  Speaker 1: Hope all is fantastic. We'll get to ball. Ball always
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: going to be on the menu as football season is
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: right around the corner. And also, believe it or not, golf.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Golf is in the news. You're like, golf? What? Where's
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Big Ben tonight? No, actually, a pretty interesting story I'll
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: get to in just a minute. Hey, if you work

• 0:45
  Speaker 1: show tonight, and I was at the Braves game, saw
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Chris Sale throw a CG shut piece, went shut out,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: no runs, complete game, whole thing, out-dueled Yamamoto. But I
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: was reading a story on the weight of the game,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: and I just clicked on the story, and it's a
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: golf story, and I'm like, all right, Callaway ends their
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: relationship with Good Good Golf. I'm like, I've never heard
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: of Good Good Golf. Why do I care about this story?
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden it got pretty interesting.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: So Good Good Golf produced a video. And in the video,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: there is a guy who shoves a girl to the ground.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: The context is that there's this golf club, right? And
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: they're promoting this golf club. And this golf club is
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: so outstanding. that anyone who touches the club becomes obsessed.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: It's a spoof of the movie Obsession. Okay, that's what
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: they're going for.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Very poorly depicted.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: Horrible.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Like, horrible job, Lorena.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: I actually have a soundbite of the commercial.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: I do too, but I want to hear yours. That's
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: almost like mine.
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: Let's see.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Which one do you like better?
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Do not touch my new driver. Damn, they're both pretty good.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: They're both the exact same thing, Lorena. You know, I
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: don't know.
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: But, yeah, that's it. okay, they're promoting this golf club.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: This golf club is amazing. You become obsessed with the
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: golf club. And that's the whole concept of this video.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: The girl goes to grab the club and this guy
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: shoves her to the ground. Don't touch my golf club. Right.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: And then he's just obsessed with this golf club throughout
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: the rest of the ad. Horrible idea, like poorly executed
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: a disaster. And it's become this whole story. So again, Callaway,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: like I said, they ended their relationship with Good Good Golf. Apparently,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Callaway reposted the original video, and then they take heat
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: for this, and rightfully so. I don't know how many
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: things you could come up with. That are just funny
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: when it comes to domestic violence. Right. There's not too
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: many things we're.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Like, that was actually good.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Actually, you what?
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: I can't think of anything funny when it comes to
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: domestic violence.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's going to be it's going to
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: be a hard thing to sell anytime you go down
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: that road. And they just did a horrible job. It's
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: not even close to being funny. It's a bad Saturday
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Night Live skit is what it is. It's just clunky
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: and executed poorly. It's not even close to being funny.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: But anyway, Callaway reposted this video, and they took heat
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: for it. And the funny thing is their quote made
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: me laugh, where Callaway said, it has made, quote, appropriate
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: internal corrective actions, end quote, right there. which means they
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: fired the bum who was dumb enough to repost that
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: original video.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: That's really what it made it. Who started it? Who
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: edited it? Whose idea was it? How did it get
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: past all those board members?
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, it was good. Good golf came up with
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: it originally. And it was the creators are, I'm going
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: to butcher these names. Oh gosh. It's Garrett Clark. I
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: got that.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: It was like the founder of good, good.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: And then it's Alexa, man, you did your research on this.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: I've already reported on it.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah. It's a Garrett Clark and it's, Dziabowski.
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: Dziabowski.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Mistowski.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: Mistowski.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Something with a ski. Shout out Polish. You know, my
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: mom is a Saradski.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: And she is one of the four female founders of
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: the Female Good Good branch.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: So we got founders and secondary founders and. They went
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: with something that, I don't know, they thought would either
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: get some traction, maybe get a laugh or two, get
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: some eyeballs on it. It certainly did, but this is
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: not the old any publicity is good publicity thing. This
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: is very bad. Callaway ended its relationship with Good Good Golf.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: There's not a whole lot that's good happening here. Now,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: the interesting twist of this whole thing is that one
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: of my buddies from home, he texted me while I
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: was at the Braves game, and he sent me a tweet.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: And so the tweet is referencing an old Snickers ad
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: involving Betty White. OK, so now to jog your memory,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: you remember how Snickers had the whole ad campaign where, you.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Know, not you when you're hungry.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right. Like hungry. Eat a Snickers. So you act
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: like somebody else due to your hunger. And this was
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: the portion of the Betty White Snickers ad that the
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: tweet is talking about. Here's the ad to jog your
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: memory first. Mike, what's your deal, man?
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Oh, come on, man.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: You've been riding me all day. Mike, you're playing like
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Betty White out there.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: That's not what your girlfriend said.
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: Baby.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: It's actually funny. So this tweet, whoever it was posted by,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but my friend sent it to me.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: It just says, So it's okay for Snickers to put
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: out a commercial where an old lady gets smashed running
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: over the middle, but it's not okay for Callaway Golf
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: to put out a commercial where a woman gets pushed.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: What the bleep is going on in our society right now?
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: It's such a horrible comparison. It's not even close.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: I think that is the worst comparison ever.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: It's awful.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: I haven't even heard that comparison.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's, yeah.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: For one, that was a football scrimmage that Betty White
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: was playing and where she got tackled, where this was
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: a girl reaching for a golf club. And it looks
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: like her boyfriend came over and was like, don't.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: Touch my stuff.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Pushed her in the back.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Shoulder checked her to the ground. And the whole vibe,
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: the music behind it. Like, listen again. The music behind
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: this is so dark.
• 6:51
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Do not touch my new driver.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Like that's like a horror movie.
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: It's just weird. It's weird.
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: And you're right.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: That's what I, I don't know who tweeted it originally,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: but I was like, this is a horrible comparison, man.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: It's not even close to the same thing. They're playing football,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: playing football in the first one. And the second one,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: it's literally, you're upset and you just shove someone to
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: the ground. You don't see the, the difference in those two.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: That's crazy. This was the end of the Betty white commercial.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: And I don't know this old actor's name, but he
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: got hit in the commercial as well.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: God hurt.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: You're not you when you're hungry. And it was just funny, right?
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Like you're not, we get the concept and the concept
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: of the golf ad.
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: You're obsessed with this club. That's the context, but it's like,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: it's still dumb. like context is supposed to kind of
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: like clear things up for you. You know, if I,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: if I make a statement and it sounds like totally
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: out of place, you're like, well, the context is this.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: You're like, oh, okay. I get it. It's not that bad.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: The context for this golf ad, it makes the ad
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: even dumber. If you just watch the ad, my reaction
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: is like, that's really poorly done. And then if you're like, no, no, no, well,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: it's this golf club and you're obsessed with it. And
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: that's why it's like, well, that's even dumber. It doesn't
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: make any sense whatsoever. So anyway, some people are, you know,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: it's just weird how things unfold these days where you
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: get this, where you will get like the pearl clutching,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: if you will, where there are some people that they're
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: so offended and they take it so far. that the
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: other side is like, okay, that's a bit much. And
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: then that turns into, it's not that bad. And it's like, no,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: it is. It is that bad. It's a horrible idea.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: It's poorly executed. I just think that your opinions shouldn't
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: become reactions. And I think that's what's happening. That's get
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: too deep with this whole philosophical thing. But I think
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: a lot of people's opinions are more reactionary than anything.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: You hear an opinion that you disagree with, and now
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: your opinion is so much stronger and way over the
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: top and way different than what it originally was. I
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: just feel that's strange these days, but it's just a
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: dumb ad. It was not very well done.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Poorly done.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Poorly done.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Don't abuse women.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, or make light of it. There's really not a
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: whole lot to make light of right there. Really, that's
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: the thing for anyone who's like, oh, gosh, all right,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: here we go with overreaction city. No, like really put
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: your put yourself in the shoes of someone that was
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: actually abused in a real situation and maybe repeatedly or
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: maybe it was just one time and it. So, Brian,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: that's actually how I found the story. I was on
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: threads and I didn't even know what it was about.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: It just said the first thing I saw was.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Callaway has been taken off of Costco shelves. And I'm like, right.
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: And then I saw a girl who was like, as
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: a woman whose husband beat her with his golf clubs,
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: this commercial was absolutely horrible. And I was like, what
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: are you talking about? So I had to go look
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: it up.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Think about how triggering that would be. I mean,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: it's just funny. We got to be reasonable in this
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: day and age, you know. And you'll hear these buzzwords
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: and there are people are just going to roll their
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: eyes like triggering, you know, sensitive. It's like, bro, put
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: yourself in that position. All right. You got abused by
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: someone with a golf club. And now you're going to
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: watch this ad kind of making light of that whole
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: concept of Are you supposed to laugh at that? You're
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: not going to look at that and be like, is
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: this what we're really doing right now? Are you kidding
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: me right now? Do you realize what that's like, what
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: you go through? You just got to be smarter, man.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: And good, good. That was bad, bad. That was not
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: even close.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, their stocks are going to see it too.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was not well executed. Something that Coop told
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: me about off air kind of goes hand in hand
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: with this. Drewski, who I think is very funny. he
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: made a video and he's taking heat for this coop
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: about making fun of CTE. So the concept is he's
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: a football player and he gets hit hard and you know,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: he's cross-eyed and then all of a sudden he's driving
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: on the highway and it's like a high speed chase
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: and he's yelling CTE. It's just dumb. It's just, I
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: love Drew ski. I think he's funny. I think it
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: is a lot of things that are really, really funny.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: This is not one of them. Uh, I don't think
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: this was very good at all. Coop. What do you
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: think about it? Do you think that, you know, there
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: might be a part in it where you're like, that's
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: kind of funny. But the overall concept, what do you think?
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Thumbs up, thumbs down on that thing from Drewski.
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: I mean, look, it's it's not I saw a tweet
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: from somebody. I can't remember who it was. I think
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: it was I think it was an athlete. Oh, I
• 12:22
  Speaker 6: think it was a T.J.
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: Ward, actually. Former Denver Bronco T.J. Ward.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's the guy who hurt Gronk, remember? He went low.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: He was with the Browns and went low and hit
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Gronk and jacked up his knee. Very hard hitter.
• 12:34
  Speaker 6: Yeah. And he said something that I thought was, and
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: I thought about it, and I was like, oh, that's
• 12:37
  Speaker 6: kind of true. He's like, you know, why is CTE
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: the only, like, disease that's okay to make fun of? Like,
• 12:44
  Speaker 6: would you be doing this sketch about cancer or HIV?
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, great point. Yeah. Great point by T.J.
• 12:51
  Speaker 7: Ward.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: I like that point. Yeah, it's, Like, dudes are killing
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: themselves who are suffering from CTE. You know what I mean? Like,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: that's a tough one to make fun of and for
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: it to be like, ha-ha, good one, Drewski. You know, like,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know, man. That's a tough one for me
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: as well where, I don't know. I just didn't think
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: very much of that one either.
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: So, I don't know.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: It's funny because there are some comedians, they will take
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: some sensitive subjects– And they'll, they'll say something that's just
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: flat out hilarious. And so I understand there are going
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: to be some swings and misses. There are going to
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: be some things that land. There are going to be
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: some things that miss the mark entirely. And, uh, I
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: thought Drew ski missed the mark. I thought good, good
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: golf for sure. Missed the mark in a big way,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: but that's just my two cents. And I know that
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: story might be just completely off the radar for you. Um,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: But I did as good a job as I could.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: I'm sure someone hearing this for the first time is like, wait,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: what's going on here? I think you at least get
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: the gist of the commercial. It's a tough subject to
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: just jump into and think that people are going to
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: take it well. I remember, and this isn't just because
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I think the standards have gotten better. And with standards
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: getting better, there's going to be– there are going to
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: be comments that you think are going way too far,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: but I don't think that should sway you from a,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: a reasonable position. If you hear someone like way over
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: the top, I don't think your original position should be swayed.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: If your original position is like, that's a bad idea.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: And then you hear someone saying good, good golf. They should,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: their company should be null and void from this point on.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: And you hear over the top things and you're like, Okay, fine,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: but I don't think you should sway from your original
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: point of view. I think that happens quite a bit.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: There's one thing, and I'll take a call real quick.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: There's one thing that came to mind, and I can't
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: remember what NBA teams. I tried to search for it.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: I could not find it. I want to say it
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: was the Cleveland Cavaliers. But you know how they have
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: the Jumbotron stuff, and they have entertainment throughout these games. Baseball, football, basketball,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: what have you. Constant entertainment during timeouts. you know, in innings,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: in inning ended, whatever. There's always entertainment. I saw Mr.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Freeze at the Braves game. That's a good one. You know,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: racing in the outfield. But they had some, I believe
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: it was Cleveland Cavaliers. I apologize if that's wrong, but
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: it was something along those lines. It was supposed to
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: be a joke, but it was about domestic violence. And
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: I can't remember the context exactly, but it was something
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: to do with, there was this couple, they were talking and,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: And the girl, I don't know, like reached for his
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: jersey or something like that. And then the camera switched
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: and she had a black eye. And everyone was just like,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: that's a horrible idea. And that was years ago. I
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: don't know when it was. I think it was the Cavs.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: It could have been somebody else. But it didn't land,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: you know, not shockingly didn't land then either. So we
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: got Mark on the north end. He's got a comment
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: on this golf commercial. I'm curious what he thinks. What's
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: going on, Mark? You're on Fox Sports Radio.
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: Hey, what's happening, guys?
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Hey, bud.
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: So I agreed that the commercial was tasteless, but I
• 16:30
  Speaker 5: was hoping somebody on sports radio brought this up. What
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: if it was the other way around? What if, like,
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: it was a commercial for, I don't know, Lady Schick,
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: and the guy was in the shower, and he was
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: using her razor blade? And she saw him, ripped the
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: shower curtain open, threw him to the ground and said,
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: don't touch my razor blade. Would that be funny?
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: No.
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: Just ask him.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: No, it wouldn't be funny.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: A random commercial idea.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's going to land differently.
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: It would definitely land differently, and you would have to admit,
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: women would crack up laughing if they saw that commercial.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I mean, I don't know, maybe some would,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: but you got to understand the context, Mark. Like, it's
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: not the same thing.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the power dynamic there is ridiculous.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: Exactly. That's all it is. It's the power dynamic. It's
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: not like women far and wide are misusing their power
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: and abusing guys physically. Like, that's not a thing. So
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: that's why it would be completely different.
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: Actually, in today's world, it actually is a thing. Just
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: men don't report it. Because why? It's embarrassing. But it
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: is a thing.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: It's not a thing on the same scale, Mark. That's
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: the whole point.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: I was one of those guys that I was in
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: an abusive relationship and I wasn't the abuser. Right.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: No, it's definitely, it's not unheard of, but it's also
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: not something to make light of.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: You're right.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: No matter which way you put it, a woman pushing
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: a man or vice versa should not be highlighted. And
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: that's the issue with this commercial.
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: But all I'm saying is I don't think there would
• 18:10
  Speaker 5: be as much controversy if it was the other way around.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Listen, I agree with you, Mark. And look, man, I'm sorry.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: You went through whatever you went through.
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: You know, you know, I take that seriously also, but, um,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: It's not going to be the same thing because, like
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Lorena said, the power dynamic is completely different. It's just
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: a different deal. So, yeah.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: But abuse is wrong on all sides.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: It is. Absolutely it is.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Keep your hands to yourself.
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: Yeah. What's the old TV show where he was always, like,
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: threatening to hit his wife?
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: You don't want to talk? To the moon, Alice!
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: Um.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Wow. To the moon Alice.
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: Do you know what I'm talking about?
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: We're both Googling to the moon Alice. I can feel
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: it right now.
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: Honeymooners.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not familiar with that one. Yeah. To the moon Alice.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, but what year was that, Coop?
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: The 50s. 50s television.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: I have some stats here on domestic abuse as well.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: What do you got?
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: Sorry.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: Do you want me to say them?
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: So one in three women have experienced domestic abuse. One
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: in nine men have experienced domestic abuse.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Including, you know, assault in sexual ways.
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Sure.
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: It happens.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: Women are roughly six times more likely to experience severe
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: injuries and about 74 to 75 percent of domestic violence
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: victims recorded by law enforcement are female. So there's that.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 19:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: Well, hey, man, you know, it's. Anybody misusing their power.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: is is wrong and it's a horrible thing. But the
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: stats that you rolled out there, Lorena, that's why it
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: would land differently. And you would have to understand that context.
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: Even if you're a guy and you're a victim of
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: domestic abuse. Right. You would have to understand that. the
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: reasons why it would land differently.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: And if you are a victim, you should be even
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: more against the commercial.
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Exactly. Whether it's, you know, the way it was or
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: the opposite of what it was in that ad.
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: No doubt.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: All right. 877-99 on Fox is your number. Also on X,
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: we are available. I've been scrolling through the tweets. Some,
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: I was there. Good ones. So I'll get you those
• 20:33

• 20:54
  Speaker 1: I'll get that your way right around the corner. Let's
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: just omit the two in there. We don't need the
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: two O T O right there. And I don't need
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: that right there. We'll omit that. Didn't happen. You know,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: Wipe it away. We'll fix that post. That's right. Didn't
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: even happen. All right. We'll get to entertainment in the
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: NFL coming up. And also, I got to pay off
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: the Schwartz Syndicate. Jeff Schwartz called out by an NFL
• 21:16

  Speaker 1: Andrea is in Berkeley. We always love hearing from Andrea.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: What is going on, Andrea? We are busy on an
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: early Friday morning here. How are things with you?
• 23:01
  Speaker 7: Yes, happy full moon lunar eclipse. Yeah, how about that?
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: I love full moons there, Andrea. You know me.
• 23:12
  Speaker 7: Yes, we're going to get ready to hear you howl.
• 23:14
  Speaker 7: That's your thing on the full moon.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: I was driving. I'm like a crazy person. I was
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: driving just last night to Atlanta and I was howling
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: at the moon. It wasn't even a full moon the
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: night before. I was just, yeah, I was just a
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: crazy person. Like, I can't help it.
• 23:33
  Speaker 7: No, that's perfect. You feel the full moon a day before,
• 23:37
  Speaker 7: the day of, and the day after. So we're definitely
• 23:39
  Speaker 7: in the zone, and it's perfect timing for the Malheur
• 23:43
  Speaker 7: Militia meet and greet, that it's under the full moon.
• 23:46
  Speaker 7: I think Ben and friends will get a kick out
• 23:49
  Speaker 7: of that. I sent him a tweet on X about it.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Have you ever made it out there for one of those, Andrea?
• 23:55
  Speaker 7: No, I haven't, but it's on my Virgo to-do list.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Oh, man, it's got to be on the list.
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it does.
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: How about you?
• 24:03
  Speaker 7: Have you made it out to them?
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: I did when I was invited last year. Apparently my
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: appearance was not satisfactory. They didn't invite me this year
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: in Vegas. I don't know where I went wrong, but
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: somewhere I made a colossal mistake. I was not invited again, Andrea.
• 24:20
  Speaker 7: They'll be happening more and more. So, yeah, you'll be
• 24:23
  Speaker 7: there and we'll be there in spirit for this one.
• 24:27
  Speaker 7: And it was interesting timing. The Giants actually won the
• 24:32
  Speaker 7: game the same time as the full moon lunar eclipse.
• 24:36
  Speaker 7: at 9 18 p.m so that was kind of nice
• 24:40
  Speaker 7: you know timing from the baseball gods and goddesses so
• 24:45
  Speaker 7: really nice to have that um full moon lunar eclipse
• 24:49
  Speaker 7: in the sky very.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Much so andrea well hey i always appreciate you checking
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: in uh we got to get to coop scoops coming
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: up here so we got to move on here andrew
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: good stuff as always i hope you have a great
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: early morning here on friday There she is.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: I'm thankful to Coop. I wouldn't have seen the moon
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: if he didn't send me a beautiful picture of it.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Oh, he did. Well, that's very nice of you, Coop. Yeah.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: Very nice. All right. So before we get to Coop Scoops,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: just one quick thing here. So Ben Solak, he works
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: over there at ESPN, and he put together an interesting column.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: So he's ranking all 32 NFL teams on watchability. Just excitement.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: Not in terms of who's going to be good, who's
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: going to suck. Just who are you interested to watch?
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Which teams entertain you the most? And so he ranks
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: them based on random things. Big plays. You know? He
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: wants to see big plays offensively, defensively. That sort of thing.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Competitive games. Star players. And he also says, you know, sometimes... Um,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: it says nothing offensive is the last category. So this
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: is teams with bad offenses or bad defense can be watchable, right?
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: They can be, he's like, you know, the bears defense
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: stinks basically. Um, but they're fun to watch, but there
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: are other teams where it's just horrible offense. It's horrible defense.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: I don't want to watch it. No, thank you. So
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: that's kind of his criteria. So the most entertaining watches,
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: according to Ben Zolak. How do you say his name?
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: Zolak.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: I had him on my Portland show back when it
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: was a thing. It was funny. My producer at the time,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: Eric Ringering, he was like, this guy is going to
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: be a big deal. He was a kid at the time.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: And the next thing ESPN's hiring him and he's a
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: big deal. I was like, well, Eric knows his stuff.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: But anyway, Ben Solak, he says, the Bears, the Bears,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: the most entertaining watch in the NFL this season. I mean, hey, listen,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: wide open offense. The defense, I think, is going to
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: be pretty rough. But there are going to be some
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: high-scoring games. I don't think that's a horrible idea. Rams
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: number two, obvious reason, star power, big plays, offense, Stafford,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: reigning MVP, all that. Lions three, Chargers four. You have
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: chargers as a top five watch this season. You know, I,
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: I don't think top five, I think it's a stretch,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: but listen, they have star power. Um, you got Harbaugh
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: in the mix. Jim Harbaugh is always zany, always wacky.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: Good for a soundbite fun. Uh, Herbert has been a
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: very talented guy has zero playoff wins, but very talented. Um,
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: and they're always like, It seems like they're on the
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: cusp with Jim Harbaugh to break out and have that
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: one studly season. So, okay, the Patriots fifth. They pick
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: up A.J. Brown. Okay, but a top five team in
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: terms of entertainment? This is my biggest beef with the list.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Number 22 on the list, the Chiefs. Are you serious
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: right now? The Chiefs are not that bad of a watch.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: That's crazy. Some of the teams ahead of the Chiefs,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: the Colts. Okay, the Colts are on Sunday night football.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: You're more excited for that than watching the Chiefs?
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: Really?
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: Mahomes, just the playmaking ability, stylistically. And think about just
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: the cachet that the Chiefs have. It's like, hey, who
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: we got on Monday night football? We got the Chiefs.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: Some of these teams ahead, we got Jacksonville. Oh, okay.
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: Really?
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Come on.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: More entertaining to watch? I just don't buy that at all.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: The Chiefs are not the 22nd most entertaining watch in
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: the NFL. That's absurd. That makes no sense at all.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Now his bottom five, he's got dead last the Browns,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: second to dead last my Dolphins. Can't. You can't argue
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: with that this year. Titans 30th, and then the Arizona
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Cardinals and the Falcons as bottom five entertainment watches this season,
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: or entertaining watches. There you go. I think the Chiefs
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: are way too low. That's crazy to me. Stylistically with Mahomes,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: their offense, you get Mansoor Delane, the young corner, sixth
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: pick overall. They were in three Super Bowls in a row.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: Then we're a, what, five or six win team last season.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: You're not excited to see how they respond, how they rebound. Oh,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: there's no, I'd have them in the top. five way
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: sooner than I had them 22nd. That's crazy. All right.
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: But speaking of entertaining, we throw it to Marcel. to
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: throw it to Coop. You take it away, Marcel.
• 29:52
  Speaker 6: Oh, thank you, Brian.
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: No, Coop's Group on Entertainment, the Friday tradition, and hooray
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: for Hollywood!
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: Starting now, here's Justin Cooper at All-Bronco Fan on X.
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: All yours, my man.
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: Thank you, Marcel. Great job, as always.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. That was great.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Worked your Twitter handle in there. That was fantastic.
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: That's right. Yeah, no, he's on top of it.
• 30:16
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 30:16
  Speaker 6: So we are going to start off in the theaters,
• 30:18
  Speaker 6: as we always do here on Coop Scoop Entertainment. A
• 30:21
  Speaker 6: couple of movies that I wanted to point out today.
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: First is a new movie called The Dog Stars. Now,
• 30:31
  Speaker 6: this one is a movie I was excited about, but
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: the reviews so far are not great. It's basically a
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: post-apocalyptic story from director Ridley Scott starring Jacob Elordi and
• 30:45
  Speaker 6: Josh Brolin, as well as Margaret Qualley and Allison Janney.
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: Great cast here.
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: Basically, tells the story of Hig, a young pilot who,
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: together with a military survivalist, has carved out an efficient
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: but isolated homestead in a brutal post-apocalyptic world. Then a
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: mysterious radio transmission, et cetera, et cetera. I'll probably still

  Speaker 6: If it's a movie that I was kind of skeptical
• 31:22
  Speaker 6: about to begin with, and then I see a whole
• 31:25
  Speaker 6: bunch of bad reviews come in, then I'm just like, okay, fine.

• 31:54
  Speaker 6: is based on an old 1960-something newspaper article that did
• 31:59
  Speaker 6: kind of like a spoof on this. But basically, it's
• 32:03

  Speaker 6: the version of himself kidnaps him, he's not with the
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: woman that he wants to be with. So he finds
