- 3:21Speaker 3: Oh, happy Thursday to you all. A little teaching moment
- 3:24Speaker 3: for you.
- 3:25Speaker 1: Uh, Thursday nights, uh, when I was a kid, I mean,
- 3:28Speaker 1: there wasn't Thursday night football. Thursday night football is the
- 3:31Speaker 1: new must-see TV. When I was a kid, there was, um,
- 3:35Speaker 1: and we didn't have cable growing up. We were poors.
- 3:39Speaker 3: Uh, and so there was a television lineup.
- 3:42Speaker 1: On Thursdays that when you went to school that day,
- 3:44Speaker 1: it like gave you an extra skip in your step, Anders. Okay.
- 3:48Speaker 1: Because you couldn't wait to get home and then you
- 3:50Speaker 1: get home and you go play outdoors and And then
- 3:53Speaker 1: you would just sit there and you'd just concentrate on
- 3:55Speaker 1: that because it would fill the time.
- 3:56Speaker 3: And then mom would call you in for dinner.
- 3:58Speaker 1: And then you knew that dinner was going to be
- 4:00Speaker 1: followed by 7 o'clock Cosby show.
- 4:04Speaker 3: Family ties. Cheers and night court. That's awesome.
- 4:07Speaker 1: Must-see TV is what they called it back in the
- 4:09Speaker 1: day on NBC. And now Thursday Night Football is sort
- 4:12Speaker 1: of the new must-see. Now that we have good games,
- 4:15Speaker 1: now that they don't give us the crap game of
- 4:17Speaker 1: the week like they used to.
- 4:18Speaker 7: It's true.
- 4:18Speaker 1: They used to stick teams in uniforms that look like
- 4:21Speaker 1: sticks of deodorant bars. Remember they did that neon monochrome
- 4:26Speaker 1: thing there for a while?
- 4:27Speaker 9: Yeah.
- 4:28Speaker 3: And it was like bad teams wearing bad uniforms. The
- 4:30Speaker 3: color rush.
- 4:31Speaker 7: Yes.
- 4:32Speaker 1: And we weren't exactly fired up then. But now that
- 4:36Speaker 1: they give us great games like we're going to have
- 4:38Speaker 1: tonight and gets the week started, yeah, a little extra
- 4:42Speaker 1: skipping my stuff for Thursdays here on the radio program.
- 4:46Speaker 5: I agree.
- 4:47Speaker 3: I think it is kind of the must-see TV.
- 4:49Speaker 8: I love football games during the week because you don't
- 4:51Speaker 8: have to wait until the weekend.
- 4:52Speaker 3: You don't have to wait until the weekend.
- 4:53Speaker 1: A little night action and, you know.
- 4:56Speaker 7: Whoa.
- 4:57Speaker 3: Night action.
- 4:58Speaker 5: Night action.
- 4:59Speaker 1: That's right. I always make sweet love after every Thursday
- 5:03Speaker 1: Night Football game. No matter who's around, I just do it.
- 5:08Speaker 1: I just do it.
- 5:10Speaker 5: All right.
- 5:10Speaker 1: Well, let's get the hour started here. Hour number two
- 5:14Speaker 1: here on this Thursday with your headlines brought to you
- 5:17Speaker 1: by Frost Brewed Coors Light.
- 5:18Speaker 3: Cold as the Rockies.
- 5:20Speaker 1: Thursday Night Football will feature the New England Patriots at
- 5:23Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears. Mike Sandel will join us today at 930.
- 5:27Speaker 1: Of course, the big game that confronts us is the
- 5:29Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks hosting the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs.
- 5:32Speaker 3: That's Sunday night football.
- 5:34Speaker 1: We'll have the entire stage to ourselves on Sunday night football.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Our 12-man roundtable should be intact for an entire hour today.
- 5:41Speaker 1: Greg and Hugh coming your way 8 to 9 to
- 5:44Speaker 1: break it all down. We'll also discuss it ourselves here
- 5:46Speaker 1: in a matter of moments. College football, not as good
- 5:50Speaker 1: a week. this week as we had last week, but
- 5:52Speaker 1: last week was a phenomenal week of matchups, so we
- 5:55Speaker 1: kind of have to accept that.
- 5:56Speaker 3: Of course. The hot and the cold. Take the good
- 5:58Speaker 3: with the bad.
- 5:58Speaker 1: Yeah, the Huskies are on by, so maybe with the
- 6:01Speaker 1: colder week, you know, maybe you go out and clean
- 6:03Speaker 1: the garage on Saturday.
- 6:04Speaker 3: Yeah, why not? Or just watch Ole Miss and Texas and.
- 6:08Speaker 1: Put the garage off.
- 6:08Speaker 3: Or watch the World Series. Or watch the World Series
- 6:11Speaker 3: at 5 o'clock. That's a great.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Suggestion. Huskies are on by. That won't stop us from
- 6:17Speaker 1: chatting with Softie today at 725 Thursdays with Softie. World
- 6:20Speaker 1: Series game number one will be played tomorrow, now that
- 6:23Speaker 1: you brought it up, 5 o'clock. Tampa Bay still has
- 6:26Speaker 1: not named its starter for game one. I would think
- 6:29Speaker 1: it's Drew Rasmussen. I mean, he had a lot of
- 6:31Speaker 1: days off this week. I would think he would be
- 6:33Speaker 1: ready to go, but we'll see. Jacob Mizorowski will pitch
- 6:37Speaker 1: for the Milwaukee Brewers. That's going to be a tremendous
- 6:39Speaker 1: atmosphere in Wisconsin Friday night. And this is really an
- 6:43Speaker 1: outstanding World Series matchup. It's one of the better ones
- 6:46Speaker 1: in a while.
- 6:46Speaker 8: No matter the brands, guys, don't just get sucked into that.
- 6:50Speaker 8: Think about the teams, the players. These are the two
- 6:53Speaker 8: best teams in baseball.
- 6:54Speaker 5: Period.
- 6:55Speaker 3: Full stop.
- 6:56Speaker 5: End of story.
- 6:56Speaker 3: They have been all year long. It's going to be awesome.
- 6:58Speaker 1: I think that is absolutely accurate. Mariners managerial search kind
- 7:05Speaker 1: of took on some new layers yesterday.
- 7:08Speaker 3: Steven Vogt has entered the picture.
- 7:11Speaker 1: The Cleveland Guardians manager, former coach for the M's. He apparently,
- 7:17Speaker 1: with his Seattle ties, is not ruling out the idea
- 7:20Speaker 1: of coming to Seattle. Maybe even once, too, were the
- 7:24Speaker 1: national reports yesterday. Of course, that will probably involve a trade.
- 7:29Speaker 1: You'd have to give up some pieces in order to
- 7:31Speaker 1: get Steven Vogt, but the Mariners have not made their
- 7:35Speaker 1: managerial announcement yet. And this rumor didn't start until after
- 7:39Speaker 1: the Guardians were eliminated. There could be some legs to
- 7:42Speaker 1: this particular rumor. I think if you got a shot
- 7:45Speaker 1: at him, you got to go for it. I mean,
- 7:47Speaker 1: there's a price that you don't pay, for sure. But
- 7:50Speaker 1: I'm going to find out what that price is. I mean,
- 7:52Speaker 1: he'd be my number one choice at this point. They
- 7:55Speaker 1: have to nail it. this decision.
- 7:58Speaker 5: They just have to.
- 7:59Speaker 1: Mitch Garver retired yesterday. Can't kick Mitch Garver around anymore.
- 8:03Speaker 1: WNBA Finals. The Atlanta Dream won over the Golden State
- 8:06Speaker 1: Valkyries by 26. They are one win away from the championship.
- 8:11Speaker 1: NBA night number two last night. The new Wolves blasted
- 8:15Speaker 1: the new look heat. Meanwhile, the Sounders will be taking
- 8:19Speaker 1: on San Diego on Saturday and the Kraken will host
- 8:21Speaker 1: the Mammoth tonight at 7 p.m. Kraken Mammoth. tonight right
- 8:26Speaker 1: here at Sports Radio. 93.3 KJR FM. But the big topic,
- 8:31Speaker 1: let's face it, is your Seattle Seahawks getting ready to
- 8:35Speaker 1: take on the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night. Doesn't
- 8:39Speaker 1: feel like any other game to me, and I... Didn't
- 8:43Speaker 1: even wear both of these uniforms at any point. Turns
- 8:46Speaker 1: out I didn't wear either of these uniforms at any
- 8:49Speaker 1: time in my life.
- 8:50Speaker 10: Really?
- 8:50Speaker 1: I don't know if you knew that, but I've never
- 8:51Speaker 1: been a Chief and I've never been a SEAL.
- 8:53Speaker 3: Okay, well, allegedly. So let's just clear that up. Yeah,
- 8:56Speaker 3: I thought you were a former NFL player. Well, I'm
- 8:59Speaker 3: sorry to disappoint you. Didn't you average like 75 yards
- 9:02Speaker 3: a carry or something? Okay, I'm going to, okay, okay.
- 9:05Speaker 3: Let's set the record straight here. You outed me.
- 9:08Speaker 1: It's time to finally come clean on this. Chuck Powell's
- 9:10Speaker 1: always been my alias.
- 9:13Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
- 9:14Speaker 1: I hope this comes as good news. I was just
- 9:15Speaker 1: trying to protect my family, their identity, and their safety.
- 9:20Speaker 1: I'm really Stan Gelbaugh.
- 9:22Speaker 5: Oh! Wow!
- 9:24Speaker 1: Yeah, so anyway, welcome to the Stan Gelbaugh Show. Stan
- 9:29Speaker 1: in the mornings for you.
- 9:30Speaker 3: Stan in the mornings.
- 9:32Speaker 1: It's great to have you with us here on the
- 9:35Speaker 1: radio program.
- 9:36Speaker 3: Thanks for finally coming, Clint.
- 9:37Speaker 1: Yeah, sorry about that.
- 9:38Speaker 3: How many people knew about this?
- 9:40Speaker 1: Just my wife.
- 9:41Speaker 3: Okay.
- 9:42Speaker 1: You didn't even know I was married. I didn't. Shout out, Ms.
- 9:44Speaker 5: Powell.
- 9:45Speaker 7: No, Ms. Gelbaugh.
- 9:46Speaker 5: Ms.
- 9:46Speaker 1: Gelbaugh.
- 9:46Speaker 3: Oh, you got me, son of a bitch.
- 9:48Speaker 5: How did that happen?
- 9:49Speaker 1: And it is Mrs. Okay. She's proud to be married
- 9:51Speaker 1: to me.
- 9:52Speaker 5: Mrs.
- 9:52Speaker 1: So she doesn't just use the Ms.
- 9:55Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 9:55Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 9:56Speaker 3: Okay. But anyway, cat's out of the bag, I guess.
- 9:59Speaker 1: Now we know that. Now Hugh understands why I have
- 10:03Speaker 1: such a grasp of the quarterback game.
- 10:09Speaker 3: And I've had it all this time.
- 10:11Speaker 5: Oh, yes.
- 10:11Speaker 1: All right. But so, yeah, to me, I mean, this
- 10:15Speaker 1: feels like a game of significance. But Ken Walker says,
- 10:18Speaker 1: he says... Just another game.
- 10:21Speaker 3: No big deal.
- 10:23Speaker 1: I'm returning home to Seattle. Those fans rooted for me
- 10:25Speaker 1: for four years. I loved my time there. I won
- 10:28Speaker 1: a championship. I won the Super Bowl MVP, but I'm
- 10:32Speaker 1: a chief now, and it doesn't matter where I play.
- 10:35Speaker 1: It's just another game. Do you believe him?
- 10:37Speaker 3: I think I do. I really think I do. I
- 10:39Speaker 3: don't think there's a ton of bad blood.
- 10:41Speaker 1: A lot of.
- 10:42Speaker 8: This is a whole thing on social media right now.
- 10:44Speaker 8: It's like the Seahawks didn't choose Kenneth Walker over Rashid.
- 10:48Speaker 8: Or they didn't choose Rashid Sheet over Kenneth Walker.
- 10:50Speaker 3: He didn't want to be here.
- 10:52Speaker 8: And, you know, you can, A, not want to be here,
- 10:55Speaker 8: but also not have any bad blood to where you
- 10:58Speaker 8: were before. You started your career there. They drafted you.
- 11:01Speaker 8: They basically turned you into what you thought you could
- 11:06Speaker 8: be by the end of your time there.
- 11:08Speaker 3: And now you're enjoying.
- 11:09Speaker 8: The benefits of– monetarial benefits, monetarily– with the big contract
- 11:14Speaker 8: you got from the Chiefs. And now you're the number
- 11:17Speaker 8: one guy, not having to split carries with Zach Charbonnet.
- 11:19Speaker 8: So I don't think he holds any bad blood towards
- 11:22Speaker 8: the Seahawks.
- 11:23Speaker 3: Not only that, I.
- 11:24Speaker 1: Don't think he's really prone to it. I mean, Ken Walker,
- 11:27Speaker 1: from the time we were introduced to him, we had
- 11:29Speaker 1: a Michigan State beat writer come on the air so
- 11:33Speaker 1: we could get to know him a little bit. And
- 11:34Speaker 1: he just couldn't stop raving about what a person he is,
- 11:38Speaker 1: what a nice young man he is. I don't know
- 11:40Speaker 1: if Ken Walker even builds up resentment. I think even
- 11:45Speaker 1: when he was frustrated that he wasn't getting carries, I
- 11:49Speaker 1: think that... I'm not sure that he was like angry
- 11:52Speaker 1: with the organization. And I certainly think that he was
- 11:56Speaker 1: liked in the locker room and he liked being part
- 11:58Speaker 1: of this football team. Even when John Schneider did his
- 12:01Speaker 1: famous red solo cup speech where he, you know, brought
- 12:04Speaker 1: Ken Walker's name up and Walker just kind of rolled
- 12:07Speaker 1: his eyes. It's a little awkward.
- 12:08Speaker 3: Didn't think it was funny and said, no, that's not true.
- 12:11Speaker 1: I've not talked to you at all about my contract.
- 12:13Speaker 1: And you know that I think it was just like
- 12:15Speaker 1: very practical about that. So, I'm kind of with you.
- 12:20Speaker 1: I think most people would. I think most people would be,
- 12:23Speaker 1: if nothing else, excited to come back. I think he's
- 12:26Speaker 1: going to get... A warm round of applause. No one
- 12:29Speaker 1: should boo him. That's for sure.
- 12:32Speaker 3: But you're right.
- 12:34Speaker 1: For anybody that's trying to label this some sort of
- 12:36Speaker 1: revenge game, I don't get that connection. I don't think
- 12:39Speaker 1: that Ken Walker should have any ill feelings, nor do
- 12:42Speaker 1: I think that he does have any ill feelings toward
- 12:44Speaker 1: the organization. They gave him four good years. They paid
- 12:48Speaker 1: him what they agreed to pay him. They put him
- 12:51Speaker 1: in a position to make a lot more money as
- 12:53Speaker 1: a free agent, and he went to a terrific situation
- 12:57Speaker 1: and got more money than he was originally scheduled to make.
- 13:02Speaker 1: He got overpaid in the market based on the market
- 13:05Speaker 1: value that people suggested that he had. So Ken Walker,
- 13:09Speaker 1: I think, is living a really good life. He's just
- 13:10Speaker 1: wearing a different uniform color now. right now. And as
- 13:13Speaker 1: far as the Seahawks, they certainly don't have anything to
- 13:16Speaker 1: be vengeful about. They're the ones that let him walk.
- 13:19Speaker 1: They're the ones that never really made him a priority.
- 13:21Speaker 1: They're the ones that didn't see him turning into as
- 13:25Speaker 1: special a running back as what he's shown so far
- 13:28Speaker 1: in a Kansas City uniform. They thought that potential was
- 13:31Speaker 1: there when they drafted him and they tried to nurture that.
- 13:34Speaker 1: And they were hoping to get that guy But it's
- 13:37Speaker 1: very obvious they didn't feel they had that guy. After
- 13:40Speaker 1: four years of evaluation, up close and personal, they made
- 13:44Speaker 1: the decision he's not that guy. And they are already
- 13:47Speaker 1: an organization prone to not paying running backs. So they
- 13:51Speaker 1: didn't even make him an offer. That doesn't cloud the
- 13:56Speaker 1: conversation of should they have.
- 13:59Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 14:00Speaker 3: They should have, yes.
- 14:02Speaker 1: That's still very much in play. Just because they didn't
- 14:05Speaker 1: make an offer doesn't suggest that we still shouldn't have
- 14:10Speaker 1: Ken Walker.
- 14:11Speaker 3: But it does speak to it was never really close.
- 14:17Speaker 3: He was leaving.
- 14:19Speaker 1: And as much as I liked him when he was here,
- 14:22Speaker 1: and as much as I thought that they could still
- 14:24Speaker 1: tap into that potential, which we finally got to see
- 14:27Speaker 1: in the playoffs... I wasn't surprised in the slightest that
- 14:30Speaker 1: the Seahawks had that organizational philosophy and had enough frustrations
- 14:36Speaker 1: with him over the years of not running where the
- 14:39Speaker 1: play was designed that they really let him go without
- 14:42Speaker 1: a fight. I wasn't surprised by it, and I don't
- 14:45Speaker 1: think that they're second-guessing themselves as much as everyone nationally
- 14:49Speaker 1: wants to make that statement. I don't think they're showing
- 14:52Speaker 1: up at the ball field. I think they're showing up
- 14:54Speaker 1: at the ball field on Sunday night saying, We still
- 14:58Speaker 1: believe we made the right decision. We still believe in
- 14:59Speaker 1: what we're doing. Let's let the process play out. Let's
- 15:02Speaker 1: see what we look like by year's end with Price
- 15:05Speaker 1: and Charbonnet together at a lower rate than we would
- 15:08Speaker 1: have had to pay Ken Walker. Now, I understand why
- 15:12Speaker 1: everybody else is like, no, that's dumb.
- 15:15Speaker 3: He's special. You should have seen it. You should have
- 15:18Speaker 3: gotten out ahead of this.
- 15:19Speaker 5: I'm one of those. Yeah.
- 15:21Speaker 1: And those people are looking mighty right right now. But
- 15:26Speaker 1: I don't think they feel that way. So I don't
- 15:28Speaker 1: think there's an ax to grind. I don't think there's
- 15:30Speaker 1: a grudge match here whatsoever. Ken Walker's returning to Seattle
- 15:34Speaker 1: with a championship ring on his finger. He's playing his
- 15:37Speaker 1: best football for the new team that he's on. And
- 15:39Speaker 1: he's going to try to rush for 250 yards against us,
- 15:43Speaker 1: whether we were the Seahawks or he was facing the
- 15:45Speaker 1: Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday night.
- 15:47Speaker 3: Or anybody else.
- 15:48Speaker 8: It's just two sides that Split apart. There doesn't have
- 15:52Speaker 8: to be anything more than that, right? They went their
- 15:53Speaker 8: separate ways, right? The Seahawks have just kind of stuck
- 15:56Speaker 8: with their thought process of, hey, we don't really feel
- 15:59Speaker 8: like paying running backs is the biggest value. You can
- 16:02Speaker 8: argue with that that's the right decision or not, but
- 16:03Speaker 8: that's just how they feel.
- 16:04Speaker 3: There's an argument there.
- 16:05Speaker 8: It's exactly how they feel. And Kenneth Walker is like, hey,
- 16:08Speaker 8: all right, that's the case. I'm going to go be
- 16:10Speaker 8: the number one guy on the Kansas City Chiefs and
- 16:12Speaker 8: get paid while doing it.
- 16:14Speaker 1: That's it.
- 16:14Speaker 3: I think that's really the extent of it. Worked out
- 16:16Speaker 3: really well for Ken Walker.
- 16:17Speaker 1: I think so, too. And if you're having this kind
- 16:19Speaker 1: of season and you're making that kind of money, there
- 16:22Speaker 1: is no reason to hold a grudge.
- 16:24Speaker 8: You won.
- 16:25Speaker 3: He won. You won in the process.
- 16:27Speaker 1: Now let's see if the Seahawks, with the stance they took,
- 16:32Speaker 1: if they can, with time, show that we made the
- 16:35Speaker 1: right decision. Had we have done that, we wouldn't have
- 16:37Speaker 1: been able to afford Murphy. Or, you know, who knows?
- 16:41Speaker 1: Who knows what they were thinking? But, you know, we'll
- 16:44Speaker 1: still take a little more time. We'll see if Ken Walker,
- 16:47Speaker 1: on a pace for 360 carries, can keep that pace up.
- 16:51Speaker 3: Maybe he can't.
- 16:52Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 16:53Speaker 3: We shall see.
- 16:55Speaker 1: But if he ends up staying on the pace to
- 16:57Speaker 1: rush for 2,300 yards?
- 16:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 16:58Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 17:00Speaker 3: That might have been a mistake. And 27 touchdowns?
- 17:03Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 17:03Speaker 3: No, John, that's one you're never going to live down.
- 17:06Speaker 3: Doesn't mean you're not great. And that's okay.
- 17:08Speaker 1: Doesn't mean you're not great.
- 17:09Speaker 7: Right.
- 17:10Speaker 3: Just means you got.
- 17:11Speaker 5: That one wrong.
- 17:11Speaker 1: That's all. That's what history's going to say. You just
- 17:14Speaker 1: got that one wrong. All right. Coming up next, Softie's

- 18:23Speaker 3: There we go. He looked it up on Google.
- 18:27Speaker 1: Rick Myrer.
- 18:28Speaker 5: Rick Myrer.
- 18:30Speaker 3: Rick Myrer.
- 18:32Speaker 5: Brett Favre. All right, who's yours?
- 18:34Speaker 1: Who's yours?
- 18:35Speaker 5: I'll go Glenn Foley. Remember Glenn Foley?
- 18:37Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
- 18:37Speaker 5: The old redhead from Boston College.
- 18:39Speaker 3: From the Eagles.
- 18:39Speaker 1: Yep.
- 18:40Speaker 5: Yeah, played for Dennis Erickson. I think Glenn Foley was
- 18:43Speaker 5: in the– not Glenn Foley from the Eagles, yeah. I
- 18:46Speaker 5: think Glenn Foley was in the– was he in the
- 18:50Speaker 5: helmet game, the Vinny Testaverde-Phil Luckett game? I think he was.
- 18:54Speaker 5: Remember that? We thought the helmet was a football.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Oh.
- 18:58Speaker 5: That game may have cost Dennis Erickson his job, by
- 19:00Speaker 5: the way.
- 19:01Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. Well, that was a
- 19:03Speaker 1: nice round of name a random Seahawk.
- 19:05Speaker 5: I like that. It's really fun to do.
- 19:06Speaker 3: We should do that more often.
- 19:07Speaker 5: I like the name game. You guys ever play the
- 19:09Speaker 5: name game?
- 19:10Speaker 1: We tried it on the air, you and I, once. Oh,
- 19:12Speaker 1: that's right. I have a feeling we're both pretty good
- 19:15Speaker 1: at it, but we failed that day.
- 19:16Speaker 3: We were terrible.
- 19:17Speaker 5: Yeah. So, Anders, the name game is I name a
- 19:19Speaker 5: player or anybody, okay? And then your job is to
- 19:22Speaker 5: name somebody else with the same first or last name.
- 19:25Speaker 5: Is that person.
- 19:26Speaker 3: Okay, so it's like a chain. Okay, I got you.
- 19:28Speaker 5: So I would say like Marcus Johnson, and you would say?
- 19:32Speaker 3: Dennis Johnson.
- 19:33Speaker 5: Good. Chuck would say?
- 19:34Speaker 3: And then I could go either Dennis or Johnson?
- 19:37Speaker 6: Correct.
- 19:37Speaker 1: Is that the idea behind it?
- 19:38Speaker 5: Correct.
- 19:39Speaker 3: Dennis Eckersley.
- 19:40Speaker 5: Okay, and then Chris would say? Wow.
- 19:43Speaker 1: Stump the kid.
- 19:44Speaker 5: See, he's done. He's out.
- 19:45Speaker 3: Dennis Erickson.
- 19:47Speaker 5: Dennis Erickson.
- 19:48Speaker 1: There you go. Dennis the menace. It's fun.
- 19:50Speaker 5: We're having fun.
- 19:51Speaker 1: It's called fun.
- 19:53Speaker 3: People recognize it.
- 19:54Speaker 5: This is what you do during a bye week, folks,
- 19:56Speaker 5: right here.
- 19:56Speaker 3: Very true.
- 19:57Speaker 5: All right.
- 19:58Speaker 1: I'll give you a name and you tell me if
- 20:01Speaker 1: it's going to be the starting quarterback for the Huskies
- 20:04Speaker 1: the next time they play. Damond Williams Jr.
- 20:08Speaker 5: Gus Williams. Oh, I thought we were playing the same game.
- 20:12Speaker 5: First of all, I'm very cranky about this because I
- 20:14Speaker 5: think it should be an obvious deal. I mean, the
- 20:17Speaker 5: guy went to Purdue. Not that Purdue's any good, right?
- 20:20Speaker 5: They got a horrible defense, all that, blah, blah, blah.
- 20:23Speaker 5: But did that offense not look at least competent against
- 20:26Speaker 5: Purdue last Friday night?
- 20:27Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
- 20:28Speaker 5: Look, it's like, I mean, Andrews, you'll figure this out
- 20:31Speaker 5: one day when your kid grows up and he's old
- 20:32Speaker 5: enough and you take your son for the first time.
- 20:35Speaker 5: To a baseball field and you say, hey, son, here's
- 20:37Speaker 5: how to hold a bat. And you show them how
- 20:38Speaker 5: to grip the bat and cross his fingers and all that.
- 20:41Speaker 5: They just needed to know that they could hold a bat, right?
- 20:44Speaker 5: That they were competent. That they weren't terrible offensively. That
- 20:48Speaker 5: they could function offensively. And they did that. They had
- 20:51Speaker 5: their best offensive game of the year. And before you say, well,
- 20:53Speaker 5: it was just Purdue. Hey, look, they played a terrible
- 20:55Speaker 5: defense in Washington State. But a terrible defense in Utah State.
- 21:01Speaker 5: And they absolutely looked awful offensively. In those games. So,
- 21:05Speaker 5: I mean, to me, it's obvious. Elijah Brown's the guy.
- 21:08Speaker 5: He's absolutely the guy in this game against Nebraska.
- 21:13Speaker 1: So, if Jed names DeMond, what's the Honks pregame show
- 21:17Speaker 1: sound like next week?
- 21:20Speaker 5: Okay, hang on just a second. I'm losing you. I
- 21:22Speaker 5: got a problem here, technically. I'm not even sure if
- 21:24Speaker 5: you guys can hear me or not. We can hear you.
- 21:25Speaker 5: Hang on, just give me a minute. We got you.
- 21:27Speaker 1: We got you. Don't cuss. Whatever you do, don't cuss
- 21:30Speaker 1: while you're not sure you're on the air. Just don't
- 21:32Speaker 1: do that.
- 21:32Speaker 5: Am I on the air?
- 21:33Speaker 3: Yeah, we can hear you.
- 21:35Speaker 5: I can hear you. Could you hear me the entire time?
- 21:37Speaker 1: Yes.
- 21:37Speaker 5: I could, yes.
- 21:38Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 21:39Speaker 5: Well, as long as you could. Who cares if Anders could?
- 21:41Speaker 7: Right.
- 21:41Speaker 3: And I'm pretty sure you farted.
- 21:43Speaker 5: I don't know. Hey, I just woke up like 20
- 21:47Speaker 5: minutes ago, man. I'm not worried about a fart.
- 21:50Speaker 1: All right, so the question was, so what's the Honks
- 21:55Speaker 1: pregame show sound like if next week Jed names DeMond
- 21:59Speaker 1: his starting quarterback?
- 22:00Speaker 5: I think people are irritated. I think they're cranky, again,
- 22:03Speaker 5: and I don't think he'll do that. I got a
- 22:05Speaker 5: sense that Jed might just wait until game time to
- 22:08Speaker 5: name a starter, which I think is a smart idea.
- 22:11Speaker 5: I mean, you've got two totally different quarterbacks, right? Why
- 22:14Speaker 5: give Nebraska anything and make them get ready for both teams?
- 22:17Speaker 5: As much as we talked about Purdue being terrible defensively,
- 22:21Speaker 5: this is a completely different animal with Nebraska. You know
- 22:23Speaker 5: they're 11th in the country in total defense, 16th in scoring,
- 22:28Speaker 5: 23rd against the run, 21st in sacks. They're number one
- 22:31Speaker 5: on third down percentage. They're 19% on defense, guys, on
- 22:35Speaker 5: third down. I think they need to give themselves every
- 22:38Speaker 5: damn advantage they have, but More importantly, if they do
- 22:42Speaker 5: name DeMond Williams a starter, what's Twitter going to look like? Yeah, yeah.
- 22:48Speaker 5: What's the fan reaction going to be? I think people
- 22:51Speaker 5: are going to have a meltdown before they, get them
- 22:53Speaker 5: out of here, fire everybody, if they do something like that, right?
- 22:57Speaker 1: What now, at this stage, is a successful season in
- 23:02Speaker 1: your eyes? What would they have to do?
- 23:04Speaker 5: Win out? Win out, or maybe go 4-1 in the
- 23:07Speaker 5: next five games and find a way to get to
- 23:09Speaker 5: eight wins. I mean, look, Michigan State is terrible. Penn
- 23:13Speaker 5: State's not good. Can you go 2-1 against Nebraska, Indiana, Oregon?
- 23:19Speaker 5: That sounds like a lot. I understand that right now
- 23:22Speaker 5: to bite off with those teams. But if they find
- 23:25Speaker 5: a way to go 4-1 in the final five games
- 23:27Speaker 5: and end the regular season with a win against Oregon
- 23:30Speaker 5: in Eugene, I think people start to feel kind of
- 23:33Speaker 5: good because then you start to be convinced that, all right,
- 23:35Speaker 5: there's not going to be a lot of transfers. Derek Coleman, Broussard, Ramzak, Fruin,
- 23:40Speaker 5: you know, Jerron Jones, players like that will all come
- 23:43Speaker 5: back next year. Maybe Elijah Brown, just starting quarterback. He's
- 23:47Speaker 5: got two years left if he wants it. So I
- 23:49Speaker 5: think if you can find a way to go four
- 23:51Speaker 5: and one on the final five games, then maybe you'll
- 23:53Speaker 5: get some momentum. They just need to steal a line
- 23:55Speaker 5: from our buddy. They just need some good vibes, man. Right.
- 23:59Speaker 5: They need good vibes on this team. And the vibes
- 24:01Speaker 5: were so bad yesterday. around the city before that game
- 24:07Speaker 5: with Purdue. I'm not saying they were bad in the
- 24:09Speaker 5: locker room, but I know what they looked like on
- 24:11Speaker 5: social media. And they got some good vibes going now.
- 24:15Speaker 5: Good time for a bye. Ride this wave for a
- 24:17Speaker 5: little bit. Okay, there's a little temporary hiatus from the
- 24:21Speaker 5: bad vibes out there. So I think that's what they
- 24:23Speaker 5: got to do for sure.
- 24:24Speaker 3: Have you done the Lincoln trip?
- 24:25Speaker 1: Have you experienced the long day at Lincoln where the
- 24:29Speaker 1: whole city shuts down?
- 24:30Speaker 5: I was there in 1998. We got beat 55-7. Oh, geez.
- 24:35Speaker 5: And that's the story about Dick Baird was coaching linebackers
- 24:38Speaker 5: that day, and Washington's down 48-0 or whatever the hell
- 24:43Speaker 5: it was, and they get a stop in the fourth quarter,
- 24:46Speaker 5: and Baird tells a story about the defense coming back
- 24:50Speaker 5: to the sideline, and Dick's like, yeah, we got a stop,
- 24:52Speaker 5: all right, yeah, way to go, guys, yeah. And Jim
- 24:55Speaker 5: Lambright looks at him and says, Dick, it's 45 to 7.
- 24:58Speaker 5: Shut the hell up. He's told that story on the
- 25:03Speaker 5: air before.
- 25:03Speaker 3: Oh, that's so good.
- 25:04Speaker 5: Staring him down. Like, what are you doing, man? We're
- 25:06Speaker 5: down by 40. Stop being so freaking positive, you annoying bastard. So, yeah,
- 25:13Speaker 5: that was the last time I was there. Have you
- 25:14Speaker 5: been to Lincoln, by the way? Never.
- 25:16Speaker 1: Never.
- 25:17Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 25:17Speaker 5: Well, we went to a steak. Our buddy Kevin Kugler
- 25:21Speaker 5: recommended a steakhouse out there called Misty's Steakhouse. And when
- 25:24Speaker 5: I think Nebraska, I think steaks, right? I think some
- 25:27Speaker 5: of the best grass-fed beef in the country. Go to Misty's, terrible. Terrible.
- 25:33Speaker 5: I mean, you could have convinced me I was eating
- 25:36Speaker 5: at the Sizzler. That's how bad it was.
- 25:39Speaker 1: My guess is because they overcook all their steaks. Midwest
- 25:42Speaker 1: people don't like it anywhere but fully cooked.
- 25:45Speaker 5: Oh, is that what it is?
- 25:46Speaker 1: It might have been. It might have been. They might
- 25:47Speaker 1: not know how to prepare a steak that you would enjoy,
- 25:49Speaker 1: like normal.
- 25:50Speaker 5: People would enjoy. If I said medium rare, they'd look
- 25:51Speaker 5: at me like I was an alien.
- 25:52Speaker 7: Right.
- 25:52Speaker 3: Yeah, they might call the cops.
- 25:54Speaker 5: Okay. Well, maybe that was it, but I was not impressed.
- 25:58Speaker 5: I was not impressed. And right now, believe it or not,
- 26:00Speaker 5: we have a reservation on Friday night for Indian food
- 26:03Speaker 5: in Lincoln.
- 26:04Speaker 3: Wow, that doesn't add up.
- 26:06Speaker 5: Got a guy at Purdue who told me it's the
- 26:08Speaker 5: best Indian food place called The Oven that he's ever
- 26:11Speaker 5: had in his life. Whoa. Problem is, if I eat
- 26:14Speaker 5: Indian food at my age and then try to work
- 26:16Speaker 5: the sideline the next day, bad idea. Where's Softie? Anybody
- 26:22Speaker 5: check the port-a-potty? Did I tell you the story about
- 26:24Speaker 5: me almost locking myself in a port-a-potty at USC?
- 26:27Speaker 1: Yes, we did hear that. I can't wait to see
- 26:30Speaker 1: you do the curry hurry off the sidelines.
- 26:33Speaker 5: The fast walk?
- 26:34Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 26:35Speaker 5: Fast walk to the locker room? Where the hell's it going?
- 26:38Speaker 5: He's got to poo. Too much curry last night. Hey,
- 26:45Speaker 5: by the way, you guys know one thing Nebraska does very,
- 26:47Speaker 5: very well. I just mentioned those stats on defense. You
- 26:50Speaker 5: realize that they piss away more fourth quarter leads than
- 26:53Speaker 5: anybody in college football?
- 26:55Speaker 1: No, I did not know that.
- 26:56Speaker 5: Since the start of the 2018 season, they've blown 18
- 26:59Speaker 5: fourth quarter leads. Whoa! Which is number one. I think
- 27:02Speaker 5: eight of them under Matt Rule since he's been the
- 27:04Speaker 5: head coach. Two of them this year with Indiana and Oregon.
- 27:08Speaker 5: You know who's tied for second, by the way, in
- 27:10Speaker 5: blowing away leads in the fourth quarter?
- 27:11Speaker 7: USC.
- 27:12Speaker 5: Nope.
- 27:13Speaker 1: UW. Nope.
- 27:15Speaker 5: Guess again. Oregon.
- 27:16Speaker 7: Nope.
- 27:17Speaker 5: Chris Kidd. Come on. Jump in here. Wazoo. There you go.
- 27:20Speaker 1: You're such an ass.
- 27:23Speaker 7: Why?
- 27:23Speaker 5: There's a term for that, by the way.
- 27:24Speaker 1: I should have known.
- 27:25Speaker 5: Andrews, what do we call that?
- 27:27Speaker 3: It's called Coogan it.
- 27:29Speaker 5: Anderson.
- 27:29Speaker 3: Don't play along with him.
- 27:31Speaker 1: Oh, my gosh.
- 27:31Speaker 3: There's statistical evidence.
- 27:33Speaker 1: I mean, it's true, though.
- 27:33Speaker 5: Did he just call you Anderson?
- 27:35Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 27:35Speaker 3: That's my name.
- 27:36Speaker 1: That's his name.
- 27:37Speaker 5: Do you use dad?
- 27:38Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 27:39Speaker 5: Anderson.
- 27:41Speaker 3: Christopher's name is Christopher.

- 29:21Speaker 1: Chris calls him, Anderson. That seems more formal.
- 29:25Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 29:26Speaker 1: Anderson, would you mind picking a winner for us and
- 29:30Speaker 1: the audience?
- 29:31Speaker 3: I mean, I've done it once already this week, so
- 29:33Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 29:33Speaker 1: Or you can go to bed without supper. Your choice.
- 29:37Speaker 8: Uh i'll do i'll do a pick okay let's do
- 29:39Speaker 8: that um all right i'll say the pick first because
- 29:42Speaker 8: we're a little late new england plus three at chicago
- 29:45Speaker 8: tonight on thursday night football so if any of you
- 29:49Speaker 8: guys know me i'm very much like our previous guest
- 29:52Speaker 8: right there i do i have a Very bad ADD.
- 29:56Speaker 8: I like instant gratification. I don't like to wait for things.
- 29:59Speaker 8: Zero patience. So I'm taking the Thursday night game. And
- 30:02Speaker 8: I think Chicago, everyone's just already jumping right back on
- 30:06Speaker 8: the wagon, right back on the wagon with Caleb Williams back.
- 30:11Speaker 8: I think they're a good team. I don't think they're
- 30:13Speaker 8: upper echelon in the NFC team. New England has looked
- 30:17Speaker 8: really good since Drake May has figured his stuff out.
- 30:20Speaker 8: That is still an elite defense. And like I said,
- 30:23Speaker 8: Drake May looks like a Much different player than what
- 30:26Speaker 8: we saw in week one here in Seattle. So I
- 30:29Speaker 8: like New England getting the points here. Plus three at Chicago.
- 30:33Speaker 8: They need to win this game anyway. And let's have
- 30:36Speaker 8: another NFC team lose for the Seahawks because I think
- 30:38Speaker 8: we're thinking wild card at this point.
- 30:39Speaker 3: So let's go. Let's go. New England plus three.
- 30:42Speaker 7: All right.
- 30:42Speaker 3: That is the pick. Patriots.
- 30:45Speaker 1: That means the Bears would have to win by four points. Actually,
- 30:49Speaker 1: three points or more. Three points or more.
- 30:51Speaker 5: In order for.
- 30:52Speaker 3: Yeah, because technically a push is a fiction.
- 30:54Speaker 1: Yes.
- 30:54Speaker 3: For those who don't know. So Bears win by three
- 30:57Speaker 3: points or more, and Anders is wrong.
- 31:00Speaker 5: Okay?
- 31:00Speaker 1: So if you agree with the selection, you're going to
- 31:02Speaker 1: text FACT to 49451. If you disagree with a pick,

- 31:34Speaker 8: By the way, I'm having a couple of texters saying,
- 31:36Speaker 8: didn't someone already pick this game already? Someone picked the
- 31:38Speaker 8: other side of it, actually. Jessamyn picked the Bears on Tuesday.
- 31:43Speaker 8: So I'm taking the other side. So you can choose
- 31:46Speaker 8: what you want to do as a texter. If you've
- 31:47Speaker 8: already picked Factor Fiction for that one, you can hedge
- 31:50Speaker 8: and guarantee yourself one and one.
- 31:52Speaker 1: Or.
- 31:54Speaker 8: You can try and go all or nothing, get two
- 31:56Speaker 8: wins out of this one. All right, too late to
- 31:57Speaker 8: change it now.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Yeah, of course. Anders has gone with the New England Patriots,
- 32:01Speaker 1: getting three points in Chicago against the Bears tonight on
- 32:05Speaker 1: Thursday Night Football.

- 32:17Speaker 1: next on our radio program. Halloween is in nine days, and...
- 32:24Speaker 1: I'm just curious, what was the equivalent in my day
- 32:30Speaker 1: of the king-size candy bar? Sports Radio 93.3 KJR FM.
- 32:55Speaker 10: There he goes.
- 32:56Speaker 1: There he goes with his clever, like, rock of Halloween music.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Spooky mix. A little rock-a-ween for you. I like it.
- 33:04Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 33:04Speaker 5: A little jazz-a-ween. Jazz-a-ween.
- 33:11Speaker 1: It's Chuck, it's Anderson, it's Christopher Kidd. Coming up at
- 33:14Speaker 1: the top of the hour, 12th Man Roundtable, Hugh Mill
- 33:17Speaker 1: and Greg Bell. I have a feeling we're going to
- 33:19Speaker 1: talk about Ken Walker, but we will talk about the
- 33:21Speaker 1: entire matchup of the Seahawks versus Chiefs for one entire
- 33:24Speaker 1: hour coming.
- 33:25Speaker 3: Up at 8 o'clock. We are nine days.
- 33:28Speaker 1: Away from Rock-A-Ween or Jazz-A-Ween or Blues-A-Ween, whatever it is.
- 33:34Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
- 33:35Speaker 1: I don't know. But, you know, I always hear this.
- 33:39Speaker 1: I even heard this, I think, in a promo recently,
- 33:42Speaker 1: like Ian talking about the big size candy bar like.
- 33:45Speaker 1: You go to that house because they give away the
- 33:47Speaker 1: big size candy bars. Is that the monetary value? Is
- 33:52Speaker 1: that what everybody grew up with? I'm only saying that
- 33:55Speaker 1: because I grew up a bumpkin and I grew up
- 33:57Speaker 1: a poor. So we just stayed in our little neighborhood.
- 34:01Speaker 1: And I don't know if there was, that wasn't really
- 34:05Speaker 1: the goal when I went trick-or-treating. It wasn't to get
- 34:08Speaker 1: the big size candy bar where we wanted to go.
- 34:11Speaker 3: Was Mrs.
- 34:12Speaker 1: Leonard's house and her one-eyed blue dog, who we were
- 34:15Speaker 1: all scared of. But you braved the one-eyed blue dog,
- 34:19Speaker 1: who was perfectly tame and lovely, as it turns out.
- 34:22Speaker 1: Just had one eye.
- 34:23Speaker 3: Yeah, well, just kids are scared of one-eyed blue dogs,
- 34:25Speaker 3: I guess.
- 34:26Speaker 1: Or at least I was.
- 34:28Speaker 3: And then Mr.
- 34:28Speaker 1: Leonard was one of the more gruff guys in the
- 34:31Speaker 1: neighborhood that you'll ever want to meet. Uh, but, uh,
- 34:34Speaker 1: once you got to the door, Mrs. Leonard made like
- 34:36Speaker 1: homemade popcorn balls. Oh, homemade popcorn balls. And I don't know,
- 34:42Speaker 1: maybe they weren't any good, but to me it was like,
- 34:45Speaker 1: oh man, it was like eating an apple off the
- 34:46Speaker 1: garden of Eden. It was just like delicious. It was,
- 34:50Speaker 1: it was, and that's what the goal, he saved it
- 34:53Speaker 1: to the end of the night.
- 34:55Speaker 5: Interesting.
- 34:55Speaker 1: It was the last place that we went because it
- 34:57Speaker 1: was the crescendo of the evening. But I guess like
- 35:00Speaker 1: your age, uh, They frowned upon eating homemade desserts from
- 35:07Speaker 1: houses across the neighborhoods.
- 35:09Speaker 8: Yeah, because they're so inconsistent. I mean, some of them
- 35:11Speaker 8: would obviously be really good. But when you're trick-or-treating, you
- 35:14Speaker 8: want candy. And you want to compare your candy to
- 35:17Speaker 8: what other people got. It's currency.
- 35:19Speaker 5: Yeah, exactly.
- 35:19Speaker 3: It's Halloween currency.
- 35:20Speaker 8: Yeah, you dump it out at the end. Like, okay,
- 35:21Speaker 8: I'll trade you this for this. All this stuff. It's
- 35:24Speaker 8: all part of the plan. All part of the plan, honestly.
- 35:28Speaker 8: My personal looking forward to for Halloween is there was
- 35:33Speaker 8: one house that would always do a basically a skit
- 35:37Speaker 8: for everyone that walked in. It was like horror skits,
- 35:39Speaker 8: like full on, like try and scare you a bunch
- 35:42Speaker 8: of screaming. Like it's a little mini haunted house basically.
- 35:46Speaker 8: Cause they had like a little garage you could walk
- 35:48Speaker 8: up and they would always do these like, uh, chopping
- 35:51Speaker 8: a guy in half or like this Frankenstein skit or
- 35:54Speaker 8: something like that.
- 35:54Speaker 3: It was really cool.
- 35:55Speaker 8: That was always the most like fun thing that everyone
- 35:57Speaker 8: was always looking forward to.
- 35:58Speaker 5: Look at that.
- 35:59Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 36:00Speaker 3: Really get in the Halloween spirit. Do a lot of
- 36:02Speaker 3: people do that?
- 36:03Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 36:03Speaker 1: Is there just one in your neighborhood and you got that?
- 36:05Speaker 3: There was just one in my neighborhood. Yeah, that was
- 36:07Speaker 3: just the only one.
- 36:07Speaker 1: Maybe not everybody had great popcorn bowls.
- 36:09Speaker 3: Maybe not. Maybe Mrs.
- 36:11Speaker 1: Leonard isn't sitting in every neighborhood.
- 36:14Speaker 5: Maybe not.
- 36:15Speaker 3: That was the joy of my childhood. I mean, they
- 36:17Speaker 3: probably were elite if you kept going back to them. Yeah. Interesting.
- 36:22Speaker 3: Very interesting.
- 36:23Speaker 1: What about you, kid? Did you have somebody in the
- 36:26Speaker 1: neighborhood whose house was special and for whatever reason? Man,
- 36:30Speaker 1: it was so long ago. It's not that long ago.
- 36:33Speaker 10: For me, it felt like eons because I did it
- 36:36Speaker 10: a lot as a child, but my dad and mom
- 36:38Speaker 10: would just take us out, and we would just go trick-or-treating.
- 36:40Speaker 10: Then as I got older, I would go. Would you
- 36:42Speaker 10: go to the same neighborhood? We would stay in our neighborhood.
- 36:44Speaker 10: We would just go up the street.
- 36:47Speaker 5: In a car?
- 36:47Speaker 3: What's up?
- 36:49Speaker 5: In a car? No, we'd be walking.
- 36:50Speaker 1: We'd be out getting steps, baby. I didn't have an
- 36:53Speaker 1: Apple Watch, but I was out there.
- 36:54Speaker 7: Car?
- 36:54Speaker 3: What are we doing here? I didn't know.
- 36:56Speaker 5: Rain, snow, we out there in the cold, Chuck.
- 36:59Speaker 7: Look.
- 36:59Speaker 1: Here's the truth of the matter. I'm living out in
- 37:02Speaker 1: the country and there was probably a much greater chance
- 37:06Speaker 1: I was going to get chopped up by some sort
- 37:08Speaker 1: of psychopath demon.
- 37:10Speaker 3: And not just a skit, like real life.
- 37:12Speaker 7: Right, right.
- 37:14Speaker 1: But for some reason in the country, in the, you know,
- 37:17Speaker 1: in the late seventies, early eighties, mom was just like,
- 37:21Speaker 1: so glad to get her six children out.
- 37:23Speaker 3: Of the door for a night.
- 37:24Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 37:25Speaker 1: Like you take them, Bob, my dad. Uh, you take them,
- 37:30Speaker 1: leave me alone. No, she would deal with the trick
- 37:32Speaker 1: or treaters at home. But sometimes, I mean, once my
- 37:35Speaker 1: brothers got to the age of like 13, like he
- 37:38Speaker 1: was in charge. So we would six kids traipsing around
- 37:41Speaker 1: the neighborhood at night where it's probably far more dangerous,
- 37:44Speaker 1: but it seems like city kids are a little more worried.
- 37:46Speaker 1: City parents are a little more worried that you're going
- 37:48Speaker 1: to get nabbed or. have a razor blade in your
- 37:51Speaker 1: popcorn bowl. That's insane.
- 37:55Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. Fentanyl on your Reese's. It's probably
- 37:59Speaker 3: different now. You know what I'm saying?
- 38:00Speaker 8: It's probably different now than when I was a kid,
- 38:02Speaker 8: because I was a kid during the 2000s, right?
- 38:05Speaker 3: So that was like... That'd be more of the egg slacks,
- 38:08Speaker 3: you know, slip little egg slacks in someone's life.
- 38:10Speaker 1: That's funny. That's funny-er.
- 38:12Speaker 3: I'll say that's funny-er.
- 38:13Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that's funny.
- 38:15Speaker 3: But at least it's not like, you know.
- 38:16Speaker 1: Trying to kill you.
- 38:17Speaker 5: Dangerous. Right, exactly.
- 38:18Speaker 1: Just give you a little gas.
- 38:19Speaker 3: Replace your fun dip with LSD.
- 38:21Speaker 1: At least it's not like something like that.
- 38:23Speaker 3: LSD is insane.
- 38:24Speaker 1: Fun dip?
- 38:26Speaker 5: Hell.
- 38:27Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true.
- 38:28Speaker 3: What candy bar did.
- 38:29Speaker 5: You always want?
- 38:30Speaker 1: But you felt safe, so you walked around your neighborhoods. Yeah.
- 38:33Speaker 3: Walked around with a Dallas Cowboy. Shout out to my dad.
- 38:36Speaker 1: Because look, I've heard that a lot of these parents
- 38:38Speaker 1: today that are so worried about their kids getting nabbed,
- 38:41Speaker 1: and I understand why you are. There's a lot of
- 38:43Speaker 1: information out there, and you don't want to be the
- 38:44Speaker 1: parent that let their kid get nabbed on Halloween because
- 38:47Speaker 1: you weren't guarding them closely enough. But they'll just stay
- 38:51Speaker 1: to their, not just their neighborhood, but they'll like, come
- 38:54Speaker 1: together as friends yeah as a trunk or treat thing
- 38:57Speaker 1: where you know everyone involved and you know you know
- 39:00Speaker 1: you've done your screenings over the years yeah nothing's going
- 39:04Speaker 1: to happen so i didn't know i didn't know how
- 39:06Speaker 1: far that you took it as a kid because we
- 39:09Speaker 1: were just like you go ahead and go hey by
- 39:12Speaker 1: the way uh mr blow to vogel is maybe a
- 39:16Speaker 1: serial killer so you be careful around there He may
- 39:19Speaker 1: want to walk around his yard. Yeah, probably a good idea. Yeah,
- 39:22Speaker 1: he doesn't like people on his yard, but we're suspicious.
- 39:25Speaker 5: Mr.
- 39:25Speaker 1: Bloat of Ogle.
- 39:26Speaker 3: Yeah, he had a son who was a Satan worshiper.
- 39:29Speaker 1: Oh, God.
- 39:29Speaker 3: Is this a real story? Yeah.
- 39:30Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Yeah.
- 39:32Speaker 3: He wasn't a serial killer.
- 39:33Speaker 8: Okay, yeah, but he had a son who was a
- 39:35Speaker 8: Satan worshiper.
- 39:35Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
- 39:36Speaker 1: Oh, for sure.
- 39:37Speaker 3: And then a reborn Christian in high school.
- 39:39Speaker 7: Nice.
- 39:39Speaker 3: Yeah, because that's a natural transition. That is a natural transition.
- 39:42Speaker 3: That's a very natural transition.
- 39:44Speaker 1: And then his younger brother, David, was my age, and
- 39:47Speaker 1: he would come over to my house, and while he
- 39:48Speaker 1: was talking to me, He would sit on his four-wheeler,
- 39:51Speaker 1: and in between conversations while I was talking, he would
- 39:55Speaker 1: just open up his gas tank and smell it.
- 39:57Speaker 3: He would huff right in front of me. I'm like,
- 39:59Speaker 3: what are you doing?
- 40:00Speaker 1: It smells good, man.
- 40:02Speaker 5: Okay.
- 40:02Speaker 3: Middle America, baby.
- 40:06Speaker 1: Point on point, what I'm pointing out is that that's
- 40:09Speaker 1: the neighborhood I grew up in, but my parents were
- 40:11Speaker 1: just like, go take your chances. Yeah.
- 40:14Speaker 5: Grow up.
- 40:14Speaker 1: If only five of you come back, I still have
- 40:16Speaker 1: more children than most people.
- 40:18Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 40:20Speaker 1: If one of you comes back limbless, hey, I got
- 40:23Speaker 1: a medicine kit.
- 40:24Speaker 3: There was very little.
- 40:26Speaker 1: Concern for our safety back in the day. And the
- 40:29Speaker 1: currency was Mrs. Leonard's popcorn bowl.
- 40:31Speaker 3: There you go. That was the main currency. That was gold.
- 40:34Speaker 3: That was liquid gold.
- 40:35Speaker 8: There probably was at least some thought of like, all right,
- 40:38Speaker 8: we should walk around with our kids depending on how
- 40:40Speaker 8: old they are. But I think it's definitely grown in
- 40:42Speaker 8: the last probably five or six years for sure.
- 40:45Speaker 1: I didn't know.
- 40:45Speaker 3: I'm just trying to get to know.
- 40:47Speaker 5: Of course.
- 40:47Speaker 3: Trying to get to know your age group. All right,
- 40:50Speaker 3: 12th Man Roundtable comes next.
