Arian Foster (0:00)

Hey Macrodosing listeners, you can find us every Tuesday and Thursday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad free on Amazon Music.

PFT Commenter (0:08)

Hey PFT, I'll be here watching college football. I know you love to talk about how much college football you watch, but you enjoy, you enjoy that vacation.

Arian Foster (0:14)

The crazy thing is, Big T, they make TVs in Michigan.

PFT Commenter (0:18)

I know, you're, listen, you enjoy your time, that you're going to be at the beach grilling and have a wonderful time. I'll be here watching the tape.

Big T (0:38)

Tell me about the Michigan. Well, I got double house Bernie Sanders head.

Arian Foster (0:42)

It's nice. I sold a book too.

Big T (0:45)

Oh, congrats. New York Times bestseller out number one.

Arian Foster (0:51)

Yeah.

Big T (0:54)

And this is not to discredit your book.

I'm not going to read it, but I'm sure it's amazing, right? But a lot of people say that they did New York Times number one bestseller. What does it mean to be a New York Times number one bestseller?

Arian Foster (1:08)

There's a lot of different lists that you can get on. There's fiction, nonfiction. Somehow our book got put on the how to self-help section.

Big T (1:17)

Okay.

Arian Foster (1:17)

Which is kind of crazy. But we sold more. I think we sold 30,000 more books than anybody else on any list that week.

Mad Dog (1:26)

That's crazy. So, yeah.

Big T (1:28)

So it would have been 30,000 books at all. It's fucking crazy.

Arian Foster (1:31)

It's number one on any list, no matter what the category is going to be kind of crazy. Yeah.

Big T (1:39)

Wow. What else? What a fan base y'all have, bro.

Congrats, brother.

Arian Foster (1:43)

Yeah.

It's pretty cool, kind of surreal. The first time I got introduced as a number one bestselling author was actually at Camp Barstool when we did a pre-show for Poor Decisions, where I didn't even say a single word. It was a 30-second show. And then Connor Griffin introduced me, and then he's like, and now we got to go. Thank you for tuning in. And that was the end of the show, which was a perfect place to experience that for the first time. What a company.

PFT Commenter (2:10)

I love that for you. Are you going to put that? Do you think that's going to be like, where in your obituary is number one New York Times bestseller going to be? Are you going to be like Thomas Jefferson? You're like, I don't want that in there.

Arian Foster (2:21)

I'm going to found a university.

PFT Commenter (2:22)

Yeah.

Arian Foster (2:22)

And that will be number one. Yeah.

PFT Commenter (2:26)

What does his say? It says father of the Constitution, father or founder of the University of Virginia and the Virginia Statute of Religious Freedom or something. Yeah.

Arian Foster (2:39)

I think those are, I think you might have gone three for three. Let's see. Thomas Jefferson. It's on like the statue, right?

PFT Commenter (2:46)

I think it's his gravestone. They wanted to put president and all that. He said, I don't want that.

Arian Foster (2:53)

Yeah.

SPEAKER_6 (2:55)

Kind of arrogant.

Arian Foster (2:57)

Yeah.

Three specific inscriptions that he chose himself. Author of the Declaration of American Independence of the Statue of Virginia for Religious Freedom and father of the University of Virginia.

SPEAKER_7 (3:09)

Father.

Arian Foster (3:10)

It's pretty good things. Pretty good things to be known for, I'd say.

PFT Commenter (3:14)

Yeah. Declaration, not Constitution.

SPEAKER_7 (3:16)

Yeah.

Arian Foster (3:18)

That was James Madison. That is the Constitution guy.

PFT Commenter (3:21)

Right. Shout out.

Arian Foster (3:23)

Yes. Shout out. You guys want to do some voicemails?

Big T (3:26)

Okay. So before we get to Eddie voicemail, you weren't on the last pod, so I want to get your take because some new developments have happened with this Nancy Clancy stuff.

PFT Commenter (3:39)

Lindsay.

Big T (3:40)

Lindsay Clancy stuff.

Arian Foster (3:41)

Nancy Clancy. Sounds like a kids' children's book.

How to talk to your kids about mommy's mistake.

Big T (3:49)

That's probably Nancy Clancy.

Where do you stand on this shit? Because I have had new developments. So it was deadlocked, and there's one guy holding the line for, no, lock this bitch up. And 11 people are like, no, she's innocent because she was crazy. And this is what's throwing me off. I have a family group chat that the women in my life love them to death. They're not defending her actions, but what they're doing is they're saying, you don't know what it's like to have postpartum. She was reaching out for help, yada, yada, yada, yada, yada, yada. And I'm just like, I don't give a fuck about any of that shit. And they're like, yeah, because you have no empathy, blah, blah, blah. Going in on me. And I'm just like, what the fuck is going on? Because these are usually rational women that lean in the same political ideology as me.
