EVERY SPOKEN WORD

  1. 0:0015:00

    ... have all the…

    1. JR

      ... have all the results. (lighter clicking) Five, four, three, two, one.

    2. BS

      Make sure Brian's off.

    3. JR

      Boom! And we're live, ladies and gentlemen, to Fight Companion. Uh, it's me, uh, Brian Callahan's on the way, but it's his birthday, and, uh, he's old as fuck. And sometimes you get old, you lose your keys, and you don't know what time it is and shit.

    4. BS

      Tesla, bro.

    5. JR

      Eddie motherfucking Bravo!

    6. BS

      Yo, yo, yo.

    7. JR

      Um, and Brendan Schaub is up in this bitch.

    8. BS

      What up?

    9. JR

      And we're watching Bellator. Hope nobody at the UFC gets mad. But it's a big fight. This is an important one. W- we are, um, right now this is the heavyweight finals is gonna be Fedor versus Ryan Bader.

    10. BS

      I'm excited for that.

    11. JR

      I am excited about that! I'm very excited, I like Ryan Bader at heavyweight. He looks fucking fantastic.

    12. BS

      Love him. He's bigger than me right now.

    13. JR

      How... Dude, how many of these guys just should've done that a long time ago and just stopped cutting weight?

    14. BS

      Went to heavyweight?

    15. JR

      Just cr- crucifying their body.

    16. BS

      Chris Weidman I think is kinda one of the main ones.

    17. JR

      You think so?

    18. BS

      I think he's gonna excel at light heavyweight.

    19. JR

      He just got a disc replaced in his neck.

    20. BS

      Yeah, he's fucked up, but he'll figure it out.

    21. EB

      The worst nightmare though for a fighter, e- in wrestling or MMA, is just being overpowered by somebody.

    22. JR

      Right.

    23. EB

      That's why they're killing themselves. They just wanna... They would rather go in there, uh, depleted, then get thrown around.

    24. BS

      It's so old school.

    25. JR

      Right.

    26. BS

      It's such an old school way of thinking, I feel like.

    27. EB

      It makes sense though, a little bit.

    28. JR

      Yeah.

    29. EB

      I mean, they're doing that-

    30. BS

      To be that bully?

  2. 15:0030:00

    Think about that. Think…

    1. JR

      an alternative explanation.

    2. EB

      Think about that. Think about that.

    3. JR

      There's ... Here's the alter-

    4. EB

      There's way more straight than gay.

    5. BC

      No.

    6. JR

      Hold on. Here's the alt- hold on. Here's the alternative explanation. Gay people, uh, feel m- maligned. They feel like they're left out. They are sad because of this. They live hard lives. They maintain all this emotion inside of them, and they wanna express it some way. And so they figure out a way to sing and to entertain. And goddamn it, Jamie just showed me a picture-

    7. EB

      That's that shit right there, bro.

    8. JR

      ... of Liberace.

    9. BC

      You know, you look at that, Behind the Candelabra-

    10. EB

      (laughs)

    11. BC

      ... is the best movie ever.

    12. EB

      (laughs)

    13. JR

      But that's what I think. I think, you know, they're bullied and th- you know, they're depressed. And the, the people that are the most, like, pushed out in society, those are the ones who become comedians. Those are the ones who become singers. Those are the ones, they become actors, even, because they need-

    14. BC

      They write the best shit.

    15. JR

      They need something-

    16. EB

      There ain't that many.

    17. JR

      ... to, to get out.

    18. EB

      That's just a theory. That's just a theory. I don't ... There's a disproportionate amount of gay singers. Think about that. Think about that.

    19. JR

      Hold on.

    20. EB

      There's way more straight than gay.

    21. JR

      Here's the alt-

    22. EB

      No.

    23. JR

      Hold on. Here's the alternative explanation. Gay people, uh, feel m- maligned. They feel like they're left out. They are sad because of this. They live hard lives. They maintain all this emotion inside of them, and they wanna express it some way. And so they figure out a way to sing and to entertain and goddam it, Jamie just showed me a picture.

    24. EB

      That's that shit right there, bro.

    25. BC

      Now you look at that-

    26. EB

      Of Liberace.

    27. BC

      ... Behind the Candelabra is the best movie ever.

    28. EB

      (laughs)

    29. JR

      But that's what I think. I think, you know, they're bullied and th- you know, they're depressed and ... The, the people that are the most, like, pushed out in society, those are the ones who become comedians. Those are the ones who become singers. Those are the ones, they become actors, even, because they need-

    30. BC

      They write the best shit.

  3. 30:0045:00

    Oh, dude. …

    1. JR

      Baker, he's a great guy.

    2. BC

      Oh, dude.

    3. JR

      When- when I brought up JFK, he's like, "D- did the CIA kill JFK?" He's like, "You know, with this ML- Martin Luther King Jr. thing."

    4. BS

      (laughs)

    5. What about-

    6. JR

      Yeah. (laughs) No, but he goes-

    7. BS

      I'm showing him the bullet, I'm like, "I know you've-

    8. JR

      I know.

    9. BS

      ... I know you've seen bullets hit things." That fucking bullet never shot anybody.

    10. JR

      He lost credibility with that. He goes, "Yeah, I do believe he was able to pull that off. And if you get up there, you can actually pull that off.

    11. BS

      Yeah.

    12. JR

      Any hunter could do that." Wrong. No, no, no, that's not exactly true. You could do it. It's not that far. It's less than 100 yards, but then you gotta rest.

    13. BS

      With that gun? It's a little shaky.

    14. JR

      No, no, no. It's not. And the, and the bullet, the way the bullet came in. (clears throat) I'm telling you, the on- the only problem is the magic bullet theory. Okay, here's the wrestle- here's the fight, here's the fight. What is the gentleman?

    15. BS

      Uh, Mike Bader seems like a very thoughtful guy.

    16. JR

      Who was the gentleman in the, the white?

    17. BS

      Juan Archuleta is that, is the guy with the bald head.

    18. JR

      It's Archuleta. And he's a wrestler.

    19. BS

      And he's a wrestler. Yeah, high level.

    20. JR

      He's 21 and one.

    21. BS

      Real pedigree.

    22. JR

      And I think Ben Dejas, is he a sack-sawing guy? Oh, look at that take down. Oh, Jesus Christ. Geez, Goddamn.

    23. BS

      Now, now once he's on you, you're not getting him off. Watch this.

    24. JR

      Oh, Jesus.

    25. BS

      There you go.

    26. JR

      Goddamn. Slam.

    27. BS

      Yeah, you're not, you're not going down.

    28. JR

      D- Damn. Brian Callan dropping knowledge.

    29. BS

      Yeah. Well, he was on Warrior, so I spent a lot of time with him on set.

    30. JR

      Mm. Did he throw you around, B? That was the guy in the last UFC-

  4. 45:0054:26

    Not a shot. Oh,…

    1. JR

      a dollar at the end of this fight also. I don't know.

    2. BS

      Not a shot. Oh, look at this.

    3. JR

      I think so.

    4. BS

      Look at this. See? Start tapping.

    5. JR

      What is that? Nothing.

    6. BS

      Archuleta's probably winning the fight, Joe. Mm?

    7. JR

      Just from control.

    8. BS

      What?

    9. JR

      Just from control.

    10. BS

      Yeah, nonsense. We know this, we know this.

    11. JR

      You guys are talking about. This, I DM this guy, you guys are out of your mind. (laughs)

    12. BS

      (laughs)

    13. JR

      (sighs)

    14. BS

      Oh my God.

    15. JR

      Hmm.

    16. BS

      God. It's my birthday, I get what I want.

    17. JR

      It would be kinda fun to do a fight companion. That might be better.

    18. BS

      They're the best. They're the best.

    19. JR

      Yeah. And we never get to really do them for big UFCs.

    20. BS

      We don't have to go anywhere.

    21. JR

      We don't get to do anything but get fucked up here.

    22. BS

      But legit, once I quit the UFC, like we should travel like one or two in Vegas.

    23. JR

      And do live companions?

    24. BS

      Try this, try this. Yeah, oh.

    25. JR

      From like a dope st-

    26. BS

      What if they would let us?

    27. JR

      From... Well, I don't know if they'll let me, but from like a dope fucking suite.

    28. BS

      Ooh, but you want to be on the floor, man. Yeah, I like your food truck thing. It's pretty, pretty good.

    29. JR

      Thank you, sir.

    30. BS

      With Bader?
