Speaker 2: As a couple of days ago, we lost George went
2:19
Speaker 2: who was a Chicago staple from the TV show Cheers.

Speaker 2: He played Norm Peterson, but he was Chicago through and through.
2:30
Speaker 2: Everybody remembers him from SNL with the skit I'll talk
2:33
Speaker 2: about that in a second George Robert When Junior was
2:36
Speaker 2: born October seventeenth, nineteen forty eight, and was an American actor.
2:41
Speaker 2: Went portrayed Norm Peterson on the NBC sitcom Cheers from
2:46
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty two to nineteen ninety three, which earned him
2:49
Speaker 2: six consecutive nominations for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding

Speaker 2: Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series. After Cheers ended, he
2:57
Speaker 2: started his own short lived CBS sitcom called The George

3:21
Speaker 2: met at Second City, and they were married from nineteen
3:25
Speaker 2: seventy eight until he died in twenty twenty five. They
3:27
Speaker 2: had three children together, and his nephew I didn't know
3:31
Speaker 2: this as Jason Sedakis. I never knew that one also
3:35
Speaker 2: appeared in the comedy films such as Airplane Too, the sequel,
3:38

Speaker 2: dramas such as Somewhere in Time, Dreamscape, Guilty by Suspicion,
3:52
Speaker 2: Forever Young, Lake Beat, and The Climb. On television, he

4:14
Speaker 2: The Simpsons, Family Guy, and Portlandia. On stage, he also
4:18
Speaker 2: appeared on Broadway playing Edna Turnblad in the musical comedy
4:23
Speaker 2: Hair Spray. Let's look a little bit at his SNL
4:27
Speaker 2: because everybody remembers him from SNL as one of the
4:31
Speaker 2: Chicago Bear guys, which is hilarious. I think everybody loved
4:35
Speaker 2: him in that character. To me, that was one of
4:38
Speaker 2: my favorite characters of all time. Yeah, he was a
4:44
Speaker 2: funny guy. I mean everybody knew that. He also appeared
4:47
Speaker 2: in the nineteen eighty film My Bodyguard and also had
4:50
Speaker 2: small TV series on Taxi Soap and Mash. In nineteen
4:55
Speaker 2: eighty two, his breakthrough, of course, was with Cheers. Everybody
4:59
Speaker 2: knows that he was on that for the eleven seasons.
5:02
Speaker 2: I'm looking for his role in SNL. Everybody knows well.
5:06
Speaker 2: He had multiple roles on SNL. He played Bob Swarsky,
5:13
Speaker 2: the Chicago Bear guy. And it's actually funny because there's
5:17
Speaker 2: a guy on there's a guy that is on TikTok
5:28
Speaker 2: and he plays the nephew. He's not really the nephew
5:32
Speaker 2: of that character, obviously, and that's he sings in the
5:36
Speaker 2: same type of voice he does the Bears thing. He's
5:39
Speaker 2: a Bears fantas from Chicago. He's been at the WGN
5:41
Speaker 2: News if you ever watched that. But yeah, he's funny.
5:46
Speaker 2: When's first appearance on SNL was in season eleven episode
5:50
Speaker 2: where he shared hosting duties with director Francis for Coppola.
5:54
Speaker 2: In nineteen eighty eight, he played the part of Witten
5:58
Speaker 2: in the New Zealand made film Never Say. In the
6:01
Speaker 2: early nineties, when made a cameo appearance on several episodes
6:04
Speaker 2: of SNL as Bob Swarsky, one of the Chicago superfans,
6:09
Speaker 2: along with cast members Chris Farley, Mike Meyers, Robert Smigel,
6:12
Speaker 2: and one time host Joe Montagna. So yeah, everybody knows
6:16
Speaker 2: him really for that. I mean, everybody knows him for
6:19
Speaker 2: a lot of things, but that one and his of
6:23
Speaker 2: course cheers norm Peterson. Everybody knows those two as his
6:27
Speaker 2: main roles that he was ever in. Those were the
6:29
Speaker 2: ones that made him really famous. So he does have
6:32
Speaker 2: a few kids his wife, they have three. It's amazing
6:36
Speaker 2: that they were married as long as they were because
6:38
Speaker 2: from nineteen seventy eight to twenty twenty five, especially being
6:42
Speaker 2: an actor in Hollywood, that's not easy to do. But
6:44
Speaker 2: she was an actor too, I guess I looked it up.
6:47
Speaker 2: She was an actor in some pretty big stuff too.
6:50
Speaker 2: Let's see what was she in.
6:56
Speaker 6: There was something angain trying to see what she was,
7:08
Speaker 6: and she was in a few things.
7:10
Speaker 2: But she was from Chicago too, so and they met
7:13
Speaker 2: at Second City. Yeah, it doesn't really say, Oh, she
7:19
Speaker 2: was on Heartbreakers, Mister Mom and Saint Elmo's Fire. So
7:23
Speaker 2: she was in some pretty cool stuff too back in
7:26
Speaker 2: the nineties. So yeah, George went very, very sad. He
7:31
Speaker 2: was born May or October seventeen, nineteen forty eight, passed
7:35
Speaker 2: away May twenty, at twenty twenty five, at seventy six
7:38

Speaker 2: have birthdays this weekend, and of course happy birthday to
10:11
Speaker 2: all of you out there. Got a pretty good show
10:13
Speaker 2: for you today. Not a ton though, because I mean really,
10:18
Speaker 2: this is kind of the lull of the season right now.
10:21
Speaker 2: OTAs are going on, of course for the NFL players
10:25
Speaker 2: and everything, so that's going on right now, but I mean, really,
10:29
Speaker 2: it's pretty quiet in the NFL. There's no major signings
10:32
Speaker 2: this week. I didn't see any major major trades. I
10:35
Speaker 2: know the Chicago Bears or signed Joe Tooney to an
10:41
Speaker 2: extra two years on his contract, which is good. He
10:44
Speaker 2: aligns now with Caleb Williams, because if you want to
10:47
Speaker 2: build these players together, then then you have to align
10:53
Speaker 2: their contracts as much as you can so that you
10:56
Speaker 2: know that they're locked in for around the same amount
10:58
Speaker 2: of years. You want to do that, but then you
11:01
Speaker 2: go from there. But yeah, nothing major going on in
11:05
Speaker 2: the NFL right now. Kind of crazy, which you know,
11:08
Speaker 2: that's always a good thing. The news, the news coming
11:13
Speaker 2: out though from last week. I think, did we talk
11:16
Speaker 2: about it last week? If not, I'll talk about it
11:18
Speaker 2: really quick now. The Caleb william news from the book
11:22
Speaker 2: that thy Oh yeah, we did talk about that last week,
11:24
Speaker 2: the book that was coming out with Caleb Williams. And
11:26
Speaker 2: it's not about Caleb, it's about NFL quarterbacks around the league.
11:31
Speaker 2: And yeah, it's a non issue. In fact, Caleb during
11:36
Speaker 2: OTA's didn't even want to talk to the media because
11:38
Speaker 2: and I don't blame the kid. You know what, Caleb,
11:41
Speaker 2: you don't need to talk to the media about this.
11:43
Speaker 2: This was a moot point. This was before the NFL
11:48
Speaker 2: Draft last year. It's not even a point that you
11:51
Speaker 2: need to make. Like I keep seeing it in the media,
11:55
Speaker 2: like they're talking about it. It's like it's a non
11:57
Speaker 2: talking point. We already knew he didn't want to play
12:00
Speaker 2: here originally. Originally they already said that he didn't want
12:03
Speaker 2: to be here. That has nothing to do with anything
12:09
Speaker 2: he changed his mind. He came here before the draft.
12:13
Speaker 2: When they do the pre draft interviews and everything with
12:15
Speaker 2: the players at the home of the facility where you
12:19
Speaker 2: know they might be drafted, and he talked to the coaches,
12:23
Speaker 2: he talked to the owners, he talked to poles, and
12:27
Speaker 2: he loved it here. You know, he fell in love
12:30
Speaker 2: with Chicago, he fell in love with the team, and
12:33
Speaker 2: he wanted to play here. It's a point to say, oh, well,
12:37
Speaker 2: Caleb don't want to be a Bear. He wants to
12:39
Speaker 2: be a Bear. He loves being a bear. The dude
12:41
Speaker 2: made the bear claw, okay, like honestly, like he's got
12:44
Speaker 2: the hand signal for the bear claw. Nobody ever did
12:48
Speaker 2: the bear claw like that. So I mean, he definitely
12:50
Speaker 2: wants to be here. I can't wait for the season
12:54
Speaker 2: to start now. Like, look, I don't want to rush
12:57
Speaker 2: summer because I love summer, and we got a lot
13:00
Speaker 2: of stuff going on this summer, a lot of fun stuff.
13:04
Speaker 2: But I will be excited when we get past August
13:10
Speaker 2: and they start the season in September. I'm excited because
13:14
Speaker 2: I want to see what happens. I am excited to
13:16
Speaker 2: see what goes on in the inner workings of the Bears.
13:22
Speaker 2: How Ben Johnson will change the culture of this team,
13:24
Speaker 2: How He's gonna make a quarterback be the first ever
13:28
Speaker 2: four thousand yard passer. Caleb Williams last year had thirty
13:32
Speaker 2: five hundred yards with a shitty offensive line and even
13:36
Speaker 2: worse coaching. Imagine what he's gonna do with a fixed
13:40
Speaker 2: up line with more weapons, if you can think about it,
13:45
Speaker 2: we have more weapons now. Colston Loveland at tight end.
13:48
Speaker 2: I don't care what anybody says. He's an amazing tight end.
13:52
Speaker 2: Was I happy that we went tight end at number ten?
13:54
Speaker 2: Not really, but I'll take it another weapon for Caleb.
14:00
Speaker 2: I have Dj Moore, who is definitely gonna want to
14:03
Speaker 2: have a rebound season after last year. You have a
14:07
Speaker 2: second year Roma Doonz, who they literally have said has
14:11
Speaker 2: looked amazing during practice during OTAs for his second year
14:16
Speaker 2: in the league. And then you have a couple of
14:19
Speaker 2: new receivers, one who literally said I was passed on
14:23
Speaker 2: by a lot of teams. I'm gonna make them pay
14:25
Speaker 2: for that. I'm excited. This team is very exciting to watch.
14:31
Speaker 2: If we can go after a guy like Trey Hendrickson
14:34
Speaker 2: and maybe make a trade for him, I would seriously
14:37
Speaker 2: throw in a Cole Comet. I feel like we're good
14:40
Speaker 2: at tight end. I think Colston Loveland is going to
14:42
Speaker 2: be better than Kamet. I feel like you don't even
14:45
Speaker 2: need Commett. I love Cole Comett, one of my favorite
14:47
Speaker 2: players in the NFL. But at the same time, all
14:52
Speaker 2: he's gonna do is start getting older. You just drafted
14:55
Speaker 2: a tight end who's like, what twenty three years old?
15:00
Speaker 2: There you go, that's what you need. You just got
15:03
Speaker 2: in free agency another tight end, so you technically have
15:08
Speaker 2: your two tight end set right there. So you don't
15:12
Speaker 2: need Cole Comet. Technically, if Cole stays, I'll be happy,
15:16
Speaker 2: But if he leaves, I won't be upset because at
15:18
Speaker 2: the same time, I feel like you just drafted a younger,
15:23
Speaker 2: better version of Cole Comet. You just got another tight
15:28
Speaker 2: end that you paid for in free agency. Be done.
15:31
Speaker 2: That's it. That's all you need. Use Cole Comet as
15:34
Speaker 2: a trade piece for a team like Cincinnati who need
15:40
Speaker 2: to know they need to get what a Trey Hendricks
15:41
Speaker 2: think because he don't want to play there. Put Cole
15:45
Speaker 2: Comet in the trade. Put one more player in the trade,
15:48
Speaker 2: not anybody great, just somebody okay or decent. And then
15:52
Speaker 2: a couple of draft picks, A second round pick and
15:55
Speaker 2: a third round pick, maybe two second round picks and
15:58
Speaker 2: a third round pick, and there you go. There's your
16:04
Speaker 2: defensive end of the future to go along with Montese Sweat.
16:08
Speaker 2: The two of them will be wrecking offensive lines and
16:12
Speaker 2: quarterbacks for at least a good couple of years. And
16:16
Speaker 2: I think this team would be an instant to me anyway,
16:21
Speaker 2: they would be an instant like win. That would be
16:26
Speaker 2: an instant defense that could win. All right, So let's
16:29
Speaker 2: move on football because honestly, like I said, there's really
16:32
Speaker 2: not a lot to talk about. This show really won't
16:35
Speaker 2: be that long today, and that's okay. I do a
16:38
Speaker 2: lot of long shows. Let's talk Satay Knight's main event.
16:42
Speaker 2: So we are going to talk about WWE. I honestly
16:46
Speaker 2: think if you're gonna do Sata Knights main event, do
16:48
Speaker 2: it big. You got well Raw went back to two hours,
16:52
Speaker 2: but right now you've got what a three hour SmackDown.
16:55
Speaker 2: I say, make Satay Knights main event. If you're gonna
16:57
Speaker 2: do it twice a twice to maybe three times a year, whatever,
17:01
Speaker 2: do a three hour show. May it almost like a
17:04
Speaker 2: mini pay per view, because I mean, look, Saturday's main
17:07
Speaker 2: event was never meant to be a long show. It
17:09
Speaker 2: was never long. Even when I was a kid and
17:12
Speaker 2: they debuted it in the eighties, it was like a
17:14
Speaker 2: very short In fact, it used to start at like
17:16
Speaker 2: ten thirty at night and go till midnight. It was
17:18
Speaker 2: only like an hour and a half long. But to
17:20
Speaker 2: me nowadays, if you got such a loaded roster of
17:24
Speaker 2: guys who are big, you might as well make it
17:26
Speaker 2: a three hour show and just do it from seven
17:28
Speaker 2: to ten. If you're going to do it in a
17:30
Speaker 2: time slot that early, you might as well make the
17:33
Speaker 2: most out of it and make it like a mini
17:36
Speaker 2: pay per view. As everybody knows, this weekend is Satura
17:39
Speaker 2: Night's main event. It's tomorrow night. It returns a loaded
17:42
Speaker 2: show featuring everything from a world heavyweight title match to
17:46
Speaker 2: one of the inter ring stops on John Cena's retirement tour.
17:50
Speaker 2: He will now be putting his title on the line
17:52
Speaker 2: though when he takes on well you'll see in a second.
17:55
Speaker 2: So let's look at the card World Heavyweight Championship match,
18:00
Speaker 2: jay Usso Champion versus Logan. Paul Uso isn't losing his
18:04
Speaker 2: World heavyweight title so soon, and I pick him to
18:06
Speaker 2: Jay us is gonna win. He's not losing it to
18:11
Speaker 2: Logan Paul on Sarah Knight's main event. It's just not
18:14
Speaker 2: gonna happen. Obviously, jay Usso wants to be a fighting champion,
18:19
Speaker 2: so they're gonna have him put his title on the line. Now,
18:22
Speaker 2: who is he gonna face next? We already know the
18:25
Speaker 2: winner of the Jay Usso Logan Paul match will face
18:29
Speaker 2: off against Guther the Raw after Money in the Bank,
18:34
Speaker 2: which is on June seventh. So like literally, like I'll
18:38
Speaker 2: talk about it in a minute. We're like two weeks
18:40
Speaker 2: away from the next big pay per view with Sarah
18:44
Speaker 2: Knight's main event this weekend. It's nuts, but that's because,
18:49
Speaker 2: like everybody knows, it's really not a big deal. It's
18:52
Speaker 2: Sarah Knight's main event. It's not meant to be a
18:54
Speaker 2: pay per view. It's not taking like anything away from
18:58
Speaker 2: the pay per view. It's just fun, that's it. So
19:02
Speaker 2: Jaylusill's going to retain the title. John Cena Versus Our
19:05
Speaker 2: Truth Our Truth will face off against his childhood hero,
19:09
Speaker 2: John Cena Funny Hilarious. On October thirty first, nineteen eighty nine,
19:15
Speaker 2: the Genius defeated Hulk Hogan on Saturday Night's made an event.
19:19
Speaker 2: Let me go ahead and pick a bit of that
19:21
Speaker 2: upset magic for Saturday Night and side with Truth to
19:25
Speaker 2: get the win. Now, this is what CBS says. I say,
19:30
Speaker 2: I would love to see our Truth get the upset
19:33
Speaker 2: will he maybe? I mean, if you think about it,
19:38
Speaker 2: John Cena doesn't have nothing to lose. He's not gonna
19:40
Speaker 2: necessarily win every single match, especially if it's non title,
19:45
Speaker 2: So I mean I could see Our Truth with the
19:49
Speaker 2: crazy roll up, you know, pin or something to make
19:52
Speaker 2: the crowd goo nuts. I think that would be a
19:54
Speaker 2: good way to do it. It's not for the title. It's
19:57
Speaker 2: just two guys who had animosity and facing each other.
20:02
Speaker 2: So to me, it's no harm, no foul for John
20:05
Speaker 2: Cena to lose this match. He's not losing his title.
20:08
Speaker 7: I will go.
20:10
Speaker 2: With Our Truth to get the crazy upset win, maybe
20:13
Speaker 2: a disqualification win. Somehow Sina's going to lose this match,
20:18
Speaker 2: and I think it would be by like a crazy
20:20
Speaker 2: DQ or like a crazy roll up, so we'll see
20:23
Speaker 2: what happened. He does not have a he doesn't have
20:32
Speaker 2: an opponent yet either for money in the bank, So
20:37
Speaker 2: that's the crazy thing. CM punkin sammuse Ain versus souther
20:41
Speaker 2: Allan's and bron Breaker. I think that we are going
20:44
Speaker 2: to see sammuse Ain join Evolution two point zero. However
20:50
Speaker 2: you want to put it right now, I think that
20:53
Speaker 2: sammys Ain is a plant and he's going to turn
20:56
Speaker 2: on CM Punk and then possibly is saved by Roman Reigns.
21:01
Speaker 2: It is a big you know, Saturday Night's main event.
21:03
Speaker 2: It's on TV.
21:05
Speaker 7: You know.
21:05
Speaker 2: I can see Roman Reigns come out and help them.
21:08
Speaker 2: So I think we will see a CM Punk and
21:13
Speaker 2: Roman Reigns match in the future. So maybe he will
21:17
Speaker 2: not come down to help right now, because I think anyway.
21:22
Speaker 2: In my mind, I think we're going to see CM
21:25
Speaker 2: Punk and John c and I have money in the bank.
21:28
Speaker 2: That's what I'm hoping for. I want to see that match,
21:33
Speaker 2: and I'll talk about that when we talk about money
21:35
Speaker 2: in the bank. So I'm taking Seth Rollands and bron Breaker,
21:38
Speaker 2: and like I said, we are going to see Sammy's
21:41
Speaker 2: Ain turn on CM Punk, Damian Priest and True McIntyre
21:45
Speaker 2: in a steel cage. Jesus Lord, this is getting drawn
21:48
Speaker 2: out now. I'm taken Damian Priest also with the win
21:51
Speaker 2: here and that's all. They got like four matches, but
21:54
Speaker 2: you only got two hours, so you're gonna have of course,
21:56
Speaker 2: you know, a little bit of talking and all that
21:58
Speaker 2: kind of stuff. So yeah, they might even throw in
22:00
Speaker 2: an extra match somehow. But yeah, so far as just
22:03
Speaker 2: four matches, I don't see any women matches on the
22:05
Speaker 2: card yet. So maybe tonight on SmackDown you'll see something
22:10
Speaker 2: happened and maybe Tiffie old defender title or something. Yeah,
22:13
Speaker 2: we'll see what happens. But that's it for that. So
22:16
Speaker 2: let's look at money in the bank right now, and
22:22
Speaker 2: let's see is there anything set in? I know there
22:25
Speaker 2: were a few qualifying matches already. Let's see Big Mattress
22:41
Speaker 2: Pit well for John Cena, anything good? Yeah, see, I
22:54
Speaker 2: don't have anything yet, I know so far Solo Socoa
23:02
Speaker 2: is in the money in the bank, ladder Man. Yeah,
23:07
Speaker 2: I don't really see much, so we'll have to talk
23:09
Speaker 2: about it next week. I think after Saturay Night's made event,
23:12
Speaker 2: you're gonna see them hyper go into money in the
23:15
Speaker 2: bank with two weeks left, less than two weeks left
23:18
Speaker 2: before it. I think you're gonna see them go hyper
23:20
Speaker 2: on it. You're gonna see qualifying matches like crazy and
23:25
Speaker 2: stuff like that. Right now, I think money in the
23:28
Speaker 2: bank would be good for a Sena and see them
23:30
Speaker 2: Punk rematch, because that's where see them punk beat and
23:34
Speaker 2: stole the title from John Cena in Chicago have money
23:38
Speaker 2: in the bank. So wouldn't it be crazy if all
23:42
Speaker 2: these years later Sina beats CM Punk because you know
23:45
Speaker 2: he's not gonna lose to at least SummerSlam. It could
23:48
Speaker 2: be longer than that, Adam. They may have seen A
23:51
Speaker 2: hold this title all the way till the end of
23:53
Speaker 2: his retirement. They may even have him retired with the title.
23:57
Speaker 2: I don't know. And there's also been rumor thrown around
24:00
Speaker 2: that Sena could be in the money in the bank
24:03
Speaker 2: ladder match, win it so that he has nobody to
24:08
Speaker 2: face him, and then maybe cash in on Jay Uso
24:14
Speaker 2: or one of them and beat them and then hold
24:18
Speaker 2: both titles hostage. There's rumors about that, not to put
24:22
Speaker 2: them together the titles, but just to hold those titles
24:25
Speaker 2: hostages until he leaves. We'll see what happens. We'll see
24:28
Speaker 2: what happens with that. But yeah, so let's see what happens.
24:34
Speaker 2: We'll talk about next week. We'll talk more money in
24:36
Speaker 2: the bank. We'll talk about the results of Saturday night's
24:39
Speaker 2: main event. NBA has been kind of wild. We got
24:43
Speaker 2: the Pacers and Knicks right now going crazy with each other,
24:47
Speaker 2: and then we've got Oklahoma City. I believe they are
24:51
Speaker 2: up two games to not I didn't even want to
24:52
Speaker 2: see the end of that game because I had a
24:54
Speaker 2: bet going and I end up losing because okay see,
24:57
Speaker 2: what was up? Oh yeah, I was one eighteen to
24:59
Speaker 2: one oh three. So the Timberwolves are down two right
25:03
Speaker 2: now going into Game three in Minnesota. If they do
25:09
Speaker 2: not win Sunday, If Minnesota loses the series or loses
25:15
Speaker 2: that their game, they're done. It's over. No chance to
25:20
Speaker 2: come back. So if you're a Minnesota fan, they had
25:25
Speaker 2: a decent run. But okay see, is just on another
25:28
Speaker 2: level right now. Okay see has ran through Denver. Who
25:32
Speaker 2: are I think is are better than Minnesota? Yeah, okay see,
25:38
Speaker 2: is just I think that okay C is gonna win
25:41
Speaker 2: four or five. I think the Knicks and Pacers are
25:44
Speaker 2: gonna go at least maybe six or seven games. But yeah,
25:49
Speaker 2: this series, if Minnesota wins, if the thunder win Game
25:55
Speaker 2: three in Minnesota tomorrow on Saturday. It's over, it's done.
26:02
Speaker 2: I would like to see Minnesota make a series out
26:04
Speaker 2: of it. I don't think anybody's beating okay See. I
26:07
Speaker 2: think OKAYC is gonna be the champion. I think they
26:09
Speaker 2: beat either Indiana or New York. I've having a hard
26:12
Speaker 2: time even deciding between Indiana and New York. I'd have
26:16
Speaker 2: to see after tonight's game what happens, because I think
26:21
Speaker 2: that tonight's game is gonna make a big difference because
26:24
Speaker 2: Zach comeback winning Game one and Halliburton with that like
26:29
Speaker 2: crazy three pointer or two pointer to tie it and
26:32
Speaker 2: say it to overtime was nuts. That was crazy. But yeah,
26:37
Speaker 2: I think that, Like I said, I think that series
26:40
Speaker 2: is going six or seven, but I think that this
26:45
Speaker 2: game is gonna be over. If Minnesota can't win Game three,
26:51
Speaker 2: they're gonna lose in I would say four, but it
26:55
Speaker 2: could be five. You know, maybe Minnesota wins game. If
26:58
Speaker 2: they lose game three, down three nothing, maybe they're backs
27:03
Speaker 2: against the wall. They win one game, but then okay
27:07
Speaker 2: See goes back home where they're two and zero against them,
27:11
Speaker 2: then yeah, it's over. I don't see any chance for
27:17
Speaker 2: Minnesota to win that series. If they go down three
27:20
Speaker 2: to nothing, so we'll see what happens there. Let's move on.
27:26
Speaker 2: That's it for sports because there's really nothing else going
27:29
Speaker 2: on right now. Honestly, there's not much going on this
27:32
Speaker 2: week anywhere. So let's talk about Memorial Day. That's this weekend, alright,
27:40
Speaker 2: So let's talk about it. Memorial Day, it's this weekend.
27:43
Speaker 2: Of course, this holiday is for our veterans who passed away.
27:50
Speaker 2: Memorial Okay, we have to explain this every year. Do
27:54
Speaker 2: not go thanking a live serviceman for what they've done
27:59
Speaker 2: for Memorial because it's to memorialize the dead soldiers. So
28:04
Speaker 2: unless you know somebody who died, honor them. But that
28:08
Speaker 2: is now what that's for. Veterans Day is for the veterans. Okay,
28:14
Speaker 2: military people on Memorial Day do not want to. They'll
28:18
Speaker 2: they'll probably thank you, you know, and say thank you
28:21
Speaker 2: for it. They're not to be rude about it, but
28:23
Speaker 2: it's not their day and they know that they are
28:26
Speaker 2: there to commemorate the death of the servicemen who were
28:31
Speaker 2: out there who lost their lives for our country. That's
28:34
Speaker 2: what it's for. Let's see, these are some fun facts
28:38
Speaker 2: about Memorial Day veterans in Congress. There are currently one
28:41
Speaker 2: hundred members of the one hundred and nineteenth Congress who
28:45
Speaker 2: have served in the US military. The fifth time and
28:48
Speaker 2: fifty years, the number of veterans in Congress has increased.
28:51
Speaker 2: Number two. The birthplace of Memorial Day. Twenty five US
28:55
Speaker 2: cities have laid claim to being the birthplace of Memorial Day,
28:58
Speaker 2: with New York becoming the first state to officially recognize
29:02
Speaker 2: the holiday in eighteen seventy three. Memorial Day marks the
29:07
Speaker 2: start a travel season. Roughly three point six million people
29:11
Speaker 2: are projected to travel by plane over a Memorial Day weekend,
29:15
Speaker 2: a two percent increase compared to twenty twenty four. Hot
29:19
Speaker 2: Dog season is here. It's hot dog season all the time.
29:22
Speaker 2: In Chicago. From Memorial Day to Labor Day, Americans consume
29:26
Speaker 2: around eight hundred and eighteen hot dogs every second, adding
29:31
Speaker 2: up to more than seven billion over the summer. That's insane,
29:35
Speaker 2: but barbecues, cookouts, hot dogs, they are. It's all good.
29:40
Speaker 2: Memorial Days sales bring deep discounts. Shoppers can expect significant
29:45
Speaker 2: savings over the long weekend, with retailers offering discounts ranging
29:49
Speaker 2: from twenty percent to eighty five percent. And that's true
29:52
Speaker 2: when you watch TV, you'll see bed stores and all
29:55
Speaker 2: those places doing Memorial Day sales. See what else do
30:00
Speaker 2: we got? I think everybody has fun with this kind
30:04
Speaker 2: of stuff. What else do we have? What the heck?
30:08
Speaker 2: Why is it like that? This is weird now, It's
30:18
Speaker 2: not like it was before. But here, let's look at
30:21
Speaker 2: it all right. So Memorial Day by the numbers, forty
30:28
Speaker 2: seven million veterans have served the country in wartime, fourteen
30:32
Speaker 2: million projected number of living wartime veterans in twenty twenty five.
30:37
Speaker 2: Six hundred and fifty six thousand members of the military
30:40
Speaker 2: services have lost their lives in conflict, and those are
30:44
Speaker 2: the ones that you memorialize this weekend. Two hundred and
30:50
Speaker 2: sixty thousand graves at Arlington National Cemetery are adorned with
30:54
Speaker 2: the American flags each Memorial Day. One hundred members of
30:58
Speaker 2: OH we talked about that. Three PM the National Moment
31:01
Speaker 2: of Remembrance, as designated by Congress in two thousand, so
31:05
Speaker 2: on Memorial Day on Monday at three PM is supposed
31:10
Speaker 2: to be a moment of silence for the veterans that
31:13
Speaker 2: died sixt year. Rolling to Remember continues the tradition of
31:20
Speaker 2: rolling thunder the annual Memorial Day Motorcycle Rally in Washington,
31:25

Speaker 2: in New York. Twenty five cities laid claim. We already
31:36
Speaker 2: heard that fifty percent of Americans planned a barbecue over

33:02
Speaker 2: Gas prices nationally they're down, depends on your state and
33:06
Speaker 2: my state they're really not, but some states are down
33:09
Speaker 2: to under three a gallon. But don't believe what they say.
33:13
Speaker 2: The national average right now is like three dollars and
33:16
Speaker 2: three nineteen a gallon. Not somebody said, I think it
33:19
Speaker 2: was Trump or a couple of people said that it
33:21
Speaker 2: was like like two dollars or less or whatever. Lies
33:25
Speaker 2: lies lies. Ninety five percent of companies will close their
33:29
Speaker 2: offices on Memorial Day. My wife' says one of them.
33:32
Speaker 2: My work. I will be their Monday night working time
33:35
Speaker 2: and a half and I get extra eight hours of

Speaker 2: three point two million or three point two per gallon
33:45
Speaker 2: and twenty twenty five down for fourteen percent from twenty
33:49
Speaker 2: twenty four three point seven a gallon, So like I said,

35:44
Speaker 2: that occur over Memorial Day weekend are alcohol related. So
35:48
Speaker 2: make sure that if you drink, you don't drive home.
35:52
Speaker 2: Make sure you have a DD, or make sure that
35:54
Speaker 2: you call an uber. It is cheaper to save the
35:58
Speaker 2: money for an uber than to try to fight a dui.
36:03
Speaker 2: One of my friends had DUIs. It was like five
36:06
Speaker 2: thousand dollars between court costs and lawyer fees and all
36:11
Speaker 2: that stuff for him to try to fight a dui
36:14
Speaker 2: and he didn't even win. So make sure just go
36:20
Speaker 2: just get a DD or go and get an uber.
36:24
Speaker 2: Like literally, if you're close to home, it'll cost you
36:27
Speaker 2: less than twenty bucks for an uber. What's better an
36:30
Speaker 2: uber and spending twenty dollars or possibly dying or hurting
36:37
Speaker 2: somebody else. Think about it. All right, I found this
36:41

Speaker 2: eat some hot dogs and burgers. But remember why you're
53:55
Speaker 2: celebrating this weekend. You're celebrating for the soldiers who pay
54:00
Speaker 2: asked away trying to keep this country free. So remember
54:04
Speaker 2: that this whole weekend, and remember that before you get
54:08
Speaker 2: into a car and drive when you're feeling drunk. If
54:10
Speaker 2: you're feeling a little tipsy and you're feeling not good,
54:13
Speaker 2: call an uber. You can go pick a car up
54:15
Speaker 2: the next day. Most places, if you tell them, hey,
54:19
Speaker 2: I drink too much, I need to take an uber home.
54:21
Speaker 2: I can't drive my car home, a lot of places
54:24
Speaker 2: will let you keep your car there, especially if you
54:26
Speaker 2: call the police department and say, hey, look, I'm drunk,
54:30
Speaker 2: I need to leave my car here and get a
54:34
Speaker 2: ride home. They're not going to tell you no, and
54:39
Speaker 2: they'll probably watch your car for you to make sure
54:40
Speaker 2: it's okay. Most likely they won't tow it because you're
54:45
Speaker 2: doing the right thing. You're saving them to have to
54:48
Speaker 2: come and peel you off the street or some pedestrian
54:52
Speaker 2: off the street that you might have ran over. So
54:55
Speaker 2: please make sure this weekend click it or ticket, don't
55:00
Speaker 2: drive drunk, have a good time, stay safe, stay healthy,
55:04
Speaker 2: and I'll see everybody next week. Happy Memorial Day to
55:08
Speaker 2: all the people that sacrifice for us. I lost their
55:12
Speaker 2: lives keeping us free. We love you all. Thank you,
