Speaker 1: dot com slash disclosures. So our lead this hour is
2:59
Speaker 1: from the Scouting Combine. It is my favorite story of
3:03
Speaker 1: the day and I have often had the mantra that
3:07
Speaker 1: bad sports teams make good talk radio, and the Jets
3:12
Speaker 1: are a wonderful example as they have been torpedoed for
3:18
Speaker 1: years on the field. On the field, so the Jets
3:22
Speaker 1: are bad, bad to the bone, bad to the bone. However,
3:27
Speaker 1: if you do a talk radio show, not that bad,
3:30
Speaker 1: not that bad. So if you didn't hear the latest,
3:32
Speaker 1: this is just outstanding. On the very first day of
3:35
Speaker 1: on field workouts at the Scouting Combine the Underwear Olympics
3:39
Speaker 1: there in Indianapolis, Jets coach Aaron Glenn became the leading
3:46
Speaker 1: man in a viral moment. And what was it? He
3:52
Speaker 1: was caught on candid camera. Was he picking his nose? No,
3:56
Speaker 1: that would have been better. That would have been better.
3:59
Speaker 1: Was he biting his fingernail? No, no, he was not
4:02
Speaker 1: biting his fingernails. He was caught nodding off OMG during
4:11
Speaker 1: the late afternoon workout session at Lucas Oil Stadium, caught
4:16
Speaker 1: on camera unconscious right there. This comes just days after
4:23
Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn preached from the bubdy pulpit in a very defiant,
4:28
Speaker 1: arrogant news conference, declaring that he would take over the
4:32
Speaker 1: defensive play calling. We talked about this in the previous
4:34
Speaker 1: episode of the show, I'm gonna run the Jets defense,
4:38
Speaker 1: and he claimed, listen, I had four years of success
4:40
Speaker 1: with Detroit, I have elite focus. Can't make this stuff up.
4:49
Speaker 1: That is a good jumping off point. So let us
4:51
Speaker 1: discuss the question, what's the signal that you're picking up
4:57
Speaker 1: from Jets coach Aaron Glenn caught napping on the job.
5:03
Speaker 1: So I've got Orcinman, mirror and stan Lee and we
5:10
Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together and we are
5:14
Speaker 1: going to attempt brain surgery. Unless we're not, We're just
5:17
Speaker 1: gonna have the gaba Ghoul and we'll have the Baba Ganousian.
5:20
Speaker 1: We'll dance around here and then that's that. So my
5:24
Speaker 1: first thought on this is that Aaron Glenn treating the
5:29
Speaker 1: combine like it was a mid afternoon screening a private
5:33
Speaker 1: screening of the English patient. Right, he was doing hollering
5:38
Speaker 1: James cosplay our caller. Hollering James is what Aaron Glenn
5:43
Speaker 1: was doing. Now, if I was a pr hack for
5:47
Speaker 1: the Jets, I was advising Aaron Glenn, I would have
5:51
Speaker 1: an alternative theory and I would spin this thing like
5:55
Speaker 1: spin cycle Regina back in the day. And the alternative
5:59
Speaker 1: theory was that Eron Glenn, head coach of the New
6:01
Speaker 1: York Jets, was not sleeping while workouts were going on
6:04
Speaker 1: at the combine. He was actually doing pest control. You see,
6:09
Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn is an Orcan man. He was sitting upright.
6:14
Speaker 1: And the reason he was sitting upright is because he's
6:17
Speaker 1: terrified of those gigantic Indie bedbugs, very worried about that.
6:22
Speaker 1: Either that, either that or those Indiana nights where all
6:28
Speaker 1: the coaches go out boozing. Finally caught up to him.
6:32
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know which one party hardy party, hardy.
6:36
Speaker 1: You know those coaches, they like to have a good time.
6:40
Speaker 1: This is not the greatest look a little tough, A
6:42
Speaker 1: little tough. So a guy who sacrificedmost his entire coaching
6:48
Speaker 1: staff to save his his tukis and he's got the
6:53
Speaker 1: hutzba to take a nap during the Underwear Olympics. Mister
6:59
Speaker 1: high energy, high octane head coach guy, and this my
7:04
Speaker 1: sugar us out there and he's he's taken a little
7:07
Speaker 1: bit of an app Now to be fair, I will
7:08
Speaker 1: be fair here. If you've ever seen the combine, it
7:12
Speaker 1: should be sponsored by Elon Musk's boring company. Man is
7:17
Speaker 1: that thing boring? Holy crap. Now there's some hard old
7:20
Speaker 1: dudes that you know, they get all turned on a little
7:24
Speaker 1: tingley because of the forty yard dash time. I always
7:27
Speaker 1: laugh because I look back at the history of the
7:31
Speaker 1: forty yard dash and it was just a test that
7:34
Speaker 1: was to figure out who could be on the punt team.
7:37
Speaker 1: And now it's like this, some you know, some crazy
7:41
Speaker 1: like means everything indicator and really, come on, come on,
7:45
Speaker 1: what are you doing here? But my advice next time,
7:48
Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn, you feeling a little down there, try Red
7:51
Speaker 1: Bull or rock Star Energy drink or five Hour Energy
7:55
Speaker 1: or any of those things. And I will tell you though,
7:59
Speaker 1: a sleeping jet. And I don't think I'm wrong on this.
8:01
Speaker 1: A sleeping jet is way scarier than a sleeping Giant
8:06
Speaker 1: Way scary because if a jet sleeps, everyone dies because
8:12
Speaker 1: the jet's gonna crash. Right, And I will guarantee you now,
8:15
Speaker 1: I know how this is gonna play out. And I'm
8:18
Speaker 1: almost never wrong about these things. I'm not always right,
8:20
Speaker 1: but I'm never wrong. So I'm gonna call my shot
8:24
Speaker 1: right now that some big shots with the Jets, the
8:28
Speaker 1: pr goons on que from higher up in management, will
8:34
Speaker 1: be drafting a memo to the NFL network screaming about
8:41
Speaker 1: professional courtesy. You cannot show our head coach when he's sleeping.
8:48
Speaker 1: You can't do. Of course, that'll be weak sauce. So
8:52
Speaker 1: my belief is if you brag about having a superpower
8:56
Speaker 1: on a Tuesday play calling superpower I Aaron Glenn. That's it.
9:05
Speaker 1: That's your power, and you're catching z's while players are
9:09
Speaker 1: working out on Thursday, you are not a coach. You
9:12
Speaker 1: will become a meme and you might want to hire
9:15
Speaker 1: Rick and Maryland so he can remind you morning time
9:18
Speaker 1: and all that. So just wake up. The Pinto means
9:22
Speaker 1: are bland, but they're not that bland. You get paid
9:24
Speaker 1: a lot of money, you know. Try to stay awake,
9:26
Speaker 1: try to stay away, all right, Furthermore, touch Chicago, we
9:30
Speaker 1: go Chicago, Chicago, Mike kind of town. So informed speculation
9:35
Speaker 1: says the Bears have received calls for a disgruntled wide
9:39
Speaker 1: receiver d J. Moore, and the word is, if he's
9:44
Speaker 1: not traded, he is potentially going to be dumped as
9:47
Speaker 1: a cap casualty, much to the dismay of Tree in Chicago.
9:51
Speaker 1: Unless that's not the case. So question, I want you
9:55
Speaker 1: to prognosticate, all right, prognosticate what the trade market looks
10:01
Speaker 1: for Bears wide receiver d J Moore, who is the
10:04
Speaker 1: star player picked up in addition to a gaggle of
10:07
Speaker 1: draft picks in the trade with Carolina for Bryce Young.
10:12
Speaker 1: So prognosticating this, the Windy City is blowing DJ Moore
10:18
Speaker 1: right out of town, right right out of town. Instead
10:21
Speaker 1: of DJ Moore, he now is known as DJ no
10:25
Speaker 1: More in Chicago, but ump bump, lame jokes were last hour,
10:29
Speaker 1: But DJ no More So the Bears have a new
10:32
Speaker 1: hierarchy and More is the odd man out. If my
10:37
Speaker 1: math is correct, I'm using malardmath, and I believe I'm
10:40
Speaker 1: correct here that he's now swimming against the current because
10:43
Speaker 1: Rome A Doonz and his very hands on, very hands on,
10:48
Speaker 1: Dad and Luther Burton. They didn't just zoom zoom zoom zoom.
10:54
Speaker 1: They didn't just zoom past him. They blew his doors off.
10:58
Speaker 1: And the problem is DJ Moore sucked any time you
11:01
Speaker 1: cannot suck. He had, I believe less than seven hundred yards.
11:04
Speaker 1: That's a clunker. That's a clunker last season. So more
11:09
Speaker 1: went from the main course and now he's the side dish.
11:14
Speaker 1: He's some wilted spinach, is what he is. And with
11:17
Speaker 1: the free agent market, that smells like a gumpster in
11:23
Speaker 1: late July, early August, DJ Moore is tempting trade bait.
11:27
Speaker 1: And you can do the math on that his contract.
11:32
Speaker 1: If I had this contract, I'd be celebrating. But for
11:35
Speaker 1: NFL wide receivers, it's not that much. It's chup changed
11:39
Speaker 1: forty nine million over two years. That's a bargain bin special,
11:44
Speaker 1: bargain bin special. Now because of the price tag Chicago,
11:48
Speaker 1: what are they gonna get. They're gonna like a mid
11:50
Speaker 1: round draft pick, mid round draft pick, fourth or fifth
11:54
Speaker 1: round pick. That's it. That's all they're gonna hit. So
11:57
Speaker 1: where does he end up? So I could have asked
12:00
Speaker 1: the magic eight ball, I chose not to ask the
12:02
Speaker 1: magic eight ball. I could have channeled being a distant
12:06
Speaker 1: relative of Nosterdina's friend of Noster Damas or friend of
12:11
Speaker 1: nos Damas and a distant relative you know the deal.
12:13
Speaker 1: But instead I turned a mirror, mirror on the wall,
12:17
Speaker 1: mirror mirror on the wall, the magic mirror at Sleeping
12:20
Speaker 1: Beauty's castle right there, Who's the fairest of them all?
12:23
Speaker 1: For DJ and the mirror did not stop, did not stutter.
12:30
Speaker 1: It named the mirror a bunch of musicians. It named Elvis,
12:34
Speaker 1: Johnny Cash, Billy Joel, and Whiz Khalifa. Or go the Raiders,
12:40
Speaker 1: Viva Las Vegas, the Titans gotta walk the line in
12:44
Speaker 1: Music City, got to walk the line. And then Billy
12:47
Speaker 1: Joel for the Jets in a New York state of
12:49
Speaker 1: mind even though they play in New Jersey. And the
12:51
Speaker 1: Steelers black and yellow, black and yellow, black and yellow
12:55
Speaker 1: for the Insers. Now the Mallard money. If you gave
12:57
Speaker 1: me a couple thousand bucks and you said, all right,
13:00
Speaker 1: you gotta put your money down, I'll do it. I'm
13:03
Speaker 1: gonna go with the Raiders. He wants to be a
13:06
Speaker 1: wide receiver number one. The Raiders have no wide receivers.
13:08
Speaker 1: They have no quarterbacks, they have no offensive linemen, they
13:11
Speaker 1: have nothing. They have nothing. So you go in there
13:14
Speaker 1: and you go play for the Raiders, or you're a
13:17
Speaker 1: wide receiver number one, and the covers are bear. The
13:20
Speaker 1: coverards are bear, all right, last thing, So we go
13:24
Speaker 1: down to the locker room of the champions of the
13:28
Speaker 1: NFL thanks to a very interesting two point conversion call
13:31
Speaker 1: that went their way and the charity. So more chatter
13:35
Speaker 1: out of the Seattle camp here that we're hearing that
13:38
Speaker 1: Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker is generating buzz. You can
13:43
Speaker 1: almost hear it. Yeah, there's some buzz there. I could
13:48
Speaker 1: hear it. So the Seahawks unlikely we heard this couple
13:52
Speaker 1: of weeks ago, or I guess it was a couple
13:53
Speaker 1: of days ago, unlikely to use the franchise or transitional
13:57
Speaker 1: tag on Kenneth Walker after winning the Super Bowl sixty
14:03
Speaker 1: in northern California. So now we are hearing that half
14:07
Speaker 1: of the league is drooling to get their hands on
14:12
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker. The third the Texans are sniffing around. Houston's
14:17
Speaker 1: gonna fire Joe Mixon. The Tennessee Titans have also been
14:21
Speaker 1: whispered as a landing spot. Walker is from the state
14:24
Speaker 1: of Tennessee. So the question, what is your perspective, what
14:29
Speaker 1: is your perspective on Kenneth Walker being in demand? You
14:34
Speaker 1: believe it or not. So I'm a believer. I'm on
14:37
Speaker 1: board on this. I am. Let me tell you why,
14:41
Speaker 1: all right, because in my life NFL teams in particular.
14:47
Speaker 1: Now it happens in basketball and baseball, but in football,
14:52
Speaker 1: to win the Super Bowl, you've achieved the impossible. In
14:55
Speaker 1: the eyes of many in that business. They have this
14:59
Speaker 1: erac belief. It's what I call championship residue, championship residue,
15:06
Speaker 1: and this is like Walker has been dipped in holy
15:09
Speaker 1: water at the Cathedral of the Lombardy right there. And
15:15
Speaker 1: my spidery like senses tell me that these NFL executives,
15:18
Speaker 1: they all grew up big fans of stan Lee's work.
15:21
Speaker 1: They like the thought of adding Super Bowl MVP, super
15:27
Speaker 1: Bowl MVP to the locker room, and it would be
15:29
Speaker 1: like adding Peter Parker spider Man right, bitten by a
15:32
Speaker 1: radioactive spider gave him super powers and all that. Much
15:37
Speaker 1: like the Jets coach Sharon Glenn, so Kenneth Walker was
15:41
Speaker 1: not bitten by a radioactive spider. Kenneth Walker was handed
15:45
Speaker 1: the Pete Roselle Trophy as the MVP of the Super Bowl,
15:49
Speaker 1: and that that has made him radioactive with success. That's it.
15:56
Speaker 1: It's like the NFL's version of buying crystals. And he
16:00
Speaker 1: was part of the greatness and maybe it'll rub off
16:03
Speaker 1: on us and why not? What the heck, let's do it?
16:09
Speaker 1: What do you say? Okay, sure, it is the Ben

Speaker 1: to the kop scoop on entertainment and all that. So
19:57
Speaker 1: NBC and I have a a good relationship with the
20:00
Speaker 1: people at NBC. I've worked there a couple times over
20:02
Speaker 1: the years. They've been very kind to me, and I
20:04
Speaker 1: like a lot of those people are good people over there,
20:06
Speaker 1: and so I'm not gonna trash them. But they're bringing
20:10
Speaker 1: back a classic broadcast for guys my age. March third on,
20:18
Speaker 1: They're having a throwback NBA broadcast. Throwback NBA broadcast. It's
20:24
Speaker 1: a San Antonio Philadelphia game. Now you'd have to pay
20:27
Speaker 1: me normally to watch a San Antonio Philadelphia game. That's
20:30
Speaker 1: a mismat. That's a mismatch. But I'm gonna watch it
20:33
Speaker 1: because NBC announced they are bringing back all the old timers.
20:37
Speaker 1: Bob Costas, he's gonna be there, Doug Collins, Mike Furtello,
20:44
Speaker 1: Jim Gray, who we had on my podcast. I was

Speaker 1: hanging out with him. He's a listener, by the way,
20:49
Speaker 1: the great Jim Gray there does a bunch of podcast
20:52
Speaker 1: stuff and Jim's gonna be part of this. Hannah Storm,
20:56
Speaker 1: Isaiah Thomas and PJ Carlissimo are all over for one
21:01
Speaker 1: night only. It's an NBC throwback broadcast. However, you know
21:06
Speaker 1: who was not invited? You know? No, Well, I'm not
21:11
Speaker 1: gonna name people that aren't here. Unfortunately, Steve Snapper, Jones
21:14
Speaker 1: and Bill Walton are not available. They're broadcasting behind the
21:18
Speaker 1: Pearly Gates. But Pete Vessi, Peter Vessi was not invited.
21:24
Speaker 1: And if you're of the age to remember NBC's NBA
21:27
Speaker 1: coverage back in the day, Pete Vessi was like the
21:29
Speaker 1: original NBA insider that had all the scoopage and then
21:33
Speaker 1: he led to what became the goat of them all.
21:37
Speaker 1: Woe who's now out of that racket? And now you've
21:39
Speaker 1: got guys like Shams and some other people they're in that.
21:42
Speaker 1: But Pete Vessi was a big part, big part of
21:47
Speaker 1: that coverage back in the day, and he was not invited.
21:51
Speaker 1: What's up with that? Man? You gotta get my guy
21:53
Speaker 1: Vessi over there to break some news. Come on, it's
21:56
Speaker 1: a bad job by you now. Pete very act on
22:00
Speaker 1: social media, and as I remember the story I was told,
22:03
Speaker 1: I believe this to be true. As I understand it.
22:06
Speaker 1: One of the first people that charged a decent amount
22:11
Speaker 1: of money to be on radio. It used to be like,
22:13
Speaker 1: you'd go on radio shows before podcasting existed, right, and
22:18
Speaker 1: you just do it for the publicity and all that.
22:20
Speaker 1: And then I was told this by somebody back when
22:23
Speaker 1: I first started in radio as a kid, and they said,
22:25
Speaker 1: Pete Vessi was the guy. He would charge a couple
22:29
Speaker 1: hundred bucks or whatever to go on radio shows, and
22:32
Speaker 1: if you didn't pay him, you wouldn't go on. And
22:34
Speaker 1: he was like the first guy to do that, and
22:37
Speaker 1: that was how popular he thought. He was such a
22:40
Speaker 1: big deal he could get paid. I guess a bunch
22:41
Speaker 1: of people did pay him to do that, but he
22:44
Speaker 1: was not invited. So Pete VESSI not welcome back to
22:47
Speaker 1: the throwback broadcast. Bad job by them. Let's go to
22:51
Speaker 1: the phones. We'll say hello to Eenie Meenie Mini Mode.
22:54
Speaker 1: Let's say hello do SpongeBob. Hello, SpongeBob under the Sea, Hello,
22:59
Speaker 1: sponge Bob.
23:01
Speaker 4: Well, good evening or good morning, Ben Mallory and Coople,
23:06
Speaker 4: Oop and Lorena.
23:07
Speaker 5: It's happy for.
23:09
Speaker 1: Yay, Yes, he's very happy SpongeBob. So, SpongeBob Bob, what
23:14
Speaker 1: are you watching this weekend? You have big sports plans
23:17
Speaker 1: this weekend, you know, some basketball, college basketball stuff. We're
23:20
Speaker 1: turning into March here before you know it, so we've
23:22
Speaker 1: got that to look forward to.
23:25
Speaker 4: Well, I do like sports. I like watching the NBA,
23:29
Speaker 4: the No Babies Allowed League, I was told the other day.
23:32
Speaker 4: But I do a really good impression of Shaquillo on you.
23:36
Speaker 1: Is that right? What would that sound like? Let me
23:38
Speaker 1: see you. What would a Shaquille o'no impersonation.
23:40
Speaker 4: Sound Okay, hold on, oh hey Ben, what's your good
23:46
Speaker 4: Shaquille and you?
23:47
Speaker 2: I just want to say that every little show.
23:49
Speaker 6: Being a former Los Angeles Flaker.
23:53
Speaker 4: I was listened to you and the Malam militia.
23:56
Speaker 1: Good job, and.
23:57
Speaker 4: What do you think was it good?
24:01
Speaker 1: I think you should stick with SpongeBob. I think you
24:03
Speaker 1: should stick with the SpongeBob. Are you not entertained? I
24:07
Speaker 1: love my SpongeBob. I love my SpongeBob. Big fan of SpongeBob. Yeah.
24:12
Speaker 4: Well, hey, Ben, make sure to check your email for
24:14
Speaker 4: next week because I wrote to a lame joke about
24:16
Speaker 4: we Man. So that's all I want to say.
24:18
Speaker 1: A great Okay, there you go, SpongeBob and Shaquille O'Neil.
24:27
Speaker 1: Am I being too hard on that Shaquille o'neel impersonation?
24:29
Speaker 1: Am I no, yeah, I give it a six. I
24:35
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm just shocked SpongeBob can do that many voices,
24:38
Speaker 1: the man of a million voices, the man of a voice.
24:41
Speaker 1: Let me point out, though, when I was around Shack
24:43
Speaker 1: a lot when he played for the Lakers, and I
24:45
Speaker 1: put microphones in his face quite a bit, and he
24:48
Speaker 1: he A, he mumbled and B he whispered. And when
24:54
Speaker 1: you're getting audio in a locker room environment, and there's
24:57
Speaker 1: a term we're not allowed to use anymore. When a
24:58
Speaker 1: bunch of microphones are round a person in the locker
25:02
Speaker 1: room and you're trying to shove the microphone so you
25:05
Speaker 1: can get the audio, and the person is whispering and mumbling,
25:09
Speaker 1: it is not a good combination. It is not something
25:12
Speaker 1: that you like. And to see Shack now at this
25:15
Speaker 1: point and him being on TV, he's very good at that.
25:20
Speaker 1: He's a good sidekick for Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith
25:23
Speaker 1: and those guys, and it's great for Shack, but he
25:25
Speaker 1: he was terrible. He was such a bad interview when
25:29
Speaker 1: he was playing for the Lakers back in the day,
25:32
Speaker 1: speaking bad interviews. How about Tim Hardaway Jr. Did you
25:35
Speaker 1: see this? Local sports media is dead dead dead dad? Uh? Yeah.
25:42
Speaker 1: So the Nuggets the other night, the Nuggets blew the
25:46
Speaker 1: doors off the Celtics late in that game. And you know,
25:49
Speaker 1: standard regular season NBA game, fine, whatever, blah blah blah
25:55
Speaker 1: blah blah. Well, Tim Hardaway Junior, who played for the Nuggets,
25:59
Speaker 1: came off. Then she had fourteen points and twenty twenty
26:02
Speaker 1: one minutes whatever. Journey him in NBA player Tim Hardaway Junior,
26:07
Speaker 1: and for some reason, the pr staff of the Nuggets
26:10
Speaker 1: brought him in to meet with the media to discuss
26:13
Speaker 1: his play. And it turns out that only one reporter
26:19
Speaker 1: showed up to the postgame media session, and apparently she
26:26
Speaker 1: had nothing to say. How do we know that the
26:30
Speaker 1: video has now gone viral? And he goes down, He
26:34
Speaker 1: goes in the media interview room, he sits down, and
26:39
Speaker 1: the Tim Hardaway news conference, it was roughly twenty seconds
26:44
Speaker 1: he sat down and nobody said anything, and then that
26:50
Speaker 1: was it. Yeah, we're all good, all right, we're all good. Perfect,
26:54
Speaker 1: there you go. He got up and walked out. So
26:56
Speaker 1: there that's it. It's a bat job by the pr people.
26:59
Speaker 1: I would say, don't you, but you have to know
27:02
Speaker 1: who's who's interested in interviewing people. Let's go back to
27:05
Speaker 1: the phones. We'll say hello to Poppy in San Diego. Poppy,
27:09
Speaker 1: you were just on Poppy. Come on, Poppy, what do
27:12
Speaker 1: you Poppy?
27:13

27:30
Speaker 6: Oh, I have good takes.

Speaker 5: But we're going on with the Picks. I'll have a
27:33
Speaker 5: good take for you to sponsor the NBA guys. Tomorrow
27:35
Speaker 5: we have the next for the Celtics. I got an
27:37
Speaker 5: answer for you, Leprechaun Dathon Tatum is going to return
27:40
Speaker 5: after March and fort but on the Celtics, I'm loving
27:43
Speaker 5: in Boston minus seven and a half.
27:46
Speaker 1: All right, I gotta go. Thank you, Poppy? All right?
27:48
Speaker 1: I told you, no, you don't listen to me, so
27:51
Speaker 1: screw you. You gotta listen. Okay, I gave you a chance.
27:54
Speaker 1: You didn't listen. It's a terrible job by you. All right,
27:58
Speaker 1: just listen. It's not that hard. And if you have
28:00
Speaker 1: nothing to say other than give some terrible picks, then like,
28:04
Speaker 1: what are we doing? All right? Let's say hello. Now
28:07
Speaker 1: we go to the mean streets of Brooklyn and is
28:11

28:43
Speaker 6: shoat vote for me. The five time reigning caller of
28:46
Speaker 6: the year belongs to me.
28:49
Speaker 1: You sure about that?
28:50
Speaker 6: Oh? Yeah it is?
28:51
Speaker 1: Oh you know, I think we're rashing. What are we like?
28:54
Speaker 1: Three two weeks away from the Benny Awards? Is that right?
28:58
Speaker 6: I believe we yet two weeks away.
29:00
Speaker 1: We're gonna have to get on that. We have to
29:01
Speaker 1: have some some think tanks, and I believe March March
29:06
Speaker 1: fifteenth and March sixteenth, I believe is the date for
29:09
Speaker 1: the Beny Awards.
29:10
Speaker 6: Oh yes it is. That's two weeks away.
29:12
Speaker 1: That's gonna that's sneaking up on us, and that's gonna
29:15
Speaker 1: be here before you know it.
29:16
Speaker 6: Absolutely, all right, we'll.
29:19
Speaker 1: Go ahead do this. Coop is sitting by over there.
29:23
Speaker 1: Is it true, Marcel, that you're gonna be part of
29:25
Speaker 1: the NBC throwback broadcast? Is that true? Oh?
29:28
Speaker 6: Yes it is. It will go like this shut by
29:31
Speaker 6: John Poto. He is the amazing announcement of Saturday Night
29:35
Speaker 6: Live over the years. Now Daryl Hallman and say to
29:38
Speaker 6: this why from the Fox Sports Radio World famous studios,
29:43
Speaker 6: it's Coop Scoop on entertainment. What camera action? Yeah, right now,
29:47
Speaker 6: and here's your jumpsin Cooper and.
29:52
Speaker 1: All your Thank you so much, Marcel. I also noticed
29:57
Speaker 1: the Madrashot nice the NBC NBC beings, all right, what
30:04
Speaker 1: do we got here? Cooping?
30:06
Speaker 3: But I just said, well, first we're gonna start off
30:07
Speaker 3: with some entertainment news. Actually, I believe we mentioned this
30:13
Speaker 3: on the Koop Scoop Entertainment. I don't know, maybe a
30:16
Speaker 3: month or so ago, Netflix was about to acquire Warner
30:20
Speaker 3: Brothers and all of its properties, and that is no
30:24
Speaker 3: longer going to happen. In fact, Paramount now Netflix bout
30:29
Speaker 3: out of the bidding war, and Paramount is poised to
30:31
Speaker 3: acquire Warner Brothers Discovery. So I think that's if you
30:35
Speaker 3: ask me, that's probably a good thing for the world
30:38
Speaker 3: of entertainment. I feel like if Netflix gain control of
30:41
Speaker 3: all that, we'd see a lot more movies just released
30:44
Speaker 3: directly to streaming. And I just you know, I like
30:47
Speaker 3: the cinema.
30:48
Speaker 1: All these media companies are eating each other though, that's true.
30:52
Speaker 1: It's wild. Yes, Jeffrey Dahmer's smiling from hell.
30:57
Speaker 3: Yes, Well, speaking of cinema, we're gonna move over to
30:59
Speaker 3: the theater. And releasing this weekend is Scream seven. That's right,
31:05
Speaker 3: the latest installment of the slasher franchise.
31:09
Speaker 1: Scream Keep you just keep making them, that's right.
31:12
Speaker 3: The critics don't like this one, but the audiences do,
31:16
Speaker 3: which I think is typical for most slasher films. But
31:19
Speaker 3: in this movie, the new killer emerges in the quiet
31:24
Speaker 3: town where Sidney Prescott has built a new life, and
31:28
Speaker 3: her darkest fears are realized as her daughter is the
31:31
Speaker 3: new target of the killer.
31:32
Speaker 1: Oh no, oh god, no, yes, I know, I said.
31:36
Speaker 1: I'm nervous, Coop, I'm nervous for the daughter.
31:38
Speaker 3: Nev Campbell and Courtney Cox make their return to the franchise.
31:43
Speaker 1: Oh thank God. Yes, so happy.
31:45
Speaker 3: So you can check that out in theaters this weekend.
31:47
Speaker 1: I am so happy, Coop. You made my day. I'm glad.
