Speaker 1: This is off season Dodger Talk. Get in on the
Speaker 1: show by calling eight six six hashtag Dodger Talk and
Speaker 1: now your host, David Massey, Welcome to Dodger Talk, a
Speaker 1: very special edition. We are on the road, a one
Speaker 1: man band, as they like to say, and we are
Speaker 1: in parts unknown in central California, live from a cottage
Speaker 1: that Brad Paisley owns, and somehow, some way I am
Speaker 1: here with Brad and we are live on Instagram Live
Speaker 1: and five seventy LA Sports Edition. Brad, Happy New Year
Speaker 1: and thank you for inviting me over.
Speaker 2: Happy New Year, David. So, this feels like we're up
Speaker 2: to a pretty good start with the acquisitions and everything else,
Speaker 2: doesn't it.
Speaker 1: Yes, something before we get to that, did you really
Speaker 1: believe I would accept your offer to have Dodger Talk
Speaker 1: from your place out here?
Speaker 2: Definitely? I thought there's probably no way and keep you away.
Speaker 1: Well, it feels like you're you have some level of
Speaker 1: regret that I accepted.
Speaker 2: I definitely have regretted it ever since you walked it.
Speaker 2: You But we'll see, maybe it goes well.
Speaker 1: I'll be surprised, Okay, will you be? Are you as
Speaker 1: surprised that I showed up? As you were that the
Speaker 1: Dodgers were able to pull off the signing for Kyle Tucker.
Speaker 2: I was really surprised by that. I was not at
Speaker 2: all surprised that you were able to come up here.
Speaker 2: I think you probably cleared your schedule on that. But no,
Speaker 2: it's like the uh.
Speaker 1: I drove from El Segundo.
Speaker 2: Oh really? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I was at the Sports Net LA studios.
Speaker 2: And what were you doing down there?
Speaker 1: You were just I taped episode of Access Sportsnet Dodgers.
Speaker 2: What can we look forward to in that up?
Speaker 1: It already aired? Oh, it aired an hour ago.
Speaker 2: And then I taped it. Yeah, I literally have sports Net.
Speaker 2: Any new program that that airs about the Dodgers on Sportsnet,
Speaker 2: it goes right in the DVR.
Speaker 1: Well, okay, we talked about Kyle Tucker's lineup spot, which
Speaker 1: you and I will get into later. But you saw
Speaker 1: Andrew Friedman at your concert for Alta Dina. Yeah, maybe
Speaker 1: a week before Tucker signed.
Speaker 2: So he he lives not too far away from where
Speaker 2: the fires were the worst over there, and and so
Speaker 2: he came to hang out at the concert. It was
Speaker 2: great to have him and Robin and and the guys
Speaker 2: and Dawes were psyched to to get to meet Andrew
Speaker 2: as well. And it was so funny because I watched
Speaker 2: Griff the drummer from Dawes, just start to grill him
Speaker 2: on whose back, who's not And the first thing he
Speaker 2: said to him was was tell me you kept Rotvett
Speaker 2: And he's like, no, we messed whatever.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but no mention of Kyle Tucker a
Speaker 1: week before they signed Tucker, No interesting, any hint that
Speaker 1: he had something on his mind.
Speaker 2: He definitely always looks like he's got something on his mind.
Speaker 2: So I was truly shocked by that, But I also
Speaker 2: didn't pry too much. I kind of want to, you know,
Speaker 2: I give him a little bit of space when it
Speaker 2: comes to that stuff. It's like, I definitely throw in
Speaker 2: if I have a chance to throw my two cents in,
Speaker 2: I do, just like the rest of you listening. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: But at the same time, who am I to say
Speaker 2: anything to the greatest executive in.
Speaker 1: All of sports, Andrew Friedman? Hard to argue, hard to.
Speaker 2: Argue, really believe that. I mean, we're talking about somebody
Speaker 2: that has built a dynasty here that is, and I
Speaker 2: say dynasty, and everybody's like the verdicts out of a dynasty.
Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? There's no verdict out. Yeah, it's
Speaker 2: a dynasty, don't you think.
Speaker 1: I feel like the dynasty even started before twenty twenty.
Speaker 2: Twenty seventeen should have been a winning World Series in
Speaker 2: my opinion, And so if you were to think of
Speaker 2: it that way, it's like, here's twenty seventeen, we go
Speaker 2: back in twenty eighteen. We didn't win that, but that's
Speaker 2: okay now that we think about it. We went in
Speaker 2: twenty twenty, you know, and then you went twenty four
Speaker 2: and twenty five, and we have a really good chance
Speaker 2: at this year. It's obviously still.
Speaker 1: Got to be played.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's the kind of stuff that teams dream of.
Speaker 2: As a lifelong Cleveland Browns fan. Oh gosh, you know
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. Yes, no, it's I have no idea.
Speaker 2: This is the first time I've had this feeling as
Speaker 2: a sports fan.
Speaker 1: Well, you've been a Dodger fan for over twenty five years,
Speaker 1: so you have seen the O'Malley sell to Fox Fox,
Speaker 1: then sell to Frank McCourt. It was only fifteen years ago, yeah,
Speaker 1: that the Dodgers were not what the Dodgers are right now.
Speaker 1: And I feel like we have forgotten that pretty quickly.
Speaker 2: I read this great article about the TV deal, the
Speaker 2: TV rights deal that allowed a lot of this to happen.
Speaker 2: I think, although I don't know how much of it
Speaker 2: was accurate, but but if the McCourt deal did anything
Speaker 2: for us, it's set that up. You know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the TV deal is a big deal, not as
Speaker 1: big as the radio deal.
Speaker 2: Right. Well, you know, along with the radio deal, they
Speaker 2: wound up with a couple of guys that, in my opinion,
Speaker 2: are sort of, you know, a little bit of dead weight.
Speaker 1: I agree, I agree.
Speaker 2: Well, I think we're doubt we're talking about the same ones.
Speaker 1: But it's fine, Yeah, yeah, it's fine. Well just it
Speaker 1: doesn't need to be said.
Speaker 2: No, no, but no, it's but that deal and all
Speaker 2: of the you know, I don't really understand all of that,
Speaker 2: the kind of ins and outs of sports ownership or
Speaker 2: any of that, but the idea of the smart way
Speaker 2: that this front office has gone out. And look, so
Speaker 2: many of the players that we've grown to know and love.
Speaker 2: You had you had Chris Taylor on a few days ago,
Speaker 2: you know, Joe Kelly, these guys they were you know,
Speaker 2: I guess Joe Kelly was expected, he was already Joe Kelly.
Speaker 2: But but guys like Chris Taylor and MUNKSI and these
Speaker 2: guys that, yeah, and you know, and then bringing up
Speaker 2: Bellinger and Seeger and these guys we have built like
Speaker 2: that's part of the dynasty. You know, a few of
Speaker 2: those guys aren't with us anymore, but they led to
Speaker 2: this dynasty and it just shows you that, I don't know,
Speaker 2: there's some there's some voodoo magic this front off sense.
Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought up those guys, Seeger, Bellinger, justin Turner,
Speaker 1: Chris Taylor because obviously Andrew Friedman has Turner.
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, that is a key.
Speaker 1: That's your guy. How could you forget?
Speaker 2: And I love him even though he is on a
Speaker 2: beach somewhere and refusing to call in right now. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but it's like it really, it really is a special group.
Speaker 1: I talked to Farahan during the World Series and a
Speaker 1: few other people around the organization that's been here since
Speaker 1: Andrew took over from Neck Coletti, and we all agree
Speaker 1: that there are different chapters to this, to this run
Speaker 1: that started in twenty fifteen, and I'm glad, I'm glad
Speaker 1: that that you brought up those guys because it still
Speaker 1: feels like we all still have an emotional attachment to
Speaker 1: those twenty seventeen Dodgers, to the guys that were still
Speaker 1: there in twenty twenty. Yeah, that was a special group
Speaker 1: of players.
Speaker 2: I've got a twenty seventeen World Series sweatshirt that says
Speaker 2: twenty you know, Dodgers, twenty seventeen World Series and then
Speaker 2: I wrote in white paint champions Nice.
Speaker 1: I like that, And my dream is to have a
Speaker 1: reunion of those guys in Vegas one day.
Speaker 2: Let's do that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to have those guys back because they
Speaker 1: Brandon Morrow, he pitched in every single game of that
Speaker 1: World Series.
Speaker 2: That he was really something.
Speaker 1: Some of the unsung heroes like Kent to my Ada
Speaker 1: as well, those guys Hill, Yeah, yeah, Rich Hill. I
Speaker 1: mean for a lot of guys, Chase Utley, Andre Ethier,
Speaker 1: Rich Hill, that was their last chance at winning a
Speaker 1: World Series.
Speaker 2: It really was now that you think about it wasn't it.
Speaker 1: And the Astros completely changed that. But can we not
Speaker 1: talk about that. Let's switch gears here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to talk about that.
Speaker 1: And phone lines are open eight six six nine seven
Speaker 1: two five seventy. If you have a baseball related question
Speaker 1: for Brad Paisley, he is up to the test or
Speaker 1: for trust me, David, and I'll allow you to hang
Speaker 1: up on somebody if you don't like.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to be a jerk the way you
Speaker 2: are to these poor people that call in and they
Speaker 2: have to hear your you rate their opinions.
Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you what I told Fernando Vealezuela,
Speaker 1: the late great Fernando. Eventually, I will always hang up
Speaker 1: on you because the call cannot go on forever.
Speaker 2: That's really a good point.
Speaker 1: So that's the way I look at it. Sometimes you
Speaker 1: get hung up on a little quicker. Other times you
Speaker 1: get a little bit of a leash. Okay, all right,
Speaker 1: h Kyle Tucker, We've talked about this. We talked about
Speaker 1: it on sportsnet LA. Dave Roberts at the press conference
Speaker 1: said he is going to hit Tucker second or third
Speaker 1: in the Dodger lineup. I'm a believer Tucker's hitting second
Speaker 1: because he can handle lefties and you need somebody to
Speaker 1: protect Otani. How would you write out the Dodger lineup
Speaker 1: by the way, first class problems?
Speaker 2: No kidding, Yeah, it's like it had. Had Pa has
Speaker 2: made the All Star team last year, you might have
Speaker 2: an entire All Star. Yeah right, yeah, Tommy edn't have
Speaker 2: never been an All Star.
Speaker 1: I don't think so. But a Gold Glove winner close enough. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I agree, I think you will be. I agree that.
Speaker 2: So, boy, I say.
Speaker 1: Give the first five. With the first five, we'll watch.
Speaker 2: The phone lines light up. Yeah, I say all these
Speaker 2: I think. I mean, if if you're going to stick
Speaker 2: with Otani first, which part of me still wonders, how
Speaker 2: many runs he drives in a little later, you know,
Speaker 2: the second or third himself.
Speaker 1: That's a fair question that other people believe should have happened,
Speaker 1: even on the days that he's pitching. Don't lead off
Speaker 1: hits second or third, and you got more guys on
Speaker 1: base to drive in.
Speaker 2: So I would say it's either Otani, Tocker, BET's Freeman.
Speaker 1: Bets sitting third, Freddy cleanup, Taoscar Wait, Mante.
Speaker 2: You didn't, you're so you took this over already you already.
Speaker 1: I'm just laying it out. I'm laying it out. Think
Speaker 1: about it like we're on the Peacock Network. ABC. They
Speaker 1: got the lineup right next to your face. Here we go,
Speaker 1: we got Otani, Tucker Betts, who's sitting clean up?
Speaker 2: I guess Freeman Freddie hitting those two lefties. But but
Speaker 2: Tucker's got reverse splits.
Speaker 1: Yes, he can hit handle lefties. And then it's Will
Speaker 1: Smith hitting fifth behind Freddy's. And then do you have
Speaker 1: Mounsey hitting sixth?
Speaker 2: You could? I mean it depends like if you're facing
Speaker 2: a lefty heavy team.
Speaker 1: Let's say this is a right handed starter on the mound. Okay,
Speaker 1: Logan Webb of the Giants facing the Dodgers.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, absolutely, So then it's Smith, uh, and then
Speaker 2: after Smith, you go to Munsey, and then you go
Speaker 2: to Tao, and then you go to who. By the way,
Speaker 2: I'm with you. I think he's gonna have big time, recurrent,
Speaker 2: big year. Yeah, he's coming back.
Speaker 1: He's in the lab.
Speaker 2: This will be one of the one of the possible
Speaker 2: comeback players. H So Teo Pa has and then you
Speaker 2: put Edmund ninth because I feel like Edmund is the
Speaker 2: type of guy that leads almost as a leadoff hitter
Speaker 2: if you want him to be in some ways, but
Speaker 2: putting him ninth gives him one lesson bat, which is okay,
Speaker 2: he's going to be asked to do a lot this year.
Speaker 1: I bet well the ninth spot now is essentially a
Speaker 1: second leadoffs that's what I think. Gavin Lux was so
Speaker 1: good at it.
Speaker 2: Yeah twenty four yep, and Tommy can be that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Miguel Rojas could be that.
Speaker 2: Miguel will be in there probably for a while. Yeah,
Speaker 2: off and on, and that guy what a hero and
Speaker 2: legend and I'm so happy for him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a guy that basically could have packed it in,
Speaker 1: did not start a game until Game six of the
Speaker 1: World Series, and played how does his fingerprints all over
Speaker 1: Game six and Game seven to win it well?
Speaker 2: And that what an amazing move from Doc to to
Speaker 2: instinctively say I'm gonna go with him in spite of
Speaker 2: some numbers. Honestly, like there their statisticians would have maybe said,
Speaker 2: I don't know on a couple of those things. And
Speaker 2: to know that he's going to change the game as
Speaker 2: a leader, and and by the way in the field
Speaker 2: he changed it a couple of times. And then there's
Speaker 2: obviously his home run, which was strangely like I had
Speaker 2: this feeling right before he hit it, did you.
Speaker 1: No, I don't know what I did not have o'ki.
Speaker 2: Did I was shocked, but I kind of did.
Speaker 1: I love it. What was that feeling.
Speaker 2: The feeling was he was going to get a hit,
Speaker 2: I hit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, he was going to find a way
Speaker 1: to get on for Otani, right, but not a home run.
Speaker 1: No first home run against the right handed pitcher all
Speaker 1: season long.
Speaker 2: That's amazing.
Speaker 1: And that was Jeff Hoffman. Eight six six two five
Speaker 1: seventy is the phone number. We have phone lines open
Speaker 1: if you want to talk to Brad Paisley about Dodger baseball.
Speaker 1: We are going to take a time out. We're gonna
Speaker 1: get your phone calls. We are going to share Joe
Speaker 1: Kelly again at the bottom of the hour. And since
Speaker 1: Brad Paisley talked about his gut in Game seven, we
Speaker 1: had a caller earlier this week that claimed he was
Speaker 1: at the same bar as Brad Paisley in Santa Barbara
Speaker 1: for Game seven. We are going to share that call
Speaker 1: with Brad and he is going to let us know
Speaker 1: if that was true or if this guy was just
Speaker 1: making up stories about our guy, Brad Paisley. More Dodger
Speaker 1: Talk from Parts Unknown with the Grand old opry Man himself.
Speaker 1: Brad Paisley right here on five seventy LA Sports and
Speaker 1: on five seventy LA Sports Instagram Live. What is this?
Speaker 2: It's my instrumental off of time always.
Speaker 1: Of course it is. I knew that.
Speaker 2: No you didn't.
Speaker 1: Brad Paisley is our guest.
Speaker 2: I have an entire catalog you've yet to discover.
Speaker 1: That's true. I can't lie. I you know, since I
Speaker 1: got to know you, you've put out some awesome songs
Speaker 1: that I do enjoy. Listen driving up here, Thank you
Speaker 1: Central Coast. You know I sang you know I would
Speaker 1: just burst out in song to Clayton Kershaw. Yes, you
Speaker 1: would see if that truck still works.
Speaker 2: The ballad of Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 1: Do you want to get a guitar and sing it?
Speaker 1: We could sing it together. We could create something here tonight.
Speaker 2: I don't think these people don't want to hear any
Speaker 2: of that. They're listening to hear wisdom from the great
Speaker 2: David Besse.
Speaker 1: And Brad Paisley.
Speaker 2: We do something.
Speaker 1: We have two lines open, so we're gonna get to
Speaker 1: your phone calls in a moment, so you could talk
Speaker 1: to super Dodger fan and a man that made the
Speaker 1: Tyler glass now trade come together, Brad Paisley but you
Speaker 1: mentioned Game seven of the World Series. You said you
Speaker 1: had that feeling for Miguel Rojas to hit that home run.
Speaker 1: We had a caller, caller Sheldon, a few nights ago,
Speaker 1: call in and at the end and of his humble
Speaker 1: brag phone call, he said that he was at the
Speaker 1: same bar as you watching the Dodgers beat the Blue
Speaker 1: Jays in game seven. Listen to this call and let
Speaker 1: us know if Sheldon was legit or if he was,
Speaker 1: you know, just making things up.
Speaker 3: And it's a fun fact. Game seven. I was watching
Speaker 3: the game at a bar here in Santa Barbara, right
Speaker 3: next to Brad Paisley. And that guy knows ball. He
Speaker 3: loves to talk about the Dodgers, and he was a
Speaker 3: great guy to watch the game with.
Speaker 1: Two.
Speaker 2: Well, that's cool, I know exactly. I think who that is.
Speaker 2: And uh so that's a legit story most likely. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean obviously had he given a few more details,
Speaker 2: but no, I was. I was at a bar in
Speaker 2: Santa Barbara watching Game seven. I wanted to go. I
Speaker 2: took I took a couple of family members down there.
Speaker 2: I wanted to go see it with people, you know,
Speaker 2: And unfortunately, the first three innings were the worst.
Speaker 1: Right, and after Bob Bashett hit that three around home run.
Speaker 2: Oh it was brutal, but these were great guys. Him
Speaker 2: and his family was really really cool and accommodating and
Speaker 2: said he'd been to a couple of concerts and yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: they were great. I wish that. And it's funny because
Speaker 2: when the game ended, we had wandered off and gone
Speaker 2: to a couple other places, and I went back there
Speaker 2: hoping to high five of them, and they weren't there anymore. So, Sheldon,
Speaker 2: if you're around, we need to get a selfie one
Speaker 2: of these days, wearing Dodger jerseys.
Speaker 1: Man of the People, Brad Paisley watching Game seven of
Speaker 1: the World Series and coming up at the bottom of
Speaker 1: the hour. We do have a pair of passes for
Speaker 1: tomorrow's inside the Locker Room presented by Verizon with Miguel Rojas,
Speaker 1: and if you can make it at four o'clock tomorrow
Speaker 1: in Burbank, we will let you know how you can
Speaker 1: win those tickets. So can you just describe the scene
Speaker 1: and describe Brad Paisley at the end of Game seven
Speaker 1: in this random bar in Santa Barbara.
Speaker 2: Well, so it basically we walked around. We weren't in
Speaker 2: that bar by the end, as you know. That was
Speaker 2: that was a That game took a while too, even
Speaker 2: though it was a nine any game, it was it
Speaker 2: was eleven game any game. By then we had moved
Speaker 2: around like we had gone to I went down to
Speaker 2: another bar, bar hopped a bar hopped because honestly, I
Speaker 2: needed to change the energy, ye know, yeah, like change
Speaker 2: your seat. So we did a bit a bunch of that,
Speaker 2: and then we by the time the game was over,
Speaker 2: I took Jasper, my youngest son, and we hit State
Speaker 2: Street in Santa Barbara just to run up and down
Speaker 2: it and go like see the because one of my
Speaker 2: favorite memories with my oldest son, Huck, was after we
Speaker 2: beat the Giants when that was the year that we
Speaker 2: used surez Aer in relief game five, yep.
Speaker 1: And that's when he made us believe he was that guy.
Speaker 2: So I took I took Huck down to State Street
Speaker 2: and that was amazing, like watching the celebration on one
Speaker 2: of these because State Streets really where all the college
Speaker 2: bars are in Santa Barbara.
Speaker 1: So what was State Street like after game seven?
Speaker 2: Amazing? And it was funny because I took Jasper down
Speaker 2: to the lower part where all of the college bars are,
Speaker 2: and he he flipped out and he was like, where
Speaker 2: is this? He didn't recognize it. Funk zone, He thought,
Speaker 2: is there just a party section of this town?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the whole town.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: UCSB is a party school.
Speaker 2: It is no doubt. And then the other fun thing
Speaker 2: was there's this cigar store. I love lea havana something.
Speaker 1: Do you want to give it away? People now will
Speaker 1: try to.
Speaker 2: They need, Yeah, they can use there. They find me there.
Speaker 2: They show the games in the bar. And so I
Speaker 2: had been in there earlier in the day and talked
Speaker 2: to a guy named Alex Black, who's one of the
Speaker 2: guys that works there, is a friend of mine, and
Speaker 2: and I was like, what do you think? And it's
Speaker 2: always just you just talk about the Dodgers here, you know,
Speaker 2: And so he was like, we were talking about whether
Speaker 2: we're gonna win this or not, and we had a
Speaker 2: real chance on Game seven and all that. So we
Speaker 2: walked in there and the place as soon as I
Speaker 2: walked in, I threw my hands up and they went nuts.
Speaker 2: And it was really because I hadn't seen them. I know,
Speaker 2: it wasn't that day because I hadn't really seen them
Speaker 2: since I had done the anthem, so it.
Speaker 1: Was really awesome. Yes, and that was.
Speaker 2: Really neat to go in there and see like a
Speaker 2: big celebration and everybody just taking photos of each other
Speaker 2: in that moment, because you know, we all want these memories.
Speaker 1: We haven't talked on the show since the Dodgers won
Speaker 1: the World Series. You haven't shared that story, so that's
Speaker 1: pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really fun because everybody has a story always,
Speaker 2: and you know, getting to go down and see this
Speaker 2: with other Dodger fans. Another favorite memory I have is
Speaker 2: at a bar in New York City during the playoffs
Speaker 2: when Otani had his three home run and ten strikeout.
Speaker 1: Game four the NLCS against the Brewers. You were in
Speaker 1: the Big Apple.
Speaker 2: So I watched it at a bar called Monk mcgin's
Speaker 2: in Tribeca. That's a it's a Irish pub. It's the
Speaker 2: perfect place to have seen the greatest baseball game ever
Speaker 2: played by I think a player in the in the postseason, right.
Speaker 1: I pushed back on that. I say it's one of
Speaker 1: the greatest. It is one of the greatest. No one's
Speaker 1: ever done that, No one ever has done that. That's true.
Speaker 1: But Otani has never done with some others.
Speaker 2: No, I agree, but I think think about this.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say no, but I'm just saying it's
Speaker 1: top You can't definitively say it was. The Dodgers were
Speaker 1: up three to zero in the series. He did hit
Speaker 1: three home runs and have ten strikeouts. Oral Herscheizer in
Speaker 1: Game two of the eighty eight World Series had an
Speaker 1: incredible game.
Speaker 2: They did for sure out hit the.
Speaker 1: Bash Brothers in the World Series and through a complete game.
Speaker 1: So Bob Gibson hit a home run and pitched a
Speaker 1: complete game, so it had I mean, there's been really
Speaker 1: good games, and I would put that in the grouping. Okay,
Speaker 1: top three at least, how about that? Can we agree
Speaker 1: top three? Ever in the playoffs? Okay, there's people that
Speaker 1: want to talk to you.
Speaker 2: Okay, and uh well, to finish my point on the
Speaker 2: New York things, watching New Yorkers.
Speaker 1: We got, we get. We we love to hate each other,
Speaker 1: we love to disagree with each other.
Speaker 2: Opinionated David dang it the no. But it's funny because
Speaker 2: watching New Yorkers sit there, their jaws were on the
Speaker 2: floor watching this marvel of you know, mother nature. Pitch
Speaker 2: hit by the second home run. I mean, everyone in
Speaker 2: that bar was like, the bar was silent in New
Speaker 2: York City. None of them were Dodger fans but me.
Speaker 2: And then he walks up there hits the third home
Speaker 2: run and they it's like, are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: It was great, It was It was fun to watch
Speaker 2: other sportsman appreciate him.
Speaker 1: And the size of the home runs. Mammoth home runs
Speaker 1: over the pavilion. I feel like that is the shock
Speaker 1: in awe that we all felt during that game. I
Speaker 1: was actually going to vote for Blake Snell for NLCSMVP
Speaker 1: until that game.
Speaker 2: You know what, I would have absolutely agreed with that,
Speaker 2: no doubt about it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, he set the tone in the Philly series,
Speaker 1: the Brewers series, but when he had when you have
Speaker 1: a guy have that type of game, it's it lights out.
Speaker 1: YEP eight six six seven two five seventy is the
Speaker 1: phone number. Brad Paisley has not kicked me out yet,
Speaker 1: so let's get to the phone calls before he does.
Speaker 1: Anthony and home Bolt County. You're on Dodger Talk with
Speaker 1: David Vasse and special guest Brad Paisley.

Speaker 4: to your Dodger talk and your daughter's insider and all that.

Speaker 4: And I listened to, Uh, I grew up in southern Calfinre,
Speaker 4: I grew up in Ventura. Man, he's going to Dodger
Speaker 4: games all the time, you know, And uh, what does
Speaker 4: that have.
Speaker 1: To do with Brad Paisley.
Speaker 2: He's there, David, let him finish.
Speaker 4: I was gonna I was gonna ask. I was gonna ask,
Speaker 4: is what you guys thought? But mister Paisley thought about
Speaker 4: the Dodgers pitching and also and then he's got the bats.
Speaker 4: He's got the bats. But I also wanted to ask
Speaker 4: what it thinks about said George Sanders, because Browns.
Speaker 1: Wow, he is really branching out here. All right, that's
Speaker 1: good Brad Paisley knowledge right there, Anthony. I was a
Speaker 1: little concerned when you started with Petros and money. All right,
Speaker 1: am I allowed to hang up on him right now, Brad, don't.
Speaker 1: I'll just put them on hold, all right. We might
Speaker 1: need his opinion, Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 2: See I'm saving you people from this jerk the h
Speaker 2: I think that uh to just touch on street door
Speaker 2: because nobody wanted to hear about this tonight. But it's funny.
Speaker 2: Stephen A. Smith said that they should hire Sam his
Speaker 2: dad as the coach Dion.
Speaker 1: That would be wild as well as the Browns.
Speaker 2: I mean, we can't. We could do way worse and
Speaker 2: might and you have and have and will and so yeah,
Speaker 2: who knows. But okay, so uh back to the Dodgers.
Speaker 2: I feel like, you know, uh.
Speaker 1: What was this question the lineup?
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, no, I kind of disagree when he says,
Speaker 2: I know we have the bats, but what do I
Speaker 2: think of the pitching? I kind of think it's the
Speaker 2: other way around. I think the Bats have some questions
Speaker 2: as far as we can't hit the slump we hit
Speaker 2: last year and from the second half on and and
Speaker 2: so I feel like it's going to be We're gonna
Speaker 2: know right away what Ale Tucker's edition meant, because, as
Speaker 2: you know, adding one little Domino to this chain changes
Speaker 2: everything about the way that guy's pitch to Otani or
Speaker 2: Bets or Freeman or or will Smith or anybody. So
Speaker 2: as far as pitching goes between David's uh, well, he
Speaker 2: claims to have been the reason that we have the
Speaker 2: incredible Blake Snell.
Speaker 1: I've never claimed that it was only at a caveat.
Speaker 2: Anyway between his friendship with with Snell as long as
Speaker 2: he doesn't like, you know, Janksim or anything.
Speaker 1: I sent you the voicemail because I was facetiming with
Speaker 1: Snell Zilla today.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a great guy, but I think I think
Speaker 2: that I can't believe he's even even signed. You're having
Speaker 2: to put up with you the I think him and
Speaker 2: and obviously Yamamoto, and then you've got Otani and then
Speaker 2: Glass Now I think you know everybody after that, from
Speaker 2: Suzaki to to she into Stone. It's just it's just
Speaker 2: a matter of like it could be the greatest rotation
Speaker 2: we've scene as is, And I don't worry about the
Speaker 2: pitching as far as like the bullpen goes, that's different
Speaker 2: every year.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna blow your mind about the Dodger bullpen. Okay,
Speaker 1: Edwin Diaz is going to be Edwin Diaz. The Dodgers
Speaker 1: will have Alex Vesia back. They are going to have
Speaker 1: Bruce Starr Graderol back. Really, and could you imagine if
Speaker 1: Tanner Scott goes back to being Tanner Scott all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, you're shortening the game to basically a six
Speaker 1: inning game. You better have a lead on the Dodgers. Yeah,
Speaker 1: for six innings.
Speaker 2: Tanner Scott was signed to be a closer. He had
Speaker 2: his troubles and some injuries, and so if he's ever
Speaker 2: back to being an actual closer in caliber, holy crap,
Speaker 2: we have two closers.
Speaker 1: Holy crap, really, really, holy crap.
Speaker 2: Oh man, who's famous for saying that.
Speaker 1: Bob in Malibu, loyal Dodger talk listener, you're on with
Speaker 1: David Vasse and Brad Paisley. How you doing, Bob?
Speaker 3: I'm doing good now. You guys do it tonight over there.
Speaker 3: Sounds like you guys are having a good time.
Speaker 2: We really are, in spite of the fact that this
Speaker 2: was probably a huge mistake.
Speaker 1: Thank goodness your friends are here, Kendall and Zach, because
Speaker 1: if they weren't here, the vibe would be very much different. Definitely,
Speaker 1: I kind of liked.
Speaker 4: Them more Dunia. I did like l Brad Dodge playing the.
Speaker 3: Song with Dave. That was smooth. Man got out of
Speaker 3: that one.
Speaker 4: I did like that.
Speaker 2: None of you all want to hear that crap. You're
Speaker 2: here to let's talk baseball, right, That's.
Speaker 1: Why Brad likes me. I don't even know any of
Speaker 1: his music. I didn't even know he's a musician.
Speaker 4: Day.
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure you have your demo tape in your pocket.
Speaker 3: You slipped it to him at some point.
Speaker 1: Pretty sure he does. All right, Bob, go ahead, what
Speaker 1: do you want to say?
Speaker 3: I want to ask Brad a question.
Speaker 4: So, Brad, you know we've all had the pleasure of
Speaker 4: seeing do the national anthem a couple times during the
Speaker 4: postseason through the years.
Speaker 3: Any year stand out to you as one of your
Speaker 3: favorites more than the others?
Speaker 2: Well, this year was wild. I mean so singing at
Speaker 2: the twenty eighteen game, I thought that would be history
Speaker 2: when it went eighteen and we finally won that it's
Speaker 2: the only game we won against the Red Sox, and
Speaker 2: I felt pretty good about the fact that, Like, as
Speaker 2: a person who thinks very hard about the Jinx thing,
Speaker 2: it's like I was glad to have that we won
Speaker 2: the game, I sang, and also it was like, okay, cool,
Speaker 2: I'm kind of a footnote in the record books with
Speaker 2: eighteen innings. That's pretty neat. So I didn't think anything
Speaker 2: and I still don't think it topped it, and I
Speaker 2: didn't think anything would top Game one against the Yankees,
Speaker 2: singing that anthem and sitting there. There's a picture of
Speaker 2: me and my wife in the suite right before he
Speaker 2: hits the home run. A friend of ours took it
Speaker 2: and I look like I have the flu because I
Speaker 2: just feel like we're gonna It's like, tell me, we're
Speaker 2: gonna tie this, and we're gonna win this game, you know.
Speaker 2: And the next thing you know, it's that, it's you know,
Speaker 2: we win the game with the walk off grand slam.
Speaker 2: It's the greatest swing of emotion I've ever felt, because
Speaker 2: I felt because you really it's weird, but you feel
Speaker 2: some pressure as the anthem singer. It's the difference between
Speaker 2: the next I went to Game two and everyone high
Speaker 2: five me, good job.
Speaker 1: That's like you had something to do with the outcome.
Speaker 2: And if it's the difference between that and man, you're
Speaker 2: a jinx, don't ever come back again exactly. I actually thought,
Speaker 2: just from a fans point of view, I've told you
Speaker 2: this before. My favorite rendition of the national anthem you've
Speaker 2: performed was the first game back after the pandemic when
Speaker 2: they allowed fans back at Dodger Stadium in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2: To me, that was super powerful.
Speaker 1: And to me, I mean I played that rendition a
Speaker 1: few different times.
Speaker 2: That was interestingly emotional in a way that no regular,
Speaker 2: even World Series game can be. I was really you know,
Speaker 2: I was really emotional the first time I ever sang
Speaker 2: in a World Series game for the Dodgers, because that
Speaker 2: was that was bizarre and awesome and like wow, any
Speaker 2: I remember they had Hank Aaron on the field and
Speaker 2: they had like you know, obviously it was first time
Speaker 2: I ever met Kofax and I'd already become friends with
Speaker 2: Clayton and two and he was, you know, such a force.
Speaker 2: And yeah. So, but as far as like that one
Speaker 2: after COVID having had a cardboard cutout between me and
Speaker 2: me and my wife and our family, we had we
Speaker 2: all had the cutouts, and you did two, I'm sure,
Speaker 2: and it was not the same, you know, watching a
Speaker 2: whole season where he couldn't go and then to go
Speaker 2: sing for the first time when fans were let back
Speaker 2: in the stadium. It got to me halfway through it,
Speaker 2: so there was more emotion than normal. But as far
Speaker 2: as like they it's it's definitely a toss up between
Speaker 2: this this game three, eighteen inning game where we walk
Speaker 2: it off and and I honestly think that's with Well,
Speaker 2: obviously mathematically without that we lose, but I think that
Speaker 2: momentum from that changed the entire series for us in
Speaker 2: some ways.
Speaker 1: If you don't win that game, the Dodgers don't win
Speaker 1: the World Series because the Blue Jays won the next
Speaker 1: two games, and it kind of felt and the guys
Speaker 1: admitted this. They were gassed after that eighteen inning game.
Speaker 1: They were the older team, and they showed it in
Speaker 1: the last two games at Dodgers Stay.
Speaker 2: I was shocked by that. I really thought they'd come
Speaker 2: back the next day with all the wind at their
Speaker 2: sales and.
Speaker 1: That was weird. Yeah, I was surprised too, but it
Speaker 1: makes sense. They're the veteran team and a lot was
Speaker 1: taken out of those bodies at that point in time
Speaker 1: in October. All right, we're gonna take our final time
Speaker 1: out here on Dodger Talk when we continue more phone calls.
Speaker 1: We have those passes to give away to tomorrow's Inside
Speaker 1: the Locker Room with Miguel Rojas, and we're going to
Speaker 1: share the legendary conversation with Joe Kelly Mariachi Joe. Oh boy,
Speaker 1: you love Mariachi Joe, so I thought i'd treat you.
Speaker 2: I think he's great.
Speaker 1: All right, Brad Paisley's got to save those pipes because
Speaker 1: that truck needs the work. Moving forward right here on
Speaker 1: a f five to seventy LA Sports Dodger Talk rolls
Speaker 1: on to the top of the hour. Brad Paisley kind
Speaker 1: enough to host us here at his humble abode in
Speaker 1: Parts unknown. Hey, we have a pair of passes for
Speaker 1: tomorrow's Inside the Locker Room of mcguil, Rojas Petro some
Speaker 1: money four to five presented by Verizon. I gotta give
Speaker 1: it to my guy Eric in Hollywood. He's a loyal listener.
Speaker 1: It calls into the show during the season, So Eric,
Speaker 1: you enjoy. Hopefully you can make it tomorrow. But Brad
Speaker 1: wanted to hear Joe Kelly and the interview that we
Speaker 1: shared last week. Here is Mariachi.
Speaker 3: Joe no, and the ten thousand dollars for thirty minutes
Speaker 3: is nice. Thank you for that too. You are having
Speaker 3: so much all those things. Hey, that was our agreement, right,
Speaker 3: our contract. You pay me ten grand for thirty minutes,
Speaker 3: and you can say whatever you'd like.
Speaker 1: It's in the mail. It's in the mail.
Speaker 3: Okay, ten thousand paces.
Speaker 1: Geez wow, Papa. Hey, I will say this, you didn't
Speaker 1: forget the little people when you got your ring last year.
Speaker 1: You did take time out of your family to say
Speaker 1: hi to me. So I wasn't sure if it was
Speaker 1: going to go that way.
Speaker 3: No, of course you're You're one of the little people
Speaker 3: compared to the Dodger well oiled machine. Right, But you're
Speaker 3: not a little person. You have your own niche, right,
Speaker 3: you have your own fan base. Your people meet you
Speaker 3: and they think you are what you think of me,
Speaker 3: Joe Kelly. So people come to meet you're like, oh,
Speaker 3: David Veasse, you're the best, and listen to your show.
Speaker 3: You're popular amongst your crowd. But yes, you're a little
Speaker 3: compared to me saying hi to everyone else was at
Speaker 3: Dodger Stadium. But you're not little to me. Man.
Speaker 1: I actually was buying my wife a birthday present, and
Speaker 1: the guy that was helping me listens to the show
Speaker 1: and I said, hey, I'm a going to have Joe
Speaker 1: Kelly on the show tonight and he said, oh, I
Speaker 1: have I have his number seventeen jersey. I said, oh,
Speaker 1: you're the one that still has one. So people still.
Speaker 3: Love you, dude. There's people still with number seventeen jerseys,
Speaker 3: and those are those are going more for Pokemon cards nowadays.
Speaker 3: That cat og og skin, the Joe Kelly seventeen, it's
Speaker 3: pretty rare. I love that those are one of one.
Speaker 3: You know, it's kind of like going to Disneyland and
Speaker 3: you're like one of those pin collectors. You know. It's
Speaker 3: like one of those those own little things are you're
Speaker 3: going to find the Hint and Mickey's. And when you're
Speaker 3: waiting in line and someone walks around with a Joe
Speaker 3: Kelly seventeen jersey, they're like, he gets it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. It's not like a guy that's walking
Speaker 1: around with a brand new Dodger hat that says twenty
Speaker 1: five World champs. It's a legit Dodger fan. If they
Speaker 1: have a seventeen Kelly jersey, Oh, die.
Speaker 3: Hard, bro. You know they watched. You know, they're watching
Speaker 3: ninety percent of all Dodger.
Speaker 1: Games, no doubt.
Speaker 3: Hey, since you know you asked you you go up
Speaker 3: to those fans, you say, Hey, who the frick do
Speaker 3: you think we should cut? Or who the hell do
Speaker 3: you think we should trade? They'll give you a right
Speaker 3: they'll give you a straight answer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you go up to a guy with a
Speaker 1: brand new hat, they'll just talk about otani.
Speaker 3: Guy with a brand new Kyle Tucker jersey, they'll have
Speaker 3: no idea. Well, yeah, what I like the Dodgers. Yeah,
Speaker 3: we should trade nobody.
Speaker 1: Since you're not playing baseball anymore. How many times have
Speaker 1: you been to Disneyland in the last couple of years?
Speaker 3: Once? Bro?
Speaker 2: What right?
Speaker 3: Years? Years?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Two years? Last two years?
Speaker 3: Dude, I don't know if you just heard what I
Speaker 3: said like five minutes ago about you know, you being
Speaker 3: like the little person. But if I go to Disneyland,
Speaker 3: it's not like I could just walk around there pretty easily,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So every time I go
Speaker 3: to Disneyland, I'll waste money which I should put in
Speaker 3: my kids saving the account. But I'll buy I'll buy
Speaker 3: the plaids, you know what I mean. I'll buy the
Speaker 3: VFP tour even if it's just like four of us,
Speaker 3: just so we could like do everything and you know,
Speaker 3: get in now. And I mean I'm only doing that
Speaker 3: once a year. Maybe it's worth it passes. Yeah, me
Speaker 3: and Ashleys to live in Anaheim actually probably like three
Speaker 3: minutes Fromain in the Stadium and then like six minutes
Speaker 3: from Disneyland like on a bicycle. Like my first couple
Speaker 3: of years in the league, we lived right and sorry
Speaker 3: ride in Anaheim and we were we remembers. And this
Speaker 3: is more COVID because COVID kind of changing everything where
Speaker 3: they got rid of like the annual pass holder type thing,
Speaker 3: like they're kind of bringing it back.
Speaker 1: But you are a Disney nerd.
Speaker 3: Dude, I'm not a Disney nerd. I just like like
Speaker 3: like entertainment, you know what I mean, It's not free.
Speaker 1: Are you? Are you a member of a Club thirty three?
Speaker 1: Are you a club? Are you a Club thirty three member?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: But I've been a few times with my dad, his
Speaker 3: his childhood best friends. The couple of remembers.
Speaker 1: Wow, mooching off a Club thirty three member?
Speaker 3: Very Joe Kelly Like, hey, I would I would, uh
Speaker 3: I'm I'm not going to bashed Club thirty three because
Speaker 3: you know I might go there one time.
Speaker 1: Are you on the list before before.
Speaker 3: Being a member of Club thirty three? The food is
Speaker 3: no better than like, you know, tacos, lost trolos, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean. But I mean that's firings. But
Speaker 3: the food is not.
Speaker 1: Great, all right, So we're not missing out too much.
Speaker 3: No no, no, no no, But it's cool just to
Speaker 3: say you're getting in there, all right.
Speaker 1: I love it. Joe Kelly is our guest. If you
Speaker 1: need any advice on how to navigate Disneyland, he's your guy.
Speaker 1: But you're the perfect guy to have on the show
Speaker 1: with all these people overreacting again because the Dodgers are
Speaker 1: trying to win. I thought that was the point of
Speaker 1: professional sports. What have you made about all these people
Speaker 1: saying there's gonna be a lockout? Now the Dodgers are
Speaker 1: are playing unfairly, nobody else has a chance. Since you're
Speaker 1: the guy that is a best selling author with an
Speaker 1: incredible book, a damn near perfect game reclaiming America's pastime,
Speaker 1: what do you make of all this?
Speaker 3: I love it. I love when people are bad and sad.
Speaker 3: There's nothing that. I'm not a very happy guy. You
Speaker 3: could ask my wife. But what makes me happy is
Speaker 3: other people bitching and complaining. You know what I mean, guy,
Speaker 3: It makes me feel so good. I don't even play,
Speaker 3: but I just like to stir the pot and see
Speaker 3: all the animosity. It's wonderful. I think it's great for
Speaker 3: the game of baseball. There's no way it's gonna be fixed.
Speaker 3: I don't care about people saying there's a lockout. There's
Speaker 3: a lockout last time, guys. You know what I mean.
Speaker 3: There's gonna be a lockout. There's always gonna be a
Speaker 3: lockout eventually for to see who you know, how long
Speaker 3: it goes. That is to be seen, obviously. But I mean,
Speaker 3: these guys were all free agents. It's it's it's not
Speaker 3: something that's very hard to do, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I don't understand what Joe Kelly unfiltered on Dodger Talk.
Speaker 1: So okay, I'm a big believer that with the Dodgers
Speaker 1: have done is just make baseball more relevant, having the
Speaker 1: Dodgers and Yankees in the World Series, having that epic
Speaker 1: World Series. How can anybody say the Dodgers are bad
Speaker 1: for baseball? The Dodgers being this good is great for baseball.
Speaker 3: Of course, it's great for baseball. You know, there's any
Speaker 3: given day I could go on, you know, someone given
Speaker 3: an interview or I mean, you got NBA analysts, you know,
Speaker 3: talking about Dodgers in baseball. You got NFL reporters talking
Speaker 3: Dodgers and talking baseball, you know what I mean. You
Speaker 3: got comedians getting mad with the effected Dodgers signing baseball
Speaker 3: like you're doing something right. And as an owner and
Speaker 3: as a league. If you could get all these people
Speaker 3: who didn't really care about baseball now talking about it
Speaker 3: as a top of conversation, you know, that's just good pub.
Speaker 3: It's it's it's good pub. And it's gonna open a
Speaker 3: lot of eyes to like the new the new CBA.
Speaker 3: That's gonna be fun. There's gonna be people giving their
Speaker 3: input and following along, you know, day by day on
Speaker 3: this kind of thing that you know, we don't really
Speaker 3: watch sports.
Speaker 1: Joe Kelly is our guest who did not announce his retirement,
Speaker 1: just said he's not going to play baseball anymore. Uh,
Speaker 1: just to let you know, you still have your mural
Speaker 1: at Dodger Stadium up on the reserve level. Maybe that'll
Speaker 1: change after this interview, but you still got it up
Speaker 1: there right now. And I was just wondering the reaction
Speaker 1: that you got when you start to say these things
Speaker 1: that you're not pitching anymore, you're not retiring. Uh what
Speaker 1: what did it? Did it trigger anything inside of you?
Speaker 1: The reaction you got from fans in Saint Louis, Boston
Speaker 1: and La.
Speaker 3: No, I don't think it.
Speaker 1: You were really celebrating. It was like a victory tour
Speaker 1: last week.
Speaker 3: I know, but I didn't. I'm not aware of that.
Speaker 3: That's see. That's what's the good thing about having no
Speaker 3: social media or nothing.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's why. Maybe that's why you're sad all the time.
Speaker 3: I'm not sad all the time. I'm very content. Brother.
Speaker 3: Uh maybe if I said I retired, though, they'd rip
Speaker 3: that mural down. No, No, I feel like I think
Speaker 3: you can say I'm not playing, They'll keep it.
Speaker 1: Yes, I think that there's no way they take it down.
Speaker 3: You know what this is why, because ever since that
Speaker 3: mural has been up, the Dodgers have one World series.
Speaker 3: You take it down, you're gonna lose World series. They're
Speaker 3: gonna drinx it.
Speaker 1: Wow, all right, you're saying that's the lucky charm.
Speaker 3: I mean, you take that mural down. Let's see if
Speaker 3: they win the World Series.
Speaker 1: I love it. I want you, man, I love that.
Speaker 1: I hope you loan your Maldiachi jacket to one of
Speaker 1: the guys when they get their rings this year, when
Speaker 1: they go out to the line and they, uh.
Speaker 3: One, who do you think should wear it?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 3: I think skinny enough, because dude, when I threw that
Speaker 3: first picture was so tight on me. I guess I'm
Speaker 3: like one ninety five now I played it. I played
Speaker 3: at like one eighty one eighty five, and my arms
Speaker 3: are so yoke, Dude, I couldn't even I bounced the ball.
Speaker 3: I couldn't lose my arm. It's so tight.
Speaker 1: You're saying you're so jacky enough to wear that thing.
Speaker 1: You're saying your swollen patrol.
Speaker 3: Now, oh, bro, I'm stronger, you know the you know
Speaker 3: the jokeman Bradford of the Best Shape of Life. I'm
Speaker 3: way stronger than when I played Wow. If there's a
Speaker 3: fist fight, there's like no now I could do, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Like, so Joe Kelly fight club walk up on.
Speaker 3: Me like I'm way more prepared than what I was
Speaker 3: playing baseball.
Speaker 1: Okay, I think Yamamoto or Mookie would fit into that jacket.
Speaker 3: Oh, Mookie will obviously, Yama would. Obviously, that's it. We
Speaker 3: only have two.
Speaker 1: I mean, who else, like Barnes isn't on the t
Speaker 1: won't be there. I would say Barnes, what about he
Speaker 1: would Will? Will? Will Smith's kind?
Speaker 3: Yeah too strong? Yeah, am is a good, good call, bro.
Speaker 1: He's a legend already. You know, him and Walker Bueller
Speaker 1: are legends forever. Dude, we should pitch it to him.
Speaker 3: I would let Yama do it. Yeah, pitch it to him.
Speaker 3: Go ahead.
Speaker 1: All right, here's another question for you. Did you see
Speaker 1: Freddie Freeman at the UH at the party after they
Speaker 1: won the World Series do the worm? What did you
Speaker 1: think about his worm skills? I?
Speaker 3: I did it. It went, it went across. Uh. I
Speaker 3: figured I was watching Mayors was in spectrum like a
Speaker 3: lackeram or something. Yeah, but yeah, I did see. I
Speaker 3: think it's I think it's a solid worm.
Speaker 1: All right, all right, hey, uh, this is part one
Speaker 1: of our five part series. So unlike your.
Speaker 3: I got to earn that ten grand right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So unlike your podcast, that can go on
Speaker 1: and on. This is a live show, so we gotta uh,
Speaker 1: we gotta ended here. But let's let's do this again soon.
Speaker 1: Maybe you'll come in.
Speaker 3: Yeah, take people call in. Some people call in because
Speaker 3: I know, I know, I've your producer, and they kind
Speaker 3: of went behind your back and told me that I
Speaker 3: could have your show whenever I said yes, So people
Speaker 3: call in. Let me know if you want me to
Speaker 3: take over a vast a show. We can still have him.
Speaker 3: He could be like a you know, maybe a regular,
Speaker 3: have a couple of appearances. But let me know if
Speaker 3: you want me to run Dodgers talk, get back to me.
Speaker 3: Get on the phones, dial in JK or DV.
Speaker 1: Wow, JK. We're going to the initials.
Speaker 3: Route now, huh yes, sir?

Speaker 1: your way to Burbank. You just gotta get over the
Speaker 1: dirt roads and in Riverside and Rancho and find your
Speaker 1: way to the one thirty four.
Speaker 3: I know where it's at.
Speaker 1: Bro all right, let's make it happen before spring training

Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll be out there in spring training. We got
Speaker 3: a tournament. Actually, we're coming to bring the team to
Speaker 3: maybe the practice field and see what's going on.
Speaker 1: All right, sounds good. Thanks a lot for coming on,
Speaker 1: and congratulations on, you know, just being a guy that
Speaker 1: lives at home and mooches off other people and Club
Speaker 1: thirty three and wears his Mickey ears all over the
Speaker 1: streets of Riverside.
Speaker 3: I feel like a normal American now, thank you?
Speaker 1: All right, Brad Kelly, you got to relive Mariachi Joe
Speaker 1: from last week. Where does Joe Kelly rank amongst your
Speaker 1: favorite Dodgers?
Speaker 2: Oh, that's easy. Number one Clayton Kershaw always will be
Speaker 2: greatest of all time, you know. Number two Jerry Harriston.
Speaker 1: Junior, Give me a break.
Speaker 2: Number three Joe Kelly.
Speaker 1: Wow, you have? You had such a high standard and
Speaker 1: then it really dropped with number two. And Joe Kelly's
Speaker 1: got a mural. Jerry Harriston does not have a mural.
Speaker 2: Jerry Herriston is an American treasurer. I hope he's listening.
Speaker 1: You're lucky we're at your house where I would throw things.
Speaker 2: Well, I stand by my opinion, and opinions are never wrong.
Speaker 1: They're just opinions, David, except when I tell you they're wrong, all.
Speaker 2: Right, well we can agree to disagree on this.
Speaker 1: Hi, Jerry, Hey, seriously, one other question, Joe Kelly, have
Speaker 1: you seen the mural? Have you been up to the
Speaker 1: reserve level. I know you're a guy that stays field level.
Speaker 2: I've seen it. I saw it at one of the
Speaker 2: charity events. It's amazing. It's really uh so they got
Speaker 2: to keep it to win again?
