- 1:04Speaker 1: Sorry, Candy Emling was looking at what we have in store,
- 1:07Speaker 1: and Candy, your initial thoughts about what you were putting
- 1:10Speaker 1: into this whole thing.
- 1:12Speaker 4: I was kind of surprised, not normally up your wheelhouse.
- 1:17Speaker 4: But you know, I've learned over the years that you
- 1:20Speaker 4: are a gun slinger and you're willing to try different things,
- 1:24Speaker 4: and that's.
- 1:24Speaker 5: What this show is all about tonight.
- 1:28Speaker 2: Yeah, and next Wednesday, we're going to have a triple header.
- 1:30Speaker 1: I'm going to have Molly Murphy coming on at seven,
- 1:34Speaker 1: then Steve and I go on at eight, and we
- 1:36Speaker 1: had the sports have change at nine and the nice
- 1:38Speaker 1: part of what Molly and I are going to do
- 1:40Speaker 1: is promote a non profit organization that talks about helping
- 1:44Speaker 1: disable people through the utile use of horses.
- 1:46Speaker 2: I think it'll be pretty good.
- 1:48Speaker 1: We need to use we need to have her on
- 1:51Speaker 1: early so that we can as the as the what
- 1:55Speaker 1: do you call it appetizer to get to the main
- 1:57Speaker 1: event here. And that's exactly how we have it perfectly structured.
- 2:02Speaker 1: All right, let's get to it. Everybody be the judgre yourself.
- 2:06Speaker 1: That end as bad as I'm making it sound, but
- 2:09Speaker 1: I'll tell you one thing about our platform is alf
- 2:11Speaker 1: Force Tribute. We're not a one trick pony, and tonight
- 2:14Speaker 1: we're going to see you a little bit of that
- 2:16Speaker 1: as well. All right, Katie, We're gonna start off with
- 2:19Speaker 1: Dusty Baker serves in the Military of the Marines.
- 2:22Speaker 2: From nineteen six sixty eight to seventy.
- 2:24Speaker 1: Four, and he just recently finished managing Team Nicaragua and
- 2:28Speaker 1: the WBC. Can't you what are your thoughts about Dusty
- 2:30Speaker 1: Baker and his military background?
- 2:34Speaker 4: You know, I think the military has a good way
- 2:37Speaker 4: of developing character and it helps so that he because
- 2:43Speaker 4: he's been a leader of men. Let's face it, as
- 2:45Speaker 4: a as a coach, you're leading men, You're leading boys
- 2:50Speaker 4: because let's face it, some of them are very young.
- 2:53Speaker 4: So as a coach, you're not just coaching the team,
- 2:56Speaker 4: you're coaching them as men and kind of helping mold them.
- 3:02Speaker 4: And I think military background helps the helps him with that.
- 3:07Speaker 4: You know, it gives you discipline, It teaches you structure,
- 3:12Speaker 4: and I think those are all things that are very
- 3:15Speaker 4: good as a coach to help him in and that's
- 3:19Speaker 4: why he I think he's been around for as long
- 3:22Speaker 4: as he has. I mean he's as a player he
- 3:25Speaker 4: played from sixty eight to eighty six, but then as
- 3:28Speaker 4: a manager from ninety three all the way to twenty
- 3:32Speaker 4: twenty three and now in the World Baseball Classic. You
- 3:35Speaker 4: don't last in an industry such as a professional sport
- 3:40Speaker 4: manager unless you have good character and discipline in all
- 3:44Speaker 4: of those traits that I think he started out learning
- 3:47Speaker 4: with the military.
- 3:50Speaker 2: Steve some thoughts about Dusty Baker.
- 3:53Speaker 5: I agree with everything Candy said.
- 3:56Speaker 3: I'm here to tell you, I mean the military is
- 3:59Speaker 3: great for young people. I mean it instills on you
- 4:03Speaker 3: a sense of self discipline, leadership. I mean, these are
- 4:07Speaker 3: all things you learn while you're in there. You learn
- 4:10Speaker 3: to become a member of a team. And the one
- 4:15Speaker 3: thing about the military that equates perfectly with sports is
- 4:21Speaker 3: you put if you're going to be successful, you put
- 4:25Speaker 3: personal accolades behind team accolades, right, And that's I mean
- 4:32Speaker 3: in the military, you know, everyone says you're just part
- 4:35Speaker 3: of the big you know, green machine, and that's that's
- 4:38Speaker 3: the way. That's the only way it works, you know.
- 4:41Speaker 2: The guy.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Unfortunately, you know, you bust a lot of bubbles when
- 4:45Speaker 3: you say this. But guys like Rambo and whatnot, Chuck
- 4:50Speaker 3: Norris and those guys love their movies, right, but that's
- 4:54Speaker 3: not really the military. It's all about working as a team.
- 4:59Speaker 3: And dus Baker, look, I mean, you don't have a
- 5:03Speaker 3: sixty year career in professional sports if you're not doing
- 5:10Speaker 3: a lot of things right. And that's exactly again, I mean,
- 5:14Speaker 3: these are the the.
- 5:17Speaker 5: Attributes that you learn in the military.
- 5:19Speaker 2: Right.
- 5:20Speaker 3: You learn how to be a mentor, and you have
- 5:25Speaker 3: to be at times a tough dad. Sometimes you have
- 5:29Speaker 3: to be the coddling dad depending on the situation.
- 5:32Speaker 5: And that's what being a good coach is about, right.
- 5:37Speaker 3: You know, good coaches know the guys they have to
- 5:41Speaker 3: lean on hard and they know the guys they.
- 5:43Speaker 5: Have to pick up.
- 5:45Speaker 3: And that's that's one of the hallmarks of great coaching.
- 5:50Speaker 3: And for him to last this long and now to
- 5:52Speaker 3: coach Nicaragua, that's off.
- 5:54Speaker 5: To Dusty Man.
- 5:55Speaker 3: I mean, he's uh, he's seen he's seen a lot
- 5:59Speaker 3: through the I mean, think how much baseball changed since
- 6:02Speaker 3: he was a rookie kid.
- 6:06Speaker 1: Well, the bottom line is as military as you will know,
- 6:09Speaker 1: you've dealt with it. Okay, it's about discipline, and I'll
- 6:13Speaker 1: tell you you're you're in a structured situation. I went
- 6:17Speaker 1: to a little networking event and we talked about boundaries
- 6:20Speaker 1: and structure, and with all due respect, that's what you have,
- 6:24Speaker 1: is you have boundaries and structure. And I think that
- 6:27Speaker 1: that's something that's pretty interesting as well.
- 6:29Speaker 2: So yeah, I do see Baker what he has. I mean, he's.
- 6:31Speaker 1: Headed to the Baseball Hall of Fame. Is his career
- 6:34Speaker 1: speaks for herself. I know he tried to get Nick
- 6:37Speaker 1: work with Nicaragua, but they're zero to seven.
- 6:40Speaker 2: All time in the WBC. Man had nothing to do
- 6:43Speaker 2: with it.
- 6:44Speaker 1: I wanted to get out there and try to manage
- 6:46Speaker 1: a little bit and more power to them. So you know, again,
- 6:50Speaker 1: like I say, structure and boundaries, I think is one
- 6:54Speaker 1: of those types of things that we all wonder about,
- 6:58Speaker 1: and everybody has a different set of values on those
- 7:01Speaker 1: as well. All Right, Kendy, I want to thank you
- 7:04Speaker 1: for being on this segment, and probably we'll definitely see
- 7:08Speaker 1: you on the Sports Exchange as well if you'll provide
- 7:12Speaker 1: us a little bit of a station breage as well.
- 7:15Speaker 1: So thank you, Katy, Thank you Kenny. All right, So Steve,
- 7:19Speaker 1: let's as I get to the subject matter at hand.
- 7:23Speaker 1: I want to set the stage in this manner. When
- 7:27Speaker 1: people have asked me about the Iran Israel United States situation,
- 7:33Speaker 1: I want to predate back to ninth the Carter administration.
- 7:38Speaker 1: Iran took the American hostages, and this ordeal lasted out
- 7:45Speaker 1: for a period of time. I've always viewed Iran as
- 7:49Speaker 1: a first class past would it ended up happening. It
- 7:53Speaker 1: led to the nineteen eighty boycott of the Olympics, and
- 7:57Speaker 1: it also led to the nineteen eighty four boycott of
- 8:00Speaker 1: the LA Olympics. And I was there and it wasn't
- 8:03Speaker 1: and was not to ourselves President Tarter's administration. Obviously, I
- 8:08Speaker 1: don't think was as strong as most people wanted to do,
- 8:11Speaker 1: and we felt like we were being pushed around by them.
- 8:15Speaker 2: And a Ronald Reagan. When's the election? What do you
- 8:18Speaker 2: think the Iranians do?
- 8:19Speaker 1: They must have watched a lot of Western movies because
- 8:22Speaker 1: they called this guy a warmonger. So when you call
- 8:25Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan a warmonger, he was a great actor and
- 8:28Speaker 1: I learned a lot all to this day. One of
- 8:31Speaker 1: my all time favorite presidents. They scared the daylights out
- 8:34Speaker 1: of them because his reputation. Those people were out really
- 8:38Speaker 1: really quick. Why am I bringing this up now? Well,
- 8:42Speaker 1: you know what what's going on in this day and
- 8:45Speaker 1: age Israel. The United States have attanked Iran. They're trying
- 8:51Speaker 1: to get this pest out of the way because of
- 8:53Speaker 1: what nuclear situation. Now our first topic of the day,
- 8:58Speaker 1: we're going to tie it into the Russian military and
- 9:01Speaker 1: what I'm going to do after this. And I want
- 9:02Speaker 1: everybody to know about your military background in addition to
- 9:06Speaker 1: what you cover, but I'm going to get this one
- 9:08Speaker 1: out there first. The Russian military is preparing to take
- 9:11Speaker 1: over Iranian nuclear site and it's nuclear scientists. After Russia
- 9:16Speaker 1: lost all contacts with Iranian nuclear leadership.
- 9:20Speaker 3: What are your thoughts about this, Steve, I don't think
- 9:24Speaker 3: that is going to happen. I can tell you that
- 9:28Speaker 3: the last thing our country needs is Russia getting their
- 9:36Speaker 3: hands back into Iran, especially when you're dealing with nuclear material.
- 9:43Speaker 3: The Russians love to rattle that nuclear saber. And the
- 9:46Speaker 3: last thing that any of the Western countries need is
- 9:51Speaker 3: Iran with a nuclear device. And I know, like a
- 9:55Speaker 3: lot of people are hammering on the president because people
- 9:59Speaker 3: either love them or they hate them. But you have
- 10:02Speaker 3: to forget about that and look at the big picture.
- 10:05Speaker 3: The President in these negotiations, which were nothing more than
- 10:11Speaker 3: a stalling tactic by Iran.
- 10:13Speaker 5: I think everyone should be, you know, have realized that
- 10:17Speaker 5: by now.
- 10:18Speaker 3: You know, they claim, now this is the country with
- 10:23Speaker 3: probably the largest oral reserves in the world. They insisted
- 10:27Speaker 3: they needed nuclear power for their country. The President offered
- 10:34Speaker 3: them free uranium at only a five to twenty percent
- 10:40Speaker 3: enrichment rate, which is only good for using it for
- 10:44Speaker 3: nuclear power.
- 10:45Speaker 5: If you and Richard.
- 10:46Speaker 3: Passed that like the Iranians did, they were one step
- 10:50Speaker 3: below weapons grade and they were enriching.
- 10:53Speaker 5: At sixty percent.
- 10:55Speaker 3: There's only one reason why you would do that, and
- 10:58Speaker 3: that's to build a nuclear weapon. Okay, Now, the President
- 11:02Speaker 3: offered them free uranium in perpetually perpetual forevery had tied there,
- 11:12Speaker 3: but he offered free you know, uranium at you know,
- 11:18Speaker 3: five to twenty percent in Richmond so they could have
- 11:22Speaker 3: their quote unquote nuclear power. They turned it down, and
- 11:26Speaker 3: they pretty much told our negotiators that they were going
- 11:31Speaker 3: to have a weapon and then we would have nothing
- 11:34Speaker 3: to say about it. Well, they've always I mean, they're
- 11:38Speaker 3: for the past forty seven whatever years, right, you know,
- 11:43Speaker 3: their their chance, debt to America, debt to Israel. They're
- 11:46Speaker 3: not That's not just an empty chant.
- 11:49Speaker 5: They mean that.
- 11:50Speaker 3: And so that's why you know, all of this is
- 11:53Speaker 3: happening right now, because they were trying to restart their
- 11:57Speaker 3: nuclear program, and they were doing it under the auspices
- 12:01Speaker 3: of building so many ballistic missiles that no one would
- 12:07Speaker 3: dare try to take them out. And that's why we've
- 12:10Speaker 3: been going after the missiles. But for Russia, who likes
- 12:15Speaker 3: to rattle that nuclear saber all the time, especially what's
- 12:20Speaker 3: going on in Ukraine and with the Western nations there,
- 12:24Speaker 3: the last thing we need is, you know, anyone in
- 12:28Speaker 3: the West is having Russia involved in this, and I
- 12:30Speaker 3: think that we're probably going to stop that from happening.
- 12:36Speaker 1: So I guess what you're saying is loaded, And I'll
- 12:40Speaker 1: say why because of how I went out there and
- 12:43Speaker 1: tried to build this thing up Iran as a past.
- 12:47Speaker 2: And when you rantle that.
- 12:48Speaker 1: Nuclear weapon like you're doing, it's like you're salivating and
- 12:52Speaker 1: you're putting it out there. How else do you expect
- 12:55Speaker 1: everybody to respond your first class past? You know, what
- 13:00Speaker 1: we're trying to do is make sure that pissed or
- 13:02Speaker 1: mosquitos when they get on here, their intent is sustinct, right,
- 13:06Speaker 1: and it hurts and it gets bigger to me. The
- 13:09Speaker 1: Iranians are a mosquito, and the objective here is to
- 13:12Speaker 1: smack them down, is what we're trying to do, so
- 13:15Speaker 1: that they don't become a mosquito.
- 13:17Speaker 5: Well, they're much more than a pest, you know.
- 13:20Speaker 3: I mean, in the past forty seven years, they've been
- 13:23Speaker 3: responsible for the death of thousands of Americans and it's
- 13:30Speaker 3: well documented, and so, I mean, successive administrations in.
- 13:39Speaker 5: The United States have kicked that can down the road.
- 13:42Speaker 2: Right.
- 13:43Speaker 3: They haven't wanted to, you know, actually engage with Irene
- 13:49Speaker 3: They did a little bit during the Reagan administration when
- 13:52Speaker 3: they tried to block the straight of or Moves back
- 13:55Speaker 3: in nineteen eighty seven. And you know, they mined the
- 13:58Speaker 3: straight and then at that time the presidents sunk a
- 14:01Speaker 3: lot of their mind sweepers. You know, a couple of
- 14:07Speaker 3: oil tankers actually hit mines at that time. I can't
- 14:10Speaker 3: remember the exact amount, but I would think it was
- 14:14Speaker 3: about three.
- 14:15Speaker 5: At that time. It could have been more. But anyway,
- 14:19Speaker 5: I mean.
- 14:20Speaker 3: This has been ongoing and you know, they're responsible for
- 14:24Speaker 3: the death of thousands of Americans.
- 14:26Speaker 5: And one of the things I hear all the time,
- 14:29Speaker 5: we weren't at war with Iran.
- 14:31Speaker 3: Well they've been at war with us for forty seven
- 14:33Speaker 3: years and they've made that abundantly clear.
- 14:37Speaker 5: Right, So this was needed.
- 14:39Speaker 3: I'm sorry, no one wants it, but they had no
- 14:44Speaker 3: choice in this.
- 14:45Speaker 2: Totally agree, all right.
- 14:47Speaker 1: So what I want you to do now is give
- 14:49Speaker 1: everybody your background in terms of what you do outside
- 14:53Speaker 1: of what you do it the New England Patriots, and then
- 14:55Speaker 1: we'll continue to the next topic.
- 14:57Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 14:58Speaker 3: Well, I'm a re tired Army Special Forces warrant officer.
- 15:04Speaker 5: I spent.
- 15:07Speaker 3: The majority of my military career and the seventh Special
- 15:11Speaker 3: Forces Group. I was a Green Beret. Since being medically retired,
- 15:20Speaker 3: I now am a journalist. I cover the New England Patriots,
- 15:25Speaker 3: you know, and do that, which is that's my first love.
- 15:30Speaker 3: But I also am a senior defense editor for the
- 15:33Speaker 3: National Security Journal, and I write about military affairs and
- 15:38Speaker 3: military equipment all day long.
- 15:44Speaker 1: So if there's anybody more equipped to be on this
- 15:46Speaker 1: show than Steve Belli's theory, please let me know it is. Otherwise,
- 15:50Speaker 1: I got the man to the right of me equipped
- 15:52Speaker 1: to talk about this, and we're gonna do this weekend
- 15:54Speaker 1: and week out here in the water city Maydmouth. So
- 15:56Speaker 1: let's continue on. You talk about another guy making a
- 15:59Speaker 1: lot of noise.
- 16:00Speaker 2: Chloe titled strong words from North Korea? Is Kim Jong? Why?
- 16:04Speaker 1: If necessary? He says, my army will stand with Iran.
- 16:08Speaker 1: State media report Kim Jong if Iran asks, we will
- 16:12Speaker 1: provide it with missiles against opposition.
- 16:15Speaker 2: One missile is enough to wear race it more. Those
- 16:18Speaker 2: are strong words from the North Korean president.
- 16:21Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's famous for making those. I mean, he's
- 16:25Speaker 3: always threatened in South Korea. But you know, and again,
- 16:31Speaker 3: I mean, he would rather build missiles than feed his
- 16:35Speaker 3: own people. I mean, North Korea is in horrible shape.
- 16:41Speaker 3: They have people dying of starvation and disease every year.
- 16:46Speaker 3: But you know, they they spend all their money on
- 16:50Speaker 3: missiles and they've amassed their own nuclear weapons, which is
- 16:54Speaker 3: the last thing the people in Asian need. Because you know,
- 17:00Speaker 3: one thing I will say, I'll preface this. Kim Jong
- 17:04Speaker 3: ung loves to portray himself as the loose cannon, but
- 17:09Speaker 3: he's he's slick. His family has been ruling Korea for
- 17:13Speaker 3: decades and they don't get to do that if you're
- 17:17Speaker 3: a loose cannon.
- 17:18Speaker 5: You know what I mean. You know what I'm saying.
- 17:20Speaker 3: He loves the threat, but he's short on, you know,
- 17:24Speaker 3: following through with his threats.
- 17:28Speaker 2: Interesting, very interesting.
- 17:31Speaker 1: Well, last week on the Motor City Man Mouse Show,
- 17:34Speaker 1: we talked about living conditions in North Korea. I'm glad
- 17:37Speaker 1: you had more light because we're not done yet with
- 17:39Speaker 1: this guy. He says, my citizens are a president in Iran,
- 17:43Speaker 1: there will be no compromise on their return. If one
- 17:46Speaker 1: of them is harmed, I will join the war without
- 17:49Speaker 1: any hesitation from your main man here, who talks about
- 17:52Speaker 1: what he said in this sequence.
- 17:54Speaker 5: Yeah, he also sent uh several I mean several I believe.
- 18:02Speaker 3: North Korean quote unquote volunteers right to Ukraine to fight
- 18:08Speaker 3: the Russians, but most of them have been wiped out
- 18:14Speaker 3: in human wave attacks against the Ukrainian Army forces, in
- 18:21Speaker 3: frontal wave assaults. But I've seen some of the videos
- 18:25Speaker 3: that were coming out of there, you know, as part
- 18:28Speaker 3: of this, you know the stuff I write about, and
- 18:31Speaker 3: it was absolutely horrible to watch to see like five
- 18:35Speaker 3: hundred North Koreans charge across an open field of possibly
- 18:41Speaker 3: about a quarter mile with no cover and concealment, just
- 18:46Speaker 3: charging across against modern weapons and and you know, automatic
- 18:51Speaker 3: weapons and artillery fire. You can imagine what that looked like.
- 18:55Speaker 3: And none of them made it across.
- 18:59Speaker 1: So I'm going to ask you a question about this guy.
- 19:02Speaker 1: He makes a lot of noise, and he seems like
- 19:06Speaker 1: he makes a lot. Is he a guy that everybody
- 19:10Speaker 1: around the world should be fearing or do you think
- 19:12Speaker 1: that really? You know, I understand that he obviously talks big,
- 19:17Speaker 1: but his actions are they good enough to speak louder
- 19:21Speaker 1: than his words?
- 19:23Speaker 3: Well, like I said, he loves to rattle the saber.
- 19:27Speaker 3: Now he did follow through. He promised putin that he
- 19:31Speaker 3: would send troops to Ukraine and he follow through, that
- 19:37Speaker 3: would I'd be shocked to see North Korean troops end
- 19:41Speaker 3: up and Iran.
- 19:44Speaker 5: No, I would not if he tried to follow through with.
- 19:49Speaker 3: His threats about, you know, launching nuclear weapons at South Korea.
- 19:57Speaker 3: And I believe he made some mention about President Trump
- 20:01Speaker 3: the other day doing the same thing. I mean, I
- 20:07Speaker 3: wouldn't say you have to totally discount it, but I
- 20:11Speaker 3: think the chances of that happening are very slim because
- 20:14Speaker 3: he knows at that moment if he were to do that,
- 20:19Speaker 3: North Korea would disappear.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Okay, Well, like what you just said, North Korea would
- 20:24Speaker 1: disappear because he.
- 20:26Speaker 3: Was launch a nuclear weapon at the United States or
- 20:30Speaker 3: South Korea. They're going to respond in kind, and it
- 20:33Speaker 3: will I mean that country will cease to exist.
- 20:40Speaker 2: Most so that's that. Okay. Now you bring up an
- 20:42Speaker 2: interesting point.
- 20:44Speaker 1: There used to be West Germany in East Germany and
- 20:47Speaker 1: now it's wear it on that wall. Do you think
- 20:50Speaker 1: you could ever predict in your mind that Korea could
- 20:53Speaker 1: be all one instead of being broken down to the North.
- 20:55Speaker 2: And South Korea.
- 20:57Speaker 3: I think eventually it's going to happen. I mean the
- 21:01Speaker 3: problem is, again, you have autocratic regime under him, where
- 21:08Speaker 3: the people have been you know, totally under the thumb.
- 21:13Speaker 3: I mean, they've run a brutal dictatorship there, right okay,
- 21:21Speaker 3: And and for them to be able to rise up
- 21:24Speaker 3: against him, the chances of that happening I think are
- 21:29Speaker 3: very very slim. But eventually, I think it's probably going
- 21:35Speaker 3: to come from within his own military that eventually they'll
- 21:39Speaker 3: get sick of, you know, him, and you know, the
- 21:43Speaker 3: country being in the shape that it's in, and somebody's
- 21:47Speaker 3: gonna have to do that. But I don't think it's
- 21:50Speaker 3: imminent in any way shape.
- 21:53Speaker 2: Curious. You know, let's face the reality.
- 21:56Speaker 1: No, you're telling me the traditions that aren't very good,
- 21:59Speaker 1: and he'd rather build missiles instead of feeding this people.
- 22:03Speaker 1: And right now he certainly has a stranglehold on that
- 22:05Speaker 1: country and that's been ruled forever. But you never know,
- 22:08Speaker 1: at some point down the road. And these are the
- 22:10Speaker 1: kinds of topics we're going to get talk about. We're
- 22:12Speaker 1: not looking to take left wing, right wing types of things.
- 22:15Speaker 1: We're talking about basic issues that we're trying to enlighten
- 22:18Speaker 1: you on. So for those of you that we're flitting over. No,
- 22:21Speaker 1: we're not doing that season military writer. We're both journalists.
- 22:26Speaker 1: We're just trying to simplify some of the things that
- 22:28Speaker 1: are going on, and this is something that's very fluid anyways,
- 22:31Speaker 1: as well, I will take our focus off a little
- 22:34Speaker 1: bit and concentrate on You're going to see a lot
- 22:37Speaker 1: of things about capital punishment and the death penalty and
- 22:42Speaker 1: executions on this show.
- 22:44Speaker 2: I've done it before, and I'm going to do it
- 22:45Speaker 2: week in and week out.
- 22:47Speaker 1: I'm in a state of Florida where Ron DeSantis is
- 22:50Speaker 1: trying to get rid of a lot of the dead weight,
- 22:53Speaker 1: so to speak, on there because of past crimes, and
- 22:56Speaker 1: he doesn't want to start feeding these people when it's
- 22:58Speaker 1: time to finally say were obviously sentenced to this, It's
- 23:02Speaker 1: time to clean things up. So we're gonna talk about
- 23:04Speaker 1: a situation or a man was. A man convicted of
- 23:09Speaker 1: fatally shooting a police officer with his own service weapon
- 23:13Speaker 1: during a traffic stop was executed. The key thing here
- 23:17Speaker 1: is this, Okay, you do not kill a cop. You
- 23:22Speaker 1: just don't do it. And if you do to me,
- 23:27Speaker 1: that gets you in trouble. Let alone, in the state
- 23:29Speaker 1: of Florida, thoughts, cops, you can't kill him. If you
- 23:38Speaker 1: do this way, you might as well discount your You
- 23:44Speaker 1: might as well get ready for your last words. Were
- 23:46Speaker 1: your talks about going governor to Santus is handling these things?
- 23:50Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, the death penalty is such a
- 23:53Speaker 3: thorny subject with so many people, and you know, people
- 23:57Speaker 3: bring up some really good points.
- 23:59Speaker 5: Is it really ah, you know, Deterrent, I don't know.
- 24:04Speaker 5: I don't know. I mean, look, there's so many people today.
- 24:10Speaker 3: I think you know that our country has gone through
- 24:14Speaker 3: some really big changes and you know, the breakdown of
- 24:19Speaker 3: the family that I mean, people don't respect life as
- 24:22Speaker 3: they did in generation's past. That being said, I believe
- 24:28Speaker 3: that the death penalty should absolutely be used in certain situations.
- 24:34Speaker 3: I mean, if you're killing police officers or any kind
- 24:38Speaker 3: of law enforcement types, I think that that should be
- 24:42Speaker 3: right on there. Any kind of terrorism charges, absolutely it
- 24:46Speaker 3: should be on the table because I mean, some of
- 24:49Speaker 3: these people, I mean, then they commit some heinous, heinous
- 24:55Speaker 3: crimes and then you're feeding them for fifty or six exactly,
- 25:02Speaker 3: And I mean is that I mean, is that justice?
- 25:07Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 25:08Speaker 3: I I firmly believe that in certain cases the death
- 25:12Speaker 3: penalty should be used, but I'm leary about them using it.
- 25:19Speaker 5: Too liberally, if you get my drift.
- 25:22Speaker 2: Mean, oh, yeah, totally.
- 25:23Speaker 1: I mean, let's say you're going to research these things
- 25:26Speaker 1: a little bit about where you need to use it,
- 25:27Speaker 1: but something that lasted way too long, especially in the
- 25:30Speaker 1: nature of the crimes.
- 25:31Speaker 3: Yeah, and sometimes we've seen in the past in all states,
- 25:36Speaker 3: not just in Florida, but in all states, right, people
- 25:41Speaker 3: who've been spending time on death row or years down
- 25:44Speaker 3: the road are proven innocent.
- 25:46Speaker 5: That's why I think that it.
- 25:48Speaker 3: Has to be it has to be very very cut
- 25:51Speaker 3: and dried, you know, with the circumstances. And in that case,
- 25:56Speaker 3: I think, yes, I'm a believer in the.
- 25:58Speaker 1: Death Yeah, me too, I mean, and I think that's
- 26:04Speaker 1: the important part about the whole thing is. And I'm
- 26:08Speaker 1: going to mention individual cases steam as we continue to
- 26:12Speaker 1: talk about things on the show, for sure. And I
- 26:15Speaker 1: think this is just the first example of what we're
- 26:17Speaker 1: going to be doing. Two more topics. I want to
- 26:19Speaker 1: get to. Our target on these shows is about forty
- 26:22Speaker 1: five minutes tops, and that gives everybody a chance to
- 26:25Speaker 1: absorb it.
- 26:25Speaker 2: And just to give you an opportunity to go out
- 26:27Speaker 2: there and get a feel for what we're going to do.
- 26:31Speaker 1: We're trying to make sure that the South Foord Distribute
- 26:33Speaker 1: is not a one trick pony. We want to make
- 26:36Speaker 1: sure that in addition to the sports, we're going to
- 26:38Speaker 1: entertainment and Steve and I are going to take it
- 26:40Speaker 1: upon ourselves to do this show every week and try
- 26:43Speaker 1: to bring up to date. This is not divide to
- 26:45Speaker 1: go off our policy. It's just something that we want
- 26:48Speaker 1: to make sure that we're able to do.
- 26:50Speaker 2: All right.
- 26:50Speaker 1: So, now, former Vice President Mike Pence a lot of
- 26:55Speaker 1: the Supreme Court's decision to strike down many Trump's administration's
- 26:59Speaker 1: tariffs by six three. Majority of court justice's ruled that
- 27:04Speaker 1: President Trump unluffily used an urgency statute to impose for
- 27:10Speaker 1: reaching tariffs trading partners. The former president Vice President Pants
- 27:15Speaker 1: praises tariff ruling as they win for Americans and the
- 27:18Speaker 1: separation of powers. You're thoughts about where the Vice president stands.
- 27:22Speaker 3: Yeah, I look, I was on the fence of tariffs.
- 27:28Speaker 3: But at the same time, look, you know, I know
- 27:32Speaker 3: the President was. I mean, he was trying to tariff everybody, right, right,
- 27:37Speaker 3: But one of the well several good things came of it.
- 27:41Speaker 5: I mean, he ended up.
- 27:44Speaker 3: Negotiating much better trade deals for the United States through
- 27:50Speaker 3: his tariffs, right. I mean, you know we saw that,
- 27:53Speaker 3: and that's one of the things that you know, I was,
- 27:58Speaker 3: like I said, I was on the fence with that.
- 28:00Speaker 3: I thought he was wielding it a little too literally again,
- 28:05Speaker 3: you know, with the I mean he was you know,
- 28:08Speaker 3: anytime somebody said something he didn't agree with, he was
- 28:10Speaker 3: raising their tariffs.
- 28:11Speaker 5: And I think that it was wrong.
- 28:15Speaker 3: But at the same time, you know, a lot of
- 28:19Speaker 3: that came about because we had such bad trade agreements
- 28:26Speaker 3: with a lot of these countries.
- 28:27Speaker 5: And I agree with the president.
- 28:30Speaker 3: They were taking advantage of the United States, right, And
- 28:33Speaker 3: a lot of these trade agreements that he's come up
- 28:36Speaker 3: with are now in place because of you know, he
- 28:40Speaker 3: threatened them with the tariffs. Now, yeah, I agreed that
- 28:44Speaker 3: the tariffs need to go, but I think people were
- 28:51Speaker 3: taking it a little bit too far with that.
- 28:56Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, let's not caresl them up. The president. He
- 29:00Speaker 2: is an established business person. That's what you have in office. Okay.
- 29:04Speaker 1: He's not a push around or pushover. He's not that
- 29:07Speaker 1: type of person. That's why he's making the position that
- 29:10Speaker 1: Iran that's why he's doing the terrorit things. You certainly
- 29:13Speaker 1: don't want to alienate places like Canada or some of
- 29:18Speaker 1: your allies, and I understand that. So again this is
- 29:21Speaker 1: where I see both sides of it. But again, business
- 29:25Speaker 1: is just simply business and that's all there is to it.
- 29:27Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to read into it. But if
- 29:31Speaker 1: you're telling me then indeed that he's trying to negotiate
- 29:34Speaker 1: better deals. It's pretty hard to really give the president
- 29:39Speaker 1: a hard time. Now if you want to get on
- 29:40Speaker 1: him for what he did with the United States Football
- 29:43Speaker 1: League and you want to go out there and move
- 29:45Speaker 1: into the spring, and of course you have herschel Walker.
- 29:47Speaker 2: I'm sure that's not a question he particularly care.
- 29:50Speaker 1: But many years ago I got actually invited to his
- 29:53Speaker 1: suite during the USFL championship game in nineteen eighty four.
- 29:57Speaker 1: And there's a different animal. Then you can get underskin
- 30:00Speaker 1: that way in the NFL doesn't want not to deal
- 30:02Speaker 1: with them. But as far as this type of stuff here,
- 30:06Speaker 1: I see both sides and I'll leave it at that. Well,
- 30:09Speaker 1: guess what we're gonna get off of these type of
- 30:12Speaker 1: subjects and we'll close out the show with one other topic. Again,
- 30:17Speaker 1: it's not the amount of time you do a show
- 30:19Speaker 1: like this. We want to make sure we keep everything
- 30:21Speaker 1: pretty straightforward and down to earth, and I'll continue to
- 30:24Speaker 1: come up with more topics as we go along, but
- 30:28Speaker 1: these are things we're gonna get used to say.
- 30:30Speaker 3: And then this is awesome, by the way, because you
- 30:32Speaker 3: didn't share any of the topics with me, so this
- 30:35Speaker 3: is like straight off the cuff tonight.
- 30:37Speaker 5: And then well that's keeping me on my toes.
- 30:40Speaker 2: Yeah, but don't you like that?
- 30:43Speaker 5: I love it.
- 30:44Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. I mean,
- 30:47Speaker 2: come on, that's to be You and I are different.
- 30:49Speaker 1: We could talk about if you were to throw these
- 30:51Speaker 1: topics at mean, and it was like, sort of the
- 30:54Speaker 1: one thing people have to understand about our industry is
- 30:58Speaker 1: anybody can be given topics to research.
- 31:01Speaker 2: You and I don't need that.
- 31:02Speaker 1: You and I are established journalists that have been in
- 31:05Speaker 1: the business, while the biggest exercise about this stuff is
- 31:08Speaker 1: being able to think on your feet and not be
- 31:11Speaker 1: a robot. And that's why we work so well together
- 31:15Speaker 1: and doing so much stuff. That's why we're going to
- 31:17Speaker 1: keep these shows very.
- 31:18Speaker 5: Very that's why we get along so well too.
- 31:20Speaker 2: Oh, you and I get a love so well. You know,
- 31:22Speaker 2: I just brothers. I'm telling you.
- 31:24Speaker 1: That's why we That's why I bring you in some
- 31:26Speaker 1: of these off the wall crazy projects because we know
- 31:29Speaker 1: what we're going to do with them. We realize that
- 31:31Speaker 1: what the era that we're starting here now is something
- 31:34Speaker 1: brand new that our audience isn't really familiar with.
- 31:37Speaker 2: I get it.
- 31:37Speaker 1: It's going to take it a little time for people
- 31:39Speaker 1: to acclimate this from it. I don't care because there's
- 31:41Speaker 1: so many different ways you could share it. But it's
- 31:43Speaker 1: a social media YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn wherever, you know. It
- 31:48Speaker 1: doesn't that's what it's all about. But you and I
- 31:51Speaker 1: are just what we are. We know what we have
- 31:53Speaker 1: to do, and we don't have to be smooth fed
- 31:55Speaker 1: in this business. We really don't, I mean, and that's
- 31:58Speaker 1: why I picked you. You were my personally choice to
- 32:00Speaker 1: do this because I felt with your background in the
- 32:03Speaker 1: military and your ability to write about it, now, it's
- 32:06Speaker 1: time for you and I to be able to do
- 32:07Speaker 1: something different and be able to put it in words
- 32:10Speaker 1: and let people take what we have to say, and
- 32:14Speaker 1: be able to make sure that everything is put into perspective,
- 32:20Speaker 1: and that's what we're gonna do. So, all right, final
- 32:24Speaker 1: topic of the night, and we're going to talk about
- 32:28Speaker 1: Mike to Rico. Back then September, it was announced, I'm
- 32:32Speaker 1: talking back September, I was out Tea would contribute to
- 32:34Speaker 1: opening ceremony coverage of the Olympics, obviously, and now and
- 32:39Speaker 1: from California where he will be preparing for Super Bowl week.
- 32:43Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you one thing about Mike to Rico.
- 32:46Speaker 1: This guy is the biggest pro that I have ever
- 32:49Speaker 1: seen in my life. And the way he handled the
- 32:52Speaker 1: Olympic coverage and the Super Bowl with nothing short of
- 32:55Speaker 1: outstanding some thoughts.
- 32:57Speaker 3: Absolutely, I couldn't agree with you more on this. I mean,
- 33:01Speaker 3: there's absolutely no gray area for me. He does such
- 33:05Speaker 3: a fantastic job with the NFL. I'm a big fan
- 33:09Speaker 3: of that, and I was curious of how he was
- 33:12Speaker 3: going to do with the Olympics. I mean, I thought
- 33:15Speaker 3: he hit it out of the part. He handled everything
- 33:19Speaker 3: so well.
- 33:20Speaker 5: It was like.
- 33:22Speaker 3: He had been doing this his whole life. You know,
- 33:25Speaker 3: call him the Olympics and you know, it's a different
- 33:29Speaker 3: animal when you're you know, when you're in the the
- 33:32Speaker 3: Olympic room rather than you know, because we're used to
- 33:34Speaker 3: the NFL, right, I mean, this is what you know,
- 33:37Speaker 3: the the business we chose because we love it, and
- 33:42Speaker 3: it's it's a different animal. The way you know, you
- 33:47Speaker 3: approach it, the way you call the games and the Olympics,
- 33:51Speaker 3: it's completely different. And I thought he was fantastic.
- 33:55Speaker 1: I love, Yeah, he out Mike Tarico is he's from that.
- 34:02Speaker 1: He's living in Annibur, Michigan, is what he's doing. But
- 34:04Speaker 1: you talk about anything this guy can do, he's only
- 34:07Speaker 1: a thirteenth different voice to do with super Bowl in
- 34:10Speaker 1: the first place, and what he does, it's a moderator
- 34:14Speaker 1: any play by play.
- 34:15Speaker 2: This guy's just surreal.
- 34:17Speaker 1: And the way he was able to multi task, okay,
- 34:22Speaker 1: the way he did was nothing short of outstanding. It
- 34:24Speaker 1: really really is. And you know, you just can't ask
- 34:28Speaker 1: for a bigger pro than this guy. If there's a
- 34:30Speaker 1: Broadcasting Hall of Fame at some point, this guy.
- 34:33Speaker 2: Gonna be in it. He really, really, really well. I mean,
- 34:36Speaker 2: there's no no what's that.
- 34:40Speaker 5: Have you met Mike?
- 34:42Speaker 2: You know what?
- 34:42Speaker 1: I met him one time, Steve for Super Bowl thirty
- 34:46Speaker 1: three down in Miami. I think I don't know if
- 34:48Speaker 1: we were on a bus going to the stadium, we're
- 34:51Speaker 1: in media or over in the radio row or that area,
- 34:56Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But he's said he's a
- 34:58Speaker 1: super class guy. I mean I was, Look, that's the
- 35:02Speaker 1: way I I have never met him, but that's the
- 35:06Speaker 1: way I picture him to be.
- 35:09Speaker 3: I think he would be a super guy to sit
- 35:12Speaker 3: down and talk sports with, you know, or talk about
- 35:15Speaker 3: anything for that matter. I mean, but you know, you know,
- 35:18Speaker 3: we deal in the sports world primarily, so you know,
- 35:22Speaker 3: I would love to sit down and talk football with.
- 35:26Speaker 1: Listen, you and I can you can tell some Steve
- 35:29Speaker 1: the one thing I needed to work on for me,
- 35:31Speaker 1: So maybe you break up them not and he is,
- 35:33Speaker 1: who's your radio guy out in New England. We need
- 35:37Speaker 1: to get him on this show. You know, we got
- 35:40Speaker 1: to get him on this show, can you?
- 35:41Speaker 2: Well you work on that.
- 35:43Speaker 5: The voice of the New New England Patriots, but a
- 35:46Speaker 5: great guy. He was the voice of Navy football for
- 35:49Speaker 5: many years.
- 35:51Speaker 3: And then when the Patriots long time announced it, you know,
- 35:57Speaker 3: Gil Santos retired, they brought and Bob we had. I mean,
- 36:02Speaker 3: Gil was a he was an icon in Boston sports.
- 36:08Speaker 3: He had called the Patriots for over thirty years and
- 36:11Speaker 3: he was beloved there, and you know that was big
- 36:15Speaker 3: shoes to fill. And Bob was coming from Navy, and
- 36:18Speaker 3: you know, I always like to pick that Bob because
- 36:21Speaker 3: an Army guy and Bob.
- 36:23Speaker 5: Calling the game for Navy every year, the Army Navy game.
- 36:26Speaker 3: You know, we go back and forth with each other,
- 36:28Speaker 3: but we always say the same thing at the end
- 36:30Speaker 3: of the day.
- 36:31Speaker 5: That's the only two teams that become teammates.
- 36:34Speaker 3: When they graduate out of you know, the the respective academy.
- 36:39Speaker 5: So, but Bob's a great guy.
- 36:43Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll reach out to him and see if we
- 36:48Speaker 3: can get him on.
- 36:49Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a show that's ours. Okay, I'm Otor
- 36:51Speaker 1: Team Memo shows. This is a Motor City Menbo team,
- 36:54Speaker 1: you and I. So now you haven't even tell him.
- 36:56Speaker 1: We do this every Wednesday night from eight till nine
- 36:59Speaker 1: or so. You know, I mean, we'll get him on there.
- 37:01Speaker 1: We'll just have a field day with a Bob because
- 37:03Speaker 1: I met him over at nsm A a long time
- 37:05Speaker 1: and one of the super nice guys.
- 37:06Speaker 2: I've ever seen him. I like this guy.
- 37:08Speaker 1: And now you tell him, Steve that you know, we'll
- 37:11Speaker 1: give our people a little break from the politics. We're
- 37:13Speaker 1: going to have talks some heavy duty stuff with Bob associate.
- 37:16Speaker 1: But now you tell me, we've got a place to
- 37:17Speaker 1: bring this guy the you and I and him, and
- 37:19Speaker 1: we're gonna have a lot of fun. And this is
- 37:21Speaker 1: the show Steve, that you and I are going to
- 37:23Speaker 1: do whatever we want. And I always, you know, don
- 37:26Speaker 1: Wolf Gavity suggests just shoot me a text and we'll
- 37:28Speaker 1: be able to do that and we'll be anything goes
- 37:31Speaker 1: on this particular show.
- 37:32Speaker 3: Well back when when I was still living up in
- 37:36Speaker 3: New England and covering the Patriots down a training camp,
- 37:40Speaker 3: I would like to sit right beside Bob in the
- 37:43Speaker 3: front row when Bill Belichick would give us press conference,
- 37:47Speaker 3: and Bob and I would always, you know, make jokes
- 37:51Speaker 3: like who's going to be what we used to call
- 37:53Speaker 3: the guy today that would ask Bill something really dumb
- 37:58Speaker 3: and then Belichick give you that black stare for like
- 38:00Speaker 3: twenty seconds, a huge, uncomfortable silence, and we used to
- 38:06Speaker 3: laugh because we're like, who's going to be that guy today?
- 38:09Speaker 5: But I remember I.
- 38:10Speaker 3: Used to always joke with Bob, I'm gonna ask Bill
- 38:14Speaker 3: when we get an army guy, you know on the Patriots,
- 38:17Speaker 3: because Bill famously said one time, I'll never have an
- 38:24Speaker 3: army guy on the Patriots, you know, because he's you know,
- 38:27Speaker 3: grew up at the Naval Academy. But I do know
- 38:30Speaker 3: that prior to him getting killed in Afghanistan, he he offered.
- 38:40Speaker 5: A position for.
- 38:43Speaker 3: NFL player too when he came back from Afghanistan. That
- 38:48Speaker 3: you know, he had to hold a place for him.
- 38:50Speaker 3: So but anyway, make a long story short. So this
- 38:58Speaker 3: one day, Belichick was in a good mood. He was
- 39:01Speaker 3: joking and you know with the media, which he never did, right, laughing.
- 39:05Speaker 5: It's in a really good mood.
- 39:07Speaker 3: So I said to Bob, you know I always wore
- 39:09Speaker 3: my army hat there, right, And I said, I'm going
- 39:12Speaker 3: to ask Bill today.
- 39:13Speaker 5: He said, don't do it, don't do it. Well, we're
- 39:16Speaker 5: right in the front row, so you know.
- 39:19Speaker 3: Bill can hear us whispering, right, So then you know,
- 39:23Speaker 3: he finishes up his his press conference and he looked
- 39:27Speaker 3: straight at me and he goes, anyone else have any questions,
- 39:32Speaker 3: And he was looking straight at me, Bob, Bob is
- 39:35Speaker 3: beside me, don't don't say anything. And I just pointed
- 39:39Speaker 3: at my hat and I gave him a look.
- 39:41Speaker 5: Like dollish exs mom said, well, we're done here.
- 39:47Speaker 1: Really, well, you know, I got a story that will
- 39:50Speaker 1: top hears. All righty for this, and we'll talk about
- 39:52Speaker 1: it more efficially we get in person. I ran into
- 39:56Speaker 1: a situation this past football season. All my interviews with
- 39:59Speaker 1: the and coaches are good, but then I get the
- 40:02Speaker 1: last game of the year. I'm doing my research, okay,
- 40:06Speaker 1: and I saw an irony, okay, that Dave Dorn's birthday
- 40:12Speaker 1: was the same as.
- 40:14Speaker 2: You know, my significant mother as well as my niece December.
- 40:20Speaker 1: Now, obviously the guy got his tailkicked by the Miami
- 40:23Speaker 1: Hurricanes forty one to seven.
- 40:26Speaker 2: And all I said in this press conference, okay, was you.
- 40:31Speaker 1: Know, just a little irony blah blah blah, your birthday
- 40:33Speaker 1: is the same with so well this guy saying, and
- 40:36Speaker 1: I'm going to send you the tape to steam of
- 40:38Speaker 1: that eventually. And that because this guy, Dave Dorn, okay,
- 40:42Speaker 1: d O E R E N is the biggest scumbag
- 40:46Speaker 1: I have ever dealt with in my entire life. Now,
- 40:50Speaker 1: keep in mind, was so good about having you on,
- 40:52Speaker 1: Steve BALLISTERI is going to rate my forward of lessons
- 40:56Speaker 1: from the microphone part two, So don't let me tell you,
- 40:58Speaker 1: you're going to see this story in there.
- 41:00Speaker 2: I won't hesitate to do what I've gotta do.
- 41:02Speaker 1: And you know, this guy went off on a little
- 41:04Speaker 1: tantrum for nothing, like really, you know, obviously trying to
- 41:08Speaker 1: let things up.
- 41:09Speaker 2: I'll bit, you got your tail kicked. I mean, this
- 41:11Speaker 2: is just a tantrum.
- 41:12Speaker 1: Like you know, you got a fifty seven year old
- 41:14Speaker 1: guy acting like a five year old.
- 41:16Speaker 2: It really really was like a five year old. And
- 41:20Speaker 2: I went on.
- 41:20Speaker 1: So what I did a few days later is I
- 41:23Speaker 1: tore this guy apart, you know what I mean, and
- 41:25Speaker 1: literally brought a lot of people on.
- 41:27Speaker 2: Well, I'm not done yet with this guy.
- 41:30Speaker 1: I'm just and I number one, I've been around the
- 41:34Speaker 1: business a long time. But I later did more research
- 41:38Speaker 1: on him, and he doesn't get along with the media
- 41:41Speaker 1: at all, or he is a very bad track record.
- 41:44Speaker 1: I don't know how a guy like him stays as
- 41:47Speaker 1: the head coach of a major university with an indigen
- 41:50Speaker 1: track record like he does, or the face of the
- 41:53Speaker 1: university should be hoping that the media treats him decently,
- 41:57Speaker 1: that he doesn't act like a first class joker and
- 42:01Speaker 1: a jerk. And I and I could be is this
- 42:03Speaker 1: is somewhat of a family show. I can say words
- 42:07Speaker 1: far worse than what I'm telling you. But Steve, I'm
- 42:09Speaker 1: going to tell you Dave Dorn is the biggest stumbbag
- 42:13Speaker 1: in all my forty seven years in this business. And
- 42:16Speaker 1: it takes a lot to become number one, but Dave
- 42:18Speaker 1: Dorn of NC State football is definitely it. And you
- 42:22Speaker 1: know what I mean, asked him what I had to
- 42:23Speaker 1: stay in the air. But wait till I see this
- 42:26Speaker 1: guy in person. If you think that Mike Tyson bit
- 42:31Speaker 1: evanner Holyfield's ear off, wait till I bite Dave Doran's
- 42:34Speaker 1: head off and I go back at him again. I mean,
- 42:37Speaker 1: that's how much this really gets to me. Because I
- 42:41Speaker 1: can tolerate a lot of things, but that now. But
- 42:44Speaker 1: he's gonna find out that I have a plan, and
- 42:47Speaker 1: you and I are going to talk about it anyways,
- 42:49Speaker 1: you know. But that's what you're doing with Belichick. Seems
- 42:52Speaker 1: like he's easy, competitive joker, well.
- 42:56Speaker 3: Be Bells, you know, and I don't you know, I
- 43:00Speaker 3: no Bill like some of the big guys did.
- 43:04Speaker 5: But you know, just sitting there, you know he wouldn't
- 43:11Speaker 5: give very much.
- 43:12Speaker 3: You had to learn how to read, you know, between
- 43:15Speaker 3: the lines, as we used to say, read the tea
- 43:18Speaker 3: leaves right, because he'd only throw out a little you know, snippets.
- 43:23Speaker 3: But the one thing that if you ask the question
- 43:28Speaker 3: that had to do with like say, you know they're
- 43:32Speaker 3: changing a new rule, right, and how it affected the
- 43:36Speaker 3: game and how it might you know, be looked upon,
- 43:39Speaker 3: like in the history of the game. If you've got
- 43:42Speaker 3: Belichick talking about the history of the NFL, just sit
- 43:47Speaker 3: back in your chair and just make sure that voice
- 43:52Speaker 3: recorder is on, because you're going to get about fifteen
- 43:55Speaker 3: or twenty minutes where he doesn't come up for air
- 43:58Speaker 3: and he is just blowing you away with awesome stuff.
- 44:03Speaker 5: And I used to love that because when.
- 44:06Speaker 3: He would talk about the history of the game, he
- 44:08Speaker 3: could recall you know, games, you know, the situation down
- 44:14Speaker 3: in distance, how many you know minutes were left on
- 44:17Speaker 3: the in the game clock. I mean, he he would
- 44:20Speaker 3: tell you everything, and it was always a treat. That
- 44:25Speaker 3: was the best part.
- 44:29Speaker 2: Great stuff.
- 44:30Speaker 1: I'm gonna be picking your brain about Belichick anyway, but
- 44:33Speaker 1: you gotta please work on getting sociate on in the
- 44:35Speaker 1: next few weeks or.
- 44:36Speaker 2: So because.
- 44:39Speaker 5: Him I'll email him tonight.
- 44:41Speaker 1: Tell him, you got your own show with me, and
- 44:43Speaker 1: he knows me from the NSMHL.
- 44:45Speaker 2: So we have a lot of fun on this I
- 44:46Speaker 2: mean now and this is and it's been great.
- 44:49Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not saying we won't put sports topics
- 44:51Speaker 1: in here, but they're gonna put some different ones.
- 44:53Speaker 2: You won't see any of our other shows.
- 44:55Speaker 1: Steve and I started in the sports thing, but now
- 44:57Speaker 1: I've been able to find something that Steve was unbelievably
- 45:01Speaker 1: very versatile, and when you find something like that, where
- 45:04Speaker 1: we're versatile, and I'm looking to rebrand a little bit,
- 45:07Speaker 1: so I'm not a one trick pony, and I want
- 45:09Speaker 1: to go out there and start doing more nonsports versus
- 45:11Speaker 1: sports stuff. Michael Steve really is to get stay in
- 45:15Speaker 1: the business fifty years. I'm at forty seven. I don't
- 45:18Speaker 1: see any reason why I can't do this for another
- 45:20Speaker 1: three years and do some major networking locally, then be
- 45:23Speaker 1: able to find some hidden dems with come on these shows.
- 45:26Speaker 1: You might find some of our guests are coming from
- 45:28Speaker 1: our community, and we may be able to do soccer
- 45:30Speaker 1: topics and you'll get to know some of these individuals
- 45:34Speaker 1: on top of what we're doing. I mean there's no
- 45:37Speaker 1: set format or boundaries how we're going to do this.
- 45:40Speaker 1: We're going to go out there and understand that the
- 45:42Speaker 1: objective behind what we're doing, Steve, it's all human interest,
- 45:46Speaker 1: and you and I know what human interest in feature
- 45:48Speaker 1: story is about, and that's what keeps the new cycle going.
- 45:52Speaker 1: We're not rewriting that. We're not rewriting the amendments or
- 45:57Speaker 1: another We're not doing any of that stuff at all.
- 46:00Speaker 1: All we're trying to do is just talk about life
- 46:03Speaker 1: in general anyway. So that's Katie Evely come on for
- 46:09Speaker 1: the station breaks. He's gonna everyone know how they get
