Cassie will see She’s very in sports. A pick up basketball game and just go join it. It’s true. You know? Just pick it up. She actually recently tried to sign up for like a recreational baseball team before realizing that it was like all just like grown ass men that had some kind of like, professional experience. Oh. And she got a call from a coach and had like a 30 minute conversation about her own experience, which I don’t know how she lasted for 30 minutes in that conversation. That’s funny. Anyway. They were like taking it super seriously. Yeah, yeah. She has not played with any team on that league yet. Well dang. She backed out. Listen, But, sports- I have made a pepper, look at that. Sports is part of- You made a habanero. I made a freaking habanero. Look at that. Of this first matchup. Oh sports. Sports, sports. Which sport was the XFL or? Yeah, it’s a team. The Seattle Supersonics. Let her talk, Man. Why are you always interrupting Stevie? I’m not. Yeah. I’m not the one who’s always interrupting Stevie. That was the joke, Doofus. I’m trying to balance it out, I’m trying to balance it out, Doofus. ‘Cause maybe if I- So we’re- Interrupt her Take a joke, Dude. As much as you do. Just take a freaking joke. Then she won’t be so mad at you. Take a freaking joke, Dude. Okay. Seattle Supersonics versus AOL Instant Messenger. So you’re trying to determine which one, Supersonics ended first. Was discontinued. Well my dad still has an AOL email. No, AOL Instant Messenger And it works. is the program. Oh, the Instant Messenger. Supersonics ended first. Bet. Is that how you say that? Let me get my friend Shawn Kemp on the line. Hey, Shawn. And I’m gonna say It’s your bud, Link. that the Supersonics ended in 19. Yeah, what year did the Supersonics go under? Ninety. Eight. 1998? Okay AOL Instant Messenger ended in That’s fine. Yeah, I’ll talk to you later. Yeah, yeah. Two thousand I’ll bring it by. Yeah, yeah. Sixteen. Right. Those are my guesses. Oh. Right. It’s fuzzier than you think it’s gonna be though. Okay, let’s see what information Link gets. Shawn told, all right bye. He’s dead, Man. Shawn Kemp died? I think he did. No, he didn’t, I just talked to him. Didn’t Shawn Kemp die? 1998. Shawn For Supersonics? He’s still alive. Okay, well. He’s gonna see this. Well, any day now. I’m just, I’m sorry. It’s all right, Rhett. I thought that he died? He didn’t die. Sorry, Shawn. So your year prediction for AOL Instant Messenger was close, it was 2017. Hey Shawn, I got Rhett on the phone. He thought you died. When it ended. I want, he’s gonna, yeah, he, yep, yeah. He, yeah, he thought you died, uh yeah. He does, yeah right. Tell him I’m sorry. Yeah, no, yeah. Tell him I’m sorry. I don’t wanna talk to him. Just tell him I’m sorry about it. Yeah he, you do? No, I don’t wanna talk to him. He wants to talk to you. I don’t want to talk to him. He wants to talk to you. I don’t want to talk to him. He wants to talk to you. Okay. You want me to put it on speaker? Yes. Okay, hey, Shawn, I got you on speaker. “All right.” Hey, Shawn. “Hey, Rhett.” Hey, Man. I’m really sorry. “I heard that you,” I’m moving my mouth ’cause I know when Shawn is talking. Yeah, yeah. Just to make me feel- And I know what he’s saying. To make it feel like I’m talking to him “Hey Rhett.” Hey Shawn. “I heard that you thought I had died.” Yeah, and I’m really sorry about that. I got you confused, with a dead person. “I forgive you, Rhett.” “I forgive you.” Uh, it happens. It happens. But I’m actually a big fan of yours. When you played for the Seattle Supersonics. That were around, “Big fan of yours too, Man.” until I was saying 1998 but I bet you guys went to 2006. Now that I really think about it. “Big fan of yours, Man. I always tell people, you gotta watch the show.” Oh, thanks for watching, Man. “Gotta watch the show, okay.” I’ll never speak untruth about you again. “All right, bye-Bye now.” Bye Shawn Kemp. Comedy. So by talking to him you changed your answer from ’98 to 2006? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, so AOL Instant Messenger was discontinued in 2017, Seattle Supersonics ’98. in 2008. Oh. So pretty dang close. Okay. Yeah, I didn’t pay much attention to the NBA in my twenties. That was when that was happening, my twenties were happening. Okay. Taco Bell. Taco Bell. Waffle taco. I remember that. Versus Tower of Terror at Disney, California Adventure. Okay, the Tower of Tower replaced, I know it’s- It became Guardians of the Galaxy. Okay, so you knew that? Okay, so we both know that. And it probably became Guardians of Galaxy pre-pandemic. I’d say five years ago. Maybe four. Oh yeah, two times- Actually, more time has passed Time is fast. More time has passed than we realized because we think about the pandemic and it was just. So I’m gonna say it was five years ago. 2018, I’ll say, 2018 they replaced Tower of Terror. I think, Waffle taco? I didn’t even know anything about that. That the- That’s a blind guess. I think the Tower of Terror went away first. The Waffle Taco is older in my mind because I don’t remember it. If I feel like it happened No, no, no. in the past five years, I’d remember it. So I think the Waffle Taco went away first. I never had one. I wish I would’ve had one. I thought it would always be with us, The like Shawn Kemp. Tower of Terror, Disney, California Adventure, was discontinued, stopped, got removed, yeah, in 2017. Oh. So, very close. Taco Bell, waffle taco, 2015. 2019. Oh! 2015 that thing went away? Yes! Yeah. Oh, it was a breakfast item. And they replaced it with the chicken biscuit taco. When you got it, was it permanently curved? Or did you just have to- We probably had it on this show. Did you have to cradle it? I wanna say you did have it on the show. You must have had it on the show. Oh, they put it in a curved thing, because otherwise it would just be sausage on a waffle. Hmm, okay. Never had it, never had it. I think we probably had it on the show. Never had it. Ricky Lake Show Ricky Lake. Versus Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Ooh, okay, Ricky Lake probably stopped making her show in 2000 and- Well, that’s way later than the Power Rangers 2002, 2002. Nope. There was a lot of versions of the Power Rangers. 2004. Like the Power Rangers. But if you’re talking about the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. You talking about the original or any Power Ranger? Yeah. Yeah. The original series? The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I don’t really know when that. I know when it like, Well they brought it back When they started, but I don’t know when it ended. I think it probably was later than Ricki Lake. Ricky Lake had a comeback. But so did The Power Rangers. Originally. But we’re talking originally. I think originally Ricki Lake, 2004. What did Ricky Lake do? No, maybe 2006? Like what were her subject matters? Anybody remember? Anything and everything. Did she do any like maternity, paternity stuff like Maury? I don’t believe she did that. She was nicer, right? Oh, she was so nice. She seemed so sweet. She was nice. But she was a spitfire. Oh yeah. You didn’t wanna cross her. 2006, I think she went all the way to 2006. I think the Power Rangers went to 2009. Power Rangers went away first. Ricky has that staying power. Okay, so Ricki Lake ended in, Show, sorry. Show. We don’t need to accuse anyone else of anything. 2004. Oh, I was right the first time I guess. You were. It was impressive until you took it back. Yep. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers ended in 1995. So Link was correct. What, yeah. See, I’m just not familiar with it. Not familiar. Only aired for two years. So I was right? Yeah. I can’t remember my answer. And Ricki Lake started in 1993, which feels right. Wow so the show only went 11 years. That’s a long time. It is a long time, I mean that’s how long this show, maybe the show should end now. Who has a show now? Who’s the Ricki Lake now? Go as long as Ricki Lake. Us. Drew Barrymore? Drew Barrymore has a show. I guess that’s No one is making a talk show that is as popular as Ricki Lake’s Show was when it was on because daytime television, Yeah. You can never get back to what it was in those days. Never, never. Okay, here’s one you’re gonna be great at. One Direction versus McDonald’s snack wrap. One Direction broke up Twenty- 10 years ago. No. I’m thinking seven at least. Seven years ago. Seven years ago, 2015. I think it was after that. I’m saying 2015. Yeah. McDonald’s snack wrap? Yeah. Which, I hate that they took that away because it was like It was so convenient. It was very convenient, healthy-seeming thing that you could get. Seeming . At McDonald’s. ‘Cause they would have, it was the fried chicken though, that wasn’t that healthy. No, no, I think you could do grilled, I did grilled all the time. You did grill all the time? I did, all the time. I remember grilled. I think you were the only one that ate it. Yep, that’s why they discontinued. ’cause you didn’t join me. I think you’re the only one that eats a lot of things at McDonald’s. 2015. Like the McRib For One Direction And then I don’t, do you remember when you were eating it? ‘Cause the last time I remember eating it was when we were driving that Ford Fusion around. Oh. That was like 20. The Fusion. I feel like I had it- That was 2018. We did not drive that Fusion in 2018. Yeah, that’s right. But I actually think the 2018’s a good guess for when it went away. Because I was thinking like, I kind of don’t remember when it went away. It was just one day it wasn’t there. So I think that 2018 for the snack wrap, 2015 for One Direction. I think the snack- One Direction got discontinued first. Link, were you gonna say something? Like play the game? Yeah, no. He’s just doing commentary. Well you said, “I think,” and then you stopped. Yeah, I realized I wasn’t thinking. Well, you know. But I do like earlier, when you said something and then you ended it with comedy. I think maybe we should start doing that. It’s kind of like when magicians end their trick with magic. Yeah, yeah, I love it. What? Magic. When we do something- When magicians end their tricks with magic? Yeah when we do something that was supposed to be comedy. When like loan officers be like, “loaned.” Yeah, right. Was that supposed to be funny? ‘Cause if it was, you should’ve said “comedy” after that. Comedy. Yeah. When loan officers be like, “loan.” “Loaned.” Rhett, you’re surprisingly good at this, because One Direction ended in 2015. Bing, bing. So that’s weird. And the McDonald’s Surprisingly accurate. Snack wrap ended in 2016. Oh, okay. Close. Yeah. It just kinda got lost in the mix. Man, why did they get rid of that? They also got rid of, they had some salads at one point. I didn’t think it was great. It wasn’t good at all. It wasn’t good at all. But it was like it was the one thing you could get there and not feel like It was a it was a strip of chicken in a tortilla. I’m just being bad. It was the one way you could go to McDonald’s and not be a bad boy. I don’t wanna go to McDonald’s and not be a bad boy. I want one way. One way at every place to not be a bad boy, come on. I think you should go to Mythical Kitchens Channel and be a bad boy. What’s happening over at the Mythical Kitchen right now? My intention wasn’t to get internet favors. Yeah of course. It was just to like let off steam, basically. Like she like, you know, I have journals full of random scripts that before I even started to do this. Like I’m like a certified like psycho, if you like looked Yeah. at me before making videos. Like I have like Post-it note of like dark jokes and all this stuff all around me. And weird videos. Solving a couple cold cases. Not posting, yeah 100%. You just saw a clip of something we didn’t see it. But whatever it was made you want to go over there and keep watching it. Uh huh. Mythical Kitchen, the channel, comedy. Yeah, all food comedy. Food. Food comedy. Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen movies. Movies. Ooh. Movies. Age of DVDs. Versus Blockbuster video. Or was it VHS? VHF, S. VHS’s. Well. I think actually, well I don’t wanna give anything away. They, I’m just, My personal experience included VHS tapes. So we know they were like tapes but then they went into the DVD era a little bit, probably. What year was did that happen? Aughts. I mean it’s very close to the Blockbuster. Blockbuster Video is not gone. Blockbuster Video going away. Trick question. ‘Cause there’s still that one Blockbuster somewhere. But I think it’s independently owned. So it probably doesn’t count. Yeah this is the- This is 2000. The company went under Last of the 2004 Blockbuster’s company-owned stores. 2007, I think Blockbuster went under 2008. Mm. I’ll let you get your wrong guesses out first. Comedy. I was renting Blockbuster in 2003, I definitely know that. Blockbuster went under. So I think 2008 is when they finally went under. No, it was later than that. Because everything always hangs on almost a decade longer than you think it should. I think 2016 2018. And so I think that Mary Kate and Ashley, they really Earlier than that. transitioned into, definitely earlier than that. And I think the last one they made 2005. I mean, not bad. So Blockbuster Video was 2014. Okay. And there’s only one 2014. franchise location that remains open in Oregon. And then Mary Kay Ashley movies, the last one was out in 2004. “New York Minute.” Oh, dang it. Dang, dang, dang it, comedy. Mm. And then one of ’em became, it was “The Scarlet Witch.” It was Elizabeth. Yeah, Elizabeth. The younger sister. Right, triplets. The one that was a little bit less showbiz. A little bit less showbiz growing up. She came on strong, late. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just like Marky Mark after New Kids on the Block fizzled. Hmm. Okay. Chi-Chi’s Restaurants. Fried ice cream? Versus World Wrestling Federation before becoming WWE. Ooh. Oh. I wonder when it became WWE? that was probably- Chi-Chi’s is definitely more recent than WWF I don’t know, Dude. Chi-Chi’s. I never eat it a Chi-Chi’s. And I regret it every day. You know what the last Chi-Chi’s probably made it all the way to, I bet you, I hate to say it. 2003. I think the pandemic killed Chi-Chi’s. I think, Really? I think Chi-Chi’s in some form, made it to 2020. I think it’s crazy, I think you’re gonna be blown away. Chi-Chi’s made it to 2020 somewhere, somehow. WWE went away. That was, I think that was In 2001. 1997 2001. Okay, so WWF went away in 2002. Oh. So, very close. I’m bad at this. Chi-Chi’s went away in 2004. So they did not make it all the way up to the pandemic. You’re telling me they didn’t make it to the pandemic? That’s what she just told you, Man. Oh yes, they had- I could’ve sworn I saw a Chi-Chi’s out here, since I moved out here. Yeah, I think there used to be one in Burbank. Yeah, but it wasn’t open. You just saw a sign. There was a Chi-Chi’s in Burbank. They closed following multiple bankruptcy filings and a serious hepatitis outbreak. It’s always the hepatitis that gets you.
