[electronic sounds] All right, so it's been a few days since we last checked in on what's going on here. Tony, you were painting your house.

Tony· Panelist0:09

Yeah.

Dan Le Batard· Host0:09

I don't know if you know this, Dave. Tony was painting his house. He was trying to do it on his own. I would never do that on my own. Tony was trying to do it on his own, and he just like, like, he gave up in the middle. So he's... Y- you've been out there trying to find someone to paint your house. Like, like, you put what? The first coat, and then you just said, "Screw it, I'm done"?

Tony· Panelist0:25

Yeah. So I've been getting quotes on somebody painting the entire house, 'cause we remodeled the house. But we- Inside. Yeah, inside. We put the plaster up, so we need to paint every single wall.

David Samson· Panelist0:33

Oh.

Tony· Panelist0:34

All the ceilings and all that stuff.

David Samson· Panelist0:35

Ugh.

Tony· Panelist0:35

So I looked at the ceilings the first day and I was like, "Yeah, I'm not doing this." So I called up a guy. He did it for a very reasonable price. I got him the paint. He did the work. Everything was great. I'm like, "You know what? To save money..." My wife's like, "Why don't you do some stuff at the house- Oh ... to save money?" And I'm like, "You know what? Perfect. I'm gonna start painting. I'll paint the rooms, and the baseboards- Horrible ... and the c- the casings, and the doors, and all that. That guy'll paint the roof and we're good. In two weeks time, we'll move in. Everything's happy. You know, go lucky, we're good to go."

Dan Le Batard· Host1:00

Two weeks time, [laughs] you fool.

Tony· Panelist1:01

That was two weeks ago. So we, uh... The guy paints the roof. I'm like, "All right. My time to shine, baby." I went to the Home Depot desk, got the paint, five-gallon bucket. I got all the- Those machines are wild, how they make the paint. How they shake the paint. Yeah, it's super cool.

David Samson· Panelist1:14

Da, da, da, da, da, da, da.

Dan Le Batard· Host1:14

Yeah, it's fun.

Tony· Panelist1:14

So I got the paint rollers.

David Samson· Panelist1:16

They shake it real well.

Tony· Panelist1:16

I got the stick to attach it to, like, roll up and down the thing. Start in the first room. Start doing it, I'm like- "This sucks." "This really sucks." [laughs] "Okay. No, this really sucks."

David Samson· Panelist1:27

It sucks.

Tony· Panelist1:27

And it's kind of like an... It's an off-white. So it's like I'm painting
