  Wow, wow, Wes.

• 0:02Speaker 01

  Okay, the U2 album, it was on, uh,

• 0:04Matt McCusker?

  The iPod.

• 0:05Speaker 01

  It was on everybody's phone. Phil was convinced that I downloaded that onto his car, because anytime he started his car, it played. And, uh, the album art was like a guy sucking another guy's dick. I don't know if you remember that?

• 0:17Matt McCusker?

  No.

• 0:18Speaker 01

  The album art of the album that they put on that YouTube. It was a guy kissing a guy's stomach.

• 0:22Matt McCusker?

  Was it really?

• 0:23Speaker 01

  Yeah, of course, dude, that's U2.

• 0:24Matt McCusker?

  I didn't know that.

• 0:25Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 0:25Matt McCusker?

  Huge information.

• 0:26Speaker 01

  Yeah. The YouTube movement.

• 0:28Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 0:29Speaker 01

  And Phil, Phil thought it was me. Now, some guys, I'm not saying who,

• 0:36Speaker 01

  think Metallica is not as good as U2.

• 0:40Matt McCusker?

  Well, the original argument was November Rain versus Enter Sandman. November Rain, I would say, but we were talking about,

• 0:47Speaker 01

  Well, the original argument was about Prince, and then we all agreed, so we had to find something we disagreed on.

• 0:51Matt McCusker?

  As a musician, he's not that good. I'm like, bro.

• 0:53Speaker 01

  Bro, I didn't say that.

• 0:54Matt McCusker?

  You did. You know, he's not even that good.

• 0:56Speaker 01

  He's not, he's not like, everyone like jerks him off like he's some crazy guitarist. He's like, just like every other shredder in the eighties. You said he was in top twenty. He's not top twenty guitarist. Twenty. Yes. That was the beginning. That was my argument.

• 1:06Matt McCusker?

  That's being the argument.

• 1:07Speaker 01

  That's literally fair. Genesis.

• 1:09Matt McCusker?

  That's, we already, we settled the Prince, too.

• 1:10Speaker 01

  Prince not top twenty is a pretty fair fucking argument.

• 1:13Matt McCusker?

  In terms of guitars. I don't think you had really, you didn't have an argument there. We entered into the argument of like, if, if stuff's better musically as like a musician. And then we got into somehow Enter Sandman versus Guns N' Roses.

• 1:25Speaker 01

  Yeah, that had nothing to do with that conversation.

• 1:26Matt McCusker?

  It did. It sprung from it. What are you talking about?

• 1:28Speaker 01

  Yeah. But it wasn't, you said Enter Sandman isn't as good as November Rain. I said, dude, Enter Sandman rules. You definitely entered November Rain into the argument. Yeah. Because nobody would pick that.

• 1:39Matt McCusker?

  We're talking about Enter Sandman.

• 1:40Speaker 01

  And I was like, November Rain. We didn't go from Prince to GNR. It was just a new thing.

• 1:44Matt McCusker?

  No, it was all the same. It, dude, it was a music, it was a musical debate.

• 1:48Speaker 01

  The debate was Enter Sandman versus fucking, what's it called again?

• 1:52Matt McCusker?

  November Rain.

• 1:52Speaker 01

  Yeah, exactly.

• 1:54Matt McCusker?

  Oh, the appeal to authority.

• 1:55Speaker 01

  There's no appeal to authority.

• 1:57Matt McCusker?

  Their chili seal argument.

• 1:58Speaker 01

  They could never.

• 1:59Matt McCusker?

  Yo, Christina Aguilera better than Santana. Tell for the people.

• 2:03Speaker 01

  You already, you're already moving the goalposts all around. It's crazy. It's almost like a girl tactic.

• 2:06Matt McCusker?

  I don't, I don't see it that way.

• 2:08Speaker 01

  Enter Sandman. Enter Sandman. A good move in the debate. Or. Girl tactics are great. Or November Rain.

• 2:16Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. November Rain's better. A better song. Enter Sandman is.

• 2:21Speaker 01

  I.

• 2:22Matt McCusker?

  November Rain's a better song.

• 2:22Matt McCusker?

  I will say that last night I came in on the November Rain camp.

• 2:25Speaker 01

  I know. You were, you were out of your mind. Pound for pound. You were out of your mind. Enter Sandman's better.

• 2:29Matt McCusker?

  We listened to it. We listened to it.

• 2:31Speaker 01

  Literally like.

• 2:32Matt McCusker?

  Well, it's pretty good. Nate?

• 2:34Speaker 01

  November.

• 2:34Matt McCusker?

  Nate heard it for the first time.

• 2:36Speaker 01

  Oh, the song's awesome. Hold on.

• 2:39Speaker 01

  Nate, you heard, it's awesome. You heard that for the first time last night?

• 2:42Matt McCusker?

  Yes.

• 2:43Speaker 01

  And then what happened when we played Enter Sandman? You heard it already, right?

• 2:47Matt McCusker?

  He doesn't even know that.

• 2:48Speaker 01

  Enter Sandman. Yeah. You heard it a million times already. I wonder why.

• 2:52Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that dude, that you're, you're, I, look, I love you. I don't want you to go back into those really murky waters you were in last night.

• 2:58Speaker 01

  We've already covered this.

• 2:59Matt McCusker?

  True.

• 3:00Speaker 01

  Oh, gosh.

• 3:00Matt McCusker?

  Yo, he for real. He was blown away.

• 3:02Speaker 01

  Sandman.

• 3:03Matt McCusker?

  Nate was blown away by November Rain.

• 3:05Speaker 01

  Fuck. Enter Sandman.

• 3:06Matt McCusker?

  Nate butt fucks it.

• 3:07Speaker 01

  Thinks Lupe is better than Kanye. Yeah. Yeah, you do. You, you did until I took you to that fucking concert. Yes or no? Yes or no? I'm just reporting on facts. Yes or no? Yes or no? Gardog?

• 3:20Speaker 01

  Gardog? Gardog?

• 3:24Speaker 01

  He loves Lupe.

• 3:25Matt McCusker?

  Backpack rap.

• 3:27Speaker 01

  I love Lupe. I love Lupe. He's, he's one of my goats, but Kanye is the best. I was about to make everybody mad, say Kanye's better than the Beatles.

• 3:36Speaker 01

  Nice mic drop.

• 3:38Matt McCusker?

  Sick mic drop.

• 3:40Speaker 01

  Kanye better than the Beatles? You got a better argument than U2 over Metallica? That was, that was the second argument. U2 over Metallica is the most insane argument.

• 3:48Matt McCusker?

  Look, I'll take my love.

• 3:49Speaker 01

  That's literally like the most.

• 3:50Matt McCusker?

  That was it. I was riding high for November Rain. I don't like Metallica.

• 3:54Speaker 01

  I don't either.

• 3:55Matt McCusker?

  And then.

• 3:56Speaker 01

  Not that much. Like, I don't ride.

• 3:59Matt McCusker?

  Who's a girl now?

• 4:00Speaker 01

  Screaming about it.

• 4:01Matt McCusker?

  Who's a girl now? I'm saying, compare it now, dude.

• 4:03Speaker 01

  You were screaming and crying last night.

• 4:04Matt McCusker?

  Come on, man.

• 4:05Speaker 01

  I picked a horse. You screamed and cried last night about Metallica.

• 4:08Matt McCusker?

  I backed.

• 4:08Speaker 01

  I went to bed like a man. I said, I'll let the little boys handle this.

• 4:11Matt McCusker?

  I backed a bad horse. I was like, dude, U2's probably better than Metallica. We went track by track. Fuck, did I back a bad horse?

• 4:20Speaker 01

  Judas, dude? I literally saved you on the beach. I literally pulled you off that beach.

• 4:26Matt McCusker?

  It's melting down.

• 4:30Speaker 01

  By the way, if you think we have teams, if you don't think I'm just sitting back and enjoying this.

• 4:36Speaker 01

  But, I mean, I understand the truth. Because anybody saying November Rain over Enter Sandman is a fool. And public, boys.

• 4:42Matt McCusker?

  I'm, it's gonna come down to, like, the edges.

• 4:45Speaker 01

  Oftentimes, fools dressed in a crowd.

• 4:49Speaker 01

  A lot of times fools are fucking retards. And get pushed onto the ground and everyone goes, shut up, fool. My argument was. Remember when Mariano Rivera ran out to, uh, November Rain?

• 5:02Matt McCusker?

  Uh, no.

• 5:02Speaker 01

  No, no, no, no. That's right. Remember when, uh,

• 5:04Matt McCusker?

  Guys, I can't believe we're trying out this.

• 5:06Speaker 01

  They're trying the same thing. Here goes. Remember, yo, when Virginia Tech, when they ran out of tunnel? You know how the entire hundred thousand stadium jumps up? Same as the eight minutes.

• 5:15Matt McCusker?

  You know something I like?

• 5:18Matt McCusker?

  Hey.

• 5:19Speaker 01

  I swear to God, it doesn't come close.

• 5:21Matt McCusker?

  Dude, November Rain.

• 5:22Speaker 01

  Comes pretty close. After a goal, after a goal in hockey.

• 5:25Matt McCusker?

  That's a cool application for a song. To pump the crowd up is great, but as a great song, because you can, you can pump up the crowd.

• 5:32Speaker 01

  It's almost like the goal.

• 5:33Matt McCusker?

  You can listen to it in your car while you're driving. You can do all kinds of stuff. That's one specific thing for a song to be used for. November Rain, so many different kinds.

• 5:42Speaker 01

  How come the musicians agreed?

• 5:45Matt McCusker?

  They were led, by the way. There was a lot of leading.

• 5:48Speaker 01

  The musicians that we will not name.

• 5:49Matt McCusker?

  Two out of one. Two, two for one. Two for one. Nate, first time listener, November Rain blew him away.

• 5:56Speaker 01

  Uh, he didn't choose.

• 5:58Matt McCusker?

  Yes, he did.

• 5:59Speaker 01

  I mean, if we put on Enter Sandman for the first time ever, he heard it a million times already. It would have blown his fucking mind.

• 6:04Matt McCusker?

  I don't think it did.

• 6:05Speaker 01

  He would have been literally one of the Russians taking his uniform off and being on someone's shoulders going.

• 6:11Matt McCusker?

  Guys, people like different stuff. Nate doesn't like.

• 6:13Speaker 01

  Now, people like different stuff. People like different stuff is the end of the argument.

• 6:16Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that's where it went.

• 6:18Speaker 01

  Then we can agree there. We can agree there. Then you said Edge is a better guitarist than Kirk Hammett.

• 6:23Matt McCusker?

  Immediately took that back.

• 6:24Speaker 01

  Disgusting.

• 6:24Matt McCusker?

  That was a Hail Mary. I was, I was really swi, I was spinning.

• 6:27Speaker 01

  You didn't take it back. You guys were like.

• 6:29Matt McCusker?

  I took, no.

• 6:30Speaker 01

  What about Britney Spears and Carlos Santana? I was like, what the fuck? You guys were just talking about Edge being a better guitarist.

• 6:35Matt McCusker?

  Hold on. I, I said the Edge one. I did a compilation and mid thing went, fuck, this sucks. Took it back immediately. You went, they're better because more people listened to it. I said, whoa, Bill. I said, now I got them where I want them. I said, Bill.

• 6:49Speaker 01

  That's, that's why, that's how you're losing this argument. I can't believe you're losing this argument.

• 6:53Matt McCusker?

  He was.

• 6:54Speaker 01

  You're losing a U2 versus Metallica argument.

• 6:56Matt McCusker?

  I'm not. By his own logic, U2 is technically better because they have more records or whatever.

• 7:02Speaker 01

  They have more records. It's literally hard to lose this argument. U2 is Coldplay.

• 7:07Matt McCusker?

  He was on the break and he wouldn't admit it. I admit it when I'm wrong. I go, fuck.

• 7:11Speaker 01

  Some may argue, why climb the highest mountain? Why does U2 beat Metallica? Not because it is easy, but because it is hard.

• 7:21Matt McCusker?

  God, I could have went with Sabbath. I could have went with Sabbath.

• 7:23Speaker 01

  Sabbath, Sabbath.

• 7:24Matt McCusker?

  You could have.

• 7:25Speaker 01

  Matt, you wouldn't have an argument with Sabbath.

• 7:27Matt McCusker?

  What do you mean?

• 7:27Speaker 01

  We would agree with it.

• 7:28Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, yeah, true.

• 7:29Speaker 01

  We're not, we're not guys that go.

• 7:30Matt McCusker?

  I'm just saying I backed the bad horse.

• 7:31Speaker 01

  Remember Coldplay? They're better than Metallica.

• 7:34Matt McCusker?

  You said Coldplay rocks. Coldplay does rock.

• 7:36Speaker 01

  Coldplay does rock.

• 7:37Matt McCusker?

  They rock.

• 7:38Speaker 01

  But, U2. Enter Sandman?

• 7:42Matt McCusker?

  I said, if we were going things, if we were going by, oh, they're more popular and they sell more records.

• 7:45Speaker 01

  We were just going by what's better. That's not the argument.

• 7:48Matt McCusker?

  No, because that was your argument. His argument was that they're more popular.

• 7:50Speaker 01

  I gave you my answer and you got, hold on. And then, hold on. You take it back. Quiet. Quiet for a second.

• 7:55Matt McCusker?

  You said.

• 7:55Speaker 01

  Don't worry about the sound, dude.

• 7:57Matt McCusker?

  Britney Spears is better than Carlos Santana. Britney Spears is better than Carlos Santana. You said that last night.

• 8:01Speaker 01

  Brother, like a woman, you hit. I was like, like a woman. You look at me.

• 8:06Matt McCusker?

  You're a fucking liar.

• 8:08Speaker 01

  Like a woman, you looked at me.

• 8:11Speaker 01

  Like, you were like, Edge is better than Kirk Hammett. And I was like, dude, that's just not true. I put you in the dirt on that. And then you were like, what about, uh,

• 8:19Matt McCusker?

  No, I laughed. I laughed.

• 8:22Speaker 01

  Your eyes started darting around.

• 8:23Matt McCusker?

  Not true. I looked at it. I went, fuck, this guy sucks. This guy sucks. And then I said, the whole thing, my whole argument was like, you were basing it on appeal to authority. And I said, Bill.

• 8:33Speaker 01

  Appeal to authority? You were saying U2. They're the most appealed authority band in the fucking world. Yeah, they're on everybody's, they're on everybody's phone. They're making red eye photos for money laundering and AIDS.

• 8:42Matt McCusker?

  The whole way I was saying is musically, I was like, they're better musicians than Metallica.

• 8:46Speaker 01

  They're not.

• 8:48Matt McCusker?

  And I died on that hill.

• 8:49Speaker 01

  Fucking Bono against fucking, uh, Hetfield. You think Bono's a better singer than Hetfield, bro?

• 8:55Matt McCusker?

  Well, it depends on who has more range. Now you're getting, I'm getting.

• 8:59Matt McCusker?

  I, I guess.

• 9:00Speaker 01

  You know this. Master, master.

• 9:03Speaker 01

  Sleep.

• 9:04Matt McCusker?

  He every dude, every one of his songs sounds exactly the same.

• 9:06Speaker 01

  And Bono fucking weirdly whispers into the mic.

• 9:09Matt McCusker?

  Bono has more of a vocal range than him.

• 9:10Speaker 01

  He doesn't.

• 9:11Matt McCusker?

  He does.

• 9:11Speaker 01

  Literally doesn't.

• 9:11Matt McCusker?

  He does.

• 9:12Speaker 01

  And then he said edge over fucking.

• 9:14Matt McCusker?

  And I immediately laughed and took that back. As soon as I saw the compilation, you said.

• 9:18Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 9:18Matt McCusker?

  N. St. and Britney Spears are better than Carlos Santana.

• 9:20Speaker 01

  I did not.

• 9:20Matt McCusker?

  You gotta live with that.

• 9:21Speaker 01

  You were trying to get me.

• 9:22Matt McCusker?

  Well, yes, by those metrics, I believe.

• 9:23Speaker 01

  I gotta walk that back.

• 9:24Matt McCusker?

  You gotta take.

• 9:25Speaker 01

  Also.

• 9:26Matt McCusker?

  Okay. I'm taking my else. You have to take that out.

• 9:29Speaker 01

  I'll, I'll answer it. Yes.

• 9:30Matt McCusker?

  You fucking flopped on that last. You almost lost the worst debate of all time.

• 9:33Speaker 01

  The reason, the reason it got to there, because I said, dude, they're just better. It's not even competition. And you guys are like, but why? But why? I was like, it, they're, they just are.

• 9:42Matt McCusker?

  You said they're better than Carlos Santana.

• 9:44Speaker 01

  I was getting double teamed.

• 9:45Matt McCusker?

  Rock card revoked. No, you can't.

• 9:48Speaker 01

  Rock card revoked. Also, also, also in the middle of the double teaming, you were taking, the O'Connor was a wild card too. O'Connor. You would just hop in and scream.

• 9:56Matt McCusker?

  I, I always don't, I was.

• 9:57Speaker 01

  Don't look at me like that.

• 9:58Matt McCusker?

  I wasn't part of this at all.

• 9:58Speaker 01

  I know. You, you had your own argument. You were arguing. O'Connor was her. Just so you know, you were arguing alone against no one.

• 10:07Matt McCusker?

  No, I wasn't part of this conversation.

• 10:08Speaker 01

  You were sitting at the bar, you were sitting at the bar. You would look over with your white eyes and your red face.

• 10:13Matt McCusker?

  Okay.

• 10:14Speaker 01

  And you would go.

• 10:15Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 10:16Speaker 01

  We go, holy shit, I forgot Chris was here.

• 10:18Matt McCusker?

  It was a different conversation.

• 10:19Speaker 01

  I know you were having your own.

• 10:20Matt McCusker?

  It was a different conversation.

• 10:21Speaker 01

  I supported. Don't misrepresent me. You were having your own battle.

• 10:25Matt McCusker?

  This is a misrepresentation.

• 10:26Speaker 01

  O'Connor was in the bullpen. And you always do this. Anytime I talk about Prince, you hijack it and you take it too far.

• 10:32Matt McCusker?

  I didn't take it too far.

• 10:33Speaker 01

  Anytime I discuss Prince.

• 10:34Matt McCusker?

  I said there was 2,000 artists that I believe are better than Prince.

• 10:36Speaker 01

  That's taking it too far.

• 10:37Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that's crazy.

• 10:38Speaker 01

  That's false.

• 10:38Matt McCusker?

  And I began to name it. I started, I started in the year 2000.

• 10:43Speaker 01

  All I said.

• 10:44Matt McCusker?

  I was just working through the top 1,000 from 2000 to 2009.

• 10:46Speaker 01

  All I said was Prince is not top 10. And then my only ally in the argument is always you. And you jump in and you say, he's not top 2,000. Then I gotta go, fuck. Now I gotta ride with this guy. It's American. He's like Creed, better than Prince. And I gotta go.

• 11:04Matt McCusker?

  Am I wrong?

• 11:05Speaker 01

  Creed, Creed fucking bangs.

• 11:09Speaker 01

  311, better than Prince. And I gotta go. And I gotta go.

• 11:13Matt McCusker?

  You've had the fight too many times.

• 11:15Speaker 01

  I know the battle. I've listened to every single Prince's songs now.

• 11:18Matt McCusker?

  It's, it's.

• 11:18Speaker 01

  I've had this battle that many times.

• 11:19Matt McCusker?

  I know, but that's what makes you gun shy. You know what I mean? That's why you'll say he's outside the top 10 and I'm telling you.

• 11:24Speaker 01

  He's outside the top 10, but he's still great.

• 11:26Matt McCusker?

  It's worse than that.

• 11:28Speaker 01

  You think he's not top 2,000 and that's.

• 11:30Matt McCusker?

  I don't think so.

• 11:31Speaker 01

  Matchbox 20 or Prince?

• 11:36Matt McCusker?

  It's easy Matchbox 20.

• 11:37Speaker 01

  Where we're, we're wrong. You're, you're wrong about.

• 11:40Matt McCusker?

  How?

• 11:41Speaker 01

  Cause Prince is better than Matchbox 20.

• 11:42Matt McCusker?

  By what metric?

• 11:43Speaker 01

  Every single possible metric.

• 11:45Matt McCusker?

  No.

• 11:46Speaker 01

  There's not one metric.

• 11:47Matt McCusker?

  Hit songs?

• 11:48Speaker 01

  Yes.

• 11:49Matt McCusker?

  You think Prince has.

• 11:50Speaker 01

  Yes, we could look at Billboard's top hit songs. Prince has more than Matchbox 20.

• 11:54Matt McCusker?

  The popularity thing.

• 11:55Speaker 01

  Well, you just said hit songs. See what happens when they start.

• 11:58Matt McCusker?

  I'm talking about a song, Bill.

• 11:59Speaker 01

  They start dancing around. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Time out for one second.

• 12:03Matt McCusker?

  Hit's evade. Don't evade that on anyone else. Hit's evade.

• 12:06Speaker 01

  Call time out.

• 12:07Matt McCusker?

  Hit's evade.

• 12:07Speaker 01

  You literally, you literally just said hit songs.

• 12:10Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 12:10Speaker 01

  And then I said.

• 12:11Matt McCusker?

  No, but.

• 12:11Speaker 01

  Can you take me out of this? Hit songs, this. And you said, now you're bringing up. I like this.

• 12:17Matt McCusker?

  No, no, no, that's not what I said.

• 12:18Speaker 01

  Okay, let's do it again.

• 12:20Matt McCusker?

  I was saying hit songs. I'm talking about songs, songs that they've made that you like genuinely love listening to.

• 12:27Speaker 01

  That's the definition of a hit song?

• 12:29Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, like Matchbox 20, I think has like hit songs that you would like play and be like.

• 12:34Speaker 01

  A hit song?

• 12:35Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 12:35Speaker 01

  So a popular song. That's what a hit song is.

• 12:39Matt McCusker?

  I guess. I didn't mean it that way. I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it in the, in the like a Billboard, Billboard top.

• 12:47Speaker 01

  I mean bangers. No, but a hit song. Yeah, we're gonna have to. Bring a strike. We're gonna have to get, yeah. But that's fine. We can play for a couple of seconds.

• 12:56Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 12:56Speaker 01

  Yeah. But I love that. I love that argument. Name a hit song. You mean like a Billboard top one? No, you're bringing up hit songs.

• 13:02Matt McCusker?

  No, no, I mean like a.

• 13:04Speaker 01

  You mean bangers by banger. So it's Push You Around.

• 13:08Matt McCusker?

  I wanna push you. What other? Oh.

• 13:13Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 13:14Speaker 01

  Santana and Matchbox 20.

• 13:16Matt McCusker?

  That collab was nasty, bro.

• 13:18Speaker 01

  Rob Johnson, or is it Rob Johnson? Rob Thomas. Rob Thomas. Yeah.

• 13:22Matt McCusker?

  I met him one time backstage.

• 13:23Speaker 01

  Did you for real?

• 13:24Matt McCusker?

  I snuck backstage.

• 13:24Speaker 01

  Actually, I'm a big Game of Love fan too. I always saw Rob Thomas looked like the guy who cuts the guy's dick off in Game of Thrones.

• 13:32Matt McCusker?

  He does look exactly like.

• 13:33Speaker 01

  Doesn't he look exactly like? I can't. Yeah, you know. And Spud. Spud, Rob Thomas and the guy who cuts the guy's dick off.

• 13:40Matt McCusker?

  I feel he looks more like Game of Thrones.

• 13:42Speaker 01

  Different stages of their lives.

• 13:42Matt McCusker?

  You know that guy's had an incredibly brutal life.

• 13:45Speaker 01

  Rob Thomas?

• 13:45Matt McCusker?

  Rob Thomas had like the worst life ever. I've read his.

• 13:48Speaker 01

  You can hear it in his music.

• 13:49Matt McCusker?

  No, he got, he had like a really fucked, he had a very fucked up, horrible, terrible life.

• 13:53Speaker 01

  More than I can hear in Prince.

• 13:55Matt McCusker?

  I think he had like a terrible, like horrible home life. And then like he started a band that never worked out for a long time. It just like.

• 14:02Speaker 01

  Hey guys.

• 14:02Matt McCusker?

  He had a tough time.

• 14:03Speaker 01

  Trying to.

• 14:03Matt McCusker?

  No, I was listening to.

• 14:04Speaker 01

  He's sexual deviant. He.

• 14:07Matt McCusker?

  I never said that.

• 14:08Speaker 01

  He said sexual deviant.

• 14:09Matt McCusker?

  Sexual deviant.

• 14:10Speaker 01

  No, he just had, if you read his Wikipedia, it's like an unbelievably horrible story.

• 14:13Matt McCusker?

  Tried to start a band and it didn't go so good. I think he got like fucked by a manager. It was like, he just had like hardship after hardship.

• 14:19Speaker 01

  He's talking about Prince, not Rob Thomas.

• 14:20Matt McCusker?

  Rob Thomas.

• 14:21Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 14:22Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, he's talking about Rob Thomas.

• 14:23Speaker 01

  Rob Thomas is in sexual deviant.

• 14:25Matt McCusker?

• 16:02Speaker 01

  As far as. You don't know that? Rob Thomas is sexual deviant?

• 16:04Matt McCusker?

  I don't know.

• 16:05Speaker 01

  We don't gotta keep track of that conversation. He listens to this podcast. I never said. Chris O'Connor called you.

• 16:10Matt McCusker?

  And I'm the only one defending him against Prince.

• 16:12Speaker 01

  You're saying.

• 16:14Matt McCusker?

  So what do you think he's gonna think?

• 16:15Speaker 01

  I bet you Rob Thomas would be like, dude, Prince is better.

• 16:19Matt McCusker?

  He has to say that.

• 16:20Speaker 01

  I think he's not a sexual deviant. I didn't cut the guy's dick off in Game of Thrones.

• 16:26Speaker 01

  Prince is probably better.

• 16:28Matt McCusker?

  It was good. I, I love a good sport though. That was good sport.

• 16:31Speaker 01

  Nothing fires me up, man.

• 16:32Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 16:32Speaker 01

  And people, people will seem to get mad at me every time I.

• 16:35Matt McCusker?

  It's fun.

• 16:36Speaker 01

  I delight in.

• 16:37Matt McCusker?

  It's fun.

• 16:37Speaker 01

  I delight it. I, I love it. I love seeing guys get going like that.

• 16:40Matt McCusker?

  I entered the argument last night laughing. I was having a good time and then I got sucked into it. Next thing I knew, I was having a good time.

• 16:47Speaker 01

  It took me an hour and a half to fall asleep. Fully caffeinated.

• 16:49Matt McCusker?

  You were caffeinated though.

• 16:50Speaker 01

  I know.

• 16:50Matt McCusker?

  And the conversation, the conversation kept going. Next thing I knew, I was just like, you twos, I love you two.

• 16:57Speaker 01

  I was going to sleep. Like, how did that happen to me? I, I told myself it wouldn't work. I got sucked in.

• 17:02Matt McCusker?

  I know.

• 17:05Matt McCusker?

  Huh?

• 17:07Matt McCusker?

  Text the group chat.

• 17:08Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 17:08Matt McCusker?

  No more arguing. Yeah.

• 17:10Speaker 01

  Shane Thanos. I love. He's inevitable. Yeah, somebody's gonna, if you, if you're on beach trip, there's gonna be a blowout argument. Nah, that was nowhere near sand. Sand. That was nowhere near sand. That was under sand. It's a real sandman. O'Connor almost got physical on that one. Our argument did not almost get physical.

• 17:26Speaker 01

  You scared my dad. You do, you were domineering over me.

• 17:29Speaker 01

  He was scared when he got there.

• 17:30Matt McCusker?

  Bored him maybe, but I didn't scare him.

• 17:31Speaker 01

  I remember him going. I, I filmed it. I have. You were domineering over me on his couch.

• 17:38Matt McCusker?

  No, it was, I was on the other side of the counter.

• 17:39Speaker 01

  You walked over. I remember everything from last beach trip.

• 17:41Matt McCusker?

  And you know that.

• 17:42Speaker 01

  I do remember.

• 17:42Matt McCusker?

  And you know that. I remember everything.

• 17:44Speaker 01

  Over him. You stood over him and you're like, I don't give a fuck. I have a degree in engineering.

• 17:46Matt McCusker?

  I said that from the other side of this counter.

• 17:48Speaker 01

  No, no, you walked over.

• 17:49Matt McCusker?

  When I said, when I said that I don't care who your uncle is or whatever.

• 17:54Speaker 01

  No, I, I remember there were two chairs.

• 17:56Matt McCusker?

  Real quick. They kept going, my uncle works for Halliburton.

• 17:59Speaker 01

  No, my uncle doesn't work for Halliburton. Please don't say that. No, the owners of Hall, Spade was talking about.

• 18:04Matt McCusker?

  I think they were, Halliburton came up.

• 18:06Speaker 01

  Spade was talking about Halliburton and how they get oil out of the ground. I will say those hunks. Has nothing to do with the sand argument. Those hunks that were. This fucking Halliburton shit they're bringing up. The, the hunks that were giving us our umbrellas.

• 18:18Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 18:19Speaker 01

  They're pouring a lot of water on that pole.

• 18:21Matt McCusker?

  Well, they're digging deep. Down to what do you think?

• 18:24Speaker 01

  What was the argument with the sand? Compacted sand.

• 18:27Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. If you pour water on sand, does it get.

• 18:30Speaker 01

  Stronger or weaker? Stronger. Weaker.

• 18:33Matt McCusker?

  How so?

• 18:33Speaker 01

  Oh, well. Once it dries. Here's, here's a part of the argument. Here's a part of the argument you're missing.

• 18:37Matt McCusker?

  They're wrong. They're wrong. They're wrong.

• 18:39Speaker 01

  Here's a part of the argument that you're missing with the sand argument. Chris was filling up a single bottle of water. Pouring it down.

• 18:45Matt McCusker?

  No, no, that's now, now you're moving.

• 18:47Speaker 01

  You were filling one of those up and walking it down.

• 18:49Matt McCusker?

  That's not true.

• 18:50Speaker 01

  That is true. I watched you do it. I remember everything.

• 18:52Matt McCusker?

  What? How do you build a wet sand castle?

• 18:54Speaker 01

  What do you mean?

• 18:54Matt McCusker?

  Like when you do a drippy castle, that's way different than just a pile of dry sand.

• 18:58Speaker 01

  It's the same thing. There's just water in it.

• 19:00Matt McCusker?

  So.

• 19:01Speaker 01

  And then it just falls apart.

• 19:01Matt McCusker?

  So it doesn't absorb, but just whole water gets trapped between it?

• 19:04Speaker 01

  Pretty much. I mean, it's, well, sand's like one of the smallest fucking.

• 19:07Matt McCusker?

  It's like rock. No one said it absorbed.

• 19:09Speaker 01

  Chris.

• 19:10Matt McCusker?

  Does it hold together better?

• 19:11Speaker 01

  Yeah, for sure.

• 19:12Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 19:13Speaker 01

  And then Chris, can I ask?

• 19:14Matt McCusker?

  It's pretty simple. It's pretty simple. You pour, you pour water on sand, what happens to it?

• 19:18Speaker 01

  It does go here.

• 19:19Matt McCusker?

  Yes.

• 19:20Speaker 01

  Chris, can I ask?

• 19:21Matt McCusker?

  It's not rocket science and I had to, I had to have this battle for fucking five hours.

• 19:25Speaker 01

  Chris, can I ask you something?

• 19:26Matt McCusker?

  The Halliburton comes up.

• 19:27Speaker 01

  Chris.

• 19:28Matt McCusker?

  3:00 AM. 3:00 AM is a great Matchbox 20 song.

• 19:32Speaker 01

  She had rocks. I knew you were looking for rocks.

• 19:36Speaker 01

  Hold on, can I ask you something?

• 19:37Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 19:38Speaker 01

  You're telling me you were not filling up water in a water bottle?

• 19:43Matt McCusker?

  It was a, it was a bigger water bottle.

• 19:44Speaker 01

  It was bigger. And then when this went down the pole, all the water fucking expanded the hole and pushed the hole out more.

• 19:51Matt McCusker?

  No, no, no. I compacted the sand with my foot and then I poured water on top of that and then I compacted it again.

• 19:57Speaker 01

  Yeah, water does something to sand for sure.

• 19:58Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 19:59Speaker 01

  Yes. But it's not worth filling this up and walking back to the pole. Where we were on the beach.

• 20:03Matt McCusker?

  It also kept the umbrella from tipping over. No one gives a fuck about that.

• 20:07Speaker 01

  It was the umbrella.

• 20:09Matt McCusker?

  Okay.

• 20:09Speaker 01

  It was pouring water onto the base.

• 20:12Matt McCusker?

  No one gives a fuck about the result.

• 20:13Speaker 01

  They get the.

• 20:14Matt McCusker?

  They just, they kept talking about foundations. You can't, you can't, you can't build a foundation on sand. All this stuff that I had never was even talking about.

• 20:24Matt McCusker?

  It was exhausting.

• 20:25Speaker 01

  Still open. Cause it does, water does something to sand. I, not tonight.

• 20:35Speaker 01

  Yeah, but this was zero wet sand. This is pouring a

• 20:39Speaker 03

  No, it's slightly wet. It's slightly wet. It's not like soupy, not soupy sand.

• 20:43Speaker 01

  I know, but you were tying.

• 20:44Speaker 03

  Yeah, I was making that sound soupy.

• 20:46Speaker 01

  Chris.

• 20:46Speaker 03

  You're saying I was, I should have been putting more water, then that would have been a soup, soup problem.

• 20:51Speaker 01

  This was nothing. If you walk up to that beach right now.

• 20:54Speaker 03

  You would have done the same thing. If I put a big bucket of water on it, you go, it's too much water. It's soupy.

• 20:58Speaker 01

  Chris, I supported it. I actually stayed out of this argument. I was delighted to watch it happen because I remember when you were filling up one of these in the ocean.

• 21:06Speaker 03

  No, no.

• 21:07Speaker 01

  Now all of a sudden the bottle got bigger. We got a case of big waters for the first time ever. I remember everything from beach trip one. It was literally a water bottle. It was, it was a hundred percent. He said twenty, Chris, Chris, Chris, Chris.

• 21:18Speaker 03

  And you guys are also changing the army. You, you were saying water does nothing.

• 21:21Speaker 01

  I didn't say that. It's not gonna help. I never said that one. Stop walking back and forth. I never said that one. Pouring water on it every thirty minutes.

• 21:27Matt McCusker?

  What that would, would.

• 21:28Speaker 03

  Thirty minutes, that's how long it would be. We were at the beach today. You think it took thirty minutes to get to the water and back?

• 21:33Matt McCusker?

  That's the real argument.

• 21:36Speaker 01

  The situation is. I'm in quicksand right now.

• 21:39Matt McCusker?

  Dry, dry, dry.

• 21:42Speaker 01

  We're at the top.

• 21:42Matt McCusker?

  You got too much water. You got too much water in the sand here.

• 21:47Speaker 01

  We're at the top of the beach here.

• 21:48Speaker 03

  Powdery dry.

• 21:49Speaker 01

  Is completely powdery dry.

• 21:51Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 21:51Speaker 01

  Chris is sticking one of these bottles, without a doubt, into the ocean and I'm sitting next to Spud. We're down by the ocean. And Spud goes, that's not gonna do anything. And I was like, you should tell Chris. Cause I knew. The second he tells Chris, we got a ballgame. Now, then, once, Chris, it's my favorite moment of beach trip. Chris, with, with a bottle of water in the ocean that he's gonna walk back up to the umbrella to pour on the base of the umbrella. He goes, oh yeah, okay.

• 22:27Speaker 01

  Why is that? And as soon as I went, oh, we got it, we got one. Now, I, I got.

• 22:33Speaker 03

  I'm glad that you said that because it's not gonna do anything is the argument.

• 22:38Speaker 01

  It's a, it's a futile.

• 22:39Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah.

• 22:40Speaker 01

  Then.

• 22:41Speaker 03

  The opening statement was, water's not gonna do anything.

• 22:44Speaker 01

  I look at Spud, I say, I'm gonna leave. You guys are gonna be arguing about something else in one hour. Came back, we're talking about Halliburton, building sand.

• 22:56Speaker 03

  Nothing, nothing.

• 22:57Speaker 01

  Building on top of sand.

• 22:59Speaker 03

  I didn't bring up.

• 22:59Speaker 01

  We're arguing about that, where the water table is. We're arguing about it. Now, the truth is, Chris, you are right, in my opinion. This is my opinion.

• 23:07Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 23:07Speaker 01

  That, that would help pack the sand.

• 23:11Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 23:12Speaker 01

  If you weren't pouring more than this and walking back and forth, which is a giant waste of time.

• 23:18Speaker 03

  It's not that far. It's not that far. How far was it today? How far was it today?

• 23:22Speaker 01

  Today's different. And we both know today's different than five years ago. We know the hurricane, we know the hurricane when we were here.

• 23:28Speaker 03

  You know, it's like the way, the way that things move. It's like now I'm filling up a thimble. I'm walking two miles back and forth. It's like unbelievable.

• 23:35Speaker 01

  Chris, Chris, no, you're right, you're right. You're right, you're right. It was an office, it was an office water cooler.

• 23:40Speaker 03

  Water bottle, poured on it.

• 23:42Speaker 01

  And it was. If you want me to be extremely.

• 23:44Speaker 03

  Packed it down, it did work.

• 23:46Speaker 01

  Chris, you're right, you're right. Matchbox Twenty is better than Prince. You were, you were filling up a fifty gallon fucking bottle of water. Extremely honest, when you were pouring it out, you were also squeezing it as hard as you can and crinkling it up. You squeezed it and crinkled it.

• 24:02Speaker 01

  And it was one of these water bottles. I mean this.

• 24:05Speaker 03

  That's in real time changing discussion.

• 24:08Speaker 01

  I'm just now gonna have a crinkle argument? Mental picture. Bill is the Italy of allies. Alright, I got Bill on my side. He goes, just so you know, you were crinkling it. And I gotta go, yeah, you're fucking crinkling it.

• 24:19Speaker 03

  That affects his ability to be filled up again.

• 24:22Speaker 01

  I'm just, no, I'm just saying like that's what you were getting. A little water bottle like this and filling it up. It wasn't any bigger than this. It was this big.

• 24:28Matt McCusker?

  So it was too much sand, not enough water.

• 24:30Speaker 01

  It was just a futile effort. It was completely useless. It was completely useless. Just enjoy the beach.

• 24:34Speaker 03

  It was useless other than the fact that it worked.

• 24:36Matt McCusker?

  In theory, it would have rocked.

• 24:37Speaker 01

  It worked with or without the sand.

• 24:40Speaker 03

  I got all, I got, I got, they ran the gamut. The wind stopped, like all this stuff. They just couldn't admit that it worked.

• 24:46Speaker 01

  You think the water worked?

• 24:47Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 24:48Speaker 01

  Yeah. You think pouring a, this amount of water on the base of an umbrella?

• 24:52Speaker 03

  It was back and forth. Yeah.

• 24:53Speaker 01

  Maybe three. You gave up because you knew it was ridiculous.

• 24:57Speaker 03

  Well, I got caught in the middle of an argument.

• 24:58Speaker 01

  But you did, but you did.

• 25:00Speaker 03

  I couldn't keep.

• 25:01Speaker 01

  But you did stop.

• 25:01Speaker 03

  I didn't stop.

• 25:02Speaker 01

  But you did stop. How many times you think you went? You had to keep doing it because it wasn't.

• 25:05Speaker 03

  I would say, I would say at least, I would say at least seven to ten.

• 25:10Speaker 01

  You think you did seven to ten trips from the ocean?

• 25:13Speaker 03

  Far. It's not that far.

• 25:14Speaker 01

  It was a long beach. It was a long beach. The beach was almost two times as long. It looked like Normandy. Yeah. It was crazy. You were docking, you were falling, your sound was giving out. You were hanks. And also, also, Chris, when you're telling me you took ten trips.

• 25:31Speaker 03

  I think easy.

• 25:33Speaker 01

  You think you took ten trips?

• 25:34Speaker 03

  You think I wouldn't in the face of this?

• 25:35Speaker 01

  Why did you have to take ten trips?

• 25:36Speaker 03

  Someone goes, that's not gonna work. You don't think I'm doing ten at least?

• 25:40Speaker 01

  Ten trips. Well, why did you have to take ten trips?

• 25:42Speaker 03

  I talked about it for six hours. I'm gonna make more than three trips.

• 25:45Matt McCusker?

  Did the umbrella stay after the water?

• 25:47Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 25:48Speaker 01

  Why did you have to do all those trips? Before the water as well.

• 25:50Speaker 03

  It didn't, it didn't, it didn't, it didn't. It fell over, almost got blown away.

• 25:54Speaker 01

  Almost.

• 25:55Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 25:55Matt McCusker?

  Holy counts and.

• 25:56Speaker 03

  Phil caught it. Phil caught it. Phil caught it before it blew away.

• 26:01Speaker 01

  But why did you have to keep filling it up and doing it over and over? Podcast is nuts.

• 26:06Speaker 03

  Well, I had to surround it in.

• 26:09Speaker 01

  The greatest debate.

• 26:09Matt McCusker?

  The country needs another debate.

• 26:12Speaker 01

  Now we're back to the sand debate. Somebody wake Spud up, please. Now he's sleeping.

• 26:16Speaker 03

  Moist and sand.

• 26:18Matt McCusker?

  What was your favorite part from the trip?

• 26:19Speaker 01

  Wake him up.

• 26:20Matt McCusker?

  Of the trip?

• 26:21Speaker 01

  Uh, I swear to God, the argument last night was probably my favorite.

• 26:24Matt McCusker?

  Really?

• 26:25Speaker 01

  I love it. I love a fucking beach, a beach argument.

• 26:27Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 26:28Speaker 01

  My favorite was probably having a catch with my friends.

• 26:30Speaker 03

  Stingray.

• 26:31Speaker 01

  Having a catch with my friends.

• 26:31Matt McCusker?

  Having a catch is nice.

• 26:33Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 26:33Speaker 03

  But the stingray's jumping.

• 26:35Speaker 01

  That was crazy. I thought they were show greats. We're eye floaters.

• 26:38Matt McCusker?

  I wish those guys.

• 26:39Speaker 01

  A lot of eye floaters.

• 26:40Speaker 03

  I also, there was a really great moment and I experienced this personally, but because there's been a lot of like F-15s and stuff flying over. We just saw Chinook. That was pretty cool.

• 26:49Speaker 01

  Chinook was nice.

• 26:50Speaker 03

  And then there was a pack of four, what I thought were.

• 26:53Speaker 01

  That's crazy.

• 26:54Speaker 03

  Navy planes, air force planes ripping down the beach. Turns out, turns out there was just pelicans. There was four pelicans.

• 27:00Speaker 01

  Nate thought it was a duck. They do it every day.

• 27:02Speaker 03

  It was great.

• 27:03Speaker 01

  Nate literally thought the pelican was a duck. That was probably my favorite moment. A pelican laying in the water and Nate goes, yeah, that's a big ass duck.

• 27:10Speaker 01

  God damn it. Trying so hard not to be racist.

• 27:15Matt McCusker?

  I liked watching Nate enjoy the beach.

• 27:17Speaker 01

  Nate enjoying the beach is very nice.

• 27:18Matt McCusker?

  Nate's a, might be pure Salt LYFE now.

• 27:21Speaker 01

  Nah. You think it's Salt LYFE?

• 27:23Matt McCusker?

  I was watching the Salt LYFE gears change.

• 27:25Speaker 01

  He loves it.

• 27:27Speaker 03

  He sat down and pissed in front of a family.

• 27:29Speaker 01

  Family, family photo. Nate's sitting, taking a piss in one fucking foot of water.

• 27:36Speaker 03

  That's Salt LYFE, dude.

• 27:38Matt McCusker?

  That is Salt LYFE.

• 27:41Matt McCusker?

  It's an inch of water.

• 27:43Speaker 01

  Could have been more obvious. That was probably texting their other friends like, these fucking Somalis.

• 27:54Speaker 01

  How did they figure out? Dude, did you know that this place is where they filmed Truman Show?

• 27:58Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, you were saying that.

• 27:59Speaker 01

  It's fucking crazy.

• 28:00Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, it makes, I don't know.

• 28:01Speaker 01

  Makes sense.

• 28:02Matt McCusker?

  As soon as you said it, I was like, yeah, it makes perfect sense.

• 28:04Speaker 01

  It's crazy.

• 28:05Matt McCusker?

  That is pretty nice.

• 28:05Speaker 01

  Just to shift gears.

• 28:06Matt McCusker?

  True. It's a good gear shift. This is a wild, this is kind of a wild town.

• 28:11Speaker 01

  It's cool.

• 28:12Matt McCusker?

  It's very cool.

• 28:13Speaker 01

  It was cool. We like it here.

• 28:14Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, true.

• 28:15Speaker 01

  Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 28:17Matt McCusker?

  We won't get, we won't say where it is.

• 28:18Speaker 01

  Don't worry, I'll defend you. It's more popular, dude. I think Britney Spears is better than fucking.

• 28:24Matt McCusker?

  I defend you. Had him on the ropes. The track by track was devastating.

• 28:28Speaker 03

  You swore.

• 28:29Matt McCusker?

  The track by track was devastating on the beach.

• 28:33Matt McCusker?

  Listening on the beach and just going track by track and being like, fuck.

• 28:37Speaker 01

  Yeah. It's domination. Yeah, there's no comparison. What's that, Agamemnon? How do you say his name? Agamemnon. Yeah. That is Metallica. That was the coolest shit I've ever seen in my life.

• 28:46Matt McCusker?

  That's where I jump off the train. I don't like Metallica like that. I don't think they're that. If you were to just go all bands of all time, they are just, in my opinion.

• 28:56Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 28:56Matt McCusker?

  They're not that good at all.

• 28:57Speaker 01

  Who's better, Prince or Metallica? Everyone's got opinions, bro.

• 28:59Matt McCusker?

  I would say, well, you're back to your other part. Now you're Britney Spears over Santana. I would go.

• 29:05Speaker 03

  Gotta go Metallica here.

• 29:07Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. I, I would genuinely, but I really don't like, I don't like metal. That's the thing. For me, it's tough. I don't like metal at all.

• 29:11Speaker 03

  I know, but I mean, you can even.

• 29:13Speaker 01

  You don't like them, you still have to pick them.

• 29:15Matt McCusker?

  But yeah, they have more songs that I'd be like, okay, this is kind of a slammer than Prince, obviously. Yeah.

• 29:20Speaker 01

  Bench three fifteen.

• 29:20Matt McCusker?

  But you, now we're talking sub top, like sub fifty. What'd he say?

• 29:26Speaker 01

  Bench three fifteen, you literally need to listen to Kill Them All.

• 29:29Matt McCusker?

  What'd he say?

• 29:29Speaker 01

  Bench three fifteen. He's saying if you could bench three fifteen, you would like Metal.

• 29:32Matt McCusker?

  You have to listen to Kill Them All. There's way better metal for lifting, dude.

• 29:36Speaker 01

  Kill Them All.

• 29:37Matt McCusker?

  Bro, I'm sorry. Metallica's like, it's kind of soft for metal. Metallica's kind of soft for metal. It is, dude, it just is. Deftones, real lifters, Deftones.

• 29:47Speaker 01

  Come on, bro.

• 29:47Matt McCusker?

  Tony, hey, look.

• 29:48Speaker 01

  You wanna be SoCal so bad? You wanna be SoCal so bad, bro?

• 29:53Matt McCusker?

  Deftones. I, hey.

• 29:54Speaker 01

  Mighty, mighty ballstones.

• 29:56Matt McCusker?

  Guilty as charged.

• 29:56Speaker 01

  I'm a mighty, mighty ballstones guy.

• 29:58Matt McCusker?

  They rock. Mighty ballstones. I'm just saying Metallica's, I, I don't think is in the pantheon of like the greatest of great bands. They're, they're super successful, more power to them.

• 30:08Speaker 01

  Moscow.

• 30:08Matt McCusker?

  CIA, CIA, put them on.

• 30:09Speaker 01

  Moscow.

• 30:10Matt McCusker?

  CIA put them there. CIA put them there. And then we did Russia. We used them to do Russia.

• 30:15Speaker 01

  You are coming up with CIA put them there.

• 30:17Matt McCusker?

  No, I didn't. That's, that was a fact. The CIA selected to put them there.

• 30:19Speaker 01

  Why did the CIA put them there?

• 30:21Matt McCusker?

  Someone was telling me that, literally on the beach.

• 30:23Speaker 01

  We just said that.

• 30:24Speaker 03

  I said that.

• 30:25Matt McCusker?

  So who said that?

• 30:25Speaker 01

  Drunk Chris said that too.

• 30:26Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 30:27Speaker 01

  And he just made that up.

• 30:28Speaker 03

  Well, I think they, I think he said that.

• 30:30Matt McCusker?

  I think he thought of something with that.

• 30:31Speaker 01

  No, I mean, it's a fair choice. We brought a bands to Moscow. Obviously CIA probably did that.

• 30:36Matt McCusker?

  Exactly.

• 30:36Speaker 01

  But.

• 30:37Matt McCusker?

  They're kind of, I said before, they're responsible for the Ukraine war.

• 30:40Speaker 03

  If you wanna foment, if you wanna foment unrest, if you wanna foment unrest in a communist society.

• 30:47Speaker 01

  You drop what there?

• 30:50Speaker 03

  You enter the sandman.

• 30:52Speaker 01

  You enter the sandman. You go, fellas, I know you guys, what do you think of the Eastern Bloc? And then you said, Bulls on Parade would probably do just as good as Enter Sandman.

• 31:00Matt McCusker?

  I'm saying there was a bunch of bands. Yeah, and to be fair, the rap, the rap part would have kind of blew it.

• 31:05Speaker 01

  Yes, it would, obviously.

• 31:06Matt McCusker?

  But there was other bands that could have rocked Moscow. That was a captive audience.

• 31:11Speaker 01

  Other bands, other bands did do that.

• 31:13Matt McCusker?

  Who else rocked?

• 31:13Speaker 01

  It was, uh, a bunch of bands did that concert. But, but Enter Sandman, Enter Sandman was the moment. It was, I think it was Sabbath.

• 31:21Speaker 03

  They met the moment. Yeah.

• 31:22Speaker 01

  I think Sabbath was on that.

• 31:23Speaker 03

  Really?

• 31:24Speaker 01

  I think a bunch of bands.

• 31:25Matt McCusker?

  Russians are metal as fuck.

• 31:26Speaker 03

  Russians are metal.

• 31:27Speaker 01

  But when you put Metallica, Enter Sandman in Moscow.

• 31:32Matt McCusker?

  That rocked. I've said before, that video rocks.

• 31:35Speaker 01

  I promise I'd challenge anyone to find me a better concert moment than that.

• 31:40Matt McCusker?

  That, I mean, it's historically, it's amazing.

• 31:42Speaker 01

  So that puts them in my mind in the pantheon of Rock Titans.

• 31:47Matt McCusker?

  Yes, obviously.

• 31:48Speaker 01

  Has to.

• 31:49Matt McCusker?

  Dude, in terms of like bands I could put on and be like, damn, these guys rock. I can listen to all their songs. You listen to two Metallica songs, you're done for a month.

• 31:55Speaker 01

  Bench three fifteen.

• 31:57Matt McCusker?

  Come on, dude.

• 31:58Speaker 03

  I don't know, man. They got some real, they got some good ones.

• 32:02Speaker 01

  That's nasty.

• 32:02Speaker 03

  Nothing else matters.

• 32:03Matt McCusker?

  We can do the presidential fitness test right now.

• 32:06Speaker 03

  Unforgiven.

• 32:07Matt McCusker?

  I'd whoop that ass.

• 32:08Speaker 01

  That's my president. I don't run. That's my president. I don't run.

• 32:11Matt McCusker?

  I'm talking, we can, then we can swim.

• 32:14Speaker 01

  Nothing but the police.

• 32:15Matt McCusker?

  We can run, we can swim. We can do a lot of stuff.

• 32:17Speaker 01

  I don't run from nothing.

• 32:19Matt McCusker?

  I'm just saying, dude, I'm just saying, like, there's so many other bands.

• 32:22Speaker 01

  If you listen to Metallica, you'll never run, dude.

• 32:24Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 32:24Speaker 01

  You'll go, dude, I face death, dude, I'll fight them.

• 32:26Matt McCusker?

  You'll fight.

• 32:27Speaker 01

  If I listen to U2, I'm sprinting like this.

• 32:30Matt McCusker?

  That was a true point.

• 32:32Speaker 01

  I'm not a U2 fan. You're gonna go, oh my god, there's a moth. If you listen to Metallica, you go, dude, somebody's entering my house, I'm gonna fuck you. And then kill myself.

• 32:41Matt McCusker?

  Now, if you listen to Metallica, you're saying, fuck, someone's in my apartment, what the fuck?

• 32:47Speaker 01

  You say, I'm gonna stay in my ground in my apartment. Mom, dad, get down.

• 32:53Speaker 01

  You gotta go to school.

• 32:54Matt McCusker?

  I just don't think, but that, that video is sick. And that video was the first time, I swear to god, I went, damn, this fucking kinda rocks.

• 32:59Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 33:00Matt McCusker?

  But that's it for me. It's like, if, if I'm chilling, the last thing I'm thinking about is putting on James Hetfield in large orange.

• 33:08Speaker 01

  If you're chilling and popping Metallica, you are a fucking weirdo. For sure. But it's designed for what, it's, that's like being like

• 33:16Matt McCusker?

  Road to Moscow.

• 33:17Speaker 01

  Fireworks. It's fireworks. You're like, I'm not gonna chill and just light off a fucking firework. If you're a beast. Of course you're not. Honestly, the exact correlation stats of the same guys who chill and put on Metallica. Chill and go. I'm gonna light a firework at two forty-five in the afternoon. But when you need fireworks, you go, bro, that's fireworks.

• 33:39Matt McCusker?

  I think, see, now we're talking about lifting rap. I think rap's better for lifting than Metallica. If I'm gonna get pumped, I'm going rap.

• 33:45Speaker 01

  I can't listen to rap anymore. It's because you, you're like rotted to the core with racism.

• 33:53Speaker 01

  It's gotten so deep. It's just, it just doesn't speak to me anymore.

• 33:57Matt McCusker?

  As a you. Till I Collapse on the lifting playlist. You're not doing Till I Collapse?

• 34:01Speaker 01

  No.

• 34:02Matt McCusker?

  Come on, bro.

• 34:02Speaker 01

  A lot of real slim guy.

• 34:04Matt McCusker?

  Come on, dude.

• 34:05Speaker 01

  Nah. Till I Collapse.

• 34:07Matt McCusker?

  You keep doing.

• 34:07Speaker 01

  No, I listen to any. He is doing PAs. The three fifteen was. Rap stopped probably twenty-four, twenty-five. I was just like, man.

• 34:18Matt McCusker?

  When were you benching three fifteen? You were trying to get off the floor?

• 34:23Speaker 01

  I would say three years ago, maybe.

• 34:28Matt McCusker?

  You did the PAs first, dude. I'm just firing back.

• 34:32Speaker 01

  I'm just here. Pure USDA.

• 34:35Speaker 03

  No chips on this table from poker.

• 34:38Speaker 01

  The only reason, that was a good one, dude. The only reason I lift is for Oklahoma drills. We'll do Oklahoma drills and that's the fitness test.

• 34:46Matt McCusker?

  Come on, here's what you do.

• 34:47Speaker 01

  No helmet, Oklahoma.

• 34:48Matt McCusker?

  You do, you do a band with this wide and go, I could beat you with that. It's like, cool. What? I'm talking, let's run the gamut. Let's do the Olympics.

• 34:54Speaker 01

  Talking about running the gamut.

• 34:56Matt McCusker?

  I'm talking about, let's go fucking crazy. Let's spread it out. Let's go.

• 34:59Speaker 01

  Talking about, let's go crazy. You have, dude. Prince. You're talking to me right now? You have someone who's so on your ass and you have no idea. Hoss is like the Russian in Rocky right now. Just came third place in a bodybuilding competition. That's your true enemy.

• 35:13Matt McCusker?

  Not me.

• 35:14Speaker 01

  You have to go back and get Hoss.

• 35:15Matt McCusker?

  Build each other up. I'm not like CIA Metallica. I wanna go tear, I wanna go tear Russia apart.

• 35:19Speaker 01

  He burnt him on the beach.

• 35:21Matt McCusker?

  Bodybuilding.

• 35:21Speaker 01

  Doesn't matter.

• 35:22Matt McCusker?

  He shredded. I'll still be him.

• 35:23Speaker 01

  I always saw him on the beach. I know. That's crazy.

• 35:25Matt McCusker?

  Hello. You threw the PAs. I didn't throw any PAs.

• 35:28Speaker 01

  You did throw PAs first.

• 35:29Matt McCusker?

  You started.

• 35:29Speaker 01

  The three fifteen bench, when you're losing an argument that bad, is crazy. You lost that argument so badly. What? Dude, you blew it, dude. It was Metallica versus U2. And I, I heard you losing it. Chris, I heard Chris jumped in screaming. I had to, I had to call downstairs. I said, what the fuck is going on? I was behind enemy lines. You went to sleep. Yeah. You retreated. No, I went upstairs. You retreated on guys. I went upstairs. Don't ever hit me again, dude. You retreated on guys. You hit me again. Now, listen, that's twice now, I'm gonna join Matt. We're gonna literally shave your head. We're gonna fucking humiliate you.

• 36:05Matt McCusker?

  I'll fucking kill myself.

• 36:06Speaker 01

  You will, you will. If, don't make me join Matt, dude. We'll make you die.

• 36:10Matt McCusker?

  Go ahead.

• 36:10Speaker 01

  I went upstairs and I laid down nicely. I'm ready to die. And I heard screaming downstairs and I was like, a lot of people, that was, it was unbelievably loud. We're talking loudly. People were screaming. Once I heard the Kiss man, once I heard the Kiss man go from the bar to the couches.

• 36:28Matt McCusker?

  Dude, I was like, cap.

• 36:30Speaker 01

  And I had to call and go, what's the situation? I would call downstairs.

• 36:34Matt McCusker?

  Is you two a guitar forward band?

• 36:37Speaker 01

  I called downstairs and go, yo, what the fuck are you screaming about? He goes, okay, this is what I'm saying. Is, is you two a guitar forward band? And I was like, yo. It's my favorite argument I've ever heard, dude.

• 36:53Speaker 03

  That almost got you out of the room.

• 36:54Speaker 01

  I almost came downstairs, bro. One AM, someone going, you do is not a fucking guitar forward band. And somebody else be like, fuck you pussy. No, dude. That's what I love, dude.

• 37:07Matt McCusker?

  My favorite part was genuinely pulled up the compilation. I have no idea of Edge.

• 37:12Speaker 01

  He pulled Edge up and it was.

• 37:13Matt McCusker?

  I go, here we go, check it out. And it was just like, come on, Edge. And I even jumped ahead and it was like, fuck. That made me laugh. I was like, damn it, Edge.

• 37:22Speaker 01

  Damn it.

• 37:23Matt McCusker?

  I was just assuming, I'm like, this guy's gotta shred.

• 37:26Speaker 03

  I didn't realize the Edge had solo projects.

• 37:29Speaker 01

  Oh, really?

• 37:30Matt McCusker?

  Wait.

• 37:33Matt McCusker?

  Oh, yeah, dude, there's actually fire.

• 37:36Speaker 01

  I listen to Edge all the time. You think you know me.

• 37:40Matt McCusker?

  Dude, I stay edging.

• 37:43Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that one, that really sunk my battleship. I was like, cap, fuck.

• 37:47Speaker 03

  Is it acoustic or is?

• 37:48Matt McCusker?

  It's just like top ten. You would think like top ten moments. Shred, shred, shred. Dude, I pulled the first one on was for real, like, just a try. It was like a D chord, like, do, do, do. I'm like, okay, fuck, here we go. Hit again. And it was just like, he, it was just bad.

• 38:03Speaker 03

  Did he have the yellow, like translucent Oakleys on or?

• 38:06Speaker 01

  No, that's mono.

• 38:07Matt McCusker?

  That's mono, bro.

• 38:08Speaker 03

  I thought the Edge did that too.

• 38:09Speaker 01

  I think he just had sunnies.

• 38:10Matt McCusker?

  Mono would not allow him to wear.

• 38:12Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 38:12Speaker 03

  Mono's double.

• 38:14Speaker 01

  Or a hog.

• 38:15Matt McCusker?

  Right, he'd be feeding the world. He'd be like, actually, that's my thing. Bitch, back up.

• 38:19Speaker 01

  I just sending pictures of U2 to the group. If you Google pictures of U2, you go, these are literally the lamest dudes of all time. Cold, Coldplay buttfucks U2.

• 38:33Matt McCusker?

  That, they're, they've been disqualified. Their last album, they had emojis in the title of their last album.

• 38:37Speaker 01

  I swear to god. Bro.

• 38:39Matt McCusker?

  Track for track, track for track.

• 38:40Speaker 01

  Coldplay recently, sounds like U2 to me. Early Coldplay, I go, alright, I fuck with that. Coldplay's been U2.

• 38:47Matt McCusker?

  Now, do you ever listen to Coldplay's newest, newest album?

• 38:50Speaker 01

  Yeah, every day.

• 38:52Matt McCusker?

  I actually probably listen to it the most out of anyone here. It's, it's real funny. Like, you listen to it, you're like, whoa.

• 38:58Speaker 01

  What? Pick your phone up, dude, it's a scout.

• 39:01Matt McCusker?

  Yo, let's listen to you.

• 39:02Speaker 03

  The Edge.

• 39:02Speaker 01

  Oh, you can't? Oh, the worthy man. It's magnetic to the fucking table.

• 39:09Matt McCusker?

  It's a magnet.

• 39:10Speaker 01

  Oh, here he goes. Oh, shit.

• 39:11Speaker 03

  The Edge, oh, he wore like the Under Armour Cold Gear like cap, like head cap.

• 39:16Matt McCusker?

  I don't know anything about U2. That's my problem. I argued for them and I don't know much about them. I even honestly forgot their guitarist's name, Edge.

• 39:25Speaker 03

  I don't think it's the Edge. I think it's just Edge. Yeah, yeah. If you say the Edge, it's uncouth.

• 39:31Speaker 01

  It's where you're off. Yeah. Thank you, thank you. You ever see this video?

• 39:37Speaker 01

  Thank you, African rose.

• 39:41Matt McCusker?

  Man, I was.

• 39:41Speaker 01

  Let's switch gears and just get.

• 39:42Matt McCusker?

  Good time. What's going on in the world? That's a funny part. It's a victory. I had no idea what's going on.

• 39:48Speaker 01

  Doesn't matter. I was in the Wawa and this fucking kid was low balling a guy on Facebook Marketplace and hit him with, can we buckle down and get serious? And it's the greatest thing I've ever heard in my life.

• 39:57Matt McCusker?

  That's nice. What was he trying to buy you? No idea.

• 40:00Speaker 01

  Pickup truck. Yeah.

• 40:02Matt McCusker?

  We buckle down and get serious on this.

• 40:04Speaker 01

  Also what I do. I just hit Marketplace and haul it.

• 40:07Matt McCusker?

  What are you getting on Marketplace?

• 40:08Speaker 01

  Nothing. I just look at it like porn, yeah.

  Let's see this guy. Look at him.

• 42:24Speaker 03

  Dude.

• 42:25Speaker 01

  He doesn't look like a douchebag.

• 42:26Speaker 03

  I thought it was Under Armour. I thought it was a, I thought it was a collier.

• 42:30Matt McCusker?

  That's Matt's next look. I mean.

• 42:32Speaker 03

  But he actually just has the.

• 42:33Speaker 01

  All right, hold on.

• 42:34Speaker 03

  Finest beanie of all time.

• 42:37Matt McCusker?

  That's.

• 42:37Speaker 01

  Hold on, hold on.

• 42:39Matt McCusker?

  That's a pub legend, bro. That's a pub.

• 42:41Speaker 01

  Legend in the pub. I take it back.

• 42:44Matt McCusker?

  Okay, Edge is a fucking man.

• 42:46Speaker 01

  I haven't seen him in a while. He does look sick as fuck.

• 42:50Speaker 01

  Back with the.

• 42:52Speaker 03

  Yeah, now that's good, but. What do you evolve into?

• 42:57Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 42:58Matt McCusker?

  Fuck, I didn't, I didn't know he was gonna be such a beast.

• 43:00Speaker 01

  Bono's so gay. Yeah.

• 43:02Matt McCusker?

  Feed the world.

• 43:04Speaker 01

  I literally don't like Bono as a dude. Yeah, this man.

• 43:08Matt McCusker?

  Dude.

• 43:08Speaker 01

  U2 over Metallica is nuts.

• 43:10Matt McCusker?

  I'm saying whatever I listen to, I swear to God, if I had to do U2's hits, like the two songs that I like versus Metallica, I would genuinely pick the U2 song. One. Still haven't found what I'm looking for.

• 43:21Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 43:21Matt McCusker?

  Those are my only two U2 songs I know. But I like those songs. One.

• 43:25Speaker 03

  Streets Have No Names.

• 43:27Matt McCusker?

  Streets Have, they played on the beach. It kinda stunk on the beach.

• 43:29Speaker 01

  Yeah, we, we, we went.

• 43:31Matt McCusker?

  One, one.

• 43:32Speaker 03

  The moon is right, dude. You can't listen to U2 under attack.

• 43:35Matt McCusker?

  Ah, yeah, true. It's a private matter.

• 43:37Speaker 03

  You can't listen to Metallica under attack. I will.

• 43:39Speaker 01

  You can go, I'd defend this with my life.

• 43:41Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah, cuz it's, it's literally fighting your interlocutors. Yeah, that's true.

• 43:48Speaker 01

  Going, going from, Chris, going from sitting on the beach, blasting For Whom The Bell Tolls during a thunderstorm at night on the beach in Florida.

• 43:58Speaker 03

  I'm with you.

• 44:00Speaker 01

  Like crazy.

• 44:01Speaker 03

  I'm with you.

• 44:02Speaker 01

  Going inside and hearing people say U2 is better. I mean, what are we talking about?

• 44:08Speaker 03

  It's gonna ruffle your feathers.

• 44:09Speaker 01

  What do we do? Nate, you were out there for that.

• 44:11Speaker 03

  It was incredible.

• 44:12Speaker 01

  If I was playing Sunday Bloody Sunday during that, you would said.

• 44:15Matt McCusker?

  I was.

• 44:16Speaker 01

  Man, that's a big ass duck.

• 44:21Speaker 01

  I mean, realistically, I was inside the horse all night. You were in the horse? I was in the horse all night until, once the sun went down, I broke out of the horse and attacked. What did I tell you today? What? When you and I stood on the beach and I said, I'm, I'm, I'm Agamemnon.

• 44:36Speaker 01

  And I said, tonight, tonight, we leave the horse. I was in the horse. We were on the beach. I said, don't worry, we're gonna get him tonight. And what did we do? Can you admit?

• 44:44Matt McCusker?

  Yo.

• 44:45Speaker 01

  Can you admit?

• 44:46Matt McCusker?

  I'm Odysseus.

• 44:46Speaker 01

  Can you admit?

• 44:47Matt McCusker?

  No.

• 44:48Speaker 01

  I'm Odysseus in the horse. Can you admit we got him in? I built the horse. Hold on, can, did we burn Troy tonight? We burnt Troy.

• 44:53Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 44:53Speaker 01

  We burnt Troy.

• 44:54Matt McCusker?

  I'll concede, I lost on the beach, I lost. However, however.

• 44:59Speaker 01

  Victory, victory made you complacent.

• 45:02Matt McCusker?

  November rain is, I would still argue that's better than.

• 45:04Speaker 01

  Troy's burnt, brother.

• 45:06Matt McCusker?

  You almost lost, bro.

• 45:07Speaker 01

  You almost lost.

• 45:08Matt McCusker?

  Fucking horse.

• 45:09Speaker 01

  Easiest argument of all time. You know how many soldiers almost died in that horse waiting for it? Drunk in Troy.

• 45:14Matt McCusker?

  I will say, look, I can see that loss. I can see that loss.

• 45:17Speaker 01

  Pissing in the horse and shit.

• 45:19Matt McCusker?

  But I just think like, like dialogues like this are really important to me, actually.

• 45:24Speaker 01

  You love U2.

• 45:27Speaker 01

  That's a U2.

• 45:28Matt McCusker?

  Guys, can we submit, like dialogues, dialogues like this is what the country needs. If people just come together, hey, I know we don't agree on everything, doesn't mean I don't like you as a person.

• 45:37Speaker 01

  Hunter McCusker.

• 45:39Matt McCusker?

  Throw on Billy's clips. Why are you such a fucking Nazi?

• 45:43Speaker 01

  For real, you're Fuentes, you're Hunter Biden, dude.

• 45:49Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, a lot of my, uh, kids' friends are listening to Metallica. I was just trying to get a hand around, I'm trying to figure out what it's about.

• 45:54Speaker 01

  Interesting.

• 45:56Matt McCusker?

  That was crazy.

• 45:57Speaker 01

  AIPAC.

• 46:00Speaker 01

  I know, we're talking Gavin now, but AIPAC, Newscom, I never even thought of that.

• 46:04Matt McCusker?

  That's interesting.

• 46:05Speaker 01

  It's interesting.

• 46:06Matt McCusker?

  It's interesting that you say that.

• 46:10Speaker 01

  Twenty twenty, I saw a dude down here with the Trump twenty eight, twenty eight flag.

• 46:14Matt McCusker?

  Dude.

• 46:14Speaker 01

  That's powerful. For whom the bell tolls.

• 46:19Speaker 01

  That's literally laughing, no, he can, Trump twenty twenty eight, you have to be the dumbest fucking guy alive.

• 46:24Matt McCusker?

  I mean.

• 46:25Speaker 03

  He's there with, with like two knives.

• 46:27Matt McCusker?

  No, it's, it's like, it's like third floor balcony to the ground.

• 46:31Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah.

• 46:32Matt McCusker?

  Trump banner.

• 46:32Speaker 01

  He was there last time we were.

• 46:34Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 46:34Speaker 01

  No, no, there's another guy. He has twenty twenty eight.

• 46:37Matt McCusker?

  I don't know. He had just said, he had like, no, it was, it was, uh.

• 46:39Speaker 01

  It's Trump hugging the flag, yeah.

• 46:41Matt McCusker?

  Two hundred and fifty years, then it's, thank you, Mr. Trump.

• 46:43Speaker 01

  Boomers are hard on the two fifty love right now. It's wild.

• 46:45Matt McCusker?

  Two fifty love is sick.

• 46:47Speaker 01

  They were also there for the bicentennial too, which is sick. I do love two fifty.

• 46:51Matt McCusker?

  Two fifty just hits it, dude.

• 46:52Speaker 01

  Love. You gotta put a sticker on your car. Love. My dad put a fucking sticker on everyone's car, two fifty. And you gotta get a SOB sticker.

• 47:00Matt McCusker?

  No, it is.

• 47:01Speaker 01

  I might get a terrorist hunting permit.

• 47:07Speaker 01

  That's tough, yeah, I like that actually. South of the border, terrorist hunting permit.

• 47:11Matt McCusker?

  Still being Trump-pilled is nice.

• 47:13Speaker 01

  They lost all their swag.

• 47:15Matt McCusker?

  Who?

• 47:15Speaker 01

  Trump dogs? What? Yeah. No, just like trying to get us into wars. It's like, terrorist hunting permit was sick. Now they got nothing. They were, they were coming off. They're fine on all sides.

• 47:25Matt McCusker?

  Nine eleven. You know what they should have done is taken a break from war. That would have helped. They've like chilled for a little bit. Maybe, maybe you could get stirred back up. If you're in war all the time, you're like, oh, god damn it, here we go.

• 47:34Speaker 01

  Yeah. That's a great thing. I never thought of it like that, and that's why we have to have conversations.

• 47:38Matt McCusker?

  I mean, it's just.

• 47:40Speaker 01

  It is important to have conversations.

• 47:44Matt McCusker?

  Open the straights, you crazy bastards.

• 47:48Speaker 01

  Praise be to Allah.

• 47:51Speaker 01

  Hit him with a fucking Tyson, praise be to Allah. It's crazy. I wanna eat his children. Praise be to Allah. Easter.

• 48:00Speaker 01

  What's he even talking about? Was Tyson Muslim? Tyson became Muslim for a minute.

• 48:03Matt McCusker?

  That's sick.

• 48:04Speaker 01

  He was fired up.

• 48:05Matt McCusker?

  Damn.

• 48:06Speaker 01

  Lennox Lewis. I wanna eat your children. Lennox Lewis jabbed him to death. Lennox destroyed him.

• 48:15Matt McCusker?

  He did.

• 48:16Speaker 01

  Can't break into the equation.

• 48:17Speaker 03

  I forgot about Lennox Lewis.

• 48:19Speaker 01

  That's a legend, man.

• 48:20Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 48:21Speaker 01

  Legend in the pub.

• 48:22Matt McCusker?

  True, true. He's probably drank with Edge, for real.

• 48:29Speaker 03

  More than likely, yeah.

• 48:30Speaker 01

  Tyson's obviously Metallica. Yeah, that's interesting, man. That's interesting, man. That's what that energy is.

• 48:36Speaker 03

  Lennox Lewis is November rain?

• 48:40Speaker 01

  No. But yeah, sure. Who's, who's, obviously who's better all the time?

• 48:46Speaker 01

  Obviously who's better all the time?

• 48:47Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah.

• 48:47Matt McCusker?

  I'll take that.

• 48:48Speaker 01

  Tyson or Lennox Lewis?

• 48:49Matt McCusker?

  I think that's good common ground.

• 48:50Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah.

• 48:51Speaker 01

  But who won with just jabs?

• 48:55Matt McCusker?

  Volume.

• 48:57Speaker 03

  Volume, it's eight minute tracks.

• 49:01Speaker 01

  Here's the third guitar solo. You guys love this, right? Excuse me while I beat my wife.

• 49:07Matt McCusker?

  You know, I'm gonna sit there and I'm gonna look up Edge guitar solos all night now.

• 49:11Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 49:11Matt McCusker?

  I'm gonna find, just.

• 49:13Speaker 01

  You're gonna have a five minute compilation.

• 49:15Matt McCusker?

  Once, dude. He's, I, I gave him like two solid minutes and I was like.

• 49:18Speaker 01

  You should buy his signature Stratocaster. He has a signature Stratocaster. For real. Shout out to Marcus King for settling the debate.

• 49:27Speaker 01

  A professional musician. I know your brother.

• 49:28Matt McCusker?

  Shout out to him for sure.

• 49:29Speaker 01

  I know your brother Tom said differently.

• 49:30Matt McCusker?

  And we're two too, obviously.

• 49:31Speaker 01

  No.

• 49:32Matt McCusker?

  We got, we got some.

• 49:32Speaker 01

  Tom being included with those other three is preposterous.

• 49:35Matt McCusker?

  Okay, fair enough, but Billy called him.

• 49:37Speaker 01

  You know that.

• 49:38Matt McCusker?

  The record's, I'm very.

• 49:39Speaker 01

  I knew Tom was gonna say November rain.

• 49:40Matt McCusker?

  When it comes to.

• 49:42Speaker 01

  Tom probably put you on in November rain.

• 49:44Matt McCusker?

  For sure.

• 49:45Speaker 01

  Yeah. Tom told me that's like his favorite song.

• 49:48Matt McCusker?

  He's, but he's a musical aficionado, for sure.

• 49:51Speaker 01

  Yeah, but the guys we called are actual. Yeah. They're actually.

• 49:55Matt McCusker?

  It's, it's only two verse one. Two V one. And, and, and two of the guys were led, bro.

• 50:01Speaker 01

  That's the three.

• 50:02Matt McCusker?

  That was leading, that was leading the witness.

• 50:05Speaker 01

  Marcus, Marcus was led. The thousand third was not.

• 50:09Matt McCusker?

  Fair enough, fair enough. Third, third wasn't.

• 50:10Speaker 01

  Third was third, literally said, I opened for U2.

• 50:12Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, fair, fair, fair. Third was not led.

• 50:15Speaker 03

  Do you think the Edge?

• 50:16Matt McCusker?

  No, it's one verse one.

• 50:17Speaker 03

  Do you think the Edge is big enough?

• 50:19Matt McCusker?

  This is very important.

• 50:20Speaker 01

  We're good. We can keep that.

• 50:22Speaker 03

  Do you think Edge has like a historian, like a specific Edge historian?

• 50:26Matt McCusker?

  An Edge Lord?

• 50:27Speaker 01

  Probably.

• 50:29Matt McCusker?

  It's Matt.

• 50:31Speaker 01

  Matt is the Edge Lord. He's gonna start uploading solos to YouTube. Edge Lord sixty nine. He's gonna be the king of the Edge Lord. You gotta make a YouTube channel, Edge Lord sixty nine. Just start clipping Edge, it's like chlamicular.

• 50:47Matt McCusker?

  I'm gonna real make him like, oh guys, this next technique he does is actually really kinda crazy, very atmospheric.

• 50:53Speaker 01

  I like depth in my music and range.

• 50:55Matt McCusker?

  Layers, layers.

• 50:56Speaker 01

  Layers, depth, range.

• 50:57Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. Little dissonance here and there.

• 50:59Speaker 01

  Love dissonance.

• 51:00Matt McCusker?

  I love dissonance, Metallica.

• 51:02Speaker 01

  Yeah, you're fucking right. You're fucking right. There's, that's.

• 51:05Matt McCusker?

  It's like listening to a fucking diesel engine. You're just like, okay.

• 51:08Speaker 01

  It's punching a guy in the face. It's getting work done. You got that diesel running, that's getting work done.

• 51:11Speaker 03

  It's tractor pull.

• 51:12Speaker 01

  You're talking about making out to guys versus punching a guy in the face.

• 51:15Matt McCusker?

  No, I'm talking about telling a woman how you feel.

• 51:19Speaker 01

  Where?

• 51:20Matt McCusker?

  Huh?

• 51:20Speaker 01

  Which, which one does that?

• 51:22Matt McCusker?

  That's fucking U2, dude.

• 51:24Speaker 01

  No, I proposed to Gianna to kill them all.

• 51:27Matt McCusker?

  Now you're just fun. Now you're fun.

• 51:30Speaker 01

  I did. Ride the lightning came on. So will you fucking marry me, babe?

• 51:34Matt McCusker?

  Metallica, that's the craziest thing. Never.

• 51:36Speaker 01

  Bro, I've been to seven of their concerts.

• 51:39Matt McCusker?

  Me too.

• 51:41Speaker 01

  You did.

• 51:45Speaker 01

  This is what it's all about, dude. This is Beat Trip twenty twenty two.

• 51:48Matt McCusker?

  It's just guys having fun. It's so great. Conversations like these are important. You know what's fucked up that I was thinking about? Uh, literally just the other day. And it's kind of like damning. I don't know if I should even unleash this.

• 52:01Matt McCusker?

  It's like not, I guess it's not, well, I'm saying it's probably kind of dumb. But like, you know, people will pay for testosterone. Like, it's like something people, it's like even women too, like get, it helps them. Watching this. Nobody buys, like, if you were to buy estrogen, what'd you say? You're soft launching this?

• 52:15Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 52:16Matt McCusker?

  Y'all take. No, I'm just trying, I'm just trying to make sure, I'm trying to organize it right in my head.

• 52:20Speaker 01

  Things, dude, this is important. We have conversation.

• 52:22Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, good, good point. This is a very important thing to have a conversation about. People do buy. Hey, he can do it. It's a little bro, man. He's gonna do what he does. You're saying you can't buy estrogen? No, I'm saying you wouldn't, you wouldn't buy estrogen. You wouldn't. You wouldn't. Like, D one fucking crashing. It wouldn't make any sense. Buy, people will pay good money for testosterone. Yeah. It's the essence of a man.

• 52:41Speaker 01

  How much does it cost?

• 52:43Matt McCusker?

  I don't know.

• 52:43Speaker 01

  I don't either.

• 52:44Matt McCusker?

  But I'm saying people pay money for testosterone. You would pay money to get estrogen out of you. Girls are actually paying money for testosterone. I know. This is how, that's how damning I, I'm like, that's really bad.

• 52:53Speaker 01

  It's almost like guys rule and girls drool.

• 52:55Matt McCusker?

  That's kind, I mean scientifically proven.

• 52:57Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 52:58Matt McCusker?

  If you were to inject estrogen, you'd have like problems.

• 53:01Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 53:01Matt McCusker?

  You'd be fucked up. I think there are dudes who take estrogen though.

• 53:05Speaker 01

  We've had problems.

• 53:06Matt McCusker?

  Michigan plates?

• 53:07Speaker 03

  Someone's had to need estrogen and get it injected though, right?

• 53:12Speaker 03

  Someone's had to need estrogen.

• 53:13Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, there's dudes who take T. And their estrogen levels go to zero.

• 53:16Speaker 01

  I had to get estrogen because I had too much T.

• 53:18Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, my T was super high when I was ten.

• 53:19Speaker 01

  Yeah. My T was too high. They're like, dude, you're gonna do something.

• 53:22Matt McCusker?

  And I think some girls do.

• 53:24Speaker 03

  Are you being serious?

• 53:25Speaker 01

  I, I went, I got ways well. I got my blood taken. And they're like, dude, your, your T is at twelve thousand.

• 53:31Speaker 03

  That I believe they said that, yeah.

• 53:33Speaker 01

  No, they said, no T. You need less.

• 53:36Matt McCusker?

  You need estrogen. High E.

• 53:37Speaker 03

  We need to balance what's going on in your system.

• 53:39Speaker 01

  They said you're too jacked.

• 53:40Speaker 03

  You're about to OD on T.

• 53:41Speaker 01

  Yes.

• 53:42Matt McCusker?

  High E.

• 53:43Speaker 01

  Is that the reason you keep winning arguments about, against your girlfriend, Chris?

• 53:50Speaker 03

  The reason you can't hear the depth and range of U two is the T's too high.

• 53:55Speaker 01

  And I said, can you please play Enter Sam and T jacked?

• 53:58Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah.

• 54:01Speaker 01

  It is, obviously, obviously, high T music, Metallica. Low T music, U two.

• 54:07Speaker 03

  Ways, ways to well be, ways to well be like Chernobyl.

• 54:10Matt McCusker?

  Hold on, can we agree on that? He made a concert dedicated to AIDS for it.

• 54:14Speaker 01

  One of them's high T. One of them's high T.

• 54:16Matt McCusker?

  Getting AIDS is high T. Kenny, hold on. Getting AIDS is high T. Receiving AIDS might not be, giving AIDS is high T. Getting AIDS is high T.

• 54:24Speaker 01

  AIDS, AIDS is wrong. AIDS is wrong.

• 54:27Matt McCusker?

  AIDS is high T. AIDS is high T.

• 54:29Speaker 01

  AIDS is high.

• 54:30Matt McCusker?

  Giving AIDS is high T. Getting AIDS is low T. No, no. AIDS is high T.

• 54:34Speaker 01

  There's only one way to get it. There's only one way to give it. You gotta have the highest T.

• 54:39Matt McCusker?

  AIDS is top of the mountain T.

• 54:40Speaker 01

  AIDS is definitely the highest T.

• 54:42Matt McCusker?

  So we're right where we started. Now I'll give you that. We were right where we started. U two, dude.

• 54:46Speaker 01

  U two is low T.

• 54:48Matt McCusker?

  That's the highest T possible. Being like, damn.

• 54:50Speaker 01

  Metallica's high T.

• 54:51Matt McCusker?

  He was trying to vanquish the highest T disease.

• 54:54Speaker 01

  Exactly. That's girl shit.

• 54:55Matt McCusker?

  No way.

• 54:56Speaker 01

  Saw the highest.

• 54:57Matt McCusker?

  He wants to party.

• 54:58Speaker 01

  He saw the highest T.

• 54:59Matt McCusker?

  No, dude.

• 55:00Speaker 01

  He saw the AIDS. He saw AIDS. He was like, yo, that's high T. I gotta show.

• 55:05Speaker 01

  These guys are partying too hard.

• 55:07Matt McCusker?

  There's gotta be a way to make money off this. Couldn't party for a while. They, he wanted to party back on.

• 55:11Speaker 01

  Oh, he wanted that.

• 55:12Matt McCusker?

  Dude, the party's on. Dude, if AIDS stops, party's on. He was looking for a cure to Fauci's disease.

• 55:18Speaker 01

  True. U two's Fauci.

• 55:19Matt McCusker?

  Yeah. Dude, Metallica CIA plants. They basically started the war in Ukraine. Let's be honest, let's be honest.

• 55:26Speaker 01

  Chris loves the war in Ukraine.

• 55:28Matt McCusker?

  That's crazy.

• 55:30Speaker 03

  I don't love it.

• 55:30Speaker 01

  What a disaster that's been.

• 55:33Speaker 03

  I don't love it, but.

• 55:34Matt McCusker?

  That's crazy. That's what they use to get everyone. Just say, just say that I can dance, man. I'm not, I'm not, I'm getting attacked. I can dance.

• 55:40Speaker 01

  After, after what you did to Billy last night in Las Lumbres?

• 55:43Matt McCusker?

  I didn't do anything.

• 55:44Speaker 01

  I mean, I could hear him screaming, dude. I heard what you did to the boy.

• 55:48Matt McCusker?

  What did I do?

• 55:49Speaker 01

  I went upstairs and Billy got fucking mugged, dude.

• 55:52Matt McCusker?

  I don't, it was.

• 55:53Speaker 01

  I heard that.

• 55:54Matt McCusker?

  I saw a flaw in the argument. I saw a flaw in the argument.

• 55:56Speaker 01

  Smiled in his face and went to bed.

• 55:58Matt McCusker?

  No, I, I was saying goodnight, genuinely.

• 56:00Speaker 01

  Spud told me you went, huh, and went to bed.

• 56:03Matt McCusker?

  I was tired.

• 56:04Speaker 01

  I think it's a great move, by the way. I commended you.

• 56:06Matt McCusker?

  I had nothing but good.

• 56:07Speaker 01

  This morning, when the three of us were outside.

• 56:09Speaker 03

  Spud took up the mantle though.

• 56:11Speaker 01

  When you mean Spud sat outside this morning and he told me what you did, I was like, hats off. That's the ultimate, that's a knockout. Leaving an argument when someone's yelling at you and going, huh, and going to bed is a knockout, dude.

• 56:23Matt McCusker?

  I don't think I was trying to do it. You commended me on a move on the beach. I didn't know I was making a move.

• 56:28Speaker 01

  I respect the moves.

• 56:29Matt McCusker?

  I do, I do. It might be subconscious.

• 56:32Speaker 03

  Yeah, it just comes naturally.

• 56:33Speaker 01

  My favorite moves are just be like, dude, you see how I can admit when I'm wrong and you can't? Anytime someone proves you wrong and you go, see how I said, yes, you're right on this? You haven't said that once?

• 56:44Matt McCusker?

  Well, it's a trap because you're like, yeah, I do. And you're like, fuck, now I'm stuck in it. You're arguing about, you're arguing about something different now. That's what I'm saying. I was taking on machine gun fire. And he went to sleep.

• 56:53Speaker 01

  Dude, I.

• 56:54Matt McCusker?

  On Guy's trip.

• 56:55Speaker 01

  I couldn't defend you any longer. I was also, you don't even realize this, I had a third front.

• 56:59Matt McCusker?

  I'm going.

• 57:00Speaker 01

  Chris is back there screaming about shit. I'm.

• 57:02Matt McCusker?

  I was not.

• 57:02Speaker 01

  I'm going, Chris.

• 57:03Matt McCusker?

  Chris was in the fucking bullpen. I was waiting to get him out. I was on the porch having a great time.

• 57:07Speaker 01

  Bro, you had the car.

• 57:08Matt McCusker?

  Before that.

• 57:09Speaker 01

  Screaming.

• 57:11Matt McCusker?

  Bill, by the table. He was getting wrapped up.

• 57:13Speaker 01

  His throat out being like, he started the top one thousand. And we're like, we're talking about you doing Metallica.

• 57:19Speaker 03

  Your timeline's a mess.

• 57:23Matt McCusker?

  Good D, was I not? Was I not out on the porch with you having a conversation about?

• 57:28Speaker 01

  At some point, at some point, you certainly were.

• 57:30Matt McCusker?

  That was way after. No, it wasn't. We were having the argument.

• 57:32Speaker 01

  What do you mean? You saying you're out on the deck the whole time?

• 57:35Matt McCusker?

  When you guys got into this new thing.

• 57:37Speaker 03

  I walked away from it. I went.

• 57:41Speaker 01

  You went like this.

• 57:46Speaker 03

  I got down to Atlantis more Saturday.

• 57:50Matt McCusker?

  The original, the original argument, that was my favorite, is when Tommy was making the risotto. Chris came in, you're like, you making mushroom risotto? And Tommy just goes, yeah. And just walks away.

• 58:00Speaker 01

  My favorite. That was, that was, that was, now, look, this is one of the finest moments of mine. I like to stir it up. When you leaned over and talked to him and went, what are you making, risotto?

• 58:11Speaker 03

  I didn't say it like that.

• 58:13Speaker 01

  Sure. However, you, you were like.

• 58:15Speaker 03

  Enthusiastic, you said. Are you making the wild mushroom risotto?

• 58:18Matt McCusker?

  You were. I, I was telling him I'm enthusiastic.

• 58:21Speaker 03

  Cranky response.

• 58:22Speaker 01

  Now, when you did that, I, I was behind you and I pushed you back in towards him, which made me very happy. I was right behind you. I was out of frame. Pushed you in.

• 58:32Matt McCusker?

  I knew you were being.

• 58:35Matt McCusker?

  I knew you were being enthusiastic about it. I was like, it was enthusiasm.

• 58:38Speaker 01

  But you knew Tommy was gonna be furious.

• 58:41Speaker 03

  Why?

• 58:42Matt McCusker?

  He thought you were coming. He thought you were coming. Yeah. Where's my dinner?

• 58:45Speaker 01

  When someone's making dinner and you come in hammered and go, you making the risotto?

• 58:51Speaker 01

  I don't think it's wrong.

• 58:52Matt McCusker?

  It wasn't.

• 58:53Speaker 01

  But I knew he was taking it.

• 58:54Speaker 03

  I was, I was like, that's awesome. Because you made it before. It was awesome.

• 58:58Speaker 01

  You didn't say that's awesome. You literally said, making the risotto? And pushing you into that made me feel very good.

• 59:05Speaker 03

  Well, when I, when I entered it in to be sent out, I, I, I thought it was positive.

• 59:11Speaker 01

  Your mentality would never.

• 59:11Matt McCusker?

  It was my smile before leaving. Same thing. I was like, goodnight, everybody.

• 59:14Speaker 03

  I had no intention of.

• 59:16Speaker 01

  Nobody would have thought.

• 59:17Speaker 03

  Speaking down to the wild mushroom risotto, it's great.

• 59:21Matt McCusker?

  I mean, it's hard, but these are conversations we have to have. We do need to have.

• 59:25Speaker 01

  By the way, by the way, these are conversations we literally contractually have to have.

• 59:32Speaker 01

  So we're doing it.

• 59:37Matt McCusker?

  Literally. It's very important we have these conversations.

• 59:40Speaker 01

  Personally, I think it's funny.

• 59:42Matt McCusker?

  It is.

• 59:43Speaker 01

  I would like to hear this argument. You know?

• 59:46Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 59:47Speaker 01

  This one, this entire podcast.

• 59:49Matt McCusker?

  It's a good argument. Yeah. It's a good argument. Then you can start saying.

• 59:52Speaker 03

  That just has to be talked about.

• 59:54Speaker 01

  Not a lot of guys tell it like it is, like we are right now.

• 59:56Matt McCusker?

  I agree. Totally agree.

• 59:58Speaker 01

  Very important. Man, that's a big ass duck.

  Anyway, we're back.

• 1:01:48Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, we're fired up.

• 1:01:49Speaker 01

  I never thought, I went into it, I saw a meme that said Elliot Page was playing Achilles.

• 1:01:54Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 1:01:54Speaker 01

  Rage. So right when I saw it, I was like, why's Achilles running like that? Why's Achilles acting like a pussy? Achilles gets speared right away. And I was like.

• 1:02:05Matt McCusker?

  Oh, you thought it was Achilles in the opening scene?

• 1:02:07Speaker 01

  Literally while I was watching, I was like, damn, dude, that is a terrible portrayal.

• 1:02:12Matt McCusker?

  So who, who was Elliot?

• 1:02:13Speaker 01

  Paige actually playing, just a random soldier. Yeah, yeah. And it was actually, truthfully, and I'm gonna get called a lib for this, I liked it. I liked Elliot Page in Hades as well, liked it. He's in the underworld. Sue me, sue me. This conversation. I'll see you in court.

• 1:02:33Speaker 01

  Strong and powerful. I liked it. It was strong and powerful.

• 1:02:36Matt McCusker?

  It was just enough casting controversy, too much, too much would have been a problem.

• 1:02:40Speaker 01

  Nah, yeah.

• 1:02:41Matt McCusker?

  You need a little casting.

• 1:02:42Speaker 01

  Astro world in the beginning was. Astro world pissed me off. That was crazy. They literally had his neck tattoos in the fucking. Directly into what I thought was Achilles pissed me off. What? I thought it was that and then Achilles, I was like this. Damon looks like a hairless champ, high day.

• 1:02:58Matt McCusker?

  Nice.

• 1:02:59Speaker 01

  Damon's definitely Metallica. Fucking rip. He's more Metallica than you two in this. Yeah.

• 1:03:03Matt McCusker?

  Fair, I gotta see it for my own opinion, but.

• 1:03:06Speaker 01

  Elliot Page you too. Elliot Page you too.

• 1:03:09Matt McCusker?

  Hmm, I wouldn't say, I wouldn't say that.

• 1:03:11Speaker 01

  It is what it is.

• 1:03:12Matt McCusker?

  I would say Patton's in.

• 1:03:14Speaker 01

  We're beyond that. Definitely Metallica. He's Metallica.

• 1:03:17Matt McCusker?

  You can't just claim all the guys you like, you gotta Metallica, this is bullshit.

• 1:03:23Matt McCusker?

  I didn't even, I didn't even see the movie.

• 1:03:24Speaker 01

  That was one of the greatest things I've ever heard about. I'm gonna name something, you tell me, you tell me Metallica or U2. Football.

• 1:03:32Matt McCusker?

  I'll give you Metallica for that.

• 1:03:34Speaker 01

  Well, we're done.

• 1:03:36Matt McCusker?

  Fair.

• 1:03:36Speaker 01

  See you at the game.

• 1:03:38Matt McCusker?

  That's fine.

• 1:03:39Speaker 01

  Skateboarding.

• 1:03:41Matt McCusker?

  Metallica.

• 1:03:42Speaker 01

  Okay, trying to think of something else that's cool as fuck.

• 1:03:47Speaker 01

  Fishing.

• 1:03:51Matt McCusker?

  That could go U2.

• 1:03:53Speaker 01

  Deep sea choppy.

• 1:03:54Matt McCusker?

  Dude.

• 1:03:55Speaker 01

  Deep sea choppy.

• 1:03:56Matt McCusker?

  Sorry, but here's what you're doing, you're narrowing the dimensions.

• 1:03:59Speaker 01

  No, I'm just naming the coolest possible. You don't want choppy, you want choppy waters? Bro, it's a hell of a story, we led to tell the tale. The coolest, dude.

• 1:04:07Matt McCusker?

  You guys don't want choppy waters.

• 1:04:08Speaker 01

  Decided it will favor us.

• 1:04:10Matt McCusker?

  You guys don't want, if I was deep sea fishing, that's U2.

• 1:04:13Speaker 01

  Deep sea fishing, U2.

• 1:04:14Matt McCusker?

  If I'm on, if I'm on choppy waters, I don't want Metallica playing at all.

• 1:04:18Speaker 01

  It's the only thing that's gonna save you.

• 1:04:21Matt McCusker?

  Cap, as captain of the ship, I would say, turn that fucking racket off, I need to focus.

• 1:04:26Speaker 01

  Captain of what?

• 1:04:26Matt McCusker?

  The proverbial ship on choppy waters.

• 1:04:28Speaker 01

  SS Mac.

• 1:04:29Matt McCusker?

  You're the one asking me. You were asking me about it, I'm saying, well, clearly I'm, I'm piloting or captaining.

• 1:04:35Speaker 01

  Yeah, all right, but you agree skateboarding, football or Metallica?

• 1:04:38Matt McCusker?

  I would say, yeah, for sure.

• 1:04:40Speaker 01

  What would you say U2 for?

• 1:04:43Matt McCusker?

  Obviously.

• 1:04:44Speaker 01

  The Grove. The Grove, The Grove.

• 1:04:48Matt McCusker?

  That's Talke.

• 1:04:49Speaker 01

  If you put on U2 at the Grove, they'd throw the fuck up.

• 1:04:51Matt McCusker?

  No, they wouldn't, bro, if you put on a U2, one of U2's biggest hits, yeah, bro, if you put on one of the biggest hits of the Grove. If you, dude, there'd be ladies there, there'd be some.

• 1:04:59Speaker 01

  Grove's also pretty docile, they could fucking, they're pretty fucking shit faced, so we're on heroin.

• 1:05:05Matt McCusker?

  If you put on a U2 banger, if you throw Sunday, Bloody Sunday at the Grove, they're gonna go.

• 1:05:09Speaker 01

  But you put on, you put on Enter Saman, Beer Hill's going nuts. You're hearing it from Shane's dad's house.

• 1:05:15Matt McCusker?

  True, but then again, you're with your kids, you're like, all right, man, that's devil music. That stuff's kinda devil music, man, I'm not, I'm not into that stuff.

• 1:05:21Speaker 01

  I hear you.

• 1:05:21Matt McCusker?

  Devil music, it's not for the family.

• 1:05:23Speaker 01

  Rock and roll is devils.

• 1:05:25Matt McCusker?

  Metallica more so, you know, it's devil music.

• 1:05:30Speaker 01

  Well, it's, you know.

• 1:05:31Matt McCusker?

  That's all, just.

• 1:05:33Speaker 01

  Bringing up a good point. I mean, this is a conversation you have to have. We love Christ, he's bringing up a good point.

• 1:05:38Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 1:05:38Speaker 01

  It's an important conversation.

• 1:05:41Matt McCusker?

  I didn't wanna tap the ultimate boss, but yeah, dude.

• 1:05:43Speaker 01

  You're saying.

• 1:05:44Matt McCusker?

  My boss.

• 1:05:45Speaker 01

  True, Jesus.

• 1:05:48Speaker 01

  Jesus, Metallica or U2?

• 1:05:50Matt McCusker?

  It's U2, feed the world, feed the world.

• 1:05:52Speaker 01

  launder money through fake. Flipping the tables. Worlds.

• 1:05:55Matt McCusker?

  Huh?

• 1:05:55Speaker 01

  When he flipped the table.

• 1:05:56Matt McCusker?

  That's Talke.

• 1:05:57Speaker 01

  When it's hard, his most hardcore shit, getting nailed to the cross, was that U2 or Metallica? Your sins.

• 1:06:04Matt McCusker?

  I'm being honest, that's gotta be Talke for, if you're getting.

• 1:06:06Speaker 01

  Nothing else matters. Nothing else matters is playing while I was.

• 1:06:10Matt McCusker?

  I don't know, he might not like Metal, uh, Jesus would like Metallica, I think.

• 1:06:13Speaker 01

  Jesus loves everybody.

• 1:06:14Matt McCusker?

  That's what I'm saying, I can't make that up, I can't speak for it, yeah.

• 1:06:16Speaker 03

  I think U2 is more likely Jesus lovers than Metallica as a band.

• 1:06:21Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, true.

• 1:06:22Speaker 01

  Jesus lovers.

• 1:06:23Speaker 03

  Yeah, yeah.

• 1:06:24Speaker 01

  Like.

• 1:06:25Matt McCusker?

  They're Catholic.

• 1:06:26Speaker 01

  Not Catholics. They are Catholics. Weird Protestants. I think U2's Catholic. No, no, no, I mean, the people that would support U2 over Metallica. Yeah, true. Dude. The Crusades, the Crusades, Metallica or?

• 1:06:39Matt McCusker?

  The majority of Catholics are old ladies, they're going U2 or Metallica.

• 1:06:42Speaker 03

  U2's Irish Catholic, aren't they, no?

• 1:06:43Speaker 01

  Fellas, the Crusades, is that Metallica or U2?

• 1:06:48Speaker 01

  King Baldwin.

• 1:06:49Matt McCusker?

  That's, uh, yes, I don't know, that's a tough one. King Baldwin would not have liked Metallica.

• 1:06:54Speaker 01

  Speaking about lifting.

• 1:06:55Matt McCusker?

  That's, dude, that's medieval Christianity.

• 1:06:57Speaker 03

  I thought the French, I thought the French started the Crusades.

• 1:06:59Speaker 01

  I work out to the music that plays when that sex scene happens in Kingdom of Heaven.

• 1:07:04Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, but I'm talking about the actual Crusades, not the movie.

• 1:07:08Speaker 01

  Hannibal Lecter.

• 1:07:09Matt McCusker?

  They wouldn't have liked that crap, dude, the fucking medieval fucking priests would like turn this crap off.

• 1:07:14Speaker 01

  They would have thought they went to heaven.

• 1:07:16Matt McCusker?

  Metallica, dude?

• 1:07:17Speaker 01

  Yes.

• 1:07:17Matt McCusker?

  It was, this is, this is devil music.

  No.

• 1:07:20Matt McCusker?

  Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

• 1:07:21Speaker 01

  It was a turn.

• 1:07:21Matt McCusker?

  They started calling it devil music because they wouldn't give people a cut of their stuff, they said, oh, this is for the devil, guys, don't listen to this.

• 1:07:29Speaker 01

  Dude, it's literally metal is, metal, metal is, if you had to pick, okay, if you had to pick the official music for devil worshiping, it would be metal.

• 1:07:38Speaker 03

  Yeah, but I don't think, I don't think Metallica is really.

• 1:07:40Speaker 01

  They're not devil. They're not, they're, they're not even really metal. They just rock.

• 1:07:44Speaker 03

  They soft.

• 1:07:44Matt McCusker?

  They do rock.

• 1:07:45Speaker 01

  Yeah.

  King Baldwin.

• 1:07:47Matt McCusker?

  It's soft, it's soft metal.

• 1:07:48Speaker 01

  King Baldwin. Metallica or U2?

• 1:07:52Matt McCusker?

  I don't know, I, I.

• 1:07:53Speaker 01

  He's a leper that conquered Jerusalem.

• 1:07:57Matt McCusker?

  Yeah, that's Metal, that's Metallica for sure. I'm just saying, I don't know if he would, Medieval Mind, I don't, I think would have been like, turn, what the fuck is this?

• 1:08:04Speaker 01

  I'm not even gonna pretend to understand grasping, getting into a medieval mind.

• 1:08:08Matt McCusker?

  I've been reading about Medieval Mind.

• 1:08:10Speaker 01

  I can't even pretend to get into it. Who wrote it?

• 1:08:13Matt McCusker?

  What'd he say?

• 1:08:13Speaker 01

  Who wrote it?

• 1:08:14Matt McCusker?

  He wrote what?

• 1:08:14Speaker 01

  The Medieval Mind.

• 1:08:15Matt McCusker?

  No, no, it's not a book, I'm saying, I've been reading books about the Medieval Mind.

• 1:08:18Speaker 01

  Who wrote it? Who wrote it, the books?

• 1:08:21Matt McCusker?

  Uh, fuck, what was the guy's name? I don't, it's in my room right there, I can grab it, but.

• 1:08:27Speaker 01

  Get it.

• 1:08:28Matt McCusker?

  I'll get it right now.

• 1:08:30Speaker 01

  I have full control over you, look at how I command you. Bend to my will, Metallica.

• 1:08:38Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, don't worry about that, don't worry about that, don't you worry about that.

• 1:08:42Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 1:08:43Speaker 01

  I've been in the horse for way too long.

• 1:08:46Speaker 01

  That U2 is Catholic.

• 1:08:49Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:08:49Speaker 01

  Yeah, U2 is actually Catholic.

• 1:08:51Speaker 03

  And I bet once they got, once they got down and were fighting in Jerusalem.

• 1:08:55Matt McCusker?

  Charles Taylor or Secular Age.

• 1:08:57Speaker 01

  Good boy, put that on the table.

• 1:09:01Speaker 01

  It's a good book.

• 1:09:02Speaker 03

  What, doesn't matter, it's bad.

• 1:09:03Matt McCusker?

  Thank boy.

• 1:09:04Speaker 01

  Charles Taylor, sounds like a Protestant.

• 1:09:06Matt McCusker?

  Secular Age, he could be.

• 1:09:08Speaker 01

  Sounds like a proddy.

• 1:09:09Matt McCusker?

  But yeah, he's talking about the Medieval Mind, very porous, whereas we're kinda buffered.

• 1:09:15Speaker 01

  I'm reading a book on vaxes right now, honestly, reading a book on vaxes.

• 1:09:19Matt McCusker?

  How's that going?

• 1:09:20Speaker 01

  Pretty good, finished it.

• 1:09:23Matt McCusker?

  What did he say?

• 1:09:23Speaker 01

  Know what I did that was good? I'm reading it. Suzanne Humphrey's book, she was on Reagan, I read it and had audiobook going at the same time, it was fucking awesome, you ever do that?

• 1:09:33Matt McCusker?

  No, but I heard that is sick. Can I ask you?

• 1:09:35Speaker 01

  You're really trying to fucking pay attention? What's all you're reading? Yes, it's awesome, it's like you're in school with your English teacher.

• 1:09:41Speaker 03

  That is kinda nice. Have you ever put it on like three times speed to see if you can read faster?

• 1:09:45Matt McCusker?

  That bothers, that fucking bothers me.

• 1:09:47Speaker 01

  I read it like two times speed.

• 1:09:50Speaker 03

  So you're like trying to pick up the pace?

• 1:09:51Speaker 01

  Go up with it, I was at like two times. Appreciate that.

• 1:09:55Speaker 01

  Yeah, I appreciate that.

• 1:09:56Matt McCusker?

  I never, I, two times, three times, it fucks me up, it's too fast.

• 1:10:00Speaker 03

  Yeah, the rhythm's off.

• 1:10:01Matt McCusker?

  What, what's the prostate hoax, I saw you gave, uh.

• 1:10:05Speaker 01

  Oh, it's a completely made, the prostate test, they fucking made it up, and the dude who made up the test was like, please stop doing this to people.

• 1:10:11Matt McCusker?

  Really?

• 1:10:12Speaker 01

  To check, um, prostate.

• 1:10:14Matt McCusker?

  Oh, to go up people's butts?

• 1:10:15Speaker 01

  Dude, they go up your ass.

• 1:10:16Speaker 03

  Gives people cancer, doesn't it, that's why they're like really, they don't like doing it.

• 1:10:19Speaker 01

  Fucking annihilates.

• 1:10:20Speaker 03

  The prostate test gives you cancer.

• 1:10:23Speaker 01

  Cancer?

• 1:10:25Speaker 01

  U2.

• 1:10:27Speaker 01

  A made up disease, put on this world.

• 1:10:29Speaker 03

  Yeah.

  Is Metallica. There's like a number. There's a lot of negative things, AIDS, U2.

• 1:10:34Matt McCusker?

  U2.

• 1:10:39Speaker 01

  There's a lot of negative things that are also. That's true.

• 1:10:42Matt McCusker?

  I'm the family doctor.

• 1:10:44Speaker 01

  Being the family doctor, U2. You're a family doctor, U2.

• 1:10:49Matt McCusker?

  Giving them stuff I find on the internet, Metallica.

• 1:10:51Speaker 01

  That's Metallica.

• 1:10:52Matt McCusker?

  That's how I medicate them.

• 1:10:53Speaker 01

  No, Ajax is the only Metallica, dude.

• 1:10:57Speaker 01

  Getting water poured on you on your way to your fucking Wawa interview.

• 1:11:01Matt McCusker?

  Throwing a metal baseball bat.

• 1:11:03Speaker 01

  Ajax lives.

• 1:11:04Matt McCusker?

  Ajax is the Metallica.

• 1:11:05Speaker 01

  You've done so much Metallica shit, dude, you're way more Metallica than U2.

• 1:11:09Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 1:11:10Speaker 01

  I was just arguing. I hate to admit this, I'm more U2 than Metallica. I'm more U2. Reverse.

• 1:11:17Matt McCusker?

  How do you feel like you're more U2?

• 1:11:18Speaker 01

  I'm a big soft gay guy.

• 1:11:19Matt McCusker?

  No, you're, you're Metallica.

• 1:11:21Speaker 01

  He's fishing for compliments, bro.

• 1:11:23Matt McCusker?

  Huh?

• 1:11:24Speaker 01

  That's U2.

• 1:11:27Speaker 01

  That's girl stuff. No, I'm not just hyping you, you're more Metallica. I wish I was more Metallica. I wish I was more.

• 1:11:34Speaker 03

  His anima, his anima is U2.

• 1:11:36Speaker 01

  Unfortunately, it is. His essence. My essence is U2.

• 1:11:39Matt McCusker?

  My demons are Metal, my demons are Metallica.

• 1:11:42Speaker 01

  Your demons are fucking. When you're smashing oil bottles, that's Metallica, that's not U2.

• 1:11:48Speaker 03

  You're definitely U.

• 1:11:49Speaker 01

  Slamming the dishwasher, never to Metal, never to U2, it's always to Metallica.

• 1:11:57Speaker 01

  You're, you can't listen to Metallica because you will Hulk out.

• 1:11:59Matt McCusker?

  I will say smashing a glass, smashing a glass into the top of your dishwasher is the best healing in the world.

• 1:12:07Speaker 01

  No banner.

• 1:12:08Matt McCusker?

  Punching holes in the wall.

• 1:12:09Speaker 01

  That's Metallica.

• 1:12:10Matt McCusker?

  That's Metallica as hell. True, fuck.

• 1:12:13Speaker 01

  You're on the path.

• 1:12:15Matt McCusker?

  I mean.

• 1:12:15Speaker 01

  Just put on Kill Them All.

• 1:12:16Matt McCusker?

  I, I tell you, I don't like metal.

• 1:12:19Speaker 01

  Dude.

• 1:12:22Speaker 03

  It's already playing in your head, is, I guess.

• 1:12:25Speaker 01

  You would, and look, you and me are different. I wish. You're sprinting, dude. I am U2, you are Metallica, you wish you were U2.

• 1:12:35Speaker 01

  Where we both wish. That's true. You're not living in harmony.

• 1:12:40Speaker 01

  Tiger can't deny his stripes, I know what I am. You skateboarded.

• 1:12:46Matt McCusker?

  True, still do.

• 1:12:49Speaker 01

  That's Metallica. That is Metallica. Although, I will, yeah, riding a scooter to the gym, U2. Knocking on the gym, Metallica.

• 1:13:00Matt McCusker?

  I ride my bicycle, which is, that's U2.

• 1:13:02Speaker 01

  Riding a bicycle to the gym, U2. Crashing your bicycle, fighting a dog, bleeding at the gym, Metallica. You're pretending to be U2, you keep being Metallica.

• 1:13:15Speaker 01

  Trying to keep a lid on it is Metallica. Hanging it, white knuckling it, Metallica. You are literally Metallica.

• 1:13:24Matt McCusker?

  I'm denial.

• 1:13:27Speaker 01

  You are.

• 1:13:31Speaker 01

  Watch a Metallica documentary. You'll fucking love it.

• 1:13:34Matt McCusker?

  I'll have to check it out.

• 1:13:35Speaker 01

  Rules, dude.

• 1:13:35Matt McCusker?

  Do you guys, that was the ultimate Trojan horse into my psyche now. I'm like, dude, Metallica rules.

• 1:13:42Speaker 01

  You were literally swimming. I was standing next to Billy on the beach. It was.

• 1:13:47Matt McCusker?

  He gave me the whole plan.

• 1:13:48Speaker 01

  It was the thickest.

• 1:13:52Matt McCusker?

  I was looking at all the driftwood. Build a horse.

• 1:13:55Speaker 01

  Don't worry, tonight. We're gonna get him.

• 1:13:59Matt McCusker?

  You win. That's, I was completely done. It got me. I can't deny it.

• 1:14:05Matt McCusker?

  That was like the fifth dimension level of the argument. I'm done.

• 1:14:07Speaker 01

  Five D chess. I had to give myself up. I had to admit, unfortunately, I am deep down in my core gay ass YouTube.

• 1:14:18Speaker 01

  But I wish I was Metallica.

• 1:14:20Matt McCusker?

  You're Metallica, bro.

  Yeah, true. Beezer's ride the lightning.

• 1:15:06Speaker 01

  Beezer might be it.

• 1:15:09Speaker 01

  That might be it. It actually might be him. Have we seen them together?

• 1:15:14Matt McCusker?

  I mean, Beezer put all the rumors, the raps.

• 1:15:16Speaker 01

  Yeah, dude, he swam.

  So what's Billy?

  Oh, comment?

  I'm right there with you.

  Chris, you are the most Metallica.

• 1:17:14Matt McCusker?

  That's true.

• 1:17:15Speaker 01

  You're a demon.

• 1:17:16Speaker 03

  Yeah. I want to run. Sunlight on my face, dude.

• 1:17:19Speaker 01

  What?

  You too, Larry.

• 1:17:22Speaker 01

  You sound like an actual demon.

• 1:17:25Matt McCusker?

  I want sunlight on my face.

• 1:17:27Speaker 01

  You're a demon. I'm actually gonna be scared to sleep here with you.

• 1:17:31Speaker 03

  That's crazy.

• 1:17:32Speaker 01

  You in this house spooks me out. God knows when you're breaking my. Tonight's the night.

• 1:17:41Speaker 01

  Nate's been begging us to eat.

• 1:17:42Matt McCusker?

  We never ate Nate.

• 1:17:43Speaker 01

  Oh, yeah, well. You were begging us to eat you.

• 1:17:47Matt McCusker?

  Pause.

• 1:17:48Speaker 01

  No, that was Nate. That's the king of the pause, dude.

• 1:17:52Speaker 01

  He kept like falling down the ocean and be like, oh, my God, are you guys gonna get me?

• 1:17:57Speaker 01

  What the fuck? Remember when you did that to me? Twice. You did that to me twice.

• 1:18:04Speaker 01

  Obviously, if you drown, we're in big, big trouble.

• 1:18:07Matt McCusker?

  We're in hot water.

• 1:18:10Matt McCusker?

  Nobody will believe us.

• 1:18:12Speaker 01

  No one's gonna believe us.

• 1:18:16Speaker 01

  But who knows what happened? Anyway.

• 1:18:20Speaker 01

  We're gonna find out.

• 1:18:23Matt McCusker?

  What you looking at, Bill?

• 1:18:24Speaker 01

  Metallica. Trying to find this video.

• 1:18:27Speaker 01

  Denying it's crazy. Yeah.

• 1:18:28Speaker 03

  No, I wish, I wish I was Metallica.

• 1:18:30Speaker 01

  Honestly, if we all voted, if you're Metallica or you two. What would you honestly say? You are Metallica. A hundred percent. What would you say about Chris? Metallica. Yeah. Now, what would you say about Billy? Metallica or you two?

• 1:18:44Speaker 03

  Well, he's very, he's been you two to me.

• 1:18:46Speaker 01

  Nice, soft guy.

• 1:18:47Speaker 03

  He's you two to me, but.

• 1:18:49Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:18:50Speaker 03

  There's a Metallica in there.

• 1:18:52Speaker 01

  No, but I don't think there's like a real evil boiling under the surface. I think it's, he tries to be a tough guy. He's got a rough outer shell because of the way he's raised. Totally. It's a bit of a crustacean.

• 1:19:05Speaker 01

  He's a lobster.

• 1:19:08Speaker 01

  Nothing underneath, soft underneath.

• 1:19:11Speaker 03

  See, this is just the kind of thing that brings a Metallica out. You're conjuring a Metallica.

• 1:19:16Speaker 01

  Love to see it. He's trying. I don't think he has it. Try some of the Metallica?

• 1:19:21Speaker 03

  This is a witch's brew.

• 1:19:25Speaker 01

  No, but Guard Dog's a freak. Guard Dog's a little Metallica.

• 1:19:27Speaker 03

  Yeah, Guard, Guard Dog is a Metallica.

• 1:19:29Speaker 01

  He's quiet. Then you give him a cup of fucking whiskey. He's like, what'd you say to me, cocksucker?

• 1:19:37Speaker 01

  You're Metallica, man. Nate's a sweet man.

• 1:19:42Speaker 01

  Unfortunately, we're you too, bro. There's nothing we can do.

• 1:19:45Matt McCusker?

  I'll see how you're you too. How are you not Metallica?

• 1:19:49Speaker 01

  I'm gay all the time.

• 1:19:51Matt McCusker?

  Dude, what are you talking about?

• 1:19:53Speaker 03

  Yeah, you got a Metallica in you.

• 1:19:56Speaker 01

  I need this. I don't think you've ever seen it.

• 1:19:59Speaker 03

  I've seen it.

• 1:20:02Speaker 03

  More than most.

• 1:20:03Matt McCusker?

  Thrive off of discord.

• 1:20:04Speaker 03

  I've been on the receiving.

• 1:20:05Matt McCusker?

  Thrive off of discord.

• 1:20:07Speaker 03

  I've been on the receiving end of a couple solos.

• 1:20:15Matt McCusker?

  Discord. How are you not Metallica?

• 1:20:19Speaker 01

  That's, that sounds like more Sabbath.

• 1:20:23Speaker 03

  The bells told for me a couple times.

• 1:20:31Matt McCusker?

  We should just say we're all Metallica. That's crazy.

• 1:20:33Speaker 01

  Obviously, we're all.

• 1:20:36Matt McCusker?

  Bill, you're Metallica.

• 1:20:37Speaker 01

  Change is trying to get someone to say he's Metallica.

• 1:20:39Matt McCusker?

  He's without, he is.

• 1:20:40Speaker 01

  That's you too.

• 1:20:43Matt McCusker?

  You're Metallica.

• 1:20:45Speaker 01

  I said, I said, you, me and Nate are you too. Yeah. I'm obviously Metallica.

• 1:20:52Speaker 01

  You're not at all. You're the ni-, you're one of the nicest guys I know. You're a sweetheart. Thanks. Yeah.

• 1:20:57Matt McCusker?

  It's not a bad thing. I'm striving.

• 1:21:00Speaker 01

  I need to kiss your stomach, like the album. Jeez.

• 1:21:04Speaker 01

  See, though, that's you too.

• 1:21:05Matt McCusker?

  That's you too.

• 1:21:06Speaker 01

  That's you too.

• 1:21:07Matt McCusker?

  I'm striving. My whole life should get to you too. I'm trying to get to you too.

  Swear on you too.

• 1:21:46Speaker 01

  There's a little kid on a bed singing that and then when the drums kick and he slaps his fucking chest. Because you're playing by the rules. We took it to the limit. We took it, today at the beach, we took it to the limit. Where's Beezer? Beezer will come down. You think you could summon him?

  We never, did they kick the dog in the movie?

• 1:24:31Speaker 01

  Yeah.

  Damn. We never, we never talked about Spotlight.

  Oh, you're talking about that movie. Yeah.

• 1:24:47Matt McCusker?

  Dude, that movie was so fucking bad.

• 1:24:49Speaker 01

  There's nothing more powerful than the stinking Catholics. They gotta stop raping kids. What the hell's going on? It was like, Irish Catholics, they're never gonna fucking turn on these pedophiles.

• 1:25:01Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

  Yeah, it was bad.

• 1:25:12Speaker 01

  Nothing stops a Catholic when they got something on their mind. The blowbowl city to stop it.

• 1:25:17Matt McCusker?

  Yeah.

• 1:25:18Speaker 01

  Solancia. Here's Boston. Yeah.

• 1:25:21Speaker 03

  Irish Boston behavior.

  It was crazy. The Boston.

• 1:25:24Matt McCusker?

  It was crazy. It's, yeah.

• 1:25:28Matt McCusker?

  I had to hype it up.

• 1:25:29Speaker 01

  We rewatched it on, I, I came in, I was, don't get me wrong, I had a couple cocktails down at the beach. Came in, the boys were snuggled up watching Spotlight on Tubi, which was the funniest version of watching a movie about pedophilia. That cuts every three seconds to commercials, AI casino commercials.

• 1:25:48Speaker 03

  Oh my god.

• 1:25:48Matt McCusker?

  It was bad, dude.

• 1:25:49Speaker 01

  In the middle of people being like, how many kids are you raping? It'd be like, are you ready to win money? Holy shit, dude.

• 1:25:57Matt McCusker?

  They have like offensive, they're like offensive commercials, dude.

• 1:26:00Speaker 01

  Yeah. Spears. They have one that would just make a hot cartoon. Shields. Make a hot cartoon lady and then it would just be the same commercial again with just two AI generated black guys and it'd be like, I just won a ton of money. He's like, man, you playing games on your phone? He was like, I won 900 bucks. Let's do it together. Somebody get the swords. I was upstairs fighting, shedding weapons down, dude. You were.

• 1:26:24Matt McCusker?

  I was howling. I was trying to stop it.

• 1:26:25Speaker 01

  No, I was upstairs. Shields. You were downstairs.

• 1:26:30Speaker 03

  Ruining the frame.

• 1:26:31Speaker 01

  I was upstairs.

• 1:26:32Speaker 03

  Frame, the frame's becoming a mess.

• 1:26:34Matt McCusker?

  What?

• 1:26:35Speaker 01

  We were savin' a conversation.

• 1:26:36Speaker 03

  He was pushing the table.

• 1:26:37Speaker 01

  He's kicking it. He's. I can't do anything right.

• 1:26:39Matt McCusker?

  Why are you kicking the table?

• 1:26:40Speaker 03

  Yeah, why are you pushing the table?

• 1:26:41Speaker 01

  Are you having a U2 spaz? I can't do anything right, I guess. I told you it was U2. I was trying to, I was just trying to spread out. Classic U2. I'm ruining the shot.

• 1:26:52Speaker 01

  See the Metallica boys jumped down your throat and beat you.

• 1:26:58Speaker 01

  I literally, if you could see, you can replay it. You can replay the shot. I go like this. Pushed your bag. First time I failed and it didn't go anywhere. I was like, god damn it, everyone saw that? Ew. Fucking shot.

• 1:27:13Speaker 01

  Some talking, some moving the table.

• 1:27:16Speaker 03

  Ruining Gardini's frame.

• 1:27:19Speaker 01

  It's been a beautiful trip. It's been such a beautiful trip. I actually had such a nice trip. That was awesome. But every day I wake up, look out, I mean, look out, you see the ocean. I waited. So funny to wake up and see the most beautiful thing in the world and be like,

• 1:27:36Speaker 01

  god damn it. I don't think I can do this again.

• 1:27:41Speaker 01

  Dude, I've been here for a week. I'm here for like five more days. Yeah.

• 1:27:45Matt McCusker?

  Dude, you got a haul in front of you.

• 1:27:47Speaker 01

  You guys gotta do something else. Everyone's leaving. Who's all leaving? Everyone, dude. I'm gonna be here by myself. Neighbor's saying you can eat pizza with them. I'm gonna hang out with the neighbors. Hello. Said it's like shit.

  Going full Metallica.

• 1:27:59Speaker 01

  Nasty. Nah, that'd be U2. That's ride the lightning. That's right. Fucked voice now. Obviously Mel Gibson. U2 and Metallica.

• 1:28:08Matt McCusker?

  Oh man, he's Metallica.

  Okay, Tom Hanks.

• 1:28:11Matt McCusker?

  U2. U2, for sure.

• 1:28:14Speaker 01

  You see where we're going. But you understand the concept of which one's fucking cooler.

• 1:28:22Matt McCusker?

  Cooler for sure. It is, I get that it's cooler.

• 1:28:25Speaker 01

  Yeah.

• 1:28:26Matt McCusker?

  But it's, it's, I just.

• 1:28:27Speaker 01

  I mean.

• 1:28:27Matt McCusker?

  It's not for me. That's all.

• 1:28:29Speaker 01

  Hats backwards.

• 1:28:32Speaker 01

  Could be edge though.

• 1:28:35Matt McCusker?

  I'll take edge.

• 1:28:35Speaker 03

  If you didn't have a brim on it, the edge. Yeah.

• 1:28:38Matt McCusker?

  Odd hat.

• 1:28:40Speaker 03

  If you cut the brim off, you're full edge.

• 1:28:41Matt McCusker?

  It just happens. I'm a backwards hat guy now. Not all the time. 50/50. Sometimes I just go, I gotta flip this backwards.

• 1:28:50Matt McCusker?

  And we're about to talk too. I don't want to be in my face.

• 1:28:52Speaker 01

  I hear it.

• 1:28:53Matt McCusker?

  You know?

• 1:28:55Speaker 01

  You're gonna mess up Gardini's shot.

• 1:28:56Matt McCusker?

  Not at all. I'd never want to do it.

• 1:29:00Speaker 01

  Is that funny to them?

• 1:29:03Speaker 01

  They're laughing.

• 1:29:04Matt McCusker?
