Baple straight from the source, cold as ice, and a perfectly chilled glass that that you get to take home. We live in St. Louis about twenty five minutes away from Bush headquarters where you can tour and try their best beer along the different stages of the production process. We have no shortage of Baple here. The peach is also good, but only if it's pretty cold in my opinion. If you guys if you guys are ever in the area, it's a great experience. That being said, who do you think are gonna win the World Cup? We have plenty of answers for ya. Do you do you big heads and little heads agree? I'm just curious who she thinks is the big head and which one's the little head. Yeah, well ⁓ is it because like my big head, my little head? Hey, that's a deep that's a deep cut. That's a deep cut. Thank you, Kylie. Yeah, yeah. And then or do they think or no, sorry, or do they have conflicting thoughts on who's gonna win? So we'll consult both Big Head and Littlehead in just a second. That's so funny, dude. Also, can someone tell me what's up with the pink cleats? Seems like almost all the players have bright pink Nikes or Adidas. And also speaker-1: Ha ha speaker-0: Who do you think has the coolest jersey in the World Cup? My vote is for Korea for the best jerseys. With love, Kylie. Alright, we definitely have a lot to unpack here. Kylie, you are beautiful. Thank you so much. Dude, Kylie might run away with ⁓ actually at the end of the year, we're gonna have ⁓ listener of the year. We're gonna have an award system. I think Kylie's running away with it at this point. It's it's it's a loose concept. We're working on the finer details, but we're gonna have an award system in place. Yeah. We got a twenty five dollar gift card to Starbucks with your name on it. That's what I said, that's what I said. Anyway, so Alright Baple out of the source. I have you know, Kylie. I'm drinking Baple right now. Cold, cold bapble. Shut out the fridge and ⁓ I wouldn't want anything more than drink it out of the source. I've heard it about the bushlight peach that's gonna be my next conquest. But for the time being, you can call me a little boy in the orchard 'cause I'm picking these apples. Jesus Christ. And as Bappel of Day keeps the doctors away. Baple of day keeps the doctors away. Alright, so we'll just have a drink and just babble with ⁓ give a give a little mm. speaker-1: Okay. I said he can pick my peach any time he wants. speaker-0: So crisp. So crisp. Alright.

It's ⁓ it's it's gotta be I don't think it's no I know what I speaker-0: Let's not have a I think him with your dick. Yeah. You know you like Kevin Gates. You think you're you're thinking with your dick about France? speaker-1: No, Spain. speaker-0: Your dick is saying Spain but your brain is saying Argentina it's the other way around. Because you're not you don't think clearly with your dick, is what the concept is. speaker-1: No. Yeah, I'm thinking clearly with my head because I know Argentina's gonna win. Fuck you guys. speaker-0: So this guy's arrogant. This guy's arrogant. Interesting. I've never been arrogant with the big head? With the little head. No. How d no, he's reversing it. He's got the concept. Man, he got me fucked up. What the fuck? Hold up. So like normally he's got a heart on for speaking. Hey, speaking from experience, and you guys know my experience, my little head has arrogant as fuck. Alright? And I made some questions about choices. Because I'm arrogant. With the little head. With the little head. My big head was telling the little head to knock it the fuck off. I think you got it twisted, Riley. Nope. speaker-1: You got it right. speaker-0: No, your brain says Spain, your dick says Argentina. So you wanna give your brain to Argina, but you wanna give your dick to Spain? That's what I'm saying. I guess speaker-1: I don't know, dude. How would I speaker-0: I'm telling you guys I'm not trying to tell I'm not trying to have you backtrack, I just wanna make sure speaker-1: ⁓ I'm just saying I really think Argentina's gonna win. speaker-0: So that's your dick. speaker-1: And my dick's a little timid right now, but speaker-0: No, your brain is telling because you're thinking of your brain is trying to tell you to be cautious. Because when you don't think, who's gonna win? Don't think. Alright, that's your dick. Now think about it. Who do you think is gonna win? No. Or or Mexico. He's the three. Hey, wait. ⁓ I'm delighted. ⁓ speaker-1: Yeah. I'm being delusional right now. I'm being delusional. I'm sorry. I'm just being delusional. I want I don't know. I was trying to I was trying to be clever and say I'm in Tina with my big brain. I think I I was I am thinking with my big brain, but speaker-0: No, but if you're being clever it's with your brain. When you're not being clever it's with your dick. You can't say that you're clever speaker-1: That's speaker-0: And then you're cle and then you're not clever in that your dick is Am I making sense? I just wanna go on record to say we've been talking for eight minutes about how to how to think with the big dick and the little head. Or the little d really this dude's nothing influence. I thought the little head with the big head and the little dick Hold on, not you don't have a little dick. I don't think you have a little dick. But wait a minute. Little head. Fuck so little head, big head. Yes, little head, big head. Fucking shit. No, Bradley's just got the concept twisted, we had to educate him on it. No. speaker-1: Well if no. speaker-0: I know what you guys are saying. No, okay, what he's trying to tell us is that he is logically thinking that Argentina's gonna win. speaker-1: Yes. And I feel like my little head is illogical, so that's why I'm saying Spain and speaker-0: That's that's how confident words, dude. That's how confident he is. Kinda. Cause his shit is shriveling up at the thought of Spain. That's weird. I think he's got a That's weird. I think he's got a big head is saying Argentina. Yeah. That sounds like it's hard. His tennis. His tenis. Tiny penis. Tiny penis. Tenis is saying Spain. Patent penning. Not that y No, ⁓ sorry, I got it from. speaker-1: Spain could take it. Or should I say balls? Or should I say my balls are saying Argentina? speaker-0: Damn it. No. No No When you think about it, it's Spain. So that's your big head. Yeah. Alright, fuck okay, we we got this all fucked up. Final answer. No, no, he did not get this fucked up. He got it fucked up. Okay. speaker-1: Okay. Alright. No I don't got it fucked up. speaker-0: ⁓ No, let him have his final answer. Your final answer, don't forget everything that's true. speaker-1: Fine. You can go that way, but Overall, Argentina gonna win the World Cup. That's what I think. speaker-0: Spoke it like a two driven. Okay, now I'll slide. ⁓ my god. So my big head Mexico. ⁓ shit. My low head. ⁓ shit. El three. Fuck everybody else. A huevo, wey. A huevo, wey, viva Mexico. Vija Mexico cabrones. Si se puede. Si se puede. Si se puede. Si se puede. Easy si. Easy si. Easy si. Porque no. Am I gonna say this right? Those me pelan la verga, we'll mexicanos. But lo demás me pelan la verga, wey. Alright, we're off a little off the rails a little bit, so we apologize. Actually, we don't apologize. No, but we're unapologetic. My little my big head says Mexico, my little head says Mexico. I don't got no educated decisions by any this shit. Does that make sense? And that's what we love about you. Who do you got? Big head, little head. Big head? speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: Mehiko way. Big head? Little head. Biva meh. Hey man, we're in it to win it, big dog. So mexicano. This is it. So mexicano we. Hey, so Mexico Americano, brother. That's here we are. Here we are, bro. Lives of Risk Carnal. That's what it is. If Mehiko wins, I'm watching Blood in Blood out at work. speaker-1: So ⁓ yeah. speaker-0: ⁓ So hey man, we ⁓ have a World Cup, why are you mad? You've seen your team, you win a World Cup! You think we ever he we you think we have stuff? There's always gonna be an asterisk next to your World Cup, so fuck it. No no no no no, they won it, fair and square. I think I broke another pen though. ⁓ what was Kylie's next question? For anybody keeping for anybody keeping keeping track at home, that's ⁓ Aslan's third broken pen today. So second. Kylie, thank you for leaving a vo ⁓ email. That was the first question. So that was the first question after about fifteen minutes. Here we are. The second question. She did specifically ask us about the big heads and little heads. So I guess she well she's Kylie. She specifically asked her chin up, I don't Do your big heads and little heads agree? Do our big heads or little heads agree? I think we kinda covered that. Well, I mean there's a little ambiguity I think we understand it differently, but Riley lives life differently. But that's why I need Riley in my life because he lives it differently than me, and me plus Riley equals happin happiness for eternity. speaker-1: I think so too. Yeah. I know ⁓ I Okay, there you go. speaker-0: Victory. That was probably right there. Yeah, here we are. So next question. Can someone tell us or tell her about the pink cleats? Nike Anaditas. So I have my thoughts. You have your your explanation. Because I know the least. Yeah. speaker-1: How speaker-0: Okay, in reality I think it keeps their he their their feet less hot because it absorbs less heat. Right? I think in reality that's what it means. In my ⁓ distorted reality, soccer players love boobs, it's offer ⁓ breast cancer awareness. Breast cancer awareness. We do love some bids and some biddies. Squeeze a titty get early. speaker-1: How do you Tinnies and grids. Ties greeties. speaker-0: Titties and Great Reviewity. Tacos. Titties and tacos. No, I think in all reality the pink cleats are swaggy. They're probably getting paid a shit ton of money to wear the pink cleats because like in South America they had those I forgot the ones that Ronaldo was wearing, they were fucking fire. In South Africa. The hyperventiles or some shit. speaker-1: No, I fucking It was the McCurials. speaker-0: Gear yeah, those were fucking fire. It's just the staple of the World Cup. Also I think Darker Cleats makes feet hot because they're running up and down. So, Riley, why what what do you think about the P Cleats? speaker-1: It's just another flashy fucking design. I I I never make Pumas No idea wheels. I wore Pumas or Adidas. speaker-0: You didn't have no mercury. You're Mercury's are so fire though, dude. Bro, when they had the indoor Kids were wearing those in like ⁓ at middle school, like casually. Right. Indoor Mercurials. Yeah, with fire too. Yeah, yeah. Also broken. speaker-1: I didn't have the T nineties growing up though. speaker-0: Did you have the teen nineties? I did. No shit. Yeah the classic Those are classic. speaker-1: I did have the actually now that I think about it I did have some Nikes. So Yeah, I had both the OG yellow Nikes with the metal studs and then I got the other later on T nineties where they had like the weird rubber design on the front like on the front end of your at the ball of your foot and then it they were baby blue, white and black. speaker-0: Okay. Anyway, so final answer was because as you think it's just a tr a trend. speaker-1: Argentina colors. It's just a trend, it's flashy. That's that's all it is. I I worked at a soccer shop for a while and all the kids always wanted the the flashy, like orange bright orange, fluorescent yellow. This one gives you bright pink makes you feel speaker-0: Creativity over your fit. I mean I work at at ⁓ work speaker-1: People want your eyes ⁓ on you. speaker-0: So when I'm at work and I can wear sneakers, I'm busting out the the the shattered backboards, you know, like Yeah. So Yeah and yet and you and y and you get a lot of compliments when you rock them on the team. That being said. ⁓ My thoughts on the pink cleats are probably gonna be the same. It's gonna be a blend of both y'all. Yeah, they're trendy. But yes, pink tend to reflect heat a lot better, especially in the summer g summer days that we're we're experiencing here in the north in ⁓ North America. Doesn't make a huge difference. I'll I'll let the players be the judge, but otherwise, yeah. I mean they're they're cool, ⁓ they're nice to look at. I'm not I'm not gonna refute that. Yeah. But now you got half the team wearing pink cleats, and it's like, well now I kinda wanna wear something else. Yeah. So speaker-1: Yeah, I I didn't like wearing I mean I wore I think I had to borrow some pink beats back in the day but I I fucking hated wearing them. They were distracting. speaker-0: What was the next question? ⁓ what what what kits were the best? Yeah, that was the last question from our beloved Kylie. ⁓ who do you think ha has the coolest jersey in the World Cup? Her vote was for Korea. I'll let you guys start. Riley, I'll have you start with this one. Best kit in the entire World Cup. speaker-1: Best kit. I gotta think about this one because there there are a lot of really cool kits and Kylie's not wrong. South Korea pulled out a gray kit with that that purple. Yeah. I really like it looking at it. speaker-0: That was that was fire. Bad. speaker-1: Yeah, I mean Is it i it's gonna be biased to me, but I have to say on Indina, like the traditional baby blue stripes speaker-0: Yeah. I actually like I personally like the alternate better. speaker-1: You like the alternate better? Yeah. speaker-0: It's cleaner. I'll I'll credit what credit is due. speaker-1: I don't think Tina has good uniforms. They always come out with good unis. I mean the last World Cup they had those the purple kit which was freaking fuck right. Sure. So Sure. That is mine. That is mine. speaker-0: Is that your final answer? Yeah, fair enough. What about you buddy? I'd give it to Alemania. I think they Germany. I yeah, I think they got some nice jerseys. You're giving Germany the best kits. I think they got some nice jerseys. If not them Netherlands. speaker-1: Just orange? Like they always do. speaker-0: That's culture. Or then that's fine. He fucking chose Argentina. ⁓ Mexico all the way, ⁓ but ⁓ speaker-1: I mean the USA kit is I gotta say the the red and white stripes. Who? The kit USA. No. No dude, I gotta make well away. speaker-0: It's too close to Chivas, fucking ⁓ yes, I'm you know, surprise, surprise, but yeah I'm gonna have to go at feed them. speaker-1: No, Columbia, sorry, Columbia had the green kids. Columbia, yeah. speaker-0: Colombia's okay. Yeah right. speaker-1: Not the y their yellow jerseys? Yeah, both yeah. I like their their alternative kits that they wore in the first game. It was like dark speaker-0: Yeah, those are nice. Yeah, for sure. Good call. Good call out. Yeah yeah. Yeah yeah. They're okay. I might say really speaker-1: Yeah. They're okay. We're fine. speaker-0: They're fine. I'm not gonna lie. I think L3 is probably top top down alternative home away. Probably those black those black jerseys are are fire, bro. Probably the best kits like football has ever ever seen. Ever. And they probably taken that title from like World Cup winners nineteen forty. Cheaters. You know? Alternates. I don't know, it's kinda like the Yankees. Pinstripes for I don't know how many fucking years, but it's the same shit every year, right? Yeah. Hey man, the Cubs were the pinstripes. Yeah, but the Cubs of Chicago. Yeah, you're right. Chicago's not as annoying as New York City. But you say they're annoying though? Chicago is not annoying. Semicolon, like New York City. Nice. Semi dash. speaker-1: People like speaker-0: Like Argentina. With their stripes. They depend on that baby blue like a motherfucker. speaker-1: You think you think this doesn't look great? You you think that little accent around the light blue is speaker-0: Because of what that shit's done to me, I could never say that. I'd rather fucking die as a prisoner of war than fucking admit that that dress looks I ain't trying to go to Guantanamo, bro. Cool. What else does Karen want to talk about? That was the last question for you. Okay, cool. ⁓ speaker-1: Panini, just take your s speaker-0: Kylie, you're phenomenal. Thank you so much. Please keep the questions coming.

Alright, in all seriousness, here's one feet. I want to talk about this shit. Shout out Josh Hard. Guillermo Ochoa has reportedly been denied FIFA's special special legacy patch despite being selected for six World Cups with Mexico. According to FIFA's criteria. Only tournaments in which a player actually stepped onto the pitch count as official World Cup appearances. Since Ochoa didn't play in two thousand six and ten, those editions are not recognized toward the milestone. If Ochoa features at the twenty seven twenty six World Cup, the Mexican Football Federation is expected to push FIFA to review the situation. How the fuck do we feel about that? Memo Ochoa Noman's way. That's a great that's a great plug. I have my thoughts. He's not just a Nagila. I'm I'm about to blow up the Los Americans. But I want Riley to say his piece real fast. What's your thoughts? speaker-1: It's bullshit. He should be giving the patch. Like why are you not giving this guy a patch that has been in the fucking World Cup and has created history for Mexico his entire fucking career. Like, it makes no sense why FIFA has this fucking rule. speaker-0: Creature. That's in that's insane. Like how are you speaker-1: Beef has fucked up so many other things in current World Cups that why are you not giving a fucking patch to a fucking legend? speaker-0: Twenty-four years, bro? Twenty-four years he's even around the World Cup? How do you not give a pass to that motherfucker? It's insane. It's insane. If you make if you're if your ass steps foot on the pitch during a World Cup game, you're there. In my mind, it doesn't matter. He's on the roster. He has the opportunity to step on the pitch and he made appearances. speaker-1: Yeah. I agree. I agree. He made appearances. speaker-0: If it's two minutes, one minute, I don't give a fuck. She played a meaningful minute of of it like like legit time for a World Cup speaker-1: Games if he didn't regardless if he didn't, he should still be given. Regardless, O Ochoa should have a patch. Bottom line speaker-0: Yeah, right, Memo Chuan needs a pass for a leg a legends pass because this is a sixth World Cup. No one's gonna change my mind. His twenty fourteen performance alone is going down in history. No, bro. You can't be a fucking bench warmer for six. speaker-1: How many ⁓ FIFA isn't giving them the opportunity for being involved in that, but for this for this new 2026 World Cup, I want to plug in that an Italian, Alessandro Alessandro Del Piero, is the reason FIFA changed the national anthem protocols for the World Cup. Where you're including bench players to be part of that national anthem anthem on the pit. So he gave that opportunity for him to actually be involved because speaker-0: That's that that was a nice contribution. speaker-1: Because like if you're saying if you're saying that now we're contributing to bench players being part of like the national anthem, like they're part of the team, then why the fuck O'Cho isn't? speaker-0: Exactly. That's actually a very sound argument and you're clearly the more irrational run out of the three of us right now. So thank you. Yeah. And what's the common denominator? No one. Not halfway through a bottle of t three fourths of a bottle of tequila. But that being said, salute. Salute Ochoa. speaker-1: ⁓ yeah. Sua. speaker-0: El señor Cardenas. Cárdenas. Cárdenas. Yes sir. My bad. All good. All good, all good. speaker-1: What else? What else is next here? What else is next here? speaker-0: Three or four topics, bro. No, we got another segment. We got another segment. Yeah. Let's get it out of the way. Okay. So this is Spanish words with the boingyman. So, if you guys are just tuning in, this is ⁓ another segment that we're introducing to our podcast. More than anything, as you guys probably already figured out, we give our boy Riley a lot of hard a lot of flack for lack of español. But speaker-1: Like a respect. speaker-0: My boy is working on it, he's practicing, and he's doing so good. So we're gonna challenge his ass to say some pretty hard to say words all together. So we got a couple things, or not not a couple, five words that we have picked out. See how he does. All I'm gonna do, he hasn't seen them yet. What I want him to do is actually do his best pronunciation work right now. He has the basics, he knows what he's doing, I have all the faith in the world. First ones first Riley the Boying Man Bobby Fresh What is that word say? speaker-2: say. speaker-1: This roll. speaker-0: Just try it again. speaker-1: Desarrolla. ⁓ Desarora. speaker-0: I'm gonna pause I'm gonna pause you right there. That's O for three. So remember re what remember what does the double L sound sound like? Yeah. Yeah Yeah. So try to get speaker-1: That's ⁓ role real. Almost. Okay. speaker-0: Yeah, that okay four first and foremost. speaker-1: Desay Des a Royal. Deser Roller? Desarrollar! Desa Roller! speaker-0: You're getting a little tiny with it, but I'll bring it up. Sound that you're from Maracatina from under Say this. ⁓ speaker-1: Descer, meu ⁓ Deus. Justification. Wait, hold on, let me see it. speaker-0: Nope. What is what does the J sound make in Spanish? No. What the fu are you fucking German? What the fuck? No. Hey, use the A. Use the A? Use the Boston. Use the night. Squash nice enough. Use Vacason. Use use Vacaj's nine. Say say it right, motherfucker. ⁓ speaker-1: You still Justificación. speaker-0: That was too easy. That was the bonus word. That was the bonus word. Justificacion. Justificacion. We got four more words to go, people. Alright, so this next one here. This is the f this is the set the third word. That second word was a bonus. But speaker-1: Farmacia speaker-0: Pharmacia. On the first go. I'm proud of you boy. All right. All right. Here here here here's a little curve, Baldur. Chica déjame llevarte a la farmacia. Let's see what you got. ⁓ speaker-1: Desafiou. speaker-0: This up bro, he's on the roll, my boy! Is that Kentinaway? Let's go. Well, not all that, but yeah. Chill. Alright. So that I can see this this one might fuck my fuck you up a little bit. Lock in. Lock in. speaker-1: Yeah, yeah. Okay. Arro yadora. Arroyadora? speaker-0: Try to try it again, don't sound white. ⁓ speaker-1: Ароа Ядора. speaker-0: Damn, you say like I'm an Italian ⁓ I'ma give you one more chance before I fucking correct you. What the f up with that? You're not a you're not Italian, but more emphasis on the shit. speaker-1: Yeah, no. Okay. Aro ya Dora. Okay. Aro ya Dora. speaker-0: You're you're causing for no reason. Let's go! Ready? Okay. ⁓ ⁓ no, you had it. We was right there. You was right there, buddy. DC Mulah. DC Mulah. Let's go. Man, this guy's a pro. He's flu in his shit. Let's go. Alright. Alright. We have some more topics lined up for you guys. Riley? Let us have it. speaker-1: Yeah dude. It all started ⁓ last week where Maurice Du Mo used to play for the international team for the US. ⁓ he's a broadcaster now was roasted ⁓ during the Sweden and Tunisian game. Okay. So when they were in the match for the broadcast, there is They were talking about the throw ins, how they have sped up time, where the referee blows the whistle. speaker-0: Yeah. speaker-1: And now he's counting the five. So it if they don't count to five, or once he counts the five, they haven't thrown it in yet, it's given to the other team. So now they have sped things up with the match, which I really enjoy because I feel like people have wasted so much time throwing the ball, doing set pieces. It's just it ruins the game. It ruins the momentum of the game. Yeah. I mean it's the same with the water breaks, whatever you guys want to talk about. ⁓ but we can get into that another time. speaker-0: Yeah. speaker-1: But he's being roasted because he's an Arsenal fan and Arsenal's known to fucking waste time, do all this bullshit, hand it off the ball. So hopefully that can be done within the EPL later on. speaker-0: Yeah. speaker-1: I think that's I think it was funny because the broadcaster is like, Hey, you're not you are you happy about this for being an Arsenal fan? And started cracking up. So I mean I love the debauchery with w between the two broadcasters and so it's it's really bringing the game together too. ⁓ I think. And then I also wanted to talk about your guys' interest with Jameis Swinston and like being included with the Japan ⁓ international teams when they play their first game, cleaning up the ⁓ stands with the Japanese supporters. Like he he was there, he's in full support with every single like team it seems like. He was there for the Argentina game, witness Messi scoring his hat trick. ⁓ he was delightful, super energetic, loved the fans. he's also been I mean he he's gone at the US game. He's he's been all over the place for the for the World Cup, which is iconic. And we're just really Jameis Wilson has been there overall and is living his best life I think. What do you guys think about Jameis? Or what have you guys seen about Jameis? speaker-0: Yeah. At one point or another, alright, all three of us, stop me if I'm wrong. Whether it be at recess, whether it be in the neighborhood, with with with our neighbors, all the kids around, we playing ball with football, and it's fucking either pouring, it's pissing rain or it's snowing. Porn? ⁓ pouring. J Jameis Winston is a fucking gift to the sports world. After he's done playing, whatever whatever broadcasting station picks him up, I'm gonna I'm tuning in. I'm tuning in because I I wanna I wanna get all these ad libs, excerpts, we can bring whate whatever random ass thoughts Jameis has, I'm in there. He humanizes the game. He humanizes the game, which is what you were trying to bring up. Him picking up trash with the Japan team, right? speaker-1: Yeah. With Japan supporters, yeah. speaker-0: Exactly. A and and also just to to make make like to tie this back in, the NBA player you're thinking was in in recent memory was V J Edcombe. He ⁓ he he's a rookie for the Phil Philadelphia seventy sixers who sh probably he made an argument to be rookie of the year this year. He he he played really well. Yeah. Yeah. It's the same shit though, with like when Giannis first came in the league and he was like surprised about the over expenditures ⁓ like the team was making for players, right? Like Giannis was flabbergasted about the fucking liberties he was given. Yep. Given that he probably couldn't afford a fucking pair of shoes in Greece. ⁓ speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: No. Also his next signature his this his next signature shoe, fire. I'm a cop I'm I I'm I'm a cop a pair, no lie. I saw them the snake. Yep. Yeah, yeah, I'm a pair. I want that Nike logo backwards though, so I'm not I I want a pair. That that that should look fire, I don't give fuck. Either way though, speaker-1: Great human being. speaker-0: Great human being. Great human being. Shit that we want to see. Shit that we want to see. Yeah, exactly. One hundred percent. speaker-1: All over like everywhere. speaker-0: A hundred percent. Whether whether it be sports, whether it be in our fucking government, whether it be like our our neighbors. That's the type of shit we live for. Yeah. That feel good shit. Yeah, exactly. A hundred percent. What else you got, Riley? speaker-1: I got the the Scots, the Tartan and the Tart Tartan Army singing at Fe f or Fenway Park and just giving that cool, unique energy that no one sees in the US, which is really good for the US because it brings everybody. speaker-0: I don't think that's Scottish stuff. ⁓ well I will say that my sister in law went to go watch a game over at ⁓ to watch a manager's game. And Scots, right? Scots were in Seattle? Yeah. We're trying to talk to her, but she was sick. So she couldn't like talk. So the Scots were trying to talk to her. But honestly speaker-1: Disney? speaker-0: We should have figured out some shit and chugger to watch gaming for the World Cup. Even if it was fucking Haiti versus fucking Ivory Coast. True. You make some good points. That's neither here nor there. We weren't expecting to do the podcast before this World Cup. But ne maybe next World Cup will fly out. Yeah. Yeah. speaker-1: Yeah. Dual live live peace. I think I mean it's they were th singing Yes Sir I Can Boogie by Bacata and I'm gonna be five hundred miles by pro the by the pro proclaimers. Yeah I think them singing along and then when the song was over they were still singing which is beautiful. speaker-0: Anyways, with all that Wait, the the proclaimers are Scottish? speaker-1: They were just singing t a along with the song. speaker-0: ⁓ word. Wait a minute. I'm pretty sure they're not Scottish. speaker-1: No, they they were having a good vibe. And then you guys wanna talk about Zlatan and Alexe? There's been some back and forth between Zlatan and ⁓ Alexei Lawless. It's pretty funny. speaker-0: You fucking broke me, asshole. That's what I do. God damn! speaker-1: ⁓ So Zlatan and Alexei getting into heated arguments. ⁓ Alexi call ⁓ calling him out and saying Erling Holland is gonna beat you or like beat sorry. ⁓ I've heard better career and is already having a better career than him. But Zlatan has said Zlatan has said that he's one dimensional speaker-0: Have a better speaker-1: ⁓ he he i ⁓ he acknowledges his greatness, Erling Holl Holland's greatness, but he he is saying that Holland is one dimensional and only plays in speaker-0: I don't think Zlatan's career has been that great. Whoa. That's ⁓ to your credit, yes, Zlatan's did they basically say he's not there yet. Fast forward to the end of the game, the first game for Norway, he changed his tune and Zlatan was like, actually, I think he's already there. Kind of deal, because he scored two World Cup games. Or two. speaker-1: That's it for ⁓ speaker-0: So how the fuck did a professional athlete change his opinion on one game? You know why? You know why it happened? It's c it's called respect? No, because that's athlete was a dumb fuck and didn't pay attention before. No, you y y you're not paying attention before because in all the appearances that Latan had had made in the World Cup, he hadn't scored. He was literally waiting for 'cause he's mid. Can can you shut the fuck up for a second? Okay, yeah. He was literally waiting for for for Erling to actually score a game in the World Cup and then we can entertain the thoughts. But not only did Erlen Haaland score in the World Cup, it's how he scored in the World Cup. And that is what won over praise from Zlatan. So Zlatan admits that Erlen Haaland is the real deal after that first World Cup. No, but he's the all time one one of the all time leading scorers in Sweden history and in the Premier League and the MLS and Louis Estat and the Spanish Louise LeBron. No, whoa. He's a stat pat. Whoa, whoa. He's a stat pat. You're about to catch Because he doesn't fucking he doesn't score when it matters. He does score when it matters, that's my point. Apparently not. If you can't score in the fucking World Cup, then it doesn't matter. speaker-1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I would also like to add it's a remark that L Alexi Lawless has said You haven't too much to keel it up. speaker-0: Thank you. He kept asking for some, bro. Don't put this on me. He's a grown ass man. What the fuck are you talking about? Yeah, I needed one more too. By the way. Fuck off. By the way. So by the time we're done by now. speaker-1: Don't get it. Wallace later called Francis play irrogate during their match against Senegal. What's speaker-0: Say one one more time, run it back. speaker-1: I have to repeat? Okay. Yeah. So Alexey Lales, one of the broadcasters who's played for the UN speaker-0: Hold on, pause. Does he who does he know who Alexi Lawless is? No, but you guys were talking hella shit about him. Do you have any idea who he is? speaker-1: Now he does. No. Do you have any so there is a game ⁓ against France and Senegal where Alex Alexi Lawless called their play arrogant. ⁓ where Zlatan firing back, it's not arrogance, it's confidence. Ignorant people will say it's arrogance, calling Lexi Lawless ignorant. So which I a hundred percent agree with speaker-0: Yeah. This is some shit after they excommunicated Lalas, right? speaker-1: No, Lollis just was gone for the US game. speaker-0: ⁓ yeah. I thought you guys were saying he said some shit about Lalas being away or some sh he wasn't present in the broadcast. speaker-1: Well no He wasn't present in that specific broadcast at the time because the US were playing at that time. speaker-0: Yeah. speaker-1: So because they had a bunch of US players be in a separate bo broadcast with like Clint Dempsey, Mo, ⁓ etcetera So Tiara Henri, Zlatan and I forget the lady's name, but they were in a broadcast and saying that Alexi Las is gone, and then Zlatan said, You're welcome, America. speaker-0: Yeah. speaker-1: Yeah. So that was a funny bit, ⁓ from from Zlatan. I I've gotten to grow in like his arrogance. ⁓ Rebecca Lowe, sorry, thank you. So Rebecca Lowe is the other ⁓ host for Fox. I do wanna move forward I do wanna move forward Blue the Fox. Blue to Fox. speaker-0: His Boot of Fox now Buddha Fox, Buddha Fox. Alexei Lalas is the worst thing that could ever fucking happen to US football. Yeah. Because he is talking out of his ass. He does not know what the fuck he's talking about. He's not relevant. No, he hasn't played any meaningful soccer for anybody. What has he done and what does he do? He is a broadcaster. He he represented the US in the nineteen ninety four World Cup. Fox is a fucking MAGA leaning fucking corporation and that motherfucker is MAGA. That's where we're at. Hasn't played a single minute of meaningful football at all. Fuck this motherfucker. speaker-1: That's a good way put it. No. He he hasn't. He hasn't. I mean he's played he's played in Padova in Italy, but then went from Lone and then af like from nineteen ninety-four to nineteen ninety-six for two fucking seasons. And then played MLS his entire fucking career. speaker-0: The only reason he's fucking still relevant is because he says some outlandish shit that is gonna get clicks and that's literally why the motherfucker gets like is still being talked about right now while we're talking about him. speaker-1: Yeah. He's just praised about MLS. That's why Fox Sports chose to have one American sponsor to him. speaker-0: Do you have anything else you wanna talk about, R? speaker-1: If you guys want to talk about me giving the Deer Fox Sports speaker-0: Sent a message to a Los Constents. shit. Over at ⁓ over at Fox. And so Riley's gonna read that out loud. Riley, read it out loud. speaker-1: ⁓ no. Okay, this is to Fox Sports about Alexei Lawless. This is what I wrote, this is what I want, two shand. Okay. Dear Fox Sports, you have a punk ass bitch at the helm of your soccer broadcast. He's incompetent. He's an incompetent hoe. speaker-0: An incompetent hoe I'm gonna ⁓ speaker-1: An incompetent hoe He's an incompetent hoe He doesn't know football. Doesn't mean that his political views align with Fox, in quotes, doesn't mean he knows anything about the fucking game. He played for fucking MLS, didn't do fucking shit. Just because he played soccer in the sorry and quotes played soccer in the US and parents paid for his talent, in quotes. speaker-0: Cool. speaker-1: Whatever he had doesn't mean shit to anyone. The majority of football fans can all agree that we should or that we would, like someone else who doesn't have a nonsensical attitude, every time he's on fucking screen Yours truly every fucking buddy. speaker-0: Every fucking buddy. Not with the pop, but I will say dude, Alexei Lawless, dude, honestly, you're ridiculous. Stop fucking talking. Go do something else. Go fucking take up crocheting or gardening or something. You he's fucking What? Mm-hmm. He makes music? ⁓ play it. Play it right now. Play it right now. I need to hear that. Yeah, play it. I'm not fucking with my algorithm. Go ahead. Play for play like 10 seconds. speaker-1: Makes shitty ass music, dude. Can we play? Peter S. speaker-0: He makes ⁓ music? speaker-1: Yeah. Sing? No. That's the thing. He can't fucking sing. He has a he has a thing called kicking balls. What? Yeah. Kicking kicking balls. speaker-0: Wait, like his song Kylie skip it till like half the way and play it for five seconds. I'm so mad right now. I'm so mad right now. speaker-1: Okay. It's half the way. speaker-0: We gotta only play for five seconds and give her judgment. Okay. Stop it. That sounds like every other British shit that plays, bro, to be honest. Except he's Except he's American. Yeah, yeah, yeah. speaker-1: So just honestly better. That he sounds like ass. speaker-0: That being said, anything else that we gonna wrap up on this second episode of this June ⁓ twenty first episode of Pickup's podcast? speaker-1: Yeah, I got I got one thing. Just because it's very recent. ⁓ rest in peace, Alden Smith. Rest in peace, Oliver Tree. I know we don't know him pretty well. I mean Alden Smith played for the Forty Nine. speaker-0: We don't we we don't know them on a personal level but the imp the the impact that they left. Alden Smith was a generational player for me. When we were facing any other team, I knew if Alden Smith was in the mix that we'd be able to fuck it up. Rest in peace, Alden Smith. Rest in peace, Oliver Tree.
