• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Extravagantly powerful microphones of fs are am monating live from

  Speaker 1: the experience, the learning experience the world famous Fox Sports
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Radio studios, as approved by tapped in Tommy who knows

  Speaker 1: the full name guy tire rack dot com The Way
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Tire Buying showb So our lead this hour is from
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Dallas where her former Fox broadcaster turned Fox Broadcasting refugee
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Troy Aikman, who's been an NFL broadcaster a lot longer
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: than he played in the NFL. Troy Aikman has he's
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: decided he wanted to enter the conversation on the Cowboys,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: his former team, so he has chummed in on this
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Cowboy conversation the approach of his former team did an
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: interview this week. I just saw this or not, perhaps not.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: I thought it was mildly interesting. Mildly interesting. So Troy
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Aikman called out the Cowboys owner. That's the headline. Aikman
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: calls out Jerry Jones. Big headline.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: There, oh man, some juicy stuff.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: So Aikman, according to the quote the money quote said
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: that Jerry Jones is prioritizing attention.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Over winning.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: He said, quote if people aren't talking about the Cowboys,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: then he'll do things to stir it up. Jerry has
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: given the impression that supersedes winning, that that supersedes winning.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question. Can you parse the words?
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Parse the words of Troy Aikman saying that Jerry Jones
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: has prioritized the spotlight over winning.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: All right, So I've got.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Fruit loops, bull Durham, and Arctic white and we'll combine
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: all of these things together and we'll say, where's the
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: beef or where's the gobba ghoul?
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Is what we'll say. So to lead off here, you
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: might not know this about me. You think I'm just
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: an overnight guy. I might not be that big a deal.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: But I'm a senior fellow at the Malar Institute of
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: fact Checkers. And I looked over what Troy Aikman had
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: to say, no lies detected. And remember that I'm not
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: just some DABBRONI I'm a senior fellow at the Malar
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Institute of fact Checkers. So no lies detected. That is
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: straight up accurate. Now, what Troy Aikman was doing here
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: was he was doing some cosplay as the mascot of
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: fruit Loops to can Sam. He was parroting Troy Aikman
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: was parroting back what Jerry Jones said. So these headlines
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: are misleading is the word I will use. Their misleading
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: because Aikman just weaponized what Jerry Jones has said. He
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: didn't add gasoline onto the fire. He's merely parroting back
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: what Jerry himself has been saying for decades. Follow the rainbow, right,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Only the rainbow in this case is the currency of
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: clicks and attention. It's not about the trophy. So it
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: just depends how you want to measure success. Right, do
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: you want to measure success on the Lombardi trophies. Jerry
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Jones has been a magician with the Golden Top hat
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: at He's able in all of magic. I used to
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: when I was a kid, and I used to go
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: to Disneyland to Fairmount live near Disneyland, and my mom
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: would take me, and I always loved the magic shop
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: on Main Street. They had a little magic shop and
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I go in there and I was always amazed. I
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: was mesmerized by the magic. And then at some point
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: I learned what magic really is. It's all about distraction,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: right that you with the left hand. With the left
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: hand you do something and then the right hand is juggling.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: You know, a billion dollar deal if you're Jerry, but
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: you're doing they're doing the trick with the left hand.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: So he's not always about the x's and o's. Obviously,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: it's about the oh wow, did you see that about
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: the cowboys? Man, But the formula, it's kind of like
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: the in and out Burger. They there's a cheeseburgers, fries.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Limited menu. They got shakes and not much else, not
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: much else. And in Jerry's formula, he is richer than
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: a king. Troy Aikman can't understand, like Aikman is not
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: gonna unload on the Dallas Cowboys because he has a home.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: I know he lives in like Santa Barber or something
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: like that, but he's got a home in Dallas. He's
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: probably had a lot of homes. He made a lot
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: of money, so he's got a residence in the Dallas area.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: He's in the bubble of trust in Jerry's world. So
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: once you're in the bubble of trust, you don't destroy
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: the house. You don't destroy us because that you don't
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: call attention to it, because that's where you are.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: So all Aikman did.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: He was very measured, but he just parroted what Jerry
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Jones had said, and that's it.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Furthermore, we go to New England where Patriots wide receiver
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Stefawn Diggs ended his training camp silence.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: And I don't know.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: I have no idea how I lived an entire month
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: of training camp without hearing the wisdom of Stefan Diggs.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: No idea I made it somehow. You know, you get
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: some of that pink powder or whatever, the.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Pink candy anyway, Stefan Diggs. Yeah, he addressed reports that
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: he is becoming a bit of a pain in the posterior.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: Somebody in the Boston media said becoming a bit of
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: a pain in the posteria during training camp for the Patriots.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Now he says, Stefon Diggs that he is not trying
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: to be a pain in the ass. The badonka donc
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: He apologized. He said he wants a quote fresh start.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: That's a quote with the media.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Question, do you believe the well traveled Stephan Dicks, the
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Patriots version of Stefan Diggs, is going to be any
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: different from the previous vintages of Stefan Diggs. All Right,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: So I wrote down on my scorecard, l oc load
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: of crap is what I wrote down. This was straight
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: out of the Nuke La Loosh playbook. That's an old
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: baseball movie. It's an old baseball movie called Bull Durham
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: back in the day. Right, it's out of the Nuke
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: l Looshe playbook. You learn your cliches, You smile, you
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: repeat after me, I'm an adult. I don't want to
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: rub anybody the wrong way. Translation. Some pr people who
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I have under my payroll gave me some note cards
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: and told me to smile to the Camus. And it's
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: kind of like a house.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: You look at the house and then the outside it
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: looks pretty good, and you do a home inspection and
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: you find out that it's got some serious problems.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: The house, the underneath part of the house all messed up.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: So you can repaint that house really nice.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Got some really expensive paint solid paint job, well done,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: good good handyman work there paint the house and the
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: foundation still cracked. Like this is not a fixer upper situation.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs has shown us who he is. He was
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: a problem in Minnesota.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Check. He was a problem in Buffalo. Check. Check.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: He was a problem in Houston, although not quite as much.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: But they didn't have any problem getting rid of him
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: after a very short time with the Texans. That tells
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: you they were in love with the player. And now
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: we're supposed to believe that he's going to be a
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: choir boy in Foxborough. Come on now, seriously, Like Diggs
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: is contaminated with Devo wide receiver Centro. Now that doesn't
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: mean that he won't score some touchdowns and make some
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: plays and all that, but you got to understand that's
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: part of his DNA.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: It's part of the furniture. You don't change that.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: If Drake may is not giving him the ball enough,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: forcing the ball into Stefon Diggs, whether it happens this
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: weekend against the Raiders or whether it happens in week
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: four or week five, at some point he is going
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: to lose his mind. I'm just telling you it's going
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: to be an apoplectic rage from Stefan Diggs. Now he
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: might get lucky. Maybe it's a passive aggressive rage, but
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: it's going to be a range. We're talking about a
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: guy who's going to eat lightning and crap thunder.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: He's going to be that upset.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: And you watch the events that have gone like this apology,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: it's kind of like putting a band.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: Aid on after you've been hit with a bazuka.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: It's just you know, that's not so good. Now the
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: same Stefon Diggs. The laundry has changed. The laundry has changed.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: You can put him in red, white and blue, slap
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: that iconic pat patriot squatting down to take a dump
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: on the side of the helmet right there, and march
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: him out on the.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: Field that you led.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: However, he's still going to be the same guy who
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: melts down, down, down, down, down, down, down down the
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: very second that he doesn't get the ball, because I
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: believe that's baked in. The only question is when not
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: if this thing blows up, And I gotta tell you,
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: as a talk show host, I'm there for it.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: I'm in.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: I know I'm gonna get at least two or three monologues.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: It's a tradition. Every team he plays for, it's Stefon
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Diggs blow up week. My favorite part is when the
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: fanboys call up and they rant and rave about how.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: You're just a media hater. You don't know what you're
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: talking about. Steffon Diggs is a good guy. You schmuck.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: I had these battles. We just to have this guy.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: He quit the show.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Andy the comic book guy used to be a contributor,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: but he left the show. But Andy would call up
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: part of Bill's mafia and oh, you know what you're
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: talking about? Every story that was out there about Diggs, Oh,
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: that's just fake, that's media hate. People hate the Bills.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Turned out everything was right. In fact, there was more
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: that we didn't even know about, but everything was right. Uh,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: that's probably why he stopped calling all right, last thing
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: to the micro blogging world we go where Lions star
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: wide receiver I'm on Ross Saint Bront fans on social
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: media randomly for criticism.
• 12:04

• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Dan Campbell?
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: No?

• 12:15
  Speaker 1: I'm on Ross Saint Brown called out fans on social
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: media for criticizing Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams. He feels
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: it's unwarranted, according to the Saint Brown. He said, no
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: matter what he does talking about the Bears quarterback, good
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: or bad, it's.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: All on Twitter.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: I swear he can't breathe he takes one step wrong.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: They say Caleb did this, this, this like bro, I'm
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: on ross, Saint Brown said.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: They don't just let it be. That's a Beatles song.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: I feel bad sometimes, Saint Brown said during his podcast,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: which no one listens to. So do you feel bad?
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Do you feel bad for Bears quarterback Caleb Williams being
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: criticized on social media. My response here boo freaking who
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: and whooped the damn do?
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Right? Uh? You were last I checked the number one
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: over under line.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: You're supposed to be the face of the franchise. You're
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: in one of the great cities in America. Although there's
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: some things that could be better there in Chicago, right,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: and this isn't a some kind of yoga retreat in Malibu.
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: You got hard working, blue collar good union men like
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: our buddy Tree there in Chicago.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: He does not want to hear.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Uh, you know the the nonsense stories about Caleb Williams. Right,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: you will just shut up, go out and get another
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: but just in general, like this whole mindset.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: Oh they're too hard on all. Shut up.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: It's the NFL. You get the praise, you get the heat.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: It's hardwired into the job destriction description.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: And that's kind of how it works. And you're you're in.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: You know the spotlight. You want the spotlight.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Well, sometimes in the spotlight you get a sunburn, So
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: put some suntan lotion on, like our friend the Leprechaun.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: It's not unfair, it is inevitable. Caleb Williams is quirky.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: He's got painted nails, and even though there are other
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: players that have painted nails, it is still not normal
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: in the NFL that he got even though he didn't
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: live in La more than a couple of years. At SC,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: He's got that little Hollywood ore because he did do
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: time at SC. The whole package, and and that's fine.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: But don't act shocked. Do not act shocked when the
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: critics come at.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: You with a butcher knife. It's part of the deal.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: It's like buying in Arctic white Corvette convertible and then
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: complaining because it's windy when you're driving the convertible. Hello,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: you wanted the ride, You deal with the breeze. That's
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: how it works. And Caleb Williams, who is flamboyant, he
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: has offbeat whatever words you want to use there, you
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: take the good with the bad. You don't get the cherry,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: pick the perks and opt out of this other thing here.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: And so it's not like he's getting crucified for nothing.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Williams was a mediocre quarterback as a rookie. He's unorthodox.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: You've tossed that on.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's talent there, Sure there's talent.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: He's got a lot of quirks, and quirks get magnified.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: That's how it's always been, even before social media. And
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: it's not so much hate, although there is that on
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: there as well. It's just kind of the cost of
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: doing business. And my position continues to be when it
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: comes to social media.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: It's not real.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: It's a carnival of mirrors and a lot of emotionally
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: unstable things.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: Going on sway it is, and you don't know what's
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: real and what's not. It is the matrix, right.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: You think you're arguing with the person, but you're not
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: really arguing with the person because that's a bot. But
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: you didn't realize it was a bot because you're using
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: AI and AI seems like a human being, but it's
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: actually a bot, or maybe it's a dummy account or
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: there's a burner profile, but it's actually some marketing intern
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: trying to get engagement up and they're working on the metrics,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: the analytics so they can make more money and pillage
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: some businesses and whatnot, and so options you can go
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: to digital detox, you can get out of the digital sewer,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: or you can have someone else run your social media accounts.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Like I get a lot of crap doing the Opennight show.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: I'm not on social media during the day. I'll sometimes
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: pop on to post something to promote, you know, like
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: I'm doing Benny Versus the Penny now on YouTube, So
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: I'll get on there during the day and I'll send
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: out something to promote that to let people know about it.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: But I'm not sitting there futzing around right and engaging.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: I'm not hanging out in the sewer, whether it's a

• 20:04
  Speaker 1: back to it we go and mentioned Benny Versus the
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Penny and there's actually a video up right now on
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: that page.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: You want to get my pick on.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: The Cowboy Eagle game and also the game on Friday
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: between the Chiefs and that game in Brazil as they
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: take on the Chargers. Because you think AFC West football,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: you think of San Polo, certainly I do.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know about you, but I do.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: So I was looking on the DraftKings sportsbook app, just
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: kind of futzing around there, and they have touchdown scores.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: Now there's a couple of ways you can do it.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: There's a couple of ways you can do it. You
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: can do first touchdown score, which is and I have
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: a buddy of mine that does that first touchdown scores,
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: and so what that is is your screaming profanity at
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: everyone while watching the game that they don't score other
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: than the player that you bet to score. So there's
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: that option, right, and you get really good odds on that.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: At DraftKings there's the anytime touchdown scorer and then there's
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: the two touchdown scorer. Now for me, looking at the
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: props there, Jalen Hurts, I would go Jalen Hurts on
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: a tushy pushy touchdown that is minus one forty five.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: So that's what I would do.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: According to the DraftKings sportsbook, the odds are subject change,
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: but check that out. It's kind of a fun thing
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: watching the game and you can pick one of those options.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: You can parlay those things together, and in my experience,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: it enhances the experience, certainly, it expances it more.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: It enhances it more when you win. But that's that's true.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: But the Eagles, they get down there, they always seem
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: to run the tush push two or three times a
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: game and you get down to the goal line. I
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: just have I'm a distant relative of Nostradama's friend of Nostrodinas,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: and I see see that happening.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: There was that? All right, we'll take some calls here.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: It is a call in show at eight seven, seven
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: ninety nine on Fox but also on the ex Machine,
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: if you'd like to be part. And the Late Night
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: Drug Tester says professional athletes that need help navigating the
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: rough social media sees who just hire Benny Award winners
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Berg Dog, Justin and Cincinnati and Alf the Alien opiner. Absolutely,
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, absolutely super, Marcus Steve writes, and he says,
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: I put it up to you, Ben, I will set
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: up an account under your name for DraftKings with one
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: hundred dollars in it for twenty weeks of picks in
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: the Malord Militia League. I don't really care about the
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: one hundred dollars. It's worth it for the chance to
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: try to beat you every single week. Okay, that's fine.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: You'll get your ass kicked and then you'll disappear like
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: every other loser.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: That's fine. Yeah, And what else do we? Oh? No,
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: what is happening? Ben? What I mean?
• 22:55
  Speaker 6: He drops you?
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: The gremlins attacked? They did?
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 22:58
  Speaker 7: We lost you for like two point five second.
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: All right, don't go anywhere.
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: Okay, you are not allowed to leave yet. I mean
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: I could leave if you want to. No, No, all right,
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: alf the aline.
• 23:08
  Speaker 6: Oh there goes another nap.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: You're too hard on Stefan Diggs. Don't be a hater.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: He because he's enlightened since the he partook in the
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: pink ayahuasca?
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: What was that was not? What was that? Lorna? You
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: know what drug that was? That was not? Iowa to C?
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: What was it called to C to C?
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Like t U S S I E.
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: I do believe tussy tussy t u s I but.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I don't know.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: But Troy writes and says, the Texans had no issues
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: with Stefan Diggs.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: He was doing well until his injury. There were rumors.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: That would try to get him back. They would trying
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: to get him back with the Patch, paid him, paid
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: him a back. I disagree, Troy. If that was a
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: good relationship between the Texans and Diggs, they would have
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: done everything they could to bring him back because he
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: was a valuable part of the team. They didn't do that.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: They were fine with him leaving. He was not high
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: up on the pecking order. That's just the way it is.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: Let's go to the phones.
• 24:09

• 27:36
  Speaker 1: How do you know how anyone looks?
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: You're blind?
• 27:39
  Speaker 7: Most of the good book of people and boughts that
• 27:40
  Speaker 7: are from New Jersey, they're like transplants. Nobody wants to
• 27:43
  Speaker 7: live around here. It's really cold, you know, it's it's expensive,
• 27:47
  Speaker 7: by the way.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: You know, man, I've seen when I've been to Boston,
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: I've seen good looking people. There's a lot of college people.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: That go there. They're usually good looking college.
• 27:55
  Speaker 7: At the meet and Greek. They're not going to be
• 27:57
  Speaker 7: at the meet and.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: Greek definitely not of the meat. We'll have ugly people
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: to meet, but that's fine. Those are my people.
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 28:03
  Speaker 7: You know Tony Kunigliereio, Tony c he's friends of my family.
• 28:06
  Speaker 7: He got my mom into college, you know. And then
• 28:09
  Speaker 7: you know Fred Smirlers. I got kicked off the show.
• 28:12
  Speaker 7: It's called the Fred Smirla show. It was on the
• 28:14
  Speaker 7: other station. So like back in the day, I rode
• 28:17
  Speaker 7: my bike to like a Fred Smirlers live radio remote,
• 28:21
  Speaker 7: and they like were so put off by like a
• 28:23
  Speaker 7: kid trying to participate in the show. That that's why
• 28:26
  Speaker 7: I never could figure out why you met kids participate
• 28:28
  Speaker 7: in the show. But then we ran into Steve Geosti.
• 28:30
  Speaker 7: This is going back to that guy beast his phone
• 28:33
  Speaker 7: call in the second hout. He's from Rhode Island.
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: Obviously that guy he we me.
• 28:37
  Speaker 7: And my dad, he just runs the marathon. Right, we
• 28:39
  Speaker 7: run into Steve Diosti. Right, my dad confronts Steve Diosti
• 28:43
  Speaker 7: and tells him that he's a complete fraud and he
• 28:46
  Speaker 7: should have never ran in the Boston Marathon because you
• 28:49
  Speaker 7: know how they get the numbers, Someone just gets them
• 28:51
  Speaker 7: to him and you have to like qualify it out boolly.
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: I live next to the airport.
• 28:55
  Speaker 7: So why used to have to call these shows up
• 28:57
  Speaker 7: to wait on hold the whole show? So to drive
• 29:00
  Speaker 7: I fell crazy? Like he had to make up this
• 29:03
  Speaker 7: rule we could only call two times and one night
• 29:05
  Speaker 7: because I try to stay on hold the whole night,
• 29:08
  Speaker 7: you know what I mean?
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: One thing about Most radio stations used to have those rules,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: but nobody takes calls anymore, so they don't really care
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: about the rules anymore because they don't take calls.
• 29:19
  Speaker 7: Yeah, because they're trying to sell advertising, so they're trying
• 29:22
  Speaker 7: to fill every segment with paid guests for advertisers. But
• 29:26
  Speaker 7: like even Mario Lopez, you know that. Okay, he does
• 29:29
  Speaker 7: a radio show now. It's pretty good. It's on in
• 29:31
  Speaker 7: La Are they in the same building as you always
• 29:35
  Speaker 7: want to?
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: I think he tapes that during the day, so I
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: never see him, but he has a recording.
• 29:41
  Speaker 7: On there right now. He has some good content on
• 29:43
  Speaker 7: there right now. Because it appeaces to people driving their
• 29:46
  Speaker 7: kids back and forth from school, it seems like the
• 29:49
  Speaker 7: highest radio ratings gets, it's just soccer moms sitting in
• 29:52
  Speaker 7: their cards, you know what I mean.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm doing very well with soccer moms. All right,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: I got to thank you. You're droning on.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: I gotta go.
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: Let's salo to Danny Vito, America's favorite trash man. Hello,
