Yeah, you got that guy Keith, you got Lucas.

A lot of good women there, a lot of good...

We gave him his own Bud Light after the first week.

Let's be allies by getting a little day drug.

You know, because Kid Rock and Travis Tritt have put the fucking hammer down

I know they're really fucking fighting the good fight man.

Like what you're doing What they're doing is just spreading the brand to an extra group of people.

Why, if something is good, do you give a fuck who's got it?

Like if there was like a bomb-ass cheesecake and all of a sudden, you know some radical group like Antifa I really got into the cheesecake who'd be like fuck this And if the it like if the Cheesecake Factory sent Antifa a cheesecake,

Yeah, If only ISIS had bear claw donuts, I'm still eating those fucking donuts.

But on the other hand, I love Kid Rock's video.

I like a dude who takes a machine gun to a stack of Bud Lights and is like, fuck Anheuser-Busch.

Don't they all support like LBGTQ plus AI, whatever the hell else they're attaching to it issues?

I mean, I'm from Colorado and Coors has had those rainbow cans forever.

Those things have fucking millions of views.

he was not, he said the exact same thing.

He's an issue being 1 of the funniest fucking human beings alive on planet

Earth and also generous and and you know My great

guy, but for whatever reason they won't give him a bud light.

They should give him some lip if they were smart they would send Shane a Bud Light with his face on it too.

Well a can's not big enough to fit his face.

Then you'd have to put them all together.

get a left side of the face or the right side?

No, man, I think that it's crazy when people get upset about that stuff because the people who get upset about that stuff value liberty and freedom so much and they want to live their lives undeterred by anyone's rules.

But they think that the company that they like is giving in to the woke agenda.

Well, they think there is in like movies and television and media and commercials.

Have your kid on a delicious, fruity, sort of bubbly, soda-like alcoholic beverage.

My mom and dad split a fucking 24-pack of Zima and made me and Glenwood Springs.

Yeah, because they brought them back, you know?

Zima's a thing with, I'm not really trying to get drunk.

You know, like if I'm trying to get drunk.

always Yeah, don't you just like to have a little buzz?

there you go Yeah, Zima drinks returning to summer of 2018 for a limited time Bring it back Come on Zima.

Fucking White Claws made it, but Zimas didn't.

But tell me, tell me how the fuck White Claws made it and Zima did it.

Well Zima had like 20 years head start on

white cloth, bro I used to get so much shit for ordering Zima.

comics are making fun of me for drinking Zima.

It looks like a What do I need to know is it bad for you?

It had that kind of milky look to it when it was in the bottle for too long.

It started clear, but then if you had it on the shelf for a while.

How long did you leave your Zima on the shelf?

I remember, I think my dad had like a couple of Zimas in his office.

That's the same bottle over and over again.

It's a bottle of delicious clear malt soda.

I'd be more surprised if you had Zima in here than that you have mad honey.

You probably have to get it on eBay from your dad.

But the thing is about this Dylan Mulvaney thing, it's like it's just someone who wants a lot of attention and you're giving that someone a lot of attention you're trying to reach another audience like I Saw and I was like what the fuck is this my initial reaction is like this is silly.

It was a really good parent but it's also your Budlight fan your typical Bud Light fan is like NASCAR Fucking sports like that's most of the people that are drinking Bud Light, guys like Shane.

Most people, you saw the Bud Light demographics of who's drinking Bud Light.

There's a little current popping around in there.


Speaker 0: The Jerogan Experience.

Speaker 1: Yeah, you got that guy Keith, you got Lucas. There's a lot of good guys. Yeah, yeah. A lot of good women there, a lot of good... There's a couple non-barners.

Speaker 1: Here's my take okay? Like what you're doing What they're doing is just spreading the brand to an extra group of people. Yeah. Why, if something is good, do you give a fuck who's got it? Like will we do this with cheesecake?

Speaker 0: Like, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1: Like if there was like a bomb-ass cheesecake and all of a sudden, you know some radical group like Antifa I really got into the cheesecake who'd be like fuck this And if the it like if the Cheesecake Factory sent Antifa a cheesecake,

Speaker 2: you

Speaker 1: know for 10 more years of chaos

Speaker 2: Yeah, If only ISIS had bear claw donuts, I'm still eating those fucking donuts.

Speaker 1: But on the other hand, I love Kid Rock's video. Because I love that. I love that kind of thinking. Not even that I agree with it. I like wild people.

I like a dude who takes a machine gun to a stack of Bud Lights and is like, fuck Anheuser-Busch. This'll show up. But I mean, where's he gonna go now? You're gonna go to Coors? Miller Light.

Don't they all support like LBGTQ plus AI, whatever the hell else they're attaching to it issues? They all do.

Speaker 2: Bud Light sponsors the moon.

Speaker 1: So if you're 2 fisting, you know.

Speaker 2: Here we are in a post Zima world.

Speaker 1: It's over. It's weird, because it was delicious. It didn't taste bad at all. It's not a bad product.

Speaker 2: It was kind of viscous, though. It had that kind of milky look to it when it was in the bottle for too long.

Speaker 1: Really? Yeah. I thought it was like Sprite.

Speaker 2: It started clear, but then if you had it on the shelf for a while.

Speaker 1: How long did you leave your Zima on the shelf?

Speaker 2: I remember, I think my dad had like a couple of Zimas in his office. Even though they're a little milky. Milky. Yeah, look at that.

Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's just a CGI image.

Speaker 2: No, you think that's computer generated?

Speaker 1: That's the same bottle over and over again. That's what it looks like. It looks like fucking soda. It's a bottle of delicious clear malt soda.

Speaker 2: I'd be more surprised if you had Zima in here than that you have mad honey. That would blow my mind even more.

Speaker 1: You probably have to get it on eBay from your dad. Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 0: Your dad's got some cases.

Speaker 2: My dad takes the

Speaker 1: helicopter in. Your dad's got some cases. But the thing is about this Dylan Mulvaney thing, it's like it's just someone who wants a lot of attention and you're giving that someone a lot of attention you're trying to reach another audience like I Saw and I was like what the fuck is this my initial reaction is like this is silly. It was a really good parent but it's also your Budlight fan your typical Bud Light fan is like NASCAR Fucking sports like that's most of the people that are drinking Bud Light, guys like Shane. Most people, you saw the Bud Light demographics of who's drinking Bud Light.

It's bigots. I saw this fucking Guys like Shane. He's joking, Shane.

Speaker 2: Yeah, Shane's my boy.

Speaker 1: What the fuck was I going to say? Jesus Christ, you threw me off.

Speaker 2: Yeah, wasn't the honey? No, no. The honey's in there, though. There's a little current popping around in there. It might be the cigar.

Speaker 1: Probably cigar.

Speaker 2: Yeah. Can I have that lighter again? Yeah, sure.

Speaker 1: Thank you. Fuck, I lost it.

Speaker 2: You were talking about, oh yeah, just how The target demographic of Bud Light.

Speaker 1: But it's like a lot of companies are using this person. There's more than 1 company. There's like a bunch of them, like Nike and a bunch of other stuff.

Speaker 2: Also, she's pretty. I get it. No, I mean, I see nothing wrong.

Speaker 1: Good luck.

Speaker 2: Hey, man.

Speaker 1: Yeah, it's 1 of those things, it's like it's funny what people get super outraged about. You know, like we're in the middle of, you know, Tulsi Gabbard posted up some stuff the other day about the restrict act, and flip the top. Here, I showed you before. Pull the top back,

Speaker 2: there you go. Thank you.

Speaker 1: Well, I did it before you before. That's like 1 of those teach a man to fish things yeah it's not gonna be

Speaker 2: late But

Speaker 1: you know like no one's freaking out about that, but they're freaking out about Bud Light like how you how is that the big deal? I Think it's goofy because I think that person's goofy But if you want to hire a goofy person like who gives a shit. It's kind of hilarious when someone says 365 days of womanhood.

Speaker 2: It was also on April Fool's Day.

Speaker 1: That's true too, but it also was just a can with that person's face on it, that's all it was. It wasn't like something they were selling.

Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't have it in stores.

Speaker 1: No, but it's kind of funny. I like that people get mad. I thought what Kid Rock did was funny. I laughed at it. I told him I thought it was funny.

But I also, it doesn't make me mad.

Speaker 2: Not at all.

Speaker 1: It just makes me like, what? I get what they're doing though. They're trying to get people that are popular. They're just looking for influencers to help them.

Speaker 2: They're trying to look more inclusive because of the assumptions people make about Bud Light drinkers.

Speaker 1: But those assumptions

Speaker 2: And also look at us. We're on the biggest platform in the world discussing Bud Light for like 10 minutes.

Speaker 1: Right. It's probably good for the brand.

Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 1: Yeah, Shane loves it. I just don't.

Speaker 2: I like Miller Lite more.

Speaker 1: I like Sam Adams. I like a dark beer. Oh, I want a beer I can have like 17 of, man. Oh, really? Yeah, I want to be sipping beer all night.
