• 0:05
  Speaker 1: we're gonna do it anyway.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Let's go roll the intro.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: All right, all right, and your line from Philly it's

  Speaker 2: Huge show to New Year, can't we know?
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: We continue to chronicle the breakup of Skip Dayless's Swanton Shop,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: which shows while the whole concept of embraced debate has
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: been nothing but a total.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: Failure, colossal disaster exactly.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: You know people that're tired of all this arguing in
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: this back and forth.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: You know, we have a new slogan.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Instead of embrace debate, how about erase debate? Yeah?
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: Perfect, Yeah, there you go.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: You know, we all know that when it comes to
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: sports and opinion, there's only one correct point of view,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: and that's it.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Don't you agreet Tony one hundred spot on?
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: You know, that's why we've been so successful for so
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: many years in this business, because you know the audience
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: is they don't want to hit two sides of everything.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: They just they just had to get to tell them
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: the correct side and move on.
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: Isn't that right? Don't it?
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: I couldn't agree more.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: See this is this people take notes, you know, the
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: people in this context is how you.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: Make great sports contents.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely, And as the saying goes, we're like two
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: p's in a pond over here.
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: That's what we are.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Anyway, Today we're gonna bring on a man who has
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: tried to make it on debate shows to his peril.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Now he's gone solo, either because he wanted to do
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: it because you know, nobody could stand him anymore. Anyway,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: we'll ask him about that. You know someone who has
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: been kicked off this show many times. I gonna guess
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: it's gonna happen again, most likely Jason Whitlock, and we're
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: gonna get his thoughts on which side he's on, Skip
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: of Shannons.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, probably the wrong side as usual, That's what
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna guess anyway.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, before we get into that, first, a word from
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: our good friends at Outback Steakhouse. Have you ever tried
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Australian food? Well, believe it or not, it's not as
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: weird and off putting as it sounds. In fact, Tony,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: you have your own story here tell the people.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, A couple of weeks ago, I got my aunt
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Marie and her boyfriend Nunzio a gift card to Outback Steakhouse. Well,
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: I saw them the other night, and Nunzio seemed so happy.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: He told me he really enjoyed eating out down Under
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: with my aunt. I asked him what he ordered at Outback,
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: and then he seemed confused. He said he'd never eaten
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: there and didn't even know what Outback was. And I said,
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: but you talked about eating out down Under with my
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: aunt And oh uh, forget what I was saying. Let's
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: just move on.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Terrific story, Tony. Anyway, a special treat for.

  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Well, now another check this out of the way.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Let's get right into our top story story. All right, First,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: out the Gate, the big story in sports media, Skip
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Dayliss and Shannon show yea, you know, get your divorce
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: because they seem to clearly hate each other.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Any way.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: You know, people are saying that this is all Skip's fault,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: that Shannon's right believe in all this what you know,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: this is what I totally hate about sports TV these days.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: You know, this idea that.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: These former athletes can come on and be better at
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: sports talk than journalists and seasoned radios. It's just ridiculous
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: and frankly rude to our proud profession, isn't.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: It, right, Tony.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: You know, it's a toxic situation because these Hall of
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Fame athletes on TV now, they just naturally assume they
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: know more about sports because they, you know, we're in
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: locker rooms and actually on the field, and that's a
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: real problem.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: It's just terrible, you know, ruining the whole foundation of
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: what our proud industry of sports doc radio is built on.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: You know, we understand, and Skip Bayless understands tool that
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: the only way to have a perspective on sports is
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: to have no direct association with it at all.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: That's how you remain.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Objective, exactly. You gotta be objective.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know, perfect segue that, Tony as usual,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: because on the subject of another true journalist in this business,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: we saw an absolutely terrific take gampere this week from
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: just a brilliant observer of sports.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Of course, I'm talking about.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Chris mad Dog Russo, who said boldly and correctly, mind you,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: that this year's Nuggets team was totally overrated and that
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: the nineteen eighty six Celtics would sweep the Nuggets four
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: roaw no contest, and Tony mad Dog Russo is so
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: right here is it?
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Absolutely this year's Nuggets team would stand no chance against
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: the eighty six Celtics. All you gotta do is look
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: at the number of Hall of Famers on each team.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: That's the ultimate way to judge a team. That eighty
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: six Celtics had six Hall of Famers, the Nuggets have none.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: That's a glaring difference.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Such a great point that, Dony, And you know another
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: angle here that you know, I can't believe the media,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: or maybe I can believe that the media is just
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: too chicken to talk about.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: You'll hear it on this show people.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Doesn't anybody find it a little strange that in the
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: span of a week we've seen two athletes win major
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: championships from a country that nobody's heard of. You got
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Novak Djokovic, Serbian when in the French Open. Then you
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: got Nicola Djokik, also Serbian, within the NBA finals, and
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: nobody in our business seems to bat and I find
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: and find this weird.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: It's it's very disconcerting, isn't.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: It, Tony Very? You know, I don't get my information
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: from the Internet because I'm not dumb and gullible. I
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: go to trusted sources like Encyclopedias. I went to my
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: most trusted world book, Encyclopedia that I've had for thirty years.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: And what's so strange is that there's no mention of
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: a country called Serbia. But now everyone's talking about Serbia
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: this and Serbia that. Isn't it just a little strange
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: how this quote unquote country is so important all of
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: a sudden.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Just terrific perspective and research that Dony and Yank you
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: what I'm about to say is controversial, but you know
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: it's a duty as journalists it must be said.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: What about Chernobyl.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: You know, you had all that nuclear radiation springing all
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: over the place like forty years ago or so.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: You look now at what's going on.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: All of a sudden, you got these monster athletes sprouting
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: up everywhere in this country over there.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: You know we've seen this before. Just look at the
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: incredible Hulk. The radiation transformed Bruce Banner and made him huge.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: You apps, abolutely one hundred percent have to consider that
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: maybe all those gamma rays from Chernobyl got into their
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: DNA and gave them super strength.
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: You absolutely have to.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: You know, this is what they call in the business
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: people investigative journalism.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: We do real news on the show, unlike.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Well the outlets and a ninety three years.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, as we head into the summer, you know this
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: time of year, the sports world starts to slow down.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: We all know that, but you know it doesn't stop
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: these desperate sites like ESPN dot Com from try and
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: act like all these stories going on are a big dal.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: So right now, what we're gonna do is I'm gonna
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: read actual headlines from the front page of ESPN dot
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Com to Tony and I'm gonna see if he cares
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: or not. It's a segment we call do you give
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: a fund?
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: Do you give a all? Right?
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: First headline here, Tony Nevada passes three hundred and eighty
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: million dollar bill to fund A's stadium.
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: Do you'll give.
• 7:55

  Speaker 1: No Yankees owner firm in support of struggling Volpe.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: Do you'll give a I will be struggling to read

• 8:23
  Speaker 1: No Najee Harris backs Ourb's calls out longevity narrative.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: Do you give a fun?
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: This narrative has no longevity, only short jevity.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: No Ambappe hits out at France over Messi treatment.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: Do you'll give a hmm? I'm going to m skipe
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: this article.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: No Tiafo Mussetti to face off in stute Gard quarters.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: Do you'll give a hmm?
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: You know, given the recent success of Francis Tiafo, all
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: eyes will be on this match. Following the recent retirement
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: of Serena Williams, the US Tennisse sees and die in
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: need of a new face. While Tiafo does only have
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: a fifty one career win percentage, he is twenty three
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: and nine this year and picked up his first non
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: hard court title when taking the US Men's Clay Court Championships.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: So I'm interested to see if he can continue that
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: momentum against Mussetti, a very formidable sixth seed. So yes,
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: I do give a wow.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: Okay, then yeah that concludes us.

  Speaker 2: There you go, do you'll give a give?

  Speaker 1: today hosts his own show Feels with Jason Whitlock on
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Blaze Media to be on ESPN, FS one and a
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: bunch of other networks that quote unquote parted ways with him,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: you know who knows what happened, but that does make
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: himself an expert on the topic we're about to discuss,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: so let's bring him in.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Jason Whitlock, welcome back, come back to this show.
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: Yeah on the cry On put expert in parting ways?
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: Jason with about expert.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Well, first of all, it's a it's a Chiron, so
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: congratulations on knowing this business. But Cryon does seem to
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: fit your style of media, so maybe it wasn't a
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: misspeaker anyway.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: All right, let's just move on. You know, rough start
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: there for you, Jason, but we'll let you bring it.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Okay, you can still make up ground here.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: You only have twenty thirty years in TV. Maybe you
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: need one more. All right, let's start with the Skip
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: and Shannon breakup, right. You know, it sounds like they
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: really did not like each other at the end. There
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: you we all know you have worked on many debate
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: shows where you know, people started at the end to
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: let's say, take umbradge with you, you know, co host directors, producers,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: network heads, wardrobe people and means, yeah, but now we
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: want to know whose side of you taking care Skip
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: of Shannon's.
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: That's a tough tough because I think they both have,
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: you know, compelling arguments they both have aside to their story.
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: I didn't like the way Shannon handled the Damar Hamblin
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: deal and threw Skip Bayless under the bus.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: I didn't like that at all.
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: I have to admit Shannon did become the driving force
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: on that show. He was the star of that show,
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: and I have to admit that. But did Shannon treat
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: Skip properly in my view? In my view the Damar
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: Hamblin situation, throwing him under a bus, I didn't like
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: that at all, and I understand why that doom the
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: relationship from Skip's point of view, Uh, you know, Skip's controlling,
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: uh treated you know, I think, in Shannon's mind, treated
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: Shannon as inferior and a stepchild for seven straight years
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: and probably should have given up some ground and made
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: it more of a fifty to fifty relationship in terms
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: of topics on the show and things like that.
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: I think Shannon had earned that. You know, he was
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: the star of that show.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: That is the longest we've ever let anyone talk on
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: the show. So congratulations to.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: You, because I admittedly took a nap during that answer.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Oh oh sorry, but okay, anyway, you know he's onto something, right.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: We got a problem with these athletes on TV.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: You know exactly what I was gonna say.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, these Hall of Fame athletes, they think they know
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: more than journalists.
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: Because yeah, they've been in the locker rooms and on
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: the field.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: So what that doesn't that doesn't mean they know more
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: than journalists exactly.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: So isn't Shannon from a journalistic point of view, actually
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: inferior to Skip?
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: It?
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: What about journalists from a journalation's point of view? No
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: question about it.
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: Look, I thought it was a terrible look the way
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: Shannon turned into a groupie for Lebron James.
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: Shannon's a Hall.
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: Of Fame NFL player, and he went on TV for
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: five six straight years pretending to be a Lebron James groupie.
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: I thought that was beneath Shannon, and it certainly isn't
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: journalistically sound. And so yeah, skip the superior journalist, but Shannon,
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: the superior personality.
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: That is so well said.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: You know, this is again agreement.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: Forget the debate, agreement, This embrace debate is stupid. That's
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: why we're saying, erase debate. This is what should be two,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: you know, three people getting together to agree on Yes.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: No more embrace debate. That's over.
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: Let me say this, didn't you I thought it was
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: hilarious when Shannon grabbed a Kleenex on his last day
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: and I thought he was wiping away tears.
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: Skip, when you lay your head down tonight, I just
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: want you to see one thing. Give everything I had.
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: I give you everything. That was comical to me.
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: It was like, hold on, man, y'all weren't a war,
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: y'all weren't playing football or basketball games.
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: But I give you everything. Wow.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: Honestly, I'm kind of moved by this recreation so on
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: very emotions, sand and Sharp was faking it?
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: Is that what you're saying?
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, those two you can't be liking tweets calling Skip
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: a piece of doodoo and then the next day beyond
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: air about I love you Skip, thank you so much.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: Wow, send this to the sports on me.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: That's what he was doing exactly, and it was a
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: performance where Skip is a bit more authentic.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: You know, Tony, I do agree Skip Bayless.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: When I think of authenticity in this business, I think
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: of Skip Bayless, you know.
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: And I also think of you, Jason. And you don't
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: want to know why, because.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: Even when you have takes that are terrible, you stick
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: by them. Ye. I started an article you posted today.
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: Here was the title of the article.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna read this to you, Nicola Djokitch's indifference to
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: NBA greatness speaks to the pitfall of globalism.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: So that thanks the question.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: When you wrote that article, were you trying to get
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: as few people to read it as humanly possible?
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: No? I was not.
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: I was trying to use sports to make a bigger
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: point about society at large. That's what I do all
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: the time, Guys.
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: Sounds fascinating. But all right, I keep going, yeah, go ahead,
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: I want to hear this. Take it.
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: So, I was connecting it to the larger thing that's
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: going on at large.
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: When you start bringing in foreign talent and.
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: Different cultures to America, you start losing the identity of
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: your institutions like the NBA or whatever.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: You know, I got giving me. You wrote this whole article.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: I got two words to refute it.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: Yep.
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: Give it to him, Tony.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Joel Embiid, There you go.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: Joel Embiid comes over to this country and immediately wins
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: a title. And of course we're talking about the scoring title. Yes,
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: more intensive than an NBA title. You gotta beat five
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: hundred players.
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: You can rely on your.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: Team, you can't have your teammates do it for you.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Now, what do you say, Joel Embiid proves you're totally wrong?
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: Did you listen to the Doc Rivers interview with Bill Simmons.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Boy, stop listening to Doc Rivers on not in the
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: middle of Game seven.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Just like the rest of the Sixers.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: Those guys are hard to coach.
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: Man, Joel Embid, you know, good player, but I don't
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: think he takes the game seriously enough.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Uh, scoring title, thirty three points a game.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what's your scoring average? From what I heard of
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: going on in Los Angeles?
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: It's zero?
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, zero in Los Angeles.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we heard your Saturday nights are pretty empty there,
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: whitlock yep in Nashville too.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: That's accurate.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: See, that's see, that's called journalism. That's how you do
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: it right there, how you do a journalism learn wit Locksley.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: We did the backstory.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: I am now on the subject.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: Of journal journalism. You're gonna you're gonna love this. In fact,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: you're gonna kick yourself for not realize watch this. You know,
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: you know you're you like a conspiracy, right you do.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: But you're kind of you kind of whiffed on this one.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: You know, if you're in the past week, we've seen
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: two players, two athletes from the same random country win
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: major championships. You got Novak Djokovic, a Serbian, He goes
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: and wins the French Open. Then you got another Serbian,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Nicola Djokick, he wins the NBA Finals. It makes no
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: sense how this random country is producing all these dominant
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: athletes unless you look at one thing. Jason Chernobyl nuclear
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: accident forty years ago, and then of a sudden, now
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: you've got genetic mutations now appearing in the population. Over there,
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: you got a seven footer who can shoot three points
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: like a small person. Makes no sense unless you think
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: about it, your thoughts.
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna have to give this some thought.
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: This some thought, man, This this is like, uh well,
• 18:08
  Speaker 5: the first time I ever saw a loose change about
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: nine to eleven.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: It blew my mind.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: See, he's jealoustony, he's jealous. So now he's jealous.
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: Maybe the nuclear thing has, you know, empowered these guys
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: and made them special athletes.
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna have to give this some thought.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: I just come in and admit it's a folly Tony.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: That is the finest piece of journalism I've ever heard.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: I bowed nothing close to it. Yeah.
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: No, I'm not going to say that.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: See I know it, I know it.
• 18:41
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Let me just tell yourself and Jason, you got your
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: egos too big, But you know it's all so big.
• 18:48

  Speaker 2: Hurry up?
• 19:49
  Speaker 6: You said the eighty six Celtics were better than this
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: year's Nuggets because they had more Hall of Famers.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, bro, yeah totally.
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: But you do realize all those Celtics players weren't Hall
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: of famers when they were playing, so that argument is
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: just plain idiotic.

  Speaker 1: plane that crashes.

  Speaker 6: No, you said Serbian athletes are so dominant because of

  Speaker 6: the nuclear effects of Chernobyl.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, bro, crazy, upsetting, but true.
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: Yeah, if that even was true. Nuclear radiation doesn't make
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: it stronger. You only see that happen in comic books,
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: not in real life.

• 21:02
  Speaker 6: such country called Serbia thirty years ago?
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: It's mysterious, bro, very mysterious.
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: Serbia was part of Yugoslavia, then it declared independence in
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: two thousand and six. But I shouldn't be surprised if
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: you don't know that though.
