We start off with a new story about CrotchGate, a US coach says it's completely false! Then there's a Norwegian biathlete that decided to confess his sins on national tv, and a dipshit congressman wants hearings over Bad Bunny.

It is time to leave your worries outside and life

4
00:00:13.839 --> 00:00:17.480
with us inside the Treehouse. I'm Daniel Malley along with

5
00:00:17.519 --> 00:00:25.079
Trey Trendholm and Raj Sharman. Believe it was just a

6
00:00:25.079 --> 00:00:30.359
couple of days ago we discussed about the men's Olympic

7
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:36.600
ski jumpers and the possibility of them injecting their wieners

8
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:43.439
to fly farther during competition. Well, now that that story

9
00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:46.759
is wrapped around the earth three or four times with

10
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:52.640
some left over, now they're starting to poke some holes

11
00:00:52.640 --> 00:01:03.719
into this situation. Olympian CAC person says crotchgate is utter ridiculousness.

12
00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:09.799
Two time Olympic athlete Casey Larson really wishes we'd all

13
00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:14.519
just forget about this. He's now a ski jumping coach

14
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:24.480
and he spoke with News Nation and he's not loving it.

15
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:29.599
He says, this is complete and utter ridiculousness. I, as

16
00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:33.359
a plugged in athlete for a very long time, have

17
00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:37.280
heard nothing about this. No, it's not happening. Well, that's

18
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:40.079
exactly what you say if you just finished pumping up

19
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:42.719
your wiener in a tent to get more drag on

20
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:46.959
a suit so you could fly farther in the Olympics.

21
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:58.200
He does go on to also say he did, however,

22
00:01:58.239 --> 00:02:01.000
speak of some of the controversy in the sport over

23
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:07.159
the past year, likely referencing Norwegian ski jumpers variously and

24
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:12.280
Johann Andre Forfarg that's a great last name Forefang, Yeah,

25
00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:16.000
who were found to have extra fabric applied to the

26
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:19.159
seams of their uniforms during the World Ski Championships in

27
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:23.680
twenty twenty five. The material was discovered after an examination

28
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:30.759
of the seams of their crotches after the event, and

29
00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:32.759
they all go on to you know, give more the science,

30
00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:35.520
like we did the other day, that an augmented suit,

31
00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:41.159
even just a couple of centimeters in the crotch area,

32
00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:47.000
can add close to six meters in additional distance when

33
00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:47.800
you ski jump.

34
00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:55.439
But also, who's going to tell their coach like, hey,

35
00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:56.840
check out my dog.

36
00:02:59.280 --> 00:02:59.800
Shoot up to.

37
00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:02.800
Show well, I mean, they have to measure these suits.

38
00:03:03.159 --> 00:03:08.039
So there's someone that's trying to find cheaters by measuring

39
00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:12.240
the amount of material on the suits, including the crouch areas.

40
00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:15.680
So if this picks up enough steam, does that mean

41
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:18.919
that that team that measures the suits are also going

42
00:03:18.960 --> 00:03:20.120
to have to start measuring.

43
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:27.840
Well, it sounds like the shirts. The suits are uniformly measured.

44
00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:31.520
They body scan everyone and they measure them to fit

45
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:38.759
each person. Yes, why are we talking about ski jumping?

46
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:42.560
It literally it's a sport that maybe five hundred people

47
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:43.360
in the world care about.

48
00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:47.400
Yeah, but I can't stop talking about it, and neither

49
00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:51.919
can the Internet look anything to get the ratings up

50
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:55.360
or the Olympics or is it great? Is what?

51
00:03:56.560 --> 00:04:01.599
That's it? Or you're dick or that you know?

52
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:04.840
They do say that the Olympics are a tental thing

53
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:09.000
for NBC, so this is I'm sure NBC is loving this.

54
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:13.080
They're going to try to ignore it to a certain

55
00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:17.399
extent to maintain some air of credibility and whatever, but

56
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:22.000
they'll take the extra eyeballs. Speaking of which, I don't

57
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:24.959
think it's any coincidence. Hang on, let me get this

58
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:27.519
accurate here. I like to be accurate.

59
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:29.040
Since when.

60
00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:35.759
Since always Trey. Unless I'm lying, I don't think it's

61
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:40.360
any coincidence that we have all the swirling controversy about

62
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:45.759
the possibility of men's ski jumpers injecting substances into their

63
00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:50.519
genitals to get extra fabric to fly farther in competition.

64
00:04:53.240 --> 00:04:59.759
I don't think it's any coincidence that on Saturday, Valentine's Day,

65
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:03.800
that's the day that they are doing the men's Large

66
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:06.240
Hill Individuals ski jumping competition.

67
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:11.560
Here's what I think this is. We all know that

68
00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:14.439
the Olympic village is a big f fest, and I

69
00:05:14.519 --> 00:05:17.040
think the ski jumpers got together and go, hey, what's

70
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:18.279
going to give us an advantage?

71
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:23.480
That's right? And also it gave them an advantage in competition.

72
00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:27.079
Let screw the competition. They are like, you know what,

73
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:29.480
what's gonna get us laid the most?

74
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:31.959
Yeah? No, I'm with you. I think that was the goal.

75
00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:37.720
And then and then they felt additional benefits once they

76
00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:41.160
went back to, you know, practicing. You're like, hey, this

77
00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:42.720
works on two levels.

78
00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:46.360
Oh, I'm saying they're not even doing it. I'm saying

79
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:50.839
this is all made up just to get chicks.

80
00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:55.600
Oh, well, imagine their disappointment.

81
00:05:56.160 --> 00:06:00.160
Well, chances are, while they're already there.

82
00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:03.800
You're not wrong.

83
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:07.800
You're gonna hear a lot of I thought it was

84
00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:11.839
going to be bigger. Should have seen it before the injection.

85
00:06:13.439 --> 00:06:15.199
No, wonder why you didn't win gold?

86
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:18.800
Oh, you're a qualifier.

87
00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:20.040
I see.

88
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:26.199
This this. Former ski jumper Casey Larson also said some

89
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:29.839
athletes may push the limits of acceptable surface area, perhaps

90
00:06:29.920 --> 00:06:34.879
with their uniforms or gloves, but said it's not widespread.

91
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:39.560
It's also an equipment based sport, which means that every

92
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:42.720
piece of gear, skis, helmet, boots could have an impact

93
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:45.120
on the link of a jump, and that sometimes puts

94
00:06:45.160 --> 00:06:49.240
a spotlight on the wrong elements. What is it they say,

95
00:06:49.240 --> 00:06:51.360
if you're not you're not cheating, You're not trying.

96
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:55.120
Yeah, if you're not cheating, you're not trying to win.

97
00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:59.319
Mm hmm. I mean when you're when you're at this

98
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:03.319
level of comp petition, every centimeter matters.

99
00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:08.879
That's a horrible philosophy. You're not cheating, you're not trying,

100
00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:10.319
says the cheaters.

101
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:17.319
I think that I think that saying originated in NASCAR

102
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:22.360
just to get really yeah, as some guys chiseling off

103
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:26.439
a fraction of a centimeter on the hood for whatever

104
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:31.279
additional bump and aero dynamics. Oh you know that comes

105
00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:33.000
from back in the day. I actually I think it

106
00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:36.360
was Richard Petty that said that. But when when stock

107
00:07:36.399 --> 00:07:39.319
cars were actually stock and you had they had a

108
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:41.800
lot of range and what they could do to them

109
00:07:41.800 --> 00:07:45.319
to make them faster. Yeah, the gray area of the rules.

110
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:48.279
Well, and honestly, that was at a time when the

111
00:07:48.279 --> 00:07:52.079
stock car racing was really really interesting because here's your

112
00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:54.480
stock car, and now what's up to you to make

113
00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:57.279
it go fast? And here's a few parameters that you

114
00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:00.839
have to work inside. And then they got really good

115
00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:02.759
at it, and they got so good at it that

116
00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:04.959
then NASCAR is like, Okay, we need to do some

117
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:07.480
actual rules here because you guys are going crazy. And

118
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:11.560
so they did that. But the tradition of finding ways

119
00:08:12.120 --> 00:08:17.480
to skirt the rules or just outright cheat remain, and

120
00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:19.720
then it's you know, it's kind of like they just

121
00:08:19.759 --> 00:08:20.600
get better at it.

122
00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:25.399
That it comes from NASCAR now makes sense.

123
00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:28.720
If you're if you ain't cheating, you ain't trying. Yeah,

124
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:30.720
I think that's I think that's the exact quote. It's

125
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:31.279
two eights.

126
00:08:33.080 --> 00:08:37.039
Yeah, I've never seen I've never seen one NASCAR race

127
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:37.720
in my life.

128
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:44.120
Sure you have, no have you seen possibly, uh, Trey,

129
00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:45.759
how many laps are in a typical race?

130
00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:46.720
Two?

131
00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:51.159
Have you ever seen two hundred clips of NASCAR race?

132
00:08:51.240 --> 00:08:54.480
Raj Y like just in a bar see it up

133
00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:56.399
on TV and there's a clip and you just see it.

134
00:08:57.639 --> 00:09:00.159
I bet in your lifetime you've seen one race just

135
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:03.039
wasn't all one raised. They were just together.

136
00:09:03.799 --> 00:09:07.000
I couldn't tell you a single person's name or team

137
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:08.159
or nothing.

138
00:09:08.639 --> 00:09:11.720
You know my name? You know one name from NASCAR?

139
00:09:12.960 --> 00:09:13.320
Who's that?

140
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:15.440
You know? Dick Trickle.

141
00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:22.480
No, but that's a fantastic name.

142
00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:26.759
It wasn't Trery. Wasn't that the name from uh.

143
00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:29.879
Days of Thunder?

144
00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:34.000
Yeah, Days of Thunder? No, sorry, Cold Trickle.

145
00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:37.919
Dick Trickle was actual racer. And that was the joke

146
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:41.039
of the old Sports Center with Dan Patrick and Keith Oberman.

147
00:09:43.960 --> 00:09:44.720
Dick Trickle.

148
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:48.519
That's my bad. I got, I got, I got reality

149
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:52.279
and Hollywood crossed up. Hollywood's like, we can't name this

150
00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:54.919
driver Dick Trickle. No one would believe it. So they

151
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:59.960
named Tom Cruise's character Cole Trickle, and then lo and behold.

152
00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:03.600
A few years later, an actual Dick Trickle emerged onto

153
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:05.000
the racing scene.

154
00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:06.960
And then into porn.

155
00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:13.360
Hey, you lay the groundwork in one industry as you

156
00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:16.159
build a second one down the light.

157
00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:20.519
I've been I've been invited to the NASCAR races at

158
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:21.759
the Texas Motor Speedway.

159
00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:25.679
But I've never they're fun. They're fun races, man, It's

160
00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:27.360
it's at mm hmm.

161
00:10:29.080 --> 00:10:31.679
Yeah. I know a buddy of mine always runs an

162
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:34.720
RV and goes out there for the whole time and

163
00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:37.559
they partied up and all that, and I've been invited

164
00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:42.320
to that, and I'm like, I will pass. I just

165
00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:45.919
can't just watching cars turn left all day. I can't.

166
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:46.840
I can't do it.

167
00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:49.679
Oh, it's it is cool when you get in the

168
00:10:49.720 --> 00:10:54.639
stands and you know, you you can feel the cars. Uh,

169
00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:58.399
But it's the the event as a whole. The race

170
00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:00.320
For a lot of people, the race is second. Darry

171
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:03.279
did the big party that takes place all weekend, gotch

172
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:05.279
I mean we used to be part of a group

173
00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:10.240
that we rent like five RVs and basically take up

174
00:11:10.279 --> 00:11:14.960
this big section of campground. And I mean even to

175
00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:18.000
the point these guys literally went out there in the

176
00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:20.879
off season and poured the concrete so they could put

177
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:24.240
the stripper pull in and then you know, big crawfish

178
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:27.080
boil and it's it was fun.

179
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:33.559
Oh, crawfish and strippers, That's the American dream.

180
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:37.840
And raised a couple thousand dollars for charity in the process.

181
00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:40.000
Oh, I'm glad she made some money. That's good.

182
00:11:43.639 --> 00:11:45.279
Laugh all you want. But I went to middle school

183
00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:46.279
with a girl named Charity.

184
00:11:46.879 --> 00:11:50.440
Yeah, I went to school to a girl Charity in

185
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:54.240
one with Chastity. That was That was my favorite one.

186
00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:57.080
I bet they had a good double feature at the

187
00:11:57.120 --> 00:12:04.440
Platinum Club. I will say the uh, the NASCAR events

188
00:12:04.440 --> 00:12:07.200
are a lot of fun I've had. There were some

189
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:11.159
people that would really the race, like not even secondary.

190
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:12.759
They didn't even care about the race. They would just

191
00:12:12.840 --> 00:12:15.399
go for the campground party on the infield stuff they had.

192
00:12:15.639 --> 00:12:17.679
The race was just whatever they might leave before the

193
00:12:17.759 --> 00:12:19.480
race even happened, just to beat traffic.

194
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:23.519
Do you have to do you have to pay for

195
00:12:23.559 --> 00:12:24.600
the campground stuff?

196
00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:31.919
Mm hmm, it's not. I mean if for the actual sites,

197
00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:34.440
I forgot what it is. It's not. It's not terribly expensive,

198
00:12:34.559 --> 00:12:37.480
but I mean it's listen, people put out throw out

199
00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:39.360
a lot of money. I mean, and the RVs and

200
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:43.840
everything else that go out there, and the setups. It's

201
00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:45.440
like I said, it's a it's a fun time.

202
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:50.519
My buddy, my buddy Brut's been going twenty five years.

203
00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:55.399
He's been going out there every single year, and it

204
00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:58.320
says a blast, and I again been invited, and I.

205
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:00.440
Just I don't know.

206
00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:02.879
I'm not going to tell you that you should go,

207
00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:06.639
but you know, if you've been invited that many times,

208
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:09.919
it's an experience that you can add to your you know,

209
00:13:10.720 --> 00:13:14.000
not necessarily a bucket list item you may currently have,

210
00:13:14.080 --> 00:13:15.759
but you could just write it down then check it out.

211
00:13:15.759 --> 00:13:17.399
But hey, I did this thing, now now I know

212
00:13:17.919 --> 00:13:20.519
what it is, and maybe you get material out of

213
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:25.039
it as well. That's think of it as a work trip.

214
00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:29.120
Raj okay, go out there for a night, have fun,

215
00:13:29.240 --> 00:13:32.480
get drunk, see a bunch of boobs, and then uh

216
00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:36.320
go for the start of the race, the pageantry, everything

217
00:13:36.360 --> 00:13:38.639
else to fly over when you feel when they fire

218
00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:42.240
up the engines and you can literally feel it, and then.

219
00:13:42.480 --> 00:13:43.679
Leave when they're all distracted.

220
00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:47.480
See this isn't in the stands. A buddy of mine

221
00:13:47.519 --> 00:13:50.679
has a box there, and that's what that doesn't sound

222
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:53.600
like a lot of fun because I know he told

223
00:13:53.639 --> 00:13:56.080
me himself, like he goes just for the same thing,

224
00:13:56.720 --> 00:14:00.159
but everybody's watching it on the TVs inside the box.

225
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:02.000
They're not even watching the actual phrase.

226
00:14:02.279 --> 00:14:06.519
Then pay for a cheap seat in the stands for

227
00:14:06.559 --> 00:14:09.799
the start, you know it won't be that much. And uh,

228
00:14:10.159 --> 00:14:13.440
like I said, feel, hell, you could just walk out

229
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:19.200
there and in the stands, feel that it's really cool

230
00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:21.720
when they fire up the engines and you feel it

231
00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:26.559
because ah and steam go buy a couple of times

232
00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:30.759
it's cool. And then especially a Texas Motor Speedway, a

233
00:14:30.799 --> 00:14:33.840
lot of times you get one car that just checks

234
00:14:33.919 --> 00:14:39.000
out after about five ten laps. Take off if you're not,

235
00:14:39.240 --> 00:14:40.600
if you're not enjoying org and then go up to

236
00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:42.960
the box and eat and drink and be with the

237
00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:43.639
fancy people.

238
00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:44.279
Yeah.

239
00:14:44.399 --> 00:14:47.720
Yeah, I will say this. Boxes are not as fun

240
00:14:47.799 --> 00:14:49.200
as being in the stands.

241
00:14:49.519 --> 00:14:55.000
Oh yeah, they have a box at and T and

242
00:14:55.879 --> 00:14:57.679
I went and watched the game with them one time,

243
00:14:57.759 --> 00:15:01.879
and literally everybody is watching the games from inside the

244
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:03.000
box on the TVs.

245
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:05.279
That's my problem with AT and T Stadium and in

246
00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:08.360
general is especially if you're on the upper like third

247
00:15:08.480 --> 00:15:10.759
or fourth level, you're watching that big screen more than

248
00:15:10.799 --> 00:15:13.519
you are in the field. Yeah, this is I mean

249
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:15.720
you went through a lot of trouble to go sit

250
00:15:15.799 --> 00:15:17.000
somewhere and watch TV.

251
00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:21.120
Yes, And I mean I went outside and I was like,

252
00:15:21.200 --> 00:15:23.679
I can throw I can literally throw a rock and

253
00:15:23.759 --> 00:15:27.960
hit deck in the head. That's how close I was.

254
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:31.879
And everybody that even came outside was doing the jumbo tron.

255
00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:33.120
They weren't even watching the field.

256
00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:45.679
So that's what I feel like we're doing now, Turing.

257
00:15:45.720 --> 00:15:48.000
We're just watching Raj on the jumbo tron. But we

258
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:56.519
can't understand a thing you're saying, Well, we can guess

259
00:15:58.960 --> 00:16:00.000
white people did something.

260
00:16:06.200 --> 00:16:10.279
You're listening to the Treehouse. Visit us online that Treehouse

261
00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:13.799
on air dot com.

262
00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:17.480
Let's get Daniel Cook from Cookdfwroofing and Restoration into the

263
00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:20.200
Treehouse eight three to three. Cook DFW is the phone

264
00:16:20.279 --> 00:16:23.440
number you will need to schedule your free roof inspection

265
00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:30.440
and property review. Daniel. I'm certain you've seen those inflatable barriers,

266
00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:34.799
the bubbles that people can activate to protect their vehicles

267
00:16:34.879 --> 00:16:38.080
during a hailstorm. Does that exist for a house yet.

268
00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:43.080
It's been talked about trying to see how they can

269
00:16:43.120 --> 00:16:45.919
make those, but I don't know if anything's ever going

270
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:46.679
to be made like that.

271
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:51.879
It would, but you know, even those ones for.

272
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:54.360
The cars, if the hill is large enough, it can

273
00:16:54.440 --> 00:16:57.159
damage the car still after those are great for those

274
00:16:57.159 --> 00:17:00.519
smaller hell events that you just don't want those nuisance

275
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:04.920
beings on your car, the pocket chains events, the large

276
00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:07.519
p size hell, you know, because it can still dent

277
00:17:07.559 --> 00:17:10.319
your car. You know, small hill's still damaging. I know

278
00:17:10.359 --> 00:17:12.359
there's a misconception out of there. We just had some

279
00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:14.720
small hell. We didn't get any damage. You probably did,

280
00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:18.960
you know, it just wasn't like things that you noticeable

281
00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:21.319
can see after a large hell event like the one

282
00:17:21.319 --> 00:17:23.279
that just went through here in Collin County, North Colin

283
00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:26.319
last September. Well, they knew they had damage because they

284
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:29.119
had windows blown out, garage doors, had hits on them,

285
00:17:29.160 --> 00:17:32.680
looked like someone had shot them. You know, everybody's windows

286
00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:35.200
are broken out in their cars, so then they know

287
00:17:35.279 --> 00:17:38.880
they had a large enough event. But as far as

288
00:17:38.920 --> 00:17:41.359
your total home protection, there's not going to be any

289
00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:44.480
kind of force filled or large balloon that you probably

290
00:17:44.480 --> 00:17:46.000
are going to be able to put around your home.

291
00:17:46.079 --> 00:17:48.799
So you just need to make sure that you hunker

292
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:51.200
down and you get that checked out as soon as

293
00:17:51.240 --> 00:17:53.720
possible to make sure you don't have substantial leaks that

294
00:17:53.799 --> 00:17:56.440
are going to be forming really soon after that storm.

295
00:17:56.799 --> 00:17:58.680
And he brings up a great point, and that is

296
00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:01.839
it doesn't matter this side of the hail that falls

297
00:18:01.920 --> 00:18:04.799
during the storm, because after the fact you need to

298
00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:08.680
have that roof inspected to see to make sure that

299
00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:11.319
there isn't any damage, because even if it's a small

300
00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:14.359
piece of damage, that can grow over time and turn

301
00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:18.480
into a massive problem even from a small hailed event.

302
00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:21.000
So give Daniel and this team a call after severe

303
00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:24.960
weather eight three three Cook DFW or that website cookdfw

304
00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:30.759
dot com.

305
00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:37.920
You're in the Treehouse Christiness online at Treehouse OnAir dot com.

306
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:39.920
This segment of the Treehouse is brought to you by

307
00:18:39.960 --> 00:18:44.359
Cookdfwroofing and Restoration. To get your free roof inspection, give

308
00:18:44.440 --> 00:18:48.359
Daniel Cook a call today eight three three Cook DFW.

309
00:18:48.440 --> 00:18:51.599
That's eight three three Cook DFW or the website Cook

310
00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:59.839
dfw dot com. We were talking earlier about the men

311
00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:03.279
ski jumping at the Olympics, and I mentioned it the

312
00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:04.960
other day. It's like, I feel like I hadn't seen

313
00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:07.119
this much stuff about the Olympics on the news or

314
00:19:07.119 --> 00:19:09.519
on social media. Well that's been sold over the last

315
00:19:09.519 --> 00:19:11.319
twenty four hours. Now I'm getting hit with lots of

316
00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:14.559
stuff and that's a lot of fun. And as we know,

317
00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:20.799
the Olympics are fraught with drama, but one Norwegian biathlete

318
00:19:20.920 --> 00:19:23.200
took it to the next level during a live post

319
00:19:23.279 --> 00:19:33.279
race interview when he actually confessed to cheating on his girlfriend. Yeah,

320
00:19:33.319 --> 00:19:35.000
so he wins a bronze medal and then he goes

321
00:19:35.039 --> 00:19:37.319
on TV to talk about post race and he says,

322
00:19:37.319 --> 00:19:41.759
I want to think he turned the volume bell. Little

323
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:47.160
bits I translate here because I now speak Norwegian. I

324
00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:54.200
think the lactures for a great day of And there's

325
00:19:55.039 --> 00:19:57.400
one person I want to share this with who may

326
00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:03.640
not be watching today, but six months ago I met

327
00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:07.440
the love of my life. It's a wonderful person in

328
00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:13.279
the world. And three minimalist I used to make my life.

329
00:20:13.279 --> 00:20:16.960
And cheating that's all I've been thinking about for a week.

330
00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:26.759
It's been the worst week of my life. So I

331
00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:31.039
had a gold medal in life. Many people out there

332
00:20:31.079 --> 00:20:34.319
now see me in a different light. I only have

333
00:20:34.440 --> 00:20:38.680
eyes and I'm not quite sure what I want to

334
00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:43.119
say here now. So he won a bronze, but this

335
00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:44.359
is going to cost him some gold.

336
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:47.480
Go bang a figure skater and shut up.

337
00:20:49.480 --> 00:20:50.640
Go find a real problem.

338
00:20:53.440 --> 00:20:55.640
Yeah, go find five foot of crazy.

339
00:20:57.400 --> 00:20:58.640
And spitting.

340
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:03.279
Only that kind of ballsy. I give him credit for that.

341
00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:10.359
Well, the cheating was ballsy. The weird thing about about

342
00:21:10.400 --> 00:21:13.440
a cheating situation is, especially if you're in the public

343
00:21:13.519 --> 00:21:19.160
eye like this guy is. I don't know if she's

344
00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:22.759
not taken him back or what the situation is. Was

345
00:21:22.799 --> 00:21:24.920
this a last ditch effort for him to show her

346
00:21:24.960 --> 00:21:27.119
how much he cares about her and be like, please

347
00:21:27.160 --> 00:21:29.920
take me back. I'm so sorry. Sure, I mean, I

348
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:32.279
still went through with this race and got a bronze medal,

349
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:35.759
but I was only thinking about you so much so

350
00:21:35.880 --> 00:21:38.279
that I'm now going to tell the world what a huge,

351
00:21:38.279 --> 00:21:42.519
massive mistake I've done, even though I didn't check with

352
00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:46.119
you to see if that's okay, because not everyone wants

353
00:21:46.160 --> 00:21:47.079
this stuff public.

354
00:21:47.799 --> 00:21:51.480
Well, I would guess. I mean, we're talking about Norway,

355
00:21:51.599 --> 00:21:56.519
so he's probably a star in Norway, where this might

356
00:21:56.559 --> 00:21:58.640
have been in some kind of you know, page six

357
00:21:58.680 --> 00:22:03.000
type thing there, and you know otherwise where we couldn't

358
00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:05.440
tell you who are when her athletes were for left

359
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:05.960
nor money.

360
00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:09.400
Most Americans couldn't even tell you what a biathlon is.

361
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:17.160
So uh but is that? I mean, I feel like

362
00:22:17.200 --> 00:22:19.720
he's trying to like kind of flog himself in front

363
00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:21.640
of the world to get her back and I just

364
00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:25.160
I don't think that's probably gonna work. I don't think

365
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:29.160
adding adding more spotlight on your transgressions is the way

366
00:22:29.200 --> 00:22:29.920
to get her back.

367
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:33.759
You don't think embarrassing her. You don't think embarrassing her

368
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:40.720
further on, not just you know, national stage, but international

369
00:22:40.759 --> 00:22:42.920
stage is gonna do is gonna be the thing that

370
00:22:43.039 --> 00:22:43.640
gets her back?

371
00:22:43.720 --> 00:22:47.440
Yeah, I don't think so, because I'm sure the problem.

372
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:50.960
You know, in Norway everyone knew. Now the world knows.

373
00:22:52.480 --> 00:22:55.160
Yeah, but he also said she wasn't watching. So like

374
00:22:55.559 --> 00:22:57.480
what he said, he didn't know if she was watching.

375
00:22:59.279 --> 00:23:03.799
But on the off chance that she was, partly because

376
00:23:03.799 --> 00:23:07.720
maybe somewhere deep down she hopes that he's successful, or

377
00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:11.319
maybe also partly she's watching just to see if she

378
00:23:11.359 --> 00:23:13.559
can catch him cheating on her again somewhere in the

379
00:23:13.559 --> 00:23:14.640
background of a race.

380
00:23:16.400 --> 00:23:18.799
Yeah, well, even if she wasn't watching, one of her

381
00:23:18.799 --> 00:23:23.240
friends was, oh, yeah, there's always there's always a friend.

382
00:23:25.559 --> 00:23:27.359
It's kind of like it's kind of like in court,

383
00:23:27.759 --> 00:23:33.319
you have the court stenographer. The court stenographer is like

384
00:23:33.359 --> 00:23:37.359
the friend, and they will report back as to what

385
00:23:37.400 --> 00:23:40.000
you have done, what you've said, all of it.

386
00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:44.039
Yeah, I mean, maybe one of the family members that

387
00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:46.960
he was talking about that he thanked. Maybe they're friends

388
00:23:47.000 --> 00:23:51.039
with her as well. You gotta go watch, because on

389
00:23:51.079 --> 00:23:53.039
a global stage he was so sorry, he.

390
00:23:53.039 --> 00:23:56.599
Cried, I know, I mean, sure he thanked the waxers,

391
00:23:56.640 --> 00:23:58.799
but then he went right to you and said, you know,

392
00:23:58.880 --> 00:23:59.839
he really screwed up.

393
00:24:01.960 --> 00:24:06.400
If we're talking about this a podcast based in Texas,

394
00:24:07.799 --> 00:24:11.079
I'm quite sure Norway is a buzz about this.

395
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:15.319
Oh yeah, Scandinavia is all hot and bothered by it.

396
00:24:18.559 --> 00:24:23.920
Do you think that going on international television after winning

397
00:24:23.920 --> 00:24:28.759
a bronze medal in the biathlon admitting to cheating is

398
00:24:28.799 --> 00:24:30.279
gonna get her back? No?

399
00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:39.359
Yeah, you never know. It depends on the girl, Like

400
00:24:39.440 --> 00:24:42.000
she could be five feet of crazy, Like you know what,

401
00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:48.559
that was perfect, he he apologized on national on international TV.

402
00:24:48.920 --> 00:24:51.839
You're right, maybe maybe maybe what she needed, maybe what

403
00:24:51.880 --> 00:24:54.160
she wanted was a grand gesture.

404
00:24:55.839 --> 00:24:58.799
I generally feel like one of the big things with cheating,

405
00:24:59.160 --> 00:25:04.000
and especially with women, is the embarrassment of it. And

406
00:25:04.119 --> 00:25:06.480
so I don't think going public is going to do

407
00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:09.400
yourself any favors, especially when you.

408
00:25:09.480 --> 00:25:14.079
Kind of also mm hmm. Yeah, so he embarrassed himself

409
00:25:14.079 --> 00:25:22.119
as well her. Yeah, and they can be embarrassed together

410
00:25:22.200 --> 00:25:22.559
in love.

411
00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:25.720
Now, maybe she puts them in the cutchair and watches

412
00:25:25.759 --> 00:25:27.000
the long jumpers banger.

413
00:25:30.039 --> 00:25:33.839
I don't know that's punishment right there for sure, but

414
00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:36.119
their giant injected penances.

415
00:25:38.319 --> 00:25:41.000
Just a whole mountain just lined up. The ski lift

416
00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:43.640
after ski lift after ski lift, next one, next one,

417
00:25:43.720 --> 00:25:44.200
next one.

418
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:46.400
Oh no, not that you're making Bob sled team.

419
00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:58.519
You don't want to go after them.

431
00:26:44.079 --> 00:26:46.839
All right, uh so, now that we got Olympics stuff

432
00:26:46.839 --> 00:26:48.279
out of the way, let's go back to one of

433
00:26:48.319 --> 00:26:53.160
the biggest stories of the week. The numbers are in

434
00:26:53.240 --> 00:26:58.039
from Super Bowl sixties halftime show. Bad Bunny's performance landed

435
00:26:58.079 --> 00:27:01.559
at number two all time with one hundred and twenty

436
00:27:01.720 --> 00:27:07.440
eight million viewers and a possible federal investigation. So take that,

437
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:15.599
Kendrick Lamar. United States Congressman Andy Ogles is demanding an

438
00:27:15.599 --> 00:27:19.519
investigation into Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show, which he

439
00:27:19.640 --> 00:27:26.440
described as pure smut, and he's also concerned about the

440
00:27:26.480 --> 00:27:31.400
widespread torking some stories I wish I was making up

441
00:27:32.079 --> 00:27:37.160
and this is actually one of them. Congressman Ogles, a

442
00:27:37.200 --> 00:27:39.599
fifty four year old Republican from Tennessee, called for a

443
00:27:39.720 --> 00:27:45.480
formal congressional inquiry into the National Football League and NBC

444
00:27:45.680 --> 00:27:51.240
immediately for their prior knowledge, deliberate approval, and facilitation of

445
00:27:51.279 --> 00:27:56.079
this indecent island in the oh wait, sorry, this indecent broadcast.

446
00:27:56.160 --> 00:27:59.440
That's what he's upset about. That was on Monday, February night.

447
00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:03.720
He says American culture will not be mocked or corrupted

448
00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:10.559
without consequence. He also added children were forced to endure

449
00:28:11.640 --> 00:28:16.880
explicit displays of gay sexual acts, women gyrating provocatively, and

450
00:28:16.960 --> 00:28:20.599
bad Money shamelessly grabbing his crutch while dry humping the air.

451
00:28:21.319 --> 00:28:25.640
And if that weren't outrageous enough. Their performance's lyrics openly

452
00:28:25.680 --> 00:28:30.920
glorified sodomy and countless other unspeakable depravities. These flagrant indecent

453
00:28:31.000 --> 00:28:35.880
acts are illegal to be displayed on public airways. And

454
00:28:36.039 --> 00:28:39.519
I am left wondering which Super Bowl halftime performance did

455
00:28:39.559 --> 00:28:42.640
he see? Because I feel I feel like I need

456
00:28:42.680 --> 00:28:44.640
to go back and rewatch this to see, like, Okay,

457
00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:46.880
what did I miss?

458
00:28:46.039 --> 00:28:50.119
I want to know how he knows what they're saying,

459
00:28:50.119 --> 00:28:54.519
because I don't believe I find just questioning that to

460
00:28:54.559 --> 00:28:54.960
begin with.

461
00:28:55.400 --> 00:28:58.000
Yeah, I mean that was sort of the main problem

462
00:28:58.119 --> 00:29:00.440
with a bunch of people with the halftime shows. They

463
00:29:00.440 --> 00:29:03.240
were pissed because it wasn't going to be in English

464
00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:07.319
and they wouldn't understand it. Well, there's a benefit to

465
00:29:08.039 --> 00:29:10.880
things not being in your native tongue is maybe you

466
00:29:10.920 --> 00:29:13.079
won't understand it, so that way you may not be

467
00:29:13.119 --> 00:29:18.519
offended by it. But whatever. In a letter, a strongly

468
00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:22.000
worded letter written to Brent Guthrie, the Chairman of the

469
00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:26.079
Committee on Energy and Commerce, Ogels pointed out specific points

470
00:29:26.119 --> 00:29:30.000
of contention with Bad Bunny's performance, which aired live on Sunday.

471
00:29:30.400 --> 00:29:33.119
He criticized Bad Bunny for performing his song so Farah,

472
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:37.680
which the congressman said includes references to an lingus sexual

473
00:29:37.720 --> 00:29:41.079
intercourse and other explicit themes. I seriously got to go

474
00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:43.759
back and rewatch the halftime show with the close captioning on.

475
00:29:44.440 --> 00:29:48.400
He also referenced the choreography during your perio sola obviously

476
00:29:48.440 --> 00:29:52.319
I don't speak Spanish, which he said featured overtly sexualized movements,

477
00:29:52.359 --> 00:29:55.960
including widespread twerking, which you were doing it right, working is,

478
00:29:55.960 --> 00:30:01.720
widespread grinding, pelvic thrusts, and oh and others sexually suggestive conduct.

479
00:30:02.279 --> 00:30:02.799
Mm hmmm.

480
00:30:07.799 --> 00:30:09.720
Did I I got none of that?

481
00:30:10.880 --> 00:30:14.799
I mean I did I notice some some crotch grabbing. Yeah,

482
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:18.960
but you get that during a normal football game. And

483
00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:22.079
and some of it wasn't like as direct crotch grabbing

484
00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:25.240
the way that we grew up watching Madonna and Michael

485
00:30:25.279 --> 00:30:29.640
Jackson do. It was more kind of like on the sides,

486
00:30:29.720 --> 00:30:34.519
It's more like the groin area, you know. And I

487
00:30:34.559 --> 00:30:39.240
didn't really see any actual torking, like what's oferking?

488
00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:42.000
I mean, God bless them for it. It made you know,

489
00:30:42.240 --> 00:30:44.119
if you didn't understand the lyrics, at least you kind

490
00:30:44.119 --> 00:30:44.799
of understood that.

491
00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:46.680
Yeah, you understood the show. You're like.

492
00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:54.319
Hot hot Latina chicks dancing. Okay, yeah, I there's always

493
00:30:54.319 --> 00:30:56.000
got to be one that's got to turn it, turn

494
00:30:56.039 --> 00:30:57.519
it into a fucking circus.

495
00:30:57.960 --> 00:31:00.119
And I just now I'm wondering maybe what happen and

496
00:31:00.400 --> 00:31:03.839
was as he's watching the halftime show with the goal

497
00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:08.400
of being outraged and titillated and you know, angry, maybe

498
00:31:08.400 --> 00:31:12.240
he looked down and it was like, uh oh, I'm

499
00:31:12.319 --> 00:31:15.440
visibly turned on and and Mama sitting next to me

500
00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:18.000
just saw it, which means now I have to do

501
00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:20.119
something to fix this.

502
00:31:21.880 --> 00:31:25.440
I mean, there's always got to be one that's gonna

503
00:31:25.480 --> 00:31:27.880
try to make a name for himself. I mean, because generally,

504
00:31:28.240 --> 00:31:32.680
I think a lot of the response to Bad Bunny

505
00:31:33.119 --> 00:31:37.400
was gonna be the same thing from people whether they

506
00:31:37.480 --> 00:31:39.759
watched the show or not. People were gonna say, oh

507
00:31:39.759 --> 00:31:41.920
my god, I loved it whatever, even though they may

508
00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:44.480
not have understood a fucking thing. And the same side

509
00:31:44.519 --> 00:31:46.079
as they didn't see it and they're like, oh my god,

510
00:31:46.079 --> 00:31:46.880
it's an abomination.

511
00:31:47.359 --> 00:31:47.880
Yeah.

512
00:31:48.279 --> 00:31:52.519
But then I think, after all, you know, that virtue

513
00:31:52.559 --> 00:31:56.680
signaling went away. Everyone's like, okay, whatever and move on.

514
00:31:57.119 --> 00:31:58.039
This is a halftime show.

515
00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:03.519
And at a certain point, it's like, okay, it was fine.

516
00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:08.599
It really there there was I mean, you know, we

517
00:32:08.640 --> 00:32:16.599
didn't see Janet Jackson's teet, so who cares, it's still

518
00:32:16.640 --> 00:32:16.960
gonna be.

519
00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:18.160
He's just trying just.

520
00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:22.200
Then, he's just trying to make a name for himself.

521
00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:24.799
I mean, I hate you like Trump.

522
00:32:24.839 --> 00:32:27.519
Trump released the statement the next day as well, where

523
00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:30.240
he's like, kids were forced to watch It's almost verbatim.

524
00:32:30.759 --> 00:32:32.640
Kids were you know, there were children at home that

525
00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:34.319
had to watch these women gyrating.

526
00:32:34.359 --> 00:32:37.640
And you know, it's not like you got a bunch

527
00:32:37.640 --> 00:32:40.759
of you know, five year olds with clockwork orange goggles

528
00:32:40.759 --> 00:32:43.519
on with their eyelids peeled up being forced to watch this.

529
00:32:44.039 --> 00:32:44.920
That's not the case.

530
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:49.960
Just yeah, So he was just you know, he's just

531
00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:51.480
trying to be in the same spotlight with.

532
00:32:53.079 --> 00:32:55.839
And and and that's and that's we try to stay

533
00:32:55.880 --> 00:32:57.359
away from some of this type of stuff. But at

534
00:32:57.400 --> 00:32:59.640
the end of the day, it's like Trey said, it's

535
00:32:59.759 --> 00:33:03.359
rich really not a big deal. And really what happens

536
00:33:03.440 --> 00:33:07.759
is with these culture war situations is you make something

537
00:33:07.880 --> 00:33:12.559
a bigger deal than it actually is, and in doing so,

538
00:33:12.920 --> 00:33:18.680
you put a brighter spotlight on it, and at the

539
00:33:18.759 --> 00:33:24.519
end of the day. That doesn't do anything positive for anybody.

540
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:30.880
Right, Members of Congress are the shoe salesmen of politics. Yes,

541
00:33:30.960 --> 00:33:34.720
they're fucking worthless. They run every two years and either

542
00:33:34.759 --> 00:33:36.759
they have a cushy gig and they will just get

543
00:33:36.839 --> 00:33:39.839
reelected as long as they run, or else they have

544
00:33:39.880 --> 00:33:42.279
to make a name for themselves. And this is both sides,

545
00:33:42.480 --> 00:33:49.240
all of them. Oh yeah, and they they just do

546
00:33:49.440 --> 00:33:51.960
some of the dumbest stuff to keep their name in

547
00:33:52.039 --> 00:33:52.799
the news cycle.

548
00:33:54.000 --> 00:33:56.119
And they're not even good shoe salesmen. It's not like

549
00:33:56.160 --> 00:33:59.200
they're selling good shoes at like the Nike outlet or something.

550
00:33:59.359 --> 00:34:02.079
These are like the like the shoe salesman at like

551
00:34:02.319 --> 00:34:04.720
Kinney's in the mall in the eighties.

552
00:34:05.480 --> 00:34:11.239
Yeah, when they want to start addressing their insider trading,

553
00:34:11.639 --> 00:34:13.920
let's talk, yes.

554
00:34:14.360 --> 00:34:16.760
Or an actual problem that Americans have.

555
00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:20.559
No fuck it, I want an insider trading. Let's talk

556
00:34:20.559 --> 00:34:24.400
about congressional insider trading and how they're all millionaires within

557
00:34:24.440 --> 00:34:25.119
a couple of years.

558
00:34:27.079 --> 00:34:28.800
On board with that, I would love that.

559
00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:34.119
Yeah, there's there is a fund that mirrors Nancy Pelosi's

560
00:34:34.119 --> 00:34:35.960
trades and it's always up.

561
00:34:37.159 --> 00:34:39.719
It's it does phenomenal the returns on it are insane,

562
00:34:44.360 --> 00:34:49.360
but widespread torking and Andy Ogles from Tennessee has a

563
00:34:49.400 --> 00:34:53.760
problem with it. Honestly, you know what, I take it back,

564
00:34:54.960 --> 00:34:57.840
do the inquiry. I would love to see a nationally

565
00:34:57.920 --> 00:35:04.119
televised congressional inquiry about a Super Bowl halftime show. Please

566
00:35:04.400 --> 00:35:06.159
put your stupidity on display.

567
00:35:07.440 --> 00:35:13.000
And I hope that Bunny answers every question in Spanish, which.

568
00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:17.360
He is legally allowed to do, or he doesn't answer

569
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:20.440
the subpoena because it was in English.

570
00:35:20.639 --> 00:35:24.079
No, even I hope, I hope this. This would be

571
00:35:24.079 --> 00:35:28.840
the ultimate indignity for I hope he pleads the fifth

572
00:35:28.880 --> 00:35:34.599
in Spanish.

573
00:35:34.719 --> 00:35:46.760
Thinkle mm hmmm, sinkle thinko all he keeps saying, hey, hey, Sinkle.

574
00:35:47.239 --> 00:35:54.360
Maybe I could just be his new song. God. Oh,

575
00:35:54.400 --> 00:35:56.280
This is where I would typically say, you know what,

576
00:35:56.440 --> 00:35:59.199
it's good that we don't have serious problems that we

577
00:35:59.239 --> 00:36:02.199
get to worry about stuff like this, But we actually

578
00:36:02.239 --> 00:36:05.800
do have serious problems and we're being distracted by nonsense.

579
00:36:06.400 --> 00:36:10.280
Eh. Yeah, that's the that's the case. That's what they

580
00:36:10.280 --> 00:36:12.880
want to do. They want to keep you distracted from

581
00:36:12.880 --> 00:36:14.239
the actual problems that are happening.

582
00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:17.039
So here's the shiny object to make you mad, don't

583
00:36:17.039 --> 00:36:19.280
pay attention to all the other bad stuff over here.

584
00:36:20.280 --> 00:36:25.199
And I didn't see any gay pornography or whatever it

585
00:36:25.280 --> 00:36:27.159
was one of these other senators is trying to say

586
00:36:27.159 --> 00:36:27.719
now as well.

587
00:36:28.000 --> 00:36:31.000
And I saw like I saw, like very briefly in

588
00:36:31.039 --> 00:36:31.719
the performance.

589
00:36:31.760 --> 00:36:35.000
I saw I saw two guys look like they were kissing.

590
00:36:35.159 --> 00:36:37.679
I don't I don't know if I saw that, but

591
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:39.599
I did see two guys like they were pretty close

592
00:36:39.639 --> 00:36:41.639
to each other and they were obviously dancing on each other.

593
00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:43.920
But they didn't even show them from the waist down.

594
00:36:43.960 --> 00:36:46.039
It was from behind like a car door. But I

595
00:36:46.079 --> 00:36:47.960
did catch my eye. I was like, I think that

596
00:36:48.079 --> 00:36:50.480
was a couple of homies there. And then maybe one

597
00:36:50.519 --> 00:36:53.079
other time in the performance, but it was nothing so

598
00:36:53.400 --> 00:36:56.360
in your face, and I was like, hey, that's inappropriate.

599
00:36:59.079 --> 00:37:03.840
It is. It is amazing that everyone gets so worked

600
00:37:03.920 --> 00:37:08.599
up over a twelve minute show that is in the

601
00:37:08.599 --> 00:37:13.920
middle book ended by twenty two men at a time

602
00:37:14.239 --> 00:37:15.320
trying to kill each other.

603
00:37:15.880 --> 00:37:25.519
Yeah, we're all watching these men get permanent brain damage.

604
00:37:26.559 --> 00:37:29.679
But you know, someone shook it too vigorously.

605
00:37:30.880 --> 00:37:32.239
Yeah. But also, I mean, like when you're in the

606
00:37:32.280 --> 00:37:36.000
quarterback and you're not enough in the backfield. You're up

607
00:37:36.079 --> 00:37:40.679
under somebody's junk, and so that should be that should

608
00:37:40.800 --> 00:37:41.960
be morally confusing for.

609
00:37:41.960 --> 00:37:44.960
That guy as well. I wonder if that's why they've

610
00:37:44.960 --> 00:37:49.480
gone to more shotgun sets in modern football. At someone

611
00:37:49.599 --> 00:37:52.599
at some point they're like, you know what, me and

612
00:37:52.719 --> 00:37:54.880
Jeff aren't close enough for me to get in there.

613
00:37:55.559 --> 00:37:59.039
Yeah, the center's got to be like very comfortable with

614
00:37:59.119 --> 00:38:06.039
his sexuality. Yea, go ahead and put your hands under there.

615
00:38:08.320 --> 00:38:12.599
The center is an amazing position in the NFL, so

616
00:38:12.719 --> 00:38:16.199
much responsibility falls on you other than the quarterback. The

617
00:38:16.239 --> 00:38:23.480
center touches the ball more than anybody and touches his Yeah,

618
00:38:24.239 --> 00:38:27.719
and typically, and typically the guy on the field with

619
00:38:27.800 --> 00:38:30.000
the biggest hands is the quarterback.

620
00:38:33.079 --> 00:38:36.519
I mean they zoomed in. Uh, I can't remember its

621
00:38:36.559 --> 00:38:39.239
first second quarter, but they zoomed in, and I was like, man,

622
00:38:39.280 --> 00:38:44.880
that is you gotta be good friends. You've got to

623
00:38:44.920 --> 00:38:45.559
be so close.

624
00:38:46.360 --> 00:38:49.239
Yeah, I mean you're you're you're inviting each other's kids

625
00:38:49.239 --> 00:38:55.440
over to birthday parties and stuff. And also there's there's

626
00:38:55.440 --> 00:39:00.400
that relationship between quarterback and center that's called the silent count.

627
00:39:02.199 --> 00:39:05.440
Oh yeah, well he just slaps him on the butt.

628
00:39:05.960 --> 00:39:08.599
No, No, that's obvious. Now. The silent count is when

629
00:39:08.639 --> 00:39:11.239
you get under center and your hands go under and

630
00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:14.519
you decide to do silent count. And what silent count

631
00:39:14.559 --> 00:39:16.679
means is the quarterback's going to thump the center right

632
00:39:16.719 --> 00:39:21.920
on the nut, and that means give me the ball. Yeah.

633
00:39:22.000 --> 00:39:25.159
I don't know if maybe they've updated it in modern times,

634
00:39:25.199 --> 00:39:28.719
but that was how that was how they did it

635
00:39:28.760 --> 00:39:31.000
in you know, my day of football, and that's why

636
00:39:31.000 --> 00:39:32.119
I didn't want to play center.

637
00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:37.400
Yeah. Uh. And also calling it a silent count, it's

638
00:39:37.400 --> 00:39:39.840
also like saying, hey, man, keep quiet about what I

639
00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:45.679
just did. You will shut the fuck up.

640
00:39:47.519 --> 00:39:49.840
Yeah. And that's the thing too, It's like you kind

641
00:39:49.840 --> 00:39:51.559
of know when the play is coming because you don't

642
00:39:51.599 --> 00:39:54.440
hear the quarterback say hut. Instead you hear this center

643
00:39:54.480 --> 00:39:57.519
go ah and then off you go.

644
00:40:00.079 --> 00:40:00.239
Try.

645
00:40:00.280 --> 00:40:06.039
Did they teach it that way where you went to school? Yeah, see,

646
00:40:06.119 --> 00:40:12.239
it's just it's a non thump and go. That's what

647
00:40:12.280 --> 00:40:13.119
they should call it.

648
00:40:14.280 --> 00:40:17.480
I wouldn't. I don't know about thump as more as

649
00:40:17.519 --> 00:40:20.199
it was kind of a little that but.

650
00:40:20.280 --> 00:40:22.639
Oh, a little tickle. It's a little tickle on the

651
00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:24.679
on the boys under there, like here you go, hey, sweet.

652
00:40:24.679 --> 00:40:27.639
It's almost like you're playing with a wind chime. Give

653
00:40:27.639 --> 00:40:27.960
me the ball.

654
00:40:31.079 --> 00:40:33.519
Yeah, that should be more offensive than anything Bad Bunny did.

655
00:40:36.320 --> 00:40:38.760
Yeah, but you don't see that on the broadcast. It

656
00:40:38.840 --> 00:40:42.400
happens deep dark underbelly of the Center.

657
00:40:43.960 --> 00:40:45.960
That's why they never interviewed the center. He just goes

658
00:40:45.960 --> 00:40:46.800
straight to therapy.

659
00:40:47.960 --> 00:40:50.639
He goes into the blue tint. Just start sharing his

660
00:40:50.760 --> 00:40:56.199
feelings and show him the doll. This is where Drake

661
00:40:56.320 --> 00:40:56.800
touched me.

662
00:40:57.119 --> 00:40:59.599
That's why Jason Kelsey gets you know, takes his shirt

663
00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:01.480
off and you have slams himself through tables.

664
00:41:03.199 --> 00:41:07.280
He's not loving life. That's trauma reaction. That's trauma response.

665
00:41:09.199 --> 00:41:11.280
That's him working through his issues.

666
00:41:12.239 --> 00:41:16.239
