  Speaker 2: What is up and it's time for another Cowboys storyline.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: I'm Nick Eatman and we are here live in Frisco, Texas,
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: and the Cowboys are We're getting closer and closer to
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: the start of the season. This is the last time
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: we're going to be doing this show at this time
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: here I think at eleven am Central Time. We're moving
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: to ten am starting on Tuesday, and Tuesday is officially
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: game week. There will not be shows on Monday for
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: Labor Day. There'll be people in the building working. We
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: got practice going on and we'll be able to cover that.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: But as far as shows, the shows will take a holiday.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: We'll get back on Tuesday and then everybody's time slot
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: it's going. We're going daily at this point. It's been
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: nice to kind of ramp it up, ramp it up,
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: just like the players do for preseason. You kind of
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: get it going a little bit. You don't, you don't
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: you're not here every day every other day. Of course,
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Chris Beam, our producer, has been doing it every day
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: but not not the seven shows or eight shows or
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: at once that hits on Tuesday, and I'll be going
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: at ten am thirty minutes ish. We'll go thirty bit.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: We may go a little bit more on Mondays and Tuesdays,
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Wednesdays and Thursday, we've got we'll be getting out for
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy's press conference. But Mondays and Tuesdays after games,
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: and as we kind of turn the page to the
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: next game, we may go a little bit longer. We'll
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: see how that goes. But as far as far as storylines,
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: it's really all about the same. The roster is kind
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: of settled into what it is at this point. No
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: big surprises here in the last twenty four hours or so,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: so this looks like what it's gonna be. And heading
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: in to the Giants game, I think Brandon Aubrey will
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: be the kicker. I think the offensive line. They added
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Sean Harlowe a center for the practice squad. He may
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: or may not be ready for the first game. I
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: would bet brock Hoffman is the better choice there to
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: move up for game day. But what you do is
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: you have a couple of centers there, So that's that's
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: probably six weeks worth of you know, three each of
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: moving these guys up, and then at that point, you know,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: you kind of see what happened. So all right, we're
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: gonna go to the phone lines. Last show was incredible.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: We had eight calls. Last show was It was amazing
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: a lot of fun. That's really what this show is
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: all about. When I can interact with you guys, whether
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: it be the text line or the calls. I'm gonna
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: throw the number out there, eight five five two two
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: nine seven. That's the phone line, the text line eight
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: one seven two nine zero three two nine eight, And
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: I believe we have a caller right now, Chris from
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Mississippi on the line. Chris, what's up?
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: How you doing me?
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: I'm great man, How are you?
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: Man? Firstly, is I got a I got an apology
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: for you, and and then I've also got a comment
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: that I would like to hear your feedback on. First
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: thing years. I have to say, when I first started
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: listening to Cowboys podcast, the first one I ever listened
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: to was The Break and I almost quit listening. I
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: thought it was you and David at first when I
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: first started listening, and then I realized it was mister
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: Ridgid David, I mean, not David, but mister rigid Derek
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: making everything kind of quirky for me. I just I
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: don't know, it's just something about how he does stuff.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: But well that's my boss. So I'm not going I'm
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: not going.
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: With you on that, but thing I can. I wanted
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: to also say thank you for mister Chris Bean for
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: being our MVP. We appreciate all you. And so when
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: you remember a couple of years back when everybody like
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: m Bard Deck and all these other people were saying,
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: all we need Dak to be more aggressive, We need
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: Dak to be more aggressive. If I remember, right, you
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: and Dave kept telling them, well, if you get more
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: more aggressive, he's gonna throw more picks. He's not going
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: to be a safe So I was actually calling to
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: call out some people to keep saying, oh, well, we
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: need that to be more than a bus driver. Well,
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: if you say that, then you cannot complain about the
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: picks that he throws. That's because that's the only way
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: he's going to be more than a bus driver or
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: have just a good safe quarterback, which is what we need.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: And that's just my opinion. Thank you for the great show.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: Appreciate it, have a good day.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Thank you so much, Chris. I appreciate the call. You know,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: those are my teammates too, so you know they all
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: have opinions. Well, we all have opinions, and I'm sure
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: that there's more to it than just saying be more
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: aggressive and all that. Sometimes sometimes it be more aggressive
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: is also running the ball to But you're right about that.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: When you throw more passes, you're going to get more yards,
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: more touchdowns, and probably more interceptions. I always say the
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: fact that, and I know it's changed then, but I
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: do remember when Brett Favre was the leader in touchdown throws,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: he also as the leader in interceptions. I think Babe
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Bruce had a lot of strikeouts, but of course a
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: lot of home runs. That's the nature of it. It's
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: what happens. As for being more aggressive, being a bus driver,
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: all that stuff, you know, to me, it comes down
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: to what's the best thing that you do. If you
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: have a great running back, if you have a great
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: ground game, then yeah, being a bus driver is probably
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: really important. Don't make mistakes if the teams are counting
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: on you to go make the plays and do all
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: the things that you need to do. Then certainly you're
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: gonna have to be more aggressive at times, and with
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: that comes a little bit more interceptions. Go back to
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: that first year of Dak rookie year twenty sixteen, really
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: didn't throw a lot of picks. They were running the ball.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: I mean, Zeke was was doing his thing and it
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: was it was a great offense there. Jason Witten was
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: was was kind of a security blanket, so and Dak
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: didn't have to do a lot of forcing and he didn't,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: you know, didn't throw a lot of interceptions. But as
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: time has gone on and they've needed him to be
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: more of that play. Sometimes you make plays for both teams.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: It happens. But you're right that the Cowboys need to
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: get to the point where they can give him some
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: help where he doesn't have to do everything. All right,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: we're gonna go back to the phone nine again. We've
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: got Ernest though from Washington State. Washington State. What's that man?
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: Hey, just quick question. You've been doing this for a
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: long time. You watched a lot of different different offensive
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: coordinators with the Cowboys. I'm just wondering what do you
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: expect to see different Week one against the Giants and
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: or Brian Schottenheimer as oppose to what we've been seeing
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: in your staff from Kellmore and guys like that, like
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: Jason Garrett, that type of style offense.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna hold on before you hang up,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask you. I'm gonna ask you a follow
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: up to your question. What do you want to see more?
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: What?
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: What do you like to see? What do you think
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: that you would like to see differently out of this offense?
• 6:50
  Speaker 5: So something that I'm kind of looking for is that
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: situational Well, I know this is going to tie to
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: Mike McCarthy's play calling, but I really want to see
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: more options for like they the play acts and I
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: know we did some play action under Kellen Moore and
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: it was pretty spotty, But I'm just looking for something
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: a little like just let Dak kind of go a
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: little bit, Let let him do what he's comfortable with.
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: And I could be wrong here, but I'm wondering, like
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: if under kell And it was like, Okay, this is
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: my system, this is what the players are going to do.
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: I'm wondering if under shot and I'm er if he's
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: going to put in things about he knows that Dak likes.
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: He knows that, Okay, Dak likes to do this, or
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: that I'm going to implement that in the offense to
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: let McCarthy call.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: That, Yeah, that's that's always key. And we appreciate the
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: call there, Thank you. And I'm glad you could kind
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: of throw that part in there too, because because that's
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: what I'm I'm interested to see. I mean, I have opinions,
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: but I want to hear y'all's opinions as well. I Mean,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: there was something behind the question there about what do
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: we want to see? And and for me, it's it's
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: I want to see them utilize their their speed and
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: and and I love what I've seen in training camp
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: as far as the width of the of the and
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: using all of it. They they really do a nice
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: job of kind of getting these guys in space. That
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: was my biggest thing about last season when they lost
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: to the forty nine ers is they did not have
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: enough playmakers. They just couldn't compete with that aggressive defense
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: in San Francisco. It was just CD at the end
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: of the game, and they they he did a nice job,
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: but they doubled him and there was no other running
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: back threat and now with the speed, I think Cooks
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: adds a lot. I think Gallup is better than he was.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Tolbert could maybe be that guy. You've got Pollard, you've
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: got Deuce. I think that you've got Turpin. I don't
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: want to forget him. I think Turpin's speed can really help.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: So that's what I want to see is I want
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: to see them get the ball in space and you know,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: easy quick throws in the flat, and see if these
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: guys can go make plays on their own, because if
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: they can do that, that'll open up the middle and
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: opens up the running game. Back to the calls, we
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: got another. We got Tim in Dallas. What's up, Nick?
• 8:58
  Speaker 7: How you do it?
• 8:59
  Speaker 8: Sir?
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: I'm good man. For a second, I thought it might
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: be my dad. My dad, he lives in Dallas and
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: his name's Tim, So I was just like, oh what, yeah,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: but I don't think so what's up?
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: Though?
• 9:09
  Speaker 7: Funny story before I get to my question about Hunter Libkey.
• 9:12
  Speaker 7: I was at the Arkansas Texas game in twenty twenty
• 9:17
  Speaker 7: one in Fayetteville. Oh yeah, I'm a Texas crad and
• 9:20
  Speaker 7: I kind of thought, I wonder, Yeah, I know, it's
• 9:22
  Speaker 7: been terrible decade, but I kind of thought, I wonder
• 9:27
  Speaker 7: Nick's here. So we were walking around the tailgates and
• 9:29
  Speaker 7: then we're going to head the game, and funny enough,
• 9:32
  Speaker 7: I ran into Jerry, Stephen and Shy and they saw
• 9:37
  Speaker 7: me with my text shirt on. They kind of gave
• 9:39
  Speaker 7: me a frown, so I said, you know what, I'm
• 9:40
  Speaker 7: going to keep walking.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. I was there, and I think I
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: have a picture on Twitter or something that that I'm
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: on the field and with the other fans that stormed
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: the field there, and it was like a lot of
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: people were asking, you know what, what's your thoughts, And
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: I was like, here's the picture, just to tell you
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: how how great it is and what my feeling is like.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: That was one of my favorite games of all time,
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: just because you know, and it's and it's nothing against
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: Texas I have. I really don't have disrespect for Texas.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Of course, you know, I got people here in the
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: in the in the building, big Longhorn fans, But I
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: think it's more of a credit to them in the university.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: When you beat Texas, you know, it's always a big deal,
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: regardless of they're at the top or not. So that
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: was a great way for me.
• 10:28
  Speaker 7: I love that it's back. I've gone down you know
• 10:30
  Speaker 7: memory lane, the Randy Petil catch against Arkansas in sixty nine,
• 10:34
  Speaker 7: you know, Coach Burials against Coach Royal. I mean, it's
• 10:38
  Speaker 7: a fantastic robbery. And I think we're all just blessed
• 10:42
  Speaker 7: again in our lifetime, be renewed. And I knew Texas
• 10:45
  Speaker 7: was in Not to belabor the point or go off
• 10:47
  Speaker 7: on a tangent, but I knew Texas was in trouble
• 10:50
  Speaker 7: because we got there Friday morning and we hung around
• 10:53
  Speaker 7: campus and then Friday nights people were just off the
• 10:57
  Speaker 7: rails pep rallies. I was like, oh my god, just
• 11:00
  Speaker 7: walked into a war zone, and sure enough we got
• 11:03
  Speaker 7: Oh my gosh.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: It was yeah, but it'll be It'll be fun. That
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: was That was a fun experience for me. I bet
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: so well.
• 11:10
  Speaker 7: My question though, for the Cowboys and for you, I
• 11:13
  Speaker 7: know McCarthy has had experience using a fullback in the past.
• 11:17
  Speaker 7: I think John Coon from Green Bay is a prime example.
• 11:20
  Speaker 7: He's a fan favorite, but he was also I think
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: he was quite the utility and I'm just wondering. I know,
• 11:25
  Speaker 7: you know, Hunter Libke's this kid from North Dakota State unheralded,
• 11:29
  Speaker 7: but he's kind of a cult hero. I mean, is
• 11:31
  Speaker 7: he just a preseason kind of flame or do you
• 11:34
  Speaker 7: think he has a role with his team?
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Well, I think I don't think you keep Thanks for
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: the call. I appreciate it, and good luck to your
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: your team's uh this uh this week, we need it.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: We need yeah, well maybe not against Rice, but but
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: you will you know, you'll definitely need to going into
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: the SEC. All right. Going back to the fullback question,
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: I don't think they keep players on the roster for
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: just preseason flashes and and and things like that. I
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: think that there is a role that they see for him,
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: and and and I think it's very similar to what
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: you mentioned about Kohn in Green Bay, a utility guy.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: He'll he'll grow into that a little bit more. What
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: I was told about him is really smart player. And
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: so when it starts there, when you got a guy
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: that knows knows what we're doing here, knows you know,
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: how how to play special teams, knows the offense, understands
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: different positions, smart enough to pick up other spots on
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: the field than that, he'll continue to grow. So I
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: think there's a role for him. I was a little
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: surprised that he made the team. I was actutely surprised
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: because he hadn't done a whole lot before that. Even
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: the Seattle game, he was kind of like hard to
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: stay on his feet. He just he just didn't seem
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: like he really was ready for it. Had a nice
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: game and in the preseason finale, and I think that
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: they have a vision for him. So I think it's
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: more than just what they've seen. It's more about what
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: they think he can do. I'm sticking with the calls.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: If I hear a call in my ear, I'm going
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: to the calls, so I know the text lines are there.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: We're gonna get to it, but I'm gonna keep the
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: calls and the lines open. So we've got Lex in Pennsylvania.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: What's up? Lex?
• 13:09
  Speaker 7: What's going on?
• 13:10
  Speaker 9: Nick?
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you, appreciate.
• 13:14
  Speaker 9: It's the great.
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: I just wanted to know who on the defense, other
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: than your normal names, Micah Diggs, who on the defense.
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: Needs to step up a lot for our defense to
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: take the next level.
• 13:29
  Speaker 8: That's that's.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: I think. I think guys that can step up a lot,
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: you know, and he wasn't here last year, so it's
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: hard to say step up. But Stefan Gilmore, the better
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: that he is, the better Digs is going to be.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: And so the guys you just mentioned, you know you
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: you you're you're passing them, right, Diggs Micah. It's the
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: guys on the other side. If they can do what
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: they need to do, If Gilmour can be the corner
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: that they expect him to be, if Tank Lawrence, Dawrence
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: arms Strong, those guys can rush from the other side
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: and do what they need to do, that's only going
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: to allow the two that you mentioned to be better
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: and be all world like we think they're going to be.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: And so that's the key for me. And also the
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: middle inside guys Osa Hankins, Mazzie Smith. You can shore
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: that up. They couldn't beat the Eagles in that game
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: in Philly last year because they couldn't stop the run. Yeah,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: mikeh was doing his thing from the outside, but they
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: kind of controlled that and they could not stop the run.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: Get that shored up. There's not a football game tonight
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: anywhere in the United States on Friday ninth that if
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: the team doesn't stop the run, they're probably not gonna win.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: That's Friday Night high School. That's tomorrow's college games, and
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: that's every Sunday as well. You have to stop the middle,
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: so I would say the guys opposite of your stars
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: and also the middle inside. Before we take a break.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: We'll go one more phone call here before we're going
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: to take our first break. Who we got on the line.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: We got Jake in south Lake? What's up?
• 15:01
  Speaker 7: What Nick?
• 15:01
  Speaker 9: How you're doing today?
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: Man?
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Happy Friday, Thank you. Happy Friday to you as well.
• 15:06
  Speaker 10: Hey, I just wanted to get your thoughts on a
• 15:09
  Speaker 10: few matchups next week that you're most looking forward to.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: And we're talking. I love it, we're talking about we're
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: close enough to talk matchups. I love it. Sorry, go ahead, well, well,
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: whether you're excited or whether it brings you some anxiety,
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm I'm personally looking forward to Lawrence Hirsus Martin.
• 15:26
  Speaker 10: That's always a good matchup. I'm also really interested to
• 15:30
  Speaker 10: see what c d and Brandon Cooks do those corners.
• 15:33
  Speaker 10: Dori Jackson, Deyonty Banks. I just want to get an idea.
• 15:37
  Speaker 10: I'm a little worried uh at linebacker. Obviously Take one
• 15:44
  Speaker 10: is going to be a hell of a matchup there,
• 15:45
  Speaker 10: but I just want to get your idea, you know,
• 15:47
  Speaker 10: one matchup that you're really looking forward to watching and
• 15:50
  Speaker 10: one that kind of makes you a little nervous.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: I'll hang up and listen.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: Uh, thank you for the call. You know it's I'm
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: not gonna lie. I haven't got haven't turned it straight
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: to the Giants just yet, as far as you know,
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: you kind of know what they have a little bit
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: and always and always kind of know what type of
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: game it's gonna be. And and you know it's it's
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: a it's a cop out answer, but it's always one
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: of the right answers. Is right there in the center,
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: like you, Like you mentioned Dexter Lawrence, Uh how he's
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: a great player. He really his and and and he
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: can kind of control things in the in the middle
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: for them, you know, having Zach Martin obviously helps. And
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: Tyler Biadish and Tyler Smith. I'd like to see what
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: what what you know they can do on the interier
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: there with that push. So that's kind of where where
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: to be where it'll start. You you talked about the linebackers.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: You know, let's not forget Daniel Jones. It can be
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: elusive and and it's not just Barkley. Daniel Jones can
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: do some things with with his feet, and and that
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: has that has plagued the Cowboys the last few years.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: Sometimes when you're over aggressive, it creates running lanes. And
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: that's where I think that that you know, third and nine,
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: you think you're about to get off the field, and
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: then you let the quarterback run for fifteen yards and
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: they move the sticks, and so that right there, I
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: think is keeping containment on Daniel Jones and not just
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: worried about the weapons that they have, because he can
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: be a weapon with his legs as well. And then
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: obviously the middle on the inside is always going to
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: be a key, and I think it definitely will be
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: against the Giants aggressive defense. All Right, we're going to
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: take a break here on Cowboys storyline. Will be right back.
• 17:28

• 19:38
  Speaker 2: Eatman here. We're getting the second half of the show.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: A lot of questions, a lot of calls, a lot
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: of texts in here. I'm gonna grab a text real quick. Here.
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: This is from Chris from WF I'm gonna say that's
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: which stult falls. I think he called the show last week.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: Could be wake for us? Probably what taf falls? What
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: is up? Chris? His question is a little worried about linebacker,
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: he said. With Overshown injured for the season, the linebacker's
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: depth chart looks thin. Could the team look for anyone else.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: You're always looking for other people. But just remember this
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: about linebacker and they play at four to three. You
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: don't just have You don't need six linebackers just because
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: you play it for three, because the linebackers don't stay
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: on the field that much. And they're gonna use jay
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Ron Curse. When Donovan Wilson gets healthy, they're gonna use
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: him some. I think one Ye Thomas is gonna get also,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Marquise Bell forgot his name for a second. Just those
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: guys are They're gonna be playing a lot in there.
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: So you have your linebackers. I don't think it's gonna
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: be that much of an issue. I think that they'll
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: probably look for some help, as you know, from anybody
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: if you really need it if there's an injury. But
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: I think the way that dan Quinn wants to play,
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: they're gonna probably go a little bit lighter there as
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: far as size wise. When they get to the nickel
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: dine packages and really try to use more speed. There's
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: so many running quarterbacks these days that and tied in
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: that that could really hurt you. I think they're more
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: worried about that type of stuff. Than they are going
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: up against guys, you know, trying to run the ball
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: at them and really hurting them that way. I think
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: that's why you're going to see them go for speed
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: more than size. All right, back to the phone line,
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Bob from Rio Grand Valley.
• 21:17
  Speaker 8: Bob, what's up, hey, Nick, Congratulations on the news show
• 21:21
  Speaker 8: you it's great.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: Thank you, love it for Matt, Thank you having fun
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: with it.
• 21:26
  Speaker 8: I bet I'm hyped about this year big time. Okay,
• 21:30
  Speaker 8: I'm going to tell you why. First of all, I
• 21:33
  Speaker 8: think we got a juggernall for defense. The offensive coordinators
• 21:38
  Speaker 8: that we're going to be facing this year, This defense
• 21:41
  Speaker 8: that a D is put together, it's just going to
• 21:44
  Speaker 8: be an absolute night mare. It's going to keep these
• 21:46
  Speaker 8: guys up late, pulling their hair out trying to figure
• 21:48
  Speaker 8: out how to stop it.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: Agreed.
• 21:51
  Speaker 8: The offense, I am not concerned at all about our offense.
• 21:56
  Speaker 8: It's many, many times under Kellen Moore we were so
• 22:01
  Speaker 8: predictable because we didn't have the number of weapons on
• 22:05
  Speaker 8: offense that we've got right now, this running back situation
• 22:09
  Speaker 8: that we've got, we're in the best shape that we've
• 22:11
  Speaker 8: been in the years. We've got a variety of just
• 22:16
  Speaker 8: offensive power in so many ways that we can come
• 22:19
  Speaker 8: at defenses. I hope that you agree with me and
• 22:23
  Speaker 8: I and I'm looking forward to listening to your shows
• 22:26
  Speaker 8: for the rest of the year. And I thank you
• 22:27
  Speaker 8: very much for having me on.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: Thanks, Bob, I appreciate that. Thanks for the call. I
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: definitely agree with you on the defense. I just think
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: the defense is going to be is going to be
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: outstanding and has a chance to be the number one
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: defense in the league. They just have dynamic playmakers. You've
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: got a cornerback who is really really good and one
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: of the best cornerbacks in the league in Trayvon Diggs.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: And I think you have the overall best defensive player
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: in Michael Parsons. So you got those two guys right there,
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: and then you have a compliment of other players that's
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: that's outstanding. I'm not there to say on running back,
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: this is the best running back group that we've seen
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: since they've you know, since, you know, in a long time.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: I'm not there yet. I'm not worried about it so much,
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: but I'm just saying we have not seen Tony Pollard
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: as the starter all the time for a whole season.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying he can't do it. We just it's
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: something he's never done. Even in high school and college.
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: He didn't do that Rico Daddle. We haven't seen a
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: lot out of him on a consistent level and induce
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: you know, we know what we've seen in college, we
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: just haven't It hasn't happened yet in the pro I'm
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: not betting against him, So I think this is a
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: This is a very athletic running back room. But you know,
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: and then he got in Hunter Lifkey. Let's not forget.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: He might be your short yardage back too. So it's
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: it's got some promise, but I don't know just yet
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: if it's if I'm there to say this is the
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: best running back group, but it's different than we've seen before,
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: and sometimes different could be better. All Right, we got
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: another phone call. I forgot the name that we have
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: on the line here, Chris. Who we got? Joe? How
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: did I forget Joe? And Stanford? My man? Joe? What's up?
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Hey?
• 24:06
  Speaker 9: Bro? So I have I've been doing mock drafts here
• 24:11
  Speaker 9: in the last few days and Jake Ferguson keeps falling
• 24:15
  Speaker 9: way down. Nobody's picking him. I have a feeling this
• 24:18
  Speaker 9: is just a feeling that he's going to get a
• 24:20
  Speaker 9: lot more targets than people anticipate, just because Dak really
• 24:24
  Speaker 9: likes his tight ends.
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: What do you think?
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think so Tell me who else is?
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: Who else is falling on the on the list there?
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: You're talking fantasy football, So who else? Who else is?
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: Tell me what the other cowboy players are doing? What
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: does the CD lamb typically go.
• 24:40
  Speaker 9: He's going in the second round of my mobs. I
• 24:43
  Speaker 9: have eight person team that I'm running, and he probably
• 24:48
  Speaker 9: would go in the first in like ten or twelve
• 24:51
  Speaker 9: team drafts. But I'm doing an eight team league this
• 24:55
  Speaker 9: year for mine, and he's he's going early second. Is
• 25:00
  Speaker 9: Pollard's going late first, early second? Those are the main guys.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gonna be interesting, Joe, Thanks, thanks for the call.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be interesting with this group. We just talked
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: about how many playmakers you have, and that's what everyone's
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: excited about. If you're playing fantasy football, it's not necessarily
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: a great thing to have all these different options out there.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: Some games, Gallup could have a big game. Some games
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: he doesn't cooks the same way, ceed'll probably get his
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: catches that Pollard will get his touches. As for Jake Ferguson,
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: I think you're onto something there. I mean, he would
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: be a guy that I would like to have on
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: the team. They are going to have multiple tight ends.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: But I just have a feeling as well. I've said
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: it all summer in training camp that I think Ferguson's
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: gonna be the guy. He's gonna have maybe fifty catches
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: or more, and he's got sneaky athleticism that is going
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: to get him down the field and make some plays.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: So Ferguson, you know, I don't if you're in a
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: ten twelve team league, I mean, you got to have
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: twelve tight ends out there. I mean, I think Ferguson's
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: a guy that would be on some rosters for fantasy football.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: And again, if you're into fantasy, that's fine, but really
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: it's all about production. Who's going to make plays and
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: everybody's excited about that. Going back to the phone lines,
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: we got another call here. Nope, no, no call right now?
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: I thought we had one. Oh sorry, Nick, Nick in
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: North Carolina. Chris is We've got it. Chris being running
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: crazy over here? Nick in North Carolina? What is up?
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: Man?
• 26:25
  Speaker 14: Hey, you just want first saved. I watched the War
• 26:27
  Speaker 14: Stories to last night and it was phenomenal, awesome job
• 26:30
  Speaker 14: by everyone.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: It was so fun to watch favorite story. What was
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: your favorite? We had ten ten stories in that documentary,
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: what was your favorite?
• 26:38
  Speaker 14: The last one with Deuce there watching the full thing
• 26:41
  Speaker 14: with and them playing that little joke that was That
• 26:44
  Speaker 14: was awesome to see. So that's always nice when you
• 26:46
  Speaker 14: get the draft your son and I just want to
• 26:49
  Speaker 14: get to my question and then I'll hang up and
• 26:51
  Speaker 14: capstfully listen. So I think I can share it for
• 26:55
  Speaker 14: a lot of the Cowboys fans who definitely share its
• 26:58
  Speaker 14: huge distained for the Eagles, but you know they are
• 27:01
  Speaker 14: have a certain respect for him for what they've been doing.
• 27:04
  Speaker 14: So I just wanted to get your opinion on going in.
• 27:06
  Speaker 14: I know it's a long season, a lot of unknowns,
• 27:09
  Speaker 14: but how do you think they kind of stack up
• 27:11
  Speaker 14: with the Eagles? You know they were champs and division champs.
• 27:15
  Speaker 14: I just want to see what you think. But thank
• 27:18
  Speaker 14: can't wait to listen.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Thank you appreciate that. Nick, You're right, I mean, you
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: know you don't have to like the Eagles. I mean,
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: if you're a Cowboy fan, you you do not. That's
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: just that's just the way it goes. And there's nothing
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: and there's nothing wrong with that. And and they certainly
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: don't like the Cowboys. They make that really clear, and
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: it is what it is. It's a it's a healthy
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: rivalry though you know it. You know it going in
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: and that's what makes it fun.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: College football is the same way. You know, we live
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: right here in Dallas and they play Oklahoma, you know,
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: Texas game every year and I'm sorry, people probably think
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: it's called Texas Oklahoma. Either way, it's fun just to
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: have rivalries like them, and it should be with with respect.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: And I guarantee you that the Cowboys are worried about,
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: you know, playing the Eagles and vice versa. I mean,
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: look at last year, just look at it. Nobody beat
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: the other team, you know, with both quarterbacks playing in
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: the game. Yeah, the Cowboys beat Gardner Minshew and the
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: Eagles beat Cooper Rush, you know, and both games were
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: really close and competitive, and that's why they're going to be.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: I think the Eagles the one thing to watch, maybe
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: not this year as much as next year, but we're
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: seeing it here. It's one thing to have a quarterback
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: that's really good. That's making a million dollars when he's
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: making fifty million a year. That cuts into the pie.
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: Let's see how you pay the other guys and how
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: the team is structured. The Eagles have done a great
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: job though with their roster. They draft well, so it's
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: going to be a challenge. I think the Cowboys stack
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: up with them. I think there's three really good teams
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: in the NFC, and I think Dallas and Philly are
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: two of them. Obviously San Francisco is as well. There's
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: other teams that they'll definitely compete, but I think that's
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: the top tier right now. So we're going to find
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: out how the Cowboys stack up with them all. Right,
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: back to the phone line again, Felipe in France, Felipe,
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: what is up?
• 29:07
  Speaker 15: How you doing?
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: I'm doing great? How are you well?
• 29:10
  Speaker 15: I'm fine. We're under every weether, but that doesn't matter.
• 29:15
  Speaker 15: I would just call. I'm just calling because I love
• 29:17
  Speaker 15: this some new show. I think, uh some Richard will
• 29:22
  Speaker 15: be the future on the online. I want to. I
• 29:28
  Speaker 15: want to. I'd like you to to explain to tail
• 29:32
  Speaker 15: us what you saw and I don't have to know
• 29:36
  Speaker 15: any worries about you as blocking.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 29:41
  Speaker 15: I just looked at his college states and he's not
• 29:44
  Speaker 15: afraid to stick his nose in there and he was successful.
• 29:49
  Speaker 15: Thanks for taking Michael, take care, keep the good job going.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: Thanks bye bye, thank you, bye bye. All right, that's
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: UH a Wednesday award from the farthest h to call
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: uh Felipe from France and I think the first party
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: was saying about awesome Richards just excited about him. And
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: then also Deuce not afraid to block, and that's fine.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: Not afraid to block is one thing. Being able to
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: do it is another. He's going to have to do
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: it well. And sometimes with that just getting in the way,
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: you know, getting in the way and not you know,
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: making sure that there's a clear path to your quarterback.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: But on the flip side of that is you know
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: you can you can attack if you want to. I
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: always remember the Eagles were really good at this back
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: ten twelve, fifteen years ago with Brian Westbrook. He was
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: a guy that the teams thought they could blitz at him,
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: and then what he would sneak around and they would
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: throw the ball over the blitzer's head and then now
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: he's in the clear. So there's different ways to attack blitzers.
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: Sometimes you have to get in there, like you said,
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: stick your nose in there. Sometimes you can use that
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: to your advantage as well. All right, I'd like to
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: get another question here on the on the text line,
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: real real quick, before we go back to the phones,
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: Mike and Houston. How does the emergency quarterback rule work
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: on game day? You know the Cowboys. It has changed
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: over this year, and it happened because of the forty
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: nine Ers Eagles NFC championship game where they didn't have
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: enough San Franco didn't have enough quarterbacks. Now, if you
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: have a third quarterback on your roster, you he can
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: be one of your game day active players. But instead
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: of instead of just forty eight players, that he can
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: be a forty ninth guy in uniform. The other two
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: guys are going to have to be injured before he
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: comes in the game. But still that's you could have
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: three quarterbacks active. So there's no reason really, as long
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: as you keep three on your roster, there's no reason
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: why you shouldn't have three quarterbacks ready and healthy to go.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: All right, back to the phone lines. We got Tony
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: in Atlanta. What's up man?
• 31:53
  Speaker 6: Hey, Hey, good morning's good morning to you. So I'll
• 31:59
  Speaker 6: be in New York. My wife and I coming to
• 32:01
  Speaker 6: New York for the game next next weekend, so hopefully
• 32:06
  Speaker 6: we can bring back a victory. But switching gears right quick.
• 32:10
  Speaker 6: Since I'm talking to the resident Cowboys historian, we're we're
• 32:14
  Speaker 6: about the same age, and our history kind of dates together.
• 32:18
  Speaker 6: So I've always kind of had an opinion, and I
• 32:21
  Speaker 6: want to get yours. I had an opinion that when
• 32:23
  Speaker 6: Parales was hired, of course that coincided with being cut.
• 32:29
  Speaker 6: I always felt like Emmit could have been like Parcels
• 32:33
  Speaker 6: was like oj Anderson when he had him in the Giants.
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: He came and og Anderson was great and they won
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: a super Bowl and all that type of stuff. Obviously
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: this team want to win the Super Bowl. But I
• 32:42
  Speaker 6: thought Emmy could have been that. But of course Emmy
• 32:45
  Speaker 6: got cut. So besides money, of course, why do you
• 32:49
  Speaker 6: think par Sales didn't want him in?
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I mean to me, that's an easy, easy
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: question to answer there, and usually they're not. But in
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: this particular case, and we appreciate the call, Tony. You know,
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: when a new coach is coming in, especially a coach
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: that has been this. This was the fourth team that
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: he's been to and he took over a Giants team
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: in the eighties that was struggling and obviously made them
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: a powerhouse. New England was one of the worst teams,
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: and you know, changed the culture there, got them in
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. Jets, same way, Cowboys, same way. You
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: have to change the culture, that's what you have to do.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: And I love Emmitt Smith. I Emmitt Smith is one
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: of my favorite players, and I think he's the most
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: valuable player that they had on the Triplets. They just
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: didn't win without Emmitt Smith. Emmitt Smith, so I have
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: all in respect for him. But at that time, you know,
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: you got to remember two thousand and two, he had
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: made the comment about a diamond surrounded by trash. Maybe
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: that was taken out of contact, maybe it wasn't. But
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: you know, he was kind of in a different way
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: in his career, and I think they looked at this
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: and par Sales was like, I've got to change the
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: culture here. I've got to have different, different guys that
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: are ready to go and to do it my way. Now,
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: it wasn't every veteran. He loved what Darren Woodson was
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: able to do. And bought in. But you know, Emmitt
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: had like nine hundred and seventy five rushing yards I
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: think it was in two thousand and two, so that
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: team was not really very good, and he was he
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: was at the kind of the end of his career,
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: so I think all in all, it's not like he
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: still had a lot left. Plus it was it was
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: better for Bill Parcells to kind of change the dynamic
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: and go with different style of runners. That's kind of
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: why he did it. Right there, all right, I don't
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: hear another call. We were a little bit past our time,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: so this is a good time for us to wrap
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: it up. Second second show in a row where we
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: went over time, but we had a ton of calls,
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: and I'll tell you it was so much fun. I
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: love talking to you guys. Ten calls. Is that what
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: I just heard in my ear? Ten calls? And that's
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: that's amazing for a thirty minute ish show. This is
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: what uh we'll be doing every day. So starting next
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: Tuesday at ten am Central time, it's our new it
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: will be our new time, but that will be the time,
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: and it'll be right in between really talking cowboys and
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: cowboys breaks. So right there, you've got, You've got, you
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: know a lot of a lot of a lot of knowledge,
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: I would say, in that three hour window. And then
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: also in there on some days will be Mike McCarthy's, uh,
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: press garments. But we got a ton of shows. Uh,
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: you know that that's just kind of the morning slate.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: We got to roll in all afternoon. Make sure that
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: you you tune into Hanging with the Boys with my
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: man Shane and Gross there back leading the charts, the
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: players lounge with the with the knowledge that you have
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: there with with the guys that done it, that have played, uh,
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: Danny McCrae, Barry Church, uh and that group as well.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: Girls talk, boys talk as well. And as I'm rambling talking,
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: the phone line rings again. So you know what, let's
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: take one more call as well. Brian in Kansas City.
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: This will be our last call of the day. Brian,
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: Kan't City. What's going on?
• 36:04
  Speaker 15: Hey?
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: Nick, good to talk to you. So happy that you
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: got the show and made it a fans show. We
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: really appreciate it.
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: Thank you appreciate that as well. Can you get some
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: of that success that's going in Kansas City and kind
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: of throw it this way and you know, see if
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: we have the Cowboys can can share in some of that.
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you what, person for person. It seems
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: like we have the same talent in Dallas. We just
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: got to maybe shake off the monkey on the back
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: and get it going. But no kidding, you play those
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: two teams and I don't know who wins the best
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: out of three.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Wow, that's I mean, that's that's that's a good statement
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: right there, you know, and I think Cowboy fans will
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: take that right now. So what's your question?
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: You have?
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: You have a question?
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just wanted to throw in the last question.
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: You know, we heard a lot about Micah and getting
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: his training this summer and last spring and bulking up
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: a little bit. What do you think is he? Is
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: he on pace? What's the over under on twenty sacks?
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: And I'll hang up and listen, brother.
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, thank you. Twenty sacks would be would
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: be amazing for Micah to have that. I it's it
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: was tough to tell at training camp because you know,
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: this team has had some some issues on the offensive line.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: You know, Tyron didn't practice every time, and even when
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: he does them, he has he has problems with Michah Parsons,
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Terren Steel working back in to practice. He didn't practice
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: every day either. He also has problems then can you
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: can imagine, well, let's go awesome, Richards Ball, Earl Bostic,
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: whoever they threw out their tackle. I mean, everyone's gonna
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: have some problems with with him. Now, how do they
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: scheme him up? I mean, how does our offense is
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: gonna scheme against Micah? That's gonna be a big, big
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: question mark. But when it comes to just able to
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: rush off the edge, he seems like he is on
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: another level this year than he was before, ready to go.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: I'm really excited about him. And I think, you know,
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: I twenty sacks. This is so hard to get. That
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: just seems out so far out there. If you were
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: to like can he get you know, that's still won
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: a game, and that's that didn't even get you there.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: So I think I've seen it happen with with where
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: I've never seen a guy go over twenty. So I'm
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: just gonna say under to that because I think that
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: they're gonna have to other guys are gonna have to
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: help with that. He can still be disruptive. I always
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: say this the term that the term horseshoes and hand grenades.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: You know, close only only counts to those two. And
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: I always have said, and pass rush, you should throw
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: pass pass rushing in there as well, because you could
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: be close to the quarterback. You didn't get the sack,
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: but you knocked them and the ball would you know,
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: four yards into the ground and now they're having a
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: punt and you did your job. If it's a pressure,
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: it wasn't a sack, but you can get close. And
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: so I think that's gonna happen. I think Mike is
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: gonna have an outstanding year. We got a guy on
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: the line. I don't want to just leave them hanging.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: So Costas, is that right from from New Jersey?
• 39:06
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it is.
• 39:07
  Speaker 16: Thanks for taking the call. I actually met I actually
• 39:10
  Speaker 16: met you once in Jersey, Oh enough to say hello
• 39:13
  Speaker 16: and stop for a second.
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: Oh cool man.
• 39:16
  Speaker 16: So I have a back in the day question because
• 39:19
  Speaker 16: we're so football stars, me and my cowboy friends from
• 39:22
  Speaker 16: up here. We're going back and discussing if there was
• 39:24
  Speaker 16: one play in cowboy history that you could change, what
• 39:30
  Speaker 16: what would it be?
• 39:31
  Speaker 15: Like?
• 39:32
  Speaker 16: I'm stuck on the second.
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: I need super Bowl, I need three plays you get
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: You're stuck on the second Super.
• 39:38
  Speaker 16: Bowl, the second stealer Super Bowl.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah with Jackie Smith.
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the Jackie Smith game.
• 39:45
  Speaker 16: But more than that, the bogus past interference, the non call.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: In the end zone.
• 39:50
  Speaker 16: So I got three, what plays would you change?
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: I got three? And and and okay, and and you
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: The first one is the nineteen ninety four NFC Championship game.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: The Cowboys were down twenty one to nothing, came back
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: and were fighting back into that game. They were down
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: by ten and Deon Sanders absolutely grabbed Michael Irvin's arm
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: at the five yard line. It should have been past interference.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: It would have been first and goal in the five.
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: Dallas will score and it's going to be thirty eight
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: to thirty five with five minutes to go. That's what
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: I want to see. I want to see what happened
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: right then. If the Cowboys could have come back and
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: won that game, it would have been unbelievable. They would
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: have killed the Chargers in the Super Bowl. I just
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: wanted to see. I wanted to see that pass interference
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: call and Deon Sanders and then see what happens the
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: second play I wanted. I mean, I want to see
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: the field goal go in in Seattle, the one that
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: Romo dropped the ball. And now now this goes the
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: same with the third one. Obviously Dez caught the football.
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: There's no doubt he caught the ball. What happens the
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: ball's on the one yard line? Do they score right away?
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: Do they go for two and go up by three?
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: Because you know they were down five, they're gonna go
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: for two. If they score, it's still got to stop
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers. So I haven't ever, I haven't ever really
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: gotten too upset by that one because I just they
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: probably weren't gonna stop Aaron Rodgers.
• 41:11
  Speaker 16: But well there was less in that game.
• 41:14
  Speaker 9: That's well, yeah, we come back to.
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: That, so let's see what But those are the things.
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: Those are the three I wanted to see what happened.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: There was still about you know, four to five minutes
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: and two games and about a minute and another one.
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: You still had to stop them, But I wanted to
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: see those three players are the ones that just pop up.
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: I love the question. I love the question. I'm probably
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: missing some, but those those three, for sure I would
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: have I would have liked to see differently.
• 41:38
  Speaker 16: The only other one we discussed was the cold Super
• 41:41
  Speaker 16: Bowl with the fumble that was overturned somehow.
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that one's a little shaky for me. I don't
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: I don't go that far back. I know that was
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: the one Halley was the MVP, and there were some
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: weird things that happened. Bob Lily threw his helmet one
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: hundred yards and all that stuff. I mean, every loss
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: is going to have that. I mean, I can tell
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: you if you're a little bit older, I can tell
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: you play that a lot of fans would say was
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: the one where Drew Pearson caught the ball. After the
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: catch Dwight Clark's catch, the Cowboys are driving, they're only
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: down one, and the guy Horse callers, they don't call that.
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, that wasn't a rule, but it was so
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: close Drew Pearson's breaking away. They get five to ten
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: more yards in field goal range probably to win that
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: game and go to the Super Bowl and probably crush
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: the Bengals. So you know, that's another one too that
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: I'm sure that old school Cowboy fans would would remember.
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: And you know, there's the list goes on and on.
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: You know, here's one more. I'll give you one more.
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: Any quarterback is gonna fumble the ball when Jeff Heath
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: comes flying off the edge and just smashed Aaron Rodgers.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: If he fumbles that football, this is the sixteen season
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: and the divisional round, I mean, Jeff Heath's career is different.
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: They fumble the ball, they get it. Dan Bailey makes
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: that field goal, you know, and the Cowboys go to
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: the championship game. I can't believe Aaron Rodgers held out
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: of the football. He did. And then of course he
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: makes to throw on the sideline and he does the
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers thing. But but yeah, those great seasons always
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: end in kind of a weird way. And so that's
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: a really fun question, well sort of fun. Not not
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: fun to relive it all, but but good, good question
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: to think about. And as long as my producer Chris
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: Bean is going to say another call, and I know
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: he's getting angry maybe over there, but if he wants
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: to keep going, we're gonna keep going. All right. We
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: got another guy from Washington State? Was it Shane? Is
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: that what I heard?
• 43:29
  Speaker 9: Yes?
• 43:30
  Speaker 17: Sir, Hey, Nick, I just want to say, the interaction
• 43:32
  Speaker 17: with the fans on this show is second to none.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: This is awesome.
• 43:35
  Speaker 17: I love to keep counting them out.
• 43:36
  Speaker 8: This is awesome.
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I agree. Actually it's fun. It's fun
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: for me as well. And this is this is what
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: I love to do. I love to talk to you guys.
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: When I see you guys on road trips and people
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: are training camp, people stop and say hey, what's up,
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: and questions like that make me go back and remember things.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, I absolutely love it, so.
• 43:54
  Speaker 17: Uh go ahead, Yeah to two real quick ones. One
• 43:58
  Speaker 17: was this Eagleton's idea, was it yours on this new show?
• 44:02
  Speaker 17: And how'd you feel about it? And the second one
• 44:04
  Speaker 17: was is I know Mazzie's a run stuffer, that's what
• 44:07
  Speaker 17: we got him, but don't you see him playing the
• 44:09
  Speaker 17: three downs just to collapse that pocketed for for the
• 44:13
  Speaker 17: guys on the outside to eat. I mean I threw
• 44:16
  Speaker 17: this question out a couple of times. I don't know
• 44:17
  Speaker 17: if he answered it or not. But anyway, thank you
• 44:19
  Speaker 17: so much for taking my call.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you. To go back to the first part,
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: I mean kind of a collaboration of what we're doing,
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: you know, just with these podcasts. I mean, we feel like,
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: I don't know if master's the right word. I mean,
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: has anybody ever mastered the podcast? But I mean like
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: we've we've done it well with three people, four people.
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: You know, we've we've done a pretty good job. We
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: have six seven, eight podcasts you know, in this this format,
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: which is a lot of fun too to have different
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: people talking and all that. We wanted to try something
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: a little different and so it was just it was
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: just kind of an idea that's been thrown out, yeah,
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: I would say like a year or two ago, and
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: this studio is actually just perfect for it now. I'm
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: not saying we wouldn't have done it before, but I
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: think it's just it's just the perfect timing to do it.
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: We've got a lot of people and a lot of
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: other shows, and so it's just something that there was
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: a brainstorming thing that's kind of been in the works,
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: and we said why not, why not do it now?
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: So that's kind of what we've done. And to go
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: back to your Mazie question, you know they have depth though,
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: I mean three three line three downs for him, I mean,
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: he hasn't proven that he is the guy that you
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: just can't take off the field. I mean Aaron Donald
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: a defensive tackle JJ Watt when when he played it.
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, guys like that, you're like, Okay, he's got
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: to be on the field. But but the rotation of
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: with with him and Hankins and and Osa and Gallimore.
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: You know, I think it's it's important to to kind
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: of keep that going there until Mazi or anybody gets
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: to the point where they're just so dominant that that
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: it's going to be hard to do that. But that's
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: for right now. You know, they they have so many
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: edge rushers that will probably slide inside, you know, like
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: on third and nine, who's rushing in the past, we've
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: got Michael one side, you're gonna have you might have
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: a Sam Williams or Dorance Armstrong. They're gonna put tank inside.
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: So that takes up some some of the downs and
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: the rushing as well. So it's a fun problem to have,
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: is who stays on the field who doesn't. If you've
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: got that much talent, that's only a great thing for
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: Dan Quinn and people that want to see this defense succeed.
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: So all right, that is gonna that. Oh man, I
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: try to I say that's gonna be the last call,
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: but it wasn't. Isaac from Houston, what's up man, Isaac?
• 46:33
  Speaker 18: Hey, Nick, how are you doing?
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: I'm doing great. You're you're the third last caller of
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: the show, and I'm not gonna I'm not gonna say
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: that there won't be a fourth. But what do you got, man,
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: I'll be quick.
• 46:44
  Speaker 18: Hey, just a question that I feel like draws from
• 46:46
  Speaker 18: like the current team.
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: Needs as well.
• 46:48
  Speaker 18: It's just some of the history you have from the team.
• 46:51
  Speaker 18: If you could take one Cowboys all great from our
• 46:54
  Speaker 18: history and plug them into our current team, what player
• 46:58
  Speaker 18: would you pick?
• 46:58
  Speaker 9: And why?
• 46:59
  Speaker 13: So?
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: I think we got this call yes a couple of
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: days ago, man, and I just I just like kind
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: of frozen. I was like Darren Woodson, I mean, I
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: was my favorite player of all time, and I think
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: he can play in any era. And now that's probably
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: not the best answer though, because the safety position is
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: pretty strong. I mean with youve got Hooker, Curse, Donovan
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: Wilson and some of these young guys too. So I
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: don't know if that's the right question. So let me
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: let me think. Okay, the wait, you could easy. You
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: can easily take like a kicker, you know what, and
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: just know that you've got like you know, twenty twelve thirteen,
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: Dan Bailey, that's gonna make all the kicks that would
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: be one. Chris Beam just said in my ear, always
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: a good one. Larry Allen, I mean he's gonna he's
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: moved Tyler Smith to a tackle position or whatever. And
• 47:50
  Speaker 2: Larry Allen and now you got one of the strongest
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: groups of all time there. I you know, there's so
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: many good answers there. You know, I take Jason Whitten
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: in his prime here at the tid end position, just
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: just a guy that could that you know is going
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: to be able to get you first downs and and
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: just be so solid in every area. So you know,
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: I'm taking Hall of famers here. But that's kind of
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: what the question is. What about you? What is your
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: what would be your answer to that?
• 48:20
  Speaker 18: You know, actually I think it'd be Larry Allen. I
• 48:24
  Speaker 18: feel like I feel like it plugs in with this
• 48:26
  Speaker 18: team though, like just offensive line. Again, we don't know
• 48:29
  Speaker 18: like it could be great this year, but based on
• 48:32
  Speaker 18: kind of what we feel like could happen in some history,
• 48:35
  Speaker 18: Like if you plug in Larry Allen with Zach Martin,
• 48:38
  Speaker 18: you've got centers, You've got like it it's just it could.
• 48:41
  Speaker 18: I feel like it could put this offense over the top.
• 48:43
  Speaker 18: Who knows, you know, Personalities and all that, but just
• 48:45
  Speaker 18: just hypothetically speaking, I would love to see Larry Allen
• 48:49
  Speaker 18: sure pluggingdo our line.
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: Well, and you know that's that's great to say and
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: great to have. But but you know, Tyler Smith from
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: a strength standpoint, he's not going to be mentioned seven
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: hundred pounds, I don't think. But but I think he's
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: the strongest guy that they have there. And he's young,
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: and he's smart and and so an athletic, So those
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: those traits right there. I mean, I'm not I'm not
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: calling him the next the reality even though he wears
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: seventy seventy three. But I do think that that he
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: honors that number, He respects the heck out of Larry
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: as a player, and models his game to the point
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: to maybe be that guy. So that that's all that's exciting.
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: You're definitely not going to put him in that category,
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: uh yet at all. I mean, Zach Martin's trying to
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: get into that category, and then he's trying to get
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: into Zach Martin's. But still, if you can, if you
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: can get close to the la you can get if
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: you can, if you can just be an ox Snard,
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: you know, like that close to LA's level. That would
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: be great enough for Tyler Smith.
• 49:52
  Speaker 18: Fantastic.
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: Thanks all right, thank you, that's gonna do it. We're
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: gonna do it. Don't tell me another call. We're done.
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: We went twenty minutes over, but it It was absolutely fun.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: This was I thought Wednesday was my favorite show. This
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: one tops. If we can keep doing that, that's only
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: gonna be super great for the fans, for me, for everyone.
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: This is a really fun show and I love that
• 50:13
