I think they're taking a note from like Roblox, the like game where you have this completely like social life where you can interact with people. And they're just kind of expanding Facebook and Instagram. The I think no matter what, at the end of the day, it's all about, you know, to play a better service and everybody's no matter how good you did. I want to suffer through the Popeye's line. For.

00:29

Sorry, I didn't want to, you know, oversell it or undersell it, but you know, since it is, and I'll just go right to it. It's day of friendship, national day of friendship, international day of friendship, did you know it? I don't hate them, but I don't love them. They're just enough. Just enough. Good enough the way we are. Yeah. Uh, Joey, Joe and Sean are, uh,

01:57
I don't know what, what do you call yourselves? I don't want to call you a comedic troupe, you know, whatever. Some of the funniest guys I know, Joe and I go way back to, uh, High School, High School Clemson, you know, we didn't do anything bad ever. And just, uh, okay. I built them out of jail a few times, but other than that, you know, we won't talk about any stories, but, uh, you can find them on TikTok on Instagram.

02:26
as Joey Joe and Sean and, uh, guys, you guys are lighting it up and I was just like, started watching like, I know that guy, Joe went to high school and college with this kid, like suddenly you guys are blowing up on Tik TOK. I'm like, all right, we're going to get these guys in here on the rad cast and helping out with some agey stuff, doing some skits, doing some writing. So, uh, how did you guys actually come together though?

02:51
the

03:20
branded content for a gas station that I will not plug. Convenience store. Till they're paying us. The gas station convenience store. Sure. He did marketing for them and I was making videos and we got linked up. And the rest is history. Now, uh, now playing multiple characters. We decided to have them on the news episode today. Uh, you know, Josh and I, Josh is the, I guess, definitely the funny guy at the agency, he doesn't know it.

03:49
He may know it, but, uh, he's the closet funny guy. He, I bring them on and you know, we'll be sitting here talking about something. He'll say something and I'm like, you know, and we'll go on, uh, I'll go home and Nicole will, uh, say Josh is pretty funny. Strong audience of one for Josh. Given our ratings keep increasing every time Josh Josh is on, uh, maybe it's a every podcast, sell out every podcast.

04:17
Exactly. I sent some subversion on Josh's end, dude. He's trying to take the crown, right? I would fire him right now. Hey, hey, stop. Can we mute their mics real quick? Yeah, exactly. But today is actually being July 30th. It's two national social holidays, International Day of Friendship and Talkin' Elevator Day. What the fuck does that mean? I have no idea. Do you not supposed to talk in the elevator? I guess it's a nice change of pace, because every day I wish someone doesn't talk to me in an elevator. Yes.

04:46
Any thoughts guys on talking elevator day? I fucking hate elevator. Yeah. I got caught in an elevator one time. It was the worst experience of my life. Started taking off my clothes. What'd you get caught doing? I know the story. I got caught taking my clothes off. Yeah, sure. Sure. I take the stairs from now on. Yeah. I only go into one story building. So I've actually never been in an elevator. Yeah. My mother-in-law does not take elevators. We have at our loft.

05:16
You know, four floors were on the third and I didn't know this about her. Maybe I'd heard it at some point and, uh, we had them over the other week and like, I was downstairs with what she came in and my kids, I'm like, headed to the elevator and she goes towards the stairs and I'm like, we're on the third floor. She's like, yeah, I'm going to walk. I asked the coal like later, like, yeah, mom doesn't take elevators. Like, all right. What is elevator phobia?

05:43
You nailed it. I think July 31st is a elevator phobia day. What's her thought on escalators? Yeah, I don't know. We'll find out. I haven't been to a mall with her or anything. So and she doesn't ride on planes. She's a wonderful woman, but she does not ride on planes and she does not take elevators. Anyway, well, she just won't be able to celebrate talking in elevator day. Obviously.

06:12
Or plane crash. Talking a plane day. Yeah, the holiday we all know and love. Today's also my wedding anniversary, by the way, in case anybody cares. Hey, congratulations. Thanks. I'll tell my wife he said so.

06:30
You talk to her anyway. Don't worry about it. He's been divorced for 25 years. This is still the anniversary. Yeah. If they were still together, this would have been 25 years. I just took the ring off yesterday. It's a big deal. Should have been Diamond anniversary. Cause I'm 60. Well, we've had a good week here at Radical. We did, I hope everyone saw the, uh, or watched the Ben Higgins episode, whether you're a bachelor fan or not, Ben was pretty cool. Uh, we had a good episode there. And.

07:00
All you Hills fans, Spencer Pratt will be on the podcast next week. It'll be releasing in a few weeks. You guys Hills fans. You guys watch the Hills back in the day? Yeah, no, maybe. Hills have ice. Yeah. Sean looks like Spencer Pratt a little bit. I actually was a fan of the Hills because he was on it. Yeah. Cause my older brother was on it. growing up in New Jersey. I always was jealous of these kids. I like lived in Laguna beach. They live like these magic.

07:29
that was in New Jersey press that was the hills was my escape from reality oh wow was the hills on your radar? yeah it's by the way before Josh is too young the uh Laura Conrad whatever he was Heidi Montag calm down Spencer's uh wife but uh looking forward to having him he's an interesting dude

07:55
He's gotten into crystal business on e-commerce and not that kind of crystal guys, but we'll have him on next week and look for that episode in the coming week. So a couple of news items in the least shocking news of the week. Right. Google released some numbers where their advertising is up 61% year over year. And this does $50 billion.

08:25
That's great. Second quarter. It's really great for them as a as a struggling startup. I'm really happy that they're getting some traction finally. That's good for them. Least shocking news ever. Maybe they'll get maybe they'll get up there in the top websites. I thought this was interesting. So Six Flags in Texas just unveiled a new roller coaster, which is the steepest diving roller coaster in the country. Dr. Diabolical's Cliffhanger. I mean, it comes up these names, but.

08:55
Are you guys roller coaster fans? I am. I like roller coasters. Yeah. I'm into it. What about roller coaster tycoon fan? I don't know if you guys put that. More of a zoo, more of a zoo tycoon guy. I think we're going to do a field trip for the next news episode. Whenever Dr. Diabolical's a cliffhanger opens and we're going to mic up for that. There's your mother in law.

09:22
roller coasters. We'll find out. Won't we? That might be an interesting, uh, subplot for the Radcast, you know? Oh yeah. We'll make up the mother-in-law for her versus roller coaster. Will she do radical mother? Will she ride on a train? I don't know. Exactly. Uh, and Josh, you need, uh, Josh always does our TikTok hits of the week.

09:49
Other than Joey, Joe and Sean, you know, what else has hit your radar? My feed has been full of not like Olympic highlights, but Olympians just geeking out over all the free stuff that they're getting. They're getting, they have this like swag bags. Yeah. They're like someone was walking through all the Nike gear they had for team USA. Probably like probably 200 pieces of clothing, um, all custom made for them. And they've got.

10:17
access to these 24 7 like cafeterias and stuff. They got free coke machines everywhere like Coca-Cola is balling out, of course. All American keep those athletes highly nutrition with their coke. They say that they're pounded six cokes before they swim. It's probably it's probably the Coca-Cola with the cocaine in it, too. But even Asics, Asics is out there doing like foot scans and like custom

10:46
fitted shoes for free for the athlete, which is insane. But that's been super fascinating. But then it's all these like world-class Olympians who were just like jacked and like massive muscular, and then they're making tech talks about being too shy to go talk to like, uh, like people that have crushes on stuff. It's like, in the Olympic village, just like a big hum fist, like in them really well. Yeah. It's just a bunch of like, they finished their races and they're whatever they're doing. I got just jumped over.

11:16
hurdles and now I'm going to go hurdle this. Imagine how powerful their offspring would be. They're just started breeding. They're actually growing as a super human race. The village is for Olympic people. Yeah. Oh no. Yes. I think that is the goal there. Maybe they can make lots of Olympic babies. Yeah. Just a couple of decades down the road. It's just like, oh,

11:42
You know that start crossing their minds, you know, like, well, you know, if this were to get pregnant, at least he's Olympian. Can be another can be a whole another country. The Olympic Village is permanent. It's like, yeah. Oh, yeah, I'm from Olympia. Olympia. Olympus. Olympus. Just go back in time. Sure. Well, I'm just glad you guys are here on International Day of Friendship. That makes one.

12:11
It's not very friendly. Yeah, that's the least friendliest thing ever. All right. Coming up on the news, first news article of the week. Mark Zuckerberg. I mean, metaverse here, Josh, this is right up your alley. So Facebook not only wants to own the quasi real world known as the Internet. Yeah, they also want to own the totally.

12:39
Unreal AR world of the metaverse. Oh yeah. It's just, you know, another instance of how in touch, uh, the like ultra wealthy billionaires are with society, you know, they're only doing stuff for, for the world, you know, like, uh, like blue origin that's for the people, uh, like, uh, Zucks out here, they, I mean, Facebook owns, um, like Oculus, um, and so.

13:07
They got their VR. They've got their like fake persona like profiles online. I think they're just trying to marry that and just keep everyone online. So basically just trying to have like a VR world. Pretty much. They're kind of like creating this like I think they're taking a note from like Roblox. They're like game where you have this completely like social life where you can interact with people. They're just kind of expanding Facebook and Instagram. I can't wait to interact.

13:33
My aunt's cat means those are good memes. All of it. Now the picture of the food, I can see the VR version. Yeah, it's almost like you can. Yeah. We try to touch it. Are we going to be able to like use Facebook marketplace with this to you? Yeah, exactly. Going to the Metaverse and sell some some not real fabric. I will say this like my kids.

14:00
put more value on like the Roblox skins than they do on like a bike. I mean, like, yeah, and they're active. They play like every sport, but like, they just don't give a shit about like physical stuff. Like, yeah, like the way that we used to, like transformers or whatever, you know, it's like, give me a skin on my dude on Roblox. Possible. My son's the exact same way they play NBA, whatever on PlayStation. And that's, that's all he cares about.

14:29
gift card, PlayStation gift cards for birthdays. He doesn't care about anything else. True. It's true. The, uh, next on our list. So Popeyes, the chicken sandwich wars are diminishing and they have a new campaign coming out. We come in peace. Chicken nuggets from Popeyes. I love good nugget. You guys been into the chicken sandwich stuff?

14:55
that's all about pretty much it's all you've been talking about for like a year at least I like how they're coming to hot out the gate utilizing the UFO stuff yeah our computer is charged are we changing camera angles here?

15:25
What are your chicken sandwich highlights? What are your top spots?

15:32
Uh chicken sandwich what I like not pop eyes. Yeah The best chicken sandwich I had was at that yee-haw brewing company to be honest a little plug for them. I guess. Oh, yeah Yes, uh princess hot chicken. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. That was excellent. Very good The uh, I think that no matter what at the end of the day, it's all about, you know Chick-fil-a is better service than everybody so no matter how good the food is nobody's gonna be like I want to suffer through the Popeye's line For

15:59
Knockoff chicken nuggets, man. I just never saw that. Actually see a line for Popeyes. I wonder if they had a little moment where like Taco Bell released that Chalupa or whatever, where the shell was a fried chicken like. Peace, I wonder if they were just like, we've gone too far, we've created a monster. We must we must repent for our sins. Yes.

16:27
So I don't know, you're going to see a big campaign on digital and TV for Popeyes. We come in peace. Third, I mean, I saw this, I was like, this isn't exactly marketing, but we're the Radcast, we can talk about whatever we want. The Kanye's locked himself up in the Mercedes Benz stadium in Atlanta. Also known, used to be known as the Georgia dome. That's been blown up since then, but, uh, finishing his album in the Mercedes stadium. Don't uh, more like don't you stop the album Kanye.

16:56
Don't dare start calling you. You guys have any thoughts on Kanye locking himself up in the Mercedes? Tell me who else can get to do that? Yeah, I'm just going to go. I mean, what are you renting it out? Surprising. Yeah. He's the fan of the Mercedes Benz stadium now. It's going to haunt it. He was wearing this pantyhose over his head. I'm like, that's actually great.

17:23

He seems like caught on the floor. Oh yeah. He's like, he's roughing it in the Mercedes stadium. It looks like a college dorm. If he doesn't come back jack. Yeah. Right.

17:50
Yeah, he's not working out with the training. OK, so now that's probably it. Sure, you're staying in a football stadium by yourself. There's weights, there's weights. Yeah. And then you'll run on sprints. Sure. Bleachers. Sure. You know. If Kanye is running bleachers, then I want to see that. Yeah, that's going to be this music video. Oh, God. Have you seen that old clip of him performing live and he's like rapping and he just sprayer is the rad cast new like.

18:18

19:16
There's not the force. Happy 15 years ago. I know why she still has to be. You still trying to run my life. Probably because we still live in the same house. Our final news article today.
