• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Chuck Norris was chasing the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: The rex was not chasing the jeep.
• 0:08
  Speaker 3: Murray, Murray, you there?
• 0:09
  Speaker 4: You love sandwiches?
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Huh, Let's go to eighty bo.
• 0:16
  Speaker 4: Wow that Prime Time. Maybe I had a crush on
• 0:18
  Speaker 4: Betty Rubbell.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: I honestly, until after the segment ended and we went
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: to commercial break, had no idea that Jonathan Coachman was black.
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: He caught them the game last night, although they won
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: the game. You're listening to to Gotson Company.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: It is to Gods and Company, presented by Vanduel and
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: the FanDuel Sportsbook. We are doing this an hour before
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: a live show that I'm not participating in. How about
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: that Taylor will be there, mikey A will be there.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Is he won't be there because Sal doesn't want him
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: there and he doesn't want to be there. But Sal
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: is hosting for us today, and my sense is that
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Taylor and mikey A are a bit more excited for
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Sal than they.
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: Would be for the normal show. Is that fair? I mean,
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: it's fair?
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Come on, I mean yeah, I mean, why are we
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: even talking to you today?
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: I might listen today?
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: How about that I'm excited for Sal because Sal ran
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: into some bad luck at WFAN, and by bad luck,
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Greg Carton lost another job and Sal got fired.
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: And so I'm excited for Sal because he loves.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: Radio the way I love radio, Mikey, the way you
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: love radio, and he gets an opportunity today to do radio,
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: and he gets to do it with the two of you,
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: and for.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: That, I am grateful and I'm excited for Sal.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: Can. I just say something real quick. You always say
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: the way you love radio, the way mikey A loves radio.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: You never say I love radio.
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: And I'm not certain you love it.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: I don't think you do. I don't think you do.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: False false false false. I grew up listening to Mike
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: and the Mad Dog. I would get off the bus
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: and my grandpa would watch me after school and he
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: would be listening to Mike and the Mad Dog. And
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: I would try to go to him as an eight
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: year old, nine year old who just wanted to talk
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: about the Yankees.
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: And you would put it out.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: He'd put a hand up, and he goes, wait till
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: the commercials.
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's because they were so fucking good at it, man,
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: I mean jesus.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but Taylor, I used to watch Sports Center, but
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I don't love TV the way you love TV.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Kind of yes, So listen, when I got into this industry,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I got into it to do radio. That's all I
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: ever wanted to do was sports radio. And I'm pretty
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: certain when mikey A got into the industry he wanted to.
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: Be a part of a sports radio show.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: He loves radio, he knows radio, he knows it well, Taylor,
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: you didn't grow You're too young. I mean, me and
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Mikey are the same age. You didn't grow up wanting
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: to get into radio.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Listen.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: I know you listened to WFA and Mike and the
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Mad Dog. But by the time you got around to
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: being a professional, we had already transitioned out of radio
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: essentially and into podcasting a digital you know.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: So by the time I transitioned into trying to be
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: a professional. When I'm in my cube job in Northern Virginia,
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: who do I turn on ESPN Radio The Dan Lebatar
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Show with Stu Gotts Where did I Where did I
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: start to listen to something and be like, oh, I
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: think I could kind of make this a career. The
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: Dan LeBatard Show with Stu Gotts On ESPN Radio. It
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: wasn't watching ESPN News, even though it was a great
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: visual It was the radio aspect of it.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: All right on behalf of me and Dan, Thank you.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: I'm certain you probably listened to more of us on
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: the podcast than you did on live radio.
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: Is that fair to say?
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: I don't think so.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: If by the time you got into radio, Dan and
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Stu were already on ESPN Radio, it was late.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: It was late in the game, right for us.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: You would have said seven ninety ticket, I'd be like, okay,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: I get it.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: What the glory d is? I mean? Yes, No, we
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: were good at ESPN.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: I mean to be anti establishment inside the biggest establishment
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: in sports media for eight years was a thrill. But
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: you're right, probably our best shows were when Mark Hockman
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: was producing them.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Yes, I'm just saying it's more about Timeline than any No.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: That's fair, and that wasn't an unnecessary shot at Mike.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Mike took the whole producing level to a whole new
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: like he took the whole show to a different level.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: He's fantastic. He might be the greatest radio producer that
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: I've ever worked with. But to Mikey's point, yes, pre
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: ESPN was probably the hey day for me and Dan.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: So, Mikey, you're checking my timelines, you're checking my bona fides.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: When I got into the Dan LeBatard Show with Stu Gotts,
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: yes I would listen on ESPN Radio, but to get
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: the local hour, I had to tune into seven ninety
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: the Ticket, I believe.
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: Right, Yes, yeah you did.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: You had to listen to seven ninety the Ticket for
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: the Well. Now I'm trying to think because even when
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: we went to ESPN Radio, I think we recorded the
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: local hour just for the podcast. I'm not one hundred
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: percent certain. It's all blurred. Hold my career, by the way, and.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: I'm listening to a show that's talking about like huber
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: Do on the Panthers, Jose Fernandez on the Marlins players
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: that I really don't care about. But I fell in
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: love with the radio aspect.
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: One of the best complements we got as a radio
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: show is somehow we made people care about the Marlins
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: and about teams that they wouldn't normally root for. They
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: were really just interested in us. I mean they were
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: interested in us as human beings. They were interested in us.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: And now we're dynamic and O we're friendships and all
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: of that, and that's what radio is all about.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: So you got people to care about the Marlins. Unfortunately
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: for the Marlins, it doesn't look like it ever translated into.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: A well to South Florida.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: They might have more fans out of Florida than they
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: do in Florida because of me and Dan.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: I'll take credit for it, that's right.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: But Taylor, I love doing this show. I love working
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: with Stu, I love the podcast, I love all of it.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: But something about the text messages we were having with
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Sal last night where we were throwing out sports radio topics,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I'm so discussing what segment we were gonna put them in.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Oh that's sports radio.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: I mean this guy is really mapping out a show. Huh.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Structure, I had no idea what that feels like. Fuck structure.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: I mean one of the topics to if I could
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: give you a little peek behind the curtain.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: I want all the topics. Do you getting me? Go ahead?
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: How many current MLB players would go into the Hall
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: of Fame tomorrow?
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: Oh wow, so we're not waiting five years anymore. The
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: first ballot is the day after you retire. Yeah, I mean,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: I hate to say it, but Mike Trout is probably
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: walking into the Hall of Fame tomorrow, right probably probably
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: probably he is.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: They make him wait a year.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Aaron Judge is probably walking into the Hall of Fame,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: all right, strong?
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: Straight? Yes?
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Is Stanton walking into the Hall of Fame? Or does
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: he have to wait five days?
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: I mean, how does that? This is?
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: This is a contentious one because this is one, this
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: is one where there's some pushback.
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: I don't think Stanton he's not a first ballot guy.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: And so if the new first ballot is the day
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: after your retire, Stanton's not walking into that place.
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: There's no way.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: I'm watching bord op Ricardo turn his head because we're
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: saying bad things about Stanton. But what he doesn't realize is,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: as a Yankee fan, we're getting post Seahawks Russell Wilson Stanton. Yes, right,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: we haven't. We didn't see the Stanton he saw right.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: To be fair to John Carlos Stan, he's batting three.
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: Go ahead. Im sorry to be fair.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: To John Carlos Stan. He's batting three forty one this season.
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: It's eleven games in man. Yeah, he an injury right
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: around the corner.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: The problem isn't when he plays. The problem is when
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: he plays.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Ah, is Freddie Freeman walking into the Hall of Fame.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: I think that's a good one, I believe. I think
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: that's yeah, I believe.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: So.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: I had to put my glasses on to just see
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: some of these guys.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: Vlad hasn't done enough yet, right, So he's not walking
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: into the Hall of Fame.
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: He hasn't been around enough.
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I have I have flat on his way. I have
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: I have Lad a year or two away from being
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: able to walk in.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what a top it by sal So so on
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: their way.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: This was a mikey a special Right, I love it.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't get me those I mean walking is right?
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, come on, he's riding a unicorn in.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: He should be walking in with handcuffs anyway, Go ahead
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: to Altove is strolling into the Hall.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: Of Fame next time?
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're carrying him?
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: Is a Springer.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: We gotta have some standards.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: I mean, Taylor, you're a Yankee fan, you're biased.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: Uh, He's hit monster home runs in the postseason against you,
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: and he's done it both with the Astros with the
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: Blue Jays.
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: So I'm not saying he's a first day Hall of Famer,
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: but like third day perhaps, is that? Is that?
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: No?
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: Wow, you guys will not listen.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: Good Hall of very So Springer is not a Hall
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: of Famer period, is what you're saying.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: I don't think.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: So. He has a shot. He has a shot, he's
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: got an outside chance.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: Uh, cal Rawley hasn't done enough.
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: I'm trying to think. If there's a picture out there.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: There's two of them, there's two, there's two easy ones.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: And they were.
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: Teammates, two easy pitchers. You're saying, yes, they.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Were teammates on the Mets.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: And the Tigers.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: They were teammates. Yeah, he went for the Mets.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: To you might have had a better chance on the Tigers.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: Well, nobody really associates them on the Mets because they
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: were on the Mets for so short and their tenure
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: there went so poorly.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: Is is Blake Well, Blake Snell wasn't a Met.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: I think Tigers career, Tigers and Nats maybe Scooba.
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: He wasn't a Mets though.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: I think you should just give him the answer.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you should.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: He's drowned justin Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer.
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: Oh God, I forgot about Verlin.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: There's a cup of coffee with the Mets, and Sure's
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: there's Jesus Christ and got him fifteen years too late.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: It's like a cup of coffee that you had that
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: you immediately spilled on yourself, like.
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: You forgot the splendor.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a cup of coffee you left on
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: the counter too long, so it got warm but not cold,
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: so you can make it an iced coffee.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's bad. I understand what you guys are saying.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: It's like Jesus Christ. Sure, I don't Sure's walking.
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: Into the Hall of Fame easily.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, there's no way. Is so Todi walking
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: into the Hall of Fame as a picture? I mean,
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: I know he's walking in as a hitter, but if
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: he was just a picture.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: No, if he was just a picture now.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: And there's no one else, that's it. What happened to
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: the starter? I mean, it's a better one. I don't
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: know that they'll ever be another reliever to make it.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: There's some relievers that are that are probably worthy, that
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: are still waiting to get in.
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Now, right maybe, but like, there's no the The Closer
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: is a one and two year thing.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: Now it feels like, right, yeah, that's fair.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: Who's the next picture after those two starters? Is there another?
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Is there are there any other Hall of Fame pictures?
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: Like, I know it's Cole.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: I guess Eric Cole could could play his way there.
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: I guess Skiens.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: I guess Schlittler Taylor would trade straight up for Skeens.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Because if you're gonna make Skiens a Hall of Famer,
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: and you would trade them straight up for Schlitler, then
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: by I guess, you know, by extension, Schlitzler becomes a
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Hall of Famer first day.
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: So I don't think Schlitler would be a Hall of
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: Famer if the MLB ended today. And I don't think
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: Grett Cole would be a Hall of Famer if an
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: MLB ended today.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: I don't think so.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: That was the name I was fishing for, by the way,
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: the entire time was Garrett Cole.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: Yes, but there is another Yankee who, if the MLB
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: ended today, is an immediately an immediate Hall of Famer.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: That's not Aaron Judge. He's currently on the Yankees bench.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: Paul Goldschmidt.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's going in. He's won MVPs yep. I
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: said that plural. I'm not certain if he's won more
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: than one.
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: No, you know he's won one.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: He's won one MVP, five Silver Sluggers, four Gold Gloves,
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: seven time All Star, and he's one of five current
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: active players with over two thousand hits. I think all
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: these guys are Hall of famers. Freddie Freeman, Altuve, Andrew McCutchen,
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: Gold Schmidt, Manny Machado.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Oh, I forgot about McCutcheon and Machado.
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: That's a good one.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: Mccutcheen's he won an MVP as well, did he not?
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: Yes?
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes?
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Was that Ricardo? Because all he does is watch baseball,
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: running your horizons.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Dude, Ricardo has been giving the thumbs up her thumbs
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: down to every name that we've given.
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: If they're a Hall of Famer, well that's all. Why
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: ask me.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: Let's just ask Ricardo. I will, I will do the
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: play by play. Freddy Freeman. Thumbs up, thumbs down, Yes.
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: Thumbs up. I don't want to hear a word. No,
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: we don't want to hear you.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Just do the thing you're doing with your hand.
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: That's it, way too wordy, Freddy Freeman. Ask him some
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: more schoobol.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: First, he retires today, does he walk into the Hall
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: of Fame tomorrow? Thumbs up, thumbs down and gave a
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: thumbs down skens thumbs up, thumbs.
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: That g this is rivety. Tell fucking sal to do this.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Huh oh, he's given the he's given the waving, the
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: waving middle finger.
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: For Garrett Cole.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Yes, no, yes, no, yes. I think we should use
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: whatever power we have as a as a group, as
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: a show and get Ricardo a Hall of Fame vote.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: Deserves it. No one cares about baseball more than him.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: Seriously, that should be our plea. That's the platform were
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: running on. Nobody cares more about baseball than him.
• 14:04

• 14:30
  Speaker 4: pass this on to South if he wants to do
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: live radio this way.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Okay, Wow, Acuna got the thumbs down.
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: He got a thumbs down.
• 14:39

• 14:54
  Speaker 2: I know, I know, I saw that. I saw the
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: thumbs up. I'm trying to think anyone else we're leaving
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: off here.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: What about Chris by Christian Yellows.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: Yelly wow, really, Yellich, you have yellow thumbs up. Won
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: an m v P right after Forget getting him.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: A vote, forget getting him a vote.
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: Oh, because he was a Marlin. That's that's He's got biases,
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: which I respect as a voter.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but his best years were with the Brewers, man like,
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: and he does nothing in the postseason. I mean he really,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: he's not a great postseason player. Yellwich is not a
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: first ballot Hall of Famer. The first ballots reserved for
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: the great the all time greats, like Paul Goldschmidt.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: So Ricardo Ricardo has moved off Yellich as an as
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: a Hall of Famer. He's he switched to a thumbs down.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: This is just first ballot. I haven't gotten to five
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: days out just first ballot. Okay, so he's not, but
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: you would put him in five days later. Right, eventually
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: he gets into the Hall of Fame.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: You're making this tough by not letting him talk.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: All the time.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: What about Mookie Betts.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: We should we should do this to Izzy every once
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: in a while.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, we do, and he hates us. Mookie
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: Betts got a thumbs up, Cookie Bets.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: I honestly, I honestly, Mookie Bets is a thumbs up.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Mike. No, Mookie Betts is never the best player on
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: his own team.
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: Mike, let me just like a two time MVP man.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: Let me read off. Never his acclades.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he has an MVP.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: He's an eight time All Star, six time, six time
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Gold Glove, seven times Silver Slugger, he has a batting title,
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: and he's won four World Series.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: Of every name, blah blah, of all the names minus
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Mike Troud, he might be the best player.
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: Movie Bets better than Betty.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: He's not better than Freddy. Freddy strikes strikes fear in
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: the heart. Mookie Betts doesn't.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: Did you say Mookie Betts was never the best team
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: on his championship team. He was definitely the best player
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: on the Red Sox.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I said he was never the best player on
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: his own team when they were good, but I guess
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: on the Red Sox he was. Though the Red Sox
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: is different.
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so on that first they weren't.
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: Good when he was with the Red Sox, I mean
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: they won a World Series.
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: They won a series with.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: The Red Sox. Yeah, he was on that team and
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: he was the.
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: Best player on Oh, yes, you want to put him
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: in there.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: I apologize, Mookie Bets. I apologize I was wrong.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: And then he went to the Dodgers and won one
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: there or won several.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, y, Freddy Freeman carried him.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: So he has four World Series, Mookie Bets. Yeah, I

  Speaker 3: No, I don't believe.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: So no, no, And how many without Otani? So he
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: won one without Otani? And Otani has never won one
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: without Bets.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Uh?
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that is where I'm going here, right. I believe
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: the one that he won on the Dodgers without Otani
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: was the COVID one.
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's what. Yeah, but Otani do it without bets.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: I mean and or.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: We just gotta brush that over.
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: That he didn't notice. I don't care how much money
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: you have in your checking account.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: When someone takes fourteen million dollars out of the account,
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: you fucking notice, as salvat today, Okay, why am I last?
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: You got it?
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: Sow, there's no room in the show. We're booked.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Who do you have just make me insanely jealous with
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: some big time guess, even if it's a lie, I
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: don't care.
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: So I asked Sal, Hey, Salt judge, No, we got Mookie.
• 18:47
  Speaker 5: I asked sal today, Hey, do you need me to
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: try to book any guests for you? And he said, no, guest,
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: just let me go.
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: Ah, yes, I love it. He's gonna go. He was
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: ready to go. It's time. Motherfucker has been waiting for
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: this for a long time.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: He kept thanking me again last night, even after the show,
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: and I kept telling him, responding to him via text.
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: Stop thanking me.
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: You gave me a day off, and I don't have
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: to worry about the show because I know it's in
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: good hands with salth. I do because he cares about
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: this stuff. He cares about radio, unlike daylor stop saying
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: that slander.
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: I think you've grown to love the doing of radio.
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: Is that fair?
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: You weren't certain how you were gonna feel about it
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: when we first got started. But being in there and
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: as I like to describe it, doing that high wire
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: act where you're without a net, you're live. You have
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: no idea if you're going to hit the hard network
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: out or not. But it makes you feel alive, doesn't it.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: So this again, this is defamation of my character and
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: my love for radio.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: Stup.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: There were times when I was at Carolina that I
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: would spend my spring break going to wfan and just
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: asking them, Hey, can I just watch shows because I
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: love sports radio.
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: No, I understand that, but I was.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: I was nervous on your behalf when we started doing
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: the radio show because I just didn't know, Like, I
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: didn't know how you would feel about it. I didn't
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: know if you would enjoy the doing of it. It's
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: a lot what we're doing with the podcast and then
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: the radio show.
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: It's just a lot. It's a lot for me, but.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: My senses after a couple of successful bits that you
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: enjoy it. It's a two hour sprint, and I think
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: Mikey he seems to enjoy it very much and he's
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: very good at it.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Yes, that's all of those things are true. But Taylor,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: you ever been on a movie set. No, it's boring.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: It is awful. It is it is, it is. It
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: is one of the most tedious things you could ever watch.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: But I love going to the movies. So there's a
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: big difference between I love the movies and I love
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: making movies.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: Right, Listening to Mike and Chris do a great radio
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: show is different than having to produce one yourself, you know,
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: And that's what.
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: I was worried about. That's it.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: And also WFA n is a bit different to where
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: you could see the callboards light up and it's like
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: Chris in Rockland County wants to talk about Jason Scarr,
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: the Yankees backup catcher, and it's like, wow, that's.
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: What those calls.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: He's been waiting to get this takeout.
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: So Taylor, I'll tell you.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: The first show I did was after I think a
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: the PGA Championship Tiger won it. It was a Sunday night,
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: it was it was the first show I had ever
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: done at w FA and I'm sitting in franchise franchise.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: I just called him your character.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Sitting in Frances's chair. I'm a little bit nervous. I
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: have to be honest. And every line, I still have
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: seven minutes before I'm going on air because we're in
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: a commercial break, okay, and it's right.
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: After the PGA, and it's a Sunday night.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: I'm nervous. I'm not certain how many people are listening.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: Every line is lived up. They don't know who they're
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: speaking to. They don't care who they're speaking to. It
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter if it's Me Carton, Gianatti, Bloomer, Evan rob
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: they don't care. They just want to talk about the
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: Mets and Yankees backup catchers.
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: That's it. It was glorious.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: I loved it. I missed that place, and so does
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: fucking sal Can.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: I tell you guys, something that happened to me yesterday.

• 24:15
  Speaker 2: don't want them listening. I don't want any soccer fans listening.

  Speaker 2: I don't care because soccer is boring. It's dreadful. Uh.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: And the World Cup is coming and I don't care,
• 24:23

  Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. Their hosts their their host country. They're automatically.
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: Oh so they get an automatic bid yep.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: Wow, it's gonna be short lived. They play first in
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: the group stage. Taylor's looking it out, to look it up.
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: I was going to try to make a joke.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: Yes, I'm just gonna make a joke that they'll be
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: out after that. They'll be out after one game of
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: the group stage, if that's possible at the World Cup.
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: I don't know the roots.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: It's not, but I get what you're saying.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: It's over the story for the United States. It was
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: all I'm saying. Have you guys checked out the Masters
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: at all today?
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Is that on? Now?
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: You're pissing me on? You guys are happy because it's
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: all I be talking about today.
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: I understood.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: I have a small flyer on Tommy Fleetwood after you
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: recommended it.
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: I did. I did recommend them. Where is he at
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: three under right now?
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: He's at three under?
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Freddie Couples.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: It's a tradition unlike any other minus two after four holes, right,
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: It's fucking.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: Crazy, man. I saw Jose Maria Ola Thabel, who has
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: won the thing. He's sixty years old. He was minus
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: two after three.
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: Some of these guys have memorized the front nine where
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you, every single year, these guys are going
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: to come out.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: They'll put up.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: Nice numbers first nine holes, then they get a little
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: bit tired. The back line is a little bit more
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: tricky than the front nine. And then you see guys
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: like Couples and Ola thabble. They start off hot, maybe
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: they stick around for a round or two. It's exciting,
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: but eventually they go away. They just do so I'll
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: be glued to it the entire weekend. I can't wait.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: You guys don't like golf the way I like golf.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: You don't like this major the way I like this major.
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: You don't like radio the way I radio
