  Speaker 1: Man and the fifth Dog. Bone off today. He will
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: be back on Monday. I want to talk about this
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: US soccer team, and I want to talk about soccer
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: in the US. I'm seeing so many. First of all,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: the ratings are ridiculous. This is not just far from
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: just soccer diehards that are watching this team. Game the
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: other night did thirty three point five million viewers. When
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: you add in Fox and Tilamundo in America, it's absolutely
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: absurd the numbers that they have done. I mean it's
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: twenty four point four million viewers if you just take
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: the American language viewers on Fox. I mean, it is outrageous.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: How into this team this country is. And I can
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: see it on the text line. Listen, that's not a
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: normal like hey, we're talking Charlotte FC, or we're talking
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: you know, we're talking about that's not a normal soccer
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: conversation on the text line, there is so much more
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: going on, and so many of you have proven on
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: the text line that you also are into this team
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: which I love, which I love. And there's so many
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: people I'm seeing on social media that are like celebrities
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: that are saying, man, I've been I've watched this World Cup.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: This World Cup is amazing. I can't believe what I've
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: been missing out on all these years when it comes
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: to soccer. I need to start watching. Kirkhirstreet was one
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: of those folks that I saw the other day saying that, man,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: I got to get into club soccer. And I can
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: relate to that because that was me eight years ago.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: It was the World Cup eight years ago when I
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: watched Kevin de Bruyna play ironically for Belgium, and to
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: this day he's my favorite soccer player ever. I will
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: be rooting against him on Monday Night with a fierce passion. Though,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: But like I watched him play soccer, said I got
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: a root for his club team. I didn't realize I
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: was jumping on a man with bandwagon shamelessly, and I was.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I was, But like I can relate to watching the
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: World Cup, and I was the type of soccer fan
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: like you, Fitty, watched the World Cup every four years
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: and then we go on to other sports. But that
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: combined with my son playing soccer, and it's just it
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: all clicked for me, so I can relate to that.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Another example of this is our guy Turtle, Jerry Ferrara
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: from Famously from Entourage, and we got this, Fitty, do
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: we have this one? This is Turtle apologizing to the
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: world of soccer because he felt like I did. Well,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: why did I wait so long to fall in love
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: with you? Listen to this all right?
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Taking a second here to make a public apology to
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: the entire soccer world, the footballers out there. For forty
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: six years, I have not given a about soccer.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: I think I've watched two games.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: They were both Roberto Baggio on the Italy team back
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: in the ninety six or whatever World Cup. Outside of that,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: not one minute.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: This might seem like I'm bandwagoning because Team USA is
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: onto the next round. I am not. I watched every
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: minute of the first round games, not only with Team USA,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: but with that Belgium team that's kind of like a
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Nicks Vikings hybrid, like they're not not good for half
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: the game, and then they're awesome. That Germany shootout that
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: was theater. I'm a sports guy. I watch everything I'm
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: supposed to watch.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: All this stuff.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Never cared, but now I do. So this is my
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: public apology to the soccer world. And you know what,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: I'm not in just on the World Cup. I've done
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: my research. I am now very much in the market
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: for a club team doesn't even have to be in
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: the the American league. I'll I'll go to England. I'll
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: go to La Liga, Aliga, La Liga. I'm in.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: I'm all in.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, soccer you go.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: He is sorry? Well, he is all in now. So
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: I need to ask this question, thirty three point five
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: million viewers, do some of you feel that way? And
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: what does this say about soccer in this country? What
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: does it say about soccer and what soccer can be
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: in this country? Or does it just say that we're
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: looking for something to watch in the summer and America
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: is finally good at this sport that we have struggled
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: at and been mocked at, Like, does this say anything
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: bigger fitty about soccer in America?
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: I think it has a place in the American sports
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: viewing on a weekly basis, whether and whether that's you
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: are more into the overseas version of soccer where you're watching.
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: You know, obviously your Premier League fan, Bona and I
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: longtime fans of Premier League clubs as well La Liga
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: whatever it is. So we got to f c here
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: close to home. MLS, what'd you say to today they
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: have the third most minutes played of.
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: Any time, seventh most.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah they're not, but they're not fourteenth like will we
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: ranked them a couple of months ago.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: So the the the MLS is growing in the in
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: the level of play is is getting better. It does
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: help though that the country that we live in is
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: getting better because it's easier for you to root for
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: your country than maybe it is for a club that
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: plays at different time or something like that. So look,
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: they've been really fun to watch. They've been like like
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: the team USA did in hockey. They've kind of taken
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: the country by stormy. They've got the theme song that
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: they play after all the wins.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: By the way US Hockey US Hockey, and it was
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: played in the morning in fairness right Sunday morning. That
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: final did twenty point seven million for just for reference,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: this is thirty three point five million. Obviously primetime. It's
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: a big difference. I'm gonna jump in here because I'm
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: very passionate about this. I have fallen in love with
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: this sport. I would say there is maybe football maybe
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Other than that, There's no way there's a sport I
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: watch as much as soccer. I absolutely have fallen in
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: love with the sport is one of my favorites. And
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: I do feel what Turtle is saying. I am like,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: why did I not like this stuff? Why didn't I
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: play it longer than as a kid. I do feel
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: that way what I think this World Cup is gonna
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: do because I'm already getting the skeptics that are saying,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Q the every four year conversation is the World Cup
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: gonna make soccer dominate America? And the guys guys said,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: eye roll right. What what I am saying is, I
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: don't think you can deny what this is going to
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: do for youth soccer in America, for starters, because these kids, now,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: these young boys, like young girls, have had the role
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: models that have been absolute superstars. They have been able
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: to watch the ladies win big things and have been
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: able to say, I want to be her for the
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: boys they haven't, you know what I mean, It's a
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: lot easier for young American boys to grow up and
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: love NFL players and NBA players and Major League Baseball
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: players that it is for soccer players where the best
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: players play over in Europe. This team, though, these are
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: legitimate studs that are performing in the in the in
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: the in the US colors at it extremely high level,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: and it's you can't tell me there's not going to
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: be tons of kids that want to go out and
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: girls too will be well, we'll watch this and be
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: empowered by This is going to be huge for youth soccer. Now,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: the problem is with youth soccer, you still have the
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: you still get to a point after kids play rec
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: soccer where it's the pay to play model, and that
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: is something that is a serious issue. But I don't
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: want to necessarily get into all that on the show,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: but that is you can't deny this World Cup is
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: going to make more kids want to play soccer. And
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: for the guy rolling his eyes saying, oh, Mac, we
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: have this conversation. Ever for four years I used to
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: be like you. I used to say, oh, it's this
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: is not going to change. We're all going to go
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: back to our normal lives. This does feel a little different.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say that many most of you know,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: many of the viewers will go back to their normal
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: lives and their normal sports. But thirty three point five
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: million people is ridiculous. And I have to think in
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: that thirty three point five million, there's a lot of
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: herb streets and turtles that are saying, man, there's a
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: lot of fitties and bones. There's a lot of people
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: that are like, oh, I got to get more into
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: other versions of soccer.
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: Well, because the thing about soccer is the whole community
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: aspect of it, right, Like it's once when you see
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: the environments overseas and you look at the that we've
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: seen here in the World Cup in when the US
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: is played, these are insane environments like where there's there's
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: so much passion that you that were used to seeing
• 9:13
  Speaker 4: in college football, like you see in certain NFL stadiums.
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: There's a pageantry to it.
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: Where I don't know if if I felt that way
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: watching in twenty ten, twenty fourteen, we miss it in
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: twenty eighteen, we go back in twenty two now we're
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: doing we're doing here in twenty twenty six where we
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: think we're gonna on the precipice of a historic run here.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: So the winning helps. But like Mack the other day,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, somebody texted in said Americans like winning, Yes,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: and then there is no doubt. There is no doubt
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: we are some front run in Bandwagon and Jesse's and
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: if you find something we're good about, we're going to
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: like it and we're going to one of them. Duty
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: does that carry over to regular soccer, but Conte says,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: we're all forgetting this week one of the NFL. Oh
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: many will I'm not naive enough to think that y'all
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: are going to all of a sudden everybody's up at
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: seven thirty for the first league game every satur I'm
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: not naive enough to think that we play it ten
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: but out of thirty three point five million, and it's
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: going to be bigger on Monday. There's a TV exec
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: out there. Forget which one it is. It's either Fox
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: or ESPN. I guess Fox, probably because the network has
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: it says if US is in the World Cup Final,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: it's a it's fifty million people that it will reach
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: over fifty million people, and I'm not here to deny that.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: You talk about America's loved winning. Imagine if we're in
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: the World Cup final and what that would do. And
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: again I don't necessarily see us getting there. But it's
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: just like, I think it's somewhere in between. I think
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: if somebody thinks all the sudden, socker is going to
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: become one of the two biggest sports in America and
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: all that, like I think, like, for example, Don Garber
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: is the MLS commissioner. He says, we're ready to pick
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: up where the World Cup leaves off, and it's like, nah,
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: you're not ready to do that. You ain't ready to
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: get thirty three million people. Now, I would tell people
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: that are fall in love with soccer to go out
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: watch Charlotte FC because at Paterentsruy you're talking about is
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: right there. It's an absolute blast.
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: It's the best environment in this city.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: And that sport section is absolutely amazing. But like Don Garber,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: the MLS, people are not going to watch the MLS
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: and feel like, well, this is just like the World Cup.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: So I think it's somewhere in between. But you can't
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: tell me out of thirty three million plus viewers. Some
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: people aren't going to start watching more soccer, and you
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: definitely can't tell me that more kids aren't going to
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: want to play soccer.
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: Now, you're exactly know, you're exactly right, Mac. Look what
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: the World Cup has burked for the show. We're now
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: the premiere Premier League institution of sports talk radio in
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: the Southeast. Because you've got you, got you, You've got
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: Bone and then you've got myself. Well, we're all three invested,
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: we're all three entrenched and historic Premier League sides.
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: We all three support Charlotte f C.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: It's an awful deep in here. I need some boots.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: I need some boots with this. Hey, look, man, bs
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: on the ground in here. You can, you can scoff
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: at it. But it's like for me, like I'm back
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: in like this is. I haven't watched as much as.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: The other nations, if you have, during the World Cup
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: has been really like America centric. But it feels like
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: whenever I get home, it's okay, let's put the World
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: Cup Onlet's And I don't know if that would if
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: that would have been the case four years ago.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: Look at Gooch, Look at Gooch. Gooch says, screw Turtle
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: and all these bandwagon frauds, stay away from my sport.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: Some people bash into sport for years. If the US
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: was knocked out in its first match, people would be
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: crapping on the sport today. Take a hike, biscuits. Goot's
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: going pure soccer snob. But like I was like that
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: just kicked me out. I was like that eight ten
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: years ago, you know what I mean. I do believe
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: it's possible to really feel like soccer's not a sport
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: for me at all, and and to fall in love
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: with the game. And I think I think every sport's
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: better with more fans. So I don't know this. Texter says, please,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: this conversation is literally an every four year conversation, and
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: I hurt my head rolling my eyes.
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: Well, they don't roll your eye.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: This is different, though, dude, thirty three and a half million.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: The fact that the World Cup's been in the US
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: and they've been in our cities, and the fans have
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: been in our cities. Like, how many people do you
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: think have just seen the passion of the fans and
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: they're like, holy crap. Like, to your point, I've always
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: said it sec football. You know, European soccer. That's the luoniest,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: most passionate fans in the world. So how many people
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: do you think have just witnessed these other fans come
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: over and they're like, oh, shoot, this is fun. Yeah,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: these fans are crazy. This stuff is fun. Let's see here.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Texter says, my kids just asked me can I play soccer?
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: After watching the World Cup run by the US. Mac
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: is all over it. Tommy says, it's definitely gonna make
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: it more popular, but please don't tell me it's gonna
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: become a regular thing on the Mac and Bone Show. Well,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: we'll obviously talk about FC, but we all, I'm not
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: I'm not expecting all the sudden fitty that soccer is
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: going to be right up there with football basketball in
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: terms of what y'all want to talk about. Like, I'm
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: not necessarily saying that, but I am just at least
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: trying to register. This feels different when it comes to
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: the usual feeling that oh, we're just watching the World
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Cup and then we're gonna completely ignore soccer for four years.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: It feels different like, for example, when the US is
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: playing in Gold Cups in the future or Nations League,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: or when they're playing, you know, friendly zee Like, I
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: feel like the US men's national team are are entering
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: rock star status, So I feel like it will be
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: a much bigger deal fitty between the World Cups when
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: they're playing, you know, and then when those guys are
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: playing in Europe and playing in the Champions League, there's
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: gonna be more pride and more interest in that. Again,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's you know, it's thirty million for
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: every soccer match in America from here on out, but
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: I'm excited about it. As someone who has picked up
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: the love of soccer, I am excited about it. Red
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Wolf said, I will never like soccer too boring, no scoring,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: too much flopping, dumb timekeeping. I've tried to watch, can't
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: stand it, red Wolf, Well, then you aren't invited to
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Monday Night's party, sir. I would like you to find
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: something else to watch rather than the biggest soccer game
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: ever played in this country. By the way, how about
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: this stat for people like scoffing about soccer or whatever.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: How about this stat fitty the thirty three point five
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: million viewers that is the highest viewed sport that is
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: not NFL in America in a decade, the last decade. Noah,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: no sport other than the NFL has done a number
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: that high.
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: Crazy.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: This is, this is captivating again. I'm not naive. I'm
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: not so so naive that I think that. You know,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: it doesn't add like there's not a big patriotic angle this.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: There's a huge this dude says, this World Cup is
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: resonating because we're beaten countries that love soccer and we're
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: kicking their ass at their own game. Oh, there's definitely that. There,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: definitely is that that. We used to have been mocked
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: by these soccer loven nations for years and now come
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: and get your whooping. We got to belt out for you.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Show me that heini, you know what I mean? You
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: know what I mean?
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: Fitty Okay?
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Did I get too into that?
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: There?
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: By the way, was Nascar George. We got a couple
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: of texts about this, and then Bailey texted, was Nascar
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: George in studio? Yes? Oh my god, how did I
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: miss that yesterday?
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: And he took a shot at you, called.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Whath that's true? I am cheap?
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: I've got the audio.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: Oh you do?
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: Yes, smug pulled it for me.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Oh shoot, okay, we've got to play that then.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: Very ironic that Bailey's in the text dre in a
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: soccer setting.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: And by the way, oh Bailey, you trying to break
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: up the soccer say in America segment, I say, is
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: there an agenda? There? By the way, I gotta apologize
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: to KB. I wro Hopefully I represented him incorrectly yesterday.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: I thought when he I thought when he says that
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: the country Road song is really about Virginia, not about
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: what I thought that was. I didn't think that was
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: a bit. I thought like he was like I thought
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: he was like cracking a knuckles, ready to throw blows
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: over that. Yes said, that's he's just poking fun at
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: West Virginia, being a Virginia guy. So I misrepresent I
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: thought it was like a fighting thing for KB. You
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Okay, I'm not that big of
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: a deal. Apparently, all right, when we come back, I
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: guess at some point before we get out of here,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: we got to hear this NASCAR George shot at me.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Man's doing studio gigs now? Is you have an agent
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: now too? But when we come back, in addition to that,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: it's other juicy audio you will not believe the argument
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: that Stephen A is involved in Now Bill Simmons, you
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: will not believe where Bill Simmons was when the Jalen
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: Brown trade was made. This is absolutely hilarious, and Bryce
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: Young talks about his fear of riding horses. It's all
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: coming up Mack and Bone Show, having some fun on
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: a Friday holiday Friday Sports Radio ninety two to seven WFNZ.
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: But it's nice and cool in here.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Y'all got some damn good air conditioning here on cust.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: I mean that's all right. Mac won't allow it over
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: fifty five degrees in here, so it's cool in him.
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: But he's he don't want allow it to over fifty
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: five degrees in there because he ain't paying for the bill.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: Probably, well, that's true, that's true.
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: If you just been I.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: Met his house, he probably keeps about seventy five eighty.
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: He ain't paying for the bill.
• 18:25
  Speaker 6: Oh, put it down to zero degrees, you know, if
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: you're getting it for free.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: This is actually something I wanted to talk about. So
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: in the middle of being slammed by NASCAR, George Georgie,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: I didn't know you were that big time baby in studio.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: Next thing, you know, when one of us is on
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: vacation NASCAR, George is going to get the call up
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: for a fill in shift. I mean, that's where we're
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: headed with this. But I am kind of cheap. But
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: it's also because I don't know if I have that
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: much money. But I am not cheap Fitty. When it
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: comes to air conditioning. We visited my sister who lives
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: in San Antonio where it's pretty freaking hot. Right, they
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: set their air conditioning to seventy six, seventy or seventy seven.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: We are seventy one seventy two people. Now, when Fitty
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: comes to my house, it's probably gonna be up to
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: seventy seven. Because I want I don't want to spend
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: the money if I don't have to. I'm just kidding.
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. What do you keep your air at, Fitty?
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: I feel like I'm not. I feel like I'm willing
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: to spend on air conditioning because I'm hot nature. That's
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: why I take my shirt off the second I get
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: in the hot I get hot. If I have my
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: shirt on, I can't stand it. I'm uncomfortable.
• 19:35
  Speaker 5: I am like a seventy degree person.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Wow, So you're even more so than me.
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: I grew up when I lived with my mom. I'm
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: not lying to you. Mac sixty five that the air in.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: Holy so Here I thought I were around that we
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: were cold. Yeah, sixty five. It would be the summertime.
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: It could be it's gonna be one hundred and seven
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: tomorrow and I'd be walking around in pants and this's
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: what shirt, because that's how.
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: That's how cold it would be.
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: We would joke that you could see penguins at the
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: house as it was like the Arctic.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: That's amazing. All right, we're getting ready to do sounds.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: People are saying, sixty eight maleik sixty nine.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: My mom all's a seventy five degree person, and it's
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: it's an.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: Adjustment to my sister and her and her husband's seventy six,
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: seventy seven or you know what. And by the way,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: he's a doctor. They're filthy rich, so it ain't cheap.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: It's not cheapness. How do they do that? They also
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: have some powerful ceiling fans. I will say that their
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: ceiling fans were powerful. Yeah, this is crazy. So are
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: we cheap? It is seventy two? Like warm? Because most
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: of y'all say in the sixties, Charisma Supreme sixty five
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: year Round Worldwide Chopper sixty five. No wonder Americans don't
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: have any money in twenty twenty six. We're spending it
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: all on AC. That's crazy. And cause our in laws,
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: our in laws are like seventy five seventy six, and
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: my wife I will always go to the pedroom and
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: complain about it silently. But like so, I assumed there
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: were more people out there that were you know what
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, that were like seventy six ers not talking hoops. Now,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: by the way, did you see the sixers are looking
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: into Lebron too. They're trying to add to Lebron, to
• 21:18

  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: I don't know is that really what y'all keep it
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: at or is there an underlying joke there? They all
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: just guy, Yeah, y'all just like Gronk out there. AC
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: seventy five seventy six is for people over seventy five
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: years old. Yeah, I guess maybe that's the case. All right, Ay,
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: let's get to our audio here. Let's get to our audio.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: Shall we have a little fun with some juicy audio
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: and includes Steven A. Smith. Steven Smith got called out
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: by somebody for his comments on too many white basketball
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: players on the Lakers, and now they're in a back
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: and I just can't believe how serious this has gotten.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: But let's start with the fun stuff. Bill Simmons on
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: his podcast this story. He's a dieart Celtics fan. He
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: is not happy about the Jalen Brown trade. I mean,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: Bostonians are like even double as miserable as usual, that's
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: how bad the Jaylen Brown trade was. And Bill Simmons
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: told an amazing story about where he was he was
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: getting a colonoscopy, well the Jalen Brown trade was made,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: wakes up from it and his wife tells him the
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: news this is tremendous.
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: Come out.
• 22:40
  Speaker 7: My wife's waited and picked me up and she goes,
• 22:43
  Speaker 7: they traded Jalen Brown.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I had just woke it.
• 22:46
  Speaker 7: Up from anesthesia, and I'm not, as you guys know,
• 22:49
  Speaker 7: not really coherent, and I'm.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: Like whoa, where'd he go?
• 22:53
  Speaker 7: She's like, to Philly for Paul George and two first
• 22:56
  Speaker 7: round picks.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I think I'm dead. I think I died.
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: Stay she killed me and now I'm a dead person.
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: And I'm like and I'm just trying to process it.
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: And it's you know, it's like I have a head injured,
• 23:15
  Speaker 7: and I'm like, is are there my first round picks?
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: Did they get the clippers first? And she's like, Zoe's
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: really upset.
• 23:24
  Speaker 7: So now my daughter, who looked like jay Le Brown
• 23:27
  Speaker 7: and and I'm like, all right, can you read me
• 23:29
  Speaker 7: what the trade is? And she reads me the trade.
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: And then I stumble out of this.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Hospital place.
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: So when this trade happened at three twenty Pacific time,
• 23:42
  Speaker 7: I had a camera in my ass, and I had
• 23:44
  Speaker 7: Paul George being rammed up my ass, and that what's
• 23:47
  Speaker 7: happening at the same time. And that's how I'm gonna
• 23:49
  Speaker 7: remember July first, twenty twenty six.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: That is well said. Imagine that your team makes his trade.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Imagine if the Lamello trade made uh and you're just
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: waking up from that happening and you're trying to come
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: back to reality and you get a horrible trade being made,
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: and you're trying to figure out is this real? All right?
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: That is amazing. That is absolutely amazing. Fight for twelve
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: on the text line says, doesn't matter what I set
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: the thermostad on, kids will never shut the door anyway,
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: so it stays hot. That brings up Mac Junior. Fitty
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: saw this when he came to the house the other week.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: The dude does this thing in the middle of summer
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: where he wants his window open while he plays video games.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know why you want the neighbors to hear
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: your obsessive video game screaming, but anyway, we have to
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: tell him the air conditioning's on, close the window. I'm
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: glad to hear it's not only my kid that does
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: this sort of shenano.
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: I was gonnacern when I pulled up to meet the
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: dogs that he had broken another window.
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: That's what I thought of.
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. It's like, why wouldn't you want a comfortable room?
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: What do you why do you want? Tonight? He better
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: not if he better not be trying that one hundred
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: degrees today, he better not be trying that window open thing.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: All right, Let's get to more juicy audio here before
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: we get to Stephen A and let you know who
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: he's arguing with because he made fun of white basketball players.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: We will give you Bryce Young. A guy named Stephen Harmon,
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: uh put together a damn near two hour like video
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: piece behind the scenes of the Mullins trail ride that
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Excel put on and that Bryce Young went to. And
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: Bryce was on the a TV. He didn't want to
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: ride the horse. Well, Stephen Harmon goes over and meets
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: Bryce Young for the first time on this and it's
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: and they have the video footage included in this almost
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: like a documentary behind the scenes, and uh, he wants
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: to know why Bryce is not riding a horse. Listen
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: to this, Well, Bryce might stay on the sidelines, for instance,
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: you just getting the path that thing. I never think
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: you don't get any trouble. I never been on no horn,
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: no horse.
• 25:54
  Speaker 7: Look at this my Lord Cheeta roller A thousand people
• 25:57
  Speaker 7: that they been on it.
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: But this devil, well you've.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Gotta feel you out him on one in Charlotte.
• 26:03
  Speaker 5: That's okay.
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: So anyway, anyway, yeah, I mean, I'm gonna just observe city.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: But yeah, yea, I'm gonna work my way up there.
• 26:14
  Speaker 8: I'm gonna work my way up there.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: You should feel like I mean, I headed football plays.
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: I don't know what become attack on you?
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: What do you do then?
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: Like you just brace yourself?
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, you just you know a little different journal
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: and pumping when when you play field.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: All right, there you go. So they're trying to see
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: if they can get Bryce on the horse price state
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: on the a t V. Gator Rube, gator roube off
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: the top rope at poor Bryce, Bryce young. Probably Bryce
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: his feet probably dangle riding the pony in front of
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: the kmart, So he should be scared of riding that
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: big old horse, right, man, Hey, we don't want I'm
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: fine with bru I don't care if it's fear, whatever
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: you want to call it. I'm fine with Bryce not
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: getting The last thing we need is some dang mullin's
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: horse tossing Bryce and Bryce ends up getting injured. We
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: don't need that, man, we don't need that fitty. I'm
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: good with this smart decision. Bryce.
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we don't need our quarterback that's about to get
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: paid fifty million dollars riding horses.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: This dude said, Bryce should not only ride a horse.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: He should ride them for a living. He's jockey sized.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: I believe that we definitely made that joke Pride previously
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: about this trail ride. All right, So anyway, it's it's
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: kind of a funny video. They all try raccoon, they
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: try to get there's a female TV reporter that they
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: get to try the raccoon or whatever, and it's it's
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: fairly entertaining. But the problem is if it might trigger
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: your anger of saying, say, if your league get why
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: aren't you practicing football? And in fairness to him, there's
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: been plenty of video of him working on routes and
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: practicing football, and fairness to him, but it might trigger
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: you if you're trying to get triggered about Excel and
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: not want to enjoy XCEL anymore. He might not want
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: to watch the video. All right, let's move along to
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: the stephen A controversy. I have to be honest with you.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: I just felt we should just laugh at this. I
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: know there were listeners yesterday that were legit mad saying,
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: why is steven A what steven A said is racist?
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: Why are we not pissed off at what steven A
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: said about the Lakers that now that they have their
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: three best players are white basketball players, they're doomed. I mean,
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: I was just willing to write it off as just
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: him being silly, right, but not Emmanuelacho. Emmanuelacho on the
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: Speakeasy podcast had to call out Stephen A.
• 28:32
  Speaker 9: Steven A, you would be the first one on first
• 28:35
  Speaker 9: take crying racism in the event the role was reversed
• 28:39
  Speaker 9: and an individual said, we ain't seen twenty black quarterbacks
• 28:42
  Speaker 9: when Super bowls. Now, I'm talking full black quarterbacks. Okay,
• 28:45
  Speaker 9: I'm talking black Mama and black daddy.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: Stephen.
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: There's a difference.
• 28:49
  Speaker 9: Between causation, correlation and coincidence. Now, if you wanted to,
• 28:53
  Speaker 9: and I know you can because you are one of
• 28:55
  Speaker 9: the more stupe basketball analysts in the history of the sport,
• 28:58
  Speaker 9: if you wanted to say, I do I don't think
• 29:00
  Speaker 9: that Walker Kessler, Austin Reeves, Luka Doncic have the athleticism
• 29:06
  Speaker 9: to be able to slow down opposing offenses and lead
• 29:09
  Speaker 9: the Lakers to a championship beyond the shadow of a doubt.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: You can say that.
• 29:13
  Speaker 9: But if you want to bring up something that might
• 29:15
  Speaker 9: be coincidental and act like what is coincidental is causation?
• 29:19
  Speaker 9: Or correlation based upon race. Now, you just as wrong
• 29:22
  Speaker 9: as the individuals twenty and twenty five years ago who
• 29:25
  Speaker 9: said black quarterbacks.
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: Aren't smart enough to lead a team to a super Bowl.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: All right, so Emmanuelatcha called out steven A. I'm guessing
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: everybody knows fitty what happens next. Steven A is not
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: one to get called out and just say, Okay, you
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: said your piece. I'm gonna move on. This is stephen
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: A's response trying to defend his comments that the Lakers
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: can't win because their three best players are white.
• 29:52
  Speaker 6: But I respect the man, you latch it. I just
• 29:54
  Speaker 6: think he's taking the easy way out there. We're talking
• 29:56
  Speaker 6: basketball history shouldn't be said. Well, that says you, Manulatcha.
• 30:02
  Speaker 6: On stephen A, I'm gonna say what I feel.
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: You are absolutely right.
• 30:09
  Speaker 6: Every truth they meant to be told, particularly at certain times,
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: and I'm sensitive to that reality and I got that.
• 30:21
  Speaker 6: But damn, the Lakers recently agreed to the deal with Luca.
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: You turn around to Usta Authur reeves not only that
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: you go out and you get Welcoa Tessler. In the meantime,
• 30:37
  Speaker 6: Lebron James walks out the building Rie Hot Tomorrow walks
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: out the building, Marcus Smart walks out the building, and
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: I'm saying, Hey, these are the Lakers.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: That ain't gonna cut it, all right, And I don't
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: think it's gonna cut it. I think the I mean,
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: the Lakers are paying four to seventy three million for
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: those three guys. Reeves Luke is amazing, But Reeves and
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: Walker Kesseler, are you kidding me? So is this supposed
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: to be a thing that people are like? I feel
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: like they're taking it too seriously. And by the way,
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: why doesn't stephen A say, Amnuelacho relax. I was just joking.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: It was just a joke, like because I thought it
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: was a joke, and now they're into a serious back
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: and forth, like why can't it just be I was
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: just making a joke, because I think his point ultimately is, Fitty,
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: if this is your three best players, you're in trouble.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: And I think he just did the white player thing
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: and this isn't golf. I think he was just trying
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: to be funny. But why doesn't he just say that?
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: And should a Manuelato have taken it debt seriously?
• 31:38
  Speaker 10: No?
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I just I was some of you
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: all got mad at stephen A. Some of y'all said
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: stephen as A deserves to be called out. I just
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: I just thought it was silly stuff. The old white
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: man can't jump the old you know what I mean,
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: the old white man basketball player stereotype humor. I didn't
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: really think anything, but.
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: There was a causation to the correlation of what stephen A.
• 31:56
  Speaker 5: Smith was saying.
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: Oh, the best thing about he knows how to use
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: these big words that have no meaning or substance to
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: what he is saying, Like he literally mac just talks like.
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: There's some stuff that stephen A says that is very nonsensical,
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: but there's something to it.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Did you notice, first of all, the text line is
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: completely divided. Hermit Photography said it wasn't a joke. You
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: can't say it like that. But then you have plenty
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: of these texts. Fiddy's galto texting in as a white dude,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: steven A's one hundred percent right, like, so it's funny.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: The audience is so different on this whole thing. Did
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: stephen A sound weird in that clip? Yes, like had
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: he been drinking or something like? I don't want to
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: like I'm not. I don't want to get like a
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: libel suit or anything or slander. But like I'm just asking.
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: Or was you don't want to make an enemy out
• 32:49
  Speaker 5: of me?
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: I know I don't want to get on his list either,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: all right, I'd like to stay off that list, mister A.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: I'd like to stay off that list. But what didn't
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: he sound different?
• 32:57
  Speaker 5: He did?
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: But it could have just like a list or something.
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, there was something with the audio with.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: Someone's going on there. I don't know if anybody caught that.
• 33:04
  Speaker 5: Maybe he just eating a doughnut and I was trying
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: to talk through it. Who would do such a thing
• 33:08
  Speaker 5: on radio?
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Is that how I sounded yesterday? We're eating right after
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: the donut? But you know what makes me talk that way?
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: Sometimes if I chew a lot of ice, like I'm
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: a big kind of ice cheer love it Like at
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: the house, I'll drink water and then chew ice or whatever,
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: and then I'll try to talk and I'll realize my
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: tongue is frozen and I'm talking with a lisp. Was
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: he just chewing ice? Baby?
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: Maybe?
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: But it's funny. I just I can't believe that got
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: that serious? And then I couldn't take him seriously because
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: he had this kind of weird sounding voice. Anyway, all right,
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: I think we need a holiday, Fitty. I think we're
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: here for a holo. I think it's time for a holiday.

  Speaker 1: We've got a lot of the pizza for you in
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: Italy for the five hundredth time you Ninny Ninny.
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: Also, have you noticed that whenever Willy host he comes
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: in and overtakes the final segment.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: I don't do any though, Like he was just hanging.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: I didn't know, but I brought him in because he was.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: You were ripping both of us.
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: But you know, Colin ever comes in during the final segment,
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: Colin waits until we get done.
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: As Colin is MGMT. He's got bigger things and bigger
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: fish to front. That's true.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: He has to figure out who is I hope he
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: realizes number one on his.
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: Colin's got to make sure you get paid on time, Palell.
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: Fitty told us during the break he helps work payroll.
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: No, we're both concerned.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: We're all screwed. Don't Fitty's working payroll. This his trouble man.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: I don't believe that. Oh my gosh, Colin's first order
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: of business, Fitty. I want you to tell him when
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: he comes back on Monday. I've been texting him. His
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: first order business is to decide who is our goalkeeper
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: for Goalie Wars representing w FNZ. Is it Willy or
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: is it Walker? Coach Colin is supposed to make the choice.
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: Those are the two fan suggestions. All right, make sure
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: he does that on Monday.
• 37:30
  Speaker 5: I want to see Willie and Gold so bad.
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: That could be amazing? Is that just because you're too
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: much of a wos to do it yourself?
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: Oh? I would love to do it.
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: Would you do it?
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: I'd do it in a heartbeat, back all the things
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: that I do, all the things I do as God.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: Promise me if those guys don't do it, because we
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: did want to put the fan choices up there. But
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: if Willy don't want to do it, Walker doesn't want
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: to do it, promise me he will do it.
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: Fitty, I just don't feel confident that I can bring
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: back the station glory. I feel like I'd put egg
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: on our face. I want to win.
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: I want to win it.
