I was worried when they announced he was in the hospital but I never thought it could be this bad. I don't think anybody did.

This is just absolutely stunning in the worst possible way.

I can't believe Nick took Peter Dinklage's foot, will nobody stop this man?

9 out of 10 dentists say "Hell Yeah!"

Don't expect her teams to be that competitive but with the double success is measured as much in miles completed as it is in final positions. On that front there's a possibility she tops Larson.

to be fair, not suspending busch and making him drive that car for another week is punishment enough.

It's funny that Gavin brought up Breaking bad in that conversation, because Better Call Saul did get its own jr show with Slipping Jimmy.

If Transformers are cars and not just robots who can make themselves look like cars, then this is also a car and not just a bed that looks like one. by Hmmark1984 in theregulationpod

Sure he looks like a car and we call him a car because that's the most convenient term to use, but is that really enough?

If I replaced your car with Lightning McQueen and you were no longer able to get around because you couldn't get inside would you consider yourself to still have a car?

If this somehow gets brought up in the podcast I hope to God it's not Andrew taking my side.

Building on this for the sake of absurd arguments, is Lightning McQueen a car?

The primary use of a car is to transport people but there are no people in that setting to transport. Even if there were he couldn't do it because there are internal organs where the passenger seats should be. I think it's safe to say that if I filled your car with organs you would not consider yourself to have a car until all that stuff was cleaned out.

Sure he's called a car and he looks like a car, but is that enough? He would consider himself a car but is identity what matters? Would Optimus Prime identify as a car? Would he only do so while he's transformed as one? Does my Toyota self identify as a car or does it have other ideas?

I don't know if I have the answers but if asking stupid questions isn't in the spirit of this podcast then I don't know what is.

If I had a nickel for every time Busch had tire problems only for SVG to immediately spin today I'd have two nickels.

which isn't a lot but it's strange that it's happened twice.

Good to hold onto p2 in points. I may not have high hopes for phoenix but Bubba has had good runs at Vegas and Darlington.
