- 7:26Speaker 4: No bad questions.
- 7:28Speaker 5: COVID Daniel Basham inside the Boy four chat, Jake thinks
- 7:33Speaker 5: running is better than aggressive mopping.
- 7:41Speaker 2: Silly. It is aggressive silly, silly me.
- 7:43Speaker 7: So I'm trying to look into Latvia. We definitely got them,
- 7:46Speaker 7: We got them. Yeah, they didn't qualify for the first
- 7:49Speaker 7: time until nineteen thirty six, and then since nineteen thirty
- 7:53Speaker 7: six they did not qualify again until two thousand and two.
- 7:57Speaker 2: Oh wow.
- 8:00Speaker 6: And in that time they finished.
- 8:01Speaker 7: Last twice, and then they the last time in twenty
- 8:05Speaker 7: twenty two it was eleventh place.
- 8:08Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, that's all we got that we got
- 8:11Speaker 4: that probably beat them up.
- 8:12Speaker 6: Have never finished better than eighth.
- 8:14Speaker 2: This might be a football score. I want to do.
- 8:19Speaker 4: Give a big I know we're a little late for
- 8:23Speaker 4: a weekend loser, okay, but a big just Olympic loser
- 8:26Speaker 4: right now to.
- 8:29Speaker 2: The team.
- 8:30Speaker 4: I don't know if you're going to call it a
- 8:31Speaker 4: construction team, a metal forging team, engineering team, whoever it
- 8:36Speaker 4: is in Italy that designed the medals. The medal the
- 8:39Speaker 4: one thing that these athletes since a kid, have been
- 8:42Speaker 4: fighting to her whole life, the right, whether it's the gold, silver, bronze.
- 8:47Speaker 4: You see people like they wait there like they win
- 8:49Speaker 4: a bronze medal and they cry because it's their life's
- 8:52Speaker 4: journey and that they came in third place.
- 8:54Speaker 2: It's great.
- 8:55Speaker 4: Some they'll have forever. Well, whoever constructed the medals this year,
- 9:00Speaker 4: terrible job. They cheaped out on them. Let's say Breezy
- 9:03Speaker 4: Johnson for the USA one gold in the downhill skiing.
- 9:07Speaker 4: She was jumping up and celebrating, like fifteen minutes after
- 9:10Speaker 4: she got it, jumping and celebrating and it fell off
- 9:13Speaker 4: her fell off the ribbon. Oh no, it couldn't fix it.
- 9:16Speaker 4: There was one girl that had a silver medal and
- 9:18Speaker 4: it split in half.
- 9:20Speaker 2: What yep?
- 9:24Speaker 6: Yeah, what the Olympics.
- 9:26Speaker 4: This is the Olympics, So now they's a trophy.
- 9:32Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
- 9:34Speaker 4: So the Italian folks there that are I guess in
- 9:37Speaker 4: charge of the Olympics, our hosting or whatever, said we
- 9:40Speaker 4: will get it fixed. Like I don't know what that
- 9:42Speaker 4: means I think one person they just gave her another
- 9:45Speaker 4: one that's not like engraved for the event or anything.
- 9:49Speaker 4: So it's kind of a yanky little situation. There we go.
- 9:53Speaker 4: She's like, I don't know what I do this thing.
- 9:55Speaker 4: It's shiny still look it up, and there's like no
- 10:01Speaker 4: way to put him back on. One of the female
- 10:04Speaker 4: athletes was quoted as saying, well, my dad's in constructions.
- 10:08Speaker 4: I just figured he could do something with it.
- 10:11Speaker 5: It's all the same the last summer, was it? The
- 10:16Speaker 5: last summer Olympics? That like they just were like.
- 10:19Speaker 8: So the gold was rubbing operating basically after like two days.
- 10:23Speaker 2: Yeah, can we be doing here? There?
- 10:25Speaker 4: Used to be like actual real medals, like with all
- 10:29Speaker 4: the money being put together for like the nil world
- 10:32Speaker 4: with college athletics. Let's pull up some money throughout the
- 10:34Speaker 4: world and let's just buy these athletes.
- 10:36Speaker 2: Some good medals. Get it fixed.
- 10:39Speaker 4: You got like Italy, I know you got a lot
- 10:41Speaker 4: of jobs when you're hosting the Olympics. I know it's
- 10:43Speaker 4: a big deal. You probably get a lot of government
- 10:45Speaker 4: funding for it. I would assume to spruce up your arenas,
- 10:50Speaker 4: spruce up your whatever the buildings are that you're hosting
- 10:54Speaker 4: any sort of game because you want to your country
- 10:56Speaker 4: wants to present. Well, well, the metal makers, you got
- 10:59Speaker 4: one job, make a metal that it doesn't fall off the
- 11:03Speaker 4: ribbon fifteen minutes.
- 11:06Speaker 2: It's bad luck for Italy.
- 11:07Speaker 4: Terrible look, terrible look girl for Canada. Was flying down
- 11:11Speaker 4: the mountain. I'm telling you, Oh, she just set the pace.
- 11:14Speaker 4: I was watching the men's downhill yesterday. Those suckers are
- 11:18Speaker 4: going seventy five miles an hour downhill.
- 11:20Speaker 2: Does your a cl hurt watching that like it does mine?
- 11:23Speaker 5: Oh my god? How are you turning that quick? Stabilizing yourself?
- 11:29Speaker 2: Like? And I'm going skiing next week.
- 11:31Speaker 4: I'll probably hit fifty five sixty tops.
- 11:36Speaker 2: Okay, yes, made me say a bad word. Get out
- 11:41Speaker 2: of here. I'll be looking like Lindsay vonn.
- 11:43Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, the one, yeah saying the one that she crashed.
- 11:49Speaker 5: She looked like a yard cell going down the hill.
- 11:50Speaker 5: With all the year, I'll be pinwheeling down that mountain. Yeah,
- 11:56Speaker 5: all right. Outside of the Matt watching the Olympics, Landra,
- 11:59Speaker 5: how was the rest of your day yesterday?
- 12:02Speaker 6: It was good.

- 12:05Speaker 7: home and I watched bad Bunnies halftime show like three
- 12:07Speaker 7: more times, and that's how we got on the Lady

- 12:15Speaker 7: This is a great song.
- 12:16Speaker 2: It's a really good song.
- 12:18Speaker 6: And it started to become like a wedding song too.
- 12:21Speaker 2: God, I had like I have aged out of wedding age.
- 12:25Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't think I will.

- 12:47Speaker 8: Think last spring March April May, I was in a
- 12:50Speaker 8: wedding three doms on a spring.
- 12:52Speaker 5: See, once you become a man, Mike Gundies age, those
- 12:57Speaker 5: slowed down. Then wait until your children. Then it's going
- 13:01Speaker 5: to pick up at some point. Yeah, they'll pick up children.
- 13:05Speaker 6: Parties and then another wedding.
- 13:09Speaker 4: Just get ready to get a little bit louder now.

- 13:20Speaker 5: A Landre We told, we told you when we were
- 13:23Speaker 5: in Nashville for the Vandy game. They tried that and

- 13:58Speaker 7: And then also they were all dancing before they played shout?
- 14:06Speaker 2: So did it clear the dance floor?
- 14:08Speaker 6: Clear the ooh?

- 14:33Speaker 8: Watching Uh eleven sixty three on Netflix.
- 14:37Speaker 2: It's awesome, Kennedy dy Yeah.
- 14:39Speaker 8: So it's it's based off a Stephen King, but basically
- 14:42Speaker 8: James Franco has to go back in time. Okay, stop

- 14:47Speaker 8: do it finish. I haven't finished it yet.
- 14:51Speaker 2: I think it's if James Franco is in and it
- 14:53Speaker 2: ain't New Bud it just came out. I think it's
- 14:56Speaker 2: no way.
- 14:56Speaker 4: Yeah, we saw the commercial for it recently.
- 14:59Speaker 2: I think it's eight episodes and I think I finished sixth.

- 15:43Speaker 4: Wild that Harvey He's not the one that shot. I mean,
- 15:46Speaker 4: I'm with you. Maybe the fact that we've never gotten
- 15:52Speaker 4: in to that on this show, it's just very shocking.
- 15:57Speaker 4: Certainly back when we did this when the the lights
- 16:01Speaker 4: were out, if you will, because it was dark, you know,
- 16:03Speaker 4: the dark the nighttime radio. True, it feels like we
- 16:06Speaker 4: would have done a full two hour episode on this.

- 19:51Speaker 5: Or if you're already feeling those things, you can go
- 19:54Speaker 5: feel better today, go see them. So many different options
- 19:57Speaker 5: for you Go flow iv dot com.
- 19:59Speaker 4: Yeah, Like I know by Baton Rouge and I could
- 20:01Speaker 4: tell you from experience here that there's a lot of
- 20:04Speaker 4: sickness going around, especially in the schools. I know there's
- 20:05Speaker 4: one school in town that shut down, your say, because
- 20:08Speaker 4: more than forty percent of its students are out because
- 20:10Speaker 4: so arm yourself, his parents going home. We know that
- 20:14Speaker 4: it's like that's what happens. You get sick because your
- 20:17Speaker 4: kids bring it home. Well boost that immune system. Put
- 20:19Speaker 4: a little armor on from the inside out. Go get
- 20:22Speaker 4: you an IVY, Go flow heavy because it's going around.
- 20:26Speaker 4: Just protect yourself. Save ittamized, say hydrated, go flow hevy.
- 20:31Speaker 5: All right, So Matt Flynn's favorite podcaster, Derek Carr, I'm
- 20:36Speaker 5: this number one listener potentially coming back to the NFL.
- 20:41Speaker 5: And of course the New Orleans Saints are the team
- 20:44Speaker 5: that hold his rights. He would still be under contract
- 20:46Speaker 5: with them. He's on their retired list, and so if
- 20:49Speaker 5: he does decide in fact to play again, it wouldn't
- 20:53Speaker 5: be where the New Orleans Saints. That's the obvious statement.
- 20:57Speaker 5: The Saints have better quarterbacks on their roster.
- 21:02Speaker 2: What let's just joke.
- 21:05Speaker 5: I was about to say, police tell me everything. So
- 21:08Speaker 5: they wouldn't move him for an asset. Now, it wouldn't
- 21:11Speaker 5: be a you know one that you would get a
- 21:14Speaker 5: first or second round pick or anything, but anything at this
- 21:17Speaker 5: point for Derek Carr right would be value. There's teams
- 21:21Speaker 5: out there, the Minnesota Vikings, I know one that's been
- 21:25Speaker 5: talked about that potentially could would maybe sort of kind
- 21:28Speaker 5: of want to add Derek Carr.
- 21:31Speaker 2: This is good news for the Saints.
- 21:33Speaker 5: There's somebody that's sitting there that you don't want, somebody
- 21:37Speaker 5: else might want him. You hold his rights, you might
- 21:40Speaker 5: can move him. And for a roster like the New
- 21:43Speaker 5: Orleans Saints, adding any piece to the draft you feel
- 21:47Speaker 5: like at certain positions is going to help you moving forward.
- 21:50Speaker 5: So I didn't think i'd say this, but I hope
- 21:53Speaker 5: Derek Carr comes back to the NFL.
- 21:55Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, So. I heard this yesterday.
- 21:59Speaker 4: They were talking about it, and because I think his
- 22:02Speaker 4: brother David was speaking on it about I don't I
- 22:05Speaker 4: don't think Derek has ever said anything, but I think
- 22:07Speaker 4: his brother David had said it, like he's open to it,
- 22:09Speaker 4: he's feeling good, he's thrown unrestricted, blah blah blah. Well,
- 22:13Speaker 4: I mean, if you look at his career stats, they're
- 22:15Speaker 4: they're not terrible, they're pretty good. I think there is
- 22:18Speaker 4: a tradable certainly a tradable asset there. And when I
- 22:20Speaker 4: was thinking about it, I was like, look, you're going
- 22:22Speaker 4: to trade him, and you're going to, you know, get
- 22:25Speaker 4: whatever you can for him, certainly, but I think and
- 22:30Speaker 4: and and this is without me probably knowing all the
- 22:33Speaker 4: knowledge of the ins and outs of his contract and
- 22:36Speaker 4: how it was restructured when he decided to retire or
- 22:40Speaker 4: not play anymore. But like I think the Saints probably
- 22:44Speaker 4: would owe it to him to say where.
- 22:46Speaker 2: Do you like, this is your options, like where do
- 22:48Speaker 2: you want to go?
- 22:50Speaker 5: Because if you traded him anywhere, he could just say, good, yeah,
- 22:53Speaker 5: I must stay retire.
- 22:55Speaker 4: He gave up a lot of money he didn't have
- 22:57Speaker 4: to because he wasn't planning for sure, and so it's
- 22:59Speaker 4: like hate Derek, Like, we can get a six by
- 23:02Speaker 4: trading you here, but these people are gonna give us
- 23:06Speaker 4: a seven, Like which.
- 23:07Speaker 2: One do you want to go to?
- 23:07Speaker 4: Like we'll set Like I think it's one of the
- 23:10Speaker 4: situations where you do right by whatever he would like
- 23:12Speaker 4: to do. He didn't do anything bad too New Orleans,
- 23:14Speaker 4: but that's you know, not play well. So yeah, this
- 23:18Speaker 4: is this is this is a good situation. You got
- 23:22Speaker 4: potentially two tradable quarterbacks right now, which is fantastic and
- 23:28Speaker 4: at a time where I mean just think about midway
- 23:30Speaker 4: through the season, we were like what assets to the
- 23:31Speaker 4: Saints have to trade at all? Now you just are
- 23:36Speaker 4: found your quarterback and now you got a you got
- 23:37Speaker 4: a couple now, so it's a great situation to be in.
- 23:41Speaker 4: So I agree with you. I hope that Derek Carr
- 23:43Speaker 4: comes to plays now. Where would he be good at?
- 23:45Speaker 4: Where could we see you? You brought up the Vikings.
- 23:51Speaker 4: I don't think that sounds right to me. I don't
- 23:52Speaker 4: feel doesn't feel right to me. I feel I feel
- 23:54Speaker 4: like this is more of a Cardinals move.
- 23:57Speaker 5: I know the Vikings has been you know, a rumor
- 24:00Speaker 5: if he did come back the Cardinals, Sure he'd want
- 24:03Speaker 5: to go there. Cardinals, you would have Kyler Murray and
- 24:05Speaker 5: Jacoby Brissett. I think under contract. Jacoby Brissett actually played
- 24:08Speaker 5: pretty well last year in place of Kyler Murray.
- 24:12Speaker 2: Maybe the Miami Dolphins. First team that came to mind.
- 24:17Speaker 8: Miami Dolphins, they're itching to move off with Tua, and
- 24:20Speaker 8: you got a new coaching staff coming in.
- 24:23Speaker 4: Well, they're the Cardinals are moving from Kyler and Jacoby
- 24:27Speaker 4: is not their answer? Yeah, But I mean, is Derek
- 24:30Speaker 4: Carr an upgrade over Jacoby Brissett right now? At this point,
- 24:34Speaker 4: I have no idea. Career stats probably say yes, well yeah,
- 24:37Speaker 4: career stats for sure.
- 24:38Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 24:39Speaker 4: Giving back to the Raiders, Yeah, y'all gonna have them
- 24:42Speaker 4: take it. He go, Tom, tell me, Yeah, who's a
- 24:47Speaker 4: character arc that is going to be a thing.
- 24:50Speaker 5: And again for the Saints, like his salaries off your
- 24:53Speaker 5: books already because he retired with you. I think it's
- 24:55Speaker 5: thirty million, right, so anything you can get for him
- 25:00Speaker 5: is laying yet at this point.
- 25:01Speaker 2: Yeah, this is like finding money in the couch kussion
- 25:04Speaker 2: right now. Yeah, and like money that folds and not
- 25:07Speaker 2: jingle Jangles.
- 25:08Speaker 1: You know.
- 25:11Speaker 5: Now you're gonna be limited as far as the teams
- 25:13Speaker 5: that are gonna be trying to because I'm sitting here
- 25:16Speaker 5: and you're looking at it's like, okay, obviously Buffalo, New England, No,
- 25:21Speaker 5: Dallas Giants, Eagles Commanders, no, Like there's easy nos for
- 25:26Speaker 5: Derek Carr. But if you're looking at the Miami Dolphins,
- 25:29Speaker 5: if you're looking, I mean the Jets just they need
- 25:32Speaker 5: to hit reset, but they certainly need a quarterback. Like
- 25:36Speaker 5: what's Pittsburgh going to do? Like is Aaron Rodgers coming back?
- 25:40Speaker 5: That's gonna be another part of the conversation. So like
- 25:42Speaker 5: it's probably about Hey, what about the Colts, right, I
- 25:46Speaker 5: mean it's Riley Leonard, Anthony Richardson because Daniel Jones gonna
- 25:51Speaker 5: be a free agent. Phillips said the whole time, like, Hey,
- 25:54Speaker 5: I'm coming back for like these three games.
- 25:55Speaker 2: That's it. I'm done. You know what's a wild thing
- 25:59Speaker 2: to think about.
- 26:03Speaker 5: Is Derek car Derek Carr doing a podcast with his
- 26:05Speaker 5: brother David this year.
- 26:06Speaker 4: That's a wild thing to think. Is Derek Carr this year? Fact,
- 26:09Speaker 4: this just popped in my head. Is Derek Carr this
- 26:11Speaker 4: year a Super Bowl quarterback? If he was a quarterback
- 26:14Speaker 4: for the Texans, Like, do the Texans make the uper?
- 26:19Speaker 4: Do they make the Super Bowl? Got a better shot
- 26:22Speaker 4: because c J. Stroud was historically just awful a lot
- 26:26Speaker 4: this year.
- 26:26Speaker 8: I mean, you know about Car the limitations. He never
- 26:29Speaker 8: made bone headed interceptions like ce Stroud did this year.
- 26:36Speaker 4: And I just kind of feeling like if the Texans
- 26:40Speaker 4: are the ones playing the Broncos in the snow, that
- 26:44Speaker 4: that Texans defense would have feasted pretty hard. Yeah, it's
- 26:51Speaker 4: an interesting thump.
- 26:52Speaker 5: I mean you could have that, I think with a
- 26:53Speaker 5: couple of teams, because Derek Carr does not but not
- 26:57Speaker 5: a couple of He's not gonna get He's not going
- 26:59Speaker 5: to go out there and be the reason I don't
- 27:01Speaker 5: think you win games but if he's the quarterback of
- 27:04Speaker 5: the Falcons, no, this year, like what like does the
- 27:08Speaker 5: Falcon season look different? I'm trying to think of teams
- 27:09Speaker 5: that were like right there at the playoffs, didn't make
- 27:12Speaker 5: the postseason, like when he put them over the top.
- 27:14Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that was my point with the Texans, Like
- 27:16Speaker 4: I think the Texans were good enough to go to
- 27:18Speaker 4: the super Bowl for sure.
- 27:19Speaker 2: No, they don't think they were good. I don't think
- 27:20Speaker 2: anybody is good enough to beat the Seahawks.
- 27:22Speaker 4: But they were good enough with a coat, like just
- 27:25Speaker 4: somewhat respectable quarterback play. They didn't even have to be good. Yeah,
- 27:29Speaker 4: it just has to be decent, just has to be
- 27:31Speaker 4: not terrible. It just has to be not terrible.
- 27:33Speaker 2: And CJ.
- 27:34Speaker 4: Stroud was terrible, legitimately the worst quarterback in the playoffs. Yeah,
- 27:39Speaker 4: and I don't think it was particularly close, which is
- 27:43Speaker 4: crazy to say. You say that two years ago, you're like,
- 27:45Speaker 4: oh my god, you put CJ. Stroud on the best
- 27:47Speaker 4: defense in the NFL. Right, good lord, Yeah you got something.
- 27:51Speaker 4: So for the New Orleans Saints, you sit in a
- 27:53Speaker 4: good position. If nothing comes of this, it's fine.
- 27:55Speaker 5: You saved thirty million dollars if something does happen, it's
- 27:59Speaker 5: great because you get an asset that you weren't counting on.
- 28:02Speaker 5: So the Saints really in a win win situation. And
- 28:05Speaker 5: the third part of that, that's a win win Derek
- 28:07Speaker 5: Carr is not going to be your quarterback. So you've
- 28:10Speaker 5: got Tyler Shuck, you've got Spencer Ratler, You've got a
- 28:13Speaker 5: healthy quarterback room. You can very easily move on from him.
- 28:17Speaker 5: Now it's about finding a team that wants to take
- 28:20Speaker 5: on Derek Carr. Give you something for Derek Carr and
- 28:23Speaker 5: one that he agrees on. So you got some work
- 28:25Speaker 5: to do. But again, it's a win win situation for
- 28:28Speaker 5: the Saints.
- 28:29Speaker 4: In the chat, Daniel Daniel Blunt says, man, it took
- 28:33Speaker 4: our money and bought a stupid car and made it
- 28:36Speaker 4: dang YouTube channel. Well, like, he did take a lot
- 28:38Speaker 4: of money, but it's not I mean he also saved
- 28:42Speaker 4: also saved you thirty by just like saying, nah, didn't
- 28:46Speaker 4: have to do that.
- 28:47Speaker 2: So he saves you thirty.
- 28:48Speaker 8: If you trade him somewhere else, you could potentially get
- 28:51Speaker 8: a second round pick or something like that.
- 28:52Speaker 2: Like you actually he ain't get a second round pick,
- 28:54Speaker 2: but depending on who it is, right, depending on how
- 28:59Speaker 2: desperate they are.
- 29:00Speaker 5: No, you can get a you can get I think
- 29:03Speaker 5: you get multiple Day three picks.
- 29:05Speaker 4: Who's got the bigger trade value at quarterback in that
- 29:08Speaker 4: quarterback room? Cars Rattler, Rattlers out for years, contract for
- 29:15Speaker 4: over forty thous Yeah, for.
- 29:17Speaker 2: Sure, but he's had injuries the last couple of years.
- 29:19Speaker 5: I mean, Spencer Ratler still finished what top twenty five
- 29:22Speaker 5: and what quarterback rating or QBR are one of those
- 29:25Speaker 5: two like at the end of.
- 29:26Speaker 2: The year, and Ratler moves a lot better than Derek
- 29:29Speaker 2: car And to be better, I agree with you. I'll
- 29:32Speaker 2: just you know posing I think.
- 29:34Speaker 6: The Raiders feels like a like go back to the Raiders.
- 29:37Speaker 5: Yeah, as somebody that roots for a team in that
- 29:40Speaker 5: division go back to the Raiders.
- 29:41Speaker 6: No, there's no he was already with him.
- 29:44Speaker 2: Oh yeah, there's no way Tom Brady like it there
- 29:47Speaker 2: Cars game.
- 29:48Speaker 5: He can draft Mendoza and then a Bridge quarterback to Mendoza.
- 29:55Speaker 4: I see, I see we're going with this. Yeah, and
- 29:59Speaker 4: Geno bridge quarterback. Yeah, the bridge crumbled.
- 30:05Speaker 2: You can have two bridges, Matt.
- 30:07Speaker 6: That is a good points the Mississippi River in case.
- 30:10Speaker 2: Yeah, Derek could be the new bridge.
- 30:12Speaker 6: I guess.
- 30:16Speaker 2: That's the worst, literally the worst bridge in America.
- 30:19Speaker 4: Why it is it's like that, like from an engineering standpoint,
- 30:25Speaker 4: the one's.
- 30:26Speaker 6: Like straight up, yeah, it's literally decrepit.
- 30:28Speaker 4: Really yeah, that's fun. It's right the worst. So if
- 30:31Speaker 4: you're driving now and.
- 30:33Speaker 5: You're hold that literally right now, travels I did not
- 30:37Speaker 5: know that. Not gonna do all the investigating.
- 30:41Speaker 6: Like the government literally said that bridge, this bridge is
- 30:46Speaker 6: not what's up bridges?
- 30:47Speaker 2: Cool? All right, good thing. Nobody drives on that. Yeah,
- 30:52Speaker 2: good thing. I've never been on stop traffic on top
- 30:55Speaker 2: of it to the top of a ferry. They were
- 30:58Speaker 2: putting weight on it. You want to do that? All right? Well,
- 31:02Speaker 2: if you're on that bridge just kidding, well, let's just
- 31:07Speaker 2: play it.
- 31:09Speaker 6: No, I'd be worried.
- 31:10Speaker 2: Then you'll said, I think you got an F grade.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Oh that's cool, all right. Yeah.
- 31:13Speaker 5: So that's the latest with Derek Carr and the New
- 31:16Speaker 5: Orleans Saints, And when Nick Underhill joins us at nine am,
- 31:20Speaker 5: obviously he'll have all the latest there and probably some
- 31:22Speaker 5: of the teams that might be interested in Derek Carr.

- 34:15Speaker 2: right yep, yeah.
- 34:18Speaker 6: Police.
- 34:20Speaker 4: Or we got USA going down this mountain right now. No,
- 34:22Speaker 4: I thought you were about to, like talking about stinging
- 34:25Speaker 4: the police. I'm thought, I'm thinking about America dominating the world.
- 34:31Speaker 4: I also just got an education on bridge engineering as.
- 34:35Speaker 2: Well at the right. Yeah, won't you give those facts
- 34:38Speaker 2: that you were throwing out there? Do we want to
- 34:39Speaker 2: hear them? I think we should.
- 34:40Speaker 5: I think we got to keep our listeners, okay, alive
- 34:43Speaker 5: and well there in the Late Charles area, Okay. The
- 34:46Speaker 5: attend Calcashu River Bridge Lake Charles consistently ranked among the
- 34:49Speaker 5: most dangerous and structurally deficient bridges in the US open
- 34:53Speaker 5: in nineteen fifty two. The seventy plus year old bridge
- 34:56Speaker 5: was designed for thirty seven thousand vehicles daily, but now
- 35:00Speaker 5: carries eighty to ninety thousand. The bridge has received extremely
- 35:06Speaker 5: low National Bridge Inventory Sufficiency ratings the NBI obviously reports
- 35:12Speaker 5: ranging from nine point nine to six point six. And
- 35:15Speaker 5: you would probably think, oh out of ten, right, nah,
- 35:18Speaker 5: six point six out of one hundred? No, mmm, no, yep.
- 35:27Speaker 4: Actually deficient features features rusting beams, crumbling rivets, dangerous steep grades,
- 35:32Speaker 4: no shoulders.
- 35:34Speaker 2: I'm sure they're fixing it them so that as a
- 35:36Speaker 2: plan in place.
- 35:37Speaker 4: I don't know what the plan is now how long
- 35:40Speaker 4: this plan will take, but I mean, can you imagine,
- 35:42Speaker 4: like how do you like just make a new bridge
- 35:44Speaker 4: right there?
- 35:44Speaker 5: You just got to start like building it next next
- 35:46Speaker 5: d you can't. Yeah, you can't two lane that deal
- 35:50Speaker 5: that that'd be a nightmare for everybody there.
- 35:51Speaker 2: It's just immediate, Like you gotta start.
- 35:53Speaker 4: Building an easy situation now that just because it has
- 35:55Speaker 4: a bad rating, it doesn't mean like it's going to
- 35:57Speaker 4: collapse or anything.
- 35:58Speaker 5: It's just so it's not good, buddy, when you're talking
- 36:02Speaker 5: about a six point six out of one hundred, I
- 36:05Speaker 5: don't drive that way unless I'm going to Houston, and
- 36:08Speaker 5: I don't go to Houston very often.
- 36:11Speaker 2: It's not a fun drive.
- 36:13Speaker 5: But when something's made for thirty seven thousand, you said,
- 36:20Speaker 5: and it's got like ninety thousand.
- 36:22Speaker 4: Seventy years ago tripling. Now, Taylor, you had a little
- 36:26Speaker 4: experience with these bridge ratings as well.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Yeah, we had a.
- 36:29Speaker 8: Bridge back in the day and Walker it was a
- 36:32Speaker 8: four out of one hundred. We had that thing for
- 36:34Speaker 8: like ten years too.
- 36:35Speaker 2: That's fine. School bus used to go girls like every day.
- 36:39Speaker 2: Oh yeah, fixed it up.
- 36:41Speaker 8: Yeah, Well, yeah, it's been fixed like a six or seven. Now,
- 36:45Speaker 8: I don't know, it's better than four. The big doubled it.
- 36:48Speaker 8: It's probably an eight.
- 36:50Speaker 2: Yep they had lifted up and I want to La
- 36:52Speaker 2: Charles's steep as hell too. This one wasn't very big.
- 36:55Speaker 2: I mean it was probably a little bit longer than
- 36:57Speaker 2: this room. Like it wasn't.
- 37:01Speaker 5: We we have a bridge like that connecting Shreeve board
- 37:03Speaker 5: in Bosure, the Jimmy Davis Bridge, And like they didn't
- 37:09Speaker 5: even really try to hide it with like a code
- 37:11Speaker 5: of pain either.
- 37:12Speaker 2: It's like she's gonna be rusted. This just what's gonna be.
- 37:16Speaker 5: So they finally started this last time I got now,
- 37:20Speaker 5: last time I was home. I guess it would have
- 37:22Speaker 5: been maybe around Christmas time. They started to build a
- 37:26Speaker 5: brand new bridge next to it. They're like, hey, because
- 37:30Speaker 5: that one that one has like there's some rare bird
- 37:35Speaker 5: or something that made its home on the bridge, and
- 37:39Speaker 5: like they can't tear it down because of that. So
- 37:42Speaker 5: they're building, yes, And so they're building one like next
- 37:46Speaker 5: to it, and they're going to like enclose that bridge
- 37:49Speaker 5: kind of like enclose pieces of it and make it
- 37:51Speaker 5: like a natural park or something.
- 37:55Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 37:56Speaker 5: If you're listening in Treeporter Bosure. Again, I had lived
- 37:59Speaker 5: there in a very long time. Now I think I
- 38:03Speaker 5: have that right. I think I have that.
- 38:06Speaker 4: Gotta be an eagle. We'll do some research on the
- 38:08Speaker 4: old They're not like endangered by any means. What kind
- 38:14Speaker 4: of bird could it have been? Is it a Dodo?
- 38:17Speaker 4: They're coming back?
- 38:18Speaker 7: No?
- 38:19Speaker 2: That Dodo birds in this studio that I'm sitting right here.
- 38:26Speaker 4: Okay, I was gonna blame fled, blame yourself, fair enough, Loga,
- 38:32Speaker 4: you missed the the stat that the electoral bridge is
- 38:35Speaker 4: a six point six out of one hundred rating.
- 38:38Speaker 6: That makes sense, Yeah, it really does.
- 38:41Speaker 2: Good thing is not steep though.
- 38:43Speaker 6: Yeah, good thing is not super high up.
- 38:45Speaker 2: I mean I feel like if you're rated that low,
- 38:47Speaker 2: like you you're inoperab.
- 38:48Speaker 6: But also, wouldn't you just fall into some water?
- 38:50Speaker 2: Yeah? Like, if you're rated that, I think that's a
- 38:52Speaker 2: that they're not properly ranked.
- 38:56Speaker 6: You just fall into water.
- 38:57Speaker 4: Any failing grade, but like a six point six out
- 38:59Speaker 4: of one hundred, you got your making it. If you
- 39:02Speaker 4: fall into water from that high bridge, you're.
- 39:04Speaker 6: Wondering is it super shallow or something?
- 39:10Speaker 5: Now, I just think the impact would hitting water from
- 39:13Speaker 5: certain heights is like hitting concrete.
- 39:15Speaker 2: I guess so you even MythBuster. Yeah, I used to
- 39:21Speaker 2: click at or ticket though.
- 39:22Speaker 6: Who's gonna myth bust MythBusters.
- 39:24Speaker 2: Licked her ticket. You're gonna be buckled and.
- 39:29Speaker 6: What's got.
- 39:32Speaker 2: Ye, it's gonna do anything for you. She'd probably prefer
- 39:36Speaker 2: not to be buckled in. If you go into the water.
- 39:40Speaker 2: Mm hmm, you should get out quicker.
- 39:43Speaker 7: I'm pretty sure Joe Biden like went to the bridge
- 39:47Speaker 7: and did like a press conference by the bridge and
- 39:50Speaker 7: was like, this bridge is.
- 39:51Speaker 2: Terrible, Like Charles, why how long could that speech actually take?
- 39:56Speaker 3: There?
- 39:56Speaker 2: Like I mean with probably does bridge sucks? You can't
- 40:00Speaker 2: really get words out later, not really gonna take any questions.
- 40:03Speaker 2: This bridge sucks. You leaves crushed it. Fist buffs, Jill.
- 40:15Speaker 6: Bump jill. Sobuddy, he was there in twenty twenty one.
- 40:21Speaker 2: Uh, I mean, I know we're sitting here throwing stones, but.
- 40:28Speaker 4: Bill Wilkinson Bridge, it's it's like right there, yeah, but
- 40:32Speaker 4: it knows that Mississippi River Bridge, the New Bridge for
- 40:36Speaker 4: like forty years have.
- 40:37Speaker 2: Been called the New Bridge.
- 40:38Speaker 5: Pretty longer than that, probably more like sixty years at
- 40:43Speaker 5: this point Uh, that was probably not like one we
- 40:47Speaker 5: should be acting.
- 40:48Speaker 9: Like that, and.
- 40:50Speaker 6: That one also for sure probably. Yeah.
- 40:53Speaker 4: They all bridges, older bridges, and again we're not saying
- 40:56Speaker 4: it's probably I don't feel good, like on the Pazu
- 40:57Speaker 4: train bridge and that's like the longest one we have.
- 41:00Speaker 2: But like if you're one hundred oh, you would think
- 41:04Speaker 2: that like.
- 41:05Speaker 5: Nothing but water. And actually if you fell into that one,
- 41:08Speaker 5: then elid year theory, you'd be okay, Yeah, you'd be
- 41:11Speaker 5: able to get out.
- 41:12Speaker 6: I feel like you're you're close enough.
- 41:13Speaker 2: To the water. Yeah, might hurt, you'd be okay.
- 41:19Speaker 6: That was always my thing. In Corpus, there's like a
- 41:21Speaker 6: really high long bridge in Corpus. That'd be so scared.
- 41:25Speaker 2: You'll have bridges in Tyler probably, oh yeah, a lot
- 41:28Speaker 2: of bridges.
- 41:29Speaker 6: The old Tyler Bridge.
- 41:31Speaker 5: Yeah, old Tyler Bridge, tallest building and Tyler. If you
- 41:35Speaker 5: jumped off top of the only thing you do is
- 41:36Speaker 5: sprain your ankle. And on that note, we'll take a
- 41:38Speaker 5: break more OTB when we come back off the bench.
- 41:42Speaker 2: If you didn't land on your feet.
- 41:43Speaker 4: All right, go to Balley's Batteries, casino and Hotel Spring New.

- 43:35Speaker 4: and right and uh yeah, secured third place. It's a
- 43:40Speaker 4: big deal.
- 43:40Speaker 2: They were. They were pretty fired up about it.
- 43:42Speaker 4: They secured third and I think another American team came

- 43:51Speaker 4: bronze medal. I didn't catch the screen flashback to quick
