Speaker 2: don't know if this is going to be super against
0:56
Speaker 2: the Irish tradition.
0:57
Speaker 1: I just don't like mushrooms.
0:59
Speaker 2: I don't like mush and legitimately anything that's fairther than
1:02
Speaker 2: the special kind, and those ones still don't taste good.
1:06
Speaker 1: I'd like, well, I don't know, but.
1:10
Speaker 2: There's a there's just a spot where you sit there
1:12
Speaker 2: and say, we could probably get the mushrooms out of

1:16
Speaker 2: fan of it. Drew, what about you? Any any green beer?
1:18

Speaker 1: Nothing? No, the St Patrick's Day went by at our
1:25
Speaker 1: house and it was just Tuesday, Yeah and classic, that's yeah,
1:29
Speaker 1: that was exactly how it happened to green Bucks hoodie yesterday.
1:32
Speaker 1: That was it. But that was it. That was the
1:34
Speaker 1: extent of my celebrating. I felt like going out because
1:36
Speaker 1: you know, we're off at eight am. Yep, I felt
1:38
Speaker 1: like I could go out, and I was supposed to
1:40
Speaker 1: meet some folks over at Left Lucky Town seventy second Statory.
1:42
Speaker 1: I'm sure it was a great party. I just couldn't
1:44
Speaker 1: get motivated. Similar situation.
1:46
Speaker 3: I can't say I'm bibe than any sort of like
1:49
Speaker 3: Irish Fair yesterday. It did ask some fried chicken, but
1:51
Speaker 3: that's you know, that's right. But come on, I'm sure
1:54
Speaker 3: someone in Ireland is eating chicken at some point.
1:56
Speaker 1: Oh for sure. So I'm taking that one right there.
1:59
Speaker 1: Any good, it's a good day to have fried chicken.
2:01
Speaker 3: Now.
2:01
Speaker 2: The one that I did forget and I was brought
2:04
Speaker 2: to my attention yesterday mostly because of TikTok. I forgot
2:08
Speaker 2: about the little leper con catch that some people do
2:11
Speaker 2: on Saint Patrick's Day, and apparently people were in full force.
2:15
Speaker 2: I'm trying to catch the leper cons yesterday with the
2:18
Speaker 2: little shoe box. Keep the pencil up, building traps and stuff,
2:21
Speaker 2: build a leper con trapt. Did you catch any No?
2:23
Speaker 2: I totally forgot to put it out. Yeah, so I
2:25
Speaker 2: forgot to put it out. We would have caught it.
2:26
Speaker 2: We would have had a pot of gold. Probably wouldn't
2:28
Speaker 2: have been talking to me today because if I would
2:29
Speaker 2: have found that pot of gold from the leprechaun bellas.
2:32
Speaker 2: I love doing this radio show, but I think that
2:33
Speaker 2: pot of so uh. Sadly that one didn't work out,
2:37
Speaker 2: nor did the pot of gold lucky Charm little scratchers
2:41
Speaker 2: that we got yesterday. I was gonna say, I thought
2:42
Speaker 2: the scratch ticket feeling Lucky was gonna be the winner instead,
2:46
Speaker 2: No dice, So we're here today.
2:48
Speaker 1: I love you guys, but I was kind of hoping
2:49
Speaker 1: to take it. Speaking of lucky.
2:50
Speaker 3: Charms, is that the bait you use for the leper
2:52
Speaker 3: con traps? Like, what's the bait? You know? I would
2:55
Speaker 3: think lucky charms, you know, they're magically delicious.
2:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think that's almost in right. He's like,
3:02
Speaker 2: I'm good on all those I created these.
3:04
Speaker 3: It's like asking a guy that's from Australia the drinks Fosters,
3:06
Speaker 3: is that the same?
3:07
Speaker 1: Correct? Yeah? I don't. I don't think that's what they like.
3:10
Speaker 1: I did see.
3:10
Speaker 2: Uh, there was a custard shop in town that was
3:13
Speaker 2: celebrating Saint Patrick's Day with lucky charms infused in the
3:16
Speaker 2: in the.
3:17
Speaker 1: Way stream, and now we're talking that's it.
3:20
Speaker 2: No, Yeah, I don't know, man, that's gonna be a
3:23
Speaker 2: stretch for me.
3:24
Speaker 1: You're in that, hell, yeah, I'm in for that. That
3:26
Speaker 1: sounds amazing. Lucky charms like custard or ice cream.
3:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, with the marshmallows all throughout the custards.
3:33
Speaker 1: Do you like marshmallows? Yeah, three hundred pounds for sure. Mushrooms.
3:39
Speaker 1: I don't know.
3:40
Speaker 3: You told me to like mushrooms, Mike with literally I
3:44
Speaker 3: get it, sugar, I get that. Yeah, that's a good point. No,
3:49
Speaker 3: I mean that sounds good for me. Yeah, Mike would
3:51
Speaker 3: hot take mushroom was the best pizza toping.
3:54
Speaker 1: Nobody talks. That's the worst take ever. I mean that's
3:57
Speaker 1: first of all, who doesn't talk about mushrooms.
3:59
Speaker 2: It's on every supreme so it's absolutely talked about. And
4:03
Speaker 2: it's like the Milwaukee pizza order sausage mushroom and.
4:06
Speaker 1: That's the Milwaukee pizza that's the one, right.
4:09
Speaker 3: So you gotta get that mushroom off of there. Yeah,
4:11
Speaker 3: I mean I like it, but that's fine. You can
4:12
Speaker 3: have that take. You know, everyone's got, everyone's got, everyone's got.
4:16
Speaker 1: Here's a hot take for you.
4:18
Speaker 3: I was thinking about this, Uh, like, all all right,
4:21
Speaker 3: granola bars these days, what's the difference between that and
4:23
Speaker 3: a candy bar?
4:24
Speaker 1: You know, I'm trying to eat healthier, less sugar. That's
4:26
Speaker 1: a candy bar.
4:27
Speaker 3: Bro You trying to act like because you're in a
4:29
Speaker 3: different aisle, you're trying to act healthier because you got
4:31
Speaker 3: you know, like, you know, peanut butter.
4:33
Speaker 1: No, that's a candy bar. I mean, enough of this stuff.
4:36
Speaker 3: Put them in the candy out at this point, because
4:38
Speaker 3: it's absolutely ridiculous. I'm out there trying to be like,
4:40
Speaker 3: maybe I can find a healthy granola bar. The Payday
4:43
Speaker 3: bar is healthier. And what's preventing the Payday bar from
4:46
Speaker 3: making a comeback? I mean that's all that is is
4:48
Speaker 3: carmel disgusting. I love the Payday bar, Are you crazy?
4:52
Speaker 3: It's and it's got a lot of protein. It's all peanuts,
4:55
Speaker 3: there's no chocolates. It's healthier than a granola bar. Bring
4:58
Speaker 3: make the Payday bar great again?
5:00
Speaker 1: Are you in on this one? Drew you? You eight? Like
5:03
Speaker 1: the Payday Yeah? Really? Not a fan. I can't tell
5:07
Speaker 1: you that I've ever thought I'm grabbing eight day bar.
5:10
Speaker 1: The problem. No one's thinking about the payday bar. It's true.
5:13
Speaker 1: What it's I think the Payday bar needs to make
5:15
Speaker 1: a comeback. I think it's when was it ever? That's
5:19
Speaker 1: my question. Arment's totally right. Those Nature Valley granola bars
5:24
Speaker 1: are glorified candy bars. They're not healthy list and I'm
5:27
Speaker 1: still feel better. I'm still eating them.
5:29
Speaker 3: But like, you're right, it just makes supposed to make
5:30
Speaker 3: you feel like you is a candy bar, but uh, snickers.
5:34
Speaker 1: The trend in food that has to go is slapping.
5:37
Speaker 1: How many grams of protein. Everything has every everything's just
5:40
Speaker 1: gobble as much protein as we can. That's gonna help. Well,
5:43
Speaker 1: it's all trends. People are all thinking, like, I got
5:46
Speaker 1: to get as many grams of protein as I can
5:47
Speaker 1: try to build muscle. Well, you want to build muscle,
5:50
Speaker 1: you also gott to weight move around. Yeah, you want
5:54
Speaker 1: to lose weight and build muscle, you gotta be in
5:56
Speaker 1: a calorie definicit.
5:57
Speaker 3: Two.
5:57
Speaker 1: Come on, I did uh.
5:59
Speaker 2: I started eating string cheese because somebody told me how
6:01
Speaker 2: there's grams of protein. Like sounds good to me. Sure
6:04
Speaker 2: there's protein.
6:05
Speaker 1: And yeah.
6:05
Speaker 3: It's like when when everyone thought that fat was making
6:08
Speaker 3: you like if you had fat cuts, everything was fat free,
6:11
Speaker 3: fat free, Like remember snack Wells drew What a scam
6:14
Speaker 3: that was snack Wells cookies.
6:16
Speaker 1: You know, like yeah, right, you're good.
6:18
Speaker 3: It's just like, I don't know. It is pretty funny.
6:21
Speaker 3: When I see gluten free on a jar pickles, I'm like, yeah, God,
6:25
Speaker 3: I remember these. It's like, yeah, what the paydays so terrible?
6:31
Speaker 1: God, diet horrible? They give me a break, bro, are
6:36
Speaker 1: you kidding me? Right now?
6:37
Speaker 3: You want to make a diet cookie, then don't need
6:39
Speaker 3: a cookie like that's your diet cookie right there.
6:41
Speaker 2: So now that Saint Patrick's day is over, is the shamrock?
6:43
Speaker 2: Does the Shamrock shake just become like half price or
6:46
Speaker 2: do we run through a month or like, what's the
6:48
Speaker 2: what's the shake machines broken?
6:50
Speaker 1: First of all, shake machine is broken, so you don't
6:53
Speaker 1: have to worry about it. No, it's mine. It's through march.
6:56
Speaker 3: It's what the copsmanship one is superior.
6:59
Speaker 1: Everyone knows that.
7:00
Speaker 3: But there's a little special extra like chemical fake sugar
7:05
Speaker 3: in that shamrock shake to make it good. I don't
7:07
Speaker 3: know what it is, true, Mike Witz says, hot take,
7:09
Speaker 3: they're overrated. No, they're not overrated. They're they're properly rated.
7:12
Speaker 3: Shamrock shakes are the least healthy, most delicious shake.
7:15
Speaker 1: It's not real, Cluster, it's not real. I get it.
7:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, and don't let your wife tell you that they're
7:20
Speaker 2: We're gonna make our own homemade shamrock shakes.
7:22
Speaker 1: They're gonna be so much better with krim de menth.
7:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, just like the surprise mashed potatoes, here's the surprise.
7:29
Speaker 1: They're not mashed potatoes.
7:30
Speaker 3: Hey, mom, you can tell me we've got candy at home.
7:33
Speaker 3: We have hamburgers at home. We have fries at home.
7:36
Speaker 3: But the one thing Mom, you cannot tell me is
7:38
Speaker 3: that we have shamrock shakes at home. We don't have that.
7:41
Speaker 3: We don't have shamrock shakes at home. I want my
7:43
Speaker 3: shamrock shape with the cherry on top.
7:45
Speaker 1: You give us your hot takes eight seven seven seven three.
7:49
Speaker 1: The corn beef industry, that's their super Bowl yesterday. Yes,
7:52
Speaker 1: big corn beef had a big day. Big And people
7:56
Speaker 1: that eat that one time of year. If it's so great,
7:59
Speaker 1: like what people say about turkey and Thanksgiving, you it's
8:01
Speaker 1: so great. Why aren't we roasting turkeys like on a
8:04
Speaker 1: random February.
8:06
Speaker 3: And why aren't we eating turkey eggs? That I was
8:09
Speaker 3: thinking about that Yesterdory in the grocery store.
8:11
Speaker 2: Well, and that's the thing, Drew, Like I I'll have
8:13
Speaker 2: a turkey sandwich throughout the throughout the week, right like that.
8:16
Speaker 2: That'll be a lunch for me. Let's gotta have it's
8:18
Speaker 2: a staple.
8:18
Speaker 1: Like you gotta have some some some turkey.
8:23
Speaker 3: Good.
8:23
Speaker 2: It's too good to not have in the in the fridge.
8:25
Speaker 2: Now the corn beef you can miss me with it.
8:28
Speaker 2: I appreciate that it does have its day. But the
8:32
Speaker 2: only time that I ever saw corn beef and hash
8:34
Speaker 2: be eating other than Saint Patrick's day was when my
8:37
Speaker 2: one roommate's mom dropped off like four cans of it
8:41
Speaker 2: and he didn't realize that you heated it up and
8:43
Speaker 2: he was eating it. I've honestly never touched corn beaf
8:47
Speaker 2: and ash after watching.
8:48
Speaker 3: Baby my man was eating a cold out of the can.
8:50
Speaker 2: That's I'm like, that's the grossest thing I've ever seen.
8:54
Speaker 1: It legitimately looks like you're eating dogs.
8:56
Speaker 3: It's like the most like caveman college do a thing
8:58
Speaker 3: to do is like to open up the cann.
9:00
Speaker 1: Have five minutes to heat this up microwave safe dish.
9:04
Speaker 1: You're kidding me? Five minutes? Like what's next?
9:07
Speaker 3: Like he's biting into the cannon chev boyard trying to eat.
9:10
Speaker 1: The That's ruthless efficiency. I got to say, you know,
9:14
Speaker 1: just put the can right on the burner and the
9:17
Speaker 1: can out, put on an oven mitt and then eat
9:20
Speaker 1: it right out of the can. Dishes to wash too
9:23
Speaker 1: lazy to rinse the dish.
9:25
Speaker 2: Make sure you pull the peel off because that will
9:28
Speaker 2: ignite that one will go up from learn that from
9:30
Speaker 2: from experience.
9:33
Speaker 1: Listen, you can try. It works smarter, not harder.
9:35
Speaker 2: It's it's also like the time and place where you
9:37
Speaker 2: realize that you didn't necessarily have to preheat.
9:41
Speaker 1: The oven for the pizza. Now, i's got to.
9:43
Speaker 2: Help if you preheat the oven of the frozen pizza.
9:45
Speaker 2: But you sit there and I'm like, why am I
9:47
Speaker 2: waiting this seven and a half minutes? Buddy, chef out
9:50
Speaker 2: of Popo.
9:51
Speaker 1: Just put it in right away and let it get
9:53
Speaker 1: up the temperature and just fire that thing up and
9:54
Speaker 1: just keep an eye on it. Okay, good. He thinks
9:57
Speaker 1: the recommendations are just a ballpark. You just you have
10:00
Speaker 1: to watch your pizza. You know.
10:02
Speaker 3: He makes me feel better about a lot of things.
10:05
Speaker 3: He said stuff like this. I feel like he's really
10:07
Speaker 3: like he's a great chef, but he's also one of them.
10:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're gonna get him back in the rotation. I
10:10
Speaker 1: can't wait for that. We're adjusted to our early hours.
10:13
Speaker 1: He still got to adjust. So Adam will join us.
10:15
Speaker 1: So Adam Polock, Egg and Flower and of many cooking
10:18
Speaker 1: shows in the television. So yeah, he was just in
10:21
Speaker 1: the Dominican on his annual golf cooking crazy. He goes
10:25
Speaker 1: out there for an event.
10:27
Speaker 2: That's golfing cat and a golf and a fishing a
10:30
Speaker 2: golf fishing trip are cooking and cooking, fishing and golf.
10:34
Speaker 1: What on earth could you possibly have?
10:35
Speaker 2: Because you can catch, you can cook it, and then
10:37
Speaker 2: you can go out here and play nine and then
10:38
Speaker 2: worry about it. Hey, fellas, what do we got here
10:40
Speaker 2: after the ninth hole? No, we're not grabbing a sandwich
10:43
Speaker 2: at the cloth.
10:43
Speaker 3: No, we're cooking something nice up. And you can do
10:45
Speaker 3: it all together. You can play the lake, you know,
10:48
Speaker 3: the whole with the lakes, with the fish popping out.
10:50
Speaker 3: You catch a fish and you groll it up right
10:52
Speaker 3: there on the shore. You can do it all at once.
10:54
Speaker 1: I like that.
10:54
Speaker 3: We have a hot take here from Tony and Oak
10:56
Speaker 3: Creek on the on the text line, that's an NCAA
10:59
Speaker 3: tournament hot take that I kind of thought about the past.
11:01
Speaker 3: I'm wondering what your guys thoughts are, hot take? Playing
11:03
Speaker 3: games should only be for teams that aren't automatic qualifiers?
11:07
Speaker 3: All right, that's pretty interesting. So basically what Tony's saying
11:11
Speaker 3: is there they should only be at large teams so sixteen, Yeah,
11:15
Speaker 3: but then aren't we getting more of the Howard's in
11:17
Speaker 3: there in the first round not in the play is
11:19
Speaker 3: that bad?
11:19
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe that's fine.
11:21
Speaker 2: When you go to the NCAA Tournament, you want to
11:24
Speaker 2: go to one of the sites. You want to go
11:26
Speaker 2: to Thursday Friday, sight because when does the NCAA Tournament
11:29
Speaker 2: start Thursday?
11:30
Speaker 1: Thursday Thursday. It does not start today or yesterday.
11:33
Speaker 2: So if I'm one of the sixteen seeds and it's
11:35
Speaker 2: gonna be my only time that I've ever played in
11:37
Speaker 2: the NCAA Tournament, I think it's ridiculous that you go
11:40
Speaker 2: to Dayton University. All due respect to the Flyers and
11:43
Speaker 2: their families, that's just not the nc DOUBLEA Tournament to me.
11:46
Speaker 2: I also think from just the economic standpoint and the
11:51
Speaker 2: television show standpoint, I don't need to watch UNBC, even
11:56
Speaker 2: though UNBC Howard was a great game last night. I
11:58
Speaker 2: would prefer to watch more teams and more brands and
12:02
Speaker 2: more bubble squads that are going to be ones that
12:04
Speaker 2: I'd recognize.
12:05
Speaker 1: I'm in Dayton, in Dayton Tuesday, Wednesday. I kind of
12:08
Speaker 1: like that.
12:08
Speaker 3: I think there's a point to be made there that
12:10
Speaker 3: you've earned your slot, you know, whatever kind of underdog
12:13
Speaker 3: you are. You've earned your slot into the big tournament,
12:15
Speaker 3: and therefore you shouldn't have to play again to earn
12:17
Speaker 3: your way in. But I think the flip side of
12:19
Speaker 3: that probably is, well, you want to see the good
12:21
Speaker 3: teams in there, not the bad team, So that's.
12:24
Speaker 1: True eight seven seven seven nine four seven three Nicolay Lott,
12:27
Speaker 1: I'm talking text on hot Texts don't have to be
12:29
Speaker 1: about sports. We like them. They can be about anything.
12:33
Speaker 1: It can be about movies, can be about food, can
12:35
Speaker 1: be about Arman's love of the Payday bar Well Ron
12:37
Speaker 1: in Stallas has one on what's the most underrated candy?
12:40
Speaker 3: Bar ronin Stallas? And Hot take salted nut rolls better
12:43
Speaker 3: than Payday. That's when I haven't had in a lot.
12:46
Speaker 2: Billy Pearson's, who is eating a salted nut rolls?
12:51
Speaker 1: Keeping Pearson's in business? If you're friends, if you like
12:53
Speaker 1: peanuts like I do, you know it just sounds bad.
12:57
Speaker 1: Is that why, Billy? Because it sounds salted nut roll?
13:00
Speaker 1: Is that why?
13:00
Speaker 3: Now?
13:01
Speaker 2: Because like the again, I like peanuts, no doubt about it.
13:03
Speaker 2: I prefer to just have like dry roasted peanuts instead
13:06
Speaker 2: of the vanilla nugat in the middle like I did
13:09
Speaker 2: that the cream filled in the nut roll is a
13:12
Speaker 2: tough one for me to get over.
13:13
Speaker 1: All right, Hot take hump Day, Hot take hump day.
13:16
Speaker 1: In this day and age, we've become a bit numb
13:19
Speaker 1: to price increases and what stuff costs. Right. That's sure,
13:22
Speaker 1: you're at the pump now, you're you're paying for gas.
13:25
Speaker 1: You're the way that the food went up and spiked
13:29
Speaker 1: during COVID stuff and never really came down. Groceries, fast food.
13:35
Speaker 1: People talk about stadium food. You get sticker shock, right,
13:39
Speaker 1: And I'm you kind of get numb to it after
13:41
Speaker 1: a while. You're just like, what is it is that is?
13:44
Speaker 1: You don't even like, God forbid you you get I know,
13:46
Speaker 1: arm it's too cheap to do door dash, uber eats
13:48
Speaker 1: or anything like that, But my god, you got that right. Economy.
13:54
Speaker 1: Last weekend we were in Kenosha, my wife's hometown, went
13:57
Speaker 1: to her favorite deli Rhyme with Tonuda's famous deli down there.
14:02
Speaker 1: It's like the place every town has their grappie market.
14:07
Speaker 1: In Bayview, there's the all those places. Bioso on Brady
14:15
Speaker 1: is like the institution in Kenosha where presidents have gone.
14:18
Speaker 1: Man went there and they have all kinds of the stuff,
14:22
Speaker 1: Like you know, they do a really good job there
14:24
Speaker 1: with Italian foods and just pecheeses, meats, salamis. But you
14:29
Speaker 1: know they also have like this candy isle. They do
14:32
Speaker 1: their own candy kind of stuff, and I like chocolate
14:35
Speaker 1: covered peanuts. They have double dip chocolate peanuts and making
14:40
Speaker 1: me think of the payday bar made me think of that.
14:42
Speaker 1: But as we're as I'm as they're in the fridge
14:45
Speaker 1: and where I'm packing, you don't pay attention. It's like,
14:47
Speaker 1: damn this little bag of the double dip chocolate peanuts
14:51
Speaker 1: nine ninety nine. Oh my gosh, that's like that's a lot,
14:55
Speaker 1: and it's like it's more than buying like the Ocono pack,
14:58
Speaker 1: the big pack of M and m's the share size.
15:03
Speaker 1: But it's like that's kind of out of way. I'm
15:05
Speaker 1: thinking to myself, like what if I told you fifteen
15:08
Speaker 1: twenty years ago that you're gonna pay ten bucks? Right?
15:10
Speaker 1: It is wild, like that's when we were paying ten
15:12
Speaker 1: bucks for CDs or you know, yep, like ten bucks
15:16
Speaker 1: for a bag of chocolate peanuts.
15:18
Speaker 2: Well, double dip chocolate peanuts, double double decks. So they
15:21
Speaker 2: are they are maybe I like the arts.
15:24
Speaker 1: I get the ones of the arts. Yeah, I'm sure
15:26
Speaker 1: they're not ten bucks. No, they're a lot cheaper than that.
15:28
Speaker 1: But I don't pick the bag is either. You know, well,
15:31
Speaker 1: and have you gone anytime you go? Now? It's like
15:34
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna buy a sandwich, a little meal combo,
15:37
Speaker 1: a Chick fil A seventeen ninety five. Yeah, well, and
15:41
Speaker 1: I haven't.
15:42
Speaker 2: I've been in the coffee and water and occasional gatorade
15:47
Speaker 2: drink for quite some time. But uh, my wife is
15:50
Speaker 2: big on the one of these new soda brand, one
15:52
Speaker 2: of the again healthy sodas.
15:54
Speaker 1: There's no such name Poppy or whatever.
15:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I walked down the soda island and obviously
15:58
Speaker 2: that one's gonna be a little expensive, right, we grab
16:01
Speaker 2: whatever those four packs are. Damn, I'm looking at a
16:04
Speaker 2: two liter of cola and that songs like seven.
16:08
Speaker 1: Its crazy, I mean, and look at the can.
16:10
Speaker 2: That was the one that blew my mind was the
16:12
Speaker 2: was the twelve pack of cans being like an eight dollars.
16:15
Speaker 1: That's the one.
16:15
Speaker 3: I mean, twelve packs used to be three bucks, like
16:18
Speaker 3: three for when did they triple? And do we think
16:21
Speaker 3: that's appropriate? Let's let's get together as a community and
16:24
Speaker 3: talk about that. Do we think that soda twelve packs
16:29
Speaker 3: should have tripled in price? Does anyone think that's normal? Yes,
16:33
Speaker 3: So that's another one. And then they get you with that, well,
16:36
Speaker 3: buy for get the fifth free. I'm not buying sixty
16:39
Speaker 3: cans a coke? Like, what do I look like?
16:43
Speaker 1: Come on? I thought you would have been proud of me.
16:44
Speaker 2: I walked out of there with six of them things
16:46
Speaker 2: because it was by two get one free. All he
16:49
Speaker 2: looks at me like, did we really need this much? Well, listen,
16:52
Speaker 2: I was cleaning that stanching out and make sure I
16:54
Speaker 2: got them things.
16:55
Speaker 1: With advantage of the deal. Oh and here's another hot take.
16:57
Speaker 3: I can't get the digital coupon because I can't clip
17:00
Speaker 3: it to my phone because I can't get service in
17:03
Speaker 3: a grocery store.
17:04
Speaker 1: All right, that's part of the scampis with the Armenian
17:07
Speaker 1: fired up to that one gets that one gets my goat,
17:11
Speaker 1: all right.
17:11
Speaker 3: But I'll tell you what. I know what a discount
17:13
Speaker 3: bakery is, so I feel that's true. I know you're
17:15
Speaker 3: you're gonna find that one.
17:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, good hot takes here today.
17:18
Speaker 2: Well, and I got a I got a good hot
17:20
Speaker 2: take and one that was a very very celebratory moment
17:23
Speaker 2: in the Schmid household yesterday. Uh hot, take the passing
17:27
Speaker 2: through the Senate of the Online Sports Betting Bill yesterday.
17:31
Speaker 2: One is one step closer to legalize sports betting and
17:36
Speaker 2: most importantly, the safest to sports betting in the state
17:39
Speaker 2: of Wisconsin.
17:40
Speaker 1: Now emphasize that bill.
17:42
Speaker 2: It's it's an interesting one and I saw some people wondering,
17:44
Speaker 2: is this gonna end DraftKings in the state. No, it's
17:47
Speaker 2: not like you're still gonna be able to do your
17:49
Speaker 2: Draft Kings contest. You'll still be able to do your
17:51
Speaker 2: daily fantasy contests throughout. However, the way that the bill
17:55
Speaker 2: is written, uh, it's through a uh model of a
18:01
Speaker 2: hub and spoke model where the hub the central server
18:04
Speaker 2: that every bet is taken on that you are on
18:07
Speaker 2: either the pot of Wotomy app. There's a potential ho
18:10
Speaker 2: chunk app that could be coming up. I know Oneida
18:12
Speaker 2: already has the blueprint, has their app where you can
18:14
Speaker 2: bet on tribal land through the server.
18:18
Speaker 1: But this one's gonna be different.
18:19
Speaker 2: This is going to allow you if and hopefully when
18:22
Speaker 2: passed through and signed by Governor Evers, that you'll be
18:27
Speaker 2: able to bet through the Potawatomy.
18:28
Speaker 1: Sportsbook, our favorite sports book on this program.
18:30
Speaker 2: And you'll be able to do so because the server
18:32
Speaker 2: will be in on tribal land, You'll be in the
18:35
Speaker 2: state of Wisconsin, and most importantly, Drew, every dollar that's
18:40
Speaker 2: invested in a legal sports book has eyes on it.
18:43
Speaker 2: Whatever this CALCI situation that again is getting sued once again,
18:46
Speaker 2: stunning Lee. None of those are governed or looked at
18:51
Speaker 2: or being able to be legalized and governed by any
18:56
Speaker 2: real institution. So this is where you can finally get
19:00
Speaker 2: safer and safer and safer into the sports investing market. Luckily,
19:04
Speaker 2: we're this close or this close where you go now,
19:06
Speaker 2: we only need two to We need these two bills.
19:08
Speaker 1: Big day for the nil thing, big day for the
19:11
Speaker 1: the sports gambling. And yes, yes, absolutely all right. We
19:15
Speaker 1: are reaching halftime time to make our adjustments to eat
19:18
Speaker 1: and uncrustable and orange slice perhaps I'm both, yes, yeah,
19:22
Speaker 1: and a ten gram per serving beef stick. There you go,
19:27
Speaker 1: Scott Dolphin, our halftime correspondent from the country station down
19:30
Speaker 1: the hall, he joins us. Next, it's the huddle Fox
19:33
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Wisconsin. Huddle Up, Wisconsin, Drew Billy and Arman
19:41
Speaker 1: bringing it to we welcome to the program our halftime
19:43
Speaker 1: correspondent Scott Dolphin from the Country Station down the hall,
19:46
Speaker 1: fresh from thanks from from St. Patrick's day. You were in,
19:50
Speaker 1: You're on the front lines. You were There were Kelly's
19:54
Speaker 1: Bleachers too and win Lake.
19:55
Speaker 4: That's always fun Kelly's Bleachers in wind Lake is is
19:58
Speaker 4: people line up at six clock because you get a
20:00
Speaker 4: free T shirt. A remember the T shirt for that
20:03
Speaker 4: Saint Patrick stick the big Yeah. You know, they had
20:05
Speaker 4: cheap breakfast and you know, one of beers for a
20:07
Speaker 4: dollar six, So all kinds of reasons to be there early.
20:10
Speaker 4: And just like I was looking at the footage around
20:12
Speaker 4: town yesterday, it was nuts everywhere, like the County Claire mcbob's,
20:15
Speaker 4: different legendary Milwaukee Irish bars.
20:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, they had pipers and dancers, pretty Trinity. The Marquete
20:21
Speaker 1: students were pregame class spot. I don't know what if
20:25
Speaker 1: Murphy's and Caffrey's had.
20:27
Speaker 3: The thing is, you know, you wanted to get the shirt,
20:28
Speaker 3: you wanted to get the beer deals. Also you wanted
20:30
Speaker 3: to be where everybody else was. And once upon a
20:32
Speaker 3: time that wasn't on the internet. It was actually what
20:34
Speaker 3: we went to go to bars. Yeah, everybody else was
20:37
Speaker 3: got Kaffrey's.
20:37
Speaker 4: I haven't thought about that years that my daughter, when
20:39
Speaker 4: she turned twenty one, had to had her first drink.
20:41
Speaker 1: That was my spot, my first legal drink.
20:43
Speaker 3: My only regret about turning twenty one when I did
20:45
Speaker 3: is that Caffrey's was under construction that summer, so the
20:48
Speaker 3: only one I could go to was Murphy's and Haggarty's.
20:50
Speaker 3: And I wanted to make the trinity the Caffreys, Murphy's,
20:53
Speaker 3: Haggarty's and get the shirts and d all the free
20:55
Speaker 3: stuff and like. So then I went back in after
20:58
Speaker 3: they were modeled and I said, hey, you know, you
21:00
Speaker 3: guys usually give on a free shirt and like pine
21:02
Speaker 3: class for twenty first my birthday was a summer when
21:04
Speaker 3: you guys and they're like, we're not giving you one.
21:08
Speaker 1: I thought there's gonna be app shaking them one of
21:11
Speaker 1: the free I can't believe that they didn't give me
21:13
Speaker 1: a free glass. You were asking for something free. I
21:16
Speaker 1: totally believe that.
21:16
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, that's the least surprising thing on
21:19
Speaker 2: hot take home Day we were going to hear today.
21:22
Speaker 1: Uhman, is the costanz of our program. That's awesome. Yeah.
21:25
Speaker 4: The thing about doing a radio show at bars though,
21:27
Speaker 4: on Saint Patrick's Day is it's it's pretty chill in
21:30
Speaker 4: the morning. When my first two years in Milwaukee I
21:32
Speaker 4: did nights, it's seven at midnight, and that was kind
21:36
Speaker 4: of scary at times. I remember my first year here
21:38
Speaker 4: where we were at the old Dairy's Dairy Haggerty's Irish
21:42
Speaker 4: Pub on which are now I think is dug out
21:43
Speaker 4: fifty four right, Yeah, so we're in there and I
21:46
Speaker 4: remember I had this table and I was in the
21:48
Speaker 4: back room, and it just the space kept getting smaller
21:51
Speaker 4: and smaller. I was like pinned against the wall. I thought,
21:53
Speaker 4: I gotta get the hell out of here. People are
21:55
Speaker 4: a lot wilder and rowdy. You're at eleven thirty at
21:57
Speaker 4: night than they are at That's true.
21:59
Speaker 1: I am on sane man. We've done bar gigs on
22:01
Speaker 1: opening day, which is the vibe. Right. What's the craziest
22:05
Speaker 1: thing you've seen on St. Patty's. I remember they had
22:07
Speaker 1: a Lucky Charms eating contest, but you had to eat
22:09
Speaker 1: bowls of Lucky Charms with dust and green beer, not
22:12
Speaker 1: with milk.
22:12
Speaker 4: Oh, that's nasty. We used to do show us your
22:16
Speaker 4: biggest green thing for concert tickets. And a dude died
22:20
Speaker 4: his horse one time, and an actual horse, an actual horse,
22:25
Speaker 4: and brought it to Water Street.
22:26
Speaker 1: We were at what what was the Irish pub? Pete
22:30
Speaker 1: could not have liked that.
22:32
Speaker 4: It wasn't McGill Cuttings. It was a different place, but
22:34
Speaker 4: it was.
22:37
Speaker 1: I don't remember. Maybe it was brother it was. I
22:40
Speaker 1: think it was Danny's.
22:41
Speaker 4: But this dude brought his horse away to go outside
22:43
Speaker 4: and say, okay, yeah, gotcha what he brought his horse
22:45
Speaker 4: and he died died of green.
22:47
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's gonna be tough to beat. Yeah, drove it
22:51
Speaker 1: in a trailer downtown.
22:53
Speaker 4: And watt can you guys come out here? Because I can't?
22:56
Speaker 4: They said, I can't bring the horse through that. I
22:58
Speaker 4: feel like you can double part that one.
23:00
Speaker 3: Feel like if if you're double parked in by a
23:02
Speaker 3: guy with a green horse, you're probably waiting to see
23:05
Speaker 3: it out.
23:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, You're probably like, I'm.
23:07
Speaker 3: Not gonna leave anyway here, I'm gonna see you want
23:09
Speaker 3: to Yeah, if I go through the effort in trouble
23:12
Speaker 3: to dye my horse green, I want some you know,
23:14
Speaker 3: media attention.
23:16
Speaker 4: I want to be able to maybe go to the
23:17
Speaker 4: town of Aaron. You know, they had their Saint Patrick. Sure,
23:20
Speaker 4: right something you got to get the horse out. Kind
23:23
Speaker 4: of surprised. I mean, nowadays he would have been able
23:25
Speaker 4: to bring that in. It would have been your emotional support,
23:27
Speaker 4: green horse into the bar. But I love I love
23:29
Speaker 4: the fact that that was the thought. What we're really
23:32
Speaker 4: gonna do is we're gonna go all out here and
23:34
Speaker 4: pony get over here and get green because we're gonna
23:37
Speaker 4: make sure that we are celebrating this thing.
23:38
Speaker 1: Right.
23:39
Speaker 3: Yeah, that is pretty good. I mean that, Yeah, that's
23:41
Speaker 3: hard to top.
23:42
Speaker 1: I like people, and I tip my cap to people
23:45
Speaker 1: who go out and socialize and who open bars on
23:48
Speaker 1: Saint Patrick's Day. Sure, but it's like maybe it's a
23:50
Speaker 1: contrarian to me. It's like, all right, that's like, you know,
23:53
Speaker 1: there's an amateur hour element to it. Let's do that.
23:56
Speaker 1: Let's do a Tuesday. Let's go on a Tuesday at
23:58
Speaker 1: six a m. Yeah, October and there's for in the
24:02
Speaker 1: middle of the nothing Tuesday that's not a holiday. And
24:04
Speaker 1: people didn't come out to see my people out at
24:06
Speaker 1: the would be fun yesterday, Drew.
24:08
Speaker 4: These people were dedicated, man, they had itineraries, so they were,
24:12
Speaker 4: they were hitting us at early and then they were
24:14
Speaker 4: gonna go h someplace that had back, you know, Irish
24:18
Speaker 4: dancers and bagpipers. And then they were there was an
24:20
Speaker 4: Irish stew deal somewhere up on North Avenue, and so
24:23
Speaker 4: they were going there next and there and they're gonna
24:25
Speaker 4: head downtown for the evening. And it's like every hour
24:28
Speaker 4: was planned out for Saint Patrick's.
24:29
Speaker 1: Tab coll of cab. It's old school. Hey go, yeah,
24:32
Speaker 1: but ride the bus for free, right again, Let's do
24:34
Speaker 1: that on a Let's do that on a Tuesday in
24:36
Speaker 1: June or October when there's no reason. That's when you're
24:39
Speaker 1: a game. That's when you're going on a heater. Yeah,
24:41
Speaker 1: that's true.
24:42
Speaker 2: And and just the random Tuesday, uh send is something
24:46
Speaker 2: that I definitely will miss. I do though, like Saint
24:49
Speaker 2: Patrick's day, that itinerary, I would probably be the worst
24:53
Speaker 2: person in that group because I'd be trying anything and
24:55
Speaker 2: everything to throw that itinerary off. My man has worked
24:58
Speaker 2: so hard on that bed on his schedule. We have
25:02
Speaker 2: fourteen more minutes, so make sure you finish up your
25:04
Speaker 2: Irish car mom now, so that we can get ourselves
25:07
Speaker 2: over to our next pot.
25:08
Speaker 1: I would have been the worst guy in that group.
25:11
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you find a place you want to leave,
25:13
Speaker 4: that's that's gonna throw a wrench.
25:14
Speaker 1: I think we're having a good time here. Why do
25:15
Speaker 1: we want to leave?
25:16
Speaker 3: It?
25:16
Speaker 1: Got pancake deals? What are we doing a good time?
25:19
Speaker 3: Someone in your group struck up a conversation with a
25:22
Speaker 3: nice young lass.
25:23
Speaker 1: You know, las would be a last kick. That's a
25:27
Speaker 1: completely different army.
25:28
Speaker 4: And then you have that perfect storm year where the
25:31
Speaker 4: March Madness and Saint Patrick's Day fall in the same day.
25:33
Speaker 1: That happens quite yeah, well we went through that yesterday.
25:36
Speaker 1: Do you like that or do you like it better
25:38
Speaker 1: when there are two separate parties. I like it when
25:41
Speaker 1: it's together.
25:42
Speaker 4: Means like it because you the bars are going to
25:44
Speaker 4: be crowded anyway, but then you have that element of
25:46
Speaker 4: people in there just all going.
25:48
Speaker 1: That's a game. Yeah. It gives you something to watch
25:50
Speaker 1: rather than just like, oh, there's the Irish dancers. Oh
25:52
Speaker 1: here's it. You know exactly because after a while up
25:55
Speaker 1: green beer. Great.
25:56
Speaker 2: Maybe it's just because I just always gravitated towards television,
26:00
Speaker 2: but you do like, in whatever bar, I do have
26:02
Speaker 2: to see what's going on to you. There's only so
26:04
Speaker 2: much people watching you can do for thirteen fourteen hours.
26:06
Speaker 2: It also then gives another opportunity for there to be
26:10
Speaker 2: people that are losing their minds. And then the one
26:13
Speaker 2: young lady walks by this.
26:14
Speaker 1: Why are you mad? Yeah, well because I just lost.
26:18
Speaker 2: I had UNBC catching twelve and a half here and
26:21
Speaker 2: they just got doubled up and lost. They gave up
26:24
Speaker 2: a nin o run with the final thirteen seconds. That's
26:26
Speaker 2: why I'm playing. Is that your bracket? Wait a minute,
26:29
Speaker 2: is that your bracket? So I did they need to win?
26:32
Speaker 3: Oh? Wait, I had this team. I had a cousin
26:34
Speaker 3: that went of on all of us. I'm chairing for them, Like,
26:37
Speaker 3: all right, cool, I'm trying to watch the ball here.
26:39
Speaker 3: Try call me your stars. World problems. So the Saint
26:43
Speaker 3: Patrick's Stay thing.
26:44
Speaker 1: We had the playing games in the Turn, but we
26:46
Speaker 1: had the World Baseball Classic, which was last night, great theater.
26:50
Speaker 4: Oh all three games were incredible, I mean frustrating. The
26:53
Speaker 4: United States couldn't hit their way out of a paper bag. Yeah,
26:56
Speaker 4: Aaron Judge looking at two right down the middle called
26:58
Speaker 4: third strikes.
26:59
Speaker 1: But yeah, it was. It was a great night.
27:01
Speaker 4: I mean that first game I thought, oh, this is
27:02
Speaker 4: going to get out of hand. Unbc's not going to
27:04
Speaker 4: go back. All of a sudden, you had a finish
27:06
Speaker 4: that was exciting, controversial, with a coach coming on the
27:10
Speaker 4: floor and telling the officially he needs a time out
27:13
Speaker 4: after the ball was already in play. And then the
27:15
Speaker 4: second game, what one second left the kid from Texas
27:17
Speaker 4: hits the jumper.
27:18
Speaker 1: Two great college basketball games.
27:20
Speaker 4: I loved that first four At first, I thought, Oh,
27:22
Speaker 4: this is just you're just trying to appease the people
27:25
Speaker 4: that don't get in whatever.
27:26
Speaker 1: I love that event. It's great.
27:27
Speaker 4: And last night you had Charles Barkley and Dick Vitale
27:30
Speaker 4: on the call of the second.
27:31
Speaker 1: With BA who was not a good voice by the
27:33
Speaker 1: way he was.
27:34
Speaker 4: I hope he's better by Opening day because he about
27:37
Speaker 4: lost his voice last night trying to call that.
27:38
Speaker 2: Well and he was struggling. And the funny thing is, listen,
27:41
Speaker 2: Dicky v and Charles Barkley were ready to pick up
27:43
Speaker 2: the slack. My guys were just doing a podcast during
27:47
Speaker 2: the game, and as somebody that wants to hear all
27:51
Speaker 2: of the Dick Vitale we possibly can before sadly we
27:54
Speaker 2: can no longer right until we can't, dude. That was
27:57
Speaker 2: beautiful listening to him and Barkley just gushing over each
28:01
Speaker 2: other for top hours.
28:02
Speaker 1: It's awesome. Barkley's just a treasure.
28:05
Speaker 4: I mean when he's talking to the studio guys that
28:07
Speaker 4: Jamal Nashburn said, what do you think of Kentucky's chances
28:10
Speaker 4: this year?
28:11
Speaker 3: Do you go?
28:12
Speaker 4: I got bad news for you, Jamal. He said, they
28:15
Speaker 4: get to the second weekend, they'll be lucky.
28:16
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's funny. I don't we know that by now.
28:19
Speaker 1: But I also did like that Barkley was just pulling
28:21
Speaker 1: no punches.
28:22
Speaker 2: He's like, hey, man, I got to be out of
28:23
Speaker 2: here because there's random people coming to the studio knocking
28:26
Speaker 2: on the door. We have the bomb ass security over
28:28
Speaker 2: your TND. Nobody's even thinking security, So I got to
28:32
Speaker 2: be over on the road. There's ridiculous.
28:33
Speaker 4: They give us all the same combination codes. All of
28:36
Speaker 4: our lockers have the same four digit codes.
28:38
Speaker 1: Hilarious.
28:38
Speaker 4: So if you get he said, you guys want to
28:40
Speaker 4: go check out me or Shack or Kenny's.
28:42
Speaker 1: Locker, you just go right now. So good. So Dick
28:46
Speaker 1: Vitel is what eighty six? I think right? That sounds
28:48
Speaker 1: about right Yep, sounds about right. All was coach Holtz
28:51
Speaker 1: because it seemed like Dick Vitel is younger and more
28:54
Speaker 1: there's more vitality. I think Holt Holtz was.
28:57
Speaker 4: Ninety, wasn't any and looked out. I want to I
29:00
Speaker 4: don't know that he hit nine. Uh, I think he
29:03
Speaker 4: just eight eighty nine. Okay, same as Bob's about Dicky
29:07
Speaker 4: v had his health issues.
29:09
Speaker 1: He did a lot of them. Yeah, a lot of
29:11
Speaker 1: man still going.
29:12
Speaker 2: He's still like you know, and there's nobody that's happier
29:15
Speaker 2: to be on a microphone than fights to be back
29:17
Speaker 2: because he waited a long time.
29:18
Speaker 1: He couldn't talk, he had the voice issues.
29:20
Speaker 3: A long time he had He was tweeting about it
29:23
Speaker 3: a lot, and am just so happy to see him
29:25
Speaker 3: back doing what he loves the most.
29:27
Speaker 1: I mean, and that's what Barkley was gushing on last night.
29:29
Speaker 4: He's never met anybody that has done more for college
29:31
Speaker 4: basketball that wasn't on the court, because on the court,
29:34
Speaker 4: he was just kind of a guy.
29:35
Speaker 1: Right. Yeah, briefly coached the Pistons, coach the university the
29:39
Speaker 1: University Detroit.
29:40
Speaker 4: Yeah, the Pistons, but it was not a memorable career.
29:42
Speaker 4: But off the court in Barkley's right. I mean, the
29:44
Speaker 4: guy is just he flies the flag every single day
29:46
Speaker 4: of the year for college basketball. I gotta be honest
29:49
Speaker 4: with you, and you probably I don't know how you feel,
29:51
Speaker 4: Drew back in the day, but I thought we were
29:53
Speaker 4: it was Dicky V over at least to call him Dukie, yeah,
29:56
Speaker 4: because it was.
29:57
Speaker 1: It was Yeah, it was also get out. The excitement
30:01
Speaker 1: is infectious, right yeah. But now I've grown to love
30:04
Speaker 1: him like a lot of people have over the year.
30:06
Speaker 3: Is John fans of the next Dicky V? Some people
30:08
Speaker 3: have said that the star. Yeah, yeah, he is an
30:11
Speaker 3: absolute star. I love the game of college basketball, you know, so.
30:15
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a star.
30:16
Speaker 2: Dicky V was one of the first ever sins where
30:19
Speaker 2: I got the self addressed stamped envelope and sent a
30:24
Speaker 2: letter asking for an autograph picture and I got the.
30:26
Speaker 1: Sweetest eight by ten. Call me a typer, Dan, d
30:31
Speaker 1: you got that from me. It was one of the
30:33
Speaker 1: coolest things right there in my bedroom for a big star.
30:40
Speaker 1: Baby A great moment.
30:43
Speaker 3: There are some guys, you know, when you would go
30:47
Speaker 3: they would personify big game. Right, so you go to
30:50
Speaker 3: a game, and when he when I went to my
30:52
Speaker 3: the first time he called the market game that I
30:53
Speaker 3: was at, the excitement was incredible. You're you just get goosebumps, like,
30:56
Speaker 3: Dicky V's here. We're the biggest deal in college with
30:59
Speaker 3: Dan Shulman. Shulman or yeah, that Shulman was with Dicky V.
31:03
Speaker 3: And that's when Jay Bills was, you know, starting out
31:05
Speaker 3: younger as well and doing those games.
31:07
Speaker 1: Yeah Shulman. That was awesome.
31:09
Speaker 3: So those days were great because you're like, oh, my goodness,
31:13
Speaker 3: you know, Dicky V's here. He would usually do a
31:15
Speaker 3: little thing where he'd go by the band in the
31:16
Speaker 3: student section and conduct the bank this is our moment.
31:20
Speaker 3: Like I remember I had my disposable camera trying to
31:23
Speaker 3: take a picture of man. You know. So because of that,
31:26
Speaker 3: it just increases your enjoyment a.
31:27
Speaker 1: Guy like that of the game more as a fan.
31:30
Speaker 1: So it's pretty awesome. College basketball is in a good
31:32
Speaker 1: place right now.
31:32
Speaker 3: You know what.
31:33
Speaker 4: Those crews that they have for the NC Double Tournament
31:35
Speaker 4: are good. Who's doing the big ten terms? I love
31:36
Speaker 4: Iron Eagle.
31:37
Speaker 1: He's great, right, He's really good. Yeah, I U Billis
31:42
Speaker 1: last year said he got some heat because they have
31:44
Speaker 1: to make them predict the games and he went all
31:46
Speaker 1: chalk ended up being right. Yeah, all four number one
31:49
Speaker 1: seeds last year. Wow, I think that's the case this year.
31:51
Speaker 1: Duke's got too many injuries, the little three point variants. Yeah,
31:55
Speaker 1: oh yeah, come on, more of that. I think there's
31:57
Speaker 1: a big gap between the top like six eight teams
32:00
Speaker 1: and everybody else. But it's still a little bit more
32:02
Speaker 1: open than it's felt.
32:04
Speaker 4: Barkley last night said it's the Arizona Invitational and three
32:08
Speaker 4: other teams too interesting.
32:10
Speaker 1: I like that, Yeah, I like them.
32:12
Speaker 2: That's a really, really tough matchup if Wisconsin can get
32:15
Speaker 2: through Arkansas and go take on Arizona in that West
32:17
Speaker 2: West spot. But Arizona hasn't won a national title like
32:20
Speaker 2: thirty plus ninety seven ninety seven, and.
32:23
Speaker 3: That's the last time any team in the west western
32:27
Speaker 3: half of the country's won the national title.
32:29
Speaker 1: Wow.
32:29
Speaker 3: I think anything west of Kansas, right, so it wouldn't
32:32
Speaker 3: be the Mississippi River, but no one west of Kansas
32:35
Speaker 3: has won the national title since ninety seven when Arizona
32:38
Speaker 3: did it.
32:38
Speaker 1: What I'm gonna be asked this on a TV show
32:40
Speaker 1: coming up? What is your all time favorite NCAA tournament
32:45
Speaker 1: March Madness memory?
32:47
Speaker 3: Well, it's easy for me, and it's two thousand and
32:49
Speaker 3: three markete. So I'll start right that's you.
32:51
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I guess yeah. If we're going homerism like that,
32:55
Speaker 4: for me, it would have been when I was a
32:57
Speaker 4: young man. The last time Iowa went to the Final
32:58
Speaker 4: four was nineteen eighty and so yeah, so that was
33:02
Speaker 4: probably mine, although if you're just talking about a moment,
33:05
Speaker 4: it was probably Bryce Drew.
33:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, great, one. Those are the best moments. So I'm
33:09
Speaker 1: thinking of like the Jimmy v moment like that, a
33:12
Speaker 1: whole era like that, that early eighties Ero was pretty spectacle.
33:16
Speaker 3: It was.
33:16
Speaker 4: It was pretty amazing him running around the court, and
33:19
Speaker 4: nobody wanted to hug it, looking for somebody to hug it.
33:21
Speaker 1: Nobody to hug my.
33:22
Speaker 2: Mine was when I was a freshman at Wittnell High
33:24
Speaker 2: School and it was the day of the national title
33:26
Speaker 2: game and I was in the I was in the library.
33:29
Speaker 1: That's usually where I spent most of my time.
33:30
Speaker 2: Sure, Sure, and one of the senior captain from the
33:34
Speaker 2: football team, al she has walked with me, goes Billy
33:36
Speaker 2: Duke Winston.
33:37
Speaker 1: Duke Winston, you win the you win my bracket pool?
33:41
Speaker 2: What?
33:41
Speaker 1: So this was Wisconsin Duke. This was Butler du Butler Duke,
33:45
Speaker 1: Butler Duke.
33:47
Speaker 2: And when Gordon Hayward's ball bounced off the back and
33:50
Speaker 2: the rim and bounced off, I had never been so elated.
33:54
Speaker 1: That was almost fun.
33:55
Speaker 3: The craziest fish in the history of tournament. I mean
33:57
Speaker 3: a half quarter was Indiana for Butler.
33:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, like that.
34:00
Speaker 3: That would have been crazy to be Duke. That would
34:01
Speaker 3: have been the ultimate Hoosier's moment.
34:03
Speaker 4: Brad Stevens, Gordon Hayward, those teams were locked and loaded.
34:07
Speaker 4: Now two straight years, right, they made it to the
34:09
Speaker 4: and one.
34:09
Speaker 3: Year they were like an eight C. They weren't even
34:11
Speaker 3: exposed to that one year. Yeah, so impressive.
34:14
Speaker 1: Is that the moment for you? That's when the degenerate
34:16
Speaker 1: was born?
34:17
Speaker 3: Oh?
34:17
Speaker 1: Well, that was that.
34:19
Speaker 2: That lamp was lit earlier on in my lifetime, when
34:21
Speaker 2: my dad and uncles were sitting around talking about it
34:24
Speaker 2: at the tailgate of wondering if they should put a
34:25
Speaker 2: hondie on the packers, I'm.
34:26
Speaker 1: Like that, Wait what happens? So wait if they win
34:28
Speaker 1: by a certain amount and they win money, Wait, that's
34:30
Speaker 1: how that happens. Okay, I like this, look what you've
34:34
Speaker 1: got dollars. Let's go. Maybe you should put some money
34:37
Speaker 1: on Miami of Ohio tonight, Billy, I.
34:40
Speaker 2: Am interested in that. I'm very very interested in that
34:44
Speaker 2: right now. My favorite underdog is Troy. Okay, my favorite
34:48
Speaker 2: underdog is Troy in the uh father off Okay, bred
34:52
Speaker 2: Hoiberg's son on the team, coach of Troy. His son's
34:57
Speaker 2: on the team, his second son committed to go on
35:00
Speaker 2: to the team. His third son might be even better.
35:03
Speaker 2: So it really depends on who's the better father in
35:06
Speaker 2: this game.
35:06
Speaker 1: If their team is a there you go. I wish
35:08
Speaker 1: I knew more about Troy basketball. Me too, Dolph, thanks
35:11
Speaker 1: for popping in. Appreciate the halftime reports. Got Dolphin the
35:13
Speaker 1: country station down the Hall. It's the Huddle, Fox Sports
35:16
Speaker 1: Radio Wisconsin, Drew, Billy and arm and bring it to
35:25
Speaker 1: you on the Huddle, Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. Hot take.
35:28
Speaker 1: Humpday continues eight seven, seven, seven, nine to four, one
35:31
Speaker 1: ninety seven to three. Hot take. It's entirely appropriate that
35:35
Speaker 1: the Packers are going to honor Bob Harlan by putting
35:37
Speaker 1: his name on the facade of lambeau Field. Also hot take,
35:41
Speaker 1: some might be surprised it wasn't already up there. They
35:43
Speaker 1: could have done it while he was alive, like after
35:45
Speaker 1: his retirement.
35:46
Speaker 2: To hot take, I thought they did it ten years ago.
35:49
Speaker 2: Honestly messed up, Drew, I thought they did it a
35:51
Speaker 2: long time ago. But hey, I'm glad. I'm glad that
35:53
Speaker 2: they are going to be able to bestow that honor
35:55
Speaker 2: upon Bob and his entire family because they're gonna be
35:58
Speaker 2: able to celebrate it forever.
35:59
Speaker 1: Now. The other hot take is we love our round
36:01
Speaker 1: number anniversaries and sports. But okay, so it's the tenth
36:05
Speaker 1: anniversary of Bronson Kanag hitting the shot that was yesterday.
36:08
Speaker 1: That's a good one, yes and with two of the
36:10
Speaker 1: great calls. And then just saw a story in the
36:13
Speaker 1: Journal center this year, Happy anniversary. Am fam Field turns
36:18
Speaker 1: twenty five? How about that? And it's looking pretty good
36:21
Speaker 1: at twenty five, twenty five years into American Family Fields.
36:24
Speaker 1: Credits to the Brewers and everybody else involved for maintaining.
36:27
Speaker 3: It, improving it over the year, keeping it nice. Bible
36:30
Speaker 3: always consistently one of the cleaner stadiums. They always talk
36:33
Speaker 3: about that. And the thing is in an era where
36:36
Speaker 3: a lot of MLB stadiums haven't lasted that long. This
36:40
Speaker 3: is around the time where some places they've been looking
36:42
Speaker 3: for new stadiums. Think about Atlanta, Texas. I think Arizona wants.
36:45
Speaker 1: One maybe or they Yeah, they're trying to get once.
36:47
Speaker 1: So I think the fifth year that it's been am
36:49
Speaker 1: Fam Field, since it was Miller Parks, we've maintained, we
36:52
Speaker 1: maintained our We've happened. Yeah, we maintained our thing really well.
36:56
Speaker 1: And therefore should our car should last?
36:57
Speaker 3: You know well?
36:58
Speaker 2: And I mean there's also a significant amount of money
37:00
Speaker 2: that's gonna get dumped into it to preserve the longevity
37:03
Speaker 2: of it.
37:03
Speaker 1: But it wasn't for that first twenty years. Then then
37:06
Speaker 1: you would have been in a.
37:07
Speaker 2: Spot where you're like, Okay, it's gonna cost what six
37:09
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty million to renovate this more than they
37:13
Speaker 2: are we interested in thinking of just going one point
37:15
Speaker 2: two billion in building a new one. But then you
37:17
Speaker 2: get into the cycle that you just do it far
37:19
Speaker 2: too often. One other one hot take this young man.
37:23
Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys remember Jason mclewin, oh,
37:28
Speaker 2: a pistol Yeah, diagnosed with autism at the age of
37:31
Speaker 2: two nineteen years ago. Yesterday, the viral moment the viral
37:37
Speaker 2: moment when he walked into a game and not just
37:41
Speaker 2: dropping himself a quick three drew.
37:43
Speaker 1: He scored twenty points because he was out of a pistol.
37:45
Speaker 1: He said it.
37:46
Speaker 2: He just knocked down every three, imaginable. He missed the first,
37:50
Speaker 2: missed the second.
37:51
Speaker 1: And then he hit a three, and another and another
37:54
Speaker 1: and another and then a buzzer beater, and his team
37:56
Speaker 1: just kept feeding them and on the shoulders. That was
37:59
Speaker 1: a great nineteen years ago, no quest. Is he our
38:02
Speaker 1: current electric superhero the day?
38:04
Speaker 2: Well, you know what, for the memory of that, I
38:06
Speaker 2: was going to give him the superhero of the Game
