2:11
Speaker 3: sister's kids go there. And my thing was the teachers
2:14
Speaker 3: were different than when I went. No Way, really forty
2:17
Speaker 3: years but I'm I go, hey, missus reed still there. No,
2:22
Speaker 3: I knew it through, okay, Like it's like, no, no way,
2:27
Speaker 3: I know things change, all right, I know things change.
2:30
Speaker 3: I did.
2:30
Speaker 1: I did attend the same high school as my parents,
2:33
Speaker 1: and some of the teachers were across from.
2:37
Speaker 4: Remember it real quick, the name would come. Yeah, I
2:39
Speaker 4: had a big, big extend. You had a big extended
2:42
Speaker 4: family of an important family. Yeah, a lot of cousins.
2:46
Speaker 3: But you had older siblings, right obviously, and you drew
2:51
Speaker 3: and so did I. So was it always for you guys?
2:53
Speaker 3: And you walked into class and was like, oh you're
2:55
Speaker 3: Oh you're so and So's brother little brother. And she
2:58
Speaker 3: was a high achiever. I was always like my in
3:01
Speaker 3: the jackpot because she was a high achiever. So it's
3:03
Speaker 3: like you better be as good as her. Like, well,
3:05
Speaker 3: wait a minute. Now you're gonna judge me individually.
3:07
Speaker 4: Okay, And then you were a high achiever and you
3:10
Speaker 4: lived up to the billing. Now try having your sister
3:12
Speaker 4: be the high achiever and then you be very middle
3:15
Speaker 4: of the road and the most annoying kid in the class.
3:18
Speaker 4: That was the one to get Why couldn't you be
3:20
Speaker 4: a little bit more like your sister?
3:22
Speaker 3: Did you get that? Actually? All the look at you now, nothing,
3:27
Speaker 3: nothing was better than the uh.
3:29
Speaker 4: I mean you could just probably like leave it into
3:31
Speaker 4: the text window like the textboxes.
3:34
Speaker 3: Really conversational.
3:36
Speaker 4: It's just extremely concretion young man, very social young man,
3:42
Speaker 4: talks out of turn a bit.
3:43
Speaker 3: Appreciate his enthusiasm. Yeah, sometimes it's out of turn stuff
3:46
Speaker 3: like that.
3:46
Speaker 4: Quite a bit of quite a bit of talking out
3:48
Speaker 4: of turn conversations which you know, listen, that has never changed,
3:51
Speaker 4: never changed, just got worse.
3:54
Speaker 3: It's excited.
3:55
Speaker 4: He loves enthusiasms with impressive training. By the way, Drew,
3:57
Speaker 4: that's that's what people ask. That's when people ask, what
3:59
Speaker 4: did you majoring in college? I majored on how to
4:01
Speaker 4: annoy people. Settle in and I'll see if it worked,
4:05
Speaker 4: and now you do it.
4:06
Speaker 3: Now I'm just kidding. That's a joke, Billy. I think
4:08
Speaker 3: you do a great job on the air.
4:10
Speaker 2: That a joke, what, I love it.
4:14
Speaker 3: I couldn make that joke without doing a straight fing
4:17
Speaker 3: red hot tip. Not a girl started school yesterday this
4:19
Speaker 3: past Wednesday already. So it flew by Hold on August
4:22
Speaker 3: August nineteenth. Yeah, man, yeah, sure, I know some colleges, right,
4:27
Speaker 3: I mean in college we would do it. And if
4:29
Speaker 3: you were in our ra at ra training all right,
4:30
Speaker 3: so you were there early twenty first. Man, that's crazy,
4:34
Speaker 3: but I didn't know. I remember it being Labor Day,
4:37
Speaker 3: am I. Labor Day is also the latest that possibly
4:41
Speaker 3: can be this year. I think that has something to
4:43
Speaker 3: do with it.
4:44
Speaker 4: I also think the other part is, and maybe I'm
4:46
Speaker 4: wrong here, you're almost like building in for the fact
4:49
Speaker 4: that like it gets snow days nowadays. Yeah, it thos
4:53
Speaker 4: like three or four inches. We're probably gonna go virtual
4:56
Speaker 4: for the day, So we might as well build in
4:58
Speaker 4: a couple of days more in the beginning and have
5:01
Speaker 4: some some leash for the cold started to creep.
5:03
Speaker 1: I blame football because it was like were you playing
5:05
Speaker 1: our second or sometimes third game before school even school started? Yeah,
5:11
Speaker 1: football crept up into the earlier part of the summer.
5:14
Speaker 4: It just continued to move, and I mean with the
5:16
Speaker 4: new w i A roles where you're basically able to
5:18
Speaker 4: practice throughout the whole summer.
5:20
Speaker 3: Pretty much it changed a lot of it, no doubt
5:22
Speaker 3: about it.
5:23
Speaker 2: Pretty much.
5:24
Speaker 1: Hit us up eight seven seven seven nine three Packers
5:27
Speaker 1: Broncos tonight preseason game two.
5:30
Speaker 2: Oh baby. Our coverage tonight because it's an eight o'clock start,
5:33
Speaker 2: begins at four o'clock with Doug Russell here in Milwaukee,
5:37
Speaker 2: the on the Big nine twenty and uh bag ye,
5:43
Speaker 2: Doug Russell gets it started with the Packers what is it, Packer's.
5:47
Speaker 1: Game Day, Packers preview with Dennis Crowsey, Mike Keller, James Jones,
5:52
Speaker 1: and Wes Hodkowitz, and then the game and then Packer's
5:54
Speaker 1: ot with me and Billy probably kicking off at about midnight.
5:57
Speaker 3: Right around that.
5:59
Speaker 4: Hopefully a litle bit sooner, hopefully we get this thing
6:01
Speaker 4: wrong and hopefully we don't have five video replays in
6:04
Speaker 4: the first half. Let's get that was the part of
6:06
Speaker 4: last week that was not only the weech in part
6:10
Speaker 4: of the second half where Drew Aller looked like he
6:12
Speaker 4: was playing seven on seven. That was frustrating in and
6:15
Speaker 4: of itself. The video replays and significant ones throughout the
6:19
Speaker 4: first half should be illegal. In preseason games, you get
6:22
Speaker 4: thirty seconds. If it's right, it's wrong, that's it. Do
6:25
Speaker 4: it like Baseball told us they were gonna do.
6:27
Speaker 2: I like it.
6:28
Speaker 4: They told us it was gonna be thirty seconds and go,
6:30
Speaker 4: and you know, two and a half minutes either way.
6:32
Speaker 4: But let's expedite that thing a little bit.
6:33
Speaker 1: We will chat with Wayne Larvy Voice the Packers Live
6:37
Speaker 1: from Denver seven to twenty five today.
6:38
Speaker 4: You'll get you ready and Wayne's gonna get another full
6:41
Speaker 4: dose a regular season here because Broncos are going to
6:43
Speaker 4: play some starters all the way to the ninety man roster,
6:46
Speaker 4: and it sounds like the Packers are going to do
6:48
Speaker 4: pretty much the exact same tonight with Jordan Love expected
6:51
Speaker 4: let to go.
6:51
Speaker 3: That's exciting, you know, yeah, you never that's never promised
6:54
Speaker 3: anymore an NFL preseason to actually get a lot of
6:57
Speaker 3: starters or significant starters. So the fact that we'll get some,
7:00
Speaker 3: that's an exciting prospect. I mean, he gets to watch
7:03
Speaker 3: some interesting football here tonight, So I'm excited for that one.
7:06
Speaker 1: I am uh just surfed around during their our Top
7:09
Speaker 1: of the Hour commercial break, and I was looking at
7:11
Speaker 1: tickets for today's Breweris games a healthy supply available on
7:14
Speaker 1: the Brewers website. You don't even have to go to
7:15
Speaker 1: the secondary market. Yes, you can buy them right from
7:18
Speaker 1: the Brewers. Then some decent locations, some decent locations. I
7:22
Speaker 1: was doing the exact same thing.
7:23
Speaker 4: Tomorrow is one of the hottest tickets of the year
7:25
Speaker 4: with the with the Jay Aaron jersey giveaway. But today
7:29
Speaker 4: is as good of a matchup as you're possibly gonna get.
7:32
Speaker 4: We got Mike Vasalo sending out Tale of the Tapes
7:34
Speaker 4: s Drew. That's how good it is. Like this is
7:36
Speaker 4: a heavyweight boxing.
7:37
Speaker 2: Match this week sale and of course them is. It's
7:40
Speaker 2: going to be great.
7:41
Speaker 1: And I almost did it. I was gonna pimp Billy yesterday.
7:45
Speaker 1: I was at the game yesterday and when I rolled home,
7:48
Speaker 1: I have I have a friend. It's good to know people.
7:51
Speaker 1: A friend slipped me one of the Henry Aaron so
7:55
Speaker 1: I got it in advance.
7:56
Speaker 2: And about this, but I have the powder Blue forty
8:01
Speaker 2: four in my possession.
8:02
Speaker 4: I saw a certain friend of ours who might also
8:06
Speaker 4: be halftime entertainment. They got the super cool box got
8:09
Speaker 4: dropped off. I saw a little glimpse that thing looks good,
8:12
Speaker 4: it looks it looks sweet, and anyway we rise.
8:16
Speaker 1: We used to be on the list for those drops,
8:17
Speaker 1: but we've fallen off. We got to get back on this.
8:19
Speaker 3: I don't know how we fell off that list. Yeah,
8:21
Speaker 3: get back in there. If you're out there, Brewers, we
8:23
Speaker 3: do exist still.
8:24
Speaker 2: You can tell tell Leslie and Marty Ronsky that we
8:28
Speaker 2: need to be back in the list of you know.
8:29
Speaker 4: But for a list, and especially for Hank Aaron, there's
8:33
Speaker 4: just too many groups of people in a full generation
8:37
Speaker 4: now that is not going to understand that pure greatness
8:41
Speaker 4: that he was. So anytime that they honor him, I'm
8:43
Speaker 4: going to be very excited about it. And I even
8:46
Speaker 4: dusted off the old Hank Aaron bobblehead that I had
8:48
Speaker 4: there that was I think on the little wedge of
8:50
Speaker 4: cheese from.
8:51
Speaker 3: Back in the day, way back in the day.
8:52
Speaker 4: Every once in a while, they'd every couple of years,
8:54
Speaker 4: it feels like they'd fire out some kind of forty
8:56
Speaker 4: four celebration in this fiftieth year, fiftieth year celebration of
9:00
Speaker 4: his last home run great way to do it.
9:03
Speaker 3: You ever curl up with a you know, a sandwich
9:05
Speaker 3: and a drink and a good book and look at
9:08
Speaker 3: Hank Aaron's reference Baseball reference. He had some nasty, nasty numbers.
9:12
Speaker 3: Now we already know this. He's the best ever and
9:14
Speaker 3: all this stuff, but it is really crazy when you
9:15
Speaker 3: look at some of his stuff, and you're right to appreciate.
9:18
Speaker 3: His legend is something we have to keep passing along
9:21
Speaker 3: to our next generations because it's they're very important. Now,
9:23
Speaker 3: I want to say one more thing really quickly in
9:25
Speaker 3: advance of this, because I know what's going to happen already.
9:27
Speaker 3: I remember this happening with the Honest jersey giveaway, and
9:30
Speaker 3: I anticipated it's going to be another large crowd, large lines,
9:33
Speaker 3: large situation because everybody wants this jersey. Everybody. You're gonna
9:36
Speaker 3: do better if you just understand the situation, stay patient
9:39
Speaker 3: in your line, and don't whine afterwards. I remember, for
9:42
Speaker 3: like a week on the air we were doing this.
9:43
Speaker 3: Afterwards with the Honest giveaways, everybody was whining about something.
9:47
Speaker 3: Oh they didn't do it. Is it the basketball jersey? Yeah?
9:50
Speaker 3: It was just like people were complaining. I'm like, no,
9:52
Speaker 3: actually they did what they had to do when you
9:54
Speaker 3: have forty thousand people all looking for the right item.
9:57
Speaker 2: Okay, so in twenty five thousand in supply, Yeah, exactly.
10:00
Speaker 3: So everyone knows the rules. If that's what it is,
10:02
Speaker 3: get in line, and actually, you know, just don't complain
10:05
Speaker 3: all the time about something. I mean, people were just
10:07
Speaker 3: complaining no end when things actually went the way they
10:10
Speaker 3: were supposed to. So that was something that was really
10:12
Speaker 3: bothered me last time. And you'll be kind your fellow neighbors,
10:15
Speaker 3: play by the rules, and uh, hey, what's fairs fair?
10:18
Speaker 3: If you get in line, great, If he didn't, so
10:20
Speaker 3: be it. And you have to understand that you didn't
10:22
Speaker 3: get in line and move on. So I already know
10:24
Speaker 3: people are gonna start complaining and moaning after this one.
10:28
Speaker 3: I can already see it. So did it happen with
10:30
Speaker 3: the dice cups last weekend? Good question. I didn't hear anybody.
10:33
Speaker 3: I know people were into the dice cups?
10:35
Speaker 1: Yeah so I yeah, you gotta wait in line, and
10:39
Speaker 1: it's a one o'clock start, which is different.
10:41
Speaker 3: Much different. Yeah, so it'll be an early start. Fairs fair.
10:45
Speaker 3: Everyone knows the rules. Good tailgating day, though, yeah, I
10:48
Speaker 3: would say.
10:49
Speaker 4: I mean from like that full on day that you
10:51
Speaker 4: get the full tailgate in, that's pretty good.
10:53
Speaker 1: Started good. Today could be a good one too, I mean,
10:55
Speaker 1: depending on the rather.
10:56
Speaker 3: But I was gonna say, if this rain holds off,
10:58
Speaker 3: it's gonna be a beautiful one in the mid seventies
11:01
Speaker 3: to be tailgating.
11:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a perfect day at the ballpark yesterday.
11:05
Speaker 3: But it's also even better when you get that kind
11:06
Speaker 3: of run sport right out of game. Yeah.
11:08
Speaker 2: I mean that place was hopping and happening right out
11:10
Speaker 2: of the case.
11:10
Speaker 1: As our beer metrics experts say, seventy eight degrees is
11:14
Speaker 1: the prime beer selling temperature anytimes. Any temperature is good
11:17
Speaker 1: to drink beer, but selling it, especially at summer for
11:19
Speaker 1: US seventy eight.
11:21
Speaker 4: Yeah, inst I would wonder what those beer metrics do
11:24
Speaker 4: on the first base and third base side for a
11:26
Speaker 4: day like yesterday, because those are two completely different climates
11:29
Speaker 4: that you're watching that game in. But to then get
11:32
Speaker 4: kickstarted right out of the gates. We talked about it yesterday.
11:34
Speaker 4: You said it with Hunter, and it is about as
11:38
Speaker 4: important as possible if you're going to the game today.
11:41
Speaker 4: We are talking about the tailgate. The weather's gonna be great,
11:43
Speaker 4: But finish that last one a little early, so you
11:46
Speaker 4: make sure that you're in there by the time Miss
11:48
Speaker 4: and Sale actually start executing their toil, Because if you
11:50
Speaker 4: want to see the radar gun really light up, that
11:53
Speaker 4: first inning is when it happens. The first ten pitches,
11:57
Speaker 4: you can bet your bottom dollar at least eight of
11:59
Speaker 4: them are going to be fastas and at least seven
12:00
Speaker 4: of them are gonna be under over one hundred miles
12:02
Speaker 4: an hour because he's gonna be laying it out there
12:04
Speaker 4: and letting him see it right out.
12:05
Speaker 3: Of the game. Yeah, this is gonna be a special matchup,
12:08
Speaker 3: no question. One of those you might want to say
12:10
Speaker 3: one day, Hey guy, you know what you know what
12:13
Speaker 3: I saw when I was a kid, I saw Miss
12:14
Speaker 3: Chris Sale. I saw that matchup.
12:16
Speaker 4: Well last year, that was the That was the Schemes
12:19
Speaker 4: Miszowski Day game that we were doing. Yeah, Arman and
12:22
Speaker 4: I did a four hour pregame show over the Potawatamie
12:25
Speaker 4: Sportsbook that day. Awesome man, and it felt like a
12:28
Speaker 4: playoff game for people getting that excited about it. On
12:30
Speaker 4: that early walk up or that quick walk up turnaround
12:33
Speaker 4: sellout they had.
12:34
Speaker 3: And there's something about, you know, in the doldrums of
12:36
Speaker 3: a regular season, there's something about a heightened excitement on
12:39
Speaker 3: a matchup like that, people getting jacked up. And people
12:41
Speaker 3: were ready for that one, definitely, and they were really
12:45
Speaker 3: fired up for it. And I was, you know, I
12:47
Speaker 3: think maybe because it's a Friday afternoon you have the
12:49
Speaker 3: different start time, Maybe there's an aspect of that keeping
12:51
Speaker 3: the prices down. But hey, that's the opportunity for you
12:54
Speaker 3: to go out get great seats at a good price
12:56
Speaker 3: for a ball game. Still the best deal going from
12:59
Speaker 3: Milwaukee and State of Wisconsin entertainment is a Brewers game.
13:02
Speaker 3: Go get your tickets and go see a great historic
13:04
Speaker 3: matchup and hopefully another Brewers win against a team that
13:08
Speaker 3: you really need to win against because you're trying to
13:09
Speaker 3: get that first round by So, yeah, let's get a
13:13
Speaker 3: good crowd going today. It'd be nice to see.
13:15
Speaker 1: It'll be good. But there are tickets available if you're
13:17
Speaker 1: interested in going to it. Good Ones, Yeah, yeah, keep
13:19
Speaker 1: them coming. Eight seven seven seven three. You mentioned that

Speaker 1: YouTube comments and on the text line.
13:28
Speaker 4: Big Ones Here, Bob and Bear a Boo firing us
13:30
Speaker 4: up right out of the gates.

13:34
Speaker 4: just needed to throw some strikes, but great job by
13:37
Speaker 4: Murphy getting them the heck out of there. Bullpen was
13:39
Speaker 4: fantastic again. What's up with uh? The ass comment in
13:45
Speaker 4: the post game something about ants? Maybe I heard that wrong,
13:49
Speaker 4: but it was hilarious. Also, the Yankee scored three in
13:51
Speaker 4: the first inning yesterday and play by play man Michael
13:53
Speaker 4: k was having himself a time in the press box
13:58
Speaker 4: cracking me up. Go Brewers against the breat It's great
14:00

14:03
Speaker 4: We need to end with the storms coming through. We
14:07
Speaker 4: need to get rid of the storms coming through, but
14:09
Speaker 4: hopefully it's an offensive storm. Is the Brewers roll through
14:11
Speaker 4: here against the Braves the bullpen all weekend long? How
14:15
Speaker 4: underrated was that on? I mean even on Wednesday night
14:18
Speaker 4: when you don't end up finishing the comeback. They allowed
14:22
Speaker 4: you five different to come back and win the game,
14:26
Speaker 4: and then they're just as good, if not better.
14:27
Speaker 3: Yesterday and.
14:30
Speaker 4: The Mike Fasallo numbers we talked about with Trevor McGill,
14:33
Speaker 4: I guess I didn't realize this one either. Trevor McGill
14:36
Speaker 4: has now retired thirty of his last thirty one batters,
14:39
Speaker 4: the only base runner coming on an intentional walk against
14:43
Speaker 4: Fernando Tatis in San Diego.
14:45
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's been on. That's incredible. What a run he's
14:47
Speaker 3: been on. And and kind of under the Radaray, Yeah,
14:50
Speaker 3: you know you expect him, You don't know, And why
14:53
Speaker 3: do you know when they're rolling like setup guys and stuff.
14:55
Speaker 1: You Rebay was going good, like you don't notice until
14:58
Speaker 1: they filled their socks one Yeah, until there's one time,
15:01
Speaker 1: and god forbid they do it twice in a week.
15:03
Speaker 1: Then they suck and should be DFA despite a string
15:06
Speaker 1: of like fifteen scoreless outings before Well.
15:08
Speaker 4: And McGill, I mean, think about it. We talk about
15:10
Speaker 4: it in terms of the deadline. Also in the offseason,
15:13
Speaker 4: his name was as prominently mentioned in trade rumors as
15:17
Speaker 4: any other any brewer. It seemed like wrong. They continually
15:21
Speaker 4: were throwing his name out there. Sometimes it's the movie
15:23
Speaker 4: you don't make that end up being the best ones. Ye,
15:26
Speaker 4: what does this bullpen look like if Trevor McGill's not
15:28
Speaker 4: anchoring it for the majority of the season, My.
15:29
Speaker 1: God, We were talking about that with our MVP conversation
15:33
Speaker 1: McGill's under the radar for Brewer's MVP.
15:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I heard that conversation.
15:38
Speaker 4: I it is so tough because it's hard to not
15:42
Speaker 4: go with Miz just because of the energy excitement that
15:46
Speaker 4: he brings to this team, and.
15:47
Speaker 1: He affects games beyond when he starts. We talked about
15:49
Speaker 1: that because if you bank on him, go seven, the
15:51
Speaker 1: bullpen gets rested, sets you up for the next day.
15:55
Speaker 2: Like I think it was. Was it Mitchell? I think?
15:57
Speaker 1: Or is it Mitchell or Ashby? The Brewers won the
16:01
Speaker 1: game yesterday because of the guys who pitched in relief
16:04
Speaker 1: the day before and sucked up the innings and kept
16:08
Speaker 1: the top guys fresh to do what they did yesterday.
16:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, because Bryce Wilson went out there and ate for you. Yeah.
16:13
Speaker 2: So you had Chad Patrick and Ashby ready to go
16:15
Speaker 2: and that was you know.
16:17
Speaker 4: And you don't have that unless you're trying to fight
16:19
Speaker 4: and claw your way through. That's where like the designation
16:22
Speaker 4: of roles, the seems like the cleanest ones are in
16:24
Speaker 4: the bullpen. Hey, keep us in it, Yeah, and you're
16:27
Speaker 4: our get us home guys, no doubt and that buy
16:29
Speaker 4: in is is not probably the easiest thing. But when
16:32
Speaker 4: you shove like they did yesterday and on Wednesday, a
16:35
Speaker 4: lot easier to enjoy your role.
16:36
Speaker 1: You see it when you'll have like two guys warming up.
16:39
Speaker 1: One guy's one of the tender loin of the bullpen
16:42
Speaker 1: and the other guy's like, okay, give us an inning,
16:44
Speaker 1: and it's like, okay, well wait, if we score here,
16:46
Speaker 1: we're gonna bring in our big our good guy.
16:47
Speaker 2: And if we don't, then you're going in. You know that.
16:51
Speaker 2: You see that all the time.
16:52
Speaker 4: It's so and it's great when it works out in practice.
16:55
Speaker 4: It works out just in front of you like that.
16:57
Speaker 4: But when you have Bryce Wilson back in for three
17:01
Speaker 4: different times, might get DF eight again before the end
17:04
Speaker 4: of this thing and re signed h for another trip,
17:07
Speaker 4: But you get those guys to be able to save it.
17:09
Speaker 4: And Chad Patrick he's now pitched more well, more out
17:13
Speaker 4: of the way, more out of the bullpen than he
17:14
Speaker 4: did even as a starter, even in terms of innings
17:17
Speaker 4: this year, and he's been.
17:18
Speaker 3: Really really good in both roles.
17:20
Speaker 4: That is not an easy thing to be able to
17:21
Speaker 4: just jump back to when I assume he's kind of
17:24
Speaker 4: been a starter his entire life. But he was good
17:26
Speaker 4: in relief last year in the playoffs and like, ah,
17:28
Speaker 4: you messed up and showed us that you can do that.
17:30
Speaker 3: He was huge. He was one of the best pitchers
17:32
Speaker 3: last year when they needed him the most. And he's
17:33
Speaker 3: been great in any role they asked him to be
17:35
Speaker 3: in and he's been asked to do a lot of things.
17:37
Speaker 3: So yeah, another great example, Ashby's been doing the job.
17:41
Speaker 3: I mean, guys have stepped in as they've done every
17:43
Speaker 3: year in this last few years of the stretch. He
17:45
Speaker 3: asked who's gonna fill in for guys like Nick Mears
17:47
Speaker 3: and they and we've had him come in.
17:49
Speaker 4: So you were mostly the guy asking hibout nickall because
17:52
Speaker 4: you were the president of the Nick Meers face credit.
17:55
Speaker 3: He was very important last year and had a big role.
17:57
Speaker 2: So you know, this is an opportune times talking about
18:00
Speaker 2: these bullpen guys.
18:01
Speaker 3: Who's hot?
18:01
Speaker 1: Who's not brought to us by Donovan Jordans and heating
18:03
Speaker 1: and cooling, because Trevor McGill is clearly hot, but people
18:06
Speaker 1: might not be paying attention to him.
18:08
Speaker 4: Yeah, people and I might not be paying attention to
18:10
Speaker 4: just how hot it is. Fifteen consecutive save chances that
18:14
Speaker 4: he has converted, tossed another perfect inning yesterday, and.
18:18
Speaker 2: Thirty of his last thirty one hitters retired in order.
18:22
Speaker 4: Chad Patrick, how many earned runs has he given up
18:25
Speaker 4: in the last month? One one run in nine and
18:29
Speaker 4: two thirds innings pitch in the month of August. Before that,
18:32
Speaker 4: a two run give up in a sixteen to three
18:36
Speaker 4: l against the Giants where everybody got tagged. Otherwise, Chad
18:39
Speaker 4: Patrick has just been in there. But what about Aaron Ashby.
18:42
Speaker 4: We heard from a little earlier in Hunter's recap he
18:45
Speaker 4: got his twelfth hold. We've talked mostly about his wins.
18:48
Speaker 4: Much maligned Aaron Ashby there for a while. Oh yeah,
18:51
Speaker 4: there were people that were very frustrating. A lot of
18:53
Speaker 4: pitchforks out for Aaron Ashby. How many earned runs has
18:57
Speaker 4: Aaron Ashby giving up Armansarian in the month of August.
19:00
Speaker 3: Mmm, I'm gonna say one, what is it won? Too many? Zero?
19:05
Speaker 4: Zero, ten and a third? Five hits? No, Ernie's not
19:09
Speaker 4: has walked, five, that didn't has walked. Let guys on
19:13
Speaker 4: that whip is definitely not going down necessarily.
19:16
Speaker 2: But the e ra is because Aaron Ashby has been
19:19
Speaker 2: as good as it can be.
19:20
Speaker 3: At your job. Run your run prevention is your job,
19:23
Speaker 3: not you know, hit prevention.
19:24
Speaker 2: Who's not hot? We mentioned cal Raleigh.
19:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's a tough one for that man. I
19:29
Speaker 3: mean like it is. Uh.
19:32
Speaker 4: I enjoy the Big Dumper. I enjoy that. I enjoyed,
19:35
Speaker 4: uh the cut of his jib a year ago. Love
19:37
Speaker 4: the home run Derby. That's a tough scene when all
19:40
Speaker 4: of a sudden you are just completely m I A
19:44
Speaker 4: also not hot the Indiana fever last night, Son of
19:47
Speaker 4: a Gun blowing a seven point lead in the second half.
19:50
Speaker 2: Come on, who on else?
19:52
Speaker 3: Who on earth is betting on the w NBA.
19:55
Speaker 2: Boy, you might have a prodience. Who's hot? Who's not?
19:57
Speaker 1: Bet on Donovan Jorgensen because they're the best low Luckily
20:00
Speaker 1: they've been at it employee owned, they've been at it
20:02
Speaker 1: for forty years, four point seven. Start Google rating, check
20:06
Speaker 1: them out. Donovan Jorgenson dot com is the website. When
20:09
Speaker 1: we come back, Dolph is going to drop by from

20:38
Speaker 2: Com talking text line.
20:39
Speaker 1: We're talking to Scott Dolphin, our halftime correspondent here because
20:42
Speaker 1: we're halftime of the final show of the week.
20:44
Speaker 5: Good morning, Dolph, Hey, happy Friday, fellas. All right, that
20:47
Speaker 5: is a happy Friday, absolutely right.
20:49
Speaker 3: I'm intrigued now.
20:50
Speaker 5: I'm looking at our video right now, and Billy your
20:54
Speaker 5: box says you're don.
20:56
Speaker 3: Oh yes, I am the Don.
20:58
Speaker 4: The don we have the we haven't changed. Sorry you
21:00
Speaker 4: didn't come kiss the ring. I think those pretty disrespectful.
21:04
Speaker 4: The day of my daughter's wedding, them in here and
21:07
Speaker 4: that's whatever.
21:08
Speaker 3: What I don't even change those names for a few years. Yeah,
21:11
Speaker 3: how to do it? I don't how to do it.
21:13
Speaker 3: You don't see it on the actual screen though, for
21:15
Speaker 3: people watching with us on YouTube, Facebook and Classic got
21:19
Speaker 3: it all right, that's why this guy was man, I'll
21:21
Speaker 3: go ahead.
21:22
Speaker 1: For sorry, I got a question for you, because there's
21:25
Speaker 1: a story on Jays Online about Badger's football season ticket sales.
21:31
Speaker 1: The Badger sold forty seven and eighty seven season tickets
21:34
Speaker 1: for twenty twenty six, according to data obtained by the
21:36
Speaker 1: Journal Central open records request. That's down thirteen percent from
21:40
Speaker 1: fifty four thousand and seven eighty last year. Now that's
21:43
Speaker 1: as of August nineteenth, three weeks before the start of
21:46
Speaker 1: the season, and they started selling single game tickets and stuff.
21:49
Speaker 1: And I'm wondering because there's been an erosion over recent
21:52
Speaker 1: years because of disappointing seasons for all the turmoil in
21:55
Speaker 1: the hubbub. Has that ever happened at Iowa?
21:57
Speaker 3: Oh?
21:57
Speaker 2: Yeah, Have they had the same kind of cycle kind
22:00
Speaker 2: of thing?
22:00
Speaker 1: If they don't fire the guy's son, I'm getting out
22:03
Speaker 1: of here.
22:03
Speaker 5: I think it was more when I think it's just
22:06
Speaker 5: it's a matter of if you're good or bad. You know,
22:08
Speaker 5: most fans are fickle when it comes to buy and
22:10
Speaker 5: season tickets. They're like, Hey, I can spend my some
22:12
Speaker 5: my money someplace else and watch the Badgers on TV.
22:14
Speaker 5: And iow it happened after Hayden Fryar retired in the
22:17
Speaker 5: late nineteen nineties and Kirk Ference took over.
22:20
Speaker 2: They absolutely sucked.
22:21
Speaker 5: They won one game the first year and three the
22:23
Speaker 5: next and I think they actually went to a bowl
22:25
Speaker 5: game in their third year, but it was dismal and
22:28
Speaker 5: season ticket holders both failed.
22:30
Speaker 1: They did so, And yeah, part of it is it
22:33
Speaker 1: used to be that, you know, in a it wasn't
22:36
Speaker 1: that long ago that not every game was on TV.
22:39
Speaker 4: Well, correct, and now not every game has a start
22:42
Speaker 4: time right now, right Like, that's one of the other
22:44
Speaker 4: it's one of the tough things. And you know, Matt
22:47
Speaker 4: mentions it a lot, and it really is true. There's
22:50
Speaker 4: no sport that demands more from the in stadium viewing
22:53
Speaker 4: audience than college football. A lot of it's the pageantry
22:56
Speaker 4: and the excitement, and you miss a lot of it
22:58
Speaker 4: if you're not there on Tell vision. But when you
23:01
Speaker 4: don't know the start of the game until six days before,
23:04
Speaker 4: that's just.
23:05
Speaker 3: Did remember a hard thing to judge.
23:06
Speaker 5: Up until a couple of years ago, they had to
23:08
Speaker 5: have it out the Monday or Tuesday, the week the
23:11
Speaker 5: week before.
23:12
Speaker 2: Correct.
23:13
Speaker 5: Ow, you're right, Monday or too. You're trying to make
23:15
Speaker 5: plans with your life and you don't even know when
23:17
Speaker 5: you're gonna do this game on set the.
23:18
Speaker 4: Majority of the time, and when Drew and I are
23:19
Speaker 4: coming going up and playing, Uh, when's Mike Keller going
23:22
Speaker 4: to say the first thing on Packers preview that we
23:24
Speaker 4: get to enjoy it starts up again here.
23:26
Speaker 3: Tonight at six.
23:28
Speaker 4: I would also be finding out the kick kick time
23:30
Speaker 4: of next week's Padrick point as you're driving up. And
23:34
Speaker 4: that is a They've made so much money from the networks.
23:37
Speaker 4: I can't say it's a bad business model, but I
23:39
Speaker 4: do think that there are some real unintended consequences, right.
23:42
Speaker 4: And that's also you know, what do you say thirteen percent?
23:45
Speaker 4: That might be two percent. The eleven percent is the
23:48
Speaker 4: fact that you won four games last year, and if
23:51
Speaker 4: you did go to either the Iowa or Ohio state game,
23:54
Speaker 4: that would be a tough site to then say, you
23:56
Speaker 4: know what we should do sign up for six more.
23:58
Speaker 3: Of than this next year. Yeah, great point. You know.
24:00
Speaker 2: So it's a cyclical thing, is what you're saying. I mean,
24:03
Speaker 2: you know, nothing's constant.
24:04
Speaker 3: I know, but and who's on the schedule at home too?
24:07
Speaker 5: Oftentimes people look at that, yeh, who's coming into the
24:10
Speaker 5: camp randall?
24:11
Speaker 3: What other sport can you not make plans for a
24:14
Speaker 3: start time before the season. I don't know. There's really
24:16
Speaker 3: no other sport like that. Sometimes college basketball is changing times,
24:19
Speaker 3: I think, But other than that, at times.
24:22
Speaker 5: The systems it's all about money. You look at it,
24:25
Speaker 5: at it, but it's just crazy. Now you've got what
24:27
Speaker 5: I who's all in this?
24:30
Speaker 4: NBC, Fox, NBC, Fox, and CBS.
24:34
Speaker 5: CBS right and there and streaming certain you say, now
24:37
Speaker 5: you've got games on un.
24:39
Speaker 3: On the car. I get it. Yeah, yes, pause, yeah, so.
24:42
Speaker 5: That could be on Big ten network, FS one, Fox, Sports, NBC, CB, whatever.
24:46
Speaker 2: It's all over the well.
24:47
Speaker 4: And as you just hit it, you have three different
24:49
Speaker 4: groups that are all trying to line up which one
24:51
Speaker 4: they want.
24:52
Speaker 3: And they have a draft, right, they get choices is
24:54
Speaker 3: it each week? Each week?
24:56
Speaker 4: And then I believe it rotates who has the first
24:59
Speaker 4: pick each time?
25:00
Speaker 3: Right?
25:00
Speaker 4: Like so I think if Big Noon Kickoff takes a
25:02
Speaker 4: Big ten game, then they have to bump back into
25:05
Speaker 4: the rotation. Then NBC would get first DIBs for their
25:08
Speaker 4: night game coming up at the end.
25:10
Speaker 3: But it's so in and out that I don't necessarily
25:12
Speaker 3: know how Kevin Warren, we've this very tangled web of
25:16
Speaker 3: contracts and the.
25:17
Speaker 5: Big billions and billions of dollars is what it turned
25:20
Speaker 5: into for them.
25:21
Speaker 4: But then he very quickly got a new job and
25:22
Speaker 4: then got up out of there right as they were
25:25
Speaker 4: all Chriscett doing, which was very very well timed.
25:27
Speaker 3: And now if you can only figure stadium issues out.
25:30
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I'll tell you though that uh that hot
25:34
Speaker 4: Halloween night, Badgers and Hawkeyes.
25:37
Speaker 3: There we go. Is it Halloween night? Do we know that?
25:39
Speaker 3: Not Halloween night? Pardon me? It'll be no later than
25:41
Speaker 3: four pm kickoff? Is that right?
25:43
Speaker 4: That'll be a no later than four p kickoffs, So
25:45
Speaker 4: it could be in some some time frame in there.
25:48
Speaker 4: But the folks in Kinnick are gonna be live on
25:51
Speaker 4: that that Saturday. That's gonna be a fun one.
25:53
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's good that it's before four in that sense, right,
25:56
Speaker 5: so the students won't be make sense ten am until I'm.
25:59
Speaker 1: Just thinking of the State Street and Water Street and
26:02
Speaker 1: Saturday night Halloween you've had?
26:05
Speaker 3: That is what is it used? Is it what it
26:08
Speaker 3: used to be? Though? I know our man is the
26:09
Speaker 3: listening audience can tell us about State Street, like I.
26:14
Speaker 4: Also don't know that a lot of our Madison listening
26:16
Speaker 4: audience is going out on State Street, Armen.
26:18
Speaker 3: Well, but like I got bad, I don't.
26:19
Speaker 4: I don't know that A lot of the folks that
26:21
Speaker 4: are listening to us at six thirty three are the
26:22
Speaker 4: ones that are going out partying on State Street.
26:24
Speaker 3: Well, not now, but in their heyday? Are you kidding me?
26:27
Speaker 3: In their heyday? Right, they can tell you about what
26:29
Speaker 3: it used to look like. I don't know what they're
26:31
Speaker 3: telling you that it looks like right now. They know
26:33
Speaker 3: how it's changed with their kids. I don't know. I'm
26:35
Speaker 3: just saying I remember the freak fast used to be
26:37
Speaker 3: like the wildest thing ever. They used to talk about
26:39
Speaker 3: going to State Street, Madison and Halloween like it was
26:42
Speaker 3: like the craziest, scariest place ever. I can't imagine. Now
26:44
Speaker 3: it's like at the same time, I don't know, I
26:47
Speaker 3: don't know that time.
26:48
Speaker 2: I mean, you can still hang with that crowd.
26:49
Speaker 3: Oh are you kidding me? I could run it with them.
26:52
Speaker 2: Oh?
26:52
Speaker 3: Absolutely yeah, I could fit right in with them. Yeah,
26:55
Speaker 3: for sure, for sure, I'd get out of there probably
26:57
Speaker 3: by nine o'clock, be like, all right, it's time for
26:59
Speaker 3: me to go home, guys.
27:00
Speaker 4: Before the boa, right, people, I better get out of here.
27:06
Speaker 3: Yeah before then, yeah, but yeah, that's wid.
27:10
Speaker 1: While the season ticket base important to the revenue for
27:14
Speaker 1: the coffers to keep the engine running, to me, the
27:17
Speaker 1: bigger thing is like the no shows because people who
27:20
Speaker 1: turned down season tickets, you would think you play well,
27:23
Speaker 1: or if it's a big game, they'll they'll come back
27:26
Speaker 1: back fold and they'll buy a single game seat.
27:29
Speaker 2: But when the Badger's problem has been like the less.
27:32
Speaker 5: When you have a bunch of then yeah that's a problem.
27:35
Speaker 5: I mean when that's your biggest revenue maker. Remember when
27:38
Speaker 5: the biggest issue used to be the students not being
27:40
Speaker 5: in their seats, and that was a bad look on
27:42
Speaker 5: TV when there was an extra pointer or field goal,
27:44
Speaker 5: it was nothing but empty bleachers, you know. And that's
27:46
Speaker 5: the least of the problems.
27:47
Speaker 1: Now that's a well, yeah, that's kind of a self
27:49
Speaker 1: inflicted own goal, right because of the process that they make,
27:53
Speaker 1: it takes.
27:53
Speaker 6: A long time to get them in bad process. That's
27:58
Speaker 6: a topic of discussion every year for Badger fans, and
28:01
Speaker 6: it's going to be another one that's always a topic
28:03
Speaker 6: of disi And at Arman's Institution of Choice, those kids
28:06
Speaker 6: are lined up outside waiting to sprint in.
28:08
Speaker 2: We called it the running of the students, his.
28:11
Speaker 3: General a mission, and so I was in in those
28:13
Speaker 3: races definitely, and it was kind of a funny thing.
28:15
Speaker 2: I've been doing shows in the A triom.
28:16
Speaker 1: I remember at the old Bradley Center especially, you do
28:18
Speaker 1: shows in the A troom and then would open the
28:20
Speaker 1: gates and they would go sprinting by, and those kind
28:22
Speaker 1: of polished marble floors are little slippery kids.
28:24
Speaker 3: It was like we saw some kids go down.
28:28
Speaker 2: They're spinning their wheels like the cartoons.
28:30
Speaker 3: It was crazy. It was it was on the water.
28:32
Speaker 3: They would put a time lapse on it. The thing
28:34
Speaker 3: about it really quick was well, I don't think they'll
28:36
Speaker 3: do They're doing that last year. That's the problem. You
28:38
Speaker 3: got to keep winning to keep the interest, and last
28:40
Speaker 3: year was kind of a struggle.
28:41
Speaker 5: So you guys may have talked about this. Speaking of Marquette,
28:44
Speaker 5: have you gotten your alley beers yesterday?
28:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, Billy, here's our current electric superhero of the day.
28:49
Speaker 3: Dude.
28:49
Speaker 5: It's like now the top five Neil jerseys are all
28:53
Speaker 5: football or men's basketball.
28:55
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
28:56
Speaker 5: But she's number seventh, seven, seventh out of out of
28:59
Speaker 5: you know, and just cloking and hopefully closing in. Her
29:03
Speaker 5: brother plays football at Minnesotanesota and then there's a tight
29:07
Speaker 5: end at Oklahoma Rocky Beers. But what makes her so
29:11
Speaker 5: special is that it's a six pack.
29:12
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, it's the six pack that just
29:14
Speaker 4: makes it so much better. And if she starts hitting,
29:17
Speaker 4: like so she's an outside hitter, is that what is
29:19
Speaker 4: that we talked about. She starts getting some some kills,
29:23
Speaker 4: Holy cow, six Beers are going to be deleted in
29:25
Speaker 4: that student section very quick.
29:27
Speaker 5: And volleyball is big time, not only in the statement
29:31
Speaker 5: across the country. The fact that she's from Slingers were
29:33
Speaker 5: talking about Wisconsin girl, one of the few Wisconsin girls
29:36
Speaker 5: on the roster.
29:37
Speaker 3: That was why that was why I sent it on.
29:39
Speaker 4: It off like when I realized that it was somebody
29:42
Speaker 4: in the state of Wisconsin. We're pumping that nil check
29:44
Speaker 4: in yes and trying to trying to enjoy. Also because
29:47
Speaker 4: I realized when I went to a Marka game last year,
29:49
Speaker 4: I only had like one or two Marqutchers.
29:51
Speaker 3: Now I have a six.
29:51
Speaker 4: Beers one, and as my kids age, I can explain
29:55
Speaker 4: why that's so funny. Every single time that's.
29:57
Speaker 3: Gonna be a perfect perfect I love that. Yeah it is.
30:01
Speaker 3: I got to get some of that Marquek here going. Yeah,
30:03
Speaker 3: the prices keep going up at the so that one's
30:07
Speaker 3: got a deal. No, you don't know they do. It's
30:09
Speaker 3: kind of funny. I was gonna say though about this, man.
30:12
Speaker 3: Now I'm blanked. Oh this is all you were thinking
30:15
Speaker 3: about is prices. I know I wanted to do that. Okay,
30:18
Speaker 3: move on, guys, move on. So I wanted to get
30:20
Speaker 3: this in before we lost our chance. Yes, yours national
30:23
Speaker 3: radio date. I want to honor Dolf with that. Congratulations.
30:26
Speaker 3: Maybe Dolf, because I know we're all in radio. I
30:28
Speaker 3: feel like you are national radio. Oh so what since
30:32
Speaker 3: ninety four? Right, you've been on that? I have, and
30:34
Speaker 3: that's it I've been. I've been to Milwaukee since ninety four.
30:37
Speaker 2: So yeah, how many total years in radio?
30:42
Speaker 3: Forty forty one? Whoa? I started in nineteen eighty five,
30:46
Speaker 3: full time. Yeah.
30:47
Speaker 5: I was pulling down fourteen large doing overnights in quad cities,
30:51
Speaker 5: Rock Island.
30:52
Speaker 4: Love it, Rock Island, Yeah, Stairway at Heaven whenever you
30:55
Speaker 4: needed a little break.
30:56
Speaker 3: Oh yeah. Well.
30:58
Speaker 5: The bad thing about the eighties this music was incredibly
31:01
Speaker 5: shorter overall, so you didn't get a lot of bathroom breaks.
31:04
Speaker 5: And we were part of an AMFM television station. It
31:06
Speaker 5: was downtown building, so I had to go up a
31:08
Speaker 5: floor and towards the back of the building just to
31:10
Speaker 5: use the restroom.
31:11
Speaker 3: Oh poor design of that building.
31:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not positive.
31:14
Speaker 3: So you had to put on a long song.
31:15
Speaker 5: I was actually at a country station, and so I
31:18
Speaker 5: put on some old long four or five minute song
31:21
Speaker 5: and then raced.
31:21
Speaker 3: For the bathroom.
31:22
Speaker 4: I immediately throw in the next two tapes. Yeah, exactly,
31:26
Speaker 4: carts cars.
31:27
Speaker 1: I've only been in this part of the industry half
31:30
Speaker 1: as long as Dolf, like twenty years for me, and
31:33
Speaker 1: I gotta say, like national radio, I still feel like
31:35
Speaker 1: an outsider.
31:37
Speaker 2: Like I'm still like it's not my day. It's for
31:39
Speaker 2: guys lifers like Dolf. Yeah, it's plus. Even when I
31:44
Speaker 2: was working at the newspaper, it's like national, like reporter day.
31:47
Speaker 2: I don't know that I would celebrate a little cheesy.
31:51
Speaker 4: You didn't have you didn't you guys didn't have a
31:52
Speaker 4: collage for National newspaper Day.
31:54
Speaker 3: Oh we getting quotes. We definitely didn't have a cake
31:57
Speaker 3: or anything.
31:58
Speaker 5: Yeah, yea, though I didn't even know it was a
32:01
Speaker 5: thing until a couple of years ago. But I got it.
32:03
Speaker 5: Just sent me down a hall and I started looking.
32:05
Speaker 5: The first radio station in Milwaukee was nineteen twenty two,
32:10
Speaker 5: and then a couple of years later WTMJ came along.
32:13
Speaker 2: But twenty two, I don't, I don't. The station is
32:15
Speaker 2: long gone.
32:15
Speaker 5: Whatever it was, I forget the call layers.
32:18
Speaker 3: I don't know if Doug work See. The thing is,
32:20
Speaker 3: I don't know if Doug worked for that one. No.
32:23
Speaker 3: The joke is because the only reason I remember this
32:25
Speaker 3: day is because Doug posts all the stations he worked for.
32:28
Speaker 3: So that's how I remember it every year. Doug Russell, Yeah,
32:31
Speaker 3: that's true.
32:31
Speaker 1: I see other stations and on social media, other personalities.
32:36
Speaker 2: To say, personalities, things in there. I did get a Facebook.
32:39
Speaker 1: The best thing about probably the only good thing about Facebook,
32:42
Speaker 1: is that it's an archive of your photos and stuff.
32:44
Speaker 1: Good memory kids throw up, like this first day of
32:47
Speaker 1: school stuff you're gonna flash back and see it, or
32:49
Speaker 1: birthdays and stuff.
32:50
Speaker 5: Sadly, most of the radio stations I've worked for are gone.
32:54
Speaker 5: They're gone. The frequencies are still there.
32:56
Speaker 3: But yeah, because you killed them. He dominated here for
32:58
Speaker 3: so long. I think and then things went downhill.
33:01
Speaker 1: That's yes.
33:03
Speaker 5: My first station is the Spanish station now and then,
33:06
Speaker 5: uh I love it. One of my stations that was
33:08
Speaker 5: Top forty is I don't even know they all, but
33:13
Speaker 5: they're all, don't The one I worked at in Madison,
33:15
Speaker 5: which was country at the time, is now I think
33:18
Speaker 5: like eighties something like that.
33:19
Speaker 3: You know what formats change, I mean, that's the nature
33:21
Speaker 3: of radio. Time moves on, time changes, right, we know that.
33:24
Speaker 5: So which that's a lot about this town because a
33:26
Speaker 5: lot of the formats have not changed for decades.
33:28
Speaker 4: I'm still kind of surprised that they didn't want Scott
33:30
Speaker 4: Dolphin doing the Spanish radios.
33:32
Speaker 2: I love it.
33:32
Speaker 5: I don't I don't get. I don't get how that
33:34
Speaker 5: interview didn't play out very well. They did a nice
33:37
Speaker 5: thing for us at that station. They announced to the
33:39
Speaker 5: staff that they were changing to Spanish format, but they
33:43
Speaker 5: gave us like ninety days to get the hell out
33:45
Speaker 5: of town.
33:45
Speaker 2: Oh nice, wow, Okay, I love that's a lot nicer.
33:49
Speaker 3: I love the Quad Cities.
33:50
Speaker 5: I'd probably still be there if they didn't boot me out,
33:53
Speaker 5: because there was the first place I started.
33:55
Speaker 3: I enjoyed it.
33:56
Speaker 2: It was a nice sized town. It was four cities.
33:57
Speaker 2: Can you name the quad cities?
33:59
Speaker 5: Oh, yes, Dubuke, No close, Rock Island, Rock Island, and
34:05
Speaker 5: the two on the Iowa side.
34:06
Speaker 3: I thought the Buke was one of them'ston Door and
34:09
Speaker 3: the team that.
34:09
Speaker 5: Beat Whitefish Bay in the Little League, Davenport.
34:14
Speaker 3: That's the biggest there was.
34:16
Speaker 4: I knew there was a d one, but I knew
34:17
Speaker 4: it wasn't Dubuke, and I was trying to put the name.
34:19
Speaker 3: I was trying to put it.
34:20
Speaker 5: Dubuke's about an hour upstream on the Mississippi, not too
34:22
Speaker 5: far away.
34:23
Speaker 3: How far Cedar Rapids from that?
34:24
Speaker 5: Cedar Rapids not far? Also, so the town I grew
34:28
Speaker 5: up in, Cascade was twenty minutes to Dubuke, in forty
34:30
Speaker 5: five minutes to Cedar Rapids. Yeah, yeah, so Cedar Rapids
34:33
Speaker 5: Iowa City is the same metro area.
34:35
Speaker 3: A lot of good time to wander around out there.
34:37
Speaker 2: Dude, you got to get there.

Speaker 4: doesn't play for. Yesterday, a very very tough moment for
36:44
