• 6:02
  Speaker 1: So our lead story this hour. Change it up a
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: little bit. Talking shoes. Well, we're gonna start out in
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: the sneaker verse, that's right. The sneaker verse where Nike,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I'm told, a giant shoe company that is based in Oregon.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: They make their shoes in sweatshops, or at least that
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: was the legend years ago. Anyway, Nike, they have released
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: the Caitlin Clark signature shoe. We yeah, the shoe launch
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: and it has been called a ginormous failure. So if
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: you didn't see this, and maybe not, and I'm certainly
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: not a shoe person, although this story does interest me
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: because one of the people in the story is one
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: of the great radio guests of all time. So Nike
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: unveiled They're calling it the Caitlin One. It's a racer
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: blue color. It's got a blue color to it, and
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: they were very braggadocious about the new performance technology, which
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: is just, in my opinion, marketing bull crap that they
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: put in there, and a lot of you just buy
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: it because your suckers. Oh it's got new performance tech, yeah,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: which is I find hilarious. Anyway, So they were, you know,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: talking about that I'm going to help you with your
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: speed and efficiency and yeah, like three hundred hollering James
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: puts these on all of a sudden, He's going to
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: be more more efficient and have better speed. The people
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: over at Nike are charging one hundred and forty dollars
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: for the shoes. Now entering the chat is the legendary
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: shoe executive Sonny Vaccaro, the key to getting Michael Jordan
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: with Nike. If you've seen any of these movies and
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: documentaries over the years about the start of Nike, the
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: early days of Nike, and everything that went into that,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Sonny vccaro is one of the big time players at Nike,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: and so he chimed in and said, of the Caitlin
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Clark shoe release, quote one of the biggest failures I've
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: ever seen close quote. He also went on to note
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: that Caitlin Clark was already a massive known commodity among
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: sports fans, unlike many athletes that get their shoes and
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: they don't normally start out at that level. So that's
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: a good jumping out point. Let us discuss the question
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: for the class, do you agree or disagree with the
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: shoe legend the godfather Sonny Vaccaro saying that Nike, the
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: company that he helped build, botched the Caitlin Clark shoe release.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: So I've got my views on this I've got rocket ship,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: tire Raq and North Korean Gulag, and we will combine
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: all all of these things together and we are going
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: to have a TV dinner, is what we're going to have. Okay,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: little TV dinner, all right. So first of all, I
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: the error on this is obvious. The scales are leaning
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: this way. We agree one thousand percent, not one hundred percent,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: not eight hundred percent, one thousand percent. We agree with
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Sonny Baccaro. Nike did goof who goofed? I've got to
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: know they did, And honestly, I am shocked they haven't
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: blamed some supply chain issue or you know, somebody has
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: to pay the price for this, And we're not sure
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: who they signed Caitlin Clark. I believe it was twenty
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: twenty two. It's currently the middle of twenty twenty six,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: so if my math is correct, that's about four years.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: It's about four years, give or take. They have watched
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: her while she's under the Nike umbrella, become a ratings
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: dominator at Iowa with the Hawkeyes, right the rating nuke
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: a nuclear bomb for ratings, getting legit ratings for women's
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: college basketball, which has gone away since she left, and
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: they had her, and they did not nothing. They just
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: said on that massive swoosh gravitas and they said, well,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: get to it when we get to it. They waited
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: until she was well into her WNBA career a couple
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: of years, and her star is it's not the same, right,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: can we all agree on that. She's still a big deal.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: It's cool. And now they've decided, you know, today's the
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: day we're going to drop the signature shoe. It is
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: a class on turning a rocket ship into a pogo stick.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Nike signed a rocket ship and by the time they
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: got to the shoe, it's like a little pogo stick.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: What are you doing? The data also the other problem
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Nike's got, and the data tells you that women don't
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: buy basketball shoes. It's a problem if you're trying to
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: sell basketball shoes to women. Now, the other thing is,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: can you get men to buy the Caitlin Clark shoe. Well,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: that's also a problem because men generally don't buy women's shoes,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: although recently there's you know where I'm going anyway, So listen,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: women's basketball shoes are a niche inside a niche. If
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: you feel me on that. In fact, I looked up
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: the numbers. They make up one percent, you knowtic pathetic
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: one percent of sales for shoes because women usually buy
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: either unisex models or men's models and or don't even
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: wear basketball shoes. And so Caitlin Clark was seen as
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: the outlier, that she's the Jordan of this generation, or
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: maybe Steph Curry is a better, better comp for women's
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: basketball shoes, and that that market like a once in
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: a generation unicorn, capable of completely completely transcending the category.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: And instead, this multi billion dollar behemoth granted not doing
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: as well as they used to do because people aren't
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: spending as much money on basketball shoes anymore, and they
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: treated Caitlin Clark and the shoe like a mid round
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: draft pick. It's an absolute fumbling of the bag. It's
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: a big time hoo goofed. I've got to know someone's
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: gonna have to pay the price. Now. Secondly, we go
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: to baseball, the atl where the Atlanta Braves I believe
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: are no longer the top team in baseball. It's unfortunate
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: they are no longer. They were in the penthouse and
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: now they've fallen on hard times. The Atlanta Braves, the
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: injuries have piled up up up up to the Moon,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: to the Moon, to the Moon, to the Moon, to
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: the Moon, to the Moon, to the Moon. Yeah, they
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: keep happening, day after day. The latest news came out
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: this week. Ronald Acuna Junior, the man that got the
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: massive contract although he sold for pennies on the dollar.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Ronald Acuna Junr. Is dealing with a left hamstring strain
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: and it's the same spot that he had issues with
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: earlier this season. So the Breaks have decided they are
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: going to put him on ice ice, ice baby. For now.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: They're shutting him down, which means he's going to his
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: favorite place, the Injury Tent, to enjoy some camping in
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: the injury a Tent there for Atlanta. He returned just
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: recently after missing nearly three weeks with almost an identical
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: left hamstring strain. And so this is now another yet
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: another return to that injured list for Ronald Lacuna Junior,
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: the outfielder for the Braves. The Braves now and the
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Brewers one game behind the Dodgers for the top record
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: in baseball. Now. I bring this up because Walt Weiss,
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: who if you're old you know, played for the Oakland athletics.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: He's the manager of the Atlanta Braves, and Walt Weiss
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: claimed that Akuna is quote a long way from returning
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: close quote because it's the same area as before, aiming
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: that out of an abundance of caution. Of course, they
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: canna be very conservative here, and they know that by
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: shutting him down for a good stretch of time, the
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Braves will hold off. They'll cut off at the pass
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: the major hamstring issues. Well, I have to check with
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: our doctor Tommy and Atlanta and find out. So the question,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: how do you see this latest injury to outfield, the
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Ronald Lacuna Junior playing out with the Atlanta Braves. So
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: think of this like if it was Mike Tyson's punch
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: out that arcade game, the video game back in the day,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: this would be known as a body blow, body blow,
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: body blow. And Atlanta's like, okay, uh, they felt the
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: controller rumble a little bit. It's it's a bit of
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: a problem. It's a bit of a problem there, and
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: the hammy is about to go whammy. It hasn't gone
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: whammy yet. Before this, Ronald was just starting to hit
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: a little little bit. It's just starting to cook. He
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: is in the kitchen and he had the hat on,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: and he had a bunch of spices and he was
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: cooking a little bit and not anymore. Now, the reoccurrence
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: of a soft tissue injury in the exact same spot,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: that's not lightly concerning. That is highly concerning. So his
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: absence it is a kick to the nuts, a kick
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: to the nuts of that lineup. He is the dynamic
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: leadoff hitter for the Atlanta Braves, the lethal like an
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: Anaconda base runner. And he is a premier right fielder
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: as well, or has been. So that's said, just keeping
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: it real, just keeping it real here. This is not
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: really a setback. It is a pattern. It's patternicity for
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: the player. The bloom is off the rows. Now it's
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: just thorns and hemies. That's where we are. We mentioned
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: in a previous Mallet monologue that this guy is not
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: in the bubble of trust and Ronald Lacune Junr he
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: needs to visit tire Rack because he's running on bald
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: tires and they have all kinds of tires for you
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: over there at tire Rack. He's not injury prone, he's
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: injury predictable. There's a difference. And you look at his
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: performance and how he's done with all the injuries. He
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: is a asset, a diminished asset. Akuna is shelved until
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: late July, likely sometime in August, and who knows, who
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: knows this could be that's it for the season. He
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: starts working out again. That hammy pops and its boom
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: goes the dynamite, see you later. And this is who
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: he is. He's out. He's not been a dependable player
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: in recent years. In the meantime, you got the braves
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: who have to have other people do your job. Matt Olson,
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: Ossi Alby's, Austin Riley, guys like that who have to
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: step up and perform. Get it done, all right? Now,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: final thought to the Derby. We go to the Derby,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: not the Brown Derby, not the Kentucky Derby, the Dinger Derby.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: And we've learned that major League Baseball has done the
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: old switcher room. We're about a month away from not
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: only the Malard Paloser however, also about a month away
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: from that great All Star event which is in Philadelphia
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: this year. So Baseball's decided, if you didn't see this,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: they're reverting to the classic outstyle format for the home
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: run derby. According to the athletic what does that mean?
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: The first round there'll be eight players each get twenty swings.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: The top four advance. The semi finals and the finals
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: each get fifteen swings and as a bonus rule. But wait,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: there's more. If a player hits a home run on
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: their final swing of around, they continue swinging until they
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: make it out, which means a non home run. So
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: this could extend Browns dynamically. On the math on hitting
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: multiple home runs in a row is not great, it
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: can happen. These are supposedly the top one percent, So
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: this brings us back to the pre twenty fifteen approach,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: which was last used in twenty fourteen. That would be
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: before twenty fifteen. So they're ditching the timed clock by bye,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: which was typically three minutes or forty pitches plus bonus outs,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: and that had been in place over the last decade
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: or so. So the question why is Major League Baseball
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: tinkering with the home run derby? And the reason they're
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: tinkering is because this is what baseball does under this leadership.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: They have a solution in search of a problem is
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: what they have. And Rob Manford's favorite character isn't a
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Babe Ruth the Bambini from back in the day. It's
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: tinker belt. I always got a tinker, I always got
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: a tinker. Ghost Runners over here Pizza box plates the
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: shift going away. Now they've added this wrinkle with the Derby,
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: the home run Derby. His legacy is basically tie it
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: into our great advertisers. Basically a home Deepot Aisle, right
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: home Deepot Aisle with no Beckham. There a man who
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: cannot stop fiddling with stuff. And the latest makeover came
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: not because Manford determined the home run Derby was broken
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: or Major League Baseball did. The reason we are told
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: they did this is because workers aired their grievances with HR.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: The players complained. Apparently the old format was too exhausting
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: for the cream puff players. Heaven forbid, we asked these
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: guys to swing a bat for three minutes. It's akin
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: to being sentenced to a North Korean gulag, is what
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: it is. So Baseball switched it. They insist that the
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: new setup creates natural drama. Okay, I'm sure that's the case.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: You know what else also creates natural drama. It's gonna
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: blow your mind here. Not changing the rules every six months,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: and naturally the derby is at Citizens Bank Park in Philly,
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: And yeah, that's right, and it's going to be on
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Netflix this year, as that small fledgling cable channel in
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Connecticut lost the rights to the Home Run Derby. So
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be on Netflix, of course it will, which
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: means after every home run you'll have one of the
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: actors from Stranger Fit Things run on the field. You'll
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: in between at the midway point of the home Run Derby,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: you'll have a breakout squid game thing and then the
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: true crime documentary will play post Netflix Home Run Derby.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: So all of this Baseball's latest experiment in unnecessary chaos,
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: and tune in before they change the format again. It
• 20:59

• 29:53
  Speaker 5: Four hours I question to make so on Monday, I'll
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: missed the show Mother going into Tuesday, I missed the
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: show due to the fact that I was stuck in
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: the elevator. Okay, so hit me out there.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: This is where I've been. I've been stuck. I've been
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: stuck in an elevator too. Are you at a hotel
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: or where where were you? No?
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: No, no, I was on my way to work. I
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: had to get you know, company vehicle and stuff like that.
• 30:19
  Speaker 5: So we have an elevator in the building. It's a
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: little rinky, right. So, uh, before I left home, mind you,
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: I just had surgery not too long ago for a
• 30:28
  Speaker 5: little bone spur in my leg. So I thought I
• 30:31
  Speaker 5: took my ibuprofen. I actually ended up taking something completely
• 30:34
  Speaker 5: different than an ibuprofraend. So I'm stuck in the elevator then,
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: and I'm sitting there pressing the button, pressing the button.
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: I ended up calling my boss telling them everything like, hey, man,
• 30:44
  Speaker 5: I don't think I'm gonna make it in. I'm stuck.
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: He's like, you're stuck where I'm stuck in the office elevator.
• 30:48
  Speaker 5: He's like, there's no possible way. I'm like, dude, I'm
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: stuck in the elevator. He's like, yeah, we don't have
• 30:53
  Speaker 5: an elevator.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: What where were you?
• 30:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah? Because so my company's building has the exact same
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: setup as the building adjacent from us, and because I
• 31:07
  Speaker 5: took the wrong medication. I walked into the wrong buildings,
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: got stuck in the wrong elevator, and then come to
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: find out I wasn't even stuck. I was just pressing
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: the wrong button to get on.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: So you were all messed up. Your mind was mushed
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: because you took the wrong meds. Is that what happened?
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: So now here's where it gets even more crazy. So
• 31:26
  Speaker 5: I'm sitting there, I'm trying to, you know, use my
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: phone and listen to the show. And I guess I
• 31:31
  Speaker 5: wasn't listening to the show, and I was like, you know,
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: I'll just call and I called it the Dan Patrick
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: causing Damnatrick.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: You called that help man. Well that's a much different show.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: That's a much different experience if you call Dan Patrick
• 31:44
