Speaker 1: Welcome to the solid verbal. Come that for me. I'm
Speaker 1: a man, I'm for I've heard so many players say, well,
Speaker 1: I want to be happy. You want to be happy
Speaker 1: for day? Edith State?
Speaker 2: Is that? Woo woom? And Dan and Tye, welcome back
Speaker 2: to the solid verbal boys and girls. My name is
Speaker 2: ty Hildebrand, joining me as always my good friend Dan
Speaker 2: Rubinstein in New York City. Sir, how are you just
Speaker 2: clocking in? Clocking out? Ty Yeah, Bud Foster lunch, paiale
Speaker 2: my hard hat. I'm ready to go, just living the
Speaker 2: dream on super Bowl Week?
Speaker 1: No less, it is super Bowl week? Do we have
Speaker 1: super Bowl content planned? I don't think we do. Ah,
Speaker 1: we sort of do.
Speaker 2: We asked for food questions about super bowl S to
Speaker 2: find super Bowl content.
Speaker 1: Who is your here? You ready? Yeahy? This is this
Speaker 1: is blue chip, top level, solid verbal super Bowl content. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Who is your favorite college football player playing in the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl? So? Who on the Patriots or Eagles did
Speaker 1: you most enjoy playing college football? Oh? Man, my answer
Speaker 1: is Lagarrett Blunt. Lagarrett Blunt. My answer is one thousand.
Speaker 1: I liked all the organ ducs. I think Kenyon Barner
Speaker 1: and Patrick Chung. I may be missing somebody. But my
Speaker 1: definitive answer is Lagarrett Blunt. I can think of some
Speaker 1: a non organ person if you can think of something.
Speaker 2: Al Sean Jeffrey was pretty damn cool.
Speaker 1: It's Carol. That's a good answer. I like that answer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, al Sean's probably my answer.
Speaker 1: You know who I liked watching play a lot in
Speaker 1: college who had sort of a bum rap I think
Speaker 1: injury wise, Dean Lewis. Yeah, okay, it was real fun
Speaker 1: for pay Yeah, it's decent.
Speaker 2: Well, we hope everyone out there enjoys watching the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2: It's obviously a big deal here in eastern Pennsylvania given
Speaker 2: the matchup and the Eagles being there. Oh Foles, I
Speaker 2: was going to go there with Nick falls hopefully not
Speaker 2: in a loose effort. Dan, Yeah, if you're an Eagles fan.
Speaker 2: But do you have a final score prediction?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Sure, I don't know. Twenty four fourteen Patriots. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna pick the Eagles. Yeah, Nick Foles, Nick for Bill Belichick?
Speaker 1: What the hell?
Speaker 2: Why not? Thirty one to twenty six. I'm predicting a
Speaker 2: missed two point conversion at the end for the Patriots.
Speaker 2: Thirty one twenty six is my prediction.
Speaker 1: I could not know any less about the NFL in
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen twenty eighteen, in terms of making a prediction
Speaker 1: that's rooted in any sort of knowledge, I started watching
Speaker 1: the season basically during the playoffs, so.
Speaker 2: I just hope for fun football I watched during the
Speaker 2: regular season. And this is due in large part to
Speaker 2: the fact that you and I overdose on college football. Yeah,
Speaker 2: on Saturdays, then we record on Sundays. I'm editing most
Speaker 2: of the day on an NFL Sunday, and so by
Speaker 2: the time i'm with that around three o'clock, I don't
Speaker 2: feel like watching any more football. I probably watched a
Speaker 2: combined forty five minutes of the NFL regular season this year.
Speaker 2: I'm with you, I was very uninformed come playoff time.
Speaker 1: I will also add in terms of players that I
Speaker 1: enjoyed or have a strong reaction to what they did
Speaker 1: in college. I remember, I want to say, two thousand
Speaker 1: and eight, maybe when Arizona played Oregon and Gronk was
Speaker 1: completely unstoppable and like they you could see Oregon going
Speaker 1: through like what about an outside linebacker on Gronk? What
Speaker 1: about Patrick Chung a safety on Gonk? What about a corner?
Speaker 1: And he just started dragging three people at a time.
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, this guy's gonna be pretty good.
Speaker 1: This guy's pretty good. He's very good.
Speaker 2: We hope everyone out there, if you're going to a
Speaker 2: Super Bowl party, if you're I don't know, watching the game,
Speaker 2: if you're being festive on Super Bowl Sunday, enjoy the game,
Speaker 2: be safe. Let us know if anything fun happens at
Speaker 2: your party.
Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, yeah, we're interested. So what do we have today?
Speaker 1: What are we doing on it is? We're recording this Tuesday,
Speaker 1: January thirtieth, That is corrow. If Nick Saban retires Wednesday, whoops.
Speaker 2: This show will go live on the last day of
Speaker 2: January the thirty first. And so we thought, just as
Speaker 2: like a monthly close out, right, h congratulations, Skippy, you've
Speaker 2: got mail, You've got mail.
Speaker 1: On the solid verbal.
Speaker 2: We're going to play our old sound to pay homage
Speaker 2: to those people who right into the show and ask
Speaker 2: us football and non football and food and whatever else
Speaker 2: related questions. That sound that I just played, along with
Speaker 2: our intro and a handful of other audio drops that
Speaker 2: we play from time to time here on the show
Speaker 2: is an original that was one of the very first
Speaker 2: that we developed on our old version of garage band
Speaker 2: back in two thousand and eight when we were first
Speaker 2: starting out. So that's been with us the entire journey
Speaker 2: here on the Solid Verbal and look, there are numerous
Speaker 2: different ways that people can write in now, either at
Speaker 2: solid Verbal at gmail dot com, or through Facebook or
Speaker 2: Twitter or Instagram. You even asked for some questions out
Speaker 2: on Reddit.
Speaker 1: Yep.
Speaker 2: So we're really pulling in the full audio, full podcasting,
Speaker 2: full social media universe here and trying to get questions
Speaker 2: from the verballerhood.
Speaker 1: Do we have a po box? We actually do have
Speaker 1: a po box. I do want to try doing an
Speaker 1: actual mailbag episode. We don't do that.
Speaker 2: Don't do that to me. I'm the one that's got
Speaker 2: to collect all those Well, listen, well ask for letters.
Speaker 1: You can give out the address whenever tie. It doesn't
Speaker 1: have to be tonight, doesn't have to be. Don't do that.
Speaker 1: But I want to do a show tye where we
Speaker 1: can like flap the physical letter that we get. How
Speaker 1: many could we possibly get.
Speaker 2: It's gonna be like Merrik on thirty four Street with
Speaker 2: the postal workers bringing in the sack.
Speaker 1: I want to do an actual mailbag episode. Let's call
Speaker 1: it maybe July. So at least you're not going out
Speaker 1: in the cold. You'll be wearing shorts and flip flops.
Speaker 1: If I give if I give you.
Speaker 2: This, you have to give me an all Notre Dame show.
Speaker 1: All right, I withdraw my request, I officially, I withdraw
Speaker 1: my I apologize that was uncalled for, it was short sighted,
Speaker 1: and it'll never happen again.
Speaker 2: See I know how to play it.
Speaker 1: No, you will get it. You will get a all
Speaker 1: Notre Dame show. Well, you've done all Notre Dame shows before.
Speaker 1: But if you're in crisis mode like I was with
Speaker 1: Willy Taggert leaving Oregon.
Speaker 2: Okay, well then I don't agree to your terms.
Speaker 1: Okay, we can do something centered around Notre Dame. Kind
Speaker 1: we can.
Speaker 2: We can continue this negotiation. We've got time.
Speaker 1: How about May twenty third at three am and it's lively.
Speaker 1: Do you want to get to some questions. Let's get
Speaker 1: to some questions here. We had a bunch come in.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Daniel, you collected them while I was at
Speaker 2: the Mysterious day job, and a bunch of good ones here.
Speaker 2: I'm excited. Let's record, let's talk.
Speaker 1: Let's go to CJ. Somebody just walked by the voiceover
Speaker 1: both Our pal Liz walked by. CJ wants to know
Speaker 1: thoughts on Jimbo and how he will do at A
Speaker 1: and M. Who also this is a two parter. I'm
Speaker 1: willing to bet you won't be able to list a
Speaker 1: better side to chili than cornbread. Best of luck. Okay,
Speaker 1: I have an answer for that is too. Let's start.
Speaker 1: We actually haven't talked about Jimbo Fisher type beyond like
Speaker 1: the salary thing and the Mike Elco thing. We really
Speaker 1: haven't looked at big picture our thoughts on Jimbo in
Speaker 1: college station, and I think.
Speaker 2: It's mostly due to when he accepted the position at
Speaker 2: A and M. Relative to other stuff that you and
Speaker 2: I had to talk about. We just haven't really had
Speaker 2: an opportunity to delve in. Have you had a chance
Speaker 2: to look at A and m's road schedule in twenty eighteen.
Speaker 1: It's weird. I think they have three straight road games
Speaker 1: with a bye week sort of lumped in the middle somewhere.
Speaker 1: It is not a great road schedule for Texas, A
Speaker 1: and M, Mississippi State, Auburn, and South Carolina. I want
Speaker 1: to say, just schedule wise, in consecutive weeks, not calendar wise, right.
Speaker 2: That's right, October thirteenth at South Carolina, October twenty seventh,
Speaker 2: after an open date at Mississippi State, and then November
Speaker 2: three on the road at Auburn. Now, I don't think
Speaker 2: any of those games are going to be particularly easy,
Speaker 2: especially not for what I would say is a younger
Speaker 2: team now starting over with a new system under Jimbo Fisher. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's not even the worst part of the schedule. Yeah,
Speaker 2: in two out of three weeks they have who exactly September.
Speaker 2: The eighth week two, they're home against Clemson. I don't
Speaker 2: know if that's a neutral psych game. That might be
Speaker 2: a neutral psych game.
Speaker 1: No, it's home, it's Kyle Field.
Speaker 2: Then two weeks later on the road at Bama.
Speaker 1: Yes, the last two the previous two national champions in
Speaker 1: three weeks.
Speaker 2: And both will be loaded for Bear as they always are.
Speaker 2: I don't think there's any chance in the world that
Speaker 2: A and M escapes the month of September without a
Speaker 2: minimum of two losses.
Speaker 1: Wow, Okay, I mean Jimbo is a very good coach,
Speaker 1: and he has some experience on both sides of the ball.
Speaker 1: Some promising young talent loses his what his biggest playmaker,
Speaker 1: perhaps on both sides of the ball are Monti Watts
Speaker 1: on defense, Christian Kirk and all Timer on offense. Certainly,
Speaker 1: it's a new staff for him, a lot of pieces,
Speaker 1: you know. Damian Craig comes over from lsu Ace recruiter,
Speaker 1: Tim Brewster who's been with him for a while. Darryl
Speaker 1: Dickey the offensive coordinator though I don't believe he called
Speaker 1: plays at Memphis, but has a lot of experience in
Speaker 1: the state of Texas. And Mike Elco, who has we're.
Speaker 2: Not talking about Mike Elcho. Lala la la la la
Speaker 2: la la la la la la la la la la
Speaker 2: la la.
Speaker 1: La, and I will only keep it text saying his
Speaker 1: reputation is such that he runs organized defenses and he
Speaker 1: fixes problems, and that has been an issue the past
Speaker 1: couple of years with John Chavis inconsistency. And they do
Speaker 1: see John Chavis, I think early on, right after the
Speaker 1: Alabama game with.
Speaker 2: That against Arkansas.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, so he'll at least be familiar with
Speaker 1: the offensive personnel. But yeah, it's a quarterback battle and
Speaker 1: the big thing is and we didn't see this early
Speaker 1: on in Kevin Someone's tenure because Mike Sherman recruited so
Speaker 1: many ridiculous offensive linemen, that line has been leaky and
Speaker 1: a problem. So what can Jimbo Fisher and his staff
Speaker 1: do with the offensive line? How does that wed to
Speaker 1: an offensive system that looked pretty stale last year given
Speaker 1: a backup quarterback at Florida State, And how does the
Speaker 1: staff all come together with a, to say the very least,
Speaker 1: pretty trying schedule, right.
Speaker 2: Really trying schedule. I'm right now looking at this, looking
Speaker 2: at what they have coming back. I think eight and
Speaker 2: four would be miraculous. I think seven and five is
Speaker 2: more likely. I think six and six could be a possibility.
Speaker 2: Jimbo's a really good coach. He's an excellent coach.
Speaker 1: He's one of what five coaches who's won a national championship, three,
Speaker 1: four or five somewhere in that that are still active
Speaker 1: in college football Power five level whatever. So I think
Speaker 1: certainly Jimbo gives them an edge right now that Kevin
Speaker 1: someone certainly didn't where perhaps they will win a game
Speaker 1: they should lose, and I don't think they will lose
Speaker 1: games they should win as often with Jimbo, but in
Speaker 1: year one, with quarterback questions, offensive line questions. They've recruited
Speaker 1: well obviously, and so I think there's a good amount
Speaker 1: of talent in college station. But long term, I feel
Speaker 1: very good. I think they're going to have consistent top
Speaker 1: eight to twelve recruiting classes. Yeah. Just being in Texas,
Speaker 1: you know, being able to recruit to the SEC, I
Speaker 1: think is still a thing. As certainly as long as
Speaker 1: Texas is not a thing winning double digit games.
Speaker 2: I feel fine about them long term. That's that's not
Speaker 2: my problem. My problem. My question, I guess is twenty eighteen.
Speaker 2: And in twenty eighteen, I'm telling you eight and four miraculous,
Speaker 2: seven and five more likely, six and six of possibility.
Speaker 2: It's on the table.
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I mean they we have what an ole
Speaker 1: miss team going through lots of changes. We may have
Speaker 1: a good quarterback in Jordan Tamu Tamu whatever. They have
Speaker 1: an LSU team offensively, a lot of question marks at
Speaker 1: the onset of what February. But yeah, there's you know,
Speaker 1: we have a Mississippi State team that might have a
Speaker 1: Heisman type caliber quarterback and Nick Fitzgerald, if you.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just too many landlines. We got to
Speaker 2: go through the full schedule here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but listen, we're both high, just not necessarily. On
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, and on his second point, arguably more important point,
Speaker 1: is there something better to serve with chili than cornbread?
Speaker 1: Because I tie controversy. Okay, corn bread's fine. I don't
Speaker 1: go out of my way for cornbread. Do you like
Speaker 1: something like that, like a sweeter type side to not
Speaker 1: necessarily would what would you if you were making a
Speaker 1: big cauldron of chili for the Super Bowl or for whatever?
Speaker 2: What's your side I might get? I don't know if
Speaker 2: it's so much a side, Dan, I'm sure you'll make
Speaker 2: fun of me for this or on a tramole whatever
Speaker 2: that was? What was that word? Okay, something to serve
Speaker 2: with it?
Speaker 1: Great?
Speaker 2: I would say, if you can find some of those
Speaker 2: homemade tortilla chips, sure, just as maybe something that you
Speaker 2: can dip in. Even if you got to go like
Speaker 2: old school toastedos scoops, that's fine. But if you can
Speaker 2: get more of the homemade variety, I know my beloved
Speaker 2: Wegmans has now started making them. If you could find
Speaker 2: a good Mexican restaurant. All of the Mexican restaurants generally
Speaker 2: make their own tortilla chips. See, I ride with Freedo's tie. Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna make some Freedo pie. So on the same lines, Yes,
Speaker 2: I want.
Speaker 1: That salty crunch with not chili and melt some cheese
Speaker 1: or something like that. Love a Freedo pie? Okay. Next question, abbot,
Speaker 1: longtime reball or big time Michigan fan. Yeah, and we
Speaker 1: compare this with somebody also asked, is this a make
Speaker 1: or break here for Jim Harvey. I don't believe so,
Speaker 1: but you know what, there is some subtlety of that question.
Speaker 1: I think we can get into Michigan goes to Notre Dame,
Speaker 1: two East Lansing to Columbus and home against Wisconsin and
Speaker 1: Penn State. Any possible way they can improve on an
Speaker 1: eight and fourth season on a crucial year for Jim Harbaugh.
Speaker 1: I think so. I absolutely think so. I think so.
Speaker 2: If you look at Michigan, they bring back a lot
Speaker 2: the shape Patterson thing I think has the potential to
Speaker 2: make Michigan a lot better in a hurry. If eligible, Yeah,
Speaker 2: If eligible, sure, I'm not sure which way Notre Dame
Speaker 2: is headed. To be perfectly honest, Okay, you could make
Speaker 2: a case that you're not sure which way things are
Speaker 2: headed for Michigan State. Two Columbus is always a struggle
Speaker 2: home against Wisconsin. I think has better prosper this year
Speaker 2: then it did last season when they had to go
Speaker 2: on the road to Wisconsin, just because the Shape Patterson
Speaker 2: thing could bring with I think a little bit more
Speaker 2: offense and uh Penn State. Penn State lost a lot
Speaker 2: as well. So yeah, my short answer, if there is
Speaker 2: such a thing is that they can absolutely improve on
Speaker 2: eight and.
Speaker 1: Four Michigan if everything's clicking correctly. And I don't know
Speaker 1: if you saw there's like a Wilton Spate thing with
Speaker 1: If Shape Patterson is ineligible, maybe he'll come back now
Speaker 1: to ann Arbor. He's open to it. So and you know,
Speaker 1: at his best, Wilton Spate is pretty good. And if
Speaker 1: Michigan's defense is what it has been the last couple
Speaker 1: of years, that's fine. Pretty good at quarterback is fine
Speaker 1: with a defense that has a capability to play on
Speaker 1: that high level. They have perhaps one of the best
Speaker 1: three inside defensive line duos, and Aubrey Solomon and Rashaun Gary.
Speaker 1: Devin Bush had a nice freshman year. They relied on
Speaker 1: youth in the secondary and for the most part held
Speaker 1: up really well. They're recruiting well again, They'll get healthier
Speaker 1: at offensive skill positions, and there's no way the offensive
Speaker 1: line can be as woeful as it was against the
Speaker 1: better teams on their schedule last year. So I think
Speaker 1: Michigan will be improved. I mean, there's now the sort
Speaker 1: of NCAA rule discussion about, Okay, maybe we only let
Speaker 1: players transfer without sitting out if their coach leaves or
Speaker 1: is fired, which would that would be a Shape Patterson thing, right,
Speaker 1: you freeze being let go. Whatever. So I think Michigan's
Speaker 1: in pretty good shape, especially the teams he mentioned. You
Speaker 1: mentioned uncertainty about Notre Dame, especially since that's Week one,
Speaker 1: so Notre Dame and or Michigan could transform into something
Speaker 1: in the middle of the year. But they go to
Speaker 1: East Lancing, which was a winnable game, and it has
Speaker 1: been a winnable game for them. They just haven't gotten
Speaker 1: over that hump recently. They go to Columbus, which will
Speaker 1: be pretty much impossible. I have a lot of high
Speaker 1: expectations for Dwayne Haskins probably who is going to be
Speaker 1: starting quarterback, maybe Tamar tell whatever home against Wisconsin. Could
Speaker 1: they win that game thirteen ten. Sure, of course they could.
Speaker 1: Penn State loses what three of their top four pass catchers,
Speaker 1: their offensive coordinator, a good chunk of that excellent defense,
Speaker 1: and perhaps the best all around all purposed offensive skill
Speaker 1: player they've ever had. Yep. So it's not a bad
Speaker 1: year to be improving and returning a ton of talent
Speaker 1: for Michigan. But in terms of make or break tie,
Speaker 1: because we have the end of that question with crucial
Speaker 1: year and then I think it's Jason who said make
Speaker 1: or break here, Jason Horvath, longtime for baller, what does
Speaker 1: that question mean to you?
Speaker 2: To me, it means something different than I think was
Speaker 2: intended by the question asker.
Speaker 1: Okay, what does it mean?
Speaker 2: I think you need to look at Jim harbausch track
Speaker 2: record of burning himself out at places, and I wonder if,
Speaker 2: even if he does improve on eight and four, say
Speaker 2: he gets to nine and three, if there are people
Speaker 2: within the Michigan community who don't view that as good
Speaker 2: enough and taken in concert with Jim Harbaugh's normal m O,
Speaker 2: which is burning himself out after a couple of years,
Speaker 2: if that weird cocktail isn't enough to see him off
Speaker 2: to another coaching locale.
Speaker 1: Is it burning himself out or burning others out on
Speaker 1: the Jim Harbaugh experience allegedly probably a little of both.
Speaker 1: And I think player wise, I think people like him.
Speaker 1: I think the players, you know, obviously he's recruiting. This
Speaker 1: is not a matter of players not having a choice
Speaker 1: and being drafted by the forty nine ers or whoever
Speaker 1: they're coming to Michigan. They like what they're being sold
Speaker 1: to me. The question is when Jason asked make or
Speaker 1: break here, is it a make or break here for
Speaker 1: phase one of the Michigan and Jim Harbaugh era, Like
Speaker 1: is there going to be a retool of like, all right,
Speaker 1: this is what we are now going to focus on
Speaker 1: an offense because I've lost a couple of assistants, or
Speaker 1: we just stop seeing eye to eye, or this is
Speaker 1: how we're going to work defense because you know what,
Speaker 1: maybe you know I'm just making this up. You know,
Speaker 1: a linebackers coach or Don Brown or whoever says, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think I just need to change of scenery. So
Speaker 1: that I think is the make or break of phase one.
Speaker 1: I think Michigan is going to be very good this year.
Speaker 1: I have a lot of faith in them. I'm just
Speaker 1: worried about those sort of close games that require you
Speaker 1: to have a quarterback that's you know, you're two forty
Speaker 1: one left and you're down five. What does that offense
Speaker 1: look like, you know, when they really have to move
Speaker 1: the ball through the air. Whatever, I'm with you. And yeah,
Speaker 1: if it's Shaye Patterson, I have more confidence than if
Speaker 1: it were Brandon Peters or Dyl McCaffrey or John o'corn,
Speaker 1: who I assure you will not be playing this year now.
Speaker 1: But those are my thoughts. And yeah, the schedule's tough,
Speaker 1: but not impossible to me.
Speaker 2: Right, Let's go one more question here before we got
Speaker 2: to pay some bills and we got to move quicker,
Speaker 2: because God, we got so many questions here, Dan.
Speaker 1: That's true, Let's go to Luke.
Speaker 2: I love this question, by the way, this is a
Speaker 2: great question. What coaches in the SEC are likely to
Speaker 2: still be around when Nick Saban retires. I like this
Speaker 2: question because it requires an extra level of comprehension to
Speaker 2: try and figure out to forecast when we think Nick
Speaker 2: Saban's going to retire. Nick Saban, take a guess how
Speaker 2: old Nick Saban is. If you haven't looked this.
Speaker 1: Up nineteen years old? Hy, I have no idea. Is
Speaker 1: he what's sixty six years old?
Speaker 2: He is exactly sixty six years old?
Speaker 1: Is that's true?
Speaker 2: He will turn sixty seven on Halloween Robins Dan this
Speaker 2: coming year. So not a spring chicken in the coaching world,
Speaker 2: in the greater employment world. How many years do you think,
Speaker 2: realistically we get out of Nick Saban?
Speaker 1: Oh man, what a great generic. And I don't you
Speaker 1: for this, it's just the off season question. Every year.
Speaker 1: Let's put a date. Let's put a date on it
Speaker 1: of he retires or for whatever reason, leaves after the
Speaker 1: twenty twenty twenty season, twenty ten around when he's like
Speaker 1: seventy years old. Seventy years old?
Speaker 2: Okay, so let's just say three full season for the
Speaker 2: purposes of argument, three full seasons.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: I'm going to pull up the SEC coaching list here
Speaker 2: and we're going to figure this out. We're going to
Speaker 2: set an over under in the same manner that we
Speaker 2: set an over under by the way, for Link Kiffin
Speaker 2: and how many coaching jobs, how many head coaching jobs
Speaker 2: he would have? Yeah, in his full career, it's still
Speaker 2: an ongoing little over under.
Speaker 1: But okay, here we go.
Speaker 2: Let's start in the SEC East. I think it's likely
Speaker 2: that Kirby Smart's still going to be there, So that's one.
Speaker 1: Dang.
Speaker 2: Will mush Champ at South Carolina I will put decidedly
Speaker 2: in the maybe category.
Speaker 1: No, you got no no fence sitting here, Ty, I'll
Speaker 1: say no. We're counting digits, integers.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say no. Okay, so we have one Kentucky.
Speaker 2: I'm also inclined to say no. Missouri and Barry Odom.
Speaker 1: I have no idea. No fence sitting.
Speaker 2: Why this is a two person operation. You can answer too.
Speaker 2: I know I'm saying no. All right, let's say no.
Speaker 2: So so far we have Kirby Smart, Uh, Florida, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna say yes, it'll be there too. Vanderbilt I say no, Nope.
Speaker 2: And Tennessee I say yes with Jeremy Pruett. Sure he
Speaker 2: just got there. He better be there in three years.
Speaker 1: Three three to three.
Speaker 2: Auburn and Gus Malsan, I'm gonna say no. I think
Speaker 2: he goes else at some point.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, Alabama, Nick Saban, I guess they're out. Given this question.
Speaker 2: Coach or Geron at LSU, I say no, I say no,
Speaker 2: Joe moorehead at Mississippi State is very interesting.
Speaker 1: But I say yes, that said, could Joe moorehead be
Speaker 1: a Willie Taggart type situation potentially where he finally has
Speaker 1: this opportunity to coach at a major place Power five
Speaker 1: conference and then something unexpected and huge opens up that
Speaker 1: perhaps given where he's from and what he grew I
Speaker 1: don't know who he grew up rooting for, but like
Speaker 1: it would not be completely unheard of that Notre Dame
Speaker 1: opened up now right, No, no, and if he had,
Speaker 1: if he had a really good eight and four year
Speaker 1: from Mississippi State.
Speaker 2: Sure, So we're up to four mm HM, Texas A
Speaker 2: and M I think is a given because they signed
Speaker 2: Jimbo through the year three thousand. Yep, all miss I say.
Speaker 1: No, nope.
Speaker 2: And Arkansas I Chad Morris.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say no, not because I don't have faith
Speaker 1: in Chad Moore. But he gets poached. Yeah, I could
Speaker 1: see that happening, all right.
Speaker 2: So if we set that over under at five and
Speaker 2: a half, I think that's a good line, the same
Speaker 2: as our Lane Kiffen career head coaching.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I take the under stints line, not because I
Speaker 1: don't want any of these coaches to succeed and improve
Speaker 1: and be fun and great TV for years to come.
Speaker 1: But we're talking about the SEC. That's a great question,
Speaker 1: thank you, Luis.
Speaker 2: Five and a half is the over under coaches that
Speaker 2: will still be around when Nick Saban retires by our
Speaker 2: forecast in the year twenty twenty or after three full seasons?
Speaker 1: Good one.
Speaker 2: All right, Daniel. We've talked about these guys before, but
Speaker 2: not for a while. MVMT. Oh yeah, all right. Now,
Speaker 2: I know you where your movement watch on as we
Speaker 2: speak on your wrist frequently. I know you get compliments
Speaker 2: about your watch. But a lot's happened since we last
Speaker 2: heard from our friends over at MVMT. The company's grown.
Speaker 2: Over two million watches have now been sold in one
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty plus countries. They continue to revolutionize fashion
Speaker 2: in the belief that style shouldn't break the bank. They've
Speaker 2: doubled their number of watches. They're now selling high quality sunglasses,
Speaker 2: women's bracelets.
Speaker 1: Really, yeah, it's a way of life.
Speaker 2: Our friends over at MVMT they've put together the perfect
Speaker 2: interactive guide to make Valentine's Day shopping as painless as possible.

Speaker 2: join the movie. You know what, ty there is nothing
Speaker 2: on my person shoes, pants, shirts, glasses, whatever that I
Speaker 2: receive more comments and compliments, and yeah, I need one
Speaker 2: of those. Do you like yours about my MVMT watch.
Speaker 2: That's one hundred percent truth.
Speaker 1: Since we did our first campaign, they were kind enough
Speaker 1: to send us watches. You know, I'm into analog wearables, Tye.
Speaker 1: I am one hundred percent into analog wearables. I know
Speaker 1: you like the government tracking you on your wrist, but
Speaker 1: not I And this thing, this watch, it's a brown
Speaker 1: leather watch. And what I like about it too is
Speaker 1: on the website it tells you how big the face is. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I like that circumference talk, sure, sure, sure,
Speaker 1: and you get it. You get it in bunches on
Speaker 1: the MVMT. Is it circumference, is it diameter? What am
Speaker 1: I looking for here? But whatever it is, the geometry
Speaker 1: is right. Because some people don't like that oversized watch.
Speaker 1: Some people have dainty risks. Some people have big, thick risks,
Speaker 1: and they want to know how big they're watches if
Speaker 1: they're ordering it online. Now that I see, if they
Speaker 1: have sunglasses, and I'm going to say it, Tie is
Speaker 1: a pretty good price point for quality looking sunglasses. It's
Speaker 1: not bad. I'm looking at it too. I'm I'm a
Speaker 1: huge fan, all right. Well this is also also true,
Speaker 1: and this is just it speaks to the quality of
Speaker 1: MVMT tie. This is one from the heart. At my
Speaker 1: bachelor party in New Orleans, Louisiana, I was taken to
Speaker 1: an adult establishment. Huh and these are not light Tie,
Speaker 1: These are not you know, the light the house lights
Speaker 1: are not on in these places. Sure, two different employees
Speaker 1: commented on my watch in the dark. It just stood out.
Speaker 1: And these employees are of the highest taste. So it
Speaker 1: was a great experience. And shout out to MVMT for
Speaker 1: making dreams come true.
Speaker 2: Are we certain it was because they liked the watch
Speaker 2: and they weren't just trying to maybe get US American currency.
Speaker 1: You know, Ty, when I'm thinking about MVMT, my heart's
Speaker 1: always in the right place, So I couldn't speak to that.
Speaker 2: Fair enough, fair enough, Let's go to Irwin. Yeah, which
Speaker 2: quarterbacks will be the early front runners for the Heisman?
Speaker 2: And he throws out a few names here, Khalil tate
Speaker 2: to a TAGAVLOA good Ty, you are nailing it, Jake
Speaker 2: from Jared Stidham. Trace McSorley will grear. I will say this,
Speaker 2: and I don't have it in front of me, so
Speaker 2: forgive me for not putting in the requisite amount of
Speaker 2: research here. I did look at some early heisman lines,
Speaker 2: and I remember looking at it and thinking that the
Speaker 2: line for Trace mcsoorly looked astonishingly low. Now, Hi's bets
Speaker 2: are preposterous, especially at this early stage in the game,
Speaker 2: but Trace mcsorly will clearly be the centerpiece of that
Speaker 2: Penn State offense. You could make a case that even
Speaker 2: though Saquon Barkley got most of the love this year,
Speaker 2: Trace mcsorly was still the engine that made that offense
Speaker 2: go and it was pretty.
Speaker 1: Good, perhaps more consistent. Yeah, absolutely so.
Speaker 2: I think Trace mcsrely if I were a betting man,
Speaker 2: and I am, if he were out there at that
Speaker 2: price point whatever it was, maybe like twenty or twenty
Speaker 2: five to one, something ridiculous. Trace mcsorely, of all those names,
Speaker 2: I think would be the best bet, just because I
Speaker 2: know everything runs through him. I don't have a ton
Speaker 2: of faith in Khalil Tate, even though I'm all about
Speaker 2: Khalil Tate, but new system and maybe not consistent enough
Speaker 2: at this point. Tua's got so many other players on
Speaker 2: his team. I think it's tough. Jake FROMM I don't
Speaker 2: know if the stats will be there for him to
Speaker 2: be a Heisman caliber quarterback. You can make a case
Speaker 2: for Stidham, You can make a case for Greer, although
Speaker 2: I don't know if the wins will be there in
Speaker 2: the manner that they need to be to be a
Speaker 2: true Heisman contender. So, of all those names, McSorley is
Speaker 2: my guy.
Speaker 1: When I try and this is nobody knows what they're
Speaker 1: talking about, but this is my particular brand of not
Speaker 1: knowing what I'm talking about. When I look at these names,
Speaker 1: as well as any other big returning quarterback names, of
Speaker 1: which there are not many. There really aren't. I mean,
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert would be a name I would add to this.
Speaker 1: Just yeah, yeah, he did went healthy. Whatever I want
Speaker 1: to see, you know, perhaps an offensive line that returns
Speaker 1: a good amount, not every doesn't have to be everything.
Speaker 1: Good amount consistency and lack of attrition among offensive coaches.
Speaker 1: I think it's fair just the comfort level, you know,
Speaker 1: just like Baker Mayfield. Having Lincoln Riley around another year,
Speaker 1: even with Bob Stoop stepping down, I thought was enormous,
Speaker 1: you know, because Oklahoma lost so much in the way
Speaker 1: of skill talent, But the Lincoln Riley consistency I thought
Speaker 1: was a big deal. Schedule certainly can improve things, which
Speaker 1: is I think why Khalil Tate to me coaching gone.
Speaker 1: But probably now that we're hearing different things, perhaps for
Speaker 1: the best Kevin someone inheriting a talented quarterback and experience,
Speaker 1: we've seen it happen.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: It's not a one to one comparison of Khalil Tate
Speaker 1: to Johnny Manziel, but returns what Chun Brown, Tony Allison.
Speaker 1: The schedule Arizona misses I believe both Washington and Stanford
Speaker 1: cross division conference, which is pretty ideal. I don't think
Speaker 1: they have any real tough road games. So Khalil Tate
Speaker 1: is in good shape, has good running backs. Tua is
Speaker 1: sort of an unknown because we've seen him play a
Speaker 1: half of important football.
Speaker 2: He was seven to one if I remember correctly, right
Speaker 2: on the odds that I saw.
Speaker 1: He'll have the stage. Yeah, Calvin Ridley gone, Brian Dable
Speaker 1: mentioned gone, but he'll have, you know, all the weapons
Speaker 1: in the world. His line should be good from will
Speaker 1: be very interesting to me. I think that is more interesting.
Speaker 2: Perhaps I don't think you'll have the stats he wanted
Speaker 2: the stats.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he won't, but he'll be counted on more. Without
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle and Nick Chubb. He will have to do
Speaker 1: with DeAndre Swift. Yeah. No, I think they will be fine.
Speaker 1: But the fact that and part of the line is
Speaker 1: pretty young and succeeded last year. The concern for me
Speaker 1: is Trace McSorley, the Joe moorehead factor, losing what Dayshawn Hamilton,
Speaker 1: Mike Kasicki, Sakwon Barkley, Jawan Johnson's back and is a
Speaker 1: huge weapon. They have a I think a red shirt
Speaker 1: freshman who should be was kJ Hamlery you want to
Speaker 1: talk about kJ Hamler I think Will Greer is actually
Speaker 1: just in terms of what we've seen from Dana Holgerson
Speaker 1: quarterback with experience in the system and the ability to
Speaker 1: identify really good receivers year over year. David Sill's coming
Speaker 1: back as a huge red zone target, I think that
Speaker 1: is probably of that list my my pick.
Speaker 2: All Rightoh okay, next, a real quick one here from Adrian,
Speaker 2: who says where will Alex Hornybrook rank among Big ten
Speaker 2: quarterbacks in twenty eighteen? How horny are you for Alex Hornybrook? Dan?
Speaker 1: In which half? In the second half? I am hot
Speaker 1: and bothered? Tye, Yeah, I am sweating pants a gett
Speaker 1: a little tight. I'm ready to be energized for Alex
Speaker 1: Hornybrook in the second half.
Speaker 2: Well, number one is obviously Elijah Sindelar.
Speaker 1: I mean, second year in a Jeff bram offense tie
Speaker 1: that could prove to me pretty good. I'm just tye.
Speaker 2: I'm not putting him over Hornybrook. Come on, okay, but
Speaker 2: I think I put Trace McSorley over Hornybrook. Do you
Speaker 2: put a little workie over Alex Hornybrook. I probably don't.
Speaker 1: I don't think I do yet, but I think they
Speaker 1: are both. They both should be very good this fall.
Speaker 2: I'm not putting Clayton Thorson, who is coming back for
Speaker 2: his eighteenth year, over Alex Hornybrook.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's just turning in his dissertation. He'll get his
Speaker 1: pH d. And he's ready to go Ohio State. We
Speaker 1: put Haskins above him, So Haskins is interesting. Haskins has
Speaker 1: we haven't seen him well, we saw him a little bit,
Speaker 1: a little bit in yeah, in relief in the Michigan
Speaker 1: game where he was If he looks like what he
Speaker 1: looked like in that very small sample, he will be
Speaker 1: one of the best three quarterbacks in the country.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh.
Speaker 1: He is the highest ceiling of anybody, I would say
Speaker 1: because of the offensive skill, talent, the offensive line, and
Speaker 1: you know, reshuffling of offense. Now I think Ryan Day
Speaker 1: is going to be calling plays. Maybe we'll see some
Speaker 1: more creativity with a pure passer like Dwayne Haskins. He
Speaker 1: is the highest ceiling I would go right now in
Speaker 1: terms of ceiling and what we've seen of these players.
Speaker 1: Trace McSorley is the best returning, the best option to me,
Speaker 1: best quarterback.
Speaker 2: Shaye Patterson probably is a higher ceiling in terms of
Speaker 2: shape pass sir, But uh yeah, I like what Penn
Speaker 2: State has more than what Michigan has right now. Now
Speaker 2: I'm not saying over Trace, I'm saying over Horny Pops.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Yeah, I would say Trace Haskins, Shay Horny,
Speaker 1: the worky. I might put Nate Stanley right there. I
Speaker 1: forgot it, and he's super he would I think it was.
Speaker 1: I don't know if he like threw down field a
Speaker 1: ton and he needs to be more accurate.
Speaker 2: I don't think he had an incredible interception ratio. He was, Yeah,
Speaker 2: he was.
Speaker 1: He was accurate, he protected the ball. Wow, I'd put
Speaker 1: him there. And this is all to say. By putting
Speaker 1: THEAWORKI fourth or fifth or whatever. Brian Lawurki's really good. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: It's just a particularly good upper half I think right
Speaker 1: now of the Big ten in terms of quarterback and
Speaker 1: returning experience.
Speaker 2: Finally, here in our pure football section of the question worksheet,
Speaker 2: Andy wants to know what non conference matchup, aside from
Speaker 2: annual rivalry games, are you most excited for in twenty eighteen,
Speaker 2: So thankfully about a week ago, our friend Richard Johnson,
Speaker 2: over an espianation put together a list of not only
Speaker 2: non conference games in twenty eighteen, but pretty much through
Speaker 2: like the year twenty thirty.
Speaker 1: One best of the best.
Speaker 2: Richard Johnson went, he went all the way out there
Speaker 2: to try and give us a feel for what we
Speaker 2: should be looking forward to for many years to come.
Speaker 2: The one that jumps out to me other than Michigan
Speaker 2: at Notre Dame, which for obvious reasons I think is
Speaker 2: you know, one of my answers here, UCLA at Oklahoma
Speaker 2: to me is interesting, Yeah, because we've got a new
Speaker 2: system at UCLA with Chip or Chip Kelly. We've got
Speaker 2: Oklahoma without Baker Mayfield, still very well positioned for the
Speaker 2: future given all the talent that they've got there on
Speaker 2: their depth chart. But feels to me like a game
Speaker 2: where a lot of points.
Speaker 1: I think that's a really good pick to see what
Speaker 1: Oklahoma is going to look like early on, Kyler Murray,
Speaker 1: a lot of returning Rodnie Anderson's back, right, I believe, Yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's in the Heisman odds consideration, the top twenty thirty. Whatever.
Speaker 2: It is like even if u c LA doesn't win,
Speaker 2: that game. I think there will be enough of a
Speaker 2: pyrotechnic display on offense really on both sides, to make
Speaker 2: it a fun game to watch.
Speaker 1: Sure, I would add I think Auburn Washington, I believe
Speaker 1: in in Atlanta.
Speaker 2: It's in Atlanta, It's in Atlanta. Excuse me, Yeah, good game.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think Ole Miss, Texas Tech is in Houston.
Speaker 1: Auburn Washington me with Washington being the clear right now,
Speaker 1: I think alone class of the Pac twelve, with what
Speaker 1: they return on offense, they still need to find a
Speaker 1: big play receiver. They still are missing that. But Jake
Speaker 1: Browning as a senior Miles Gaskin back against what should
Speaker 1: once again be a pretty light out Auburn defense. With
Speaker 1: but they return, I think that's going to be pretty fun.
Speaker 1: It'll be a pretty partisan crowd being in Atlanta, like
Speaker 1: Chris Peterson, with you know, an entire offseason prepare and
Speaker 1: to figure things out Auburn against a creative offensive mind.
Speaker 1: Gotten A struggled in the bowl game. So I think
Speaker 1: that's I think we might be sleeping on FAU.
Speaker 2: Oklahoma early in the year. Week one, week one.
Speaker 1: Come on, I know. And also honestly, like I'm excited
Speaker 1: about Michigan, Notre Dame, Arizona, Houston. I think that game
Speaker 1: is at Houston. We have Big at Oliver, Big Khalil Tates.
Speaker 1: I think that could be fun. I just that's my
Speaker 1: low key answer. My high key answer is Auburn Washington.
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to another question here, Dan, you
Speaker 2: get to pick before we pay another bill.
Speaker 1: Okay, so we asked for what Super Bowl food questions? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was part of it. Ratings. Andy Neuberg wants to
Speaker 1: know longtime reballer ratings on any Buffalo foods. So that
Speaker 1: is to say, buffalo sauce, some kind of mixture of
Speaker 1: hot sauce and butter and incorporating them into Super Bowl
Speaker 1: snacks as examples. It gives buffalo chicken dip, wings, pasta.
Speaker 1: Can you make buffalo pasta? I don't see why not
Speaker 1: you toss a pasta in some sauce. It sounds dreadful.
Speaker 1: I think if you had maybe a buffalo chicken pasta,
Speaker 1: so it's sort of like a buffalo chicken pasta salad. Maybe,
Speaker 1: oh god, maybe it's chilled. I don't know. It sounds
Speaker 1: fine to me.
Speaker 2: Buffalo chicken dip, I think is number one.
Speaker 1: I've had that, and I didn't have it growing up.
Speaker 1: I didn't know it existed, and I have in New
Speaker 1: York and it was very good.
Speaker 2: I think that's number one, followed followed very closely by
Speaker 2: buffalo chicken wings. And the reason I put the dip
Speaker 2: above the wings is because the wings tend to be messy,
Speaker 2: and that you.
Speaker 1: Gotta have a dip.
Speaker 2: You gotta have a dip at a Super Bowl party,
Speaker 2: and I think a really good buffalo chicken dip can
Speaker 2: be the talk of the party.
Speaker 1: I think that's right. I've only had maybe once or twice,
Speaker 1: and it was very good both times. There By the way,
Speaker 1: if you want to feel fake healthy and eat vegetables,
Speaker 1: buffalo cucumbers with a little bit if you there's like
Speaker 1: a crumbly cheese that you like, take healthy. I like
Speaker 1: blue tie. Toss some cukes in buffalo sauce with like
Speaker 1: a crumbly cheese, Hukes cues baby geez. Yeah. Buffalo collie
Speaker 1: also really good. But yeah, I would say the dip
Speaker 1: is probably the move. Any sort of buffalo dip for
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl is the move. And we have a
Speaker 1: follow up not from Andy, which is a good questions
Speaker 1: from Gary. He said, if you had a friend from
Speaker 1: a foreign country get in this headspace tie okay, and
Speaker 1: wanted to give them their first authentic American Super Bowl
Speaker 1: party experience where you're quintessential staple foods that have to
Speaker 1: be there. So I would argue, and I'm about to Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't think there's quinn essential and whatever you do well,
Speaker 1: whatever is important to you, and yours are quintessential. But
Speaker 1: if you had this foreign friend, a Latvia and chum,
Speaker 1: coming to Allentown, PA, and he just happened to be
Speaker 1: there Sunday, what are you serving for Christaps.
Speaker 2: Kristavs you need I'm going to go back to the
Speaker 2: well here, but I think you need a really good dip.
Speaker 1: You need a dip.
Speaker 2: You need a really good dip in whether it's a
Speaker 2: buffalo what dip are you doing well? Non buffalo chicken addition? Yeah, see,
Speaker 2: I'm kind of boring. I tend to go in the
Speaker 2: direction of a really good taco dip. We've talked with
Speaker 2: on previous shows. But a really good taco dip not
Speaker 2: necessarily difficult to make. But is that like a multi
Speaker 2: layer dip? Is that what you're a multi layered dip?
Speaker 2: You got some sour cream on there. You got some
Speaker 2: cheese in there mixed with the sour cream. You got
Speaker 2: a good salsa that you layer down first, sprinkle some
Speaker 2: cheese on the top of it. A really good taco dip,
Speaker 2: I think is essential.
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, five layer, seven layer dip. I think that's
Speaker 1: a good answer. I would I would throw guak into
Speaker 1: the equation. Yeah, yeah, sure, quawk nice and straightforward, although
Speaker 1: I'd give yourself the option if you're willing not to
Speaker 1: do chips with the guak, but to crisp up quesadillas
Speaker 1: and cut them into triangles, because pretty good vehicles for
Speaker 1: both quak and salsa at the same time, stands up
Speaker 1: to it a little bit better than a thinner chip.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think what other you know. I would
Speaker 1: go with something like, what is more American than like
Speaker 1: a French onion dip type?
Speaker 2: Either that or I was going to say like some
Speaker 2: sort of pizza, and I.
Speaker 1: Realize how ridiculous that sounds for me to say, what's
Speaker 1: more American than a French onion? Yeah?
Speaker 2: But yeah, I have a hard time with this question
Speaker 2: because I feel like if you don't have an annual
Speaker 2: Super Bowl party, it might be difficult to answer. What
Speaker 2: the quintessential Super Bowl food is Just a lot of
Speaker 2: bar food, a lot of football game day food.
Speaker 1: Have a big old bowl of M and M's or
Speaker 1: Reese's pieces and gallons of Eminem's tie All right, real quick, Dan? Next,

Speaker 2: It's like an Indo Chino suit. But it's a question.
Speaker 1: This is this is a utility question, Tye. I like
Speaker 1: this one a lot.
Speaker 2: This is right up my alley, like a ninety two
Speaker 2: mile an hour fastball, right down the pike. A nice
Speaker 2: meaty question, he says. How was your experience tie as
Speaker 2: a cord cutter during college football season? You had mentioned
Speaker 2: sometime in the summer that you ditched your traditional cable
Speaker 2: TV subscription in favor of YouTube TV.
Speaker 1: How did it go?
Speaker 2: Did you have any issues with buffering or games not
Speaker 2: playing smoothly? What about watching games that were thirty to
Speaker 2: ninety seconds behind quote unquote live TV? How did that work?
Speaker 2: With social media? So on and so forth? Now listen,
Speaker 2: both you and I are I guess now what would
Speaker 2: be considered cord cutters, right right, neither one of us
Speaker 2: have a traditional cable TV subscription. You've gone completely cold turkey.
Speaker 2: You're just living off of passwords and other streaming services, right.
Speaker 1: Son, I'm gonna be honest here, Ty, This is a
Speaker 1: if we're here in the snow globe of honesty. Yeah,
Speaker 1: my wife likes cable television a whole bunch WHOA and
Speaker 1: I have not been able so I had cut the
Speaker 1: cord when I was living alone, but when we moved
Speaker 1: in together, our options were such that I don't remember,
Speaker 1: like we didn't have Bravo with Sling at the time,
Speaker 1: or we didn't have HGTV with another one. I don't know.
Speaker 1: There was something that where she just like didn't want
Speaker 1: to navigate with a Roku. And that is not a
Speaker 1: battle I was willing to fight, Like, no, I want
Speaker 1: there's some hills when you're married that aren't worth dying on. Now,
Speaker 1: that's not well for you. I have a lot of
Speaker 1: thoughts about this having done it, and I am pushing
Speaker 1: to do it once again. But you are the one
Speaker 1: that can stand alone with YouTube TV specifically, I can
Speaker 1: talk about Sling continue.
Speaker 2: YouTube TV has been a revelation.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I won't.
Speaker 2: I won't go into the full economics because that's not
Speaker 2: exactly made for a entertaining podcast.
Speaker 1: But how much is not not let's talk. I mean
Speaker 1: that's an element.
Speaker 2: YouTube TV is thirty five bucks a month. They're not
Speaker 2: paying They're not paying us, by the way, for the sponsorship.
Speaker 2: This is a totally organic question.
Speaker 1: This is college football. This is a thing.
Speaker 2: But this was actually the solid wife's idea. She was
Speaker 2: the one pushing it. I was the one who was
Speaker 2: a bit resistant to the idea. But YouTube TV came
Speaker 2: into our area, the Philadelphia area. We were one of
Speaker 2: the first five cities to become eligible for YouTube TV.
Speaker 2: In combination with changing our cable plan, cutting traditional cable,
Speaker 2: and also switching up our internet provider, we're saving somewhere
Speaker 2: in the neighborhood of about one hundred dollars a month, damn,
Speaker 2: which is not a small number.
Speaker 1: No, that is significant, twelve hundred dollars a year to
Speaker 1: support your multi layer dip habit.
Speaker 2: I have not had any issues with watching the games
Speaker 2: that are most relevant to me. There have been a
Speaker 2: few rare occasions where I've needed to piggyback off someone
Speaker 2: else's Pack twelve network subscription. But for the most part, Dan,
Speaker 2: I think if you're not a college football mutant like
Speaker 2: you and I are, a service like YouTube TV, which
Speaker 2: gives you a lot of really strong sports options, is
Speaker 2: a good option, a really good option. I did not
Speaker 2: have any issues watching the games that were most relevant.
Speaker 2: I'd say to about ninety percent of the people who
Speaker 2: listen to this show, so it worked really well during
Speaker 2: the season. They are in the process of creating a
Speaker 2: Roku TV app, which will be perfect. Then you'll be
Speaker 2: able to navigate YouTube TV. So what do you use
Speaker 2: it on right now? We just chrome cast it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we chrome cast from the app directly to our TV.
Speaker 2: They gave me a free chrome cast with my first
Speaker 2: month's subscription.
Speaker 1: Makes sense.
Speaker 2: But before long they're going to have a Roku app,
Speaker 2: so you'll be able to navigate your television just like
Speaker 2: you would normally. You get unlimited DVR, you get a
Speaker 2: bunch of really good options. It's not perfect, it doesn't
Speaker 2: offer everything, and I'm sure people out there will find
Speaker 2: something wrong with the chrome casting option, or there's something
Speaker 2: that I've forgotten to mention. I'm sure, but I have
Speaker 2: had no issues with it. The social media thing has
Speaker 2: been probably the only downside to it.
Speaker 1: Would you go as far as saying it's a bugaboo,
Speaker 1: It's a.
Speaker 2: Bugaboo, A little bit of a bugaboo, okay, in that
Speaker 2: it's about thirty to maybe forty seconds behind. Yeah, but
Speaker 2: I'm willing to live with it because I'm saving one
Speaker 2: hundred dollars a month.
Speaker 1: Do you have a do need with YouTube? Because you
Speaker 1: get you get CBS.
Speaker 2: I get CBS, you get all the local channels, all
Speaker 2: my wall, the local chanels.
Speaker 1: So yeah, depending on because I don't think Sling has CBS.
Speaker 1: And you can look at the various lineups, you know
Speaker 1: something doesn't. I don't know if you know PlayStation View
Speaker 1: has all of the college networks. You know, one will
Speaker 1: have no Big ten and one will have no Pac
Speaker 1: twelve and whatever. Most of them have the ESPN and
Speaker 1: Fox family of networks. What I would definitely recommend, as
Speaker 1: somebody who's done this before, the over the air antennas
Speaker 1: in most places really well, you can buy them to
Speaker 1: like varying strengths like whatever, like Killer Hurtz. I don't
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about, but they're very small now.
Speaker 1: They look like mouse paths. You can get them on
Speaker 1: an Amazon so you live within dozens of miles fifty
Speaker 1: miles yeah, yeah, so those work really nicely. For network channels.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know, there used to be
Speaker 1: a thing that what was the arrow that you can
Speaker 1: record stuff with. I don't think that exists anymore. But
Speaker 1: like YouTube, TV has a DVR built in I believe, yep,
Speaker 1: unlimited DVR. So I would just whatever the college network
Speaker 1: is for you. Don't worry about Twitter. Twitter is the
Speaker 1: worst thing that exists. Don't worry about the social mediaing
Speaker 1: behind social media. Just do it for convenience, do it
Speaker 1: for quality, and you can get the over the air
Speaker 1: for you're missing CBS and you want to see SEC
Speaker 1: games whatever, But go with the lineup that works best
Speaker 1: for you. Price it all out. It's it's pretty good.
Speaker 1: I was very happy with Sling TV when I had it,
Speaker 1: and I would do it again. I would do that
Speaker 1: or YouTube again. I'm not a big cable TV watcher.
Speaker 2: I'm not either. I'm not either football yeah so either.
Speaker 1: I of course like watching Adam Amine in all of
Speaker 1: his forms on ESPN and all of our friends that
Speaker 1: do college football content. But like I don't really watch
Speaker 1: the network anymore. I think it's largely garbage. HGTV not
Speaker 1: for me. I like Top Chef on Bravo, but like
Speaker 1: I can get a Bravo app and pas.
Speaker 2: See there there are shows that the solid wife likes
Speaker 2: on HGTV and shows that shows that I'll watch with her.
Speaker 2: But you can buy those. You can buy them on
Speaker 2: a on a Google Play or Apple TV, whatever you have.
Speaker 2: And still you're coming out in front.
Speaker 1: And maybe HGTV has an app I don't know, and
Speaker 1: you can get a password for set app. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't know anything about that.
Speaker 1: Dan. Perhaps I don't know this. I'm just giving you options. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna push to do it again because Okay,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Listen, I'm who's the cable provider in
Speaker 1: your area because ours is Like, No, I don't want
Speaker 1: to I don't want to talk about that.
Speaker 2: I'm not even going to talk about them. I don't
Speaker 2: even want to say their name. A lot wars I
Speaker 2: have issues. But yeah, here is my point for anyone
Speaker 2: out there who's listening from YouTube TV. I have quietly,
Speaker 2: behind the scenes, been your best salesman and if you'd
Speaker 2: like to pay us for more ad space. Solid verbol
Speaker 2: at gmail dot com.
Speaker 1: Hit me up. What uh what cities are they in now?
Speaker 2: Like eighty cities or something?
Speaker 1: Crazy?
Speaker 2: Are they really? They're all over in New York. They're
Speaker 2: all over. Maybe it's not eighty, but it's a lot
Speaker 2: dozens available.
Speaker 1: Oh, they're in a bunch. Yeah. Ty Just before we
Speaker 1: started recording, you're like, there's no way they're in Harrisburg, Tye.
Speaker 1: Wrong again, they are in Harrisburg, Hartill, Decatur, you bet you.
Speaker 1: I don't want to drone on.
Speaker 2: Too long about cord cutting, but okay, if you got
Speaker 2: more questions, email me Josh, wait, where are we going
Speaker 2: next day?
Speaker 1: And you get to pick? All right, Um, we do
Speaker 1: have a couple other ones, but let's go. Let's stay
Speaker 1: with I like this question from Kevin, Tie because it's
Speaker 1: going to make you uncomfortable, and I have some thoughts. Okay,
Speaker 1: Kevin wants to know what can we do to make
Speaker 1: bid days more popular? Oh? God, let me repeat that.
Speaker 1: What can we do to make bid days? That's B
Speaker 1: I D E T. Yeah, more popular. It's a much
Speaker 1: better alternative to wiping dry. Okay, Okay, Tie, let's start
Speaker 1: at the beginning. Yeah, what to you? Is it a beday?
Speaker 2: That's a great question. So here is my follow up
Speaker 2: to that question. Yeah, I don't even know what a
Speaker 2: bidet is. Okay, would you like to google bidet? Please
Speaker 2: google b id e t. Let's all learn together.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm looking at it now. So a bidet is
Speaker 1: a separate seated apparatus in a bathroom.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure I knew this.
Speaker 1: After you move your bowels, you transfer to the second apparatus,
Speaker 1: which shoots a generally warm stream to clean you up. So,
Speaker 1: in fact, it's a more aggressive cleansing than your standard
Speaker 1: toilet paper, which, especially hotels whatever, could be a little
Speaker 1: thinner and not as good an experience.
Speaker 2: I'm seeing here from Walmart. It's French, a twenty three
Speaker 2: dollars portable bidet sure, which looks like the nozzle for
Speaker 2: a host.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I it's something I would skimp on.
Speaker 2: Though technically portable, maybe not logistically possible, depending on how
Speaker 2: portable you're trying to.
Speaker 1: Make it right, And it looks like there are like
Speaker 1: there's a groupon for a biday that you attached to
Speaker 1: the toilet. I I don't know.
Speaker 2: Does a biday that you get via a groupon. Yeah,
Speaker 2: really give you the benefits you're looking for. I'm not sure.
Speaker 1: No, I don't think you want to cheap out when
Speaker 1: it comes to that area. Yeah. I just the transfer
Speaker 1: to me is the tricky part because you're sort of scooting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're scooting over. And when I was in Paris with
Speaker 1: my wife a couple of years ago, now almost it
Speaker 1: was digital tie digital. Well, so there's a thing on
Speaker 1: the wall, there's a digital readout and you can choose
Speaker 1: like the motion and the temperature and the angle and
Speaker 1: the speed. So it's we've the bidet industry has its
Speaker 1: leaps and bounds tie from where it was.
Speaker 2: I can't offer I can't offer any first and experience
Speaker 2: on this.
Speaker 1: Sure it's it's thorough, ty, I'll give you that it is.
Speaker 1: It is thorough. Here's my sub question, because I don't
Speaker 1: know marketing wise what you and I can do besides
Speaker 1: look up the actual definition on our show to increase
Speaker 1: bidet awareness. But have you experimented with the non dry cleaning?
Speaker 1: I have it, if you know what I mean? You
Speaker 1: have not? No, So, camera guy Dave, who is who
Speaker 1: takes this more seriously than I have ever seen anybody
Speaker 1: take it. He is like, you know what a wet
Speaker 1: nap is. Yeah. Sure, he travels for work and he
Speaker 1: brings bags of that with him. Okay, so some people
Speaker 1: subscribe to the wet only like a wet wipe only.
Speaker 1: Some people go wet dry. Okay, to really attack the
Speaker 1: issue because you don't want to have an issue. Okay,
Speaker 1: But the next time, ty if you find yourself at
Speaker 1: a very nice hotel or a very nice home and
Speaker 1: you see a second apparatus in the bathroom, I need
Speaker 1: you to make me a promise right now. Clean that region. Tie, okay,
Speaker 1: clean that region. That's a very report back. That is
Speaker 1: what was his name, Kevin? Yeah, long time for baller,
Speaker 1: Kevin Hanson. Kevin.
Speaker 2: That is a weird question to send into people.
Speaker 1: You know, it's I think it's a worthy question. I
Speaker 1: just I would be worried with the wet wipes that
Speaker 1: there's residue or something like that. I feel like the
Speaker 1: wet dry is the move to go on the road.
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, where do you want to go next?
Speaker 1: In you get the next question, Let's go to Sean
Speaker 1: Dan and Tye. Please tell us about the most awkward
Speaker 1: date you've ever been.
Speaker 2: Knew you know what. I knew you were going to
Speaker 2: ask this damn question. Okay, Tye, No you start not okay,
Speaker 2: ty you start with this. Okay, you think about this
Speaker 2: a little bit.
Speaker 1: I have two, and they were only the only dates
Speaker 1: I went on with either of these people were first
Speaker 1: and final date with these people. One date I went
Speaker 1: on with somebody and she said, we could sort of
Speaker 1: like be obvious about this or like pretend like we're
Speaker 1: not being obvious about this, but like, can I scroll
Speaker 1: through your Instagram to like stalk you so if I
Speaker 1: have any questions?
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, that's awkward.
Speaker 1: Awkward, I guess, And so like I handed her my
Speaker 1: phone because I you know, maybe it was going to
Speaker 1: be playful. Maybe it was going to be like, ah,
Speaker 1: let's make crack some jokes. They'll be chemistry. She's just
Speaker 1: scrolling through and like, you really do like Mexican food,
Speaker 1: don't you like? Yeah? I guess. Oh, Like who's this?
Speaker 1: Like it's my brother? Yeah? That it was weird. It
Speaker 1: brought the date to a screeching halt. The other time,
Speaker 1: I went on a date with somebody who lived in
Speaker 1: Chinatown and she did not like Chinese people o, which
Speaker 1: I thought was a weird topic to bring up and
Speaker 1: a bad place to live. How does that come up?
Speaker 2: Dan?
Speaker 1: I asked what neighborhood she lived in, and she said
Speaker 1: Chinatown And she said and oh, I said something like,
Speaker 1: you don't hear about a lot of people living in Chinatown.
Speaker 1: It's just a lot of grocery stores and things like that.
Speaker 1: There's not like a part a lot of apartment buildings.
Speaker 1: And she was like, yeah, it was sort of convenient
Speaker 1: for work or something like that. She worked on a
Speaker 1: TV show And I'm like, all right. She was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: the weird part of it is I don't like Chinese people.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, just divulge it like that, sure, just on
Speaker 1: a first date. Hide the racist stuff. Yeah, no, leave
Speaker 1: that out for you. So that that was awkward, and
Speaker 1: she kept half apologizing. She's like, oh, you think I'm
Speaker 1: like a bad person now, don't you? Like No, it's
Speaker 1: just you know, just behind your passion, but not to
Speaker 1: your face. Yeah. So that those were the one and
Speaker 1: only dates with those two.
Speaker 2: I think your stories beat mine.
Speaker 1: You're bashful with the spotlight.
Speaker 2: My my awkward story was that I went on a
Speaker 2: second date on Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1: Oh, I think you've told this before.
Speaker 2: It was a second date on Valentine's Day, and it
Speaker 2: was shortly after I hurt my shoulder for the first time.
Speaker 2: So I was in a sling and the person that
Speaker 2: I was on a date with had broken her right arm,
Speaker 2: and so she was in a cast, which made it
Speaker 2: which made it very naturally awkward to begin with. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and then on top of it, given the fact that
Speaker 2: it was a second date, but there was pressure from
Speaker 2: Valentine's Day, no one was really sure how to carry on.
Speaker 1: No one really knew what to do.
Speaker 2: And we're gonna go see a movie, but then we
Speaker 2: got to the movie place and it turns out that
Speaker 2: the theater was closed. I didn't know what to do,
Speaker 2: so I got like one of those non red roses,
Speaker 2: just like kind of as but no, kind of as
Speaker 2: a gesture for Valentine's Day, Right, what do I know?
Speaker 2: The whole thing sort of went south from there.
Speaker 1: This is many moons ago. We're two weeks out from
Speaker 1: Valentine's Day ish, Yeah, so a lot of people listening
Speaker 1: could find themselves on a first date next week and
Speaker 1: then perhaps a second date.
Speaker 2: Don't make don't make too much of the fact that
Speaker 2: it's Valentine's Day, act as if it's like not even happening.
Speaker 1: If you're in my situation, here's what I would do.
Speaker 1: If it's a second or third or fourth date whatever,
Speaker 1: and you know, perhaps you've hung out at one of
Speaker 1: your places. Yeah, don't don't get flowers for a second
Speaker 1: date or third That's but it was.
Speaker 2: It wasn't like a full bouquet. It was more of
Speaker 2: just like a gag thing.
Speaker 1: You know. No, I understand, but I didn't know what
Speaker 1: to do. Yeah, I would go out to dinner. And
Speaker 1: this is easier when I guess if you're in New
Speaker 1: York and you're just walking around and it can sort
Speaker 1: of seem spontaneous, but go to dinner, maybe someplace that's
Speaker 1: near a drug store, and like, just go get candy together. Okay,
Speaker 1: so it's Valentine's Day, it's candy and it's not you know,
Speaker 1: it's a dollar, like what can't like? And then you're like, oh, here,
Speaker 1: here are you mic and Ikes? Because you're a Valentine,
Speaker 1: you're locked in Mike and Ikes, tell the story and
Speaker 1: then just move on with your life.
Speaker 2: I thought you were gonna say, go pick out some
Speaker 2: fresh flowers from somewhere on v now bustlers in New
Speaker 2: York City Street.
Speaker 1: No, no, there's a five dollars limit on the camp.
Speaker 1: You can buy it write eight or Dwayne Reid or whatever.
Speaker 2: All right, question, next question here?
Speaker 1: Do you want to go to Jordan Knight of the
Speaker 1: New Kids on the Block? Yes? Please? Okay, he probably
Speaker 1: gets it all the time. I apologize. If you were
Speaker 1: in control of the XFL, what changes would you make
Speaker 1: to make it more enjoyable to watch? We had somebody
Speaker 1: else said they wanted XFL thoughts because I guess it's
Speaker 1: coming back in a couple of years.
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty, I think is the initial plan. First off,
Speaker 2: I would not broadcast it exclusively from that spider cam. Okay,
Speaker 2: and I know that's all the rage these days and
Speaker 2: people are really into it.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 2: But as a compliment, what I would love to see
Speaker 2: are more creative camera angles, things that the XFL can
Speaker 2: pull off that the NFL might be too scared to do.
Speaker 2: So you think spider cam, I think drone cams all
Speaker 2: twenty two on third down, like the high coaches cam
Speaker 2: kind of thing. Let's get some drones hovering above the
Speaker 2: field and giving us angles that we've never seen before.
Speaker 1: God what a disaster that would be potentially, But it's
Speaker 1: the end. No, I agree, I want disasters.
Speaker 2: Let's get creative with our technology. Let's put a chip
Speaker 2: in the ball so that we know when we get
Speaker 2: over the goal line. Let's put a chip in the
Speaker 2: ball so we know when we get a first down.
Speaker 2: Putting some sort of receiver in the ball gives you
Speaker 2: all sorts of capabilities technically speaking, that the NFL has
Speaker 2: yet to embark upon that would give it a competitive advantage.
Speaker 1: Oh, I would just not broadcast it and give people
Speaker 1: DVDs of real football. I could not be less interested
Speaker 1: in the XFL. Oh, not interested at all. I So
Speaker 1: here's the thing for me. It's not because it's like
Speaker 1: a wrestling Vince McMahon thing whatever. It's not because I
Speaker 1: think it's going to be a gimmick. It's because I'm
Speaker 1: a snob and I don't want to watch super duper
Speaker 1: minor league football with super duper minor league players, super
Speaker 1: duper minor league coaches, broadcasters, whatever. I'm not interested in that.
Speaker 1: There's a reason we don't eat Thanksgiving food every Friday night.
Speaker 1: It's good to take some time off from football. I know,
Speaker 1: we do a year round podcast, and that's very strange
Speaker 1: for us to say, but we wouldn't like football as
Speaker 1: much if it went to may Right, you don't know
Speaker 1: what you got till it's gone.
Speaker 2: Ty, I don't know. If they made it cool, I'd
Speaker 2: give it. I'd give it a go. I I am
Speaker 2: not spending time with the NBA. I'm not sure this
Speaker 2: actually happens, by the way, really, I'm not sure that
Speaker 2: they're going to get this thing off the ground.
Speaker 1: I'll believe it when I see it.
Speaker 2: But my answer here, Jordan, very broadly speaking, is do
Speaker 2: cool things with technology that the NFL is too afraid
Speaker 2: to do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if they had the ball chip, if they had
Speaker 1: interesting angles and drones, if they had some of that stuff,
Speaker 1: and if there were you know, I don't if it
Speaker 1: was the NFL or College this year. I know College
Speaker 1: did a little bit having like a camera on like
Speaker 1: a go pro style camera on the referees hat. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it wasn't great this year. It didn't do much, but
Speaker 1: it was a good alpha. It was a good sort
Speaker 1: of initial test that maybe we can figure some stuff
Speaker 1: out down the road that gives us some stuff like
Speaker 1: the pylon cam I thought was pretty successful. Right, they'll
Speaker 1: try and do They'll try.
Speaker 2: And do some cool stuff with augmented reality for people
Speaker 2: who go to games or sure people who are watching
Speaker 2: at home. I think they've got some cool options on
Speaker 2: the technology side that they could pursue.
Speaker 1: I just, yeah, I don't want to watch C minus football,
Speaker 1: And I say that as somebody who had to watch
Speaker 1: a lot of bad Oregon Defense recently. All right, Dan,
Speaker 1: do you ever grow your hair out? Sophomore year of college?
Speaker 2: Yes, define what growing your hair out means to you.
Speaker 1: So it froze, it has like the jewfro thing, and
Speaker 1: then it just sort of flops, like gravity kind of
Speaker 1: takes over and it sort of looks gross and mushrooming
Speaker 1: like the guitar player from Incubus. Okay, right, Like it's
Speaker 1: not great, it's not you know all you know, all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, it just it stops poofing and it
Speaker 1: just flops. Which are not good verbs? Have you?
Speaker 2: Not?
Speaker 1: No? Not really?
Speaker 2: Okay, My hair does have a tendency to get a
Speaker 2: little about too, a little bit wacky.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: When I was down in Jamaica for my honeymoon, I
Speaker 2: had the Phil Simms thing going on where I don't
Speaker 2: know if it was the humidity or what, but it
Speaker 2: puffed out like I just hatched out of an egg.
Speaker 2: And that to me, sometimes that happens. Actually, that kind
Speaker 2: of happened when we were down in Atlanta. I thought
Speaker 2: you looked great, Tie before the live show. I had
Speaker 2: a moment. You were commenting on the hair moment that
Speaker 2: I was having beforehand. You want to say something, Ti,
Speaker 2: I'm going to connect with you on video right now. Okay, Okay, yep,
Speaker 2: I think we're connecting. Okay, I can see you. You
Speaker 2: probably can't see me.
Speaker 1: You see what's going on here? Oh wow, okay, winter
Speaker 1: Beard tie playoff. I can't super Bowl, super Bowl Beard,
Speaker 1: winter Beard. It's it's happening right here. Wow.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: It's not going to fill in on the cheeks.
Speaker 2: How many days growth is that?
Speaker 1: I think it's about a week. Okay, Yeah, you look good.
Speaker 1: That's all I got. Great.
Speaker 2: Thank you Gary for that question.
Speaker 1: Let's go one more questions.
Speaker 2: One final question, Dan, one final question here you get.
Speaker 1: Is this about the unc Charlotte forty nine ers? No?
Speaker 1: I don't want that one. Ah. No, we did get
Speaker 1: a question about Charlotte. It's gonna be tough for them
Speaker 1: to ever become a consistently solid program unless they're in
Speaker 1: Conference USA, they're gonna need a weird wash out shamed
Speaker 1: coach like Lane Kiffin or Butch Davis. So that's it.
Speaker 2: Next, let's go to Chris Let's This is a good
Speaker 2: way to close it out. Chris wants to know what
Speaker 2: is the solid verbals planned for twenty eighteen. M what
Speaker 2: do y'all got planned? I think I said job right? Yeah,
Speaker 2: y'all you nailed it.
Speaker 1: Do y'all plan on more live video to pair with
Speaker 1: the podcast?
Speaker 2: Dan? What is our official for twenty eighteen? Have we
Speaker 2: talked about this?
Speaker 1: Do we plan?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Have we ever had a plan for any singular
Speaker 2: season in which we've done a podcast?
Speaker 1: Yeah? We we're doing better and better with that. We
Speaker 1: don't have a strict plan, but yes, there is a
Speaker 1: plan to do more live video. I don't know if
Speaker 1: it'll be a Q and a thing because during the
Speaker 1: season it's very boring to look at us looking at
Speaker 1: our lab.
Speaker 2: Let me let me rephrase Chris's question. Okay, Dan Rubinstein,
Speaker 2: mm hmm, And I want you to give me a
Speaker 2: semi serious answer here.
Speaker 1: I'm ready.
Speaker 2: My guess is when I ask this, you will take
Speaker 2: it in a non serious direction. Okay, I will as
Speaker 2: is your normal empulsis. I will ignore the impulses. Let's
Speaker 2: say we've got every person of power eating out of
Speaker 2: our hands, hm, every decision maker, every influencer out there
Speaker 2: eating out of our hands. What would we want to do.
Speaker 2: We've got a blank slate. What would you want to
Speaker 2: do with the soliverbal And twenty eighteen to make it
Speaker 2: as big as possible?
Speaker 1: I would want to We're a podcast, so everybody that
Speaker 1: listens to us, everybody that found us, did so digitally, right, correct,
Speaker 1: It'd be sort of dumb to not try and grow
Speaker 1: that way, right, I agree, And I understand, Like, you know,
Speaker 1: there's TV, and it would be very cool to do
Speaker 1: something with TV, and that's always a goal. But our
Speaker 1: DNA is pretty digital. So to me, it's figuring out
Speaker 1: the right place for us, the right platform or platforms,
Speaker 1: the right concept to pair with those platforms. If it's Instagram, YouTube, Facebook.
Speaker 1: You know, we just did really cool things with Facebook
Speaker 1: and that really only made sense to do with Facebook
Speaker 1: at Media Day in Atlanta ahead of the National Championship game.
Speaker 1: But it's sort of marrying what the best idea would
Speaker 1: be living in two different places. We can be in
Speaker 1: the same place very easily. Yeah, yeah we can. We're
Speaker 1: about an hour and a half apart. But the fact
Speaker 1: that usually we're in different places. And I mean this
Speaker 1: is I'm being very serious. Give us feedback about where
Speaker 1: you like watching sports content, because that's my day job
Speaker 1: for USB Nation, and that's like our eternal challenge is
Speaker 1: what content goes where? So, if Ty and I were
Speaker 1: to do something, and these are ongoing discussions that we
Speaker 1: have with each other and we are fortunate to have
Speaker 1: with other people as well, where makes the most sense? YouTube? Facebook, Instagram,
Speaker 1: Instagram's big kids love Instagram. I don't have Snapchat on
Speaker 1: my phone anymore because it's just it got to be
Speaker 1: too many social media apps. But where makes the most sense?
Speaker 1: Beyond and the podcast will never go away, we promise.
Speaker 1: And furthermore, stupid show is staying yes continue.
Speaker 2: And furthermore, if you are one of those hypothetical influencers
Speaker 2: or people in power, what have you solverble at gmail
Speaker 2: dot com.
Speaker 1: What's solverble at gmail dot com? Look us up, let
Speaker 1: us know, let us know where you watch and would
Speaker 1: like to watch, Just not us but sports things in general,
Speaker 1: weirdos talking and making stuff. And while we're on the subject, Hi,
Speaker 1: i'd like to get to two thousand iTunes reviews. How
Speaker 1: many we got, like, I don't know, thirteen hundred. I
Speaker 1: really we've asked, you know, here and there at the
Speaker 1: end of shows and stuff like that. Let's get to
Speaker 1: two k. Well, let's get to three k and beyond
Speaker 1: SV two K SV two K like five star reviews iTunes.
Speaker 1: It helps.
Speaker 2: It seems like these shows just fly by dan mm hmm.
