1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 1: Is Tony Pike since e three sixty about Cincinnati. From Cincinnati,

2
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:10,799
Speaker 1: this is ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station.

3
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 2: Welcome back since the three sixty ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati

4
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 2: Sports Station our number two. Thanks for joining us. We'll

5
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 2: grab some more phone calls along the way, and I

6
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 2: want to get to more of a Reds conversation. We

7
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 2: also have a little bit of a City Connect announcement

8
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 2: here Austin.

9
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know if you saw earlier this week

10
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,480
Speaker 3: what is believed the leak to be the Reds new

11
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 3: City Connect uniforms was leaked, and I think every single

12
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 3: new edition of the City Connect uniforms across baseball has

13
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 3: been leaked by somebody other than the actual teams. The

14
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 3: Reds are do for an update on their City Connect

15
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 3: and they just posted a video on their social media

16
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 3: that says on April ninth, so a week from today

17
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 3: today they will announce or unveil whatever is next in

18
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,839
Speaker 3: their City Connect series. Now, if you remember, the Reds

19
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 3: on Friday nights typically where their City Connect uniforms, So

20
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 3: a week from today would obviously be a Thursday night

21
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 3: prior to a home Friday night game against the Los

22
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 3: Angeles Angels next week. So I would assume this is

23
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 3: an assumption that the Reds will unveil these uniforms a

24
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 3: week from now and wear them eight days from now

25
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 3: at Great American Ballpark.

26
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 2: Now, if you have seen the league and Austin, you've

27
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 2: seen this, are you in favor of the Red with

28
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 2: the pinstripe? Look?

29
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 3: I need to see the entire ensem. Do they go

30
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 3: red pants as well? I would like that. I think

31
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 3: it would look best if they went with the red pants. However,

32
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 3: there is a splash of white on the front with

33
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 3: that sea, so it's the same City connect sea, but

34
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 3: it's basically a white colorway of that sea, and the

35
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 3: name on the back is white. So it makes me

36
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 3: wonder where's the rest of the white in the uniform?

37
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 3: Is it gonna come from the pants? Is it going

38
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 3: to be a part of the hat? I need to

39
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 3: see the rest of it before I make up my

40
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 3: entire decision. I've always been kind of indifferent on the

41
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,119
Speaker 3: City Connects. I didn't love the black ones. I thought

42
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 3: they're cool, but they're fine. I didn't love them. This

43
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 3: is basically the same font and style, the same branding,

44
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 3: all the same logo, but I'm assuming it's a different

45
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 3: colorway with the red jersey and maybe red pants. I

46
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 3: don't think the Reds have ever had a full red uniform.

47
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 3: I think there was a period of time where they

48
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 3: did have a red pant that they wore with white jerseys,

49
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 3: but I don't think they ever had red on red.

50
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,519
Speaker 2: Let me ask you a couple of other I'd be

51
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 2: open to that would too. They shod a couple of

52
00:02:55,840 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 2: the Reds related questions. Okay, last year. Over the course

53
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 2: of the season, Matt McLean batted two twenty. Matt McLean

54
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 2: got the good year this year and by all accounts

55
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,679
Speaker 2: looked like a completely different person. He has since started

56
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: a little bit slow again this year. We mentioned yesterday

57
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 2: it didn't look like he had any sense of understanding

58
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 2: what Paul Skenes was throwing out of me. Struck out

59
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 2: three times at the dish yesterday. Is it too early

60
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: for you, because I'm looking bigger picture and I know

61
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 2: what he did in spring training, also know what he

62
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: did for the extent of all last year. When you

63
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 2: look at big picture, small six game sample size, do

64
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 2: you have much concern right now around Mat McLean?

65
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 4: No?

66
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 3: I think it's unfair to all these players to make

67
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 3: sweeping statements about them and who they are. What about

68
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 3: a last year? Sure, I think it's fair too.

69
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 2: Well, then that wouldn't be sweeping. That would be one

70
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty two games of him being terrible last year.

71
00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 3: I think it's fair to question Matt McLean. I don't

72
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 3: think it's fair to say, Okay, well, twenty twenty six

73
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 3: is going to be exactly the way twenty twenty five was.

74
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 3: The thing I look for is like, how do you

75
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 3: look in the box? And I think yesterday was the

76
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 3: first time where it was like, man, Matt looks like

77
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 3: he's really struggling to pick up the baseball. And again,

78
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 3: that's against Paul Schimes. That's not an easy task by

79
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 3: any stretch of the imagination. He's still putting together what

80
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 3: I believe are competitive at bats yesterday. Notwithstanding, I think

81
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 3: he still looks comfortable in the plate. At the plate,

82
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 3: I don't see signs of major issues for Matt McClain

83
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 3: through the first six games.

84
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 2: What I think is a little troublesome is four of

85
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 2: your five top hitters in the lineup are the top

86
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 2: four team are tied for first and second in strikeouts

87
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 2: Ellie and Gino at ten. We knew that was going

88
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 2: to be the case. Friedel and McClain have already struck

89
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 2: out eight times. You don't want that swing and misrate

90
00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 2: with your leadoff hitter in TJ. Friedel, throw another name

91
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 2: at you, because I think it's pretty known at this

92
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 2: point he doesn't hit Key Brian Hayes. Because the conversation

93
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 2: around Key Brian Hayes is he very well could be

94
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: the best fielding player in baseball, especially at third base.

95
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 2: You could also make the case that he is one of,

96
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 2: if not the worst hitters in baseball that plays on

97
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 2: a regular basis. Not a situational hitter, but a guy

98
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 2: who plays on a regular basis. We know this about

99
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 2: Key Brian Hayes. I don't think anyone here is thinking, Okay,

100
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 2: can Key Brian Hayes hit two to eighty for this team?

101
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 2: But there is a threshold that you've got to reach

102
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 2: if you're Key Brian Hayes. Where are you at right now? Again?

103
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 2: Six games in, he's hitting point zero eight three on

104
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,919
Speaker 2: the year, And this to me, with where the lineup

105
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 2: is and potentially where the lineup is going, I feel

106
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 2: like this is one of the players you circle and say, Okay,

107
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 2: how is this going to be addressed if it doesn't

108
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 2: get better?

109
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, Key, Brian Hayes is exactly who we all thought

110
00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 3: he was.

111
00:05:58,920 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 2: Uh.

112
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 3: What's interesting about him is he hasn't struck out once.

113
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 3: He's making contact and he has driven the ball hard

114
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 3: at times, but it's not resulting in anything, so it

115
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 3: doesn't really matter. He has drawn a couple of walks.

116
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 3: He hasn't been completely useless. I mean, he's not been

117
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 3: very much use, but he hasn't been completely useless. He's

118
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 3: exactly what I've expected him to be. I like that

119
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 3: he makes contact. I like that he's not just a

120
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 3: strikeout every single time. But this is the issue with

121
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 3: the way that they've built the roster, and it was

122
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,919
Speaker 3: our issue throughout spring training. It's our issue now. I

123
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 3: think the Reds have it assed backwards right now. I

124
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 3: think he Brian Hayes should be coming in in the sixth, seventh,

125
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 3: and eighth like Dane Myers does. I don't think he

126
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 3: should be starting games at third base. And if you

127
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 3: are a continually offensively challenged team like this club has

128
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 3: been through the first six games and was for one

129
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 3: hundred and sixty four games last year. You need to

130
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 3: do something to spark that offense a little bit. And

131
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 3: if that means taking a chance defensively, and I understand

132
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 3: defense matters, I'm not saying it doesn't. But if that

133
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 3: means you're gonna risk it a little bit more defensively,

134
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 3: I think there's something to that that can help you

135
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:13,679
Speaker 3: get a lead.

136
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 2: And bring him in late. Right. That's I know, that's simple.

137
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 2: I just don't understand why that's not more the case.

138
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 2: Let me ask you about the outfield, because we talk

139
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 2: about shifting guys and where guys are gonna play, and

140
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 2: you're just constantly seeing guys in different positions are playing

141
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 2: and not playing. I look at a guy in Noove

142
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 2: Marte and Will Benson, who are seemingly splitting time in

143
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 2: the outfield right now. Can you be successful over the

144
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 2: course of one sixty two by platooning as much as

145
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 2: the Reds seemingly are going to platoon noelve A. Marte

146
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 2: is still looking for his first hit on the year

147
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 2: and only eight at bats. But is Marte the type

148
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 2: of player that deserves or needs consistent at bats in

149
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 2: the same way we talk about ree Hines or do

150
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 2: you go the length of a season trying to platoon

151
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 2: in the outfield as much as this Reds team does.

152
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 3: Can you be successful platooning? Yes, I think you can.

153
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 3: Can you be successful platooning with these guys? No, I

154
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 3: don't think you can. Because Weelvie Marte his career reverse

155
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 3: splits like he's got reverse splitz. He can't hit left handers. Okay, well,

156
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 3: Will Benson can't hit left handers either. He's not going

157
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 3: to be in the lineup against lefties. So then you

158
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 3: revert to no, Weelvi Marte. Meanwhile, Benson's in the lineup

159
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 3: against right right. It doesn't really make sense.

160
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 2: And if you go to Reese Hines, what's that look like?

161
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 2: Because he's a guy who needs consistent at bots. That's

162
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: why he's down in Triple A according to Terry Francona, because

163
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 2: he needs consistent at bats.

164
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 3: And I think you could very much make the argument

165
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 3: that right now, Reese Hines provides the most complete player

166
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 3: option out there. He's probably the best defensive outfielder they

167
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 3: have in the system, I would think, and has the

168
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 3: hottest bat in the entire organization. Correct, So I think

169
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 3: there's a af to that. I wonder how long the

170
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 3: Reds are willing to wait on the offense for that

171
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 3: position or those outfield guys to come around before they

172
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 3: look around and say, all right, screw it, We're gonna

173
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 3: give re Signs a chance to play every single day.

174
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 2: Speaking of coming around, at some point, it's got a

175
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 2: shift for some of these players. Spencer Steer is one

176
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,439
Speaker 2: for seventeen with seven strikeouts, Tyler Stevenson one for thirteen,

177
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 2: and TJ. Friedl Is two for twenty two. Out of

178
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 2: those three players, who gets it turned around the quickest.

179
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say Spencer Steer just because I think he's

180
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 3: the best hitter out of all of them.

181
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 2: Okay, had some weird at bats, I feel like, because

182
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 2: I feel like there's some competitive at bats, and then

183
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 2: I feel like there's times where he just looks lost

184
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 2: at the plate.

185
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 3: He's had two long fly balls that in July might

186
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 3: be homers in that ballpark and could be the difference

187
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 3: between the Reds being three and three and five and one.

188
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 3: And he might just be one of those guys who's

189
00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 3: a notoriously slow starter, you know. That could be what

190
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 3: it is with Spencer Steer. He is moving around a lot.

191
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 3: I don't think that plays a role in it. I

192
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 3: just think he's the best hitter, and I agree with

193
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 3: I stand by what I said earlier that it's too

194
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 3: early to make these statements, but when we look at

195
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 3: trends that are beginning to emerge, that you earmark that

196
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 3: you pay close attention to. For me, it would be TJ. Friedel,

197
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:24,079
Speaker 3: a guy who, from a defensive standpoint, is not a

198
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 3: very good center fielder. All the defensive metrics will tell

199
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 3: you that he's below average. He doesn't have the elite speed,

200
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 3: he doesn't have a great arm. Like the Reds like

201
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 3: have these moments where they care deeply about defense in

202
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 3: third base, but they don't at center field, and they

203
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 3: don't in the corner outfield spots where there are liabilities

204
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:48,559
Speaker 3: at those positions. So I'm curious to see what the

205
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 3: future holds for TJ. Friedel, because just as concerning as

206
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 3: his start has been, Dane Meyer's start has been very impressive.

207
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 3: Four hits in nine at bat and it's obviously an

208
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 3: insane clip, but he's also done it against right handers.

209
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 3: He's got two big hits against right handers, and that

210
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 3: was the knock on him that he can't hit right

211
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 3: handed pitching, so I wonder, I just I want to

212
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 3: know what the threshold is before the Reds start deciding

213
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 3: it's time to tinker correct. And because of your your

214
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 3: comment of slow starts have plagued this team and the

215
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 3: importance of the month of April with what the schedule is,

216
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 3: you don't have the benefit of doubt and say, well,

217
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 3: let's just wait another week and let him hit himself

218
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 3: out of it.

219
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 2: You got to win in April. Yep, you do.

220
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 3: And so that's my These are the things that I'm

221
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 3: paying attention to that I'm kind of concerned about. I'm

222
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 3: not ready to, you know, give up on these dudes yet.

223
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 3: I think that would be foolish. But I do think

224
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 3: of that month of September against San Diego Milwaukee and

225
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,079
Speaker 3: the Dodgers and the Braves and the Blue Jays and

226
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 3: the Cubs, and think, Ahi, it's this team gonna be

227
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 3: able to even make it that far with games to

228
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 3: play that matter.

229
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, before we get to talk backs, we'll grab a

230
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 2: phone call like what's going on.

231
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 4: Hey, thanks, you guys appreciate it. On that point. You're

232
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 4: just making I think when you have as far as

233
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 4: uh flow starts. I think when you have veteran, proven players,

234
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 4: possibly all stars, that are off to slow starts, you

235
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 4: don't worry about it as much unless they're having terrible

236
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 4: injury issues as much as you do younger guys who

237
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 4: haven't proven themselves yet. So I think there is a good,

238
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 4: good reason to have a little bit of concern. It

239
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 4: is early, but I typically you're going to see veteran

240
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 4: hitters come around quicker than you're going to see maybe

241
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,719
Speaker 4: the young guys who haven't truly proven themselves yet. So

242
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 4: we just we just got to hope that's what goes down.

243
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 4: I got a quick football question for you. Who was

244
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 4: the first left handed quarterback to win a Super Bowl?

245
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 3: Man, I've heard this, born heard this before. I know

246
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 3: it's like a trick question.

247
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 4: No, no, no, it's not tricky Austin, it's not.

248
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 2: It's not.

249
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,840
Speaker 4: It really is. But you guys, you know it's just

250
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 4: way before your time. But it's not like Art was it.

251
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:17,559
Speaker 3: It's not Steve Young it was it was correct.

252
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 2: I don't remember, Yeah, I don't know.

253
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 4: Kenny Stabler for the Raiders, the Snake from Alabama played

254
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 4: for Bear Bryant and uh yeah, they beat the they

255
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 4: beat the Minnesota VIKA with their butt Super Bowl eleven,

256
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 4: and then Stabler took them the Raiders this five straight

257
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 4: AFC Championship game. So he's a guy you don't hear

258
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 4: about much because he passed. Well, they gave him his

259
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 4: Hall of Fame thing posthumously, but I just thought I'd

260
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 4: run that because the guy was really good. It's really good.

261
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 4: Did you hear what Sandy Alcantara did last night after

262
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 4: his complete game?

263
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 5: No?

264
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 2: Not after not after all? Yeah, yeah, because he didn't

265
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 2: in front of what about five thousand fans in Miami.

266
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's had it. He said, look, you know he's

267
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 4: been a fe fans. Yeah, you can't blame the guy.

268
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 4: And he's spent his whole career in Miami. You can

269
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 4: imagine the amount of frustration that guy's looked with and

270
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 4: he's been cool about it. But finally he said, you

271
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,800
Speaker 4: people aren't even grateful. You know, you're yep, we probably

272
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 4: shouldn't even be here anymore. We should be in another city.

273
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 3: In defense of the fans, it was a twelve forty

274
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 3: game on a Wednesday. There's not a lot not a

275
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 3: lot of those games across baseball are getting sold out.

276
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 2: I tell you're not going to get a lot anymore

277
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 2: as a complete game with ninety three pitches like Alcantara

278
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 2: did yesterday.

279
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 3: A maddox they called a maddox.

280
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 4: But he has had many of those in his career

281
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 4: because he's been a stud for a long time. But

282
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 4: the problem is the problem is they never could draw

283
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 4: people ever.

284
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 3: No, he's Miami.

285
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 2: He never Now his starts have come against the Rockies

286
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 2: in the White Sox, but so far he's gone sixteen

287
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 2: innings and not allowed to earn run. He has struck

288
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 2: out twelve and only walked two. His next start will

289
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 2: come against the Cincinnati Reds.

290
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, so hopefully we can catch him and him a

291
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 4: little bit. Hey, I got a quick you on the NBA.

292
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 4: Oh no. Mark was talking earlier about closures going to

293
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 4: uh swamps too. But when you really look at the

294
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 4: all time studs like Rivera oh yeah, and Raleighers and

295
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 4: Goose Gossage and Bruce Suiter and Trevor Hoffman and Randy

296
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 4: Myers and Rob Dibble and even Diez and Chapman, these

297
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 4: guys rarely go into any kind of swamp.

298
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 2: Sure rare. The consistency is there yep.

299
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 4: And then with the NBA. I don't see how Joker

300
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 4: is not in the in the in the in the MV,

301
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 4: in the MVT thing. He's got thirty one triple He's

302
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 4: everything triple doubles.

303
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's almost like they don't value triple doubles like

304
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 2: they used to.

305
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 4: No, and STA gets away with matt on fouls. It's bad.

306
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 4: They got to do something about that. So anyway, I know,

307
00:15:58,400 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 4: you got to go guys.

308
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 2: Thanks a lot, Thanks Mike, I appreciate it. To wrap

309
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 2: Austin the Reds and the Pirates. I saw an interview

310
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 2: with Faul s Kens. Did you see after they're hitting

311
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 2: home runs they had the traffic cone?

312
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't really know.

313
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 2: Did you see the story behind this? So he was

314
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 2: asked about it on an appearance. He did because they're saying,

315
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 2: hoist the cone now in Pittsburgh and uh, Paul Skeen says, well,

316
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 2: we found a traffic cone before the Tuesday game in Cincinnati.

317
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 2: They just found it and they brought it into the

318
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 2: dugout and they hoisted now on home runs.

319
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 3: Okay, so we should press charges against the they stole

320
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 3: from the city of Cincinnati.

321
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, he said. The cone has been getting a lot

322
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 2: of years recently. No one knows what hoist the cone means, okay,

323
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 2: but they found it.

324
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 3: He also said something weird after the game. Paul said

325
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 3: that he has spent more time in Cincinnati the last

326
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 3: six months than he has in Pittsburgh.

327
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

328
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's just because, like they ended

329
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 3: the season in Cincinnati and they're back here early on.

330
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know if him and Vi

331
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 3: have been hanging out with Joe Burrow. I know they're

332
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 3: all friends from LSU about that, but I mean, Paul

333
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 3: Skeen's future red Wow, all right, I'll give up Lodolo,

334
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,640
Speaker 3: Abbot and Green for Paul Skeens, would you yes?

335
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, Skeen's burns Louder singer. Oh my gosh, Williamson, could

336
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 2: you imagine talkbacks? Happy birthday, Brandon Williamson, SINCI three sixty,

Speaker 7: Press the microphone and record your message for Austin and Tone.

341
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 3: Please keep it clean and don't be mean.

342
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,120
Speaker 7: And a sprinkle sprinkle drip drips.

343
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 2: It's that time for talkbacks.

344
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 7: It's our favorite part since three sixty. So Austin, buddy,

345
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 7: play those talkbacks on your screen and please tride not

346
00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 7: to cybotage.

347
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,160
Speaker 2: Quick before we get into talkbacks. I had one question

348
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 2: I didn't get to you yet. Okay, I had one

349
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 2: for you too, you know. I saw earlier today that

350
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 2: ESPN is set to reportedly move on from their number

351
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 2: two Monday night football team with Lewis Riddick and dan

352
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 2: Orlovsky and Chris Fowler and early steps that is believed

353
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 2: that that will go to Kurt Warner and Jason Kelsey.

354
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 2: I also saw that Jason Kelsey is going to be

355
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 2: sent to the Masters to do the par three Challenge

356
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 2: on Wednesday of the Masters week. I'm a big Jason

357
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 2: Kelcey fan. Are they doing too much with Jason Kelsey? Yes?

358
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 3: This is what they do too much. This is what

359
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 3: ESPN does. They force people down your throat when you

360
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 3: don't want to see. If they put Steven a on everything,

361
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 3: they've been Kelsey on everything, like he's everywhere?

362
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 8: What like?

363
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 2: I just want to see him like on a board

364
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 2: breaking down on line play.

365
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 3: I think you take away well, that's because his personality

366
00:18:54,560 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 3: is so eclectic that like, they don't do that stuff

367
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 3: with him. And also they're not interested in teaching people football.

368
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 3: They just don't. And that's why I'm concerned about the

369
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 3: merger with NFL Network. In ESPN, I could do three

370
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 3: hours on this alone. That's also the reason why those

371
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 3: guys aren't going to be doing those games anymore. There's

372
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:18,879
Speaker 3: also not going to be two Monday night games at

373
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 3: the same time anymore. That's being changed. But yeah, I

374
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 3: mean now they have access to all the NFL Network

375
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 3: talent and so they're probably going to change those booths.

376
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 3: But I really don't want Jason Kelcey at the Masters.

377
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 3: I don't want him doing stuff that's not football. Yeah,

378
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 3: I think that's fair. It's almost like they're almost kind

379
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 3: of treating him like a Marshaw Lynch and Marshan. Okay,

380
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 3: I could see that, but even then, you don't see

381
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 3: Marshaan all the time. Anyways, I was thinking, you know,

382
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 3: the last time the Reds did the City Connect jerseys,

383
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 3: there was a whole bunch of them sent out around

384
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 3: the city, a lot of them. We were not on

385
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 3: that list. No, do you think we make the list

386
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,880
Speaker 3: this time. If they do it, Gosh, I hope so, so.

387
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,199
Speaker 2: Are you betting yes or no? I would still bet no.

388
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 2: And it's kind of like hedging a bet in sports,

389
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 2: like for the team you like, I'm I'm I'm hoping

390
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 2: by saying no, I'm wrong, okay, and that we do.

391
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 2: I'd sure like.

392
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 9: One guys, Victa who in Kentucky. I've seen video of

393
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 9: Burrow in LA with his girlfriend going to a pool party.

394
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 9: I like the fact that he's carrying the football with him.

395
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 9: To tell you what I don't like. You know the

396
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 9: narratives out there that he wants to be in LA,

397
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,679
Speaker 9: He's going to replace Stafford and this or that. Then

398
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 9: why are you adding to the narrative. You're always in

399
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 9: Los Angeles, You're never in Cincinnati. Why are you not

400
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,880
Speaker 9: here working out? It's one thing if you're winning here,

401
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 9: but you haven't won in three years. It's a make

402
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 9: or break year because if you don't win this year,

403
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 9: I say, go to LA. But why are you always

404
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 9: out there or not here? Chador is in the facility

405
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 9: grinding in Cleveland.

406
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,160
Speaker 2: They say, well, Chador's got a lot more to prove

407
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 2: than Joe Burrow. Other I I couldn't like it, and

408
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 2: it was obviously a much different level. When the season ended,

409
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 2: I wanted to get out of Carolina. I loved living

410
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 2: in Carolina. I liked being on the team. There's just

411
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 2: something about the grind of the season that you need

412
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 2: to get away, in my opinion, in the off season.

413
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 3: Every year that Joe Burrow has been the quarterback of

414
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 3: the Cincinnati Bengals, he goes to California in the offseason.

415
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 2: It's not new.

416
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 3: It's different because he's done events in California and because

417
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,200
Speaker 3: of who he's dating. Allegedly he gets pictures taken of

418
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 3: him all the time. Yeah, but it is he for

419
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 3: he used to go out there and train with Jordan Palmer.

420
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 3: He goes and hangs out with Nick and Joey Bosa.

421
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 3: They're best friends from Ohio State.

422
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 10: Like, this is not new, correct, Well, what happened fellas,

423
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 10: I mean a reason to red shitt that took that

424
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 10: series from the Pirates just this absolutely Blullot sent me

425
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 10: drop him too straight to a division rival, losing that

426
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 10: it's gonna come down and bite you later on at

427
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 10: some point, I mean, hopefully they get fixed.

428
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 2: Austin did a great job filling in for Tony and

429
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 2: for mo.

430
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 10: I still think you to need your own show maybe

431
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 10: from ten to noon and we join Tony there for

432
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 10: an hour or two afterwards or something.

433
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 2: Take care everybody today, go.

434
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 3: Right, making a lot of sense there, Kevin here you go, yeah, man,

435
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 3: Thank you, Tony, Johnny from healthy here.

436
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 11: Sorry, I haven't been calling in much more.

437
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 3: I just you know, when I get up at.

438
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 11: Five point thirty in the morning, I should just record

439
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 11: a song about my wife cheating on me, like multi

440
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:31,120
Speaker 11: personality might. Let's get that done with. Look, future bets

441
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 11: are a big discussion right now. You know World Series

442
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 11: odds for the Reds Bengals, Nancy Nor thoughts, but I

443
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:38,920
Speaker 11: really want to know what are the current odds for

444
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 11: the Memorial Day Basketball Tournament's bowling eighty easy plus or minus.

445
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 2: We're we looking after that. He's about plus nine hundred

446
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 2: at this point. Well, he would probably have the longest odds.

447
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 3: If he lands Billups. I think that would flip to

448
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 3: minus two fifty. Chauncey no, Jalen. I thought Chauncey's busy.

449
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 11: Also, like I know how you guys operate, Tony. You

450
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 11: know you're in your little room often you're in your

451
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 11: little room and you're not really next to each other,

452
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 11: but like, I'm sure you still piss each other off

453
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 11: or you know, either not sticking to time the script

454
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 11: or just saying something that irks the other. So, like,

455
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 11: how do you cope with that, like annoyance of each other.

456
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 11: Do you have like a stress ball that you like squeeze?

457
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,479
Speaker 11: Do you have pictures of each other you throw darts at?

458
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:22,919
Speaker 11: Like what do you do when you're really mad at

459
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 11: the other but you're obviously not the same room and you're.

460
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 2: Live on the air. Yeah, normally Austin would just get

461
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 2: in my air and say, hey, we got to get

462
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 2: to a break now. Yeah, I don't know that I've

463
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 2: ever been like outside of that. I think we keep

464
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 2: to the clock pretty well. Yeah I don't, But I'm

465
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 2: saying I don't think we've ever been like really mad

466
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 2: at each other on the air, just slam anything. Then

467
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 2: we definitely have irked each other in the past.

468
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 3: I think we do a good job of just giving

469
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 3: each other space and then the other one will cool

470
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 3: off or whatever it is.

471
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, that happens, but I don't think it's it's professional.

472
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think on the air, we've ever really

473
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 3: been mad at each other, Like there are times.

474
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 2: So there's been times where I've taken a call or two.

475
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,920
Speaker 2: Actually I'll be like, dude, we've got to go and

476
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,400
Speaker 2: the call. That's the only time that, like a two

477
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 2: minutes later, I'm still on. I'm running hot. Is when

478
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 2: you will take a call when we have to get

479
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:15,479
Speaker 2: to a break, but you're when you will just let

480
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 2: a caller take over the show. That drives me nuts.

481
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 2: But I don't say anything.

482
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 12: Believe in the talkbacks. I can hear my voice on

483
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 12: the radio, start bench cut. What did the Reds usually

484
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 12: score during the game?

485
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 2: Zero one or two?

486
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 3: Just let just hear his voice on the radio.

487
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 4: From the groove.

488
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,360
Speaker 8: I'm not pressing the panic button on the season six

489
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 8: games in. But I will say though that I am

490
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 8: very concerned about Amelia Pegan at this point. I don't

491
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 8: see how you continue to throw him out in the

492
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 8: ninth inning steer if you don't need to figure it

493
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 8: out quick, because I'm starting the question for Lake just

494
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 8: like I did last year. And it's kind of weird

495
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 8: that for a football season, the Bengals struggle against Cleveland,

496
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 8: the worst team in the division, and the Red struggle

497
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 8: against Pittsburgh, the worst team at the division.

498
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't think about this, but the Pirates a

499
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 3: bad matchup.

500
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 2: Oh gosh, you know Red's early early returns second last

501
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 2: in baseball in total run score.

502
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 3: I have some runner runners in scoring positions stats we

503
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 3: can get to.

504
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 6: Oh, wouldn't it be nice if we could trade back?

505
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:36,160
Speaker 6: We could get us some extra pit and then turn

506
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 6: around and be like the Rams who won the Super

507
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 6: Bowl by saying FM picks.

508
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 2: Nope, we just.

509
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 6: Tradeing for some bed or players. Yeah, the Bengals brass

510
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 6: has never been draft slayers. Wouldn't it be nice?

511
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 2: Nope, no effort, Nope, nope, I'm trading up this year. Yep.

512
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,680
Speaker 3: Oh boy, yep. I haven't heard your reasoning yet on this.

513
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 3: I look forward to that.

514
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 13: So Hobbs has Mike North and we're back on track

515
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 13: for possibly playing for London and Madrid in the fall.

516
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 13: If the Madrid mayor says the Bengals are coming in Madrid,

517
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 13: don't believe him, but at some point in time, the

518
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 13: Bengals would have to.

519
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 2: Have advanced notice of that, and we would hear about it, right,

520
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 2: I would think so.

521
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,360
Speaker 3: Uh, I'm sure if it's happening, the Bengals know by now,

522
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 3: because we're a month and a half away from the schedule.

523
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 3: So I'm sure if it is happening, the Bengals know

524
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 3: by now.

525
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

526
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:38,639
Speaker 14: Hello, this is former President Ronald Reagan. And well, this

527
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 14: morning I was conversating with Nancy and she told me

528
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 14: that we were going back to the Moon, that Tops

529
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 14: is going back to the NFL, and that CB Buckner

530
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 14: is now going by his new nickname of blind Spot.

531
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 2: Oh that's the old blind Spot. Ouch.

532
00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 3: Dude, CB got cracked yesterday. That yep, like one oh four.

533
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:03,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

534
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 3: I felt bad for him. I really did. Like he's

535
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 3: been taking a lot of heat and then he took

536
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 3: some heat.

537
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:13,160
Speaker 6: Yeahkakua bites like a junkyard dog.

538
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:24,400
Speaker 3: Next up for rehab, Dan Hurley, Oh, physically assaulting someone? Yeah,

539
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 3: a little bit different.

540
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 2: On the Playboy Channel, Artemis four Astronauts on a journey

541
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 2: of stop stop stop.

542
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 3: Tone, Audie, what's going on?

543
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:40,120
Speaker 6: Boy?

544
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 5: It's may so glad to see the band back together. Hey,

545
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 5: I heard you guys talking about if you would go

546
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 5: up in space or not earlier.

547
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 2: Tone.

548
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 5: I know you're a definite no. Addie said he'd do it,

549
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,920
Speaker 5: so I had another question for you guys. Would you

550
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:57,919
Speaker 5: rather do a hot air balloon?

551
00:27:58,400 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 4: Oh?

552
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 5: Me, I hate heights both ways, but I think a

553
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 5: hot air balloon would be pretty damn cool.

554
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 3: Oh absolutely not.

555
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 2: If I was in a hot air balloon, I would

556
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 2: have to sit the whole time. I would have a

557
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 2: panic attack. I can't walk across like a tall bridge

558
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 2: without losing it.

559
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,880
Speaker 3: I can promise you, for as long as I live,

560
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,880
Speaker 3: I will never ever do either one of those things,

561
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 3: because they are both very stupid.

562
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 2: I'll say this as I get older.

563
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 3: If you made me choose, I would If you made

564
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 3: me choose, I would skydive. I have more faith in

565
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 3: my ability to pull a parachute than I do some

566
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 3: hot air balloon.

567
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 4: Good afternoon, gentlemen.

568
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 15: Is it just me or did we see like we

569
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 15: had bats early in spring training and then as the

570
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 15: coaching improved, the bats went away.

571
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 10: I don't know.

572
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 2: Do we need a coaching the coaches were the same.

573
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 2: Oh boy?

574
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 3: How did the coaching improve?

575
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 2: Oh boy?

576
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 3: I'll say this, early in spring training you're facing dudes

577
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 3: that are pitching in Dayton right now. Also true, you're

578
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 3: also in Arizona and the breaking balls don't move as much.

579
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 3: And also once you get to the big leagues, there's

580
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 3: advanced scouting departments that you know, come up with ways

581
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 3: to attack you more than you see in spring training.

582
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 3: So yeah, the Reds have a lot to improve on

583
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 3: for sure, But just a reminder as spring training.

584
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 16: Hey, Phyllis Friday Eve, it's DJ frump One speak of Friday, Audie.

585
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 11: You ever seen the movie Friday?

586
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 2: We'd love to know what you think?

587
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 17: And you thought it was firstly my favorite movie ever.

588
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 15: Okay, TP, I thought that we were on the Hornets

589
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 15: fanwaggon together.

590
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 11: You got to get back in the hive man playoff

591
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 11: push dribble, dribble, dribble, cock nipple for triple. Have a

592
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 11: great day, good vibe zone.

593
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 2: Listen.

594
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 3: I correctly, Tony's not allowed back in Charlotte.

595
00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 2: I'm in on the hive. I just don't think that

596
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 2: teams are actively either tanking or trying not to win

597
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 2: games in order to not play Charlotte in the first

598
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 2: round of the playoffs. Tony stole some money from the Panthers,

599
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 2: so's they stole from me. Not a lot of time,

600
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 2: but a lot to say.

601
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 18: Marte should have never made the team out of camp

602
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 18: if they wanted him to figure out how to hit

603
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 18: left handed pitching.

604
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 5: You don't do that in the majors.

605
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 2: And then they're not.

606
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 18: Even pinch hitting him against lefties. So it really makes

607
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 18: no sense of why he's up here. I move him down.

608
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 18: I put Resigns up here for immediate offensive impact, crossing

609
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 18: our fingers. But that's a move I'm making. Then I'm

610
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 18: getting Chafing up here immediately.

611
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 6: How quick can we get him up here?

612
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 3: It's been pretty good so far in his early appearances.

613
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 3: You do have two lefties up right now. I don't

614
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 3: know if you want that many lefties in the bullpen,

615
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 3: but it's possible. Also, I'm not saying this is true.

616
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 3: I'm not saying the Reds are thinking about this. But

617
00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 3: Noelvie Marty Bobblehead Day next Saturday. Boy, maybe we get

618
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 3: through that and then we Yeah, do you remember the

619
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 3: bobblehead last year? That was a tough one. He comes

620
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 3: in and hits a walk off homer and then they

621
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 3: do a fan vote on the bibblehead and he wins.

Speaker 2: Five ops plus. Yeah, he's doing well. Time to bring

664
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 2: rock mos it the Final four? Yeah? When when I

665
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,880

666
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 2: didn't know that was happening. A couple things real fast.

667
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 16: If the ideal situation for key Brian Hayes is to

668
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 16: come in in the sixth seven day thinking that he

669
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 16: doesn't need to be on the team, Emilio Peagan is

670
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 16: a high risk than he is reward type guy. Maybe

671
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 16: package those two together, go out and try to find

672
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 16: a legitimate closer that Tito can feel confident and throwing

673
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 16: out there. Lastly, resigns. If the guy's just gonna sit

674
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 16: there in triple A and not do anything, then go

675
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 16: ahead and trade him, get another arm. Maybe something has

676
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,280
Speaker 16: to be done in late and he's he's.

677
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 2: Ready to start trading effect six games in. Didn't have

678

Speaker 23: Updated odds for you on the Memorial Day three on three.

680
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 23: The favorite once again is Devin and Company. Damn a

681
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 23: shocking second place team.

682
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:45,880
Speaker 24: Currently is the team of the Bemis Twins with Chris Powers.

683
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:51,240
Speaker 24: That would put tone look as the third will not repeat,

684
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,239

Speaker 22: And drink every time they say Paul Skins, let's I

690
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:13,880
Speaker 22: don't know.

691
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,000

Speaker 3: together again together again?

693
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 15: Hand up. I am a beaten down, jaded cynical Cincinnati

694
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 15: Reds fan thirty years of losing will do that to

695
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 15: a guy.

696
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 2: I'm not very likable.

697
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 15: Hey, I have a question, who on this Reds team

698
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 15: in the lineup would strike fear and opposing pictures. I

699
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:45,439
Speaker 15: can think of two guys.

700
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 2: Right now, South Stewart because of how he's locked in,

701
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 2: he's playing well. Other than that, I don't know.

702
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,000
Speaker 3: I think there are still some pictures that are gonna

703
00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 3: challenge South Stuart and like prove that he can beat

704
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 3: them before they're afraid of them. So I'm still gonna

705
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 3: say Ellie and swore As just because of their power.

706
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,360
Speaker 3: But I feel like those guys have there's more of

707
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,919
Speaker 3: a book on how to beat them, so maybe there's

708
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,840
Speaker 3: not as much fear. That's a good question. I have

709
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 3: to leave a talk back because you guys never take

710
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 3: my call. One time, my dad and I were in

711
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 3: a hot air balloon and there was no wind whatsoever.

712
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 3: The pilot took us up three thousand feet and I

713
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 3: thought I was going to pass out because you could look,

714
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 3: you could see light through the bottom of the basket.

715
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 3: I was literally had tunnel vision. I was so panicked.

716
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm out.

717
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,040
Speaker 3: I could never ever do it.

718
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 2: I'm out.

719
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 10: Never well, Austin dipping back in here, and I guess

720
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,560
Speaker 10: you're trying to tell us that we've got a.

721
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 12: Double A game here playing major League fall, got it.

722
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:03,359
Speaker 1: Thanks, budd?

00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 3: Huh when did I say that?

724
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 4: Huh?

725
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 2: I never said that.

726
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 3: What I'm trying to sneak this one in see no,

727
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 3: yeah from n k Y. All right, Audie Tony, if

728
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,760
Speaker 3: you're going into a hot air balloon, then you should

729
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 3: be wearing a parachute with it, all right? Is that

730
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:29,279
Speaker 3: a thing? Come on, man? Do people in hot air

731
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 3: balloons wear parachutes?

732
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't care if it's a thing or not.

733
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not trusting that.

734
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:41,319
Speaker 9: The mic segments gotta be the worst, but I tend

735
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,880
Speaker 9: to listen to it on the podcast a little more nowadays.

736
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 2: So I can just go ahead and fast forward through that.

737
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:51,200

00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 23: just remember, if at first you don't succeed, skydiving is

744
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:07,239

797
00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 2: to think of, like what I could say or a

798
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 2: bet that I could place if the Bengals took Jeremiah Love,

799
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 2: what I would do? Trying to think because that ain't

800
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 2: gonna happen. Careful, I know, careful. Just maybe a friendly

801
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 2: wager with James Rapine. Well, he is the one that

802
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,880
Speaker 2: threw it out there. He is the one that threw it.

803
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 3: Out I also keep wanting to call him Jeremiah Love.

804
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 3: Hewett works too, because I'm a cornball.

805
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,719

809
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 2: lead lead lee lead in the dinosaur chicken nuggets, which

810
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,640
Speaker 2: if you followed along this show for a long enough

811
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:28,800
Speaker 2: period of time, you know that is part of my diet,

812
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 2: Dino chicken nuggets. I didn't know it was dino nuggets.

813
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,440
Speaker 2: I knew it was nuggets. I've grown out of the

814
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 2: Dino nuggets since then. But dinosaur chicken nuggets sold at

815
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:43,239

820
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:05,840
Speaker 2: You know?

821
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 3: A big thing now any more? Speaking of chicken, Like

822
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 3: do you put those nuggets when you make them? Do

823
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 3: you put them in the air fryer?

824
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:13,719
Speaker 11: Uh?

825
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,960
Speaker 2: Used to? You don't anymore. I don't really make nuggets

00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 2: minutes ago, maybe four?

828
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:28,919
Speaker 3: Well, there's like really healthy variations now of that sort

829
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,320
Speaker 3: of like they're breaded, they're like strips and nuggets, but

830
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:36,399
Speaker 3: they're healthy. Sure, the macros, as they say, are good.

831
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 3: And if you look at me, I mean clearly I'm

832
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:42,480
Speaker 3: the picture of health. The macros. I've been eating those.

833
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 3: Those pretty good. Eating them up, yeah, throw them in

834
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:47,840
Speaker 3: the air fryer. Okay, they get a little crispy.

835
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:48,600
