1:37
birthday to all of you celebrating a birthday today. It is May sixteenth today.
1:44
That's right, We are ready to go at what a pack show we're
1:49
gonna have for you today. Of course we're going to talk about the NBA
1:53
at NHL playoffs, but we got a lot of NFL news. The NFL
1:57
schedule was released last night and so all the teams officially know exactly who they're
2:04
gonna play. And when we got prime time games, we got a lot
2:07
of stuff to go over and the WNBA started. We also have TV shows
2:13
that were renewed for next year already a bunch of them already renewed, and
2:16
of course the movie box office, we got such a pack show that I
2:20
did not And on top of that, I was also sick this week and
2:24
I had to miss work, so I really did not have a chance to
2:28
do the top ten list or my radio where I listened to an album and
2:35
I review it. I did not have time for that this week, so
2:38
we will get right back to that next week. I'm gonna do DMX It's
2:40
Hell, It's Hot and It's Dark and Hell It's Hot, one of my
2:46
favorite albums from back in the nineties, and my boy Corey wanted to hear
2:50
that. So next week I will review that album. But like I said,
2:53
this week's been a crazy week. But I still was able to get
2:57
this show together, obviously, because there's a lot of new to talk about.
3:00
We also have the WWE King and Queen of the Ring qualifying matches,
3:05
so we'll talk about all that. Let's get this kicked off. Let's do
3:08
the easy stuff first. Let's talk about the NBA and NHL Playoffs and what's
3:13
going on with that going into their second round. All right, In the
3:16
NHL Playoffs, the second round is still going so far nobody has the advance
3:23
to the Eastern or Western Conference finals. And here it is. We've got
3:28
Dallas three games to two lead over Colorado in the West, and then,
3:35
of course, we got a two to two series in the West with Vancouver
3:38
and the Edmonton Oilers, so that one is in a two to two tie
3:46
right there. In the East, we've got the Florida Panthers up three games
3:51
to two over the Boston Ruins, and the New York Rangers up three to
3:54
two on Carolina, So that's where it lands. There's obviously three teams right
4:00
now that have a chance to end their series unless they go to game six
4:04
and seven. So we'll see next week if by the time we get to
4:08
next week, if we are already in the Western and Eastern Conference finals,
4:13
we should be by that point, but we'll go on from there. All
4:16
right, Let's add the NBA into the mix and see where the NBA we
4:20
are in the thick of it in the NBA playoffs as well. Right now
4:24
in the Western Conference, Dallas, surprisingly the number five seed, leads the
4:30
number one Oklahoma City Thunder three games to two in their best of seven series.
4:36
The next game of that series is to not tomorrow Saturday. Saturday Night
4:43
is gonna be their next game where the Mavericks actually have a chance to go
4:46
on to the Western Conference Finals. And then right now, the Denver Nuggets
4:51
lead the Minnesota Timberwolves three games to two and their best to seven in that
4:58
one team that has gone on all d In the East, the Boston Celtics
5:01
won four games to one over the Cleveland Canvaliers and they are moving on to
5:09
the Eastern Conference Finals for the second straight year. The other coin, we've
5:14
got the Pacers and the Knicks. The Knicks lead that series three games to
5:18
two. What a thing it's gonna be. If we can see the Knicks
5:25
and the Celtics going for the NBA Finals to see who gets in in the
5:29
East, that would be amazing. On the other side, I really think
5:31
it's gonna be Dallas in Denver. I do believe that the Mavericks are gonna
5:35
upset Oklahoma City. And I was reading a thread earlier where they said a
5:41
couple of fans Oklahoma City said, if we lose this series to Dallas,
5:45
we're our number five seed. They need a complete firing of everybody. Now,
5:49
this is coming from a fan base on a team that is the number
5:53
one seed in the West. Okay, they want people fired in if they
6:00
lose to Denver in the second round, or not to Denver to Dallas,
6:03
who's the number five seed. So you can see the Oklahoma City fans are
6:09
gone. Like people say, oh, well, at least your team makes
6:12
the playoffs, okay, but there comes a time where you need to actually
6:16
win a championship. Getting to the playoffs every year does not do anything for
6:21
your team. All that does is say we can make the playoffs and then
6:25
we're stagnant, just like in and I'm gonna bring this up. I'm a
6:30
Bears fan. Just like with the Green Bay Packers. They can win their
6:32
division with the best of them and they can get to the playoffs and then
6:38
they fold. So yeah, like I said, it doesn't always matter where
6:43
you get to. It matters if you win the rain. And that's where
6:47
Oklahoma City fans are right now. If they lose to Dallas, they want
6:50
a firing of either front office, coaches or all the above. So we'll
6:56
see what happens if Dallas wins. Good for Mark Cuban though I'm a big
6:59
Marquan. I love Cbe and it's cool to see his Mavericks be up three
7:04
games to two in the second round after winning their first round four games to
7:10
two over the Clippers, who even though they were the four seed of the
7:13
five seed, that's still big to beat a seed that's below you because that
7:16
means that you were able to get rid of home court advantage that that team
7:20
had going into that. So all right, let's move on now. Nothing
7:26
left to talk about with the NBA and the NHL playoffs, but we do
7:29
have some WNBA news. This season is officially started for the WNBA. Caitlin
7:34
Clark made her big debut the other night with Indiana and she lost her first
7:43
game. It was really sad. She did lose Tuesday night to the Sun
7:46
ninety two to seventy one. But Caitlin Clark did have twenty points, but
7:51
she did have ten turnovers. Now, what I'm seeing out of the nonfan
8:01
base, which really the thing I don't like about sports fans, especially men's
8:07
sports fans, is they want to see somebody fail. Like Kaylyn Clark is
8:13
this big thing coming out of college and people want her to fail. Why
8:18
would you wish failure on somebody for what? Reason. What reason do you
8:24
want Caitlin Clark to fail? Is it because you are mad that a woman
8:30
is making good money and not just in her NBAWNBA contract because then they make
8:35
peanuts? Okay, I'm talking her endorsement deals alone. She is in the
8:41
upper millions. Okay, does that make you jealous because you're flipping a burger
8:46
or you're working a warehouse job. Now I work a warehouse job too,
8:52
but I'm not jealous of people who are above my paygrade doing things that I
9:00
have. If I would have worked hard as a child and honed to craft
9:05
in some kind of sport, any of us could have made the NBA,
9:09
the NFL, hockey, baseball, soccer, wrestling. Any of us could
9:16
have did that. The reason we didn't is because we did not have the
9:20
drive to do that. You could have made it as an actor in your
9:24
life. You could have made it as a singer. You could have made
9:26
it just as a rock star playing guitar or drums. The reason you didn't
9:33
is because you did not have the drive to do that. If you did
9:35
have the drive, you would have made sure that you were one of the
9:39
best, not the best, but one of the best. Okay, because
9:43
we all know that we could go out there and we can play with the
9:46
best of them, and we can do the things that we need to do
9:50
to become successful. But sometimes you're just not good enough to be in the
9:58
pros because you didn't do something, because you didn't go above and beyond.
10:03
You didn't stay that extra hour to practice when everybody else stayed. Maybe you
10:07
went home after practice. Maybe that guy that made it, he stayed extra
10:11
thirty minutes. Maybe he stayed an extra hour. Maybe he went home and
10:15
instead of going home and eating dinner and watching TV and doing his homework,
10:18
maybe he did his homework and then he went outside under the lights and he
10:22
played basketball. Maybe she did the same thing growing up. The point is,
10:26
all these people who are jealous of Caitlin Clark and want her to fail,
10:31
or Angel Reese or any of the WNBA women, it's because you're misogynistic,
10:37
because you are a bigot, and it's because you don't like women.
10:41
I'm gonna say it. It had to be said. You can email me
10:45
the hate all you want, but it's true, and I don't want to
10:48
hear. Well, I'm married. It doesn't matter if you're married. You
10:50
could still hate a woman, you could still hate a woman. There are
10:54
black men, white men out there who are married to a different race but
11:01
still hate the rest of that race. It happens. It's wrong, but
11:05
it happens. The point is you don't like her because she's a female,
11:09
people calling her mel Gibson and all this other I see the hate. I
11:13
see the hate every day. I see the same hate for Caleb Williams because
11:18
he paints his fingernails. Because he paints his fingernails a different color, and
11:24
he has a pink phone case, and because he plays for USC and all
11:28
this other stuff, people don't like him. People want him to fail.
11:33
What kind of fan of a team wants their team to fail because there's a
11:39
new quarterback. If you're a fan of Justin Fields, that's great. I
11:45
love Fields. I still have his jersey hanging out. I'm gonna keep that
11:48
jersey, and you know why because I still love Justin Fields and I'm still
11:52
sad that he's not gonna be a part of the Chicago Bears this year.
11:54
But guess what time moves on. If you don't like it, and you're
11:58
in a Iowa State fan and you love Justin Fields, that's great. I
12:03
love JJ McCarthy. Doesn't mean I would have wanted him on my team,
12:07
but I love JJ McCarthy, and I hope he has success wherever he goes,
12:09
whether it's in Minnesota, just not against the Bears, but I do
12:13
hope that he has success out there. I don't want to see him fail
12:16
because he's on arrival. I don't want to see Jordan Love fail. I
12:20
don't like him, I don't like anything Packers, but I don't want him
12:24
to get hurt. I don't want him to go out and fail. I
12:26
want the Packers to lose so that my team gets ahead of them. But
12:31
I'm not saying, oh, I want Jordan Love to be the worst quarterback.
12:35
He could be the best quarterback on a shit team. I could care
12:37
less. And that's just how I feel. But the point is, I
12:43
don't want to see people fail. You should never want to see people have
12:46
failure. That's your own insecurities. Do you want Caleb Williams to fail?
12:52
You want Caitlyn Clark to fail, Angel Reese, any of the WNBA people,
12:56
any of the NFL players that just came out of college. That you
13:00
are a failure inside. And that is why you have to hate on other
13:05
people like them because you hate yourself. Just my little rant. But the
13:11
WNBA started now, we'll see. I will give Caitlyn Clark time. It
13:15
is a brand new thing. It was her first game in the pros,
13:18
in a regular season game that meant something. Of course, they only have
13:22
two preseason games. That's all they got. It's not like the regular pros
13:28
where they get like an entire two to three weeks of preseason and training camps
13:33
and all that. The WNBA does not get all that. They do the
13:37
draft and then a week later they're already in training camp and they're getting ready
13:41
for the preseason two games before they get ready to go into the regular season.
13:46
What time do you have to gel with your team you go? So
13:50
basically, the first year is your jail ure. What is okay? What
13:54
does a rookie coming in the WNBA have different than let's say, okay,
14:00
let's say right now Kaitlin Clark and a Caleb Williams because those are two of
14:05
my favorite rookies. Are Angel Reese, who's my other favorite rookie, you
14:09
know, player for the WNBA, for the Sky. What is the difference
14:15
between those two coming in NFL draft takes place in April. Many camps take
14:22
place in May and June, okay. Then you got the mandatory camps that
14:30
happened in like June, okay for all the teams. Then you get the
14:33
entire June and July to like hang out with your teammates and like start to
14:41
gel call little like off team practices on the field with each other like they've
14:46
been doing. Then you go to a real training camp now and at the
14:50
July you start training camp and then it goes until the first week of the
14:54
preseason. You got that. Then you got like what three games while the
14:58
Bears four this year because the Hall of Fame game will go over the entire
15:03
Bear schedule in my NFL segment. But we got all that right. Then
15:09
you got training camp, you got the preseason, you got three to four
15:13
weeks, depending if you play a Hall of Fame game. Then you got
15:16
the regular season. So from April till September when the regular season starts,
15:22
you've got all this time to gel with your new teammates. WNBA got one
15:28
week from their draft to their training camp. How do you give a team
15:35
time to gel together? So yes, when people say, oh, well,
15:39
Kaylyn Clark had ten turnovers. Most is the rookie. Blah blah blah
15:43
blah blah. Oh she only shot five for whatever, she had twenty points.
15:48
Okay, twenty points is good. I get what you were saying with
15:52
the turnovers and misshots, but the point is you're giving this poor woman who
15:56
had no time to jewel with their teammates and jumping right into the WNBA.
16:03
You're gonna give her cramp and say, oh, she's a bust. How
16:07
are you gonna call a bust after one game? Are you kidding me?
16:11
You're a bust. Your life was a bust. You're a nobody, you
16:17
flip burgers. No one cares about you except for maybe like a few family
16:19
members and maybe a few friends that you grew up with. Those are the
16:23
only ones that give a good damn about any of you that want to see
16:26
failure out of these rookies from all these sports. I don't like Bronnie James.
16:33
He only has his four a game, But you know what, if
16:36
he wants to come up in the NBA and a team wants to take a
16:38
chance on him, no matter what his name is, let him do it.
16:41
And I hope he has a successful career. He's not gonna be as
16:45
successful as his dad. Nobody's expecting him to score thirty points a game.
16:48
He's Bronnie, He's not lebron Okay, even though they share the same type
16:53
of name, that doesn't mean they're the same person. So no, if
16:59
I am any of these rookies, I'm gonna shove it back in all of
17:03
your faces. The Chicago Sky started last night, they ended up Let's see
17:08
what they ended up doing last night. The Chicago Sky ended up losing their
17:12
game last night to Let's See the Wings eighty seven to seventy nine. Angel
17:22
Reese had her first game for US, and she ended up with ten points
17:26
or twelve points, eight rebounds, and one assist. Not bad in twenty
17:32
six minutes. She didn't even play the whole game, so not even really
17:34
close, because a bunch of other people in like thirty four minutes. So
17:38
we'll see what happens. Give these women time, just like you would give
17:41
men time. Do not start calling people busts and pointing fingers from your couch
17:48
while you're eating your chicken wings and drinking your beer while they're out making money
17:52
playing a real sport, while you're at home playing pocket pool. Okay,
17:56
we don't need all this, We don't need the negativity out of fans like
18:02
that. You aren't even real fans. In fact, most of you probably
18:06
just watch to see them fail. Well, guess what, every time you
18:07
watch the game, you're giving them ratings. You're helping them to become bigger
18:12
and better of an organization and be and break them away from the stigma of
18:18
what the NBA does for them. So go ahead, keep watching and hoping
18:22
failure, because you're actually gonna help the success of the WNBA, not even
18:26
realizing you're doing it. All right, let's move on to the ww King
18:33
of the Ring and Queen of the Ring qualifiers. Let's see where everybody is
18:37
on that. That is actually next Saturday, not this Saturday, but a
18:41
week from Saturday in Saudi Arabia. So let's see how that goes and see
18:45
who's in so far and where we're at. All right, So the WWE
18:52
King and Queen of the Ring Tournament will take place next Saturday, May twenty
18:56
fifth, from the JEDTNA Super in Jetta, Saudi Arabia. Wanna make sure
19:04
I'm right? Yeah? All right? So as so it says, It
19:08
says Jenna Saudi Arabia the Jetta Superdome twenty twenty four King of the Ring matches
19:14
so far non tournament is the undisputed WWE Championship and United States Championship Cody Roads
19:22
versus Logan Paul winner take all, So whoever wins that match will end up
19:29
taking the championships both. So I see this going into a drugs I don't
19:36
think Logan Paul is gonna lose to Cody, and I know Cody's not losing
19:41
the Logan, So I really feel this is gonna go into a draw.
19:45
It's gonna be like a big disqualification. I think someone's gonna interfere in it
19:49
and that it'll be over. Uh So, yeah, that's that. And
19:52
then Women's World Championship Becky Lynch versus Live Morgan for the title. That's gonna
19:59
be good. And then we have the Intercontinental Championship triple Threat match Sammy's aim
20:04
was taking on Chad Gable and Bronson Reid. We will also have the King
20:10
of the Ring finals for the King and the Queen of the Ring. Here's
20:12
how that's been going so far. So for the King of the Ring,
20:15
bracket for the first round, Guth defeated Seamus I, Judd Drougnoff defeated Ricoshet,
20:22
Jay Uso defeated Finn Baller, Randy Yorton defeated aj Styles, Tomatonga defeated
20:30
Angelo Dawkins, Carmelo Hayes defeated Baron Corbin, La Knight defeated Santos Escobar,
20:37
and Kofi Kingston defeated Ray Mysterio. Now, as you can see, in
20:41
the first round, we were minus Xavier Woods, who was not in this
20:45
tournament. Even though he is technically the defending King of the Ring right now,
20:51
he is not in this tournament. So Kofe is in instead. So
20:56
maybe Kofe wins this one. Maybe it's somebody else we'll see In the quarterfinals,
21:02
Gun Third defeated Kovid Kingston. So there you go. I just wanted
21:06
to give drama for that. Jay Musso defeated Ija Dragnoff. Randy Orton versus
21:11
Carmelo Hayes takes place tomorrow night on SmackDown and La Knight This is weird?
21:22
Wait is that? Get this? Says? La Knight defeats Tama Tonga on
21:26
SmackDown May seventeenth, So that's wrong, But is that a look into the
21:33
future of that show. This is Yahoo's Sports that I'm getting this off of.
21:37
Do they know something we don't know? Or was that a misprint?
21:41
Because it is Randy Orton, Carmelo Hayes and La Knight and Tomatonga. Tomorrow
21:45
night on SmackDown, semifinals is already set on the Raw brand and that is
21:49
Goomther versus Jay Lusso. So the winner of that will end up facing the
21:57
winner of the either l A. Knight, Randy Orton, Tomatanga or Camarlo
22:03
Hayes' semifinal, which would be I believe next week on SmackDown, So we'll
22:11
see. We'll see who's gonna go on and then Queen of the Ring bracket.
22:17
First round, Eo Sky defeated Italia Lara Volkra defeated Dakota Kai, Zoe
22:23
Stark defeated Ivy Nile Biaka bel Air defeated Candice Larray. Jade Cargill defeated Piper
22:30
Nevin, Nia Jacks defeated Naomi Tiffany Stratton defeated Mi Chen. Shana Basler defeated
22:38
Maxine Dupree. In the quarterfinals on Raw, EO Sky defeated Shana Basler,
22:45
Lara Valkri defeated Zoe Stark. We still have Jade Cargill versus Naya Jacks and
22:51
Biaka bel Air versus Tiffany Stratton on SmackDown tomorrow night. Now would this not
22:56
be funny to see Jay Cargill and Bianca face each other in the semifinals for
23:03
the winner to go on to face the raw person in the Queen of the
23:07
Ring. I don't think that's gonna happen. I think Tiffy beats Bianca,
23:12
and I think Jade beats Naya and then Jane I think is gonna go on,
23:15
But it might be Tiffy. Tiffy might do it, but I can't
23:18
see. Because Jake Cargill and Bianca just won the tag team titles together,
23:22
I can't see them having a feud over the Queen of the Ring right now.
23:29
So yeah, I do believe that Bianca loses Tiffany, and I think
23:33
Jade Cargill will lose to or will beat Daya Jacks. So we're gonna see
23:37
Jade and Tiffany on the SmackDown Finals to see who goes on. So what
23:41
will happen now? Is we will see EO Sky or Laura going on and
23:49
winning Monday night and moving on to Saturday next week, they will await the
23:53
winner of the four women that are left, so it'll be a semifinal next
23:59
Friday night on SmackDown. Now that's only technically the day before Jenna, but
24:03
you know, they most likely are filming a double SmackDown. I believe that
24:11
they're doing a double SmackDown either tonight. I think it's gonna be tonight.
24:15
I think they're gonna record two Smackdowns because they're not gonna do it unless it's
24:19
live in Jenna. They might be bearded from Jenna, Saudi Arabia next week,
24:23
so we'll see. But yeah, so that is how the King and
24:27
Queen of the Ring finals are going. Now let's get into the meat of
24:32
potatoes. Everybody's excited. The NFL schedule was officially released. Now, obviously
24:40
this is a Chicago based show. I got a lot of Chicago listeners,
24:44
so we're gonna go over the Chicago Bears before anything else. So let's get
24:48
into the schedule for the Bears for the preseason and regular season of the twenty
24:52
twenty four Caleb Williams Era All right here we go. Now, I'm getting
25:00
more and more excited for the Bears season as we get closer, as major
25:04
milestones in the NFL come out and get done, I'm getting more excited about
25:10
the season. I'll be honest. When Justin Fields was traded, I was
25:14
upset. I wasn't happy about it. I knew Caleb Williams was most likely
25:18
the goal, either him or Jade Daniels. I really wanted Jayde and Daniels
25:23
over Caleb Williams all the way up until the draft. Even till the day
25:26
of. I was like, Eh, I think it's gonna be Caleb,
25:29
but I'd rather be Jayde Daniels. But Caleb grew on me. Okay.
25:36
When I first talked about him, I was like, Oh, he's a
25:37
cry baby. He crying in his mom's bosoms. Yeah he did. Am
25:41
I a fan of that? Not really, but to each there. Okay,
25:47
I wouldn't have been crying to my mom's bosoms, but that's me.
25:49
I don't cry that often unless it's something that really gets me. But then
25:56
again, I've never played a pro sport or a college work with that kind
26:00
of emotion, So maybe I would if I was a pro athlete, So
26:06
I look at it. When people were like disparaging me for those comments,
26:08
I was like, yeah, you know what, I looked at it.
26:11
Okay, I've never played sports like that. I've never had that rush that
26:15
adrenaline and then lose and then have to deal with the fact that I lost
26:18
a big game. Okay, and I wasn't able to lead my team to
26:22
the victory. So possibly that would have been me. Okay. The painting
26:30
the fingernails never really bothered me. Back in the day, we had a
26:33
man named Dennis Rodman here in Chicago who was a proponent of coloring his nails,
26:38
okay, dyeing his hair, wearing wigs, marrying himself in a wedding
26:42
dress. Like, come on, if we could deal with Dennis Rodman and
26:47
win chips, we could deal with Caleb Williams with a pink phone case and
26:51
all that. Now, the last thing that people say, well, he
26:53
comes from USC. I'm gonna go into that in the next couple of weeks.
26:57
Why these people bring up colleges are just stupid and don't know what how
27:03
sports work. Okay, when you bring up, oh, well, he
27:07
played for North Carolina. To a point, I get it. I don't
27:12
necessarily wouldn't. I'm glad. Drake May obviously is not doing very well in
27:18
his rookie mini camps. He's not really adjusting well to NFL. And this
27:22
is a mini camp. Okay, this isn't even a real training camp yet.
27:26
Maybe there is something with North Carolina quarterbacks. Trubisky struggled too, so
27:32
we'll see. But we'll see where Drake bans up when he gets his retirement.
27:37
So here we go. NFL schedule is released. Caleb Williams era is
27:41
officially underway. He's already in a Bear's jersey. He's doing the Bear Club,
27:45
which I think is cool. I don't care if people say I think
27:48
it's cool. Look, he is showing his wanting to be here because for
27:55
so many months people are like, Caleb Williams doesn't want to play for Chicago.
27:59
He already said he's not come into Chicago if he gets drafted here.
28:02
Blah blah blah. Colin Coward running his little mouth thinking that he knows everything
28:06
because he's on the radio. I'm on a podcast, dude. I'm on
28:10
the same level as you. The only difference is you're all over well,
28:12
actually we're both all over the world, but you get paid a lot more
28:17
money than me. But you also run your mouth about things you know nothing
28:19
about. At Caleb Williams camp called you out on it and made you look
28:25
like the fool that you are. But we do love that you're so supportive
28:29
of Caleb Williams being in Chicago now. But at the same time, dude,
28:33
you ran your mouth and you got called out for it, and that's
28:36
what happens in media. But here we go. NFL schedules released. Preseason
28:41
for the Bears kicks off Thursday, August. First, we have the Hall
28:44
of Fame Game with the Houston Texans, so we actually will see the Houston
28:48
Texans twice in the twenty twenty four campaign. The first one will be in
28:52
a preseason game. I'm sure we will see Caleb Williams. Now, we
28:57
may see a little less of him in that game because that is not an
29:00
official preseason game. It is the Hall of Fame game, So I don't
29:04
know exactly how eber Flus is gonna want to go about that. He'll probably
29:08
start Caleb Williams, but I don't think CABE's gonna get a lot of starts
29:12
until the first official preseason game, which is literally nine days later on Saturday,
29:18
August tenth at the Buffalo Bills at twelve pm. That is gonna be
29:23
a good game. I'm sure we're gonna see a decent amount of Caleb Williams
29:27
in that. I think that if eber Flues is smart, he is not
29:30
gonna do what he did with Justin Fields, and that was Sitfields out for
29:34
most of the preseason and only let him play a sporadic amount. This guy
29:38
is a rookie. He needs all the reps he can get. A Doom
29:42
Day more even Keenan Allen, these guys need to gel before the season starts.
29:48
The only way you're gonna gell them as a team is if they play
29:52
at least a half. And I know people wanna say, what if they
29:56
get hurt? What if they get hurt in training camp? Should they never
30:00
be a training camp? Should they not practice? Like, come on,
30:04
you can't go by that because the fact of the matter is if they're conditioning
30:08
well in the offseason, they should not get hurt that early in the season.
30:14
And we already know Keenan Allen, Romadinje and Dj Moore have all been
30:22
working out and catching passes in non camp affiliated things with Caleb Williams, so
30:30
he is already called practices that aren't even verified by the NFL. They're just
30:36
meeting out a field and throwing the ball to each other. Now, that
30:40
is team camaraderie. That is a team that wants to say last year we
30:44
won seven would fields invagent this year? Caleb, you're taking us to ten
30:48
to twelve wins? All right? Third game of the preseason Saturday, August
30:52
twenty seventh or August seventeenth, sorry, against the Cincinnati Bengals at home.
31:00
Another good one. I'm not giving wins and losses on this yet. I'm
31:03
gonna do my early Bears predictions next week on the season. I'm not gonna
31:10
do that today because I'm gonna go game by game and I'm gonna talk about
31:14
why I think it's gonna happen. But not today today, we're just going
31:15
over the schedules. And then Thursday, August twenty second, the last game
31:22
at the Kansas City Chiefs. That's gonna be a seven o'clock start on a
31:26
Thursday night, and that's August twenty second, so we're ready for that.
31:30
Then the season kicks off a few weeks later, Sunday, September eighth.
31:36
We're ready, let's go. Cale Williams era officially begins in the regular season
31:41
when he kicks it off at home against the Tennessee Titans at noon on the
31:45
lake Front. Great game. Awesome week two September fifteenth of the Sunday at
31:52
the Houston Texans. That's a Sunday night football game on NBC. The week
31:56
after that, Sunday, September twenty second, at the Indianapolis Colts. It's
32:01
a nude game. Week after that is Sunday, September twenty ninth. We
32:07
got the Los Angeles Rams coming to Soldier Field at noon on Fox. Week
32:12
after that, Sunday, October sixth, the day after my birthday, the
32:16
day after my forty fourth birthday, it's gonna be the Carolina Panthers and the
32:21
Chicago Bears on the lake Front. DJ Moore's old team, the team that
32:25
gifted us. Caleb Williams and DJ Moore will come to Chicago to play us
32:30
on October sixth at twelve pm on Fox. So good game, and that's
32:35
my birthday weekend Sunday, October thirteenth in London. That's right, we go
32:40
across the pond, and we played the Jacksonville Jaguars in London on the NFL
32:45
Network at eight thirty am. So Chicago fans, we're gonna have to get
32:50
up early for that one. But that's okay because the next week after that,
32:54
Week seven, the Bears at La Bai week So after we watch that
32:58
early game, our Bears game for two weeks. A week after that,
33:02
they kick it off on Sunday, October twenty seventh, Halloween weekend with the
33:07
Washington Commanders at Washington, so we will get to see the two top draft
33:13
picks in the NFL draft this year going head to head with each other,
33:17
well, Caleb Williams and Jane Daniels. Sunday, November third, on CBS
33:23
at three oh five, it's the Bears at the Arizona Cardinals. That's only
33:29
one of a couple of late games. In fact, the only besides Sunday
33:32
Night Football and Monday Night Football I'm counting a late game is like a three
33:37
o'clock start. We only have two three o'clock starts, a three oh five
33:40
and a three twenty five. That's not bad. And then the week after
33:45
that, Sunday, November tenth, against the New England Patriots at home at
33:50
Soldier Field. This starts a three game stretch at home. Week after that,
33:53
Sunday, November seventeenth, the first time we will see a Division foe
34:00
is the Green Bay Packers at noon on Fox on the Lake Funk. That's
34:04
gonna be awesome. And then the week right after that, we got the
34:07
Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, November twenty fourth, at noon at Hominge on Fox.
34:14
And then the week after that a short week because we got from a
34:16
Sunday game to a Thursday game after Detroit Lions eleven thirty am on CBS.
34:23
So we have three division games in a row after not playing the division the
34:28
first ten weeks of the season, we will have three in a row.
34:32
We have the Packers, the Vikings, and then the Lions three in a
34:36
row against them, the Lions finishing it off with the Bears on a nationally
34:42
televised game for Thanksgiving. Awesome. Can't wait. But is that next week
34:47
I'll go into my wins and losses. And then the week after that Sunday,
34:52
December eighth, at the San Francisco forty nine Ers. That's a three
34:55
to twenty five start on Fox. Week after that, we got Monday Night
34:59
FI Football against the Vikings in Minnesota on ABC at seven fifteen. And then
35:09
Sunday, December twenty second, we've got the Detroit Lions at home on Fox.
35:16
And then another short week because we play on Thursday, December twenty sixth.
35:22
We play Thursday Night Football on Prime Video against the Seattle Seahawks at home
35:28
in Chicago on the Lake Front on the day after Christmas. Imagine that.
35:34
Oh my lord, that game's gonna be off the chain. It's gonna be
35:37
cold, it'll probably be some snow maybe in the year because it's right after
35:40
Christmas. We'll just have Santa bringing us all our gifts. The only thing
35:45
I want from Santa this year is a Chicago Bears Division championship. That's what
35:50
I want to make it happen, Santa. But yeah, and then we
35:52
finish off the season on either Saturday Sunday of January fourth or fifth against Green
36:00
Bay Packers at green Bay. That could be for the division, that could
36:04
be for a wildcard spot for either team or both, because remember there's extra
36:08
wildcard spots, so we'll see. So that is the Chicago Bears schedule for
36:14
this year. It is gonna be off the chain. I think everybody is
36:19
gonna have a good time with that. I think that, you know,
36:23
this is what we need. The Bears need this kind of schedule. I'm
36:28
excited. Start off against Tennessee. You don't play your division for the first
36:31
of the ten games. That gives Caleb Williams time to get adjusted before he
36:35
has to get thrown into these division games that really mean something because they are
36:39
division games that you can play twice a year. Here's the international schedule for
36:44
twenty twenty four for the NFL this year. In Si Paulo, Brazil.
36:52
We're gonna have on September sixth, so the day after the NFL kicks off,
36:57
because remember the NFL kicks off on Thursday with the Kansas City Chiefs and
37:01
the Baltimore Ravens in a rematch from the ANFC championship game. But the next
37:08
day, on a Friday, this is gonna be on Amazon Prime. It's
37:13
the day after the Packers will play the Philadelphia Eagles in their first game of
37:17
the season right there in Sampowe. Actually it's gonna be on Peacock I was
37:23
wrong, sorry, not there. It's gonna be on Peacock. Then we've
37:28
got three London games this year on the docket. October sixth he got the
37:32
Jets of the Minnesota Vikings October thirteenth. Of course we talked about the Jaguars
37:37
and the Bears, and then the week after that the Jaguars play again,
37:44
this time against the New England Patriots. So my take is that we are
37:50
going to see in London. We're gonna see the Jacksonville Jaguars not even come
37:55
home after the Bears and not play. They're gonna stay there most likely because
38:00
a week later they will play at Wembley against the New England Patriots, so
38:05
that's big. And then Munich, Germany November tenth and will be the New
38:09
York Giants and the Carolina Panthers. Why why would you take Carolina into an
38:16
international game when they have nothing like that? Was I think that's a waist
38:22
right there. I'll take the Giants. I would take the Giants, but
38:24
I would not take the Carolina Panthers. That's a mistake. That is horrible.
38:30
I don't even know what they're thinking with it. All. Right,
38:32
now here we go. This is the list of all the Chicago or not
38:39
Chicago This is the twenty twenty four NFL schedule Monday night football games. So
38:45
for all you Monday night football fans, here's the full list of games for
38:47
the entire year. Okay, so we've got September ninth, we're gonna kick
38:52
off with the Jets at San Francisco in week one. Week two, we've
38:59
Gottember sixteenth. We've got the Atlanta Falcons in Philadelphia. September twenty third,
39:05
it's a double header. We've got the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Buffalo Bills,
39:12
and then we got the Washington Commanders and the Beatles September thirtieth. We've got
39:16
a double header in week four, Tennessee Titans and the Dolphins, and then
39:22
we have the Seahawks and the Lions. Okay, then we've got October seventh.
39:28
We've got the Saints and Kansas City Chiefs. October fourteenth, and Week
39:32

40:34
Green Bay Packers. And then December thirtieth, we've got the Lions in San
40:37
Francisco. January fourth, of week eighteen, it's two be determined double header.
40:45
The Bears and Packers could be flexed to that game if it comes down
40:52
to it. We may see Bears and Packers on January fourth, which is
40:57
funny because January fourth is a Saturday. They're gonna put Monday Night football on
41:00
a Saturday. But that's gonna be primetime. That's why. All right,
41:04
So let's look up NBC's Sunday Night Football and see who's all playing on Sunday
41:12
nights. All right, so here we go. Now, obviously, Thursday
41:16
Night Football will kick off week one, but only on You're gonna see the

There will be a Thursday night game. It'll be Black Friday instead the

43:01
at Detroit. Week fifteen December twelfth, we've got the La Rams taking on
43:08
San Francisco forty nine Ers. Week sixteen, December nineteenth, we've got the
43:15
Browns and the Bengals. And then the final game of the season that will
43:20
be on Prime is gonna be on Week seventeen, now week eighteen, but
43:23
seventeen, and that's gonna be the Seahawks at the Bears to close out Thursday
43:28
Night football. Also, they do have an exclusive game on the wildcard,
43:31
but that's to be determined obviously. And then last, but not least,
43:36
we've got our schedule for let's see Sunday Night football. We should have one
43:43
here, mark your calendars. Sunday Night Football schedule is here, here we
43:52
go. Okay, so the NFL kickoff game. Oh wait, you know
43:59
what, Baltimore and Kansas City. It's gonna be a Sunday night. It's
44:01
gonna be an NBC game this year. So that's why there was no Week
44:06
one Thursday Night Football game. I thought they just didn't mark it down because
44:08
we already knew. But nope, this year, Sunday Night Football is going
44:13
to kickoff on a Thursday night, Friday, and Sunday, so you have
44:19
to see it three times on NBC Networks. So we got the NFL kickoff
44:23
game. That's thunder Oh yeah, we got some thunderstorms coming in. Let's
44:28
see NFL kickoff game. We've got Baltimore in Kansas City, NFL Brazil.
44:32
The next day, we've got Green Bay and Philadelphia on Peacock. And then
44:37
Week one Sunday Night Football, we've got LA and Detroit, so the Rams
44:43
and the Lions. Week two it's the Bears at the Texans. Week three
44:46
is Kansas City at Atlanta. Week four, we've got Baltimore at home taken
44:55
on Buffalo. Week five, we got Dallas and Pittsburgh. Week six,
45:04
we've got the Bengals and New York Giants. Week seven, it's gonna be
45:07
the Jets and the Steelers. Week eight, the Cowboys and San Francisco.
45:12
Week nine, Jags and Eagles. Week ten, Lions and Texans. Week
45:16
eleven, the Colts and the Jets. Week twelve, we've got the Eagles
45:22
and the Rams. Thanksgiving Night, we'll have the Dolphins and the Packers.
45:28
Week thirteen, we've got San Francisco and All Buffalo, So we have two
45:37
Sunday night football games Thanksgiving Night and that. So yeah, there we go.
45:43
The week fourteen, we have the Chargers and the Kansas City Chiefs.
45:49
Week fifteen, Green Bay and Seahawks. Week sixteen, we've got the Texans
45:55
and Kansas City. Week sixteen, we also have Tampa Bay in Dallas.
46:04
And then week seventeen, we'll have the Dolphins and the Browns. Now Week
46:07
eighteen it says to be determined, So I'm guessing they're gonna flex a game,
46:12
maybe the NBC or Peacock for whoever is in a wild card hunt or
46:17
in the hunt for their division. So big games popping, really big games
46:22
popping. Here we go. NFL season is about to get underway in a
46:25
few months. If you think about it, We're in May right now.
46:30
We're in May sixteen, so we're halfway through May. If we get all
46:34
the way to June, July, July, you got training camp, August,
46:37
you got preseason, September regular season, we only have two more months,
46:45
two and a half months until there's actual real football on our TV.
46:50
Again, not saying that the XFL league thing that's been going on hasn't been
46:54
great. I've watched a little bit of games here and there, but I'm
46:59
basically busy, and during the summer it's hard to watch football and get into
47:04
football mode till like August, when you know preseason starts, and even then
47:07
really until September when it kicks off for real, that's when you really get
47:13
fully into it. So yeah, let's go into that. But yeah,
47:16
that's great. Now. I wanted to go over something that I saw just
47:21
being a Caleb Williams being a Chicago Bear. This is a very scary stand
47:24
and everybody sees this every year during every Bear's game, but until you really
47:29
read through it and see it, it really blows your mind. QB's to
47:34
start a game for the Bear since the year two thousand. Okay, this
47:37
is since the year two thousand, Cave mcdowald nine games, Shane Matthews eight,
47:45
Jim Miller twenty three, Chris Chandler thirteen, Henry Burris won, Cornell
47:51
Stewart seven, Craig Crimsall five, Chad Hutchinson five, Jonathan Quinn three,
48:00
Rex Grossman in thirty one, Kyle Orton thirty three, Brian Greasy's six,
48:06
Jay Cutler one hundred and two. He's the most was Jay Culor, Todd
48:14
Collins one, Caleb Haney four, Josh McCowan seven, Jason Campbell one,
48:22
Jimmy Clausin two, Mad Barkley's six, Brian Hoyer five, Mike Glennon four,
48:30
Mitchell Trubisky fifty seven, Chase Daniels three, Nick Foles eight, Andy
48:38
Dalton six, Nathan Peterman one, Trevor Simeon won, Justin Field's thirty eight
48:45
games, and Tyson Bagen four. This is the list of qbs to start
48:52
a game for the Bears since two thousand. That is a scary step,
48:57
and it gets scary the more you think about the fact that the Bears have
49:00
not had a legitimate starter since Jay Cutler. I mean, you can look
49:07
at Mitch Trubisky and Justin fields. But even them, it's less than sixty.
49:12
It's only double digits, not triple digits. So yes, that is
49:17
a scary thought that this is what we've done. This is why we really,
49:23
really really want Caleb Williams is a number one pick to come out and
49:28
be that guy. We are putting our hopes out of the USC Starter.
49:32
We are putting our hopes on Caleb Williams, bear claw and all. I
49:37
will take a picture of today with my bear Clod. I am in full
49:42
support. It's coming down rain. I love it. What a great show
49:46
this is, this is Chicago weather. I love it. Feel in the
49:51
midst of the rain as I'm doing my show. But yeah, like I
49:54
said, QB's to start. This is why we need you, Caleb.
50:00
We need Caleb Brims. We need you to be the shining star. We
50:05
need you to be the guy, and I believe you will be the guy.
50:12
Scary thought, just a scary thought when you look at guys like Mahomes
50:15
and you look at guys you know, other starters like Brett Farm and all
50:25
them, every single one that have made it this far, and we're always
50:34
the starter unless they were hurt. But yeah, that's a scary thought.
50:37
Now here's a funny thing. And I only have the NFC East, North,
50:42
South, and West. I don't have the AFC on this. NFL
50:45
fans spending averages by teams. This is a funny thing to look at.
50:51
And I found this through a thing that I was on where someone commented that
50:57
the Chicago Bears this is why we support our team so much because we're always
51:00
drunk. But it's actually funny. This is a breakdown of concessions, alcohol,
51:07
and merchandise that is spent and who is the top per you know,
51:13
who's like spends the most. And it's actually funny because Chicago spends the second
51:20
most in concessions, just to Los Angeles. We spend the most in alcohol
51:31
the moment, we spend the most in alcohol, and I'm looking now we
51:38
spend the second most in merchandise. The most of merchandise is Tampa Bay.
51:44
Now I'm wondering if a lot of that was Tom Brady and grown jerseys when
51:47
they took over. That's what I'm thinking. Possibly, but we'll see.
51:52
It doesn't break down any of that, but that that's what I'm thinking.
51:55
But here we go. So we'll start out. We'll finish with the North,
52:00
will finish with the Bears. But let's do this at FC East.
52:05
The Dallas Cowboys and concessions. They spend one hundred and seventeen to point two
52:09
seven in concessions. This is the fan spending. This is spending by the
52:17
average fan. Okay, how much they spend forty three dollars and sixty two
52:22
cents in alcohol and one hundred and eighty nine dollars and seventy six cents in
52:27
merchandise. The New York Giants spend one hundred and eighteen dollars and four cents
52:35
the most in their division in concessions, forty three dollars and forty eight cents
52:39
in alcohol, and they average one hundred and thirty two point fifty in merchandise.
52:46
Dallas Cowboys fans spend the most in merchandise at a game, and then
52:52
in Philadelphia they spend one hundred and one dollars and nineteen cents in concessions,
52:58
thirty seven dollars and al call, and one hundred and fourteen dollars in merchandise.
53:04
The Washington Commanders spend one hundred and twelve dollars and in concessions forty three
53:12
dollars in alcohol a game and eighty dollars in merchandise. So obviously people aren't
53:17
buying a ton of merch and if they are, they're not buying the big
53:21
stuff. They're buying smaller stuff. So because if you're spending eighty dollars in
53:24
merchandise, you buy buy a couple of shirts, but you're not buying jerseys.
53:29
Jerseys at a game are probably like one hundred and twenty it's one hundred
53:31
and fifty dollars, maybe more, depending on who you're buying. The NFC
53:37
South, the Atlanta Falcons in concessions eighty nine dollars and eighty five cents,
53:44
thirty six dollars and sixty two cents in alcohol, and one hundred and fourteen
53:49
dollars in merchandise per game. The Carolina Panthers sixty one dollars in concessions,
53:55
thirteen dollars in alcohol. Soly not a lot of drinkers going on, and
54:02
not a lot of drinking per fan if you think about it, because that's
54:06
what probably one drink at least in a Chicago bar, that's one drink at
54:10
one hundred and four dollars in merchandise. New Orleans Saints ninety seven dollars in
54:16
concessions. They are the most in concessions in their division, thirty five dollars
54:22
in alcohol. Alcohol is won by Atlanta with thirty six dollars, although nope,
54:28
I'm wrong. Next one and one hundred and nineteen in merchandise. The
54:31
Tampa Bay Buccaneers eighty six dollars in concessions, forty dollars in alcohol, so
54:40
they're spending the most to drink at the game, and then two hundred and
54:45
twenty eight dollars in merch per game. This is the average, say average
54:51
spender. This is what they're spending when they go to a game. In
54:54
the NFC West, the Arizona Cardinals in concessions spent about one hundred and fifteen
55:00
thirty seven dollars in alcohol at two hundred and twenty eight dollars in merchandise.
55:09
Wow, they have the most in merchandise in their divisions. They have the
55:16
second most in merch in the entire NFC, so that's crazy. Los Angeles
55:25
Rams spend one hundred and seventy six dollars in concessions. Food's expensive in LA,
55:30
fifty one in alcohol, and one hundred and eighty one in merchandise,
55:32
So people are spending more food than merch They're probably buying their merch other places.
55:37
They sell merch at Walmart, they sell it in stores, so you
55:42
obviously don't have to get it at the game. You're gonna spend more money
55:45
at the game than you win anywhere else. But yeah, so that's crazy.
55:50
And then San Francisco forty nine ers one hundred and thirty three dollars in
55:53
concessions, fifty nine dollars in alcohol, which is the most in alcohol in
56:00
the entire division at one hundred and fifty three dollars in merch The most for
56:06
eating obviously would be Los Angeles, and the most in drinking goes to San
56:10
Francisco. The most in merchandise goes to Arizona the Cardinals. And finally,
56:16
last but not least, is the NFC North where the Bears play. Will
56:21
go with Minnesota first, they spend sixty four dollars on concessions, thirty three
56:25
dollars on alcohol, and seventy eight dollars on merchandise. Green Bay packers ninety
56:31
eight dollars at the concession stand, forty dollars in alcohol, and they're spending
56:37
ninety nine dollars on merch the Detroit Lions ninety three dollars in concessions, thirty
56:44
eight dollars in alcohol, one hundred and fifty nine dollars in merchandise. That's
56:49
a pretty good amount. Obviously, the cheapest place to eat is obviously Minnesota.
56:52
So if you're gonna go to a Bears game, go to Minnesota and
56:55
watch them play the Vikings. You can eat for a lot cheaper merchandise too.
57:00
That's ridiculous. So people aren't buying jerseys, They're most likely they're buying
57:04
stuff like T shirts, you know, sometuffing like that, maybe football's stuff
57:09
like that. And then of course the Chicago Bears, my Bears. When
57:14
you go to a Bears game, on average, you spend about one hundred
57:16
and fifty two dollars on concessions. Now is that for a family or is
57:22
that for one person? Because I don't know anybody in just concessions who's pending
57:27
one hundred and fifty to a game. I can see maybe if you're feeding
57:30
your whole family there, you probably get close to that. They'll probably do
57:34
less, but that's about if you're eating good there. Yeah, you're probably
57:39
spending that fifty eight dollars an alcohol, which is the most in the NFC
57:45
North, and also one hundred and ninety three in merch So we in Chicago
57:51
have the biggest concessions in the North, the most alcohol in the North,
57:55
and the most merchandise on the North. So people that are saying the Bears
58:00
are horrmone, you just don't like them, because you just don't like them,
58:02
they do very very well. Well, let's look through this list.
58:08
So the most in concession spent is in Los Angeles one hundred and fifty six.
58:15
Chicago comes in second at one fifty two. So if you go to
58:19
Los Angeles Rams game, you're gonna spend the most in the NFC to eat,
58:23
the most to drink in the NFC. Now that is not the Bears.
58:28
That is hold on, there's somebody higher than us. Fifty nine dollars
58:34
in San Francisco to drink, So yeah, we're the second most, yeah
58:40
alcohol, but yeah, the most is actually San Francisco at fifty nine.
58:45
At merchandise, it is definitely not us. The biggest merch sellars is Tampa
58:52
Bay and two hundred and twenty eight dollars and ninety five cents, followed by
58:58
the Arizona Cardinals who are two hundred and twenty eight dollars and forty eight cents.
59:02
So by forty cents, people are paying more money for merchandise in LA.
59:07
So yeah, are in LA in Tampa Bay. So that is the
59:12
average spending. That is crazy. So it does cost a lot to go
59:16
to a game, but damn. And then one more last thing about football.
59:23
These are the notable college football Week one matchups this year. On Thursday,
59:30
you're gonna see North Dakota State. This is Thursday, August twenty ninth,
59:34
taken on Colorado. Saturday will have Clemson August thirty first, taken on
59:38
Georgia Miami. You University of Miami at Florida, the Gators on August thirty
59:45
first, and Notre Dame at Texas A and M on August thirty first,
59:51
which is also Saturday. Sunday, the big notable game USC at LSU,
59:54
which is actually funny because now they no longer have Cale Williams and Jane Daniels,
1:00:01
so now we'll see the next crop of quarterbacks and how they do.
1:00:05
And the big, other big one is Boston College at Florida State on Monday
1:00:09
night. It's a football game on September second. So those are your notable
1:00:14
college football Week one matchups for this year. Alright, sports is done,
1:00:19
Let's move on to movie box office. Let's see what's going on in the
1:00:23
box office last week. All right, so last week at the box office,
1:00:29
here was the top ten coming to a. Number ten was Abigail.
1:00:32
It did a weekend gross of one point one million. It's made twenty five
1:00:37
million in the four weeks it's been out. Number nine, Star Wars Episode
1:00:40
one, The Phantom Menace stayed in the theaters for a second week. It
1:00:45
did one point four million. It's done a total gross of four hundred and
1:00:49
eighty seven million dollars since it first came out years and years ago. But
1:00:53
this was in two weeks of release. It's been out for two weeks in
1:00:58
the movie theater. Number eight was Civil War. It did one point eight
1:01:01
million dollars sixty five million gross at the box office in five weeks. Kung
1:01:08
Fu Panda four did one point eight million, still going strong, one hundred
1:01:13
and ninety one million and ten weeks. Unsung Heroes and its third week did
1:01:19
two point five million at the box office. Eighteen million total gross. Godzilla
1:01:23
Kong the New Empires still in the top five amazing two point six million last
1:01:30
weekend, one hundred and ninety two million at the box office in seven weeks.
1:01:35
The movie Taro did three point four million last weekend and number four.
1:01:40
It's done thirteen million gross in two weeks. The Zendaya movie Challengers did four
1:01:49
point four million in its third week, thirty nine million so far in the
1:01:52
three weeks it's been open. The Fall Guy still came in number two this
1:01:57
week weekend gross a fourteen million. Total gross are fifty two million and two
1:02:00
weeks. Not horrible, not great. Don't think the budget could have been
1:02:05
that big for that. It didn't look like it'd be a huge budget,
1:02:07
and we'll see what it finally does at the end. And then number one
1:02:12
in its first week was The Kingdom of the Planet of the Eighth. That's
1:02:15
right, that did fifty eight million in its first week. For the weekend
1:02:20
gross total gross is sixty nine million dollars already for the Kingdom of the Planet
1:02:27
of the Apes. So definitely go to movies to go check out, go
1:02:30
see any of those, plus anything new that comes out this week. Well
1:02:34
that what comes out starting tomorrow, they'll do all the reviews of those.
1:02:38
So let's move on to our last topic before we get out of here,
1:02:44
as I have a show, right, I said, I was sick this
1:02:45
week, and so I couldn't get to a top ten list, and I
1:02:51
just I could not get to listen to a whole album this week, and
1:02:53
it's just been a crappy week. So next week I will have my friend
1:02:57
Cory's Alinka wanted DMX It's dark in Hell is Hot, so we will do
1:03:01
that one for him next week. So we'll go into that one next week.
1:03:06
But let's look at what is coming up at the box office, Oh
1:03:12
really quick, The Voice the season next year for The Voice, two new
1:03:19
hosts are going to be on there, two new judges Snoop Dogg and Michael
1:03:22
Bubley to go along with Reeba McIntyre who's attorney. And then of course Gwen
1:03:28
Stefani is coming back, so it'll be Rebug, Gwen, Snoop, and
1:03:35

1:03:39
right, And now let's see which TV shows are renewed for this coming season
1:03:45

And that might be it. That is it. And if you did not
1:11:59
hear yet, The Golden Bachelor will be back in the fall and Joan Vassos
1:12:04
will be the new Golden Bachelorette. She will be the first ever Golden Bachelorette.
1:12:09
If you don't remember Joan, Joan, she was the one that had
1:12:15
a really, really good dinner with Gary and she was ready. I really
1:12:21
believe she would have won the Golden Bachelor. She would have been the one
1:12:26
that got him had she not had to leave due to a medical concern with
1:12:30
her daughter that required her care in the real world, so she eliminated herself
1:12:35
from the Golden Bachelor. I believe she would have won because I think she
1:12:40
had more than the other two women did with Gary, so it's said.
1:12:44
Now the funny thing is that everyone said this as a joke, but it
1:12:47
could be true. What if Gary ends up as one of the contestants.
1:12:54
He's single again, who's to say he couldn't go there and be on the
1:12:58
show with her. We don't know, We'll see. That could be a
1:13:00
crazy twist if he ends up being one of the bachelor the Golden Bachelors,
1:13:06
that's trying to win the heart of the Golden Bachelorette. So that'd be a
1:13:11
funny twist and I could see ABC pulling off of stuff like that. Well
1:13:15
we'll see, But yeah, I'm excited for her. I was really sad
1:13:19
when she had to leave. She was actually would have been my pick because
1:13:23
for being in her I think she was like Internet, like upper sixties or
1:13:27
early seventies. She was beautiful. She was a beautiful person inside and out.
1:13:34
The fact that she eliminated herself from a big competition for her family shows
1:13:41
that she really truly cared about her kids and her family. And I really
1:13:46
do believe that ABC made the right choice bringing her in because they could have
1:13:50
easily brought in the finalist, which I love her too. She was amazing
1:13:55
too, and I really think that he should have picked the all one.
1:14:00
If he had to pick from the two that were in the finals, it
1:14:02
should have been the one who was more spunky the one that he picked.
1:14:08
I believe the reason that they're getting a divorce already is she's just not adventurous
1:14:14
enough for him and he needs that. He wants to have that. He
1:14:16
doesn't have little kids anymore. He has grandkids, but they're not his kids
1:14:20
to raise anymore. So he doesn't have to be there every step of the
1:14:24
way. He can travel, he can do the things that people do when
1:14:27
they're retired and not have to worry about his kids because they're all adults and
1:14:31
like in there what forties and all that thirties forties, they're on their own.
1:14:35
They're doing their thing, so he could travel with his with his new
1:14:40
wife or whoever. So I would laugh if Gary showed up as one of
1:14:45
the contestants on the Golden Bachelorette, because he really did like her, and
1:14:49
I really believe that he would have chose her had she stayed throughout the whole
1:14:55
competition. So we'll see what happens I'm excited gold Match rots coming back.
1:15:00
But hopefully everybody's watching all the games that are going on right now in the
1:15:03
NBA, WNBA, NHL. Football's around the corner. We'll have some more
1:15:08
football talk next week, and I will review DMX's It's Dark and Hell Is
1:15:13
Hot for my boy Cory next week. That way, I can actually have
1:15:15
a chance to sit down and listen to all nineteen songs. Not that I
1:15:18
haven't heard the album a bunch of times when I was younger, but it's
1:15:21
been a while. You know, I'm getting older now, I'm in my
1:15:24
forties. I didn't get to still, you know, I don't listen to
1:15:27
the album so in the nineties as much as I used to. So I
1:15:30
will definitely go and do that. So next week get ready for that.
1:15:34
I'll be reviewing It's Dark and Hell's Hot by the late great DMX, and
1:15:39
I'll give my ratings on my top five favorite songs. How many records will
1:15:43
it get we'll see. And then the week after that, I'm going to
1:15:45
listen to the entire Billie Eilish CD because her new album comes out. Actually
1:15:53
tomorrow is the release of the new Billie Eilish, So make sure that you
1:15:57
guys stay tuned for that. I'll let you go like that. But next
1:16:00
week for Corey, I'll do the DMX, and then the week after I'll
1:16:03
do the New Billy Eilish. I'm gonna listen to it, so I may
1:16:08
review both. Maybe i'll do both, but I'll probably listen to New Billie
1:16:12
Eilish CD in the next few weeks and stuff. My daughter is a huge
1:16:15
Billie Eilish fan. She already ordered the album. It should be here in
1:16:19
the next few days. And then of course I got iHeart Radio where I
1:16:23
can listen to it even tomorrow already. But yeah, so we'll see what
1:16:27
happens until next week. Enjoy the weekend. It's supposed to be a nice
1:16:30
one in the Midwest. We're supposed to have some nice weather, no rain
1:16:34
after today, so it should be nice for Friday, Saturday. Well,
1:16:38
maybe a little rain tomorrow on Saturday and Sunday, nice weather. So I
1:16:42
hope everybody enjoyed that. I hope all you mothers enjoyed your Mother's Day weekend.
1:16:45
I hope everybody had a great one. Summer is upon us. Let's
1:16:49
enjoy that beautiful weather. I will see everybody next week. Until then,
1:16:55
I love y'all, see you later, Stay safe, stay healthy, and
1:16:59
don't die. Everybody later, peace,
