or too late. Dude, too late could beat old Miss. I'm calling it right now. I think that's an upset in the making right there. Then Tulai don't have to play Georgia in the sugar bowl.
SPEAKER_05:So I'd laugh if they beat them too.
SPEAKER_04:Dude, and then too late at Ohio State in the semifinal in the Fiesta Bowl. That's wild, dude. But Georgia gets a home game. They're in the Sugar Bowl, man. That's that's how come these Southern schools get and I tell you what, they almost put the Orange Bowl here.
SPEAKER_05:Because that if my That's why, that's why, in a way, getting that new Cleveland stadium could propose a bowl.
SPEAKER_04:There's no reason why they can't be bringing games like that. Like you, like you said, the the Cleveland's new stadium gonna be built. Minneapolis has a Indianapolis. Indianapolis. There's no reason why they can't bring these games to northern northernly schools. Because these southern SEC schools have a systematic advantage. Okay, Peach Bowl, that's Georgia, but they put it up in the the above bracket, which is cool. They almost so so they have the orange bowl, they almost had the orange bowl here, but the committee decided to put the cotton bowl, even though if Texas AM would that pretty much give them a home game. But Miami plays their home games in the Orange Bowl. So that would have given Miami a de facto goddamn fucking home game if they would have done it that way. Um yeah, uh Indiana and the Rose Bowl, that's fitting. I I like that. They they deserve it, but dude I tell you, this is a tough draw. Dude, I would want to be the three-seed or the four seed. James Madison or Oregon. I yeah. Two later I'll miss! Georgia is gonna go to the fucking semifinals automatic. I'm gonna I'm already putting them here. They're already gonna be the semis. They're gonna fucking beat the piss out of either one of these schools. And Ohio State's gotta play. I think Ohio State can beat any of these two schools. Fair at least. I'm already gonna put Ohio State, Georgia in the semifinal, and that's gonna be a good game. So I don't see a world where Georgia loses to either old Mr. Tulane, and I don't really see a world where Ohio State loses to Texas AM or Miami. So because Ohio, I think Ohio State matches well with these two schools.
SPEAKER_05:And Texas Tech goes down by James Madison. I would preparatory school. It's gonna be Indiana.
SPEAKER_06:Hip-hop, hip-hop, hip-hop, oh that's what I was thinking of, dude.
SPEAKER_04:Madison Preparatory School, dude. James Madison Preparatory School. Yeah, dude, listen, I don't mind throwing a bone.
SPEAKER_06:My first order is to screw you, sir! Screw you, sir.
SPEAKER_04:Really? I want to say that these combinations are unacceptable. Really? I don't like I don't mind giving the G5 a throw them a bone and having the highest ranked G5 champion.
SPEAKER_05:I think next year Toledo's gonna be in there.
SPEAKER_04:They could have. They could if they're ranked high enough.
SPEAKER_05:Or BG.
SPEAKER_04:But having two G5 schools in this tournament is I think is a mistake. But they their hands were tied, they didn't have a choice. Terra State. Terra State Community College, dude.
SPEAKER_05:Heidelberg and meeting.
SPEAKER_04:Heidelberg and Tiffany U.
SPEAKER_05:last year.
SPEAKER_04:Hell, you might as well put Tiffany U or Heidelberg here.
SPEAKER_05:Fuck. I'd laugh my ass. That'd be awesome.
SPEAKER_04:That would be dope.
SPEAKER_05:So on another note, I guess, well, I guess the Chieftains lost last night.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, it gets Perennial Power Kirkland. They weren't gonna beat those guys. Those guys 40 to 6 or something like that.
SPEAKER_05:Dude, that's tough. That dude, that was they made it to runner up for state champions, dude.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Hope a loudon's got a powerhouse football team every fucking year. Those dudes know how they're like they know how to recruit. That NIL money.
SPEAKER_04:That NIL money. Oh, you know what? That's probably why Indiana's so successful now. Because of the world of NIL and the transfer portal. I mean, we we I kind of do.
SPEAKER_05:I don't like the transfer port. I know we have our criticisms of that, but I agree with Dave Portnoy on that shit.
SPEAKER_04:What is what is what does uh shit brain have to say about it?
SPEAKER_05:Because usually I don't agree with him at all at all. I hate him too.
SPEAKER_04:I know I've already talked about it, yeah.
SPEAKER_05:He goes, I think that when you sign for money, it should be like sports.
SPEAKER_04:A contract? I do I did hear him say that, and I do agree with I agree with that a hundred percent, and you shouldn't be able to Shohei Otani be able to go bounce around from team to team after one year, like no, you signed the contract, you sign a contract, and I agree actually. That is a good point, and I will give him I will give him props on that. That he's right, it should be it should be honored as a contract for sure. So, but that's just it's the wild west.
SPEAKER_05:The only thing I ever agreed with him on, besides his pizza reviews. Sometimes do you watch his pizza reviews? I did back in the day. I was like, I know that guy from somewhere. Yeah, I'm like, wait a second, that's that pizza guy. Stick to pizza day, stick to pizza day.
SPEAKER_04:Stick pizza. You suck. You don't know ball, bro. Like he he he got on the BYU train, and BYU got their asses kicked by Texas Tech. So and he was just like, Yeah, BYU should be in. Like, why? It's because Michigan's playing in the Cheese It fucking bowl or whatever. They are yeah, the cheese, what was it? The the team that lost to Michigan, the team, the team that lost the teams that lost to Ohio State Bowl, Texas and Michigan.
SPEAKER_05:The cheese it, what was it? What's the rest of the bowl?
SPEAKER_04:Citrus bowl.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, which cheese it's goes right with citrus.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, it's the dumbest sponsorship ever, like cross-sponsorship, like the Cheese It Citrus Bowl. It used to be like the citrus bowl never really used to have used to be called something, like it used to be called like why do they not have a Kellogg cereal bowl?
SPEAKER_05:That General Mills cereal bowl. You would think or the Betty Crocker mixing bowl. It just goes together.
SPEAKER_06:It is, it works great.
SPEAKER_04:They got the Duke's Mail bowl. The Pop Tart bowl is something I look forward to only because they have this ritual at the end of the game where they put the Pop Tart in the machine and then a big Pop Tart comes out, and then all the players just systematically eat the core the carcass of the mascot, the Pop Tart mascot. So it's fucking awesome. So it's so barbaric. Really?
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, you ever see that?
SPEAKER_04:Oh, I want to watch this.
SPEAKER_05:I'm like, I'm sitting here thinking I'm getting I'm like getting bamboo here. I feel like I'm in I was like Willy Wonking right there. Just keeps on going.
SPEAKER_04:42 points tied for the most in a game. Oh, by the way, there that trophy is a real toaster. It actually works.
SPEAKER_05:Oh, yeah, you told me that.
SPEAKER_00:Fire it up.
SPEAKER_05:Barack Obama.
SPEAKER_00:And waiting to celebrate and trying to decide exactly who they're gonna toast. It's the moment everybody has been waiting for this go to them down to the field. Oh, Iowa State.
SPEAKER_02:Alright, here we go. This is Coach Matt Campbell's favorite flavor. Cinnamon Roma right there. We're pressing that down. When that thing pops out, obviously we're gonna have more pop tarts well. You guys follow your dreams, folks.
SPEAKER_04:I love this. This is so cartoony and stupid, but this is great.
SPEAKER_06:Follow your dreams. Dude, they they throw this dude, they throw this mascot into the toaster, and then a big he's like he's being dipped. Like a fucking Terminator. Yeah, dude. And then a Oh my god, they killed him.
SPEAKER_02:Giant Cinnamon Roll coming out. Thank you all for the 2024.
SPEAKER_05:Oh, and it's like a real pop tart. It's a real pop-tart, dude.
unknown:Congratulations again. Matt Campbell, Rocco Beck, the MVP. What a game. What a performance.
SPEAKER_02:And they started eating them like a goddamn leggings carcass. Let's get some of that giant Pop Tarts. We're heading back to you in studio, Kevin DeGandy. Thank you. God bless you for coming out. Good night. Hammond! That is so good.
SPEAKER_04:Ain't that sweet though? I love that shit.
SPEAKER_05:I'd just go to the Pop Tart bowl just for that.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, dude, if I was a player and I get to eat a giant fuck the giant carcass of a mascot. I'll be like, do you get a toaster strudel bowl? Dude, oh, yeah, even better. Oh man, with a lot toaster strudels. Like the strawberries and cream cheese shit. The higher it's like, yeah, it's like a it's like a Pop Tart, but more uh for rich people.
SPEAKER_05:Dude. Okay. So speaking of food, this morning I woke up at 7 o'clock, which I was tired as fuck. But well, it was seven o'clock because I thought we were I was gonna leave town at 8:30 so we can go to the Browns game. And I was gonna pick my buddy up at like probably not gonna, you know, pick him up in Norwalk on the way at 9 30, and then we fucking head up to the game or whatever, you know, and we could eat on the way up and then you know go to the game, we'd be okay. He's like, uh I'm not I'm not gonna eat, dude. I'm good. And I'm like, well, there's no point in going up early. We just gotta freeze our asses off.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:I said, how about we wait until 9 30 and I'll leave my house at 9 30 to come pick you up? He's like, okay. So I go up and I talk to Sarah, and Sarah didn't go to bed until 4 30.
SPEAKER_06:I didn't realize that, but I was like, hey, hi, princess. Hi, sweetie.
SPEAKER_05:You want to go to the deli? Ooh. Oh, dude. She's like, I'm gonna pass, honey. I'm so tired. I'm like, okay. So get your fucking ass off. I go to the deli by myself. I called Sarah, or not call Sarah, but I called Jake. And Jake was sleeping. I I just thought maybe if he was up or whatever, I'm like, hey, you want to meet me at the deli and I'll fucking you know buy you breakfast? He uh so so I went to deli, ate my shit. I hate eating by myself in a place because I don't know what I'm supposed to do. Am I supposed to eat my food and stare at people? Or am I supposed to look at my phone like I'm a fucking degenerate hipster? Like, what am I supposed to do? You just end up watching my phone, dude.
SPEAKER_04:So you know what you do? You find just one person, you lock eyes with them, and then you just eat what you're eating. I should just stare at you. Just sit with somebody. Just like, hey, is this C take it? Thanks, and just sit out with them. That's what you should do. That would be great.
SPEAKER_05:Um, let me see here. Uh so I told Jake, he goes, Um, hey Pop, sorry for the late reply. I was sleeping, no work today. What's up? We're just gonna take you out to breakfast. Oh, gotcha, I'm sorry. I said it's all good. I just ate by myself and stared enticingly at other patrons. That's the only way to do it. I didn't though. Oh, you should do that. But dude, they got the me. I'm a I love coffee. They have the best coffee. Okay, and uh the um I get their I get their special, which is like the big breakfast kind of special. So you get like eggs and you get sausage and you get hash browns and toast and pancakes, you get like all that shit, but it's so good at the deli, you know it's like it's not that bloated feeling, it's just really good. Okay, and uh so that's what I got, but dude, I look like a fucking hog, dude. I got like three fucking plates sitting in front of me, sitting by my I'm so hungry. Why are you eating that?

I said, we spent 10 bucks for parking, and we're gonna go right up to the stadium, dude. It's just all the way up there. It's awesome. Right, right. So on the first train, a couple stops down the way from Brook Park, a gentleman gets on. The train's full. I've never seen it so full, like from Brooke Park on, right?
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, Brown's fields and stuff.
SPEAKER_05:Brooke Park filled it up.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, makes sense.
SPEAKER_05:And um a gentleman of color got on.
SPEAKER_04:No surprise. Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:And he's standing right in front of me because we're right behind the like the conductor's seat, but it's the back of the train, so all the way back there. And he's got a tall boy in his hand and he's drinking it. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Alcoholic beverage tall boy.
SPEAKER_04:I don't think you're supposed to have them on the train, but excuse me.
SPEAKER_05:Excuse me, can you sir? Is that legal?
SPEAKER_04:You're violating trade rules according to the section, it's 6242 on the architect.
SPEAKER_05:Really nice though. He goes, Well, I think Miles Garrett's gonna be break that sack record tonight. And that's what he said. And I thought so too. I thought, you know, Tennessee's garbage, it's probably gonna happen.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah.
SPEAKER_05:No, I don't think he did. I think he was like two or three away.
SPEAKER_03:Still okay.
SPEAKER_05:But anyway, um, but dude, he was I felt so bad because he was he was actually a nice guy. Like there's a dude standing up beside him, a white guy, and it's I I I didn't really care for how the the white guy was just kind of but anyway, the dude, the white guy was about to fall, kind of almost looked like he was tipping because of the train fucking teetering and shit. Yeah, and and the guy put his hand out to hold him, like to stop him from teetering. And you know, me, like I don't know, to me, I would have been like, hey, thanks, man. It's you know, sorry about that, or whatever. And he didn't say nothing, didn't turn around, nothing, just stood there, and I just I don't know. Maybe it's me because I'm I'm small time rural, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_04:You know, like um I mean if you're in New York City, they they just let you fucking fall.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, they don't care, they don't care, so but I don't know, me, it's just I don't know. We're we have manners. Yeah, not a lot of them, but not a lot of them. Some so but yeah, it was fun. I enjoyed the hell out of it. Getting that upgrade was awesome. I didn't buy any drinks or food at the stadium, I didn't even go in a gift shop or nothing. We just went over and sat down, dude, and that was it. And I even offered, I was like, hey dude, you want a beer? I'll fucking buy it. And he's like, No, I'm good. So, but it was it was a blast. There's a lot of Tennessee Titans. There's people with Philadelphia Eagles jerseys on, Jesus, man. Fucking Chargers jerseys. Like, I'm like, what are you doing? Weird. Yeah, what are you doing? Minnesota? Bengals? What are you? You're do you know what game this is? Do you know where you're at right now? Did you win these? Did you win the tickets on a radio show or something? You're just like, ah fucking no.
SPEAKER_04:I mean fucking weird. This is football. I guess people just go to watch football.
SPEAKER_05:Well, you don't go to a Browns game to watch football.
SPEAKER_04:No, no, you don't. I mean, it's a very vague semblance of football.

SPEAKER_05:Oh, yeah, dude. Uh, really good, man. I do I wanted to make a video the other day to kind of show that we're we actually got the location. Dude, the signs are up for coming soon. Fucking dude, the buzz around Finley is really good. Um dude, oh man, I'm I'm really excited to get it open, to be honest. It's it's a lot of work, dude. Danny, Danny helped me a lot, dude. Uh yes.
SPEAKER_04:Was that did he film your little filming video?
unknown:I can tell.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, he did. I could tell. Yeah, he did. Um, but we uh but it turned out like like no joke, we got the countertops in. Um I'm going to pick up the other countertop tomorrow, I think, from uh Lady Downtown, and then I can unload that bitch by myself. Yeah, no joke, like thank God he was there, dude. It was fucking we we did two of the heaviest fucking things I've ever had to move in my life. And it was funny because we had to walk it all the way around my store. And then what's what's crazy about it, okay. So I never thought I was gonna have to encounter this at all. And and I feel for people that are in this, especially ones that can't help them their circumstances. But around where I am downtown Finley, there there are homeless people, and it sucks, and it sucks right now, and it's horrible. It blows, it's fucking horrible.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, anywho. Did you spray with the hose?
SPEAKER_05:No, I get off my property. I got back to town and I'm pulling in and I'm oh dude, I got a couple of stories, dude.
SPEAKER_04:Okay, okay.
SPEAKER_05:Okay, so I come back into town yesterday, and I'm pulling around back because it was the easiest way to unload this fucking like the the countertop because there's not a lot of traffic. Otherwise, I'm unloading it in the road, uh like a fucking main street road. So I go I go around back and there's a fucking ambulance right behind my guy with lights on, right behind my shop. I pull into a parking space, I look over, and they're loading somebody on a stretcher right behind my shop, right at the door. Oh shit, dude. Yeah, and I'm thinking, oh no, there's two homeless fucking people. One of them got hurt or did something, and the other one's like picking up like pillows and a whole bunch of shit out of the fucking corridor that goes to my door. Which I like I said, I don't give a shit. Like my landlord was like, hey, we have a problem with homeless people here. Like sometimes and they'll like try to sit into the corridors and shit like that, and blah blah blah. To you know, if you don't want them there, just say, just let us know and we'll get rid of them. And I'm like, to me, that is the most heartless shit ever. If you're okay, the one thing I would tell, like, I would like to put up, like, I would almost like to put up a sign and be like, listen, dude, if you need to get in here to stay out of the wind, I don't want you living here. You can't fucking live here, okay? So I don't want to come out here and be like, oh, well, look, there's a box and shit, and you're moving in. No, you can't live in my corridor. But if you need to get out of the wind, you need to stay the night there or something on your on your on your fucking migrating or whatever, feel free, dude. Like, I would never want to keep somebody like I would never want to do that to somebody and be like, shoo! You vermin, get out of here, you know, like kick them out with a broom and shit.
SPEAKER_04:Thank Slumpy.
SPEAKER_05:So thanks, Lumpy. Yeah, do fucking scrape scrape scrape 'em off. So I uh oh yeah, from uh that's when she's rich, isn't it?
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah.
SPEAKER_04:Thanks, Lumpy.
SPEAKER_05:I learned from an old friend of mine, homeless man, that you never give a sucker a break. Get the fuck out of here. Thanks, John Sr.
SPEAKER_04:Never give a sucker a break.
SPEAKER_05:Okay. Not only that.
SPEAKER_04:You gotta be careful though, because if you I hate to say it's people stab you, man. You give people an itch, they'll take a mile sometimes, and you don't want a squatter situation.
SPEAKER_05:So I'm just just well, the core this corridor would be some of the most uncomfortable squatting you can ever have. Yeah, it is, it's a decline like this, and then it's got like a corridor, maybe about from here to the corner right here. Yeah, like it's just that much out of the wind. And I would never say anything to him, I would never go out there and be like that, but I'm never gonna like push show them away unless I see him living there. That's when I'll get the landlord involved and be like, hey dude, there's no customers in that area, like customers. Yeah, that's the back of the store. Okay, and ain't nobody know what the fuck that goes to. You'd have to guess. There's nothing on that thing that says Jay's replays.
SPEAKER_04:Okay.
SPEAKER_05:And uh so anyway.
SPEAKER_04:Do you have cameras back there yet? I can. Okay. I was I don't know if you were gonna have a camera. I'm thinking about it. I can do I would highly suggest it if I were you. Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER_05:I'm gonna have one in the back hallway that leads to that door, yeah, and I have a curtain that blocks the door.
SPEAKER_04:Okay, so you can't see in at all. You could you could get a you could get security cameras for pretty much.
SPEAKER_05:Oh, yeah, dude. I've got a whole mess of them, dude. I've got 12 cameras.
SPEAKER_04:Oh, you already got them?
SPEAKER_05:Oh, dude, they're blink.
SPEAKER_04:Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER_05:And the ones that I got are the outdoor ones that are battery operated for like two years.
SPEAKER_04:Oh, okay.
SPEAKER_05:You can leave them out in the elements for two years. Oh, okay. These fuckers are gonna be inside.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, definitely should have.
SPEAKER_05:So anyway, Friday, I talked to my boss at work, and I'm like, hey, dude, I need to get out of work a little earlier today. I need to get out of three so I can go turn in some permits so I can finally get my signs, you know, approved and everything else, blah, blah, blah. So I get out of work, I load up all the slot wall with Sarah at my house because I wanted to get all that shit over there. Clean my garage out, get the slot wall into my truck. Sarah, my wife, went, and so did Sarah, my assistant manager. So we go over. And uh Sarah goes to the store, I go straight to the uh I go straight to the fucking municipal building, and I get there like six minutes before they're about to close. So six minutes until five. I go in and uh talk to the uh I go up, talk to the lady, and she's like, I'm giving her the paper. I'm like, yeah, I got my permit stuff. Here it is. I got the money to pay, here it is. She's like, uh, we need pictures of the decal logos that you're gonna put on your windows. I said, you need them right now? Like, I can't turn in this permit, and then like email you it right now, like after I get to my truck or something, to send you an email that has a picture on it. She's like, No, it needs to be all turned in together. And I said, Oh, and also there's a sign thing on here. As the lady that I talked to on the phone told me to put the sign on here, the outside sign on here, because it's only one application fee. Then if you do it separately, it's two. You gotta pay$50 rather than$25. I was like, okay, well, I'll just pay$25. So she's like, Yeah, unfortunately, I um you have to do that separately and you have to do it through the year, and I'll dude. I lost it. I did, I lost it on this lady. Um uh I got fucking pissed. So sorry, my wife's like, hey, does Molly need dinner? No, I fed her babe. Okay, so anyway, dude, I went off. And I usually I can keep my cool pretty good, but I just couldn't hold it anymore. I was so frustrated and pissed. So I go, you know, dealing with the city of Finlay has got to be the dumbest fucking thing I've ever had to do in my fucking life. This is so fucking stupid. It's like going to the goddamn hospital where you get charged some money and then but you still owe these fucking people that don't even fucking you're paying$400 and you're like, I should take care of everything, right? Nope. That's for you to walk through the fucking door and then you gotta pay this fucking asshole.
SPEAKER_04:Right, yeah.
SPEAKER_05:And that's why I said to her, I'm just flipping out, dude. And I told her, I told her multiple times. I said, I am so sorry. I said, I know you're just doing your job, and I said, I'm usually not like this, I'm usually happy go lucky. I said, but this whole process has been so frustrating and so many let downs that I'm just uh dude, I'm at my it was at a breaking point, and I was like, you know what? Fuck this. I tried to shake her hand, she jumped back. I'm like, oh, uh okay. I said, well, I apologize. Uh I didn't mean to ruin your day. Hope you have a great weekend. Thank you for all your help. And I walked out. I went downstairs, talked to the uh got on the phone with same day Scott signs. I said, fuck this shit. I said, put my logos on corrugated fucking shit. We're gonna put them on the inside of the windows, we're not putting them on the outside and fuck the sign. I'm not putting a sign above the door because it is too much goddamn red tape. I'm not fucking with Finley anymore. It's a bunch of bullshit. I get told one thing, I do it, and I get told another. I got a week till we're open. I'm not fucking with this. I said, so just put them on corrugated, I'll pay the extra, let me know how much it is. Scott goes, damn, dude. He goes, I thought you were mad at me. I said, I'm not mad at you, dude. I'm pissed off at this situation.
SPEAKER_04:I mean, are you eventually gonna like put a side above your no?
SPEAKER_05:I'm not fucking with it. At least not right now. Well, maybe sometime I will, but as of right now, like I'm just like, whatever, I'm not doing it. Um, so and no joke, those things are in the inside of the windows, those little signs that we have that say coming soon, you can see them perfectly, they're fine. So, what I'm gonna do is put the corrugated shit on the windows. Um, so it'll be people be able to see us, no problem. I do, I wouldn't mind getting a sign in the future, but um, as of right now, I'm not really concerned about it. Um, but uh, but yeah, I was like, scrap that fucking idea, we're not gonna worry about it. It's just one more stress headache that I don't have to fuck with. Because I still got to do a fire inspection, and I don't know how the fucking past people got past the fire inspection because there's no fire extinguishers at anywhere in the fucking place, there's none throughout the whole goddamn building. My my my location. You'd think that shit would be mounted to the walls, but unless they took the fucking things, they might have. So but I didn't even see any holes where fire extinguishers could have been kept. Maybe they just put them behind the counter. I don't know what they did. Yeah, so I gotta wait until those come in. That's Tuesday or Wednesday. My my fire extinguishers are supposed to come in. So I'm hoping we get those, and then that way I can get that shit done. It's just a fucking nightmare, dude.
SPEAKER_04:You think you're kind of spreading yourself thin a little bit?
SPEAKER_05:I'm spreading myself thin big time. Yeah. I got a compliment last night, which was really cool. Sarah's friend Olivia came over to the house and I DJ'd Olivia's wedding. And she goes, She goes, How do you do it? She goes, Sarah. Sarah goes, how do you do it? And Sarah goes, What do you mean? She goes, Jason was a fuck up like 10 years ago. Like Jesus Christ. I mean, I was I 110 150%. I was a fuck up. I wasn't you know, he was he was just a like now he works his ass off and does all this shit, you know. Like, yeah, she's like, how, how, what, like, she goes, I don't know. She goes, it makes me worry. Sarah, Sarah's worried about me because I I don't stop, I keep going. But you know what? Um, it's kind of like we were raised different, you know, not raised different, but we were we were raised in a different time than today, to where hard work prevailed. That's what we had to do, man. You know, if you wanted to make something when we worked at McDonald's, you couldn't just sit there and not do shit. Yeah, I mean, yeah, there was downtime, which was awesome, but if if you had a hundred dude, none of these fucking McDonald's workers will ever understand the Russia 39 cent cheeseburgers and shit.
SPEAKER_04:Man, don't even give a shit, dude. I'm getting PTSD, just thinking about that.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, they don't have they don't understand. Or do we fucking buy one, give buy a Big Mac for a dollar?
SPEAKER_04:Oh, the the uh remember the tax relief days they used to have? Was it the buy one get one free Big Macs, the quarter pounders? Yeah back in the day. Uh the to two for what is it? The buy one get one free filet of fish during uh or is it two for three dollars filet of fish two for three, yeah. For during let and shit like that. Now they're like, you get two of those for ten bucks. Ten bucks, yeah, two for ten. Like that's supposed to be some sort of deal now. Oh, I remember we used to have those warmers just stacked with cheeseburgers and hamburgers.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, we had to.
SPEAKER_04:Dude, people would dude. That was that was some shit, man.
SPEAKER_05:People come in and buy like fucking hundreds.
SPEAKER_04:Hundreds of them, man. Then they kind of they kind of regulated it a little bit, like the next kind of time they did it, because you only buy like 10 at a time, like either 10 cheeseburgers or 10 hamburgers, and that per visit, then you just you just have motherfuckers just going around a bunch of times.
SPEAKER_05:But yeah, yeah, it's but you know, like we were and I hate this to get on my soapbox and and kind of act like we're fucking just old and shit, but we it was we were just raised at a different we're just raised at a different thing.
SPEAKER_04:Which is weird because like we're the ones that are raising these these kids today, though, technically.
SPEAKER_05:Kind of not really, I mean in a way, in a way we are, but in a way we're not because how many okay, so on that note, there's been a lot of regulations and shit put on parents to be like, nah, hey, like uh like almost kind of like telling you, hey, you're not supposed to raise your kids that way, and and you know, what and then there's been a lot of school raising kids, like to where the schools are kind of uh were taking over there for a while, and schools were teaching kids things that weren't approved by parents, and like taking the whole parents out of the equation there for a bit. So, I mean, it's definitely a different day and age, whereas when we were growing up, our parents raised us. That was that was the end all be all. If your parents didn't give a shit whether you did something, awesome. If they did, you're getting your ass beat, you know, like that's how it was back in our day. But that one, the the I think the turning point of of um of raising kids became a huge there was a huge turning point where discipline, like any form of discipline towards kids, kids could call the police. And I think there there was a time where that could there was that was a lot more lenient to where the kids could like you almost it was almost you couldn't punish your kids, you couldn't take them to the car and speat their ass. You couldn't do any of that shit because if you did and somebody saw it, it was an abuse thing. And it's like, dude, do you understand we grew up with that shit? Like, I get it, things have to change. I totally understand that because obviously back in you know, like my grandpa beat the shit out of my grandma. That's yeah, I would never want that again to do, you know.
SPEAKER_04:But uh I think you can have a stirred hand and not necessarily hit your kids. I think there could be there's ways to do it, but yeah, I it also depends on the kid. It does. Yeah, there's all it's all it's all circumstance, you know. It's just depends on the temperament of the kid and the kind of environment the kid is in, and whether there's two a two-parent household, you know, there's a lot of circumstances, a lot of factors of circumstances.
SPEAKER_05:I I can't I can't reach it. I understand why parents drown their kids in bathtub, it's so much easier. I'm just kidding. Just driving them off a cliff or something.
SPEAKER_04:What do you want to say?
SPEAKER_05:You took all the best acting gigs. You don't want to say what do you what do you want to say on your 10th birthday? Would you rather say, oh, where's dad? Or Chad Daniels?
SPEAKER_04:What's is that who it was? That's Chad Daniels that did that.
SPEAKER_05:What would you rather say on your birthday birthday?
SPEAKER_04:I can't speak to raising children because I don't have any. I think my cats, dude, it's close enough. You know, they're they got this, but I don't hit my cats, so so I I I gentle gentle. I watch them, dude. I do, I smack them in the face.
SPEAKER_05:I laugh now, but I would feel so horrible for your cats, dude.
SPEAKER_06:If I hit my cats, you know, they're just chasing them around the house beating them. Come out, you little shit! How dare you eat your food?
SPEAKER_05:Come here.
SPEAKER_04:My cats will fight back though. That's the problem.
SPEAKER_05:Not after no, I think after a couple times.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, they would they just avoid me. Oh, yeah, they'll be hiding from here, Leo.
SPEAKER_06:It's like, is it beating time? Is it time for another beating? I can't take it again. It's the third time this week.
SPEAKER_05:They both wait till you sleep and just fucking tie you up like Gulliver's travels.
SPEAKER_04:Like, ha it's like this. It's like we got him now. Like, what's going on? And like Leo grabs me on my shirt. It's like, we're gonna fuck you up.
SPEAKER_05:It's like the calf from fucking scary movie.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_05:But no, I uh no, I just like it's just a dead, you know. Well, I mean, I uh you know, not like I said, I didn't want to get on a soapbox, but you know we were just raised to we're just raised to fucking bust ass. That's what we do. You know, you need stuff done, you give it a big drive. I am lazy.
SPEAKER_04:I'll admit I am lazy.
SPEAKER_05:I think we all have a lazy streak to us.
SPEAKER_04:Well, like if I get a if I gotta get something done, I'll get it done.
SPEAKER_05:So it's just but like you said the other day, you had to pull down all the decorations and shit from upstairs. That's not an easy feat, dude. It's a lot of fucking work. And you could have just sat on your couch or sat in a chair and not do it, but you got it all fucking done. Yeah, you know what I'm saying? Like, I haven't got my Christmas stuff up, and it's not because I'm lazy, it's just because I don't don't that's last year.
SPEAKER_04:You've been a little busy though.
SPEAKER_05:I don't care a shit about the Christmas stuff.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, I I would figure you'd have you got a little bit more uh important things on your plate right now and then putting up Christmas stuff.
SPEAKER_05:Yeah, it might be. Oh, the other night, and both Sarahs are together and they're annoying the fuck out of me, dude. I'm already having a bad day because I got I scared the shit out of the lady at the fucking office thing, municipal office. But here I got two Sarahs and they're just saying dumb shit all day, dude. I'm working and I'm trying to concentrate on stuff, and I got fucking my wife in one ear and the other Sarah in the other ear barking and doing stupid shit and saying stupid stuff. Like my wife, we went to Wilson's burger, dude. There's a burger place right down the road from us. It's like having an ice cream place, but they put everything inside. Okay, kind of like Jollies, but but like I love Jollies, but the their burgers and their malt, they have a chocolate malt. Okay, it's like Wendy's. Oh, their burgers are like square like Wendy's and they taste just like Wendy's. Oh it's like, oh, a homemade Wendy's? Nice, this is fucking awesome. Their fries were really good, the burgers were tasty, the fucking malt was fucking amazing. It was like a frosty. Ooh. It's right down the road from me, dude. You can walk there. It's like well, I mean it's like three and four blocks away.
SPEAKER_04:Yeah, fucking great place, dude. Dude, Wendy's speaking of Wendy's, dude, they went from do you put lettuce? Do you put lettuce on your sandwiches? Yeah, okay. They went from the leafy lettuce to the shredded lettuce at Wendy's. Really? Horrible decision. I don't. I I hate it. Because I got I got uh ginger bacon cheeseburger today for lunch. And they're I'm like, what is this sh they put fucking shredded lettuce on their burgers now instead of the leafy lettuce?
SPEAKER_05:I wonder if they ran out.
SPEAKER_04:No, it's been the last few times I've went, it's what they've been putting on it. Is that's what I thought at first too. But no, they've been putting the shredded lettuce on it, and it almost tastes like McDonald's in a way. It's it's it's fucking with my brain. I don't like it. Wendy's go back to the leaf lettuce. That that's that's what burgers need, man. Shredded lettuce are for tacos, bro. Leafy lettuce is the leaf whole lettuce is for burgers and stuff.
SPEAKER_05:I don't know. Big Mac has to have this shredded lettuce. Big Mac with shredded lettuce is so good, dude. Yes, it was made for that, right? It's but I think it's just because we're so used to it. Go into a leaf lettuce on on a Big Mac, you would fuck my world.
SPEAKER_04:I mean, I'm talking maybe like in general, like a burger needs a good leaf lettuce, I feel it's just like a sandwich does, sandwich in general, like like go like shredded lettuce is for tacos, is what I feel, but maybe I'm wrong. But yeah, the Big Mac is a good point because I love a Big Mac.
SPEAKER_05:Or the Big Boy, they have the shredded lettuce.
SPEAKER_04:You're right.
SPEAKER_05:I I think they're they're both derivative of yeah, they're they yeah, because remember we went to fucking Ohio style.
