Matt LaRose: they wouldn't They wouldn't let him.
Fuck Off: They're playing the way he, they are basically doing what he did and he's still the perfect like specimen to do it. What a freak of nature.
Matt LaRose: they would They would. He would get a penalty every time he tackled someone for the way he tackled. Literally, the chop.

Matt LaRose: literally
Fuck Off: You may have just, i don't know why he even wore anything.

Fuck Off: They just suspended some dude for hip drop tackles. He's done it like every game.
Matt LaRose: That's, you know, they just, you still, you still get to see good hits because it's bodies colliding with each other. But there was a, there was a grit in football back in the day. That's just not there anymore.
Matt LaRose: You know?
Fuck Off: It is 1,000% not there.
Matt LaRose: They teach you to run through your opponent. You're trying to kill this guy, and that's all gone now.
Fuck Off: Different times, man. People don't even realize it I used to have to drink out of a yellow igloo cooler with everyone else using a metal ladle.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Matt LaRose: Hell yeah.
Fuck Off: That we just would pass around and there was like fucking dirt in it and grass because it was 100 degrees out in double sessions and we're getting yelled at and sometimes you didn't even get your fucking ladle.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, man. That's all gone now.
Fuck Off: So are fucking real men.
Matt LaRose: Like you're, uh, remember talking about her Brooks last week and making them fucking do a bag skate until they, they would never be able to do that. That nowadays he'd get fucking arrested.
Fuck Off: No.
Fuck Off: Bobby Knight finally got fired, and that took years. so
Matt LaRose: That's the dude. He was a college that used to throw the chairs, right?

Matt LaRose: Yeah. Yeah. Is that a Hoosier?
Fuck Off: Yeah, he's a Hoosier.
Matt LaRose: Okay.
Fuck Off: yeah He put some guy up against the wall holding his throat. Some kid, I should say. Then he hit a kid on the sideline.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: and His own player. He was mental.
Matt LaRose: I remember there used to be a couple of coaches like that. Maybe not in basketball, but... I mean, fuck when I remember... I remember when I was a freshman lacrosse.
Matt LaRose: So I'm a freshman in high school. My first year playing lacrosse, we were on the sidelines of a game, completely not paying attention, just fucking off.
Fuck Off: Wax.
Matt LaRose: And my coach literally turned around and took his lacrosse stick and just threw it at our legs. And he was like, pay the fuck attention. We were like, whoa, i' fucking like a metal, it's a metal stick.
Matt LaRose: And he just fucking, was like four of us standing there, just threw it at our legs, like fucking. fucks your legs up and shit but he's like
Fuck Off: um Man, I had fucking coaches. They grab you by the face mask. They drag you over. They slam your head into someone else's fucking helmet.
Matt LaRose: oh yeah
Fuck Off: It's God, man.
Fuck Off: And I was kind of at an area where they were starting to look at things. i mean, we still had double sessions and all that, but.
Fuck Off: Well, no. I mean, people definitely would throw up a lot and go to the hospital.
Matt LaRose: I remember, uh, I remember like the first conditioning test we had to do was like, go run. And I was not running. And, uh, I remember I ran up to my coach and I was like, coach, I'm not really that good for running. I think I might throw up. And he's like, okay.
Matt LaRose: And I was like, yeah. So like, I don't think I'm going to be able to run today. He's like, no, just go chuck it over the fence and then start running again. And I was like, oh yeah, I'm fucked. Yeah.
Fuck Off: Yeah Yeah that's great kid beat it And by the way run your ass home to mom And don't come back tomorrow No

Fuck Off: Oh, the railers. Why do I always call them the ice cats?
Matt LaRose: Yeah. Well, because they used to be the ice cats, but now they're the railers. It's unfortunate because it's, uh, they're a Islanders affiliate. So it's Islanders colors, but,

Fuck Off: That's as close to a Flyers jersey as you can get.
Matt LaRose: No, man, it's Islanders colors, man. Look it.
Matt LaRose: Ah. You would love their regular jerseys because the railers are because of the Worcester railroad. So the, so the fucking railers Jersey, I actually think they're ugly, but you would love them.
Matt LaRose: They're blue and they have like white trim on them. And it's a, it says railers on an arc and then they're front of it. It's just the front of a train.

Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: Oh, yeah. I'm going to be at one of these.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, dude, the railers are where it's at. They got the railer girls when I went with my band cam last, uh, so that we went to the season opener and I told my man cam, I said, my, my man cam is nine years old.
Fuck Off: I'd rail a railer.
Matt LaRose: i said, cam, you're going to be my wingman. All right. We're going to go talk to these railers girls. We're going to see how many numbers and pictures we can get with them. And he was like, he's like, no, no, he didn't want to do it. It was so funny.
Fuck Off: The main fucking Mariners.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. That's so that's who they played with the Mariners. And then I got to tell you now,
Fuck Off: The Adirondack Thunder.
Matt LaRose: I got to tell you.
Fuck Off: The Greensboro Gargoyles? These motherfuckers got some cool-ass names.
Matt LaRose: So the guys from Spittin' Chicklets own are partial owners of the Greensboro Gargoyles. This is their first year.
Fuck Off: Oh, yeah? yeah i'm a big I'm a big Swamp Rabbits fan.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. So they're playing...
Fuck Off: Do they play the Swamp Rabbits?
Matt LaRose: Are the Swamp Rabbits... What league are there they?
Fuck Off: Greenville. i don't I don't know what league they are.
Matt LaRose: if Because that's this is the... These are the ECHL. So it's the East Coast Hockey League. So they could...
Fuck Off: they're They're on the East Coast.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, so they could be. I'm not sure. But our listeners are getting a fucking an education in local hockey, local New England hockey. Because i actually, i just saw two, by the way, breaking news, the Springfield Falcons out of Springfield, Massachusetts, also in – or maybe they're the AHL.
Fuck Off: Oh, and Carolina.
Fuck Off: Swamp rabbits.
Matt LaRose: They're the AHL. But either way, they just signed fucking Milan Lucic to a PTO.
Fuck Off: the fuck does that mean?
Matt LaRose: It's ah like a tryout.
Fuck Off: What do you mean?
Matt LaRose: He can try. Like they signed Lucic and if they, if he, yeah, they're like the AHL.
Fuck Off: They were a minor league team.
Matt LaRose: They're like the Providence Bruins.
Fuck Off: The fuck is he going there for?
Matt LaRose: Because he can't get a job in the show anymore. He's making his way back. We got to make our way back. We're getting back in, you know, couple more years to play.
Fuck Off: ah think these guys play some of the same people.
Matt LaRose: Just look up a Swamp Rabbit League.
Fuck Off: I guess I could do that.
Fuck Off: Swamp Rabbit Hockey League.
Matt LaRose: Ooh, an affiliate of the LA Kings.
Fuck Off: ECHL.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, so they probably play the Swamp Rabbits at some point.
Fuck Off: Oh, snap.
Matt LaRose: Not on your man, fucking East Coast hockey is where it's fucking at, dude.
Fuck Off: East Coast.
Matt LaRose: Holy shit. You know?
Fuck Off: Swamp Rabbit City.
Matt LaRose: it's like I got to tell you, though, i don't want to sell you i'm not I don't want you to think that I'm selling your product here. Your own Worcester Railers, they're having a tough start to the season. I think they may have only won one or two games out of roughly eight or ten.
Fuck Off: Is this those dumpster guys that came from Connecticut?
Matt LaRose: No. that's that don't remember what league that was, but they're done. So they were originally the Worcester Ice Cats, and that was the we were the AHL affiliate of the St. Louis Blues.
Matt LaRose: And that was when I was a kid. So what was cool was what was cool was we would
Fuck Off: That would be better. like the blues.
Matt LaRose: When my brother and my brother used to love the Aqualad, he used to love the Blues too. And we would watch players in Worcester. And then they would play they would call him up and we'd watch him on TV play for the Blues.
Matt LaRose: And then like you know they would send guys for the Blues. They did a lot more up and down back then between the two leagues. So you would see a lot of the guys that we would go see play in Worcester would be up playing for the Blues and shit like that.
Fuck Off: Those Providence still have the Bruins?
Matt LaRose: So they still have the Providence Bruins. Yeah. And so that was an A, that they were both AHL affiliates. And then the ice cats got sold. And I don't think we had a team for a year or two. And then we got the Worcester sharks and they were the AHL affiliate of the San Jose sharks.
Fuck Off: Mm-hmm.
Matt LaRose: So, and there wasn't as much up and down. And plus like for the couple years that they did that, it was like,
Fuck Off: Mm-hmm.
Matt LaRose: you're a West Coast team and your affiliates on the East Coast.
Fuck Off: as far east as you can get.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, it's like as far as split across as far West and East as you can get. So that died out. And then they got the, it was like no hockey for a year or two. And then the Worcester Railers have been the ECHTL team. And when I went, when we went to fucking opening night, dude, the house was fucking packed.
Matt LaRose: People, ah then they hit me up all the time to try to get me to buy season tickets and fucking, Uh, like they sell like, you know, 10 game packages and shit. And I'm always like, do I, should I fucking grab this?
Matt LaRose: Cause I, I mean, it's really not.
Fuck Off: ah Probably only, how much are they? Like 500 bucks for a year? $18.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. Cause the tickets, I think each tickets like $18 game or something.
Fuck Off: That's highway robbery.
Matt LaRose: It's fucking awesome, man. You know, you know, and then they get, you go to the centrum, they got the big fucking beers in there. I was double fist and fucking Bud lights, buddy. You know was fucking, we had the, me and the boys went, we were having a good time, man.
Matt LaRose: It was the OG Upton crew, me, BMAC, Todd, and BMAC's kid, Cam, who's now a young hockey star.
Fuck Off: Oh, nice.
Matt LaRose: Connor McDavid's his favorite player, so he shoots pucks all day long.
Fuck Off: Really?
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: my um My youngest nephew has now started to play, and he scored not only his first goal the other night after playing for, don't know, two full years.
Matt LaRose: Oh, yeah?
Fuck Off: He also got, not his first, but His first full Gordie Howe hat trick
Matt LaRose: All right.
Fuck Off: um the The game ended it was There was three to two He had the game winning goal Three to two they win Then there's a big fight He ends up on the bottom Coming up with Like four of them He's throwing around on the ice And gets thrown into the um The box And even though the game was over, and then wrote him up so that he can't play the next game.
Matt LaRose: All right.
Matt LaRose: That's awesome.
Fuck Off: So, I don't know. it was We'll see what happens. They were playing down in Bridgewater.
Matt LaRose: They, uh, no, oh yeah i way too far.
Fuck Off: Too far.
Matt LaRose: The, uh, I watched the nine year olds play and they're just at that age now. We're like, and they're like watching hockey. Like, so they're seeing like the aggressiveness and and like the NHL.
Matt LaRose: and then they're going and playing on like a sunday or saturday morning and like and they're like nine-year-old boys which at some point they're gonna start fucking trying to fight each other anyways and shit so now like yeah
Fuck Off: Yeah, you're not supposed to check until you're like, I think it's 11 maybe or 12. Yeah.
Matt LaRose: it's so funny there's there's face mashes and funch is getting thrown and shit it's like not you know It's not a lot of it, but it's like it's it' is every game that I've gone to this year, there's been some kind of face mash or the the boys are starting to get rough with each other.
Fuck Off: Yeah, I've been going for the last like seven, eight years now, and just it's funny to see them develop and then see the other little ones marching through and where they start.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: But the early games, o they were brutal.
Matt LaRose: ah early game i think the early games are awesome because it's just chaos.
Fuck Off: It's just, there's the puck over there. Let's all be on top of it and just the scrum.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: Yeah.
Matt LaRose: And then at some point, the ref picks the the puck up and throws it to the other side, so then all the kids skate over to the other side.
Fuck Off: Yeah, it's <unk> unbelievable.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. Hockey fucking rules, man.
Fuck Off: Speaking of hockey, I saw Mike Arruzzioni last week.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, we talk yep we talked about it.
Fuck Off: Did I talk about this? Fuck yeah, that dude. It's been a big hockey time.
Matt LaRose: Hell yeah, I know you like to say it's football season, but hockey is a good time all year long.
Fuck Off: Big hockey time.
Fuck Off: It is most definitely football season.
Matt LaRose: That's what makes it great.
Fuck Off: Yeah, for you.
Fuck Off: How about the Patriots? I think we've got, they lucked out by the skin of their teeth.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: This fucking kid, he still makes me nervous. He's still doing the things I've been saying. oh I'm not taking anything away from where they are and where the team's doing. I'm just saying you can't really trust the kid to win you a game yet.
Matt LaRose: Hey man, he's a kid and he's a gun slinger.
Fuck Off: can He can lose you one for sure, but to be able to hang on and not blow one, that's a positive.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. But he.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, dude. That's a big, that's a big win.
Fuck Off: I mean, Because they blew one they blew the Pittsburgh game 100%.
Matt LaRose: That's a big test of a game.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: But they're giving up six fucking sacks a week, and that's not really even the Lions' fault. That's his fault. he' He's holding the ball way too long. You either got to get rid of it or run or throw it away.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: And that's still a problem he's trying to figure out defenses. His athleticism is helping him right now. But I think as soon as they –
Fuck Off: The problem is he's got lightning in his arms, so they can't just sit back and like wait because he'll rocket it over their heads still.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: um But yeah, next week's going to be a big test playing Tampa.
Matt LaRose: He's awesome, man.
Fuck Off: They're a mature team with um who feels like they have a shot of doing something in the NFC. And they're, i don't know what, six and two as well. Something like that. Six and three, something like that. Seven and two.
Fuck Off: So they're a good NFC. It'll be a good litmus test to see where we stand up against entry level playoff teams.
Matt LaRose: Pats are seven and two Tampa is six and two. So they have, they've had a bye week.
Fuck Off: Yeah.
Fuck Off: So it'll be an interesting game, but they can't, he cannot do what he's been doing.
Matt LaRose: I think it's great.
Fuck Off: Taking six sacks a game.
Matt LaRose: This.
Fuck Off: He fumbles a lot because of the way he holds the ball. Interceptions are going to happen, but not the one that he just threw to just their whole team.
Matt LaRose: He made sure anybody could catch it. Listen, man, he's he's completing passes no matter what.
Fuck Off: Yeah, look, i I'm excited. I'm cautiously optimistic.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, well, the thing is, he's a young kid, so how much can you trust a young kid to do anything?
Fuck Off: You can't.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, so you just got to fucking hope he does the right thing and understand that he's going to probably do some dumb shit along the way.
Fuck Off: So there were there were some massive fucking trades that were just made. Today was the trade deadline.
Matt LaRose: Oh, yeah. Did the Patriots do it? Because I kept hearing all week that they were the Patriots were gearing up to do some big fucking shit.
Fuck Off: Yeah, well, as far as I know, ah they didn't do shit.
Fuck Off: But the biggest fucking, the biggest trade,
Fuck Off: the Jets traded away Sauce Gardner to the Colts for two number one picks.
Matt LaRose: oh
Fuck Off: Yeah.
Matt LaRose: Wow. Imagine being a number one draft pick and they and then they say you have to go to the Jets and you're like, oh no.
Fuck Off: Yeah, but at least there'll be two of them.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. They can share their misery together.
Fuck Off: Yeah, the Pats didn't do shit, I don't think.
Matt LaRose: Interesting.
Fuck Off: They should have made them.
Matt LaRose: So
Fuck Off: They needed to make a move.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. Well, that's what I kept hearing because they traded away Kyle Duggar whatever. and then i And then I heard that they were make they were stacking up so they could make a huge a huge move.
Matt LaRose: Because they said they had like a fuckload of draft picks and shit too.
Matt LaRose: Pretty crazy because you're right. I would have seen some shit on social media if they made a trade.
Fuck Off: unbelievable.
Matt LaRose: This disappoints you. This is a hot take right now. This is very exciting.
Fuck Off: It's a hot take. It's a hot take because they needed a running back. They needed an edge rusher. They need a linebacker.
Fuck Off: They could use another safety.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, they posted nothing. But an hour ago, they posted that... ah
Matt LaRose: Your boy, Drake May, has tied Tom Brady's franchise record of eight straight games with a 100-plus passer rating. This
Fuck Off: Yeah, he's already broken like two of his records.
Matt LaRose: kid's unreal.
Matt LaRose: Is it true that he's the next Tom Brady? Can we make that claim?
Fuck Off: No.
Matt LaRose: It's exciting, man. It's so funny because, like, a lot of like people that I talked to that haven't really watched football in like the last couple years are like, man, the Patriots are like a really fun team to a fun team to watch. Like a bunch of my buddies that like, we used to always watch football back in the day and don't really now are like back watching the Patriots again.
Fuck Off: Fucking love the Patriots
Matt LaRose: I just love a good, uh, Oh yeah. I just saw that Dustin Poirier got fucking signed a roadhouse too. terrible. These movies are terrible.
Matt LaRose: I mean, good for...
Fuck Off: Awful I just think it's funny that they cut Conor McGregor When?
Matt LaRose: yeah Well, did you know that Conor McGregor found Jesus?
Fuck Off: Yesterday?
Matt LaRose: Like, literally a week ago.
Fuck Off: Is he returning him?
Matt LaRose: He's fully... He's fully... He realized that he was kind of going a little wacky and getting a little bit crazy, and he's devoted himself to Jesus, and he's fucking...
Fuck Off: Yeah, perfect. So he's back on the White House card. No problem.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, he's gonna... He's...
Fuck Off: No, I've got Jesus now.
Matt LaRose: He's back, baby. Who doesn't love ah come to Jesus story, you know? This man turned his life around in a week.
Fuck Off: I don't know why people are still keeping this guy relevant.
Matt LaRose: It's crazy, man.
Fuck Off: He's not relevant.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: He's just not.
Matt LaRose: there
Fuck Off: He's not relevant. It's like, it's like Bert Kreischer, who I've never thought was funny ever interviewing Ronda Rousey.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: She's not relevant.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: Like she was, she broke into, and Khabib's trainer went off the rails and went off on her.
Matt LaRose: Oh, really?
Fuck Off: Yeah. um Saying that essentially, cause she had compared her, you know, like Khabib or something. If he had lost, no one would care. And, They were like, look, all you are is a you're a highlight reel for Holly Holmes.
Fuck Off: When she upset you, you fought a bunch of non-athletic women at a great time.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: you know And that's all the truth.
Matt LaRose: yeah
Fuck Off: She was but she paved the way, period. She should have her respect for that. But I mean, now she's not relevant.
Matt LaRose: And honestly, a lot of her irrelevance is from her because she doesn't like, she just kind of went and did.
Fuck Off: She's just a shitty person. She's not a good representation of your sport.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Matt LaRose: She is a bitch.
Fuck Off: She's not a good representation of your company. She's not a good reputation of anything. She's just a pouty fucking bitch.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: She's a do-nothing bitch.
Matt LaRose: That's why I didn't really get when I heard she was had the, I was I first off, I thought what a fucking weird pairing. to have Burt Kreischer and her do a podcast, but whatever.
Matt LaRose: And then I saw she was talking shit about a bunch of different people and I was like, who cares, man?
Fuck Off: Joe Rogan, yeah, she was talking shit about Joe Rogan
Matt LaRose: Yeah. Yeah. Good for her. and But then my girl bullet piped up and and clapped back.
Fuck Off: She did, she defended Joe It's drama-rama Well
Matt LaRose: You know? Look at this MMA drama. That's so gay. Speaking of more m MMA shit, this what we talked last week or the week before about this big and NBA scandal.
Matt LaRose: But now all of a sudden, all this fucking every day there's more shit coming out about fight fixing. And now three fighters have come out and said they got offered $70,000 to throw a fight and shit like that.
Fuck Off: It's a lot of money. I hope they took it.
Matt LaRose: There's all kinds of... disol
Fuck Off: That's how they get title shots. This is as old as the days long. This is Boxing 101. You gotta fucking, if you wanna play, you gotta pay, and then you get paid.
Fuck Off: That's it. It exists all the time. It's a human element. There are other things at factor. There are big fucking dollars behind all this shit.
Fuck Off: There will always be fixed sports because people always have needs that need to be met for one reason or another.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. And you can make a lot of money really quick.
Fuck Off: Yeah. I mean, raging bull.
Matt LaRose: I've never seen it, but I've heard I should watch it.
Fuck Off: Shut the fuck up. You've still,
Matt LaRose: It's a box. It's a boxing movie, right? With De Niro.
Fuck Off: Oh my God. I can't even talk about this.
Matt LaRose: I think it's on my list on one of my apps. I just haven't watched it yet.
Matt LaRose: Would you like me to move on?
Fuck Off: Yeah.
Matt LaRose: Oh, um, Actually, here we go. I got this as fresh hot off the press. I sent out a bat signal. I said, Richie and I are recording in 10 minutes.
Matt LaRose: And then guess what I got back?
Matt LaRose: Here is the last second movie review from the shitter because I'm here for the team. That's a very important first sentence, Richie.
Fuck Off: very important.
Matt LaRose: the Last second remov movie.
Fuck Off: The Aqua Shitter.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, the aqua turd.
Matt LaRose: what do they What do they call it in Shorzy? The Aqua Dump?
Fuck Off: Yeah. the yeah I just started watching that again the first season, actually.
Matt LaRose: ah The first season is so good. ah the only movie The only movie I watched this past week was Mission Impossible, The Final Reckoning.
Fuck Off: ah
Matt LaRose: I don't know if he included this, but he did text me and said, I'm watching the last Mission Impossible. I said, great. He said... how many more do you have to watch? I said, I don't know. I lost count because everybody kept telling me they were going to get better.
Fuck Off: I don't know all of them.
Matt LaRose: And that hasn't happened yet. Anyways, you know what this is? Tom Cruise saying goodbye to one of the best movie franchises of all time.
Matt LaRose: I disagree. Was he able to land the plane? See what I did there overall? Yes, he did. Is it the best Mr. Impossible movie? No, it's not. But that's like having Pete just okay pizza.
Matt LaRose: it's still pizza. The stunts are amazing, the acting is superb, and the script was okay. At times it felt like they were trying to cram a lot into a movie with a two-hour and 49-minute runtime.
Matt LaRose: But then they also spent a lot of time catching you up on what has happened over the last six movies. movies Some scenes were a little drawn out while others were a little rushed, so clearly there were some pacing issues.
Matt LaRose: This is the most important important important part right here Chung-mi loved the return of a minor character from the very first movie, which was pretty cool to see. Overall, not bad.
Matt LaRose: We both now want to go back and watch all seven movies back-to-back for the ultimate viewing. now Now, like Ghost Protocol, let's hope I get off the throne with a ghost wipe. Later, boys.
Fuck Off: Ghost Protocol is great.
Matt LaRose: That was a good movie review.
Fuck Off: It was a great movie review.
Matt LaRose: Chungmi is like your roommate where if they they give seals of approvals to mostly only actually really good movies.
Fuck Off: It's a great franchise. And you can't look at the franchise as a whole if you have one or two kind of shitty ones in it, especially if there are seven.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, I mean, that's how I...
Fuck Off: It's kind of like the Fast and the Furious.
Matt LaRose: ah You just took the word you took the words right out of my mouth.
Fuck Off: The first Fast and Furious was good.
Matt LaRose: Hell yeah.
Fuck Off: And then the next four weren't.
Matt LaRose: Tokyo drift is awesome.
Fuck Off: It's terrible.
Matt LaRose: It's totally underrated.
Fuck Off: and The only thing that's great about Tokyo Drift are those little Asian girls in those miniskirts that are fucking flipping that flag to let them start that race.
Matt LaRose: You got.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Matt LaRose: You bet pal.
Fuck Off: Outside of that, terrible.
Fuck Off: But Tom Cruise, man, the guy doesn't make a bad movie.
Matt LaRose: It's pretty unbelievable.
Matt LaRose: He's like Arnold Schwarzenegger but smaller.
Fuck Off: Yeah, I watched Running Man the other day.
Matt LaRose: I fucking love running this. One of my favorite Arnold Schwarzenegger movies.
Fuck Off: Yeah, by the way, when you see it again for the first time like in 20-something years, it's terrible.
Matt LaRose: No, because I didn't...
Fuck Off: like Like the props and shit, the computer was like, looked like one of those calculators that you hit when you're doing your books back in the Yeah.
Matt LaRose: Oh, yeah. I love that shit.

Fuck Off: yeah
Matt LaRose: I love that shit. Or like when I watched The Shining last week. It's like I love that old school movie shit. you know When they actually had to make shit. Now they can just draw everything on CGI and go on AI.
Fuck Off: Everything sucks.
Fuck Off: Everything sucks.
Matt LaRose: I watched two things. I watched Gone Girl because I just couldn't help myself because we had we had been talking oh we' had been talking about her and then I was like, I got to watch it.
Fuck Off: Rosa Moon Pike. We just talked about her.
Fuck Off: Gotta watch it.
Matt LaRose: I'd love to kill that bitch.
Fuck Off: Dirty whore.
Matt LaRose: And then I watched...
Fuck Off: Hmm.
Matt LaRose: So, I haven't seen the movie Monster before. Have you seen the movie Monster? With Charlize Theron?
Fuck Off: I have with Charlize Theron and one of my other favorite little sloppy Christina Richie.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, oh yeah, I forgot she's in that.
Fuck Off: Oh yeah. It was so one of one of her better showings.
Matt LaRose: and so I haven't seen that movie, but on Netflix, they just dropped a documentary about that woman. Her name is I, Aileen something.
Fuck Off: Aileen. Yeah.

Matt LaRose: So I don't know if I can recommend it. It's just something that I watched, but you know,
Fuck Off: Hmm.
Fuck Off: I like documentaries. It's not bad.
Matt LaRose: well, that's the thing is it's, you know, if you like documentaries and you know, it's about a fucked up person from Florida. So I guess if you like tiger King, it's kind of like that, but with more rape somehow.
Fuck Off: Hmm.
Matt LaRose: So, you know, that part makes it not fun. But also, you know, I like a good character study. I think that's why I enjoy the Silence of the Lambs and the Red Dragon and all the movies we talked about last week.
Matt LaRose: You know?
Fuck Off: What did I watch? I just watched Oh, I watched Black Rabbit With Jason Bateman It's on Netflix, pretty good And I watched The Diplomat Again, season There is nothing good to watch

Matt LaRose: You know?
Fuck Off: I was looking at my list. I've gone back to all foreign movies.
Matt LaRose: I'll tell you, they did make a big announcement yesterday that the next Godzilla movie is Godzilla Minus Zero, which I'm very excited. Obviously, the sequel to Godzilla Minus One, so they're doing it the correct way Toho from Japan are making a Godzilla movie and they don't fuck up, man.
Fuck Off: Nah, it was great.
Matt LaRose: They make good-ass Godzilla movies.
Fuck Off: Let's see what happens. Kind of like Drake May.
Matt LaRose: I...
Fuck Off: I'm cautiously optimistic.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. I can't deal with Hollywood American Godzilla movies where he's befriending human beings and we're going on pre-says.
Fuck Off: Hollywood sucks. It's filled with fucking douchebags.
Matt LaRose: It's fucking...
Fuck Off: Homos.
Matt LaRose: They just are ruining everything.
Matt LaRose: Why?
Fuck Off: Everybody's ruining everything. You want to know why?
Matt LaRose: why
Fuck Off: We let them think and speak for themselves, and they can't do that because they never learned how to think for themselves.
Fuck Off: So it's painful whenever they have to go say anything, do anything, talk about anything, think they're equivalent in some stupid manner.
Fuck Off: Just in general terms I'm talking.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, that's beautiful.
Fuck Off: Yeah.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, I feel like we did it to ourselves.
Fuck Off: Absolutely we did it to ourselves I'll tell you one person who would be very disappointed in the state of our current country And that's the great, late great Fillmore Slim Who always kept his motherfucking pimp hands strong

Matt LaRose: Well, this weekend is the annual, very exciting, very technical, very difficult rally Japan.
Fuck Off: I do, for sure.
Fuck Off: Rally Japan up the up Mount Fuji?
Matt LaRose: They don't go up Mount Fuji. That would be awesome. But rally Japan is a, is a tarmac rally that is, they say it's the most technical rally either on the, on the entire championship.
Fuck Off: Do you believe that?
Matt LaRose: Well, Here's the thing. It's very narrow roads in Japan. They have big drainage ditches on the side of ah last year on the last stage. oitanic One of the best drivers in the, uh, WRC one class, former champion was winning the rally had literally one corner to go and hung the ass end off the road too much and hit a drainage ditch that had like a, like a stanchion in it and just flip the car over like eight times and lost the rally on the last corner.
Matt LaRose: And like,
Fuck Off: He lost it.
Matt LaRose: the couple years ago, there was one corner where, ah it's like a super sharp twisty mountain road with just a drop off on each side with like a river.
Fuck Off: Mount Fuji?
Matt LaRose: was pretty, it was, it was pretty much Mount Fuji. And this, one of the Fords went flying off and crashes car into a ravine and it was parked there and they had to leave it there until all the other cars went by before they could tow it out.
Matt LaRose: And then like two cars later, ah Takamoto Katsuda, the local Japanese driver, went off in the same exact corner and landed his car on top of the other car inside the ravine.
Matt LaRose: It was like...
Fuck Off: yeah That's cool.
Matt LaRose: but And Rally Japan is almost also a very picturesque and scenic rally.
Fuck Off: I like that.
Matt LaRose: Now is the autumn months in Japan, so there's a lot of...
Fuck Off: I do like the autumn.
Matt LaRose: you know And that also creates a problem on the stages because the corners get due in the morning. it may so It may rain one of the days, and then
Fuck Off: Could be fall. You could slip on one of those leaves.
Matt LaRose: is leave There's all kinds of leaves, all kinds of pine needles.
Fuck Off: and Those are slick.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, man. It's a big, it's a very exciting rally.
Fuck Off: So that's this weekend in Japan.
Matt LaRose: That's this weekend in Japan, Rally Japan.
Fuck Off: Do I get an update? Uh-huh.
Matt LaRose: Oh, you'll be getting updates. I'm very excited because they always, the shakedown, which is the day before the rally, they do a stage that everybody gets to hit it and you get to like test the car.
Matt LaRose: And ah that's always free on YouTube. The WRC puts it up for free, but it's always like at like two o'clock in the morning or whatever. But because they're in Japan, it's ah tomorrow night. I didn't see the tomorrow or Thursday night. I think it's Thursday night at seven o'clock our time PM.
Matt LaRose: So I'm very excited, very excited for that.
Fuck Off: Oh, that's good.
Matt LaRose: I'm going to watch the shakedown live of rally Japan. And then it's a four day rally. It goes Friday, Saturday, Sunday into that too. So, Thursday being the shakedown, then Friday, Saturday, Sunday. so
Fuck Off: So when's the actual race? Is it?
Matt LaRose: So the actual stages will start Friday. And then they'll race all day Friday. They'll race all day Saturday. And then they'll race half a day on Sunday.
Fuck Off: So each day does count for the entire race.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. Each day they do, like the first day they'll do, like, eight or 10 stages. And then the second day they'll do like 10 or 12 stages.
Matt LaRose: And then the last like Sunday, they'll do like four stages and they have to transit on the road between it's not the same stage. Every time they rerun some stages, but you have to go hit the stage, not fuck your car up and then drive to the next stage, which can be hundreds of kilometers away, you know?
Fuck Off: In your own car?
Matt LaRose: Yeah, you go drive the rally car on the road with all the other cars to the stage.
Fuck Off: No way.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, dude, that's why rally is so cool, man. Even when I go to the rally races up in Maine, you'll be driving from one stage to the other to watch it, and there's rally cars driving next to you on the highway driving to the next stage.
Matt LaRose: It's fucking awesome.
Fuck Off: Yeah, that's cool.
Matt LaRose: One time I drove right behind Travis Pastrana, you know.
Fuck Off: Really?
Matt LaRose: It's fucking cool, man. They're fucking insane cars. You can walk right up to them and look at them and shit there. Rally is the coolest sport.
Matt LaRose: So Rally Japan this week. It's very exciting, by the way, too, because the championship is – there are two rallies left in the season, and the championship is not decided. The top – there's three – yeah, the first the guy in first place has second and third are tied with each other, and the first place guy has like 18 more points than him.
Fuck Off: Oh, it's up in the air. every Every race matters.
Matt LaRose: And what's exciting is anything can happen with rally Japan this weekend. And then the final rally of the season is a brand new rally that they've never done before. They're doing a rally Saudi Arabia for the very last rally. So.
Matt LaRose: anything can happen there. Cause they're, they said it's, they're going to, it's going to like driving on like bars. They're going through like the fucking desert and shit like that.
Fuck Off: Yeah, their shit's gonna die.
Matt LaRose: And rally cars. And none of the, none of this, nobody has ever, it's a brand new rally for everybody.
Fuck Off: Hmm.
Matt LaRose: So there's no, they don't have like pace notes that they can look at from last year or anything like that. They don't even have pace notes. They've never driven the roads, nothing. So it's pretty cool.
Fuck Off: Speaking of great sports in Japan, the Dodgers won the World Series.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. Is it weird that somehow the Dodgers are like and like a team that I care about now because they have three awesome Japanese dudes on there?
Fuck Off: They are pretty fucking good, and they're already picked to win next year, three years in a row.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. Imagine being from Canada, number one. And then of number two, imagine being from Toronto and you just keep getting fucked by the Maple Leafs every single year. And then you're like, this is going to be our year in the World Series. And then you get fucked in the World Series too. Right.
Fuck Off: Yeah, it was one of the three things that when the Red Sox can't win it, I'm not happy. When the Yankees can't get there, I'm just as happy as the Red Sox winning if they can't win it.
Matt LaRose: Right.
Fuck Off: And as long as it stays in fucking America, fuck those Canadian douchebags.
Matt LaRose: Fuck yeah, man. Preach, brother.
Fuck Off: Those are your people.
Matt LaRose: the No, those are not my people.
Fuck Off: No, no, no. They're your people. There's plenty of documentation around it.
Matt LaRose: No.

Fuck Off: You can't do that.
Matt LaRose: I can't. Listen, I was born here. I'm an American. I bleed red, white, blue.
Fuck Off: Since when you were born there?
Matt LaRose: Fuck those people. I actually watched that game seven. it was very I was keeping up with the World Series because...
Fuck Off: Every game was like that.
Matt LaRose: The Aqualad has sold me on Shohei Yotani. Shohei Yoshida? Is that his name?
Fuck Off: Otani, yeah.
Matt LaRose: Shohei Yotani. ah My big marksman, like, this guy is the best baseball player in the world. He's like a modern-day Babe Ruth.
Fuck Off: He's the best player since Babe Ruth.
Matt LaRose: And then I didn't realize that he was – I was like – so I started looking him up, and I'm like, wait, he's a pitcher. So does he only bat? And then my brother's like, no, dude, he's a two-way player. And I'm like, this guy's fucking unbelievable.
Fuck Off: And he's fucking gigantic. He's a big dude.
Matt LaRose: Is he really?
Fuck Off: Yeah, he's a big kid. And yeah he's a super...
Matt LaRose: And then i didn't...
Fuck Off: he There hasn't been this kind of a player since Babe Ruth, honestly.
Matt LaRose: I don't want this to sound racist or anything like that.
Fuck Off: He's definitely already racist.
Matt LaRose: But I was falling asleep in the ninth inning. So I was in and out of consciousness as the as the as the extra innings were happening. So when the game...
Fuck Off: So when you were squinting, you felt like you were one of them?
Matt LaRose: I thought I was like when they, I woke up for the last couple of pitches and I was like, wait, they put Otani back in at pitcher.
Fuck Off: Oh, that was Yamamoto.
Matt LaRose: Cause I didn't, I didn't realize that they, I didn't even know that they had two other Japanese guys. So I just, I just saw the Japanese guy on the mound and I'm like, I'm like, wait, so it was, so they, I'm like, how did they put Otani back in the game?
Fuck Off: Oh, yeah.
Matt LaRose: And then I found out the next morning. I was like, Oh, there's a dude Yamamoto and another guy. Like, and then obviously.
Fuck Off: yeah Yamamoto pitched that fucking game the night before, too. He's a stud.
Matt LaRose: Right. Didn't he pitch an entire an entire game?
Fuck Off: Yeah.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: And he came in and he pitched, like, I think the last four innings or something of that game.
Matt LaRose: These kids, they're fucking awesome. and then they have
Fuck Off: ah
Matt LaRose: And then I know that they did it last year, and then they did it again this year. When they have their fucking celebration, they have Ice Cube and a drop-top fucking 57 Chevy Dodgers Blue drive the fucking championship trophy. I'm like, this is fucking awesome, man.
Fuck Off: Yeah.

Matt LaRose: Yeah, I just never... That shit never even crossed my mind. It's so crazy. But it makes sense, man. It's like... this like If you think about it, like especially with this like the UFC thing going on, they said that the FBI tipped them off and said that like they have seen weird movements in one of their fights and they may want to cancel it.
Matt LaRose: And the UFC decided to not cancel the fight and to let it keep going. And it's like... the thing ah The reason that they did this with DraftKings and all these betting apps and shit like that is because when they were betting illegally or you were going to see a bookie back in the day, the government can't track that.
Matt LaRose: But now with everything being done on the internet to keep it legal and safe, they track every fucking transaction. that every So it's not like back in the day.
Fuck Off: They also, it's their way of getting a piece of everything.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, I mean that too, obviously, but it's like now they can track everything that you do.
Fuck Off: Yeah. It's your DNA is all over the internet.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, dude.
Fuck Off: You can't hide that shit. Even with burner phones, burner accounts, it's impossible. That's why everyone's looking for this new world order. Everyone's out.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: You got to have your own country like the Vatican.
Matt LaRose: Yeah. Or like Starbase in Texas.
Matt LaRose: You know?
Fuck Off: I don't know. No, I don't. I do not know. No.
Matt LaRose: I don't know. Did you watch the fights last week, Rich?
Fuck Off: You're going to have to tell me.
Matt LaRose: I watched some of them. They actually were really fucking good.
Fuck Off: Maybe I did too.
Fuck Off: Yeah, i think I did.
Matt LaRose: The main event was Steve Garcia knocked out David Onama in the first round.
Fuck Off: couple of things happened.
Fuck Off: Yeah, great.
Matt LaRose: That was the main event.
Fuck Off: Great fucking Stevie Garcia looked fucking great.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, he fucked that dude up. and think we both Did we both pick that? Or maybe I picked Onama.
Fuck Off: No, you definitely picked That fucking the punch that finally ended it, that overhand fastball, right?
Matt LaRose: The co-main event, so this was super fucked up, was Waldo Cortez Acosta defeated Ante DeGila via first-round knockout.

Matt LaRose: Yeah, he's a big, lanky fucking heavyweight, man.
Fuck Off: Put him right out.
Matt LaRose: He can fuck people up.
Fuck Off: Yeah, he's he's got a whip, and he's got that overhand fastball pitch.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, yeah.
Fuck Off: Yeah, that was weird. He got poked in the eye. They stopped the fight for a bunch of minutes. They thought, but it was never.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: When you go back and look at it, he called time right away. So the fight wasn't over.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: So he actually did a good job roughing it.
Matt LaRose: It was pretty surprising because like I was very confused if they were going to let it keep going because he had more than five minutes. and then But the ref said he wanted to see the replay, and they said, yeah, it was a foul. So they said, the fight's not over. If you can still fight, you can still fight.
Matt LaRose: And then he says, I can still fight. Then he knocks the guy out. So it's like,
Fuck Off: ah Makes Tom fucking Aspinall look like a bitch, doesn't it?
Matt LaRose: yeah, it's pretty crazy. lot eye poke shit going on, man.
Fuck Off: Too many. It's coming to an end.
Matt LaRose: Yeah.
Fuck Off: You either have to take points right away.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, they should. You know? I mean, think like I think about it like from hockey. Like, whether you meant to fucking hook a guy or not, you're in the penalty box.
Matt LaRose: You know what I mean? So it's like, if you did you mean to poke him in the eye? Yes or no? It doesn't matter. You poked him in the eye. I got to give him time off now, and you lose a point.
Fuck Off: It's manslaughter.
Matt LaRose: Yeah, man. You got to just fucking...

Fuck Off: Yeah. And he couldn't tap and he went out and the ref couldn't see him. He was out for like five minutes.
