  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the right time. A wave original.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: My name is Beaumont Jones. Thanks for listening wherever you
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: get your podcast. Thanks for watching us on YouTube. Subscribe, like,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: rate us, review us, give us five stars. You only
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: give us four stars. I'm inclined to believe you are
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: a hater. We are coming off the first weekend of
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: college football. This is also the first time that in
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: spite of a federal holiday on Monday, we still giving
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: y'all three episodes. You're welcome.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: It's love.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: I promise. Anyway, a lot of college football. We got
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: some Michael Parsons. After I had a little more time
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: to think about Michael Parsons, had some more stuff to say.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: We will get to that. But I've got to tell you,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: if you listen to our college football preview episode with
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: me and Spencer Hall, got to tell you guys, man,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: we did a lot of being right. Like, it's not
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: really often that that happens, right? I'm not so much
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: patting myself on the back. Yes, I am. But I'm
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: just saying, like, I don't really get to do that
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: very much. I'll come out here and tell you when
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: I was wrong, like I will when we talk a
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: little bit about Micah Parsons, because I sure didn't think
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: they was going to trade him. However, the college football stuff,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: we were right. But in some ways, not only were
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: we more right than I expected us to be right,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: in some cases, we were righter than I wanted to be.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Case in point, we were righter than I wanted to be. Uh,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: North Carolina got a national television game on Monday night,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: on Labor Day, playing at home against TCU. I am
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: 45 years old. I don't think that there's ever been
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: a time in my life that this many people watched
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: a North Carolina football game on purpose. I don't think so.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: The only other time it could have come close to
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: that is a game that Ryan probably remembers, which was
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: the game that North Carolina played against LSU to start
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: the season in 2010. You were there, right? When North
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Carolina didn't have any players left because of all the
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: NCAA stuff, and Les still almost found a way to
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: lose that game.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Still almost lost that game.
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: Almost.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Carolina dropped three touchdowns, I believe, at the end of
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: that game.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: TJ Yates' best performance of his career, for sure.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: And also, it was the day that I realized that
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Patrick Peterson was something much different than anything that I
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: think I had ever seen.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: I believe that was also Tyron Matthews' first college football game.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: It was.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: It was Tyron Matthews' first college football game. And that
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: whole LSU season was the entirety of the Les Miles experience.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: That is also the season where, what's his name? Derek
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Dooley sent 15 people out there for that last play
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: of the game. That is also the season where somehow, someway,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Jordan Jefferson got the first of his two victories as
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: starting quarterback over Nick Saban at Alabama. Yeah. The only
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: guy that did that.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Just the entire West experience.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: But lost to Arkansas.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, of course. I was Arkansas without Derek McBadden.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: Incredible.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: A lot going on. Sorry. I'm going to get back
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: to North Carolina. The score was 48 to 14 in
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: this game. They got their asses kicked. Now, let me
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: tell you what I think was interesting, though, about watching this.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I could make the argument that this is a very
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: encouraging outcome for Carolina fans while also being a very
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: terrifying outcome for what is going to happen in the
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: course of this season. Look. I need everybody to understand
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: how badly I wanted North Carolina to win this game. Now,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: as many of you know, I went to graduate school
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: at North Carolina, and I hate Duke basketball like they
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: did something to me personally. However, my desire to see
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: North Carolina win this game had nothing to do with
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: either of those things. If you listen to this show
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: and you know me just a little bit, You know
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: the biggest reason I wanted North Carolina to win this game.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I wanted them to win this game just to spite
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Joel from Missouri City. That is the only reason I
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: wanted them to win this game. I wanted to be
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: able to talk that shit to Joel like nobody's business.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I was already preparing to say that apparently TCU, they
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: like the hostesses. They like the welcoming committee. You know
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying? A new star shows up on the
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: block and TCU show them around and make sure they
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: have a good time just like they did for Deion Sanders.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? I was ready for that.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: And if you watch that first drive that Carolina had,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: it looked like that was exactly what was about to happen.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: That little bitty quarterback was out there making throws. They
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: was running the ball. All of that was going down.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: I was like, hell yeah, Joe going to get even
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: sicker of me than he already is. You know what
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: I'm saying? No, no, no, he wasn't. He wasn't at all.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: He wasn't. Carolina had, they had everybody at that game, bro.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Carolina had, see, this is one thing about Carolina, by
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the way, even with football, They can go high level star.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Like when they went to shock and awe with high
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: level stars, they can do it on a special level, right?
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Michael Jordan pulled up, Roy Williams pulled up, Pep pulled up,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: LT pulled up. They had the clip of LT, Roy,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: and Michael Jordan in the box. And I'm just imagining
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: it being Roy Williams in the course of that. Because
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Roy know how to talk to Mike. Roy and Mike
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: have known each other for 45 years. I don't really
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: know what it's like when Roy talked to LT. I
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: don't know what it's like when anybody talks to LT.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I imagine that everybody wants to get out of talking
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: about politics. But anyway, those cats were there. Randy Moss
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: was there in the box with the first little lady
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: of North Carolina football. It was all there. And they
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: just watched them boys after that first drive get hammered.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: They just watched them boys get destroyed. I don't know
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: who wears number 29 for North Carolina, but they're going
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: to call that boy toast because he was just out
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: there getting fired up. Carolina fans will probably evoke the
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: name of a dude named Jordan Hemby when they talk
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: about him because everybody knows that corner that gets lit
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: on fire. No matter what team you root for, I've
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: said this many times, and y'all gonna get in these
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: YouTube comments on this and say exactly what I'm talking about.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Go ahead and put down that corner that your team
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: had that just stayed getting his ass fired up. That
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: was number 29 in the course of that game, man.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: It was just happening. They were destroyed. And here's where
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: I come from on this. One, I saw great room
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: for encouragement early in that game and the reason i
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: saw great room for encouragement early in that game was
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: i thought that carolina looked very well coached especially on
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: offense i saw a quarterback who dropped back and kept
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: his head up and moved pretty well in the pocket
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: which is pretty impressive considering he was without question the
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: shortest man on the offense okay um When they ran
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: the ball, it looked like an offensive line that was
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: well-coordinated and did the things that they needed to do, right?
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: I had serious questions about Bill Belichick and the big
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: brain brand of football that he coaches, how well or
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: easily he would be able to teach those things to
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: college players. And I think it's entirely possible that something
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: that Belichick probably enjoys about this job is that it
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: is more of a teaching job. Like he might be
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: a Larry Brown type who, yeah, could coach in the pros,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: but what he really loves to do is get in
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: there and teach. And now he has a better opportunity
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: to teach. And so. For me, that is very encouraging
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: if you're a Carolina fan, that this looks like a
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: well-coached team. We're going to talk about Alabama a little
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: bit later. That looked like a poorly coached team. That's
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: when you get terrified, right? This looked like a well-coached team.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: The problem is, I looked up at one of those
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: plays in the first half, and I forget what run
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: and play TCU called Like I'm going to be able
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: to tell you exactly what the run and play was.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Let me stop pretending. Brother, them boys moved furniture. They
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: picked that Carolina defensive line up and moved them the
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: hell out of the way. they looked really light in
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: the ass at the line of scrimmage on defense. And
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: if you read the ESPN.com article about the program, you
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: will understand. They had 70 new players, and it's amazing
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: that they got 70 players because they were, I don't know,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: I was about to use an ethnically inappropriate reference to
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: what it was like when everything got first started there
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: at Carolina, but imagine that it was like a fire
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: drill with no plan. Yeah.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Speaking of fire drills with no plan, I just pulled
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: up UNC's football coaching staff, and I want to read
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: some names off for you.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Obviously, you know, Bill Belichick, the head coach. Michael Lombardi,
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: the general manager. His son, Matt Lombardi, quarterback's coach. Freddie
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Kitchens is the offensive coordinator.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Not one, but two Belichicks are on the defensive side.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: And also, to go back to the top of the show,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Manny Miles, Wes's son, is an offensive assistant.
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: Ooh, really?
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah. On purpose?
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Sounds like it.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: So Freddie Kitchens was on the staff last year. And
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: I feel like this is probably a job that Freddie
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Kitchens could do, like coaching the college. You know, something
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: he could probably handle and get done. But they got
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: to get players. So I think it was David Hale
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: and Andrea Adelson. They have a very interesting story about
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: the beginning of the Belichick era. And one thing that
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: happened was these guys let their hubris get in the
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: way They basically fired everybody before they showed up and
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: were like, yeah, we need to keep things lean. But
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: the arrogance that it took for you to do that
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: without having any idea what college coaching is or what
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: the whole job was or anything like that, they knew nothing.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Nothing about what to do. But they got like their
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: examples in that article about recruits coming in for visits
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: and sitting in offices for like an hour and never
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: actually getting to meet Bill Belichick. Like they fired the
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: people whose jobs it was to do things like book
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: plane tickets. And so they had to go back and
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: hire people like in the short run just because they
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: had no idea what it was that they were doing.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: And it sounded like slowly they were able to get
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: things back up to speed. But they turned over 70
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: spots on the roster, and it doesn't look like they
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: turned them over and got better. Don't forget this team
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: last year, for example, had Amarion Hampton, running back, who's
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: probably going to run for a bunch of yards this year.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: I think he plays for the Chargers. That guy ain't there.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: That quarterback, he looks very talented, but my goodness, he
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: is a diminutive fellow. Watching them get pushed around, you realize,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: oh man, they don't have the guys. Maybe they'll have
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: the guys next year. Maybe they'll figure it out. But
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: like your general manager is a guy that doesn't know
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: anything about college football. A lot of these guys that
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: you got on staff, like Steve Belichick spent a year
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: at Washington. He's the defensive coordinator. But that was a year,
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: just a year. And I want to say this also
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: to you, Steve Belichick. If you're so insistent about having
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: that goddamn mullet, don't tie it up. Be that guy.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Let it hang. Or get a fucking haircut. Look, look, look, look, look, look, look.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie, man. The thing that makes me
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: wonder if Bill Belichick got what it takes to coach
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: college players is he can't even get his son to
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: get a decent, reputable haircut. I don't know what he
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: gonna tell these other kids. But I digress. They don't
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: have the guys. But to get on television like that
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: and to get embarrassed, I can't. It was the absolute opposite.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: Like worst case scenario for what North Carolina hopes for
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Under those circumstances, this is a chance that they're going
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: to have eyeballs on them like they probably will not
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: again anytime soon. I don't know what exactly it's going
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: to take to turn this around. Belichick in the pregame
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: interviews was talking about how we're not close to good,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: but he could see that we're getting there. The problems
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: with that team do not seem to be problems that
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: are going to be fixed with more practice. They're going
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: to need to get some ringers. You need to go
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: out here and find some guys. Hey, man, it looked
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: like you might be able to get some dudes from,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know, Western Salem State, North Carolina Central, Elon.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: They look like they got some guys that might be
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: able to play for y'all. I just didn't think that
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: it just did not look like they had the talent
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: that is going to be necessary to compete in the ACC. Man,
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: they might lose to Duke.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Like, I don't... They got to play Clemson in a
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: few weeks.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: They do have to play. And by the way, that
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: was another team that didn't look like the talent was
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: quite what people told me it was. For sure.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, that was majorly to double A compared to
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: watching UNC get pushed around last night.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: That is correct. No, no, don't get me wrong. You're right.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: You're not wrong. And let me tell you something else, Ryan.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know if anything going to hurt Bill Belichick's
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: ego more than losing a game to a coach like
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Dabo Swinney.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, it is. That is going to be he's
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: going to learn why college football is different than pro football. Very,
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: very quickly.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: You and I have talked before. I think we're talking
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: with Spencer about this before we record a college football
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: preview about the game that ended the Urban Meyer era
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: at Florida. And it was that game against LSU where
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: less was going forward.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Again, 2010.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: Yes, the crazy 2010 season of LSU. They were going
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: for it on fourth down, doing crazy stuff. Was that
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: the one? Yeah, that was the one where the holder
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: threw the fake field.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: Goal over the shoulder.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: That's right, it bounced. It bounced backwards. The kicker picked
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: it up. And when they asked Urban about it after
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: the game, all he could do was wave the question
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: off because he could not discuss the idea that that
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: meathead had in some form or fashion outcoached him. This
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: just couldn't handle the idea. Dabo Sweeney, who is an
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: absolute Hall of Famer as a head coach and done
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: an amazing job at Clemson, but he didn't do it
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: with the brain, okay? That's not how he got it done.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Bill Belichick is going to have to deal with guys
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: like that beating him. The Bill Belichick who owns Mike
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Tomlin is going to have to deal with getting cooked
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: by the likes of Dabo Sweeney Sonny Dykes, because that
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: just happened. He just got it from Sonny Dykes. Like,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: oh boy, it's not going to be the easiest year
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: for the man. It's not. It's not. And all I
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: needed him to do was beat Joel to no. That's
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: all he had to do. That's all he had to do. Instead,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: here I am offering congratulations to the biggest hater I know.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: All right, guys.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: So after the Micah Parsons trade, we immediately fired up
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: the microphones, got up here, did a quick little YouTube exclusive.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: Check that out if you have not checked it out.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: And I ain't going to lie, man. We just did
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: that for the money. You know what I'm saying? Y'all
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: wanted a little something right fast. I prefer to take
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: some time to think things out a little bit. But,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: you know, we went ahead and got that bread right
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: fast and gave y'all that fix that y'all needed. Now,
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: after having a little time to think about this... I've
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: got thoughts in a couple of different directions, right? Thought
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: number one, the report came out that leading into week one,
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Micah Parsons is going to need an epidural injection in
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: his back because of whatever is wrong with it. And Ryan,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: I have to be honest, I was right there with
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: my buddy Dominique Foxworth where he had been talking about
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: how his back was hurting in camp. And we all
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: thought that It needed a very simple solution. If you
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: just rub some money on it, it was going to
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: get fixed. And they rubbed money on it and that
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: didn't work.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: And still needs, I mean, when people start talking about
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: the back and start bringing out the L's and the C's.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: You know, I know that it sounds real. Like when
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: they start talking about the different vertebra, that's when you
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: know it's serious.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Hey man, when they start talking about the C's, we
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: got problems, right? Like that's what it is. But apparently
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: he needs an epidural injection. And this is a case
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: where maybe I'm simply limited in my knowledge and my
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: understanding of what exactly is like, what all the different
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: kinds of epidurals are. Because the only time we hear
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: about an epidural is when the toughest people among us
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: are going through the most intense pain of their lives
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: And that is when they need an epidural. I never
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: hear that term come up. Otherwise, I don't hear that
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: term really come up in sports. Otherwise, and we hear
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: about guys going through some serious pain and Micah Parsons
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: needs a shot in his vertebrae in order to get
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: back out here to play his vertebra. Bruh, like vertebra.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: See what I'm saying? Anyway, he need that shot going
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: into this game. On top of that, just want to
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: throw this out there. The Packers are paying him $ 47
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: million a year on this deal. Now, we had the
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: information on this contract. I don't want to pretend like
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: when we recorded before I didn't have the information, right?
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: I'm just a little bit more concerned with getting this
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: out of here. What I did not properly consider or
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: think about with this deal is the Packers absolutely blew
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: the box on this. They 100% blew the box. The
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: high for a non-quarterback up until that, Ryan, was what,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: $ 41 million?
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, TJ, I mean, we saw TJ Watt get paid.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: We saw Miles Garrett get paid this offseason. So right
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: around $ 40, $ 41 million. And then Micah, like you said,
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: blows the doors off for $ 47 for four years and
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: $ 136 guaranteed.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: Hey, man, and look, I understand that he is younger
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: than those other guys, but I got to be honest here.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I don't think there was any circumstance under which Jerry
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: Jones is going to pay him $ 47 million a year, right?
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: A lot of the reporting coming in that he was
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: offering more years for more months, like right around 41, 42,
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: but for five or six years, and then his agent's like,
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: not a chance.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely. But there's no way he was going to
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: be hitting for 47.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: No chance.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: None. No chance. No chance. I don't know how many
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: people would have done that, but it actually makes me
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: look back on this and say, I fully believe that...
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: This became personal for the Cowboys. This became personal for Jerry.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: This became personal for Michael Parsons. And that's the biggest
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: reason that the deal went the way that it ultimately did.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: But if Jerry had paid him $ 47 million, think of
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: my buddy Nick made this point. If Jerry had paid
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: him $ 47 million, we'd be killing Jerry for paying him
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: $ 47 million. Like if there was a world in which
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Michael Parsons could get somebody to pay him $ 47 million,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: he was going to need to do whatever kicking and
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: screaming he needed to do to get to that place
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: that was going to pay him that $ 47 million. Because
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: as much as we say the price for these things
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: kept going up and up and up, the price did
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: not go up to $ 47 million. It didn't. The Packers
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: took that price to $ 47 million. So what you're telling
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: me right now is that the Packers got a guy
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: that they just had to give an epidural and they
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: are paying him something in the neighborhood of like almost
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: $ 20 million. 20% more than what the going rate for
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: a player like that had been. On top of that,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Albert Breer, who works for Sports Illustrated, and of note,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Breer covered the Cowboys back in the day. So he
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: is somebody that I think you can trust as being
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: pretty well sourced around that organization. And Ryan, I had
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: heard this also, just not in the context of the Cowboys,
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: just in the general context of Micah Parsons. People don't
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: so much like that dude. Yeah.
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: They don't.
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, historically, people, you know, Yeah, that seemed to
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: be in the ether.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: I've heard somewhat jaw-dropping stories about reasons there are to
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: not be particularly big fans of that gentleman, right? Now,
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: is it a bit of a smear job, right, after
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: he leaves? Maybe, just maybe. But what I found interesting
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: was apparently Dak doesn't like him very much. And by
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: the way, Dak is the quarterback, whether you're Michael Parsons
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: or not, right? Dak don't really rock with them like that,
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: and a big part of why the people don't rock
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: with them is that damn podcast. Now, I need you
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: to understand, I work for a company that produces podcasts
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: for current athletes, okay? I think it is ridiculous that
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: these guys do these podcasts like the podcasts that they
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: do during the regular season. Now, I need you to
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: understand that The history of active players and coaches doing
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: media during the season is long running, right? The coaches
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: show on radio, for example, and a lot of these
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: guys like Tom Brady did those appearances on WEEI in Boston,
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: for example, for all of those years. This is a
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: thing that happens, right? So I don't want to pretend
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: like people have a tendency to act like not everything
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: new is new, right? But what is different is these
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: cats sit there for like an hour at a time
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: and actually give their real live opinions.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, Michael came out and said that Dak Prescott
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: wasn't a top five quarterback in the NFL on his podcast.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: That was insane. You never say, hey man, it's just
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: how I feel. Who gives a fuck if it's just
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: how you feel? What are you talking about? you don't
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: do that. It is crazy that into me that any
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: of these guys do these shows. I just can't for
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: money that I can't believe is worth it. Right. I just, I,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: I personally don't get it. Right. Like I'll say this
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: for the Kelsey brothers who do not do a show
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: for this company.
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: I don't ever get the feeling they talk about anything
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: that matters that much.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: No, they're, they're out there having a good time.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: They're out.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: They're not, they're not out there giving their, um, Trying
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: to break the Internet with their takes.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: No, I've never. The only time I've seen them do
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: it is when they acted like what was it when
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: they asked what position in the NFL was the hardest
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: to play. And Jason Kelsey said it was defensive back
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: because it was so hard. They don't even let white
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: guys try to do it anymore. That was that's that's
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: the greatest moment in the history of that podcast. As
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: far as I am concerned. But no, man, you can't.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: It blows my mind that he or anybody else does
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: one of these shows. Now, to tie this back to
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: what the original point is, All I'm saying in sum
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: total is I got a little bit of a better
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: idea how it is in the end this dude wound
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: up going somewhere else. Now, typically, a guy as good
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: as he is, man, you find a way and you
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: make it work. And I think we all understand that, right?
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: As good as Parsons is, you typically put up with whatever.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: But money-wise, at what point was it that you were
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: going to stop? And I think that no matter what
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: had happened, that point was going to be somewhere before
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: $ 47 million, right? The Packers are paying a gigantic price
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: for this, and they just had to stick a needle
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: deep in the dude's back. Like this trade doesn't look,
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: it was so shocking and stunning when it first happened,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: but it doesn't look nearly as crazy to me right
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: now as it did at the time. Like the Luca
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: trade for me is interesting because it looks crazier for
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: me as time goes on than it did at the time.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Even if I halfway understand why they did it, this
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: one dies down for me. Like it doesn't, it doesn't
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: look nearly as bonkers when you put everything together in
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: some total. Now, of course, if the Green Bay Packers
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl, which is entirely possible, then, you know,
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: this is what it's going to be. Now, of course,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: they have to play against America's team in week one.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: And those of us, hashtag one pride, like we expect
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: the Packers to get an understanding of how difficult this
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: is going to be for them. even if they have
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Micah Parsons on the team. But let's watch and see
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: how all of this goes for everybody.
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: It's going to make the noise around the Cowboys much louder.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: But let's also see what the noise around Micah Parsons
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: is now that he's up there. Now that he's making
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: all of that money. And by the way, now that
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: he's playing for a team that doesn't believe that all
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: publicity is good publicity in the way that his last
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: team did. Yeah. This NFL season is going to be messy, right?
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's coming at the exact right time. I mean,
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: Mike getting traded a week before the season. I mean,
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: I was excited already, but Mike getting is, you know,
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: what content dreams are made of, if you will.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Nothing will be crazier than if the Cowboys somehow beat
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: the Eagles on Thursday night and then the Lions come
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: out there and beat the Packers by two touchdowns.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that will fuel the take engine for sure.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: That would be great for business. And speaking of business, Ryan,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: you got any DraftKings information for us?
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: I sure do. NFL fans, week one is your shot
• 26:09

• 26:19
  Speaker 2: way to play fantasy. Speaking of this Eagles-Cowboys game, I
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: like Saquon Barkley to score a touchdown in that. I
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: think the Cowboys' run defense, even with Kenny Clark there,
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: is going to struggle. And I like CeeDee Lamb to
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: score a touchdown because they're going to have to throw
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: the ball a lot for them to have any chance.

• 27:33
  Speaker 2: to the stories that happened this weekend. Alabama lost big
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: 31-17 to Florida State. As Spencer Hall and you guys
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: talked about before the season, you guys mentioned the possibility
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: that this could get ugly in Alabama, and it looks
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: like it's already starting to.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: The heat is on. It's on the streets. It, it, it, it. Look.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: It's one thing that the heat is on. It's another
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: thing that it's week one, and it looked like the
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: heat was on. Like, you looked at Canem DeBoer on
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: the sideline, and that stress was getting him. Now, I
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: have been talking about this for years. Some of you
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: have been hearing me. It's really me talking to those
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: of you who, quite honestly— If you're under 35 at
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: this point, like you could be a real live full
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: on adult and you just don't understand what we've been
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: trying to tell you, which is this is one of
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: the worst jobs in the country to have. There are
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: two kinds of people who work the job in Alabama,
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: legends and dudes that get run out of town. There
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: really isn't any in between Bear Bryant and Nick Saban,
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: both of whom who got out just ahead of the Cavalry, right?
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Like if Nick Saban was about to have, they went 10-2,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: I think, his last year. If he had gone through
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: and had a 9-3.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: He was losing in the Rose Bowl to Michigan.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but if they had a 9-3 last year with
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Nick Saban, it has sounded just about the same. There
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: is no equity. There is no goodwill. Win forever. That
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: is what you've got here, all right? And so DeBoer, who,
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: it's a job you have to take, right? You get
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: offered that job, you take it. But he went from
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: working one of the most underrated jobs in America, which
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: is the job at Washington, which is a job where
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: we've seen a lot of coaches win a lot of
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: games at Washington. We saw Don James do it. I mean,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: we saw Jim Lambright do it after him. We saw
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: Rick Neuheisel do it. We saw Kalen DeBoer do.
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: It, right?
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: Chris Peterson. Yeah.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Chris Peterson, right. We've seen guys, a lot of guys
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: win a lot of games there because you have access
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: to a lot of talent because Washington is the one
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: city job that is, it's the one city school that
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: is not a city school. They are in Seattle in
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: a real live city, but it still feels like you're
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: going to college. There's a difference between Washington and say
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: the University of Houston, the University of Memphis, even Georgia Tech,
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: which has the academic restrictions, even Miami, where you're like,
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: oh man, we're competing for attention in this city. That's
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: not how it works there at Washington. They got a
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: 70,000 seat stadium that they fill up. That's beautiful. All
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: of these things. And he went down here to this place,
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: the only school that expects a national championship every year.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: That's where you went. And we're seeing it, man. We
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: are seeing it. We're hearing the rumblings come out that
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: the discipline level with the players ain't quite what it
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: needs to be.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: And honestly, they looked soft. They looked soft.
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: They looked soft. They just lost to a team that
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: went 2-10. last year they had to go get not
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: just the quarterback from Boston College a quarterback that got
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: benched at Boston College and he stood up in the
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: offseason and said Nick Saban can't save y'all I don't
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: see y'all I don't see how they gonna stop me
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: and neither did we we did not see them stop
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: him hey hey hey hey guys guys guys this this
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: this has the potential to get a lot of worse
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: and they don't have a quarterback yeah That's, that's, and
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: that to me about DeBoer is shocking. I don't know
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: how you wound up, especially in this day and age
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: where you just got to go spend the money and
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: get a quarterback. I don't see how you ended up
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: with this guy.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: He just brought back his old OC. He brought back Grubb.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: These guys are, you know, have been together forever and,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: you know, Alabama is a game where you don't get, like,
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: talk about goodwill. They beat Georgia last year, but you
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: don't get the goodwill from beating Georgia when you lose
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: to Vandy and you lose to Oklahoma and you lose
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: to Florida State, who you were favored by, by 14 points.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: Yes. Hey, hey, let's look this up. Let's look this up.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: All right, we got this stat. I'm sure you guys
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: have seen it, but it's been around. This is from
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Brett McMurphy. When favored by more than 14 points, Nick
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Saban was 131-2. Kalen DeBoer is 4-4. Hey, hey, hey,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: let me tell you this right now. He's not going
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: to get fired, okay? It'll cost $ 70 million to get
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: him out of there per the buyout, right? He's basically
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: like a tenured professor. And if you've listened to this show,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: you've heard me talk about what they do to tenured professors.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: They figure out how to make them quit. And what
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: Alabama will be hoping for in all likelihood at the
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: end of this season is that someone offers that man
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: a job. Someone a little closer to home from him
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: looks around and says, well, how'd you like to come here?
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: And he jumps on the first thing smoking because of
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: those post Bryant, post Bryant pre-saving coaches, Ray Perkins was
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: not fired. He quit. Bill Curry was basically fired, but
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: officially he quit after going 10 and two, by the way. Okay.
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: Dennis Franchoni. quit. Got out of there on the first
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: thing smoking. They ran Gene Stallings out of that job.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: I'm just telling you, Alabama does not typically have to
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: fire these guys. Like many of these jobs, Ryan Day
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: at Ohio State, for example, people are like, oh, it's
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: a hot seat for Ryan Day. No, no, no, no, no.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: It's not a hot seat in the sense that they're
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: going to toss him out of it. It's a hot
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: seat in the sense that it's going to be very
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: inconvenient for him if he loses to Michigan again, but
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: they're not going to fire him from that. They don't
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: do that Alabama is the job where they get you
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: out of here for this stuff.
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: But again, even don't make your life miserable.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Right. Even then not firing. It's just going to be really,
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: really miserable for him. If he don't get it turned
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: around real fast, real, real fast. Also shout out to
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: Gus Malzahn, who is a man of many splendors and
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: many quirks and many charms. And his most amazing trick
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: is he can beat Alabama. There will be a day
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: where Auburn looks back and was like, you know, but
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: he would beat Alabama once every three or four years.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: And that's good enough for us.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: It should be. It certainly should be.
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: It should be. What more can they ask? Look, I
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: don't know how honest you are with yourself about LSU, right?
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: Extremely.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: But LSU is a consistent nine and a half win program.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: that occasionally can win a national championship. But if you
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: look at it year after year, and this even applies
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: to the saving years, you're by and large going to
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: lose three games a year. It's about how it goes.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: Auburn is a very similar like eight and a half,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: nine win program. It's about the same. But every now
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: and then, everything can line up right and you're playing
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: for a national championship with Nick Marshall. But if you
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: beat Alabama every three years or so, everybody's going to
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: be happy. Just throwing it out there.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: All right, sticking in college football and people struggling. Arch
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: Manning made his starting debut, national debut for a lot
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: of people against Ohio State. Did not go well. 17-30,
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: 170 yards passing, one touchdown, one interception as Texas lost
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: to Ohio State 14-7. Tough for Arch in front of
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: a big audience.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: It's tough for Arch, and to a degree, the surrounding
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: hype has been wildly unfair. Right? And again, I don't
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: understand this because he's not even Peyton's... First of all,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: first of all, there was Archie Manning and there was
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: Peyton Manning. That other boy should not even be involved
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: in this conversation. And that other boy ain't even this
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: boy's daddy. You see what I'm saying? You understand where
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: I'm coming from here? Like, we're doing this to the
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: young man. And... He, from what I see, he has
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: picture-perfect mechanics. He is very, very athletic. He doesn't seem
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: to be that good yet, right? Like, he is a
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: five-star recruit. I will say that. Like, you look at him.
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: This is not the greatest quarterback we have seen since blank.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: This isn't even truly the most hyped quarterback we've seen
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: since blank. Jameis Winston and Johnny Manziel won Heisman trophies
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: as freshmen. You're telling me that there was more hype
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: around Arch Manning than there was about those guys coming back?
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: You understand what I'm saying? You're telling me there was
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: more hype around them than Caleb Williams coming back after
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: winning the Heisman Trophy?
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: Or Caleb Williams going from Oklahoma to USC at first.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, come on. You're not selling me on this.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: And so we built this up and it winds up
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: being like a pile on to the kid after the
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: fact when it seems that he and his granddaddy are
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: the most reasonable people around this. Remember when his granddaddy
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: said he's coming back? He'll be back in 2026? And
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: RJ's like, oh, I don't know where he got that from.
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: I know where he got that from. He know you
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: ain't that good yet. He knows you need the time
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: and he is going to need the time. And look,
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: Somewhat encouraging for Texas, I would say, because I think
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: that'll probably be the worst game that Arch plays this year.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: And they only gave up 14 points on the road. Like,
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you're Ryan Day, this is not encouraging
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: for your- No, they.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Had one of the least explosive offenses in all of
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: SBS in week one. They were like about 130s.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this ain't getting nobody off your back, right? This
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: is not going to do that. But this is what's
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: encouraging to me for North Carolina is that Matt Patricia,
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: who never really demonstrated himself to be a great NFL
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: defensive coordinator, And he's still doing that thing where he
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: got a pencil behind his ear, but the play sheet
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: is laminated. Shout out to my guy, Stu Gotts, for
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: pointing that out. Because if anybody knows, if anybody can
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: eye-spot some bullshit like that, it is absolutely Stu Gotts, right?
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: Game-recognized game.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: Game-recognized game. That's it. What you doing with that pencil, homie?
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: All you going to do is stab yourself by accident.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: That's all. But he was able to impart whatever his
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: scheme is to these college players and you saw what
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: he could do if you got the bodies, right? If
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: you've got the players, now you can make this happen.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: So when Belichick gets the players, if Belichick gets the players,
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: then maybe you can see the scheme get implemented, right?
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: But for Ohio State again, they're going to need to
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: figure out how to score some more points. And just
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: a heads up, did you see Bryce Underwood for Michigan?
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: Former LSU commit. Yeah.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: I forgot about that part. My man, big George Foster.
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: He put the, he put a couple of clips up
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: on the internet of Underwood. Cause I hadn't seen them.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: And I was like, Oh my goodness. That right there
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: is going to be a problem.
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: You know who another one of those highlights. you know
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: who um on sunday played sunday afternoon so i don't
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: know a lot of people saw it but uh sellers
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: yeah oh man.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: Sellers looks like an old school excellent college quarterback i
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: don't know how good he's going to be in the
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: nfl but he looks really big really strong fast enough
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: it plays in south carolina.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah they're they're going to have a lot of fun
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: because they uh they also have a big fast wide
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: receiver i think his name is uh Nick Harbour or
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: Nick Haber, um who can who looks like a track
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: star out there so they're gonna do a lot of
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: uh chucking it deep and watch sellers do something and
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: that's gonna be fun um but the real thing that
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: shocked me with arch bringing it back to that is
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: it's not that he he looked rattled and he missed
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: easy throws like throws you can spot from your couch
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: like wide open like it was it didn't take a
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: expert to explain how he struggled and i think that
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: was almost harder.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: I i agree with you but the thing i would
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: say for him it was a point that i tried
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: to make about caitlin clark last year and it's going
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: to be really germane to her next year as this
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: year has been injury filled and all of this stop
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: trying to give it to these people before they actually
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: do anything right like you can acknowledge they're a big
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: deal you can acknowledge the level of interest around them
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: but the truth is Where this gets to be interesting
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: and what makes you truly love and respect these figures
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: is what they do when it gets hard. Right. And
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: like maybe some of you don't remember Peyton Manning's time
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: at Tennessee where he lost to Florida four years in
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: a row. Went to the Orange Bowl his senior year
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: against Nebraska and got their doors blown off. It ain't
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: always easy, man. Like there are things to overcome. There
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: are things that you got to push through and it
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: will be more gratifying as a viewing experience. And for
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: you as fans, if you watch Arch go through the
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: struggle to then get to the other side. And right
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: now it's the struggle part. So let's see how he
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: responds to that struggle, because that's going to be the
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: real test of whether he is what you say he is,
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: not how easy it looked in week one.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: All right, we're moving on as summer winds down. We're
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: reacting to an article from HeatMap News about how electricity
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: got so expensive. Over the past few years, electricity prices
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: in the U.S. have risen sharply, surpassing inflation by a
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: wide margin. While it can be political to blame renewable energy,
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: but the real driver of this is the infrastructure itself.
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: Utilities are more expensive because the poles are more expensive,
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: the wires are more expensive, construction is more expensive, the
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: transformers are more expensive. And what has happened to that
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: is electricity has gotten way more expensive for the rest
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: of America.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: Brother, I got an electric bill the other day that
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: I couldn't believe. Like, I don't even want to say
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: the number out here in front of these people. I'm
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: going to send you the number right now on text, Ryan,
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: and you can answer this with your face. I don't
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: think I don't even think I needed to tell you.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: You know, you've been to my house. Yeah, you just
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: saw it, huh?
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was like, I don't know what
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: I need to do. Like, I had to start doing
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: all kinds of stuff. Like, I was like, okay, well,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: maybe 78 degrees isn't that hot in your house after all. Like,
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: you know, these were the things we had to change.
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, it looks like fall is coming faster for
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: the rest of America. Like, I mean, it was seasonably
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: cooler all over the United States, and I think that
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: is going to be a relief for lots of people.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: Speaking of homes, we're reacting to a Wall Street Journal
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: article talking about a new trend for prospective homebuyers. They're
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: requesting to stay overnight or rent properties in the short
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: term before committing to a purchase. For example, people, you know,
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: buying a eight-figure home, have offered to do a two-month
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: stay with fully furnished accommodations. This is a trend of
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: getting traction in high-end markets like the Hollywood Hills, the
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: Hudson Valley, Florida, and Texas. Essentially, people have started to
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: test drive cars or test drive homes like they are
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: test driving cars, Bo.
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: Yo, I have to say, I understand why it is
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: that this had not happened before, but this is something
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: that should have happened before. I think this happens to
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: people fairly often and it has certainly happened to me
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: where when you walk through a house and go through
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: all that stuff, there's no way you can tell what
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: all the things are. It is amazing how little something
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: can be that can make a house borderline unlivable. For example,
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: I live in a place right now that I enjoy
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: a luxurious bubble bath, right? I like to just kind
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: of lay around and think about my day or whatever
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: it is. But the bathtub is so narrow on the sides.
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: It's like yay big where you ain't got nowhere to
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: hold the soap. You see what I'm saying? That's really annoying. Yes,
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: it's incredibly annoying. I don't get to use the bathtub anymore, right?
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: It's not like you would get like a TV stand
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: for your bathtub.
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: Right, right. And then it's like, it's a giant tub.
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: And so the faucet that pours water in it is
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: too small. So it takes like forever in order to
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: fill it up. Like it's all kind of futuristic stuff
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: going on with it. But it's all these little things
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: that if I had test driven the place, I probably
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: would still live here. But if I had test driven
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: the place, I'd have been like, oh, these are things
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: that we kind of sort of need to think about.
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: And so if you're going to be paying these prices
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: at the interest rates, I'm a little surprised that there's
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: enough interest in it that the sellers now have to
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: go along with it.
• 44:43
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: You know, because what do you do? I mean, because
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: we're not about to move. You're not about to move
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: your furniture. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, like,
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: are we switching out the furniture in the course of this?
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a. I think it's fascinating. I think it's
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: interesting how these corporations always find ways of making more money.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: And this is just an easier way of, I mean,
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: you know, they're getting some cut of this as well.
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: This is just a fascinating way of like figuring out,
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: you know, we could sell it, but we could also
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: get commission for renting it before we sell it too.
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but I see the vision. I do indeed.
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. And finally, we're going to the U.S. Open. This
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: story went viral. After an upset win, a Polish tennis
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: player tried to gift his signed hat to a young fan,
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: but it was very quickly snatched by an adult. Later
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: identified online as a Polish CEO, quickly tucked it into
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: his bag. Internet sleuths found his identity online. And Review
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: bombed his company. So that's what happens when you steal
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: autographs from kids.
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: My.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: Look. You knew he was giving it to the kid, right?
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: Of course.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: Okay. Now, I admit, the whole thing of, like, if
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: a foul ball comes in the crowd and you get
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: it and a kid wants it, you should give it
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: to the kid. Do not agree. Do not agree at all.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: That's a once-in-a-lifetime situation.
• 46:09
  Speaker 5: Do you....
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: Kind of think of that as like not letting kids
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: win in board games. Like if you want to.
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: Get the ball, you got to win. That's exactly it.
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: You have to earn it.
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: Sometimes life isn't fair. Now, do I think that you
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: should cut in front of the kid to catch it?
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: Probably not. Right. Do I think you should do that
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: with a T-shirt? Probably not. But the foul ball? It's
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: a little different, right? So I'm just saying that to
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: say that I'm not a sucker for kids in this way.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: But you knew that was not intended for you. And
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: on top of that, I don't really know how things
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: go down in Poland, but I would imagine in America,
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: you can get your ass kicked for that, right? Like
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: somebody's pops is there, and this is what it is? Nah, man,
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: we got to scrap it out.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: And also, if you're running any company, you have to
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: know that you're at a very publicly televised event you
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: have to assume that you could possibly end up on
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: camera yes and so if you're going to it's like
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: the couple we talked about the Coldplay concert over the
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: summer like if you're going to be in a place
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: where there are a lot of cameras you have to
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: adjust your poor behavior accordingly or at least try to.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: And brother you a Polish CEO you telling me you
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: can't get in a room with this Polish player some
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: other chance and.
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah how many testers are there in Poland.
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: Come on, but counterpoint also, by the way, just so
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: we're clear. And this is the thing I think about
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: often with these different things that these kids get. If
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: that kid is sitting close enough to the court to
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: get this hat, he'd be getting lots of stuff. Just
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: throwing it out there. I bet his bedroom more tricked
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: out than mine. But the dude was still wrong.
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: All right, Bo, we're trying out the new voicemail line,
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: just kind of asking for general questions, prompts from the audience.
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: We got a few good ones. Here's the first.
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: Hey, Bo.
• 48:10
  Speaker 4: This is Jake from the greater Southern California area. Just
• 48:13
  Speaker 4: wanted to hear your thoughts on what's going on in
• 48:15
  Speaker 4: academia right now. I know both your parents are academics.
• 48:18
  Speaker 4: You've obviously spent a lot of time in and around
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: higher education, and you're clearly passionate about education and that
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: it matters. My wife's a PhD. She's a lecturer in
• 48:28
  Speaker 4: the five. So, obviously, now we're not great. But obviously,
• 48:32
  Speaker 4: there's a lot of the political stuff going on. And,
• 48:34
  Speaker 4: you know, who knows how that's all going to shake
• 48:36
  Speaker 4: out over the next several years. But it also just
• 48:38
  Speaker 4: kind of feels like we've lost our way when it
• 48:40
  Speaker 4: comes to, I don't know, an appreciation and interest in education.
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: I mean, maybe even knowledge in general. But obviously, like
• 48:47
  Speaker 4: the structure of education is something that we do not value.
• 48:50
  Speaker 4: It seems like we– We used to.
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: So I guess the.
• 48:53
  Speaker 4: Question is, is there anything that we can do about this?
• 48:56
  Speaker 4: I'm just curious if this is something that you've thought
• 48:58
  Speaker 4: about or that you and your folks talk about, you know,
• 49:01
  Speaker 4: all that good stuff.
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: Thank you, sir. Keep up the great work. Take care.
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: All right. I appreciate that. For years, I've thought about
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: it from the bottom up. And yes, our appreciation for
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: education in this society became strictly as you need education
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: to serve the economy. which was not always what this
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: was about. Right. It was not always the intention of
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: the people going into school. But then from there, it
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: really came to we're just doing things that serve the economy.
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: And when you look at like the majors, they get
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: eliminated and all of this stuff. It is for those reasons.
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: I think it's a university. I think it's Indiana, Indiana University,
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: I believe it's called, not University of Indiana. But I
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: think it was at Indiana where you look at the
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: majors that they were getting rid of. And it's just like, oh,
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: my goodness, you're turning a tier one research institution into
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: a trade school, basically. Right. But the real concern for
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: higher education right now, it's not about our attitudes for education.
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: It's not. your kids and their reliance on AI and
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: nobody explaining to them that it's not just about getting
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: a grade. You actually need to learn something, so forth
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: and so on. The issue is not those things. The
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: issue is not from the bottom up anymore. It is
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: from the top down and the clear and obvious intention
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: to destroy the institution of higher education. And there were
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: people who called this before it started happening with the
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: Harvard lawsuit, the Columbia lawsuit, all this stuff coming down
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: from the Trump administration. But what is happening is that
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: the very idea of higher education is being destroyed. The
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: places that provided are being weakened terribly in a way
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: that you can look up historically what types of societies
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: do this and what the end game is when this happens.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: You don't need me to tell you what it is.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: You can go look up who it is that's done this, when, why,
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: and what the end results have been. And it is
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: absolutely terrifying. So it has gone away from me being
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: afraid of how stupid your kids are to me being
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: much more afraid to how stupid the people are that
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: are above the people who would love to try to
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: teach your stupid kids. Nope, nope, nope. It's gonna be
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: worse than your kids being stupid. It's gonna be your
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: kids literally having no shot.
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: All right, let's get to one that's a little bit
• 51:18
  Speaker 2: more fun.
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: Omani, Mike from Pittsburgh. I was thinking about David Bowie
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: and how if you have any three combinations of his
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: albums in your top and how many different combinations there
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: could be to still make a respectable argument. I was
• 51:38
  Speaker 3: wondering if he's singular in that or if there's any
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: other artists that come to mind.
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: Thanks.
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: Love the show.
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: All right. I appreciate it. So Ryan, just to make
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: sure I understand what he is saying, he is raising
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: the question about like, is there anybody that you could
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: put more combinations of their top three records?
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: And plausibly say that.
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: Like someone who has like, you know, 10 albums, you
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: can make the case that three are the best.
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: I don't think off the top of my head, I
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: don't think there's anybody else that you could do that
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: many for. So for example, with Prince, the top three
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: Prince albums to me, for most of whoever you happen
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: to be, is going to be some combination of four records.
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: Dirty Mind, 1999, Purple Rain, and Sign of the Times.
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: It's going to be some combination of those four. The
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: Marley catalog is interesting because you can kind of bounce
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: around with how you do it, but it's more the
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: consistency of the catalog. than like the specific outright highs. Bowie,
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: and I had to pull up the list just to
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: be able to do it. Hunky Dory, Ziggy Stardust, Low, Lodger, Heroes,
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: Let's Dance. And then depending on how you feel about
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: like Young Americans, I don't love that. Oh, Station to Station,
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: I forgot. I just gave you seven. And I think
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: that you can reorder those three. I mean, take the
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: top three out of those, any order you want to,
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: And you're coming out pretty damn strong. I think most
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: of us, the way we think of the Led Zeppelin catalog,
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: you can't really do it like that. Now, when you
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: get to like Miles Davis, that's when we start talking
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: about something completely different where anything feels possible when you
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: go over there. But now that you say that, and
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: the more that I think about it, even Stevie Wonder,
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: Stevie Wonder. has a is on this right.
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: That was what i was about to ask is like
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: i was trying to get you into a stevie conversation.
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: So the thing to me about stevie that i think
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: is underrated is that everybody likes to talk about how
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: cool they are and so they start picking up the
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: post motown assembly line records and so they leave out
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: for once in my life they leave out signed sealed
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: and delivered I feel like there's one more of those
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: that they then leave out. Right. But they they skip
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: to go straight to where I'm coming from. Music of
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: my mind. Talking book. Intervisions. Filled with first finale. Salt
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: in the Key of Life. Hotter than July. If you
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: want to get there. We're talking like six, seven, eight.
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: Just unreal. I can't believe you. I can't believe one
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: person is capable of doing that. So to me, yeah,
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: it's those two guys. The 1970s gave us David Bowie,
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley, Curtis Mayfield, maybe the best part
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: of the Rolling Stones catalog. zeppelin if that's like really
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: really like your bag and what you want to get
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: into um and this is just this is me going
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: off the top of my head you get like other
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: bands like the the osley brothers got three or four
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: unreal ones in that time period the oj's got a
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: crazy run of unreal stuff that comes in that top
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: period time period and we could go more and more
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: nothing is beating the sevens nothing All right.
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: Here's the last one for maybe for new listeners of
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: the show.
• 55:11
  Speaker 5: Hey, Bo, happy Labor Day. So I've been a listener
• 55:15
  Speaker 5: since the right time, a radio show with Shannon and
• 55:20
  Speaker 5: you say it a lot, but can I get a
• 55:23
  Speaker 5: clear definition of a herb? Like I'm pretty good with context,
• 55:28
  Speaker 5: but like, and I kind of get what it is,
• 55:31
  Speaker 5: but like, you know, since we're doing this, can you, uh,
• 55:35
  Speaker 5: Give me and the rest of the people a clear
• 55:37
  Speaker 5: definition of a herb, please.
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: Appreciate it, Bo.
• 55:40
  Speaker 5: Later.
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: You know, it's always tricky because as I say, I've
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: never met a herb named herb, right? Like we just
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: throw this name herb out, but every herb I know,
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: I guess maybe they all understood they had to overcome,
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: you know, what was before them in order to make
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: it happen. Can I give you like a clear definition
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: of a herb? It's kind of one of those, you know,
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: a herb when you see a herb.
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: I know there's a ruling for the Supreme Court. It's
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: either indecency or pornography. I cannot defy it, but I
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: know it when I see it.
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: I know it when I see it. Okay, so I'll
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: give you an example. Russell Wilson used to be a herb,
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: but not anymore. Old Russell Wilson, now he's a herb.
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: New Russell Wilson, not so much. By the way, Ryan,
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: have you noticed the most interesting thing that has ever
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: happened that I can think of? Russell Wilson has become
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey and Travis Kelsey has become Russell Wilson. Did
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: you notice that?
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: Who had that on their bingo cards 10 years ago?
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: I feel like I saw a picture of Travis Kelsey
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: in a Hawaiian shirt and I was like, oh man,
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: the switch is complete. Like you look at Russell Wilson
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: in the clothes that Sierra picked out for him.
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: We need Travis Kelsey to say all things are possible
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: of God if they win another Super Bowl. The full
• 57:02
  Speaker 2: body switch will have been complete.
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: All I'm saying is, if it was 10 years ago
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: and I asked you which one of them is going
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: to marry Sierra and which one of them is going
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: to marry Taylor Swift, which direction would you have gone in?
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: All love, by the way, to all parties involved. Everyone
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: seems happy. Everyone seems happy, but it is, when you
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: think about it, it's a bit of a switcheroo to you.
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: It happened.
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: It happened.
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: But hey, ladies and gentlemen, thanks so much for joining
• 57:39
