The other side of the story. A while back, Parker McCollum was a guest on comedian Theo Von’s podcast This Past Weekend podcast, where he told an absolutely insane story about a wild night he had with his friend, fellow Texan Koe Wetzel, at a shady strip club outside of Waco. They were on tour for their first Naughty or Nice Christmas run circa 2017, and the night ended with them kicking down drywall at the place they were staying in, after Koe punched out a mirror in the strip club and crawled through the street, obviously very intoxicated. You can read the whole thing HERE, and I'd highly recommend it because it's really a crazy tale. And today, Koe was a guest on Theo's podcast, where he told his side of the story when they started talking about Waco: "Waco is where, so when Parker was on, he told you that story about that strip club or whatever we went to, that's right outside of Waco." Theo asked: "Is it a good spot?" Koe told him it was the "the sh*ttiest strip club in the world," adding that apparently, it needed to be "redecorated," so he decided to help with the demolition: "No, its' the sh*ttiest strip club in the world... but it needed to be redecorated, I guess, so I just gave it to 'em. It was just mirrors everywhere, and I was like, man, f*** one of these mirrors, bro. Dude, I found the pictures that he  was talking about, like, us kicking holes in the drywall and sh*t. So somebody had found them and sent 'em to me , and I was like, 'Oh, f*** man.' It just us kinda like passed out next to 'em, drywall everywhere. We had some good times." Okay, he can't tell that story and talk about the photos and then not show them to us... The story ended when Parker remembered being woken up the next morning, to Koe helping him get his boots off at 5:30, still not having gone to sleep himself, saying: “And I wake up at like 5:30 in the morning, Koe is still awake, yanking my boots off. And he’s just going ‘I’ll never let you sleep in your boots, P. I’ll never let..’ and just yanking my clothes off of me. That was like one of the first times him and I had been on the road together, and I was like, this guy means business.” All’s well that ends well, I guess, right? They've obviously slowed it down a lot since then, and Koe also told Theo that he quit drinking whiskey this year because he started having to cancel shows and couldn't perform they way he should... I guess everyone grows up eventually, even if in their own little way... It's a great podcast and conversation with Koe, and you can watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/QnOrhJ4kgMg?t=2983 Koe also told more of that crazy story the last time he was on our podcast, Whiskey Riff Raff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18YMW61ifq8 Koe just released a new holiday project called Wetzel’s Wonderland Chapter 2, which includes three covers of Christmas staples including “Run Run Rudolph,” “Merry Christmas Baby,” and “Silver Bells.” He has two more shows on the calendar for 2024, both in Texas to celebrate the Christmas EP and holiday season.

When you’ve been celebrating a holiday one way your entire life, it’s easy to assume that’s the way it’s celebrated everywhere—but things are a bit different across the pond.

We give you an obscure word with four definitions—one correct, three made up. Can you identify the correct one?

U.S. stocks rose after new inflation data bolstered expectations the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates next week. Prices rose 2.7% in the 12 months through November, the consumer-price index showed. That was right in line with consensus expectations, and up from a 2.6% rate as of October. Core prices, which exclude volatile food and energy costs, were up 3.3%, also matching forecasts, the report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics showed. While price pressures remain...

Consumer price index data showed that progress lowering core inflation remained stuck in November, but the details were less concerning than the headline numbers. The S&P 500 rose solidly after the CPI release, as markets priced in nearly 100% odds of a Federal Reserve rate cut next week. Still, stubbornly high inflation and a buoyant S&P 500 may lead Fed policymakers to signal fewer-than-expected rate cuts in 2025 next week, when they update quarterly projections. The overall CPI...
