Jerry Jones' one oil well earned $100M
Jerry Jones struck a single oil well that earned him $100 million, which he immediately used to purchase the Dallas Cowboys.
Where this was said
Cowboys Documentary, Monica's Birthday Luck, and 11:11
At 1:28:50 · chapter starts 1:26:00
Dax declares 'America's Team: The Gambler and His Cowboys' the best documentary he's seen since The Last Dance, recounting Jerry Jones' origin story — a young wildcatter $100 million in debt who struck one oil well and immediately bought the Cowboys, which are now worth $13 billion. He gently gets called out for asking Rob (the male producer) rather than Monica about a sports doc, even though Monica loves The Last Dance. Meanwhile Monica reports her birthday weekend birthday luck: her room at the Four Seasons was numbered 1111, matching her tassel moment at the Bowery. Rob pulls up a photo apparently showing Jennifer Aniston has 11:11 tattooed on her wrist, which tips Monica toward finally getting the tattoo she'd been considering — perhaps between her toes to be discreet.
The Acupuncturist Who Saw Right Through Her
Jackie went to a Korean-Russian mother-daughter acupuncture team in Silver Lake and immediately started joking through her medical history to make it easier for the acupuncturist to handle. The acupuncturist saw exactly what was happening and said six words: 'You don't have to entertain anybody.' It's the kind of thing Jackie had heard before, but this time it landed.
Cowboys franchise valued at $13 billion
The Dallas Cowboys are the most valuable sports franchise in the world, with an estimated value of $13 billion, according to the Cowboys documentary.
Travis, Taylor, and the Bracelet Theory
Travis Kelce went to a Taylor Swift concert hoping to give her a bracelet with his number. He couldn't reach her, said so on his podcast, she heard it and reached out. Dax and Monica debate whether the same story would work if a woman did it — and conclude the charm was the unexpected pairing of a huge NFL player being a Swiftie, not the gender dynamics.
