  Speaker 2: called up their number two prospect. The number one prospect
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: is already up. He's playing now. Aj Ewing is playing
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: for the Mets. That's how bad this team is. And

• 1:00
  Speaker 1: How are you?
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: I'm good. I'm used to guys.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: You're engaged now, Gojo. We have some things we want
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: to discuss with you. The Bear, I think is something
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: we want to discuss with you. With television show that
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Mike Ye brought up an hour number one. Taylor just
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: started watching Breaking Bad. I want to get into Lane
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Kiffin and who's more racist, Mississippi or LSU. But it's unbelievable.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: What is Lane? What is Lane doing? It's incredible. But anyway, Gojo,
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: congratulations to you. You are engaged, and I am. I'm
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: halfway through your best man speech, just so you know.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: I was just gonna ask how it was coming along,
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: because that was my first thought in the moment, not
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: Oh my God, I've against all odds, found this partner
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: that I get to spend the rest of my life with.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Oh god, my mom probably somewhere weeping, knowing that she's
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: finally married off the last of her children, and the
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: one that I'm sure for her felt the most hopeless,
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: considering each of the other two have given her two grandkids.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: It's at this point, but my mind wasn't anywhere there.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: It was Oh, yes, Stu Gotts finally is going to
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: have his muse, his masterpiece with which to paint in
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: my best man speech.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: I can't wait, Stu.
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: Are you going to go to Gojo's wedding? Because I
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: feel like Gojo looks up to you as almost like
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: a mentor of sorts, and you're notorious for bailing last
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: minute for things. And it feels like Gojo would really
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: appreciate if you're at the wedding, But you are somebody
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: who is kind of hard to pin down.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm his best man. I'm not so certain
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: that Gojo has invited me to the wedding. I haven't
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: gotten an invite yet. I don't know am I invited Mike.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: I mean, oh, Stu Gott's yours is the first one
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: going out. Because to Taylor's point, this can go one
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: of two ways for me. One Stucott shows up at
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: my wedding, Wow, what an upset for everyone else who's invited.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Stu Gotts only in vain. And two, if you don't come,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: I know the gift's going to be there. Like yes,
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: I know exactly how the game goes on this front.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: What I'm excited for is if you don't don't come,
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: because I saw the other day you're posted pictures your
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: daughter's graduating. You've raised these young women, they're getting ready
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: to go out into the world, and soon there will
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: be no more lacrosse mitzvahs for you to use. And
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: so I'm wondering what the next round of excuses are
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: gonna look like. When you start bailing on.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: This, there's always more excuses. Taylor put it on the poll.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Are there always more excuses? Listen?
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Thank god Rachel got that extra year of eligibility. Oh okay,
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: there we go, So don't have it. Don't have it
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: during lacrosse season, all right, because I got, like, you know,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: twenty five thirty games to go here.
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: You know, lacrosse season is twelve months a year, Mike,
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: Just so you're clear, and I look forward to collaborating
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: with Taylor on writing the speech for Stu Gotts to
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: not deliver at your wedding.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Well, Taylor, listen, he is.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Mike mentioned the photos that I'm posting a graduation those
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: are posted by Taylor. Taylor actually wrote the congratulations to
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: m before graduating, and my wife said, Jesus Christ, will
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: you get a hold of your account.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: No, it's not happy. I just appreciate that both of
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: the mentors in my life cannot be bothered to run
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: their own social Stu Gotts has you guys ghostwriting everything
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: for him. And I don't think my dad has posted
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: something to his socials without my sister's help in a
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: decade plus. My sister's the best paid social media manager
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: in all of sports. I could tell you that without fail.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought up your father because all I
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: heard was you got the three of you just laughing
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: at me because I'm having computer issues. I can't get connected.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: I had to put readers on to read the update.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: I am your dad. I mean, what were you guys
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: laughing about?
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Mike, so I as you dealt with your first
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: bout of computer issues, Taylor and Mike, you were both like,
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: you know, Stu Gott's is the worst when it comes
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: to computer issues, and I threw out, my dad has
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: giving you a run for his money, And both these
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: guys understandably pointed out they've worked with my dad plenty
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: and while he's on the metal stand, you were the goat.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: So that's why we made the comparison that you are
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: Tom Brady throwing the very technologically damaged football to my dad.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: Rob Gronkowski in the all time lineup of guys who
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: can outwork their computers despite working in an industry that's
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: necessitated you do so for years now.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: Gojo.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: Where the difference between you are worth with your dad
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: and Stu Gotts lies is if your dad is having
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: computer issues.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: It will kill your dad.
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: Your dad will lose sleep over the fact that he's
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: having computer issues until those issues get resolved. When Stu
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: Gotts has computer issues, he just throws his hands up
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: and goes, it'll probably be fixed sometime soon. I don't
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: know how, I don't know who's gonna do it, but
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: something's gonna fix it.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: It'll fix itself. Yep.
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: For the record, I asked your dad last week to
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: come on and he said that he had sent all
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: of his equipment back to FanDuel and he didn't have
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: a microphone.
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: And I said, oh, that's no.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: Problem, we'll get you.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: We'll get you another time.
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: Not two hours later did he text me back and
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: go I went and got a microphone if you still
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: need me. Stu Gotts has needed a new computer since
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: we started this venture back in twenty twenty.
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and he has yet to go get one. Yeah,
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: but he still.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: Deals with the same computer issues and always says, it's
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: this damn Internet.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, yes, not the computer, it's the World Wide Web.
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: Really.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Yes, it's the perfect summation of my dad studios. You're right.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: Nothing has ever painted the picture more accurately than that.
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: Gojo The perfect representation of this is when we're at
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: the studio doing the radio show for Fox Sports Radio, Me,
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: Izzy and Stu Gotts are all in the same room together.
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: Stu Gotts is having Internet issues and he goes the
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: Internet here just not working, and we have to remind him, Hey,
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: we're all on the same internet.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Ye they got me shoved way back in that room.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: I'm sitting in, you know, the number one seat, and
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you the server.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Is not close to my computer.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not serving if the factor's it's a
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: good Internet connection or not. But the server is very
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: far away. I mean, I like once server. I have
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: no idea.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: I like to imagine Stu Gotts in twenty twenty six,
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: when his phone call is not going through, is still
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: walking outside and trying to hold it up to be
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: closer to the phone tower.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Wait, you're not supposed to do that.
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: Seek the high ground?
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: Can you hear me? Now?
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Guy? I keep moving seat the seat, hoping it will
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: improve my Internet. I remember three of you. Got man.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: I'm old, I'm old, I'm sorry, I'm lazy. Listen. Computers
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: are changing, I mean, and.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: Don't I get intimidated when I walk into the store,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: the electronics store. I don't know what computer to buy,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: which one has the proper outlets, which one has the
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: proper connection in the good sound that Taylor wants. So
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: I don't know what to do. I walked in there
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: several times and then walked right back out.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: Mike, I mean, see Taylor and Mikey. I think you
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: guys can appreciate this, like, because I used to get
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: frustrated when my dad would author similar replies to stuff
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: because usually, and I'm sure you guys have spelled out
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: exactly what Stu Gotts needs, and that hasn't helped the
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: situation at all. But in this current world we're living in,
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: we're every day there's a new AI bot that's come
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: out and some new doomsday headline. I'm realizing quickly the
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: tech curve is going to render me into my dad
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: and Stu Gotts much quicker than they got shown the
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: door by technology. So I found myself a lot more
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: empathetic because I'm afraid because I already feel like a
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: boomer when it comes to current technology.
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: Sure Jojo a great point.
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: I also know for a fact that Stu Gotts has
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: not walked into any stores yeah.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there was this time I walked in with Beyond
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: and I had two computers. I didn't have my best
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: by card, and I told the guy I'll be right back,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: and I never showed up.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, see, what Stu needs is he needs a
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: Sydney golic.
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: Okay, he needs somebody with full access to his credit card,
• 9:13
  Speaker 6: and we'll use it for her own personal games.
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: But at the same time, we'll.
• 9:17
  Speaker 6: Make sure that you get what you need, right like listen,
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: computer for you, two for me.
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: That's how we're gonna do this.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Yes, it Yeah, she didn't buy her dad anything. I
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: mean she has that credit card and she didn't buy
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: him any equipment.
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: I mean he doesn't have the technical issues you do.
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: I wonder why.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: I prefer not to think.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: I'll let Sydney reach out to your daughters and explain
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: the system how it works.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Yes, Gojo. Do we have a date on this wedding yet?
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Because who wouldn't want to go to a goldic wedding?
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: Of course I'm going to be there. Do we have
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: a date yet?
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: Do we know? We don't have a date yet, So
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: it's good that you reminded me of the extra year
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: of eligibility. So I know now to avoid that. So
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: as always thinking spring or summer next year. Because we're
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: in industry, we want to make sure that all the
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: people that we know and love were usually very busy
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: during the fall and the spring, are going to have
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: the time to do this. But no no date set yet.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: I am lobbying Stu Gotts and hear me out on this.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: I'm lobbying because I'm going to be thirty seven years
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: old in September, so I'm later to getting married than
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: the majority of my friends. And at this point, majority
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: of my friends, We've done a million weddings. We've done
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: the tuxes, We've done the wedding parties. I am lobbying
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: for the most dressed down wedding possible. If I could
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: do it in my backyard, I promise you I would.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to float the idea of renting a house
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: somewhere that's got a pool and having everyone just wear
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: bathing suits. I don't want people to have to rent tuxes.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: I don't want to have a wedding party who feels
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: like they have to show up early and do all that.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: Because I've done that, and then once I've gone to
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: weddings as a person not in the party and realized
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: how much better and easier life is. I don't want
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: to put people through that on account of me. We've
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: done this, I got the love, I'm getting all the
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: important parts out of this. I want this to be
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: a very fun, very relaxed party. And I realize as
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: I'm saying this now, none of it matters, because none
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: of this is about what I want. So I'm going
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: to just vent this all to you guys, and then
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: count on the fact that she'll never listen to this
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: podcast ever.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: Don't you dare dangle Brian Kelly in a bathing suit
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: in front of me and then go back on your word? Okay,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: because if Brian Kelly's wearing a bathing suit at your wedding,
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I'm there first one there.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: I'll be there early about that.
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: Steve Gott's I'll do you one better because my dream scenario,
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: like my fiance is from Louisiana. There is no one
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: on earth she loves more than Coacho, and so all
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: I want I want Coach O to officiate the wedding
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: all my man, I want Coach O in the bathing
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: suit at the pool after just dripping it like there's
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: a chance I get left at the altar, and I'm
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: still willing to risk that because the idea of Coach
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: O coming and being the efficient at our wedding is
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: too good for me to pay up. From a content standpoint.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, Mikey, why are you shaking your head? What's happening?
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: I'm just thinking about all the suntan oil that's going
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: to be dripping off Coach oh as he's trying to
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: read your vows and who can understand them? And I
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: just I'm trying to decide my course of action to
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: get an invite. Do I pressure Gojo No, because he
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: probably doesn't have enough say to get me there? I
• 12:22
  Speaker 6: Do I go to Mama Golic because she I imagine
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: she's gonna have some say. Or do I try and
• 12:30
  Speaker 6: sort of get in with the bride so I get
• 12:32
  Speaker 6: the invite?
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: And honestly, I think I'm gonna go Christine Goliic.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: That's where I think I'm gonna go with the happening.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: How About I pitch the Golicks a live show from
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: the wedding and they need you to be there for it.
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: How about that?
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: So Stu Gott from the were getting You're getting to
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: the heart of what I want. Yes, because what the
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: one thing in talking to everyone I have about their weddings,
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: their experience and the early information gathering. This shit's expensive
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: and so yep, I want to sell the wedding. Oh like,
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: I want my tucks or whatever I wear to look
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: like a NASCAR jacket, just logos everywhere. I want this
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: to be the goal the Golic Wedding presented by Stu
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: Gotson Company. I want banners, I want live ad reads
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: during the ceremony itself. I want the cake cutting sponsored.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: I want all of it. And I feel like you're
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: the perfect person to help me make this happen.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna help you make this happen. This is delightful.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: We're all smiling. Ear to ear tailors. Probably what's going on, Taylor.
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: I'm just imagining Stu gott starting his best man speech.
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: He go and then he before he starts, he goes.
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: Before I have anything to say, I just have to
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: remind you, guys, this is brought to you by ZIP recruiter.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: It's got to be a jeweler, right, it has to be.
• 13:49

• 13:53
  Speaker 6: Do you take this woman to be your lowfully wedded bride,
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: presented by the Subway Fresh Tank Hotline.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: And as I sit around and stare at these beautiful
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: arrangements presented by one hundred flowers.

  Speaker 2: Flowers, listen, we'll work out the kings here and we'll
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: get this thing.

  Speaker 1: Uh, we'll get it, like we'll get it the right
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: plan intact here.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: You need to just have a Subway Fresh tak hotline
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: for people for invites who don't go, and they can
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: leave a voicemail congratulating the new family.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: How about that, see she.
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: Got That's so good because everyone does that book where
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: people go in and sign that no no. We need
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: a microphone for the people that are there to award
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: their takes and then the cat. Wow, that's I actually
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: might do that. That sounds like an incredible idea.
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: What do you mean, might do it?
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: This is what we're doing, cy texts you. As I said,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: I am so I know it's so cute.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: This is this is a fun fan fiction for me
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: before reality sets it.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Yes, when you asked her to marry you, what you
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: did was you you resigned your right to ever have
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: a say about anything ever again. Okay, that's what you did,
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: but I am in I am so jealous of this idea.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: I'll consider divorcing Abby remarry How about that.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: It's just gonna divorce Abby, remarry her on the same
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: day of my wedding and do all of this stuff there.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: Instead of that. That's a double wedding.
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: Gojo, your car is going to be going away at
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: the end of the night with you and your your
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: new wife, and Stu Gotts is gonna remind everybody, all
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: right that was brought to you by Shell pennz Oil Performance.
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: As they drive off with their Progressive home and Auto insurance.
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: Pundling save.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Well, this has to happen.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Brian Kelly, so he's definitely on the invite list, right,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: I mean, there's no doubt.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you know. I'm gonna go back in the
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: vault and see how many of my old coaches that
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: I can get into one room at the same time,
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: because I feel like a table, you know what, I
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: want to recreate more or less, and I feel like
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: this is something that everyone sorely misses. Do you guys
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: remember the Coaches film old cast for the National Championships
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: in college football back in the day Larry Fedora feet
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: kicked up on the table, taking everyone through it. I
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: just want the coaches film room over at one table,
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: breaking down the wedding in real time like it's Game day.
• 16:15
  Speaker 6: Wow, the coach's film room mixed with Glazer's party for
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: the coaches, his pool party for the coaches out in
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: the owners meetings.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: Yes that oddly no one cared about. Go ahead, Taylor.
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: So I don't want to make any any promises, Golick,
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: But if I could get a plus one to this wedding,
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: I could ask for door, Larry Fedor could come home.
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: See because he was the star of that show, Like
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: Larry Fedora is the one name that I remember from that.
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: So Taylor, consider your plus one signed, sealed and delivered.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: Can't wait to see you and Larry fed in there.
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be great.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Taylor.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Do you realize what you're doing to the relationship you
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: have with your girlfriend if you invite Larry Fedora instead
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: of her? What I mean, I'm proud of you, let's
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: start there. I'm proud of you, but I also care
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: about you.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: First get him on the shop, then invite him to
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: the wedding.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, And what makes you think you're invited
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: to the wedding.
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: I mean, well that's what I was. That's why I
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: was kind of dangling the carrot in front of him.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: Trojan Horse made with Larry Fedora is really well.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: Executed, and it's Fedor in a bathing suit.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't even know what he looks like in
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: a baby's Oh he knows. I mean got abs for
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: days for wow. All right, Larry, Larry Fedora and Coach
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: O having basically like on stage like at the bodybuilding competitions,
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: the two of them just dripping an oil flexing up
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: on stage there.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Yes, can you guys imagine this wedding if it were
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: by a pool in bathing suits? I mean, who's who
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: is going to show up to Michaelden Junior's wedding?
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: I mean seriously, it could be Marcus Freeman could be there.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: No man, Titeo could be there.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: Boy, Marcus Freeman, you want to talk about a good
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: chance to be get left at the altar A five
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: like that guy?
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, the dangerous game.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: Inviting Marcus Freeman to your wedding is a very dangerous
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: game at a shirtless wedding which he only has to
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: wear a bathing suit.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, amazing.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: By the way, speaking of Marcus Freeman, I know we're
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: going to talk about the Lane Kiffin thing at some point.
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: It's not lost on me that this offseason Marcus Freeman
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: does the Esquire photo shoot, and the biggest thing to
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: come out of that is everyone's like, oh man, the
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: players are going to give him so much grief and
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: fall camp at these meetings because he's got these attractive
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: snl like photos that he took for this magazine. And
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: then Lane Kiffin does the Vanity Fair piece and all
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: hell breaks loose. We got Southern states and fan bases
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: fighting with each other like it is a very different
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: tone and tenor for these articles that I thought we're
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: just like tough pieces where you took cute pictures, and
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: apparently I was very wrong.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: You're funny, Mikey C getting the invite? What do you think,
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: Mikey Mikey S getting an invite? Little smoke break during
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: the wedding.
• 19:02
  Speaker 6: I will say he should get it over me. Yeah,
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: I mean, he's brought you far more joy than I
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: ever could.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine trotting, Mikey C. How to introduce your
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: wife to do your wife? Oh my God, you leave you.
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: No.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: See, Mikey C wouldn't be allowed inside the wedding. We
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: would set up a dumpster on the way in and
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: he would have to pick off and here if you
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: the famous guest there and do the smoke breaks. The
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: problem is he'd be nervous and he wouldn't do half
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: of them unless we had one of you guys out
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: there ushering the guests over to him and forcing their hands.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: So it's gonna take a village, but I think we
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: can make it happen.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: Oh, I love this.
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: Mikey C's plus one is just a cloud of smoke.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: Yes, a pack of cigarettes?
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: How about how wen goes he getting the invite?
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Gotta have hal in there. I'm trying to like he'd
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: be good too. I feel like we need to have
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: him organize the round of golf in the lead up
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: to this, because if we're doing it by a pool,
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: maybe like Palm Springs areas, so then you've got golf
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: out there, and I can count on how having all
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: the inns at the different golf courses out there. Considering
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: he's really, i mean really seems to be deep in
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: the golf lane now, so yes, I am I am
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: fully planning on leveraging that relationship for the best quality
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: rounds of golf in the lead up.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: See what are the keys is to invite people that
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: you know are going to come to the wedding, yes,
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: force them to say no, and force them to give
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: that bigger check you were talking about earlier. I did
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: this with Lebtard. I invited him to my daughter's Bob Mitzvah.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: I knew he wasn't coming, and I knew the gift
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: was It's a buyout essentially, is what it is. You're
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: buying yourself a way out of something you don't want
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: to attend, and you give more money. Levutar put my
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: kids through college. That's how badly he didn't want.
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: To go to there.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Bot Mitzvah.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: I mean, so that's that's my plan. And then the
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: other thing I stumbled upon the other day because my
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: algorithm is starting to point in this direction. I saw
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: a video the other day that was a list of
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: the known brands where if you invite them to your wedding,
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: they'll send you gear and gift cards. And so I'm
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: starting to put together the list of brands that we
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: want to send out the invites to so that we
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: get the free ship.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: It is fun going through the invite list, though, Like
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: you just write down a bunch of eights and then
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: you start cutting people out.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: You know, it's great.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: Tell listen, let's see that live on the air. Can
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: we help you cut the list out of the fifteen dude?
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: Honestly, we should make the tables live on the air. Two.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: This is like cut down today. This would be fun
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: for me to be on the other side, because usually
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: I was the one getting cut. Now we can all
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: sit here and be like the tribunal council and decide
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: who we're going to cut, and then be chaos agents
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: and figure out how we're going to situate these tables
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: for maximum drama hard knock skulic wedding.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: Yes right, yes, listen. If you're in worried, I mean
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: we are onto something here. There is a good at
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: each table sponsored by the way right Table two sponsor.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's not even table numbers, it's just your sponsor.
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: I'm over a bear.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: Yes, he's gonna have a beer sponsor, a liquor sponsor.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: He's gonna have all.
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: This is amazing.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: I can help you with that.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: By the way, I said. That's why I'm telling you
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: because I know you're gonna be the one to help
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: pull in all these deals.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: Yes, I'm on it, Consider me on it, and I'm there.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: I don't know when you're having it, but I am there.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: Let's transition here. There's no easy way to transition from
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: the wedding to racism.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: Depends on the tables.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: I should be laughing, yes, but Lane Kiffin doing what Listen,
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: No one could be surprised that Lane Kiffin left Mississippi,
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: took the job at LSU, forfeited his chance to become
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: a coach of a national championship team or a team
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: that went deep into the playoffs, and then when he
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: gets to LSU starts taking unnecessary shots at old miss.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: This is what Lane Kiffin does, Mike, whether you like
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: it or not, this is what Lan Giffen does once
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: he gets once he arrives at your school, he starts
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: tearing down his former school.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: It's what he does it.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: First off, what a great piece overall, But you're right,
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: this is the scorpion in the frog story.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: You can't act surprise when this is the case. And
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: I think, and when you read this article, I remember
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: when Lane originally left. There were a lot of the
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: people around Ole Miss that I think the reason they
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: felt so different and they felt so offended by this
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: is because they had been convinced through his time in
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: Oxford that he was different, that this had truly been
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: a rehabilitative process for Lane. He talked about, you know,
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: his sobriety, all the things that he had changed, how
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: he needed Oxford more than Oxford needed him, and it
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: seemed like so many people thought that also meant that
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: they were immune to him leaving for something better. And
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: in this case, they're one of their most hated, if
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: not their most hated rival, and so I think that
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: was the issue. But forever everyone else who now has
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: seen this pattern again and in this way, I don't
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: think there'll be anyone whoever buys into the idea that
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: it's going to be somehow different going forward. And in
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: this case, again I'm not even saying I blame Lane
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: Kiffin for taking the opportunity at a place like LSU
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: that is so rich in all the things that modern
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: college football coaches covin and because it's his prerogative to
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: take any job the same way now it is for
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: a player to go to any school that they want
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: to hear. But I can also look and understand from
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: the Old Miss fan side and completely get why, Hey,
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: maybe they thought it was different this time, even though
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: when you zoom out, this does fit into the larger pattern.
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: So stud The quote from the article that has all
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: Miss fans upset Lane Kiffin told Vanity Fair. When he
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: was coaching there, Kiffin says top recruits would tell him, hey, coach,
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: we really like you, but my grandparents aren't letting me
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: move to Oxford, Mississippi. That doesn't come up when you
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: say baton rouge. Louisiana. Parents were sitting here this weekend
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: saying the campuses diversity feels so great. It feels like
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: they're no segregation. That was the quote from the article.
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: And now it's coming out that lane Kiffin reportedly left
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: Old Miss because families were just overall uncomfortable with Oxford's
• 25:14
  Speaker 5: racial history lack of a diversity. He took issue with
• 25:17
  Speaker 5: symbols like the Confederate flag, the Colonel Rebel, and the
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: nickname Old Miss itself. What it feels like to me
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: is this is right message, wrong messenger.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it's the right message it's certainly
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: not the right messenger. I can tell you that did
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: Lane talk about any of this stuff when he was
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: coaching at Old Miss?
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Any of it? Do we know?
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: No, I know because and I think the reason I
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: tend to side with Taylor because I have seen and
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: heard from plenty of people who are closer to Old Miss,
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: closer to the history of the South, that have certainly
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: brought up the past of Ole Miss, the things that's
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: associated with and for people of color, how tough and
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: problematic that's been a time. So I'm not going to
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: discount the reality of any of that situation, especially one
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: that I'm unfamiliar with. But to Taylor's point, in this setting,
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: from this person, this does not feel like it's being
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: brought up in a way that is genuine and empathizes
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: with that plight, because it feels like it's part of
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: a recruiting pitch in a way that I think makes
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: a lot of people kind of pull back, And.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Bristle doesn't everything with Lane Kiffin, it's hard to believe
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: right Ron Messenger is probably the right way to go there,
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Lank It's hard to believe that anything is genuine or
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: sincere because He's always a used car salesman.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: That's what he is.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: I mean, essentially, Mike, he's a high paid used car salesman.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: What's off putting about this is he was talking about
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: how difficult the decision was.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: If all those things are the.
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: Case right about old miss and I happen to agree
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: with many of the things he said, But then why
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: was it such a difficult decision for laying in his
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: family to leave Oxford, Mississippi and go to LSU. It
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: shouldn't be that difficult if indeed all that stuff was
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: going through his head, And if indeed it was problematic
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: recruiting kids because their grandparents and their parents didn't want
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: them in Oxford, Mississippi, why do you leave?
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Why do he make such a big deal.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: Why is it so difficult for him to leave Oxford
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: if it did that was the case, Mike, Well, yeah.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: And I think that's what this article kind of does
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: a good job of hammering home is. You know a
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: lot of people have had the chance to interact and
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: be around Lane Kiffen. When you cover college football, I've had,
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: you know, limited opportunities, and there's been nothing wrong with
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: the interactions. Paul Feinbaum kind of summed it up, though,
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: he's like you're never quite sure exactly what you're getting
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: or where it's coming from. He's a tremendously difficult person
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: to read, and he's someone who, to your point, we've
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: known so much publicly and everyone's seen so much about
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: him for such a long time because he got into
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: the spotlight such a young age. He was the youngest
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: NFL coach ever at one point when he was hired
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: by the Raiders, and so we've seen everything that's publicly
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: happened with Lane, all the missteps on Front Street, and
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: so even at this point now you're never quite sure
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: because you've seen and enjoyed some parts of it. There
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: are like some parts of the you know, prodding and
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: online trolling and things that you look at and in
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: a vacuum go, well, this is fun for college football
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: to have an agent like this, someone who is coming
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: in and kind of making fun of the establishment and
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: ruffling some feathers, because this is a sport that thrives
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: on characters. And then there's some times where that goes awry,
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: and so it makes it kind of difficult to reconcile
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: all these things that you've seen at once Stull.
• 28:41
  Speaker 5: My favorite quote was from the Vanity Fairs Chris Smith,
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: the author of this anti Mississippi feature. He said, after
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: four hours of talking with Kiffen, I'm stumped. Is he
• 28:55
  Speaker 5: endearingly sincere or so full of shit that it's an
• 28:58
  Speaker 5: art form the ladder?
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: Multiple choice, Mike, those are your two options, your bait?
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: Which one you're going with?
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: I mean it's bullshitter, man.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, well, like to your points, Ducts, like every
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: college football coach to some point is a salesman, right,
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: Like that's kind of an innate part of the job.
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: But you know, there are just things like this that again,
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: like I've seen since this came out, I've seen videos
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: of former players talking about their experiences like this on
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: old Missus campus, whether it's guys that played there, people
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: that came there from other schools that played there.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, Mike, Mike, I'm certain it's happened. I'm not saying
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: that Lane Kivin is lying. It's just a convenient time
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: for Lane Kivin to start bringing it up.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: That's the all correct And that's what makes this feel strange.
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: No matter what angle you come from, and this is like,
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: this is probably not the person or the setting with
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: which having this componversation is going to do the good
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: that it could.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: Right, it's using race as part of your sales pitch.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: We all know it's a sales pitch.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: In part. It's a sales pitch, all right.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: Some of it might be genuine, might be sincere, but
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: you're bringing that into your actual pitch, and that's off
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: putting to a lot of people.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: It's going to be off putting to a lot of people,
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: and it should be.
• 30:17
  Speaker 5: Gojo the bigger thing from this story. I think September nineteenth, LSU,
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: I don't even know what I'm expecting for that weekend.
• 30:28
  Speaker 5: It's hard to even comprehend what that game is going
• 30:30
  Speaker 5: to be.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: Like, well, I know is just put the kids to bed,
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: that's it.
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, you remember what it was like
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: when he went back to Tennessee when he was at
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: Ole miss yep, Like they had to stop that game.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: That was the one where it was the fake mustard
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: bottle flask got thrown onto the field along with golf
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: balls and a host of other shit. But it is
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: going to be and I was looking the rest of
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: the college football slate is pretty lackluster like provided these
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: teams are forming the way that they should be. Got
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: to imagine the college game day crew is there. Got
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: to imagine this is the big draw of the weekend
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: and that atmosphere is going to be unrivaled to I really,
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: I don't know what to expect, but I expect a lot.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: It's interesting. Did the writer ask Lane if it was
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: so bad there?
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: Why didn't he do anything about it when he had
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: the biggest position at the school? Did the writer ask
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: Lane if it was so bad there? Why he stay
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: there so long? Did the writer ask? Did the writer
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: ask anything? Did he did he ask Lane anything? Or
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: you just let Lane say whatever it is Lane wanted
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: to say, without any kind of follow up?
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: Whatsoever?
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Well, Lane, if it's that bad there, then why was
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: it so difficult for you and your family to leave there?
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: No?
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: Okay, I appreciate journalist critics Stu Gott's work.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, I listen, I should be proud of this guy.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: And I don't know what I'm doing here, but there.
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, what he said it begged for follow ups
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: and Lane didn't get any.
• 31:58
  Speaker 5: I mean, just to be clear, are you asking us
• 32:01
  Speaker 5: what the article said just because you didn't read.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: It, of course. I mean, what do you think I'm
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: asking you? You think I'm gonna fucking read that thing?
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Get out of here? I mean, Vanity Fair?
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: Where do I get it?
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: I got I got lucky. I opened it up on
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: my last free read for Vanity Fair and went back
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: to check something and got Paywalden. I was like, a man, Well,
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: I just I'll do my best to remember it.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Yes, No, Taylor, I was asking those questions. I wasn't
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: judging the writer. I was actually asking those questions in
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: the hopes that you had read it, of course, which you.
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: Did it.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: Old Lane, It's just like, it's it's Lane being Lane, right,
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: can we chalk it up to that? Just yes, it's
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: Lane being They're all used car salesman. Lane takes it
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: to you know, he takes it out to the extreme.
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: And I'm not saying that's what make Lane, makes Lane
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: Kivin great, but he will stop at nothing to get
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: to land a prize recruit quarterback. And he just proved
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: it here. And so that's, uh, that's what most of
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: these guys.
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: But I'm with Gojo in the sense that college football
• 33:04
  Speaker 5: is better because it has these characters like Lane Kiffin, Gojo,
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: I found a quote from Paul Finebaum that I think
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: you are referencing. His quote is from fine Bomb. I
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: first met him in two thousand and nine, and I
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: can't decide either. Lane Kiffin is an introvert and he's
• 33:20
  Speaker 5: a drama queen. He's sincere, and he doesn't get enough
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: credit for his acting ability. What it's what makes him fascinating,
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: and it's what makes him the most polarizing code in
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: all of college football.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, yep, yeah, wow, Yeah.
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: It's he, you know what. Honestly, Lane Kiffen is sort.
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Of the.
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: Perfect embodiment of where we are at, like culturally in
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty six. He is a master of keeping your attention,
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: Like all of this is just the attention economy, and
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: Lane make sure that at critical moments you will be
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: paying attention to whatever he is doing.
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: You think the people at all Miss are hop set
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: with Lane kivid Like he could never go back there again, Right,
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: he cannot.
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: There's no way he was beloved there.
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: He's going to September nineteenth and without to be insane.
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: He can't just walk them around by himself anymore though, right.
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: Oh no, no, no, no, no, no.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: No no, not that he was planning on doing it,
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: but if he just wanted to take a stroll through campus,
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: he can't.
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: He can no longer do that, right.
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: Nolex Stutts. I'll put it to you like this. There
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: was a Brian Kelly went on a podcast recently and
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: was talking about how he's got this year off where
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: he's not coaching, and he said he wants to go
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: out and visit with a lot of his former assistants,
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: catch up with them, try and learn some things. And
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: he mentioned he's like, I want to know, go and
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: visit with Marcus Freeman, who he brought to Notre Name
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: as his defensive coordinator. Mike Denbrock. The OC was, you know,
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: in Brian's wedding, and so he's like, I want to,
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: you know, go back out there to South End and
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, I mean, I see no reason
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: why he wouldn't be welcomed back in. He knows all
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: those guys will. The dismount for Brian wasn't I think
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: the most enjoyable for a lot of Notre Dame fans.
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: I don't think now, considering where the program sits, there's
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: gonna be a lot of venom there from anybody. This
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: Lane Kiffin situation is the total opposite. A. The wound
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: is incredibly fresh and B. It's also just a completely
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: different tenor to this with everything that we've just mentioned
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: involved Gojo.
• 35:17
  Speaker 5: You're based in Los Angeles, and we need a Lakers
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: corresponding with the Lakers getting swept ear to the street,
• 35:23
  Speaker 5: what are the people saying about this Lakers team?
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: Boots on the ground, right.
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: Boots on the ground from someone who could not live
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: further from downtown by the Staples Center, Crypto, whatever the
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: hell they call it now, Boots on the ground. People
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: are preparing for their weekly visit to whatever Farmers Market
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: is in their neighborhood. Most of them are still ready
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: to complain about traffic at any moment in time. They're
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: planning a beach trip this weekend. There's talks of several
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: brunches happening in the West Hollywood area. So business as
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: usual out here in Los Angeles as far as I've seen.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: Just because in LA you have to have him as
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: our Laker correspondent.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, how many Laker games have you been to?
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: GoJ two? Okay, okay, done this year? That's two more
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: than us.
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: I mean I heard the get in price was like
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: fifty bucks last night. I could have gone pissed. I
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: don't want to drive all the way over there. Yeah,
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: so far right?
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: Gojo you you had such a great take that I
• 36:20
  Speaker 5: saw on Twitter. When it comes to this thunders Laker series,
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: specifically when it comes through the Thunder, I would rather
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: get dunked on forty million times than lose to the
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: Isaiah Hartenstein lit little floater that he does.
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: Dude, Yes, it's and it's it's so well crafted, and
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: he's so good at it now. And that's even worse.
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: Like I could understand, like you know, like Rudy Gobert
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: not the most offensively inclined big man, so when he
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: puts up a shot, you're like whatever. But the fact
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: that that little shot put has now become a lethal
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: weapon that Isaiah Hartenstein uses, I would be furious. It
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: is so demeaning and descending as a shot.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, Micha, are we're getting carried away as Nick fans.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: When I say I want Oklahoma City, I'm not going
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: to be satisfied unless we play Oklahoma City and beat
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: Oklahoma City in the NBA Finals.
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: Terrible idea. What are you doing?
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: I no, so.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: Listen, I'll put it to you like this.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we know.
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: I famously lost to Alabama on that twenty twelfth title game. Yeah,
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: and there was you know, Alabama was coming off a
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: national championship. It was their first back to back in
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: the Saban dynasty. And you always hear that be the best,
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: you want to beat the best. I wanted no part
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: of them, Like I remember so vividly the night we
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: were number three, and I think it was like Stanford
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: or Oregon was two, and then Kansas State was number
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: one at that point and both of them lost and
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: we bumped up to number one, and I remember sitting
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: there going, well, Alabama's number two now, And I much
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: rather would have played the Kansas State team in the
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: national title and been polishing my big ring and had
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: everyone arguing about hypotheticals if that Bama team would have
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: even made it to the BCS. So no, that stuff
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: is nonsense. You want the trophy however it comes. If
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: you have to beat them, great, But if you happen
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: to get the Spurs or somebody else who at least
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: is looks like less of a death star than the
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: defending champions. You take it, run with it. I'm surprised you,
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: of all people, is opting for this. Two guys.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm doing here. I mean Kojo.
• 38:20
  Speaker 5: His argument was that in five years people would look
• 38:22
  Speaker 5: back at the title and be like, well, you guys
• 38:24
  Speaker 5: beat the Timberwolves to win the title. You guys beat
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: the Spurs. I don't care who we have to beat
• 38:29
  Speaker 5: to win a title.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'm not someone I'm the guy who does that, right,
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: So I'm afraid someone's gonna do it to me. Right,
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: you didn't do it against the best team of the NBA.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: He did it against the t Wolves.
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: I mean, I will say people are already now, in
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: the wake of all the Jalen Brown stuff with the Celtics,
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: they're already going back and reminding everybody that the Celtics
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: had that cupcake road through the Eastern Conference to their
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: title when those guys did win it. So you're not
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: wrong in that people, Because I'm usually one that argues
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: sands the time wants enough passes. We just look at
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: the banner, we look at the wead Wikipedia entry. No
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: one remembers the context of that moment. But in the
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: recency after some people can't do that. I'm with Taylor, though,
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: I don't give a shit. Check out my nice raining,
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: Look at my fun replica trophy. Look at that banner.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: That's pretty sweet. I don't give a damn.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: It's Bill Simmons. That's who I'm worried about. But we
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: love Bill
