Episode 66: Sweet Swing

This is Dan Patrick takes a gam.

Gambling was something that I did a clever way to circumvent Dan actually making bets himself by using a proxy, and I became consumed by it.

And now joined by bad Larry and Dylan the graphics guy.

Here's Dan Patrick.

Hey Larry, Hey Dan, how you doing buddy?

Wait?

I just picture day Ray said that you're at the cemetery.

Thank you. I just saw Frank Martin, who was I don't know if you remember. He was the Wizard of Iral. I just saw his grave. And now the girls are wandering over to some artist team Baptista or something. But I came back to the car and for the call. Okay, we're wandering around Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn, and then the girls want to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. Look, I'm a jump.

So you're at the cemetery. But nobody died.

Oh no, no, nobody died. I'm just they want Last night, we were just drinking and they just said, let's drive to the Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn. Here's beautiful and it's not bad.

Actually I do show.

I'm going to continue our wander.

Okay, fucking weirdo seems.

Everyone loves to go to New York to see the cemetery as I think.

No, I'm in Brooklyn right now and we will be doing Peter Luger's around three o'clock. So I'll do the walk across the bridge and then I'll start pounding.

You're a fucking tourist. That's it, Peter.

Peter Luger is one of the great steakhouses in America.

They lost their Michelin star though this year.

They did make sure you bring cash, Larry. They don't take credit cards there.

I got. I got plenty of cash around me.

We're good, Larry.

We're exactly dig up a tombstone.

I'm exactly at right. I can look at this guy, Jean Battist, some artists, and I'll tell you what. There's Marlboro cigarette tacks.

Wait, hold on, Lara, is it basque.

At Yeah, that's the guy home.

Not very well known artists.

I don't know golfers, and I don't know here graffiti artist. I mean, it seems like there's a.

Lot of he's he's a famous.

People are smoking and drinking.

He's a famous famous he dated Madonna. He's well, a lot of people did, but he's a famous, famous artist who passed away at a young age. He and Andy Warhol were in business together.

But a bunch of like pencils left at the grave site, and there's a whole I mean, you can tell that this this grave gets visited way more than most of them in this place.

I think he's more famous than the ten Man. It was, the Wizard of Many, probably more famous than the Frank Frank Martin.

Seeut there, you're talking about the South Carolina basketball coach. Yeah, Frank Martin died K State coach.

I'm talking to Wizard.

Okay, all right, Uh it is for twenty at least. We're recording this on four twenty and uh picture day. Ray said that you guys needed to have a four to twenty story, or at least a reefer story. Bad Larry. I've been around you over twenty years. I don't know if i've ever seen you partake in, said Reeth.

I didn't even know what that four twenty meant. Now I'm figuring it out. Okay. Yeah, I'm not a big pot guy, Dan, but I remember back in college, Heiner and Nolan tried to get me high, and I heard that you didn't get high the first time you smoked. So I'm okay, I smalled up.

Hold on, let me let me help you here. Tell the fucking story. Nobody knows who Heiner and John Nolan are. So you say my roommates tried to get me high, therefore the audience doesn't Okay, let's try togaino.

There we go.

My two roommates tried to get me high, and I didn't think I was high. So to prove to them, I took one of my notebooks and went into the shower, turned a shower on, and sat in the tub and was writing myself a note to prove that that I wasn't high. I just looked at myself and I have the shower going, the book is all wet, and I guess.

Mine, that's amazing.

That's a good story.

That's good.

That's a good story. Dylan. Can you, uh, you know, kind of break this down to one moment here?

I mean, there's a but, well, so I don't smoke weed anymore. I actually have a theory that everyone hates it, but everyone's too afraid to admit it and due to social constructs. But I don't smoke anymore. I used to there's a lot. I mean, I guess I got freshman year of college. I went to a concert, took acid, came back home, and it was like three in the morning. I classed at ten, and I was like, yeah, fucking

I can't can't do it.

Well, why don't you stop, you know, taking the acid, then maybe you would have enjoyed the class.

But I was like I was totally committed to not going. And then I smoked weed and I was like, I fuck, I didn't go last week either. I got to do it. So I showered walked in there, and I was.

Like, so the weed motivated you.

Motivated me and then also just ruined my.

Medding rare that weed would motivate you.

I think it was like a reverse psychology. Was that the name of the class or no, it was like I think it was like seventeenth century history. I was like, I'm gonna fail this anyways. I mean, as we'll just drop.

It, shay.

Yeah, I got a bunch. I got one that I can really And there was a I mean I smoked weed every day every day right before bed. I get stoned and I sleep better better in pills. But there was a time in my life when I took a break from the weed years years off, and then I was in Greece and I wanted to get stoned. I was in Athens and I had to go score from some you know, dirt bag, and you had to give him the cash up front, right of course, and I

I couldn't feel him. It was great, it was it was phenomenal.

Okay, dan you.

I'm not a podhead fucker. No, no, never been, should be.

I will.

One. I was just telling this story to the dan Etes when I was coming in here. I said, you know, uh, I said to Fritzy, I said, I gotta get you high. You need to you need you need to get high.

Yeah, well that could that pendulum could swing either way. I think with you could just become fully schizophrenic after that.

He could, but that would be good entertainment. Here it's all about content content. But I also told the story of Shay gave me some chocolate gummies, and I thought, okay.

You'd be like Danny. I got some gummies and I.

Go, okay, all right, you just take a little. And I'm like, okay, I'm gonna take a little before I go to bed. I think I took half of this, this little piece of chocolate. The next day, I'm still fucked up. I'm I'm driving to work and I almost turned around. I was halfway to work, and I thought I'll just turn around and then see if my wife will drive me to work.

You just got to ride it out at that point.

Yeah. Right.

I had a bad experience with edibles as well. First time I smoked, my friends were like, oh, let's go watch Inception and they were like, oh, we're going to take some of us are smoking, some of us are going to take edibles. I never smoked, so I was like, I'll take the edible. They hand me a cookie and I just figured it was like a bag of cookies and it's one cookie for like four people.

I just eat the whole thing and they're like, what the fuck are you doing?

And so we went to the movie and then halfway through I called my dad to pick me up.

I think he's learning about that right right now.

Anything that needs to be recapped, I'll start with you bad lair.

Yeah, I mean it was two weeks ago because we took last week off and I don't I mean I remember whatever that guy sen j Omer whatever his name is, sun jaym said like, yeah, he was like plus three and just barely made the cut and must have had a monster Saturday and Sunday because he was in the top twenty. I don't remember how we did it, but because I was up in Maine. So you know, my oldest boy doesn't have a TV. You know TV's are bad.

You were in like the Sahara, What are you a Mormon?

He has young children and he doesn't want them hooked on TV. So he has a TV, but it's in the bedroom. It's just a pain he has to bring out the living room. So I didn't watch any of the Masters, and I just every once in a while went out to the car and plugged my phone and we'll wash updates. And I see, son Jay must have done really well.

Yeah, yeah, he played well. That's what happens when you move up the leaderboard. You guys missed a great opportunity on Damar Hamlin for Comeback Player of the Year. Stupid because picture day re goes. Hey, you know Damorrow. Hamlin minus won fifty to win the award two weeks ago. Now he's minus six fifty to the lock. Like he has to win, but.

There's no way that he can, right, he can play a single game and win. Yeah, well I play.

I guess the second best odds for Comeback Player of the Year are Matthew Stafford.

That's very I know.

I like the Calvin Ridley one.

Yeah, like he came back from being suspended. All right, bad Larry? Uh you ready to go this week?

I got him right here in front of me, Dan, I you know, I don't want I didn't bet any games for tonight, so I just best some of the series.

Okay, but you're not.

I didn't even look up the odds or whatever.

Don here we go stop stop stop, Well, okay, go ahead, you tell me the series. I'll tell you the ons. I got the Calves over the next that's minus one two.

That's all.

Say.

We might have to make a phone call after that.

Stealing.

Yeah, I mean a knick suck and I'm a nick fan. I got the Kings over the Golden State Warriors. I got to be getting some odds there.

Minus one seventy what, okay, possible?

I don't know.

I'm going this is Draft Kings picture. Dave Ray got the un here. So I got minus one seventy, which is surprising number. I'll take the Warriors there outside of it, right, all right, you'll get your turns, you'll get your turn chain, all right.

Yeah, I got the Sixers over the Nets.

It's minus four thousand, god, oh okay, we're hoping for the Nets, oh praying.

Yeah, I'm gonna cancel that that. It's not even worth the two units. Just unload on after I'd have to risk like twenty five units to win two units. Yeah, so those those three well, now those two bet series better are two unit seats, okay. And then I got one unit on the Celtics over the Hawks.

And minus over it's minus five thousand, oh god, twenties.

Last night after I got home and we decided to drive off the Greenwood. Yeah, there's no I'm not betting now any of Then. Okay, what about the Lakers over the.

Grizzlies minus one fifty?

Okay, I want the Lakers for the one unit okay, and then there's just the two. I got to cross these out. Of course, I'll have a pen. I'm in Casey's car right now. I don't have a pen. Okay, you guys are going to keep track of them. Now you want the Zeri Classic, I just got. It's top twenty, top ten, and top five, all the same team more Cowa and Homer.

Okay, minus three point thirty for a top twenty finish. Top five finish is plus two hundred. Top ten finish for Marikawa and Homa is minus one forty.

Okay, I'll keep down, all right.

Uh shay, you ready?

Yeah?

All right? Right.

Baseball, we've got the Twinkies plus one oh five against the Red Sox San Diego, Arizona over nine and a half Reds. I love this bet, so it's probably going to be a fucking pain in my ass. Reds plus one thirty five against the Buckos and then La New York under eight and a half with Nasty Nester on the bump. Okay, NBA Suns Clippers under two twenty six, don't really care, but I'll be watching.

The game, so I put money on it.

Two twenty six and a half.

Oh, look at me stealing.

Okay, I want to add with Larry. I want to add the Lakers over the Grizzlies laying a buck and a half. Okay, yeah, I want to add that in. Okay, Dylan, how many bets do we have today?

Just a couple some golf. It's the Chevron Championship this week, so the.

First major of the year for the LPGA it is.

I'm going girl Nelly Korda, all right, gotta love Nelly Cory.

She's got a sweet swing.

Thanks.

That's plus eleven hundred. And then what.

Beer are you drinking?

Is Troy?

Troy? Yeah, I had no idea. Yeah, that's the eight beer. It's only a four percent ABV.

I don't know what the hell happen, less calories and the glass of white wine.

Give a ship.

Continue, it's Sung JM gonna make an appearance.

He just might end but with Keith Mitchell. So Sung Jay and Keith Mitchell to win the Zurich plus twelve hundred, and then I just had to do this. I'm putting half a unit on John Daly and David Duvaldaway and at one thousand to one, yes.

Yes, wait, I think it's is it one thousand or is it ten thousand.

So it's plus one hundred thousand, so dollar dollar win you a thousand. Oh okay, yeah, okay, I mean why not, right, Yeah, sure, why not? And uh so that's it for golf NBA. I'm taking the Nuggets to win the finals plus nine hundred like that. Anything else, and then boxing, I'm putting five units on Jervonta Davis to beat Ryan Garcia by knockout.

You're crazy, now you're crazy.

Ryan Garcia is a pussy. He's Instagram boxing.

He's really good on Instagram. But no, technically speaking, the dude is good.

Wait, he's good on Instagram.

He's great on Instagram. That's like what he does for a living a box.

Yeah, he's literally he's like had like three fights.

And then he just like but technically the guy no.

No, I mean he's got fast hands, but I still think.

He's got great knocking out. No way, I will fade that ship.

She's going to fade that, all right, anything else?

Yep.

Kind of forgot about the XFL, but then I remember I'm a Sea Dragons fan minus eight and a half.

Because you love Ben Denucci due genius.

You can't say that why not.

I don't know.

I've been told I'm not allowed to say that.

Twenty percent of Connecticut residents identify as Italian American. We are fucking surrounded. As time we start protecting ourselves.

I agree, No, you can't say that. No, but you can't say that, and aren't the Irish we don't like the Italian? No, but yeah, there it's it's without papers.

Yeah, so technically anyone could be Yes, there's a lot of about Danny.

No Italian is definitely no without papers.

Yeah, okay, whatever Danny Italian, Mussolini followers.

Okay, here we go. You have the XFL and anything else.

Sea Dragons might say in Hafigans and Vipers and then NHL Panthers to win the series against the Bruins, plus two hundred presidents trophy curse, the Brews are going down.

Wait, that's after last night's game.

Then yeah, that's this morning.

What was last night?

The game was last night, The odds are from this morning. Okay, plus so I just have to point out one more thing from last episode. Shay took Corey Connors to win, and he didn't make the cut.

There we go, I just had the railbow to win and that son of a bitch.

And actually Shaye and I both did. Larry, you're the only idiot who didn't.

I smoked the mask.

Larry says he doesn't know golf.

For XFL or or the fight boxing that is betting on.

Now, you don't know NFL either, Larry.

Really listened to the first season. Say you'll change your opinion.

Id rather digest glass if.

You if you were a smartler, you'd only bet on golf.
