Well you said you can’t wait for my follow up so here it is… I was literally talking about every vaccine but COVID. Hence why I referenced young kids. You went nuclear and you surmised that I was talking about COVID and it was everything but that. Shoutout to Ric and Frank for defending me. I was talking about all of the required vaccines young kids need before age two, including hep b minutes after birth. Nothing about Flu or COVID. Just the other ones that kids get in their first year of life. Feel like your wife is more in tune and probably dealt with all that stuff.
Last week I asked about a segment where you breakdown videos as you did with the Caleb plant clip and others. I mentioned the video of McGregor walking across the highest bridge and you said you would do it (as the team vouched for how funny it is). Can we get gc to quickly pull it up so you can see it live on air? His commentary is top tier and we would all love to get your reaction live!
Cody Garbrant was the best bantamweight in the world for 25 minutes, agree or disagree? He also had one of the most dramatic and quickest rise and demise. Agree of disagree? There is only one person above him. Can you guess? Tony Ferguson! Is O’Malley vs Garbrant the most obvious big fight currently out there? Feels like those are the intriguing type of fights we use to get.
Curious if you ever see B Shaub just clearly repeating what you say on your show while doing his show? He said that Kayla’s weight cut is brutal and she doesn’t eat anything but what her nutritionist gives her but sometimes she passes out so she’ll take a scoop of peanut butter. He tends to embellish what you say and throw it into his show. Kayla said she eats peanut butter if she’s desperate but never that she passes out. Where else would he have gotten that info from?
Have you seen the clip of the proclaimed serial killer calling in on Howard Sterns show to confess to his crimes? What were your thoughts? How do you think Stern handled it?
Talking about basketball movies and sports documentaries over the last few weeks got me thinking about some of the best and one that you must see is called Through The Fire. The story of Sebastian Telfair going from the projects to highschool straight the NBA. It’s a must see and my #1 basketball film. Have you seen it? Have you heard of Sebastian Telfair? He was also featured in the Highschool Phenoms film with LeBron, Amare, and Carmelo. A heart warming story and great film… Through The Fire. Won’t regret it! Watch with your kids.
Ric once said that nobody looks like someone else, it is just something people say. (Another terrible take by the repeat offender Ric). Look up the Baylor football coach and tell me that isn’t Robbie Lawlers identical twin brother.
I've been getting some attention from other media members but wanted to give you heads up on me creating an mma judging app that displays how a judge scores a round of MMA. I do live posts on X and stream on YouTube. Check out @JudgeAnalyzer on either platform or search for MMA Judge Analyzer. I'd love your feedback if you or one of the Boys in the Back want to check it out. FYI a big inspiration for the scoring philosophy came from Cory Sandhagen talking about assigning points to techniques.
Can I get a shoutout for my team, Oranday Bros JiuJitsu in Southeast Texas? Austin Oranday, the former #1 ranked IBJJF black belt in the world is competing on UFC BJJ today on YouTube, and Damion Oranday is fighting pro for Fury Fc in NOLA on July 18. Both guys are class acts, and the Oranday name will soon be known in households across the country.
The burning question on the forefront of everyone’s minds: would you rather fight a pissed off rooster to the death every time you open any door, or lose all sensation of taste and smell?
Both of these options are assumed to last till your death. You cannot hire a “door opener,” the rooster will still come for you and only be more pissed. Weapons are allowed for this exercise, but only those which are legal to carry in NYC.
Happy International Sushi Day. Ariel whilst we know you love your fancy Sushi what are each of your go to dishes and why?
Now for the MMA question. Conor is back in the news again. This time for punching someone in the face in Pacha in Ibiza. I have tried to be supportive of him through out the years. But now he’s starting to throw his life away more and more and I’m expecting a tragedy in the near future. How is this going to affect his political future? What are your thoughts on his latest embarrassment?
We've talked alot about Jon Jones getting stripped of the belt but he fought last in November 16th, 7 months ago. I understand we have Aspinal waiting but shouldn't Jon out of any fighter have the choice to pick when he fights? Ariel you once said " If a champion does not defend his title for 12 months or a champion is not booked within 12 months, the UFC has the right to strip the Champion." Let's not pretend you haven't been talking about the UFC forcing Jon to fight or have him be stripped since spring time. When Conor went 500 days without defending did you make hours of videos calling for him to be stripped? Was it fair to strip Germaine De Randamie only 5 months of winning the belt?
On a different note, GC you ever use the show to get a girls number? Pull up a clip of you on the bike or something?

Thinking about a third child, why did you and Ric decide on three children as your final number?

GOAT CONNER and Boys in the Baku,

It’s tough.

Love you guys, see ya in Vegas
Ariel, by the end of 2026 what’s more likely:
-the UFC adds another weight class
-the PFL goes out of business
Do we have any effin news on Big News Hughes v Usman? Sick of seeing my boy being out on the sideline while the PFL needs this fight!
