Speaker 2: I'm out, you know I do. And I've been telling
Speaker 2: Rich I'll make Jack Max the guy. Dude.
Speaker 1: I don't know him personally, but I love his content.

Speaker 1: I mean, you guys got your mets bond and we'll
Speaker 1: talk about them in a minute.
Speaker 4: Yeah. No, Jack's awesome, man, Jack.
Speaker 5: So I mean when we when I started Barstool, I
Speaker 5: started the New York branch of Barstool, and at that
Speaker 5: point it was just a blog.
Speaker 4: It was just writing.
Speaker 5: And I view what what I do now on Instagram
Speaker 5: and YouTube as just video blogs. Like I know the
Speaker 5: term vlog is out there, but I believe these are
Speaker 5: These are true vlogs in the sense it's the same
Speaker 5: topics and the same jokes and the same take.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying it now rather than writing it.
Speaker 5: And when I started it, seeing a pretty you know,
Speaker 5: pretty good deal of success. Uh and and I kind
Speaker 5: of told everybody at the company. I was like, you
Speaker 5: all should do this. This is just the new way
Speaker 5: to blog. And Jack Mac has really been the only
Speaker 5: one that took it and ran with it as well.
Speaker 5: I kind of, you know, I make my bones on
Speaker 5: the Instagram side, he brushes the TikTok side drives me
Speaker 5: crazy how many followers he has.
Speaker 3: Right, I'm more of an Instagram guy hence KFC guy
Speaker 3: and Comno's TikTok boy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: It's like WWS WCW back in the day. You know
Speaker 5: which Monday night show where you watch it. But he,
Speaker 5: I mean, he is smoking it on TikTok. He's doing
Speaker 5: a great job.
Speaker 1: Now, before we talk baseball, we're all baseball fans.
Speaker 2: Baseball's popping, right.
Speaker 1: We've been doing this a long time and it's been
Speaker 1: cool to see you just explode through that time.
Speaker 2: But I don't know a lot of the backstory.
Speaker 1: So again, thanks for giving us that New York scoop
Speaker 1: Portanoy always talks about. He was a triple Crown winner
Speaker 1: in high school baseball. I know you're a big basketball guy,
Speaker 1: so this is your chance to brag a little bit.
Speaker 1: What's your impressive stat How good were you? Were you
Speaker 1: good athlete growing up? Or were you always just a fan?
Speaker 5: I mean I was, I played sports growing up. I
Speaker 5: would not you know, I don't have a claim to fame.
Speaker 5: I don't have faster hands than Delano Deshields like David's day.
Speaker 5: I claim to fame is I was the captain of
Speaker 5: my basketball team in high school. Okay, we were two
Speaker 5: and eighteen as I was captained, So that to give
Speaker 5: you a feel for what kind of team it was.
Speaker 4: So that was that's probably where I peaked. In like
Speaker 4: fifth and sixth grade little league, I was like getting bombs.
Speaker 5: And then in basketball I was like a little bit bigger.
Speaker 5: And then once everyone was athletic, big strong, breaking balls,
Speaker 5: you know, all like it all went to shit after
Speaker 5: that because if if you got a little taste of
Speaker 5: puberty before you went to the big baseball field, that's
Speaker 5: when you.
Speaker 2: Were hitting bombs. That's when you had the opportunity. That
Speaker 2: was me.
Speaker 1: I stopped growing after twelve, but I was hitting bombs,
Speaker 1: and literally that was it. And again, as far as backstory,
Speaker 1: people always ask Rich and I, how'd you meet man?
Speaker 1: You guys been working together so long, You and poor Nooy,
Speaker 1: all these guys go so far back. How did you meet?
Speaker 1: Tell us the story. I want to hear the story,
Speaker 1: like what was the encounter?
Speaker 4: It's a it's all you know, work and content related.
Speaker 2: So I was.
Speaker 5: I came out of school, I got my MBA, I
Speaker 5: was an accountant. I was doing the finance worlds. And
Speaker 5: once I got to work, and I was so miserable
Speaker 5: working like a cube job. Right, there was a guy
Speaker 5: there who gave me a list of websites like here's
Speaker 5: you know, kill time reading these blogs, and barstool was
Speaker 5: one of them. So I found barstool as a fan.
Speaker 5: I was reading that, really enjoyed it. Started my own
Speaker 5: website very in a very similar vein as Barstools, like
Speaker 5: pop culture sports. Mine also added like a mix of
Speaker 5: like nineties nostalgia and like movies and stuff like that.
Speaker 5: And so I was doing that just for fun. I
Speaker 5: just needed like a creative outlet. And and while I
Speaker 5: was doing that, he put up a post being like
Speaker 5: I'm looking to expand out of Boston, like I conquered Boston.
Speaker 5: We want writers from different cities, and the first one
Speaker 5: I'm looking for is New York. So at that point
Speaker 5: I had a good job. I hated it, but it
Speaker 5: was paid well, it was safe, all that shit, and
Speaker 5: some of my friends were like, you got to you
Speaker 5: gotta throw your name in the ring here, and I
Speaker 5: was like, let me see what happens. I sent it
Speaker 5: to him and he said something to the effect of like,
Speaker 5: I've already seen this. Someone's already sent me this and
Speaker 5: told me to keep an eye on this. So he
Speaker 5: was already reading it, and it kind of went from there.
Speaker 4: He narrowed it down. We kind of did like.
Speaker 5: An audition for to to get the New York job,
Speaker 5: and he narrowed it down to me and one other guy.
Speaker 5: He couldn't decide between us, and he said, how about
Speaker 5: you guys split the job, split the money, split the writing, and.
Speaker 4: You can keep your old job, which for me was perfect.
Speaker 5: I didn't have to make a jump, I didn't have
Speaker 5: to risk anything, and that's and then, you know, so
Speaker 5: I did both jobs for a couple of years, and
Speaker 5: then once Barstool really started to take off, I made
Speaker 5: the jump full time. But as far as like meeting Dave,
Speaker 5: it was really just through through the internet. I mean,
Speaker 5: I think Once I took the job, I made a
Speaker 5: trip up to Boston and we like went to dinner
Speaker 5: and and met. But you know a lot of it
Speaker 5: was just internet nerd stuff like you blog eye blog.
Speaker 1: Rights and you clicked, and that was what around nine,
Speaker 1: I guess, right, early two thousands.
Speaker 4: Was when I started New York.
Speaker 5: And it was funny because it was like he it
Speaker 5: was almost like we were reverse Like I'm the Irish
Speaker 5: guy in New York.
Speaker 4: He's the Jewish guy in Boston.
Speaker 5: Like wet you know, all his teams won, all my
Speaker 5: team's lost. So there was this like, you know, mirror
Speaker 5: image of each other that I think worked really well
Speaker 5: early on me versus him. And then obviously he's you know,
Speaker 5: gone onto a whole other level. But you know, yeah,
Speaker 5: we uh we were the first expansion city, and I
Speaker 5: think we did a good job of showing Dave that
Speaker 5: like this worked.
Speaker 4: You know, he would have just packed up and been like,
Speaker 4: let's just go back to Boston. But that led to
Speaker 4: Philly and then Baltimore and eventually Chicago, and you know,
Speaker 4: that was kind of when the Empire started to explode.
Speaker 3: Can't talking about the the ogs like you and Dave
Speaker 3: and Big Cat. I couldn't fucking believe the pull of
Speaker 3: the Jordan card.
Speaker 2: Do you see that? Like before everyone else did. That's unbelievable.
Speaker 5: I'm surprised that you're surprised, because you know, there's certain
Speaker 5: guys Dave, certainly, I've had a long running series called
Speaker 5: Dave Portnoy has sold his soul to the devil, because
Speaker 5: it's just like the amount of stuff. He's very talented,
Speaker 5: very funny, works hard, all that shit, but the amount
Speaker 5: of stuff that just fell into his lap, Like if
Speaker 5: Boston doesn't have this dynasty, the exact Dave.
Speaker 4: First of all, Dave goes to Michigan, same class as
Speaker 4: Tom Brady.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and Tom Brady takes over Boston, The Red Sox
Speaker 5: break the curse, the Bruins win the Cup, the Big
Speaker 5: Three Celtics win a title, and all of barcels rise
Speaker 5: coincides perfectly with title down where it just made everything possible.
Speaker 5: And then Dan is, you know, right behind Dave as
Speaker 5: another one of these guys who's just you know, absolutely
Speaker 5: taken over. So yeah, I'm like, those guys should play
Speaker 5: the lottery every day because yeah, they're gonna they're they're
Speaker 5: they're they're gonna pull the Jordan rookie cards.
Speaker 2: Like that does unreal.
Speaker 1: It's a perfect storm of Austoin. But you know what,
Speaker 1: I like you, KFC.
Speaker 2: You're more I feel like you're more relatable. I really do.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: As a result, Yeah, that's.
Speaker 4: In this internet world.
Speaker 5: I feel like you either got to be like really funny,
Speaker 5: really talented, really relatable. You got one of those things
Speaker 5: going for you. And that's always kind of what I
Speaker 5: you know, the everyman sort of thing.
Speaker 1: And I always say a Mets fan, if you're a
Speaker 1: Mets fan, it means you have good character. It means
Speaker 1: you're a nice, loyal and humble guy. You know what
Speaker 1: it's like to lose. And that's why I teamed up
Speaker 1: with this dude, because he's a Mets guy and I
Speaker 1: know you're a big time Mets guy, can'fc.
Speaker 3: I want to know your take on our bet this year.
Speaker 3: Covino and I decided to do better regular season record
Speaker 3: one thousand dollars and then for each game differential one
Speaker 3: hundred bucks. So let's say the Mets have a four
Speaker 3: game better record than the Yanks. That's fourteen hundred bucks.
Speaker 3: Is to say, good bet for me or not?
Speaker 4: I think I mean the AL is just so bad.
Speaker 5: But once the you know, prior to injuries, I would
Speaker 5: have said that's not a great bet, But the way
Speaker 5: they have started, the way the Yankees have got injured,
Speaker 5: I think that's gonna be a solid bet. I don't know,
Speaker 5: I think it's I think it's gonna be a I
Speaker 5: don't think it's gonna be a huge differential for either
Speaker 5: whoever ends up winning. But I think the way the
Speaker 5: Mets are playing, They're only going to get stronger. Uh.
Speaker 5: The AL being bad is kind of an X factor there,
Speaker 5: But I think you're both.
Speaker 4: You know, that's gonna be a coin flip button comes
Speaker 4: down to it.
Speaker 1: I think you nail it. It's gonna be close. But
Speaker 1: the difference is how stacked the NL is, which is
Speaker 1: a shock when you think about. For me, I'm an
Speaker 1: AL kid growing up, I'm a Yankees fan, right the
Speaker 1: NL growing up, I always thought it was so boring, dude,
Speaker 1: And now the NL is so exciting with the Padres
Speaker 1: and the Dodgers and the Phillies and the Mets.
Speaker 3: Baseball, like you said, the way Disney went through their
Speaker 3: fucking renaissance in the nineties, baseball right now, and baseball Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's it's back right now. And I'm a big Lindor guy.
Speaker 3: Can't believe the way Pete Alonzo is playing the thought
Speaker 3: of us so willy nilly almost let him go this.
Speaker 4: I was never on that train.
Speaker 5: Maybe I know he never you know, recaptured what what
Speaker 5: he what he put up as a rookie. He was declining,
Speaker 5: you know, there was some issues, but like he's your
Speaker 5: all He's gonna be your all time leader at home runs. Yeah,
Speaker 5: he's gonna put up, you know, at least thirty bombs
Speaker 5: a year for a franchise that really has never had that.
Speaker 5: And if they do, it's a couple of guys here
Speaker 5: and there. People were turning their nose up at him
Speaker 5: like he was some scrub. I was like, are we
Speaker 5: are we talking about the same guy.
Speaker 2: I can't understand that.
Speaker 1: It's you know, like it was a negotiating tactic. I
Speaker 1: think to downplay his value because he's such a great met.
Speaker 3: Well, we're talking on Fox Sports Radio when we're filling
Speaker 3: in for Dan Patrick this morning about how Luca Nico
Speaker 3: Harrison said, Oh I didn't know the fans cared.
Speaker 4: I got How crazy was that? How crazy?
Speaker 3: I think Steve Cohen is really in touch with the fans,
Speaker 3: but I don't think they realized how much met fans
Speaker 3: like Pete Alonzo some you know.
Speaker 5: Well, but I also on there. I think a couple
Speaker 5: of things happened. One they came out of the Soto negotiation. Negotiation,
Speaker 5: I think they had Boris fatigue. I think that was,
Speaker 5: you know, they were sick of dealing with him, and
Speaker 5: for whatever reason, as I understand it from what I've
Speaker 5: heard on like insiders, like there was truly no market
Speaker 5: for him, which I just can't believe that, like you know,
Speaker 5: the Rockies or the Twins or somebody who can just
Speaker 5: throw out, you know, a contract to but when there's
Speaker 5: nobody bidding, Like, why are you gonna bid against yourself?
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 5: I didn't like how it drew out and it kind
Speaker 5: of like made him look like a chump.
Speaker 4: But I don't know. At the end of the day. Also,
Speaker 4: it's like he means thirty million dollars.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's not like, yeah, it's not like he ended
Speaker 5: up signing like a veteran minimum, you know. And I'm
Speaker 5: sure he's he's playing his way into a ton of
Speaker 5: money right now. And I can't decide whether I'm so
Speaker 5: happy for him. It's great for the team. I'm sure
Speaker 5: there's parts of him that's like, fuck yeah, like I'm
Speaker 5: showing you, guys. And then there's also parts that he
Speaker 5: must be like, why couldn't I just do this eight
Speaker 5: months ago?
Speaker 4: God damn it?
Speaker 3: Exactly, I got one less messing and we'll fucking get
Speaker 3: off the Mets.
Speaker 2: I love your Mets love, but I gotta ask you.
Speaker 3: You know, Gary Vee, Gary Vaynerchuck always talks about how
Speaker 3: you love losing.
Speaker 2: I love losing.
Speaker 3: Is a Jets guy's talking questions I losing.
Speaker 4: I just had him in the studio today.
Speaker 3: Gary is the central We've known Gary for years, and
Speaker 3: I've asked him about this. What if the Jets were
Speaker 3: to win? I think about that for guys like you
Speaker 3: and me, a KFC, if the Mets were to win,
Speaker 3: does it listen? I want it more than anything, But
Speaker 3: then what almost Let's find out.
Speaker 4: Let's let's figure it out together.
Speaker 5: Dude.
Speaker 2: You guys are little kids in diapers.
Speaker 4: Last time they won, I was I was one months old.
Speaker 4: You know. As far as I'm concerned, I don't know
Speaker 4: anything about that.
Speaker 5: I cannot even fathom whole world I don't know what
Speaker 5: it would be like.
Speaker 4: I think I'm the only person at barstool.
Speaker 5: Of note, like you know, the major bloggers and podcasters,
Speaker 5: that has never won a championship. So I've never like professionally,
Speaker 5: had like the moment to celebrate. I've never had the
Speaker 5: family moment with my mom. I've never had the friend's moment.
Speaker 5: You know, I look at like I always talking about
Speaker 5: fidal Berg, he my co host. Fidal Berg won as
Speaker 5: like a middle schooler, a high school or a college
Speaker 5: kid post college. Professionally, like every walk of life he's
Speaker 5: gotten to do. You know, I was drunk at the
Speaker 5: parade or like I'm with my old man and he's
Speaker 5: got every version of it.
Speaker 4: I've never even done one. I cannot.
Speaker 5: I don't even I don't even think about it. Like
Speaker 5: I watch every day, I watch every year.
Speaker 4: I hope for it, but.
Speaker 5: I don't ever. You know, there are there are people
Speaker 5: right now who are like, this is our year. I'm like,
Speaker 5: I can't, I cannot declare anything like that. I'm just
Speaker 5: I'm just trying to make it to the playoffs back
Speaker 5: to back seasons.
Speaker 1: Which sweeter tho when you finally win as a Mets fan,
Speaker 1: we got to go back to ninety nine, two thousand.
Speaker 3: We don't count that twenty sixteen one game back to back,
Speaker 3: that's bullshit.
Speaker 2: So back to back is a victory. Yo, We're gonna talk.
Speaker 4: To the division, you know, just being you know, any
Speaker 4: sort of consistent. I think that's what they're building now.
Speaker 4: So I'm happy about that.
Speaker 2: I uh, my daughter. I know you got kids.
Speaker 3: My daughter is seven and she's like, dad, when was
Speaker 3: the last time the Mets won the championship? And I'm like, buddy,
Speaker 3: it's fucking been a long time.
Speaker 2: And here's a.
Speaker 3: Question for you, being you know, you're a New Yorker.
Speaker 3: I'm out here in La. All my kids friends are
Speaker 3: Dodgers fans. My daughter went to Hello Kiddy Night the
Speaker 3: other night with her friends and came back with a
Speaker 3: Dodger's hat.
Speaker 2: Didn't show hey hit a bomb? That man, show hey
Speaker 2: hit a bomb?
Speaker 4: And my kids this is how it happens, all of
Speaker 4: a sudden, you got My.
Speaker 3: Kids are like Dad, we like the Mets, But is
Speaker 3: it okay if we like the Dodgers too. My son
Speaker 3: is five and he's like dad, I like Lindor and Otani.
Speaker 5: I'm like, you can't I mean I kind of had
Speaker 5: a rule. I really like went through a mental I
Speaker 5: was when I first had kids. I was like, I
Speaker 5: truly don't know if I'm gonna put this on them, because.
Speaker 4: It was like prior to Cohen and Jets are the Jets.
Speaker 5: And I was like, I don't I don't you know,
Speaker 5: I know, I know we all say it builds character
Speaker 5: and it's gonna be when it finally happens, but like
Speaker 5: it sucks, and it sucks for thirty five years of
Speaker 5: my life, and I was thinking, like, maybe I'm not
Speaker 5: going to put this on them. I just kind of
Speaker 5: had one rule in my mind. I was like, you
Speaker 5: just can't be a Yankees fan. You can't be a
Speaker 5: Patriots fan. Everyone else like, go ahead, right, But then
Speaker 5: once you start, you know, once they become of age
Speaker 5: to really know what's going on. But like the Dodgers
Speaker 5: wouldn't wouldn't bother me except for the fact that, like
Speaker 5: they're the team.
Speaker 4: We have to get over the hump right now, you know.
Speaker 5: But if like if they wanted to be a fan
Speaker 5: of like another team that's on the West Coast or
Speaker 5: in the al or.
Speaker 2: Like the Angels, like fine, love yes, right.
Speaker 5: Root for Mike Trout like that doesn't affect me in
Speaker 5: any way, but it is interesting to like, you know,
Speaker 5: I don't want to curse you with this life and.
Speaker 4: Hopefully it's different though hopefully for them.
Speaker 5: You know, it's like if Steve Cohen turns this thing aroud,
Speaker 5: they grow up like we've known nothing but winning.
Speaker 4: But you know, a long way to go before we
Speaker 4: can cross that room, which.
Speaker 2: Helps with the confidence a little bit.
Speaker 1: Seriously, before you get into coaching kids, I think you
Speaker 1: have a question, Rich. I did want to ask you
Speaker 1: the age old debate that we have all the time
Speaker 1: as a Yankees and Mets fan Keith Hernandez or Donnie Baseball,
Speaker 1: don Manningley and why were you a big Keith kid
Speaker 1: growing up?
Speaker 5: I mean, it's funny again, I was so young in
Speaker 5: the eighties that like I think of Keith, I'm a
Speaker 5: big Keith guys in the booth. Yeah, I've seen his highlights.
Speaker 5: I know what he meant. He was awesome. Everyone from
Speaker 5: that eighty sixteen in the eighties was like, you know,
Speaker 5: baseball lore. But I think of him as just like
Speaker 5: this unbelievable, hilarious, ridiculous broadcaster as far as baseball goes.
Speaker 4: I mean they're both. They're actually probably very comparable. I
Speaker 4: feel like Keith's glove was like out of this.
Speaker 2: World, Oh my god, so comparable. Yeah, he had eleven
Speaker 2: gold gloves, Manningly had nine. Right, Yeah, they go back
Speaker 2: and forth.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and and like maddingly, I don't I hate every
Speaker 5: Yankee with like the fire of a thousand sons. Haus
Speaker 5: maddingly missed the dynasty, like just missed it, you know.
Speaker 5: They a and then he retires right before ninety six.
Speaker 5: I don't hate him as much, so I'm like, it's
Speaker 5: one guy I could maybe give some props to the
Speaker 5: rest of them I hate with every fiber of my being.
Speaker 3: So it's so crazy how close their stats are though.
Speaker 3: Yeah even yeah, yeah, Kevin, uh, we follow you. We
Speaker 3: love what you do. I want to talk about your
Speaker 3: your new alcohol in a second, because that's that's pretty
Speaker 3: fucking cool.
Speaker 2: I'm a big fan of what you're doing there be.
Speaker 3: But I gotta ask you about the kids sports scene, because,
Speaker 3: like I said, I have a seven year old and
Speaker 3: a five year old.
Speaker 2: I see your beautiful daughter and your son. You're involved the.
Speaker 3: Time, it takes, the commitment, the traveling, everything involved and I.
Speaker 2: Saw you you had your kid. He played up a
Speaker 2: level and he finally got his first double.
Speaker 3: I saw that clip, like talk about the emotions of
Speaker 3: fucking not only parenting and coaching.
Speaker 2: It's a it's a it's a trip.
Speaker 4: Huh, dude, it's it's more. It means more to me
Speaker 4: than I think to them, they're.
Speaker 5: Just like fun, They're doing their activities and I'm like
Speaker 5: on the sidelines dying.
Speaker 4: Of you know, I'm so nervous.
Speaker 5: Then what I've learned, I've learned a few things. The
Speaker 5: baseball team he plays for is the west Chester Giants.
Speaker 5: They are unbelievable. Like they have this indoor facility that
Speaker 5: they can go to and these professional coaches and they
Speaker 5: win championships. They have three different alternate uniforms and like
Speaker 5: all this walk up music, the whole nine, right, And
Speaker 5: you would think, at least I thought those are going
Speaker 5: to be the teams that they take it too seriously
Speaker 5: and that the coaches are crazy and then it's not fun.
Speaker 5: And I've learned it's the total opposite. Those guys are
Speaker 5: awesome and they take it like appropriately serious, but they're
Speaker 5: also having a good.
Speaker 4: Time and they're teaching.
Speaker 5: It's like the wrec dads and the families of the
Speaker 5: other teams that I find to be way worse where
Speaker 5: there are people taking it too seriously.
Speaker 4: We were playing flag football against the guy the other day.
Speaker 4: He was making a kid play in a boot.
Speaker 5: I was like, you're gonna do like irreparable damage this
Speaker 5: guy and he's grab another kid by the back of
Speaker 5: his neck, and like I was like this. You know,
Speaker 5: I cannot stand the people who get too serious about it.
Speaker 5: But then there are moments where I'm like ready to
Speaker 5: argue with an umpire or like you know, I'm like, all,
Speaker 5: I gotta relax.
Speaker 2: The parents are always the problem.
Speaker 1: Do you ever get any flak from the opposing parents
Speaker 1: because they know who you are, they watch your videos?
Speaker 1: Do you get any people coming up to you about that?
Speaker 4: I'll tell you.
Speaker 5: So, my daughter plays on a basketball team. My daughter
Speaker 5: was like a gymnastics dance kind of girl, like she
Speaker 5: was doing the quote unquote girls sports if you will,
Speaker 5: and then she was like, I want to play hoops,
Speaker 5: and I was like, let's do it. She turns out
Speaker 5: to be like great at basketball, joins the coyo team.
Speaker 5: And there's this girl, her name is Isabella. I think
Speaker 5: she might legitimately be the best third grade basketball players.
Speaker 2: Nice.
Speaker 5: He plays for the Gauchos with the boys. She pays
Speaker 5: aau gaucho boys with the boy so she's like lights out.
Speaker 5: And I made a video about her. They won the championship.
Speaker 5: She had like twenty five points in the championships, like
Speaker 5: dribbled through the legs behind the back. It's like watching
Speaker 5: an N one tour. And I made a video about her.
Speaker 5: And we had a game the other day and as
Speaker 5: we walked in, an opposing mom like noticed me and said, uh,
Speaker 5: that's number twelve, And that was the girl was talking about.
Speaker 5: She goes number twelve, huh, And I was like, yeah,
Speaker 5: it's kind of weird, and she goes, we're coming for you,
Speaker 5: and I.
Speaker 4: Just went like yeah, and we blew their doors off.
Speaker 4: We won like two and four or whatever.
Speaker 2: It was nice.
Speaker 5: Nice.
Speaker 4: That's the only time I've really had anybody.
Speaker 5: But it's always a little dicey, like like my daughter
Speaker 5: is in a dance on a dance team and they
Speaker 5: got robbed.
Speaker 2: She got robbed. Recently. I saw that dad.
Speaker 4: Dude, that was the most I've ever been.
Speaker 2: Dude.
Speaker 5: The girl who won, all the girls who won their
Speaker 5: mom was running the talent show, and I was like,
Speaker 5: this is crazy, but the dance team does this. Uh
Speaker 5: you know, you got to go door to door and
Speaker 5: sell popcorn to raise money. And it was like a
Speaker 5: lot of you know, they were They asked her for
Speaker 5: like a thousand bucks.
Speaker 4: It wasn't like chump change.
Speaker 5: And I made a video being like I kind of
Speaker 5: hate this fundraising stuff, and that made its way back
Speaker 5: to the dance teacher and I get a text being like,
Speaker 5: you don't have to participate, you can just write a check.
Speaker 5: And I was like, all right, I'm sorry. I'm just
Speaker 5: being an idiot. I'm an asshole on the internet. That's
Speaker 5: what I do to make money.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there are times I'm like, yeah, if I forget
Speaker 3: when we say parents could hear, that's what I know. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you know what one last thing about the kids coaching.
Speaker 3: You said the walk up music, the nice fields. I'm
Speaker 3: the I'm the coach. I'm the guy dragging the field,
Speaker 3: lining ahead of time. And someone's like, who did that
Speaker 3: when you were a kid. I'm like, I think we
Speaker 3: just played on shitty field. I don't remember it that, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I mean I don't. I mean I don't want to
Speaker 3: sound like an old guy, but I mean like there
Speaker 3: was I don't remember, like a dad raking the field,
Speaker 3: like we're at Chase Stadium or something.
Speaker 1: In the sam line was spare tire for second making.
Speaker 3: You remember someone lining the field? The chalk was like
Speaker 3: maybe a month ago when I played, Like.
Speaker 5: Do you remember like my teams used to have like
Speaker 5: a bag of bats that were just like a hunk
Speaker 5: of metal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, there were bats from the seventies.
Speaker 5: Yeah, with just like a regular like rubber rubber. Yes, yes,
Speaker 5: And now these kids are they have like legitimately four
Speaker 5: hundred dollars back. So I'm like, you, guys, you don't
Speaker 5: even know what balls and strikes are yet you're swinging
Speaker 5: a five hundred dollars bat.
Speaker 4: It's insane.
Speaker 3: It's so funny you would say that because when they
Speaker 3: say each kid should bring their own bad I'm like,
Speaker 3: when I was a kid, I don't think I had
Speaker 3: my own bat. I just used like the team bat,
Speaker 3: like your own bad remember getting I actually bought it
Speaker 3: on eBay last month.
Speaker 4: I remember. I have a core memory of we were
Speaker 4: at like the Sporting good store. There was this.
Speaker 5: Beautiful graphite Eastern bat it was black and blue, and
Speaker 5: I wanted it, and my mom was like, no, it's
Speaker 5: too expensive, we're not going to get it. I went
Speaker 5: home all disappointed. The next day, I come home from
Speaker 5: school and she had bought it for me, and it's
Speaker 5: like seared into my mind. I found it on eBay
Speaker 5: and I bought it just to have it. But that
Speaker 5: was like when I got my own bat. It was
Speaker 5: like a thing because I was using the hunk of
Speaker 5: metal that.
Speaker 4: The team provides exactly now.
Speaker 5: It's like kids have their batting practice bat, their game bat,
Speaker 5: their tournament bat.
Speaker 2: Or you're so right, a torpedo bad.
Speaker 3: Not to sound like old guys, but even like my
Speaker 3: five year old son has a home and away jersey
Speaker 3: and a warm up jersey three.
Speaker 4: I know years, and that's just a racket that's he
Speaker 4: does that.
Speaker 5: I'm like, I get the value back because they really
Speaker 5: are good coaches and all that, so that I don't
Speaker 5: know mind.
Speaker 4: It's the other ship that drives me crazy.
Speaker 1: Speaking of bats, and by the way, I had the
Speaker 1: Eastern Big Barrel and the Black Magic and all those
Speaker 1: you peaked at twelve, though twelve sitting bombs with those
Speaker 1: Hey is portantly serious about the torpedo bats.
Speaker 2: Have you talked to him about this? Do you think
Speaker 2: they're illegal?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 2: Why does he why.
Speaker 1: That's such a hard Like I love his stuff and
Speaker 1: everything he talks about. That's the one thing I'm like,
Speaker 1: is he serious about this?
Speaker 5: Well, there's two things, and I'm in the same boat
Speaker 5: with this. First one, the Yankees did it first, Okay,
Speaker 5: so that's if the Twins did it, I wouldn't give
Speaker 5: a ship. The Yankees do it first. I need you,
Speaker 5: and that's how it works. And the second thing is
Speaker 5: he does love his high school careers triple Crown, and
Speaker 5: so this was posed as like, you know, Jazz Chisholm
Speaker 5: needs this because he's getting sawed off because he you know,
Speaker 5: he doesn't have fast enough hands, and he's like, I
Speaker 5: wouldn't need that, you.
Speaker 4: Know, I'm a star. So that's it always goes back
Speaker 4: to ego with Dave. That's all. That's all that together.
Speaker 3: That's why Keith is better than Don Mattingly because he
Speaker 3: calls him Chez jiss.
Speaker 2: He always just he always missed.
Speaker 1: I know, Hey, we're here with Kevin Clancy KFC, the
Speaker 1: One minute Man. And one of my favorite things that
Speaker 1: you do is your conspiracy stuff, So yeah, get your
Speaker 1: tinfoil hat.
Speaker 4: I really do.
Speaker 1: I love it, man, I get so excited when it's
Speaker 1: something different. I'm like, all right, let's get into it
Speaker 1: because I love it and I want to get.
Speaker 2: Me on the Pyramids.
Speaker 3: Brode, you had everybody.
Speaker 1: And you you took it back and I was like, oh, man,
Speaker 1: I went and told everybody because of you, So I.
Speaker 2: Want to talk about that.
Speaker 4: I had told that one.
Speaker 5: I was like, yeah, there's a lot of people out
Speaker 5: there talking about what's beneath the pyramids because of me,
Speaker 5: and apparently it's all bullshit.
Speaker 1: Dude, I'm like, you tru believe it. I still believe
Speaker 1: it now. I heard there's tobble roan under there. I
Speaker 1: don't know what's going on. So I want to know
Speaker 1: your thoughts about that when it's wrong or when you
Speaker 1: when you give false information and your favorite conspiracy man,
Speaker 1: like your favorite and like how much fun do you
Speaker 1: have doing that?
Speaker 2: Tell us about it.
Speaker 5: The thing about it is like, obviously a lot of
Speaker 5: them are tongue in cheek, but I always like kind
Speaker 5: of believe, you know, like some of these things are silly,
Speaker 5: but I'm like it could be, you know, I believe.
Speaker 5: And the thing about him is once they're they're crazy
Speaker 5: conspiracies until these things get proven true, and then you're like,
Speaker 5: oh yeah, so there have been you know Epstein and
Speaker 5: mk ulture. There's totally things that were totally far fetched
Speaker 5: that just became true.
Speaker 4: So you never really know.
Speaker 5: As far as the misinformation stuff, Like I don't ever
Speaker 5: purport myself to be a journalist, so when I'm wrong,
Speaker 5: I'm just like you idiots believes me.
Speaker 4: I'm literally wearing aoil hat.
Speaker 2: We've all been there. I can you know.
Speaker 3: We bust his ball still to this day. He came
Speaker 3: in one day and he's like, Bro, there's a guy
Speaker 3: that could run on water. It's called liquid engineering, liquid mountaineer.
Speaker 3: I forget, here's a thinking it was a guy running
Speaker 3: across a lake. And I'm like, are you out of
Speaker 3: your mondoes?
Speaker 4: I I can't believe that.
Speaker 2: I actually believe it.
Speaker 1: But you know, sometimes you're just in the moment you
Speaker 1: get got and dude, you had us with the Pyramids.
Speaker 2: I was so pumped.
Speaker 4: They had me.
Speaker 5: I'm like, kind of man, It's like, so you're just
Speaker 5: telling me that was totally made up?
Speaker 2: Like I'm still love it.
Speaker 5: I still think now that I have a conspiracy that
Speaker 5: the people disproving it are, they're the ones lions.
Speaker 4: So I'm going to circles over here.
Speaker 5: Now my U the most like this is not mine
Speaker 5: by any means. Many people have thought about this, but
Speaker 5: you know, the did we land on the moon or not?
Speaker 5: Is a big one, and I used to kind of
Speaker 5: beat that drum. And there's a couple other theories. The
Speaker 5: moon is a hollow sphere, that's a spaceship, all these
Speaker 5: crazy things, and I used to there was a time
Speaker 5: where I was really you know, sometimes believing and sometimes
Speaker 5: making fun of it, but I was talking about him
Speaker 5: a lot. And this is back when we had a
Speaker 5: serious channel and we got we got offered to interview
Speaker 5: the last astronaut who ever walked on the moon, and
Speaker 5: I was I love space and all this shit, so
Speaker 5: I was like, definitely gonna do the interview. But I
Speaker 5: also have been this anti moon landing guy, so I
Speaker 5: had I couldn't just pretend I wasn't, So I just
Speaker 5: asually was like, so, what would you say to someone
Speaker 5: who might think that that was fake? And he was like,
Speaker 5: I would say that you're the dumbest person alive. And
Speaker 5: I was like, yeah, yeah, totally.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, KFC, Kevin Clancy.
Speaker 2: We're big fans what you do. Hashtag Three Bean Gang.
Speaker 4: Here here it is.
Speaker 3: Let me tell you, let's let's let's see what we
Speaker 3: got going on here. I'm a big fan of what
Speaker 3: you do, and I love how all your fans and
Speaker 3: supporters tag you every time they were having a cocktail
Speaker 3: with their wife or girlfriend.
Speaker 2: It's great.
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, this this is the espresso martini.
Speaker 2: I was.
Speaker 5: I've been drinking espresso martini since probably when I was
Speaker 5: starting barstool, like two thousand and nine, twenty ten. At
Speaker 5: that point, it was not a popular drink. It was
Speaker 5: kind of it still is to this day, but at
Speaker 5: that point it was a really girly drink. It was
Speaker 5: hard to find. Bartenders wouldn't know how to make it.
Speaker 5: They didn't know, they didn't have an espresso machine, all
Speaker 5: this stuff. And I loved it, and the few people
Speaker 5: out there who also loved it. It was kind of
Speaker 5: like our you know, a little badge of honor, our
Speaker 5: little club, the Three Bean Gang. You always put these
Speaker 5: three coffee beans in as a garnish means health, wealth,
Speaker 5: and happiness.
Speaker 4: It's a chost you do and.
Speaker 5: So for the last ten years it was really just
Speaker 5: you know, take pictures of your martini, send it to me,
Speaker 5: use the hashtag. I never really planned on doing anything,
Speaker 5: but then the drink became so popular. I got approached
Speaker 5: by Sazarak was like an alcohol distributor.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 5: These guys are like literally chemical engineers who came up
Speaker 5: with this all pre bottled, ready to drink, and you
Speaker 5: shake it up in a shaker and it like the
Speaker 5: thing about the martini is you need like the foam.
Speaker 5: It's got to have the froth and all that, and
Speaker 5: that's you could never make that at home that needed
Speaker 5: you know, at a bartend or a restaurant would do
Speaker 5: that for you. So now I'm a big homebody. I
Speaker 5: like to be on the couch. I like watching the
Speaker 5: ball game. I like to be here, and now I
Speaker 5: can have my favorite cocktail with this midnight bean. It
Speaker 5: has the right flavor, it has the right you know,
Speaker 5: consistency nineteen ninety nine a bottle. It's like, you know,
Speaker 5: the the cosso one martini.
Speaker 2: How do you beat that?
Speaker 5: When we first went down the road, I was like,
Speaker 5: this is just going to be a higher end alcohol,
Speaker 5: and it is what it is it's going to be
Speaker 5: like an eighty nine dollars bottle because you're thinking you're
Speaker 5: getting like four or five martinis that's like one hundred bucks.
Speaker 5: And I was like, I'm gonna get killed by it,
Speaker 5: but like, the people who like it are gonna like it.
Speaker 5: And then they were like, I was like, you know,
Speaker 5: we go through it all. It tastes great, looks great.
Speaker 4: I was like, what's the damage and they were like,
Speaker 4: nineteen ninety nine and I was like.
Speaker 5: American dollars, what, Like, that's fit. So it's it's rolling
Speaker 5: out now. It will be available coast to coast in
Speaker 5: pretty much all liquor stores, restaurants, bars that want it.
Speaker 5: So I'm at the phase right now of trying to
Speaker 5: garner up the hype for people to ask for it
Speaker 5: if they don't have it at your local spots, to
Speaker 5: ask them to stock it. And the way it works is,
Speaker 5: you know, state by state, it kind of gets approved
Speaker 5: and eventually it'll be a widespread nationwide release.
Speaker 4: So we're we're in.
Speaker 5: The process of really getting it out there. Midnight bean
Speaker 5: is I think, you know for espresso martini drinkers it is.
Speaker 4: I wouldn't do it.
Speaker 5: I'm at the point of my career, I don't really
Speaker 5: endorse anything that I don't really mean, and so like
Speaker 5: it tastes right, it looks right, it's all good. So yeah,
Speaker 5: I'm pretty pumped about it. It's it's my first alcohol
Speaker 5: that I like put my name on, really and I
Speaker 5: think it's gonna.
Speaker 4: Be a hit.
Speaker 2: Well, dude, congrats. First of all, ask your liquor store
Speaker 2: about this. Yeah, I want we got that fight night
Speaker 2: coming up.
Speaker 1: We were just talking about a second May second, man,
Speaker 1: can you get a bottle by May?
Speaker 4: Second? Me the address I'll send you.
Speaker 5: Guys were sending out these influencer packs but then a
Speaker 5: shaker and a you know, a couple accessories.
Speaker 4: I'd love to hook you guys up.
Speaker 2: I love it, man, and congrats on that. That's gonna
Speaker 2: be a cool thing for you.
Speaker 3: Also, just because like you know, you've you've accomplished a
Speaker 3: hell of a lot Kevin. But to be like, yeah,
Speaker 3: I have it. I decided I drink this drink and
Speaker 3: now I bottled it and I teamed up. That's fucking cool.
Speaker 5: No, And we've done like a we we've endured, like
Speaker 5: we've we've had ad reads for other alcohols and whatever.
Speaker 5: And some of them, like a nice whiskey was a
Speaker 5: good fit. We also did like a kind of like
Speaker 5: a four local drink, pirate water.
Speaker 4: It was not a good fit. And now I'm like
Speaker 4: this one, this is the one, Like this is my cocktail.
Speaker 5: Uh. And I know it's kind of been a thing
Speaker 5: with like celebrity alcohol has gone like crazy over the
Speaker 5: last few years, but I.
Speaker 3: Was there was a market for spirits. Man, hopefully this
Speaker 3: is your portnoy uh high. Now, hey, dude, we're all
Speaker 3: behind it. I love me some espresso martini.
