1 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 1: WDV Pittsburgh, an iHeartRadio station. 2 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:24,799 Speaker 2: Guaranteed human. To my thinking, gas stations used to sell 3 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 2: gas and chips, and it seems like they shifted their 4 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 2: product mix essentially to be narcotics adjacent. That's where we're 5 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 2: at right now. Like the gas station people know what 6 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 2: they're doing. You know, when you go in there you 7 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,839 Speaker 2: buy a blueberry Swiss or sweet wrapper. They know you're 8 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 2: not writing a review for Cigar Aficionado magazine, like they 9 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,879 Speaker 2: are complicit in the whole thing. When you go into 10 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 2: a gas station now, it's like walking into like a 11 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 2: low level drug dealer's apartment. That's like, there's dorito crumbs everywhere. 12 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 2: There's a guy who doesn't quite speak English hanging out 13 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 2: in the corner. A bunch of people have guns that 14 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 2: should not have guns in there. The gas station cashier 15 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 2: is like, dude, I got caffeine pills, I got Delta nine, 16 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 2: I got cret Tom.

The snow 51 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 2: that fell overnight a little more than I was expecting, 52 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 2: I can tell you that much. 53 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, but one to three inches, and it is going 54 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 4: to be a little dicey of a morning commute, so 55 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 4: you'll have a little more snow and rain through the morning. 56 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 5: Otherwise it's going to be breezy, not as cold. 57 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,679 Speaker 4: Considerable clouds today and the high forty eight, so okay. 58 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll be fine eventually, but so no shoveling. It'll 59 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 2: all melt. Yes. 60 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 4: One story that I wish Mike was in the room 61 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 4: for former Rage against the Machine. Guitarist Tom Morello will 62 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 4: be joining Bruce Springsteen's tour. Bruce Springsteen and the East 63 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 4: Street Band announced their Land of Hopes and Dreams tour, 64 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 4: which includes a May nineteen stop at PPG Paints Areena. 65 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 4: Morello's going to perform with the band on select songs 66 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 4: as well. Morello and Springsteen shared the stage in January 67 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 4: at Morello's Defend Minnesota, a concert of solid solidarity and 68 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 4: resistance in Minneapolis. But Marella, a member of the Rock 69 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 4: and Fell Hall of Fame, also starred in Audio Slave 70 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 4: as well as his solo career and Rage Against the 71 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 4: Machine covered Springsteen's The Ghost of Tom Jod back in 72 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 4: the nineteen nineties, and Morello toured with Springsteen and the 73 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 4: EA Street Band from twenty twelve to twenty fifteen. 74 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: All Right, I love Rage, Don't get me wrong. I 75 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 2: like Tom Morello as a person. 76 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 6: Uh. 77 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 2: I do not understand this musical collaboration, and I never 78 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 2: have to me. This is not too This is not 79 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 2: chocolate and peanut butter. This is mustard in a hot 80 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 2: fudg Sunday, you know what I mean. 81 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 3: I do wish Mike was here because I wonder if 82 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 3: he saw any of that tour. That's a crazy tour. 83 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 3: Tom Morello opening up for the Boss of the original. 84 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 5: One you mean twenty twelve fifteen one. 85 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, he definitely did, right, and did you? And what 86 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 3: were the I mean, this seems crazy. It seems like 87 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 3: a total like people who Tom Morello. It seems like 88 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 3: he would just shred the faces off of her buds 89 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 3: Bruce Springsteen fans. 90 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't. They're not compatible to me musically. I 91 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 2: never understood it. But I think they are very politically aligned, obviously, 92 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 2: and that has a lot to do with the genesis 93 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 2: of their relationship. I just never understood it. I think 94 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 2: they're like separately very cool together. I don't understand it. 95 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 5: Sonically, it doesn't make sense. 96 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 4: Tom Morello is known for, of course, taking things just 97 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 4: like the input jack of his guitar and making it 98 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 4: sound like he's almost beat boxing or like scratching on 99 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 4: records or something like that. You know, So he's he's 100 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 4: a very cool guitar player and he's very outside of 101 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 4: the box. But in terms of where that sonically aligns 102 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 4: with what the Eastreet Band does. 103 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 5: It doesn't. 104 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 4: Politically, yes, they're aligned, outside of that, not totally sure. 105 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 4: Maybe Morella is going to be showing another side of 106 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 4: what he's capable of. 107 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what you reminded me of one of 108 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 3: the greatest concerts I ever saw audio Slave. Yeah, I 109 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 3: mean the best of Sound Garden and the best of 110 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 3: Rage against the Machine all in one concert. 111 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 5: I don't disagree with that. Listen. 112 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 4: It's not unlike what I've always said about Jack White, 113 00:05:53,279 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 4: which is Meg White rained him in because he's outside 114 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 4: of the box kind of player, and depending on who 115 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 4: you're surrounded by, you kind of have other musicians that 116 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 4: can contain you in a way. An audio Slave almost 117 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 4: put Morello in a pop centric box in a way 118 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 4: because you had Cornell there, who even though he comes 119 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 4: from Soundguard and had pop sensibilities. 120 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, you kind of put that just like Jack White 121 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 3: kind of is audio Slave in the sense of you 122 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 3: just get your face crushed for two and a half hours. Yeah. 123 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 2: Well, I guess the best example of what I mean 124 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 2: when I don't think they fit together. Tom Morello guested 125 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 2: on John Fogerty's record of a few years ago, wrote 126 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 2: a song for everyone, and on the actual song wrote 127 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: a song for everyone. Miranda Lambert and Tom Morello guested 128 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 2: on it. Now, this is like the chorus going into 129 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 2: the guitar solo and listen, like what the song sounds 130 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 2: like y versus what Tom Morello does for a guitar 131 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 2: old real song, Harry kind of country rock salty you 132 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 2: All right, here's that Tom Morell guitar song. It's gotta 133 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 2: get yer And I'm like, he's awesome, but it never 134 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 2: fits the song. To me, it doesn't. 135 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 5: It doesn't fit the song. There were moments there though, 136 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 5: it was it was. 137 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 3: It starts exactly at the beginning, if like, oh, it's 138 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 3: gonna be like some Chris Stapleton, nice groove, and then 139 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 3: it all of a sudden turned into Iron Maiden. 140 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I never I don't know. 141 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, not quite right. Yeah, he's got it in there. 142 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 5: He could, he could. 143 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 2: I think we made our point. It's like Born Runs 144 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 2: gonna crush it. I mean, he's obviously an amazing player. 145 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 2: He is, Okay, that's all. I'm not trying to denigrate 146 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: his playing. We're not. We're not, that's all. I was 147 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 2: trying to think, like Jack White wouldn't sound good with 148 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 2: you know, but I think Jack White sounds good with 149 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 2: everybody else. He's the wrong example. Jack White's like baron 150 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 2: aro sauce everything. 151 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 4: Joey b was talking about his long day what is 152 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 4: your wine down routine? 153 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 5: At the end of the day. 154 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 3: Listening to a hockey podcast. 155 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 4: If you're found in bed with your phone most nights, 156 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 4: you're in good company, but it's probably not helping you get. 157 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 5: The rest that you need. 158 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 4: We've all heard the advice to avoid blue light from 159 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 4: electronics before bedtime, but many of us are not following it. 160 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 4: A new survey suggests The American Academy of Sleep Medicine's 161 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 4: poll of two thousand adults across the country uncovers how 162 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 4: this nightly habit is affecting our sleep. It finds that 163 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 4: more than a quarter, so twenty six percent, admit they 164 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 4: prioritize screen time with their phones over getting at least 165 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 4: seven hours of sleep, which is what experts recommend. Half 166 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 4: of adults say they use the screen, whether it's a TV, phone, computer, tablet, 167 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 4: or E reader, in bed, every single night.

We'll start with the 367 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 8: Steelers because Omar Con, general manager of the Steelers, spoke 368 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 8: yesterday at the NFL scouting Combine in Indianapolis. First and foremost, 369 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,199 Speaker 8: let's address the quarterback situation, because first and foremost they 370 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 8: don't seem all that concerned about immediately addressing the quarterback situation. 371 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 9: Doors open to have Aaron back. You know, we've I've 372 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 9: had conversations with him. I spoke to him last week. 373 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 9: You know, Mike McCarthy spoke to him, and you know, 374 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 9: he knows how we feel about him, and you know 375 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 9: it's yeah, right now, we're proceeding it. You know, he's 376 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:07,719 Speaker 9: a free agent and he's not on the roster, so 377 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 9: but you know, he knows how we feel about him. 378 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 8: Yeah, con went so far as to say that there's 379 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 8: not a deadline set for Rogers, but it won't be 380 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 8: like last year, which is comforting to all that we 381 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 8: won't still be talking about this in June. But then again, 382 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 8: I guess by the time you get to June, it's 383 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 8: a matter of what you didn't do in March in 384 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 8: April anyway, which is how they wound up with Rogers in. 385 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 2: The first place. Right. 386 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 6: Honestly, it was June before we knew last year's June. Second, 387 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 6: My god, I was in Italy on my honeymoon. 388 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,199 Speaker 2: Me too. You know, Here's what I don't understand. It 389 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 2: seems to me like it's a done deal. I don't 390 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 2: understand if it is a done deal, which again it 391 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 2: seems to be why the need for all of this 392 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 2: speculation and pretend talk. I mean, is he just like, Hey, 393 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 2: I'm ninety percent sure it's he loves that drama. He 394 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,479 Speaker 2: loves to have that now. He wants to be wanted. 395 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,120 Speaker 2: He wants to be wanted. I guess I shouldn't discount 396 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 2: the fact that somebody, especially at that age and at 397 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 2: that point in his career, might legitimately want to think 398 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 2: it over. But he's kind of used up all of 399 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,360 Speaker 2: my benefit of doubt because. 400 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 8: It took so long last year, right, you know, and 401 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 8: after the way last year ended, I could see you 402 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 8: wanting to figure out right up until free agency and 403 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 8: maybe they'll be the case. And quite honestly, if he 404 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 8: gives them a decision before the legal tampering period. 405 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 2: Begins, I'm fine with it me too. 406 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 8: You know, like everything else is you know there, what 407 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 8: homework are they not doing? They have to be prepared 408 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 8: to look at free agents. They are looking at drafty quarterbacks, 409 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 8: I'm sure. 410 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 2: But none of those other options give you a better chance. 411 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 2: I don't think outside of the big maybe of Malik Willis, 412 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 2: which cost you a whole lot to see those cards, but. 413 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,719 Speaker 8: That contract you can get out of those we learn 414 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 8: what justin fields and the Jets. 415 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 2: Okay, but still, you know that's a lot of money. 416 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 2: It's you're not as sure of what you're getting. Unfortunately, 417 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 2: I don't think they have a lot of better options. 418 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 2: This seems to be the best option they have. I'm 419 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 2: not saying this is gonna be make them better than 420 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 2: any other team in the NFL. 421 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 6: You gotta dance with who's available, they could wind up 422 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 6: in the same musical chairs game that they did last year, 423 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 6: with them staring at each other. 424 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 8: I just prefer that they know if they want to 425 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 8: be staring at them by the time they get to 426 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 8: free agency. 427 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,239 Speaker 2: And I would love to know how aggressively they went 428 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 2: after Sam Donald last year. 429 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,960 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, I I do ever regret over that, 430 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 8: Like I was thinking about that recently accident right after 431 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 8: he won the Super I was on board with them 432 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 8: going after Donald and paying for Donald. And I didn't 433 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,640 Speaker 8: bang that drum loud enough because I wasn't that sure, 434 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 8: Like I wasn't that convicted, and. 435 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,959 Speaker 2: I want well, there was no real concrete news about that. 436 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 2: Like what we were told was basically they they wanted 437 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 2: to retain Fields. Fields didn't want to come back. They 438 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,679 Speaker 2: set a price for Fields that he easily beat in 439 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 2: New York, So how bad did they really want him? 440 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 2: Their plan B was darnold, we were told, and they 441 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 2: made an offer that didn't compete with what he got 442 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 2: in Seattle. 443 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,679 Speaker 6: Their plan B was because they knew he was going 444 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 6: to get more money than Fields at a lot, which 445 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,400 Speaker 6: all seems very Pittsburgh piratey. 446 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 2: Yeah to me. 447 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 8: You know, Oh, Actually, the pirates usually tend to no, 448 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 8: they're Josh Naylor. Started with Josh Naylor and Kyle Schwarber, 449 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 8: then they got down to Brandon Lowe. Right this time, 450 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 8: it was they started with Brandon Lowe, then they took 451 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 8: a swing a Kyle Schwarber and they missed on both. 452 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, but now they've got Will Howard. 453 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 8: Based on what Omar Cohn said yesterday, why was he 454 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 8: talking him up? 455 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 2: Hey, dude, Mike McCarthy is a rural big fan of 456 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 2: Will hired and what better Pittsburgh name in the history 457 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 2: of Pittsburgh quarterbacks. 458 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 6: Roethlisberger was a pretty good one because no one knew 459 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 6: how to say it. 460 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, Marama Fanger ab said it different every time he 461 00:23:58,240 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 2: pronounced his name. 462 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 6: I got Ofthenberger email yesterday.

I just don't think there's a 476 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 2: guy to drafts now exactly. It may not be. 477 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm looking at the guy's South Carolina. He 478 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 3: didn't play good last year, but I like that guy 479 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 3: for the Steelers. 480 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I like Arch if he has another 481 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 2: year under his belt and see if he's you like 482 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 2: that side arm crap he does. 483 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 3: I'm with you, Joe, I'm like, how can you go 484 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 3: to maning Manning quarterback camp at your whole life and 485 00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 3: throw the ball in the dirt? 486 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 8: You know, you know that's gonna go if he comes here. 487 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 8: If they were to somehow wind up with Archs band, 488 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 8: he would be. 489 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 2: Well, you know, teek through sidearm.

He was 499 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 2: awesome to have around, He really was. 500 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 9: And you know, the one thing people don't talk enough 501 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,199 Speaker 9: about him is his toughness is real. He is a 502 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 9: tough football player, and I thought that resonated with the 503 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 9: with his teammates. 504 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 6: There's a lot more on the table with Omar, but 505 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,159 Speaker 6: we'll get to that throughout the morning, and Mike Pursuda 506 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 6: will be calling us from Indy at seven forty five. 507 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 8: All right, so we'll talk to Mike and get it firsthand. 508 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 8: I do want to point out one other things Broderick Jones. 509 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 8: His health and time for training camp seems to be 510 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 8: in doubt. That was I thought the most newsworthy thing 511 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 8: to come out was they're not sure if Jones is 512 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,479 Speaker 8: even gonna be ready for camp. And he started to 513 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 8: pump up Dylan Cook and I think offensive tackle has 514 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 8: entered the chat for the draft. 515 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 2: Well did it not seem almost dismissive of Broderick Jones. 516 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 2: It did to me, well, like, ah, yeah, well you know, 517 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,439 Speaker 2: we're monitoring his health and there did not seem to 518 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 2: be as much concern. I think that they had already 519 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 2: had their mindset on moving past this. This experiment is over. 520 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 6: I think they already had their mindset that he wasn't 521 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 6: getting the fifth year options. 522 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 2: That's what I mean. Yeah. 523 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 8: So another interesting NFL note, The league is now admitting 524 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 8: that it got a. 525 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 2: Call wrong in the Ravens Steelers game in Baltimore. I'll 526 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 2: tell you what. We could probably dive into this more. 527 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:48,119 Speaker 2: And my god, Ravens fans have to be furious about 528 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 2: players online Like there, I saw Lamar Lamar, and I 529 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 2: say what Lamar said? Oh so we want a playoff 530 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 2: game now? Because that wasn't a playoff game? 531 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 8: Did you say playoffs or he said no, he said 532 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 8: a postseason, off season win. 533 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 2: He's so obviously okay, maybe I miss construe that his 534 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 2: postseason Yeah. Uh, they got screwed. We all knew it. 535 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 2: I never understood the logic of the Isaiah likely no 536 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 2: touchdown call, even as it was constantly being explained to 537 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 2: me by Jean's territor and PURSUITA no. Yeah, if you're 538 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 2: holding the ball out, you have to pull it in. 539 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 2: That is the the you know, football move you have 540 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 2: to make. Oh they reversed that call. Do you remember that? Yes? 541 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 8: I do, yeah, No, no, no, they reversed Aaron Rodgers call. 542 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 8: The Aaron Rodgers calls the. 543 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 2: One they reversed. I thought they did both of them. 544 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 8: No, they well, they had previously apologized for the Christian 545 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 8: Koon's play. They did that the Monday after the play 546 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 8: where the defensive tackle was over Christian koh yees no, 547 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 8: that I remember. 548 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 2: Okay, so they apologized for that one, I thought they. 549 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 6: I thought they also apologized for the Isaiah Isaiah likely 550 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 6: lat year Yesterday during the season, they had something, you know, 551 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 6: they they double talked it that basically said that, uh, 552 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 6: maybe the way they explained it was not the way 553 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 6: they explained it, but the one that they distinctly talked 554 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 6: about yesterday in a Pro Football Talk interview was the 555 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers played that this same Okay, now that and 556 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 6: the reason why it stands out to me is I 557 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 6: feel like they're apologizing for that play by way of 558 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 6: explaining why the Buffalo Denver plays hundred perc That was 559 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 6: my interpretation of it. 560 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, the oh he didn't fumble that, that's the place 561 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 3: bugget Yeah. 562 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 2: Oh my God where he had the ball batted back 563 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 2: to him.

Yeah. 565 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 3: So now they've apologized for the three biggest plays of 566 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 3: the season, no question in that game. 567 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, exactly.

I wouldn't think that insurance companies for trampoline 628 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,959 Speaker 2: parks would want them to do anything that would make 629 00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 2: it harder to see. Well, let me tell you that 630 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 2: the first step in black light night at a trampoline 631 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 2: park is filling out the waiver. The waiver is eighteen 632 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 2: pages long, as at a trampoline park, and here's an 633 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 2: excerpt of the waiver. Let me read this to you 634 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 2: just so you can get your reaction. Release of liability, 635 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 2: despite all known and unknown risks, I on behalf of myself, 636 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 2: all individuals named herein, including minor children, hereby expressly, unconditionally 637 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 2: and volunteerily agree not to sue trampoline Park and its agents, owners, parents, company, 638 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 2: and subsidiaries from any and all liability.

I love that really covers all your bases. 643 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 2: That means if a kid gets impaled on sword pit Saturday, 644 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 2: so you can't do anything about it. A waiver that 645 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 2: says if we're negligent. I ran this through chat GPT 646 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 2: and they're just like, this means nothing like this. This 647 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 2: is only meant to scare housewives into not suing people. Basically, 648 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 2: And let me tell you about the emotional injury part. 649 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 2: We experienced some emotional at the trampoline park. Well, tell 650 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 2: us about that aspect of it. There's a dodgeball area 651 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 2: at the trampoline park, big like basketball court sized trampolines 652 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 2: with a little divider in between. And so my kids 653 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 2: there I brought. It was for my son's birthday, so 654 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 2: I brought ten of his friends there. Now ten of 655 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,719 Speaker 2: his friends, they're all eleven years old. This is at 656 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 2: eleven years old, you're kind of getting into your peak, 657 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 2: feeling yourself. Oh yeah, like not you know, you're not 658 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 2: quite a man, not yet, not still a boy, just 659 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 2: testing the waters out. So they go in and completely 660 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 2: start running rampant. I know that this is going to 661 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 2: be the case. I know they're gonna be irritating, so 662 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 2: I'm like, you know what, I'm just gonna let them, 663 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 2: let the world correct this behavior potentially. And boy did it. 664 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 2: They get in there. There's a group of like maybe 665 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 2: like ninth graders, like young high school kids with big 666 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 2: like kids with dirty teenage mustache. Sure, and they but 667 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 2: there's only like three or four of them, so all 668 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 2: the they've got to be almost aged out of that 669 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 2: at that point, right probably. I mean, like, let's be honest, 670 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 2: like I was riding some razor scooters deep into high school. 671 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 2: So it depends on what the level. Yeah, yeah, exactly. 672 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 2: So anyway, they start running a muck and they start 673 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,320 Speaker 2: kind of testing the waters against these older kids, and 674 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 2: I said, it's like, if you've ever seen a nature 675 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 2: video of like a pack of hyenas sort of surrounding 676 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 2: a lion, That's exactly what it was like. It was like. 677 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 2: So then they they're grabbing dodgeballs, they start pegging people. 678 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 2: There's a bunch of girls there that are sort of 679 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,840 Speaker 2: old are probably around the same thing. So all of 680 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 2: the kids that I brought are firing dodgeballs at people's faces. 681 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 2: They're playing. Now I'm watching just from the side. They 682 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 2: start getting hit with dodgeballs and they're not going out, 683 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 2: like they're getting grazed and the like. So the other 684 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 2: side is being like you're out, and they're like, no, 685 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 2: I'm not. You know, it's like no, I'm not. Yeah, 686 00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,839 Speaker 2: it immediately, you know, within five minutes, devolved into ninth 687 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,359 Speaker 2: graders pegging all these kids in the face, crossing over 688 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 2: and pushing them. Like the whole thing devolved into like 689 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 2: a like they had to get broken up. Like I 690 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 2: actually had to come in and finally just be My 691 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 2: son got pegged in the nose. People were crying. I 692 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 2: had my seven year old with us, and he was 693 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 2: just like, what is going on? I'm in too deep? Right? 694 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 1: Yeah? 695 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 2: He he immediately went and started playing with a bunch 696 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 2: of like four year old kids. So it was absolutely 697 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 2: insane and like there's I'm gonna go play blocks that 698 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 2: I'm not ready for whatever you people are into. A 699 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 2: high schooler almost kicked my ass. I'm in second grade, 700 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 2: Like this is not this is not for me. But 701 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,359 Speaker 2: I always feel like like games like this, like dodgeball, 702 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 2: pick up basketball, all that kind of stuff. Like I 703 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 2: remember getting into like near fights at pickup basketball a 704 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 2: million times in my life, and it was all over 705 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 2: little miniature transgressions that just built up. Somebody blocked too hard, 706 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 2: somebody didn't call a foul, and yeah, like and of 707 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,399 Speaker 2: course there's no at the trampoline park. It's all being 708 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 2: run by like like kind of complacent fourteen year olds 709 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 2: that don't want to be there to begin with. So 710 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 2: it was like a metaphor for society, like we need 711 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 2: to call out. You need to call out your own 712 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,319 Speaker 2: side if you get out, you need to go out 713 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 2: and otherwise it devolves into chaos. The game is over 714 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 2: and we're all just bashing each other in the face. 715 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 2: I mean the terror that your youngest one must have 716 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 2: felt where he was just going along for the ride 717 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 2: and everything was fine and he's protected, and then he 718 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 2: is like, I am in full adult world now, dude. 719 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 2: I saw a forty six mile an hour dodgeball whiz 720 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 2: by his head and his whole demeanor changed. He was like, 721 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 2: I don't want to be on the other end of that. 722 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go sit in the lobby and play the 723 00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 2: Donkey Kong. Now, were you the only parent that was 724 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,479 Speaker 2: handling that group. Yes, that's got to be tough when 725 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 2: there's kids who are almost like ninth grade age, like 726 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,360 Speaker 2: you said, like they're not exactly the age where they 727 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 2: want to deal with a parent. No, well they didn't. Yeah, 728 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:00,840 Speaker 2: they weren't interested in that all. And I think what 729 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:04,959 Speaker 2: started happening is that there we have one mouthy there's 730 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 2: one or two maybe mouthy kids in my group kind 731 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 2: of doing all the trash talk. And then one of 732 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 2: the ninth graders had red hair, and one of the 733 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 2: mouthy eleven year old started calling him gingerbread boy, My 734 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 2: gingerbread boy. You can't hit me, gingerbread boy. And then 735 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,720 Speaker 2: so that then then after the ire of the girls 736 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 2: that were there, the girls started like attacking them all, 737 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 2: and it was but it was sort of poetic to see, 738 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 2: you know, that kind of democracy in action where all 739 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 2: of society just collapsed in on the bad, bad actors 740 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 2: and was trying to rectify the situation. You know, it 741 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 2: was kind of nice that way. 742 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 3: I can see your fourth grade son, he was like 743 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 3: see in Good Fellas when the biker bar fight exploded 744 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:47,479 Speaker 3: in Brontail. Yeah, he's looking around like he crawls under 745 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 3: the table. 746 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 2: I mean, do you think that the younger kids, I mean, 747 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 2: come on, ginger boy, Like, is that like video game culture? 748 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,800 Speaker 2: So like when I when I got this all because 749 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 2: I would have never taunted hell an older person when 750 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 2: I was over a headset, not in real life exactly, 751 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 2: f around and find out. That's a great point because 752 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 2: we never did video games, and when we talked crap 753 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 2: to somebody, it was real life and you're gonna get 754 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 2: there was no moms, there was no oh, we're gonna 755 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 2: see you. It was you got putts in the face. Well, 756 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 2: so right when I brought the kids, Like, I was 757 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,359 Speaker 2: sort of telling the parents like, yeah, I'm gonna blow 758 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:29,239 Speaker 2: them all up in like one car and we're gonna 759 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 2: listen to music on the way. I was like, it's 760 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 2: gonna be so much fun on the way to and back. 761 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 2: And this one mom goes, I don't think it's gonna 762 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 2: be as fun as you think. And I'm like, why 763 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 2: I go, I go, I go car ride music, all 764 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 2: your buddies in the same car. They go. Three of 765 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:45,319 Speaker 2: these kids have phones, and uh, they'll just be watching 766 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 2: the phones the whole time. And I was like, no, 767 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 2: there's no way. I was like, all your buddies together, 768 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,960 Speaker 2: sure enough, three kids as soon as they got the phone, Hey, 769 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 2: I slop, brain rot, like all this kind of stuff 770 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 2: going on. And I was like, why are parents like 771 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 2: we're still allowing this. We're calling things AI slop and 772 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 2: brain rot and we're still like, yeah, let the kids 773 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,919 Speaker 2: watch it. I was thinking about it the other day. 774 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 2: The amount like you know, Zuckerberg, Peter Teal, all of 775 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:13,240 Speaker 2: these guys are like, we would never let our kids 776 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 2: have devices, and the they're the ones who are pushing it, yes, 777 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 2: So why aren't Why isn't the response universally like, because 778 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 2: this should be like cigarettes. The line is so blurry 779 00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 2: with the content because like, you know, is brain rot 780 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 2: any different than you know, Tom and Jerry, Like like, 781 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:37,359 Speaker 2: I'm sure, I feel like the line it's a it's 782 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 2: a gradual spectrum. So it's like, well, we watched cartoons 783 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 2: and they were stupid, you know or whatever. Like I 784 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 2: think Rand and Stimpy was probably kind of like but 785 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 2: that was a redo. It was a very adult com 786 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,800 Speaker 2: like cartoon, right, I mean, I guess what you're saying 787 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 2: right now just illustrates that it is a conversation that 788 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:58,800 Speaker 2: requires nuance and we don't do nuances. No, And clearly 789 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,239 Speaker 2: it didn't teach any rule to the children have how 790 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 2: to behave in real life that happen a tenth graders. 791 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,720 Speaker 2: I mean, these these these guys that were going against 792 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 2: had like traps like that's the They weren't like, you know, 793 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,680 Speaker 2: a little like slightly bigger than them. They were like 794 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 2: football player type type high school kids. Hit Yeah, absolutely, 795 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 2: and that makes me think I was like, these kids 796 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 2: must have never got their ass kicked. You would never 797 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 2: go up to a guy that's that much bigger than 798 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 2: you and call him a name and then run away 799 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,280 Speaker 2: and try to peg his girlfriend with like a dodgeball. 800 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 2: Hell no, I just remember being a kid and like 801 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 2: dirt bikes in the woods and there's a group of 802 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 2: older kids led by a dude named Keith with Lucas. 803 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 2: I will never forget it.
