  Speaker 2: We have been talking about this particular storyline for months
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: and months and months and months and months, and here
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: we are the obligatory Malard monologue on the life and
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: times the stylings of mister Rah. That's right, mister Rogers Neighborhood,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: which was produced by public television in Pittsburgh. And now
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: mister Rogers is going to be playing quarterback for the
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: hometown team.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: There Aaron Rodgers arrived.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Oh so exciting. I'm emotional. I'm for Clemped, I am
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: I'm for Klemped. Rogers arrived there first day of mandatory
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: mini camp. You always remember your first time. And he
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: put on that Steeler uniform at the practice facility right there,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: and he spoke with the media. He waxed loquacious, and
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you heard what he had to
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: say or not. Perhaps not, but Aaron Rodgers going on
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: and on for the first time as a member of
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: the Pittsburgh football team. Now keep in mind, he did
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: want to play for the Vikings. They didn't want him,
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: and he even talked to the Giants. He must have
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: been on some ayahuasca when he talked to the Giants.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: When you're talking the Giants, you already play with the Jets.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: You've experienced suck football in the New York tri state area.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Why would you going to play with the other suck team.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Anyway, he ends up in Pittsburgh, and so there were
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: discussions with other other teams, but he ends up going there. Now,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: we chopped up a couple of clips for you from
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Here he covered a wide range of topics. It was
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: like fifteen minutes, so it wasn't that long.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: You can watch the whole thing if you want, but
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: this is pretty boring, so we'll just give you the highlights.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: That's all you need. You don't need the whole thing.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Time is the most valuable commodity you have, so why
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: waste it listening to that? So let me you little
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: taste here, little just to taste just a little taste there,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: so airin Roger.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Now you explain why he.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Waited so long the long national nightmare came doing why
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: did he wait so long to go and sign that contract?
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: And then listen closely because this is a telling answer.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Take a listen.
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: I don't want to short change the guys and be
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: you know, sign but be elsewhere mentally or physically, so
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: until I could be here and be all in. You know,
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: I need to take care of my business.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Okay, got to take care of my business now. But wait,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: there's more.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Rogers says he chose to play for the Steelers after
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: doing some soul searching.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Take a listen.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: I don't need it from my ego. I don't need it. No,
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: keep playing.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: No.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: A lot of decisions that I've made over my career
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: and life from strictly the ego. Yeah, even if they
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: turn out well or always unfulfilling, that's right. Decisions made
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: yes from the soul. Soul are usually pretty fulfilling. So
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: this was a decision that was best for my soul.
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: And I felt like being here with Coach T and
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: the guys I got here, and the opportunity here was
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: the best for me. And then I'm excited to be here.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: I do the same thing. When I come in here
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: and do sports takes, I do it from the soul.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Are you My sports takes are from the soul, and
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: when they're not from the soul, I'm not fulfilled.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: I'm not all right. So let us discuss the question.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Can you parse the words. We gave you some of them.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Can you parse the words of Aaron Rogers and.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: His commentary on the first four More media conference. Aaron
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Rodgers as a Pittsburgh steeer. So I've got Bull Durham,
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: dead air, and mausoleum, and we will combine all of
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: these things together, and we're gonna make a Pittsburgh sandwich.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Which is a sandwich. What's the Pittsburgh Salmich. Well, that's
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: a sandwich. Will you put the fries on top of
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: the sandwich. That's a Pittsburgh sanwiche. Now, we're not gonna
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: make Pittsburgh pizza, which is disgusting. In the greater Pittsburgh area,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: they have that pizza where they don't cook the cheese
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: and the toppings.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Pee. Yeah, what stings.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Anyway, get to the point, please, So in terms of
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: parsing the words of Aaron Rodgers, this is rather straightforward.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: It's rather straightforward.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: It's by the book to the letter, if you will,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: we'll go that far now, Rogers, for much of this
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: he went what we call Bull Durham. That's an old
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: baseball movie. It's a classic if you haven't seen it,
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: the famous scene where Crash Davis one of the characters
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: in the Baseball Movie There gives advice to Nuclalouge, and
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: he says, you're gonna have to learn your cliches. So
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: I gotta have to learn your cliches. You're gonna have
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: to study them, and you've gotta have to know them.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: They're your friends, all right, that's your friends. And and
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: so Rogers been around you. It's not his first barbecue,
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: and so Rogers knows a thing or two about cliches.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: And he's very mechanical for much of it, as we
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: anticipated he would be. For the most party, smooched the
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Steeler history smooth smooth smooch, gave a big wet kiss
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: to the Pittsburgh Yinser crowd there, talked about all the
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: people that he's worked with who are from western Pennsylvania
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: and all that stuff, and he he was going. Now
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: the first SoundBite that we played, though, like the first
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: SoundBite that we played, that was telling, because Rogers confirmed
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: what we had been hearing. He said the quiet part
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: out loud. He said what it sounded like to me.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: We don't play that cut one. We even't play that again.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: Let's play that cut one. He listened to Rogers here
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: because I think it's interesting.
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: I didn't want to short change the guy and be,
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: you know, sign but be elsewhere mentally or physically, so
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: until I could be here and be all in, you know,
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: I need to take care of my business.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: So the way I interpreted that using the Malo Rosetta
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: stone is that Aaron Rodgers is still bitter that he
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: got ripped when he was with the Jets for going
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: to the Pyramids in Egypt, and he's still bitter about that.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: So he had things planned. We'll get to that in
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: a second what he was planning. But Aaron Rodgers like, hey,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: I'm not doing it again.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: I'll play for you, but I'm gonna wait until I'm
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: done with all of my itinerary and all of my
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: travel plans, and then only then I will sign with
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: your stupid football team. And if you don't want it,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: that's fine. That's what he did. He didn't want to hassle.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: He had trips planned around the world, has passport burning
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: a hole in his pocket. He wanted to use his passport,
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: so that's it. He just bounced around and that's what
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: he did, and he waited and he's done with his travel.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: So he's like, Okay, I'll now attend the team functions
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: and the workouts and all that crap. And he confirmed it.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: That is confirmation. That is confirmation what you heard from Rogers' confirmation. Now,
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: as for the soul searching and satisfaction for your soul,
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: that was mostly a bubble bath for Mike Tomlin. Suck
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: up to your new boss and Curry favor. Nice bromance
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: between Tomlin and Aaron Rodgers.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Now page two.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: The other big storyline. The other big storyline here is
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: that Aaron Rodgers also confirmed that one of the things
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: that he was busy doing this offseason was getting married.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's a tabloid starts true. Rogers showed
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: up to the Kentucky Derby with the wedding band, and
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: some people thought that was like a psy op. That
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: was like some kind of weird trick that Rogers was doing.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: Now some guys are going out of the pawnshop to
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: get a wedding band because for some reason, women are
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: more attracted to the man who have a wedding band.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Go figure.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: Anyway, Rogers actually got married. He confirmed it. He's got
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: a new wife. Off season wedding. He's been married for
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: at least a couple of months. And what intrigues you, though, question,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: what intrigues you most about the fact that this is.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: A pretty big development, said, who cares?
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: It's a tabloid story, man, Okay, but it's kind of
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: a big deal. So what intrigues you most? So for me,
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: it's the dead air. It's the dead air. I have
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: nightmares about dead air right actually day meares because I
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: sleep during the day. But I have issues with the
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: dead air. Radio silence, another problem, radio sounds. We talked
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: about a public figure, a polarizing figure in Aaron Rodgers,
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: a man that lives in Malibu. Bu all right, lives
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: in Malibu, the part that didn't burn down, and they
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: have an infestation in Malibu with paparazzo.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: They're everywhere.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: The paparazzi's all over the place. And there was no week.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: We didn't see TMZ helicopters flying overhead, no ex girlfriend
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: or ex buddy spilling the beans on the gram, none
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: of that. That's unreal to my knowledge as I understand
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: the story. There were no photos. Still, the tabloids are
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: losing their mind. There are no photos of his wife.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: We know her name, but there's no photos. The Daily
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Mail and the New York Posts are losing it. Oh
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: my god, we've got to find a photos. Woman, We do,
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: cause you look like now they got there trying to
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: get the bottom of it, and everyone everyone's like, I
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: don't know who.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: We know kind of her name, but that's it. We
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: don't know who she is.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: The thing about they've been married for a couple of months.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: I assume if you're married, you normally live together. So
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: they've never gone out in public together in Malibu. The
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: paparazzo outside every grocery store and restaurant in Melbourne. There's
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: no photos of them together, like walking on the beach,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: even nothing that's bizarre.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: And they said, wow, maybe they eloped. Okay, they eloped.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: I eloped. I eloped in Hawaii. Okay.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: But even if you elope, there's always somebody at the
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: courthouse who has to fill out and file the paperwork,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: even if it's done digitally, And those people can call
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: the tip line at Harvey Levin's office over their TMZ
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: and make ten grand saying hey, I got Aaron Rodgers
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: got married to this. This brought over on her name.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: But here's her name and a boom done. Ten grand
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: in your pocket could be a twenty five thousand dollars story.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: Nobody did that. So he said he's married, he's got
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: the wedding. Is he actually designed the paper? Is this
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: just like a full wedding? I don't know. I don't know,
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: so it's interesting to me. He had another quarterback, Josh Allen,
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: who had a celebrity wedding, and there were helicopters overhead,
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: there were Papa Rozzo outside. He got married in Santa
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Barbara and there were a bunch of people there. Now
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: we know Rogers family likely was not his wedding. He
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: doesn't like them, so he wasn't with his family. But
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: to keep everyone on their even his friends are claiming.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: I thought they were lying. Maybe they were lying that ah,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: they didn't know about it, like nobody knew about it.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: So Rogers he's playing chess. He's playing four D chess
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: on this one to keep everyone out of the loop,
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: dodging the tabloids like would be tacklers running with the
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: football there, ducking the paparazzi as they try to get
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: a photo of him living his life off the grid
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: in a very very public place.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: So forget audibles. This is not an audible. This is
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: a misdirection play, is what this is?
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: Now the last word here we head to Cleveland, where
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: the football sucks.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: But the sound bites are not bad. The sound bites
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: are not bad.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: So an amusing quote from defensive and Miles Garrett.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: You know who he is.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's the guy that almost killed the Steelers quarterback
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, threw his helmet at him,
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: went four. Didn't connect, or Miles Garrett would not be
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: in the NFL right now. Anyway, Miles Garrett is in
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: the NFL. And he was asked about Aaron Rodgers being
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: a divisional opponent, which means you get to play him twice.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: And here is what.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers' opponent here, Miles Garrett had to say, take
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: a lis.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: But not think about it. Yeah, I think it's a
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: good opportunity to put him in the graveyard. Oh my god,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: he wants to kill him. Call the cops.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Miles Garrett wants to murder Aaron Rodgers violence.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: I know, so you heard it.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: The Browns defensive end Miles Garrett asked about Aaron Rodgers
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: joining the Steelers and he said.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: I think it's quote, I think.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: It's good opportunity to put him in the graveyard close quote.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: Do you see that actually happening ending Rogers' career because
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: of Miles Garrett making a sack on Aaron Rodgers. We
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: do not see that, all right, We do not see
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: that at all. Aaron Rodgers joining the Steelers, by the way,
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: spoiler alert, spoiler alert, Aaron Rodgers did join the Steelers
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: from the other side. From the other side of the
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Pearly Gates. He was in a mausoleum he played for
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: the Jets. When you play for the Jets, it's like
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: living in a burial chamber. When you're playing for the Jets.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Your career dies when you play there. It just does.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: It did for Aaron Rodgers, right, And so Rodgers is
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: looking to be Poltergeist and come back to haunt Gang
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Green by turning out to be the player they thought
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: the Jets were getting. But do it with the Pittsburgh
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Steelers and all that, and woo spooky, spooky, spooky spooky
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers. Now, as for Miles Garrett. As for Miles Garrett,

  Speaker 2: Out said, what's what's going on with the curfew in
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: LA and there's been some civil unrest. We do the
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: show from Los Angeles and it's it's a small part
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: of LA. It's in downtown Los Angeles. I gotta tell you,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: I drove right through it on the way into the
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: studio right through it, and boy, did I get a show. Man,
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: did I get a great show, very entertaining show. I
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: have not seen that many police since the LA riots
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: in the ninety It was I didn't know there were that.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: I know there's a lot of police at LAPD and
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: we're friends with some of those guys that listened to
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: the show.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: But that was insane, man, they were I.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Drove right through downtown Los Angeles, the one O one
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: where there were a bunch of protesters or looters.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: I think thirty eight.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: Businesses got looted before they finally put a curfew in
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: in LA. I guess that's the magic number thirty eight.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: I read that summerre anyway, We're fine. We're far away
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: from that we do the show from and I got
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: a no traffic. That was good for traffic. Everyone kind
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: of cleared out, so I had a good view of everything.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: The highway was lit up by the helicopters, so it
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: was it was a free show on the way. And
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: we will be calling for a manager to be fined
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: and a team to be punished for something that happened
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: in Major League Baseball on Tuesday night. We will get
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: to that but right now we have it, says here
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: instant replay. Bob wants to complain about instant replay? Bob,
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: what are you upset about? Instant replay?
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Bob? What are you complaining about? What is this about?
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Bob and Missouri? Helloo? Hey, Ben harry Man, Bob, if
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: I was any better?
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: Uh, well, there's a cosmic event we'll get to. So
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be a crazy night. I can tell that.
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: But anyway, go ahead, what's on your mind?
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: Well, I've seen more games in my lifetime without instant replay,
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: so when they you know, when they first brought it in,
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: I was pretty interested to see what they were going
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: to do. And you know, I've always considered every play
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: in the sporting event significant. You know, it could be,
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: it could turn a game one way or the other.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: And the fact that they've they've been so selective, you know,
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: it gets so frustrating when you sit here, you go
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: that play is not reviewable.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: I mean they tried p I in the NFL until
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: Goodell caved in the next year because that was a disaster.
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: And baseball, I mean, we all know the old Uh well,
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: maybe you and I will Don Don Dickins. You're blown
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: the call in Game six of the eighty five World Series,
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: which is obviously a horrible call, but you know, I
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: think you'll agree.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: Well, that led to a that led to the famous
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: urinal being destroyed at the ballpark there in Kansas City.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: It was it Joaquin.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: Andrew Har that destroyed the late Joaquin Andrew Har believe
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: destroyed the commode there in Kansasy. All right, so you're
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: bringing examples, but let's get to the point. Sum it
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: up your hypothesis in one sentence.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: What is it?
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: Well, let's just get it all consistent and either either
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: I mean we lived, We lived for a long time
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: without it, and nobody died.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: Yes, So I mean, well, I think, really what you're
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: getting at here, here's my take on because I agree.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: I'm of the age I watched a lot of sports
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: without instant replay. When it came in, everyone thought this
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: was going to cure everything. There'll be no more controversies
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: and like pretty much everything. As I've grown through my life,
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: I've realized that most things start out as a good
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: idea and then they get muddled.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, just look at America started was founded
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: based on you know, we want less tax and whatever,
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: and so now there's a.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: Million taxes just about everywhere.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: But the instant replay thinks, wow, it's gonna be rare.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: We're not gonna do a lot of instant replay. And
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: now they want to review everything because as you said,
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: well every call.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: Matters and all that stuff, and so it's just.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: The red tape and everything gets slowed down, and it's it's.
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: We live about it for years, man, I.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: Mean, I know, but can you imagine they got if
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: they got rid of it. Oh my god, I can't
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: get rid of instant replay. They want more, they want more.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: They need more, Bob, they want more instant replay, Bob.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Then you know they want more.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: What they thing anything on Benny versus a penny? Going
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: to be able to do it again on Pete Cocker.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Well we are. We're waiting to hear back from the network.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: There are some meetings going on at NBC this month
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: and so we'll find out.
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: But I will let you know.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: You know, I one thing I'm not afraid of is
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: promoting that TV show. So I will let you know
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: if the show is back, and hopefully it is and
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: it's out of my control, Bob. It's other big corporate
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: muckety MUCKs that have to decide that. So if you
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: want to be a title sponsor, though, contact NBC. You
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: can be the time smile thank you by I gotta
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: go all right anyway, I am calling now. I want
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: to announce as across the board, all the affiliates down
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: the line, I am calling for Dave Roberts to be
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: fined by Major League Baseball now. I No, Baseball is
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: not gonna do it. They don't have the balls to
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: do it. They allowed a team to cheat in the
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: World Series and didn't punish them. So it's like I'm
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: calling for Dave Roberts and the Dodgers to be punished.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: That was one of the.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: Most disgusting nights of regular season baseball I've ever seen.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: I thought I was watching an NBA game.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: The Dodgers forfeited a regular season game.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: They forfeited a regular season game. That's the Dodgers.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: How many stories did I read? How many stories did
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: I read? Greatest team of all time? Unbelievable roster. We
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: are not even at the All Star break and the
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: Dodgers just flushed a game away.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: What are we doing against supposedly a.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: Rival, a team that they're baggling with for positioning, the
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: San Diego Padres. The Dodgers, because they had some pitching issues,
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: they pitched a bullpen game. But really what they did
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: was they threw the game. Some guy named Matt Sower,
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: I believe is his name. This big country bumpkin guy.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: Now he didn't start the game, but he went out
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: there and put gasoline and lit it.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: On fire while he was out there.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: He went in the course of his outing, he allowed
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: nine runs, thirteen hits, one hundred and eleven pitches. And
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: then the Dodgers they said, Dave Robbins, all right, then
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: the sixth inning once because you have to be down
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: by a certain number of runs. So Roberts left this
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: guy in until they got down by the proper amount
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: of runs, and then brought in the human mop key
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: k Hernandez, who's actually been a better pitcher this year
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: than a hitter, even though he's a position player, and
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: brought him in in the sixth inning. They brought in
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: a position player in the sixth inning and had him
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: close the game out. That's the Dodgers. The sworda is
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: rolling over in his grave right now. That's the Dodgers.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: It's embarrassing. Punish them, never do that again, and so
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: you should save the bullpit. Screw you, you're a loser
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: to if you think that this is the kind of
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: crap we see in the NBA. And nobody pays any
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: attention to the NBA regular season. And David Stern, he's
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: also dead. David Stern tried, he tried to control that
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: early on the San Antonio Spurs, that weasel, that loser,
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: Greg Popovich, that scumbag with load management. And David Stern,
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: he had the foresight. He said, this is going to.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: Ruin our product. We must punish them, and they find them.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: And he tried, and then Adam Silver took over and said,
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: do whatever the hell you want. We don't care. And
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: now no one watches. The product is terrible. They can't
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: sell the product. Nobody wants it. And it started small.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Majorly. I'm sure the poteryfs are happy they won the game.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: That Dodgers gave the game might as well. Why is
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: it forfeit?
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, our pictures, God forbid, they have to
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: throw more, just don't even show up.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: Just forfeit the effing game. That's the Dodgers, so embarrassing.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: Embarrassed Mookie bats and Freddie Freeman and shoe Heo Toani
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: and forfeiting a game on June tenth, to the Padres.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: You forfeited that game, that's the Dodgers. It's pathetic. Now
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: I believe I know why they did it. There's a
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: cosmic event. Let's go now to our cosmic insider. And
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: every overnight sports radio show needs a cosmic insider. And
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: we go now to the front line of the cosmic battlefield,
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: far far away outside the Milky Way galaxy. She's known
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: as the Astrology Lady, among other things. Our friend Andrea
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: for go in service on ex Hello Andrea, welcome, and.
• 28:00
  Speaker 6: How are you. I like that title, the cosmic Insider.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: You are the cosmic insider for sure. And there's a
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: major cosmic event, as I understand it. Can you explain
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: now that there's a lot of weird crap going on?
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: We know from doing overnight radio that when there is
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: a certain thing that takes place out there in the heavens,
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: it does affect human behavior.
• 28:19
  Speaker 6: Yes, very much. So as above so below. And we
• 28:23
  Speaker 6: got a strawberry moon happening.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: Strawberry Moon strawberry moon, a Darryl strawberry moon.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: Strawberry moon. Wow, yeah, Actually.
• 28:33
  Speaker 6: It's called the strawberry moon. You know how much we
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: like the Farmer's Almanac because strawberries become ripe and it's
• 28:39
  Speaker 6: strawberry season around them.
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Oh jew okay.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: There's a famous donut shop in socol that serves strawberry donuts. Famous,
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: don't it, This place called donut Man. They get the
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: strawberry donuts, very very good.
• 28:52
  Speaker 6: Yes, oh okay, So twelve fifty eight pm Pacific time,
• 29:00
  Speaker 6: we have the full moon in let's see, we're in
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: Gemini season, so it'll be in Sagittarius. And sure enough,
• 29:10
  Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers had a few things to say with the
• 29:14
  Speaker 6: full moon in Sagittarius sun in Gemini. So interesting. Full
• 29:20
  Speaker 6: moons are very intense and things kind of come to
• 29:25
  Speaker 6: a head. So it's the last full moon or the
• 29:27
  Speaker 6: spring or the first of summer, depending on how you
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: look at it. And it's a strawberry moon again because
• 29:35
  Speaker 6: it's strawberry season, and that's the old Farmer's Almanac, and
• 29:40
  Speaker 6: it's you know, basically appears full on June eleventh, so
• 29:46
  Speaker 6: we're right on the cusp. So look up in the
• 29:48
  Speaker 6: sky and you'll see the full moon, and you know,
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: more intense emotional energy happens during the full moon. The's
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: kind of come to a head. So it's, you know,
• 29:58
  Speaker 6: the lot going on on the planet right now.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's always a lot going on, but for sure
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: it's it's enhanced this time when there's a full moon,
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: and it just it just is that.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: And people say, oh, you don't, I don't believe in
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: that stuff. Trust me.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: I whether you believe it or not, it happens because
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: I've been doing this for twenty years and I know,
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: I just know when there's a full moon, there's just
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: a little extra you know what that's out there.
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: So yes, and we have Aaron Rodgers as a poster
• 30:24
  Speaker 6: trial for that with him sharing how much you know,
• 30:27
  Speaker 6: the possible marriage. He mentioned the wedding ring, how we
• 30:32
  Speaker 6: wanted to go to the Steelers or not play at all.
• 30:37
  Speaker 6: So it's interesting that, you know, that's kind of coming
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: to fruition. So it's really interesting that he's a Sagittarius.
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: The full moon's and Sagittarius and here he is in
• 30:51
  Speaker 6: all this glory taking a lot more attention here for sure.

• 31:08
  Speaker 2: One of my nature boy writes in Answering the Call
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: to the Wild, he says, at least the Dodgers got
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: to run when Conforto came through with a single. You
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: know you're in trouble when you see Key k with
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: the weird batting helmet. Yeah, that is Does that not
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: look like a Little League, like a little League pitcher, Like, Hey,
