  Speaker 1: So question of the hour here in hour three. Do
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: you believe Drew Rosenhaus, the super agent... that there is
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: a ton of interest in wide receiver Tyreek Hill, but
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: he's going to wait until October playing it safe. Also,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: are we really that close to the first $ 100 million
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: a year NFL player? Some say that's the case. And
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson says he is going to showcase he can
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: still play for the Browns. How does that sound to you?

• 2:37
  Speaker 1: it's not Thursday. It's from the NFL in general. But
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: there was a game last time. We're going to start
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: with that here. We're not going to start that again
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: this hour. But we tell you the Patriots were leading
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: most of the game. Low scoring game in the end, though.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: They slipped on the banana peel there. Drake May did.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Not one, not two, three interceptions. As Seattle, not very impressive.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Didn't play like a well-coached team there. They're back up
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: in third down. Two of 11 for Seattle in the game.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: And they had 10 penalties for 98 yards. 10 penalties
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: for 98 yards. The only touchdown that the Patriots scored
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: was an underthrown ball by Drake May. And that led
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: to a key pass interference call. in that game so
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: new england off to the oh and one start they
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: actually have to play a real schedule this year which
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: seems to be problematic at least so far so our
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: lead this hour though is not from that game it's
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: from the grasslands where free agent wide receiver looking for
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: the greener grass tyreek hill his comeback has been delayed
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: yeah oh you're so bummed out i know what a
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: downer Yeah, doctors recommending that he wait until October, possibly
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: later than that, to resume his NFL career. So if
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: you didn't see this or hear about it, maybe not.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Agent Drew Rosenhaus, the legendary NFL agent, says that Tyreek
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Hill is progressing well, but they're playing it on the
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: safe side. That's the. The money quote, or one of
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: the money quotes. Now, Hill is recovering from what has
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: been described by many who cover medicine. There are people
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: that cover medicine. A catastrophic left knee injury. His left
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: knee was left looking like pulled pork. He had a dislocation,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: multiple torn ligaments. Snap, crackle, pop, including the ACL that
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: went to hell. Now, Rosenhaus, the super agent claiming that
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: there is, quote, a ton of interest, close quote, from
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: NFL teams, but says Hill will not sign anywhere until
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: he's 100% healthy and ready to contribute. So that is
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: a good jumping-off point. Let us discuss. Let us discuss.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: So here we go. The question, do you believe, Drew Rosenhaus,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: that there is a, quote, ton of interest in And
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: wide receiver Tyreek Hill, but he's playing it safe until
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: he's 100%. That's what he says. So I've got Banana Boat,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Mall of America, and Sixth Street Bridge. And we'll combine
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: all of these things together, and we're going to make
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: a gas guzzler. This is going to be a gas
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: guzzler game. And we're not playing tiddlywinks here. We're not.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: All right. So to kick off the festivities, do we
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: believe Drew Rosenhaus that there is a ton of interest
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: in wide receiver Tyreek Hill? And he's just waiting to
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: be 100 percent. Yeah, I believe more in the tooth
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: fairy running for president in the next presidential cycle. I
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: believe that our next president will be the tooth fairy.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: and the vice president will be the Easter Bunny. That's
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: what I believe. When I hear a ton of interest,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: it is one of the great phrases in the sporting world.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: In the industrial complex of sport, a ton of interest
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: is right alongside productive conversations, multiple teams calling, or my
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: personal favorite, mystery team. I love a mystery team. Oh,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: my God. It is so good. It is so, so good.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: But let's keep it real here. So Tyreek Hill was
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: once appointment television back in his salad days as the
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: cheetah in Kansas City. Now he is appointment with an
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: orthopedic surgeon. Television is what he is. That's about it.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: And if you're truly waiting for him to be 100 percent,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: he'll never play again in the NFL. The cheetah has
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: gone from the fastest man in football to an NFL
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: restoration project at this particular point. And enter Drew Rosenhaus,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: a card shark of an NFL poker guy. He's like
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: a Bellagio poker table playing cards there. He's telling everyone
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: he's holding all these aces and all that. And you're like, yeah, right,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: you're not holding any aces. Rosenhaus is the kind of
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: guy who could sell banana boat sunscreen to You know,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: in Alaska, you know that town in Alaska where they
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: go like 60 days without getting sunlight? Yeah, he'd go
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: there at the start of that 60 days where they're
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: just in darkness, like just the furthest northern town in Alaska.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: He'd be out there with a stand selling banana boat
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: sunscreen and he'd sell out of it. And so why
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: would you buy that? There's two months with no sun.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Why would you bother doing that? Rosenhouse is the kind
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: of guy if if he could go back in time.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: and represent the Titanic just after it hit the iceberg,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: he would sell people that, yeah, it's a swimming pool
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: and it got upgraded. The swimming pool on the Titanic
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: is really large now. And you can dive and go
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: all the way to the bottom of the Atlantic. That's
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: how big the swimming pool is. It's great. Yeah, you
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: might get attacked by a whale, but it's really cool.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: So Tyreek is damaged goods, capital D, damaged goods. He's
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: got the designer label still attached. And Drew's job is
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: to sell the sizzle, sizzle, when nobody knows whether Tyreek
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: Hill can still provide the steak. So it's a story
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: we'll have all season, really, because I don't think he's
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: going to sign in October. And then it's like, was
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: he going to wait and try to figure out which
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: team is... going to need a wide receiver. Somebody's going
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: to get hurt. Well, we already saw it one game in,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: and A.J. Brown's already dinged up for the Patriots. I'm
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: sure some bleeding-heart blogger is already posting, Tyree Kill to
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: save the Patriots season if A.J. Brown's out for a
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: long time. All right, now, furthermore, to the money, money, money, money, money, money, money,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: the money machine, whispers in hushed tones that we are
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: headed at a rapid rate to a ginormous leap in
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: the quarterback money market. NFL quarterbacks are going to begin
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: asking for $ 100 million per season as soon as next
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: NFL season, 2027, is the next cycle. Why?
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: The rapidly rising salary cap. TV money keeps coming in.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Players get a percentage of the TV money. League revenues,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: those go up, up, and away. And so they have
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: a lot more money every year to spend and a
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: higher amount of money because the percentages are the same,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: but the total money goes up. This is not economics 101,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: just play along. The quarterback market has already reached the
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: $ 60 million salary per year. Baker Mayfield, mid-level, jag of
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: a quarterback, just a guy. Baker Mayfield gets an extension
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: averaging $ 55 million a year there with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: So elite quarterbacks historically command about 20% of the salary cap.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: So that's the sweet spot, 20% of the salary cap.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: And knowing what we know about NFL revenues, thanks to
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers being a publicly owned team, and
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: given the ammunition that the agents will use here to
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: justify the These massive contracts, $ 100 million annually, they say
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: may arrive in 2027. All right, question. Are we really
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: that close to having the first $ 100 million a year
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: NFL player? So I am going to nod my head yes.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: We were at a big fork in the road. six
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: years ago during the pandemic, and that was the point.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: If this was going to go back to salaries going
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: down a little bit and things becoming more calm in
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: terms of revenue, it would have happened when there were
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: no fans in the NFL stadiums during the pandemic season.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: That didn't happen. They survived that, and so here we are,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: TVs dying, and the only thing people watch live on
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: TV is... NFL football. They're the last of the Mohegans.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: That's it. So you've got death. You've got taxes and
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: NFL contracts going completely bonkers. The three guarantees in American life.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: And the quarterback salary structure has gone kerfluey, kabluey, and
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: straight through the drywall like the Kool-Aid man. Oh, yeah.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: $ 100 million a year. Wrap your head around that for
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: 17 regular season games. And the thing that's hilarious to
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: me about this $ 100 million deal, people get very worked
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: up about round numbers and $ 100 million is a big
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: milestone to cross over. And I remember when I was
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: a kid, there used to be these things called magazines.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: And it was like people used to read magazines. What
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: a bunch of boomers. And I remember there was a story.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: There used to be this thing called Sports Illustrated before
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: they whored themselves out to do like gambling and anything.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Now they're complete whores over there at Sports Illustrated. But
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: it used to be respected. People used to look up
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: to Sports Illustrated, the swimsuit magazine. But there was an issue.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: I think it was like Kirby Puckett became the first
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: $ 3 million man in baseball or something like that of
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: the twins. I think it was Kirby Puckett. And people
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: lost their mind. And I know that was a long
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: time ago, but here we are, and we're not that
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: far away from $ 100 million. Now, the part of the
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: story that I love, right after we get to $ 100 million,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: about six months later, somebody will complain that he's underpaid
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: while making $ 100 million. The basic Maler math, addition, multiplication,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: and absolutely no subtraction. That's NFL Maler math. Addition, multiplication,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: absolutely no subtraction. So the salary cap isn't a ceiling anymore.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like an escalator at the Mall of America.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Everybody is riding up. It only goes up. It does
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: not go down. And NFL owners cry poverty. with $ 100
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: bills falling out of their pockets. And I continue to
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: maintain the NFL has moved on from monopoly money. They
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: no longer just deal with monopoly money. The NFL has
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: graduated to El Chapo drug cartel money. They just have.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: It's the way it is. And the quarterbacks, they get
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: the most of it. So yesterday's $ 50 million a year player,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: People gasped about that. Tomorrow, $ 100 million gets called a
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: hometown discount before long. That's always great. Hometown discount.
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: Just like I love these stories about the Rams having
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: to travel to Australia and the 49ers and the hardship
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: while they sit on a luxury plane where everyone's got
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: their own bed and they've got Wi-Fi and they've got
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: people monitoring their health. And I just laugh. I just laugh.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: So the NFL will have achieved the impossible soon, making
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: a $ 60 million quarterback look like they're playing as a
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: working class person. It's like a working class wage in
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: the NFL if you're making $ 60 million, while charging the
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: actual working class $ 38 for a beer and $ 100 to
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: park three counties away from the stadium. I hope you
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: brought your walking shoes. All right, last thing, we go
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: to the land. What land would that be? That would
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: be Cleveland as the Browns continue to be hornswoggled by
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson, the Browns quarterback, Deshaun Watson, who is going
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: to start Sunday's season opener. That'll be his first regular
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: season game since way back in 2024 when his Achilles popped. Well,
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: he shredded it there. That was in 2024. So Cleveland
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: is giving Watson the keys to the factory of sadness
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: here to open up the season. But nothing beyond that
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: game is guaranteed. Now, Watson, he was asked about all this.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: He views the upcoming NFL season as an addition. He's
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: auditioning for the job long term. He says, you know,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: this is my gig. I want to prove people that
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: I can get it done. Prove to people entering year 10.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: And the final year, I believe, of guaranteed money in
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: his contract there, he wants to prove that he can
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: still play. He said, quote, this is my opportunity to
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: get up there and go and showcase that I can
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: still play in this league. He's relishing the opportunity. So
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: the question, Deshaun Watson says that he is going to
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: showcase he can still play for the Brownies. How does
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: that sound to you? No. So only in professional sports,
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: only in professional sports does collecting a fortune while barely
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: playing set you up for some kind of Hollywood redemption story.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: It's hilarious. It's absolutely hilarious. Now, Deshaun Watson has played
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: 19 games in five years. Can you imagine if you
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: showed up to work 19 times in five years, would
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: you still have a job? Showing up for 19 games
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: in five years, that is not a career. It's more
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: like a timeshare is what it is. And Cleveland thought
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: they were buying this penthouse apartment on the Upper East Side,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: but they ended up. With squatters' rights. And that's what
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: they have, squatters' rights. And so Watson, a lot of
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: people don't know about this, but on my drive into
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: the studio, I go through downtown Los Angeles, and there's
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: this bridge called the Sixth Street Bridge. And they spent
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: years and years and a lot of money fixing up
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: the Sixth Street Bridge. And when I drive by it,
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: I think it's the perfect metaphor for Deshaun Watson. Deshaun
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Watson is like the Sixth Street Bridge in L.A. It
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: opened after a lot of money was invested, and it
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: was celebrated as this artistic landmark. Just beautiful. I remember
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: when they first turned on the lights. Man, was that
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: just a piece of civic pride and beauty. And then,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: of course, over time, in this case, just a couple
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: of days, people came along, the natives, and stripped the
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: copper wiring on that bridge, turning out the lights, covered
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: it in graffiti. And the bottom is like a fentanyl hideout.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: It's actually pretty funny. They're going to open a park
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: under the Sixth Street Bridge, and it's already covered in
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: graffiti and disgusting. Anyway, it's kind of like Deshaun Watson.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like Deshaun Watson. The perfect metaphor. The
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: copper wiring has been stripped away. And it's just a
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: total mess. And so forget damaged goods. He's water-damaged merchandise
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: sitting behind the store while Cleveland's warranty expires. He's the
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: $ 230 million fixer-upper Deshaun Watson, where every time you open
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: a wall, you find another disaster. The money pit. The
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: money pit. And it's not a reclamation project. Now, the Browns,
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: what they would love... is Deshaun Watson to go down
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: and play really great football, really great football for like
• 18:56

• 22:51
  Speaker 1: A young woman driving by herself, and she was assaulted
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: by a cockroach. Can we call the LAPD on that, maybe?
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: No?
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: No, but a cop drove by three times while I
• 23:01

• 23:19
  Speaker 1: used against you in the court of the Mallard Militia.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: So please, please act accordingly. Here is your Mallard Riddle
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: of the Day. Broncos wide receiver Cortland Sutton compared his
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: quarterback Bo Nix to a blank. That is the question.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: What's the answer? And let's see what we have here.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: King Roy says a pickle lover. A pickle lover from
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: King Rory. Donkey Sausage says a semi-pro poker player, former
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: child movie star is the answer. What else do we have?
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Nikki Sixx from Late Night Drug Tester. Used to work
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: in our building, Nikki Sixx, back in the day. Not anymore.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: It was funny watching him at the ATM machine, Nikki Sixx.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: I enjoyed that. I thought that was pretty funny. Big
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: rock legend at the ATM machine. OG Art Puffin said,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: Courtland compared Bo Nix to a wet dream. Feels great,
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: but not quite real. Yeah, not quite the real deal.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: Stevie Meatball says he compared quarterback Bo Nix to a
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: super buff Stevie Nix. Good to hear from Stevie Meatballs,
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: the legend. Alf the Alien O'Piner said, a fashionista is
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: the answer. A Palo Verde beetle from Analog Al. Is
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: that the type of... Oh, you were talking about cockroach,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: not a Palo Verde beetle.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: It's different.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: Not a burner, says Lucky Tony's new Lego toy. Oh,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: that's pretty funny. That is pretty funny. What else do
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: we have?
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: Let's see.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Page down. A reptilian from Inca Terror. Not a gray.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: I think our athletes, when we cross... The species of
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: the alien world and the greys and the reptilians and
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: all the others. There's four different, if you believe, the interweb.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: And the interweb is never wrong. I always believe the interweb.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: So there are four types of critters. The UFO world,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: the four types, the greys, the reptilians, the Nordics, and
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: the insectoids. I'm going that the Reptilians will be the
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: great athletes. I don't think the Grays will be. Small bodies,
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: big heads. The Nordics could be pretty good in the NBA.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: They're tall, and they kind of glow. I think they
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: might be all right there. And then the Insectoids... It's possible.
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: They've got that hive mind. All right, back to the answer, though.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Let's see. Who else do we have? Georgia Boy. Oh,
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: that was for Ask Ben. I better not use that.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: That's for Ask Ben. What else do we have? Page Dan.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Lincoln Logs. That was guessed. Anybody play with Lincoln Logs anymore?
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: Fill her up, Phil. I'm going no. I'm going no
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: on that. Let's see here. I can't read that. The
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: Tattoo Baker said he called him blank, blank. All right.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: One more time. Lorena, here we go. One more time.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: Malarula Day. Broncos wide receiver Cortland Sutton compared quarterback Bo
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: Nix to blank. A sloth. A sloth. Is that correct?
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: Survey says. No, that is not correct. The correct answer,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Broncos wide receiver Cortland Sutton compared quarterback Bo Nix to
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: a mountain lion pacing in a zoo, saying you don't
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: want to let him out. Bo Nix, a mountain lion.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Let's go to the phones. 877-99-ON-FOX is the call-in number.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: That's 877-996-6369. Eeny, meeny, miny, moe. Pick a caller by
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: their name, and let's say hello to... Let's go to 2% Chance.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: One of my favorite nicknames we've ever given out. 2% Chance. Hello, 2% Chance.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: Hey, man. Appreciate you taking the call. I wanted to
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: talk a little. Drake May, people jumping the gun. I'm
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: not sure if you're aware of this. I'm a huge
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: Bills fan. So I always have believed Josh Allen has
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: owned that division. And a lot of people thought Drake
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: May is about to surpass him. I knew it was
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: just not realistic. In the past two games alone for
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Drake May, he's thrown five picks, he's had a fumble,
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: and he's been sacked nine times. All these people that
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: jump the gun and put this guy in the top five,
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: it's ridiculous. He's got a lot of talent. If I'm
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: a Patriots fan, I'm excited about the future, you know
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: what I mean? But he is not... He's not that
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: dude yet. He's not in the category of Lamar, Mahomes,
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: or Josh.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: Well, to be fair, 2% chance, the Patriots did make
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl last year, and your boy, your guy,
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: has not done that. So there is that. Drake May,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: or as we like to call him now, Drake May,
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: does deserve to be goofed on the way that he
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: played in the game on Wednesday night. He sucked at
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: a time you cannot suck, and that's on him. You're
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: supposed to be an MVP-level quarterback, and he did not
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: make the players around him better. And so that's a problem.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: And by the way, I'm aware you're a Bills fan.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: You know why I'm aware you're a Bills fan, 2% chance?
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: Why is that?
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: Because every time you call, you tell me you're a
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: Bills fan. That's why I know you're a Bills fan.
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: And I love you. I love you for that.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: The reason he made the Super Bowl last year is
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: because he had the third easiest schedule in the past
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: 50 years, and he got to play a backup to
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: get to the Super Bowl.
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you still have to win the games. They
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: still have to go out there and play the games
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: and all that. So there is a factor that in.
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: The Bills have had opportunities and they've had teams and
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: they've choked in the playoffs. And last year against the Broncos,
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: if I remember, if I remember correctly, I'll go back,
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: check my notes. I'm pretty sure that Josh Allen did
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: the thing you can't do at the time. You can't
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: do it.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: You're talking about the last play of the game? Why
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: don't you go back and watch that last play of
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: the game where he throws a dime in overtime, hits
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: the guy right in the chest, he falls to the ground, and.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: He gets ripped out of his hands. Now we're getting propaganda.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Thank you. Go away. That's propaganda. Bill's propaganda. I don't
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: need that. Let's see here. Let's go to... Boy, oh boy.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: What a board.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: Mike the Leprechaun. Let's see. He's going to defend the Patriots. Hello,
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Mike the Leprechaun. Welcome.
• 30:30
  Speaker 5: I will not defend Drake May.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: That was terrible.
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: Good.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: Don't do it.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: I have two F-words for him. Fool and fart.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Two F-words. Okay.
• 30:42
  Speaker 5: At least Lorena is liked by the cockroaches.
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: That's good, huh?
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: What's that?
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: At least the cockroaches like Lorena.
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just don't understand why she was... It's very
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: hot here right now. There's a big heat dome or
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: whatever the hell they're calling it. There's a tropical storm
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: from Mexico off the coast here. It's El Nino.
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: El Nino.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: Can you even buy a car without air conditioning? Seriously.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: Do they even sell... In Ireland, you can. In Ireland.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: We're not in Ireland. I'm talking about in America. Can
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: you actually buy a car with... You can't, right?
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: Okay. I don't think you could, but I think you
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: could buy a six-seat.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Every car has an air conditioner. So just use the
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: air conditioner. That's my point.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: Yesterday you said there would be a bombshell about Mike Brable.
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: Did it ever drop?
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: No. No. It turned out nothing dropped. I was waiting
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: when I woke up. I was like, all right, what's
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: the story about Brable? Nothing happened. So I guess we're
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: in the clear. If it was going to drop, it
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: would have dropped yesterday.
• 31:50
  Speaker 5: Technically, the Pats lost.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it would have.
• 31:52
  Speaker 5: It would have been out there yesterday before the game. Technically,
• 31:56
  Speaker 5: the Pats lost by three points. Does that mean they
• 31:58
  Speaker 5: covered the spread?
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: They did not. They ended up pushing, which meant you
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: got your money back. And if you bet early, you
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: did win with the Patriots because it was three and
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: a half. It obviously went down to three before kickoff
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: on DraftKings, so that changed it. But, yeah, at one
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: point it was. You would have been in great shape,
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: but no.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: Star Trek.
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: Is that it?
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Oh, you want to talk to Poppy? Oh, here's Poppy.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: Look at this. Your buddy Poppy's here. Hello, Poppy. The
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: dynamic duo.
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: Hey, mentor.
• 32:27
  Speaker 5: Actually, we did catch on that three and a half.
• 32:30
  Speaker 5: You know, when we set it last night and we
• 32:32
  Speaker 5: made the line go down. Hey, leprechaun.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: When you called up, Poppy, you gave an illegal line.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: It was three. So you pushed. You didn't win that bet.
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: Okay, we pushed. But you know what? Tomorrow's going to
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: be a good game. And me and the Leprechaun, we're
• 32:48
  Speaker 5: going to break down the 49ers, and they're going to
• 32:51
  Speaker 5: be playing about the Rams. You ready, Leprechaun? That's right now.
• 32:55
  Speaker 5: The game is tonight.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the game's tonight, actually, Papi.
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: It's tonight, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 32:59
  Speaker 5: That's what I meant. Who do you like in Leprechaun?
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Are we doing this again?
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: Really? No, I'll let you go this time, Papi.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: You go.
• 33:08
  Speaker 5: Oh, look, on this team, it's going to be a
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: good game.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: Go ahead. You were defending me against Marcell.
• 33:12
  Speaker 5: Thank you. I like Rams. Puka. Puka Nakua. Huh?
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: Puka.
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: Oh, Coop. Can you punch me, Coop?
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Coop, can you punch me right in the nose, right
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: between the eyes? Can you punch me as hard as
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: you can punch me? Please. Yes?
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: I would, but you don't, you know, I don't have...
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: Arms long enough for that.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay. I got you. Why can't these guys just say, oh,
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: here's who I like, boom, one line, why I like
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: the game. Why is that so hard? Instead, we get
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: this back and forth. Are they still there or are
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: they gone?
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: They're technically there.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: Poppy, I'm going to give you, I'm going to set
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: a timer here. Let me get my timer on my
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: little thing here.
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: I'm ready, man.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: I'm going to give you, you got to tighten this up, Poppy.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: I'm going to give you 20 seconds to give the
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: pick and why you like the pick. On your marks,
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: get set, and go.
• 34:17
  Speaker 5: Look, the Rams, Matthew Schaffer, Puka Nakua, anytime touchdown, he's
• 34:22
  Speaker 5: going to score. He likes biting people. He's going to
• 34:24
  Speaker 5: bite the ball and score a touchdown. And then you've
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: got the Rams defense with Miles Garrett. They look phenomenal.
• 34:30
  Speaker 5: The 49ers, a lot of mistakes. The owner has a
• 34:33
  Speaker 5: lot of problems, as my mentor said. It's downhill.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: 20 seconds. All right. You didn't even give the pick.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: I told you in 20 seconds, give the pick. Poppy,
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: what you do is you say, I like the Rams,
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: and here's why. And then you tell the person listening
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: why you like the Rams. You don't make the pick
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: at the end. You start with the pick, and then
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: that's it. All right. Thank you, Bobby. Leprechaun. Anything Leprechaun
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: or no? Is that it?
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: I said the Rams, even though they arrived 26 hours early,
• 35:06

• 37:26
  Speaker 3: Do you ever go to farmer's markets?
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: I never went to, well, that's not true. I used
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: to live near the OG Farmer's Market in L.A., where,
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: was it the Grove is there now? But it's still there,
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: the Farmer's Market. I used to go to that. But
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: for the most part, that only really started when I
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: got married, so I do. But before that, not much.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: What about you, Lorena?
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: Not down here, but in my hometown, yeah, I go
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: to the Farmer's Market every Saturday. It's kind of like
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: the communal watering hole.
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: The only store to shop at. What about you, Koopaloo?
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: No, not really.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: No? I mean, like, I think there's... Support local business
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: and all.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: That?
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I don't know. I've I've walked through
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: plenty of farmer's markets.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah. You don't want some guy trying to sell you
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: a $ 20 thing of honey? You're not interested in that?
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: The honey is one thing, but I don't know. They've
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: got all this fruit, and it's on the floor. I
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: don't know.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: There's always the person with the kettle corn stand. What's next?
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: What do we got? It's Ask Ben and Friends for
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: the rest of the hour.
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: Stevie Meatballs would like to know.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: Hi, Stevie Meatballs.
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: What is your pillow situation when you sleep? How many?
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: Where do they go? Are any of them long body pillows?
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: All right. First of all, you're very creepy asking about
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: a man's pillow. That's very creepy. I usually have two
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: to three pillows at any time. The main one, I'm
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: a side sleeper, so the main one is the small
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: one I can kind of wrap my arm around my head.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: It's hard to find a good pillow for that. If
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: somebody has a recommendation, let me know. Because it's got
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: to be soft. I like a cooling pillow. I usually
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: have three, but one's the main one, the small one
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: that I put, wrap my arm around. What about you, Lorena?
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: I have so many pillows, you can barely see my bed.
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: Okay. I got you.
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: Coop?
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: I used to be a two-pillow guy, but now I
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: just have the one nice memory foam pillow.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: You're downsizing. I'm shocked how expensive pillows are. I went
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: to buy a pillow a while back. They're really pricey.
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: That's why I used to be two-pillow guy, because I
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: would get crappy $ 10 pillows, but now I got an
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: expensive one.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: You get a bougie one, man. Those things are expensive.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: What's next? What do we got?
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: Georgia Boy would like to know, better donut filling, jelly
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: or cream?
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's tough. I'm actually going to go cream because
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: the fruit stuff's a little tit and miss. What about you, Lorena?
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: I do love a good lemon filling, but the Bavarian
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: cream steals my heart.
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: I think the jelly is where it's at.
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: Now, it's inconsistent, the jelly. I feel like the cream
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: is more consistent. I'm Team Cream.
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: Easier to.
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: Well, that sounded... That did.
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: Not sound good.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: We'll delete that in post. That did not.
