• 0:56
  Speaker 3: the area around what is this place called the it's
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: a convention center. This is the Moscone Center. Who's that is?
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: I like a former mayor or something like. I feel
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: like that's a politician or something. They must be named
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: after something, something famous, dude. Yeah, that's what you do
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: when you're a politician. You name stuff after yourself, right,
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: that's what you did anyway, So I said in a
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: previous on the Overnight Show, I'd said, well, you know,
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: walking around, I told the story. I actually was crossing
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: the street a couple blocks over and a dad in
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: a forty nine er Jersey was he was with this kid.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: It was like seven or eight year old kid, and
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: he said he told his kids, I don't I don't
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: know the tweakers aren't here. I don't know where they went,
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: like somebody along that. I was like, it's the funniest
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: thing in the world, Like, why would you tell your
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: seven or eight year old give that? And I didn't
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: see any And then today when I came in, we
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: were walking around and it's like, if you go a
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: block and a half over, it's sodom and gomar, It's it's.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: A tenderloin district over there. It's a shame. Though obviously
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: there are very beautiful parts. It's a Bay area, yeah, yeah,
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: it's and amazing parts of San Francisco. But downtown San
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: Francisco right now, oh my goodness, there are so many
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: zombies walking around. Yeah, and somebody needs to get in
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: here and help.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: It's terrible.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: And I saw one of the police officers of course,
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: they don't want to say anything on the record.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: It's always off the record.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: And they're like, yeah, you know this area, like this block,
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: you know, right around where the media stuff is.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: They gave it.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: I forget what it's called, but they had the president
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: of China and some of the other big Shotsaria, yeah,
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: and they cleaned up.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: It was beautiful.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: It's like what it should be like all the time
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: for the people to live here and pay their taxes.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: And he's, oh, yeah, we cleaned up this area.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: And he didn't even know where they put all the people,
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: but I think I found them because there are a
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: couple of blocks over. However, day we have another I
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: can add another name, and I'm very We're gonna get to.

• 3:23
  Speaker 3: trying to get we parked on the other side, I
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: don't know. We didn't know where to park, so we went
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: to the we looked on the app and we found parking.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: So we had to walk, you know, maybe four or
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: five blocks through beautiful downtown San Francisco, dodging needles and whatever.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: So it's human. Make sure to wear my shoes today, Danny.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: So we're walking and and you know, I don't really
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: notice beautiful looking women, but there was this woman who
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: was somewhat attractive apparently, and then she stopped and she
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: was like, oh man, you know, and then I was
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: like what she looking at?
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: And right and I was walking.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: I walked ahead of her and right to my right
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: I crossed pass like ships passing in the night. Danny
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: with the most famous comedian in the world in my opinion,
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: and one of the great, the great, not Caratalk.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: When you said that, I was like, ah Bert Kreischer, Yeah, yeah, No,
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: Dave Chappelle, come on, he's pretty high up on.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: The if you were to do it, I don't do list.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Dave Chappelle just casually one and only he is the
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: comedian of our jail, exactly right. Dave Chappelle's tremendously final.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: I don't gree with everything he does, but obviously you know.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: But Chappelle was there and we crossed pass and very
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: similar interaction.
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: Danny.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: I would put that right next to me and the
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Beebes back of the day you remember Biber. Now that
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: we actually touched Bieber's sounds personal, especially after what's happened
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: the last couple of years. But I was at a
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Laker game, and back when we used to go to
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: those all the time. Bieber's hoodie paircings and we know
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: you love metal.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know what you're telling you about it. I
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: was attracted to the giant metal cock.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: His hoodie touched me. So now I can add Dave
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: Chappelle celebrity sidings I also had a at a was
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: it the Beverly Center. Yeah, the Beverly Center, me and
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Jason Smith back when we were you know, this is
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: twenty five years ago.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: We were wandering the Beverly Center. It's when Super Bowls
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: were in black and white?
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Oh, dare you?
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: And in the pet shop pet shop at the Beverly
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: Center in La David Hasselhoffer Baywatch Night writer, Yeah, right there,
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: and it was that was what. No, you didn't have
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: a firm at that point, but he was there was
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: that's not the real He was there with his daughter,
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: though I don't I think she's probably old, might hate
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: him now, I don't know.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: I don't really pick. Oh, she's the one that filmed
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: him when he was eating that cheese.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: Oh no, yeah, oh no, Well she was a cute
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: little girl at that. She didn't she didn't do that later.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: So yeah, So it was just called me and Dave
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Chappelle bonding right there.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Oh look at that?
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And I was showing Ben right now. My big
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: celebrity schmooze fest was with Fernando Mendos. Those the one
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: you said is going to be the next big, huge
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: superstar in the NFL. You had a viral moment where
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: you you were flobbing all over Fernando so much that
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: it went viral.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: I got to I less it was the exact top.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm I didn't realize there were any Indiana who's
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: your football fans? I know that they obviously won this
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: year and all that, but I was blown away, Like
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: I just said, the guys like a fourth round talent
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: and the Raiders are going to probably take him as
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: this That's what I said. And then of course I
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: got I got, Oh, you don't know you're doing you
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: know all the same. I always know the arguments because
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: I've been doing this long enough. So are you doing
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: the Overnight show? Who cares what you were thinking?
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: You know what? And it's like people get very emotional.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: What I'm very we love that, though, I would say,
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: like if I don't, if I don't have a couple
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: of those things a year at least, I'm not doing
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: my job right.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: You gotta be on the edge a little bit. But
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's an outrageous day. Listen. I hope
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I'm wrong for you, Danny. You're getting older. I'm getting older.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: The Raiders have sucked for the last twenty five years
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: or so, so you know you gotta get something.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: Just seeing some positive press on the Raiders in the
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: past couple of weeks is very strange because obviously I'm
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: used to seeing everybody put in their hands like this
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: to gather the low hanging fruit. Yea, because the Raiders
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: have been a punching bag for a while now. So
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: with a Clint Kubiak, who's a very capable offensive mind,
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: with a guy like Fernando Mendoza, the Raiders could actually
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: move in the proper direction, which is, you know, upwards,
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: rather than sinking lower and lower into the toilet.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: The biggest thing though, and this is I thought peekerra
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: would be able to turn things around. I think the
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: whole like attitude they yeah, loser attitude when you're fine
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: and then every bag team's fine for a while and
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: then the first time something goes wrong, you just completely
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: caves in.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: And the Raiders have had that for twenty years. Oh yeah,
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: I can't. That close game to the Chicago Bears. Remember
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: when the last second field goal from the Raiders got blocked.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: The whole season unraveled at that point, and a lot
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: of it was because their best offensive lineman in that
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: game limped off right before that missed field goal. So
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: not only did they lose the guy that kept their
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: O line together, they lost all hope for the season
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: and everything went to complete shambles after that.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the you know you're gonna have injury. Every
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: time I hear someone, I lose my mind. Another one
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: of my pet peeves is when people say, well, you know,
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: if they had stayed healthy.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: No one stays healthy.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: No, it's just who's mentally strong enough to continue on.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: And we always hear it is so cliche, the whole
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: next man up thing, but it's true in all of sports.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: If you have a bench where those guys are really
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: locked in and focused and they can't wait to get
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: their chance, and they get in there and they show
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: off what they got, then your team stays on track.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: But if you got dudes that probably third fourth stringers
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: on any other team and they kind of like gingerly
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: walk into the game like, oh shit, I gotta play.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: I thought I was getting a free pay check.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but it does a lot of It is that
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: attitude thing, and also like having talked to coaches and
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: some of these guys have worked here, over the years,
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: Jim Moore, Dennis Green, briefly, some guys like that I'm
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: name dropping Danny.
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: I just named two names there. That's the only two
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: I can name. You could throw Dave Chappelle in now.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: But me and Dave.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: You think I'm not going to tell that story of
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: the rest of my career. Me and Dave Chappelle had
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: a mollment on the streets of San Francisco. Come on,
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: be ready, Alfie on ferg Dog. I mean, I'm doing
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: full Chappelle. I'm going deep dive me and Chappelle. I'm
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: gonna I'm gonna get VIP backstage passes.
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: What do you think he was here for? By the way,
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: you think he was here for some you must have
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: been partying. Was he at the NFL Honors last night?
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Maybe I don't. I didn't. I didn't want it. I
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: didn't watch it either. I didn't watch it, so I
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: have no h back on. I did see.
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: Coach of the Year though, Mike, Mike verbal, Oh the
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: girl that presented is I.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: Saw the moment I was was Drew ski Oh, yeah,
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: that's right with the saying the bad the bad word.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Well, and I was like, does he must know that
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: had to be a bit, right, of course it was. Yeah,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: that was a bit. It was funny.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: It was not bad, all right, So yeah, yeah, the
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: whole attitude thing. And we'll see if that changes with
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: the new coach, Clint Kubiak, which is great. You never
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: need to learn the name of the Raiders coach because
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: they change every year. And I have in my head
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: the cartoon bubble on my head. Mark Davis goes in
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: and he's all right, we'll fire in the coach and
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: he throws the paperwork at some assistant with the Raiders up.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: Figure out how to pay this guy, you know, raise
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: the price of nachos a dollars.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Well, we'll pay this guy, and that'll be that.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: I feel like this coach could actually stick. This quarterback
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: could actually stick. And for the first time, Ben there's
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: a big name player where fans will actually go to
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: a Legion stadium to see that one player.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: As opposed to Max Crosby, who's I guess on his
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: way out right.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: Come on, Glazier, he's reporting some bullshit. That was a
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: comp station during the season. They weren't Max Crosby's words.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: It's what Jake Glazer took from it. Okay, that's fine,
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: but why now, why didn't you report that back then?
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: Why is he reporting that now on radio row at
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: the Super Bowl?
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: He doesn't I think, you know what, Okay, I don't
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: know all the personal assault. No, he wants attention. Okay,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: well yeah, but look at these people. This is unbelievable
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: to me.
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: This is like I feel like I'm in remember that
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: show Entourage, Like every time I come to these radio
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: row things, It's it's surreal because you have these athletes
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: surrounded by handlers, like two or three pr people trying
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: to get attention.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: It's it's a.
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: Little A lot happens in two months though in sports
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: behind the scenes.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know. But damn when he was Flave of
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Flav right when Yo Flave no.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: Wave, he's he's so programmed not to acknowledge anyone. He
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: just kept walking total room. He was on CNR last year,
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: was on the Super Bowl state. I like these walking
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: like we're in the kind of the side and.
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah he had dark sunglasses on eating him and
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: see us.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he was like Stevie Wonder.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: But it does appear there's a crod that's going over
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: there to try to get a hold of flavor flave
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: right there. I was going to bring him over to
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: the podcast, but you know he's not a big enough name.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Back to trashing Jay Glazer. Okay, so be care be
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: very careful, my man, third rail, ma man.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: So listen, Since all that went down during the season
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: and they shut Crosby down for those final two games, yeah,
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: the Fernando path became clear and there was even quotes
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: from Crosby saying that kid's going to be great.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: I'm a new fan of his.
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: Things settled down to where he got his surgery and
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: he was like, okay, he could kind of see the path.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: But back when he was just pissed off and he
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: didn't want to be shut down, he was frustrated. Of
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: course he was. He's a warrior. He wanted to play.
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: But take those emotions and that feeling then and where
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: he's at right now, two different places.
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, well see, I don't know, we need content
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: for the offseason, Dan, I know you love the Raiders,
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: but we need we need good content, and that would
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: be a decent name. And now that's the next thing
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: after the super Bowl, and it just hasn't been too
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: much excitement.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: I mean, dude, I think the NBA trade deadline was weak.
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, normally people kind of live off of that, Yeah
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: a little bit. Yeah, and we didn't get Janis or
• 13:12

  Speaker 3: of that.

• 14:21
  Speaker 3: He was on NBC sideline report booked the Michael Jordan
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: retirement story the first time the great Jim Gray joined us.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: Now in the fifth hour, good to see it. How
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: you been for you? It's good to be with you, Ben.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: I back in the day when I first got in
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: the media, I was at the Laker games at the Forum,
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: and I saw you from time to time.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: You were hanging out back in those days, and yeah, yeah,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: great times.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, well awesome in the eighty seven, much different
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: vibe though, right the whole what's it been like for
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: you being in the media business all these years?
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: The difference.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: I know, you're doing a podcast and you've been a
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: bunch of the media stuff, But back then it was
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: a totally different animal.
• 14:56
  Speaker 6: And then now, oh my god, well there was only
• 14:58
  Speaker 6: three networks. The advent of cable television and then cable
• 15:02
  Speaker 6: cable long and so that changed everything. And then the
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: proliferation of talk radio and then the Internet finally arrived
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: and now we have streaming, so you know, it's just
• 15:13
  Speaker 6: all you know, it's just all come together in a hurry.
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: But you know, you could kind of see it, but
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: you didn't expect it because when I was a kid,
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: we were listening to you know, the radio, and then
• 15:24
  Speaker 6: you had the vinyl records, and then you had the cassette,
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: then you had the eight track, and then that went away,
• 15:30
  Speaker 6: and then you finally you know, worked its way all
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: the way up to you know the ie not the iPod, yeah, yeah,
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: iPhone and the digits, the streaming services. So you could
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: kind of see the evolution coming, but I don't think
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: any of us expected UH to grow in the fashion
• 15:51
  Speaker 6: that it has and the explosion that it's become.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: And you've kept up with it, right, you get the
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: podcast stuff going on your whatever the platform is, Jim
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: Gray is going.
• 15:59
  Speaker 5: To be there.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Well you have to.
• 16:00
  Speaker 6: I mean, you know, if if if you don't move,
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: I mean, it's not we're still not riding in horses
• 16:06
  Speaker 6: and buggies. And then the model t if you don't
• 16:08
  Speaker 6: move with it, it just leaves you behind. So you
• 16:10
  Speaker 6: don't want to be standing out in the middle.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Of the road.
• 16:12
  Speaker 6: You know, you want to you just move with the times,
• 16:15
  Speaker 6: and time passes and and you've got you've got to
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: change with it.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: What about the from the TV perspective with all the
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: streaming and all that. I mean, you were on network
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: television back when, as you said, there was only a
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: few channels.
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: Now, before the advent of Fox. We're now on Fox
• 16:29
  Speaker 6: Sports Radio. There wasn't even a Fox. Yeah, you know,
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: there wasn't you know. I was at CBS when we
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: lost the rights. I was doing the games with Madden
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: and Summer all in the NFL today, Yeah, it's great
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: Gumble and Terry Bradshaw and legends, let's Leavesser and Pat
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: O'Brian and I Yeah, so we uh we saw Fox
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: take that and Rupert was always been way ahead of
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: his time, and boy did he jump out there and
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: made a huge gamble on the NFL and the building
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: the network and no one believed in it.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: And now look what it is today. Yeah, it's unbelievable.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: It's all over the place.
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: And in your run in TV and all that.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: So I did the one.
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: There's a couple of things that you did that like
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: were I mean, you've did done everything. But the I
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: remember when you broke You broke the Jordan story right
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: when he was retiring. That was like, I don't think
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: people can grasp now who are younger, like Jordan was
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: the king, and like, what do you You can't retire
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: even in the prime of his career, and you had
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: that before everyone else.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: It was a big surprise. It was a big surprise.
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: We were at the baseball game for the White Sox
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: playoff game and Michael had thrown out.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: The first pitch.
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah, And so it's a funny story because it relates
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: to somebody who now works at Fox. And we had
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: gotten word that Michael was going to retire, and he
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: was sitting up in Jerry Reinsdorf's box and Datelines NBC
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: or one of the NBC new shows, okay that had
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: mentioned something, but they hadn't had whatever it was the
• 18:04
  Speaker 6: confirmation from Michael. So I went up to the box
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: where Michael was sitting with Jerry Reinsdorf and there was
• 18:11
  Speaker 6: another man by the name of Eddie Einhorn who was
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: a minority partner and he was a great legendary television
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: man himself, Eddie Einhorn, and he was Reinstorf's partner, and
• 18:20
  Speaker 6: we couldn't get in because the door was locked. So
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: I went to the booth next door and stuck my
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: head out in a hurry box window at the new
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: Kaminski Stadium, it was the new stadium, and I stuck
• 18:30
  Speaker 6: my head around and I said, Eddie, come over. Here
• 18:34
  Speaker 6: is Michael Jordan retiring. And he was sitting next to
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: Hinsdorf and he went, I said, can you confirm that?
• 18:41
  Speaker 6: And Jerry went shook his head. Einhord shook his head.
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: Michael was in the back. I said, can I talk
• 18:48
  Speaker 6: to him? He said, well, no, he's in the back.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Of the booth. He's not doing interviews. I said, what
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: can I say?
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: He says, there'll be a press conference tomorrow out at
• 18:58
  Speaker 6: the Bulls Facility in Dearborn.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: And I so I was with another guy by the
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: name of Eric Shanks. You know who he was.
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he was our broadcast associate, our beat He became
• 19:11
  Speaker 6: a big mobile, a president of sport.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: I would I would say yes.
• 19:15
  Speaker 6: So he was with me, okay, and we ran down
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: the hallway when Michael came out and we jumped in
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: the elevator with him as he was getting into his
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: car and Michael didn't want to answer any questions. Yeah, camera,
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: but he nodded in an affirmation that we had the
• 19:27
  Speaker 6: story right. So I ran out there and put it
• 19:29
  Speaker 6: on the air. Greg Gumbel and Jim Cott were doing
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: the game. Did they know in advance or did you
• 19:34
  Speaker 6: broke the story? You broke whatever? Ending it was.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was crazy, how big that was.
• 19:39
  Speaker 6: And then the next day, obviously at the Dearborn, he
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: retired for the first time.
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that was insane at the time. I remember, reaction
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: was like and this was before social media, so you
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: know that was before the internet. Yeah, before the exactly
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: before the Internet and all that stuff. What about it now?
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: I assume I'm gonna ask you but the debate the
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: Lebron Jordan, I'm team Jordan. Lebron's obviously been great and wonderful,
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: and all I said, where do you fall on that?
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: Like you diminish Lebron when you say Jordan, I say, Michael,
• 20:10
  Speaker 6: all right, it sounds like you diminish Lebron. Yeah, and
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: I don't. He's great, He's fabulous. I mean, look at
• 20:18
  Speaker 6: the records that he said. But to me, it's Jordan. Yeah,
• 20:22
  Speaker 6: And you know, I don't. I don't find it to
• 20:26
  Speaker 6: be close. But I think Lebron's sensational. I think Lebron,
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: you know, he broke all the records. He broke Kareem's record.
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: Look at the longevity that he's had, look at how
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: great he's been, the number of championships that he's had,
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: the places where he's won championships in three cities, Miami, Cleveland,
• 20:44
  Speaker 6: Los Angeles. So you know, it's hard to compare eras,
• 20:50
  Speaker 6: and it's hard to compare people. I just think that Jordan,
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: for what he was, for that moment, had separated himself.
• 20:58
  Speaker 6: Now you get a lot of folks today who will
• 21:01
  Speaker 6: think just the opposite, and they're entitled to their opinion,
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: and I don't diminish it.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: But I'm a Jordan. I would say Jordan.
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm on team Jordan too, And that's like the
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: last I would say Jordan, maybe Kobe.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: A little bit.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: Because of the social media war that we're in now, right,
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: the impact that Jordan became as big as he became
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: without social media, anybody after this, and who knows what's
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: next after social media.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: I can only imagine thirty years from now what the
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: world's going to be like, but.
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: Well, Ali was bigger than all of them, and that
• 21:29
  Speaker 6: was all the word of mouth. Yeah, okay, only was
• 21:32
  Speaker 6: bigger than Jordan. Yeah, the legend more well known around
• 21:35
  Speaker 6: the world, probably than anybody on the planet, including the Pope.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: Who've had, you know, billions of followers. Yeah, for sure.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: And I got to ask you do a podcast.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: You've done work with Tom Brady your friends obviously the time.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: How did that begin?
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: How did you I mean did you was it through
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: the media or like, how did you and Tom create
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: this bond?
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: I interviewed him for his first Super Bowl in a
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: pre game. I was on Westwood One. I interviewed him
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: for the pregame. Then he won the game, so I
• 22:03
  Speaker 6: interviewed him after the game on Westwood one in the
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: field and I was with NBC at the time, So
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: I said, Tom, will you come back out after you
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: shower and do your obligations for the Today Show? So
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: we did an interview on the Today Show. So he
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: did three interviews in the course of whatever those three
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: days were, two days whatever. Yeah, and then he comes
• 22:20
  Speaker 6: back the following year. Then he's in three out of four,
• 22:24
  Speaker 6: you know, and he's doing and so we just had
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: a professional relationship and he would see me at his
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: best times winning Super Bowls. Yeah, okay, so we just
• 22:35
  Speaker 6: became friendly professionally personally. So at that time I was
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: on Westwood One and Tom had won those three Super
• 22:44
  Speaker 6: Bowls and he would spend some time in southern California.
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: And I was doing the radio show on Westwood One
• 22:53
  Speaker 6: with Don Shula, Mike Dick and Don Shula doing the
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: pregame and I saw Tom out with his watching his
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: I think it was two or three year old son, Jack,
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: two year old son hitting tennis balls, and I said, hey, Tom,
• 23:11
  Speaker 6: good to see and we just talked on the side
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: of the tennis court. I said, hey, coach Shula is
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: going to retire. And I believe this was two thousand
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: and eight. Okay, remember the year. Would you like to
• 23:21
  Speaker 6: do the pregame in the halftime on Monday Night Football
• 23:24
  Speaker 6: with me? Like coach Shula does take over? He says, well,
• 23:27
  Speaker 6: what does that entail? I said, well, we'll tape the
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: pregame and then you have to be live at halftime.
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: And our museum director Howard Denaroff, who runs the Hall
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: of Excellence for US, was the executive producer at Westwood One.
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: I called Howard, I said, you know, I talked to Tom.
• 23:40
  Speaker 6: He's going to think about it. Tom called back a
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: week or two later and he said, talk to my agent,
• 23:45
  Speaker 6: Steve Duban dubin Andy, I'd like to do this.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: And I was astonished. And guess what we've done it
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: ever since. That's great, No, I know, you guys have
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: been synonymous.
• 23:55
  Speaker 6: And halftime, he would call in at halftime, do it live.
• 23:58
  Speaker 6: And then we left Westwood one in two thousand and
• 24:01
  Speaker 6: one and we created the podcast and went over to
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: Sirius XM to do an hour and we had Larry
• 24:06
  Speaker 6: Fitzgerald with us, and so we've done the podcast ever since.
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: And now the podcast is more because Tom, you know,
• 24:13
  Speaker 6: has a lot of Fox responsibility, so he's a regular
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: guest now and yeah, here's all the time. And Belichick
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: took his place full time, and then Bill went back
• 24:21
  Speaker 6: to work at You and You and c. Yeah, and
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: so we got Matthew Stafford this year. So we're hoping
