I'm gonna rock hard to oat Mill Pizza, and then I'm just gonna be kind of just gonna be vibing out with Quaker City Nighthawks. I know what to expect from Oatmeal Pizza and Quaker City both incredible. You say pizza so many times you could probably sit in with them. Yeah, I think I'm the understudy if Josh wipes out god one who likes all. I don't think there's one Nervana song I could sing, like no every word his computers full
of beans, radio references. We should have the discussion some other time. Is there a song that you are one hundred percent sure you know every word too. Yes, you have to stay Matthew songs. Well yeah, but also I mean, like your life depends on it. And we just pressed no practice. You tell me the song we had play and you blindfolded sing every song, yeah, or every word? Absolutely tons of songs like that. I have to pick it. Yeah, yeah, I have to pick
it. But yeah, I have plenty. I bet it's less than you think, cocky boys, it's probably less than you think. But it's probably a lot dealing with a couple of top boys here. Danny probably does a damn musicians. A lot of country covers in my life too, and those things just stick with you. And I'm a guy who used to like doing karaoke. Okay, yeah, maybe you could. I conquered it. And what else another challenge? Please, I don't think I could do hardly any
I think I could do. Wish you were here. You could do so many Uh, you could do Sony Electric six songs. You know all the words to every single word. I definitely mumble through some lyrics. You don't know one song word for word for your favorite artists, Come on, you gotta know one. I think you all are now overstating in the disco dude word for word, I mean you know every word to gay bar. Okay, there's some songs that have very few lyrics and danger I voltage. Very
few might do that challenge. I like this Jack push you guys with the test. Let's go to karaoke one night. I'm dying twist his arm. He loves you like karaoke. I do, really, especially when I'm what you go to. If you had to let one rip right, no man, because I'm filling it. I'll definitely put a Whitney Houston song on and I'll sing as I want to dance with somebody that's bold of going with someone who's like a great singer. Yeah you have Whitney if i'm I mean that's
with a few tequilas in my system. Yeah, oh my god, I've seen I've heard JJ sing along with tracks. The next time we do the karaoke thing, Kamakazi, she has got to be in because I want to hear this lady singing because I think you've got pipes. I'm not kidding. Was my church class Okay as a child. Next week, let's figure out a way to do kamakaze karaoke. They't got to beg me brother, brother Alster. I've got the injuries to write home about. Brother, Let's do
this. Who's writing home about their injuries? Brought to you by Rodney prod by Rodney Anderson dot Com nine. The song's been in my head for a week. Next with Glenn this fis you love this song? Next with Glenn's walking around the streets of Buffalo's springing games against the Spread with the guests. So Glenn with Glenn wig wack all over my face, picking games against the spread with the gas in the crap, joining us now on the Freak Hotline.
You can see him tonight and Sunday at tk's Comedy House in Addison, one of the DFW Kings of Comedy. Our good friend Paul Varghee. Oh my god, yo, gentlemen, was up the great Paul Varghee? Wow, p was our letter. You could have done no better than to get us Paul Varghe's for picks with glens Hi, we're having dog upchuck issues right now. Oh no, how many you got? Got two? We have an auscie and a loudber doodle. Do they do the pump fake up chuck.
I'll hear Simon sometimes doing the deep trying to find it, but then nothing comes out. Oh no, she she, she made sure to remind me what she ate yesterday. It's it's all over so uh. And she also refuses to pee outside when it rains. So dude, okay, I have my sweet Simon. Same deal. Do you have to walk outside to show them that it's safe? I mean not, and if it's dumping rain, but even if it's wet, I have to do the whole sometimes in my undies, all the way out by my front gate, just like,
come on, yell at them. I can't dry the earth. You got to figure it out. You have to figure this out. Hey, Paul, I know you're a big Cowboys fan and you have a set Sunday night at TKS, which you know we did a couple weeks ago. Thanks for headlining our freak event there a couple of weeks ago. A right, are you what of those guys who will just avoid the game while you go do your set during the Cowboy game or will you like DVRT and watch it from
scratch? I know you're pretty hardcore. Well, what I used to do when I was I always end up getting the gigs when the big games are on, so I used to actually announce it when I was on stage, and then somebody it would start booing because they were dvring at home. So I try to keep my I try to keep quiet about it. But I am going to be watching right before I go up. So is there any
strategy to incorporating cowboy comedy into a set? I mean, not spoiling the score, but I mean, is that always a safe better around here to throw in, like a Jerry Jones punchline or something like that. It's always there's always one player that all the fans hate. So for a long time I used to make fun of Romo. Everybody would cheer, and now it was Zeke for a while, then Zeke left. Now dak'shit that mantle.
Okay, So Dak's the go to if you need a punchline. But the one local reference you can never do you will always get booed one undredercent of time is the von Erics. You can never mock the von Erics. Take a run at the von Erics, those sacred cows, Yes, you cannot. I've been booed every single time. I just even brought it up. So it was a big bigger than JFK. It's bigger than nine to eleven. It is the one thing you cannot say. And there's a dark history with them. No, no, no, not them. Hey, hey,
off limits, funny man. Uh So, what else have you been up to, Paul? Outside of doing comedy all the time? We'll get you going comedy and dogs. That's it. That's all I got. That's all I got, those two things. You got nothing else. I got no room in my heart for anything else. Just those two and the Rangers every now and again. Yeah, dude, Paul's great. Every time I've
seen you four or five times, he is so good. And not to contrast your fine work against Kevin Turner's, but to see you both on the same stage within twenty minutes of each other with a little t K stuffed into the middle to his set, it's just funny. But Paul, it's some about being comfortable up there, and I guess on some of them, we try to do it here too, where that's like confident and comfortable is probably like the biggest key to success and stand up dude, it's at least looking
comfortable because inside them a wreck Are you a wrecker? Are you guys all insane? I'm hope insane. But I always worry that I'm at that point where like, I'm not famous enough to have momentum the audiences that give me the benefit of the doubt. I have to earn it every joke, so I'm always afraid that the next one is where they turn on me. God, yeah, that's that's got to be sold. I admire these stand up
comedians so much. You know, Paul came up to me before I went on at t K's a couple weeks ago, please tell me and he gets it they say terrible. Oh no. He was like, man, I thought you I had a feeling like you were gonna like call me and ask for And I was like, I don't know if I told you this at the moment, but I was definitely thinking about this after that nights had a
lot going to my head at the time. But I was like, it's not like Paul's like blowing me up when you filled in here on the Freak, you know, the day before you go, you were like asking me for advice, and I I wouldn't have bothered you because I just I don't want, ever want to bother anyone ever, except for Picks with Glens when I frantically text people and trying to book them for the next day. But like I was kind of like, I don't think I need to use anyone
else's too. If I'm going to go out there and fail, it needs to be a full me failure. I'm not based on anything else. What was funny was him and Steve were standing outside of the showroom. I assumed they knew that the show was going on and they were about to go in right before they went up. They had no idea that the show had started. They were just standing there. I was like, do you guys need to know how to get on stage? Like, yeah, nobody's told us.
I had I not been anything, yeah, it would have been even more awkward. Paul's been standing by the bar. Paul gave us the VIP tree VIP treatment kind of showed us where to go. I was like, oh, yeah, that would have been. That had been real great to know, and I went to need me, now you need me exactly. I went to the bathroom about five minutes before I went on, and I texted Mike. Mike and Danny and I just said, hey, guys, haven't made a run for it, And I put up this emoji, and
I really was thinking about doing it. I mean I was close leaving, not because I was scared, because I thought that would be a better bit than whatever I was going to do for five minutes the whole show. Yeah, have you ever seen that a comedian like moments before they go on just leave. There was a you know, Cheryl Underwood was perfilming at the Mprov one time and she did like two hours or whatever, about thirty minutes then she's like, hey, I have to go to the bathroom. And she
just went off stage and went to the bathroom and came back. Like everybody sat there. She came back. At least she came back. It's amazing. You guys want to hear the screeching tires. That's better than doing the Kelly Clarkson doing the business and the bucket side stage, you know, and then get back out there. I mean, that's the thing that happened. So well, Paul, we picked two games and they're against the spread, and the celebrities are five and three so far this year and in first place.
The celebrities and the listeners. The Glens are five and three, tied for first place, so there's a lot on the line for you. Who will you be picking in the Cowboys forty nine Ers game? Cowboys plus three and a half. I hate to say this, it's the Niners, all right, ticking the Niners. Yeah, Niners will win by four or more. They're good. I think it's gonna be one of those typical Cowboys games where like if you just didn't watch it and you see the score at the
end, you're like, oh, it's closer, but it wasn't. Like they'll start coming back into fourth but not really coming back, if that makes any time. So we'll do one of those things. And what about your second game of the weekend? Uh? The with it? Broncos Saints. I think it's Bronco Saints. Uh, Saints at New England. Saints are at patri New England. Sorry sorry, Yeah, that's the uh uh that's the Saints. The Saints will we'll cover that easy, all right, See
that one has got that's well, it's kind of crazy. And fourth point spread, depending on the site you're on, you can get a point for either team. So we're gonna call that game pick them. So it's straight up. I think this is the beginning of the end. Oh, yes, it is all right. So Saints Belichick's gonna go to Hawaii. I think they'll take a year off to you know, reach hard, to whatever they call that thing, and then he's done. So there we go New
Orleans over the Patriots and then Niners minus three and a half. Paul, Thank you very much. I know your t K tonight and then Sunday night, tk's comedy in Addison and we will talk to you next time. Man, Oh, thank you, thank you for the time. Paul. There he goes the best. Dirk's personal hand picked comedian too right for what I just having a birthday party was like, I'll have Dirk do it and picked. Now have Paul. You think he has Dirk's number and they text.
Oh yes, they're buds. Oh yeah, they go way back. He's closer to Dirk than we are. Ye by a mile. How are we not friends with Dirk? Kid? I don't know. It's we've been trying so hard, like we want it more than anything, and we're like I've talked to him many times mostly what we're cool, dude, He doesn't want to be friends with us. That's the problem. It's a two way thing, man. Now that you say it, it makes sense. Yeah and yeah, I kind of see his point now. Our Glen of the Week
also five and three. In the first place, our celebrity are Glenn Week is a bit of a celebrity. It's a special kind of double celebrity edition of Picks with Glenn's, which is really weird because it's name Picks with Glenn's. But Georgs is a Glenn and you can see him tonight.

Yeah, he's okay, He's okay with it. Good morning, fellas you're a rock god. You shouldn't be
asked to be on a phone call at eight ten am. You're right about that. I do. I do like being being called a celebrity, however, so that that's all that all checks out. Are you laying in a bed? You bet? I am. Are you going to go back to sleep after you get off the phone with us? You bet? I am? Damn it. I want that life back, gentlemen, I'm I bet you do.

You're here to give us hot picks. You have to pick the Cowboys football game. They are on the road at the San Francisco forty nine ers. Cowboys are getting three and a half points. Jordan, that's correct. There's no way the ghost of a live Bill Bates would ever let me bet against my boys.
Give me the Sea Boys, all right, Sea Boys plus three and a half points for, And then we do require you to pick one other NFL game. Do you have something in mind? Listen from personal experience, and I was talking to you boys when I was there last Sofi Stadium can be quite a cursed place. I do not like that the Eagles are road favorites. Matthew Stafford is a special kind of little road grimlin or a little kind of grimlin. And I just I don't see the Eagles swooping in there
and you know, and pecking the Rams. Give me the Rams and their strong mighty horns. All right, that's plus four and a half the Rams at home. I love it. I don't know what any of that spread stuff means. I just know a football team when I see him, and the Rams are hungry, They're mean, they're pissed. All right, Cowboys
and Rams, A very very good weekend for the Cowboys. If that plays out the way at Jordan Richardson wants it to play out, all right, it's going to it would be trust me, yea, lock it in, it, in it in. Okay, the sacred cow of the Skins has spoken. That's right. Tonight. I'll be playing some tabla. I'm not going to bring a drum set. I'm just going to bring some traditional Indian drums. It's going to be kind of a laid back, kind of moody
sort of vibe. So I want everybody to be prepared for that. It's gonna be like Alice in Chaine's Unplugged back at ninety three. So watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out, kid, and I'm bringing drums. Okay, all right, George, see you, Thanks, Thanks man. I love you guys so much. Bye. I'm gonna make it go. I'm going to make a call on the fly. Here we will do the rest of pictures glenns including d these two and a half year old son Malcolm next on ninety seven, won the free
