**Hammer** (0:30)
We had a trip to Indianapolis last weekend. Good seeing you in person last weekend. How are you? It was lovely and crazy all at the same time. What was crazy about it? Okay, because I bought fever tickets to see Kaylin Clark, and I don't know, maybe it's a Chicago thing that when you buy tickets and you see 200 level, you think they're gonna be pretty decent tickets. But at the Gamerage Field House, the 200 level actually means second to the last row, where honestly, the lady that was throwing down the parachutes onto the crowd with like free stuff or whatever, she was eye level with us. I could hear her say to my son, this one is for you and threw it at him. I was like $58 to stand next to the lady on the ceiling. I'm going to redo this whole entire trip next time. Hey, look, because I know you went to the Children's Museum. Awesome. You had the pleasure of dining out with Hammer after.
It was one for the books. So look, talk about Barguments real quick. What are Barguments and how do you play?
Barguments is a simple, easy game that I made into a podcast. It really is the kind of stuff you argue with your friends at a bar, barbecue, barbershop, anywhere where you gather around and do the, what would you rather, what ifs, you're about to rush more, anything like that. I made a podcast where you can download it anywhere you get your podcast. There's a YouTube videos of it as well. And a really cool Facebook group that is very active and very alive and well, churning out Barguments 24-7. If you guys are ready to rock Hammerless and all, let's do one right now. All right, what is it? What is this week's Barguments here? This one would be the perfect song to play at a divorce party. Fantastic.
Dear God, I hope I never have to make this decision for real, Guy.

**Guy Relford** (2:23)
I love this segment. This is just so cool because this is exactly the kind of discussions you can have sitting at a bar. That's why this is brilliant. And I love this question. Now, it's tough for me as a very happily married guy.

**Nigel** (2:34)
Me too. Me too. Me too.

**Guy Relford** (2:36)
But perhaps in the distant past, having gone through a divorce or two, I can probably come up with something.

**Hammer** (2:46)
I will also say, since the pandemic, I have a lot more friends. I got divorced and married. And I've been to a couple of these parties where we actually had to shuffle through a few of them. Divorce parties actually a thing?
It's become a thing when your boys are back on the loose and you're like, I didn't see that one lasting as long as it did.

**Nigel** (3:04)
Let's have a party.

**Guy Relford** (3:05)
You've never been out with a buddy for a divorce party?

**Hammer** (3:07)
I never have. Party, strip club, you call it whatever you want to call it.

**Nigel** (3:11)
If any woman's getting divorced, I'd be happy to DJ it.

**Hammer** (3:16)
Trust me, the chicks have them too. The chicks have them too. But these are, I guess this one, Bass, let's start with you. Let's start with you. The perfect song to play at a divorce party. The one that always made me laugh was Guns N Roses. I used to love her, but I had to kill her. All right.
If I'm not mistaken, Bass, that's Lies, Lies, Lies.
I believe so. The album Lies, Lies, Lies, which came out after Appetite for Destruction, obviously. Well done. Well done. All right. I'm going to go next. If anybody, if that's OK, this is the perfect song to play at a divorce party and Gloria Gainer. Ladies and gentlemen, I will survive.

**Matt Bear** (4:41)
This is the football move. It wasn't the one with Keanu Reeves where they're dancing in prison.

**Hammer** (4:46)
The Replacements.

**Matt Bear** (4:46)
The Replacements.

**Nigel** (4:47)
That's it.

**Hammer** (4:49)
I thought you were just saying words. I didn't know that was a real movie.

**Matt Bear** (4:52)
Oh, it's a real movie.

**Guy Relford** (4:54)
I mean, I will survive.

**Hammer** (4:56)
That one movie with Keanu Reeves is a good path to always go on, let alone it actually does exist. That's the next Barguments. But I will survive. I mean, like she's talking about, like she's devastated. The guy left her and then she's on the rebound. And then the guy wants her back. I mean, it's basically the MO for the opposite of what I went through when I would break up with a girl.
