Dan Horde, you are 0:00:27.560 --> 0:00:28.280 a living legend. 0:00:28.320 --> 0:00:31.400 Good morning, sir, that's kind of you to say, Sloany, 0:00:31.440 --> 0:00:32.240 I'm doing well. 0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:33.280 Now you hear your voy. 0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:35.839 Good good, good, good good. This is arguably one of 0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:38.800 the biggest sports weekend in Cincinnati history. If you think 0:00:38.840 --> 0:00:41.840 about it, maybe that's a little overblown. But you've got 0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:44.120 this Bengals game. We'll get to that in a second. 0:00:44.159 --> 0:00:46.760 Why that's so big tonight?

You've got 0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:58.120 BYU and UC and the Bengals on Sunday. What am 0:00:58.120 --> 0:00:58.560 I missing? 0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:04.800 You are missing a UC versus nji T on Monday. 0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:07.959 It continues right into Monday with the New Jersey Institute 0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:09.479 of Technology rolling into town. 0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:13.199 It's good. What is their team? What's the mascot there? 0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:18.560 They are the Highlanders, the Highlanders based in Newark, New Jersey, 0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:21.840 and it's a prestigious academic institution. 0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:25.480 Hey, I'm sure it is. Okay, So the what do 0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:26.880 you say? The minute many artichokes? 0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:27.200 What is it? 0:01:28.760 --> 0:01:28.960 Lander? 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:32.200 Highlanders? Highland? J I T Highlander? Let me write that 0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:34.160 down here. Well, if we have time, we'll break that 0:01:34.319 --> 0:01:36.240 matchup down. I don't know if we'll be able to 0:01:36.240 --> 0:01:37.759 get We may have to hold you on for another 0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:40.960 segment Dan to cover that, but I'm prepared. Let's let's 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:44.080 jump in with the news here. First, Burrow or no Burrow. 0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:46.679 I don't know if you heard this morning and yesterday 0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:48.680 we played it was that good. Tom Brenneman sat down 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:52.240 with coach Zach Taylor, and Zach in his two or 0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:54.680 three minutes he was on. Tom pressed him like it 0:01:54.800 --> 0:01:57.400 was sixty minutes for an answer on whether or not 0:01:57.520 --> 0:02:02.480 the yeah, he went full say, Zach was sweating smoking cigarettes. 0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:06.240 It was unbelievable. But as I've replayed it, I'm listening 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:08.760 to this and you know, coaching going to give it away. Normally, 0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:10.720 if a players not playing and you kept pushing it, 0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:12.600 they kind of like cut you off. You know, you've 0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:14.919 been at many press conferences and probably have done that 0:02:15.000 --> 0:02:17.720 many times yourself. I know what that's like. But yet 0:02:18.240 --> 0:02:20.679 the coach was very very jovial about it, like in 0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:22.720 a really really good mood. Despite what's going on with 0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:25.160 the seam, no Jamar Chase, no Trey Hendrickson. You've got 0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:27.320 New England coming to town. You know, let's face it, 0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:31.119 hot seats are hab. He seemed awfully happy, and maybe 0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:33.120 I'm reading too much into it, but it feels to 0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:35.120 me like he's a go on Sunday. 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:38.639 I don't think we're there yet, but I think it's 0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:42.799 the real possibility. Joe practice with the you know, eleven 0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:46.600 on eleven drills on Wednesday, did it again yesterday, and 0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:49.840 we'll do it again today. They practiced this morning. I 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:53.519 think after three days of practice, he'll be evaluated and 0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:56.359 they will be closer to making a decision. There's also 0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:59.600 a Joe Flacco factor here. Keep in mind, he heard 0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:03.320 his show against the Jets. He's been practicing just once 0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:05.959 a week, so there's a little bit of a combo 0:03:06.080 --> 0:03:09.840 going on where the sub is now hurt and the 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:13.679 injured guy is now getting healthy. But I think it 0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:16.280 is a real possibility that Brow returns this week, which 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:19.600 would be amazing, basically a month ahead of schedule. 0:03:19.680 --> 0:03:21.800 It's incredible. I mean, it's really really something to him 0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:24.240 and the training staff, the medical staff and anyone else. 0:03:25.200 --> 0:03:27.840 And you probably won't see him under center because you 0:03:27.880 --> 0:03:29.720 know he's got a backpedal with that bad foot. You 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:30.280 don't want to do that. 0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:33.560 I don't know about that, to tell you the truth. 0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:37.000 I mean, if Joe comes back, he's only coming back 0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:40.480 if the foot specialist and the doctors say you're good 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:42.600 to go. Now. He will play with some sort of 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:45.920 protective you know, plate or something in his shoe to 0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:47.960 give it a little bit of extra protection. But I 0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:50.040 don't think they're going to let him come back if 0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:54.160 he is significantly compromised. Now, Joe doesn't love being under 0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:56.720 center anyway. He takes most of his snaps out of 0:03:56.760 --> 0:04:01.560 the shotgun. So under healthy circumstances, a hundred percent healthy circumstances, 0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:03.160 he's not under center a lot. 0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:03.600 Anyway. 0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:06.560 But if he comes back, I think he's coming back 0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:08.360 with a green light to do anything that they would 0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:09.080 normally have him to do. 0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:11.480 Yeah, and also to feed into that too. I mean 0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:14.400 if this were his plant foot, different story, I think, 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:16.919 and hey, can you get away and not being one 0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:19.440 hundred percent on that one, And that's something the medical 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:21.400 staff hasked away. I was talking to Tony Pike about 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:23.440 this yesterday. And you know, a player also has to 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:25.640 be honest about the pain level they're feeling, too, and 0:04:25.960 --> 0:04:28.520 players want to play, and so again it's it may 0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:31.200 be a perfect science still in perfect in that capacity 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:33.600 that someone wants to do something like that, I'll be good. 0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:36.200 I'm okay, And athletes are famous for that. So and 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:38.600 in the fear obviously is risking the off season. So 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:39.960 we don't want to see that happen. 0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:41.840 No, we don't. 0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:45.400 And I'm sure they are counting on Joe to be 0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:49.280 honest because he knows his value to the franchise. He's 0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:51.960 the most important guy in the building. So if he's 0:04:52.000 --> 0:04:55.360 feeling anything significant other than you know, the tiniest bit 0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:58.040 of residual pain, he's got to tell the docs and 0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:00.000 the foot specialists and protect himself. 0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:02.720 That is the most incredible story I think of the 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:04.960 season is that Joe Burrow went down with turftow and 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:06.800 he's back in record time. 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:08.280 Now. 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:10.200 The other thing, too, is you start looking. We've talked 0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:12.200 about this, Dan threading the needle right there, three and 0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:14.800 seven right now. You felt last week was a must 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:17.240 win game at Pittsburgh that didn't work out. Obviously, you 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:19.920 got nine to two New England coming in. No Trey Hendrickson, 0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:23.680 no Jamar. There's a lot on the line in this 0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:26.520 particular game, and there's not much will the room left 0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:27.840 if you lose this one. 0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:31.680 You know, I'm not even thinking about that anymore, and 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:34.920 I don't think many people realistically are sure. If you 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:38.720 run the table, then that possibility comes back into play. 0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:41.880 But we said last week's game was must win in 0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:44.080 terms of still having chance and in a division they 0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:47.640 didn't win. So now you look at different things to 0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:50.800 try to accomplish over the final seven games of the season, 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:53.159 and number one on the list is trying to figure 0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:55.640 out which guys on defense can be part of the 0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:58.840 solution to a defense that has obviously really struggled for 0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:01.040 the last couple of years with all these young guys 0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:04.240 that they've drafted since twenty twenty two, Which guys do 0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:05.880 you think have a chance to be part of a 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:09.040 competent defense, Which guys don't, because at the end of 0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:11.880 this year, there are definitely going to be major changes 0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:12.800 on that side of the ball. 0:06:13.200 --> 0:06:15.440 Yeah, And I don't think it over shadow. I mean, 0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:17.480 the two franchises right now this year are heading in 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:20.440 opposite directions. And I think the narrative for the AFC 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:23.120 Patriots nine and two with a twenty three year old 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:27.200 potential MVP quarterback and a top five defense, to me, 0:06:27.320 --> 0:06:29.400 that's like the big story of the AFC. The Patriots 0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:31.560 came out of maybe not out of nowhere, but I 0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:33.200 don't think anyone saw this level of success. 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:37.000 They won four games last year, and they won four 0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:40.440 games the year before, so yeah, I think maybe people 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:44.000 expected a significant improvement, but nobody expected nine and two. 0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:47.200 They have feasted on a pretty weak schedule to this 0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:49.960 point and it's pretty weak going forward. So it's been 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:52.800 a good year in that respect for the Patriots. They're 0:06:52.839 --> 0:06:54.520 having one of those years. The Bengals had this a 0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:57.440 few years ago where it seems like whenever they play, 0:06:58.000 --> 0:07:00.600 one of the other team's best guys is out and 0:07:00.720 --> 0:07:03.200 it's happening again this week, Jamar Chase, no doubt so 0:07:03.360 --> 0:07:05.840 the timing it just has been good. I do think, though, 0:07:05.880 --> 0:07:09.680 there's something encouraging in the Patriots story, and that is 0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:13.560 the fact that last year these two teams almost gave 0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:16.680 up the same amount of points. The Bengals gave up 0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:21.080 seventeen more in seventeen games than the Patriots did in 0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:24.160 one year. The Patriots have fixed their defense. They're getting 0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:27.000 up less than twenty points a game. They signed several 0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:30.480 free agents that have helped them flip it. The Bengals 0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:32.120 are going to have to use free agency in the 0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:34.680 draft to try to flip it. But the Patriots have 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:36.080 proven this year it can be done. 0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:40.600 Yeah, and I you know, we've seen this before too. 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:44.680 Sample size here with Drake may he has what twenty 0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:48.000 eight hundred passing yards and I'm leaving the NFL twenty tds. 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:51.560 He's putting huge numbers up right now. He appears to 0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:54.920 be the next franchise quarterback there New England. Are we 0:07:55.000 --> 0:07:57.600 overreacting though in the short number of games they played. 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:01.760 No, I think he is that guy for the Patriots. 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:03.840 You know, Joe Burrow took the Bengals to the Super 0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:06.120 Bowl in his second year, and I think in many 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:09.360 instances with quarterbacks, if they have this type of year 0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:12.680 in year two, you know pretty confidently that you've got 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:15.400 your guy. He was a third pick in the draft. 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:15.800 For a reason. 0:08:16.040 --> 0:08:18.560 You know this is turning out to be last year's 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:22.920 draft pretty extraordinary for quarterbacks, with Jayden Daniels going to, 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:26.760 Drake May going three, and Caleb Williams going one. All 0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:30.320 of those guys have had pretty impressive moments in their 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:33.400 first year and a half. The Patriots are nine and two, 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.880 the Bears are seven and three. Daniels took Washington to 0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:40.240 the NFC Championship Game last year, so I'm not sure 0:08:40.280 --> 0:08:42.240 which of the three is ultimately going to turn out 0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:44.079 to be the best, but I think all three of 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:46.040 those teams feel pretty good about the guy they took. 0:08:46.400 --> 0:08:48.800 And then throw bow knicks in there as well. Four 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.640 quarterbacks from last year's draft doing really well, incredible. 0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:54.120 They do have a lot of Drake May face a 0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:56.400 lot of pressure though I think second most of the 0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:58.520 NFL and sacks something along those lines. 0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:00.800 This week. 0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:03.920 Can the Bengals generate pressure on May without him there? 0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:05.839 And Shamar Stewart, while not that he was doing anything. 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:07.920 But those two are not going to play this weekend. 0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:11.480 Can they get anything in the pass rush game going? Well, 0:09:11.559 --> 0:09:13.439 they can't get as much as they would have if 0:09:13.440 --> 0:09:15.000 they had Trey, that's for sure. 0:09:15.200 --> 0:09:18.240 We really haven't seen Chamar yet since Opening Day have 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:20.840 a big impact on a game. One of the reasons 0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:24.040 why may a second in the NFL at being sacked 0:09:24.200 --> 0:09:26.160 is that he will hold the ball, try to make 0:09:26.240 --> 0:09:28.480 big plays. He uses his legs a lot, He's a 0:09:28.520 --> 0:09:32.120 good runner, so I would anticipate the Bengals will probably 0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:34.280 get to him a couple of times because of that. 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:37.839 But you know, can they harass him the way that 0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:39.959 Houston harassed Josh Allen last night? 0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:40.280 Yeah? 0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:41.719 And unfortunately probably not. 0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:46.360 Yeah, that was a whole different set of circumstances there, 0:09:47.080 --> 0:09:50.280 Dan Horde. As far as the Patriots defense goes, best 0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:52.640 run defense in football, It's gonna be a tough day 0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:55.360 for Chase Browning company right now, especially considering, you know, 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:57.440 Joe's gonna have one less tool. We talked about Jamar 0:09:57.559 --> 0:10:01.240 Chase being out this week for spitting on Jalen Ramsey 0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:04.760 in sunday thirty four to twelve loss. So Tea will 0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:08.120 Tea obviously but Gasecki's back, though he returned to practice 0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:10.480 miss last four games. I had that Peck injuries on 0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:13.800 the IR so you got him. But who steps some 0:10:13.840 --> 0:10:16.240 of that other wide receiver roles at Yoshi vas Tinsley? 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:21.080 Yes, and yes, I think those two guys will start. 0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:24.760 Obviously Yosi Vash does anyway, So the guy that will 0:10:24.840 --> 0:10:29.280 take the bulk of the snaps that are available because 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:33.080 Jamar will not play, will likely be Mitch Tinsley, maybe 0:10:33.200 --> 0:10:36.439 Charlie Jones see some action. I do think that there's 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:39.160 a good chance that Kasseki will be activated, and I 0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:40.880 think you're going to see a lot of Chase Brown. 0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:43.960 Chase Brown has had one hundred or more combined rushing 0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:47.160 and receiving yards now for four straight games. The early 0:10:47.400 --> 0:10:50.840 season slump is over. He had ninety nine rushing yards 0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:54.319 last week against the good run stopping Pittsburgh defense, and 0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:57.600 the Patriots are excellent at that. But they lost their 0:10:57.640 --> 0:11:02.199 best defensive lineman this past Weeklton Williams went on injured reserves, 0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:04.439 so they're not going to have him, and the run 0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:08.600 defense has shown maybe a little bit of leakage over 0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:10.559 the past couple of weeks. Their last two opponents and 0:11:10.600 --> 0:11:13.080 both average more than five yards of carry. So maybe 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.640 the Bengals can get something going on the ground this week. 0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:17.640 I hope so, because you think Joe's probably gonna have 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:19.319 to maybe hand the ball a little bit more, just 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:21.319 take the pressure off. You know what was interesting? 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:21.880 Joe? 0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:23.480 Which Joe? 0:11:24.520 --> 0:11:25.920 Do you have to clarify our Joe? 0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:29.800 Yeah, that's true. We got so many Joe's. I'd imagine 0:11:29.880 --> 0:11:31.920 Christian Gonzalez is going to line up across T Higgins 0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:33.520 as the number one. That's going to be a real 0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:37.719 good test for T Higgins. The Patriots haven't done that 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:40.920 this year. They did that last year. He's their best corner. 0:11:41.040 --> 0:11:43.800 Last year they had him a shadow the other team's 0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:47.080 best guy. They've mixed that up this year where sometimes 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:51.200 they have Gonzales defend the number two guy in order 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:54.400 to double team the number one guy, which some teams do. 0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:57.760 So they'll probably mix it up this week because Jamar 0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:01.760 is out, I suppose it becomes more likely Di Gonzales 0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:04.640 will follow T Higgins around, but I wouldn't expect that to. 0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:05.760 Be the case in every snap. 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:08.839 Yeah, how do you explain the resurgence of Steph Diggs? 0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:13.960 Well, he was hurt last year. You know, he's when 0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:16.959 he's played, he's always played well. He's been a pain 0:12:17.080 --> 0:12:20.840 in the neck for some of his previous organizations. He obviously, 0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:24.160 you know, wore out his welcome in Buffalo, but before 0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:27.440 that happened, he was phenomenal. So he's healthy. He's back 0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:29.880 from a torn acl I think that happened in week 0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:32.080 four last year, so it was early enough for him 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:34.760 to rehab and to be ready for the start of 0:12:34.800 --> 0:12:35.240 the season. 0:12:35.360 --> 0:12:37.120 So he's a great player. 0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:40.280 And you know when he's not grumpy because of the 0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:42.880 amount of throws coming his way, he always performs. 0:12:43.200 --> 0:12:45.280 Seems like he's moved past I mean, he's thirty one 0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:48.000 at this point. He's not Walsh. But you know it 0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:49.640 took him a long time to learn that lesson is 0:12:49.679 --> 0:12:51.599 not to be that guy in the locker room. It 0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:54.120 doesn't appears that all that way, and just happy with 0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:55.600 what he's he gets in New England. 0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:59.280 Well, he's been great so far. But I think that's 0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:02.959 always been the case early wherever he's been. Maybe that 0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:05.800 will continue to be the case long term in New England. 0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:08.680 You know, last year is one year with Houston. Again, 0:13:08.720 --> 0:13:11.600 it didn't last very long. He towards acl in October, 0:13:11.760 --> 0:13:14.480 but he was named to captain. They said everything great 0:13:14.480 --> 0:13:17.200 about him. So I do think that when he gets 0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:20.079 a you know, a fresh start somewhere, there's always a 0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:23.080 great honeymoon period and the Patriots are enjoying it right now. 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:27.040 All right, Danny, give us a timeline here indicators that 0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:30.200 Joe Burrow will or won't play, starting with today, because 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:32.480 what Today's the day you got to make some moves. 0:13:32.520 --> 0:13:33.880 You've got to make an active house's work. 0:13:35.679 --> 0:13:39.160 So he'll practice today and they'll continue to evaluate how 0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:42.040 his toe feels. They'll also be keeping an eye on 0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:46.319 Flacco to see how his shoulder feels. If Joe Burrow 0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:48.959 is going to play on Sunday, they would have to 0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:51.120 activate him right now. He's still in the twenty one 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:54.199 day window where he can practice without counting against the 0:13:54.240 --> 0:13:57.079 fifty three man roster, so that could be done as 0:13:57.200 --> 0:13:59.760 late as tomorrow. They don't have to do it today, 0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:05.520 So we probably won't know for sure today, but if 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:09.439 he practices and everything goes smoothly, it probably continues to 0:14:09.520 --> 0:14:13.079 move in the direction at least of possible weturn to 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:16.400 the lineup this week, and that would require the Bengals 0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:18.920 activating him sometime before the game on Sunday. 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:20.960 And then you'd have to also release him, So it 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:21.840 would it be Jake Brownie. 0:14:25.080 --> 0:14:28.520 Well, Sean Clifford is on the fifty three man roster 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:32.040 right now, So Sean Clifford, I would think, would be 0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:34.560 removed from the fifty three man roster. The Bengals would 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:36.840 probably try to put him back on the practice squad 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:39.200 and that would open up a spot for Joe Gotcha. 0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:42.200 Gotcha, because you know, obviously if Joe is ready to go, 0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:45.400 and God forbid, something happens. Joe Flacco doesn't seem like 0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:47.040 he's going to be able to throw the ball. You 0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:51.160 need somebody who is well, has an arm. So that 0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:52.480 kind of leads Jake Brownie, doesn't it. 0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:56.280 Well, Joe Flacco hasn't missed any time because of his 0:14:56.400 --> 0:15:00.400 shoulder injury, and it happened in the Jets game week. 0:15:00.680 --> 0:15:03.000 I'm sure he probably took a shot to the shoulder 0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:05.080 before the game. He went out and threw for four 0:15:05.160 --> 0:15:08.000 hundred and seventy yards. Then he had a bye week, 0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:11.600 then he played last week. Didn't play great against the Steelers. 0:15:11.640 --> 0:15:12.680 I didn't think he threw. 0:15:12.600 --> 0:15:14.160 The ball as well. 0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:16.560 As he had. But you know, who knows if that's 0:15:16.600 --> 0:15:18.960 the shoulder. If it was the windy conditions in Pittsburgh, 0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:21.760 could have been a bad day. He says, he's feeling 0:15:21.800 --> 0:15:24.280 a little bit better as the weeks go along. So 0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:28.680 I think Joe's probably okay to play. I have not 0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:31.120 watched him practice this week. You know, we only get 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:34.560 to see so much once the season begins, So I 0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:37.520 would expect that if Burrow gets the green light and 0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:40.720 comes back this week, the pecking order would be Joe B, 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:43.480 Joe F, and then Jake got it. 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:46.880 So you see, basketball got louis number six, Louisville in town. 0:15:47.080 --> 0:15:49.800 And of course the other game here is BYU. U 0:15:49.880 --> 0:15:52.360 see under the lights at Nippert with the national TV 0:15:52.440 --> 0:15:55.000 audience coming to town at noon on Fox, and of 0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:59.760 course overshadowed by your broadcast you and Pike tomorrow at 0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:04.200 at Nippert Stadium. I was just so unsure you were 0:16:04.200 --> 0:16:06.560 too in Arizona. Was disappointed with that Arizona loss. 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:06.800 Man. 0:16:07.520 --> 0:16:09.240 You want to have that momentum going into BYU and 0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:11.520 all of a sudden you're looking at possibles in three straight. 0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:16.600 Yeah, very disappointed in that game because I think the 0:16:16.680 --> 0:16:19.240 two teams are comparable, and when that's the case, you 0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:21.240 got to win the home games, yep, against teams that 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:22.960 are about the same as you are. And then they 0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:26.360 didn't get that done last week, and it is disappointing 0:16:26.440 --> 0:16:29.120 because had they won that game, there would be a 0:16:29.200 --> 0:16:32.280 ton at stake tomorrow night. The interest level would be 0:16:32.440 --> 0:16:36.360 huge nationally because had Cincinnati won last week, and if 0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:39.560 the Bearcats should win again tomorrow, they would have been 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:41.480 right in the hunt for playing in the Big twelve 0:16:41.560 --> 0:16:44.880 championship game. They controlled their destiny as of last week. 0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:47.200 Now they don't. They still got a shot to make 0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:49.880 it if they win tomorrow, but they need other teams 0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:52.720 to lose. You never like it when that's the case. 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:57.080 It's Senior Night tomorrow. It's a great senior class. And 0:16:57.280 --> 0:16:59.880 last year they ended the season on a sour no 0:17:00.200 --> 0:17:01.920 they were five and two and didn't win a game. 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:03.880 They lost the last five games. This year they were 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:05.760 seven and one. Now they've lost to in a row. 0:17:06.080 --> 0:17:10.200 They're trying to avoid another similar late season slide. So 0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:13.800 BYU is the favorite Tomorrow. BYU is excellent. They're number 0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:16.520 eleven in the country. They've only lost once. It's a 0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:19.200 really good team. But I think Cincinnati is a really 0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:21.720 good team. The atmosphere is going to be great. Let's 0:17:21.720 --> 0:17:24.399 see if the Bearcats can you deliver in one of 0:17:24.440 --> 0:17:28.040 those memorable home wins over a you know, a highly 0:17:28.200 --> 0:17:30.240 ranked team that we've seen in the past. 0:17:30.320 --> 0:17:32.479 All right, then you got Louisville. Good night, and then 0:17:32.720 --> 0:17:35.719 quick turnaround of course the big game Monday against NTI, 0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:36.919 JEN and NBC. 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:43.280 What is it n j I T the New Jersey 0:17:43.520 --> 0:17:48.119 Institute of Technology, the all the modern of original astronaut 0:17:48.280 --> 0:17:49.080 Wally Sier. 0:17:49.960 --> 0:17:53.159 You're not big? How about that? All right? Thank New 0:17:53.240 --> 0:17:56.280 Jersey Instance Technology? Or are the the Petri Dishes?

I 0:18:17.800 --> 0:18:21.320 appreciate you. You bet have a good game, and we've 0:18:21.359 --> 0:18:23.960 got a news update happening right now as we slide 0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:26.399 in the weekend here, it's a Scott Sloan show with 0:18:26.520 --> 0:18:29.639 Will Gans from ABC. The new uh Wicked movie is 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:31.440 out right now. He's seen that? Is it worth it? 0:18:31.520 --> 0:18:33.359 We'll get into that and some streaming stuff as well. 0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:34.160 Seven hundred. 0:18:39.320 --> 0:18:42.760 Now a man who has entertainment reporting of coursing through. 0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:46.440 His beans, which makes him a medical opaity. 0:18:47.240 --> 0:18:50.000 He is ABC Will Gans from New York. 0:18:50.240 --> 0:18:53.119 Will Gans is here from ABC in New York. How 0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:53.640 are you doing, brother? 0:18:54.920 --> 0:18:56.080 I'm doing all right? How are you? 0:18:56.320 --> 0:18:59.560 Everything is lovely ready for a big weekend here before 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:02.240 we get in to obviously the big news here and 0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:04.360 that's a Wicked movie. A couple of things on streaming, 0:19:05.119 --> 0:19:06.800 and it kind of throw a curveball at as I 0:19:06.920 --> 0:19:11.520 usually do. We finally settled the YouTube TV carriage dispute 0:19:11.560 --> 0:19:15.280 between Disney and ESPN, and it just seems like is 0:19:15.320 --> 0:19:16.720 it me or are we just getting more of the 0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:19.080 stuff with streaming. It's like it's happening all the time now. 0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:23.200 No, I don't think it's just you, you know, And 0:19:23.320 --> 0:19:26.160 I think like, as these mergers continue to happen, we're 0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:31.760 probably gearing up for even more confusing consolidations or disputes 0:19:32.520 --> 0:19:37.080 or both. But yeah, no, it definitely does feel like 0:19:37.960 --> 0:19:40.720 you know, in this brave new frontier of streaming that 0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:43.560 like they haven't figured it out yet. And the next 0:19:43.600 --> 0:19:45.280 thing coming up, by the way, like and this has 0:19:45.320 --> 0:19:47.760 already happened everywhere except for the United States, is that 0:19:48.040 --> 0:19:51.560 Hulu is essentially going away and it's just going to 0:19:51.600 --> 0:19:55.680 be like a tab in your Disney Plus app as well. 0:19:55.880 --> 0:19:58.800 So like you know, if you if you are used 0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:01.200 to going to Hulu to watch any of your favorite stuff, 0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:04.520 like pretty soon that's going to be a big shift 0:20:04.560 --> 0:20:04.920 as well. 0:20:05.040 --> 0:20:06.280 So yeah, it is. 0:20:06.480 --> 0:20:09.399 It is not just you, it's it's it's definitely a 0:20:09.520 --> 0:20:10.560 more and more frequent card. 0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:12.919 And it seems like more so with sports too, because 0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:16.639 it just, you know, it gets it's it's difficult, it's 0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:20.000 more expensive, and the everything's going up when it comes 0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:22.480 to sports rights holders because there's so much money in 0:20:22.560 --> 0:20:25.600 sports right now, and obviously there's going to be dispute 0:20:25.640 --> 0:20:28.160 between in this case to carry YouTube TV which continues 0:20:28.200 --> 0:20:30.800 to grow and in this case Disney slash ESPN. 0:20:32.040 --> 0:20:34.960 Exactly, And you know, sports really is like I think 0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:40.600 I saw a headline fairly recently that like for Disney, 0:20:40.720 --> 0:20:45.560 like half half of the like you know, creative budget 0:20:45.720 --> 0:20:46.199 for for. 0:20:47.920 --> 0:20:49.439 You know, next year is it's like. 0:20:49.600 --> 0:20:52.639 Half sports, half scripted entertainment and stuff like that. 0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:54.520 So, you know, sports is really. 0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:55.240 One of the few. 0:20:56.880 --> 0:21:01.359 Instances where you have to be watching live to enjoy it, 0:21:01.480 --> 0:21:04.080 where like everything else pretty much you know, you can stream, 0:21:04.960 --> 0:21:08.040 you know, without having missed out on too much of anything. 0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:08.359 You know. 0:21:08.520 --> 0:21:11.440 Well, not to get too philosophical, but I think the 0:21:11.520 --> 0:21:14.080 future it's gonna be AI. Right, it's gonna be AI characters, 0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:17.040 AI voice, AI script writing. It's going to be top 0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:19.760 to bottom AI, no mat much Hollywood fights it. That's 0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:21.520 the way things are headed. It's going to be all 0:21:21.640 --> 0:21:25.080 generated you know, talent so to speak, and people, actors, 0:21:25.119 --> 0:21:27.680 et cetera. Uh, that leaves the only thing left is 0:21:27.760 --> 0:21:30.880 going to be maybe reality TV, but certainly live sports. 0:21:32.640 --> 0:21:37.200 Yeah exactly, I mean, and obviously you know, personally, of course, 0:21:37.240 --> 0:21:40.840 I hope you're wrong, and you know, I don't know, Yeah, 0:21:41.440 --> 0:21:44.240 you know, because like, yeah, no. 0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:46.040 One's going to go on striketh. There's not going to 0:21:46.080 --> 0:21:48.480 be people quitting shows. It's a it's like the Simpsons. 0:21:48.600 --> 0:21:52.359 You just get new people to draw it right right, Yeah, 0:21:52.560 --> 0:21:55.920 I mean it does get very philosophical because it's like, 0:21:56.520 --> 0:21:58.679 you know, then to what it's like, what is art? 0:21:58.800 --> 0:21:59.000 Really? 0:21:59.080 --> 0:22:01.600 It's like AI is writing the script for you know, 0:22:02.359 --> 0:22:04.399 the movie, you know, the movie that is supposed to 0:22:04.480 --> 0:22:07.560 move you. I don't know, I don't know, but yeah, sports, 0:22:07.680 --> 0:22:08.639 I guess, you know. 0:22:08.680 --> 0:22:10.920 Maybe I'll pivot careers and see. 0:22:11.119 --> 0:22:13.400 You know how I how I fare as a running back? 0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:13.800 I don't know. 0:22:14.240 --> 0:22:17.000 Yeah, yeah, well maybe I Don'll be virtual football teams. 0:22:17.000 --> 0:22:19.280 I suppose I your team was a super Bowl every year. 0:22:19.320 --> 0:22:22.200 Possibly this is not what you signed up for. Of 0:22:22.240 --> 0:22:24.280 course we're talking about. Well, I love talking to you 0:22:24.320 --> 0:22:26.600 because you know all this stuff. All right, So, a 0:22:26.600 --> 0:22:28.240 little movie you may have heard of. It's called Wicked, 0:22:28.560 --> 0:22:30.760 and I was impressed the other night. I didn't watch it, 0:22:30.840 --> 0:22:33.399 but the original was only a year old. I was 0:22:33.440 --> 0:22:36.880 on NBC already that usually, you know, again, talk about 0:22:36.920 --> 0:22:38.440 how things are changing. Back in the day, it would 0:22:38.440 --> 0:22:41.160 be years before a big movie like that would show, 0:22:41.160 --> 0:22:42.800 would be a big event. And now it's like, hey, 0:22:42.800 --> 0:22:45.639 a year later and okay, NBC broadcast you can show it. 0:22:45.800 --> 0:22:46.600 Why is that happening? 0:22:47.960 --> 0:22:48.120 Well? 0:22:48.200 --> 0:22:51.840 I think you know, because you have the big you know, 0:22:52.359 --> 0:22:53.320 media conglomerates. 0:22:53.400 --> 0:22:54.879 They know that if they show Wicked. 0:22:54.640 --> 0:22:56.960 Part one on NBC, it might remind everybody, oh yeah, 0:22:56.960 --> 0:22:58.880 Wicked Part two is coming out. Let's go spend twenty 0:22:58.920 --> 0:23:02.240 dollars a person. And so for them, it's like a giant. 0:23:02.000 --> 0:23:04.040 Commercial, you know what I mean, Yeah, that's exactly. 0:23:05.400 --> 0:23:05.640 Yeah. 0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:08.439 So you know, and and I think, you know, to. 0:23:08.520 --> 0:23:11.000 Some extent obviously paying off. I think Wicked Part two 0:23:11.000 --> 0:23:13.760 would have done fine regardless, but now it's looking at 0:23:13.760 --> 0:23:16.600 one hundred and fifty million dollars this weekend opening, which 0:23:16.600 --> 0:23:19.080 would be the biggest you know, theatrical release of the year. 0:23:20.200 --> 0:23:22.399 So you know, all their ideas. 0:23:22.440 --> 0:23:24.640 They also had like a live special where the cat 0:23:24.840 --> 0:23:25.480 was singing, and. 0:23:25.920 --> 0:23:28.600 You know, of course they've been doing these massive premieres 0:23:28.640 --> 0:23:31.040 in every major city you know, on the globe, so 0:23:32.320 --> 0:23:34.719 you know, all of that press has has paid off. 0:23:34.760 --> 0:23:36.920 It seems like yeah, yeah, now, now the you know, 0:23:37.320 --> 0:23:39.800 a year ago it came out, biggest, one of the 0:23:39.880 --> 0:23:43.000 great movies, and now it's like, okay, we'll just show 0:23:43.000 --> 0:23:44.920 it on broadcasts and after that, because you're right, it's 0:23:44.920 --> 0:23:47.240 a it's a basically a lost leader. If you wanted 0:23:47.280 --> 0:23:50.400 to see Wicked. You've seen it because it's available everywhere, streaming, 0:23:51.320 --> 0:23:53.879 you know, whatever, whatever platform, it's just available to go. 0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:56.160 So you know it's going to come to market faster, 0:23:56.200 --> 0:23:58.760 I guess, come to broadcast faster. So let's pivot a 0:23:58.800 --> 0:24:01.399 Wicked for Good in the theaters this weekend. What can 0:24:01.440 --> 0:24:01.840 you expect? 0:24:03.200 --> 0:24:04.760 Yeah, so this is for. 0:24:04.760 --> 0:24:07.320 Anyone who's seen the musical. This is Act two of 0:24:07.480 --> 0:24:10.760 the musical. It's a little bit darker and the music 0:24:10.960 --> 0:24:13.040 is not as familiar. You know. Part one you get 0:24:13.080 --> 0:24:15.399 to find gravity and popular and all of the biggest 0:24:15.520 --> 0:24:17.240 songs from the from the musical. 0:24:17.680 --> 0:24:21.359 So part two, you know, you might not recognize as 0:24:21.440 --> 0:24:22.160 much of the music. 0:24:23.040 --> 0:24:24.560 That's not to say it's not as good, it's just 0:24:24.680 --> 0:24:29.280 less recognizable. And you know, so I will also say 0:24:29.320 --> 0:24:31.800 that like the second act of the musical, just the 0:24:31.880 --> 0:24:36.120 source material is not as it's not paced as well. 0:24:36.200 --> 0:24:40.320 It's a little clunkier maybe, So you know, reviews are 0:24:40.400 --> 0:24:42.520 sort of saying, you know, I don't think it's as 0:24:42.560 --> 0:24:44.600 good as the first one. But that said, you know, 0:24:44.720 --> 0:24:46.960 for fans of the first one, it's you know, you'll 0:24:47.119 --> 0:24:49.120 you'll get all of the stuff you love. There's humor. 0:24:49.280 --> 0:24:52.160 There's a lot of heart and to continue the Wizard 0:24:52.160 --> 0:24:54.119 of Oz, you know, metaphor, there's a lot of brains 0:24:54.119 --> 0:24:57.240 I guess as well here. So it's excellent. It's Ariana 0:24:57.240 --> 0:25:00.399 Grande and Cynthia Rivo, you know, shining, you know, and 0:25:00.880 --> 0:25:02.680 you get to see how this whole thing ends. So 0:25:03.760 --> 0:25:06.200 you know, I think it's going to do huge numbers 0:25:06.240 --> 0:25:08.200 this weekend, and with good reason. 0:25:08.240 --> 0:25:09.760 It's it's a great movie. 0:25:10.240 --> 0:25:12.000 Okay, good, So it stands up. If you are a 0:25:12.119 --> 0:25:14.040 fan of the genre, then you're gonna lie. It's it's 0:25:14.160 --> 0:25:16.159 this is it right? There's no part three, it's one and. 0:25:16.200 --> 0:25:19.960 Two exactly, exactly, that's correct. 0:25:20.200 --> 0:25:23.359 Okay, there's something out if you're not going to go 0:25:23.400 --> 0:25:26.720 to the theaters this weekend. Streaming stuff. Claire Danes, you 0:25:26.800 --> 0:25:31.160 may remember, who arguably talk about a niche for someone 0:25:31.240 --> 0:25:35.160 like this. She plays the best crazy slash paranoid person 0:25:35.240 --> 0:25:38.840 I think I've ever seen, you know what I mean, 0:25:38.920 --> 0:25:40.920 And she played that character so well for years and 0:25:41.000 --> 0:25:41.919 now she's got something new. 0:25:43.359 --> 0:25:43.560 Yeah. 0:25:43.640 --> 0:25:46.760 So this is a psychological thriller. It's a limited series, 0:25:46.800 --> 0:25:49.520 so eight episodes on Netflix. She plays an author who 0:25:50.000 --> 0:25:52.360 lost her son a few years ago, and she sort 0:25:52.359 --> 0:25:54.440 of hasn't been able to write, hasn't really been able 0:25:54.480 --> 0:25:56.960 to leave her house too much, and she, you know, 0:25:57.080 --> 0:25:59.760 she's an uninspired author. And then this guy moves in 0:25:59.840 --> 0:26:02.080 down on the street. He's a millionaire whose ex wife 0:26:02.160 --> 0:26:03.080 went missing. 0:26:03.240 --> 0:26:04.080 A few years ago. 0:26:04.200 --> 0:26:06.080 So she is sort of thinking, Okay, this could be 0:26:06.520 --> 0:26:08.240 good material for my next book. 0:26:08.480 --> 0:26:09.920 But is he a murderer? 0:26:10.280 --> 0:26:12.800 She is? She losing her marbles a little bit, and 0:26:13.080 --> 0:26:14.840 and you know, they start off a little content and 0:26:14.960 --> 0:26:18.280 they sort of formed this weird, you know, friendship, and 0:26:18.920 --> 0:26:21.680 right from the jump it's pretty gripping. So and like 0:26:21.760 --> 0:26:24.399 you said, you know, she is such a force on screen, so. 0:26:24.480 --> 0:26:26.680 She's fabulous in it. The guy's played by Matthew Reeves. 0:26:26.760 --> 0:26:27.359 He's great too. 0:26:28.280 --> 0:26:30.439 So if you need like sort of a psychological thriller, 0:26:31.119 --> 0:26:32.840 this is the Beast in Me on Netflix and all 0:26:32.880 --> 0:26:33.600 the episodes are out. 0:26:34.119 --> 0:26:38.520 So she's unstable, like she wasn't Homeland all those years. Yes, awesome, 0:26:38.720 --> 0:26:42.040 that's a great type cancel one. But because she's been 0:26:42.080 --> 0:26:44.680 other things obviously, but man, you watch Homelands like she 0:26:44.880 --> 0:26:45.480 was so good. 0:26:45.359 --> 0:26:49.280 In that exactly, and you know, it's not an easy 0:26:49.359 --> 0:26:49.639 thing to. 0:26:49.640 --> 0:26:52.520 Play like an unreliable narrator type, so you know she 0:26:52.640 --> 0:26:53.360 does it very well. 0:26:53.640 --> 0:26:56.400 Yeah, yeah, all right, the beast in me? What else 0:26:56.440 --> 0:26:56.679 you got? 0:26:58.480 --> 0:27:01.480 Season two of Palm Royals on Apple TV. The first 0:27:01.520 --> 0:27:04.480 few episodes are out now. So season one, this is 0:27:04.520 --> 0:27:06.560 the one with Kristin Wig and Alison Janny and Laura 0:27:06.680 --> 0:27:09.120 Dern And season one I was like a little bit. 0:27:09.119 --> 0:27:12.840 I just felt mid about yeah, exactly, it's all right. 0:27:13.560 --> 0:27:16.160 But season two, I think they really sort of figure 0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:17.879 themselves out a little bit. You know, they give us 0:27:17.880 --> 0:27:20.400 a lot more humor, which you want when Kristen Wigg 0:27:20.480 --> 0:27:23.640 is the lead in your show, and you know, it's 0:27:23.840 --> 0:27:27.240 a lot more like hijinks and hilarity and you know, 0:27:27.440 --> 0:27:29.760 murder and things like that. So it moved along in 0:27:29.800 --> 0:27:33.960 a much faster clip. And yeah, So if you were 0:27:34.040 --> 0:27:36.680 sort of okay about the first season, which I was, 0:27:36.800 --> 0:27:39.399 and I understand, I think it's worth giving season two 0:27:39.440 --> 0:27:42.560 a try because so far it feels like it's correcting 0:27:42.600 --> 0:27:43.760 the mistakes of the first season. 0:27:43.880 --> 0:27:46.000 Yeah, and I love Kristin Wig, and it struck me 0:27:46.080 --> 0:27:47.640 as I watched I think we watched maybe the first 0:27:47.720 --> 0:27:49.280 and part of the second, I was like, okay, I'm 0:27:49.320 --> 0:27:51.639 not feeling this time to move and that's sad because 0:27:52.080 --> 0:27:53.960 it's everything now is like, okay, if you don't hook 0:27:54.000 --> 0:27:57.199 me at the beginning, I'm out right, it's Kristin Wig. 0:27:57.320 --> 0:27:59.440 You wanted Kristen Wigg to be Kristen Wigg and she wasn't. 0:27:59.640 --> 0:28:02.800 And that sounds like maybe in the second season they're 0:28:03.119 --> 0:28:04.960 starting to maybe play that a little bit better, which is, 0:28:05.240 --> 0:28:06.640 you know why people show up, Let's. 0:28:06.440 --> 0:28:10.080 Face it, exactly exactly. And Carol Burnett still in it 0:28:10.359 --> 0:28:11.520 in this season. She's talking. 0:28:11.600 --> 0:28:13.280 The first season she was pretty much in a coma 0:28:13.840 --> 0:28:16.520 most of the time. So yeah, it's it's giving you, 0:28:16.640 --> 0:28:19.080 it's given fans what they want, I think in season two. 0:28:19.040 --> 0:28:21.440 All right, fair enough, So you got the Beast to me, 0:28:21.520 --> 0:28:23.639 You've got Pomeroy al back on on Apple TV, and 0:28:23.680 --> 0:28:26.159 of course Wicked for Good is in theaters this weekend, 0:28:27.000 --> 0:28:28.920 like I got enough to choose, shom It's a busy weekend. 0:28:28.960 --> 0:28:31.359 Here Will all the Best again, Will Gance in New 0:28:31.480 --> 0:28:32.840 York at Will Dance with two S's. 0:28:32.880 --> 0:28:36.440 Thanks, thank you a great weekend, you too, you as well. 0:28:36.600 --> 0:28:38.000 And I don't know if I'm gonna have a chance 0:28:38.040 --> 0:28:42.160 to get out and go see Wicked Wicked two, because 0:28:42.160 --> 0:28:45.520 there's just so much good sports on started tonight. You 0:28:45.560 --> 0:28:47.840 got Alder sayin X in the Rain, you got you 0:28:48.000 --> 0:28:51.000 see in Louisville playing, which it feels like it's an 0:28:51.000 --> 0:28:54.640 afterthought now with all the stuff on the Thanksgiving pre 0:28:54.800 --> 0:28:58.520 Thanksgiving sports SCHMRGA sport this weekend you see in BYU 0:28:59.080 --> 0:29:01.440 Fox Big Noons town for that. We'll have the game 0:29:01.520 --> 0:29:04.720 for you here on Saturday night. Could be a little 0:29:04.760 --> 0:29:07.840 bit better. Maybe anticipating this had they not lost to 0:29:07.920 --> 0:29:10.600 Arizona now two in a row and BYU is tough. 0:29:12.400 --> 0:29:14.120 No one's really predicting you see to come out with 0:29:14.120 --> 0:29:16.920 a win on that one, and you know you certainly 0:29:16.920 --> 0:29:19.040 didn't see them losing out the season. That's a likelihood, 0:29:19.040 --> 0:29:21.240 it's a possibility. Maybe they can pull off the miracle 0:29:21.280 --> 0:29:23.400 tonight or tomorrow night. It'll be pretty good. You've got 0:29:23.520 --> 0:29:25.920 f C inner Miami as well, that is Lionel Messi 0:29:27.160 --> 0:29:30.760 in town and they take on FC at TQL Stadium. 0:29:32.400 --> 0:29:35.040 Winner advances in the playoffs. Now we're down to the 0:29:35.280 --> 0:29:38.240 just one win and out kind of scenario. If you lose, 0:29:38.280 --> 0:29:41.280 you're out. If you win, you keep on going. And 0:29:41.360 --> 0:29:43.840 then of course on Sunday, You've got Cincinnati and the 0:29:43.880 --> 0:29:47.720 New England Patriots. Not Brady, you're Belichick anymore. It's May 0:29:48.040 --> 0:29:51.000 and Vrabel and they're nine and two. The shocker, and 0:29:51.040 --> 0:29:53.200 I think the surprise story of the AFC for sure, 0:29:53.280 --> 0:29:55.920 the New England Patriots under Drake May getting it done. 0:29:56.280 --> 0:29:58.240 And the big question for us in the biggest sports 0:29:58.240 --> 0:30:00.400 store of the weekend, Joe Burrow will leap play or 0:30:00.440 --> 0:30:03.840 won't he play? That is the question Dan Horde was 0:30:03.880 --> 0:30:05.880 on earlier. He said, well, again, we're not going to 0:30:05.920 --> 0:30:08.760 note probably tomorrow at this point, he's going to practice 0:30:08.840 --> 0:30:11.240 practicing today, see how that goes, and then tomorrow will 0:30:11.240 --> 0:30:13.520 be a decision. We shall find out together whether or 0:30:13.520 --> 0:30:15.640 not Joey b is back, and that would be the 0:30:15.720 --> 0:30:17.760 Christmas miracle right there, would it not? In the Home 0:30:17.800 --> 0:30:20.160 of the best Bengals coverage seven hundred WW. 0:30:20.000 --> 0:30:22.160 Do you want to be an American idiot? 0:30:22.880 --> 0:30:26.440 Friday Morning's down flown on seven hundred WLW. There are 0:30:26.480 --> 0:30:29.600 some five and a half million Americans living abroad. One 0:30:29.680 --> 0:30:32.680 in five would like to move there permanently retire there. 0:30:33.440 --> 0:30:36.600 This is a disturbing stat. Forty percent of women ages 0:30:36.640 --> 0:30:39.960 fifteen to forty four absolutely want out of the country. 0:30:40.880 --> 0:30:43.040 We know we have a history here of people who 0:30:43.120 --> 0:30:45.920 have moved out and retired to countries abroad. Portugal, I 0:30:45.960 --> 0:30:47.920 think is still the number one, if I'm not mistaken, 0:30:48.720 --> 0:30:50.800 but on all this and whether it's right for you, 0:30:50.880 --> 0:30:53.600 because I know someone who through some you know, one 0:30:53.640 --> 0:30:56.719 of those mutual connection kind of things, not personally. They 0:30:56.840 --> 0:30:59.560 moved to Spain, I believe, and lasted two months before 0:30:59.560 --> 0:31:02.000 they said no coming back to the United States. 0:31:02.080 --> 0:31:02.680 Not what I thought. 0:31:02.720 --> 0:31:05.240 It was not for everybody. The ins and out of 0:31:05.320 --> 0:31:07.400 doing this I've had around in the past. A good 0:31:07.440 --> 0:31:10.440 time to revisit this today would be Kathleen Petticorn. She's 0:31:10.440 --> 0:31:14.080 an expert on living and retiring abroad. Specifically, Kathleen, welcome back. 0:31:14.160 --> 0:31:15.400 Are you hello? 0:31:15.560 --> 0:31:16.000 Good morning? 0:31:16.040 --> 0:31:16.360 How are you? 0:31:16.640 --> 0:31:20.040 I'm fine? So I think the first thing is is 0:31:20.120 --> 0:31:22.200 the shock going Wait a minute, I can retire now, 0:31:22.800 --> 0:31:25.040 but I'd have to live abroad. I think for most 0:31:25.080 --> 0:31:27.760 people you have a disconnect there. Okay, that am I 0:31:27.800 --> 0:31:30.160 going to see any Americans? What about my friends and family? 0:31:30.240 --> 0:31:32.360 It's like going to the Witness Protection It's retire the 0:31:32.480 --> 0:31:33.960 Witness Retirement. 0:31:33.600 --> 0:31:36.040 Program is what this is a good luck at it 0:31:36.160 --> 0:31:36.440 that way. 0:31:36.480 --> 0:31:39.520 I guess it's a big idea, it's a huge lead 0:31:40.280 --> 0:31:43.240 on the service. It can be intimidating, it can seem crazy, 0:31:43.320 --> 0:31:46.640 and it's not for everyone, but for a lot of people, 0:31:47.200 --> 0:31:49.720 literally millions of Americans have done this at this point, 0:31:50.640 --> 0:31:53.280 and so for a lot of people it's the answer 0:31:53.400 --> 0:31:57.160 to kind of turning retirement worries on their head, you know, 0:31:57.400 --> 0:31:59.880 instead of being concerned that you don't have enough to 0:32:00.160 --> 0:32:02.480 tyron and will your nest egg tear you through or 0:32:02.520 --> 0:32:04.600 you're gonna end up working part time at wawmarts or 0:32:04.680 --> 0:32:08.200 driving an uber or something. In retirement, there are lots 0:32:08.240 --> 0:32:11.080 of places where you can go on a modest you know, 0:32:11.240 --> 0:32:13.760 monthly nest egg, say fifteen hundred dollars a month in 0:32:13.880 --> 0:32:17.200 retirement income or in some cases even less, you can 0:32:17.320 --> 0:32:20.200 live not just a getting buy Okay, I'm meeting my 0:32:20.320 --> 0:32:24.880 expensive kind of retirement, but a really interesting, fun, adventure 0:32:24.960 --> 0:32:25.800 filled retirement. 0:32:26.440 --> 0:32:29.320 All right. So, I guess question number one is where 0:32:29.400 --> 0:32:31.160 in the world where do I go? Generally? Is it 0:32:31.600 --> 0:32:32.680 South America. 0:32:33.520 --> 0:32:36.120 Most For the most part, You're right, Americans focus on 0:32:36.240 --> 0:32:39.960 Latin America, Central America, South America, the Caribbean because First, 0:32:40.000 --> 0:32:43.080 it's nearby. It's unless you go way down south to 0:32:43.600 --> 0:32:46.640 Argentina and or Uruguay for example. It's accessible, so you 0:32:46.720 --> 0:32:48.760 can get back and forth, and you don't have to 0:32:48.840 --> 0:32:51.440 be one hundred percent removed from your family and friends 0:32:51.520 --> 0:32:53.840 back home. They can visit you, you can go back 0:32:53.880 --> 0:32:56.600 home to visit them. Plus, this part of the world 0:32:56.720 --> 0:32:59.800 has what most retirees are looking for, which is great. 0:33:00.040 --> 0:33:02.240 There are lots of sunshine and a very low cost 0:33:02.320 --> 0:33:04.040 of living, high low. 0:33:03.920 --> 0:33:05.920 Cost of living. What's the attraction? What are we talking here? 0:33:06.080 --> 0:33:10.080 Well, well, let's say in Ecuador, for example, which is 0:33:10.120 --> 0:33:12.640 a top choice from a lot of Americans have retired 0:33:12.960 --> 0:33:15.520 to the city, the colonial city of Quanka, Ecuador in 0:33:15.600 --> 0:33:18.240 the mountains, and this would be one of the most 0:33:18.280 --> 0:33:22.120 affordable options right now. And you could live in Quanka, Ecuador. 0:33:22.200 --> 0:33:26.320 I know American retireties doing it and really enjoying, loving 0:33:26.360 --> 0:33:29.680 their lives on one thousand to twelve hundred dollars a month. 0:33:29.880 --> 0:33:32.600 So that's a pretty modest budget. If you have more 0:33:32.680 --> 0:33:35.800 than that, then your lifestyle can just expand from there, 0:33:36.200 --> 0:33:39.200 you know, with more travel, more nights out, more dinners out, 0:33:39.280 --> 0:33:41.560 that kind of thing. But to enjoy even a really 0:33:41.640 --> 0:33:44.960 good life and a safe, comfortable life on as little 0:33:44.960 --> 0:33:46.080 as one thousand dollars a month. 0:33:46.320 --> 0:33:48.760 That's incredible. So twelve thousand dollars a year, I could 0:33:48.800 --> 0:33:49.719 live like a king down there. 0:33:50.960 --> 0:33:53.640 That's It's true. It sounds like marketing type, I know 0:33:53.720 --> 0:33:55.280 when you just say it out like that, but I 0:33:55.440 --> 0:33:56.720 know so many people doing it. 0:33:57.120 --> 0:34:00.680 All right, what about medical? What about that? You go, okay, 0:34:00.760 --> 0:34:02.280 well that's great. Well, I'm gonna get old, I'm gonna 0:34:02.280 --> 0:34:03.200 get sick. I need care. 0:34:03.320 --> 0:34:06.280 What happens then, and that's of course a big concern. 0:34:06.480 --> 0:34:10.719 The first point to make is the United States. Healthcare 0:34:10.840 --> 0:34:13.760 and health insurance is more expensive in the United States 0:34:13.840 --> 0:34:16.160 than anywhere else in the world. So everywhere else you go, 0:34:16.320 --> 0:34:18.319 it's going to be more affordable to seek the care 0:34:18.400 --> 0:34:21.080 you need. Then your question is, okay, but what standard 0:34:21.160 --> 0:34:24.520 of care? Well, the truth is the healthcare in many 0:34:24.560 --> 0:34:27.279 other countries is better than in the United States, and 0:34:27.480 --> 0:34:29.800 in most of the world it's as good. 0:34:29.640 --> 0:34:30.800 As it is in the United States. 0:34:30.840 --> 0:34:34.680 Certainly the places that we're talking about and suggesting so, 0:34:35.360 --> 0:34:38.480 and certainly in a city, so in Quinca, Ecuador, here 0:34:38.520 --> 0:34:41.520 in Panama City, Panama, where I'm based right now. In 0:34:42.719 --> 0:34:45.120 let me see Medicie in Columbia, which is another really 0:34:45.200 --> 0:34:48.320 interesting choice. And in the medician for example, has the 0:34:48.400 --> 0:34:51.160 best from the best medical care in all of South America. 0:34:51.600 --> 0:34:54.279 If you then look farther afield to Europe, well for sure, 0:34:54.360 --> 0:34:56.800 the medical care as a rule is going to be 0:34:56.880 --> 0:34:59.120 better than in the United States, and it's going to 0:34:59.160 --> 0:35:02.279 be much more for And there is an opportunity. This 0:35:02.400 --> 0:35:05.080 doesn't work for everyone, but there is an opportunity in 0:35:05.280 --> 0:35:08.160 for example, Portugal, which is a great place to live, 0:35:08.520 --> 0:35:12.040 a beautiful, interesting, historic country with a lot of foreign 0:35:12.320 --> 0:35:16.120 residents and retirees, meaning a lot of English spoken, beautiful beaches, golf, 0:35:16.239 --> 0:35:19.319 everything the retire he wants, including great weather, very low 0:35:19.400 --> 0:35:22.239 cost of living, and if you establish residency there, which 0:35:22.320 --> 0:35:24.440 is not hard to do, healthcare. 0:35:24.160 --> 0:35:24.680 Is free. 0:35:26.120 --> 0:35:27.680 Free, it's free. 0:35:27.800 --> 0:35:29.480 Well, what kind of taxes am I paying on that? 0:35:31.200 --> 0:35:31.439 None? 0:35:32.560 --> 0:35:35.759 If most countries don't tax retirement income, you'll have the 0:35:35.880 --> 0:35:39.479 same tax obligation in the United States that you would 0:35:39.600 --> 0:35:41.680 if you were living in the United States. And American 0:35:41.800 --> 0:35:45.319 has his US tax obligation. No matter where he goes 0:35:45.360 --> 0:35:47.360 in the world or how long he stays outside the 0:35:47.440 --> 0:35:51.080 United States, he never loses that, but you don't necessarily 0:35:51.200 --> 0:35:54.440 acquire a second tax obligation in the new country where 0:35:54.480 --> 0:35:57.600 you go. It's a country by country thing, but most 0:35:57.680 --> 0:35:59.520 countries don't tax retireant income. 0:36:00.600 --> 0:36:04.520 Kathleen again on this year, blowing my mind, Kathleen Petticoor, 0:36:04.600 --> 0:36:06.160 how to retire overseas. Everything you need to know to 0:36:06.200 --> 0:36:08.000 live well, So all right, let me let me get 0:36:08.040 --> 0:36:10.799 this straight. The weather's a lot better. I can live 0:36:10.920 --> 0:36:13.120 comfortable like a king. I can live like Bill Cunningham 0:36:13.160 --> 0:36:15.920 for one thousand dollars a month. I could have servants. 0:36:16.080 --> 0:36:19.239 I could have women naked women feeding me grapes. I 0:36:19.320 --> 0:36:21.560 could have my own beef, cow milk. I could have 0:36:21.920 --> 0:36:25.319 my own bar inside all that stuff. The safety thing, 0:36:25.520 --> 0:36:26.960 well we'll get to that in a second. Maybe maybe 0:36:27.000 --> 0:36:31.240 that's there. There's no taxes, the healthcare is better and cheaper. 0:36:31.560 --> 0:36:33.480 What the hell am I doing in the United States? 0:36:34.360 --> 0:36:36.160 Well, when you look at it, that can be the 0:36:36.280 --> 0:36:40.560 conclusion why not do this? The only real downside, and 0:36:40.680 --> 0:36:43.640 it's a downside, is that you are leaving behind everything 0:36:43.680 --> 0:36:45.360 you've known to this point in your life. And for 0:36:45.480 --> 0:36:49.399 some people that's crazy, scary, and maybe paralyzing. So you're 0:36:49.520 --> 0:36:53.560 leaving your family, your whole personal infrastructure of support, your 0:36:53.560 --> 0:36:57.040 whole community, all your friends, all your connections. So that's 0:36:57.080 --> 0:36:59.080 a big deal and you don't want to overlook that. 0:36:59.280 --> 0:37:01.080 And then of course there's going to be culture shock 0:37:01.200 --> 0:37:03.879 on the other end that you know, the life will 0:37:03.920 --> 0:37:08.000 be different and always big and small. For some people's 0:37:08.600 --> 0:37:11.360 that's exciting, that's an adventure. They think, oh wow, this 0:37:11.520 --> 0:37:13.040 is going to be so much fun. I'm going to 0:37:13.120 --> 0:37:16.640 learn how people live in the outdoor of Portugal. And 0:37:16.760 --> 0:37:18.440 I spent a lot of time there. I can tell 0:37:18.440 --> 0:37:21.080 you it's a really nice place to live. Other people think, 0:37:21.239 --> 0:37:23.800 oh my gosh, they don't speak English. I won't know anyone. 0:37:23.960 --> 0:37:26.360 Everything will be different. No, that's not for me, and 0:37:26.719 --> 0:37:29.160 fair enough, you know it isn't for everyone. 0:37:29.320 --> 0:37:31.520 Yeah, I don't know anybody I like hand my small 0:37:31.560 --> 0:37:33.960 circle of friends. What about the language barrier, Kathleen. 0:37:34.560 --> 0:37:36.680 That's that is something you have to think about. And 0:37:36.800 --> 0:37:39.200 if that really intimidates you, if you really think I'm 0:37:39.360 --> 0:37:41.960 at this stage of life, I'm not learning any language, Well, 0:37:41.960 --> 0:37:44.960 there are choices options where they speak English. Believes, for example, 0:37:45.239 --> 0:37:48.080 is an English speaking country, and Believe is a great choice. 0:37:48.160 --> 0:37:51.480 You know, it's it's Caribbean beaches. It's got a big 0:37:51.680 --> 0:37:55.040 xpac community, and everybody speaks English, Belize, and it's got 0:37:55.080 --> 0:37:57.160 the same advantages like all right, So the big question 0:37:57.280 --> 0:37:57.880 is about safety. 0:37:57.880 --> 0:37:59.440 If I'm in American I can live in a thousand 0:37:59.480 --> 0:38:03.360 dollars a month. I go there, I'm a target now right, 0:38:03.440 --> 0:38:05.080 I'm going to get it kidnapped. I'm going to get 0:38:05.280 --> 0:38:07.560 held in some sort of sell for billions of dollars. 0:38:07.800 --> 0:38:09.080 I'm never going to see the light of day in 0:38:09.120 --> 0:38:10.759 my family, and I'm going to die in some foreign 0:38:10.840 --> 0:38:12.520 hell hole because Kathleen told me to go. 0:38:13.080 --> 0:38:16.320 Because I sent you there a card, is your fault send. 0:38:16.239 --> 0:38:21.720 Me the ransom note? But no, I know the safety 0:38:21.800 --> 0:38:23.440 is an issue. I don't mean to make light of 0:38:23.480 --> 0:38:25.720 it and be too cavalier. But what you just described 0:38:25.840 --> 0:38:28.759 is not the reality in anywhere in the world right now, 0:38:28.880 --> 0:38:33.200 except certain countries where war is there's active war and conflict, 0:38:33.239 --> 0:38:35.920 and they're not on the list, of course. But in 0:38:36.040 --> 0:38:39.320 all the places that we're talking about, you're not a target. 0:38:40.000 --> 0:38:42.640 In Panama, for example, where I've lived for the past 0:38:42.680 --> 0:38:48.000 ten years, Americans are such a welcome and so welcome 0:38:48.040 --> 0:38:50.400 and part of the landscape because of the Panama Canal. 0:38:50.600 --> 0:38:53.600 Here for the past hundred years, Americans have been so 0:38:53.840 --> 0:38:56.200 much a part of this country. It's economy, it's culture. 0:38:56.480 --> 0:38:58.400 There are so many Americans here and they have been 0:38:58.480 --> 0:39:02.120 for generations. Were just part of the scene. Now Panama 0:39:02.200 --> 0:39:04.960 is a is a unique situation because of this, you know, 0:39:05.280 --> 0:39:08.479 century long connection due to the canal. But in many 0:39:08.560 --> 0:39:12.120 countries as well, there are established expat communities and you're 0:39:12.200 --> 0:39:15.840 not again, you're not a target. You're a lot of 0:39:15.920 --> 0:39:19.000 it is on the extat, on the retiree. You have 0:39:19.120 --> 0:39:21.040 to make an effort to make friends, just as you 0:39:21.080 --> 0:39:25.000 would if you in retirement, moved from the Midwest to Florida, 0:39:25.080 --> 0:39:27.600 say to a kind of traditional retirement location in the 0:39:27.719 --> 0:39:31.000 United States, and you've never spent any time in Naples, Florida, 0:39:31.040 --> 0:39:33.760 and there you decide, you decide to retire into Naples, Florida. 0:39:33.840 --> 0:39:34.600 You don't know anyone. 0:39:34.719 --> 0:39:36.520 Oh, if I got a hoard eleven Naples, I could 0:39:36.560 --> 0:39:39.000 buy Belize good night exactly. 0:39:39.280 --> 0:39:41.319 But you know, but if you move to Naples, you're 0:39:41.360 --> 0:39:43.080 going to have to make an effort to make new friends, 0:39:43.200 --> 0:39:44.920 right or you're going to be lonely and sit in 0:39:45.000 --> 0:39:47.120 your apartment all day. It will be the same in 0:39:47.200 --> 0:39:50.200 another country. The only difference, and it's a big difference, 0:39:50.400 --> 0:39:53.840 is the language. But it's depending how much that frightened 0:39:53.880 --> 0:39:56.480 you to the place where there are already lots of 0:39:56.520 --> 0:39:59.680 Americans living. And I could name six of these places, 0:40:00.080 --> 0:40:02.600 you know, quickly one would be believed. One would be 0:40:02.680 --> 0:40:06.040 Panama City, Medagine. Colombia has a lot of Americans right now. 0:40:06.160 --> 0:40:10.320 Clank Ecuador. We talked about go to places in Mexico, 0:40:10.560 --> 0:40:14.560 a heat for example, big American community there. Retirees then 0:40:14.920 --> 0:40:17.920 you and they're so welcoming because you know, once you've 0:40:17.960 --> 0:40:20.120 done something like this, you're so excited about it and 0:40:20.200 --> 0:40:22.960 you realize this is so fun and you build confidence 0:40:23.000 --> 0:40:25.279 and you want to share that with the next guy 0:40:25.320 --> 0:40:25.680 in line. 0:40:25.719 --> 0:40:25.880 You have. 0:40:26.000 --> 0:40:28.120 The guy behind you in line coming along is. 0:40:28.160 --> 0:40:31.880 Medi you said, Medizine. Colombia's Medizine, the same Medizine, Mediine. 0:40:32.320 --> 0:40:33.520 We're talking Pablo Escobar. 0:40:34.360 --> 0:40:37.920 We are, that's the same place. And remember Pablo Escobar, 0:40:37.960 --> 0:40:40.120 of course is dead more than twenty five years ago. 0:40:40.920 --> 0:40:43.600 That the city has that history, but that is its history, 0:40:43.719 --> 0:40:47.359 and the city today has reinvented itself. It's winning all 0:40:47.440 --> 0:40:51.480 kinds of City Innovation Awards and one of the most 0:40:51.600 --> 0:40:56.480 progressive and been really frankly pretty and pleasant and safe 0:40:56.600 --> 0:40:58.400 cities in the world today, and it's winning lots of 0:40:58.440 --> 0:41:01.000 awards for that because Energy in Columbia is one of 0:41:01.040 --> 0:41:04.919 the world's greatest comeback stories of the past twenty years. 0:41:05.400 --> 0:41:10.400 I like the Pittsburgh of Colombia is well. Thanks for 0:41:10.680 --> 0:41:13.719 tolerating me, Kathleen Petticord, and good luck with everything. Thanks 0:41:13.760 --> 0:41:18.040 again for joining the show. As always, be well, Hi, 0:41:18.200 --> 0:41:21.600 she gone. If you are older and you're like, I 0:41:21.719 --> 0:41:24.000 got this pile of money, I don't know if I 0:41:24.040 --> 0:41:27.200 can retire, Maybe I move abroad it and save some money. 0:41:27.200 --> 0:41:27.440 You can. 0:41:27.520 --> 0:41:29.279 I mean there's places, as she mentioned, you can live 0:41:29.360 --> 0:41:32.720 very cheaply. I think that's different than certainly than young people, 0:41:32.840 --> 0:41:35.800 especially young women four to ten women age fifteen to 0:41:35.880 --> 0:41:38.759 forty four said they'd move abroad permanently if given the opportunity. 0:41:38.800 --> 0:41:42.280 That's about four times higher than it was in twenty fourteen. 0:41:42.440 --> 0:41:44.480 And the top of my head reasons why I think 0:41:44.600 --> 0:41:51.600 number one would be a political dissatisfaction because most women 0:41:51.719 --> 0:41:55.120 that age and that age group, they lean democratic, and 0:41:55.320 --> 0:41:59.200 young men are less left leaning, and so with the 0:41:59.239 --> 0:42:02.799 political climate we live in that makes it appealing, which 0:42:02.800 --> 0:42:04.680 I think is also kind of short sighted. I mean, 0:42:04.680 --> 0:42:06.600 it makes for since you're eighteen, because you tend to 0:42:06.719 --> 0:42:10.400 make decisions quickly and rashly. But by the time in 0:42:10.480 --> 0:42:13.200 your thirties or forties, you're a little bit more thoughtful 0:42:13.200 --> 0:42:15.120 about things and just simply going I can't stand it 0:42:15.120 --> 0:42:17.120 any more and be leaving. Well, it might change in 0:42:17.200 --> 0:42:20.120 three years. You know, it could go back. Then what 0:42:20.200 --> 0:42:22.279 do you move? Wind up moving back? It's gonna cost 0:42:22.280 --> 0:42:23.200 you a lot of time and money. 0:42:23.239 --> 0:42:23.480 I think. 0:42:25.160 --> 0:42:28.120 I think there's a lack of confidence and institutions. Certainly 0:42:28.160 --> 0:42:30.799 we've seen the erosion of that as well. Reproductive rights 0:42:30.800 --> 0:42:33.920 are concerned for women, although I mean here in Ohio, 0:42:34.000 --> 0:42:36.400 look at the battle we're having with that. Despite what 0:42:36.440 --> 0:42:39.920 the voters wanted, seems like the legislator still wants to 0:42:39.960 --> 0:42:42.439 do their own thing. And also, let's face it, women 0:42:42.600 --> 0:42:44.520 And here's an interesting part about it, and this is 0:42:44.560 --> 0:42:47.839 the rub two men and women, is that women are 0:42:47.920 --> 0:42:52.879 so upwardly mobile. Now you can be put under your 0:42:52.920 --> 0:42:55.200 money's portable, it's not tied to anything. You can work 0:42:55.239 --> 0:42:57.440 abroad if you want to do your job from abroad, 0:42:59.000 --> 0:43:02.480 and as women continue to have broken through the glass ceiling, 0:43:03.560 --> 0:43:07.680 they continue to make more money than their predecessors, and 0:43:08.280 --> 0:43:09.880 they can decide to do what they want with their 0:43:09.920 --> 0:43:15.040 own money, and even being young and married, it doesn't Hey, 0:43:15.120 --> 0:43:17.280 I don't think they see marriage as a burieder relocation. 0:43:17.560 --> 0:43:19.279 Where this is we're going to do. And there's a 0:43:19.360 --> 0:43:21.160 growing number of young men who are staying home, and 0:43:21.280 --> 0:43:23.680 young men see more disaffected and probably less likely to 0:43:23.719 --> 0:43:26.719 move away simply because they don't have the same opportunity 0:43:26.760 --> 0:43:28.920 and means that women do. Believe it or not, when 0:43:28.960 --> 0:43:33.279 you talk about college education, predominatly women now are going 0:43:33.320 --> 0:43:35.520 to school. Young men are being left behind. And maybe 0:43:35.640 --> 0:43:37.160 I don't know if that's the future of our country. 0:43:37.280 --> 0:43:40.160 Probably not, but I think it's an interesting snapshot and 0:43:40.200 --> 0:43:42.640 where we are today in America that so many young 0:43:42.719 --> 0:43:46.440 women want out. But that will change in a few 0:43:46.520 --> 0:43:49.440 years as well. It always does, it always does. Got 0:43:49.480 --> 0:43:51.000 to get a news update in in a few minutes 0:43:51.040 --> 0:43:54.359 here on seven hundred WLW Winter Return Austin. This year 0:43:54.360 --> 0:43:56.880 we got what's the biggest sports news this week and 0:43:56.960 --> 0:44:00.600 biggest sports story of the weekend. For a minute, I 0:44:00.640 --> 0:44:04.239 thought it surely would be the sane ex elder game 0:44:05.160 --> 0:44:07.279 at pay Court tonight with all this rain, Hopefully you 0:44:07.360 --> 0:44:09.440 bring a I'd bring a garbage bag with me as 0:44:09.480 --> 0:44:11.680 a poncho if I were you for going on this. 0:44:13.320 --> 0:44:15.960 But now with the news it looks like Joe Burrow 0:44:16.040 --> 0:44:19.040 may wind up playing and going on Sunday. That seems 0:44:19.080 --> 0:44:20.680 has the vaulted to the top. I don't know to 0:44:20.760 --> 0:44:23.319 expect this. I don't know if I expect to win 0:44:23.400 --> 0:44:27.840 out of it. It's certainly interesting and also testament to 0:44:28.000 --> 0:44:31.080 Joe Burrow's tenacity coming back from an injury like this. 0:44:32.480 --> 0:44:34.440 You hope he doesn't get reinjured. With the way the 0:44:35.480 --> 0:44:38.080 Bengals may protect him, but specifically the defense, it seems 0:44:38.120 --> 0:44:42.080 like a feudal cause. But nonetheless we'll find out what happens. 0:44:42.160 --> 0:44:44.320 Patriots coming to town on Sunday. You also have I 0:44:44.400 --> 0:44:47.120 think this is a big one too, is at TQL Stadium. 0:44:47.920 --> 0:44:50.680 You've got FC Cincinnati against Inter Miami and Legal MESSI 0:44:51.680 --> 0:44:55.200 and UH winner takes all. It's a one game playoff 0:44:55.360 --> 0:44:58.840 between those two clubs and the match at TQL Stadium. 0:44:58.880 --> 0:45:00.800 It's going to be loud in Rock get a TQL 0:45:00.880 --> 0:45:04.319 for sure, and they've kind of. I don't say had 0:45:04.360 --> 0:45:07.000 their way with Messy because in the past, you know, 0:45:07.080 --> 0:45:09.799 there's been issues with that team, and I just think, 0:45:09.880 --> 0:45:11.440 you know, from those they talked to them, certainly a 0:45:11.560 --> 0:45:13.680 growing soccer expert, but not even close. It just seems 0:45:13.719 --> 0:45:16.560 like Cincinnati's deeper. But again, can they advance to the 0:45:16.680 --> 0:45:19.520 next round of the playoffs? They got the Columbus monkey 0:45:19.560 --> 0:45:21.200 off their back, so to speak. Can they beat Little 0:45:21.239 --> 0:45:23.600 Messi's team and Inner Miami And there's a lot of 0:45:23.600 --> 0:45:25.600 pressure on Inn Miami too. I don't know if that 0:45:25.640 --> 0:45:27.560 helps them being on the road or not. But with 0:45:27.680 --> 0:45:29.880 all the talent that they have, they can't seem to 0:45:30.000 --> 0:45:32.680 win a championship. So we'll see if hopefully FC can 0:45:32.719 --> 0:45:37.040 advance there. You've got what Fox pregame college football noon 0:45:37.080 --> 0:45:42.920 tomorrow at Knippert Stadium in advance of UC BYU. Hopefully 0:45:43.120 --> 0:45:44.960 UC can stop the bleeding and get a win. They 0:45:45.000 --> 0:45:46.439 need to. They need to win out at this point 0:45:46.520 --> 0:45:48.440 they got because at this way it's going to be 0:45:48.560 --> 0:45:50.920 the I think it's gonna be Elbow Macaroni Bowl if 0:45:50.960 --> 0:45:54.879 they lose out here. Not to disparage Elbow Macaroniy. Who 0:45:54.880 --> 0:45:56.759 the hell isn't a fan. But you know what I'm saying, 0:45:57.360 --> 0:46:01.080 we got that, we got the UC Louisville games overshadowed 0:46:01.160 --> 0:46:04.080 with all this stuff too. Just bad timing on that one, 0:46:04.120 --> 0:46:07.400 I think at the Heritage Bank Center. But plenty of tickets, 0:46:07.480 --> 0:46:10.200 plenty of good seats still available, as they say, got 0:46:10.280 --> 0:46:12.479 to get a news update in and more to follow 0:46:12.520 --> 0:46:14.680 Scott's loan on the home of the best Bengals coverage 0:46:14.719 --> 0:46:17.279 and the home of the Bearcats. Austin Elmer to talk 0:46:17.320 --> 0:46:19.479 about all that and more right after news on seven 0:46:19.560 --> 0:46:25.359 hundred wol thebody Scott's loanship Friday morning, ten thirty eight. 0:46:25.680 --> 0:46:28.600 That means Austin Elmore is here. From ESPN fifteen thirty. 0:46:28.680 --> 0:46:32.880 My god, we've got a little Thanksgiving schmorgasbord of sports 0:46:32.920 --> 0:46:36.080 to get through this morning. No small tastic through Audi. 0:46:36.120 --> 0:46:40.000 Good morning, Good morning Flani, thanks for having me. Austin 0:46:40.040 --> 0:46:43.000 Elmore of course, from ESPN fifteenth thirty embedded right now 0:46:43.160 --> 0:46:45.759 in the bowels of pay Course Stadium, awaiting the word 0:46:45.840 --> 0:46:48.080 to find out if it's white smoke Burrow plays, if 0:46:48.080 --> 0:46:51.239 it's black smoke Flacco plays. We're waiting for that to 0:46:51.239 --> 0:46:54.600 occur right now. Speaking of things that are Catholic Saint 0:46:54.760 --> 0:46:58.640 X tonight and Elder at pay Court Stadium. Are you ready? 0:46:58.840 --> 0:47:00.480 Are you excited? Are you fired up? 0:47:01.920 --> 0:47:03.080 I am fired up about it. 0:47:03.200 --> 0:47:06.720 You know, I've got family coming down from Sydney, Ohio 0:47:06.960 --> 0:47:10.000 to watch this game tonight at paid Course Stadium, just 0:47:10.080 --> 0:47:13.319 because they're so excited to check out some high level 0:47:13.400 --> 0:47:15.200 high school football inside. 0:47:14.800 --> 0:47:16.200 An NFL stadium. What did I see? 0:47:16.200 --> 0:47:20.000 Almost eighteen thousand tickets now sold, and even with the 0:47:20.040 --> 0:47:22.239 weather forecast being what it is, I think that says 0:47:22.280 --> 0:47:25.120 a lot about what the high school football and those 0:47:25.160 --> 0:47:26.919 two teams especially mean to this city. 0:47:27.120 --> 0:47:28.879 Now you're playing for Holy Marvels. Is such a great 0:47:29.040 --> 0:47:31.440 rivalry to West side rivalry, and it's going to draw 0:47:31.440 --> 0:47:35.000 a lot of eyeballs that aren't actually have any relationship 0:47:35.040 --> 0:47:37.080 to the school whatsoever because it will be high quality football. 0:47:38.360 --> 0:47:42.240 Yeah, exactly, It's gonna be fun to watch. And obviously 0:47:42.280 --> 0:47:44.560 how the weather affects you know that the game plans. 0:47:44.680 --> 0:47:48.520 But the history between the two teams and the ability 0:47:48.560 --> 0:47:50.719 to run the ball especially I think is going to 0:47:50.760 --> 0:47:52.720 be an interesting part of the matchup tonight. 0:47:52.880 --> 0:47:55.759 I had a lotmaker on Adam Matthews eleven and that's 0:47:55.840 --> 0:47:59.280 his district high representative, and he's trying to get legislation 0:47:59.400 --> 0:48:02.960 through that would make it easier for publicly owned stadium 0:48:03.120 --> 0:48:06.000 like paid Course Stadium, Great American Ballpark, TQ Man. Maybe 0:48:06.040 --> 0:48:08.960 not TQL, but those two host high school events. Tennis 0:48:09.000 --> 0:48:12.520 Center and Mason for example. You could see that. I mean, 0:48:12.880 --> 0:48:14.440 if this does really well. It looks like it's going 0:48:14.480 --> 0:48:16.640 to do really well even with the weather tonight. Maybe 0:48:16.719 --> 0:48:19.839 not every big rivalry, but that would be kind of cool. 0:48:20.040 --> 0:48:22.800 Is like the Fridays that the Bengals aren't playing, You know, 0:48:22.880 --> 0:48:24.680 you could have a high school football game there and 0:48:24.760 --> 0:48:26.640 make it like a man I wouldn't be necessarily a 0:48:26.680 --> 0:48:28.160 game of the week, or maybe you could. I don't know. 0:48:29.800 --> 0:48:32.279 Yeah, I mean, I think there's also some sponsors that 0:48:32.320 --> 0:48:34.360 would love to step up and be a part of that. 0:48:34.480 --> 0:48:37.359 And obviously, as long as people are making money, it's 0:48:37.920 --> 0:48:40.239 all mostly anybody cares about. But yeah, I mean, it's 0:48:41.360 --> 0:48:43.719 a shame that we have to start putting legislation through 0:48:43.800 --> 0:48:45.919 to make something like that happen. I think it's also 0:48:46.080 --> 0:48:50.040 ridiculous that the NCAA has a rule that says the 0:48:50.200 --> 0:48:53.200 University of Cincinnati gets an unfair advantage by having that 0:48:53.320 --> 0:48:56.120 game on their campus at Nippert Stadium, Like, I don't 0:48:56.239 --> 0:48:58.880 understand that at all. I think Knippert would have been 0:48:58.920 --> 0:49:02.880 the perfect venue a game like this. But you know, 0:49:03.160 --> 0:49:05.400 either way, as long as you know some sort of 0:49:05.640 --> 0:49:07.680 attention is being brought to this and we're able to 0:49:07.760 --> 0:49:09.520 do something about it, I think it can only be 0:49:09.600 --> 0:49:12.640 a good thing for the area, for high school spoots. 0:49:12.719 --> 0:49:14.560 All of it kind of hard though, I mean, Friday 0:49:14.640 --> 0:49:16.840 night football high school. Then you've got of course, you 0:49:16.960 --> 0:49:19.600 see BYU Fox mcnds Intown. It's a big thing. The 0:49:19.640 --> 0:49:21.279 camp is going to be crowded down there, so I 0:49:21.320 --> 0:49:24.839 guess that's probably the timing. This was bad, But there's 0:49:24.880 --> 0:49:27.600 a UC team right there. I mean I talked Dan 0:49:27.640 --> 0:49:30.600 about this earlier. I can't believe they lost Arizona and 0:49:30.800 --> 0:49:33.279 now you come in limping, losing two and in real 0:49:33.400 --> 0:49:35.920 danger of making it three straight losses. Not the way 0:49:36.000 --> 0:49:38.200 Scott Sarafield wants to wrap up the back half of 0:49:38.239 --> 0:49:38.680 the season. 0:49:40.320 --> 0:49:41.080 No, not at all. 0:49:41.360 --> 0:49:44.640 It's been unfortunate, especially the way that Brendan Soresby has played. 0:49:44.680 --> 0:49:46.359 It's kind of been two years in a row now 0:49:46.520 --> 0:49:49.160 where he's kind of unraveled toward the end of the 0:49:49.200 --> 0:49:51.239 season and not at all looked like the guy that 0:49:51.400 --> 0:49:53.200 we saw in the early part of the season. Now, 0:49:53.280 --> 0:49:56.280 part of that could be the competition that they're facing, 0:49:56.400 --> 0:49:57.960 part of it could be is a little bit banged 0:49:58.040 --> 0:49:59.719 up as the season goes along. Part of it could 0:49:59.760 --> 0:50:02.400 be that Scott Saderfield and his offense aren't doing a 0:50:02.440 --> 0:50:04.760 good enough job adjusting to what some of those teams 0:50:04.800 --> 0:50:08.000 are doing. But either way, it's a nasty concoction that 0:50:08.080 --> 0:50:10.279 has led to failure for the Bearcats over the last 0:50:10.360 --> 0:50:12.360 couple of weeks. And you know they're going to be 0:50:12.400 --> 0:50:14.680 Bowl eligible, But I don't know that anybody in Clifton 0:50:14.719 --> 0:50:17.399 would sit there and tell you that that's good enough, 0:50:17.680 --> 0:50:20.120 especially considering the way that they started the season, with 0:50:20.200 --> 0:50:22.359 the returning players that they have, the work they did 0:50:22.400 --> 0:50:24.520 in the portal, and the fact that just a couple 0:50:24.560 --> 0:50:27.360 of weeks ago, a legitimate path to the Big Twelve 0:50:27.440 --> 0:50:32.279 Championship was in sight and now it's not really within play. 0:50:32.280 --> 0:50:35.080 I mean, it's possible, but it's unlikely, and I think 0:50:35.120 --> 0:50:35.719 that should. 0:50:35.560 --> 0:50:36.920 Leave a bad taste in the mouth of a lot 0:50:36.960 --> 0:50:37.800 of Bearcats fans. 0:50:38.320 --> 0:50:39.759 Yeah, I think, I mean, at this rate, you know 0:50:39.840 --> 0:50:43.120 you're hoping for a big twelve championship game and probably 0:50:43.280 --> 0:50:45.200 you know, we lose the BYU. Who knows what happens 0:50:45.239 --> 0:50:46.880 the last game this season. You're probably looking at the 0:50:46.880 --> 0:50:49.839 don't know what, the cremet Elbow Macaroni Bowl or something 0:50:49.920 --> 0:50:52.640 like that. Who the hell knows. You also have a 0:50:52.920 --> 0:50:55.480 way I forgot to mention. The big game this weekend, 0:50:55.520 --> 0:50:58.719 of course, is UCE in Louisville at Heritage Bank Center. 0:51:01.360 --> 0:51:03.040 Yeah, that's happening tonight as well. 0:51:04.400 --> 0:51:06.240 That pauses sound like one of the when the coaches 0:51:06.239 --> 0:51:08.000 are going, yeah we do. It's gonna look like a 0:51:08.120 --> 0:51:09.279 COVID game tonight, did it? 0:51:11.760 --> 0:51:15.840 I have no idea what to expect at that game tonight, 0:51:15.960 --> 0:51:17.640 but uh yeah, I mean it is. 0:51:17.760 --> 0:51:18.279 It is cool. 0:51:18.320 --> 0:51:19.880 I mean I don't know that I don't know that 0:51:19.960 --> 0:51:22.520 it's the best venue for that, and I know Wes 0:51:22.640 --> 0:51:27.719 Miller has made his thoughts known about that. Yeah, but 0:51:27.800 --> 0:51:30.239 Pat Kelsey feels the exact opposite because he was a 0:51:30.320 --> 0:51:33.120 West Sider who grew up going to you know, back 0:51:33.160 --> 0:51:35.759 then Riverfront Coliseum and that means a lot to him. 0:51:35.840 --> 0:51:38.640 So it's, you know, another one of those weird things 0:51:39.320 --> 0:51:41.560 that happens in college basketball. And I think when they 0:51:41.800 --> 0:51:43.960 when the Bearcats make the return trip to Louislle, they're 0:51:43.960 --> 0:51:45.280 gonna be playing at Freedom Hall. 0:51:45.160 --> 0:51:48.719 Which is kind of their version. So okay, it's. 0:51:48.280 --> 0:51:50.960 Whatever number six school in Townson. But again it just 0:51:51.040 --> 0:51:53.200 adds to what is a huge sports weekend. You got 0:51:53.280 --> 0:51:55.880 to speak on West Side alders Nex, you got this 0:51:56.160 --> 0:52:00.560 and b YU and you see at Nippert's Cougars nine 0:52:00.600 --> 0:52:03.759 to one, and it's a tall ass for UC. Let's 0:52:03.760 --> 0:52:05.839 put it that way before we get to the main 0:52:05.920 --> 0:52:08.239 event the entre, which is Bengals football. I will also 0:52:08.360 --> 0:52:11.000 throw in there that this is a do or die 0:52:11.120 --> 0:52:14.080 game for FC Cincinnati face a Lenal Messi Inner Miami 0:52:14.160 --> 0:52:17.040 the NFL Playoffs, MLS Playoffs, I should say on Sunday 0:52:17.040 --> 0:52:20.160 at five, you lose, you are out. At this point, 0:52:20.239 --> 0:52:21.360 I kind of like that format. 0:52:23.520 --> 0:52:25.279 Yeah, I mean in the first round when you go 0:52:26.480 --> 0:52:29.320 best of three and then you get into the second 0:52:29.440 --> 0:52:31.279 round and it really is for all the marbles. They 0:52:31.280 --> 0:52:33.400 didn't get that extra week of rest with some of 0:52:33.440 --> 0:52:36.800 the international stuff going on, But yeah, I mean f 0:52:36.880 --> 0:52:39.880 C Cincinnati has had a lot of success against Leonel 0:52:40.000 --> 0:52:42.879 Messi and against Enter Miami over the last couple of years, 0:52:42.960 --> 0:52:45.920 and so I think you come into this match with 0:52:46.000 --> 0:52:47.880 a lot of confidence. Number One, you kind of got 0:52:47.920 --> 0:52:50.000 the monkey off your back by beating Columbus and you 0:52:50.040 --> 0:52:51.040 don't have to worry about that. 0:52:51.640 --> 0:52:53.560 And you go into a team that, yeah, they have 0:52:53.719 --> 0:52:54.439 Messi and they. 0:52:54.360 --> 0:52:56.560 Have all these stars, and that's great. They're still a 0:52:56.640 --> 0:52:58.640 really good team. But that's a team that. 0:52:58.680 --> 0:53:01.480 You've had success against, you feel confident against, and it's 0:53:01.560 --> 0:53:04.000 not like you're facing some big, bad wolf again. So 0:53:04.719 --> 0:53:06.440 I think, you know, Pat Noonan is one of the 0:53:06.480 --> 0:53:08.960 best coaches in Major League Soccer, and the way that 0:53:09.040 --> 0:53:13.400 he's able to adjust his team depending on who he 0:53:13.480 --> 0:53:16.399 has available, who the opponent is the situation. I think 0:53:16.440 --> 0:53:19.160 he has such a great feel for those matches and 0:53:19.440 --> 0:53:22.200 that's a huge reason why they've been so successful. And 0:53:22.680 --> 0:53:24.640 I think, you know, when they play at home, they're 0:53:24.640 --> 0:53:26.520 a tough team to beat. I hope that's the case 0:53:26.560 --> 0:53:27.320 again on Sunday. 0:53:27.360 --> 0:53:30.160 Yeah, I think since he's a deeper team overall, younger team, 0:53:30.200 --> 0:53:32.000 you know, Messi and some other guys that team are 0:53:32.000 --> 0:53:34.960 a little but but then again, it's the pressure, right 0:53:35.000 --> 0:53:37.520 there is the pressure in an expectation to beat them, 0:53:38.040 --> 0:53:41.279 greater for Cincinnati than it is for Inner Miami, who 0:53:41.360 --> 0:53:43.600 tends to make mistakes when they get bear back against 0:53:43.600 --> 0:53:48.359 the wall. Who's who's the pressure on more them or us? 0:53:49.560 --> 0:53:50.640 I think it would be on them. 0:53:50.760 --> 0:53:53.600 I mean, they've spent hundreds and hundreds and hundreds. 0:53:53.280 --> 0:53:55.759 Of millions of dollars to get Messy and surrounding with 0:53:55.800 --> 0:53:58.800 all these great players, and they've changed coaches and you know, 0:53:58.920 --> 0:54:01.520 whether they're good or they are the face of Major 0:54:01.600 --> 0:54:05.280 League Soccer, yes, And you know, Messi has accomplished basically 0:54:05.360 --> 0:54:07.960 all there is to accomplish in the world of soccer. 0:54:08.800 --> 0:54:12.279 But I think it would still behoove him, just for 0:54:12.400 --> 0:54:16.360 his legacy and for all the hoop around his career. 0:54:16.840 --> 0:54:18.440 If he were to come to Major League Soccer and 0:54:18.560 --> 0:54:21.040 never be able to win an MLS Cup, that would 0:54:21.040 --> 0:54:23.359 be something that would be a bit disappointing for him. 0:54:23.560 --> 0:54:27.359 And and they're fans especially who follow him, so I'm 0:54:27.400 --> 0:54:28.560 sure they feel some pressure. 0:54:29.120 --> 0:54:29.400 Again. 0:54:29.600 --> 0:54:32.319 I mean, they're not posting this game. They're going up 0:54:32.360 --> 0:54:34.920 against the team that they haven't had success against very 0:54:35.000 --> 0:54:36.680 much over the year, so I'm sure they feel a 0:54:36.719 --> 0:54:38.440 little bit of pressure. It's like, gosh, we've got this 0:54:38.960 --> 0:54:41.480 all star lineup of great players with the greatest player 0:54:41.520 --> 0:54:44.200 who's ever played the game of soccer, and we can't 0:54:44.239 --> 0:54:47.120 get to the MLS Eastern Conference Finals, we can't get 0:54:47.160 --> 0:54:49.400 to MLS Cup. I think that's got to be in 0:54:49.440 --> 0:54:50.359 the back of their mind as well. 0:54:50.600 --> 0:54:52.919 Great way in Sunday, and of course before that will 0:54:52.960 --> 0:54:55.640 be the big sports story this weekend, and that is 0:54:55.719 --> 0:54:57.759 Joe Burrow. Will he play or not play? By the way, 0:54:57.800 --> 0:55:00.600 I believe it's fan duel. The playf RUMs now have 0:55:00.719 --> 0:55:04.440 betting odds up involving Joe Burrow in his passing, so 0:55:04.960 --> 0:55:08.400 that they're already saying it sounds like that Vegas believes 0:55:08.400 --> 0:55:10.640 that Joe Burrow is going to be a go on Sunday. 0:55:12.040 --> 0:55:14.120 Yeah, it's been weird kind of seeing the way that 0:55:14.200 --> 0:55:17.160 a lot of these national NFL insiders have talked about it, 0:55:17.360 --> 0:55:19.719 the chipperness and the voice of Zach Taylor when he 0:55:19.840 --> 0:55:23.960 was talking to Tom Brenhaman yesterday. I saw there's fantasy 0:55:24.080 --> 0:55:27.360 projections that have come out for Joe Burrow. It just 0:55:27.640 --> 0:55:30.120 all seems to point in the direction that he is 0:55:30.280 --> 0:55:33.160 going to play on Sunday. I'm going to play Devil's 0:55:33.160 --> 0:55:36.959 advocate for you. Here though, because they play in less 0:55:37.000 --> 0:55:39.600 than a week again against the Baltimore Ravens. And in 0:55:39.719 --> 0:55:43.160 those short weeks and that Thursday night, Thanksgiving Night game 0:55:43.239 --> 0:55:46.680 in Baltimore, that practice week is really weird because you're 0:55:46.840 --> 0:55:50.000 usually off on Monday, and then you got Tuesday, you're 0:55:50.040 --> 0:55:53.960 traveling on Wednesday. You don't get a normal full week 0:55:54.080 --> 0:55:57.040 of practice, right, And so the next step in Burrow's 0:55:57.520 --> 0:56:00.680 progression was this week to do a lets on elevens 0:56:00.719 --> 0:56:04.120 and see how he feels. This week could be being 0:56:04.320 --> 0:56:06.680 used as a way to get him ready for that 0:56:06.800 --> 0:56:09.800 Baltimore game, since he won't have a normal week of 0:56:09.960 --> 0:56:13.320 practice against Baltimore. Now, the goal has always been Thanksgiving 0:56:13.400 --> 0:56:16.080 or Thanksgiving Ish, and I'm not trying to pour cold 0:56:16.160 --> 0:56:18.320 water on this. I want Burrow to play on Sunday, 0:56:18.320 --> 0:56:20.000 and I hope he does, and I hope he plays well. 0:56:20.680 --> 0:56:23.759 But it could also be a way of saying, all right, listen, 0:56:23.840 --> 0:56:26.240 we've got a trunk created week. Next week, we won't 0:56:26.280 --> 0:56:29.239 have a normal practice. Let's use this week to get 0:56:29.320 --> 0:56:31.200 Joe all the way up to speed prior to that 0:56:31.280 --> 0:56:36.360 Baltimore game. Now, if Flacco's shoulder is so banged up 0:56:36.440 --> 0:56:38.920 that he doesn't really feel like he can, you know, 0:56:39.080 --> 0:56:40.960 operate the offense the way that they need him to. 0:56:41.040 --> 0:56:42.759 And again, if you go back to that Pittsburgh game, 0:56:43.239 --> 0:56:45.680 Joe Flacco hurt the Bengals. He did not play well, 0:56:45.960 --> 0:56:48.920 was not accurate, and did not have confidence in that shoulder. 0:56:49.000 --> 0:56:51.200 And so the answer could be is is Joe Burrow 0:56:51.280 --> 0:56:54.920 at eighty five percent better than Joe Flacco at seventy 0:56:54.960 --> 0:56:55.520 five percent? 0:56:55.640 --> 0:56:57.000 I think the answer to that is yes. 0:56:57.400 --> 0:56:59.200 And the other thing, you know, you talked about smoke 0:56:59.239 --> 0:57:02.279 coming out of pay or stadium, black smoke or white smoke. 0:57:02.320 --> 0:57:04.600 Thank god there's no orange smoke for Jake Browning because 0:57:04.600 --> 0:57:06.239 it doesn't seem like that's an option, and that would 0:57:06.239 --> 0:57:06.920 be a real. 0:57:06.800 --> 0:57:09.000 Oh yeah, even like a seventy p fifty percent Joe 0:57:09.080 --> 0:57:11.120 Burrow is still a better than one hundred percent Jake Browning. 0:57:11.680 --> 0:57:13.040 And so you look at it going, well, we're kind 0:57:13.080 --> 0:57:14.760 of options at this point. We've got to have somebody 0:57:14.840 --> 0:57:17.240 that's gonna at least post a reasonable chance of winning. 0:57:17.960 --> 0:57:19.919 But it feels like the season's over at the sport 0:57:19.960 --> 0:57:22.120 is specially that lost last week against the Steelers, which 0:57:22.120 --> 0:57:24.440 would like the other question is do you risk Joe 0:57:24.480 --> 0:57:27.160 Burrow coming back at this point, do you say, I 0:57:27.240 --> 0:57:29.040 know we want to get reps and I understand that, 0:57:29.240 --> 0:57:32.960 but my god, if something happens again just based on 0:57:33.040 --> 0:57:35.440 how this team is played and stood in front of 0:57:35.520 --> 0:57:38.400 him or lacked the rab at times, you're now risking 0:57:38.440 --> 0:57:41.200 the entire offseason here when you and and you're let's 0:57:41.200 --> 0:57:42.880 face it, you're going to have to start rebuilding and 0:57:42.960 --> 0:57:44.760 get some parts back in here. Joe Burr is going 0:57:44.800 --> 0:57:46.240 to be built big part of that. As always. 0:57:47.400 --> 0:57:50.000 If if there were three games left, I would agree 0:57:50.040 --> 0:57:53.080 with that sentiment, but there's not. There's seven games left. 0:57:53.120 --> 0:57:55.880 We're still in the month of November. The guys is 0:57:56.040 --> 0:57:58.920 being paid fifty five million dollars. You can't live your 0:57:58.960 --> 0:58:01.520 life and live your fo ball life out of fear. 0:58:01.920 --> 0:58:04.919 And I know that there's a belief that he's injury prone, 0:58:04.960 --> 0:58:06.920 and there's a long list of injuries that would suggest 0:58:07.000 --> 0:58:09.880 that he is, But that doesn't mean that he just 0:58:10.120 --> 0:58:12.440 skips the last seven games of the season. If he's 0:58:12.520 --> 0:58:15.880 medically cleared and he feels comfortable doing so. He's the 0:58:15.960 --> 0:58:18.480 best player on the team, he's the face of the franchise. 0:58:18.760 --> 0:58:21.800 Why wouldn't he play and technically they are still alive. 0:58:22.080 --> 0:58:24.280 Even though they're their chance of making the playoffs is 0:58:24.840 --> 0:58:27.920 is minuscule. And the other part of this too is 0:58:28.200 --> 0:58:30.000 if he doesn't play, Let's say he doesn't play the 0:58:30.080 --> 0:58:33.960 last seven games, then he goes from September, second week 0:58:34.000 --> 0:58:37.240 of September all the way to July without playing football. 0:58:37.920 --> 0:58:40.080 I feel like he needs the reps he needs to 0:58:40.120 --> 0:58:42.920 be able to play. Joe has always talked about how 0:58:43.000 --> 0:58:45.200 much he needs reps and how important that is to 0:58:45.280 --> 0:58:48.920 him being a consistent football player, and so I do 0:58:49.120 --> 0:58:51.160 think that's part of it as well, is you want 0:58:51.200 --> 0:58:52.760 your best players to play football. 0:58:53.440 --> 0:58:53.600 Well. 0:58:53.640 --> 0:58:55.520 The other factor here too is, you know, maybe this 0:58:55.640 --> 0:58:59.840 back to your your your salmon streaming up swim argument 0:59:00.000 --> 0:59:02.120 that they shouldn't play Burrow this week and let him 0:59:02.120 --> 0:59:05.480 have a full week practice before the Thanksgiving game at Baltimore, 0:59:05.880 --> 0:59:08.040 is the fact that Jamar Chase will not be playing 0:59:08.080 --> 0:59:10.040 in this game gives him a less option. I don't 0:59:10.040 --> 0:59:13.120 feel that somehow andre Yoshavas is going to find the 0:59:13.240 --> 0:59:16.760 ball right, So that gives it's going to take a 0:59:16.760 --> 0:59:18.480 little more time for him to find someone open. It 0:59:18.520 --> 0:59:21.440 exposes them a little bit more with that foot less 0:59:21.560 --> 0:59:22.960 tools than the toolbox for Joe. 0:59:24.640 --> 0:59:26.800 Yeah, and that also could be part of the reason 0:59:26.880 --> 0:59:29.640 why he is going to play against the New England 0:59:29.680 --> 0:59:32.440 Patriots is because well, they don't have Jamar Chase. And 0:59:32.520 --> 0:59:34.280 if you look at the last couple of weeks, I mean, 0:59:34.360 --> 0:59:37.080 Joe Flacco has has not tried to hide the fact 0:59:37.120 --> 0:59:39.200 that he is trying to throw the ball to Jamar Chase. 0:59:39.240 --> 0:59:41.400 He's just been spamming it to number one over and 0:59:41.480 --> 0:59:43.800 over and over again. And I wonder if there is 0:59:43.840 --> 0:59:46.640 a concern about the idea that Flacco could operate the 0:59:46.720 --> 0:59:49.680 offense without Jamar Chase. We know that Joe Burrow can, 0:59:49.840 --> 0:59:52.800 We've seen it, and it does give them a better 0:59:52.920 --> 0:59:55.840 chance to win obviously if Joe is out there, and 0:59:56.040 --> 0:59:59.320 especially if you know, without Jamar Chase, you like the 0:59:59.400 --> 1:00:02.640 odds of bur being able to operate that offense in 1:00:02.720 --> 1:00:03.800 the absence of Jamar Cha. 1:00:03.920 --> 1:00:06.120 Yeah, I mean, team is gonna see but you've got 1:00:06.160 --> 1:00:09.280 you know, Gasecki's gonna maybe we do get Kaseki back 1:00:09.320 --> 1:00:10.120 this week. That's big. 1:00:11.520 --> 1:00:13.040 Yeah, I think that's a big part of it. 1:00:13.200 --> 1:00:15.760 Mike Kasicki being in there and kind of being an 1:00:15.800 --> 1:00:18.600 extension that wide receiver group We've seen some flashes from 1:00:18.640 --> 1:00:21.000 Mitch Tinsley had the great touchdown in Week two and 1:00:21.200 --> 1:00:23.840 was unbelievable in the preseason. He's going to get a chance. 1:00:24.320 --> 1:00:26.320 Charlie Jones, I would like to see get a chance. 1:00:26.400 --> 1:00:28.040 A fourth round pick from a couple of years ago, 1:00:28.120 --> 1:00:30.320 had a really strong camp and just kind of gets 1:00:30.360 --> 1:00:31.280 buried in the depth chart. 1:00:31.360 --> 1:00:33.800 But yeah, you're gonna get some opportunities for some guys. 1:00:33.800 --> 1:00:34.760 And that's part of the season. 1:00:34.840 --> 1:00:37.440 As part of the story of the season is evaluating 1:00:38.120 --> 1:00:41.640 what you have and these young players as you try 1:00:41.720 --> 1:00:43.160 to figure out what your playing is going to be 1:00:43.240 --> 1:00:45.080 moving forward, you want to see them be able to 1:00:45.120 --> 1:00:47.560 play with Joe Burrow. So you know, Burrow has a 1:00:47.600 --> 1:00:49.800 lot more reps logged with all those guys than Joe 1:00:49.880 --> 1:00:52.000 Flacco does, and I think that's part of it. 1:00:52.320 --> 1:00:55.240 Yeah. Austin Olmo from ESPN fifteen thirty on the Scott 1:00:55.240 --> 1:00:57.440 Sluncheons Springy every Friday morning, we talk sports. There is 1:00:57.440 --> 1:00:59.640 a lot going on, including the Bengals of course, or 1:01:00.000 --> 1:01:01.440 I don't know whether or not Joe Burrow is going 1:01:01.520 --> 1:01:04.360 to play on Sunday. We'll find out sometime tomorrow. I 1:01:04.400 --> 1:01:06.920 would suppose Will have an indication if that looks like 1:01:07.000 --> 1:01:09.320 it's a go or not. You've got a red hot 1:01:09.440 --> 1:01:11.680 Patriots team in there. No one really saw this coming 1:01:11.960 --> 1:01:14.000 in the offseason, that they're going to be at nine 1:01:14.040 --> 1:01:16.480 to two. I mean, it's an unreal As well as 1:01:16.480 --> 1:01:19.600 they're playing on offense, it's also fair to say their 1:01:19.680 --> 1:01:23.560 defense is outstanding, best run defense in football. It's gonna 1:01:23.560 --> 1:01:25.440 be a long day for Chase Brown. 1:01:27.200 --> 1:01:30.000 Yeah, And that I find interesting too, is like if 1:01:30.080 --> 1:01:32.680 Burrow does play, you would assume the Bengals will want 1:01:32.720 --> 1:01:34.960 to run the football and you not put too much 1:01:35.000 --> 1:01:37.880 on his plate, not drop him back a lot. Well, 1:01:38.120 --> 1:01:40.920 New England just completely takes away the run game. I mean, 1:01:41.000 --> 1:01:43.480 one of the best. You've mentioned, the best run defense 1:01:43.560 --> 1:01:46.200 in the National Football League, and they've got a good 1:01:46.280 --> 1:01:49.640 team and they're especially stout upfront. They find ways to 1:01:49.720 --> 1:01:53.760 thwart that run game. So if the offense is going 1:01:53.840 --> 1:01:55.520 to have to be quick, it's going to have to 1:01:55.560 --> 1:01:58.400 be efficient, and especially if Burrow plays, you don't want 1:01:58.440 --> 1:02:00.680 them holding onto the ball too long and just getting 1:02:00.680 --> 1:02:05.439 a macclimated NFL football again. So yeah, it's the way 1:02:05.560 --> 1:02:08.760 that they use extensions of the run game, whether that's 1:02:08.800 --> 1:02:12.800 through RPOs or screen passes or swinging it outside. 1:02:12.520 --> 1:02:13.320 Or anything like that. 1:02:14.000 --> 1:02:16.120 I think it's going to be important, and I would 1:02:16.120 --> 1:02:17.840 love to see Chase Brown get a little bit more 1:02:17.880 --> 1:02:20.040 involved in the past game. We saw some flashes of 1:02:20.120 --> 1:02:24.120 that last week against the Steelers and he had some 1:02:24.200 --> 1:02:26.760 big plays a big seventeen yard reception at one point. 1:02:26.880 --> 1:02:27.960 We know he can do that. 1:02:28.480 --> 1:02:30.680 I would like to see more of Chase Brown in 1:02:30.760 --> 1:02:32.760 the receiving game, especially, you know, if you're able to 1:02:32.840 --> 1:02:35.760 motion him out against the linebacker. I'm taking Chase Brown 1:02:35.920 --> 1:02:38.800 ninety five percent of the time, and I think that 1:02:38.960 --> 1:02:41.280 can be a quick option to get the ball out, 1:02:41.280 --> 1:02:42.320 whether it's Flacco. 1:02:42.160 --> 1:02:44.360 Or Burrow, Joe Burrow or not. I don't see how 1:02:44.400 --> 1:02:46.120 they they're able to knock off the Patriots. I mean, 1:02:46.160 --> 1:02:47.800 Patriots to do for a loss at nine to two, 1:02:47.920 --> 1:02:51.000 but dang they then you got Christin Gonzalez to contend 1:02:51.040 --> 1:02:53.920 with too on defense, So stop in the run and 1:02:54.240 --> 1:02:55.160 stopping number one. 1:02:56.320 --> 1:02:58.440 Yeah, I mean they're going to double team t Higgins 1:02:58.560 --> 1:03:00.560 and force the Bengals to beat him with that collection 1:03:00.640 --> 1:03:01.520 of characters that we just. 1:03:01.520 --> 1:03:03.520 Talked about a minute ago, and that's the right way 1:03:03.560 --> 1:03:03.880 to do it. 1:03:04.880 --> 1:03:07.720 I will say this though, over the course of their careers, 1:03:07.800 --> 1:03:10.000 Zach Taylor, for whatever reason, has had the number of 1:03:10.080 --> 1:03:10.680 Mike Rabel. 1:03:10.760 --> 1:03:12.240 You might remember when they. 1:03:12.200 --> 1:03:15.880 Were really bad in twenty twenty and Tennessee was really good. 1:03:15.960 --> 1:03:19.360 They came into pay Course Stadium with a rookie Joe Burrow, 1:03:19.440 --> 1:03:22.480 and the Bengals destroyed him and made easy work of them. 1:03:22.560 --> 1:03:25.360 You also remember the twenty twenty one playoff season when 1:03:25.400 --> 1:03:27.800 the Tennessee Titans were the number one seed and Mike 1:03:27.920 --> 1:03:30.120 Rabel the head coach there then as well, and the 1:03:30.160 --> 1:03:32.360 Bengals went in there to Tennessee and beat them. So 1:03:32.480 --> 1:03:35.480 there has been some history between Zach Taylor and Mike Rabel. 1:03:35.560 --> 1:03:36.480 Hopefully that continues. 1:03:36.520 --> 1:03:39.200 On the side out Austin Elmore and Tony Pike. Today 1:03:39.240 --> 1:03:41.400 at noon, it's a full slate of sports everything. I 1:03:41.440 --> 1:03:43.040 would normally say, hey, what do you got, but you 1:03:43.120 --> 1:03:49.440 got everything. It's literally everything today, high school football, soccer, basketball, football, 1:03:49.720 --> 1:03:52.520 I think there's some lacrosse in there. You got everything 1:03:52.560 --> 1:03:52.840 going on. 1:03:54.520 --> 1:03:56.240 Yeah, I'm off today, so I have no idea what 1:03:56.400 --> 1:03:58.520 Tony's got coming up at noon, but I'm sure it 1:03:58.560 --> 1:03:59.280 will be wonderful. 1:03:59.360 --> 1:04:01.520 Well, I just say there right now he is, by 1:04:01.560 --> 1:04:04.280 the way, embedded in the at pay Course Stadium waiting 1:04:04.320 --> 1:04:06.200 for the white or the black smoke to come up 1:04:06.840 --> 1:04:09.760 related to Joe Burrow will find out. Austin will break 1:04:09.800 --> 1:04:11.800 out when that breaks in here on the home of 1:04:11.840 --> 1:04:14.560 the best Bengals coverage seven hundred WW Cincinnati. 1:04:15.000 --> 1:04:18.560 You want to be an American weekend is here. 1:04:18.720 --> 1:04:21.560 It is a massive sports weekend in Cincinnati. He doesn't 1:04:21.600 --> 1:04:24.680 get any bigger than this. You have, of course, well, 1:04:24.760 --> 1:04:28.080 Joe Burrow, play or not play that debate. On Sunday, 1:04:28.160 --> 1:04:31.440 you have UC BYU feeling like for all the marbles 1:04:31.480 --> 1:04:34.360 with the national Fox broadcast in town at Nippert Stadium. 1:04:34.360 --> 1:04:37.880 We're gonna look good there. We've got UC and Inner 1:04:37.960 --> 1:04:41.440 Miami in the next round of the MLS playoffs at 1:04:41.480 --> 1:04:46.120 TQL Stadium, winner take All and tonight's you've got Elder 1:04:46.240 --> 1:04:49.880 Saint X. And it was interesting as a Bengal fan 1:04:49.960 --> 1:04:52.120 watching and watching this develop going well, they want to 1:04:52.160 --> 1:04:53.600 move it to pay Court, which made a lot of sense, 1:04:53.720 --> 1:04:54.920 you know, as a mason, ight to look at that. 1:04:55.000 --> 1:04:57.280 Go okay, it's a few thousand dollars hopefully. The Ohio 1:04:57.480 --> 1:05:00.520 State High School Athletic Association gives them gets a little 1:05:00.520 --> 1:05:02.800 bit of money back for their investment. But yeah, seven 1:05:02.840 --> 1:05:04.680 thousand tickets. The demand is high. I don't know how 1:05:04.720 --> 1:05:06.280 many they've sold at this point. I forgot to check, 1:05:06.360 --> 1:05:09.400 but certainly more than seven thousand, and they're going to 1:05:09.640 --> 1:05:12.720 pay court tonight. Okay, great, awesome. I was surprised how 1:05:12.760 --> 1:05:14.920 quickly this came together. But it picks up a bigger question, 1:05:15.040 --> 1:05:18.040 and that is didn't we, the taxpayers of Hamilton County 1:05:18.640 --> 1:05:20.920 pay for the stage? So why can't we use that 1:05:21.120 --> 1:05:21.720 more often? 1:05:21.880 --> 1:05:21.920 On? 1:05:22.080 --> 1:05:26.000 That is a representative state Rep. Adam Matthews who is 1:05:26.080 --> 1:05:28.680 in control and rules with an iron fist from Lebanon 1:05:28.920 --> 1:05:32.480 to South Lebanon to Mason. Adam Matthews, welcome back. How 1:05:32.520 --> 1:05:33.000 are you, brother? 1:05:34.560 --> 1:05:36.640 Always a pleasure to be here. Thank you so much 1:05:36.680 --> 1:05:37.240 for having me on. 1:05:37.440 --> 1:05:40.440 Thanks again. So let's jump into this. This is interesting 1:05:40.520 --> 1:05:43.320 what this happened. You probably heard about it, and do 1:05:43.360 --> 1:05:45.280 you have any affiliation with Sainte x or Elder You 1:05:45.360 --> 1:05:46.280 got skin in the game there. 1:05:47.760 --> 1:05:51.880 I did. Actually one of my core memories I was 1:05:52.360 --> 1:05:55.520 winning against Cole Raine in the playoffs just like this 1:05:56.400 --> 1:05:59.720 in two thousand and five. We went to overtime and 1:06:00.120 --> 1:06:03.200 Deep Coraine twelve to nine in Paul and then Paul 1:06:03.280 --> 1:06:06.280 Brown Stadium, and it was incredible. Yeah, that was on 1:06:06.360 --> 1:06:07.600 the way to a state championship. 1:06:07.920 --> 1:06:09.720 Let's face it, many of these young men, if some 1:06:09.880 --> 1:06:12.760 may go to play collegiately, for sure, NFL is a 1:06:12.800 --> 1:06:16.120 pipe dream. But then from most of the athletes out there, 1:06:16.160 --> 1:06:18.120 this will be a high point of their athletic career. 1:06:18.200 --> 1:06:20.680 But imagine, I mean, how awesome is that. Getting to 1:06:20.760 --> 1:06:23.880 play on an actual NFL turf has got to be 1:06:24.000 --> 1:06:26.280 and just you know, the locker rooms and everything, the 1:06:26.320 --> 1:06:28.800 whole experience is is going to be something to remember 1:06:28.840 --> 1:06:29.520 the rest of their lives. 1:06:31.280 --> 1:06:34.840 It's incredible and I'm so excited for these young gentlemen. 1:06:35.240 --> 1:06:39.560 Yeah, then you got involved legislatively the Bengals, and you 1:06:39.640 --> 1:06:41.840 know it's always in vogue to poke fun at the 1:06:41.840 --> 1:06:47.480 Bengals and question their motives and operations and maybe spendthrift 1:06:47.560 --> 1:06:50.560 ways in some cases. But you gotta also give congratulations 1:06:50.800 --> 1:06:53.560 to it. And it certainly isn't how quickly the franchise 1:06:53.720 --> 1:06:56.919 leaned into hosting this game, and typically the Bengals don't 1:06:56.960 --> 1:06:58.880 do anything quickly. They did this in like less than 1:06:58.880 --> 1:07:02.000 twenty four hours. And also with the county, and so 1:07:02.160 --> 1:07:04.640 credit certainly is due there, But what what do you 1:07:04.720 --> 1:07:05.800 want to do legislatively? 1:07:07.520 --> 1:07:09.360 Yeah, I will echo that. 1:07:09.680 --> 1:07:11.600 Thank you so much to the Bengals and the team. 1:07:11.680 --> 1:07:14.400 Thank you that those in the local county commission that 1:07:14.680 --> 1:07:19.440 made this happen as well. And this should be a 1:07:19.680 --> 1:07:21.640 model of what goes forward if we're going to have 1:07:21.800 --> 1:07:27.360 test payer step off and fund these very large investments 1:07:28.520 --> 1:07:31.560 you have up at the Browns, they had asked for 1:07:31.600 --> 1:07:35.480 one hundreds of millions of dollars, and even here in Mason, 1:07:35.920 --> 1:07:41.040 we've seen something similar of the Cincinnati Open had just 1:07:41.200 --> 1:07:44.840 been used for one week. It became a two week 1:07:44.920 --> 1:07:48.720 tournament and has been doing really well. But it's now 1:07:48.880 --> 1:07:52.440 also back in October host of the girl State Finals, 1:07:53.200 --> 1:07:55.640 and it's now open for more tournaments. It's going to 1:07:55.640 --> 1:07:58.680 be open to the community for a pro shop for 1:07:59.040 --> 1:08:02.720 the court, for the like that, and if. 1:08:02.600 --> 1:08:05.560 We're going to have these huge professional courts of the news. 1:08:06.240 --> 1:08:08.680 There should be a way for that to come at 1:08:09.440 --> 1:08:13.520 functional costs to the community for these types of venues. 1:08:14.320 --> 1:08:16.760 And we're looking at legislation on making sure that that 1:08:16.840 --> 1:08:19.679 can happen and be fair to the owners. You don't 1:08:19.680 --> 1:08:23.880 want to say it's a football situation, and you know 1:08:24.000 --> 1:08:27.679 wild card weekend lines up. Obviously, if somethingles are hosting, 1:08:28.000 --> 1:08:29.760 you can't have a high school game the night before. 1:08:29.880 --> 1:08:31.519 But if it works out that it's. 1:08:31.439 --> 1:08:32.559 Friday night, things are fine. 1:08:32.600 --> 1:08:35.679 You can have a game on Sunday. Wonderful. Let's let's 1:08:35.720 --> 1:08:39.440 have that happen. And we're going to work with the USSAA, 1:08:40.160 --> 1:08:43.560 work with the professional organizations and see what we can do. 1:08:44.280 --> 1:08:47.160 But you also have the contracts that are would this 1:08:47.720 --> 1:08:50.920 I don't know contract law. I'm not an attorney. How 1:08:50.960 --> 1:08:52.960 would that work? If you have a contract that says, hey, 1:08:53.000 --> 1:08:54.840 you can only have so many dates, whatever it might be, 1:08:55.520 --> 1:08:56.479 how does this override that? 1:08:58.880 --> 1:09:03.000 So we are a little making legislation that anything going forward. 1:09:03.040 --> 1:09:06.880 Anytime that they come with a handout asking for hey 1:09:06.960 --> 1:09:09.960 we need taxpayer or subsodies to build a new stadium 1:09:10.080 --> 1:09:13.080 or renovate a new stadium. If you're not using it 1:09:13.200 --> 1:09:18.679 for your professional purpose, there's other types of reasonable uses 1:09:18.720 --> 1:09:21.880 out to the community should be part of that conversation, and. 1:09:21.920 --> 1:09:24.400 It would be at market rate obviously, or whatever that 1:09:24.439 --> 1:09:27.240 looks like. Obviously, the Bengals aren't charging market rate for 1:09:27.320 --> 1:09:29.479 the standard because it's too high school enterprises. They could 1:09:29.520 --> 1:09:31.360 never afford that. So how do these how do you 1:09:31.840 --> 1:09:33.200 do you scale that legislatively? 1:09:33.280 --> 1:09:33.400 Then? 1:09:35.160 --> 1:09:37.240 Right, so we would look and see if there's a 1:09:37.280 --> 1:09:41.320 way to smooth it out over because I'm grateful to 1:09:41.400 --> 1:09:44.040 the Bengals. I think the tickets are fifteen dollars for 1:09:44.200 --> 1:09:47.760 tonight and to cover you know, there's still people working 1:09:47.800 --> 1:09:51.880 the gate, there's still people working confessions. It's more than 1:09:52.040 --> 1:09:54.400 just turning the locks off for the day and letting 1:09:54.439 --> 1:09:57.439 people come in. And so we need to make sure 1:09:57.520 --> 1:10:01.760 that things are balanced. And what we're going to. 1:10:01.760 --> 1:10:04.320 Start as a negotiation place is. 1:10:05.800 --> 1:10:08.679 They get not market rates for the use of the venue, 1:10:08.720 --> 1:10:11.160 but what it would have been had it been at 1:10:11.240 --> 1:10:13.880 Mason High School. And see can it be within twenty 1:10:13.920 --> 1:10:15.880 percent of what it would have been at Mason High School? 1:10:16.240 --> 1:10:19.240 And see if either the state subsidizes on the front 1:10:19.280 --> 1:10:21.360 end or if that's part of the consideration when we 1:10:22.720 --> 1:10:26.040 are deciding whether or not protect their dollars to go 1:10:26.200 --> 1:10:28.120 into the renovation or the expansion. 1:10:28.360 --> 1:10:31.800 Okay, got it. So this is just a professional stadiums, 1:10:32.280 --> 1:10:36.080 not not amateur stadium paid public amateur stadiums like the 1:10:36.120 --> 1:10:37.680 Cleveland Brown stadium. 1:10:38.720 --> 1:10:40.880 Correct, exactly like the Cleveland Brown Stadium. 1:10:40.880 --> 1:10:42.679 Big oh yeah, you don't have to fund the amateur 1:10:42.720 --> 1:10:45.519 teams up in Cleveland. So it's a different thing. And 1:10:45.640 --> 1:10:48.719 I'm trying to think there's a lot of stadium you think, okay, 1:10:48.800 --> 1:10:53.480 well Cincinnati, Columbus, Cleveland, but you know Dayton, Toledo, Youngstown 1:10:53.560 --> 1:10:55.960 they have. I don't know how much public money are 1:10:56.080 --> 1:10:59.880 those facilities, but that's a lot, right. 1:11:00.240 --> 1:11:02.200 There's there's conversations all over there. 1:11:03.880 --> 1:11:05.040 I know of. 1:11:06.120 --> 1:11:08.479 I think right across the border in Butler County they're 1:11:08.520 --> 1:11:13.320 looking at a semi professional or image or minor league 1:11:13.439 --> 1:11:15.080 hockey facility. 1:11:15.120 --> 1:11:17.000 That would be great for the community as well. 1:11:17.240 --> 1:11:20.800 So anything that we can do to build those types 1:11:20.840 --> 1:11:24.280 of Friday night lights or those types of touch points 1:11:24.320 --> 1:11:28.120 for the community to come rather than just the using 1:11:28.200 --> 1:11:32.519 tax pay dollars for stadiums where the cheap seats are 1:11:32.960 --> 1:11:35.200 over one hundred some dollars, seems like, you. 1:11:35.200 --> 1:11:36.840 Know, it'd have to be a big rivalry game. But 1:11:36.960 --> 1:11:39.320 getting with all the leagues in Cincinnati, you sell everything 1:11:39.360 --> 1:11:42.880 else is to line up a marquee game every Friday 1:11:42.920 --> 1:11:45.640 where the Bengals aren't playing and do that, and do 1:11:45.720 --> 1:11:47.160 it on the regular. I think that'd be amazing. 1:11:48.920 --> 1:11:51.479 It would be really neat. And you see both the 1:11:51.520 --> 1:11:55.559 teams playing tonight, youse. The ticket sold out in forty 1:11:55.600 --> 1:11:58.640 two minutes while the kids were still in class. And 1:11:59.360 --> 1:12:03.840 there are two all boys school and each Friday they 1:12:03.920 --> 1:12:07.240 sell out their ten thousand stadium. You knew that this 1:12:07.439 --> 1:12:08.240 was gonna be something big. 1:12:09.840 --> 1:12:12.240 Yeah, and I you know, the social opportunity you could 1:12:12.280 --> 1:12:14.240 get at a Friday night passed me. I'll be a 1:12:14.439 --> 1:12:16.120 season ticket holder if you wanted to and see all 1:12:16.120 --> 1:12:18.160 the high school games. I'm sure that would appeal to 1:12:18.240 --> 1:12:20.200 some folks. Yeah, the side of this thing is the 1:12:20.360 --> 1:12:23.479 money factor, because money's always a concerned representative. Adam Matthews. 1:12:24.479 --> 1:12:26.559 You know some of these you may not get twenty 1:12:26.600 --> 1:12:29.360 thousand there like we're going to get tonight. But if 1:12:29.360 --> 1:12:31.560 you got ten thous is that enough to offset the 1:12:31.600 --> 1:12:34.240 costs of keeping the lights on and keeping the stadium open? 1:12:34.320 --> 1:12:37.040 And if not, isn't that back on the taxpairs? Does 1:12:37.040 --> 1:12:37.519 that make sense? 1:12:39.600 --> 1:12:39.760 Right? 1:12:39.840 --> 1:12:41.439 So you'd have to look at that balance to make 1:12:41.479 --> 1:12:46.000 sure that the the money makes sense, because not just 1:12:46.080 --> 1:12:46.960 the lights on, make. 1:12:46.920 --> 1:12:48.799 Sure that the harm of the field, make sure. 1:12:48.680 --> 1:12:51.880 That the workers are there, and it will have to 1:12:51.960 --> 1:12:52.519 make some kind. 1:12:52.400 --> 1:12:55.439 Of balance, which is why we're work on this legislation 1:12:55.640 --> 1:12:59.200 with like say say with the pro stadiums and with 1:12:59.360 --> 1:13:00.880 the professional owners. 1:13:01.600 --> 1:13:03.360 Yeah, there's got to be a balance. Theres like you know, 1:13:03.600 --> 1:13:06.320 a couple of Division three schools or schools where you're 1:13:06.320 --> 1:13:08.720 not going to get that much attendance. You know, it 1:13:08.760 --> 1:13:10.400 doesn't make sense to have it at pay Corps or 1:13:10.439 --> 1:13:12.519 something like that just to give kids the experiencing and 1:13:12.640 --> 1:13:15.880 that's a substantial cost to the already overburdened taxpayers of 1:13:15.880 --> 1:13:17.599 Hamilton County. We don't want to go down that road. 1:13:19.000 --> 1:13:20.400 Correct Tonight should. 1:13:20.200 --> 1:13:20.519 Pay for it. 1:13:21.000 --> 1:13:22.719 I would think it should be a ten dollars parking. 1:13:22.720 --> 1:13:24.840 I don't know what tickets are, but ticket sales are 1:13:25.000 --> 1:13:27.519 awesome despite the weather that's going to be extremely bad. 1:13:27.600 --> 1:13:29.400 But I don't think kids care. But I think you know, 1:13:29.439 --> 1:13:32.280 if you're getting to play at pay Corps and your 1:13:32.360 --> 1:13:35.360 kids out there, or you know relative saying I mean 1:13:35.520 --> 1:13:37.120 just a fan of the school. I know a lot 1:13:37.200 --> 1:13:39.120 of elder and ste x grads are going to go 1:13:39.160 --> 1:13:41.479 tonight just because it's pay Corps, Brian Colmbs being one 1:13:41.520 --> 1:13:44.439 of them. So that'd be kind of fun. What's the 1:13:44.479 --> 1:13:45.479 timeline for getting this done. 1:13:48.080 --> 1:13:50.880 We just went to a marathon session till you finish 1:13:50.960 --> 1:13:54.840 out the House voting for twenty twenty five, so we 1:13:54.920 --> 1:13:59.439 will be back with legislation in January February to get 1:13:59.479 --> 1:14:00.920 this really working. 1:14:01.240 --> 1:14:04.479 Okay, good, that's awesome. Yeah, taking some time off after 1:14:04.880 --> 1:14:06.640 I don't know what just the what the hell just 1:14:06.720 --> 1:14:08.920 happened with the CBD thing. I mean I followed closely, 1:14:09.000 --> 1:14:11.040 more closer than anyone, and I still don't understand all 1:14:11.080 --> 1:14:16.320 the imaginations and levers and trip wires and everything else 1:14:16.320 --> 1:14:18.439 that was set up, and why how this thing got 1:14:18.520 --> 1:14:20.360 so sideways in such a short period of time when 1:14:20.360 --> 1:14:23.639 it's coming to when it comes to CBD, SASH, THHC 1:14:23.760 --> 1:14:25.800 and fuse beverages, it seems to me, like I don't 1:14:25.840 --> 1:14:28.240 there's not much differen between THHD and alcohol because you're 1:14:28.320 --> 1:14:30.519 drinking it for an effect. I don't know why we 1:14:30.680 --> 1:14:33.080 have to get rid of one, especially as populaters. Is 1:14:33.160 --> 1:14:35.639 that seems to be really anti business, anti small business 1:14:35.720 --> 1:14:37.839 to me, and also anti choice. 1:14:40.439 --> 1:14:44.400 And part of this the confusion, and you said you're 1:14:44.400 --> 1:14:48.200 afraid that by going sideways all at once was we 1:14:48.320 --> 1:14:52.720 had had through the House, something that would allow your 1:14:52.760 --> 1:14:56.360 five milligrams to milligram drinks, whether it's at Ryan Geist 1:14:56.439 --> 1:14:59.960 or fifty West or elsewhere, to be bought on side 1:15:00.720 --> 1:15:01.760 and take it home. 1:15:02.479 --> 1:15:07.799 And while it goes through the House conversations. 1:15:07.200 --> 1:15:10.599 Over to the Senate. The Senate conversations, the federal government 1:15:10.840 --> 1:15:14.960 made some changes that made a thase out over the 1:15:15.000 --> 1:15:18.720 next year to get rid of these and so what 1:15:18.880 --> 1:15:22.560 we had to do in the Ohio state houses we 1:15:22.680 --> 1:15:25.360 can't go much further than the FED two. And so 1:15:25.520 --> 1:15:28.240 that is what the final product is is matching what 1:15:28.439 --> 1:15:29.599 the federal government. 1:15:29.680 --> 1:15:31.600 Yeah, yeah, the FED, the FED forcing your hands on 1:15:31.720 --> 1:15:34.080 that because federal law. But but at the same time, 1:15:34.120 --> 1:15:36.320 I just the there was no impetus for this and 1:15:36.520 --> 1:15:39.640 the you know, the idea of y you're I know, 1:15:39.720 --> 1:15:42.400 you're around them, but like Nancy Pelosi and you know, well, 1:15:42.439 --> 1:15:44.120 we got to pass the bill to see what's in it. 1:15:44.240 --> 1:15:47.360 It's it's more the same. As much as we talk 1:15:47.439 --> 1:15:50.080 as conservatives talk about changing the government, that seems to 1:15:50.160 --> 1:15:52.240 be the same thing that hey, we snuck this in 1:15:52.320 --> 1:15:54.000 here at the last minute. Trump signed it in the law, 1:15:54.040 --> 1:15:56.040 and of wait, what do we do? We just eliminated 1:15:56.080 --> 1:15:59.400 it hit industry. That's literally saving the craft beer people 1:16:00.120 --> 1:16:02.920 in Ohio because fewer people drinking craft beer, more drinking 1:16:02.960 --> 1:16:05.880 the THCH Beverage's clear there's consumer demand for it. I 1:16:05.920 --> 1:16:08.599 don't think the public risk is any greater than alcohol, 1:16:09.520 --> 1:16:14.040 and clearly many Ohioans, Kentucky Indianas want the THC and 1:16:14.080 --> 1:16:16.960 fused beverages the way they are. Do you think there's 1:16:16.960 --> 1:16:19.200 hope in the next year that maybe would come up 1:16:19.200 --> 1:16:22.080 with a better a better way to do this from 1:16:22.080 --> 1:16:22.720 the federal level. 1:16:24.520 --> 1:16:26.520 I think that there needs to be some transparency. 1:16:26.600 --> 1:16:29.920 I know that you as you mentioned, this was part 1:16:29.960 --> 1:16:33.880 of a long late night negotiation on the federal government 1:16:33.960 --> 1:16:37.280 to get it back open after the Democrats were not 1:16:37.360 --> 1:16:40.599 coming to the table in the Senate and the government 1:16:40.720 --> 1:16:43.280 the government needed to turn back on. So yeah, they 1:16:43.439 --> 1:16:48.200 figured in at the last minute. And uh, but as 1:16:48.320 --> 1:16:52.080 things continue, and as you hear from the constituents. 1:16:51.560 --> 1:16:54.200 Like you or like others, I do. 1:16:54.280 --> 1:16:56.280 Think that the federal government is probably going to revisit this. 1:16:57.120 --> 1:16:58.799 I would hope. So they're going to have to final 1:16:58.840 --> 1:17:00.880 point something else. You just got through and I wanted 1:17:00.920 --> 1:17:02.519 to circle back around, and I don't know much about. 1:17:02.520 --> 1:17:05.480 It's called the Patient Protection Act, and this is your legislation. 1:17:06.240 --> 1:17:09.160 It targets high risk medications, and that is drugs defined 1:17:09.160 --> 1:17:11.240 with at least a five percent chance of severe ad 1:17:11.280 --> 1:17:14.160 verse side effects that could lead to death or infection 1:17:14.360 --> 1:17:17.080 or and this has to do with mail order drugs. Well, 1:17:17.120 --> 1:17:20.160 why this what's this? Is this legislation about abortion pills 1:17:20.200 --> 1:17:24.200 basically or no, This medication. 1:17:23.880 --> 1:17:27.000 Is about any type of medication where like you said 1:17:27.160 --> 1:17:31.720 five percent, and we saw the terrible story out of 1:17:31.960 --> 1:17:40.000 Washington State where a college student was getting antidepressive medications telehealth, no, 1:17:40.880 --> 1:17:43.960 no doctor oversight other than their telehealth, so they never 1:17:44.080 --> 1:17:47.720 got checked on. When he complained to the organization that 1:17:47.880 --> 1:17:50.800 was prescribing these drugs, they're like, well, we'll just up 1:17:50.880 --> 1:17:57.040 your dosage. And eventually he died by suicide and now 1:17:57.120 --> 1:18:00.519 there's a wrongful death claim. In all of this, we 1:18:00.640 --> 1:18:04.360 have seen similar things. We just are we're not even 1:18:04.479 --> 1:18:07.519 through picking up the pieces from the opiate epidemic, which 1:18:07.840 --> 1:18:14.200 was similar. We've had other medications and some opponents are 1:18:14.400 --> 1:18:18.200 focusing on abortion pills, and there are some studies along this, 1:18:18.800 --> 1:18:20.760 but any type of medication, we want to have a 1:18:20.840 --> 1:18:24.719 standard of care that if you're playing a board game. 1:18:24.600 --> 1:18:28.280 And you roll the dice, and if you're rolling the 1:18:28.320 --> 1:18:29.280 dice and you roll. 1:18:29.160 --> 1:18:32.200 A three, and that means you're going to have organ failure, 1:18:33.120 --> 1:18:36.640 sepsist or sent to the hospital with timoor jing or infections. 1:18:37.080 --> 1:18:40.519 That's pretty high odds. And this isn't banning any medication. 1:18:40.760 --> 1:18:44.840 It just says, before you get something that is one 1:18:44.920 --> 1:18:47.720 out of twenty sending me to the hospital, you just 1:18:47.800 --> 1:18:49.360 need to see a doctor before and then have a 1:18:49.439 --> 1:18:50.120 doctor check. 1:18:50.000 --> 1:18:50.719 On you afterwards. 1:18:52.800 --> 1:18:54.360 Yeah, okay, I see what you're saying there. But you know, 1:18:54.479 --> 1:18:57.960 the claim though, is what a five percent mortality rate? 1:18:58.120 --> 1:18:59.920 That there aren't any drugs that have a five percent 1:19:00.160 --> 1:19:04.080 mortality right that would that would never get through through trials. 1:19:06.280 --> 1:19:10.320 Uh, there there have been, and sometimes we are. 1:19:10.640 --> 1:19:15.240 We see this afterwards where uh, when you have an 1:19:15.320 --> 1:19:16.640 FDA trial, it. 1:19:16.760 --> 1:19:21.200 Is where you have people taking the medication. 1:19:20.960 --> 1:19:26.479 Clinically according to every single rule versus how people actually 1:19:26.520 --> 1:19:30.160 are using it, right, and then that that difference can 1:19:30.320 --> 1:19:32.559 get to have this type of danger. 1:19:32.760 --> 1:19:34.400 Well you can, I mean, you know, ope, it's a 1:19:34.439 --> 1:19:36.560 great example of that. You can become addicted and and 1:19:36.760 --> 1:19:38.920 we've cracked on that and obviously, But I mean the 1:19:39.000 --> 1:19:41.080 thing if you're talking about this is somehow a product 1:19:41.160 --> 1:19:43.840 liability thing. Oh hi, we already have malpractice laws and 1:19:43.920 --> 1:19:47.640 state boards and FDA oversight and all that stuff, and 1:19:47.720 --> 1:19:50.360 of course litigation as well. Doesn't that balance things out? 1:19:52.360 --> 1:19:56.040 So medic so you have both on the front and 1:19:56.160 --> 1:19:58.800 the backside. Just in medication, you do things that are 1:19:59.520 --> 1:20:03.960 uh that help you and then stick some problem afterwards. 1:20:04.760 --> 1:20:06.880 This is the standard of care to make sure that 1:20:06.880 --> 1:20:09.400 you're getting good care on the front end. Malpractice is 1:20:09.520 --> 1:20:11.160 only after things have already gone bad. 1:20:11.400 --> 1:20:14.240 Okay, So we are making sure that both you have 1:20:14.439 --> 1:20:15.479 a good dinnertive care. 1:20:15.520 --> 1:20:18.320 We are both during the relationships between the patient and 1:20:18.400 --> 1:20:23.400 the doctor. And then yeah, as you mentioned malpractice as 1:20:23.640 --> 1:20:26.439 if things go wrong, but we're trying to avoid those 1:20:26.479 --> 1:20:29.880 things so wrong because sometimes that money will not fix 1:20:30.320 --> 1:20:31.760 Oregon failure or death. 1:20:32.000 --> 1:20:32.320 Gotcha? 1:20:32.360 --> 1:20:32.599 Okay? 1:20:34.120 --> 1:20:36.479 A big question of course. Rocky boyman texting me wants 1:20:36.479 --> 1:20:38.120 to know if we can still get his ed medicine 1:20:38.479 --> 1:20:44.280 uh in a brown bag delivered to his house. So 1:20:47.560 --> 1:20:52.320 is that in jeopardy? Okay? Adam Matthews State Representative, always 1:20:52.360 --> 1:20:55.200 loved the town, always love us, spending time chatty, Thanks 1:20:55.240 --> 1:20:57.600 again and good luck with the we'll call it the 1:20:57.880 --> 1:21:03.479 Elder Saint x Ledge.

And not even in that order. It's probably 1:22:52.360 --> 1:22:56.080 food and then football sometimes, but food football family, that's 1:22:56.080 --> 1:22:56.360 the order. 1:22:56.439 --> 1:22:57.840 And are you doing most of the cookie? 1:22:57.960 --> 1:22:59.799 I am doing all the cookie?

Yes, Oh, there's absolutely delegate right. 1:23:25.760 --> 1:23:28.360 It starts above that mes plaus is number one, Yes, 1:23:28.600 --> 1:23:31.000 which means you like, you cut off, you prep all 1:23:31.000 --> 1:23:32.920 your food, you clean it.

You have it all laid out before you. 1:23:40.240 --> 1:23:42.880 And then as you cook, you clean clean as you go. 1:23:43.200 --> 1:23:45.200 Oh and there's a step before even the first step 1:23:45.240 --> 1:23:47.760 that you said, and that is go grocery shopping a 1:23:47.840 --> 1:23:48.479 week before. 1:23:48.960 --> 1:23:54.479 Do not wait four hours between that. But yeah, you 1:23:54.560 --> 1:23:56.679 got to get a little window there. You got a window. 1:23:56.760 --> 1:23:58.800 You got a window, and then know the ovens know 1:23:58.880 --> 1:23:59.600 what you're working with. 1:23:59.760 --> 1:24:01.760 Yeah, yeah, I get your tools, get it right, make 1:24:01.760 --> 1:24:02.639 sure your knights are sharp. 1:24:02.800 --> 1:24:03.080 Okay. 1:24:03.120 --> 1:24:06.040 So the fact that you are the one who's cooking 1:24:06.280 --> 1:24:09.240 and you're saying that Thanksgiving is your favorite holiday, you're 1:24:09.240 --> 1:24:09.720 allowed to say. 1:24:09.760 --> 1:24:11.040 You're allowed to say that, I love it. 1:24:11.120 --> 1:24:11.439 I love that. 1:24:11.640 --> 1:24:14.120 And then Christmas is I love Christmas. I'm a big 1:24:14.200 --> 1:24:16.040 Christmas guy. But I think that you don't have to 1:24:16.080 --> 1:24:18.680 worry about gifts and all these pretexts. Right, it's just 1:24:18.800 --> 1:24:20.479 like you show up, you eat, you pass out, you 1:24:20.520 --> 1:24:21.120 watch football. 1:24:21.160 --> 1:24:23.840 That's awesome, okay, but I feel like you and your family, 1:24:23.920 --> 1:24:25.600 you're at the age now are you still giving a 1:24:25.640 --> 1:24:26.360 whole lot of gifts? 1:24:26.479 --> 1:24:29.519 Not to every family is no, no, no, no, no, 1:24:29.640 --> 1:24:31.519 no no. Because the kids get older. It's like, here's 1:24:31.520 --> 1:24:32.320 a gift card, shut up. 1:24:32.439 --> 1:24:33.160 Yeah, And I love it. 1:24:33.600 --> 1:24:35.880 And I give my mom so much credit. Even for 1:24:35.960 --> 1:24:38.240 my birthday. She's like, I want to physically send you something, 1:24:38.280 --> 1:24:40.639 and I'm like, I love this. But at the same time, 1:24:40.680 --> 1:24:42.680 I don't just send me the gift card. But she 1:24:42.720 --> 1:24:44.320 doesn't want to send the gift card because she wants 1:24:44.360 --> 1:24:47.400 something sentimental. But I understand, I understand. 1:24:47.400 --> 1:24:51.160 I guess I'm not a sentimental card anyway. You talking 1:24:51.240 --> 1:24:53.080 about this because I know you're champion at the bit 1:24:53.280 --> 1:24:55.280 to talk about our idea. 1:24:55.640 --> 1:24:59.080 This is we are taking credit for this. We are 1:24:59.120 --> 1:24:59.960 one thousand percent. 1:25:00.040 --> 1:25:02.720 It just goes back probably three years we have. 1:25:02.760 --> 1:25:06.240 Been talking about First it started with ice cream and 1:25:06.320 --> 1:25:06.920 guess what happened? 1:25:06.920 --> 1:25:07.760 And you know what we're talking about. 1:25:07.760 --> 1:25:12.000 We're talking about Skyline collaborating with Graters and then next thing, 1:25:12.040 --> 1:25:14.760 you know what happens, The ice cream appears, and then 1:25:14.960 --> 1:25:16.000 we continue to joke. 1:25:16.160 --> 1:25:18.720 How funny would it be, haha if there was a 1:25:18.800 --> 1:25:20.400 beer and guess what's happening? 1:25:20.680 --> 1:25:25.800 Boom boom b Braxton Beer and Skyline are collaborating. Whether 1:25:25.960 --> 1:25:28.240 this is true or not, this is a conspiracy theory, 1:25:28.400 --> 1:25:30.960 I'm gonna say that. We're coming up with these ideas. 1:25:31.000 --> 1:25:32.360 So now we got to come up with the next one. 1:25:32.360 --> 1:25:33.120 I don't know what it is. 1:25:33.439 --> 1:25:34.240 We'll figure it out. 1:25:34.400 --> 1:25:40.000 Yet all works out. I mean you think about like, okay, 1:25:40.040 --> 1:25:42.920 with a little chili, spice and cinnamon, It's like you 1:25:43.000 --> 1:25:45.360 could totally do that in a beer. I think holiday 1:25:45.400 --> 1:25:46.479 It's perfect for the holidays. 1:25:46.600 --> 1:25:49.280 And the best part is so Braxton every year.
