Welcome back to another episode of Hootin' and Hollerin'.
It's a very special one.
to the college football episode, which was our most viewed and downloaded episode last year.
Shocking, I know.
The Southern podcast.
Hit a home run with college football.
We should do it again now because we've got special guests here from the hit sports comedy series, SEC Shorts, Robert Clay, Josh Snead.
Thanks for joining us.
What's up, guys?
Hey.
It is great to be here.
I am looking forward to both hooting and hollering.
Oh.
And we just, just any kind of video or audio from Josh's, we don't, we'll take anything.
Can you hear me or see me?
Yeah, there's just a little bit of delay.
It's just.
Text you, I'll text you a picture.
We've got a little bit of hearing and a little bit of seeing.
You've got the screen resolution of a Tamagotchi right now.
I'm telling you, the carrier pigeon is bringing your internet to you.
Just bit by bit.
We've had this problem before yeah it's yeah you're i thought you said you were on fiber you are not on fiber sir he's been eating fiber yeah he has nothing to do with the internet he's on actual cloth fibers oh uh, yep look at the big question out of the way here which is is this the year we get sec longs lol well don't answer that i just noticed that's the question y'all get a lot and i was going to throw it out there just in case no i yeah i don't want to get into the the basic questions that like hey how do you come up with these ideas i just want to get right to the nitty-gritty of it why don't we see this type of content in the big 10 or literally any other conference the sec has got numerous content creators and i see one guy doing some big 12 stuff and annie agar does big 10 occasionally and that's that's about all i see i mean i think yeah i mean you know this as well as anybody it is just it's hard the turnaround time it's just like you have to really be dedicated to it and i also don't think the big 10 is just not as deep i mean you've got like probably huge fan bases for michigan and ohio state but i mean let's be real like purdue fans aren't going to be lining up to watch viral content about themselves.
Yeah, I think it's like the fan bases aren't as passionate all the way up and down the team rosters.
I'd say half the fan bases in the Big Ten probably, Care less, you know?
Yeah, that's true.
And I will say, as bad as it gets in the SEC, you still got Mississippi State fans that will take the time to comment and remind me that they suck and then just leave.
I feel like the worst they are.
Yeah, they want you.
Like, hey, you didn't make fun of us this week.
What gives?
They want to be told they suck this year.
But yeah, it's like top to bottom.
Yeah.
Poor State fans.
The other conferences just know.
Yeah, they already know.
And also, too, the Big Ten, it's just tough to—I feel like every week your marquee matchups are just blowouts.
It's just Ohio State or, you know, Michigan year before last just beating up on everybody.
Or now Indiana.
I guess Indiana fans carried a little bit last year, and that ended very abruptly after that Notre Dame game.
But also, too, it's not just the SEC.
There's a ton of talent that was just located in central Alabama.
Dude, this area is the hot spot.
You know, I think Jermaine left to go to Memphis.
But when he was here it was like everybody i don't know what it is but man it's it's hilarious like because no nobody knows where we're based out of they're always like so you're based out of the school that i root for right like you're in on campus correct so yeah when they everybody kind of learns everyone's around that birmingham area sorry the jasper area then it just turns into, turns into like a big central central spot yeah we're considered by some places birmingham metro But, I mean, not in every place.
You've got a Milo's.
You're close, I feel like.
Do you have a Milo's?
Nobody's ever there, but it's still rocking.
That is what the white pages considered us at once.
Birmingham Metro?
That's true.
Yeah.
We used to get a big phone book.
Well, we all go by the white pages, so that's official.
Yeah, that's a very relevant reference.
But, yeah, big time in Birmingham.
I think that is testament, too, to, like, this area.
I used to watch, I don't remember what talking head it was I was watching, but I think it was probably Colin Cowherd would talk about the TV ratings for college football games.
He was always real into that.
And Birmingham Market was always top 10 for games that didn't have any, like, Alabama teams in it.
Like, we're still watching college football.
What's always interesting to me is, like, it's like the Tuesday night game between Western Michigan and BYU, and that's Birmingham will be the top market like always.
It's just, yeah, they just, I think there is like a big love of football.
And if it's not SEC, it's like, well, I'll take where I can get it.
Let's see.
Let's see what the, I don't even know what Western Michigan's mascot is, but let's see what they're up to these years.
Like, yeah, it's, it's crazy.
It's there.
And we, yeah, we still can't hold the stallions.
We can't hold the stallions, man.
No, no.
Yeah.
The stallions are they, are they officially gone now?
You know, I've heard back and forth.
but I'm just assuming they're gone.
Yeah, it's very close.
I think we're lucky to have had him as long as we have.
Yeah, we had him long enough.
I blame it on Jermaine.
He left Birmingham, and so they just followed.
They're like, we can't, we can't, we can't find a new MC for the games.
We're just going to bounce.
Just like, just like Snead did from the feed just now.
Yeah.
Which is awesome.
Well, since he's not here, like, that is the worst internet I think I've ever seen in my life.
We're just going to put like a static picture.
We'll do like the Conan O'Brien bit where we just kind of superimpose somebody else's mouth on him.
Yeah.
Yeah, somebody get a little talking puppet of Josh.
Yeah.
You were saying talking heads and he was just a head.
Yeah, definitely.
Barely at least he was using his good computer microphone so you could barely hear what he was saying too i mean he really came full out for it yeah i was gonna say too you know i feel like this the big fans know that or at least reddit knows that uh you you're an auburn grad and josh is not but he's a he's a bama fan through and through and i think that you keep each other in check Like, I don't think that y'all have ever been biased at all in your videos, but has there been times where you've, you know, this joke is, is, is, I don't know, is probably something you is, is not unbiased, but you just do it in there anyway.
Cause you could, you ever take those moments?
You're like, I'm going to throw a bar at Alabama.
Auburn, Auburn, you get ragged on for, we get called out for making y'all guys are being really hard on Auburn.
And it's like, I mean, yeah, they're in that like weird Tennessee decade of mediocrity where that just, everything is just, you know, you're not the worst, but you're certainly not in the top tier.
And so we poke a lot of fun at that.
We poke a lot of fun at Hugh Freeze and we, we, we definitely hear back from people.
So I think with, with that, when Alabama was riding high, I mean, that was what we would do just constantly.
It was just, I mean, we're just anything that makes Alabama look amazing and they loved it.
They ate it up.
And so, you know, last season was very weird.
I think for everybody when it's like, oh man, you guys, I'm a little worried about you guys.
Yeah.
He's coming back.
Let's see what he's got.
Is he going to be on 16 millimeter?
I've seen nothing right now.
Just blank screen.
This is an improvement.
Help me.
I'm seeing.
All right.
Yeah.
You know, not better.
You know, sort of.
You should go park outside of McDonald's, man, and use their Wi-Fi.
Like these poor Walker County kids during COVID, like having to go to Walmart or the McDonald's Wi-Fi to do their homework.
Nope.
Oh my God, we're, we're tanking your college football episode.
I'm so sorry.
This is already going smoother than most of our episodes anyway.
So you're good.
For sure.
Have you heard back from any coaches or at least like last season?
I know y'all have heard from, or talked to some coaches in the past.
Like lane, I think is, is at least tweeted some stuff.
Yeah.
He's, he's probably the most active one that'll retweet stuff.
I don't actually think he watches it.
I think like his assistant, maybe like, Hey, look at this.
And he just kind of re retweets it.
We got.
This was a few years ago.
Mark Stoops got mad at us for a very pro Kentucky football video.
This was back when we would make stuff for SEC Network.
And the joke was the basketball team was having to do car washes and sell cookies to raise money to buy jerseys because Kentucky football was good.
So no one cared about basketball anymore.
Very tastefully done.
And he got very upset about that and tried to pull it off the air.
stuff.
It was very dramatic.
But luckily, you know, SEC Network, the journalistic bastion of integrity, they're like, no, we're going to run it.
We can't let coaches dictate the content unless it's the Feinbaum show.
Yeah, exactly.
Speaking of, I saw you on the old Feinbaum show.
I got the full front and center treatment.
Good.
I had Josh's internet for that interview and it was an incredible lay.
I think people thought that Paul wasn't getting the jokes and I don't think that he was getting some of them or just They weren't good.
A hundred percent was not getting the joke.
We were trying to, and they were funny.
He was just like, oh, that man's burned out.
Like they work him so hard.
I get everything that I said to the producer right before going on is exactly what he said on air.
So like, if he had notes, he didn't read them.
He just got whatever came in his ear and just repeated it.
That was it.
It was like, ah, yes.
So next question.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's lost his fastball a little bit.
I think just being worked to death out at ESPN.
I do love, he just lets you go though.
I do appreciate that.
Like, he doesn't try to redirect you.
It's just like, oh, you want to go down this path?
Well, we'll let you go.
So if you have the mentality of an insane fine bomb caller, I mean, you can thrive on that show.
And that's the only place it'll work.
Oh, yeah.
That's why he's got, like, man, I don't know if you used to listen to him when he was on AM radio.
Didn't he?
Oh, yeah.
When he was old school.
Yes.
Like, man, that show, I mean, he still can be a little bit critical on his current show, but man, back in the day, Mike Dubose loses two games and Kleinbaum's like, you're going to get fired.
I'm going to make sure of that.
Yeah.
The seat of that.
Yeah.
I mean, he's had a show for a long time and has only, like, you know, gone up, I guess, in popularity, sort of.
So, and he's doing something right.
I don't watch him that much anymore.
He's in every documentary about, like, college football.
He's always one of the talking head interviews.
He's like the, you know, in the VHS, I love the 80s.
They always have the one person they end up with to provide content.
And that's Spinebomb for every college football question ever.
It's the same, like, three comedians they always call upon that barely know every ounce of pop culture ever.
You were saying that about Mark Stoops, and I was just thinking this last night.
Have you watched any of that, any given Saturday yet?
No.
I had some people text me.
I didn't know it was out yet.
I didn't either.
Apparently, like, this week, it just dropped.
Yeah, it just dropped, like, yesterday or the day before.
Yeah, Tuesday night.
So, I want to.
I mean, they were at some pretty big games when they were following teams.
So, I hope it's cool.
I don't know.
Like, they do that sort of drive-to-survive editing style for it.
I'm curious how that looks.
You know, Diego Pavia running all over Alabama and what they do.
I don't know.
I definitely want to check it out.
Yeah, I binged, I think, the first three episodes last night.
And that third one, I believe his third one, is all about Diego and Vandy playing Bama.
And then on the other side of the coin, they also show Arkansas upset in Tennessee at home.
But that one is all around Sam Pittman, which just confirmed, like, I just love Sam Pittman even more.
That's just the most, like, that's everybody's pawpaw, I think, is Sam Pittman.
Like, every coach, it's really interesting.
They do a good job of highlighting the coaches because they start with Brian Kelly, and he's like, I was going to go into politics.
You're like, yeah, I can see that.
And yeah, his whole bit, it doesn't make me love Brian Kelly at all.
It's not doing anything for at least his image, I think.
Shane Beamer makes me like him.
He's not authentic.
Like, Shane Beamer is authentic.
Like, I feel like Shane Beamer is being himself.
Brian Kelly is being the version he thinks LSU recruits will respond to.
It's just like, do less, man.
Do less.
Oh, I mean, yeah.
If that wasn't obvious with that attempt at a Southern accent when he got there.
My God.
He was right out of the Hillary Clinton playbook on that one.
Oh, gosh.
No kidding.
That was bad.
But anyway, I was noticing, though, that they'll show some other coaches, other players, but they don't show Mark Stoops.
Now, he may come in later because I think one of the last episodes features Kentucky.
They go out of their way, it feels like not to show Mark Stoops in that documentary.
Interesting.
Yeah.
And he's, he's, what is he like?
I mean, the man is really threading the needle, like Gus Malzahn style of, like, you're on the hot seat, now you've got to reprieve, now you're on the hot seat, now you've got to reprieve.
It's like, he, he can dial it in when he needs to, it seems like, but I think even Kentucky fans are kind of like, all right, man, like, eight wins is cool, but I don't, I think that might be your count.
Yeah.
They've got, they've got a lot of patience over there, another losing season.
But, yeah.
Anyway, speaking of coaches here, I know y'all had a chance to work with some coaches while you were doing some stuff for SEC Network, but you've got a whole new crop of coaches now.
If you had your choice of all of the SEC coaches right now, which one would you want to make a video with if they all had to say yes?
Even more students.
Oh, man.
Gosh.
I mean, you've got to feel like Lane Kiffin would be the one who would be more energetic about it, like excited about it.
Maybe Shane Beamer.
He seems like he would be pretty excited to play along.
He's done some stuff with their video crew up there with Justin King, but man, I'm also trying to think who would be like the worst one.
Stoops or Brian Kelly, for sure.
It's gotta be Stoops.
He's just like, no personality.
He looks like an egg when he just like is being interviewed.
I don't think Stoops watches comedy, like at all.
I think he just sits down and watches World War II documentaries I was about to say, he's like that one movie where the dude watches General Patton all the time.
Yeah.
That was Ron Swanson.
Yeah, that's it.
That's all.
Or just film.
He just re-watches film of Kentucky losing, and then that's it.
I think I'm going to dabble back into 2010 year.
That sounds good.
Yeah.
I feel like Josh Hopper would be a fun one to do something with.
He kind of gives off that vibe.
Yeah.
I think, yeah, especially if they're winning and he's, he seems like he could, he could be really scary if, if it's like after a loss, just kind of getting the vibe from post game interviews and stuff.
Like the ones who get really upset after a loss historically, man, Steve Spurrier all day, like, oh my gosh, that would be a dream.
I was so jealous that y'all got to work with him when you were with network, but then, then I heard that he didn't read the script at all.
We that we were so excited to do it to like actually do a bit with him and they approved the script his agent and everybody and then he walked into the room to shoot it and he was like yeah i ain't saying any of this stuff we're just like we just like shrank because it was just like a little joke where he was like making fun of tennessee and he actually said to us you know so Tennessee's my third favorite team.
And we're like, what?
This is not true.
He was going through like a rehabilitation phase where he was trying to get Tennessee fans to like him.
And so, yeah, he didn't do the bit and we were so depressed, but like, man, when he was like coaching and just every press conference was just a gold mine of just zingers.
Oh, he would be amazing to do it then.
Oh, it was the best.
Just trying to lay low and not get people mad at him.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know what he's hiding from.
He's got a cush job.
I think he's still at the University of Florida, got an office there, some made-up title.
So I don't know what.
I mean, he always got the Orlando Apollos to go back to when they come back.
Oh, God.
Did you ever go to a Birmingham Iron Game when he was the coach?
All he did, when they were on offense, he would have the play sheet and he would be calling plays.
And then as soon as they punted or scored, he would just sit on the bench and just randomly talk to people.
He did not care less that's so good oh well who do we have here.
Psych actually that's a little bit this is the best you've sounded in looks yet this is way better, I'm in the airport now in the waiting room.
Anyway, Robert just got done ranking his top SEC coaches from the 1970s from 20 down.
So if you don't mind, go ahead and start now.
Just pick it up from there, Josh.
Yeah, well, if you didn't put in...
There it is.
I'm just kidding.
Wait, the podcast listeners won't get that joke.
This is good that you came back in Because I want to talk for a second As transition to talking about this upcoming season And that's Swagger Built But did y'all call it Swagger Built Or the internet dub it Swagger Built I think everybody just had different names for it That's my favorite, that's what I call it The university didn't want to call it The Vandy Pimp for obvious reasons That's fair Then when we got to the stadium, And before I came out They were like, it's the Vandy Pimp I was like, that's the thing I expected To hear over the stadium How much on that video did you have written for Josh to do in that moment and how much of it was just like, let's just, let's just see what you do.
Let's just sling the doors open and you just dance.
Yeah.
A lot of it was, you know, so I, you, you probably already know this, but I won the Dancing with the Stars local edition in Birmingham.
A lot of people were talking about it.
I don't remember which Fox six anchor you beat out, but you did.
They'd already gone through all the local anchors for that we were down to like it was like me and some people who were outside of the theater when they started the event so um but when you have a history of winning dance competitions like i do you just turn on the camera and that was it now we asked originally the first video we were doing it i asked our actress hannah kirkendahl like hey can you pimp walk she was just like absolutely not that was the end of the discussion so then you're like oh man this might be inappropriate so i text josh hey man i don't want to force you to do this or anything but can you pimp walk i think he just responded with like an emoji of a guy like this full swagger that's all you need so he was good to go from the beginning so we almost got hannah as the vandy pimp very very close to it yes now i would love to see what that she's already got too many recurring characters so we need to spread the love out to uh to poor josh who's been forgotten about yeah and that just muddies the water to have hope as pimp vandy i mean how would you how would you pull how would you have two people playing the same character in the video that doesn't even it's not logical so.
What was that like, though, going to Vandy?
Because you were there, they put you on the Jumbotron.
Like, was there, would they roll out the red carpet for you, or was it just kind of like, you meet us back here at this time?
And then.
No, yeah, it was cool.
We got to, they had like a few things they wanted to do for in-stadium stuff.
But other than that, they let us, after Vandy scored a touchdown one time, we jumped up into the student section, and a guy held me up on his shoulders.
And I was like jumping through the student section, and everybody was like going nuts and stuff.
Before the game though I got to come out of the tunnel with like pyrotechnics and smoke and they played the music for me and everything and it just it was like right before the team came out the Vandy on the field and the the mascot was dressed like I was and everything like it was it was awesome that's incredible I feel like they showed a little bit of it on ESPN I don't remember who was vandy playing that game south carolina that was the one man it was like they they were really cool because you know we were trying to film stuff for a video too with them out there but the kind of the rule was the game had to be close and if the blowout started happening they would kind of usher us back onto the stadium and so you kept it within a touchdown for most of the game and we had all these things we wanted to do with josh you know sitting them out with the fan and everything and then south carolina went up by two scores and then they were like no in the tunnel go go go go and so we thought we were done and then they scored a touchdown to make it seven again and that's when he went to the student section the high water mark where it was like they're gonna win this game and then i think south carolina scored like 28 unanswered oh yeah so there was a there was a at some point in maybe the third or fourth quarter where they were just like looking for things to throw me out and do.
And it was like, you know how they do a long timeouts?
They'll like have a giveaway in the stadium or something.
Well, a whole row was getting like some type of barbecue sauce.
And so they were like, oh, we'll just have the bandy pimp presented to them.
And so we go out there and as we're lining up, South Carolina scores again.
And I could hear over the radio, they were like, pull the pimp, pull the pimp.
Down.
Down so they pulled us back under the the stadium and uh i think that was it oh well i i enjoyed every appearance of swagger i know that y'all were very careful about not overdoing it at least it felt like that like you didn't want to run it in the ground you did a good job you left people wanting more which i think is always the goal, Is there a chance if vandy goes on another run and hey Diego's back anything could happen Do you do the swagger belt make a another appearance the season if they can pull off a big upset?
Yeah, this is one of those things where I could the beginning to see or at the end of last season We were just like all right.
He's just he's dead.
We're not gonna do it anymore, but you can't kill him You get you get halfway through the season and you're like, yeah, is there anything happening and Vanderbilt wins the game?
We will have so what do you think?
But, like, let's be real.
I mean, like, Diego is talking so much trash this offseason.
They're going to go 0-12.
Yeah, he's talking so much.
He's laying on thick.
And I – well, they show – like I said, they show him a good bit in that Any Given Saturday.
And it doesn't really make me love him anymore.
It's not really helping his image, I don't think.
He's out running around with Kid Rock now, too.
Is he?
Oh, gosh.
What?
Yeah, he posted on his Instagram with Kid Rock.
the other day.
Oh, man.
This is like step one in the Johnny Manziel.
No, he passed on.
He's a celebrity to waste your time with instead of practice.
Yeah, we've seen this before.
Yeah, and that's his idol, right?
Hadn't he said several times that's his, he modeled his whole career, like his football career after Johnny Manziel and watched him beating Alabama repeatedly.
Oh, man.
I don't know.
He just like, I mean, he runs so much and I think teams are not going to be surprised now.
I want them to win.
I want them to win it all, but man, I think they're going to have a hard time of it, even with him because he might get knocked out in the second game just because people are going to be coming after him.
Did you guys watch that Johnny Manziel documentary when he's in the NFL and they track how much you look at the playbook on your iPad or whatever?
They track and they were like, it was a zero.
He pawned it.
They were like, hey, do you want the charger?
He's like, no, no, no, I'm good.
He sold it to Belichick.
Well, going into this season, then, talking about what we got coming up, I felt like last year you at least had the main storyline thread of it's Texas and Oklahoma's first year, so every game in the SEC for them meant something.
It wasn't just a normal game on schedule.
That's over now, so they've both been in it for a year.
What are y'all seeing as the main storyline for this season in the SEC?
I would say it's got to be Arch coming in to start for a whole year.
I mean, the buildup for that has been insane.
And so just seeing what he ends up doing, is he equal to the task or is he somewhat disappointing?
I think that's a big thing.
And then, man, I also think, yeah, it's like DeBoer, where do they go, man?
Because that was such a weird season for Alabama.
Like, are they going to be, his recruiting has gotten a lot better.
So is that going to reflect on the field or are they going to regress a little bit?
I mean, I think those are the two for me.
Josh, what do you think?
I always like seeing something that comes out of nowhere in the middle of the season.
Something like Vanderbilt last year.
There's always something like that in the SEC that happens that you're not expecting.
And that's always fun.
So we react to whatever happens each week, and I think I'm just excited to see what random thing happens.
You know, I'm sure something, some team, no matter how good Texas A&M starts off, they're going to end up at 8-5 no matter what.
So if they start off 0-5 or 5-0, they will end up at 8-5.
So that's probably not going to be it.
But, you know, something else exciting.
Does the board immediately go in the hot seat if they lose to Vanderbilt in Tuscaloosa?
Oh, God, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, man.
Like, maybe even.
Does he finish the season?
They may not pull the trigger but yeah he's uh we're talking five bomb a and m days on that one like for sure i think i feel like you've got for you can the audience ask questions can we ask you a question i mean you can make it quick so i you know when you were talking about the season and everything you know we when we first started we were very anti doing the same thing again so that meant like doing the same characters we would never do that and then all of a sudden, the last few years we've been trying to do it and it seems like the audience is just like.
Exponentially more interested when you bring back people so i'm just curious when you're doing your characters like at what point do you determine yes this one is in the bank we're going to bring him back or no we're gonna we're gonna let this one slide or not really messing around with that type of vibe anymore what is your bar for bringing them back oh 100 the comment section 100 yeah if they if they sometimes don't even notice a difference and so it's like well we're not doing that again but if it if they react positively and i keep seeing like a bunch of comments about.
You know that one character especially if it's not one of the main players alabama georgia texas it gets a lot of attention a lot of comments and that's bringing back you just let the audience decide and that's the man that's the best thing in the world when you when you get one you can lock in because it makes next week and the week after a lot easier or or but then like like you were saying how do you not let darth mazoo get like overused kind of thing like that we were struggling with that with Vanderbilt because every week they're like oh man I can't wait to see how he responds to Oklahoma and Auburn and you're like what yeah it's because it's like yeah I think you throw the needle too there I think it's the same thing with Swagger Belt as you've latched on this character to a team that will not run the table like as much as I would love to see Vandy do it and Missouri for comedy effect though they're gonna let you down so I don't have to worry about like darth miz's like absolute you know reign of terror over the sec it would be fun but it would but it's not gonna happen god it'd be great i i would just say um yes you can go by what the people want or you can force feed them big 10 accents at least one to twice a year because you think it's funny but no one else does i'm just saying just think about it i love still one of my I love the Big Ten shorts, but didn't y'all did a Pac-12 thing one time, or was it introducing the new Pac-12 teams to the Big Ten?
I think it was that.
Oh, man.
Yeah, I don't know.
We've done so many.
I don't know.
Maybe that sounds like something we would do.
I just remember there was a California surfer accident for USC that was fantastic.
Or maybe it was just a fever dream of mine.
Maybe I just imagined.
So there's an idea for it.
Oh, wait.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, it was the Big Ten show in the Big Ten basement.
And then, yeah, I guess USC was coming on to introduce himself.
And, yeah, I mean, we may have broke like 600 views on that video.
So it really was lift up big moments every year we every year we're like how do we work the show into this season and it's you got to give the people what they don't want exactly well there's there's always one style of video or something you want to do that event you've got to do it for yourself you know don't run in the ground just get it out of your head and then move then you can move on and think about other things but at least for me it's sometimes like i just gotta do it let's just do it and i know it'll bomb at least i'll get it out of my head and we'll be done with.
Absolutely well yeah i feel like for us it's like if you want to do like a concept like you know back in this other thing days y'all did the uh twilight zone you know the the real like the whole nine yards the the film angles the black and white the the camera styles and so every now and again we'll try to do like a instead of a good joke it's just like i really want to do a sci-fi episode and so you just do it and you have zero jokes in it and it's like we probably I should have just said a conference room.
Kentucky forever one where it was like, it was like a four minute build up for one joke and the joke wasn't even all that good.
But it was just, it was very, it was like very dramatic in like the whole setup and everything.
And it was, we love, we're like, he was like, Friday night lifestyle where like, yeah, they were like, this group were sitting around a campfire back in the eighties when the last time Florida or Kentucky beat Florida and they're like, every year when they They beat Florida.
Let's come back and reunite.
And so the joke was they hadn't done it in 30 years.
They lost track of each other.
And so the grand finale, the grand punchline, hold onto your seats, boys.
It was, he calls his buddy and the guy doesn't remember him and thinks he's like a spam call.
That's why Mark Stoops hates us.
He does.
I like it.
Four minutes to get to that joke though four minutes oh and it was like we colored our hair for the 80s we had like mullet wigs and then when we're old people like we like spray painted our hair with like party city spray or whatever so we went out put glasses on do y'all have that how how much is a party city going out of business going to affect your operation because we're taking a hit on this oh no see i'm i'm strictly it's tough for me out here because i'm not anywhere near a party city to begin with.
So I haven't been able to rely on them since I've left at the Southern thing.
So it's like Amazon, if I can think ahead or you better get real crafty at Walmart.
Here's how Mondays for me are like this.
I sit in my truck in the Walmart parking lot and it's usually around eight o'clock.
So I watch y'alls and then like, damn, that's good.
And I was like, all right, let me go see if I can, you know, make a boat out of poster board in Walmart now.
And I don't.
It just, it looks like crap.
And that's it.
He has on Craft Corner.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I can't craft.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I know.
You got your, you got your craft supervisor, Lisa.
I know she got a cricket.
I know it.
I know a cricket.
I know y'all cricket buddies.
Yeah.
Y'all, y'all on it.
Oh, dude.
Game respect.
Game on that, man.
Cricket stuff.
You get some cricket tips from her.
She's all about it.
It's back to school time, man.
She's been, it's been fired up.
The cricket the ladies at hobby lobby know me by name oh yeah they hey let me ask you this because i just saw this yesterday and i was like i gotta ask robert about this will you be subscribing to war eagle plus well you know what that is oh man i get to break the news to you so i don't know if other schools have done this yet this is the first i've seen of it but auburn is doing their own subscriber like only video service where the proceeds go i think to the athletes.
It's like their own in-house NIL thing.
But it's just like a I mean, it's like it sounds like Oracle Plus.
It's just subscribe and then get behind-the-scenes video content.
And Gus had a whole pitch for it.
That's the video.
Gus very, I mean, not Gus.
Freeze.
They're all...
I was on Gus team that.
Gus took time off from Florida State's offense to come tell you about Oracle Plus.
No, Freeze did it.
Very enthusiastically pitched it.
I couldn't believe it.
I was like, this is going to be Everybody's gonna do this now.
So you're basically asking, am I going to pay 20 bucks a month to watch some freshman intern make a video on how the kickers change their shoes every game or something?
Probably not.
100%.
I am adamantly opposed to donating money to an NIL collective.
I think that's the worst use of anyone's money.
Really?
Save that for the schools and the companies need to do that.
I think if you're going to be hitting up some poor guy coming off his shift and then being like, hey, man, we need $300 to maybe lock in this five-star he'll leave next year, I think that's a hard pass.
I think that's a privileged Auburn fan take because you've got Yellowfellas pockets that he can dig into.
Bama fans.
He also got his coaching hires too.
Yeah, he picks them good.
But Bama fans are really having to rely on the collective.
At the gas station across the street from here a couple weeks ago, I got a bottle of Yay Alabama water, which goes to the collective.
Like, they're selling bottled water now that goes into the NIL collective, which is genius, I think.
Genius?
Now, however, we don't drink a lot of water in Alabama now.
If they did sweet tea, they'd be on, like, just sugar water.
Yeah, Yay Alabama Mountain Dew Code Red, and then you start making some real dough.
Don't look out.
Yeah, boy.
But sell it in a bottle at the gas station we have next to the Cokes, just bottled gravy.
Yeah.
In a squirt bottle.
Yeah.
Yes.
I think that was an SNL sketch one time or something in a squirt bottle.
This is something I've been working on.
If you had to add, you know, we're not done with expansion.
There's no way that we're done with expansion.
But looking across the rest of the NCAA, like what team or two teams do you think are a good fit for the SEC that you would really just selfishly that you would like to make content about?
And you know that audience is hungry for it.
Because I know there are a few teams out there that are always asking for videos and it's like, I don't want to watch ACC football, so you're not going to get that.
But if they join, then they'll get it.
All right.
Swanee, for sure.
So, oh yeah.
Welcome back.
Yeah, Swanee.
We already got the uniform.
Like, bring him back.
Like, get their club football team out there against LSU, and I think the content will ride itself.
And the kids would have a great time anyway.
I mean, it'd be a good experience for them.
And then, you know, we'd have CTE protocol on the sideline ready to go after the game.
And I think, I think they'd be good, man.
I watched this really interesting, a short video on YouTube about why Georgia Tech left the SEC.
And after watching that, I felt so bad for Georgia Tech that I want to bring them back.
All, all of the whole reason was that Bear Bryant wanted to offer scholarships to like, you know, a hundred recruits and then cut the ones that didn't make the team and just say, bye.
And Georgia Tech was like, no, we should only offer if they're going to make the team.
And then all the SEC was like, that's stupid.
So they left because they just wanted to honor scholarships.
And I was like, man, that's tough.
Like, we need to bring you guys back.
But then again, I don't know.
We went to their stadium this offseason.
It's like, you know, it looks like someone forgot about it for a long time.
And then said, oh, you guys want to play football?
No, no, we got to see him.
Yeah.
It's rough.
I have a soft spot for him too, but they just don't have the fan base in Georgia.
But they got some cool uniforms when they do the honeycomb jerseys.
Those are pretty sweet.
Did you see their ditch of navy?
Welcome to ACC talk here.
Their ditch of navy blue is their color.
And I'm like, well, what's the color?
Yeah, we all saw that.
Yeah, didn't we?
We all saw that.
Okay internet boy whatever you don't know about war eagle plus but you know that georgia tech is shifting its uh primary colors i've been uh i've been dabbling been dabbling with uh some other teams you know so what what what's their what are they replacing it with, i think black maybe or not replacing it with anything it's just they're just gonna have like gold and white maybe all gold jerseys i i don't know it's not that's not bad i don't know I don't know.
Bring Swanee in, though.
Let's do that.
What about you, Matthew?
What are you thinking?
What are the fan bases that are hitting you off?
Don't say Clemson or Florida State.
Come on.
That's it.
Those are the two big ones in the comment section.
And those two probably culturally the best fit.
My dark horse is Virginia Tech.
I think Virginia Tech is a good fit.
I would check them over North Carolina for sure.
Oh, hands down.
Inner Sandman and the SEC.
Oh, I don't want to have a North Carolina because they're basketball.
Well, SEC doesn't need that anymore, Josh.
Please.
We are a basketball conference.
Yeah, come on.
Real quick, I don't think I got this one in the...
We had some great lighting rounds we'll get to in a second.
I think it was the last one, though.
CBS football, are we entering the second or third season now of SEC on ABC, ESPN, or whatever?
I can't remember.
Second.
It feels like an eternity already.
Do you miss CBS, or do you just miss the theme music?
I just miss the theme.
I miss a few things.
Yeah, like Josh said, the theme music for sure.
And I miss the big game of the week being done at 7 o'clock so you could start writing.
Like now the big game is not done until 11 p.m.
And so you can't do anything.
So you have to just wait.
And man, I never realized how much those like four hours made a huge difference.
Because I'm like, you know, we're shooting on Sunday.
And we're just like, why is everything going till midnight?
This isn't used to happen.
And it was like, oh, it's because we didn't get to write a script night before.
Okay, great.
I have to wake up Sunday and then see what happened in the game Saturday because I was asleep, It's late, and we're only getting older.
We'll be doing SEC content at 65 years old, do you think?
Is this like, man, the nursing home is not ready for the double team up here.
Yeah, the three of us sitting around a retirement home trying to tell all the other people we used to be famous on the internet.
That's what George says.
Everybody says it.
Yeah.
As the AI robots feed us our mush.
Man uh real quick though josh have you watched any of that any given saturday yet on on netflix no i haven't uh robert was telling me about it though so i i want to i want to check it out, yeah i was trying to get y'all's take on it we'll talk about later it's been it's been interesting i think it's good for the conference that they're doing stuff like that hopefully i don't know if this is a one-off they're going to get to do it again next year but, that's pretty good stuff the the production company this past i guess summer early summer the production company reached out and they were like, hey, we're going to be doing an episode on Vanderbilt beating Alabama.
And the director of the episode really wants to use footage from the Vanderbilt king.
Can we use this footage, please?
And so I'm just like, oh, that sounds awesome.
Sure, here you go.
And I took like an hour to remove the music, to cut it down, to send them their high quality file.
And I'm like, well, this is going to be pretty great.
The people who have watched it says it's not in it.
So they didn't use it.
So I was just like, okay, great.
That's fine.
I sat there over the weekend.
Maybe they'll squeeze it in.
And yeah, it was just the Diego show.
And Clark Lee, which is a great, I got some respect for him watching the video.
He gets me fired up for Vandy football, which has never happened before, so.
No, he's a good dude.
We liked him a lot.
Did y'all get to meet him?
Sorry, you're a crappy internet also.
I'm the only one with high-quality internet where you can hear.
No, well, no, you broke up there for a second.
So, hold on.
We didn't want to say anything, but it was a little iffy.
So, y'all get to sit down with Clark Lee when y'all went to Vandy?
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I just like his flow.
Yeah, he wouldn't talk to us.
I think he knows about us because I think an assistant coach said that they watched it.
When I was in the tunnel about to go out, the coaching staff walked through and they were all like yelling, like, oh, so he walked by and was like laughing about it.
So he knows what it is.
A grown man in his 40s wearing a kid's cape.
You know what?
I agree.
But when you walk out of the tunnel and like flames and stuff are shooting off, you're like, this is the coolest thing that's ever happened.
He's a fan.
So you guys are technically Hoot and Holler's first repeat guest.
Yeah, technically, yeah, from three years ago.
Yeah, four years ago, even though it was just Matt on there at the time.
But I had a question for Robert.
Did you ever get one of those good ice makers?
I did.
That's hilarious.
Yes, it's on my countertop right now.
What a callback.
One of these $8,000 ones.
That's what I thought at that time period of my life I was going to have to get.
But Walmart and Costco sell a very, very good nugget ice maker for like 250 bucks.
So it's still a price to pay for ice.
But man, it's like, I would encourage your audience to go out there and get the Frigidaire ice maker.
Brought to you by Frigidaire, the best ice maker in the business here.
If things don't work out with Renaissance Bank, you've got a fallback there with Frigidaire.
We don't all have cubed ice before.
Sometimes.
It's just not what you need.
Check out the affiliate link robert have you named your ice maker yet have i named it yeah i should call it like elsa or something you know like frozen or something name like a boat yeah it's bad luck to have an ice machine without a name.
The vandy pirate coming next season to episode where you tell that'll be that that thank you for the idea you got vandy pimp i'll take whatever i can get on vandy he stole vandy pirate right it from under this truck.
Vanderbott's not working.
That doesn't even make sense.
Also, logistically, it's too much work.
I've got to be charged.
Yeah, exactly.
I've got to get it to stand up.
I can't do that.
I've got to make another boat out of construction.
Yeah.
Come on.
I don't have the glue for that.
Before we get into lightning round, any other questions before we lock them in for this exciting finish here?
We got lightning round.
I asked the audience, so I got a lot of submissions.
I asked them for their most insane college football take, and I got some that were pretty lukewarm.
I got a few that felt like criminal confessions, but then I got some solid ones, too.
So I'm going to go through these.
We're going to give ourselves 10 minutes here to get through them.
And you could just, you know, hoot, agree with it, holler on it, you know, whatever your opinion is.
If you've got one, throw it out there.
Here we go.
Brian says, spiking the ball to stop the clock is the literal definition of intentional grounding.
Ooh.
I mean, I'm going to go with, I guess, a hoot means I'm agreeing with it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'll hoot on that one as well.
Yeah, hoot.
I mean, Bo Nix against Arkansas.
All your Arkansas fans will probably agree with that one.
No doubt about that.
Yeah, that's a touchy subject there.
Yeah, no, I agreed.
I never thought of it like that, but it is.
So if they want to ban that, that'd be interesting.
Noah says, Bama Stadium isn't even in the top 15 toughest places to play.
I mean, wow, that's a tough, I mean, I think Brian Denny, you got, if it's like a night game against a top 15 opponent, I would holler, but, you know, a day game against Arkansas, yeah, for sure, because the students are leaving at the end of the first quarter.
Yeah.
Well, who is when you agree?
No, he, am I messing up the hoot in the hole?
No, no, no, no.
He got it right.
He's right.
He's saying, he's saying if Bama's got it locked and it's a day game against not a, not a top 25, top 15 opponent, they're not really rocking the place.
Who is?
Yeah, but still you want to go for the, the Danny dogs and the Mr.
Bright side's worth all of it.
So, I mean.
You've got to go get away.
So you do think they are one of the top 15 toughest places to play all the time, Josh?
Yeah, I think no matter what.
All the time.
Okay.
Yeah, Georgia Southern really was really scary.
I was at that game.
Not a great time.
Speaking of entertaining football, Colin says his take is Ivy League football is more entertaining than the SEC.
When was the last time you watched an Ivy League football game?
Wow.
And, well, I was going to say how, but it is on the SBN app.
You'll see it when you're scrolling sometimes on Saturday.
Like, oh.
You just got to scroll through women's tennis and golf together.
They play on Saturday?
Do they play on Saturday?
It seems to me like that would be one of those.
They would play on like Wednesday.
But yeah, nothing more exciting than watching white nerds play football.
Yeah, they probably just play behind the school or something.
Yeah.
Now, I feel like football.
It's a little Nerf whistle ball they play with.
Yeah.
I feel like football, not that entertaining.
Ivy League basketball, however, when they get to the tournament, that can be entertaining.
That makes some noise.
Dude, Yale is a top-tier team every single year, and they're going to take out the teams that they need to take out.
Princeton is always good because they bore people to death.
In basketball?
Probably football, too.
I bet that guy thinks lacrosse is football.
It's possible.
Yeah, I bet that's it.
Dude, that's a real controversial take there, Colin.
I like that one.
Or soccer.
Yeah, I don't think Colin even believes that himself.
This is interesting.
Diana says all kicking should be done by position players.
Oh.
God.
I mean, that's pretty much what Auburn did last year.
You saw how that turned out.
Like, that would be a holla on my end.
I think you take it a step further, and I think the opposing team should be able to choose who kicks your field goals.
Oh, wow, yeah.
I like that.
That's a good idea.
I'll hoot that one.
Terrence Cody coming to kick the game with a field goal.
That would be fantastic.
Yeah, let's see how you do Terrence on the other end.
Okay, he probably misses it, but if he hits it, people tear that place apart.
Yes, no doubt.
That'd be the most exciting thing you ever saw.
There's a Daniel Moore painting of it the next day.
Absolutely.
And it'd be so good.
Dominique says the best rivalry in football right now is Florida LSU.
It's the most cursed rivalry, I think.
And I don't think Florida's been holding up their end of the deal on that, though.
No, it's a curse.
Florida, Alabama's been pretty good for the past few years.
Yeah, Alabama-LSU is a much better rivalry, I think.
Florida's just getting, just choking or blowing it by throwing shoes across the field.
Like, it's not fun for me as a Florida fan to watch that game.
That was, yeah, that was the greatest moment in college football history, though.
So I guess they do have that going for them.
That was the moment I was like, oh, we are.
We're bad forever, I think.
How is that guy, was it Marco Wilson?
How is he viewed by Florida fans even today?
Do you have an opinion on that?
I just personally, I mean, they're all, at the end of the day, these are young men.
They're going to make mistakes.
It was just a dumb thing to do.
In the heat of the moment, you're going to do dumb things.
I don't fault him for it, but it was dumb.
It was very dumb.
The best name for a player.
It's so good.
Yes.
There you go.
Jair says, if you don't tailgate, you don't deserve entry into the game.
Man, all the tailgates are like corporate.
Like we provide the food and the TV and it's in a white sterile tent.
Like I don't, I don't blame people for not digging that.
So if the, if the president wants to come to the gang now, they're like, all right, you got to get here an hour and a half before time and play cornhole with this guy over here without his shirt on.
Yeah.
And, hey, if I got to get my 12-year-old drunk to get in the game, I'll do that.
Yeah.
Well, it wouldn't be the first one.
Come on, Jimmy.
You're only six 90 nights deep.
But it's going to get us in.
Tailgating is work.
It is a commitment for the – not even just the day.
Sometimes it's the not before as well.
So that's a lot.
I also feel like every game I go to is 1130.
And it's like we're going to eat a Chick-fil-A biscuit at a tent.
And then you got to go in immediately.
Yes.
Yes.
Stone Cold Sober for football.
It's Danny says coaches should have to enter the transfer portal as well.
Okay.
I like that.
I would agree with that just to have to read what their Instagram, I'm entering the transfer portal thing would be.
What would Brian Harsin say, after much reflection, I'm taking my talents to AutoZone, bros.
See ya.
I'm taking mine back to the house in Idaho just to tweet at Auburn for the next three years.
I'm taking the company car with me.
He brings whoever is closest to the Robert Trent Jones golf trip.
What if instead of the transfer portal, they get exiled to a team?
Oh, that would be – that was one of the big comments was about relegation, and that's been thrown around in like a pie-in-the-sky dream.
But relegating coaches would be fun.
Yeah.
That would be great.
I mean, Jeremy Pruitt, I feel like, is living the dream right now.
He's going to be D coordinator at Hoover all over again with his rap sheet.
I feel like Auburn's been on the receiving end of that for years now.
Yeah.
Yes, 100%.
This is not a good suggestion.
Ty says the defending national champions should have every game at home, I assume just the following season, when they're defending it.
But that's a lot.
I think the last thing that these teams at the top need is another unfair or playing advantage, I say flip it, and they play no home games the next year.
They can play all the way.
Dude, Alabama at La Monroe.
It's got to happen.
Well, God, they went to South Florida already, so what's stopping them?
Hey, man, if Missouri can do it, everybody can.
Craig says both bands should be allowed to play whenever they want.
Let the people go crazy with noise.
Okay, I'm saying this as a former four-year member of the Auburn University marching band, so you could say my credit on this is pretty high.
I'm totally against that because what it would devolve into, because they let you do that in high school, and if you listen to any high school band, they just like, it's just like they pick like one ugly dissonant chord.
It's like what the LSU band did during that seven overtime A&M game where they're just like, like when A&M's coming to play.
It's awful.
It's not even like music.
Hard disagree.
Hard pass.
I say...
Get rid of both bands and turn it all over to the DJ.
The AT&T DJs, roll them out there at halftime.
We do need, at least, have y'all been to a Hawks game before?
Yeah, like in Atlanta?
Is that Hawky or something?
No, the Atlanta Hawks.
I'm kidding.
Yeah, that's fair.
They don't do very well.
I'm a Georgia Tech man.
You know this.
It's great because, well, I think every NBA game, They've got music going all game long.
They just kind of drop it down to just like a beat while the action happening.
And then they'll play like the whole music in timeout or dead ball situations.
But at halftime at the Hawks, they get a rapper to come out.
And there's a whole halftime performance from some, I think, it was like two or three years ago, I saw Sexy Red perform.
The Sexy Red gentleman.
Wow.
Can you imagine the lady who like balances the plates on the unicycle having her own DJ out there?
That would be like the ultimate halftime show.
Yes.
That's Red Panda, bro.
Let's not.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
I got to put some respect on the name.
Please.
I think there's something to that.
I think you'd lose a lot of season ticket holders in Alabama if you did that, but it would be.
They've been playing the same music since like 2006 at Brian Denny.
Yeah, you just say, hey, everybody loves Green Day.
Just deal with it.
No, no, no, no.
At halftime, it's always show tunes from the 70s or something.
And I'm like, the sounds of Gloria Stesson.
Turn the beat around.
Also, man, the million dollar band's got a problem because inflation is like making them seem less and less cool.
Like they're going to have to start looking at a name change, I think.
That's true.
Yeah.
I didn't think about that one.
The value menu band.
That's a good timely joke, Robert.
Shouldn't have wasted it on this podcast.
Hold it for next season.
Oh.
He took the fanny part in my band.
Just giving away gold.
Daria says, teams shouldn't be allowed to punt in the fourth quarter.
Got to go forward on fourth down every single time.
I love that.
I love that.
Wayne Kiffin loves it.
Analytics, baby.
If you do punt, it has to be someone who is already on the field.
You can't bring somebody in.
It's got to be the quarterback.
Got to be Mount Cody again, putting the ball.
Colton Coy living a dream.
Oh, yeah.
This is a great one.
Matt, not me, although I do share a sentiment here.
I do feel like this is the long game.
Nice try, Matt.
Lane Kiffin will be the coach to Alabama next year as DeBoer and Freeze, I don't know what Freeze has got to do with it, both get fired.
No, because...
Lane Kiffin makes $9 million coaching at Ole Miss.
You're going to, what, make $11 million coaching at Alabama, but people are going to look over your shoulder every decision you make every day of your life?
Why?
Why would you do that?
I think he—you got something to say, Robert.
Go ahead.
Yeah, so the Vandy Pirate would say no.
I feel like he burned every bridge on the administration's side.
The fans would love it, but the pencil pushers in the front office would probably do a hard pass.
I don't even think they interviewed him for this last coaching hire.
Yeah, I don't know how far it got.
I kind of thought it might happen, but I don't know.
I think that he wants the job.
I think that there's a part of him.
I know the money is great, but I think at the end of the day, it's all about, I want to win at Alabama, like where Saban pushed me out at.
Yeah, also too, what's old Mrs.
Cap here?
I mean, has he hit it?
Are they just not going to be able to make it a run in the playoffs?
I'm curious if he's worried about that.
Yeah, it's hard to say that Ole Miss can get better than they were last year with Jackson Dart.
I feel like he might think last year was his best shot at it.
Yeah, they were good last year.
They should have been in the playoffs, but there was some anti-SEC bias it felt like.
State of Florida ruining all our chances.
Yeah, that was a good win, though.
That was fun.
That was good.
That was when he wouldn't punt in the fourth quarter.
You see, he was following.
Go for it on analytics.
Say, don't go for it here, buddy.
He's doing it anyway.
Deeper their own territory.
I want to know that the analytics is like a hard yes or no, like hard yes, don't, or hard yes, go for it.
Or if it's like a range, you know, it's like the needles in like the red.
And it's like, oh, I can still do it here.
Flip a coin.
Go for it.
This is our last one here.
Jordan says, all Georgia fans have a big head.
Literally, they all have giant heads.
Yes.
Okay.
I will say when we did a show in Athens, it was the most interesting thing.
All these Georgia fans, they want you to come by their tailgate and stuff.
And they don't say, hey, come by.
We have a lot of people.
They say, hey, we got 30 dogs at this tailgate.
And they all say it.
They all say it like that.
So if you're asking, how many dogs going to be there?
If you want to go to this tailgate or not, that's how they express their numbers in a group.
yeah so that was years ago ever since then if Robert and I are going to go to a party or anywhere where there are people we'll ask each other I mean I always going to be there laughter, Curry Smart does have a pretty big head.
Have y'all ever had a Georgia fan bark at you?
Yeah.
Yeah?
I have not.
I don't think that I have.
Well, yeah, I have.
Yeah.
Well, I don't know if it was to me directly, but they were just going.
Yeah.
There's nothing you can do to prepare yourself for it.
It's very shocking.
It's as shocking as an LSU fan chucking a whiskey bottle at you.
Oh, does that happen to you?
Yes.
No, no, that happens all the time.
I didn't expect that, actually.
All right, guys.
Okay.
There it is.
Yeah, you killed that lighting around.
Thanks for joining us.
Ounah will do it again in, I guess, three or four years.
We SEC Shorts.
Watch it every Monday morning, 8 o'clock in the fall on the YouTubes.
Also the Facebook.
But don't you want everybody to watch it on YouTube?
Man, we don't do anything on any other platform.
Yeah, YouTube is it.
Or you can upload the people who rip our stuff and upload it on TikTok.
You can also watch it there.
Oh, my God.
They're the worst.
I hate it.
I hate them.
But y'all don't put y'all stuff on tiktok do you we tried and then gets like 10 views and we're like whatever we're so old now like we're just like we'll just put it up on this and just whatever happens happens like i just can't keep up with the new stuff we're just so old now yeah i think it gets to a point where you just have to like draw a line and you're just like whatever comes after this i i can't i can't do it i give up that's fair i agree with that any any anything else you want to plug?
Are we doing any live shows this year?
Are we going to wait?
No, no live shows.
No, we're taking a break.
Those things are exhausting.
So we're taking a little bit of a hiatus just to recharge the batteries a little bit.
What about you, Matthew?
I think you need to start doing that kind of stuff.
You wouldn't like just crush it.
No, that live show sound terrifying to me.
We're going to try to go to some stadiums and do some stuff this year.
I'm going to go to Mizzou and watch them play Kansas suite too, I think.
And I don't know, they'll receive me with open arms, I'm sure.
And you're bringing the mask.
Are you going to bring it?
I don't know.
It's going to be fun.
to bring that through TSA, but I'll try.
Especially when it's on your face.
Yeah, I can't leave that carry on.
It's too important.
It's medical.
Yeah, that's my CPAP mask.
Robert Josh, thank you guys so much.
I hope you have a fantastic season of shorts.
Thanks for having us.
We had a great time.
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with this year, too.
