Speaker 1: seven o'clock clubbers, the five o'clock club.
0:05
Speaker 2: That's an exclusive club. People who are up early.
0:08
Speaker 1: We call them early risers, insomniac sociopaths, waiting for the
0:11
Speaker 1: health club to open there with us at five. Some
0:14
Speaker 1: people are just waking up right now. If you are,

0:27
Speaker 1: a while, because we miss that's what we miss his
0:29
Speaker 1: Billy's laugh. Now. I love you guys show. I do
0:31

0:33
Speaker 1: you're up walking.
0:34
Speaker 2: And doing your stuff walking.
0:35
Speaker 1: No, No, it's well, you guys. It's it's different when you
0:37
Speaker 1: know people personally on the radio and then you guys
0:40
Speaker 1: are cool. So if you're listening and you see any
0:42
Speaker 1: Billy Drew Armon anywhere, go up to him and then
0:44
Speaker 1: you know him personally. It just takes a whole new
0:46
Speaker 1: better angle when you listen to the show, because it's like,
0:48
Speaker 1: all these guys are good.
0:49
Speaker 3: I like him as people. That's yeah, that's a good point.
0:51
Speaker 3: And appreciate that, Dobe. I mean everyone by your book,
0:54
Speaker 3: Monkey in the Middle, great one deserves a wider audience.
0:57
Speaker 3: I'll always say with an amazing life story such as yours.
0:59
Speaker 3: But I would say it's a true crime memoir. It is,
1:03
Speaker 3: and it happened in Wisconsin most of it, And I'm
1:05
Speaker 3: sorry today these days, true crime is the biggest business going.
1:09
Speaker 1: It is.
1:09
Speaker 4: Everyone's got a podcast about it.
1:11
Speaker 3: Everyone's obsessed with it to a point where it's like, Okay,
1:14
Speaker 3: it was that little weird, but not not to that level.
1:17
Speaker 3: But it's like there's you can't swing a cat around
1:19
Speaker 3: without hitting a murder podcast these days. I had a
1:22
Speaker 3: neighbor that was a pastor growing up, and you said,
1:25
Speaker 3: I can get more people in the seats talking about
1:27
Speaker 3: the devil than I can about cheese.
1:28
Speaker 1: Wow.
1:29
Speaker 3: And that's sort of what we're talking about this show, right, Drew,
1:32
Speaker 3: about how people respond more to what's I don't want
1:35
Speaker 3: to say what's negative negative, what's basically, yeah, what's more
1:38
Speaker 3: negative about it? Then you know the brewers are rolling along,
1:40
Speaker 3: So what do you say, but it's like.
1:42
Speaker 1: Ah, yeah, it's not hitting, so yeah, well I gotta
1:44
Speaker 1: get yell it out of the leadoff spot.
1:46
Speaker 2: He's killing you now.
1:47
Speaker 3: Jonah River falls on the nickolay law dot Com talking
1:50
Speaker 3: text line, pushing back on that a bit. With this theory, Drew,
1:53
Speaker 3: two things can be true at the same time, Drew.
1:55
Speaker 3: We can enjoy the Brewers playing well, but we also
1:57
Speaker 3: want the best out of our players.
2:00
Speaker 4: Thoughts.
2:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, but like we said, you want perfection.
2:04
Speaker 4: Right, which is not attainable. Right.
2:06
Speaker 1: The twenty seven Yankees weren't perfect. They weren't, you know.
2:09
Speaker 1: And team players have slumps. Teams have slumps. It's just
2:12
Speaker 1: not But I.
2:14
Speaker 3: Would say, also, it's what you focus on. If we
2:15
Speaker 3: want what's best, we want what's best out of our players. Great,
2:18
Speaker 3: let's talk about how great of a great of a
2:20
Speaker 3: run Jacksonario is having it well, William Contreres is playing,
2:24
Speaker 3: and we got the best picture in baseball, got there's
2:26
Speaker 3: a lot to focus on.
2:27
Speaker 4: That's good, you know. And we can take a whole
2:30
Speaker 4: approach to it and say, you know.
2:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, do you know who the coldest team in baseball
2:36
Speaker 1: is right now? The longest losing street currently in the
2:38
Speaker 1: Major League. I think I know the New York Day. Yeah,
2:42
Speaker 1: they've been offul since Judge was here.
2:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, Judge and Stanton are out, so they have no offense.
2:46
Speaker 1: They're starting, pitching is wobbly, and they they've sucked for
2:51
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks now, but they're still forty eight
2:53
Speaker 1: and thirty seven, and they're looking at like, oh, what
2:56
Speaker 1: are we gonna do with the deadline?
2:56
Speaker 2: What do we have to We have to make some moves.
2:58
Speaker 1: So should they get Scooble, Well that put them on Well,
3:00
Speaker 1: they're you know who gonna give up though that Google
3:02
Speaker 1: can't hit. They need offense because that's what's killing them
3:05
Speaker 1: right now. And Tampa Bay is two and a half
3:07
Speaker 1: games up on them right so and again like we're
3:13
Speaker 1: in this culture and Tobe, you've lived through it because
3:15
Speaker 1: we're like a certain similar vintage, like all those years
3:19
Speaker 1: when we were growing up and the Bucks had awesome
3:22
Speaker 1: teams and Nelly was coaching, and they had mon Creef
3:24
Speaker 1: and Pressyge john Near and Marcus Johnson, and they would
3:27
Speaker 1: always run into Boston or Philadelphia and get cooked in
3:30
Speaker 1: the conference finals.
3:32
Speaker 2: But it was never like they got a clean house.
3:34
Speaker 1: They gotta fire everybody, they got to trade everybody. They
3:37
Speaker 1: Nelson should be gone. He can't win the big one.
3:38
Speaker 1: It was never that was like ah damn, that sucked.
3:41
Speaker 1: But the seasons were great, and then you're just like, Okay,
3:42
Speaker 1: well maybe next year will be our year. And it's
3:44
Speaker 1: like the old Cubs thing, wait till next year, right,
3:47
Speaker 1: that's gone now, and everybody wants to win all the time,
3:50
Speaker 1: and we're coming up. We're a couple of weeks away
3:52
Speaker 1: from the fifth anniversary of the Bucks winning a title,
3:56
Speaker 1: and as delirious as that time was, now the memories
3:59
Speaker 1: are fading. In the more crystal clear memories. Is Giannis
4:02
Speaker 1: being hurt, playoff disappointments. The overarching number one motto of
4:06
Speaker 1: this show, the Huddle, is ninety percent of being a
4:09
Speaker 1: sports fan is getting kicked.
4:10
Speaker 2: In the nuts.
4:11
Speaker 1: Absolutely indeed. Yeah, And then the ten percent that is glorious.
4:15
Speaker 1: And if you're if you're not enjoying like the Brewers
4:18
Speaker 1: beating the Reds on a Tuesday night and you know,
4:20
Speaker 1: getting fourteen hits and hitting homers and five hits with
4:23
Speaker 1: runners in scoring position, if you're not enjoying that, because
4:26
Speaker 1: Kristin Yelich was over four and struck out three times
4:28
Speaker 1: in the leadoff spot. I don't know what to tell you.
4:31
Speaker 2: Yeah right, It's like you're just you're wired wrong.
4:34
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, Jonah, Yeah, you want your team, but
4:36
Speaker 1: you want perfection, absolute perfection. You want my team to
4:40
Speaker 1: win one hundred and sixty two and oh and then
4:42
Speaker 1: steamroll through the playoffs and win the World Series. It's
4:44
Speaker 1: been five years since the Bucks won a championship. The
4:47
Speaker 1: Packers won their title. What twenty eleven? Right? But then
4:52
Speaker 1: not everybody wins.
4:53
Speaker 2: All the time.
4:53
Speaker 1: Tom Brady didn't win every year. Tom Brady went ten
4:56
Speaker 1: years between Super Bowl titles. People forget that. They think
4:58
Speaker 1: he won every year he played. It's just warped, were warped.
5:02
Speaker 1: And you know the Yankees? How many? How many are men?
5:06
Speaker 1: How many? How many World Series Championships have the Yankees
5:08
Speaker 1: won in the last twenty years?
5:10
Speaker 2: Look that up?
5:12
Speaker 4: What I think?
5:12
Speaker 2: It's one?
5:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, for all their resources, for all their resources. Yeah,
5:18
Speaker 1: haven't won since nine. Now the Brewers are the Brewers again.
5:24
Speaker 1: We're old enough to like the Brewers. Making the playoffs
5:26
Speaker 1: is still to me a good thrill.
5:28
Speaker 4: Yeah.
5:29
Speaker 1: Now it's becoming like the baseline And why even bother
5:32
Speaker 1: if you're not gonna win, if.
5:32
Speaker 2: You're not going to make it to the World Series.
5:34
Speaker 2: Now it's they got to get.
5:35
Speaker 1: Through and win the LCS and then we'll worry about
5:38
Speaker 1: the World Series when they get there.
5:39
Speaker 4: Right.
5:39
Speaker 1: But it's like and it's like, true, you can't we
5:42
Speaker 1: expect the title. Yeah, you can expect it, but it's
5:44
Speaker 1: not a birthright.
5:45
Speaker 4: I would say, you can't expect it.
5:46
Speaker 3: You can hope for cheer forward, dream, yeah, aspire to it,
5:49
Speaker 3: but to expect it would be folly.
5:51
Speaker 1: And then it made me think about, like, what are
5:55
Speaker 1: the like Lebron's leaving the Lakers. Was his tenure there successful?
5:59
Speaker 1: They want a championship in the bubble one? I guess
6:03
Speaker 1: that's good, but it's one more than they would have
6:05
Speaker 1: had without him, Right, But was that a failure? What
6:09
Speaker 1: are the markets that are title or bust? Like Green
6:13
Speaker 1: Bays it's probably one of those.
6:15
Speaker 4: Boston is there just because they've won so many right?
6:17
Speaker 2: What sport?
6:20
Speaker 3: Well, Boston just as a city because you know well,
6:23
Speaker 3: I would say only because they had so much success
6:25
Speaker 3: in the last twenty years with the Red Sox, the
6:28
Speaker 3: the what was that kid that went to like seventeen parades?
6:30
Speaker 1: Or whatever, Like, yeah, I mean, but the Red Sox
6:34
Speaker 1: are currently in last place. Well they stink the last
6:36
Speaker 1: few years. Yes, yeah, they're thirteen out right people and
6:39
Speaker 1: they have all the resources in the world.
6:41
Speaker 3: The Celtics just won the title recently and people are
6:44
Speaker 3: calling the Jalen Brown era potato.
6:47
Speaker 1: And they want to break it up the tale. Yeah
6:49
Speaker 1: right right, so but again, like what what markets? The
6:53
Speaker 1: Lakers are one of those teams. It's like championship or bust.
6:55
Speaker 1: They they think they should win every year. Now it's
6:58
Speaker 1: going to be the Luka doncic. You know, Cowboys. Cowboys
7:01
Speaker 1: are a perfect example. How many playoff games have they
7:02
Speaker 1: won the last thirty years?
7:05
Speaker 3: Not many many, probably one of the most popular teams
7:08
Speaker 3: in pro sports, but haven't won the championship. Have the
7:10
Speaker 3: expectation their fan base wants it, Jerry Jones wants it.
7:13
Speaker 3: That's always quote unquote their standard. So I'd say they're
7:16
Speaker 3: sort of like the Yankees in that regard. You look
7:19
Speaker 3: at them that way, but they haven't. I mean, Packers,
7:21
Speaker 3: you could say, you know, maybe the I guess in hockey,
7:26
Speaker 3: would you say the Canadians or the Maple Leaves. Of course,
7:29
Speaker 3: the Maple leagues haven't won it in like fifty sixty.
7:32
Speaker 2: Ever cus on ice, So the entire country hasn't won it.
7:37
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah since ninety three. I mean so yeah, that's
7:41
Speaker 4: that's the other thing. Once.
7:42
Speaker 1: So but with these fan bases, like what are the
7:45
Speaker 1: fan basees win or why bother? Like what are the
7:50
Speaker 1: championship or bus? Green Bay? That's the perception championship or
7:53
Speaker 1: bus that's the perception, yeah in Green Bay. And what's
7:57
Speaker 1: acceptable at College Alabama? What's acceptable?
8:00
Speaker 2: Like winning one every ten years?
8:03
Speaker 3: Is that? No? Not for those markets. I mean, I
8:06
Speaker 3: know your question is good is a good one? What's
8:08
Speaker 3: the standard?
8:09
Speaker 2: What's the standard? What's the expectation?
8:10
Speaker 3: I think if you ask Alabama football fans or Duke
8:12
Speaker 3: basketball fans, they would not accept once a decade, even
8:16
Speaker 3: though that's probably pretty.
8:17
Speaker 4: Good to what you could hope for.
8:19
Speaker 1: It's basically all you can expect.
8:21
Speaker 3: But do you think that that that they would be
8:23
Speaker 3: telling you, well, I'm satisfied losing nine years out of ten,
8:26
Speaker 3: because that's how they're gonna look at it.
8:27
Speaker 1: Well, and this is the old Doug Russell argument where
8:29
Speaker 1: it's like, give me a championship and then we can
8:31
Speaker 1: suck for twenty years.
8:32
Speaker 2: All those twenty years suck.
8:34
Speaker 1: It's like you know, and if I'd have told you
8:36
Speaker 1: five years ago that in five years, yeah, y'anis will
8:39
Speaker 1: be gone and the Bucks are gonna be rebuilding like what,
8:42
Speaker 1: you wouldn't have believed it.
8:43
Speaker 2: But it's the old Warrens event. Enjoy every sandwich.
8:47
Speaker 1: Couldn't agree more. Embrace the ten percent. Yeah, Also the
8:51
Speaker 1: ninety percent is coming when you have a run.
8:53
Speaker 3: Now, you contented their Sheriff championships in like basketball, and
8:56
Speaker 3: they had a run with early most recently so they know,
9:00
Speaker 3: they had Calhoun.
9:01
Speaker 4: They had the Kevin Ollie year, they had their early years.
9:05
Speaker 3: You have kind of peaks and like Villanova has only
9:08
Speaker 3: had two, but that came in that peak with Jay
9:11
Speaker 3: Wright and they had like an era. Right, So does
9:13
Speaker 3: that make them a national championship kind of program like
9:16
Speaker 3: in Villanova, fans now expect that they'll stay in that,
9:20
Speaker 3: you know, afterwards for years to come.
9:22
Speaker 4: No, I would say no, That's.
9:24
Speaker 3: Just like if I said, because Marquette was the second
9:27
Speaker 3: best program in the country for a decade in nineteen
9:29
Speaker 3: nineteen seventies, that they should.
9:31
Speaker 4: Continue to be that. That's an unrealistic expectation.
9:35
Speaker 3: You know, most of these programs have a peak that
9:39
Speaker 3: they can attain to, but it doesn't mean that they're
9:41
Speaker 3: going to sustain that overtime over eras.
9:44
Speaker 4: Only a few have done that. You know, you talk
9:46
Speaker 4: about Duke North Carolina.
9:47
Speaker 3: UCLA hasn't won a title in how long, but they
9:49
Speaker 3: were the unbeatable for a decade. Right, And I'm talking
9:53
Speaker 3: about college basketball here, So North Carolina, North Carolina, Kansas.
9:57
Speaker 3: Maybe you can talk about those programs that have sustained
9:59
Speaker 3: success as blue bloods, but a program like Indiana has
10:02
Speaker 3: it and they're still searching the wilderness for it. Right.
10:05
Speaker 4: So that's a great question, Drew.
10:07
Speaker 3: What can you what is a really realistic expectation one
10:10
Speaker 3: is acceptable and what is something that fans should be
10:13
Speaker 3: okay with? Yeah, because a lot of that fan a
10:17
Speaker 3: lot of that feeling in those fan bases is if
10:20
Speaker 3: we start talking about how it's okay, then we've accepted mediocrity.
10:24
Speaker 3: You hear this all the sort of narrative all the time. Well,
10:27
Speaker 3: we're accepting mediocrity, and therefore if we're accepting I just.
10:31
Speaker 2: Live in the real world world rights.
10:35
Speaker 3: That's the other side of the coin. That's what people
10:36
Speaker 3: would say. I also tell people that that like that.
10:39
Speaker 3: It's like, okay, look at your old lady. Yeah, you
10:41
Speaker 3: expect to play buoy centerfold.
10:43
Speaker 4: What you get.
10:43
Speaker 1: It's not that you can enjoy it yet, and you
10:46
Speaker 1: better enjoy it because what's the alternative, right, I mean
10:51
Speaker 1: monk hould Yes, Oh my goodness, And there's stuff to
10:54
Speaker 1: be excited about, and just like enjoy the enjoy the journey,
10:59
Speaker 1: Embrace the journey.
11:00
Speaker 4: Be fun to be ye.
11:02
Speaker 1: I know people got mad at when Adam Ausio said,
11:04
Speaker 1: you know, they got mad at David.
11:06
Speaker 2: Was it David Stearns that had the bites of the apple?
11:08
Speaker 4: Yes? They didn't like that.
11:10
Speaker 3: Like that.
11:10
Speaker 1: They didn't like when Adam Asio said, is it my
11:12
Speaker 1: job to win championship? Will provide like a summer worth
11:15
Speaker 1: of like viable and entertainment and stuff like that. The
11:18
Speaker 1: Birds are definitely viable, playing meaningful games and it's a
11:21
Speaker 1: fun Going to the ballpark is fun.
11:23
Speaker 2: They're a fun team to watch and they may or
11:26
Speaker 2: may not have fun in October.
11:27
Speaker 3: We don't know, but Ben, sorry, Ben chiming in on
11:31
Speaker 3: the text line from the University airwhead, why would you
11:33
Speaker 3: guys acknowledge the prophecy by Drew predicted the brus will
11:35
Speaker 3: put up a touchdown.
11:36
Speaker 1: We did, We've been doing it, I did say last
11:38
Speaker 1: night because they were They were so awful for like
11:40
Speaker 1: two and a half weeks with runners and scoring for
11:42
Speaker 1: something like the Damn's gonna break, They're gonna put up
11:44
Speaker 1: a touchdown. They scored seven last night. Cal she probably
11:47
Speaker 1: market got nothing on me. Listen to this show right
11:51
Speaker 1: and Jeff and Fitchburg said, I'm with you. I enjoy
11:53
Speaker 1: watching regular season win on my porch with a beer
11:55
Speaker 1: more than anything. I don't enjoy it less because they
11:58
Speaker 1: haven't won a World series. The bites at the Apple
12:00
Speaker 1: approach makes Summers better. Yet it doesn't mean I don't
12:02
Speaker 1: want a trophy as much as anyone.
12:04
Speaker 4: Everyone.
12:04
Speaker 1: Everyone fans their own way, so let them stew in
12:06
Speaker 1: their own trolling angle.
12:08
Speaker 3: Well, he brings up a good point that doesn't also
12:10
Speaker 3: mean we don't want to win. Also, you hear that
12:12
Speaker 3: little bit billy that likes this line a lot.
12:13
Speaker 4: It makes them laugh.
12:14
Speaker 3: Where people will always say, well, you know I want
12:18
Speaker 3: this more, or I want to win a World series,
12:20
Speaker 3: or we want this more. You don't want it more
12:23
Speaker 3: just because you can plain more about it or get
12:25
Speaker 3: frustrated more.
12:26
Speaker 4: We all want it, we all want this to happen.
12:29
Speaker 3: It's not it's not a question of wanting it more.
12:32
Speaker 3: That's not the problem. Like like like every fan base
12:35
Speaker 3: wants it, like every you say that. You hear that
12:37
Speaker 3: a lot from fans about being frustrated with ownership not
12:39
Speaker 3: spending more money.
12:40
Speaker 4: Like they have to want it more.
12:42
Speaker 3: It's not necessarily good strategy and process to do things
12:46
Speaker 3: quote unquote because you say I want it more, that's
12:49
Speaker 3: not really a strategy. Okay, that's not that's a hope.
12:53
Speaker 3: We all have hope. That's what makes sports great, that's
12:55
Speaker 3: what makes life great.
12:56
Speaker 1: Luck is involved too. I think you gotta go, you
12:58
Speaker 1: have to have things go your way, injuries all that.
13:02
Speaker 2: That's true.
13:02
Speaker 1: And Jeff, here's the thing, though, let fans do in
13:05
Speaker 1: their own trolling angst. Well in the current landscape where
13:10
Speaker 1: everybody's got a megaphone and they can pump their their
13:14
Speaker 1: biled into the into the zeitgeist. It's like you can't
13:20
Speaker 1: avoid it though, Like it's like it's the churn. It's
13:23
Speaker 1: like that's the again. The Badgers are going to hire
13:27
Speaker 1: an athletic director and people are already panting it. They
13:29
Speaker 1: want to be the first one I blocked to say
13:30
Speaker 1: this sucks. This guy's terrible at Nebraska. That was ten
13:33
Speaker 1: years ago. He made a bad decision with Bo Polini
13:35
Speaker 1: and Mike Riley was it. Yeah, So it's like, but
13:38
Speaker 1: he sucks, and so therefore, so you're dooming it and
13:41
Speaker 1: condemning it. And this guy might come in and be awesome.
13:43
Speaker 1: He might be awful. We just don't know at this point.
13:47
Speaker 1: Right Again, it's because I'm old. Remember when the Brewers
13:52
Speaker 1: were trying to turn the page and they're moving into
13:53
Speaker 1: the new ballpark, and they went and got the assistant
13:56
Speaker 1: general manager from the Atlanta Braves model franchise success, the
14:00
Speaker 1: paragogun of success, the Braves. We went and got their
14:02
Speaker 1: number two man. It was Dean Taylor. Dean Taylor did
14:05
Speaker 1: some nice things, but he wasn't the guy. It wasn't,
14:07
Speaker 1: you know, a great tenure. But he did some things
14:11
Speaker 1: that made sense, right, and kind of hired Jack so Sorenzik,
14:14
Speaker 1: who drafted a bunch of the players who helped the
14:15
Speaker 1: Bruers get out of the wilderness.
14:17
Speaker 4: Right.
14:17
Speaker 1: So he didn't but overall didn't win a title, didn't
14:20
Speaker 1: have a great deal of success and he got run out. Yeah,
14:23
Speaker 1: was that a successful hire or not? It was kind
14:25
Speaker 1: of in the middle, as most things are. Yeah, like
14:27
Speaker 1: most things are in the middle. They're neither like raging
14:29
Speaker 1: successes or runaway failures, but people have to proclaim them
14:32
Speaker 1: if they're not one or the other, Like no one
14:35
Speaker 1: can ye you know, can't function.
14:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they're gonna be hot takets today on
14:39
Speaker 3: Serena losing yesterday, Like Serena Williams at forty four makes
14:42
Speaker 3: the Wimbledon comeback pretty impressive feet considering what she's been
14:46
Speaker 3: through and all the time that's passed and her age
14:49
Speaker 3: and having kids and all that. But you lost to
14:52
Speaker 3: a twenty year old in three sets yesterday. Are people
14:53
Speaker 3: gonna be like a Serena, what's wrong with Serena? Well like, yeah,
14:58
Speaker 3: like it's a little silly, but I yes, your point
15:01
Speaker 3: is well taken in.
15:02
Speaker 1: That sense again, and that goes to my Tiger Woods theory,
15:05
Speaker 1: the Tiger Woods transformational great out. It was an unbelievable
15:08
Speaker 1: thrill to watch him apply his wares for the when
15:11
Speaker 1: he was at the peak of his powers.
15:12
Speaker 2: Must see TV.
15:13
Speaker 3: It was.
15:13
Speaker 2: It was awesome, but he didn't catch Jack Nicholas for
15:15
Speaker 2: the major titles, So therefore he's a failure.
15:17
Speaker 4: Wow what.
15:20
Speaker 1: Like what in his personal stuff? And like okay, he
15:23
Speaker 1: had that the story arc. But and again we're talking
15:28
Speaker 1: about Lebron because now he's a free agent and he's
15:31
Speaker 1: not Jordan. So therefore and the lines are drawn and
15:34
Speaker 1: that's going to be an eternal debate. But Lebron's still
15:37
Speaker 1: playing and still being a viable player into his forty
15:39
Speaker 1: about to go embark on his twenty fourth season. Yeah,
15:42
Speaker 1: it's incredible. Jordan never got in trouble.
15:47
Speaker 4: Yeah, never point people talk about that.
15:49
Speaker 1: That's a great point.
15:50
Speaker 4: Yeah.
15:51
Speaker 1: Yeah, So what's next for Lebron? And I'm sick of
15:54
Speaker 1: him who cares? Like if he goes to Miami, that's
15:57
Speaker 1: gonna be And I'm almost rooting for him to go
15:59
Speaker 1: to Miami and play with the honest and bam, see
16:00
Speaker 1: what that looks like.
16:01
Speaker 4: You see what happens guards.
16:02
Speaker 1: But he might end up back in Cleveland, which would
16:04
Speaker 1: be bringing it back home full circle. That's like a movie,
16:07
Speaker 1: right to go back there. He started there, his home,
16:11
Speaker 1: Left came back, won a title, Left come back.
16:14
Speaker 2: They got a pretty good team.
16:15
Speaker 4: Or you could see him going to the Warriors with
16:17
Speaker 4: and hang out with all the other old stars.
16:19
Speaker 1: Yeah, his buddy Draymond and Steph and try to run
16:22
Speaker 1: it and Kurr. That'd be amazing too.
16:25
Speaker 3: You see, like the NBA's version, like your college reunion
16:27
Speaker 3: or your high school reunion.
16:28
Speaker 4: All the old guys are playing together again in the
16:30
Speaker 4: old timers game.
16:31
Speaker 1: I don't and I don't have to root for or
16:34
Speaker 1: against Lebron. I can just appreciate what he does. Right,
16:38
Speaker 1: It's a sports supposed to be entertainment. You watch a
16:40
Speaker 1: team like that, No, that's not your number one fan base,
16:42
Speaker 1: you're not, but you can watch and enjoy. I like
16:44
Speaker 1: those stories and you're yeah, it's like and I think
16:48
Speaker 1: Nags is and Naggs and I are kind of like
16:50
Speaker 1: on the same page. Aaron Nagler Chie said TV. It's like,
16:53
Speaker 1: you know, Rogers left and then okay, well thanks for
16:55
Speaker 1: the memories and it was awesome and now I'm a
16:57
Speaker 1: Jordan Love fan. Like you just turn the page like
16:59
Speaker 1: you just you know, you cheer for, you cheer for
17:02
Speaker 1: you're sustaining.
17:02
Speaker 4: I do.
17:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't affect me either way.
17:06
Speaker 4: Super Bowl.
17:07
Speaker 2: I love to see that that be incredible.
17:09
Speaker 4: It would be incredible. Should we should? That mean we
17:11
Speaker 4: should make Nuance the hero of the day.
17:13
Speaker 1: Drew probably probably should Nance. Yeah, yeah, well who is
17:18
Speaker 1: our superhero the day? Brought to us by Current Electric
17:20
Speaker 1: Electric arm. I'm not gonna let you pitt who is it?
17:22
Speaker 3: I wanted to be the US men's national team tonight,
17:25
Speaker 3: but that's put in the car before the horse.
17:27
Speaker 4: So hope we will be talking about them tomorrow.
17:29
Speaker 3: So I'll say Serena, even though she lost, I think
17:32
Speaker 3: returning to Wimbledon, it was very competitive. She played well,
17:35
Speaker 3: lost in three sets to to a young, twenty year
17:39
Speaker 3: old great player.
17:40
Speaker 4: So I'll say it's it's Serena Williams.
17:43
Speaker 3: She gave us, she reached back a little bit to
17:45
Speaker 3: give us some one last one if it is her
17:48
Speaker 3: last match, not sure, one last memory of her on
17:50
Speaker 3: the grandest stage in tennis. So I'm gonna say it's
17:52
Speaker 3: Serena Williams. A lot of people loved her, respect Yeah,
17:56
Speaker 3: she's great.
17:57
Speaker 4: She won.
17:58
Speaker 3: Her opponent was I think a list that's the joint
18:00
Speaker 3: or some maya joint, maya joint who's twenty years old Australian.
18:05
Speaker 3: Serena had already won like six Grand Slams by the
18:08
Speaker 3: time Mayo was born. So that's pretty impressive. So let's
18:12
Speaker 3: give it to her.
18:12

Speaker 1: by Current Electric. I mean I'm sorry by Donovan Jorgenson
19:04
Speaker 1: heating and cooling, because if your air conditioner isn't working
19:07
Speaker 1: right now. We talked about this yesterday, Dobe. Do you
19:10
Speaker 1: think there are more fights about the thermostat in cold
19:13
Speaker 1: weather or hot wet?
19:14
Speaker 4: Say? Hot?
19:15
Speaker 1: I agree because I walked into my house after our
19:19
Speaker 1: show yesterday and my wife air conditioning wasn't on, and
19:24
Speaker 1: it was like seventy five or seventy six in the place,
19:26
Speaker 1: and I walked in from I live in a condo
19:28
Speaker 1: and the hallway is about sixty seven and I walk
19:31
Speaker 1: in and it's stifling.
19:32
Speaker 4: Like, what the hell's going on?
19:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is uncomfortable. It's oppressive in my own.
19:35
Speaker 2: House to turn on there, and you know, we're arguing
19:38
Speaker 2: about it.
19:38
Speaker 1: She's cold, especially sleeping, right, Yeah, that's when like something sleeping,
19:43
Speaker 1: well you at the time or of the of the
19:46
Speaker 1: thermostat and our timer goes down at night in the summer,
19:49
Speaker 1: when the when the air condition's on, it goes down
19:50
Speaker 1: to sixty six at night, which is like perfect sleeping,
19:53
Speaker 1: Yeah that is I think it is. Yeah, but it's like,
19:57
Speaker 1: you know, Donovan Jorganson heating and cooling. We told people
20:00
Speaker 1: months ago to call Donovan Jorgenson, get your AC tuned
20:03
Speaker 1: up for the cause it's coming. It didn't come like
20:05
Speaker 1: when we talked about it in May. Didn't really happen
20:08
Speaker 1: until now we're in it. One hundred degree heat index
20:12
Speaker 1: is Andy Grifvis said, call the main call. The man
20:15
Speaker 1: called Donovan Jorgenson and employee owned for forty years. They
20:18
Speaker 1: sponsor who's hot and who's not. We just mentioned who's not.
20:21
Speaker 2: The Yankees.
20:22
Speaker 1: Yes, six losses in a row. They got to do
20:24
Speaker 1: some of the trade deadline judges out for another month
20:27
Speaker 1: at least. Young Carlos Stanton is out. So they're the
20:30
Speaker 1: coldest team by the longest. Losing scringing baseball right now
20:33
Speaker 1: is the mighty Yankees. They've fallen out of first place.
20:35
Speaker 1: Scrappy Tampa Bay, whom no one pays attention to and
20:38
Speaker 1: no one can name them any of their players, first
20:40
Speaker 1: place ahead of the Yankees.
20:42
Speaker 4: All right?
20:42
Speaker 3: I have well, was who's hot today? Happy Bobby Benia Day?
20:45
Speaker 3: Bobby Benia, Oh yeah, Bobby Benia day.
20:48
Speaker 1: For ten more years?
20:49
Speaker 3: They're nine more years. He's getting his one point one
20:52
Speaker 3: million dollar check today from the Mets. One point nine
20:56
Speaker 3: point nine is that right? That's one point nine? Okay,
21:00
Speaker 3: I'm sorry it's one point one nine.
21:02
Speaker 4: Oh okay.
21:03
Speaker 1: Man is then a direct depositor? Is you get an
21:04
Speaker 1: actual physical check?
21:05
Speaker 4: That's right question. I'm sure how that works.
21:07
Speaker 3: At some point it was a physical check, they would
21:10
Speaker 3: cut it to him. Yeah, at some point maybe transition.
21:12
Speaker 3: But you know, Bobby Benia gets all the love on
21:15
Speaker 3: this day, Drew. But there's a bunch more right. There's
21:17
Speaker 3: Max Scherzer who gets payments. Chris Davis manual mirrors get
21:24
Speaker 3: gets two million dollars. Braun is getting one point eight
21:28
Speaker 3: through twenty thirty one. He's deferred as well, exact so.
21:31
Speaker 4: He's loving that. So that's gotta be pretty nice.
21:33
Speaker 3: You know, no matter how you screw it up throughout
21:35
Speaker 3: the year, whatever bad purchases, you made, too many king
21:38
Speaker 3: sized Snickers bars, you know, ordering coffee in the mail,
21:42
Speaker 3: whatever it is, you can always be like, you know what,
21:44
Speaker 3: let's start over.
21:45
Speaker 4: I'll get my millions.
21:46
Speaker 1: This is like the Mets thing with Bonias in part
21:49
Speaker 1: tied to the madeoff scandal. Yeah, because they thought that,
21:53
Speaker 1: all right, so we're gonna pay him and then we're
21:56
Speaker 1: making ten to twelve percent on the money we're not
21:58
Speaker 1: paying him, like to get rid of him, like that
22:00
Speaker 1: out him my five or six million, and they decided
22:01
Speaker 1: to defer it. So he's making thirty million over thirty years.
22:04
Speaker 4: Wow.
22:05
Speaker 1: And you know it's actually it ends up being a
22:07
Speaker 1: decent deal for the team, but it's it's wild like
22:09
Speaker 1: the financials of it. But they were making twelve percent
22:12
Speaker 1: return on their madeoff investments, which turned out to be
22:14
Speaker 1: a Ponzi scheme, and that was not sustainable. Yeah, and
22:17
Speaker 1: so they thought, well, so it ended up not being
22:20
Speaker 1: as good a deal for the team as they thought.
22:21
Speaker 3: Some people believe if you can do it as a team,
22:23
Speaker 3: even though it seems onerous to have to pay all
22:25
Speaker 3: those years, it's better because it doesn't inflate.
22:28
Speaker 1: Right, Well, yeah, exactly. And the good point the Miami Marlins.
22:32
Speaker 1: Where are the Marlins in the standings? Because they've been okay,
22:35
Speaker 1: they've been okay, they have they have a they have
22:38
Speaker 1: like a minuscule payroll, but their third highest player is
22:44
Speaker 1: John Carlos Stanton.
22:45
Speaker 3: The Yankees outfield, Okay, they're third in the East right now. Yeah,
22:49
Speaker 3: they're forty six and forty so definitely would be in
22:52
Speaker 3: the mix for a wild card spot.
22:53
Speaker 4: I think if it ended today. Let me just check
22:55
Speaker 4: that but I mean they're doing pretty well.
22:56
Speaker 1: Who's their manager?
22:57
Speaker 4: I don't even know.
22:59
Speaker 2: That's a good question.
22:59
Speaker 4: I couldn't.
23:00
Speaker 2: We used to know every manager, every third base coach.
23:02
Speaker 3: I could tell you, Yeah, the Marlins manager is blanking
23:06
Speaker 3: Clayton McCullough. Did anyone know that Clayton McCullough. I had
23:09
Speaker 3: to google that.
23:09
Speaker 5: So not.
23:10
Speaker 1: The Marlins are paying John Carlos Stanton ten million a
23:13
Speaker 1: year through twenty twenty eight as part of his package,
23:16
Speaker 1: and he's playing for the Yankees. Quite a package.
23:19
Speaker 2: It is quite a package, but you know, and they're
23:23
Speaker 2: still good. But he's their third highest.
23:25
Speaker 1: Wise bronze will getting that much money, that seems a
23:27
Speaker 1: little high.
23:27
Speaker 2: Because they it was because they deferred.
23:29
Speaker 1: It kicked the can down the road, and it's good
23:31
Speaker 1: for the player for tax reasons not to get it all,
23:33
Speaker 1: you know, just to spread it out.
23:35
Speaker 2: It makes sense.
23:35
Speaker 1: Oh Tani's you know, grandkids are going to be making
23:38
Speaker 1: all the Dodgers. Shilling and Johnson are probably just coming
23:41
Speaker 1: off the Diamondbacks payroll from the two thousand and one
23:43
Speaker 1: World Series year that era, right, So this happens all
23:47
Speaker 1: the time. Are the Bucks still playing? People bitch about
23:50
Speaker 1: the Bucks? Like, oh, they were paying Adrian Griffin and
23:52
Speaker 1: Mike Butenholzer and Doc Rivers. Yeah, they're paying a lot
23:55
Speaker 1: on coaches. But are they still I think they might
23:56
Speaker 1: still be paying Larry Sanders. He made he might have
23:58
Speaker 1: finally come off the books, right, Like the Larry Sanders
24:02
Speaker 1: thing was Colonel Yeah, Bobby Day, that's a big deal,
24:07
Speaker 1: and it's almost become it's almost become like the Mount
24:10
Speaker 1: Rushmore argument, where it's just trite to talk about it today. Right,
24:14
Speaker 1: it was a big thing a couple of years ago.
24:15
Speaker 1: They happy, Bobby ba Day. That's a really big thing. Yeah,
24:19
Speaker 1: go to that trailbox, no.
24:22
Speaker 2: Doubt.
24:23
Speaker 1: But Donovan Jorgenson heating cooling, you're gonna see their trucks
24:27
Speaker 1: around to hit them up because h fact, man, if
24:31
Speaker 1: you're a condition that goes out, you're screwed.
24:33
Speaker 4: You need that question.
24:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure that's one of the things that the
24:39
Speaker 1: Europeans that are visiting for the World Cup are digging
24:42
Speaker 1: because it's hot in Europe too.
24:43
Speaker 2: It doesn't get as hot.
24:45
Speaker 4: Yeah, they don't have the heat we do, but they
24:47
Speaker 4: don't they don't.
24:47
Speaker 3: Ac is not standard in Europe, but they don't have
24:49
Speaker 3: the heat we do right, especially northern Europe.
24:51
Speaker 4: But it's still hot. Yeah, yeah, that's true. I mean
24:54
Speaker 4: that's true. It's still summertime. It's still warm.
24:56
Speaker 1: They still lose people during during you know, hot season,
24:59
Speaker 1: people die. And when it gets to be one hundred
25:01
Speaker 1: and with no air conditioning in Germany and Italy, maybe
25:04
Speaker 1: they'll notice that our women shave and take that hobby
25:07
Speaker 1: home with them.
25:08
Speaker 4: And you get ice and drinks, like you have to
25:10
Speaker 4: really ask for ice in Europe.
25:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, if you if you get it, it's.
25:13
Speaker 4: Just not a thing there.
25:14
Speaker 3: If you get like remember Grannis's favorite drink was the
25:18
Speaker 3: half lemonade, halfs brite and no ice, yep, because that's
25:21
Speaker 3: just like you know, the Italian soda.
25:22
Speaker 4: Almost that's the way they do it, no ice.
25:24
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter if their drinks are cold, you know,
25:27
Speaker 3: it's like if you ask for some ice.
25:29
Speaker 1: There armand do you still have the guy talking about
25:32
Speaker 1: Texas Roadhouse. I want to play that for dope. Let
25:34
Speaker 1: me check it, let me do some work. It's in
25:36
Speaker 1: the it's somewhere deep in the dams. But if you
25:38
Speaker 1: can find that, let me know when you got it,
25:40
Speaker 1: because that was it's been fun, like I I think
25:43
Speaker 1: the World Cup is the greatest worldwide sporting event. Others
25:47
Speaker 1: would say Ryder Cup are a limpics. I like it more.
25:50
Speaker 3: I like it.
25:50
Speaker 2: It's every four years, and it's like it's special.
25:52
Speaker 1: It's because it's for if it's every year, yeah, but
25:54
Speaker 1: it's every four years, and it's like the game to watching,
25:57
Speaker 1: you know, just the the way people embrace it and
26:02
Speaker 1: the way the world comes together and everybody's.
26:03
Speaker 2: Focused on it. It is it's it's huge.
26:06
Speaker 4: It is huge.
26:07
Speaker 1: It's so I think, you know, you can say, well,
26:10
Speaker 1: the super Bowl is kind of a worldwide event because
26:11
Speaker 1: it's broadcast all over the world, but this is like
26:13
Speaker 1: the whole world is into this, Like even Germany's out,
26:17
Speaker 1: but they'll they're still watching to see what happens. Like
26:20
Speaker 1: it's still it's sure. I don't know, there's some about it.
26:22
Speaker 1: It's just it's it's special. And the fact that US
26:25
Speaker 1: has never won it and we're hosting it this year.
26:27
Speaker 1: It's like, I'm a I'm pro World Cup every four years.
26:31
Speaker 1: So I watch a lot of soccer, some not a lot.
26:33
Speaker 1: I don't think it's a garbage sport like a lot
26:36
Speaker 1: of people here do. Like I have that snobbish. Oh
26:40
Speaker 1: you know a bunch of guys diving. You know there's
26:42
Speaker 1: a blowout two to nothing. Yeah, I'm not anti soccer
26:45
Speaker 1: as many are. I appreciate the beautiful game, if you will.
26:48
Speaker 1: But watching these Euros come here and watching people come
26:52
Speaker 1: here and have a good time and it's like a
26:54
Speaker 1: nice like it's holding up a mirror and like they're
26:57
Speaker 1: appreciating things about our country that we take for granted.
27:00
Speaker 1: This guy from Australia is my He's my superhero. This
27:04
Speaker 1: summer shot out current electric but arm and hit it
27:07
Speaker 1: so Dobe can hear this guy.
27:08
Speaker 4: Yeah.
27:08
Speaker 5: I don't normally go to fancy restaurants, but like, I'm
27:11
Speaker 5: in America with my son, so I'm like, let's go
27:14
Speaker 5: to Texas roadhouse. It's unbelievable. First of all, they give
27:18
Speaker 5: you these peanuts you can eat as many as you want,
27:21
Speaker 5: and she's like, yeah, just take a bag. Then they
27:24
Speaker 5: come out and they put this bread on the table
27:26
Speaker 5: and I'm like, I didn't order the bread. It's like, oh,
27:29
Speaker 5: that's free. And it's like and she goes an if
27:33
Speaker 5: you want more bread, would just give you more. And
27:35
Speaker 5: this bread is it's as nice as bread can possibly
27:40
Speaker 5: be like, if you're in Australian try and picture the
27:43
Speaker 5: most unbelievable bread, like subway bread, got this fancy butter.
27:49
Speaker 5: Then they give you the coke. Of course it's America,
27:51
Speaker 5: so it's unlimited refilled. And then it was all like
27:56
Speaker 5: ribs and steak and chips. There was an onion that
28:01
Speaker 5: had been date fraud and you dip it in the sauce.
28:04
Speaker 5: It's you just lay there so happy. And then Australians
28:09
Speaker 5: all like, yeah, but in America you've got a tip.
28:11
Speaker 5: Now you don't have to tip, you want to tip.
28:15
Speaker 5: These people are the most wonderful people.
28:16
Speaker 1: In the world.
28:18
Speaker 5: I don't even know why you Americans are so angry
28:20
Speaker 5: all the time. You guys have Texas ridehouse in your country.
28:24
Speaker 5: You should just be walking around, want to hug everybody.
28:28
Speaker 1: There's my hero right there. I'm supposed to go to
28:30
Speaker 1: outpack exactly. And the funny thing that the bloomin onion
28:34
Speaker 1: started out back and it's supposed to be an Australian thing.
28:36
Speaker 1: And this guy's like, they got this like onion that's
28:38
Speaker 1: fried and you dipper in the sauce. Never heard of
28:39
Speaker 1: it before.
28:40
Speaker 2: It's amazing.
28:41
Speaker 1: But that guy in his attitude cracks me up, and
28:43
Speaker 1: it's like, and you can be a cynic right away.
28:45
Speaker 1: Is like, I don't usually go to fancy restaurants, but
28:47
Speaker 1: I went to Texas Roadhouse. Like that's not a fancy,
28:50
Speaker 1: fancy restaurant. Talk about oreos, remember that when you got here,
28:56
Speaker 1: just a regular oreo and he learned a duncan and milk. Yeah,
29:00
Speaker 1: there's video that was circulating again of Giannis having his
29:02
Speaker 1: first brought worst like ten years after he got to Milwaukee.
29:05
Speaker 1: He'd never had a brought before.
29:06
Speaker 3: It's true, it really is truly that the comparison is
29:09
Speaker 3: the thief of joy, because when you realize you have
29:11
Speaker 3: all these other things or have things to enjoy it,
29:13
Speaker 3: you can team take it for granted, right, But when
29:15
Speaker 3: you don't have it and you haven't had.
29:17
Speaker 4: It, it can seem like an amazing thing.
29:19
Speaker 3: Like someone's like, I'm gonna come all the way to
29:21
Speaker 3: the US to try out Texas Roadhouse and you're like, really, like, hey,
29:26
Speaker 3: that's what we do, just like Americans get excited probably
29:29
Speaker 3: to go have you know Pasa Italy and the Talians
29:32
Speaker 3: are probably like, this is what we eat every day.
29:34
Speaker 4: It's cut to a peppy big deal. You know, So
29:36
Speaker 4: the thief comparison is the Thief of Joy.
29:39
Speaker 1: There's a book that came out in the late nineties
29:42
Speaker 1: by this guy, Joe Queen and who is a good
29:44
Speaker 1: writer and stuff, Joe Queen and funny writer. He wrote
29:48
Speaker 1: a book it was called Red Lobster, White Trash, and
29:50
Speaker 1: the Blue Lagoon. And he's kind of like a East
29:54
Speaker 1: Coast elite kind of guy writer and stuff. And he
29:58
Speaker 1: wrote this book about the diving into stuff that he
30:02
Speaker 1: normally wouldn't dive into.
30:05
Speaker 4: Like he's.
30:08
Speaker 1: Hard to describe, but he you know, he went to
30:10
Speaker 1: like Olive Garden and he went to Red Lobster to
30:12
Speaker 1: see what it was like, and he went and saw
30:13
Speaker 1: a trash movie.
30:14
Speaker 4: Like you know, it was.
30:16
Speaker 1: It was it was kind of like him being a
30:18
Speaker 1: tourist in his own country and doing stuff that he
30:20
Speaker 1: would normally not do. And it was pretty funny. It's like,
30:25
Speaker 1: it was a funny book. And like like we always
30:28
Speaker 1: joke when they do the the polling and stuff like
30:31
Speaker 1: Shepherd Express poll or Milwaukee Magazine poll and it's like,
30:34
Speaker 1: what's your favorite Italian restaurant in the city, and like
30:36
Speaker 1: Olive Garden wins, Like yeah, but if you've never been
30:38
Speaker 1: to an olive garden, right, like pretty good, it would
30:41
Speaker 1: be pretty good. Breadstick's unlimited.
30:45
Speaker 4: But it's just, uh, it was.
30:47
Speaker 2: It's a very comedic book.
30:48
Speaker 1: I might have to go back and reread that and
30:50
Speaker 1: see how it's held up since the you know, in
30:52
Speaker 1: the last thirty years or whatever. I bet it's still funny.
30:54
Speaker 2: But you know, Dough, like, what's our favorite thing to
30:57
Speaker 2: do is like go to a sizzler or ponder Road.
31:01
Speaker 1: Is it fine cuisine? No, but Dobe and I've had
31:03
Speaker 1: some of our best days going to the bad buffet
31:06
Speaker 1: chain restaurants, right.
31:09
Speaker 3: I mean it's like, you know, when we went to
31:11
Speaker 3: New Orleans for the Super Bowl Drew, I mean that
31:13
Speaker 3: was my really first daze of New Orleans.
31:14
Speaker 4: I'd never been there.
31:15
Speaker 3: The closest thing I had been to, you know, New
31:18
Speaker 3: Orleans cooking was the bourbon Chicken at Southwards Mall, at
31:21
Speaker 3: the Big Easy you know whatever it was.
31:23
Speaker 4: So it was It's one of those things you just
31:25
Speaker 4: don't you know, like this is awesome.
31:26
Speaker 1: So this guy like this guy just spent he spent
31:29
Speaker 1: a year going to stuff like you know, back then
31:32
Speaker 1: he was like he went to Branson, which you know,
31:36
Speaker 1: most of our political punditry and most of the people
31:39
Speaker 1: like would never go to like why do people what
31:41
Speaker 1: is there here?
31:42
Speaker 2: What do people like?
31:43
Speaker 1: Or it's like going to the dells right as just
31:45
Speaker 1: kind of an observer, like okay, and like finding out
31:48
Speaker 1: what go do, what people do? It was it's a
31:52
Speaker 1: fascinating book, but it's kind of what we're into here,
31:54
Speaker 1: and that's what we're seeing that through the lens of
31:56
Speaker 1: people visiting our country, you know, and they were told
32:00
Speaker 1: you better watch out, and they're told about crime and
32:01
Speaker 1: the people who went to New York for the Games
32:03
Speaker 1: in Jersey, like New York's an amazing city. You've been there,
32:06
Speaker 1: It's it's incredible. It is incredible, and it's it's safe
32:09
Speaker 1: and people well, plus if they're from somewhere else, something
32:12
Speaker 1: from their country is in New York somewhere. Yeah, that's
32:15
Speaker 1: that the little piece of the culture is already there.
32:17
Speaker 2: That's true.
32:17
Speaker 4: Yeah.
32:18
Speaker 1: And so it's like, yeah, that's part of the World Cup,
32:21
Speaker 1: part of the allure of the World Cup. And you know,
32:23
Speaker 1: I didn't pay that much attention when it was in
32:24
Speaker 1: Qatar or whatever, and like you and then here are
32:27
Speaker 1: a lot of stories that people haven't steakhouse steakhouse, but
32:32
Speaker 1: yeah house. But every once in a while, man, get
32:36
Speaker 1: outside your comfort zone. Do something different. If you live,
32:40
Speaker 1: if you're a if you go to if Texas Roadhouse
32:43
Speaker 1: is a big night, save up your shekels and go
32:45
Speaker 1: to one of the best restaurants in the city and
32:47
Speaker 1: see what it's like. Go to Carnivore. We all have
32:49
Speaker 1: a lon pay and go to carnival a limited amount
32:51
Speaker 1: of birthdays. Make every make it count exactly between the
32:54
Speaker 1: birthdays exactly. And we always say do what you like,
32:56
Speaker 1: but you know, don't run on what other people like. Well,
33:00
Speaker 1: I had a buddy that like robbing banks, So that's
33:02
Speaker 1: not everything.
33:04
Speaker 2: There is an asterisk there. That's true.
33:06
Speaker 4: That's true. All right.

35:00
Speaker 1: audible and I'm calling an audible because of what we
35:02
Speaker 1: were talking about with Shaun ike Hurst and people's rush
35:04
Speaker 1: to judgment and people's you know, the national pastime we
35:07
Speaker 1: always say on our program is not football, basketball, boxing,
35:10
Speaker 1: horse racing. It's bitching and money about stuff, complaining on
35:12
Speaker 1: social media about everything. Yeah, like the birds one but
35:15
Speaker 1: yellows was over for They got to get them out
35:16
Speaker 1: of the leadoffs. Bud, he's killing him. Okay, Yesterday, we
35:22
Speaker 1: love the this date and history thing. Yesterday June thirty
35:25
Speaker 1: at this date in history, yesterday was the anniversary of
35:27
Speaker 1: Albert Einstein publishing his theory of relativity, which at the
35:34
Speaker 1: time was panned by critics. Yes, it was dismissed, and
35:41
Speaker 1: it was rejected on ideological, anti Semitic, and philosophical grounds.
35:47
Speaker 4: And that's so funny. That is great, that is great.
35:52
Speaker 1: It's it had an early backlash to Einstein's theory of relativity.
35:57
Speaker 1: They were deeply uncomfortable with the abstract mathematical nature of relativity,
36:01
Speaker 1: preferring tangible mechanical models of the universe.
36:04
Speaker 4: Now, how would Twitter have handled that? Bagging?
36:07
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
36:08
Speaker 1: Nikola Tesla, prominent thinker of the ear, rejected the theory,
36:11
Speaker 1: arguing that it subverted the empirical scientific method by pushing
36:14
Speaker 1: ideas before properly testing them.
36:18
Speaker 4: Well, I could see that being questioned.
36:19
Speaker 1: Twenty years after, in Germany there was the Anti Einstein League.
36:23
Speaker 1: His theories were attacked as Jewish physics, a politically motivated
36:28
Speaker 1: movement designed to undermine establish German classical physics.
36:31
Speaker 4: Hate you know.
36:32
Speaker 1: In nineteen thirty one, a group of prominent scientists published
36:36
Speaker 1: a manifesto against relativity. It was the one hundred authors
36:39
Speaker 1: against Einstein, clinging to classical mechanics and arguing that the
36:42
Speaker 1: theory was fundamentally flawed. The no Bell Committee spent years
36:46
Speaker 1: pooh poohing the theory of relativity and the quantum clash. Today,
36:52
Speaker 1: that is the scientific standard for modeling the universe, successfully
36:55
Speaker 1: predicting massive phenomena like black holes and gravitational waves. Now
37:01
Speaker 1: it's regarded as an incomplete model today. Still, but imagine
37:06
Speaker 1: when the physicists to get together and fight. But so
37:08
Speaker 1: Shawn I coursed Albert Einstein. You're in good company.
37:13
Speaker 3: You know.
37:13
Speaker 2: People ripped Einstein's.
37:14
Speaker 1: Spirit of relativity the Greek chorus. So apparently this the
37:18
Speaker 1: impulse has always been there to dump on something, and
37:23
Speaker 1: n of us.
37:25
Speaker 4: Can't fathom to understand it even anyway exactly makes it.
37:27
Speaker 4: It makes it easier for us to laugh at everybody.
37:30
Speaker 2: Exactly.
37:30
Speaker 1: But that is our our four twenty o our four
37:32
Speaker 1: to twenty slash. You know, I can't understand the infield?
37:36
Speaker 1: Yeah right, what is the bok we catch?
37:40
Speaker 4: We figure out a catch in a box.
37:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's our awaken Bank story.
37:43
Speaker 1: Though, because yesterday was the anniversary in nineteen o five
37:46
Speaker 1: when Einstein published his paper and it was met.
37:49
Speaker 4: With poo poo. Critical.
37:51
Speaker 1: Yeah. A lot of times geniuses aren't recognizing their own time,
37:56
Speaker 1: which is why Adobe's legacy, you know, will be nobly.
38:00
Speaker 4: One day.
38:01
Speaker 1: We'll well, when I get shot stopping a robbery, they'll
38:03
Speaker 1: say that guy owed me money, heild me fifty bucks,
38:07
Speaker 1: me fifty bucks. All right, So what's on our plate tonight?
38:09
Speaker 1: We got the US playing Bosnia Bossni hurts a Covina. Yes, yes,
38:14
Speaker 1: the hyphen and they are Yes.
38:16
Speaker 3: I wanted to make sure I got that right. And
38:18
Speaker 3: they are the headliner tonight. But there's two more matches
38:21
Speaker 3: ahead of them. It's England is playing Congo and we
38:25
Speaker 3: have Belgium, and I'm blanking who Belgium is playing all
38:28
Speaker 3: of a sudden, I don't know why I am, but
38:29
Speaker 3: Belgium is going to do a hell of a job
38:31
Speaker 3: a Senegal Senegal, Belgium, Senegal.
38:34
Speaker 4: So three great knockout stage matches.
38:38
Speaker 3: England a heavy favorite minus three thirty against the Democratic
38:41
Speaker 3: Republic of the Congo. Belgium is a slight dog in
38:46
Speaker 3: a three way but they're a favorite to move through
38:48
Speaker 3: against Belgium, and the USA is a pretty heavy favorite
38:51
Speaker 3: against Bossie.
38:52
Speaker 4: Hurts a Covina.
38:53
Speaker 3: So we'll see if USA Soccer can fulfill finally its
38:56
Speaker 3: legacy of expectations. Historically that's not been with happening. But
39:00
Speaker 3: now we're in the knockout round and hopefully can make
39:04
Speaker 3: a somewhat deep run here. Let's see if USA can
39:06
Speaker 3: write a story USA Soccer.
39:08
Speaker 1: We heard from Bruis pitcher Shane Drowan earlier, who had
39:11
Speaker 1: an interview with Hunter Bombguart. He's pitching tonight as the
39:14
Speaker 1: Burst try to win the four game series against the Reds.
39:16
Speaker 1: They're two to zero so far. They've been stomping the
39:18
Speaker 1: Reds for the last five years. They've been just kicking
39:21
Speaker 1: sand in their faces. And then it would be hoove
39:24
Speaker 1: the Brewers to win today because well tomorrow you got
39:26
Speaker 1: the pitching matchup of all pitching matchups.
39:28
Speaker 2: You got Chase Burns against Jacob Mizerowski.
39:31
Speaker 3: Be a great matchup. You always like your chances when
39:33
Speaker 3: miss is pitching, But Burns is really good.
39:35
Speaker 2: Burns is really good.
39:36
Speaker 1: Burns is nine and one, two point three six ERA
39:38
Speaker 1: and one hundred and twelve strikeouts. The miz is nine
39:41
Speaker 1: and three a one point four to five ERA and
39:44
Speaker 1: one hundred and forty six punch outs. That's like the
39:47
Speaker 1: pitching matchup. That's like Skeens Miss last summer. Yeah, and
39:51
Speaker 1: this this edition will be and it's a Thursday day
39:53
Speaker 1: game again. So who would have think the Brewers would
39:55
Speaker 1: have a pitcher like that? I mean, all the vintage
39:57
Speaker 1: of all the years, who's the best pitching credible. Yeah,
40:01
Speaker 1: he's putting up numbers that are just staggering amazing. Yeah,
40:04
Speaker 1: it's like we've never seen like as much as we loved, uh,
40:07
Speaker 1: you know Bill Travers and Jim Slayton, Jim Slayton, Jim
40:11
Speaker 1: coleburn No, no, Ben Sheets you mine, Guyardo Corbyn Burns
40:14
Speaker 1: was a special pitcher. Teddy Higarrett was good. Corvin Burns
40:19
Speaker 1: want to say, I want to say, I'm but man,
40:21
Speaker 1: what the miss is doing we've never seen before. So
40:23
Speaker 1: it's musty TV when he pitches. So that'll be musty
40:25
Speaker 1: TV tomorrow. But so behoove the Birds get this one
40:28
Speaker 1: in the bank and then go for the sweep tomorrow.
40:30
Speaker 1: Sounds like a good recipe to me. And then people
40:31
Speaker 1: will complain about something that happened or the lineup or
40:35
Speaker 1: that's what the hot dog and on and on Thursday,
40:40
Speaker 1: they cost a dollar. You get a bunch, you'll go
40:41
Speaker 1: buy another one, all right. Thanks Adobe for coming in,
40:44
Speaker 1: Thanks you Dolf, Thanks for hanging out with us. We
40:46
Speaker 1: will do it again tomorrow at five amat our last
40:48
Speaker 1: show of the week, So you better be here at
40:49
Speaker 1: five am. We'll see you tomorrow, as Billy would say.
