Transcript
Our next guest is from New Jersey. He is six foot one and a lot of pounds. He is a fat best and the 2,004 most improved player of his JV basketball team. He smells like tuna fish, and he's got an attention problem so bad that he created an Instagram to try to get more people to like him. Ninety two percenters, the loudest breather on the Internet. And did I mention he's fat? Grill guy. Rank, guys. I didn't realize I was that fat.
