Speaker 1: Sweet Harp for the rebound. They get it to Wembes
Speaker 1: tack to Harper. Three seconds left now with two sham,
Speaker 1: Patty moves to his left fire so three a's the
Speaker 1: buzzard that's off the front rim. No good.
Speaker 2: The ball game is over.
Speaker 3: The Temperwolves have stolen.
Speaker 2: Game one in San Antonio. One O four, one O two.
Speaker 4: How about that? I think we're on there. I'm not
Speaker 4: one hundred percent sure.
Speaker 2: Oh are you?
Speaker 4: Can you not hear yourself?
Speaker 2: Check?
Speaker 1: Check?
Speaker 4: I know you're on.
Speaker 2: What is going on?
Speaker 4: It's just me and you?
Speaker 2: Oh my god? It doesn't matter.
Speaker 4: That is the least important part of the entire thing.
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter. As long as everybody's happy where they're at,
Speaker 4: doing what they're doing. Everybody's good. It doesn't matter. Everybody
Speaker 4: the radio shows the last thing on anybody's mind. It
Speaker 4: doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: The Wolves almost blew the game there at the end.
Speaker 4: But that's a terrible way to look at it.
Speaker 5: They almost they almost blew it, But man an, it
Speaker 5: was great. One four, one O two. The Wolves hold
Speaker 5: on and win Game one against Wemby's monster triple double
Speaker 5: and his twelve blocks felt like forty. Yeah, it's a
Speaker 5: freak because they have a weak spot. Is there something
Speaker 5: you can't do? I mean freak, he's a freak. And
Speaker 5: somehow they still won Game one. How about that? Man?
Speaker 2: And we don't even have Io back yet. We can
Speaker 2: do this. I know we don't have iiO.
Speaker 4: Nope, we have Iyo, but we had Anto.
Speaker 5: They've played four times this year with a regular season
Speaker 5: and the postseason, and the Wolves are three and one
Speaker 5: against San Antonio.
Speaker 2: We can do this.
Speaker 4: That is correct.
Speaker 5: Growing optimism with the Wolves. We got to get the
Speaker 5: optimism back on track tonight in Denver.
Speaker 2: It's not over yet. It's not We go live to.
Speaker 4: Max who was in San Antonio with Oh wait, no,
Speaker 4: he's not. We don't have anybody in San Antonio with
Speaker 4: the Wolves. No hell, what's going on? And it was
Speaker 4: big though.
Speaker 6: I know for a fact, just me being out there
Speaker 6: it calms everybody down. Not saying like he's any pressure
Speaker 6: on any of my teammates, but it takes pressure off
Speaker 6: of everybody just knowing that I'm out there, I'm available
Speaker 6: to play, you know, doing what I do best.
Speaker 3: Just trying to put the ball in the hoop.
Speaker 4: How about that?
Speaker 2: Yep, looked absolutely normal.
Speaker 5: He had that one shot where he landed a little
Speaker 5: bit awkward and then hobbled for about I don't know,
Speaker 5: three seconds.
Speaker 4: That's right.
Speaker 5: By the time he got to Midquarty looked like he
Speaker 5: was running pretty normally again. So there was one kind
Speaker 5: of scary moment. Otherwise he looked pretty normal. It's crazy dominant.
Speaker 5: I thought they were giving us the old faint. I
Speaker 5: didn't think there was any chance he was going to
Speaker 5: play last night. I thought they were just saying he's,
Speaker 5: you know, an option, just to make him worry, and
Speaker 5: there he was.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we saw the line move throughout the day if
Speaker 5: you were watching the old betting markets.
Speaker 3: Again.
Speaker 2: We talked about it yesterday morning that even.
Speaker 5: Though he was cleared to play, the line still was
Speaker 5: at thirteen and a half right hadn't moved, which means
Speaker 5: I think a lot of sharks were like, I don't
Speaker 5: think he's playing, and then I don't know what.
Speaker 2: Halfway through the day they're like, he's gonna go tonight.
Speaker 4: Did it start to move.
Speaker 5: And then it was like nine and a half. I
Speaker 5: don't know what it closed out, but it moved four
Speaker 5: or five points. We don't need points, we just win
Speaker 5: flat out. Take him on the money line one O four,
Speaker 5: one oh two.
Speaker 2: Yeah, how about mis a cake.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the first time I've ever watched a game
Speaker 4: that Wemby ever played basketball. And yeah, I know we
Speaker 4: played him before and I probably should, but you know,
Speaker 4: when I found it was just you and I today,
Speaker 4: I was like, I better have something to talk to
Speaker 4: Corey about till until Marnie gets here. And uh or,
Speaker 4: as we call her, Big Citrus. Yeah, big Citrus, yes,
Speaker 4: here about seven and uh So I was watching him,
Speaker 4: I'm like, well, how are we supposed to beat that guy?
Speaker 4: That's like me playing against kindergarten. Well, no, it's not good.
Speaker 4: It's like it's like Parker playing against me.
Speaker 2: Yes, that's what it's like. I don't know how.
Speaker 4: To cover Parker. He's nine feet tall, Edie, but he
Speaker 4: was having hard It looked like he was having trouble on.
Speaker 2: The prim Wemby. Yeah, defending or shooting. Shooting.
Speaker 5: He didn't have a great shooting night, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: And the dude can shoot.
Speaker 2: Why Unicorn, Unicorn? Did you see the block? I forget
Speaker 2: who it was on. Was it on Rudy?
Speaker 5: There was a block that Wemby had I saw like
Speaker 5: ten blocks. Yeah, well again it felt like forty yeah.
Speaker 5: And they showed the replay on NBC and it was
Speaker 5: Wemby pretended for a second that he wasn't paying attention
Speaker 5: and then quickly got, you know, half a step backwards
Speaker 5: and swatted it and in slow motion you're like, oh
Speaker 5: my god, that's exactly what he did. He literally was
Speaker 5: playing possum like go ahead and then boom, swats it
Speaker 5: and is it Jamal Crawford, I forget who was on
Speaker 5: the call last night, and he.
Speaker 2: He compared it to that is exactly what you do.
Speaker 5: Like in middle school, tall kids would always do that,
Speaker 5: pretend for a second that they had their back to you,
Speaker 5: right and you're like, oh cool, I'm getting a layup
Speaker 5: and then just swap the hell out of your shot.
Speaker 5: And as a guy that was a very small, scrawny,
Speaker 5: terrible point guard, I'm like, I'm going to get to score.
Speaker 5: And then my buddies would just kick it into the
Speaker 5: you know, upper deck, just bat it away.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was kind of people.
Speaker 4: That was the kind of thing that happened when I
Speaker 4: played basketball against my big brother he's five years older
Speaker 4: than me, and then he would punch me if I
Speaker 4: actually made a shot, which I don't think Wimby did, doesn't, No, buddy,
Speaker 4: I don't think he did. It is cool though, you
Speaker 4: could almost see the look on Rudy's face like all right, yeah,
Speaker 4: good job.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 4: You know you could tell like he's there. You know,
Speaker 4: they were teammates, right, all that jazz and France and stuff,
Speaker 4: and there's like a mentor to him in all that jazz, right, Yeah,
Speaker 4: I don't.
Speaker 5: I don't were they I don't know if they've ever
Speaker 5: been teammates maybe, right, I mean they're definitely you know,
Speaker 5: a mentor.
Speaker 2: Mente kind of thing, right, but you can kind of
Speaker 2: lay both on the well.
Speaker 5: So on the French national team a couple of years ago,
Speaker 5: there was what go Bear, there was Gobert, there was
Speaker 5: ce Smoke, there was Vaguar, I remember Alian Sunfire.
Speaker 4: I don't remember if one day was on that team
Speaker 4: go Barrio, right, Yeah, I mean it's the look on
Speaker 4: his faces like, yeah, I don't know, I know what
Speaker 4: am I supposed to do. He's taller than me and
Speaker 4: I'm always the tallest guy.
Speaker 5: Rudy's having a fantastic postseason. Last night, though, was he
Speaker 5: was one of those It was one of those offensively
Speaker 5: frustrating games where Rudy all of a sudden can't catch.
Speaker 5: He gets the ball ten feet from the basket and
Speaker 5: thinks he's you know, Chris Paul. That's really frustrating. He
Speaker 5: should really only dunk. Yeah, and he should definitely not
Speaker 5: shoot free throws. Remember when we had you and I
Speaker 5: had that free throw bet?
Speaker 4: Yes, I do.
Speaker 5: It was how many out of fifty I think you
Speaker 5: could make? And I don't remember what the over under was. Yeah,
Speaker 5: it was something like that, and you beat it by
Speaker 5: a couple, right, you won the bet?
Speaker 4: Yep.
Speaker 5: I know if I try to shoot free throws in
Speaker 5: front of a crowd that big and.
Speaker 2: They were screaming at me, and I knew there were
Speaker 2: millions of people.
Speaker 5: Watching at home, obviously I would have to get used
Speaker 5: to that pressure, because that pressure.
Speaker 2: Would be very difficult, of course.
Speaker 5: But I truly think if you gave me a couple
Speaker 5: of years, he's so terrible at free throws, that's the
Speaker 5: one thing I could definitely be eventually better than Rudy
Speaker 5: Goberrat because I can't do anything else as good as him. No,
Speaker 5: maybe dribble, he's not a very good drib Maybe drive yeah,
Speaker 5: but I mean you mean drive a car.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh maybe, yeah maybe.
Speaker 5: Like man, his free throws are just he almost he
Speaker 5: almost air balled about fifteen last night. He was one
Speaker 5: of five from the foul line, and I'm surprised any
Speaker 5: of them even hit the rim.
Speaker 4: I bet he has a hard time picking dimes up
Speaker 4: off the ground.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he seems pretty flexible. He's not Wemby flexible. Yeah,
Speaker 5: but they're little and he's big man. Yeah, Wenby's a freak.
Speaker 4: Wemby's a freak.
Speaker 2: Mar He had his number last night. He was oh
Speaker 2: of eight from three.
Speaker 4: You know what I find What I found interesting is
Speaker 4: everybody kept saying the only chance we had to beat
Speaker 4: them our experience, And from what I read this morning,
Speaker 4: that's how we beat.
Speaker 5: Them, I would say, I mean, outside of Tarren Shannon,
Speaker 5: who doesn't have a lot of experience, everybody else, Aunt
Speaker 5: Randall McDaniels, you know, the experience of Mike Conley, the
Speaker 5: steady hand of Mike Conley, who was big last night.
Speaker 2: I think we can do it.
Speaker 4: T Shannon, by the way, we.
Speaker 1: Don't feel nobody, so we don't cheat him like a
Speaker 1: regular a regular player.
Speaker 3: Obviously, he's a freaking nature. But you know when he does. Now,
Speaker 3: we got to kick it to the.
Speaker 7: Corner, find the open to people who are open.
Speaker 3: But it's just definitely gotta make this off.
Speaker 4: I like the concept that they don't fear anybody. I
Speaker 4: liked it.
Speaker 2: That would be good.
Speaker 5: Yeah, if we don't have Terarren Shannon playing well though,
Speaker 5: we essentially have no bench.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because we Na's was a little frustrating last night
Speaker 2: as well. He had twelve points. But I don't know.
Speaker 5: I think there's a lot of people regretting Nas read tattoos.
Speaker 5: We need a lot more out of NAS if we're
Speaker 5: going to make a true championship run here.
Speaker 4: People got an all tons of them. Well you know
Speaker 4: what they could do. They could change them into Nazareth tattoos.
Speaker 4: You know the band now, y'all almost with a son
Speaker 4: of a bitch.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think they'd be going backwards, both in time
Speaker 5: and in just give it the quality.
Speaker 2: Tarren Shannon, man, what a what a force? He was
Speaker 2: the basket? He sure does you watch the game?
Speaker 4: I told you I did.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he attacks the basket, he's full speed.
Speaker 4: I do what's good for the show? Corey?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Watching basketball?
Speaker 4: That's right?
Speaker 5: Did you stay up until the end. Of course, I
Speaker 5: was on the brink of regretting that. I was regretting
Speaker 5: it the whole time.
Speaker 4: It was uh and it was like if somebody said,
Speaker 4: you know what, Corey, tomorrow, we're gonna do a big
Speaker 4: breakdown on the Daytona five hundred, you gotta watch that
Speaker 4: whole sum bitch, because the ain't nobody else that's going
Speaker 4: to be there. It's just you and Corey. Are you
Speaker 4: in hockey and he needs somebody to talk to about
Speaker 4: the dayton of five hundred. You should watch it, and
Speaker 4: you would watch it, but you wouldn't enjoy it.
Speaker 5: I think I would have gone to bed and then
Speaker 5: got up twenty minut and it's earlier just to watch
Speaker 5: as many highlights as possible, So I still could have
Speaker 5: talked yeah, fake knowledgeable about.
Speaker 4: It, right, which is what I've been doing right honestly, Yeah,
Speaker 4: would have tried.
Speaker 2: I like Alan Horton. Yeah, he's the best, the best
Speaker 2: in the world.
Speaker 4: I listened to his highlights when I got here, and
Speaker 4: he's good at what he do.
Speaker 2: Ye like that guy.
Speaker 4: I like him a lot. I like when Anthony Edwards
Speaker 4: is talking trash on people.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, there's a lot of people, Chris, that
Speaker 5: think that Victor Winbinyam is essentially the best player on
Speaker 5: the planet or on the brink of being the best
Speaker 5: player on the planet. But last night Ant looked like
Speaker 5: the best player in the game. I mean, outside of
Speaker 5: the twelve blocks, which again were dominant to an NBA
Speaker 5: postseason record. It's a weird triple double for Wemby, but
Speaker 5: it didn't look like the Spurs could have could do
Speaker 5: anything to stop Ant when he really wanted to go.
Speaker 4: Listen to this. This is a great Listen to the
Speaker 4: last line of Finchy here. I hope this is the one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was huge.
Speaker 8: I mean it was, you know, but by that time
Speaker 8: I found a little bit of a rhythm, and I
Speaker 8: thought Julius was really good, just subtly good with the
Speaker 8: everything he was doing off ball and and obviously when
Speaker 8: he had the ball in his hands.
Speaker 3: But Ant was awesome.
Speaker 2: It was really good.
Speaker 3: I mean, forgot how good he was.
Speaker 2: Actually.
Speaker 4: How about that, I forgot how good he was actually.
Speaker 4: That's pretty funny, man.
Speaker 5: And again that's what sucks about de Vincenzo being out
Speaker 5: in iow out right now and even and out for
Speaker 5: a couple of games.
Speaker 2: And we thought it was going to be longer. Is like,
Speaker 2: I think they were right.
Speaker 5: We made fun of him all year about the playoff Wolves,
Speaker 5: that the Wolves just thought they were going to flip
Speaker 5: the switch and get it going. We're like, yeah, but
Speaker 5: this regular season is super frustrating. It seems like you're
Speaker 5: not taking it seriously. You're being lazy. Just why can't
Speaker 5: you play better? And I don't know, man, Jayden's on
Speaker 5: another level, and it's on another level right now.
Speaker 2: Rudy's having a great postseason.
Speaker 4: All you got to do is make the playoffs.
Speaker 2: I guess playoffs and then flip the switch. I don't know.
Speaker 4: That that home court advantage is only one game. You know,
Speaker 4: we stole it back, right and now we stole it back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 4: Well, anything's possible, Corey, anything's possible if we beat if
Speaker 4: we were to find a way and suddenly I'm a
Speaker 4: member of the team, if we were to find a
Speaker 4: way to beat San Antonio. Is it your thoughts that
Speaker 4: our next round opponent wouldn't be anywhere near as good
Speaker 4: as San Antonio?
Speaker 2: Nope, it would be even more difficult. It's the Oklahoma
Speaker 2: City thunder hell, that ain't right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a little bit like although I do believe
Speaker 5: the NBA champion will come out of that next matchup,
Speaker 5: I think whoever wins the Western Conference Finals is winning
Speaker 5: the NBA title. So I feel a little bit like
Speaker 5: the NHL playoffs because you could argue that the winner
Speaker 5: of the whole tournament's going to come out of this series.
Speaker 5: Agree the wild in the abs, whoever wins this one
Speaker 5: is the front runner to win the whole thing potentially.
Speaker 4: Well, there you go. That sucks, but you can't win
Speaker 4: them all to you win that first one, and we
Speaker 4: won the first one last night.
Speaker 2: That is correct. Nothing. What a game of the Minnesota
Speaker 2: Timberwolves basketball.
Speaker 4: It's what for dinner?
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 5: And if you throw a basketball up on a roof,
Speaker 5: it won't get stuck in your gutters if you have
Speaker 5: gutter helmet and gutter helmet MN.
Speaker 4: And I'm wondering when he leaves his home will he
Speaker 4: be taking his gutter helmets with him.
Speaker 2: It's a good point.
Speaker 5: Sauce isn't here today because he's moving moving, which you know,
Speaker 5: he doesn't move physically right, and he's not doing the
Speaker 5: physical move today, which means he's probably on like a throne,
Speaker 5: just going move that there.
Speaker 2: That's what he put that here.
Speaker 4: That makes sense.
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't think he's doing anything, especially not
Speaker 5: at five forty four in the morning.
Speaker 4: I can't imagine that he's doing anything anything. It's sort
Speaker 4: of like a Rosie Beck in the day. You know,
Speaker 4: he had a dentist appointment at three in the afternoon,
Speaker 4: so he couldn't be on with us in the morning.
Speaker 2: Right, there's no way they're moving now it's five in
Speaker 2: the morning.
Speaker 4: He could have been here for the first hour and
Speaker 4: a half at the very least, and then gone and
Speaker 4: done nothing.
Speaker 2: And saved the vacation day.
Speaker 5: I mean, the vacation just a smart play, just to say, hey,
Speaker 5: I can only do it until seven thirty.
Speaker 2: Then I gotta be there at eight for the movers.
Speaker 2: We'd say great.
Speaker 5: Right, this way, he wasted a vacation day and he's
Speaker 5: not doing anything right.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 4: He should have found a way to talk Abbot into
Speaker 4: letting him not taking vacation day. He should have said,
Speaker 4: send me to San Antonio and I'll cover the Timberwolves
Speaker 4: and then stayed at home because nobody would know if
Speaker 4: he was actually at the games.
Speaker 2: Matter interesting.
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. There's ways to work the system.
Speaker 5: Hey, Marny will be here though here no John Bonus today.
Speaker 5: He's in Philadelphia running at ten milers. I believe that
Speaker 5: is correct. I think he said he's running.
Speaker 4: A ten That man, he runs and runs.
Speaker 2: It's ten more miles than I want to run.
Speaker 4: It runs and runs.
Speaker 2: Man, big win for the Wolves. This is the Power
Speaker 2: Trip Morning Show on the fan.
Speaker 5: Damn.
Speaker 4: Hey, welcome back to the powers of Morning show. Here
Speaker 4: we are at five forty nine. So yesterday when we
Speaker 4: were on the show, Corey, we talked about that plane
Speaker 4: hitting that semi truck in New Jersey.
Speaker 2: Yeah, did you see it.
Speaker 5: I've seen a video. I had not heard of it
Speaker 5: when you guys mentioned it, and then I watched the video.
Speaker 5: And that's the most terrifying thing. We've talked about that
Speaker 5: in the past. Like if you you are on a
Speaker 5: plane that's going down, you have a couple of seconds,
Speaker 5: maybe a minute, depending on how long the crash takes
Speaker 5: to think about, well, this is it. That guy driving
Speaker 5: the truck is just driving on, driving along right und
Speaker 5: zero idea, because why would you think that even though
Speaker 5: you're driving right by an airport. Why would you think
Speaker 5: I'm about to get hit by a plane. You don't
Speaker 5: see the plane about to clip the top of your
Speaker 5: car or whatever. So he's just driving along. That video
Speaker 5: is haunting because he's just like, hey, having a great day. Yeah,
Speaker 5: almost dead without even knowing what hit him. And he
Speaker 5: would have been dead and never had a chance to
Speaker 5: process what's happening. It's just over before you even know it.
Speaker 5: But luckily survived, no clue.
Speaker 4: And the crazy thing is he probably drives because he
Speaker 4: was working. He probably drives that route twice a day,
Speaker 4: at least every day. Right, listen to the sound of it,
Speaker 4: though just at the last second you hear that plane.
Speaker 4: And again, even though he hears the plane, he probably
Speaker 4: didn't think it's going to hit me. He probably hears
Speaker 4: the plane go overheaded all the time.
Speaker 5: And probably again, by the time he realizes what the
Speaker 5: sound is.
Speaker 2: It's too late.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And he might not even have processed by the
Speaker 5: time it hit what the hell is that boom?
Speaker 2: Right, might be dead.
Speaker 4: That's the whole thing about like you know, when people
Speaker 4: talk about and you know, you get what I'm saying,
Speaker 4: Like ghosts who don't leave the place they're at because
Speaker 4: they don't know they're dead, like you know, like you
Speaker 4: just said, a moment ago, he would he was alive
Speaker 4: and then as he could have been dead and never
Speaker 4: even known why he died. So I plugged him, you know, ma'am.
Speaker 3: It's not.
Speaker 2: My gosh, man, Yeah, I didn't. Nobody died easy.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know. Would you rather have
Speaker 4: moments to get yourself all set up or would you
Speaker 4: rather just be gone? That is the question you could
Speaker 4: argue either way. Yeah, I guess it depends on your
Speaker 4: thoughts on the afterlife, right we'reck thereof sure oo LOADI.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's heavy.
Speaker 4: That's heavy, man. That's what we talk about on the
Speaker 4: parche At Morning Show on the day after this happens.
Speaker 1: Harper the rebound, they get it to Webbay and Harper
Speaker 1: back to Harper free snackets left now with two, Sam
Speaker 1: Penney moves to his left, fires a three at the buzzer.
Speaker 1: That's off the front rim. No good.
Speaker 3: The ball game is over.
Speaker 1: The Timberwolves of Stolen Game one in San Antonio one
Speaker 1: oh four, one oh two.
Speaker 4: That's why they call it a game of inches.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was close.
Speaker 5: And again we had a relatively big lead late and
Speaker 5: almost pissed it away, but luckily that shot didn't drop
Speaker 5: and they win by two.
Speaker 2: But again wemby a triple double eleven points. We'll take that.
Speaker 5: Yes, fifteen boards and twelve blocks. That was an NBA
Speaker 5: postseason record twelve blocks just the third playoff triple double
Speaker 5: in NBA history that included blocks. Wow, we'll take it.
Speaker 5: Game two Wednesday in San Antonio.
Speaker 4: When and when when you have a star the size
Speaker 4: of ant And I don't mean physically, I mean, you know,
Speaker 4: maybe the best player in the league. Right, although I
Speaker 4: don't know how you say when Mignona is not after
Speaker 4: watching him last night again it's I don't understand how
Speaker 4: anybody's going to beat him. But anyway, when you have
Speaker 4: a star, especially in basketball like Aunt, you kind of
Speaker 4: let him weigh in a lot on the decision about
Speaker 4: whether or not he's going to play, right, I mean,
Speaker 4: if you feel like he can go, and then when
Speaker 4: when he does go, you have to clear it with
Speaker 4: him whether or not you're going to put him on
Speaker 4: a pitch count, right, Because I didn't think about it
Speaker 4: until I heard Finch say this this morning when I
Speaker 4: was loading the audio in.
Speaker 8: We talked yesterday that you know, if he was able
Speaker 8: to go, he was going to come off the bench
Speaker 8: and that you know that was fine with him, which
Speaker 8: it absolutely was. I mean, we communicated exactly how we
Speaker 8: were going to use him, and you know, he was
Speaker 8: all in.
Speaker 3: You know, he did a really good job.
Speaker 2: Of like not pushing in four seeing things even though
Speaker 2: he knew he was on a minute's restrictions.
Speaker 3: I thought he did a really good job of just
Speaker 3: staying in the flow.
Speaker 2: Twenty five minutes.
Speaker 5: Yeah, which is we'll take it, because he had eighteen
Speaker 5: points in twenty five minutes. And there was once for
Speaker 5: sure that they showed on TV, but maybe it happened
Speaker 5: more quietly or privately, But there was one time where
Speaker 5: it looked like Finch was going to take him out
Speaker 5: and Ant yelled at the bench like I'm good. I
Speaker 5: promise you I'm good. I'm good, Like, don't take me out,
Speaker 5: and they broke that down and they showed that film
Speaker 5: that he was kind of waving and off like I'm
Speaker 5: not ready.
Speaker 3: To come out.
Speaker 5: I mean, if you can play like that for twenty
Speaker 5: five minutes in game one, now you have another day arrest.
Speaker 3: YEA.
Speaker 5: Hopefully he gets healthier and healthier is this series goes on.
Speaker 5: I think the Spurs have to be terrified that he's back.
Speaker 4: What about the io is he Do we know when
Speaker 4: he's back?
Speaker 2: I do not know.
Speaker 5: It's still calf soreness taking him out of the series
Speaker 5: so far, So I don't know.
Speaker 4: Don't you hate that? I mean, I get it, like
Speaker 4: your body's your body and somebody was it brow. Yesterday
Speaker 4: I was talking about the difference between having a contract
Speaker 4: and not have a contract or something. You know, like
Speaker 4: if you know you're solid with your team, you're more
Speaker 4: likely to come back and not, you know, but if
Speaker 4: you're risk it, Yeah, you don't want to risk it
Speaker 4: if you don't have a solid contract.
Speaker 5: You could argue it both ways though, too, right, because
Speaker 5: iow in that last series when he had forty three
Speaker 5: or whatever it was, and it was just a revelation.
Speaker 5: You'd say, well, if you're a free agent, don't you
Speaker 5: want to do that as often as possible this postseason?
Speaker 5: So yeah, the amount of money you get is astronomical.
Speaker 5: You don't want to leave any doubt. So I would say, yeah,
Speaker 5: he probably is not tanking this just to protect his career.
Speaker 5: You got to get your name out there and make
Speaker 5: sure you get an absolute bag here this summer, and
Speaker 5: he's going to but hopefully from the Wolves. I hope
Speaker 5: they don't lose eye of this.
Speaker 4: On the other side of that, though, obviously, is if
Speaker 4: you don't feel like you're gonna go out and play
Speaker 4: a good game and you just put in forty and
Speaker 4: now you're going to come out on one wheel and
Speaker 4: look like hell, maybe you don't want to damage yourself
Speaker 4: and damage your body any further on. I don't know.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 5: So they keep talking about Jule Eric in the Wild
Speaker 5: Series that he's really really hurt and it's it's not
Speaker 5: a small injury. But as they like to say in
Speaker 5: the hockey world, because it's the Cup, he might try
Speaker 5: to find a way to force his way back onto
Speaker 5: the ice and give it a shot and give it
Speaker 5: a go and just play through the pain, whatever pain
Speaker 5: he's dealing with.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I know people like to think that basketball players are
Speaker 5: all super soft because they make forty or fifty or
Speaker 5: sixty million, some of the guys at the top. But
Speaker 5: I do think they once they get to the postseason,
Speaker 5: they care about legacy, They care about rings. Like I
Speaker 5: think Aunt cares. Otherwise, he would have waited to a
Speaker 5: game three or four. Sure, and if they're down three
Speaker 5: to the Spurs, he would have been like, I'm just
Speaker 5: I'm not feeling it right right. That's not the case.
Speaker 5: He did everything he could to get back for game one.
Speaker 5: It's some of these guys give a crap, which is great.
Speaker 4: Zakis in Colorado. He actually has audio of eric'sinette getting
Speaker 4: out of bed this morning.
Speaker 2: It's going to fight through that.
Speaker 4: Doesn't sound good, doesn't look good.
Speaker 2: It's gonna fight through that again.
Speaker 5: I'm I'm so pumped for a seven o'clock game tonight
Speaker 5: because night sucked. It's awesome that we won, but time
Speaker 5: off was what eight? I don't even remember eight forty
Speaker 5: eight fifty Yeah, yeah. I kept looking at the clocket
Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter. I'm like, if we blow this
Speaker 5: game and I stayed up the whole time, I'm gonna
Speaker 5: be so mad.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: Why can't we have nights things? Why can't we have
Speaker 2: normal game time?
Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know. Is that good job
Speaker 4: getting the audio from Eric's in next bedroom. I don't
Speaker 4: know how you got that access, But that's why you're
Speaker 4: the man on the scene.
Speaker 9: I mean, you just go to the front desk and
Speaker 9: they'll I mean, you're convincing enough, they'll give you a
Speaker 9: keys to anybody's right.
Speaker 4: It doesn't seem fair.
Speaker 5: Do they use aliases or did they just use their
Speaker 5: normal names?
Speaker 2: Do you remember what room jewel Ericson I technically was
Speaker 2: staying in.
Speaker 4: What his name was, Sir Jennifer Beadle?
Speaker 3: It was Eule Jerrickson, Jack.
Speaker 2: That's that's not a good I don't think anyone's gonna
Speaker 2: fall for that.
Speaker 4: Although there are a lot of mules out there. It
Speaker 4: is Colorado after all.
Speaker 5: Or if I guess, if so would go to the
Speaker 5: desk there in Denver, he'd be like, last name Eck
Speaker 5: and they go, we don't have anybody under that name. No,
Speaker 5: his last name's Eck, Joel Eck. That's all right, Yeah,
Speaker 5: that's all right now, Joel X not staying here. We
Speaker 5: don't have anyone under the bad name.
Speaker 2: Come on, just tell me.
Speaker 3: I know he's here.
Speaker 2: From Page Sports. In a second, Zach is in Denver again.
Speaker 5: Game two tonight, Wild and Avs seven o'clock right here
Speaker 5: on the fan.
Speaker 2: It's the only game in the NHL tonight. I believe
Speaker 2: I about that. Yeah, prime time for the wild tonight.
Speaker 2: Uh from Page Sports After this, I'm the fan.
Speaker 9: Playoff basketball is heating up and Carboni's Pizzeria wants to
Speaker 9: feel your game to watch party Wednesday night.
Speaker 3: Stop by one of the thirty plus locations.
Speaker 9: Score delicious pizza and get ready for the playoff. Brian
Speaker 9: order pizza today Carbonispizza dot Com.
Speaker 4: I do love Carbonis. I think that's the reason I
Speaker 4: like football season so much, because I get all the
Speaker 4: Carbonis on the weekends. I didn't I didn't think about that.
Speaker 4: That's money. Maybe I don't even really like football.
Speaker 3: Maybe not.
Speaker 4: I love sports, though, enough to watch a basketball game
Speaker 4: last night and it's entirety.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's dedication.
Speaker 9: That is dedication time now for front paid sports, presented
Speaker 9: by Holiday Station Stars.
Speaker 5: Holiday Station stores buy three monsters for just eight dollars
Speaker 5: for limited time, and you can mix and match any
Speaker 5: flavors you want. Zero Ultra, the juice flavors, the regular ones.
Speaker 2: Dang on, what's this bit juice?
Speaker 5: I like the zero Ultra, but if you like the juice,
Speaker 5: you can get that. You want the juice, I mean,
Speaker 5: I don't I want the Zero Ultra ones. If you
Speaker 5: want the Juice ones. Yeah, okay, then go get the
Speaker 5: juice ones three for eight bucks Monster Energy at Holiday,
Speaker 5: Thanks Holiday.
Speaker 4: There's so many flavors, yeah, which there really are. Yeah.
Speaker 5: The Wolves win Game one against the San Antonio Spurs
Speaker 5: one oh four, one two two. The Wolves up won
Speaker 5: nothing in the Western Conference semi finals and eighteen points
Speaker 5: off the bench in just twenty five minutes.
Speaker 2: Wolves had a what was it like, eight or nine?
Speaker 5: Conley hit that three, and I forget if they went
Speaker 5: up eight or nine, but with about four minutes ago
Speaker 5: they were pulling away and looked like they had it
Speaker 5: locked up, and then the Spurs came kind of charging
Speaker 5: back a couple of late buckets, the dunk by Wenby
Speaker 5: that cut it close, but the Spurs missed a three
Speaker 5: at the buzzer that would have won it, and instead
Speaker 5: the Wolves hold on.
Speaker 3: And win one four one two.
Speaker 5: Truly unbelievable, unbelievable, No Io yet, but again Aunt returned.
Speaker 5: That was the good news. We thought maybe game three
Speaker 5: or four at the best at the earliest. But back
Speaker 5: for Game one just a couple of minutes into the game,
Speaker 5: so again didn't start, came off the bench, but scored
Speaker 5: eighteen points. Game two Wednesday in San Antonio.
Speaker 4: Do you think like they can watch the quote unquote
Speaker 4: film of last night and say, uh, this is what
Speaker 4: we did wrong? And like, was it just overwhelming to them?
Speaker 4: I mean, are because like talent Wives, did we OutKick
Speaker 4: our coverage last night? Are we good enough to beat them?
Speaker 5: No, we're good enough to beat them. But because they're
Speaker 5: again they're very young, they're super good. Wemby's young but
Speaker 5: obviously a freak. Castle's very young, unbelievably good vassal Like
Speaker 5: they have a Kelvin Johnson, they have a lot of youth.
Speaker 5: Dylan Harper very very young. They're just so talented. I mean,
Speaker 5: this team's going to be a problem for the next
Speaker 5: like five to ten years. But maybe. And this is
Speaker 5: what we said before. This isn't even about last night.
Speaker 5: This is what we said before the series started. If
Speaker 5: you want to bank anything, it's that the Wolves have
Speaker 5: been there and done that. They've been there twice to
Speaker 5: the Western Conference finals in the last two years. And
Speaker 5: San Antonio, this is the old cliche in sports. They
Speaker 5: are just ahead of schedule, right, and nobody saw this
Speaker 5: coming except for my dad. Yeah, right, Week one of
Speaker 5: the NBA season my dad says, the Spurs are ready.
Speaker 4: Crazy.
Speaker 2: I'm like, they're thirty five to one. What are you
Speaker 2: talking about? Because are you watching this team? I'm like, no,
Speaker 2: So what's the first week of the NBA? City say,
Speaker 2: I'm telling you.
Speaker 5: So he got him at thirty five to one, and
Speaker 5: the next day I'm like, I'm not gonna let you
Speaker 5: sweat this by yourself. So I got the Spurs at
Speaker 5: thirty to one. So financially I would love the Spurs
Speaker 5: to win the NBA title. Yeah, but this is a
Speaker 5: free role for me and for Pops, right, because, uh, look,
Speaker 5: if the Wolves win, cool, we're in the final four.
Speaker 5: If not, then the Spurs are I would think, four
Speaker 5: games away from winning US money because they just got
Speaker 5: to get past the Thunder.
Speaker 4: Incredible.
Speaker 2: They're ready, though.
Speaker 4: Jade McDaniels, this is what he says about Wimby. You
Speaker 4: just gotta act like he's not there. He's gonna get blocks.
Speaker 4: He's the tallest person in the world.
Speaker 2: Not far from the truth.
Speaker 5: There were so many layups in the first quarter that
Speaker 5: I think Shannon and others just assumed, oh, this is
Speaker 5: wide open. Yeah, and then Wemby comes from about the
Speaker 5: foul line. In about point two two seconds and still
Speaker 5: swats it, so you could tell the Wolves were terrified.
Speaker 5: And the broadcast pointed this out in there one hundred
Speaker 5: percent correct the second that Wenby sits on the bench,
Speaker 5: and he didn't sit on the bench much. He played
Speaker 5: forty minutes. They went right to the rack. Hey, we
Speaker 5: can actually get layups now because the freak's gone.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, he's the tallest man in the world.
Speaker 2: He's the tallest man in the world.
Speaker 4: You know, I was afraid that that Edward's what do
Speaker 4: you call it inbound pass on the turnover, that that
Speaker 4: was going to be the difference maker in the game. Yeah,
Speaker 4: that was going to cost him because I was like,
Speaker 4: I don't you don't see that kind of thing happened
Speaker 4: very much in professional basketball.
Speaker 5: No, how about speaking of turnovers, somebody I think Kriesel
Speaker 5: retweeted this. You see Tarren Shannon played thirty five minutes
Speaker 5: zero turnovers, and I think they said between game six
Speaker 5: of the last series in this zero turnovers, which, again,
Speaker 5: for a young kid playing that many minutes, we're asking
Speaker 5: him to score a lot of points and be the
Speaker 5: offensive force that we saw last night. Zero turnovers. I'm
Speaker 5: surprised he hasn't just completely drped it out of bounds
Speaker 5: like six times, but he hasn't.
Speaker 2: Well, that's super controlled.
Speaker 4: Put that hex on him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think so hexes work.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: If that's the case, there'd be a lot of people
Speaker 5: that don't work here anymore. Hey man, how many people
Speaker 5: still work here for about four Yeah?
Speaker 4: See what you did? The muss the hexes don't know
Speaker 4: if you're just kidding.
Speaker 2: I did that hex in private. I didn't think it
Speaker 2: was gonna work.
Speaker 5: Game two of the Wild and Alf Zachary live from
Speaker 5: Denver tonight is seven o'clock right here on the fan.
Speaker 5: Colorado leads one game to zero. After that nine to
Speaker 5: six game one. It is the only game in the
Speaker 5: NHL tonight Colorado five and oh so far this postseason,
Speaker 5: the Wild are four and three, But we can bounce
Speaker 5: back and then again after tonight, a long, long, lengthy layoff,
Speaker 5: no game until Saturday, Game three in Saint Paul at
Speaker 5: eight o'clock.
Speaker 2: Exact.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 9: We talked to Hines, Tarasenko and Kill yesterday and all
Speaker 9: had kind of similar sentiments where there were mistakes that
Speaker 9: were made in game one that you know, that's the
Speaker 9: bad news. The good news is the mistakes were very fixable,
Speaker 9: and I think, you know, having another day of to
Speaker 9: get ready and to watch some more film, which is
Speaker 9: what they did yesterday, will help them wonders. You know,
Speaker 9: you think about you play the same team six straight
Speaker 9: times and then now a couple days later, you got
Speaker 9: to adjust to the speed of the Colorado Avalanche. It's
Speaker 9: going to take you a bit. But I think after,
Speaker 9: like I said, after some some film, it will be
Speaker 9: a little bit an easier start to game two than
Speaker 9: it was for Game one. Heines would not commit to
Speaker 9: any lineup changes, including the goaltending position, so I still
Speaker 9: think it's overwhelmingly likely that all stead will start, but
Speaker 9: Heines would not commit to saying that yesterday, so maybe
Speaker 9: we'll find out more after morning's skate today. But regardless,
Speaker 9: setting up to be a pretty entertaining Game two, hopefully
Speaker 9: a little bit more normal hockey game today compared to
Speaker 9: what we saw here on Sunday night.
Speaker 2: Hinz On, Sorry, Wally, I'm not worried about Wally.
Speaker 10: You know, he's got a great track record, he's played
Speaker 10: really well, he's got playoff experience, he's got positive playoff experience.
Speaker 10: But I think in general, as we've talked about throughout
Speaker 10: these playoffs, that it's next game. You take the lessons
Speaker 10: out of it, everyone has to reboot, we all have
Speaker 10: to be better, and we're playing it on doing that tomorrow.
Speaker 5: So I heard Russo last night with the Barrero and
Speaker 5: me too. He made a couple of points that I
Speaker 5: hadn't thought of, because again, I'm not a hockey guy,
Speaker 5: so I'm just gonna have to rely on other people
Speaker 5: that know what they're talking about because I don't.
Speaker 2: But he mentioned like.
Speaker 5: If you were going to truly start Gus in game two,
Speaker 5: then you probably should have pulled Walstead at some point
Speaker 5: in game one just to get Gus on the ice
Speaker 5: because it's been three freaking weeks since he's played, And
Speaker 5: that was kind of the other point is even even
Speaker 5: if you're like, all right, we watched the film, Waltston
Speaker 5: was terrible, right, I'm not saying that's the case, but
Speaker 5: I'm saying, if you watch the film and looking Jesus
Speaker 5: is just bad, we got to go to Gus. It's
Speaker 5: been three weeks since he's played. That's really tough to
Speaker 5: put somebody in there after three weeks. So I think
Speaker 5: you kind of hainted at it. Yesterday's acted unless it's
Speaker 5: just an absolute nightmare tonight, and then you would get
Speaker 5: the you know, the break to get Gus ready for Saturday.
Speaker 5: Unless it's an absolute nightmare, you're kind of just stuck
Speaker 5: with Walstead until it just absolutely bottoms out.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, No, I mean it's gonna be I'm sure
Speaker 3: a shorter leash. I guess if you.
Speaker 9: Want to say that, I think he'll he'll be a
Speaker 9: little bit more trigger happy on pulling him tonight if
Speaker 9: it is, if he is giving up those goals that
Speaker 9: that Kadri was talking about the other day. Yeah, I
Speaker 9: don't know if they'll where the red fernd grows him,
Speaker 9: but they'll probably do. I'll probably just put him on
Speaker 9: the bench. Yeah, but yeah, I think it'll be yeah,
Speaker 9: put that.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 9: I don't know why I went to that one, but
Speaker 9: that book scarred me for life.
Speaker 5: How many books did we read in school growing up
Speaker 5: where the dog either gets shot or dies.
Speaker 2: It seemed like every book had dog death. Sometimes.
Speaker 4: I thought like they had us read The Old Man
Speaker 4: in the Sea and they just threw a dead dog
Speaker 4: in there at some point in the version I read,
Speaker 4: just to have it there I.
Speaker 5: Know why, right, Grapes of Wrath, Yeah, thirty dead dogs
Speaker 5: a dog in there?
Speaker 2: Right animal farm or right one?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: And Napoleon just killed dogs.
Speaker 4: We watched the two people who fall in love and
Speaker 4: then take each other out with have show and Juliet.
Speaker 4: We watched that and the version I had had a
Speaker 4: dog dying.
Speaker 2: They poison the dogs first.
Speaker 4: They have to do it. They didn't have guns.
Speaker 3: Dog dies of mice and men.
Speaker 5: Isn't like that's yeah, Lenny just chokes the dog, chokes.
Speaker 4: It right out. Why, Yeah, twelve men in the jury
Speaker 4: box or whatever the hell that show is called. They
Speaker 4: killed dogs, right, That's what the trial was about.
Speaker 5: I believe the original title was just the normal Gatsby
Speaker 5: until he was great at choking dogs.
Speaker 4: But he was best at you ran that dog over
Speaker 4: with the cars.
Speaker 3: It.
Speaker 4: The most important question for you, Zach is how was
Speaker 4: the reporter dinner at the steakhouse last night?
Speaker 3: You know, I didn't. I didn't get the invite.
Speaker 9: Unfortunately, wait a minute, I got an invite to another dinner.
Speaker 9: But I looked at the menu and I'm like, uh.
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna be able to I don't.
Speaker 9: I gotta get more tips from you, Corey and on,
Speaker 9: how like you approach these like fancy dinner places, because
Speaker 9: I'm pretty sure I probably could have gone and just
Speaker 9: eating some chips or something.
Speaker 3: But it's always bread.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you get bread, and then you and once you're
Speaker 5: twenty one and you're what thirty one one? Uh yeah,
Speaker 5: you just drink and then you and then you do
Speaker 5: what every you know, childish eater does after a fancy
Speaker 5: deal dinner or meal. You just have some kind of
Speaker 5: raising canes uber eat it to your hotel room. Man,
Speaker 5: you just door dash it.
Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, yeah, they're too far away, though, here
Speaker 9: is it gonna be a fifty five minute wait for
Speaker 9: a door dash from canes last night? And I'm like,
Speaker 9: ain't nobody got time for that?
Speaker 2: Of course you do. There's always bread, Yeah, there's always
Speaker 2: breaded fancy.
Speaker 4: That's it.
Speaker 2: Wait, there was there was a true reporters also.
Speaker 4: Took all the reporters to a giant steakhouse last night,
Speaker 4: both teams for I guess all of the reporter people
Speaker 4: everybody was in for reporting. He took everybody. They all
Speaker 4: went to some fancy steakhouse.
Speaker 5: On the athletics tab or his tab, I would guess
Speaker 5: on the probably Eric.
Speaker 3: Johnson's tab, I think because he a guitar player.
Speaker 4: Did close with dover.
Speaker 9: Some I'm like, yesess exactly. Yeah, I heard Russa inviting
Speaker 9: all the reporters up. Like I just felt like I
Speaker 9: was back in middle school again.
Speaker 5: I'm here, isn't Eric Johnson Jessica Simpson's former husband too?
Speaker 2: Wasn't that his name?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: He got around.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ahead and google it and see if
Speaker 2: I'm right. I thought it was something like that Jessica Simpson.
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm not gonna be mad at myself for
Speaker 5: googling her anyway.
Speaker 9: That's a good point.
Speaker 2: I don't know why I care, but now it's too late.
Speaker 2: Now I have to look it up. It was Eric Johnson.
Speaker 5: Yeah, married twenty fourteen through September of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: Nick Lachet first, Eric Johnson second, whatever.
Speaker 4: Well done? Look at you?
Speaker 2: Yep? What were we talking about again?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got you got invited to Stea Dinners.
Speaker 4: He did not get invited to the stake Denver. Now
Speaker 4: he got invited to the other one other place.
Speaker 2: So what was the other one? Like Wild Employees and
Speaker 2: another one? Why don't you go to that one?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 9: I got social anxiety, and I don't think I got
Speaker 9: anything enough or anything fancy enough to wear hair. Honestly,
Speaker 9: I don't know if a quarters that would have been
Speaker 9: good enough at this place.
Speaker 5: Of course, what what are they gonna do now to
Speaker 5: invite you back? It's in Denver.
Speaker 4: I went to a strip club with some people a
Speaker 4: long time ago that I didn't want to go there with,
Speaker 4: just to hang out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, my very first trips. So what did you get
Speaker 2: to eat?
Speaker 3: Then?
Speaker 2: What'd you eat?
Speaker 9: My Giano's little Italy whatever that is, I don't know.
Speaker 9: I got, uh, went Italian last night, so it was
Speaker 9: that was all right? Yeah, it wasn't the Italian Rosie
Speaker 9: was enjoying.
Speaker 2: That was the best ever had.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I tried to get a picture with the with the chef.
Speaker 9: But he didn't want to deliver the food with him,
Speaker 9: so I had to have to go there next tomorrow.
Speaker 4: Maybe so many people sending me direct messages trying to
Speaker 4: identify the person with the krusty fingernails yesterday and nobody
Speaker 4: guessed correctly. But I was like, how many places have
Speaker 4: people handing food through the window with terrible fingernails? There's
Speaker 4: that should be a put gloves on. If you got
Speaker 4: krusty fingernails, don't hand me my food. I'm gonna be
Speaker 4: able to eat. That is it happening everywhere these days?
Speaker 2: I don't think so. Fingernails, You know, it's crazy.
Speaker 5: If you had not seen that, you would have eaten it,
Speaker 5: and it would have been ignorance is bliss.
Speaker 2: You wouldn't have cared yep.
Speaker 4: And I'd be like, why is my belly sick today?
Speaker 5: So from now on, just hold your left hand out
Speaker 5: the driver's side window and just look straight ahead like
Speaker 5: it's a baton relay.
Speaker 4: Punch the gas.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just just.
Speaker 5: Say put it in my hand, and then don't look
Speaker 5: at their fingernails, don't look at their general cleanliness.
Speaker 2: Just take it and go. Yeah, you'll be fine.
Speaker 4: Yeah, trust the guy. If you'd say, just put it
Speaker 4: in my hand, though, put it in my hand. I
Speaker 4: didn't order a hot dog, right, Derek, Uh.

Speaker 4: celebrating a big Wolves win last night, and Julius Randall,
Speaker 4: who I believe Leonard team in scoring last night, was
Speaker 4: talking about Ant glowingly after the game.
Speaker 3: Huge huge.
Speaker 7: I mean for him to go out and do what
Speaker 7: he did and just his just ability to just bounce
Speaker 7: back and you know, give us whatever he had out there.
Speaker 2: It was huge.
Speaker 7: So he made a lot of big shots just super happy,
Speaker 7: super proud to have him back because you know what.
Speaker 3: He brings to the game.
Speaker 4: Yeah that was pretty cool man, Good for you, well done,
Speaker 4: dude needed him. Yeah, yeah, that's cool. I think. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Without Ant, I just I don't think this team is
Speaker 5: enough to beat the San Antonio Spurs in a seven
Speaker 5: game series. But he's back, and they showed it last
Speaker 5: night when he's on the court, he can be the
Speaker 5: best player on the planet at times.
Speaker 2: So Rosie gets it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he gets it.
Speaker 5: He gets the best meals he's ever had in Italy,
Speaker 5: and he gets it and has the potential to be great.
Speaker 5: So yeah, no, the San Antonio has got to be
Speaker 5: super pissed that he's back as fast.
Speaker 2: As he is.
Speaker 4: Let me say this, Amon, let me say this about
Speaker 4: Rosie real quick. I just said this to the REACH kids.
Speaker 4: Yestery had an event thanks to our friends at Bell Bank.
Speaker 4: You're from the Bell Bank Studios over there right now,
Speaker 4: and we hosted a bunch of kids from the Reach
Speaker 4: Foundation over there yesterday and Misty and everybody. It was
Speaker 4: just so great and played games with him and showed
Speaker 4: him around what a real bank is like, and then
Speaker 4: they went roller skating and Saint clud It's a great time.
Speaker 4: And one of the things that they were asking me
Speaker 4: questions about my life, and we were talking about going
Speaker 4: to California, said you know, get some good food, eat
Speaker 4: things you've never eaten before, stuff like that, And I said,
Speaker 4: I'll never forget the first time I went to California.
Speaker 4: I was sixteen years old and my grandma couldn't get
Speaker 4: on a plane on the plane because she got sick
Speaker 4: and there was an empty plane ticket, and everybody's like,
Speaker 4: who wants to go? And I was like, I'll go.
Speaker 4: And back then you could just get on the plane
Speaker 4: because you had a ticket. They didn't check your idea.
Speaker 4: I didn't have id right whatever. Anyway, I get to
Speaker 4: California and I had the best tacos I've ever had
Speaker 4: in my life from a fast food joint called Noggles Tacos.
Speaker 4: And the reason it was so good wasn't because the
Speaker 4: food was so good. Maybe it was good, but I
Speaker 4: was staying in California with my cousin in the place
Speaker 4: I'd never been before, and I was like, this is real.
Speaker 4: And I mean, you know what I mean. I think
Speaker 4: if you had given Rosie Salisbury steak from a TV
Speaker 4: dinner when he was in Italy, he might have said
Speaker 4: it was the best dinner of his life, you know
Speaker 4: what I mean. It's all about your surroundings and where
Speaker 4: you're at and the mood you're in and how I mean.
Speaker 4: Don't get me wrong, if it tastes like dog turns,
Speaker 4: it tastes like dog turs. But if it tastes good,
Speaker 4: it's also about the surroundings.
Speaker 5: And it also matters if you have Wi Fi to
Speaker 5: post that on social media.
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter if you care about whether people know
Speaker 4: you ate it or not. That is true.
Speaker 2: So yesterday, I'm one of our bosses.
Speaker 5: I'm not going to say which one that, but it's
Speaker 5: the one that has a really rough time walking.
Speaker 4: Yeah, how is that it?
Speaker 2: He was like, man, you guys are being pretty hard
Speaker 2: on Rosie.
Speaker 5: He's like, you know, like look, he goes, Look, I
Speaker 5: like ripping Rosie as much in the next guy.
Speaker 2: He goes, you guys are being pretty tough.
Speaker 5: And I'm like, I'll tell Hawk and Sauce to calm
Speaker 5: down because I don't know why there's so tough on him.
Speaker 5: He thought you guys were over the line yesterday, and
Speaker 5: I didn't disagree.
Speaker 4: Here's the problem with that. Is it better to do
Speaker 4: it on the air or in your office when he's
Speaker 4: not there? So that's the question.
Speaker 2: I don't know, man, I mean, just leave the guy alone.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll try to be better about it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll try, you know, like when you eat the
Speaker 5: way that I do. And Zach can relate to this
Speaker 5: a little bit as well. It's hard to say quote
Speaker 5: this is the best meal I've ever had, because I
Speaker 5: have the same meal all the time. Right, That's why
Speaker 5: once in a while it's like, Wow, this is the
Speaker 5: best ice cream I've ever had, or that's the best
Speaker 5: cinnamon role I've ever had. Because meals, it's like, yeah,
Speaker 5: is this cane? I go to canes and it's the best.
Speaker 5: So how do you have the best canes you've ever had?
Speaker 5: It's been fantastic a thousand times.
Speaker 2: What do I care?
Speaker 4: But I bet that canes might be even better if
Speaker 4: you ate it at the top of Mount kiliman Jar.
Speaker 2: Again, how's my WiFi?
Speaker 5: Can I post my no slaw extra toast so everybody
Speaker 5: knows that I had canes on the top of the mountain.
Speaker 4: That's right at the mountain.
Speaker 3: Is that why the food in Vegas tastes so much better?
Speaker 3: Like the canes in Vegas? Maybe?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 3: Oh man, I always thought they just made it better there?
Speaker 3: How about they?
Speaker 2: How about like what Ben always talks about?
Speaker 5: And he's right, there's something about vacation coffee that you're like,
Speaker 5: this coffee just hits differently when you're walking on a
Speaker 5: beach or you're in some foreign city.
Speaker 2: It's just the best, completely It's just still coffee.
Speaker 5: Right, French coffee tastes the same as coffee in Toma.
Speaker 2: What's the difference?
Speaker 3: And beans?
Speaker 1: No matter what?
Speaker 2: Who cares? It's all about your attitude.
Speaker 4: That's right. It's where you're at and how you feeling
Speaker 4: that day? Well, you got enough sleep that night?
Speaker 2: And how's the Wi Fi?
Speaker 5: No again, nobody ever posts pictures in Toma because they
Speaker 5: don't have Wi Fi. They have fifty six k that
Speaker 5: You're not going to sit there and plug in at
Speaker 5: a at a gas station so you can post. That's
Speaker 5: not that's not a thing. You gotta wait till you
Speaker 5: get back to civilization like Chicago or Minneapolis.
Speaker 2: All right, you ready to do what matters?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Ross by Ovo, Lasik and lens Go get Lasik from
Speaker 5: doctor Mark Lobanof and doctor David Whiting with Ovo, Lasik
Speaker 5: and Lenz. Thanks Ovo, thank you. All right, let's go
Speaker 5: way off the board. I know it's playoff season. The
Speaker 5: Wolves had a big win last night. The Wild play tonight.
Speaker 2: We get it. How about this out of nowhere?
Speaker 5: How about uh world number one golfer Scotty Scheffler has
Speaker 5: committed to play the three Am Open.
Speaker 2: How about that coming out yesterday July.
Speaker 5: Twenty third through the twenty six that TPC twin Cities
Speaker 5: in Blaine, Scotty Scheffler coming to Minnesota.
Speaker 4: Does that do anything for you?
Speaker 5: I mean, it doesn't do anything for me. But my
Speaker 5: guess is the golfing community super pumped.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 2: You like to sell some tickets, It definitely will sell
Speaker 2: some tickets.
Speaker 4: Like Delernard Junior Racing at Elco. I go see that.
Speaker 2: Sure, Yeah, if you're in a golf that's a giant story.
Speaker 4: Pretty cool.
Speaker 2: What really matters, though, is this.
Speaker 4: I'm trying to think of other things that are similar
Speaker 4: to that, but I can't think of any. I like,
Speaker 4: the dealer in our junior come to Delco. There we go.
Speaker 4: It's not happening. By the way, I'm not reporting that
Speaker 4: that's happening.
Speaker 5: I'm just saying that would be like if Simone Biles
Speaker 5: went to Urban Air, I'd be like, yeah, I'll go
Speaker 5: watch your jump on tram for sure.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Absolutely. Yeah. By nineteen forty seven, nearly half of all
Speaker 4: US college students were World War Two veterans using the
Speaker 4: GI bill. Let me say that again. By nineteen forty seven,
Speaker 4: nearly half of all US college students were World War
Speaker 4: II veterans, using the GI Bill, which massively, of course,
Speaker 4: expanded access to higher paying jobs and helped grow the
Speaker 4: middle class.
Speaker 2: Hey, it worked, it did man.
Speaker 4: Matter if they were like, this is what we're gonna do,
Speaker 4: or if they were like, wow, look what happened? You
Speaker 4: know what I mean? Sure, like the GF bill, Like
Speaker 4: did they know that was what was going to expand
Speaker 4: the middle class? Or was that like a happy coincidence?
Speaker 2: Maybe a little column ad a little economy.
Speaker 5: There's some dude that pops up on my Instagram algorithm
Speaker 5: once in a while. I don't follow him, but now
Speaker 5: I've watched so many of his videos now that Instagram
Speaker 5: Instagram is just convinced that I like the content. That's
Speaker 5: the double sword, a double edge sword that we always
Speaker 5: talk about, right, It's like if you hover too long,
Speaker 5: then it thinks that you like it. But I've watched
Speaker 5: enough of this guy's videos. He's basically like a financial advisor,
Speaker 5: and he gives you advice and he talks about different
Speaker 5: things in the world of finance and investing in whatever business. Right,
Speaker 5: And he was talking about how little the school that
Speaker 5: you go to matters, and he said what I've kind
Speaker 5: of always said is that it only really matters the
Speaker 5: first you get. After that, it's irrelevant, right like, after that,
Speaker 5: it's your track record in your actual field or your profession.
Speaker 2: It might get you in the door for your very
Speaker 2: first job, sir.
Speaker 5: Can you imagine, like if you've been in an industry
Speaker 5: for ten years and you've done well and you're going
Speaker 5: the right way and you're like at a job interview
Speaker 5: and they're like, Wow, you've been killing it, like for
Speaker 5: the last ten years, it looks like you would fit
Speaker 5: into this company.
Speaker 3: Great.
Speaker 2: Where'd you go to school?
Speaker 5: University of Minnesota? Oh, I'm sorry, we wanted somebody from
Speaker 5: the Ivy League. Yeah, but I've crushed it in the
Speaker 5: actual job that you're asking me to do for the
Speaker 5: last ten years. Yeah, but you went to Minnesota though,
Speaker 5: that's not going to work, Like, that's just not a thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it only might matter once.
Speaker 10: You know.
Speaker 4: What's interesting about that is I heard a very interesting
Speaker 4: quote the other day. I can't stop thinking about.
Speaker 3: This.
Speaker 4: Gentleman. Is Harvard Believe a theologist? I believe is what
Speaker 4: you would call him. But he's a professor, good looking dude, no, h,
Speaker 4: I answered that very quickly. Yeah, because I didn't think
Speaker 4: about it. I just answered the truth. Sure, And the
Speaker 4: truth is no, he's not an attractive man.
Speaker 3: But he was saying about it.
Speaker 4: But even I wouldn't do that to you, Zach, because
Speaker 4: I want you to think about this and not how
Speaker 4: unattractive the man saying it is. Now, that's all I
Speaker 4: can think of is now I've called that man attractive.
Speaker 4: I feel bad about it. But anyway, listen to this.
Speaker 4: This is the truth he said this. He goes, uh,
Speaker 4: you know.
Speaker 9: You can.
Speaker 4: You can go to school and read and get as
Speaker 4: educated as you can. You should do that because vocabulary matters,
Speaker 4: Like the most dangerous weapon you have is your vocabulary.
Speaker 4: You need to be able to talk to somebody. He said.
Speaker 4: You're born with your IQ. You can improve it a
Speaker 4: little bit here and there. But you have an IQ
Speaker 4: and another person has their IQ. And if you have
Speaker 4: an IQ of one thirty another person has an IQ
Speaker 4: of seventy, there's no doubt you're going to win that argument.
Speaker 10: Right.
Speaker 4: No matter how much that person with the IQ of
Speaker 4: seventy works on his he's gonna get little bit smarter,
Speaker 4: but he's still going to not have.
Speaker 2: That one hundred and thirty IQ be back tomorrow, by
Speaker 2: the way.
Speaker 4: Correct, that's right. But then he said this and it
Speaker 4: sticks in my mind. I love it, and he goes.
Speaker 4: But the thing about being having a high AQ, the
Speaker 4: thing about having a high i Q that can really
Speaker 4: get you in trouble is just because you can win
Speaker 4: an argument doesn't mean you're.
Speaker 2: Right again, SAWC will be back tomorrow, right.
Speaker 4: Isn't that an odd think about that? Though? Just because
Speaker 4: you can win the argument doesn't mean you're right. You've
Speaker 4: got to keep that in mind.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and debating is a skill, There's no doubt about it.
Speaker 2: There's no doubt about it.
Speaker 5: Look at across sports radio and especially sports TV, a
Speaker 5: lot of those argument shows. They're just really good debaters, right,
Speaker 5: I don't know if they're right.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 2: I can't stand those shows anymore. And you might have
Speaker 2: you might have it twenty years ago.
Speaker 4: You might have somebody who's an extrovert and somebody who's
Speaker 4: an introvert, and the extroverts probably going to win the
Speaker 4: argument just because of their ability to out yell the
Speaker 4: other person, you know, their ability to put themselves out
Speaker 4: in front of people and do it. But that doesn't
Speaker 4: necessarily mean they're side of the argument was right.
Speaker 5: Well, how about presidential debates over the the last one
Speaker 5: hundred years or so, especially Kennedy and beyond. What matters,
Speaker 5: almost more than the actual policy is just the presentation.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 5: Good public speakers can win just by sounding confident regardless
Speaker 5: of what they're saying.
Speaker 4: I mean, you point out the most obvious one. JFK
Speaker 4: won that debate because Nixon was sweating, right, and people
Speaker 4: thought he looked nervous.
Speaker 2: And people on the radio thought Nixon won.
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, and that's something.
Speaker 2: People that watch you thought Kennedy won.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Just because you can win the argument doesn't mean
Speaker 4: you're right, and that's important for you to remember. Even
Speaker 4: if you won the argument, you got to listen to
Speaker 4: what the other person's saying.
Speaker 2: You have to.
Speaker 5: But what if the other person is just saying things
Speaker 5: like tonight's game will be fun. I like basketball. I
Speaker 5: want to watch the game tonight. It'll be fun. Right,
Speaker 5: I have to win that argument, but you also can
Speaker 5: maybe be nicer to him because you realize what his home.
Speaker 4: Life must be like.
Speaker 2: So also, be back tomorrow.
Speaker 3: Is it my turn?
Speaker 4: I don't know, I think so?
Speaker 5: Yeah, what else here.
Speaker 2: The Twins were off yesterday.
Speaker 5: They are at Washington tonight at five forty five. Taj
Speaker 5: Bradley for the Minnesota Twins. It's kind of a weird
Speaker 5: matchup if you're watching baseball, because the Twins are fifteen
Speaker 5: and twenty.
Speaker 2: They're five and ten on the road, so terrible on
Speaker 2: the road.
Speaker 5: Washington is a little bit better at sixteen and nineteen,
Speaker 5: but four and twelve at home. So the Twins can't
Speaker 5: win on the road and Washington can't win at home.
Speaker 5: So something has to break tonight in Washington. But what
Speaker 5: really matters is this.
Speaker 4: Well, we're talking about Washington yesterday. Why do we ask
Speaker 4: if people had ever been to DC? Do you remember?
Speaker 4: I know we said that, like and you said you'd
Speaker 4: never been to DC? Why were we bringing that up? No,
Speaker 4: it's about just places you wanted to go or something.
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: I don't remember time.
Speaker 3: I think it might have started as simple as core
Speaker 3: as what state DC is.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's right, that is exactly how it started.
Speaker 5: As we were playing exactly because Washington was on the schedule.
Speaker 5: It was the Twins are off today. They played Washington
Speaker 5: tomorrow because was yesterday, and I tried to see if
Speaker 5: Sauce would say something stupid. I said, what state is
Speaker 5: Washington then? And he said it's it's not a state.
Speaker 5: I'm like, okay, well again, he'll be back tomorrow.
Speaker 4: Nicholas Cage, one of our great actors. I do like
Speaker 4: him a lot, was never paid one hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 4: he was promised to start, and he was promised to
Speaker 4: start in Las Vegas, leaving Las Vegas in nineteen ninety five.
Speaker 4: He did win the Academy Award. Director Mike Figus was
Speaker 4: also never paid his on hundred thousand dollars salary. The
Speaker 4: studio said the film never made a profit, even though
Speaker 4: the four million dollar movie grows thirty two million dollars.
Speaker 2: I have a lot of questions me too.
Speaker 4: I would I don't know why Nicholas Cage.
Speaker 2: Doesn't have a lot of question sounds like a lawsuit. Yeah,
Speaker 2: of course, I.
Speaker 4: Guess maybe one hundred thousand dollars to him isn't enough
Speaker 4: for him to spend the money for the lawyer to
Speaker 4: go get it. But I don't know. I'd maybe i'd
Speaker 4: see him. I'd say, well, you owe me a hundred thousand,
Speaker 4: and you owe me interest of fourteen million.
Speaker 5: Dollars, because what are the chances that both of them
Speaker 5: had in their contents that they didn't get paid if
Speaker 5: the movie wasn't profitable. My guess is they both were like,
Speaker 5: well we're getting I'm getting a check either way. A
Speaker 5: lot of those movies right when we hear like Keanu
Speaker 5: Reeves took a back end deal and he makes like
Speaker 5: two hundred million dollars in the matrix or something. Don't
Speaker 5: don't most of them at least take a small salary
Speaker 5: with a huge back end deal.
Speaker 2: I would guess I don't think they're working for free
Speaker 2: with a back end deal.
Speaker 4: So I don't think so.
Speaker 5: I mean, maybe if maybe the biggest of the big
Speaker 5: have swung and said give me a percentage, I'm going
Speaker 5: to bet on myself I'll take a zero dollars salary.
Speaker 5: But I would assume that Nicholas Cage, when he was
Speaker 5: at that point in his career, was not big enough
Speaker 5: to say I'm working for free.
Speaker 4: What's the dude's name who did Star Wars?
Speaker 2: George Lucas.
Speaker 4: Didn't George Lucas do that last movie? He did for nothing?
Speaker 4: And like you pay for it himself and lost his.
Speaker 2: A word I don't know. Maybe which one was that?
Speaker 4: The movie I think started with an M like Metropolitan,
Speaker 4: or maybe it.
Speaker 2: Was Metropolis, was somebody else?
Speaker 10: No that was.
Speaker 4: Whoever did it did it on their own dime and
Speaker 4: lost their A word strange magic, No, it's called Metropolis. Yeah,
Speaker 4: hang on a second here, strange man. Yeah, that movie
Speaker 4: bombed bad. Had the guy who was in Girls in it?
Speaker 4: A kid who did Matrial. It wasn't George Lucas. Maybe No,
Speaker 4: I don't know the hell was. I know a little
Speaker 4: bit about a bunch of things that I'm half right on.
Speaker 4: Most of it.
Speaker 2: Me Tropolis, nineteen twenty seven movie called Metropolis. Maybe we're
Speaker 2: slightly off. Is there a different movie that's similarly named Megalopolis?
Speaker 4: Move movies?
Speaker 2: Maybe? I don't know.
Speaker 5: If only there was a website, well looking, we could look.
Speaker 5: Yeah it is Megalopolis. That was twenty twenty four. That
Speaker 5: was Coppola.
Speaker 4: Oh that's it, that's the one. Yeah, spent his own
Speaker 4: money and lost his a jeez.
Speaker 5: This says, This says the budget was between a hundred
Speaker 5: twenty and one hundred and thirty six million, and it
Speaker 5: made fourteen point four at the box office.
Speaker 2: Whoopsiees tough. Let me double check this.
Speaker 5: Here.
Speaker 4: The still shots look fantastic. I remember the trailer looked cool,
Speaker 4: but I never went to see it.
Speaker 5: Rotten Tomatoes mister Z's favorite website, forty five percent. Yeah,
Speaker 5: well yeah yeah, and the audience also hated it. Average
Speaker 5: grade of D plus. Yeah yeah. Adam Driver, guy's great.
Speaker 4: That's the kid I'm talking about.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was in Girls exactly fantastic.
Speaker 3: Kyler run himself.
Speaker 5: Yeah, my turn again, I believe. So the Packers signed
Speaker 5: a quarterback. Obviously, Jordan Love is their starter, but the
Speaker 5: thirty six year old Tyrod Taylor is going to be
Speaker 5: their backup. Now Malik Willis went to Miami. Here's your
Speaker 5: here's your interesting sports stat of the day. I want
Speaker 5: you guys to try this. Tyrod Taylor's thirty six years old.
Speaker 5: He was a sixth round pick in twenty eleven, twenty eleven.
Speaker 5: How many players from the twenty eleven NFL draft class,
Speaker 5: including Tyrod.
Speaker 2: Taylor are still active fifteen years ago?
Speaker 5: How many active players from the twenty eleven draft class? I?
Speaker 4: Oh, man, maybe three?
Speaker 3: Zach?
Speaker 2: You want to take a shot.
Speaker 9: I mean yeah, I was thinking single that it's two.
Speaker 5: I'll go eight right in between the two of you.
Speaker 5: He's one of five players still active from twenty eleven.
Speaker 4: Wow, incredible, Tyron, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5: Twenty eleven doesn't feel that long ago, but it is
Speaker 5: fifteen years.
Speaker 4: Backup quarterback man.
Speaker 2: Tell you what, he's made a lot of money.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's I mean, good for them, right, He's had
Speaker 5: a lot of moments where he was a really really
Speaker 5: solid quarterback.
Speaker 2: I know the name, right, he keeps kidd a job right.
Speaker 5: More of what really matters after this. The Wolves won
Speaker 5: last night against San Antonio. Marni Gellner here in about
Speaker 5: eighteen minutes. This is the Power Trim money Join the Fan.

Speaker 4: That's right, and Ronza Moss needs they need to announce
Speaker 4: to her that she missed a couple three days there
Speaker 4: for her Sports update. That's a few days ago that
Speaker 4: she was talking about, right her in the Sports Update.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she was talking about, Yeah, Joe Ryan leaving the game.
Speaker 2: That was like a couple of days ago, us or
Speaker 2: Joey Jojoe. Everything's going great, it really is.
Speaker 4: We had it out, figured out what really matters.
Speaker 5: But here's what really matters, scores and stats around the
Speaker 5: world of sports, Crystal change of life with something else
Speaker 5: that's more interesting, although it's hard to be more interesting
Speaker 5: than this because the Wolves are up one game to
Speaker 5: zero after beating the Spurs last night one oh four
Speaker 5: to one oh two. And yes, we found out yesterday
Speaker 5: that and was definitely going to play. We just weren't
Speaker 5: sure how much he played twenty five minutes, came off
Speaker 5: the bench, played great, eighteen points, looked dominant for most
Speaker 5: of his time on the court.
Speaker 2: It was awesome. So Wemby was a freak. He had
Speaker 2: twelve blocks.
Speaker 5: That is the all time NBA record for a postseason game.
Speaker 5: But the Wolves overcome that stifling defense in the paint.
Speaker 5: They find a way to win. Didn't help that we
Speaker 5: missed so many free throws, but maybe we can fix
Speaker 5: that for game two. But it also did help that
Speaker 5: san Antonio was not great from three, including at the buzzer.
Speaker 5: Nas reed kind of bit on the pump fake. So
Speaker 5: Spurs had a wide open three at the buzzer that
Speaker 5: would have won it, but it clanks off the rim.
Speaker 2: And the Wolves hold on and win by two one
Speaker 2: oh four to one o two. But what really matters
Speaker 2: is this.
Speaker 4: That's right look up on your computer, whether you're listening
Speaker 4: live or later on. Gregor g R E G O R.
Speaker 4: Last name Bachi b A c I.
Speaker 2: Gregor Bacci got it.
Speaker 4: Sixteenth century painting Cheez by an Austrian painter shows Gregor Bacci,
Speaker 4: who was struck by a lance in his right eye
Speaker 4: socket yep, went all the way through his head and
Speaker 4: out the back of his neck. Yep, and he lived
Speaker 4: for a year. They saw it off the front and
Speaker 4: the back of the lance, and he lived for a year.
Speaker 4: There's a very famous painting once owned.
Speaker 2: By He doesn't care for it.
Speaker 4: He doesn't. He didn't like it. I bet no once
Speaker 4: owned by Archduke Ferdinand who had listened to do with
Speaker 4: one if I remember correctly anyway, and people I have
Speaker 4: long debated whether or not anyone could have lived through that,
Speaker 4: And of course science has gotten better to the point
Speaker 4: where neurologists at the Medical University of Nsbrouk have now
Speaker 4: determined he could certainly have lived like that, as long
Speaker 4: as it did not strike parts of his brain. And
Speaker 4: so they looked at the painting, they did a you know,
Speaker 4: some rebuilds computer wise, and found out that it definitely
Speaker 4: could have passed through his eye socket and out the
Speaker 4: back of his neck the way that it looks like
Speaker 4: it did in this painting and lived. He lived for
Speaker 4: a year.
Speaker 2: It all back then.
Speaker 5: It's not like they had cell phones where he could
Speaker 5: take selfies and see what you looked at it looked like.
Speaker 5: So when he saw that painting, he must have been like,
Speaker 5: is that what I look like? I'm hideous? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: you have a joust through your eyeball. Yeah, it's coming
Speaker 5: off the back of your skull. You're lucky it missed
Speaker 5: your brain.
Speaker 4: Yeah. It was thought at first that it was from
Speaker 4: a joust. They now believe that it happened from a
Speaker 4: throwing beer in the fifty ninety eight Siege of guy
Speaker 4: or So he got it and.
Speaker 5: Yeah, according to this the perpetrator was Lamar Latrell.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that limpress and thrown style really got him Tryland. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and this guy didn't want to be killed by a
Speaker 4: guy named Lamar Latrelle so badly that he willed himself
Speaker 4: to stay alive so he could say that guy didn't
Speaker 4: kill me.
Speaker 5: Nope, just died of old age. I died of old
Speaker 5: age a year later with a jowist or a javelin
Speaker 5: stile through his eyeball.
Speaker 4: Man, imagine that I do. Like how his left eye
Speaker 4: is also bulging and bleeding.
Speaker 5: Yeah, in the painting, they definitely have blood coming out
Speaker 5: of every single orifice of this guy.
Speaker 2: So that's that's as off.
Speaker 3: Watch.
Speaker 4: Yeah, if I throw if I threw a spirit gregor
Speaker 4: and it went through him and he kept walking towards me,
Speaker 4: I'd be like, I'm just gonna go ahead and take
Speaker 4: myself out because obviously the debtor living I can't beat you.
Speaker 2: How about the guy's haircut too?
Speaker 5: A haircut, it's just straight little mohawk thing going on there.
Speaker 2: Way before the punk Revolution. Yeah, what a badass.
Speaker 4: Well done, Gregor, well done.
Speaker 2: I wonder what he did for that year?
Speaker 5: Do you think he do you think he had adult
Speaker 5: relations at any point in that final year?
Speaker 4: Well, I sure hope.
Speaker 2: So I'm just saying, because think of that, Gal, Yeah,
Speaker 2: like that's the best I can do. I'll take the
Speaker 2: guy with the javelin through his face. Yeah yeah, I
Speaker 2: mean as a hero.
Speaker 4: You know, like you you're sick, and uh, something distracts
Speaker 4: you and you forget for a minute that you're sick.
Speaker 4: You think he had one moment, one minute that entire
Speaker 4: year where he forgot he had a javelin through his head,
Speaker 4: just one moment where everything was so like the sunset
Speaker 4: was so beautiful that he completely spaced. Oh yeah, that's right.
Speaker 4: I've got a spear in my head.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's maybe the pain has subsided.
Speaker 5: And yeah, he's walking along like a river bank and
Speaker 5: he's just like you said, birds are chirping, suns out,
Speaker 5: it's just peaceful.
Speaker 2: And he just forgets for a second yep. And then
Speaker 2: I don't know where and he's like, oh god, damn,
Speaker 2: I forgot about the javelin.
Speaker 4: Man, I mean, how did he sleep? Where did he
Speaker 4: lay his head.
Speaker 2: Oh, well, how do you live on a bed of roses?
Speaker 4: And did he just wander around? I wondered, did he
Speaker 4: and did he die of an infection?
Speaker 2: Because damn, I don't know. It's a good question.
Speaker 4: I have a lot of questions about young Greg Orbachi.
Speaker 2: This story doesn't say how long he lived in terms
Speaker 2: of age. Do you know how old he was? He
Speaker 2: says he died a year after the injury.
Speaker 4: Oh, it says.
Speaker 5: The Knicks dominated last night one thirty seven to ninety
Speaker 5: eight over the Sixers. Cat was seventeen bruns and with
Speaker 5: thirty five the New York Knicks up one to zero.
Speaker 4: Are they any good like? Are they a danger on
Speaker 4: the East Side?
Speaker 5: I think they're the ool. They're close to the favorites
Speaker 5: to win the East. I know that people like the
Speaker 5: Pistons as well, because the Pistons were dominant in the
Speaker 5: regular season, But it's a little bit like the Spurs
Speaker 5: and the Wolves. The Knicks have been there and done that.
Speaker 5: The Pistons are young and upcoming, so maybe the Knicks eventually,
Speaker 5: maybe they're veteran leadership can can wield their way.
Speaker 2: I would take the Knicks over the Pistons, but we'll see.
Speaker 4: So there's a chance that's get me the big cat
Speaker 4: in the final.
Speaker 5: If we can find a way to get past Wemby
Speaker 5: and okay, see yeah, it could be.
Speaker 2: Could be cat versus ant. Wow, could be that's gonna
Speaker 2: be big. What really matters, though, is this.
Speaker 4: You know, if you look up a guy who has
Speaker 4: a spear piercing his head, you're also going to find
Speaker 4: stories like this one and a tally Bergowski. In nineteen
Speaker 4: seventy eight, the Russian Russian particle physicist, had a high
Speaker 4: energy proton beam from a particle accelerator passed through his head.
Speaker 4: He was working for the Russians checking a malfunctioning piece
Speaker 4: of equipment when, of course, the safety mechanisms failed. Breskowski
Speaker 4: was leaning over the equipment when he stuck his head
Speaker 4: in the path of the proton beam.
Speaker 2: Interesting never crossed the streams.
Speaker 4: He reportedly saw a flash of light brighter than a
Speaker 4: thousand suns, but didn't feel any pain. The beam passed
Speaker 4: through the back of his head, the occipital and temporal
Speaker 4: lobes of his brain, the left middle ear. It pierced
Speaker 4: the occipital and temporal lobes, and his left middle ear
Speaker 4: and went out the left side of his nose. The
Speaker 4: exposed parts of his head received a local dose of
Speaker 4: two hundred to three hundred thousand roun gins. I don't
Speaker 4: know what the hell those things are. He understood the
Speaker 4: severity of what had happened, but he continued working on
Speaker 4: the malfunctioned piece of equipment because he's like, well, I'm
Speaker 4: here anyway, right, Sure, the fan belt chopped my fingers up,
Speaker 4: but I've got to make sure the cars run it. Initially,
Speaker 4: he opted not to tell anybody what happened.
Speaker 2: He's embarrassed.
Speaker 4: Doctors expected him to die, but he survived with severe
Speaker 4: non fatal injuries. The left half, the left half of
Speaker 4: Burgovsky's face swelled up beyond recognition, and over the next
Speaker 4: several days, the skin started the peel, revealing the path
Speaker 4: that the proton beam had burned through parts of his
Speaker 4: face and his bone and his brain tissue. Never do science,
Speaker 4: as it was believed, and right as it was believed
Speaker 4: that he had received far in excess of a fatal
Speaker 4: dose of radiation. Burgoski was taken to a clinic and
Speaker 4: then they wanted to watch him die, because that's what
Speaker 4: you do.
Speaker 2: Gotta observe, right, hell's.
Speaker 4: Gonna happen to this guy? Well, there was virtually no
Speaker 4: damage to his intellectual capacity. Burgosky survived. He completed his
Speaker 4: PhD and continued working as a particle physicist.
Speaker 2: But his face terrible.
Speaker 4: He completely lost hearing in his left ear, which he
Speaker 4: had tonights in that ear, which I that's bad. On
Speaker 4: the left half of his face was paralyzed. He was
Speaker 4: able to function well except for occasional partial seizures and
Speaker 4: rare tonic clonic seizures. The paralyzed out of his face
Speaker 4: doesn't have any wrinkles of any kind, he says, doesn't.
Speaker 4: Is he still alive? Yeah, he's eighty three. He's still alive.
Speaker 2: He looks great. I bet he don't looks like he's
Speaker 2: had botox a thousand times.
Speaker 4: How badass is this guy?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I'm just it's not that big a deal, I tell you, buddy,
Speaker 4: no big deal.
Speaker 2: Very few people braver yeah than scientists. Proton beams, Yeah,
Speaker 2: don't cross the streams.
Speaker 5: Yeah, my dad, Because my dad worked at three M.
Speaker 5: He helped create this thing called a proton pack.
Speaker 2: Is that right? Wow?
Speaker 5: So him and like three of his friends would carry
Speaker 5: the proton packs on their back and they'd go around
Speaker 5: and like, I don't know, look for supernatural beings and stuff.
Speaker 2: It was I don't understand it. I guess he was
Speaker 2: in a documentary.
Speaker 4: And did he have anything to do with the post
Speaker 4: it note?
Speaker 2: My dad? No, okay, but he was probably there when
Speaker 2: it happened.
Speaker 3: What is it?
Speaker 2: I wonder when the post it note started?
Speaker 3: We looked that up.
Speaker 2: It's a good question.
Speaker 4: Well, while you're doing that, I want to let you
Speaker 4: know that. In nineteen ninety six, Burgovski applied for disability
Speaker 4: status just to get free epilepsy medicine, and Russia denied him.
Speaker 4: Sure you're fine, ugly, some bitch, get out of here.
Speaker 4: Don't make us look at you.
Speaker 5: Post it notes were invented through a three M collaboration
Speaker 5: between doctor Spencer Silver. That's a cool name, that has
Speaker 5: a great name in nineteen sixty eight, created a unique
Speaker 5: low tech reusable adhesive microsphere and art fry in nineteen
Speaker 5: seventy four, after initialffairs with SO nineteen eighty nationwide release.
Speaker 5: So yeah, one hundred percent. My dad was definitely a
Speaker 5: three M wow in that range.
Speaker 4: Doctor Spencer Silver, that's a.
Speaker 2: Great name, that is a really cool name.
Speaker 4: No, it's not a good name, Doctor Art Fry.
Speaker 5: Sorry Art, I've done fry Art oh Man at McDonald's
Speaker 5: for forty six years.
Speaker 4: You should see what I can do with a frosty
Speaker 4: and a fry.
Speaker 2: I can't get on board with that. I know a
Speaker 2: lot of people do that. Hi, Marni, Hi, good morning.
Speaker 2: Do you do the fries in the frosty at Wendy's.
Speaker 11: I have sensitive teeth, so that hard past is not
Speaker 11: appealing to me. I like fries, right and I like Frosty's,
Speaker 11: just not together. I'll have them separate.
Speaker 4: May ask you question, Marty, may ask your question. Of course,
Speaker 4: if you were on the dating game and you could
Speaker 4: not see either of them, but they said, do you
Speaker 4: get to choose, Marty between doctor Spencer Silver or doctor.
Speaker 2: Art Fry just by the name.
Speaker 4: Is the name go to sweat you at all?
Speaker 2: Of course? Yeah, yeah, it's an immediate judgment. Of course,
Speaker 2: which one are you taking?
Speaker 5: I'll take the silver, Yeah, Doctor Spencer Silver was five
Speaker 5: hundred and thirty six pounds.
Speaker 2: I'll take the fry. I just made that up.
Speaker 4: Doctor Fry was allergic to potatoes.
Speaker 2: Oh no, doctor Spencer's they're so good, so post it notes,
Speaker 2: shout out to three very helpful.
Speaker 4: Yes, thank you.
Speaker 2: Anybody from three M's listening. My guess is there are
Speaker 2: people from three AM. Sure, sure, sure, ye. Martin's our squad,
Speaker 2: one man, come on, let's go. Let's great game. It
Speaker 2: was a great game.
Speaker 4: Game, great game.
Speaker 2: I watched the whole thing.
Speaker 4: Can you believe it?
Speaker 5: You did?
Speaker 1: I did.
Speaker 4: I had to because I knew it was just gonna
Speaker 4: be he and I for the first two hours. I
Speaker 4: had to watch it so I could he'd have somebody
Speaker 4: talk to. I loved it.
Speaker 11: But it was a great, super entertaining actually very much was.
Speaker 2: How cool was it?
Speaker 5: Like, I know this is childish, but how cool was
Speaker 5: the the vibe in San Antonio with all the colored
Speaker 5: shirts like that look, it looked awesome.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 11: They did that in the first round for a couple
Speaker 11: of games too.
Speaker 2: It was. It's cool visual concept.
Speaker 4: The crazy thing about it is watching that game having
Speaker 4: been in that stadium. That's a terrible stadium. It arena, Yeah,
Speaker 4: there arena is a big old barn. They didn't even
Speaker 4: use part of it. Wait, no, you can't tell that.
Speaker 4: Well there's a place now, Well, because it's there twenty
Speaker 4: years ago.
Speaker 2: I was there where they where the Spurs play.
Speaker 11: There is a barn like next to it, but have
Speaker 11: you definitely been inside. It was called at and T
Speaker 11: Center and now it's Frost Bank Center.
Speaker 4: Whatever. I went to San Antonio with Pa and du
Speaker 4: Bay when I was first brand new at the radio station,
Speaker 4: and we went to a Spurs game versus the Wolves. Okay, okay,
Speaker 4: I remember that like they had it was the building
Speaker 4: was bigger than the basketball court, like they had a
Speaker 4: curtain at the end of the building, and part of
Speaker 4: the building wasn't being used, So that must have been
Speaker 4: before they had the new room.
Speaker 11: Maybe because I've been to, like you've been a billion
Speaker 11: teen games there and I've never seen a curtain nor
Speaker 11: part of the arena that's not used. But when you
Speaker 11: pull into the parking lot, it looks like there's a
Speaker 11: horse show next door.
Speaker 4: Okay all the time, right, Maybe I saw it.
Speaker 3: I like, are you thinking of the Alamo Dome?
Speaker 4: Maybe they were playing the Alamodome. I don't know. There
Speaker 4: was no basement in this place, though.
Speaker 7: So.
Speaker 3: You don't remember the Alamo.
Speaker 4: I don't remember the Alamodi.
Speaker 5: The news is next and we'll talk Wolves and Spurs
Speaker 5: with Marnie Gelner in a little bit as well.
Speaker 2: This is the Power Trim morning show on the Fan
