All right, everybody. Welcome back, Sam's army episode 2.188. We got a lot to talk about today. This is the ninth and final World Cup 2022 installment, wherein we'll put a bow on an awesome tournament that was fittingly capped off by an incredible final with Argentina and messy coming out on top of France.

We're not sad. It's over. We're ecstatic. It happened and I can't wait to talk about it with these beauties here with me today. First up, we got, well, we got some familiar names and then a blast from the past that we'll get to in just a second. First up, we got Mitchell Goulet aka overtime Mitch, who as we all know is our resident expert and my personal lifeline to what the kids are getting into over on TikTok. So Mitchell, what's the latest trend that I should be scared of?

Do you even have to talk? Do I need to be answering this? It's not really a trend. Do you have any idea what the word Riz means? R-I-Z-Z? No. Rizzo? I know Anthony Rizzo. No, not even close. Look it up. I think it's something that you could use in your day to day life, not often, definitely not often. But I think it's something that you old people should be aware of. What Riz is, it would explain a lot about the internet, but you guys. And you kids. Okay, all right. I'll get inside the minds of the kids.

Checking out Riz and my fellow olds. He can go do a little research. Next up, we got another Goonerville tweedle, the USL champion and current world traveler, Tommy McGunner.

You're in guitar one minute. You're in London the next 10 minutes later. You're in New York. Where the hell are you at right now?

I'm in Florida right now.

You really are all over the place.

All right. How long are you sticking around? I feel like you're just going to bounce back to some foreign land in like 10 minutes from now.

Yeah, this is usually I would say this is like the summer of soccer for me, but I'm still in the northern hemisphere.

So this is my winter of soccer because I'm going back to London and I'm going to catch boxing day games some of your day games and just kind of continue my soccer overload from the World's Cup.

Living our best lives. Enjoy it, sir. All right. Finally, last, but not least a returning guest who has been dying, literally dying to come back on the show for four and a half years texting me on a weekly basis, asking me when it's time to shine.

Well, it's your time to shine. Again, it is Daniel cats back on the program. Great to have you back. How you doing, sir?

I was able to hold my tongue through all those incredible intros, but I just want to get right into it, not to make the World Cup about myself, but has there any, has there ever been anyone who is more vindicated, correct?

Glorious than myself being a day one messy guy and that stupid fuck. Can I swear that stupid fuck?

Cristiano Ronaldo was crying after he played like 10 minutes of his games. He got kicked off his club team. He basically got banished the bench on his national team.

And everyone's been talking about, you know, Ronaldo versus Messi. Now Messi has won literally everything. It's complete vindication. I've been on the right side of history. Again, not to make the World Cup about myself, but it feels great.

I've been in hot as we knew you would as we knew you would to pissed off half the free world there, but no, no, no, no, anyone who I pissed off there has shit for brains.

So like they don't deserve to like have happiness right now because they were wrong and they've been wrong and it's proven correct that Messi is the goat.

He scored a goal in every single knockout stage game. He basically was at Argentina team. I, those people have no, no one to blame, but their own dumb brains.

I love it. I knew you were going to bring that agenda. Are you guys Ronaldo guys? No. Oh, God, no.

Yeah, quite a monologue there. You're good. Okay. Yeah. Right side of history. Good. Good that I'm in with good company.

Now listen, we're not going to make it all about you, but we like to give, you know, people they're shine when they come on and give them little flowers. I know you, you've been sort of, you've been heavy in the podcast game lately.
