00:00Someone brought a live chicken and they threw it in the air.
00:03That's just animal cruelty and it ruins everybody's time.
00:06I guarantee they had to stop the movie.
00:08They had to bring the cops in.
00:09They had to get the chicken out of the theater, maybe animal control.
00:12I hate this.
00:16All right, it's the rundown Thursday, April 10th.
00:19The Good Mood Crew is here to end your week on positive vibes with the Masters starting here.
00:25And in addition to the Masters, you have obviously your golf going around.
00:31And then let's just get some fun.
00:32Let's get into it.
00:33Let's dig deep in some NASCAR.
00:34Talladega, boys.
00:35Talladega Super Speedway is NASCAR's biggest, baddest track, delivering heart-pounding action,
00:41pack racing thrills, keep drivers three wide, and bumper-to-bumper at 200 miles per hour.
00:46Playoff implications are on the line, making every lap more intense.
00:49Unpredictable finishes mean anyone can take the checkered flag at Talladega.
00:53The fan experience is unmatched with camping, tailgating, and electric infield energy.
00:57Tickets are selling fast.
00:58So secure your spot at NASCAR.com.
01:01Like I said, golf, nice fun, little foo-foo stuff.
01:04You like golf?
01:05God bless.
01:06But NASCAR, that's a common man's sport.
01:07You know my guy knows that NASCAR.
01:09They've made their way to Chi-Town a few times, and he's had himself quite a time.
01:13I will be at Talladega in two weeks, so I'm very excited.
01:17Ooh, wow.
01:18I'm jealous.
01:19I've done Daytona.
01:20I've done Miami.
01:21I've done Nashville, and I know Talladega is, like, one of the heavy hitters.
01:25It's basically, like, Daytona and Talladega, from what I understand, Rob, is, like, the
01:29Royal Rumble WrestleMania of NASCAR, so I'm pumped.
01:34I like that.
01:35Did Large send you the invites that had come down to Talladega?
01:39Let's have ourselves a time?
01:40It wasn't Large, actually, that damn guy.
01:43He should have sent it to me, but it was MB in the sale, so.
01:46Okay, good, because I was going to say, if Large sent you the invite, I didn't get the
01:49invite, we're usually together with the Large thing.
01:51I was going to get really mad at Large, so Large just dodged a bullet, but anyone, you
01:56can go check out the race.
01:57Check out our guy, Ed.
01:58Have yourselves a heck of a time at Talladega, because that's on my bucket list.
02:01I've gone to Daytona.
02:03I didn't go to the race, but I went to the track.
02:05But Talladega, that's, like, that's one of those things, you know, Talladega nights.
02:08It's just one of those courses you got to see.
02:10So, experience the rush to Talladega.
02:11Get your NASCAR tickets now for edge-of-your-seat action.
02:15Secure your seats today at NASCAR.com.
02:17Again, I love you.
02:18You can just have yourselves a few beverages, watch the race goes around.
02:21It's one of those sports.
02:22I put it number one on the difference between watching it on TV and in person.
02:27Hockey's up there, too, but NASCAR guts, man.
02:31It's in your soul just seeing those cars just tear up the track and everything in there.
02:37All right, so we'll get into it.
02:38But people had their hearts torn out last night.
02:42Luka's return home, back to Dallas.
02:45Mavs lose.
02:46Luka drops 45.
02:48And Nico Harrison hears fire Nico all night long as the, I mean, I don't even know where we are at rock bottom.
02:56As a couple, as three fellas who've rooted for teams that are different levels of, like, catastrophes.
03:03Brab, obviously, is out of that right now with football.
03:05I don't know how much lower the Mavs can get, but this one was a tough one last night, Eddie, for the Mavs fans.
03:11Yeah, and I've seen, like, the constant discussion be, like, how much do you think, like, Nico Harrison cares, right?
03:19Don't you always wonder that with guys like this?
03:21Like, they get this, like, huge position.
03:23Like, I think he came over from Nike with Palenka.
03:25Like, that's the whole story.
03:26Like, how everyone thinks that there was some shady business.
03:29But, like, do you think, like, he knows how, like, gravely he fucked up?
03:33Or do you think he still believes that this was the right move?
03:38This is, like...
03:40Because there's no way he expected this kind of back, right?
03:43I think even if you make a bad trade, you never want to have the entire fan base chanting fire you.
03:49You know?
03:49It's, like, one thing to, like, make a trade maybe people don't understand or don't like from certain perspectives.
03:53But, like, the entire fan base chanting fire you, funerals outside, and then Luca is, like, one of the biggest, you know, he's going to motherfuck you.
04:02Like, if anything, they assured that Luca's career will never go the direction they feared it would go by inspiring him.
04:09It was such a fucked up catch-22 with this trade presented.
04:12But I think we've all been there.
04:14At least I know I've been there.
04:15You make a bad fantasy trade and you just feel like a fucking moron.
04:20But this is on such a bigger, more grandiose scale.
04:23And I don't think anyone could have seen this coming.
04:26It goes down as the, like, holy shit, worst trade.
04:30We will...
04:30Our grandkids will be talking about, like, well, at least it wasn't as bad as the Luca trade, right?
04:34Yeah, but, Clem, the big difference is a big fantasy trade.
04:36You know if that was a loser six to eight weeks down the road.
04:41This was a loser on arrival.
04:43The night it happened, yeah.
04:47Six to eight seconds, which the night it happened, again, I'm an old man.
04:50I fell asleep.
04:51Ed, when you saw it all go down, like, you said you saw the live reactions and it was just instantly just, like, what the fuck?
04:58And I think everyone probably was, A, they thought Shams was hacked.
05:01But then, B, people were still waiting for the, like, all right, now where's the three future first-round picks?
05:06Or the Austin Reeves part of the trade?
05:08That would at least make it, like, not defensive.
05:11I guess defensible is the word.
05:12But it just, like, it wasn't there.
05:14It's like, well, as long as AD doesn't get hurt.
05:16And then he immediately gets hurt.
05:18Yeah, I mean, I was at, like, an adult get-together.
05:20So it was, like, you know, like, fifth.
05:21I feel weird saying that.
05:22But you know what I mean?
05:23It was a party.
05:24Adult get-together.
05:24Is that an order yet?
05:25Don't get-together.
05:25What the hell is that?
05:26It's like a party.
05:27But, like, it wasn't, like, it was, like, 15 people.
05:30You know what I mean?
05:31It was, like, a little.
05:32Sounds like a party.
05:34I'd call that a party.
05:35Yes, but, like, I don't know.
05:36Like, I feel like parties are reserved.
05:38Adult get-together sounds like you're hiding some shady business in your closet.
05:41Does it?
05:42Yeah.
05:43That would be, I mean, that probably would have been more fun.
05:45That sounds like a swinger party or something.
05:47No, it was more like.
05:48Were there guns?
05:49It kind of does.
05:51Well, you know, there's, like, bowls of chips and shit.
05:54You know what I mean?
05:55Yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:56Were you guys watching the Royal Rumble at this adult gathering?
06:00Because I remember that was the night.
06:02You were watching college basketball.
06:04It was the night I fell in love with Texas Tech.
06:06Oh.
06:06I remember it vividly.
06:08But, yeah, I remember just watching that.
06:10And, like, all the guys at the party were like, oh, my God.
06:15It was, like, and all the girls were like, why are you guys freaking out so much?
06:18It was basically like we saw we killed Ben Laden.
06:20Like, it was that shot.
06:22It's funny you say that because I was at Jared's for the Royal Rumble.
06:26And all the guys were like, oh, my God.
06:28And me and Jared were like, yeah, we don't know what's going on with this.
06:30We were the girls in that situation.
06:33Yeah.
06:33Oh, so that was the night of the Rumble.
06:34That was the night of the Rumble.
06:36Oh, okay.
06:37Crazy.
06:37So, Ed, you went to an adult get-together.
06:39That was not a Royal Rumble night, too?
06:41Yeah.
06:42No, it was, like, couples and shit.
06:44You know what I mean?
06:45It's a swinger party.
06:46Yeah, that's exactly what it was.
06:48It was actually, yeah, it was an ABC anything but clothes party party.
06:52Yeah, it was.
06:54I'm going to spin zone this for, I guess, Nico Harrison, if not Mavs fans in general.
07:01At least they got the return out of the way this season.
07:04Because every time he comes back, it's going to be weird.
07:08But at least they got it done now instead of the next season.
07:10Then it's, like, everything's going to bubble up.
07:12But then if it was his first time and they got to do the tribute video and he's crying.
07:17I saw there was a thing they were trying to, um, Greenie blog something.
07:21And it was, like, the Mavs were trying to get, like, all the sponsors of Luka's to, like,
07:25they were going to, like, do, like, a special team with all the sponsors.
07:28And Luka's like, no.
07:29And he shut it all down.
07:30Like, the Mavs have handled this so goddamn badly.
07:33Every time Cuban, the current owner, every single person on the front office org chart comes out,
07:39they just get deeper into it.
07:40They just need this shit just to end.
07:42So, I guess, at least it's a little closer to not being talked about as much.
07:47But this time next year, when Ed's at his next adult get-together,
07:49Ray, guys, remember when the Luka trade happened?
07:52Pass me my boxers over here.
07:53You know, like, it's going to be just awkward for everyone.
07:55Exactly.
07:56I'll be, like, I'm, like, the third guy's wife.
07:58And I'll be, like, oh, my God, I can't believe this.
08:01It was me and Luka when we saw the tweet, right?
08:04Yeah, exactly.
08:05It was cool.
08:07Learn something every new on the round.
08:09You never know what's going to come up next.
08:11Speaking of which, so we have a lot of news coming out of Washington, D.C. these days,
08:18we'll just say.
08:19Donald Trump, President Trump, I guess we could say, signed an executive order ending the mandate
08:25of low-flow showerheads.
08:27So, yeah, and then he kind of said, so I can take care of my beautiful hair.
08:33I can't.
08:33I was going to throw it to my guy.
08:34Ed went all the way to Turkey because he was so ashamed of his beautiful hair, which I think
08:39is beautiful, personally.
08:40So, I'm going to go to Rob, someone who does have luscious locks here.
08:43Recent cut.
08:44Bob, when you think about El Presidente here going and, you know, making a bill that I think
08:51finally getting some proof rating points back from the tariffs last week.
08:56Yeah, and these things come up all the time.
08:59Like, I feel like he signed the one about Ticketmaster with Kid Rock recently.
09:03He signed one banning plastic straws.
09:05I've yet to see the plastic straws come back.
09:09Or, you know, he was trying to ban the paper straws, bring the plastic straws back.
09:13Maybe it's just New York, New Jersey.
09:14They're, like, resisting it or something.
09:16But I'm still waiting for the plastic straws to come back because, oh, my God, I ordered
09:22McDonald's the other day.
09:23I got a vanilla shake, paper straw, vanilla shake.
09:27What are we talking about there?
09:28And I got the glass straws, you know, but I don't have the thick ones for the shakes.
09:32They're just the thin ones for, like, coffees and stuff.
09:35So, I'm just fed up with the paper straws, and I just can't get over that.
09:39So, I will believe this when I see it, same as the paper plastic straws.
09:45Now, did places actually mandate the straws, or did they, like, pivot because it was their
09:49own initiative?
09:50That's my question.
09:51I guess if McDonald's did it, that means maybe.
09:54Yeah.
09:54Well, this is the thing.
09:56My McDonald's has never gone to paper, from what I can tell.
10:00They've gone from the white with the lines, which we love, beloved McDonald's straws, to
10:05now they're just clear plastic, which is fine by me.
10:07And I actually, I added someone recently, and I said, oh, man, I'm happy McDonald's stays
10:12strong with the plastic here.
10:13So, unless it's, like, an incredible paper straw, which doesn't sound like what Bob's
10:16saying.
10:17It's not good, no.
10:17So, I've had nothing but, and again, you have a straw, a paper straw with soda, you're
10:23unhappy.
10:24You have a paper straw with a shake.
10:26You're basically just taking a spoon out, or you're going to have to start drinking it
10:29out of the cup, which defeats the whole point of this.
10:31I'm sucking ice cream through cardboard.
10:34Like, I never want to be doing that, ever.
10:36Yeah, that's horrible.
10:38I, this might be controversial.
10:42Oh, boy.
10:43When it comes to hotels, I think there are, obviously, there are two main attributes that
10:49people really care about.
10:51And one is, people care about water pressure.
10:54And two is, air conditioning, right?
10:57I don't, like, water pressure doesn't really affect me.
11:03Really?
11:03Really?
11:04Like, even if it's really, really bad, like, if it's trickling down, you don't care?
11:07Like, sure, if it's trickling down, where it's like, all right, I'm going to be here
11:10for an hour.
11:11Yeah.
11:11Or, like, if it's not, like, really pumping, where it's not blowing my skin off, and it's
11:16just, like, a good stream, I'm okay.
11:19Like, I'm okay.
11:20No, I'm definitely, I like good water pressure and a shower.
11:24It's not that I don't like it, but it's not, like, an end-all-be-all.
11:27I would rather have a mandate to stop the bullshit with these hotel ACs that lets you,
11:35only lets you go down a certain amount.
11:36They cap you.
11:37Yeah, no, that's the next executive order.
11:40That's a good one.
11:41That's my bill.
11:41That's what I want.
11:42I want him to sign into place.
11:44We should all have to get those Jeff D. Lowe bean showers.
11:47Remember when Jeff D. Lowe was tweeting?
11:48He got the bean shower head all the time.
11:53I think he said that was good, though.
11:55I think he liked it.
11:56More Jeff D. Lowe, as seen on TV products, from the president.
12:03Trump needs to do this more.
12:04He needs to lean into this side of his personality more, where it's like, this is the stuff that
12:10it's like the kid who promises he's going to get a vending machine in school or free ice
12:15cream for everyone, and then never comes through with it.
12:17You can't come through with stuff like this when you're the president of the United States.
12:20You can bring plastic straws back against, maybe not New Jersey.
12:23You can bring, you can ban the low-pressure shower heads, which when my, again, I got
12:29no hair here, so I have no skin in the game in that sense, but I love some high pressure.
12:34When I had the plumbers come out, we had to get our shower, it was like an old shower
12:37head, they put a new one in.
12:38Guy took the restrictor plate off.
12:40It was worth like the $400 or whatever I paid for.
12:43He hit you with the C-3PO, he took that off.
12:45Yeah, exactly.
12:46I was like, oh my, I never knew there was restrictor plates on it.
12:49So the fact that they're banning that, and again, this is the other thing I think Trump
12:53could play into if he wants to, again, maybe he doesn't give a fuck, but when Trump was
12:57cooking back in the 90s and the 2000s until everything that happened recently, it's when
13:02he had fun with like, ah, my hair, I got beautiful hair, and everyone makes the hair jokes.
13:07I think you kind of got to play into that a little more, along with just solving the common
13:11everyday man problems.
13:12I'm going to fix the ice cream machines at McDonald's, right?
13:15Boom.
13:15Like, taking care of it, and everyone's happy.
13:17Yeah.
13:18And maybe, I might say it's going to wipe, you know, tariffs off the front page, but
13:23at least it gives you that little box, the little blurb about how, by the way, your showers
13:28just got better.
13:29And again, my best 10 minutes of my day are in my shower, five to 10 minutes.
13:35These are just genius moves.
13:37Like, you sit there, and it's like, there's real world shit, but if you just do a little
13:40people pleaser bill like this every other week, like, people will like,
13:45that'll grab the headline and people for more.
13:47I was going to say, these are the moves for the internet headlines.
13:50Exactly.
13:50Yeah.
13:51Are you signing the snack back, the snack wrap back next week?
13:55Oh, that'd be good.
13:56Oh, my God.
13:56I heard they're testing that in like tiny markets.
13:59I feel like it's like a government project is happening in these like secret bases, but
14:05the snack wrap is being teased.
14:06And this is actually a good transition.
14:08Right before we went live, I said, oh, I just saw a headline that I want to break to
14:12you guys live on air because I feel like it fits what you guys have going on with the
14:16snack boys.
14:17Okay.
14:18WWE just trademarked this morning snack down.
14:23So can we see the snack boys tag team in a WWE ring coming soon for snack down?
14:30I think that's a collaboration made in heaven, a match made in heaven, as they say.
14:37What is snack down, Bob?
14:38What's going on here?
14:39I don't know.
14:39I don't know what snack down is.
14:42Oh, now, listen, I'll be honest.
14:44I've been very jealous on the WWE collabs that have been going on in this company.
14:48Obviously, they go to the rightful people, you Walker and the guys who are really still
14:52in the mix of things and not just me and Clem, like the attitude era heads, but they
14:58get snack down and they want some snack guys like, you know, just, you know, shove us
15:03a cookie.
15:03I'd love to go to a smack down and, you know, just eat snacks on the side.
15:06That would be so great.
15:10They cut you guys in the front row and we've got the snack boys here, ladies and gentlemen,
15:13both of you guys eating cookies.
15:17Happiest pigs and shit just wave into the camera, crumbs everywhere.
15:22It's like Isaiah Thomas, the last dance.
15:24Like I filled all the criteria.
15:26I don't know why I wasn't about it.
15:28Snack down.
15:28Wow.
15:31Massive news.
15:32I thought you were going to say they brought they because remember they brought they tried
15:35to bring back the WWF, the ice cream bars, but it wasn't the same didn't have the same
15:39exact texture and it didn't have the stick.
15:42Maybe maybe that'll be included in the snack again.
15:45It better be people have been asking for that for like two decades at this point.
15:49Enough with the half measures.
15:50Yes.
15:51I mean, we do have a guy in the White House and he actually is pretty friendly with the
15:55people at WWE.
15:57Linda McMahon is part of his cabinet.
15:59She's like the head of Board of Education, right?
16:01Yeah.
16:03Crazy world we live in.
16:05So, yeah.
16:06Again, but like the Ticketmaster thing, if that thing actually if Trump actually wiped that
16:10off the all the bots and all that stuff, it would be legitimate like first line of not
16:18maybe not first line.
16:19We'll put it in the first paragraph for my personal thing.
16:21It's like any guy rid of those fucking bots and he could actually get tickets without spinning
16:25an arm and a leg or, you know, everything selling out in one second.
16:29So very interesting stuff from the president there moving along.
16:35It's hard to get sometimes hard to get T times and stuff like that.
16:38But this season, this golf season, are you looking for an easier way to get on the course?
16:43We've got you covered because the Barstool Golf Time app makes it easy for golfers to

17:10Look.
17:11Show them, Bob.
17:12Ooh, that's one of my favorites.
17:13It's nasty.
17:14That's when I knew some gave more.
17:16When we still had the magic is when the Biz Nasty Gym Club came out.

17:55Moving along here, we're going to go back inside to, I think, a beloved spot for everyone
18:02in this, the movie theater.
18:03We're going to go inside to the movie theaters that Jeff D. Lowe has kept afloat despite the
18:07Steven shades of the world trying to destroy them.
18:09The Minecraft movie is out.
18:12The reviews have been, I guess it's been, Bob, would you say, I don't know if tepid's
18:18the right word.
18:18It seems like if you're not a Minecraft fan, it's probably not for you.
18:21But if you're a Minecraft fan, it's a pretty good time.
18:25However, if you're a Minecraft fan and just a fucking asshole, I guess, whatever the chicken,
18:32the chicken rider, what's his name?
18:33Chicken Jockey.
18:34Chicken Jockey.
18:35When, when, when Chicken Jockey gets said by Jack Black, kids in the movie theater are just
18:41losing their absolute minds.
18:42Popcorn in the air, shit just getting trashed, sodas on the ground.
18:46And then some dude making like $10 an hour having to clean up when it's all said and done.
18:51And Bob is a former movie theater employee.
18:53What are your thoughts on all these videos of the Minecraft kids losing their mind, which
18:56included like, it looked like the kids that did the pizza review with Dave, the foodie
19:00boys or whatever, getting like escorted out by cops.
19:03Yeah.
19:04They, they all have the same haircut, which is very funny.
19:07They all kind of look like they could be Minecraft characters in and of themselves.
19:10I have a strong opinion about these videos.
19:12I hate them.
19:14I absolutely despise them.
19:15And that contradicts how much I love crowds going wild during Avengers movies say, but
19:21it's never throwing popcorn.
19:23It's never making a mess.
19:24It's never bringing a live chicken into a movie theater.
19:28Someone brought a live chicken and they threw it in the air.
19:31That's just animal cruelty.
19:32And it ruins everybody's time.
19:34I guarantee they had to stop the movie.
19:36They had to bring the cops in.
19:37They had to get the chicken out of the theater, maybe animal control.
19:40I hate this.
19:41There's nothing that I loved more as a kid growing up than going to the movies with my
19:46family or my brother taking me or my sister taking me to the movies, just a nice wholesome
19:51time.
19:51And there was nothing that would make that worse than a group of rowdy teens disturbing
19:56the movie when you're just trying to watch it.
19:58And I was thinking there's so many kids that were probably in these theaters, genuinely just
20:04thrilled and excited to see Minecraft.
20:06And they got their entire experience ruined for like a couple of TikToks where all the flashes
20:10go up immediately.
20:11And it was just these videos have been really pissing me off.
20:15And as a former theater employee, super annoying to clean.
20:18I mean, like, I guarantee it's drinks everywhere.
20:21The floor is getting sticky.
20:23Popcorn sticking to it.
20:24The leaf blower is not going to work.
20:26The worst.
20:27Ed, what do you got?
20:29Yeah, I tried to find another angle on this story and like kind of see a different side
20:33because that's what we try to do with these topics here.
20:35And the only thing I can think of is like, I'm happy people are going to the movies because
20:38I love the movie so much, but I don't think I want these people at the movies, Bob.
20:42I think you're right.
20:42I think like if you go to the movies, you know, the teens are the worst people to be in your
20:49theater like they really are.
20:50They don't care.
20:51They're there to dick around.
20:52I'm not going to say that I was never that guy because I was.
20:55But yeah, I fucking hate them.
20:58And I hate and I hate myself back in the day for doing that to other people.
21:02So this sucks.
21:03I never did something like this.
21:05This was never a thing.
21:05Sure, you threw popcorn at your buddy, maybe dumped all the bucket on his head.
21:09But like you never throw on pop and shit and like going screaming.
21:13It's just crazy.
21:14So you shut the fuck up and watch the movie.
21:18I yeah, I'm in the same boat as you.
21:20And I'm trying to figure out a way where I'm just not coming down as the old angry man
21:23waving his fist.
21:24And I got kids.
21:25And if my kids did this, they would be fucking good.
21:29Good night.
21:29Like you will never see Minecraft on a screen at our house ever again.
21:33Like on your iPad, iPad is gone.
21:34We're going hardcore punishments on them.
21:37I guess like maybe it could be said like.
21:40Like if the theaters could do little events for like Minecraft parties where they give
21:46you a bunch of shit that you could throw some silly string, whatever it may be.
21:49Everyone just geeks the fuck out.
21:51Have you because like if you go to an old school movie like I would see Die Hard when
21:55it gets re-released and then everyone pops like when Hans is on the screen for the first
21:59time, McClane for the first time, even like Ellis and everyone just does the Hans boobie.
22:03They everyone says the line.
22:04That shit's fun.
22:05We've talked about that, Bob.
22:06How like you could do those re-watchable movies like when Wicked did the sing-along
22:11thing.
22:11Like nobody wanted you to sting during the normal Wicked showing, but if they do a karaoke
22:15sing-along, all right, then it's fair game.
22:17Maybe they just lay like plastic down in the theater like it's a Dexter kill room and they
22:24just call it the chicken jockey screening or just build a build a glass, one of those glass
22:28boxes in the lobby, you know, and play that.
22:30Yeah.
22:31Everyone gets in line and you all put that on social.
22:34That's going to play too.
22:35You'll get your clout.
22:37Do that.
22:38You know, you're not bothering nobody.
22:40If we ever launch a movie theater, boys, we've had, we've been throwing some good ideas
22:43around these rundowns.
22:44We could have such a good movie theater, man.
22:46It would be awesome.
22:48So yeah, I think there is a way it could work, but the way it's going right now.
22:51And the thing is the chicken, I didn't even know about the chicken until just now.
22:55And I looked it up.
22:56That's like Rocky couldn't catch a chicken.
22:58He was a professional boxer until he actually had the eye of the tiger back.
23:01Like, how the fuck do you get the thing out of there?
23:03I don't understand unless you have like a professional, like you said, animal control
23:07or something like that.
23:08Really, really quick too.
23:09This is just completely off topic, but AMC theaters, please stop changing your fucking
23:13pretzel bites for the love of God.
23:15Yeah.
23:16Saw your tweets about that this week.
23:17That's a real campaign that you're running.
23:19Rob, it drives me fucking nuts.
23:22Have you ever had their pretzel bites in regular form?
23:25Yeah, I think I like them.
23:27They're really good.
23:28It's like, I go to the movies a lot.
23:30I know you do too.
23:31Yeah.
23:31I saw like 24 in theater last year and like I'll rotate between popcorn and pretzel
23:36but now I'm like all popcorn because they won't stop fucking with it.
23:39They'll change the cheese.
23:40They'll just cut up a Bavarian and say it's a pretzel bite.
23:43That's not a pretzel bite.
23:44No, no, no, no.
23:46Stop changing it.
23:48You're like, you're taking money away from yourself and the employees know they're like,
23:51yeah, they're not that good.
23:52Like they just keep doing this.
23:53I don't know.
23:54It's just a mandate.
23:54It's like, well, stop, stop changing it.
23:59Ed, you don't have to apologize to anyone around here.
24:01These are three snack people for sure.
24:04I just like, why, why are they doing this?
24:07It has to be a money thing, right?
24:08Like whenever someone like this comes down.
24:10Initially it was a COVID like supply chain thing.
24:12That's why they changed the cheese to like a really shitty cheese and then they got the
24:15good cheese back and then now they're just doing this.
24:17So it's like, it's, I don't know.
24:18They keep butchering.
24:19They're taking money out of the pot.
24:20To cut up the Bavarian and serve it to a snack boy and call it pretzel bites.
24:25That's disgraceful.
24:26It's dirty work.
24:27That's dirty work.
24:28Yeah.
24:29And I know a guy that is kind of handling stuff like this right now.
24:361600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
24:38If you want to hit him up, he's kind of executive order.
24:41Executive order.
24:42Yeah, we're going to bring the AMC.
24:44I can't even do it.
24:45I need, I need a video of someone holding an umbrella for Ed going into the white house.
24:49Just like that video for the, the, the Turkey hair transplant.
24:53Could you imagine Eddie like sitting, standing next to him?
24:56Like kid rock was standing next to him as he signed the AMC must have their pretzel bites
25:00like 2019 pretzel bites.
25:02I almost want Eddie to put the low bot bandages back on though, just around the side.
25:09That was a look.
25:10That was an absolute look.
25:12Uh, and then that guy saying the fried mice, I was really funny on the AMC tweet.
25:18I don't know.
25:18Yeah, that was funny for fried mice.
25:23There, there's also a non-zero chance.
25:25This actually does get done.
25:26And it goes to the white house.
25:27Cause I mean, Portnoy obviously has the white house is here a little bit.
25:30He's always said how much he loves Ed and he just wants him to be happy.
25:33It's a snack thing.
25:34Ed feel like if we win the championship this year, that doesn't go back to back.
25:37I feel like Dave kind of owes you one to like, get you in the white house there.
25:42That'd be nice.
25:43Do you think we'd ever get a white house visit?
25:45Like we didn't get the invite last year from, from the previous president, but if we were
25:49to go on, Max got one, right?
25:51Yeah.
25:51Max got one from Jerry O'Connell acting as big Dom.
25:55He said, no Hamas.
25:56That was such a good Jerry O'Connell bet.
26:02And then running things out here in the barstool world, we had another mini golf tourney go
26:06on again.
26:08Ed, you were there.
26:09So you saw everything go out live.
26:10I just want to shout out my game.
26:11My guy, make Phil just continues the rise of the barstool ladder.
26:15And I'm just so goddamn proud of that young man right there.
26:17Ed, how was the, how were the vibes in the office for the mini golf tournament?
26:21Good.
26:22I felt terrible for beef.
26:24That was a heartbreaking clip, especially as like a golf guy, you know, he takes that
26:29a little more personally, you know, and this is like an introduction of sorts for him to
26:34meeting a lot of the people in this.
26:35I saw the clip of him talking about on foreplay.
26:37He's like, yeah, I'm excited to like meet everyone.
26:39And they tried to give him a little warning.
26:41They were like, are you prepared for Kirk?
26:43And he said, yes.
26:44But watching that clip, Kirk in his face being like, you fucking choked.
26:47I, it was like, yeah, it's welcome to barstool moment.
26:51I know, man.
26:52And it was just like, like, you know, obviously like Kirk Whitney, all those guys really care.
26:55And obviously the foreplay guys is what they do.
26:57It couldn't have been like White Sox, Dave or someone that it had to be.
27:01Well, White Sox, Dave had a great moment too.
27:04I saw the clip of him, him like throwing his club, but then he slips and the entire green
27:08comes up.
27:08The balls are going everywhere.
27:10The rock moved.
27:11I don't know if you guys did it last year, but those things are death traps.
27:14Like that happens all the time.
27:16Like you're like, you're just like Tom and Jerry.
27:19They staple them down.
27:20I don't know.
27:21I don't know, but they're scary.
27:23That was a great clip.
27:24It was very White Sox, Dave.
27:26That was like, okay, White Sox, Dave back in the mix.
27:28And it happened immediately.
27:29Yeah, exactly.
27:31It was like the perfect clip too.
27:32Cause it gave you the whole shit moment.
27:34It was kind of Brandon Walker with the puck, but like he could have gotten really hurt there
27:37too.
27:38Like the fact it could have been ACLs gone.
27:40That's like tooth falling on the ground.
27:43Yeah.
27:43The call at the race.
27:44Yeah.
27:45We almost had a canceled race.
27:48And the race is happening moments from when we're recording this, correct?
27:52Yes.
27:52It's actually, it's like an hour from right now.
27:54I will be going.
27:55So it's just a mile, one mile race.
27:58One mile.
27:58Yep.
27:59Outside.
28:00Yes.
28:01Outside.
28:02What are the, what are the elements?
28:03I mean, obviously, I know this is again, this is after show.
28:06We'll know this will already have happened live on the yak, but if you haven't seen the
28:11video or whatever, Captain Cons versus White Sox, Dave got into their little battles as
28:16they always do on a dog walk and turn into a foot race, which is, you know, very first
28:21grader of everyone to challenge each other.
28:22Very first grader.
28:24And it has to be outside on the pavement.
28:26Dave is younger, has run marathons.
28:29It's Captain Cons, former D1 athlete, former backup quarterback for army and troop.
28:34Yes, of course.
28:35We respect the troops.
28:38What are the elements like they're at right now in Chicago?
28:40It's a, it's a, it's a gloomy, cloudy, dark, 41 degrees.
28:46Dry though.
28:46We're dry.
28:47Dry.
28:47We're dry right now, but it ran yesterday.
28:49So 41 is nasty though.
28:52We had the Cubs game on in the office yesterday and seeing everyone bundled up to the level
28:57they were, it looked miserable.
28:58Yeah.
28:59It's not, uh, it's not great.
29:00It's been, it's been a cold April so far, but is this third winter we're in right now
29:04in Chicago?
29:04And I don't know where it stands on the Chicago weather scale.
29:07Pretty much.
29:08But like I'm forties, I'm fine with, right?
29:11You're in shorts.
29:12I'm not, I'm not quite ballsy, but like I, uh, I'm like forties is like, it's like the
29:20barometer, you know, that, that, that's right.
29:22I like, like, did you come to work in more than that hoodie?
29:25No, but I interesting.
29:26Yeah.
29:27That's the, I can't do, I can't do hoodie weather like that.
29:29Like I got the Raynaud's with the, with the cold hands 40.
29:33I'm bundled up, layered up.
29:34Are you, I'm pretty much, I'm pretty much hoodie year round now, but.
29:39So Ed, what are you rooting for in this race?
29:41Right.
29:41I mean, content, like you're what, I mean, you're white sucks, Dave guy.
29:44You also have to think like what it's going to do if cons wins, what's going to be like
29:48if white socks, Dave wins for you.
29:50And then when they're battling each other content wise, I, I, there's a million different ways
29:54you can go with Dave, obviously Dave.
29:56The hard part is like Dave, like I've done so many channels.
30:01I've been a part of so many challenges with that guy.
30:02And like, he continually moves the goalposts and everything.
30:05Like now he's like, I don't know if you guys watched the yak yesterday, but he was
30:08like, well, if I, if I beat a six 30 mile, like I win in my head, it's like, no, no, no,
30:14buddy.
30:15Like your personal goal for a mile does not mean you beat the other guy in a foot race,
30:20which is, you know what I mean?
30:22So it's like, it's hard.
30:23Who laid down the challenge in the first place?
30:25Dave to cons.
30:27Well, you say yes.
30:28Dave challenged.
30:29Yeah.
30:30Uh huh.
30:30Like, so he always tries to like spin his way out.
30:33Cause I don't know how his brain works, but like,
30:35I don't think the best scientist in the world could figure out how his brain works.
30:41It's just one of a kind.
30:42He's one of those people that in my life, you meet a couple of people that are just like
30:46one of a kind personalities and the white Sox Dave is on that list.
30:50Never been anyone like him.
30:52You're right.
30:53He's like Ed's muse.
30:54It's, it's fascinating.
30:55And I, he always finds a way just to surprise you.
30:58So I'm sure it's going to end in controversy and in some sort of back and forth.
31:03Uh, how did, and like, wasn't it a very specific challenge the way the, it all panned out?
31:08Like he said, the wording of it all, didn't it kind of make it, he had it, had a race on
31:12pavement outside against cons.
31:14Oh, he's definitely a, a, he has stipulations.
31:18He has a rider when he does these challenges, like we did like a pitch off one 20.
31:23He's like, I want to, I want a dirt field with a mound.
31:26When we found this is a dirt field.
31:28There's no, I was like, Nope, I'm not throwing off anything, but a mound.
31:32This one, he needed a track.
31:34There would be no sidewalk business.
31:36So, yeah.
31:37Fair enough.
31:38Yeah.
31:38Doesn't want to trip on a crack.
31:40Yeah.
31:40I get it.
31:41So, uh, check out the yak if you haven't already and see how that all goes.
31:45And I'm sure we'll have the fought on the dog walk the following week.
31:48And this, I mean, this is when I think Barstool's at its best is when you have little one-on-one
31:53matchups or rivalries or whatever, and it boils over.
31:56I mean, the men's zebras climber annual thing is going to make me laugh until, you know,
32:01the day the company dies.
32:02So I absolutely love it.
32:03And then Dave is such a unique brain.
32:06I can't wait to see how it all goes.
32:07So I'm rooting for a tie.
32:08I want a tie exact tie.
32:10So they can't like say they're arguing about this forever.
32:13That's actually a good point, Bob.
32:15Cause if cons wins, we then have cons.
32:17Like I've made, like, we've talked about him losing an arm wrestling contest to Corey
32:22from the challenge.
32:23Cause we called him captain hard.
32:24Oh, he thought he could do every challenge thing as the best against these, like, against
32:28CT and bananas and these like shredded dudes.
32:31So it's like, but then if Dave wins, you have Dave winning, which is a whole other can of worms.
32:36Like, Ed, what do you want to happen?
32:38Do you have like a preference?
32:39You're, I forgot about the Corey arm wrestling club.
32:42That makes me win even more.
32:46I don't know what I want to happen.
32:48Do you think Dave needs a win right now?
32:50More than con like cons is like crushing it and mini golf and stuff.
32:54He's on the up and up.
32:56I feel like Dave just got knocked down by, uh, the yak crew or even, uh, the barstool backstage
33:04lawsuits.
33:04I think Dave needs a win right now.
33:06Dave could use a win.
33:07You're right about that.
33:08Yeah.
33:08Yeah.
33:09So we're all getting back to address.
33:11I love you, Collins, but I feel like Dave needs this.
33:13So I'll be in Dave's corner just, just to get him back on, get, get Dave's go back.
33:17But I always like seeing Dave humble, but the problem is he doesn't get humbled.
33:20Like he has a fan and a brand span that's like the size of a tadpole.
33:25Hey, we'll forget about this.
33:26Like, it's not that long ago, guys, where he challenged, uh, anybody in the office, he
33:30could lock them down and Jack McCarthy took them like 11.
33:32Oh, I thought you'd be one-on-one.
33:35So it's like, yeah, I, I just, like you said, I guess in the end, you just hope for that
33:41content moment.
33:42Like it's when he gets the bloody face and the Velcro wall or whatever, you just hope
33:46we have an all-time white Sox day moment to gum.
33:49He celebrates early and Collins beats him like one of those marathon videos.
33:53And that's the best part of barstools.
33:55You can never script out what's about to happen.
33:57So check it out today.
33:59Check out the dog walk next week.
34:00My mom's basement.
34:01We're about to record.
34:02Uh, and then we'll see you guys next week on the rundown.
34:04So check it all out.
34:05We'll see you guys next week.
