• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Tire Buying Show. So our lead this hour is from
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: the mouth of the MVP of the NFL, where the
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: Buffalo roam about a month away from training camping. What
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: better way to celebrate the one month mark than to
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: parse the words of a star in the NFL as
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: we start looking ahead, playing peek a boo with the calendar.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Josh Allen did a deep dive interview on a number
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: of topics, but one of the things he discussed was
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: the award that he won last season in Western New York.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: So if he didn't hear what he said, maybe not.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: The Bills starred Josh Allen, not impressed with the Most
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Valuable Player hardware that he picked up. Alan says, the
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: award quote means nothing without a super Bowl. Thus he
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: reignited the great debate that has gone on on sports
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: radio and other places. But the value of individual accolades
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: versus a super Bowl or championship, he said, quote, it
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: is such a great honor, and I do appreciate being
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: honored for my work. Alan said, but remember a butt
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: means everything you said before that you don't believe when
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: you say the word, but everything before the word. But
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: you are saying his bull crap. But at the same time,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: I still didn't win a super Bowl. I didn't win
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: a ring, and that is the only goal. It's the
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: only focus and I've ever I've ever had, he said
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: that I've ever had going into the league, this league
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: quote quote from Josh Allen. So let us discuss the
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: question the raining Most Valuable Player Award winner Bill's quarterback
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Josh Allen essentially calling the MVP award worthless says, it
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: means nothing without a ring. That's the way I interpreted it.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: So is that how it works that if you didn't
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: win the championship, it's all a waste of time. It's
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: all a big waste of time. So on this one,
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: I've got bestseller flip phones and Rosetta Stone, and we
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: will combine all of these things together and we're gonna
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: make extra cheesy bread cheesy cheesy, all right. So to
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: kick off here, to kick off only in Buffalo. Only
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: in Buffalo can a guy win the MVP Award and
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: still feel like he lost? Right, That's the beauty of
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills. Now, I know this is just what
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: you're supposed to say, Josh Allen. This is the right
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: out of the guidebook on how to handle this.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Here.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: You get the high is individual honor that you can
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: get in your profession. The highest honor for an individual
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: while you are still playing is the Most Valuable Player award.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: And he's just.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Shrugging it off in la la la la la. It's
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: like some kind of participation trophy or something like that.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: And I'm all about the team. No, no, no, no, no,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I'm not worried about the MVP. I'm all about the team.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: I'm Josh Allen and I'm all about the team. Is
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: this not the phoniest thing? It's not just Josh Allen.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: I'm picking on Josh Allen because he's the one that
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: said it the latest, But it's the phoniest thing we
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: have going. It happens all the time where players win
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: MVP awards, but they don't happen to win a championship
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: that year. And it's just phony because obviously Josh Allen cares,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: he cares.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: What is my evidence that he cares. Let me tell you.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Let's flashback in the hot top time machine to the
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty four NFL season late in the year when
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: it was a neck and neck race between Josh Allen
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: and Lamar Jackson.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: If I'm not mistaken, maybe I am mistaken. Was as
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: I remember my memory is.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: That Josh Allen was out there and the Buffalo Bills
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: were out there publicly campaigning. So if it meant nothing,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: if it meant nothing without the ring, why were you
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: out there campaigning late in the season. And there was
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: a full throated sweet talk message from the Bill's coaching
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: staff and there were massaging.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Voters and going on and on and on.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: So this response by Josh Allen by the book It's
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: a bestseller, a New York Times bestseller, A Complete Idiot's
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Guide to sports cliches. What you are supposed to say
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: when you win the MVP but you don't win the championship.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: It is like, I don't care about individual accolades and
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: the MVP.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Come on, now, is the MVP everything?
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: Of course? Not?
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Of course, not right.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: However, the super Bowl is a team award, not an
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: individual award. You need the help of your teammates to
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: win the Super Bowl. The MVP, which you also could say,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: you need your help of your teammates, but it's more
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: of an individual thing, obviously. And let's not pretend that
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: it's just nothing. That's a nonsensical illogical that's Dingleberry territory
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: is what that is there, And just don't insult our intelligence.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: I just don't pretending that it means nothing when you
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: know you were campaigning for it and you desperately wanted
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: it and you got it, and congratulations for that. I said,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: you should have gotten the MVP award, even though the
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: nerds are saying all Lamar Jackson should have been the
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: MVP and all that stuff. And if that's how you
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: really felt, Josh Allen's you know, I'm not going to
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: accept it in retrospect, now that I have time to
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: process everything and I look back at the season, I'm
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: going to decline that trophy, the MVP. I'm gonna be
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: like Reggie Bush and send it back. And that's it
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: right now. Furthermore, Cincinnati, we go. Update to the update Now.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: The previous episode of this radio show, we mentioned that
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: Trey Hendrickson and the Bengals had resumed they'd resumed contract
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: negotiations on a new deal, which gave many people optimism
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: of a quick resolution about the time a month ago
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: before training camp. Well, now, unfortunately they're not close. Now
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: we're hearing the compensation is not right and the duration
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: of the contract is not right.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Boo hoo hoo.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: So Trey Hendrickson, defensive stalwart, NFL sack leader Trey Hendrickson
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: and the Bengals remain in contract. Limbo, are you surprised
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: by this? So we are not. I'll go first, we
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: are not. Here's why Cincinnati, in their mind, is tapped out.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: They are tapped out financially.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: That's all.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: She wrote, that's it. Now they have the money, they
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: don't want to spend the money. They're saving it for
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: a rainy day. It's a good time for rain, too,
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: good time for rain. Getting back to the roots, the
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: DNA of the franchise, it's classic Cincinnati. This is what
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: they do. They don't like football. They like hardball, that's
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: what they like. And they're like, you know, we paid
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: our money, We gave the receivers the money. We don't
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: need to pay this guy. And you know, it's like
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: you go down to the Dollar General buy some paper towels.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: And they have more flexibility than the Bengals when it
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: comes to this kind of negotiation. And if they had
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: to choose the Bengals, forget the iPhone, they'd go with
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: the flip phone. Not even an Android flip phone, not
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: even a BlackBerry, They'd go flip phone. And the Bengals
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: have now boxed themselves into a corner. The way I
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: look at this from the outside looking in, because the
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: strategy is like, if we ignore this long enough, then
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: maybe Hendrickson O'll cave in and he'll take less than
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: what he wants. Since the negotiation and even though he
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: led the league in Sacks. He is at thirty years old,
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: and so he's at that age where you don't get
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: the big contract. Maybe one more contract than that's it,
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: but good luck, good luck. Joe Burrow can't expect another impotent,
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: incompetent and that best inconsistent defense in Cincinnati upcoming in
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty five.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Now, last thing, we pivot over to baseball.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Talking bass ball, the Atlanta Braves, who victorious in their
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: game on Wednesday night.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: The Braves have been chronic underachievers.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: They started out by having a horrible West Coast road
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: trip to begin the season, and the Atlanta Braves have
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: not been very competitive this year, and there is chatter
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: of a mid season bonfire in the atl dumping veteran players.
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: If you want somebody on the Atlanta Braves other than
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: the obvious two or three top players, that's it. Call
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: the Braves up. Not so fast, my friend, because when
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: specifically asked on Atlanta's sports talk radio about a Chris
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: Sale trade and his value, the Chris Sale, the starting pitcher,
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: former Sak White Sock and red Sock, the Atlanta Braves
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: executive in charge, like the GM, the Facto GM alex Anthopolis,
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: was very clear. When asked whether or not the Braves
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: are gonna unload, Chris Sale said three words, will not happen.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Will not happen? The Braves stepping up and saying they
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: have zero intention of trading the aforementioned Chris Sale. Does
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: that end the noise? Does that turn the volume down?
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Down? Down, down down?
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: So I'll go first here and that would be a
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: hell to the know, a hell to the no unless
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: you are a country bumpkin, unless you're a rube. And
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: if that's the case, Yeah, we know that teams lie.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: They lie all the time. It is part of the job.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: General managers, executives of sports teams are indoctrinated. They go
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: to the same clown college and they're indoctrinated in when
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: we have no plans to trade this player, we love
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: this player, blah blah blah blah blah. Two days later,
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: they're shipped out of town and no looking back, no
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: looking back. That's it happens all the time. And yet
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: there are people that still to this day believe what
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: they are told. They're called suckers is what they are.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: They're called suckers. You should never believe politicians, and you
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: should never believe people that run sports teams, you should not.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: But looking at the MLB malor Rosetta Stone, when you
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: say we have no plans to trade a player, that
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: means in this case, Chris Sale has already likely packed
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: up his bags. He's looking at Zillow. He's said, well,
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: I be traded to Los Angeles? Am I going to
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: the Yankees? Where am I going? He's looking at real estate. Now,
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: the Bravos last I checked, are under five hundred. When
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: you're under five hundred, you're not really a contender, you're
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: a fraud. You're a faux contender at best.
• 13:54
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: I know they added the Fugese wild card to give
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: the illusion of contention. So there's a lot of teams
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: that mathematically are contenders that realistically are not because they're
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: under five hundred.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: The math works out where you.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: Still have a chance, you still have a chance, and
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: you are what your record says you are. And Atlanta's
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: record says garbage. That's what it says. Even if you
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: discount the opening road trip, which I think they started
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: zero to six or oh and seven, they're a five
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: hundred team right around five hundred since then, So that's
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: what you are. And that's it, and that's all you are.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: And Chris Sale, oh, by the way, is a ticking
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: time bomb. Tick tick tick tick tick tick based on
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: what he did in Boston with all the injuries. He's
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: been able to dodge most of that in Georgia. But
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: he has an eighteen million dollar club option. And if
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: somebody's going to give you something halfway decent and you're
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: not going to make the playoffs this year, why would
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: you not consider it. You'd be a foolhardy individual not
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: to consider making that deal. And so this is one
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: of those things. You take out the yellow post it note,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: and you take out the black sharp beeat and you
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: write a little note clip and save a couple weeks
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: from now when Chris Sale is introduced as the newest
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Dodger starting pitcher, or the newest pitcher for the Yankees,
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: or the usual suspects here that are in contention, and
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: you say, okay, well check back, and everyone will pretend
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: that that quote from Alexanthopolis did not happen.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: It's all made up. It's all just made up gibberish.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: What is the Bean Mahlor show, which is not made up?
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: But we are hanging out with you all night, every
• 15:38

  Speaker 1: At all at all.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: Supermarket Steve Road in earlier says thank you for not
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: having the Yankee nonsense in the monologue. Did not, but
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: I did mention Anthony Volpi. I guess you were not
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: listening his tremendous defensive plays. He butchered the ball at
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: shortstop which help cost the Yankees of the game. But
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: things are going very well. Things are going very well.
• 17:52

  Speaker 2: both out the.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Same two days. Brry suss He said, well, I don't know.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: You'd have to check with HR, which I think is
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: also run by a bot, like the Red Sox when
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: they and they hire people.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: That makes sense. Mister Irrigation writes in.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: And says the Astros are now up by five and
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: a half games in the AO West. The next closest
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: team are the Mariners, who are only two games over
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: five hundred. Will the Stros have a double digit lead
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: in the West by the All Star break. I'm gonna
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: go no, you Astro apologist, mister Irrigation, unless they get
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: those supersonic trash cans working. Let's go to the phones.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: Coach Russell is in the Orlando area.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: He's been on a great tour of the Southeast. Hello
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Coach Russell, Hey, good morning man.
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: How you doing.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: If I was any better, I would be sleeping, but
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not. But what's going on? You've been traveling around?
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: I know you send me some emails you were Yeah,
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: I'm going ahead.
• 19:07
  Speaker 7: I'm head into South Florida for seven on seven this morning.
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: Oh but I was calling in.
• 19:14
  Speaker 7: I wanted to ask your opinion on the possible expansion
• 19:18
  Speaker 7: of the college Football playoffs to sixteen.
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: I know it's has some traction with.
• 19:25
  Speaker 7: The five top of conference winners and eleven at large.
• 19:31
  Speaker 7: I know they that's for twenty twenty six. I just
• 19:35
  Speaker 7: want to know what your thoughts were.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's just going to be more teams from
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: the Power conferences. Are just going to add more teams
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: from the Big Ten in the Southeast Conference and that's
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: they'll have more teams. But realistically there's probably any given year,
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: I'd say there's like four to six teams that are
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: legit going to be able to win a championship.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Outside of injury. Outside But I'm fine with it. More
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: big games to talk about. I'm okay with it. We
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: you know, I got a show to do, and you're
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: you know, that's That's what I'm worried about.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: So they're gonna keep adding teams because they can make
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: more money from television and all that, But in terms
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: of who can actually win, say any given year, four
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: to six teams.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: That's about it.
• 20:18
  Speaker 7: What do you? Yeah?
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: I agree?
• 20:20
  Speaker 8: You know, they they fought it for years with the
• 20:23
  Speaker 8: Bowl systems and uh, you know, they they integrated it
• 20:28
  Speaker 8: with the Bowl systems, which is what they should have
• 20:30
  Speaker 8: done all along. And you know I I I think
• 20:35
  Speaker 8: sixteen does eliminate some of the some of the chatter.
• 20:39
  Speaker 9: Unlike basketball, Well, there'll still be somebody that's not allowed though,
• 20:44
  Speaker 9: because they're gonna they're gonna lean towards the teams that
• 20:47
  Speaker 9: have big followings, and so you're gonna see some team
• 20:51
  Speaker 9: that's at a smaller conference that has a great record
• 20:53
  Speaker 9: that still doesn't.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: Get in even with sixteen. But you know that's it's good.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Why not? What deck are?
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: Well? Enjoy the seven on seven Coach Russell, may may
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: you have a success. Enjoy South Florida. All right, there
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: is a great Coach Russell game show savant checking in
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: speaking of South Florida where he is right now? Knock knock,
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: who's there? That would be the Stanley Cup, Lord Stanley's Cup. Now,
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: I always thought that guy, Lord Stanley, that cup was
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: like the coolest thing. But then I went to Vancouver
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: and saw that Stanley Park and I was like, wow,
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: that's better than the Stanley Cup. Anyway, the Florida Panthers
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: won the Stanley Cup. For the seven people that were
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: watching and knock knock, who's there? Five in the morning.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: That would be the Stanley Cup. Yes, just why not?
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: So it turns out that Alexander Barkoff was walking around
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: his neighborhood at five in the morning with the Stanley
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: Cup and he just wanted all his neighbors, all of
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: his neighbors to see the cup and to hold the cup. Now,
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: I I've been lucky enough years ago when the Kings
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: won the Stanley Cup. I was able to grab on
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: to the cup and take some photos with the Stanley
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Cup and all that which many people have photos with
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: and all that stuff.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: But it was very cool.
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: And I also saw that they damaged Lord Stanley's Cup
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: already within the first twenty four hours. The cup has
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: been damaged. But there's some funny video you might have
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: seen it. Even our blind listeners have seen it of
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: Alexander Barkoff who went walking around the neighborhood. It's on
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: the ring camera footage of him wandering around. Hey, would
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: you like to see the Stanley Cup?
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Now?
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: If somebody knocks on your door at five not We
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: work overnight, so it's a little different for us. But
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: for us it would be like if somebody knocks on
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: your door at noon, like, dude, we're trying to sleep
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: but if somebody knocks on your door, if you're a
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: normal person and you're not like us working overnight, He's like, hey,
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: it's five in the morning.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: It's five thirty in the morning. You know, knock, knock.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: What kind of loser is better? Be important? What are
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: you doing? You do that whole thing? So anyways, it
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: was amusing.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: Why not how many more times the thing can be
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: damaged and destroyed and we'll use it for like salsa,
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: Put some salcea in there, some nacho cheese and have
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: a big old partay introvert Zach is up next ill
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: the noois I have determined now for my guy, Zach,
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: he loves the fact that the phones are left up
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: because somehow he's able to use his ninja like skills
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: to get in.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Is that correct, Zach.
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: Am?
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: I correct, Zach.
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: It sort of feels that way, honestly.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, if the phones were working properly, you would
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: never get in. But since the phones are all left
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: up and the thing Jay isn't working to watch you
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: might call it can't be fixed. You're able to somehow
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: get pro because you have a superpower, even though you
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: don't really want to be on there. Because you're an
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: introvert like me.
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: Correct, correct, honestly that if the phones were working properly,
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't even try to call.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, So once the owns or fixed, which
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: might be sometime at twenty twenty seven, you will not
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: be part of the show ever again.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: This is it. It's all over. Possibly, thank gotch.
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: You guys are convincing me to be part of the public.
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: I'm not gonna lie.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: Well, the great thing about radio is you can still
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: hide even though you're out in the public because we
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: can't see what you look like. So you can really
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: go behind the scenes and you're kind of known, but
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: you're not really known like that.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Old is perfect.
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: It is a little bit of a beauty, isn't it.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why I'm in radio.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: See television, you have to be an extrovert, but you
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: can be an introvert in radio and have much more success.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: Right on, I got you? All right, Well, how can
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: I help you?
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean you did say the next time I
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: called in.

• 24:49
  Speaker 1: or militia.
• 24:50

• 29:56
  Speaker 1: All right, there you go. It is just in Vegas,
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: not that long ago. They have a giant ferris wheel
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: in Vegas right there. Oh my gosh, I'm going to
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: be staying right next to it. Yeah, really, were you
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: staying in Vegas? Where are you? I don't want to
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: give out the locat so that people don't stalk me. Okay,
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: that's a good decision. But let's say I can see
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: the sphere. Be careful though, because I told her so,
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: I was in Vegas? Was it last weekend or two weeks?
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: A couple weeks ago?
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: I was in Vegas and there's this ice cream shop
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: that I like to go to, So it's I was
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: going to go there, but it's you got to pay
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: for parking, and they were going to charge me thirty
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: six dollars to park. But I was going to be
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: there for like an hour to buy ice cream size
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: and screw that, I'm not going.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: I didn't go, and they won't even validate either. Huh No,
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: they don't validate because it's not it's like you park
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: at one of the hotels. Woweah, the link hotel.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: I'll name the hotel. I don't care the link hotel.
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: I went to park there and I spent my money,
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: you know, spent my money, thirty six bucks they were
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: charging for parking.
• 30:51
  Speaker 10: I debated on driving and then I was like, but
• 30:53
  Speaker 10: then I got to park my car every day and
• 30:55
  Speaker 10: that can be upwards of fifty dollars a day.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's embarrassing. It's in Vegas, you know. I like it,
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: but not as much as they used to. They nickel
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: and dimion everything.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: That's what happens. The corporations took over Vegas. Everyone one, Well, no,
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: there's two. There's MGM and Caesars. Right, they own all
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: the properties on the strip prettymuch. I think there's three, yeah,
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: they So then there's then there's Win and they have
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: like maybe like three Yeah, I know. It's it's uh,
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: it's crazy, and so Ben you say, off the strip
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: and then you take an uber or whatever and save
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: some money because the ones off the strip in Vegas
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: have free, free parking generally speaking. So where's Waldo? The
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty five version more like Where's Antonio Brown? Antonio Brown,
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: who is a wanted man by the police in Miami
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: for attempted murder a former Steeler on video.
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: By the way, it's on vidego.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: Everything's documented on video, so it'll be bringing experts to
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: determine what's real and what's not.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: What happened.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: Let's go to the replay, the expedited replay. So Brown
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: is not in Miami and at last report he is
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: in the Middle East. Now, if you've watched the news,
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: this is likely not a place you want to be
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: right now. Is in the Middle East. There's a lot
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: going on there and not a lot of good stuff
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: in most of the movies. Anyway, the police in Miami said, well,
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: they believe that Antonio Brown is in Dubai and that
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: he was in Dubai before the arrest warrant was issued.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Now the question is will he come back from Dubaiack? No,
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: Is he just gonna stay? Is there a statute of limitations?
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know how this works. If you're charged, I know, murder,
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: there's no statute of limitations, right you murder?
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: That's it. It doesn't matter how old you are. Would
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: you run if they catch you? You're but attempted murder.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: If Antonio Brown were to stay in Dubai for ten years,
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: does the charge go away? Because the statute he hasn't
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: gone to trial and it's been ten years, and then
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: he can just kind of hide out and Dubai and
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: then come back.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: And he's fine. Where did the crime take place? Was
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: it in Florida or in Florida? It was in Miami?
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: Actually was part of Miami. What was the town? I
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: forget the name.
• 33:14
  Speaker 10: There's no statute of limitations for attempted murder in Florida.
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: So there's no So he's stuck. But he's so attempted
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: murder doesn't matter, Okay, all right, so he's going to
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: have to come back.
• 33:25
  Speaker 10: Prosecutors can file charges for attempted murder at any time,
• 33:28
  Speaker 10: regardless of how long ago the crime occurred.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: So you just got to stay in Dubai. Will they
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: allow him to stand? Goodbye?
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: Bye?
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: That's there? You go, all right, Antonio brown boy?
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: You you if you could afford it, Dubai is kind
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: of pricey, right, That's from what I've seen.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: It's like I would think, so, yeah, I wonder if
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: you'd be embraced there. I don't know.
• 33:51
  Speaker 10: He's a little little he's a whackerdoodle on the on
• 33:54
  Speaker 10: the X machine. So wasn't that where he was when
• 33:57
  Speaker 10: he was in the hotel? Pooled and decided to take
• 34:03
  Speaker 10: out his stuff.
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I think you're right on that. I remember
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: that story. That was one of the famous Antonio Brown stories.
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: See he wanted everyone to see his twigging berries and
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: gave everyone a little show there, very proud of himself. Anyway,
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: all right, so we're not I don't think we'll be
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: able to do the game because the phones are all
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: messed up. So I feel bad for Jack and Leslie,
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: the power couple. I know they're standing by, they're trying
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: to get through. The phones are all left up and
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: all that, and I apologize, and we're really at the
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: mercy of whoever's involved in fixing it, which I guess
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: is the phone company, And so we can't play Factor
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: fiction until they fix it.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: So we'll press on here. And we do have one
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: of the one of the lines.
• 34:46
  Speaker 10: We've gotten an update email every single day, and what

  Speaker 10: they said, it was supposed to be fixing Monday, and
• 34:51
  Speaker 10: then that didn't happen. They said, okay, Tuesday, Yeah, and
• 34:54
  Speaker 10: then that didn't happen, and they said okay Wednesday.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: Okay, and here we are.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's great, all right, anyway, straight out, I do
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: have a great story. I was supposed to mention this earlier,
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: and I don't know we can play this on the

• 37:32
  Speaker 2: And she made an on air bet with whoever else
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: is doing the A's game. So we have to watch
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: that to find out. Anyway, she made a bet Brent Rooker,
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: I believe was up and the.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: Old slip of the tongue, the old slip of the
• 37:48

• 37:48
  Speaker 3: All right?
• 37:49
  Speaker 4: Let's go.
• 37:49
