Welcome back to Macrodosing. Today is Thursday, and it is August 27th. We got a twofer coming up. We're gonna start off here at Camp Barstool with Jerry, Memes and Dante joining us. And then we're gonna kick it back to the studio where Big T, Arian, Mad Dog and Chaps sat down and did an interview with a F-16 Thunderbird pilot. I had to miss the interview, unfortunately.

**Big T** (0:38)
Crime.

**PFT Commenter** (0:38)
Had a doctor, yeah. Had a doctor's interview. Brandon Crime Maxson. Crime is his call sign, but they're talking to the Thunderbirds pilot, so that's going to come after the hour and a half with Jerry, Dante and Memes helping to produce here at Camp Barstool. So here we go.
All right. Welcome back to Macrodosing. We're going to do a two-parter here today. We are live at Camp Barstool with myself, Big T, Mad Dog, joined by Dante the Don and Jerry O'Connell.

**Jerry O'Connell** (1:26)
Hey, everybody.

**PFT Commenter** (1:27)
Good friends, quasi-lovers, mental lovers, you two. You have a spiritual connection.

**Jerry O'Connell** (1:34)
Yeah. I do want to apologize, Dante. After you guys interviewed Hunter, Dante did reach out to me and I didn't reach back.
I'm really sorry.

**Dante Fowler Jr.** (1:46)
It's funny, it's like you have a life outside us or something.

**Jerry O'Connell** (1:49)
You know what? I would say that. I got to say, Hunter Biden is, I mean, no offense, but I'm allowed to talk about it here. He's a strange guy to me.

**PFT Commenter** (2:02)
That's fine.

**Jerry O'Connell** (2:03)
He's a strange guy to me. I'm going to come out and say it. He's not as, I think there should be a, I think he should show a touch more remorse about what he put his old man through.

**Dante Fowler Jr.** (2:17)
You're an enigma.

**Jerry O'Connell** (2:18)
Why?

**Dante Fowler Jr.** (2:20)
I would not expect that.

**Jerry O'Connell** (2:22)
Yeah, I just think, I just think he should open, he shouldn't open with, well, you know, the conservatives have been attacking me for this has been years. He should open with, Dad, I am so sorry. This must have been so difficult for you. I want to open with, I am so sorry. And I know people, how many times can I apologize and all that stuff? For the fourth, while he's out there doing all these interviews, that should be his opening statement. First of all, hey, hold on a second, Macrodosing, before we get into anything, where's my camera? Dad, I'm so sorry I put you through that. It must have been so tough watching what I was going through, being in such the public eye.
I'm sorry to say it. Very well said. I'm really sorry to say this, I'm a little fired up right now.
He becomes the victim in this whole thing. He was attacked, he's the victim. And at some point, he has to say, this was me, and I am ashamed. And I saw him say, I'm trying to repair everything, and I understand that. But it may have been like years for him at this point, but it's still pretty fresh in all of our minds, you know? And I'm going to go as far as to say, while some of his actions, I think, really affected the course of history. 100%, yeah. And if people are, if you're upset with how the course of history may be turned out, you can say like, hey, dude, like, and here's another thing about it.
If you say, I'm really sorry, people are like, yeah, it's okay, man. Like if you're really, people are really willing to forgive, you know, if you just come out and say, this is what I did wrong, it's called taking accountability. If I do anything wrong, I immediately say to myself, I've got to apologize to this person.

**PFT Commenter** (4:31)
What about the fantasy draft last year? What about Jaden Daniels cursing him? Have you ever, have you apologized for that?

**Jerry O'Connell** (4:37)
Yeah, I am sorry.

**PFT Commenter** (4:38)
You changed the course of history.

**Jerry O'Connell** (4:39)
Okay, you know, for those who maybe don't listen to, Jerry, you're just assuming everyone who listens to part of my take listens to Macrodosing.
I drafted Jaden Daniels PFT as a big Commanders fan, and I said he was gonna break records, and then he got injured in a horrific elbow injury. I'm not gonna apologize for that, because I didn't change the course of history. Like, let's be honest, I am gonna apologize to you for not drafting Jackson Smith Najigba in the third round, he ended up being the most prolific offensive player of the year. But nobody wants to talk about fantasy football here.
