2:36
Speaker 1: I lead this hour from the courtroom. That's right. We
2:40
Speaker 1: love a good legal drama. Now, before we get into this,
2:42
Speaker 1: let me point out that we have been on all
2:44
Speaker 1: night and we've done full Mallard monologues on all the
2:47
Speaker 1: big stories. Here we break down everything. The Baseball Playoffs
2:51
Speaker 1: says the Red Sox have been exterminated. They have been
2:55
Speaker 1: kicked out of the playoffs, ejected, they have been told
2:58
Speaker 1: to vacate the premises they're losing to the Yankees and
3:02
Speaker 1: shut out fashion as Cam Schlitzer shoved it down their throats.
3:07
Speaker 1: Wild scene there in that game. Also, we had the
3:10
Speaker 1: Cleveland Guardians eliminated. The Padres were eliminated from the playoffs
3:14
Speaker 1: as the Tigers advanced. The Tigers will take on the Mariners.
3:20
Speaker 1: In the other half of the American League bracket, the
3:22
Speaker 1: Yankees will take on Toronto. So we got that National
3:26
Speaker 1: League side. Dodgers advanced. The other day they take on
3:28
Speaker 1: the Reds, and you've got the Chicago called that's a
3:32
Speaker 1: pretty good rivalry. Cubs and Brewers and the people at
3:36
Speaker 1: the Cheese Castle and Kenosha are gonna be doing very
3:39
Speaker 1: good business. There is the cub fans drive up there
3:41
Speaker 1: for the Brewers and the Cubs in that rivalry series
3:45
Speaker 1: will kick off this weekend as well. And we had
3:47
Speaker 1: a Thursday night NFL game. Oh what a game it was.
3:51
Speaker 1: The Rams decided not to show up in the first
3:52
Speaker 1: half and blew the game Towys. They could have played
3:56
Speaker 1: for a tie and overtime. The game went to overtime.
3:58
Speaker 1: They had the game almost won in red. They had
4:00
Speaker 1: a fumble with a little over a minute to go,
4:02
Speaker 1: Kyron Williams fumbling the ball. The Rams have lost two
4:06
Speaker 1: games this year because of one because of their idiot
4:08
Speaker 1: kicker and special teams, the other because their idiot running back.
4:11
Speaker 1: And then Sean McVay in overtime on a fourth down
4:15
Speaker 1: and one, rather than kick a field goal and try
4:17
Speaker 1: to tie the game, he went for it with a
4:19
Speaker 1: little over three minutes to go, didn't get the down
4:22
Speaker 1: to gain. The Niners backups of backups made the play
4:26
Speaker 1: and so the Rams go down. Niners win that game
4:30
Speaker 1: and Mac Jones Patriot trash. Mac Jones looked like he
4:34
Speaker 1: was back in Tuscaloosa as he lit up what was
4:37
Speaker 1: supposed to be a good Rams defense. He raised Holy
4:39
Speaker 1: hell for the forty nine ers in the first half
4:41
Speaker 1: of that game. Anyway, number that big news, big news
4:45
Speaker 1: out of Nevada. If you have not heard, probably not
4:50
Speaker 1: John Gruden. Who's he's a barstool bro now I think, yeah, yeah,
4:56
Speaker 1: John Grud's lawsuit against the NFL moving a lit a
5:00
Speaker 1: little bit closer to trial, inch by inch. The Nevada
5:05
Speaker 1: Supreme Court, the Nevada Supreme Court, I think they decide
5:08
Speaker 1: things via slot machine. The Nevada Supreme Court unanimously denied
5:13
Speaker 1: the National Football League's petition to rehear a recent decision.
5:18
Speaker 1: Now this is but who cares, it's just a formal thing. Well,
5:21
Speaker 1: it's a big deal. And John Gruden's attorneys said were
5:25
Speaker 1: obviously pleased with the decision in a prepared stand But
5:28
Speaker 1: the NFL has the ability to appeal. However, here's where
5:32
Speaker 1: they have to go. They have to go to the
5:33
Speaker 1: Supreme Court. The Supreme Court would have to vote on
5:38
Speaker 1: John Gruden's lawsuit against the NFL. And if you do
5:43
Speaker 1: the matathod this, the NFL does not you know, they
5:46
Speaker 1: know people, but the Supreme Court doesn't generally take too
5:50
Speaker 1: many cases anyway, and so the NFL has declined to comment.
5:54
Speaker 1: Now Gruden, this is all about him when he's coaching
5:56
Speaker 1: the Raiders. Back in twenty twenty one, there was the
6:00
Speaker 1: cherry picked emails sent from years earlier, which included all
6:06
Speaker 1: the Big three, racist, misogynistic, homophobic language that Gruden had
6:11
Speaker 1: sent out in email correspondence when he was not an
6:14
Speaker 1: NFL employee. A month later, after this all went down,
6:18
Speaker 1: he sued the NFL and the despotic commissioner Roger Goodell,
6:22
Speaker 1: alleging a malicious and orchestrated campaign via his lawyer who
6:27
Speaker 1: wrote that language. Because I'm pretty sure Gruden does not
6:30
Speaker 1: use the word malicious or orchestrated. And about the leaked emails,
6:34
Speaker 1: so let us discuss the question for the esteem panel.
6:38
Speaker 1: How concerned? How concerned is Roger Goodell and the NFL
6:44
Speaker 1: over John Gruden's victory in the Nevada Supreme Court. So
6:49
Speaker 1: I've got my take on this. I've got Jerry V. Lewis,
6:52
Speaker 1: social media influencers, and Rolex and we will combine all
6:58
Speaker 1: of these things together try to avoid an unmitigated disaster
7:02
Speaker 1: and all the tongue twisters in the world because we're
7:04
Speaker 1: gonna make some gotta goul We're gonna make the gotta
7:07
Speaker 1: gool not to kick off the NFL right now. The
7:11
Speaker 1: NFL right now, behind closed doors is sweating like they
7:15
Speaker 1: accidentally summoned a demon when they were ordering door Dash.
7:20
Speaker 1: They pressed the wrong thing on the app and instead
7:22
Speaker 1: of getting a burger, they got a demon. Two losses
7:26
Speaker 1: in a row in Nevada, And when's the last time
7:29
Speaker 1: the Raiders won two games in a row. It's been
7:31
Speaker 1: a while, but the John Gruden two wins in a
7:33
Speaker 1: row there, the winning streak is alive and well. And
7:36
Speaker 1: you gotta think of this like Johnsonville Sausage. I think
7:41
Speaker 1: it was like Johnsonville saus like the factory at Johnsonville Sausage.
7:45
Speaker 1: Behind the scenes, Roger Goodell calling his country club buddies,
7:49
Speaker 1: the guys he hangs out with on Long Island right
7:53
Speaker 1: in his place up there in Maine, the really aristocratic
7:56
Speaker 1: people that have extra homes and whatnot. And so Goodell's
8:00
Speaker 1: calling up his country club buddies and he's like saying, hey, ring, Ring,
8:04
Speaker 1: this is Roger Goodell. Yeah, Roger, what's going on. Yeah,
8:06
Speaker 1: I'm the commission of the National Football like, I know
8:07
Speaker 1: who you are, Roger. I know you're the commission of
8:09
Speaker 1: National Football League. Uh. And I was like, listen, we've
8:11
Speaker 1: got this little problem. We can't really go public, right,
8:14
Speaker 1: We can't go public with this. You know, people might
8:16
Speaker 1: actually see how the sausage is made. So we need
8:20
Speaker 1: some help because the NFL does not want sunlight. They
8:24
Speaker 1: do not want sunlight. They want smoke. They want a
8:28
Speaker 1: smoke filled back room. They want the kangaroo court. They
8:31
Speaker 1: want Roger Goodell judge, jury executioner. That is how it's
8:35
Speaker 1: always been. It has always been that way. You've got
8:39
Speaker 1: the rigged arbitration system where the same guy who fired
8:43
Speaker 1: you is also the one deciding your fate. Seems fair,
8:46
Speaker 1: That's most of us would say. That's not justice. That's
8:49
Speaker 1: a Soviet Union type operation there. But for now, the
8:54
Speaker 1: Nevada Supreme Court told Roger Goodell to go pound sand
8:58
Speaker 1: and just take a hike your little minions. You know,
9:01
Speaker 1: your lawyers on retainer. So that is not just one,
9:04
Speaker 1: but two. Body blows, body blows, body blows, and it's
9:08
Speaker 1: got to be nerve racking. Got to be nerve racking
9:11
Speaker 1: for the folks over there on Park Avenue. This is
9:13
Speaker 1: the NFL's worst nightmare. The D word, discovery, capital d discovery,
9:19
Speaker 1: Lawyers digging through emails, depositions, text messages, real answers, real
9:26
Speaker 1: answers to figure out who exactly put the hit on
9:29
Speaker 1: John Gruden? Who ordered the shiv on John Gruden? In
9:33
Speaker 1: broad daylight as Brent Musburger, the iconic Hall of Fame
9:39
Speaker 1: voice Brent Musburger, who was the voice of the Raiders
9:42
Speaker 1: at the time, and he talked about John Gruden his
9:45
Speaker 1: removal as coach of the Raiders, and he said it
9:48
Speaker 1: was a professional hit job by a paid assassin. That
9:53
Speaker 1: the NFL did not use their usual media gumbas. That
9:56
Speaker 1: is what he said back in the day. It seems sactly.
10:00
Speaker 1: Now you debate, well, who did it, why did they
10:03
Speaker 1: do it? Well, I think we know why they did it.
10:05
Speaker 1: But this is code red stuff for the NFL. You
10:08
Speaker 1: cannot handle the truth. That's the movie they're living in
10:12
Speaker 1: right now. Right So the NFL will appeal to the
10:15
Speaker 1: United States Supreme Court, but the odds of them taking
10:18
Speaker 1: the case are not particularly good. They're actually slimmer than
10:22
Speaker 1: the Raiders winning the AFC West with Gino Smith at
10:24
Speaker 1: quarterback as our friend Manuel from Guardina knows you need
10:29
Speaker 1: not one, not two, not three, but four. And this
10:33
Speaker 1: is I understand. I'm not a believe it or not,
10:35
Speaker 1: I'm not a Supreme Court expert, but as I understand it,
10:38
Speaker 1: you need four justices to even grant a hearing. So
10:41
Speaker 1: you need four of the justices. You then need five
10:44
Speaker 1: in order to win, five of the nine in order
10:46
Speaker 1: to win. So it's not easy even for a behemoth
10:50
Speaker 1: like the NFL. And this could blow the whole thing
10:54
Speaker 1: wide open. And I have a big bucket of popcorn.
10:58
Speaker 1: You can't see it because it's off to the side,
11:01
Speaker 1: but I got a big bucket of popcorn, and I'm
11:05
Speaker 1: like movie theater popcorn, like really bad, just kind of
11:08
Speaker 1: fills your arteries up and all that show please yeah, yeah,
11:11
Speaker 1: yeah yeah. And so you got you got emails, as
11:15
Speaker 1: I said, the cover up, You've got the Washington investigation,
11:19
Speaker 1: and we might actually know who ordered the hit job
11:23
Speaker 1: and pushed John Gruden out, and it's Jerry Lee Lewis.
11:27
Speaker 1: Great balls of fire. John Gruden's got the NFL by
11:31
Speaker 1: the balls. He does right, He's got them in a
11:34
Speaker 1: choke hold, and the clock is ticking. In fact, you
11:38
Speaker 1: can almost hear it. If you turn up the volume,
11:41
Speaker 1: you can almost I almost hear it. Yeah, exactly, every
11:46
Speaker 1: motion the NFL loses everyone is like another beat of
11:50
Speaker 1: sweat rolling down Roger Goodell's forehead, and we are inching
11:55
Speaker 1: closer to the NFL's dirty laundry get dragged out and
12:01
Speaker 1: being put on a clothes line right in the middle
12:03
Speaker 1: of the town square for everyone to see. Sounds good it,
12:07
Speaker 1: all right? Furthermore, do Cansah city we go where Patrick Mahomes.
12:13
Speaker 1: Mahomey said recently that he does not understand the hullabaloo or,
12:19
Speaker 1: as he said, the fuss about the Jaguars recent signs
12:23
Speaker 1: stealing saga. Mahomes claim, given the fact the Chiefs changed
12:27
Speaker 1: their signals every single week, they're the smartest guys in
12:32
Speaker 1: the room. He also said, as we understand it that
12:35
Speaker 1: they know the game is on TV and that other
12:38
Speaker 1: teams try to get a beat on what they're trying
12:41
Speaker 1: to do. All right, close quote question your thoughts on
12:46
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes brushing off the Jags signs stealing scandal. All right,
12:53
Speaker 1: So the first thought rather was like, no kidding, right,
12:57
Speaker 1: that's football teams have been breaking looking down hand signals
13:01
Speaker 1: and snap counts since Dan Marino was a young pup.
13:05
Speaker 1: This isn't espionage, it is not. It is called preparation.
13:08
Speaker 1: That is what it's called preparation. It's what every good
13:12
Speaker 1: coaching staff does. You self scout, you scout the opponent.
13:15
Speaker 1: You put it all together, You mix and match, you
13:17
Speaker 1: put a ven diagram together. You pick up the little twitches,
13:20
Speaker 1: the collaps, the mannerisms, the check with me's all that stuff.
13:25
Speaker 1: And if you don't, you're a bum. You're bum. You're
13:29
Speaker 1: leaving free information on the table. You never leave free
13:32
Speaker 1: information on the table. You don't do it. The thing
13:35
Speaker 1: that has changed social media influencers know, this is really
13:41
Speaker 1: good clickbait, really good. The algorithms like it, the bots
13:45
Speaker 1: like it. It's really sexy clickbait. And so we have to
13:49
Speaker 1: turn this into a federal case. We just have to,
13:53
Speaker 1: like the Lower Court of Manhattan has to be involved,
13:55
Speaker 1: because now there are nerds running football, the analytical mafia, right,
14:00
Speaker 1: all the all twenty two podcasters, the smartest guys in
14:04
Speaker 1: the room, the hardos that are impossible to listen to today.
14:08
Speaker 1: Suddenly they discover these nimrods that hey, teams watch TV,
14:13
Speaker 1: they copy, they pick up signals. It's not right. Really.
14:19
Speaker 1: See this is the This is as old as Vince
14:21
Speaker 1: Lombardi's Fedorra back in the day. As long again, maybe clear,
14:26
Speaker 1: as long as you don't go full asstros the Houston
14:31
Speaker 1: ass one one thousand two, one thousand holes with the buzzers,
14:36
Speaker 1: the trash cans, the whistles. You know, some guy in
14:40
Speaker 1: the whistle with the whistle, Hey up, check him for
14:43
Speaker 1: the buzzer. Albouve, you're fine. Baseball crossed the line with
14:49
Speaker 1: that circus fraud, that rob Man fraud. The commissioner allowed
14:53
Speaker 1: to go unpunished. Nobody got punished. We did get a
14:56
Speaker 1: cheating astro eliminated in and Bregman and the Red Sox
15:02
Speaker 1: he's out. We've got two cheating a holes left of prominence.
15:06
Speaker 1: George cheating Springer, the MVP of the Crooked World Series
15:10
Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen with Toronto. So we got to get
15:13
Speaker 1: Toronto out. And you also have on the in the
15:17
Speaker 1: Detroit dugout. You've got the manager of the cheating a
15:20
Speaker 1: holes who was so pompous and arrogant, aj Hinch that
15:24
Speaker 1: while it was going on, while they were cheating, he
15:26
Speaker 1: just dismissed the idea that they were cheating, and we
15:30
Speaker 1: played that audio and it was so good in hindsight,
15:33
Speaker 1: knowing what we know and knowing what we thought we knew,
15:37
Speaker 1: man was that good. But again, we're talking football here,
15:40
Speaker 1: and don't cross the streams. It's still the honor among
15:44
Speaker 1: thieves in football. Steal what you can, just don't bring props.
15:49
Speaker 1: Don't bring the props into it and all that. All right,
15:51
Speaker 1: last thing, the flug is up, so we have learned.
15:55
Speaker 1: Now go back to the commissioner. Roger Goodell has confirmed
16:00
Speaker 1: that the NFL is is spending money to launch a
16:06
Speaker 1: new professional startup football league, professional flag flag flag Football,
16:18
Speaker 1: that's going to start in the next couple of years. Question,
16:20
Speaker 1: what are the odds? What are the odds the NFL
16:24
Speaker 1: finds a market for professional flag football flag flag football.
16:32
Speaker 1: So I've looked at it. The malarodds on this are
16:34
Speaker 1: slim and none and slim. Just left town on an
16:38
Speaker 1: Amtrak train and I don't know where that train is headed.
16:42
Speaker 1: It's just headed out of Dodge, going off to timbuckto somewhere.
16:46
Speaker 1: That's where it's going. So I sent some messages out
16:49
Speaker 1: to some people. I know that work in that world
16:50
Speaker 1: that actually take checks from the NFL. And the response
16:55
Speaker 1: I got was that this is all being planned in
16:58
Speaker 1: correspondence with the Olympics coming to Los Angeles in twenty
17:02
Speaker 1: twenty eight, I believe, the summer of twenty twenty eight.
17:05
Speaker 1: So it's gonna be hear before you know I mean,
17:07
Speaker 1: the heck, twenty twenty five is gonna be over before
17:09
Speaker 1: you know it. Halloween's right around the corner, then Thanksgiving, Christmas,
17:13
Speaker 1: and then that's all she wrote. But anyway, so in
17:15
Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight, the Olympics, you're gonna have flag football,
17:17
Speaker 1: and the NFL owners are thinking, Okay, this will be popular,
17:21
Speaker 1: and we're gonna piggyback off that. We're gonna start this
17:24
Speaker 1: little startup fugeesy flag Football League and it'll be great. Now,
17:30
Speaker 1: without knowing much about it, just the idea is that
17:34
Speaker 1: in my head, this is going to be nothing more
17:35
Speaker 1: than a cheap knockoff. It'll be like going to the
17:40
Speaker 1: old Times Square in New York and some guys there, Hey,
17:45
Speaker 1: I got some watches you want to watch, and watch, watch, watch.
17:48
Speaker 1: I'll take a watch, all right, So you buy a
17:49
Speaker 1: Rolex from a guy's trunk in Times Square and it
17:54
Speaker 1: looks pretty good. They're like, oh, man, I scored. This
17:56
Speaker 1: might be stolen, but it's good. But the second you
17:58
Speaker 1: wear it, the thing falls apart. Right, this is the
18:02
Speaker 1: owner's dream scenario that you strip the sport down, you
18:06
Speaker 1: eliminate the helmets, you cut down on the lawsuits. Boom
18:11
Speaker 1: goes to dynamite. How great would that be? You've reduced
18:15
Speaker 1: what they call downstream liability that the players of today,
18:20
Speaker 1: A certain percentage of NFL players today will have their
18:23
Speaker 1: brains like scrambled eggs with cheese in thirty years and
18:28
Speaker 1: a percentage of those players will then sue the NFL.
18:32
Speaker 1: And they said, well they can't sue the NFL. Well,
18:33
Speaker 1: it's happened for it will happen again, and so that's
18:36
Speaker 1: downstream liability. You don't need in flag football linemen, so
18:42
Speaker 1: no need for that. You don't need to tackle because
18:45
Speaker 1: it's a flag. You don't even need testosterone. Right, you
18:49
Speaker 1: can sell that. It's inclusive. You can have women playing
18:52
Speaker 1: flag football and the NFL flag football they can play.
18:57
Speaker 1: I imagine what this will be is a lot of
18:59
Speaker 1: wash stop has bins. It'll be the senior PGA Tour
19:04
Speaker 1: meets Beer League Softball that you know they're gonna market
19:08
Speaker 1: it like, hey, come out and see NFL legends playing
19:11
Speaker 1: flag football. You can watch Peyton Manning take on Drew
19:14
Speaker 1: Brees one more time, you know, that kind of thing.
19:17
Speaker 1: It's kind of like how they marketed pickleball when that started,
19:21
Speaker 1: right they brought a bunch of tennis players in to
19:22
Speaker 1: try to get people all horny for pickleball. You know,
19:26
Speaker 1: nobody really is into it. It was a fly by
19:30
Speaker 1: night thing. But but anyway, listen until reality sets it.
19:34
Speaker 1: You're not gonna get Peyton Manning versus Drew Brees playing
19:37
Speaker 1: flag football. You're going to get, at best, you'll get
19:40
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick, the Amish rifle throwing five yard dump off passes,
19:45
Speaker 1: and he'll be going against Mark Bulger and the old
19:49
Speaker 1: Ram quarterback who was last seen in the Witness Protection
19:53
Speaker 1: program about ten years ago. Yeah but yeah, but yeah,
19:55
Speaker 1: but yeah it that's Mike March. Yeah but yeah but
19:57
Speaker 1: it yeah but yeah but and the NFL will try
19:59
Speaker 1: to sell it as fast paced fun and the future
20:02
Speaker 1: of football. And just like the XFL, the USFL, the
20:06
Speaker 1: AAF and a bunch of other leagues that I don't
20:08
Speaker 1: even remember, and all those things, all of these things
20:12
Speaker 1: end up in the same pigskin, junk yard gimmick football
20:17
Speaker 1: and the real kicker though that this is the wet
20:20
Speaker 1: dream of the NFL. This is the end game. They
20:23
Speaker 1: want this, they need this, and if they time it right,
20:26
Speaker 1: if it does become popular in the Olympics, and they
20:30
Speaker 1: time it right, the owners would love to transition. It's
20:33
Speaker 1: been all the rage to the want to transition the
20:36
Speaker 1: public into accepting flag football and make that become a
20:41
Speaker 1: moneymaker the norm, because again, it's got three things going forward.
20:44
Speaker 1: It's cheaper, it's easier, and it's safer, all right. Cheaper, easier, safer,
20:49
Speaker 1: No more pads, no more high priced lawsuits, no more
20:51
Speaker 1: guys getting turned into chop meat in the trenches and
20:54
Speaker 1: all that stuff. And it's kind of like getting fans
20:57
Speaker 1: hooked on diet coke after years of regular coke. You
21:01
Speaker 1: shave off all the sugar and most of the calories
21:05
Speaker 1: and all that. It's in all the flavor. It's football
21:09
Speaker 1: without the football. It's like opening a steakhouse and going
21:13
Speaker 1: down and bid like a really big porterhouse steak. Can
21:16
Speaker 1: I get this? Sure, we get you at Porterhouse Steak,
21:17
Speaker 1: and then they serve the Porterhouse steak and they put this,
21:20
Speaker 1: they put the A one steak sauce right there, and
21:22
Speaker 1: then you cut into it and you're like, well, that's
21:24
Speaker 1: not that's tofu, that's not a steak. But well yeah,
21:27
Speaker 1: but it's a steakhouse. So if it's a steakhouse, it's
21:29
Speaker 1: a steak. It's the Ben Mahler Show. If you'd like

Speaker 1: against the wall till it starts bleeding. In the meantime,
26:26
Speaker 1: I'll say, yeah, there you go. Hey, we got a
26:31
Speaker 1: new toy for those of you that just tune in
26:33
Speaker 1: the last hour. Sean McVeigh gave us what we love
26:37
Speaker 1: is an evergreen drop. We love evergreen drops. That means
26:41
Speaker 1: we can use it out of context. It's a toy. Now.
26:44
Speaker 1: If you remember the old days when Dave Roberts, the
26:46
Speaker 1: Dodgers manager, would bring in some stiff to pitch and
26:51
Speaker 1: the guy would get lit up and he'd say I
26:53
Speaker 1: really liked him in that spot. Well, we anytime out
26:56
Speaker 1: of context, we'd use that drop. I really liked him
27:00
Speaker 1: that spot. The former former famous hockey coach John Tortorella.
27:06
Speaker 1: We sucked at a time we couldn't. You know, can't suck.
27:08
Speaker 1: That's a great evergreen job. But now we have Sean
27:11
Speaker 1: McVeagh who decided in his wisdom in a game the
27:15
Speaker 1: Rams were trailing by three points in a an overtime.
27:19
Speaker 1: If the Rams don't score, the game ends. He decided
27:22
Speaker 1: to go for it on fourth and one deep in
27:23
Speaker 1: Niners territory, in makeable field goal range, and then he
27:27
Speaker 1: gave us this pearl of wisdom. It's a bad call.
27:29
Speaker 1: It's a bad call by me, so perfect. That is
27:33
Speaker 1: so good. We're gonna have fun with that.
27:35
Speaker 4: I'm gonna play that every time you have a bad
27:36
Speaker 4: caller on the air.
27:38
Speaker 1: Not only bad callers, but we can mock the coaches
27:41
Speaker 1: and the people in sports. Yeah, yeah, have a have
27:45
Speaker 1: a good time. And we got to get that Dave
27:46
Speaker 1: Roberts one ready to go because he's gonna f up
27:48
Speaker 1: this series with the Philly So we got to get
27:49
Speaker 1: that ready to go when Roberts screws things up there
27:52
Speaker 1: Tilio is up next. Hello, Tillio. Welcome in the sunshine stick.
27:57
Speaker 6: How you doing, Ben?
27:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm good. I'm If I was any better, i'd
28:01
Speaker 1: be gool, but not gabba ghoul because I'd be in
28:03
Speaker 1: your stomach. You know.
28:04
Speaker 6: Hey, listen, I gotta hope the Yankees go deep in
28:07
Speaker 6: the playoffs because the Giants won't be good for another
28:09
Speaker 6: probably another five years now went through offensive line.
28:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, not five years. If Jackson Dark can play, and
28:18
Speaker 1: I'm not convinced after one game you can lock together,
28:23
Speaker 1: you can slap together an offensive line.
28:26
Speaker 6: The main reason I called is I wanted to the
28:28
Speaker 6: first time I visited your state forty seven years ago
28:32
Speaker 6: with my beautiful Bribe on our honeymoon. We flew into
28:35
Speaker 6: San Francisco, drove down to California and it was really nice.
28:40
Speaker 6: And it was nineteen seventy eight. That was the seventy
28:44
Speaker 6: eight Do you remember seventy eight, bet or you're too
28:45
Speaker 6: young when the Yankees spent your voice.
28:48
Speaker 1: Two years it was a child. I don't really remember,
28:53
Speaker 1: but there's photographic evidence that I did exist, so that
28:58
Speaker 1: I was in the world.
29:00
Speaker 6: Let's let's have some fun, play a little game, because
29:02
Speaker 6: they have to California. We spent the week in Florida,
29:07
Speaker 6: and I surprised my my wife with two nights day

30:21
Speaker 1: Nineteen seventy eight ten bucks, ten bucks.
30:25
Speaker 5: I'm going to go with five dollars, but you could

Speaker 5: Yes, all right, we're gonna start off in the theaters.
31:11
Speaker 5: There's a couple of movies worth mentioning this weekend. The
31:14
Speaker 5: first one is The Smashing Machine that stars Dwayne the
31:20
Speaker 5: Rock Johnson in his first ever like super serious role.
31:24
Speaker 5: It is the story of mixed martial artists and UFC
31:27
Speaker 5: champion Mark Kerr.
31:29
Speaker 1: See off the sauce. I saw photos of him. He
31:31
Speaker 1: looks skinny.
31:32
Speaker 4: That's what I've heard. Okay, I don't know.
31:36
Speaker 5: People people are saying that he's no longer using and
31:38
Speaker 5: that's why he's that small. He's saying that he's doing
31:42
Speaker 5: it for a role.
31:44
Speaker 1: I don't know. Okay, Well, he's definitely thinner. Yeah. Yeah.
31:51
Speaker 5: Another movie out in theaters this weekend. It is a
31:54
Speaker 5: horror movie. I've already seen it. I saw a special
31:57
Speaker 5: sneak preview. It's called good Boy, and it is a horror.
32:00
Speaker 1: Movie that would be a horror movie, a good Boy horu.
32:05
Speaker 5: It was a it's a horror movie from the perspective
32:09
Speaker 5: of a dog. So it's only it's only like an
32:14
Speaker 5: hour and twelve minutes long.
32:17
Speaker 1: But charging discount price, that's not very long.
32:20
Speaker 4: No, it's not. But I mean there's only so much
32:22
Speaker 4: you can get the dog to do.
32:23
Speaker 5: I watch it, and I will say there was times
32:26
Speaker 5: where I was like, Okay, this is a it's a
32:28
Speaker 5: little repetitive because you know, there's only so many like looks.
32:32
Speaker 4: That the dog can do.
32:34
Speaker 5: Uh, But overall I was I was impressed with the
32:37
Speaker 5: dogs acting. It's a the dog's named is Indie, and.
32:42
Speaker 1: Does the dog know it's acting?
32:44
Speaker 4: No?
32:45
Speaker 5: No, I read about this afterwards, and it's the director's dog,
32:49
Speaker 5: and there's like, you know, there's shots where the dog
32:51
Speaker 5: is sleeping and then gets woken up by you know,
32:53
Speaker 5: like a sound in the house. And apparently they just
32:56
Speaker 5: they've filmed on a close set and they waited around
32:59
Speaker 5: for the dog to actually like fall asleep so that
33:01
Speaker 5: they would get like natural.
33:03
Speaker 4: I know, I know, it's crazy.
33:05
Speaker 1: Imagine how much the people hated that who were working
33:08
Speaker 1: on that.
33:10
Speaker 4: I'm sure, I'm sure.
33:11
Speaker 5: But that being said, there were a few good jump
33:13
Speaker 5: scares and you know, a nice, nice little tie up
33:18
Speaker 5: at the end, so I think it's worth checking out.
33:20
Speaker 1: But well, my dog Moxie coop, the whole house could
33:24
Speaker 1: burd dow and the Moxie wouldn't move, you know.
33:25
Speaker 5: Just yeah, for sure, for sure. So that is good boy.
33:29
Speaker 5: That is in theaters right now. And then moving over
33:32
Speaker 5: to television, we have a couple of things. The first
33:34
Speaker 5: one is a movie called The Lost Bus. This is

Speaker 5: a limited release in theaters, but it is an Apple

Speaker 5: Apple TV Plus right now. It is based on a
33:46
Speaker 5: true story look at Northern California's deadly campfire back in

33:52
Speaker 5: played by Matthew McConaughey, who teams up with a teacher,
33:55
