• 2:30
  Speaker 4: Bam bam, bam bam. Frank Sinatra said that first Now,
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: this weekend took place in Nashville, Tennessee. It took place
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: all over the world, but in Nashville specifically, we had
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: an ice storm. Hundreds of thousands of people are without
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: power right now. We're putting them in our thoughts and prayers.
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: We break all that down with our guests today. You'll
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: see our guest Josh Pate. He is a great weatherman.
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: He knows all of the things. It's absolutely incredible. But
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: our hearts go out to everybody that is dealing with
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: power outages, food supplies, staying warm. It's like it's a
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: very very difficult time on this bus. We've had a
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: couple guys in the back right now, Jeremy Clump, Jack McPherson,
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: Mitch Carsley. The boys are sitting back here. Made a
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: trek just to get this podcast done. Why we love you,
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: We love the viewer, We love this job. Will was
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: unable to make it. A handful of other guys were
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: able to make it. But we have a nice little
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: skeleton crew to try to brighten up your day in
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: terms of chaos. If you're one of the states, cities,
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: places that have been affected by these insane storms, which
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: seems like it's over half of the country that has
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: gotten hit pretty hard. This weekend or Wednesday last week,
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: Will and I headed over to Samcom in La. It
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: was a great time we had, but light out there.
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: Neutral was out there, First Form South Forsella was there.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: We had a great time. We had the opportunity to
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: go on stage. We had ourselves a nice little script.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: And what they're telling us about the Samcom event, it's
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: a four or five day long week. Everybody getting together.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: They're having a good time. They're breaking bread, they're having
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: a couple of drinks. So this crowd is on their
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: last day before Samcom is all over. We were told
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: crowd might be a little stiff. Okay, they've had late nights,
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: they've had early mornings. They're out there networking, have a
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: good time. Think of all the things you do when
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: you're trying to network in La for Samcom. Well, I
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: go out there. We have a script that we go
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: over for about five minutes. Steve Wolf, he's out there
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: helping with Neutral and Boys. I'll say we got a
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: couple of good laughs, got a couple of good laughs
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: from a crowd that seemed like they were't going to
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: be a great crowd, end up being a phenomenal crowd,
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: and the Samcom event was absolutely incredible. From that moment,
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: we get done a little bit early. I have a
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: flight leaving later in the afternoon to Vegas to spend
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: one day there. We were going to do a whole
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: vlog with zoof of boxing, gambling and obviously UFC three
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: twenty four that took place on Paramount. But with these
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: storms coming in, my wife and my two kids, they're
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: at home. I want to make sure that I'm there
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: for them. So my decision was, I'm already in LA,
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: I'll go for one night. I'll fly out the next day,
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: get in and out.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Boom.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: So I get on a quick flight, we cruise over there,
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: hang out with Dana and the fellows. We get a
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: nice fun night on our hands. I wake up the
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: next morning, I jump on a plane, and I'm so
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: grateful that I jumped on that plane. Because Saturday happens
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: a little bit of a storm, nothing too crazy. Sunday
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: morning power starts to go out everywhere, ice starts to fall.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: It's a full breakdown in here with Josh pay of
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: how catastrophic this storm really was and how a lot
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: of people from the North. I lived in the North
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: for four years, being at the University of Michigan and
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: in Arbor snow falls all the time. There's always winter
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: storms taking place, and the North people just understand how
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: to operate with snow. And Nashville, as much as I've
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: been here, we've gotten better and better at the Snow Park.
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: This is not a snowstorm. This is an ice storm.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: And it's incredibly chaotic and beautiful at the same time.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: And I say that in a weird way because there's
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: so much chaos. People's lives are being so affected. I
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: woke up this morning seeing trees drooped down by ice,
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: and there's such a level of calm with all the
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: power outages taking place with no cars on the road,
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: that it's a weird beauty about it. But it takes
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: so much away from all of us. It's just insane, man,
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: to see all these people being affected, and it truly sucks.
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: But I'm glad I got left the West to get
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: back to my family because I would feel horrible if
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: I was not there with them. So I guess we're
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: going to start off for a little clean take. Clean take.
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: Let's have a clean take real quick. And I think
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: that's just being there for people when they need you most,
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: being there for people when they need you most. I
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: have a neighbor who has a pacemaker. Their power is out.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: We're lucky enough to have a generator at our house,
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: so our house is for the most part powered, but
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: we're the only one I feel like within a mile
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: that has unless they have a generator as well that
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: has power. My neighbor has a pacemaker that needs to
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: be charged. So this morning, before I even got there,
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: I came to the shop. My wife sends me a text, Hey,
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: you got to go to the neighbor's house. You got
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: to grab their pacemaker so we can charge it for
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: them in order for him. Essentially, this guy's got to
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: stay alive. And we get there, him and his wife
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: they me at the door. They're kind of explaining to me, Hey,
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: we appreciate you guys doing this, but easy exchange. Grab
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: the pacemaker, plug that thing in. Once I get back
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: from the shop, I'll go bring it back to them.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: But just in times of chaos, in times of all
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: a bunch of bad things happened to a lot of people,
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: to be able to help is just It's a very
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: nice feeling. And I would only hope that if somebody
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: else was in the position that I was in, that
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: they would do the same thing for me. All the
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: boys have rallied around each other, the group chests been
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: firing off, boys have been checking in each other. A
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: lot of guys don't have power. Jack my fear of
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: some one of the lucky few to have power right now.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: But Jeremy clump making the track thirty minutes? How was
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: that little drive, buddy? Was that just insane?
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: It really actually wasn't bad at all.
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: I have on one like back road I gotta go
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: through was pretty cleared off, and then I'm mostly highway
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: the whole way here, and the highway was pretty good
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: outside of what's the all the way to the left
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: lane that you guys have the hov they just decided
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: to not even know they didn't touch it.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: That one is just that's ruined.
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: I don't know when that'll ever be a lane again
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: in Nashville, but it's it's retired for now, but there's
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: like two lanes wide open.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: The worst road is the one right here.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this road right here on the outside, dude, terrible,
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: that's the worst road other than that. Like I was
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: driving through all over the city trying to get over here.
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: There's a bunch of trees knocked down, but the roads
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: themselves are actually in a good spot in Nashvill's done
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: a great job of kind of like rallying the troops
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: and working their ass off to get things powered back up.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: The trees are crazy.
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: I think it might have been your wife who shared
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: a story on Instagram of like an aerial view of Nashville.
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: Possible. Dude, It's just crazy and it looks like a
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: tornado went through.
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: It literally looks like a tornado through and there's just
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: ice everywhere.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: It's nuts, ma'am, it really is. I've never seen a
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: storm like this in my entire life. It's one of
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: the craziest things I've ever witnessed.
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: Clean take For me, I live closer to downtown, so
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: there's something like obviously, don't get me wrong, this storm
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: everybody losing power, like it one hundred percent sucks and
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: like it's going to take a long time for everything
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: to get back to normal. But like being downtown and
• 9:02
  Speaker 6: where I'm at, like I have like a view of
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: like the skyline. The city was so quiet and nobody
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: on the roads. It was kind of like an eerie
• 9:13
  Speaker 6: but cool kind of feeling because you're just looking around
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: to be like, this is like a hustling a bustle
• 9:17
  Speaker 6: in city, Like there's always cars going by, sirens and everything,
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: but it was just dead quiet, and it was actually
• 9:22
  Speaker 6: kind of like a cool thing to just kind of
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: stand out on my balcony just like feel like just
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: see the city in.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Its most raw form.
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, clean take on like eerie feelings about a city.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: Clean take in moments of chaos, finding a bit of beauty,
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: finding a bit of beauty. That's a clean take, Mitch,
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: I like that take what he said. That's that's a
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: Kevin Saner food clean take right there. I love it
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: a lot.
• 9:46
  Speaker 7: Do you boys got it?
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: Clean takes? Clean takes out here?
• 9:51
  Speaker 8: I would double down with yours is clean take. Just
• 9:55
  Speaker 8: take every opportunity you can to help people out. Like
• 9:58
  Speaker 8: you said, I was one of the fortunate ones. I
• 10:00
  Speaker 8: did not lose power. People very close to me lost power.
• 10:03
  Speaker 8: Two streets away, so almost as like the grid system
• 10:06
  Speaker 8: shut off right before mine started, which was great.
• 10:09
  Speaker 7: But we I live next.
• 10:11
  Speaker 8: Door to one of my really good friends, two of
• 10:13
  Speaker 8: them actually, and thankfully us not having power, we were
• 10:16
  Speaker 8: able to host and welcome in a bunch of our
• 10:18
  Speaker 8: friends who didn't have power, didn't have heat, they have kids,
• 10:22
  Speaker 8: We had babies running around, so we were just kind
• 10:24
  Speaker 8: of mixed between we're calling a house a and house
• 10:26
  Speaker 8: be and just just lett it rip. Everyone's bringing what
• 10:30
  Speaker 8: they have, their food, their blankets, and so when you
• 10:33
  Speaker 8: just have an opportunity to get the community together through
• 10:37
  Speaker 8: a kind of a stressful and chaotic time, take every
• 10:40
  Speaker 8: opportunity you can just lend a helping hand.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: Nice clean take, Jack, clean take, clump, don't fuck this up.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: Now we got clean takes going.
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: On well Heavan's Natural Foods. Clean take is when you
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: go on a trip or you do something and there's
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: like those memorable moments that just stick out in your head.
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: And for me, for Sam Coom, when we went there's
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: a moment when Taylor looks at me and he's like,
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: if my day's gonna be bad, I'm gonna ruin someone else.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, and there's.
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: Just that vibe of having fun in those moments, Like
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: I just kept playing that story back in my head
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: the whole weekend, the whole week I guess, and it
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: was fun.
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: So yeah, because the trip, like flying out to LA
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: this time of year when we're still like in the
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: very busy part, it was extremely inconvenient. There's no way
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: around like clubs playing the optimism game.
• 11:25
  Speaker 7: We go out the dinner I got.
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: I have my gout scares that have stopped me from
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: like really eating certain kinds of foods. So I go
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: to this dinner with all the silver Try boys and
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: I'm looking at the menu. I throw the menu to
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: chat Gypt It's like, you can't eat any of this shit.
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: Maybe some salad, that's about it. So we leave the
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: dinner for like a two hour dinner and I'm fucking starving,
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: and we get the car men and it's like overtired
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: giggles and I'm just like, man, fuck this, I'm gonna
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: make sure everybody else's day around me is ruined. It
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: for the next twenty four hours. We end up having
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: a good time though it was fun.
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: Good time, and then Will was trying to ruin your day.
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: Then it flipped like the next day because he.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Will was on some ship. I can't remember what
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: he was saying. Yes, Will took a crazy shot at
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: Zips when I well, I took a shot on Nashville
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: about like the food, and I was like, there's not
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: like a good healthy like quick spot you can go
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: to around Nashville, like or a multitude of areas that
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: like elevate like high die, like a high living dining
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: in Nashville tops to the tops, like fast food like
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: fried Chicken, unique places, tops the tops. But where's that
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: middle class? Like I want to go to my local bar,
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: my local sports bar kind of hangout area and just
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: really feel it all and like enjoy it. And I
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: was like, Zips would change everything for Nashville. What am
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: I off on that?
• 12:45
  Speaker 8: Jack? I mean there, I don't get me wrong. I
• 12:47
  Speaker 8: love Zips, the Fasha, the wings. You can't beat it,
• 12:50
  Speaker 8: can't beat it, especially under that Arizona sun no ice.
• 12:54
  Speaker 8: But there are a handful of like Jonathan Sports Bar amazing.
• 12:57
  Speaker 8: I mean it's franchise here, great has upscale dining, good beers,
• 13:02
  Speaker 8: TVs everywhere. See, you don't even want to have a
• 13:05
  Speaker 8: conversation about this because your mind is made up. I
• 13:07
  Speaker 8: agree with you that ZIPS would change it, but there
• 13:09
  Speaker 8: are options here.
• 13:11
  Speaker 7: You just don't get out the thing's grill.
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: It's a sports bar, Yeah, never heard of it.
• 13:15
  Speaker 8: Why there's like three locations in the greater Nashville area.
• 13:18
  Speaker 7: But I feel like you don't get out that.
• 13:20
  Speaker 8: Much, like you're not Taylor Wand you're not gonna find
• 13:23
  Speaker 8: Taylor Wand at a local national sports form.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: If there was a ZIPS, I would be there.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: So let me ask you this, why why don't you
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: become a franchise franchise e franchise owner, franchiser and just
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: bring one out here?
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: I would if Zips would approach me with that idea,
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: I would absolutely love to bring a ZIPS to Nashville.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Is there like a reason it's only in Arizona or
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: is there like.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: Oh, you're talking about the storyline of ZIPS. So there's
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: a bar called Goldies that is over by a bunch
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: of baseball fields in Arizona. Goldies is the og Zips.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: I don't know what happened, if there was a breakup
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: that took place, but they are the og like Golden
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: Wing type of spot that you go to and you're like,
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: my god, it's incredible. They had a nice little arcade
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: in the corner that corner, like the old old school,
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: like you played the Simpsons game, a couple of like
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: California Cruising type of games, but like very basic, but
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: you go there after the baseball games go weet there
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: somewhere in there, mid two thousands, I think like Zips
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: just start popping the blow blast. I'm definitely getting my
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: timeline wrong, but it seems like it's just an Arizona staple. Now,
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: if this Arizona Staple wants to mention over across the country,
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: over the East and hang out in Nashville, Tennessee, buddy,
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: call me.
• 14:29
  Speaker 7: I am in.
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: I am all in on a Zips coming to Nashville.
• 14:32
  Speaker 8: I feel like, if you want Zips, you've got to
• 14:34
  Speaker 8: call them all I'll call them, I know, but like.
• 14:37
  Speaker 6: Like legitimately with this, I am getting so hungry and
• 14:40
  Speaker 6: want a Fakasha and Golden Wings extra show its extra crispy.
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: Could you imagine like a Zips just sit in the
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: middle of Germantown.
• 14:47
  Speaker 7: Would you be.
• 14:48
  Speaker 8: Worried though that, uh, something would be lost in the move,
• 14:53
  Speaker 8: Like if you move the franchise or like a franchise here.
• 14:56
  Speaker 7: Do you think it changes?
• 14:57
  Speaker 8: Like, does the flavor taste different because you're an Arizona.
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: Good question. I don't think the flavor tastes different. I
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: would take I would essentially go down and find the
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: best chefs of Zips and be like, take me through
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: your process. So when we have to go train these
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: individuals in Nashville, we we got to make them so
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: passionate about a monico fication the Zips Golden Wings that
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: they don't miss a step. The only way to be
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: successful in business to have like minded people with similar
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: passions towards what you're trying to build. That's what make
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: things happen. And if we can find a few chefs
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: out there, they can make Zips wings, which I'm telling you, delicacy, delicacy,
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: You get that done. Boys were operating. So Will is
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: being a bitch is basically what we're saying.
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: Hearing Mitch just say how he's like craving, that makes
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: me believe even more that Zips would rock here hearing
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: someone speak about food that way, especially no offense.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Mitch.
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: Mitch is like a pickier eater, Oh for sure.
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: Hearing him just say that he wants that makes me
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: makes me fired up, dude.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: One of the greatest feelings I've ever had in my life,
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: in my life is when we were all in Arizona
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: and it's like, basically the whole squad's there and I've
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: been talking, yeah, at the striper Bowl, I've been talking
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: and talking and talking about zips and how great it is.
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: And then the moment comes where I take them to
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: my specific zips that I know is going to deliver.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: Every belly was full, every heart was happy, and every
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: soul was cleansed, and I walked away. I sat in
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: the back of that car on the way to wherever
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: we were going next, looking out the window, smiling, knowing
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: I just did God's work for my voice.
• 16:28
  Speaker 8: And then there's a moment too where like, as you've
• 16:31
  Speaker 8: just explained, it's like, what if they're having an off
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: day and my whole reputation is out the windows, right,
• 16:37
  Speaker 8: And if you'll only get one, bro, because that truly,
• 16:40
  Speaker 8: if I think of all time greatest meals I've shared
• 16:43
  Speaker 8: with my brothers, that goes up there.
• 16:45
  Speaker 7: That's that's that's right up there.
• 16:47
  Speaker 8: It's up there, and everything delivered that you said, And
• 16:50
  Speaker 8: I love ordering with Taylor, especially at a place where
• 16:53
  Speaker 8: he knows what to order, because you just sit back,
• 16:56
  Speaker 8: relax and just let them take the driver.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: That, Hey, that's a clean taste, that's a clean a
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: clean takes.
• 17:01
  Speaker 7: Don't even look at them menu when you have.
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: The pressure of like what am I gonna get? A
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: couple things look kind of good, but I really don't know.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: Was the first time and someone's like, hey, do you
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: guys want to do family style? And you're like, yeah,
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: I'll do family style. I was like, do you mind
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: if I just start going to the specific you want?
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: You're like I'd like this, like no problem, and they
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: order everything and you just sit back and then just
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: cuisine clean clean take.
• 17:21
  Speaker 8: If you've ever another clean take, if you ever have
• 17:24
  Speaker 8: the pleasure of dining with Taylor at a family style meal,
• 17:27
  Speaker 8: you will never go away from that spot feeling hungry.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, buddy, Oh yeah.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: That's a pretty good complimentary.
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, which is so funny considering you left family style
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: food so hungry.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, like duck high and peering, steak high and peering.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: They brought pizzas. I'm thinking of myself. Twenty twenty six,
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: I'm still on the ground, can't be eat no pizza.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: But yeah, dude, if we we go to eat and
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: I know, like, hey, like we're not doing a split
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: bill thing. I'm gonna pay for dinner. Like I don't
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: want people to be like, oh, I kind of want
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: they'd be sick to charge the primary. But it's like, no, bro,
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: two of them we're doing through this. We're doing that
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: whenever we go to out the vegacy and it's like, brother,
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: we're putting a sort like there's gonna be multiple dishes
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: that might not be touched.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: We're talking about first world problems type of living, okay,
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: because I want my boys to be fed and happy
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: and healthy. Maybe not so healthy because of what the
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: Zips does, but hey, I'm doing.
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: I honestly think if we reached out to Zips like
• 18:25
  Speaker 6: we could, you could busting with the boys, could legitimately
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: get it out here.
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree. If if they're interested in partnering with
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: us and we could franchise the Zips out here, Nash
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: will never be the same. It'll be the Boom, It'll
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: be the boom dot Com Boom Boom.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: Would we get our all like, would there'd be like
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: a Jack mac Fakasha a clump curse for.
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: Kasha vampire margarita, yeah something. Hey, we would have some specializies.
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: What I'd also like to do if this was a
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: bust with the boys type of thing, makes like a
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: lot of things unique to it. Like we'll put the
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: jerseys will have a classic sports bar feel, but everybody
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: would have like a tag on their booth, like there
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: would be a boot like a mcpheerson booth his boys,
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: the raft the.
• 19:24
  Speaker 7: Raft dude.
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: And also like you guys know, there'd be a boy's
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: not a big boozer anymore, but the zipper ritas they
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: make there. Any person that's had a beverage at Zips
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: and they had a zipper rita life changing, life changing.
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: And we'd add a little Nashville to it as well.
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: Out outdoors, have a little bit of some corn hole
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: going on outdoor games. You can have a little fun
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: while eating a Monica fukasha with that extra jalapeno dipping sauce.
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: Are you fucking me right now, dude.
• 19:48
  Speaker 7: I'll tell you right now.
• 19:49
  Speaker 8: One neighborhood that desperately needs a good sports bar is Wedgwood, Houston,
• 19:54
  Speaker 8: where I live, and that might be the best spot
• 19:57
  Speaker 8: to telling you it's up and coming.
• 20:00

  Speaker 3: Yeah, No, how do you complain for not having to
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: pay for a pay per view?
• 23:54
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I feel like most of the commercials that I
• 23:56
  Speaker 8: was noticing that it's kind of like out of the
• 23:58
  Speaker 8: ordinary was it'd be like a picture in Make Sure
• 24:00
  Speaker 8: where they'd still have the broadcast.
• 24:01
  Speaker 7: Going on a smaller screen and then they throw.
• 24:03
  Speaker 8: Up said advertising, which never bothers me. I'm you know,
• 24:06
  Speaker 8: running to grab something or you know, I can go
• 24:08
  Speaker 8: take it right.
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: And let's not forget what commercials do for us to
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: give us an opportunity to look at our phones, check
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: in with people. If it's not stop actually over and
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: over again, it's like watching a movie. It's like, I
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: can't wait to talk about this when it's over. Now
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: you get a little break here and there to talk
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: about it.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: The way they're doing their bonuses, yeah.
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: The bonuses are money. So where they're doing one hundred
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: thousand dollars for fight of the night, and if you
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: finish somebody, it's a twenty extra twenty five thousand. So
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: if you finish somebody in a UFC fight, the person
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: that finished the individual, they get twenty five thousand dollars
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: on top of what they're already making. So now we're
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: back into the rising tide lifts all boats. UFC fighters
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: are loving this Paramount fight is the Paramount plus deal
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: because their game is now also getting elevated. Their pockets
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: are getting elevated. And this, dude, this this fight not
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: disappoint at all. Sugar shot out of Malley song, you
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: dong back and forth. People are a little upset because
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: they think Sean Omelly should have not won that fight.
• 25:02
  Speaker 8: I think it was a setup for a comeback. I mean, really,
• 25:04
  Speaker 8: if if Sean lost that fight, his career in the UFC,
• 25:07
  Speaker 8: by no means is it over. But it absolutely is
• 25:10
  Speaker 8: in jeopardy for being main event cardworthy because that'd be
• 25:13
  Speaker 8: his third loss in a row. Who knows what it is.
• 25:17
  Speaker 8: I think I love seeing Sean win. I think America
• 25:20
  Speaker 8: loves seeing Sean win Friend of the show.
• 25:22
  Speaker 7: For end of the show.
• 25:23
  Speaker 8: But man, that one hundred thousand dollars five bonus has
• 25:26
  Speaker 8: to be going to Patty and Justin Geechee debt, and
• 25:29
  Speaker 8: hopefully he goes straight to Patty because as he says,
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: Scousers do not get knocked out, and he did not.
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: I mean truly, that dude, I mean an absolute warrior.
• 25:39
  Speaker 8: It's like every opportunity Justin Gachie had to knock him
• 25:43
  Speaker 8: out and could have it feels like and Patty just
• 25:46
  Speaker 8: I mean relentless.
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: Relentless, was creative in his attacks. Kasey just kept coming
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: in head down, getting into the body a little bit.
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: Hit him multiple times. We're talking about Temple shots, Josh shots.
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: There was a graphic that came up and it was
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: like significant hits and it shows the body. Yeah, fifty
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: four I think we were in the third round. Fifty
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: four significant hits to the head for Patty the batty
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: and he's still getting up his face. My god, at
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: the end of the fight looks crazy. But even when
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: he's sitting there and I love how they do the
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: corners and then you can hear the people talking about
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: what the strategy is and all that, Patty's talking normal
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: during Like he while his face is all deformed, he's
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: still going out there and fighting, swinging his ass off.
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: Gee chie dude. A lot of credit to him. There's
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: a lot of rumors about him possibly hanging up the gloves,
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: putting the gloves on the canvas when it was all finished.
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: He obviously did not do that. He is the innerm
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: Belt now.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: I can't wait to see what with him. One of
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: my favorite things about UFC is after these big fights
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: take place, whoever the winner is a bunch of new
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: lore or old memories come out. And one thing I
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: saw was somebody tried to mug Justin Geichee at gun
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: point one time in a car and Justin Gaichee, the
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: news report was showed the mugger and their face was destroyed,
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: and this person pulled a gun on Gai Chee. Gee
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: Chee disarms them and beat the shit out of him.
• 27:01
  Speaker 8: Like what that's a dream scenario as a UFC fight
• 27:04
  Speaker 8: dream states, go ahead and try.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: Yes, right dude.
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: And he's got a crazy quote.
• 27:10
  Speaker 9: Uh.
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: He was doing like a podcast one time and he's like,
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: if one man can hold you down, to two could
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: rape you. He said that publicly, and I'm watching it.
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: And after you watch Gechee fight, you're you're looking at
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: going holy shit, He's right, He's right. I see the
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: room got a little stiff when I about that, right,
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: Jesus Christ.
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: Boys, post fight was awesome too of that one.
• 27:31
  Speaker 9: Uh.
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: He said something to Patty along lines of like Patty
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: mentioned pre fight that he's gonna bust his face up
• 27:37
  Speaker 5: or we'll see how your face looks, and he's like,
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: looks like your face is the one bust up or
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: something cool like that just like in the moment to
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: even have that ready to.
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: Go as sick.
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: I liked Patty because if I'm him, I probably would
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: have been complaining a little more about that thumb to
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: the eye. I think that really messed multiple and he
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: I'm so surprised post fight he wasn't like that. That
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: really impacted the fight. He lost with class, said like
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: justin Gaigee's a legend.
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: It was awesome growing up to watch him. And it
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: takes a moment, takes a good probably minute and a
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: half just talk about men's mental health.
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: Awesome.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Patty seems like a Patty seems like a really
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: good dude, all time guy. Just the Scottish accent is legendary.
• 28:14
  Speaker 9: Yeah, clean take.
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: He's not Scottish Scouser.
• 28:19
  Speaker 7: It's from Liverpool, is what Scousers are.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: That may be the best accent of all.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: Time that might be up there. That's a take.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: Australians up there, Australian.
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: Clean take, because that's a lot of opinions out there.
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: Australian accent goes hard, just accents in general.
• 28:35
  Speaker 8: If you've never seen the viral video, it's been around
• 28:38
  Speaker 8: a lot, but it's a ring doorbell footage and Patty
• 28:41
  Speaker 8: the Batty shows up and he's like, miss just like,
• 28:44
  Speaker 8: my dog just took a messy, sloppy shit out here.
• 28:48
  Speaker 8: He's like, do you have a bag? And she's like,
• 28:50
  Speaker 8: is that pozzy the bots. He's like, don't worry about it, sweetheart,
• 28:53
  Speaker 8: I'll be there.
• 28:54
  Speaker 7: I'll clean. He's like, are you shure it's a really
• 28:56
  Speaker 7: sloppy ship. It's like, dude, a guy just going up
• 28:59
  Speaker 7: on the ring clean.
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: Jack killed.
• 29:06
  Speaker 8: Yeah, but yeah, I can appreciate a man who's willing
• 29:09
  Speaker 8: to clean up his dog ship when when no one
• 29:12
  Speaker 8: is looking, what do you.
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: Do behind closed doors? The true character of a man
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: right there. I like it so but this, I mean,
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: obviously we did. We're doing an ad reed for Paramount
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: Plus in UFC UH in this episode, and it just
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: seems like they have just fight after fight after fight.
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: It's there. It's gonna be a hell of a year
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: for UFC, A hell of a year ZUFA boxing as well.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: I know, Dana just started that this year. Their first
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: fight was on Friday, went really well for them. They're
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: really excited. He was on the podium talking about how
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: people are to look back at the end of this year,
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: but I can't believe they did that in one year
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: of this boxing. So Dana maybe the greatest fight promoter
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: of all time. He's not taking steps on steps on steps,
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: just adding to the legacy that is Dana White. It's
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: absolutely beautiful. Let's talk about the guest seat that we

• 31:59
  Speaker 4: story you're going to hear about josh Pat's grandfather. It

• 32:08
  Speaker 4: I tell you the story, you're gonna think it's not real.

  Speaker 4: just a quick, little nice clap. He made it, he
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: did it, he got it all done. We were just
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: discussing the under over of who's going to make it
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: to the shop today, and we clearly hit the over.
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: So we have clump. We got Jack, we got Jared,
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: we got Sure, and we got Mitch and we that's
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: it right in myself, So six guys made it to
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: the shop. Obviously, you see to my right, we're missing
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: our special boy. Our special boy is gone. Our hearts
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: are with him. He has one area in his house
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: where he can get some sort of cell signal out.
• 33:17
  Speaker 4: Last night he started firing off texts and I'm thinking
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: to myself, buddy, we've handled this but all good, and
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: he's just panic texting over and over and over again.
• 33:27
  Speaker 9: Should we just called this the Will Compton memorial episode,
• 33:32
  Speaker 9: even though he's still alive.
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: It has to it should absolutely because you could, dude,
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: you can feel it. I don't know why he would
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: just send me text randomly like you get this. I'm like, yeah,
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: I got it. And there was a few hours there
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: where I was the only person he could text, and
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: it was the most communication I was able to have
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: with will outside of Bustle with the boys in three years.
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: You could just tell he's going stir crazy. He's losing
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: his mind a little bit in that house all by himself.
• 33:57
  Speaker 9: You can see when the flame on the end of
• 34:00
  Speaker 9: the stick starts to die out. Yeah, and the wolves
• 34:02
  Speaker 9: close in and and there's no there's no more time
• 34:06
  Speaker 9: for shields or emotional fences. You just kind of you
• 34:10
  Speaker 9: spill your heart out because you kind of know this
• 34:12
  Speaker 9: is it. That's been, that's been William over the past
• 34:15
  Speaker 9: forty eight Right.
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: It's so fun for him when he's at Target and
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: he's doing the content online. Once once the self service
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: kicked out, he's like, oh no, wo wait you mean.
• 34:24
  Speaker 9: You mean you mean I don't just get to have
• 34:27
  Speaker 9: all fun with this.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: Thing?
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: That could happen, Dude, will Lily thought to himself, I
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: could probably lose power, we could lose food, toilet trees, everything,
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: But at least I got Wi Fi no matter what,
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: and I think it was the one and only thing
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: that went down for him.
• 34:42
  Speaker 7: But he did.
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: He he had a clip and I hope we put
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: it in the show of him driving and he's like,
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: the roads are bad, don't go on the roads. I'm
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: the guy that when a tornado's outside, I'm the dad
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: that walks outside and has to see the tornado and
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: I'm out. I'm literally watching the video outside of my house,
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: trying to feed my animals and stuff like that, thinking
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: all I want to do is just kind of figure
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: out what these roads are really like right now. And
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: it's the curiosity. So it's a it's a big reason
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: why women live so much longer than men. We just
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: the dumb curiosity. But I digress. I want to give
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: you the floor for a second, because this week you've
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: done an incredible job of giving Will and I updates,
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: of just saying, hey, this is what's going in You're
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: talking about using big words, about different graphs or saying
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: different things. They're the ones you believe in. It's headed
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: north now, it's back south, but it's definitely gonna head
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: back north again. We're a team. We're in the trenches.
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: It's been a trench talk all year long and twenty
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: twenty five about Josh Paint being the trenches. Now you're
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: no longer in Nashville, and you you fled south. The
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: rumor is Josh pat fled south because he was afraid
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: of the weather. And I love for you to just
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: speak to the masses on kind of that narrative being
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: written about you across the nation right now. I would
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: never say that about you. By the way, I want
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: you to know you're my guy. I would never say
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: that about you.
• 35:57
  Speaker 9: This is one of those rare instances where the narratives
• 36:00
  Speaker 9: I wrote the narrative. I told you, guys, so about
• 36:03
  Speaker 9: a week ago, I started smartening you up to the
• 36:05
  Speaker 9: fact that, hey, the mid term long range models are
• 36:08
  Speaker 9: showing some stuff for us, and at that point the
• 36:11
  Speaker 9: stuff was just going to be historic snowfall and we
• 36:14
  Speaker 9: were gonna At one point me and Clump talked about
• 36:17
  Speaker 9: doing this show today in the parking lot, pretending that
• 36:21
  Speaker 9: we didn't have power so we could just dead sell
• 36:25
  Speaker 9: the fact that we were gathered around a campfire in
• 36:27
  Speaker 9: the parking lot with like inchine hour snowfall rates piling
• 36:30
  Speaker 9: up in our lap. That was fun. Those were the
• 36:32
  Speaker 9: old days. That was a while back, Okay. Then then
• 36:36
  Speaker 9: a different word started to work itself into the equation ice.
• 36:40
  Speaker 9: Now people will look at what Nashville is going through
• 36:42
  Speaker 9: right now. Who grew up up north and say, oh,
• 36:44
  Speaker 9: I'm used to that complete bs. No one's used to
• 36:47
  Speaker 9: ice storms. No one gets used to ice storms. Now,
• 36:50
  Speaker 9: since I have been immersed in weather my whole life,
• 36:53
  Speaker 9: I know what a crippling ice storm is like. So
• 36:56
  Speaker 9: I don't run from tornadoes. In fact, you know, I
• 36:58
  Speaker 9: run towards tornadoes. I chased them in the spring. It's
• 37:00
  Speaker 9: my second favorite passion. I don't flee hurricanes. I actually
• 37:04
  Speaker 9: win Hurricane Matthew, which was our last Cat five US
• 37:07
  Speaker 9: landfalling hurricane hit in the Florida penninth or the Florida Shore.
• 37:11
  Speaker 9: I went down there. So I don't run from any
• 37:13
  Speaker 9: kind of weather. The only weather I will actively run
• 37:16
  Speaker 9: from is an ice storm because it gives you the
• 37:18
  Speaker 9: damage that a tornado gives you. You've seen the trees,
• 37:20
  Speaker 9: so it looks like tornado damage. Basically, it's just way
• 37:23
  Speaker 9: more widespread and you're so powerless. When power goes out,
• 37:27
  Speaker 9: you're literally powerless. So I knew, and I told you
• 37:30
  Speaker 9: guys about seventy two hours ago. I don't like the
• 37:32
  Speaker 9: way this is trending. If the GFS model doesn't make
• 37:35
  Speaker 9: a good, solid comeback here in the eleventh hour, the
• 37:37
  Speaker 9: Euro is gonna win. That's why they call it King Euro.
• 37:40
  Speaker 9: That's why they call the model King Euro this time
• 37:42
  Speaker 9: of year. And if we were going to get what
• 37:43
  Speaker 9: it looked like we were gonna get, which we ended
• 37:45
  Speaker 9: up getting, I didn't want to be a part of it.
• 37:48
  Speaker 9: So I don't think that there's any shame in being
• 37:51
  Speaker 9: in relatively normal forty one degree Columbus, Georgia in the
• 37:55
  Speaker 9: AC Hotel conference room right now, which was graciously given
• 37:59
  Speaker 9: to me for this recording. And now the question becomes,
• 38:03
  Speaker 9: when do I come back? Do I come back? Is
• 38:05
  Speaker 9: there a whole left? That's the question. We will rebuild,
• 38:08
  Speaker 9: we hashtag we will rebuild. It's going to be a
• 38:11
  Speaker 9: long and arduous.
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: Process, dude.
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: So, okay, I want to this this podcast. We we
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: can break down a little bit of college football, but
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: I really want to know the weather, Where did the
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: passion come from? What the hell is GFS you talk
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: about the Euro winning? I'm thinking democracy has done the
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: domestic dollar, like I like, there's so many things. And
• 38:30
  Speaker 4: you made a point when when we were out we
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: traveled to LA for the sam coom and you would
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: hit Will and I in the group chat and Will
• 38:37
  Speaker 4: would say something like we're warriors, blah blah blah, We're
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: gonna bat down the hatches, and I would just be like, okay,
• 38:41
  Speaker 4: thank you, and you'd hit us back with Will has
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: always got like some sort of profound like quote from Gladiator,
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: and Taylor just says the most generic response back, because
• 38:50
  Speaker 4: I'm reading your text and I'm thinking to myself, I
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: got a funnel this shit all the way through chat
• 38:53
  Speaker 4: GBT just to figure out what the hell he's saying.
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: I just know Icepad's snow good. I'm a neanderthal on
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: this whole thing. Yeah, So where did Josh Pat's passion
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: because every story you have is so unique, even though
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: way you found college football without even playing football in
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: high school, where did the passion of weather come into play?
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: All? Right?
• 39:12
  Speaker 9: So when I was growing up, I went to school
• 39:15
  Speaker 9: technically out of district, So I grew up in Harris County, Georgia,
• 39:19
  Speaker 9: which is just north of Columbus. But it's just over
• 39:21
  Speaker 9: the Chattahoochee River, which means it's just over the state
• 39:23
  Speaker 9: line into Georgia. It was in my best interest to
• 39:26
  Speaker 9: go to school in Phoenix City, Alabama, so I could
• 39:30
  Speaker 9: stay at me Mo's house in the afternoon until my
• 39:32
  Speaker 9: parents got off work. So I went to school over
• 39:35
  Speaker 9: in Phoenix City until someone turned us in years later,
• 39:37
  Speaker 9: and that's its own separate story. So anyway, when I
• 39:39
  Speaker 9: would get off school, I would go over to MEMA's
• 39:42
  Speaker 9: house and I would either watch Sports Center or I
• 39:44
  Speaker 9: would watch the Weather Channel or both. And I watched
• 39:47
  Speaker 9: like some Nickelodeon like some stuff like that, but mainly
• 39:50
  Speaker 9: I just watched ESPN and I watched the Weather Channel.
• 39:53
  Speaker 9: And about that time, I'm a little kid in the
• 39:56
  Speaker 9: mid nineties, that's kind of when I first remember watching
• 39:59
  Speaker 9: TV or anything like that. That's kind of when Twister
• 40:01
  Speaker 9: came out, So the concept of people storm chasing really
• 40:05
  Speaker 9: captured me and I got sucked in. Side note, there
• 40:09
  Speaker 9: was a timing my kindergarten year where because I was
• 40:14
  Speaker 9: just glued to the Weather Channel all the time, I
• 40:16
  Speaker 9: learned all my fifty state capitals by the time I
• 40:19
  Speaker 9: was in kindergarten, and everyone rightly thought that was a lie.
• 40:24
  Speaker 9: So the principal brings himself down to my kindergarten class
• 40:27
  Speaker 9: one day because the kindergarten teacher was bragging about me
• 40:29
  Speaker 9: to the rest of the school. I guess in like
• 40:31
  Speaker 9: the teacher's lunch room and the lounge and stuff like that.
• 40:34
  Speaker 9: So principal comes down there, and I think they had
• 40:36
  Speaker 9: bet money on me amongst themselves. They had bet on
• 40:40
  Speaker 9: whether I could whether I knew Montpellier was the capital
• 40:42
  Speaker 9: of Vermont or whatever, and so I did, And so
• 40:45
  Speaker 9: I think there was some cash that exchange hands because
• 40:48
  Speaker 9: of the Weather Channel teaching me my state capitals by
• 40:50
  Speaker 9: the time I was in kindergarten. So then I grew
• 40:53
  Speaker 9: up and like I've never relinquished that, Like I've never
• 40:57
  Speaker 9: let that go to the point where I've talked to
• 40:59
  Speaker 9: you off care a lot. You asked me like, hey,
• 41:02
  Speaker 9: when when college football gets so big, like when the
• 41:05
  Speaker 9: channel gets so big, Like what do you do? Do
• 41:07
  Speaker 9: you go to the NFL? I don't go to the NFL.
• 41:09
  Speaker 9: Like my next big passion project would be a full
• 41:13
  Speaker 9: on weather based platform. I would love to get into that.
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: That is so wild to me. Then I'm sure like
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: you just seeing these print like this teacher and this
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: principal going back and forth gave you such a sense
• 41:24
  Speaker 4: of pride at five or six years old, whatever age
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: you were, when you're able to recite all the capitals
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: and states that it turned into this passion. But like
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: people have passions, people get excited. They find identities and
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: things that are like, oh, this is great. What made
• 41:39
  Speaker 4: you good? Like when was the first time You're like,
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna take the next step, whether it's buying a
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: weather radar system, whether it's chasing a tornado for the
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: first time, when was the next step for you in
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: the passion category of weather.
• 41:53
  Speaker 9: Okay, you're gonna they're gonna think I'm making this story up.
• 41:55
  Speaker 9: So I don't know what age I was. This is
• 41:59
  Speaker 9: going to sound like a made up story, okay, because
• 42:01
  Speaker 9: it has to do with an ice storm. So there's
• 42:03
  Speaker 9: a lot of correlation here. When I was a kid,
• 42:07
  Speaker 9: my grandpa died and we had to go up to Chattanooga, Tennessee,
• 42:11
  Speaker 9: or Lookout Mountain, which is really close to Chattanooga for
• 42:14
  Speaker 9: his funeral. So he got cremated and he wanted his
• 42:17
  Speaker 9: ashes spread about this lake that he used to fish
• 42:20
  Speaker 9: in like up in the mountains in Tennessee. So I'm little, like,
• 42:23
  Speaker 9: I'm way under ten years old, so I kind of
• 42:26
  Speaker 9: loosely understand what's going on. So we go up there,
• 42:28
  Speaker 9: it's in the middle of winter. We have I think,
• 42:30
  Speaker 9: a service, and then we're going to go spread his
• 42:33
  Speaker 9: ashes the next day. So this is my mom's dad.
• 42:36
  Speaker 9: My dad is up there as well, who you know
• 42:39
  Speaker 9: very well. And so the forecast says there's going to
• 42:43
  Speaker 9: be a big ice storm. So it's decided that the
• 42:46
  Speaker 9: rest of the family, me included, we're going to go
• 42:48
  Speaker 9: home early. My mom's going to stay up there. They're
• 42:51
  Speaker 9: going to spread the ashes and whatnot, and so you know,
• 42:53
  Speaker 9: it's too risky for everyone to stay up there. So
• 42:55
  Speaker 9: I remember us going home. So I remember that was
• 42:57
  Speaker 9: the first time I really learned howling an ice storm
• 43:00
  Speaker 9: could be, that we had to like miss Peapau's funeral
• 43:03
  Speaker 9: ash spreading because of it. Okay, that's not the part
• 43:07
  Speaker 9: that sounds crazy. Years later, unrelated to the ice storm,
• 43:10
  Speaker 9: I get home from school one day, this is like
• 43:12
  Speaker 9: five to ten years later. I get home from school
• 43:14
  Speaker 9: one day. My mom has this look on her face
• 43:17
  Speaker 9: like someone just hit her with a baseball bat, and
• 43:19
  Speaker 9: I'm like what she said, So I need you to
• 43:22
  Speaker 9: sit down. Never good, never good.
• 43:24
  Speaker 4: That's terrible.
• 43:25
  Speaker 9: I mean that got dropped only about three times in
• 43:27
  Speaker 9: my whole life, so this was one of them. Hey,
• 43:29
  Speaker 9: need you to sit down. So it's about Pea Paul
• 43:31
  Speaker 9: And I said, Pepa's been dead like seven or eight years.
• 43:34
  Speaker 9: I don't know what this could possibly pertain to. She said,
• 43:37
  Speaker 9: do you remember when we went up there to spread
• 43:39
  Speaker 9: his ashes? I said, well, I remember you did. I
• 43:41
  Speaker 9: had to go home early for the ice storm. I
• 43:43
  Speaker 9: still did remember that. She goes, yeah, all right, So
• 43:45
  Speaker 9: you're gonna hear some stuff on the news later today,
• 43:49
  Speaker 9: cause a news crew just left our house. So I'm
• 43:52
  Speaker 9: going to prepare you for it now, okay. Come to
• 43:54
  Speaker 9: find out there was a place up in North Georgia
• 43:57
  Speaker 9: called the Tri State Crematorium that they had sent his
• 44:00
  Speaker 9: body to to be cremated.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 44:03
  Speaker 9: This place had been raided years later, and they discovered
• 44:07
  Speaker 9: bodies stacked on top of each other that hadn't been
• 44:11
  Speaker 9: cremated in a big shed. They discovered bodies thrown in
• 44:14
  Speaker 9: a lake on the property. These people's incinerator had broken,
• 44:19
  Speaker 9: and so instead of handing back human remains, cremated remains,
• 44:22
  Speaker 9: they were basically just handing back firewood ash to people
• 44:25
  Speaker 9: who don't know the difference, because who could really spot that.
• 44:28
  Speaker 9: So we took like firewood ash for my mom did
• 44:32
  Speaker 9: up into the mountains and spread it out and risk
• 44:34
  Speaker 9: their life in an ice storm. And they come to
• 44:36
  Speaker 9: find out his body has just been stacked in this
• 44:38
  Speaker 9: shed the whole time, and they finally identified him because
• 44:40
  Speaker 9: his toe tag was still on him. I'm not making
• 44:43
  Speaker 9: any of this up, and so, yeah, that was my
• 44:46
  Speaker 9: first experience with a nice storm.
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: My friend, dude, what the fuck? Yeah, so Pipa has
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: just been sitting there in like a refrigeration unit for
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: the last ten Oh.
• 44:56
  Speaker 9: No, no, they didn't even do him the courtesy of
• 44:57
  Speaker 9: refrigerating him. No, he's just out in a shed. So
• 45:00
  Speaker 9: is he like disintegrating, Yeah, they just they were on
• 45:03
  Speaker 9: the word.
• 45:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think it is.
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: He was.
• 45:06
  Speaker 9: He composed. He composed his remains because of the tow
• 45:09
  Speaker 9: tag was still so they didn't.
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: Even they didn't embalm him or nothing like that. They
• 45:13
  Speaker 4: just stacked him. And that's okay. I can see where
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: we can find a line here of like that's insane.
• 45:18
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it's a big story, dude. You could, like anybody
• 45:20
  Speaker 9: can google Tri State Crematorium right now and just read
• 45:23
  Speaker 9: all about it. Probably has its own Wikipedia page.
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: That is nuts. So your mom sits you down, she
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: says all this to you. Do you pop on the
• 45:30
  Speaker 4: news that night?
• 45:32
  Speaker 9: Yeah, because she was on the news, got you got this?
• 45:35
  Speaker 9: This is true. This was my mom's fifteen minutes and
• 45:37
  Speaker 9: not the one that she wanted necessarily, but like she
• 45:39
  Speaker 9: got on national news because of this.
• 45:41
  Speaker 4: So do we let's let's try to put a bow
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: on this. Do we get a hold of p Pau's body?
• 45:46
  Speaker 4: Do we finally do the crematorium? And do we go
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: to and spread his ashes?
• 45:50
  Speaker 9: Great question? Yes? And then I was able to go
• 45:53
  Speaker 9: this time, and we went way up like to a
• 45:56
  Speaker 9: We went to such a remote point in the Tennessee
• 45:58
  Speaker 9: wilderness that I question, how did he ever get here?
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: Routinely?
• 46:02
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it was just strictly walking trails and we went
• 46:05
  Speaker 9: up there and spread the ashes. Legit ashes out this time,
• 46:08
  Speaker 9: So I guess all's well that ends well a decade later.
• 46:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, to think that tears were shed over firewood ash
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: though tough, tough, tough, livin. Dude, that is absolutely insane.
• 46:20
  Speaker 4: So your passion came from malpractice. Yeah, your passion came
• 46:26
  Speaker 4: from malpractice. When was the first time you chased the tornado?
• 46:29
  Speaker 4: Because if my understanding of our friendship is correct, your
• 46:32
  Speaker 4: one of your favorite thing to do is chase tornadoes.
• 46:35
  Speaker 4: Let's let's dive into that. Give me and yeah, Oh,
• 46:40
  Speaker 4: I think Josh has already said, Mitch, just in the corner.
• 46:42
  Speaker 4: Can we come in the reference of going to see
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: a tornado? I think that answer has already been answered,
• 46:48
  Speaker 4: Like we've been given. We are going to chase a
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: tornado with you this year. I cannot be more excited
• 46:53
  Speaker 4: for the opportunity. I can't be excited. I'm so excited
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: to be terrified and then watch the vehicles and drive
• 46:59
  Speaker 4: towards the fight as opposed to away from the fight. Yes,
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: similar to what I have done in this ice storm.
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: But you know, no, pat in the back needed first
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: time you chased the chase a storm? Who'd you get
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: hooked up with? What's his name, Red Dog? The Sniffer's
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: who's the guy you work with?
• 47:15
  Speaker 9: Oh, you must be referring to Brad Arnold, the tornado sniffer.
• 47:18
  Speaker 4: The tornado sniffer. Correct, Now, I'm assuming he's not your
• 47:22
  Speaker 4: first chase. You have to work yourself up to the sniffer.
• 47:25
  Speaker 9: Brad Arnold wasn't my first, he wasn't your first.
• 47:27
  Speaker 4: All right, tell me about when you've lost that beautiful
• 47:30
  Speaker 4: tornado card.
• 47:32
  Speaker 9: I want to say it was eight. I want to
• 47:34
  Speaker 9: say you.
• 47:36
  Speaker 4: By the way, just you saying, oh wait, you love tragedy. Right,
• 47:38
  Speaker 4: we talked about your peepa. Now we're talking about a
• 47:40
  Speaker 4: housing market crash. You don't care. You're just chasing down tornadoes.
• 47:44
  Speaker 9: Why does everyone look so glum when I'm talking eight?
• 47:47
  Speaker 9: This is a great year for me. Yes, exact successful chase. No,
• 47:50
  Speaker 9: there was a system that moved through really really weird.
• 47:54
  Speaker 9: So there what are called closed core low systems, which
• 47:57
  Speaker 9: I'm not gonna explain, but anyway, they provide their own
• 47:59
  Speaker 9: cold air. Fascinating. They are notorious for bringing a severe
• 48:04
  Speaker 9: weather signal the one day and then snow the next day.
• 48:06
  Speaker 9: In the South, they're rare, but when they do, they're
• 48:08
  Speaker 9: famous for doing that. So we get an EF two
• 48:10
  Speaker 9: tornado right there in near Harris County where I grew up,
• 48:13
  Speaker 9: and we chased it. We saw that one and then
• 48:16
  Speaker 9: the next day we got seven inches of snow, extremely rare,
• 48:19
  Speaker 9: like the biggest snowfall that we've had where I grew
• 48:21
  Speaker 9: up in my entire lifetime. That was the first one
• 48:24
  Speaker 9: I remember. But as far as doing it the way
• 48:26
  Speaker 9: I want, you got to understand, like, so I grow
• 48:29
  Speaker 9: up way closer to poorer than middle income, so I
• 48:34
  Speaker 9: can't leave, like I can't go anywhere. Traveling is a
• 48:38
  Speaker 9: non starter for me. So I always made it a goal, like, man,
• 48:41
  Speaker 9: if I could ever if I could ever make it,
• 48:43
  Speaker 9: quote unquote, if I were ever financially secure, I would
• 48:46
  Speaker 9: hope that it comes from covering college football, which we
• 48:48
  Speaker 9: ended up accomplishing. But then the dream scenario is you're
• 48:52
  Speaker 9: financially secure and you have your springs free, so you
• 48:55
  Speaker 9: can go chase tornadoes anywhere in the country you want to.
• 48:58
  Speaker 9: So like, that's what we do now. So if it
• 49:01
  Speaker 9: calls for flying to Wichita, or flying to Oklahoma City,
• 49:04
  Speaker 9: or flying to Omaha or Topeka, that's where we go.
• 49:07
  Speaker 9: And then you're in a car, and like I told you,
• 49:09
  Speaker 9: you could be flying right back out of Wichita the
• 49:11
  Speaker 9: next day, or you could end up driving all the
• 49:14
  Speaker 9: way back to Nashville, just because the chase naturally takes
• 49:17
  Speaker 9: you east and you get to a certain point and
• 49:19
  Speaker 9: you're in Arkansas, and you're like, we're already halfway home.
• 49:21
  Speaker 9: Why don't we just drive the rest of the way home.
• 49:24
  Speaker 9: But I love that man. And now so I'm fourteen,
• 49:26
  Speaker 9: I've seen fourteen tornadoes and I think we can get
• 49:29
  Speaker 9: that up to twenty this year.
• 49:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but if a tornado slot sounds like fourteen tornadoes,
• 49:35
  Speaker 4: where does the sniffer come in? Because we remember were
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: flying back from New York a couple months ago, great
• 49:39
  Speaker 4: show on Get Up ESPN. They definitely dialed in the
• 49:42
  Speaker 4: colleg shootble portion and they asked you to come up.
• 49:44
  Speaker 8: You do.
• 49:44
  Speaker 4: You absolutely kill it the entire time on our way back.
• 49:48
  Speaker 4: A lot of stuff going on in the media, Weather's
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: getting kind of crazy, and you're just staring at your
• 49:52
  Speaker 4: phone with all these little dots and colors going on
• 49:55
  Speaker 4: and stuff like that. I don't know what I was
• 49:57
  Speaker 4: going to finish that question with the sniffer. How did
• 50:01
  Speaker 4: you get to the sniffer? You brought him up on
• 50:04
  Speaker 4: the plane and you talk about this guy that can
• 50:06
  Speaker 4: just he can find tornadoes out of thin air. He's
• 50:08
  Speaker 4: one of those guys. He puts the grass near sees
• 50:11
  Speaker 4: the direction of the wind and heads that way.
• 50:13
  Speaker 9: Yeah, like he's in the movie Twister. If you ever
• 50:15
  Speaker 9: see Bill Patson just walk out in a gravel parking
• 50:18
  Speaker 9: lot of a barbecue joint and just pick up some
• 50:21
  Speaker 9: of the gravel and let it fall out of his hand,
• 50:23
  Speaker 9: and then he looks at the sky mysteriously. That's our boy,
• 50:26
  Speaker 9: that's a sniffer. So all right, So here's the scene.
• 50:29
  Speaker 9: When you're chasing these days. YouTube is a fascinating thing
• 50:33
  Speaker 9: in our world. It's changed our lives, but it's changed
• 50:35
  Speaker 9: storm chasing too. So what you'll have is, at any
• 50:39
  Speaker 9: given time, you could have like fifteen other chasers live
• 50:42
  Speaker 9: feeds pulled up on top of your radar products and
• 50:46
  Speaker 9: your GPS products. You just got a wall of monitors
• 50:49
  Speaker 9: in your truck if it's set up the right way.
• 50:51
  Speaker 9: So over time, I don't know any of these people personally.
• 50:54
  Speaker 9: I didn't grow up with him, But you just come
• 50:56
  Speaker 9: to You just come to filter out who the legit,
• 50:58
  Speaker 9: like like Alpha's in the space are so over time,
• 51:02
  Speaker 9: like Brad Arnold, who by the way, is stranded in Franklin,
• 51:05
  Speaker 9: Tennessee as we speak. So shout out to him. Brad
• 51:07
  Speaker 9: Arnold just starts to separate, and like anytime there's a
• 51:11
  Speaker 9: tornado that's touched down or there's one that's emminent, he's
• 51:14
  Speaker 9: always there. His car is always there, his little dot
• 51:17
  Speaker 9: on the map is always there. So it turns out
• 51:21
  Speaker 9: he watches the show. He's a big college football guy,
• 51:23
  Speaker 9: so we just kind of naturally got hooked up. He
• 51:26
  Speaker 9: lives in Huntsville. Most of these dudes live in Oklahoma.
• 51:29
  Speaker 9: He lives in Huntsville, so it makes a lot of sense.
• 51:31
  Speaker 9: Like if we were to ever chase or if we
• 51:33
  Speaker 9: were to stage out of somewhere, you got maybe the
• 51:36
  Speaker 9: best in the world. He's power rated number one right now.
• 51:39
  Speaker 9: I got him power rated number one. I don't know
• 51:41
  Speaker 9: what he's ranked, but he's power rated number one. That's
• 51:44
  Speaker 9: that's our guy and a big fan of busting. So
• 51:47
  Speaker 9: like you don't know it, but you guys are friends
• 51:50
  Speaker 9: as well. Nice and he's down. He's down to a
• 51:52
  Speaker 9: lot of people are down to do a lot of
• 51:54
  Speaker 9: things these days, but he's down to chase the spring.
• 51:56
  Speaker 4: Doug's I never knew I was still about something until
• 52:01
  Speaker 4: you brought it into my life. Like obviously I've seen tornado,
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: but growing up in Arizona, there's zero natural disasters that
• 52:06
  Speaker 4: take place. So as a kid, you wake up in
• 52:08
  Speaker 4: the morning, sons outside, and you put on you know,
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: the news, and it's like ice storm in Nashville, Tennessee,
• 52:14
  Speaker 4: you know, tornado and Topeka, Kansas, and you just sit
• 52:18
  Speaker 4: there and go, hey, that's kind of crazy, and then
• 52:20
  Speaker 4: you go outside and play like it never really sparks
• 52:22
  Speaker 4: in your brain. Yeah, this is like the this is
• 52:25
  Speaker 4: like the It's just the craziest thought process. So for
• 52:28
  Speaker 4: the fact that me, Will you and the Sniffer are
• 52:30
  Speaker 4: going to head out in the spring, I cannot wait
• 52:33
  Speaker 4: for the opportunity to stare at one of these bad boys.
• 52:36
  Speaker 4: Because I remember being in Michigan. I think it was
• 52:38
  Speaker 4: my second year. I just moved into a house with
• 52:40
  Speaker 4: a couple of football players and there's a couple of
• 52:43
  Speaker 4: girls on the other side, and we became friends with them.
• 52:45
  Speaker 4: But like the first like I would say, March there,
• 52:48
  Speaker 4: all of a sudden, sirens start going off and these
• 52:51
  Speaker 4: cats are from the Midwest, and like, hey, we gotta
• 52:53
  Speaker 4: go down the basement. I'm learning all this in real
• 52:55
  Speaker 4: times where I'm playing it cool, but I'm like also
• 52:58
  Speaker 4: in like a massive panic mode of what's going on
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: because they're talking about how if this happens, we all
• 53:03
  Speaker 4: do X, Y and Z. If the power outs, we
• 53:04
  Speaker 4: have to be able to get out. And there's so
• 53:06
  Speaker 4: many different variables that take place. What's it like for
• 53:11
  Speaker 4: you when you're chasing these storms and there's so much
• 53:15
  Speaker 4: damage that takes place in these towns, these cities wherever.
• 53:18
  Speaker 4: It might be, Like, what is the move after the
• 53:21
  Speaker 4: tornado ends?
• 53:25
  Speaker 9: Can be really scary, It can be really traumatizing. So
• 53:27
  Speaker 9: I've been in this situation a few times, so what
• 53:29
  Speaker 9: you do. You can have different purposes for going out there.
• 53:33
  Speaker 9: Some people are working on federal grants and they're actually
• 53:36
  Speaker 9: doing work for the government. Many of the many others
• 53:39
  Speaker 9: have like big successful weather franchises that they run independently.
• 53:44
  Speaker 9: They're gathering content no differently than we are right now.
• 53:48
  Speaker 9: But everybody kind of has the understanding that, all right,
• 53:51
  Speaker 9: you're out here for whatever reason you're out here for.
• 53:53
  Speaker 9: But there's this mutual understanding in the community that everyone's
• 53:56
  Speaker 9: here and in a moment's time, you could come a
• 54:00
  Speaker 9: first responder. It could immediately turn into search and rescue.
• 54:04
  Speaker 9: Now you got to walk a fine line there because
• 54:07
  Speaker 9: not everyone is trained first responder, and so there's a
• 54:10
  Speaker 9: point where you could be getting in the way, you
• 54:12
  Speaker 9: could be doing more harm than good. But there's also
• 54:14
  Speaker 9: a point where, like I mean, if you're in the
• 54:15
  Speaker 9: middle of a disaster zone and no one's there, there
• 54:19
  Speaker 9: are no blinking lights. Also, it's really crazy cause ninety
• 54:23
  Speaker 9: nine times out of one hundred, power has been knocked out,
• 54:25
  Speaker 9: so there's no sound and it's really really surreal. It's
• 54:28
  Speaker 9: like a movie scene. So you got to do whatever
• 54:30
  Speaker 9: you can, and so you're always ready for that. You're
• 54:32
  Speaker 9: in the middle of a chase, and you know, especially
• 54:35
  Speaker 9: if you're near a tornado or you're documenting one, within
• 54:38
  Speaker 9: the next five minutes, you could be totally switched to
• 54:41
  Speaker 9: searching through debris and search and rescue mode, your dodge
• 54:43
  Speaker 9: in live power lines, your dodge in lightning as well,
• 54:46
  Speaker 9: which is my biggest fear. So, like there's a high
• 54:50
  Speaker 9: risk and like high volatility element into the chase. But
• 54:54
  Speaker 9: remember when you asked me on that flight back, you said,
• 54:59
  Speaker 9: what's it like when you see a tornado? What's it
• 55:02
  Speaker 9: like when you actually see it. It's because people ask
• 55:04
  Speaker 9: me that, so often, I had to come up with
• 55:06
  Speaker 9: this explanation. So the way I explained it, the way
• 55:10
  Speaker 9: I explained the adrenaline rush, it's very sudden. It's like
• 55:14
  Speaker 9: if you combined the feeling of cresting at the top
• 55:18
  Speaker 9: of a roller coaster when you start to head down
• 55:20
  Speaker 9: on a roller coaster, and you combine that with sex,
• 55:24
  Speaker 9: you combine that with the feeling you get in the
• 55:28
  Speaker 9: best haunted house you've ever been in. All of those
• 55:31
  Speaker 9: things thrown into one are kind of a loose comparison
• 55:36
  Speaker 9: to the like the kind of adrenaline when you're right
• 55:40
  Speaker 9: there in harms way next two like a legit tornado.
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: It's like your three favorite things.
• 55:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's like my three favorite things. The thing
• 55:46
  Speaker 4: that you're doing right now to me is one of
• 55:49
  Speaker 4: could be the greatest thing in a friendship or your
• 55:51
  Speaker 4: worst nightmare. And so it's essentially the same thing as
• 55:55
  Speaker 4: when you're when you go to a town, when you
• 55:57
  Speaker 4: bring your boys to your town that you grew up
• 55:59
  Speaker 4: in and there's that one in a restaurant that you're like,
• 56:01
  Speaker 4: you guys have got to go here, eat here, because
• 56:03
  Speaker 4: it's zips. This is you are essentially talking about my zips.
• 56:07
  Speaker 4: Right now to where you're gonna bring me along for
• 56:10
  Speaker 4: this ride. And the possibility that we talk to talk
• 56:14
  Speaker 4: about on this plane as well is you could go
• 56:16
  Speaker 4: out there for six days and not see a damn thing.
• 56:18
  Speaker 4: There is that element to where Josh Pate lets down
• 56:22
  Speaker 4: the boys, similar the way Will was framing you during
• 56:26
  Speaker 4: the Fiesta Bowl type of thing before we got that
• 56:28
  Speaker 4: cleared up. Thankfully for JP, that fear is massive, suld
• 56:33
  Speaker 4: Is it you fell in your stomach right now?
• 56:36
  Speaker 9: Yes? No, but it's not up to me. So there's
• 56:38
  Speaker 9: a calmness in the fact that it's out of my
• 56:40
  Speaker 9: hands because I've been in this position myself, like I've
• 56:44
  Speaker 9: spent money on gas, on flights, on food, on lodging,
• 56:49
  Speaker 9: and you go out there, and the thing about it
• 56:51
  Speaker 9: is sometimes the most sure thing type setup just doesn't deliver.
• 56:56
  Speaker 9: And it's not even necessarily like the weather man's fault.
• 57:00
  Speaker 9: There are a million different variables in the atmosphere, and
• 57:03
  Speaker 9: especially when it comes to stp significant tornado parameter, those
• 57:06
  Speaker 9: things have to be combined in a very very specific
• 57:10
  Speaker 9: combination of ingredients for super cells to form and tornado
• 57:13
  Speaker 9: genesis to happen. Now, when it does sometimes it'll pop
• 57:16
  Speaker 9: off in mass. But if you don't get it, there's
• 57:18
  Speaker 9: a fine line between a big outbreak and completely nothing.
• 57:22
  Speaker 9: Can you get the cap to break that day? So
• 57:25
  Speaker 9: I've experienced that myself. But that's actually what makes the
• 57:29
  Speaker 9: big outbreak day feel the way it feels, because it's
• 57:32
  Speaker 9: not like seeing a thunderstorm. You see those all the time,
• 57:35
  Speaker 9: so they don't mean anything to you. It means something
• 57:38
  Speaker 9: when you see a tornado because it's hard to chase
• 57:40
  Speaker 9: those things down.
• 57:41
  Speaker 4: When you get to we're looking at Nashville and all
• 57:44
  Speaker 4: the debris. I'm sure you've seen a lot of photos.
• 57:46
  Speaker 4: Over three hundred thousand people no power. It's a very
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: dangerous situation now that the storm has taken place and
• 57:52
  Speaker 4: everything's frozen over. You being my number one weather man guy,
• 57:56
  Speaker 4: is there a light at the end of this tunnel?
• 57:58
  Speaker 4: Because I heard rumors of I know, like middle of
• 58:00
  Speaker 4: the week it's gonna go get above freezing, but only slightly.
• 58:04
  Speaker 4: So my brain goes to, OK, we're gonna have a
• 58:05
  Speaker 4: little of a melt back to a refreeze. But then
• 58:08
  Speaker 4: I hear there's a rumor if there's a possible another
• 58:10
  Speaker 4: storm on the horizon that can give us the same
• 58:12
  Speaker 4: thing over again. What is your weather man things telling you?
• 58:17
  Speaker 9: Yeah, so I've been monitoring that. I don't feel overly
• 58:21
  Speaker 9: confident that that's gonna happen for Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama right now.
• 58:27
  Speaker 9: I think if that becomes an event this weekend, it's
• 58:29
  Speaker 9: a lot more in eastern seaboard event. But again that's
• 58:32
  Speaker 9: still a little ways off, so it bearies close watching.
• 58:35
  Speaker 9: What you got to watch for in Tennessee is sunlight.
• 58:37
  Speaker 9: You gotta get as many hours of direct sunlight as
• 58:40
  Speaker 9: you can get, which you're eventually gonna get. Like I'm
• 58:42
  Speaker 9: in Georgia right now. I'm planning on coming back up
• 58:45
  Speaker 9: there Wednesday, So like, I think we'll be good by them,
• 58:49
  Speaker 9: unless I text you otherwise. I don't foresee a big
• 58:52
  Speaker 9: event in the near future. So I think we got
• 58:54
  Speaker 9: some time to clean up. It's gonna be cold, but
• 58:56
  Speaker 9: I think we got some time to clean up.
• 58:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, buddy, we got so much damage over here on
• 58:59
  Speaker 4: my side, like just my house in general, fifty thousand dollars.
• 59:05
  Speaker 4: You're just looking around and I'm seeing fences, structures broken down,
• 59:09
  Speaker 4: Like we have this whole compost station and it was
• 59:12
  Speaker 4: there two days ago, and now there's a giant tree
• 59:15
  Speaker 4: and you literally don't even see the compost station anymore.
• 59:18
  Speaker 4: My goats and my dog bear they have debris all
• 59:23
  Speaker 4: around them. Luckily none of those structures, but like fences
• 59:26
  Speaker 4: have been pulled down, wires are hanging. Yesterday, my neighbor,
• 59:31
  Speaker 4: his boss is like, hey, you need to get down
• 59:33
  Speaker 4: to Orlando, Florida. And he's like, I'm literally if you
• 59:36
  Speaker 4: pull out of my house on one side, like a
• 59:39
  Speaker 4: house down, there's a tree. On the other side less
• 59:41
  Speaker 4: than a house down, there's a power line in a tree,
• 59:44
  Speaker 4: there's no way to get out. But on my property,
• 59:46
  Speaker 4: I have a construction path from when we were building
• 59:48
  Speaker 4: the house to get out on the other side. So
• 59:51
  Speaker 4: I take this can am I just bought, and I
• 59:52
  Speaker 4: drive him to the shell station on the corner of
• 59:55
  Speaker 4: Old Hickory and I think Nolansville. I think those are
• 59:58
  Speaker 4: the two I'm not great with streets. Take him there.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 4: He has to drive it into Atlanta. It gets down
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 4: to Orlando after that, but I'm driving back too. And
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 4: the amount of chaos that's taking place, houses with trees
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 4: through the middle of them, like where you go and
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 4: you're on a street and it's like there's no way
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 4: to get around, so you have to turn around and
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 4: go back the other way and find a new way home.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 4: Because that just happened in the last five minutes. I've
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 4: already talked about where I've grown up, but this is
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 4: the worst storm I've personally ever witnessed, and I'm sure
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 4: a lot of people in Nashville have as well.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 9: All Right, So I was thinking about this yesterday. You
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 9: know how when you go through middle school and high school,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 9: how many subjects you have to take that you know,
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 9: even in the moment, I'm never going to use this, Yes, absolutely.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 9: Don't you think that weather awareness should be mandatory to
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 9: be taught in school only because think about, like, all right,
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 9: finance should be taught in school because it affects every
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 9: single person. I think weather awareness, or weather preparedness, or
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 9: at least like a basic functioning working knowledge of weather
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 9: should have to be taught because that's one of the
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 9: very few things in life that's guaranteed to impact everybody.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 9: And like you, you're in Nashville right now, think about
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 9: how many people in the lead up to the storm
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 9: really had no idea what freezing rain was.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 4: Dude, I'm one of them. I sat there and I'm like,
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 4: freezing rain. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 4: to me, because yesterday morning it's twenty eight. It's like
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 4: between twenty five and twenty eight degrees and it's raining,
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 4: and I'm thinking, everything I've been taught about weather in
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 4: my life is as soon as it hits thirty two
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 4: and below, it's now snow. It's no longer rain. That's
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 4: not how it works. And I'm watching it's weirdly in
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 4: all this chaos, because the sunlight is out right now,
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 4: you walk inside and it's calm and kind of beautiful,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 4: like if you ignore the fact that there's chaos going
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 4: around around you. You're seeing these limbs that seem like
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 4: they've been decorated for Christmas. Like there's a blanket of
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 4: snow which is actually just ice, and it looks like
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 4: so calm everywhere, and then in the dist it's every
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 4: two or three minutes you're hearing because where I live
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 4: in town, there's it's a lot of forest. You're hearing branches,
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 4: you're hearing trees come down, you're hearing people in the distance,
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 4: and where you're just like, it's crazy how this thing
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 4: can look so beautiful, but also the amount of chaos
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 4: that's taking place within one mile of me is just
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 4: outrageous because it's it's similar to the way you described
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 4: like after the tornado where there's no sound. Oh, you
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 4: can just hear what everybody's going through with an airshot
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 4: because there's nothing else kind of taking that away. It's
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 4: just nuts, ma'am.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 9: So what's really crazy is when you learn the science
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 9: behind it. Because I was in this one time when
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 9: I was a little kid, when I watched the Weather
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 9: Channel describe freezing rain, it made no sense to me
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 9: because I'm like, I've seen it snow when it's thirty
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 9: five degrees outside before, So how could liquid be falling
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 9: out of the sky when it's thirty degrees Yeah, how
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 9: does that work? Well, you learn the science behind it,
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 9: and it really help if I had a grease board.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 9: But like so, if if you have just a still
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 9: column of cold air all the way up to the cloud,
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 9: that snowflake is falling through sub freezing temperatures, so it
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 9: never melts and it just hits the ground as a snowflake.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 9: But sometimes, and this is why I started using the
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 9: terminology warm nose with you last week, sometimes there's a
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 9: warm nose that works its way into the atmosphere just
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 9: above the surface. So there's this weird situation where at
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 9: the surface is below freezing, but just above the surface,
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 9: like two three thousand feet up in the air, it's
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 9: like thirty nine degrees. So a snowflake falls out of
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 9: the clouds, goes through that thirty nine degree air and melts,
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 9: and then it gets right towards the surface, and even
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 9: though it is below freezing towards the surface, it doesn't
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 9: have time to refreeze those gravity is pulling it to
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 9: the ground pretty quickly, so it doesn't freeze until after
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 9: it hits the ground. So it falls as liquid hits
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 9: the ground, freezes on contact, and then it just covers
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 9: everything like you're seeing right now. That's why the eye storm.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 9: Freezing rain is one hundred times more dangerous than anything else.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 9: And that's why once I realized that's what we were getting,
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 9: I bailed.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 4: See you catch you laters, Yeah, because then you start
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 4: to read about like a half inch of rain adds
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 4: this many hundred pounds on branches. Yeah, And you know, like, dude,
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 4: when I woke up in the morning because our power
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 4: went out around like four am two days ago, and
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 4: the generator had not kicked on yet. And I, you know,
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 4: I'll tell my own heroic story in a second. But
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 4: I'm outside kind of going around making sure everyone's good.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 4: And there are flashes of green and blue lights through
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 4: the clouds, and the clouds are very low at this point,
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 4: but you're seeing these flashes. And I saw, like on
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 4: Twitter or wherever I was getting my weather that this
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 4: is this is probably a lightning storm coming with this.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 4: So I'm thinking to myself, Oh, this is just lightning.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 4: Come to find out, these are transformers exploding because of
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 4: the ice wearing it down in the amount of weight
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 4: that's taking. It's pulling these things off of these wooden
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 4: poles and sometimes the metal poles as well, to where
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 4: transformers are exploding in the distance where you see like
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 4: you sort of really, oh, these are just little bombs
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 4: going off all around Nashville, and it's just nuts. And
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 4: then I had to go and Buddy, I had to
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 4: fix my own generator. It was almost the end of
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 4: me and Tailor because she's sitting on the as she's
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 4: in the bathroom of our house and I'm on the outside,
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 4: and she's talking about event, and I'm reading the event,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 4: I'm like, it's just like side panel and there's obviously
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 4: multiple sides, and I'm like yelling at her because I'm like,
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 4: now freezing, I'm getting rained on in thirty degree weather.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 4: And it was chaos for a minute and ended up
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 4: getting it cranked on. We're running just fine at the
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 4: one household. But it is I've never seen anything like
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 4: this in my entire life, and it's just crazy that
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 4: it's exactly how you predicted it as it was coming.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 9: Because you know what's crazy about the power flashes? Tell
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 9: me it's the so ice storms and tornadoes you look
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 9: for the exact same thing. You look for those power flashes, really,
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 9: and in whether it's ice storm or whether it's tornado,
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 9: a tornado is a little more violent in the moment. Obviously.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 9: That's one of the telltale signs that a tornado's on
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 9: the ground is when you see the power flashes, because
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 9: you know that's just transformers blowing and there's really only
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 9: one thing that's going to do that, and that's tornado
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 9: on the ground. But in the event of the ice storm,
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 9: same things happening, but it's for a far different reason.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 9: It's because of what you just said is happening to
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 9: all those tree branches. And that's why I told you,
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 9: because I know you live in like a really wooded area.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 9: If you live in wooded areas, especially, you're just screwed.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 9: If you get significant ice, Like half an inch or
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 9: more of ice is catastrophic because it's a one hundred
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 9: percent certainty tree tree branches are going to come down. Trees,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 9: and they're entirety you're going to come down, And there's
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 9: only so many ways they can fall. And if you
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 9: consider how many trees you have around you, eventually one
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 9: of them is going to fall in a power line.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 9: And really all it takes is one to fall at
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 9: the right place to knock out everybody's power.
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, not exactly what happened in my house, dude. We
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 4: literally walked outside and I hear a branch go down.
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 4: It's very close. So I look over in the direction
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 4: and I see a live wire kind of ripping.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 9: Around on my show scary, So sary.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 4: Clearly a far enough distance away, I felt like, but
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 4: just seeing it, I'm like, this is insane. What's going
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 4: down right now? And it's just crazy. And then I
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 4: think to myself, Like my neighbor across the street, I
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 4: don't even know them. I kind of like keep to
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 4: myself in my neighborhood. But like they get a hold
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 4: of my wife's number, and this guy has a pacemaker
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 4: and he's like, we don't have power. So I'm like
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 4: going over there bringing it to my house, charging his pacemaker,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 4: bringing it back. I got a neighbor that my kids
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 4: hang out with, their family is now in my house,
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 4: and I'm like trying to house people because I'm not
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 4: the only house on the block that has any power
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 4: right now. And it's like there's a feeling of a
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 4: rewarding feeling of being able to like help people in
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 4: this situation, but also it's like what's gonna happen when
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 4: it's all cleared up? Because pipe pipes are bursting. I've
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 4: already we've already talked about the amount of damage I
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 4: have in my house. Luckily, I'll be able to like
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 4: fix those things and get him done. But a lot
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 4: of people around me are just for months, possibly a year,
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 4: of are going to have like repercussions for the things
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 4: that are taking place in Nashville, which is just you know,
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 4: you have a lot of empathy and a lot of
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 4: gratitude for you, and you just hope everyone's all right.
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 9: Yeah. The staff was asking me when I told them
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 9: Thursday or Wednesday or Tuesday. I told them I'm considering
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 9: going out of town and they were like why, And
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 9: then we got past the whole joking around, Oh, you're
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 9: running from the weather, and I explained to him, no,
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 9: I'm not joking. I'm legit running from the weather. And
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 9: they were like, oh, you're serious, Okay, explain to us
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 9: why and I explained, well, here's what's going to happen
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 9: with the power. So, in fairness to them, they know
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 9: nothing about weather. So they were like, but the power
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 9: goes out sometimes in storms. Why does that mean you leave?
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 9: Do you leave every time you think the power is
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 9: going to go out? And I said no, the extended
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 9: period of time the power could be out, combined with
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 9: temperatures and what it's like the single digits last night,
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 9: that it's a really big deal because like when thunderstorms
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 9: knock out the power, I don't know that since I
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 9: lived in Nashville, my power has ever been out more
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 9: than three hours, except when the tornado hit my building
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 9: in twenty twenty. That was a different story. But like
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 9: other than that, just normal power outages, ANYS is really
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 9: good about getting that stuff back on. They are powerless
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 9: on some of this stuff to get it back on
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 9: because it takes weeks and weeks and weeks, because you're
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 9: not just like reattaching a line. You're not just resetting anything.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 9: You have to physically rebuild the infrastructure of your power grid.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 9: It doesn't matter if you have the best in the
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 9: world and they all work overtime and they bring in
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 9: crews from surrounding counties. You're talking about weeks, two, potentially
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 9: sometimes months that that stuff takes to get fixed.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I was just texting with my wife before you
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 4: jumped on, and she works with this charity company called
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 4: Home Street Home. This guy named Steve. It's an amazing story.
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 4: He was lost his job, end up being homeless. He thought, Okay,
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 4: this will be a couple couple of weeks, ends up
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 4: being I believe closer to a year that he's on
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 4: the streets like no home, nowhere to go, sleeping under tunnels.
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 4: And once he got himself financially stable, he pulled himself
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 4: out of the situation and now his whole mission is
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 4: taking care of the homeless, getting them on their feet,
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 4: giving them the tools in order to carry on with
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 4: their life and get back up to where they should be.
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 4: He just hit my wife up, like we are that
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 4: we're overdone, we have no more money, we're messed up.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 4: There's like there are people dying right now, which is
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 4: just you know, it's terrible. It's terrible, and there's not
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 4: a whole lot to go off that other than just
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 4: like you just hope everybody's okay, and so that's all
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 4: I got. It's probably not a great follow up to
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 4: that for you to be there.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 9: I've always been a believer that the way that they
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 9: evacuate an area when a hurricane is imminent should be
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 9: the same way you evacuate an area when you know
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 9: an ice storm is imminent. The problem is a hurricane
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 9: is going to make landfall at a specific place, and
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 9: then it's going to move inland. This thing, like if
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 9: you look at the track of it, you're talking about
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 9: anywhere from southeastern Arkansas through like Oxford, Mississippi, up through Memphis, Jackson, Nashville, Knoxville,
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 9: Like you've got an extended, very very extended swath of
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 9: land where it's kind of it's not feasible to evacuate
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 9: that large a chunk of land. So people like, that's
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 9: why you got to prioritize like the elderly you're dude
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 9: on a pacemaker for example. Like I mean, if you
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 9: if you lose power, it's gonna suck, but you're you're
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 9: in the prime of your life, you're gonna be okay, probably, Yeah,
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 9: but if you're eighty five years old, especially if you're
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 9: alone like that, that's something that's happening there right now.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it is. Uh, it's just crazy, man, And this conversation,
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 4: if it's you brought it up. But like having education
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 4: as a young as a young lad, being able to
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 4: understand weather and what you do in certain situations of tragedy,
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 4: whether it's a tornado and ice storm, a giant thunderstorm
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 4: that breaks out power, Like knowing what you should and
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 4: should not do, because I'm guilty of it myself and
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 4: I'm sure many other that are listening to this episode.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 4: Is like, when this is all happening, I'm thinking to myself, Okay,
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 4: I gotta have food. If we don't have power, I
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 4: have firewood, and then everything else I can just kind
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 4: of figure out there's so many more layers of what
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 4: you need, from the salting of the driveway, how to
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 4: site to assault the driveway, shoveling the snow, just like
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 4: the preparation that takes place in order to be mobile
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 4: in case disaster strikes. And it's just me. I got
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 4: a buddy of mine who, like, I think, halfway through
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 4: the storm, he's like, we gotta go. We're going south,
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 4: and I think he's like, uh, he's from like southern Georgia,
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 4: so who's going to see his family there? It's just nuts,
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 4: all right, lady job, But we ended up this episode
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 4: to bring you rose sparks. All right, let me explain
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 4: why guys keep talking about roast sparks. You hear the
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 4: stories about a guy he's saying, once he started taking it,
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 4: their confidence went through the roof, and suddenly date nights
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 4: just felt a whole lot different. After it dissolves under
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 4: your tongue. You get you get hard, boys, listen to me,
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 4: you get rock hard and fifteen minutes on average, that's fast.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 4: No planning your whole day around it. This hasn't gotta
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 4: I got a date night. Four hours later, I'm gonna
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 4: pop the pill. And then all those things. This is
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 4: something that dissolves around your tongue. We're talking about fifteen
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 4: minutes on average, and these boys, it's not just a
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 4: one time and you're done. They last for thirty six hours,
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 4: which means he'll be ready all weekend, not just one moment.
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 4: That's also why guys on Roast Sparks report their partners
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 4: we're more satisfied in bed. Confidence changes everything. It's something
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 4: you keep on hand. When the signal starts to she's
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 4: the the lady of yours, starts giving you those eyes,
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 4: she starts swrolling around that straw on the drink and
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 4: kind of looks up real slow at you. That's a signal. Boys,
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 4: no stress, no scrambling. So when you want to get
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 4: hard fast and be sex ready for up to thirty
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 4: six hours, you've got to check out Row Sparks. Thank

• 1:14:27
  Speaker 4: lot of your time on the weather. We haven't really
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 4: spoken since you were crowned the locker room Champion and dude,
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 4: I can't believe Miami was able to hang that long
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 4: with Indiana. I mean, it was back and forth like
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 4: any or Miami could have easily won that game. But
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 4: what are your takeaways from we'll start small. Your takeaways
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 4: from this game seeing an ACC team and a Big
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 4: ten team for the third time winning a national championship
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 4: that game, what was your biggest take away from those
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 4: two teams?
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 9: First off? What a game?
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 9: And and I mean if I think, I don't think
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 9: Mario would admit this, but I think in his heart
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 9: of hearts, if you told him that morning, I'm going
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 9: to give you the ball first and ten midfield with
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 9: a minute left down six, will you take that? I
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 9: think he would have taken it.
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 9: That's exactly where they were. So you've seen the movie
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 9: The Perfect Storm.
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 4: Right, Yes, beautiful and heartbreaking.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 9: Yeah, And to me, that was that entire game. And
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 9: it's kind of like playing Indiana this season, but that
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 9: game was a great microcosm of what it's been like
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 9: playing Indiana when they're on and Indiana was on that night,
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 9: So there were three different times where Miami probably took
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 9: what should have been a knockout blow. They answer each
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 9: time to the point, like we just said, where they
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 9: have the ball in midfield, like they I fully believe.
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 9: I was standing in the end zone with Chrystobaal's family.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 9: I fully believe I'm about to see a celebration to
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 9: end all celebrations in Miami's building. This is about to
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 9: be surreal. And then Carson Bect just throws a pick
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 9: and it's over. Kind of anti climactic there, but I
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 9: felt like it was. There's such skill in being able
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 9: to trade knockout blows. It's like watching old school, like
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 9: like Muhammad Ali fights before there were any kind of
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 9: regulations on boxing. They're going fifteen rounds and they're just
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 9: annihilating each other and you're sitting there watching saying, not
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 9: only how did he just take that punch to his face?
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 9: How did he deliver one? So in the Perfect Storm,
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 9: and I'm going to spoiler alert it because it's been
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 9: out for a long time, they're going through like unimaginable
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 9: hell on the open seas and they're like a confluence
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 9: of three different storms and they're out there just trying
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 9: to catch some fists. They're trying to feed their families,
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 9: they're trying to get back to the mainland, and they're
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 9: stuck in it, and they're going through it, and there's
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 9: this point where George Clooney and the dude in the
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 9: in the in the captain's chair with him, they like
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 9: kind of resigned themselves to the idea that they're going
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 9: to die, and they're they're fighting it, but they realize
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 9: we're probably gonna die, all right. Then the skies start
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 9: to part a little bit and it starts to let up,
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 9: the rain stops, and they get this look on their
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 9: face like they just got a second chance at life.
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 9: And the second crewman there says, skip, we're gonna make it,
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 9: and George Clooney's looking around, and then the sky start
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 9: to darken again, and then the wind picks up again,
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 9: and then the sun disappears, and then the rain starts
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 9: to fall and the waves pick up, and George Clooney
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 9: looks and says, she's not gonna let us out. And
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 9: that's what it was like watching Miami. There were like
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 9: three different times where Miami feels like, man, we're gonna
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 9: win this game, and every time Indiana had an answer,
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 9: and every time Mendoza makes a play, and in the end.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 9: It's just like they're not gonna let him out. They're
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 9: not gonna let him out. And I fully believe you
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 9: probably took Miami's best punch. Like all things considered, Miami
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 9: gave themselves as good as shot as they could give themselves.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 9: But it was a game, like you said, where if
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 9: Indiana's on, no one's beating them, and they were on
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 9: enough where even Miami's best wasn't gonna beat him.
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's interesting too because when we were talking about
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 4: the locker room, you said, do you believe Miami's best
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 4: game can beat Indiana? And I answered what I really
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 4: thought was the truth, and the answer is yes. But
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 4: I do believe, like you just said, that was Miami's
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 4: best shot at that and it just happened to be
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 4: that Indiana just had a slight edge. And it's no
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 4: shot at Crystaball or Carson Beck or Fletcher or those
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 4: two defensive ends. It's just the storm. It just wasn't
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 4: gonna let you out, and no matter what you did
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 4: and how hard you thought, eventually you were going down
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 4: in that water until the bubble stopped. And it's it
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 4: was beautiful to see because it was two teams that
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 4: we have at one team we haven't seen in forever
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 4: in a national championship, and the other team is hasn't
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 4: been good in the history of their program in college football.
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 4: And it was just amazing to watch two unique brands
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 4: go after it for something that mattered so much, and
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 4: to see like Fernanda Mendozo with the game on the line,
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 4: like call a draw called, where he makes a guy missed,
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 4: dives into the end zone, gets hit early in the game,
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 4: multiple late hits that could have been called on the
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 4: Miami defense. It was It was beautiful, It was poetic,
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 4: and I love the fact that Fernana Mendoza's story. I
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 4: love that he referenced the fact that he was a
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 4: two star guy at the end of the game and
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 4: was denied a walk on a walk on scholarship I
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 4: guess to Miami, And now he's on this big press
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 4: tour and he's going to clearly be the number one
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 4: overall pick, and it's just it's incredible to see. My
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 4: question is do we see my Indiana? Is this a
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 4: this is the new standard for Indiana and Kurt Signette,
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 4: who's only lost two games in two years, or did
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 4: they strike lightning in a Bottle, And I know you
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 4: don't truly have that answer, but I do want to
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 4: know your thoughts on when is Indiana go from here?
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 4: This Hoover kid that come from TCU, Like, what a
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 4: amount of pressure that he he has on his shoulders
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 4: to take over for Fernanda Mendoza. There's a lot of
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 4: things that are now taking place. Is Cooper coming back,
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 4: I don't know if he has. With sar rats out,
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 4: A lot of guys are going a lot of those
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 4: jam Ucats that came over to Indiana made the team
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 4: a national championship team. Those guys are gone now. So
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 4: I love to know your thought process on the Indiana
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 4: program at this point.
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 9: Yeah, I think they're there. Like I think they're here.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 9: I think you can write their name on that fifth
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 9: line sort of in the Big ten like we've had
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 9: Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, Oregon. They've been kind of
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 9: penciled in as you expect success from them. Yeah, and
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 9: the big question has been who's going to put their
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 9: name in that fifth line? Now, we were thinking USC
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 9: the whole time, and maybe USC will as well. Just
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 9: to my opinion, from this point moving forward, Indiana is
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 9: solidly in that fifth blank, And that doesn't mean they're
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 9: number five. That just means they've established themselves as the
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 9: fifth mainstay to me in the big ten. So the
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 9: reason I say that is they didn't I don't think
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 9: they caught lightning in a bottle. I think they took
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 9: everyone by surprise, including me. But I don't think they
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 9: caught lightning in a bottle because I don't to say
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 9: that to me insinuates what they just did they probably
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 9: won't be able to replicate. I think they'll be able
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 9: to replicate it now. It's it's a really interesting conversation
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 9: because they're going to have plenty good enough players, the
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 9: staff will be plenty good enough. Also, you got that
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 9: like Roger Banister's sub four minute mile effect, where now
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 9: that everyone has seen it done, it becomes much more
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 9: possible to be done again and again and again in
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 9: the end. So I don't doubt that the proof of
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 9: performance will help them as well. Like you said, they
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 9: established a standard there all that stuff. The one thing
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 9: that's interesting to me is when we were in Atlanta,
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 9: I don't know if you were. I don't think you
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 9: were there. I don't think you were there when I
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 9: had this conversation. I was talking to an Indiana fan
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 9: at the game before the game, and he was just
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 9: kind of talking about, oh man, you picked against us
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 9: so many times this year, but he was like having
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 9: fun about it. So he said, and think about this, bro,
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 9: this is the least talented team that Signetty's gonna have
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 9: because we're gonna get more talented players now, which is
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 9: not false, but he stopped short of saying what I
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 9: think he was implying. What I think he was implying
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 9: is if we're this good now, imagine how much better
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 9: we will be. The one thing I don't believe is
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 9: they'll ever have a better team than they just had.
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 9: They will have more talented teams, I have no doubt
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 9: about that. Maybe next year they will. I don't think
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 9: it is possible for a team in the purest sense
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 9: of what a team is. I don't think it's possible
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 9: to have a better team dynamic than what they just had.
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 9: I don't believe that to be true. So I'm not
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 9: saying that to try and put emergency breaks on expectations
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 9: or anything like that. I'm just trying to say, like
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 9: I always go back to Saban's first years at Alabama.
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 9: He gets there in seven. A year later they go
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 9: to the SEC title game. They're twelve and oho, they
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 9: play t bow and lose. The next year they go undefeated,
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 9: they win the whole thing. And those teams still had
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 9: like some Mike Shula players on those teams. There were
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 9: a few holdouts. It wasn't even all Sabans roster yet.
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 9: And I remember Bama fans thinking, we just want a
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 9: title and our most talented teams are still to come.
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 9: And they were right about that. But if you ask
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 9: Saban about the best teams he had, he'll go back
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 9: and point to those teams and he'll say, you know,
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 9: we never really recreated that unique kind of dynamic because
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 9: the way he put it, which I think is brilliant
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 9: and I think it applies to Indiana, is he said
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 9: those eight to nine teams, those were the last teams
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 9: we ever had where the building was full of what
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 9: can I do for Alabama?
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 1: Guys?
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 9: Every year after that because of our success, because of
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 9: the athletes we were able to recruit, we were really talented,
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 9: but there was always this element of what can Alabama
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 9: do for me in the building, And he said, I
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 9: never really had a group that was like that eight
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 9: to oh nine group. Now they went on to win
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 9: more titles, so it doesn't mean they weren't able to
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 9: replicate success in the form of winning championships. But if
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 9: anyone thinks that kurtz Signetty's going to have better teams
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 9: than he just had, I think you're crazy.
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I love everything you just said, because Indiana's now
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 4: put it to where when you look at the logo,
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 4: your brain doesn't necessarily go to basketball immediately anymore right
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 4: now looking at football, and that's what these kids are
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 4: looking at as well. They see the success. They see
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 4: Sarah who went to JMU, this Cooper kid black in
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 4: the backfield. Fernana Mendoz is the perfect example for all
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 4: these things. Like two star kid goes to cal No
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 4: one's really talking about Fernando Mendozo when he signs his
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 4: letter of intent out of the transfer portal to go
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 4: to Indiana. Yet he's the one that wins the national championship.
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 4: So every kid now is thinking, if I go to Indiana,
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 4: I will get X, Y and Z, and so that
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 4: is it's a terrifying thing. It's also a thing that
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 4: I look at a guy like Kurt Signetti ofv He's
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 4: gonna handle it the similar way that Nick Saban does,
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 4: and he's gonna see it changing because he's been around Saban.
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 4: They butt heads a lot, but they also but heads
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 4: a lot because they're very similarly built and being the
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 4: guy understanding culture and implementing the culture, regardless of the
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 4: certain personalities that they have. So I do agree with
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 4: you that Indiana, although they might not be the same,
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 4: the record will reflects similarly similarly every year because of
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 4: what they've been able to build. When I look at Miami,
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 4: I get a little more pause when I look at
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 4: Miami because you obviously have Malachai Tony, who I think
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 4: he regraded I believe is the correct term. He should
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 4: have been a senior in high school this past year.
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 4: That's absolutely incredible for him to be such a vocal
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 4: point of that offense and one of the best players
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 4: in the entire team. But you're losing Beck, who is
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 4: you know, seventh year in college football, which is still
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 4: such a crazy thing for me to wrap my brain around.
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 4: He they have to find a quarterback, which I don't
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 4: know if they have. I haven't followed very much. They're
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 4: losing Mezi Mezzodeine, Mesidol, Mezzador and Bain who are the
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 4: two guys that anytime you brought up the defense. But yeah,
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 4: their back ends really good. Their front seven is good.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 4: But it's these two guys that allow everything to operate.
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 4: Mario Cristobal, friend of our show, friend of yours? What
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 4: do we think about them? Like, seems like their road
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 4: is a little more touch and go to be, like
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 4: they're gonna be in it every single year now. Their
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 4: path to me seems like, okay, yeah, they're they're in
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 4: the acc. They those fumbles versus SMU and Louisville. But
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 4: I could see them clearly, you know, getting into the playoffs,
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 4: but making that big of a run. That's where I
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 4: find pause.
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 9: I I kind of feel the same way about them
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 9: as I do Indiana, just in a sense that I
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 9: expect them to be there every year. To me, the
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 9: skill is in putting yourself in the playoff picture every
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 9: year and then you hope you peak at the right time,
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 9: you get injury luck and stuff like that. All right,
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 9: So do I put them in that category? Yes, I do.
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 9: I think they're when the dust settles, I think they're
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 9: gonna get Darien mensa that may be done, may not.
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 4: That's a that's a due quarterback.
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 9: Yeah, and it's just a legal thing. He'll be the
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 9: quarterback down there, so they're gonna get him. I think
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 9: his best receivers probably gonna follow him. I just have
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 9: stopped doubting that they're going to backfill with really, really
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 9: solid replacements for the big time guys.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 1: That they're losing.
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 9: I think that you just saw in only one year
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 9: have big a ton of turnaround they had defensively, Like
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 9: they were woeful when cam Wood was their defense, and
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 9: they hired heathermana from Minnesota, and they just turned that
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 9: thing around. And I mean, honestly, I think the results
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 9: they got last year should have taken two years to get,
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 9: but they got them last year. So I think they'll continue,
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 9: They'll continue being able to win on that side of
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 9: the ball. I just think every year further you've gotten
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 9: into Mario being there, you've progressed, and every year further
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 9: you've gotten in, the team looks more and more like
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 9: what a Mario Chris ball team should look. That's why
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 9: they were able to do what they did. Like how
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 9: did they beat Ohio State? They just bloodied them that
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 9: no one else does that to Ohio State this year
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 9: at least, but they did, and then they did it
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 9: against A and M before that, and that's how they
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 9: were able to at least hang with Indiana and make
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 9: it a game against Indiana. So in that sense, I
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 9: think it'll be there. I just think in January especially
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 9: or February or even spring practice, when we're looking at
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 9: this stuff, we're so far away, kind of like that
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 9: weather thing when we're a week away from it. We
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 9: got a general idea of what could be in the vicinity,
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 9: but nailing down the specifics you got to be twenty
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 9: four to forty eight seventy two hours out. Maybe at
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 9: that point you kind of know. So like with Miami,
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 9: I mean, what does the intel out of the scrimmage
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 9: one in fall camp sound like? Do they have any
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 9: key injuries? Malachi Tony. You know, we watched Ryan Williams
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 9: and Jeremiah Smith pop as true freshmen, and then this
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 9: past year were their second years. Williams fell off a cliff,
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 9: Jeremiah Smith was still legit. And the point there is
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 9: it's not just an automatic that when you're a star
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 9: as a true freshman that you automatically scale that performance
• 1:28:30
  Speaker 9: level linearly in year two, so there's a lot of
• 1:28:33
  Speaker 9: unknown That's why I speak very generically about teams this
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 9: time of year, and I say they're gonna be in
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 9: the hunt. I think they're gonna be in the hunt.
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 9: The wild thing about them is they played for a
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 9: national title before they've played for an ACC title on Memorial.
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 9: That to me is insane.
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 4: That is just crazy. And people now are looking at
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 4: like Clempson as like, oh that's a dead dog. But
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 4: you never know what's gonna happen with them as well.
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 4: Dabo Sweeney as much as Hey he got this year,
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 4: it's like, could just bring them back out of the fold.
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 4: He has a tendency to do that when they have
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 4: a down year, a big bounce back right after that.
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 4: So even though the AC is not stacked, and we've
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 4: argued about you know, they're a little more irrelevant, which
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 4: you know, Miami brought them back in a lot of ways,
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 4: there's still that one or two teams in there that
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 4: can also make a big push at the end. But
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 4: you're absolutely right when it comes to injuries looking down
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 4: range too far this early in the year, it's more
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 4: fun to talk about than it is to put your
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 4: stamp of approval. We can do that in August when
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 4: we have our very exciting things coming up that we
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 4: can break at some point. But it's very interesting.
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 4: I always talk about Michigan with you, but you had
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 4: a clip come out about how Whittingham there's young nucleus
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 4: of team. There's a lot of optimism. You see the
• 1:29:43
  Speaker 4: fan base. You're kind of living with the fan base
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 4: as far as like the way the optimism goes. I'm
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 4: as a fan sitting there being like, oh my god,
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 4: the potential. The potential that this team has this year
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 4: is a playoff caliber team. Not just a playoff caliber team,
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 4: but a team that can actually go maybe get a
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 4: couple chunks, even with the schedule that they have. But
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 4: then we just got done talking about mayor Chris Well,
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 4: but more importantly Kurt Signetti and Kurt Signetti he has
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 4: a lot of famous quotes, but one of the ones
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 4: I love the most is he takes production over potential.
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 4: And what Michigan's dealing with right now is we have
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 4: a shitload of potential going into the season and not
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 4: so much production. And that is where my pause is.
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 4: So I love a little more of an outlook professional
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 4: view on the Michigan Wolverines, Barring injury, barring all the things,
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 4: how do we feel, as two Michigan Wolverine fans right
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 4: now about this team?
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 8: Yeah?
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 9: Remember what Signetti was having due though, So up until
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 9: five seconds ago, Kurt Signetti slash Indiana could not attract premiere,
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 9: highly rated players, highly rated talent. So what he had
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 9: to do was he had to go bargain barrel shopping,
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 9: and out of that crop of players, he's saying, I
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 9: trust the production over the potential. Now, I think even
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 9: he'll get into an area where, look, they can knock
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 9: on recruiting rankings all they want to. I promise you,
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 9: if a five star receiver wants to commit to Indiana,
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 9: they're not turning them away. I promise you they're not.
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 9: And I promise you'll probably see that kid on the
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 9: field as a true freshman. Yeah, I promise you that
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 9: stuff will happen. So at Michigan, we're talking about a
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 9: different little caliber of athlete from a recruiting ranking standpoint,
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 9: and that's its own conversation, and people have really flawed
• 1:31:25
  Speaker 9: theories about that stuff. But fifty thousand foot there is
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 9: no better forward facing predictive measurement in high school sports
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 9: now than recruiting rankings fifty thousand feet. Michigan traffics very
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 9: well in that category. So if my unproven potential is
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 9: really high level athletes that most other schools wanted, I'm
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 9: okay with rolling the dice that Kyle Whittingham will be
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 9: able to get the most out of them. I'll take
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 9: that risk. In other words, but the point I was
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 9: making the video you're talking about in the Mood Trackers
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 9: segment we did was at least now we know, like
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 9: at least now there's no me showing up to the
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 9: shop on a Wednesday, and before we start recruiting recording,
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 9: me and you were talking twenty minutes about what we're
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 9: hearing behind the scenes at Michigan, what could be going on,
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 9: what could be just around the corner or hidden behind
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 9: this curtain we know now, so we know the NCAA
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 9: stuff's done. No one's mentioning Connor stallions anymore. No one's
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 9: mentioning Harbaugh anymore. No one's mentioning any investigation. No one's mentioning,
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 9: hey man, have you heard this about Sharon? No one's
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 9: mentioned in that. So we're on the other side of
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 9: that now, and now it's just hey, let's play ball.
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 9: Let's roll it out there, spot the ball, let's go.
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 9: And we got a guy who was one of the
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 9: winningest head coaches in the history of college football, and
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 9: Kyle Whittingham who very clearly has tread left on his tires. Also,
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 9: if you believe in the chip on the shoulder added
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 9: fuel source, imagine that guy who was told time for
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 9: you to move on at Utah and then it just
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 9: so happens the Michigan jobs open. So the Michigan job,
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 9: maybe when he was otherwise stagnating in his career, reinvigorate.
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 9: I think the same thing may happen when James Franklin
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 9: at Virginia Tech. By the way, Yeah, so we may
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 9: see that that element multiple places. You got year two
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 9: with Bryce Underwood, so you kind of try and get
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 9: to see, like does he blossom year one to year two.
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 9: I just think it's so much, so much steadier, a
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 9: sense of footing right now, That's what gives me optimism.
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 9: So I put Michigan in that same category of they'll
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 9: be able to give themselves a puncher's chance, like they'll
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 9: be in the picture this year and then moving forward,
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 9: I have very little doubt they'll be in the picture.
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know definitely this year. Very early. I mean
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 4: after the Oklahoma game, it was like, oh, we are
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 4: not we are talented, but we are misdirected in a
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 4: lot of ways. Then the USC game happens. Then I
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 4: talk myself into Ohio State, which you were on board
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 4: with into the eleventh hour. You were my ice storm
• 1:33:46
  Speaker 4: in late November. But yeah, being a part of the
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 4: University of Michigan Latter Day Saints like I am, I
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 4: kind of like where we're at right now. And it's
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 4: also insane to me that BYU and these Utah programs
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 4: were so a part of the locker room and we
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 4: always bring up American Primeval. Now I'm a part of
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 4: the squad. Dude, Now I'm a part of it. I
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 4: want to ask you about two more teams and then
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 4: I'll let you get out of there. I'm sure your
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 4: beautiful wife is waiting for you to get off so
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 4: you can go do your thing. Your father, Dan Pate,
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 4: finally got the I got the follow on Twitter. You
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 4: let me know quickly, and there would be no way
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 4: for me to ever know that he was following me
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 4: unless you gave me that message. We've exchanged dms, which
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 4: I will screenshot and send to you at a later date.
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 4: But his team, the University of Alabama, I need a
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 4: tempt check on Kalin de boor where we're at. There
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 4: was a whole conversation around the quarterback and is he
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 4: gonna leave? I heard rumors about him possibly going over
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 4: to Tennessee if he didn't get a first round grade
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 4: and he wasn't going to go in the NFL because
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 4: a lot of people were thinking this backup quarterback who
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 4: you know, Garrett Hargas are our number one Alabama fan
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 4: here at the bus was talking about that kid. He's
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 4: the one. He's the truth. You watch him in pregames
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 4: before the SEC Championship. You're like, oh, I canmpletely understand
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 4: why people are about this kid. He ends up leaving
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 4: going to the NFL draft. I want to know about
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 4: were there any truth of these rumors in your mind
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 4: now at the time has passed, and this is usually
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 4: we can talk about these things and from a fan
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 4: base perspective, from your dad's perspective, who seems like he's
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 4: got his finger on the pulse of what goes down
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 4: with the Crimson tide. How we feeling Aboutkiln debor?
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 9: First thing in retrospect, Ty Simpson was never going to
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 9: do anything other than go to the draft because he
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 9: had mega offers on the table. I mean, he had
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 9: a mega offer from Miami on the table, and I
• 1:35:34
  Speaker 9: got respect for it. I got a lot of respect
• 1:35:36
  Speaker 9: for it because his reasoning was, I was a captain
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 9: at Alabama. I got my hands in the concrete there
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 9: at Alabama. I don't want to be looked back on
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 9: as a guy that just sort of threw that away
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 9: and went elsewhere. That's such an old school, like bygone
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 9: way of thinking. I could not have any more respect
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 9: for that. I wish there was more of it. So
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 9: Kielan Russell is the name to know at Alabama. Keilan
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 9: Russell was a five star I believe he was rated
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 9: five stars out of high school last year, and they
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 9: had a situation where he could come in and he
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 9: could read shirt because Ty was there. I went and
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 9: watched them practice a few times. I go as many
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 9: practices with as many teams as I can. And Keilan Russell,
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 9: you've been around it, man, You've been around high level
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 9: athletes and you just know when one is different, especially
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 9: a quarterback. You know when one is different. Now that
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 9: doesn't mean they're ready to play at that moment, but
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 9: when you witness elite like physical traits, there's no mistake
• 1:36:30
  Speaker 9: in that they don't blend in. They stand out from
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 9: the pack. So that guy's got that. I was shocked.
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 9: This is me personally speaking. I had no knowledge of it.
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 9: I was shocked that they did not lose Austin Mack
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 9: in the portal because Austin Mack is another pretty good quarterback.
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 9: You saw him come in in the Rose Bowl against
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 9: Indiana when Ty Simpson went down, made some good throws.
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 9: I know for a fact that when he transferred from
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 9: Washington to Alabama, I guess two cycles ago. Now there
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 9: were some other teams that wanted him back, but I
• 1:37:00
  Speaker 9: could come up into bors system, and he had played
• 1:37:02
  Speaker 9: under de Bori he just wanted to go continue to
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 9: develop under Kaylen de Bor. But look, they're going to
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 9: have a competition this spring, and I'm not saying they won't.
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 9: I'm telling you on equivocally, I think Keilan Russell will
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 9: win that competition. And that's why I was just kind
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 9: of surprised. Again, it's kind of a bygone concept that
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 9: a guy is okay staying at a program and developing.
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 9: So hats off to Austin Mack as well as for
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 9: the Kailn de Bor thing. I think there's a healthy
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 9: amount of not so much doubt. I think there's sort
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 9: of a prove it to me, people begging him to
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 9: prove it to me because they want to believe in him.
• 1:37:37
  Speaker 9: Like there's some ten percent that are always negative. Remove
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 9: them for a second. Let's go like with the core
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 9: fan base, they got high expectations, but that was always
• 1:37:46
  Speaker 9: going to be the case if you went to Alabama.
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 9: I think they're looking and they're saying, we were dying
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 9: to have a reason to believe. And it's not like
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 9: they went seven and six, they went to the playoff,
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 9: they won a playoff game, they were beat to death
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 9: at the end of the year. What they want is
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 9: they want to look like Miami looks like on the
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 9: line of scrimmage. That's what they want to look like. Yes,
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 9: like they want the idea that when someone faces them,
• 1:38:07
  Speaker 9: they fear that they're facing a bully instead of you're
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 9: Alabama and you're going to play Indiana and you're trying
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 9: to find ways, like a slide of hands, smoking mirrors,
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 9: let's see how we can hang in this game. That
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 9: should never be the vibe with Alabama. So I think
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 9: that's the vibe from the fan base right now. Now.
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 9: You just fired an offensive line coach and you get
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 9: a guy from USC in there, and there's a lot
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 9: of hope that like, Okay, that's going to help us
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 9: turn the corner and now we'll be able to run
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 9: the ball again. And look, I sit here from the outside,
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 9: not even halfway claiming to know the ins and outs
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 9: of why they can't run the ball. I just know
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 9: that that's got to get fixed. That's got to be
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 9: a non negotiable. Yeah, So that's the thing I'm watching for.
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 9: They're bringing in an excellent true freshman, but will be
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 9: a true freshman at tailback. Keelan Russell I think will
• 1:38:53
  Speaker 9: win that job. But they got a really good quarterback
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 9: room position situation right now.
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 1:38:58
  Speaker 9: I think there yet another team. I think they're going
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 9: to be in the mix, but I'm not ready to say, oh,
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 9: they've definitively turned some corner yet, cause it's January.
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 4: Yep, it's January. Everything else is right now is just
• 1:39:08
  Speaker 4: speculation and fun. I love I love the conversation around
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 4: Austin Mac. Austin Mac correct the kid that came in Yeah,
• 1:39:14
  Speaker 4: during the Rose Bowl. The idea of delayed gratification is
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 4: such a thing that you said, like it's an old
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 4: school way of thinking. You see it happening in the
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 4: Northwest with Dante Dante Moore and choose him choosing to
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 4: come back for another year when he was clearly the
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 4: number two pick, and just the way the NFL cycle works,
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 4: he started to be argued as the number one pick
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 4: as we got closer and closer. Once he saw his
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 4: combine numbers all the things, people would find a way
• 1:39:39
  Speaker 4: to say, this kid's better than for Nana Mendoza, and
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 4: then it'd probably still end up one and two. Hey,
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 4: he comes back for another year. They also got a kid,
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 4: Dylan Royola from Nebraska that it's it's very interesting to
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 4: see culturally Dan Lanning's ability and what seems like Kailen
• 1:39:53
  Speaker 4: Debora's ability to keep quarterbacks at Bay when it seems
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 4: like everyone's first inclination is just to run to the
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 4: transfer portal over and over, but organs out the team.
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 4: I want to talk about. The team I want to
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 4: talk about is Ohio State. Arthur Smith, friend of mine.
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 4: He was a GA type of that was kind of
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 4: like he was a tight ends assistant's assistant when I
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 4: first got to the Tennessee Titans in twenty fourteen. He
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 4: was a guy that did all the grunt work, slowly
• 1:40:18
  Speaker 4: worked his way up, became the OC at the Titans,
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 4: went over to Atlanta as the head coach, didn't work
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 4: out there, found himself at the Steelers this year and
• 1:40:26
  Speaker 4: was interviewing for head coaching jobs after the season. He
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 4: ends up finding home and the worst possible place, in
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 4: my opinion is I have so much respect for him
• 1:40:32
  Speaker 4: and I think he's a great coach in Columbus, Ohio.
• 1:40:35
  Speaker 4: So now you've got Ryan Day, who is a person
• 1:40:38
  Speaker 4: that from an NFL perspective, it seemed like there were
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 4: some rumors rumblings similar to Marcus Freeman of jumping and
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 4: going to the NFL. His was maybe a little bit
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 4: lower than Marcus Freeman or Mark S. Freeman had say yeah,
• 1:40:49
  Speaker 4: I'm not doing that. And now you have an OC
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 4: and a DC that were NFL head coaches at one point.
• 1:40:54
  Speaker 4: So I know you had to dig into your bag
• 1:40:57
  Speaker 4: a little bit with the NFL. But what is Arthur's
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 4: myth bring to the table. This is his words he
• 1:41:02
  Speaker 4: used for me. Ohio State has a roster that is
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 4: better than some NFL rosters right now, and that is
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 4: a big reason why he chose to go and become
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 4: an OC at Ohio State. That pissed me off. And
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 4: my text back was, I'd love to see how good
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 4: Julian san really is without the aliens around him. Joking.
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 4: Of course, I think Julian Sann is a great quarterback,
• 1:41:23
  Speaker 4: But I want to know your perspective from Ohio State.
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 4: Is this a pissed off Buckeye team?
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 9: Yeah, of course, clearly, of course it is. Yes, You've
• 1:41:34
  Speaker 9: built a world there in Ryan Day's Ohio State where
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 9: I don't know what the closest comp sabans Alabama maybe
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 9: would be the closest cop of how he could just
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 9: it's an ecosystem almost. It's not even just a football program,
• 1:41:48
  Speaker 9: It's an entire ecosystem where it's totally plausible for NFL
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 9: borderline head coach or former head coaching caliber types to
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 9: just get a year or two in as a coordinator there.
• 1:42:00
  Speaker 9: Here's the other beauty, in it. And you'll notice this
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 9: kind of parallels what Sabin ended up doing. Saban would
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 9: bring in all these guys at Alabama and he would say,
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 9: I'm not bringing their system here. They're coming here to
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 9: run my system. They're coming here to run the Alabama offense.
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 9: That's kind of what Ohio State is now. It's like
• 1:42:18
  Speaker 9: Ohio State's got the Ohio State offense. You're gonna come
• 1:42:21
  Speaker 9: here and run it. We're gonna win, You're gonna look great.
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 9: If you don't have the opportunities you want now, fast
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 9: forward eleven months and you will. And so it mutually
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 9: benefits all of us. And that's the that's kind of
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 9: the ecosystem there now. And I also think once you
• 1:42:35
  Speaker 9: won a national title. I'm not saying the pressure is
• 1:42:38
  Speaker 9: ever off. You're always under immist pressure as the head
• 1:42:41
  Speaker 9: coach at Ohio State, but I think now it's more
• 1:42:43
  Speaker 9: just purely competitive pressure. There's not an ounce of job
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 9: security pressure, not that there ever should have been, but
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 9: there was, but there's no more of that. Like your process,
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 9: your methods are proven, and now you I mean you
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 9: just it's rints repeat and you know, like we just said,
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 9: with three other four other teams. You're gonna be there
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 9: every year. They were already there before they won the title.
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 9: They were in position. Yeah, they couldn't get over the
• 1:43:07
  Speaker 9: Michigan hump. But even before that, that Georgia's semi final
• 1:43:10
  Speaker 9: game where they miss a field goal at midnight in
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 9: the semi finals, they would have gone on to slaughter
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 9: TCU like that. They would have easily gone on to
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 9: do that. So they're that close to winning a title
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 9: four years prior. It's like Ryan Day's always been a stud.
• 1:43:22
  Speaker 9: He's always been that guy. Now my question to you is,
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 9: you know, good andwell, he had multiple candidates for this
• 1:43:28
  Speaker 9: coordinator position, right, do you think that? And I'm not
• 1:43:32
  Speaker 9: saying this is the way it worked. Let's just say
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 9: for argument's sake, Ryan Day has six finalists for this job,
• 1:43:41
  Speaker 9: and they're all pretty equal in his mind, knowing the
• 1:43:44
  Speaker 9: relationship you guys have now well established. Yeah, do you
• 1:43:48
  Speaker 9: think if he knows that picking option five is going
• 1:43:52
  Speaker 9: to put you on tilt emotionally a little bit, that
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 9: that's enough to push option five over the finish line
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 9: and get Option five in this case smith the job.
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 4: So you're saying, does Ryan Day think about me so much?
• 1:44:07
  Speaker 4: That he's making coaching hires in order to get out
• 1:44:10
  Speaker 4: of my skin.
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 9: If now this is not that it gives a guy
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 9: a leg up, if all the candidates are pretty equal,
• 1:44:18
  Speaker 9: like he thinks, I could close my eyes and throw
• 1:44:20
  Speaker 9: a dart. Whichever balloon it hits, I'll win no matter what.
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 9: If option number five there author Smith comes with the
• 1:44:29
  Speaker 9: added benefit of keeping you up at night. Is Ryan
• 1:44:32
  Speaker 9: Day making the hire of option five.
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 4: One hundred absolutely one hundred percent. And it's like, I'll
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 4: people like probably sitting there right now and be like, oh, Taylor,
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 4: it's main character syndrome. Listen, Ryan Day declined coming on
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 4: busting with the boys, and then they beat it. They
• 1:44:47
  Speaker 4: beat Michigan, and twelve hours later it was oh, by
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 4: the way, he has availability now. So Ryan Day is
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 4: playing chess in my brain right now. He's got the
• 1:44:56
  Speaker 4: twentieth floor Penthouse sweet in my brain, and he's got
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 4: free range because he's done it. And as much as
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 4: I don't like it, I respect the man now like
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 4: he is he is doing a good job of trolling.
• 1:45:09
  Speaker 4: And by hiring Arthur Smith, who I consider a friend,
• 1:45:13
  Speaker 4: is just crazy. And what I consider even crazier is
• 1:45:16
  Speaker 4: I had to find out on the internet, Josh Pate
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 4: that that Arthur Smith took this job, and I had
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 4: to find out for my own bustle with the boy's
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 4: account that he took this job. And I know this
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 4: is all Ryan Day's doing. Just get under my skin
• 1:45:28
  Speaker 4: because you're right, they're gonna win no matter what.
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 9: Uh I got. I got a text. I'll let you
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 9: guess who sent this to me right now. It says

• 1:46:31
  Speaker 4: I don't know if we have the camera, we have
• 1:46:32
  Speaker 4: a whole keg sitting right here. What is something that
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 4: Josh Pate would do anything for it? And you cannot
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 4: say anything about family strictly selfish?
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 9: Okay, so it can be selfish. I don't have to
• 1:46:44
  Speaker 9: give the requisite.
• 1:46:46

• 1:46:49
  Speaker 4: that out now we're done with that.
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 1: Maybe something weather related.
• 1:46:52
  Speaker 4: Ooh, maybe something I think he's already said on the show.
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 4: Me personally, if I'm in Josh Pate's Josh Pate's brain,
• 1:46:59
  Speaker 4: I think I know what you should say. It's whether
• 1:47:02
  Speaker 4: or not you say it or not.
• 1:47:05
  Speaker 9: Does that have anything to do with private aviation?
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 4: Now it does?
• 1:47:09
  Speaker 9: Yeah? All right, there is a dream scenario you and I.
• 1:47:14
  Speaker 9: We have spoken about the joint private jet venture many
• 1:47:17
  Speaker 9: times and our big, our big hang up is what
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 9: we would spray paint on the side. But let's just
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 9: table that for a second. I mean, imagine private helicopter
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 9: access during a chase, because at that point you're no
• 1:47:30
  Speaker 9: longer handcuffed by the winding roads and limited access, and
• 1:47:35
  Speaker 9: you just you go after it, you attack it.
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 4: That So you want private helicopter access to chase a
• 1:47:44
  Speaker 4: tornado which is horrible weather. Yes, that sounds terrifying. I
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 4: thought you were sit there and be like buy a plane,
• 1:47:55
  Speaker 4: and I'd be like, hell, yes, that is one hundred
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 4: percent that if I could do any thing, that would
• 1:48:00
  Speaker 4: probably a Suffern family, Well I would want that. But
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 4: a private helicopter.
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 9: I gotta have maneuverability. All my light went out. I
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 9: gotta have maneuverability.
