Speaker 1: Schreeger on the podcast today. For those of you that
Speaker 1: ever watched Quarantine, Q and A was a little show
Speaker 1: that we did to all stay together talking about football.
Speaker 1: Was on what did we were on digital? Whatever we
Speaker 1: were on and every now and then we made it
Speaker 1: on a TV. Who knows, but um, we love Schreeger
Speaker 1: and we have got a gat story for you guys.
Speaker 1: We had a great dinner over the weekend with a
Speaker 1: lot of hilarity that ensued. So he will join us later.
Speaker 1: How is your week? You were actually off on a Sunday?
Speaker 1: Was that weird? Well? I facetimed you feeling very hungover.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's always weird because you feel like you
Speaker 1: need to be just like involved, know the storylines. I mean,
Speaker 1: I was texting you nonstoppable about what you were hearing
Speaker 1: about injuries watching the Carolina game watching the Tampa game.
Speaker 1: Um for our games this weekend. So it's just crazy.
Speaker 1: Mondays are nutty for me when I have two games
Speaker 1: in one week because you're trying to get you know,
Speaker 1: everything done before you leave on Wednesday, and then you've
Speaker 1: got a game Sunday. We've got something to go to
Speaker 1: on Saturday. It's a whole situation, you know, a whole situation.
Speaker 1: Since we were on here last week though, you went
Speaker 1: to Washington for your Thursday night game and there was
Speaker 1: a You've been really great on the I g By
Speaker 1: the way, for those of you that don't follow us
Speaker 1: on Instagram, we should. Aaron puts amazing stuff on there.
Speaker 1: I'm still working. I need to be better at Calm
Speaker 1: Down podcast check it out yep. And also she's wearing
Speaker 1: our Calm Down sweatshirt which if you want any of
Speaker 1: our merch Calm Down pod dot com for all of that.
Speaker 1: How cute was Brittany who does my makeup on Sundays
Speaker 1: and her mom, Jeanette, works at Fox. I saw her
Speaker 1: in the hallways and she had a Calm Down sweach.
Speaker 1: She bought it, so I thought that was very sweet.
Speaker 1: But um, you had a game on Thursday in Washington
Speaker 1: and it was a torrential downpour. What are we doing
Speaker 1: that you put the rain pants on? When my hat
Speaker 1: pants come off? I had full gear on. It was
Speaker 1: a Trenchell downpour. There was shelter in place, flooding all
Speaker 1: the things. For pregame. I was excited to get out
Speaker 1: on the field, talk to the guys as they're warming up.
Speaker 1: Grab sterling shepherd, grab you know, say Kwan, see how
Speaker 1: he's doing, grabbing some guys from the defense. And all
Speaker 1: of a sudden it's raining, cats and dogs. I am
Speaker 1: way too old to be out there in the pouring rain.
Speaker 1: I was like, nope, Ben, They're done that. So I
Speaker 1: just stayed in front of their locker room and waited
Speaker 1: for them to come out and said kid to guys,
Speaker 1: and they were all making fun of my head to
Speaker 1: toe rainpants, raincoat, rain hat. And then literally four minutes
Speaker 1: before my first hit, it stopped raining, and I was like,
Speaker 1: f this, And I ripped it all off and still
Speaker 1: had my rain boots on and did the thing. And
Speaker 1: the game was crazy, like I thought, Actually, Daniel Jones,
Speaker 1: I had New York sideline. It was crazy. Um Taylor Heineke,
Speaker 1: I screwed his name up on halftime and that, and
Speaker 1: you're beating yourself up over it, and I'm like, you're human,
Speaker 1: and you know his name is Taylor, and we're fine.
Speaker 1: I apologize Taylor not Tyler. Um. Yeah, I know. Those
Speaker 1: are the things that give me chest pains. You could
Speaker 1: do a total like a game and it could go well,
Speaker 1: it didn't go my side's way, so I didn't have
Speaker 1: the postgame interview. But then you get in the car
Speaker 1: and you look at Twitter and people are like, you dumbass,
Speaker 1: it's Taylor, not Tyler, and it ruins your night, ruins
Speaker 1: your night. But I think that there's a lesson in this,
Speaker 1: and we were talking about it actually a dinner. How
Speaker 1: much I appreciate how hard you are on yourself after
Speaker 1: something like that, because you're the top in this industry
Speaker 1: at your job and you still beat yourself up over it.
Speaker 1: And what I equated that too, is you know, the
Speaker 1: Tom Brady's of the world and the guys that are
Speaker 1: at the top of their respective sport and still beat
Speaker 1: up on themselves for the mistakes that they made. And
Speaker 1: so I can appreciate that you're competitive. I can appreciate
Speaker 1: that you appreciate appreciate, appreciate, and appreciate that you respect
Speaker 1: your position enough to make sure that you do it correctly.
Speaker 1: But you're also allowed and Aaron, no one's questioning your intelligence.
Speaker 1: My favorite is when Twitter is like you're an idiot
Speaker 1: and they use the wrong use of yours. So you
Speaker 1: know what, We're good here. Okay. So that was Thursday night,
Speaker 1: and then you got to watch games on Sunday, so
Speaker 1: that's always fun and excited about the Monday night game
Speaker 1: tonight to see how Green Bay rebounds. What do you
Speaker 1: have going on? Because I feel like it will. You
Speaker 1: have been teasing, Okay, So you and I communicate throughout
Speaker 1: the day, all day every day, and I was like,
Speaker 1: wanting to tell you this story as it was happening
Speaker 1: in real time so bad. But I was like, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna save it for the pod because I'm dying to
Speaker 1: know your take on it. Okay, So I'm gonna set
Speaker 1: the scene. I take the dogs. Days that the dogs
Speaker 1: can I talk. The days that the dogs don't go
Speaker 1: with their dog walker, I take them to the dog
Speaker 1: park because I always feel like you have to, you know,
Speaker 1: these big dogs me to run go to a dog
Speaker 1: park right by my house. Been doing this for years years.
Speaker 1: I mean Willis have had Willis eight years. I've had
Speaker 1: Daisy four years. We get it. Normal day at the
Speaker 1: dog park and all of a sudden, I'm walking towards
Speaker 1: the game to go grab Daisy because I'm gonna put
Speaker 1: her collar back on and we're gonna leave. And I
Speaker 1: see a police officer walking into the park and I
Speaker 1: was like, someone's in trouble. And the police officer goes,
Speaker 1: whose shepherd is that shirling shepherd? No? I said, it's
Speaker 1: it's mine. Why And he goes, do you have a
Speaker 1: license for the shepherd? And I go, I don't know
Speaker 1: what that means. Yeah. I was like, I mean I
Speaker 1: wish he could drive. I mean I do would love
Speaker 1: a driver. Um, Donald driver, Okay, stop playing this game. UM.
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't have a license for the dog.
Speaker 1: I was like, I adopted her, Like do you want
Speaker 1: that paperwork? Like what do you mean a license? And
Speaker 1: he goes, oh, then you're gonna be You're gonna be fined.
Speaker 1: And he pulls out his little tax and I go,
Speaker 1: what are you talking about? I've never I go, I've
Speaker 1: never heard of this in my life. And he points
Speaker 1: to this obscure sign that is freaking in the other
Speaker 1: side of the park. And he was like, it says
Speaker 1: very clearly in the Santa Monica jurisdiction you need to
Speaker 1: have a license for your dog. And I was like what.
Speaker 1: So then Kyle's with me um in the dog park
Speaker 1: and he was like, sir, husband's a lawyer, yeah, and
Speaker 1: I and I will help him use it. And so
Speaker 1: I was like, well, so Kyle intervenes, because at this
Speaker 1: point you better walk. I'm not going to start questioning authorities.
Speaker 1: And now I'm in handcuffs and we've got a whole problem.
Speaker 1: Calling the mild mannered person, He's like, sir, what's the
Speaker 1: problem here, And he was like, as I was telling
Speaker 1: your wife, you need to have your dog license. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: I'm going to get Willis now because I'm like, we're
Speaker 1: out of here. And I go, sir, you're gonna give
Speaker 1: the all these other people in here a ticket too,
Speaker 1: and he was like, well, I can only give one
Speaker 1: ticket at a time. Meanwhile, like little ants, everyone's fleeing
Speaker 1: the dog park because they see what's happening. And I go,
Speaker 1: there's there's a ticket. There's I'm pointing at everyone. They're
Speaker 1: leaving the dog party, go hold on, wait, you gotta
Speaker 1: give them a ticket. I'm now, I'm like, how much
Speaker 1: this offense you've committed? Or thank you? So I go
Speaker 1: and get Willis and he goes, wait a minute, you
Speaker 1: have two dogs? And I go yeah, and he goes, well,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you a courtesy and only give you
Speaker 1: a ticket for one. I go absolutely not, sir, I said,
Speaker 1: I am not a rule breaker. I said, you give
Speaker 1: me a ticket for both of those dogs. Don't do
Speaker 1: me any favors. It's a hundred bucks per dog. What
Speaker 1: what did you do? What? Literally? For what exactly? Why? Exactly?
Speaker 1: And who let the dogs out? Not me anymore? Not
Speaker 1: at that part you did with Paul Blart mall cop
Speaker 1: I said, I literally, I was like, do you have
Speaker 1: nothing to do today? What's going? Did he even have
Speaker 1: a gun? And I didn't see a gun? I didn't. Well,
Speaker 1: then you know what that's when people say I'm dating
Speaker 1: a model, Well, let me know she's been in Vogue,
Speaker 1: she's not let me know, yeah, a real model. So
Speaker 1: I was then at this point again, I'm like, I'm
Speaker 1: so angry, And while he's taking his sweet ass time
Speaker 1: to fill out everything other than my social Security number
Speaker 1: on this ticket. Right. I was like, you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to leave my dog on a leash.
Speaker 1: I let them both off. I go, guys, run around,
Speaker 1: run around, because I was like, I'm Kyle. Of course,
Speaker 1: is like trying to get me under control. And I
Speaker 1: was like, sir, does it make you? And then I
Speaker 1: saw the body camera. I was like, christ I lock
Speaker 1: it up. Okay. I was like, let's not out of control.
Speaker 1: So I just politely took my ticket. After that, I
Speaker 1: gave him the correct address and I was like, you
Speaker 1: know what, I will look into seeing how I can
Speaker 1: license my dog. I'm sorry that I'm at the dog park.
Speaker 1: So as this is happening, another girl starts to walk
Speaker 1: into the dog park and I'm like, I'm going to
Speaker 1: save her. I'm I go, do you have a license
Speaker 1: for your dog? And she goes what I go exactly,
Speaker 1: I go, go, I go get out of here. You're
Speaker 1: gonna I'm not kidding. She's like opening up the gate.
Speaker 1: I go over to her. I put my hand on
Speaker 1: the small of her back and I'm ushering her out
Speaker 1: of the dog park. I was like, leave, leave, now, leave.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I'm out there doing so, then you'll appreciate this.
Speaker 1: The next day, I'm like, fuck it, I gotta go
Speaker 1: back to the dog park. The dogs need to run around.
Speaker 1: So I took my ticket. I taped it to my chest.
Speaker 1: I went back to the dog park, and if Paul
Speaker 1: Blart was there, I was gonna say, I already got
Speaker 1: a ticket for this, and I'm working on it. I've
Speaker 1: got thirty days, according to the citation, to get a license.
Speaker 1: So every day I show up at this dog park
Speaker 1: in between, I'm gonna take that ticket to my chest.
Speaker 1: And I sat there in at the dog park with
Speaker 1: the ticket on my chest, parts clothes, moves out front,
Speaker 1: and have told you that's a little John Candy security
Speaker 1: line for you. Um, that is crazy. How are people
Speaker 1: supposed to know that? Are you joking, sir? Like you're
Speaker 1: not trying to break the law? What is this really?
Speaker 1: I think things to worry about out there. Could someone
Speaker 1: figure out the COVID mass before we're ticketing? I mean,
Speaker 1: what license to kill? What are we doing? I mean, honestly,
Speaker 1: I I go, oh, I'm sorry that I was adopting
Speaker 1: a dog like like that, I was like stood on
Speaker 1: my high horse of adoption. Like we're living anyway. So
Speaker 1: for those out there that I've never licensed your dog,
Speaker 1: don't go to the Santa Monica dog park. This guy,
Speaker 1: I mean, I get a question because here I started
Speaker 1: thinking conspiracy theories. Do you think somebody told on you?
Speaker 1: Do you think somebody saw you out there and somebody
Speaker 1: told Well? The only reason I feel like he didn't
Speaker 1: is because or that it wasn't a conspiracy, because the
Speaker 1: one remaining soul in the dog park after we left
Speaker 1: saw him walk up to like try to give somebody
Speaker 1: else a ticket that wasn't smart enough to leave with,
Speaker 1: you know, the mass exodus that was out of there before.
Speaker 1: But this this girl was so cute. She waited for
Speaker 1: me in the parking lot. She goes, thank you so much.
Speaker 1: I've never heard of that. I was like me, neither.
Speaker 1: I'd go to Chord over that, just to create a sting.
Speaker 1: You know. You know what I'm gonna get Matthew McConaughey
Speaker 1: in there, Kyle thousand to go throw on a suit
Speaker 1: and We've got a job for you today. The dumbest
Speaker 1: thing I've ever heard of. You wear your mask on
Speaker 1: a plane, you don't take it off. You're a law
Speaker 1: abiding citizen and this is the ship you get. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and it wasn't like my dog was off the leash
Speaker 1: in the streets, just roaming freely. Love the military like
Speaker 1: home on. Are you kidding me? I've dated cops and
Speaker 1: people in the military. I love them all more than
Speaker 1: you pass my American flag that's hanging up in the
Speaker 1: me But anyways, I want to use this as a
Speaker 1: public service announcement. I appreciate that there's you know, people
Speaker 1: out there patrolling the streets, but can we get up
Speaker 1: me a warning next time? Not a ticket, give a
Speaker 1: girl a warning, you know. Anyways, we'll be back with
Speaker 1: more Shregg's coming up next? Is it? Is it upside
Speaker 1: down and backwards or perfect? Okay, we don't have you
Speaker 1: very long. How are you doing? We don't even need
Speaker 1: to start. Look at this guy the scene of the crime.
Speaker 1: I think we'll call this big shout out to Craig.
Speaker 1: Tell me when we're starting, because I'm trying to starting.
Speaker 1: We already started. I just love Peter Schreeger, our friend,
Speaker 1: and I'd love to say how many jobs he has.
Speaker 1: He has seven hundred and hopefully a brand new job
Speaker 1: coming up soon. We won't touch on any Um, the
Speaker 1: best part is when we all decided to get together
Speaker 1: on sad Sturday this past Saturday. And we'll get to
Speaker 1: that in just a minute. We talked about you being
Speaker 1: on the podcast, and I think I was worried because
Speaker 1: I was like, is this going to be all football? Now?
Speaker 1: We're not even gonna talk football? No can I By
Speaker 1: the way, I'm flattered to be on the podcast. I've
Speaker 1: watched the Brian baum Gartner recently, I watched I watched
Speaker 1: the Kevin Hart Out of the Gates, which was a
Speaker 1: big get. Um, I'm happy to be on episode thirty one.
Speaker 1: If if I didn't make the top fifty, I would
Speaker 1: have been concerned. But if I'm on thirty one, I'm good.
Speaker 1: Damn it. But only Schreeger does film study on podcast?
Speaker 1: Want to but on the only two I gave a
Speaker 1: ship about. But other than that, this is a reason.
Speaker 1: By the way, this is a we're reunited of Quarantine
Speaker 1: Q and a let's not remember it, well, let's not
Speaker 1: forget where this all started. We had a show. But
Speaker 1: here's my deal. Um, no one watches fine, No, it

Speaker 1: a new show for your scenes Scenes from a marriage,
Speaker 1: Oh ship you guys, that is okay, don't watch it
Speaker 1: if you have a dysfunctional relationship. So, Oscar Isaac is
Speaker 1: a is a Brooklyn guy. Okay, I see him a bunch.
Speaker 1: Are you into Oscar Isaac? Is he hot or is
Speaker 1: he like to artsy FARTZI for you guys, for me,

Speaker 1: don't know what's going on, but we could talk about
Speaker 1: the word caressed. I'm not into that word. They're not together,

Speaker 1: set the scene of the crime because we're not going

Speaker 1: going out on a school night. But it was really
Speaker 1: a school night for the two of you. Yes, Aaron
Speaker 1: didn't have a game on Sunday, which rarely ever happens,
Speaker 1: because you did the Thursday night game. So we were
Speaker 1: on a text chain earlier in the week asking Shreggs
Speaker 1: if we wanted to do a dinner. Of course, we
Speaker 1: always want to spend time with him because he's in
Speaker 1: town in l A on the weekends for our show.

Speaker 1: it was empty. By six oh seven, this place was
Speaker 1: absolutely packed. And you know, I'm like, who's a reservation
Speaker 1: under Alexander Charissa. I'm like, I'm here for Thompson whatever.

Speaker 1: a ton of questions for you. Se since was asking
Speaker 1: can I get you anything else? Like, Brian, you want
Speaker 1: to sit down as an open chair. I was supposed
Speaker 1: to be calling, but it seemed like it's now your opportunity.
Speaker 1: So you know what Wally pipped. So then we come
Speaker 1: back from the Nours convention and we sit back down
Speaker 1: and Aaron, I think you saw Randy Gerber or I did,
Speaker 1: or somebody. I was like, oh, there's Randy Gerber. And
Speaker 1: where where Randy Gerber is? George Clooney is not far behind,
Speaker 1: we hoped sometimes he's in Italy. You know what, I
Speaker 1: too would be in the Lake Homo if I could.
Speaker 1: So he goes into this private room and I'm like,
Speaker 1: what's going on in there? You know? On the doors opened,
Speaker 1: the sliding doors open, and now this this our table
Speaker 1: literally in table, our table. Literally when they seated us
Speaker 1: at the table, my New Yorker and me was borderline offended.
Speaker 1: I thought we were on a toilet. Literally, it was
Speaker 1: that close to the bathroom. But I didn't realize was
Speaker 1: that we were adjacent to a private room. And I'm thinking,
Speaker 1: all right, I don't know what's going on. Chrissa take
Speaker 1: it from here. Well, no, you're a better story. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'll just say this. So the doors open and we're like, oh,
Speaker 1: what's happening? And so I have a site line, a
Speaker 1: better site line, and you shregged you and I do
Speaker 1: because Aaron's backs to it and I at this point,
Speaker 1: I want anyone to be George Clooney. So I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: you guys, I just saw him. I just saw him,
Speaker 1: and and Hreggs, You're like, is that. I go, it's him.
Speaker 1: It's him, expediting the story. The doors opened later at
Speaker 1: some point, and then we really see that, not the
Speaker 1: guy that I thought was him or ray Leota. At
Speaker 1: one point I diagnosed in correct by the way, who
Speaker 1: used to work in entertainment. I'd get all the celebrities wrong, shocker,
Speaker 1: but I'm not going to get George Cluney wrong because
Speaker 1: the last time I saw him, I was inebriated on
Speaker 1: a red carpet with him, So how could I forget that.
Speaker 1: So the doors open and I see him. It's like
Speaker 1: a glow. There was a halo, there was I can't
Speaker 1: see him at this point, and there's women I can
Speaker 1: see in my view because my back is to the door,
Speaker 1: and all the women look in and go, oh my god.
Speaker 1: It's like me seeing Mickey Mouse. It's like there he
Speaker 1: is like women, and there were like European women and
Speaker 1: they couldn't stop. And if anyone's there with their date,
Speaker 1: fuck the date because they are like there he is
Speaker 1: Brian even Brian. Uh we got Brian didn't give a ship.
Speaker 1: Brian was into schrager Um and I was into him.
Speaker 1: So Brian, Brian has the the private room wide open,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, dude, close the private door. I mean literally,
Speaker 1: there would be like twenty four year old Ukrainian women
Speaker 1: like creeping up and taking shots taking pictures of like
Speaker 1: George Clooney sitting and drinking. I'm like, come on, he
Speaker 1: doesn't want this wind up going to the bathroom or
Speaker 1: they are fake. They were fake lining up going to
Speaker 1: the bathroom, pretending they have to go to the bathroom,
Speaker 1: and they were sneaking in photos. It was creepy. I've
Speaker 1: never seen that. I see that line to the bathroom.
Speaker 1: I have to go to the bathroom, and so I
Speaker 1: go into the men's room to go to the bathroom.
Speaker 1: Then I get a constant from security saying I'm not
Speaker 1: allowed to do that. That was the second time this
Speaker 1: week I've went into the men's restroom when I'm not
Speaker 1: supposed to. But that's not important here, Shreg's that's it. Hey,
Speaker 1: if at first you fail, you know, that's that's you
Speaker 1: go for it. Um. I love that, So I'm talking
Speaker 1: to Brian, and then I'm talking to someone like closed
Speaker 1: the door where nobody compared to George Clooney, But let's
Speaker 1: close the door against privacy, and Craig interjects, comes over there,
Speaker 1: no, no no, no, no, no no. These guys haven't hung
Speaker 1: out together in like a year because of COVID. This
Speaker 1: is their first time hanging. They don't want to be
Speaker 1: trapped in this private room. They want the doors open,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, then let's go hello friends, is right?
Speaker 1: And then we think of a plan, and then we
Speaker 1: think of a plan and that plan is Shreger goes.
Speaker 1: Everyone loves Jim Nance. I'm onto you, like, there's no
Speaker 1: way we're leaving this place without a full party in
Speaker 1: this room together. So Jim Nance enters the scene and
Speaker 1: the doors WI bring him in. I bring him in.
Speaker 1: I go over and get Jim. Of course you want
Speaker 1: to say hello. George wants to say hi to Jim.
Speaker 1: It's a whole thing and tatta. So once Jim enters
Speaker 1: the room, now the floodgates open, comes in, Aaron comes in.
Speaker 1: We got the whole get along thing. No no, no,
Speaker 1: arantimidically walked in and I were hiding. We were hiding. Sure,
Speaker 1: I'll tell our sight of the story. I thought it
Speaker 1: was adorable and I have own Aeron now for a
Speaker 1: couple of years. We don't go back twenty years. I
Speaker 1: don't know you guys socially, like when we're out, Aaron
Speaker 1: was the most adorable shy like it was almost like
Speaker 1: she saw, like, you know, the star of e Er
Speaker 1: and didn't want to bother him at you know, at
Speaker 1: the table that she's been watching since the nineties or
Speaker 1: whatever it is. Charrissa, you're you're out there, You're going,
Speaker 1: You're making these efforts for all of us to be friends.
Speaker 1: You're the best. I need you always out there, the best.
Speaker 1: Aaron is sitting there like do we go over with it?
Speaker 1: And then Craig, to his credit, is like, guys, come
Speaker 1: on in, what are we doing here? Just come on
Speaker 1: and be comfortable. Puts us at the table with Cluney
Speaker 1: and his crew. And I was like, I don't want
Speaker 1: to go. I don't want to go. I don't want
Speaker 1: to go. And what does Clon say to Aaron. He says, oh, Aaron,
Speaker 1: it is I'm a huge fan exactly, and she was like,
Speaker 1: you watch me. And then she's like this is Peter Schreeger.
Speaker 1: He's on Good Morning Football, And I was like, you're
Speaker 1: it was great, and the whole room cheered for you. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And then my line was I'm here with both of them,
Speaker 1: and guys, you're probably wondering who is this guy? I
Speaker 1: will exit left And I got a little chuckle at everybody.
Speaker 1: I was so uncomfortable, uh and yet as cool as
Speaker 1: Clooney is, and he was so nice to us, and
Speaker 1: he was so gracious, and he was so friendly. My
Speaker 1: childhood idol walked in a few minutes later, and I
Speaker 1: didn't have the courage to say a word to this person.
Speaker 1: Do you mean that woman? Yes, he's not. He's misusing
Speaker 1: the word. It's not idol his I'm a warm blooded
Speaker 1: American male. For the listeners, Cindy Crawford walks in the room.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, she walked in to the point I yelled,
Speaker 1: who is this broad? Because yes, I did. I thought
Speaker 1: she would not to her, but to you didn't. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because I didn't see her face. I just saw her
Speaker 1: like body in her hair, and I said, there's another
Speaker 1: girl trying to get in there. Well, yeah, it's Cindy
Speaker 1: Crawford trying to go in and say hello to her husband.
Speaker 1: And Cindy Crawford, who I don't know. I'm not again.
Speaker 1: I am not a TMZ guy. I'm not a celebrity
Speaker 1: gossip guy. Cindy Crawford. When I was a kid, the
Speaker 1: Pepsi commercial, everything, I mean, the movie Copycat. Ever you
Speaker 1: want to go down the list. I love Cindy Crawford.
Speaker 1: She looked and beautiful, and she's married to Randy Gerber,
Speaker 1: who was at the table and his partners with George
Speaker 1: Cloney in the liquor company. And I at that point,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I am a kid from Freehold, New Jersey
Speaker 1: who grew up eating McDonald's and playing man Hunt with
Speaker 1: my friends in the cul de Sac. I'm at a
Speaker 1: table with George Clooney, Cindy Crawford, Jim Nance, Aaron Andrews,
Speaker 1: Charissa Thompson, and I'm like, this isn't too much. It's
Speaker 1: time for it's time for me to call the uber.
Speaker 1: It's just it's not gonna get any better than this.
Speaker 1: And I did, and that is where we exit. And
Speaker 1: oh my god, if I wanted to welcome to Los
Speaker 1: Angeles night, I had it with you two. And then
Speaker 1: let's do a flashback, so we'll do an early dinner
Speaker 1: right six o'clock. I didn't watch film, and I had
Speaker 1: the worst headache the next day. I mean, Chrissa was
Speaker 1: like ordering drinks and kept pouring her drink into mine.
Speaker 1: That's my fault or something. Carissa had as good of
Speaker 1: a Fox NFL kickoff face she's ever had. Honestly, she
Speaker 1: was on fire, great energy, on point. Follow up questions
Speaker 1: like if you watched yesterday's show, we were really good
Speaker 1: as a show, and I would say Carissa was our
Speaker 1: leader and was fantastic. Okay, I doubt watching George Clooney
Speaker 1: he did tell us because I went into a whole
Speaker 1: ten minute long dissertation about my time in Cincinnati, which
Speaker 1: consisted of ten minutes and my Joe Burrow interview. I
Speaker 1: was like, so what do you think? He was probably like,
Speaker 1: can we just get back to the group dinner. I
Speaker 1: was with as I'm trying to like break down the
Speaker 1: you know, state of the union with him in the
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals. But how isn't he I used to always say,
Speaker 1: the bigger the star, the nicer they are. And when
Speaker 1: people would ask me who was my favorite person to interview?
Speaker 1: And it was always him like he is just now.
Speaker 1: You guys can attest like the nicest, most down to
Speaker 1: earth person and Jim dance because no one doesn't love
Speaker 1: Jim Nance. Well it's not only known doesn't love. Everyone
Speaker 1: sees comfort in Jim Nance. Because you've watched The Masters,
Speaker 1: you cried to watching Phil on the seventeenth Toll, like you,
Speaker 1: You've done it all with Jim Nance. He's called the
Speaker 1: Final Four. He's called so like even if you're George
Speaker 1: Clooney or Leo DiCaprio or Justin Timberlake or whoever, or
Speaker 1: Ray Liotta or or whoever you want to say, um,
Speaker 1: if you see Jim Nance and you hear that voice,
Speaker 1: it puts you into like blank boards war blanket. And
Speaker 1: I think Joe Buck is probably similar. It's like I
Speaker 1: know this guy, even though I might not know this guy.
Speaker 1: And Cluney loved talking with Jim Nance. And guess what
Speaker 1: we gave George Clooney the opportunity on Saturday night exactly,
Speaker 1: you know what, because we're making dreams happen. We're connecting dots.
Speaker 1: We're out here just connecting the constellations for the Big Chris,
Speaker 1: I didn't ask you this but I couldn't even look
Speaker 1: at George Clooney because I was so embarrassed. I was,
Speaker 1: by the way, like that fifteen year old boy that
Speaker 1: just like asked the girl to like the dance, and
Speaker 1: it was so gross. Did he smell good? Because you
Speaker 1: were like basically right up next to him. I mean
Speaker 1: I was like massaging his shoulders, I mean, just to
Speaker 1: get the guy. But what happened to six feet? We
Speaker 1: still have COVID protocol churs that relaxed. He always smells good.
Speaker 1: He was so so nice and his voice was terrific.
Speaker 1: And yes, it was a moment. The guys he rolls
Speaker 1: with they were cool, ash like cool. He was with
Speaker 1: normal guys, and I think, you know, Hollywood celebrity, it's
Speaker 1: going to be a bodyguard. It's now These are like
Speaker 1: normal guys that that anyone would have grown up in
Speaker 1: their hometown. So this is uh, probably nauseating for everyone
Speaker 1: at home to hear three people in entertainment talk about
Speaker 1: how cool this other guy entertained was. But we're all
Speaker 1: just awe struck that freak, and George Clooney was at
Speaker 1: the table next to us. It's pretty neat. Hey, look
Speaker 1: you leave those doors open, we're coming in, you know,
Speaker 1: oh my god, girl wanted to just have you know,
Speaker 1: but he was cool with it. All the girls wanted
Speaker 1: to go in. I felt for him though, and really
Speaker 1: by last thing. And I guess you guys probably feel
Speaker 1: this too. Like and it's not a fish bowl, but
Speaker 1: like he sits down at a table and literally sixty
Speaker 1: different people are their meals stop and are just staring
Speaker 1: and taking photos of him. Do you think that's every
Speaker 1: day of his life? Yeah? What, he lives in Italy.
Speaker 1: But he chose to go to Crags and he left
Speaker 1: the door open. I mean, he wanted it to be
Speaker 1: out a little bit all night. You wanted to see
Speaker 1: You wanted to see who was at the petting zoo,
Speaker 1: you know, before we let you go, because we know
Speaker 1: we have to. What do you like this comes out
Speaker 1: on Thursday? What do you like about I guess my game? Um, Carolina,
Speaker 1: they looked fantastic against against the Saints. And what are
Speaker 1: some storylines do you like going into this weekend. I'm
Speaker 1: so pissed I didn't take your bed on that h
Speaker 1: so confident to Um, I know, I'm sorry, I just knew,
Speaker 1: and I'm sorry I took I told Charris a thousand times.
Speaker 1: The Panthers are like the lock of the week. The
Speaker 1: Santa bisin too high after the Patters and then lost
Speaker 1: all their players, coaches with Covid and then Marshaw Ladmore's out.
Speaker 1: But the Panthers are fun and they're interesting. They could
Speaker 1: very easily be three and oh by the end of
Speaker 1: this week, and we're gonna be like, are they good
Speaker 1: young defense, Brian Burns, really good young player, Jeremy Chin,
Speaker 1: great new personality, second year player. But what I'm fascinating
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers, My Carolina Panthers. What I'm fascinated by is
Speaker 1: what's going on with the Texans quarterback situation. So it's
Speaker 1: early in the week. I don't know if Tyrod Taylor
Speaker 1: is gonna play, if it's a rookie Davis Mills, third
Speaker 1: round pick out of Stanford. Welcome to the big, Big,
Speaker 1: National showtime game, because everyone's gonna be watching. On Thursday night,
Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson and Sam Donald looked very comfortable together. They
Speaker 1: have a great cut. Is Robbie Anderson forgetting that that
Speaker 1: mascot was a Panther And it's one of my favorite things.
Speaker 1: If you guys when we're talking. Just google Robbie Anderson
Speaker 1: in Mascott. It's very funny, Aaron. The one that I'm
Speaker 1: interested in, though, is will you be on the sidelines
Speaker 1: for Rams Buccaneers Sunday? Oh? What which sideline? And how
Speaker 1: is how is that decided when you've got two sideline
Speaker 1: reporters assigned to the game. Is it a flip of
Speaker 1: a coin or do you have seniority and get to
Speaker 1: just pick? I am not going to divolve how Yeah,
Speaker 1: but yeah, I'm freaking I can't wait. And Shregs, I
Speaker 1: know it's only week three. Obviously, we just saw a
Speaker 1: week to your thoughts on what we saw at a
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay and their defense as well. I mean I
Speaker 1: was telling Chris of Greg Olson. Maybe I just told
Speaker 1: my dad Greg Olson just basically said, you've got to
Speaker 1: play the perfect game to beat them. Yes, it's early,
Speaker 1: but what are your thoughts about them? So I texted,
Speaker 1: and I don't like doing this, Like I texted. I
Speaker 1: texted a very um high level NFL coach, a guy
Speaker 1: that I really respect, And I said, and it was
Speaker 1: during the game, I'm in the air and I'm watching it.
Speaker 1: It's and and this coach had already played earlier in
Speaker 1: the day and he was watching the game too, and
Speaker 1: I said, gosh, they're letting Atlanta hang around, and he
Speaker 1: wrote back, they look bored. They'll win by twenty and
Speaker 1: they did. Like it was almost like they were like
Speaker 1: all right, like because they could have buried. Atlanta beat
Speaker 1: him by fifty. It was that one side in Atlanta
Speaker 1: crawled back. It's amazing. And Kyle Brandt, my colleague on
Speaker 1: Good Morning Football, had this staging. I can't imagine this.
Speaker 1: Brady's a few touchdown passes away from having more touchdown
Speaker 1: passes in his forties than he did in his twenties,
Speaker 1: and he's still just forty four because he's never had
Speaker 1: this many weapons. It's incredible. He through five and like
Speaker 1: quietly through five touchdown passes quietly on Sunday, and you
Speaker 1: know the Rams are gonna have a defensive game plan
Speaker 1: and they beat him last year in Tampa. I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's really hard to stop what they've got going on
Speaker 1: right now. Oh, Michael's brought that up on that Thursday
Speaker 1: night game where he said, is he even better now
Speaker 1: than he was in his twenties And they were saying yeah,
Speaker 1: because he's mean everything. Every there's not a defense. There's
Speaker 1: not as anything scheme you can throw in front of
Speaker 1: him for him that he hasn't seen. So I think
Speaker 1: there's a there's a challenge for us as sports media
Speaker 1: how to skin this cat any different way. So, like
Speaker 1: we wake up in the morning, I do a daily show,
Speaker 1: and it's like it's one thing if it's a weekly
Speaker 1: show and coach wants that or Straighthand or Jimmy on
Speaker 1: the weekly morning shows, like hey, here's what makes Brady great?
Speaker 1: To do it every day? It's really like, what's the
Speaker 1: fresh perspective this guy? It's he's an alien, he's modern
Speaker 1: science defied. And it's like, how do you have a
Speaker 1: fresh perspective on Brady? After doing this for twenty years
Speaker 1: and every day being even better than the last one.
Speaker 1: It's an amazing story. And yet I think there's almost
Speaker 1: I have not fatigued, but like, I don't know how
Speaker 1: else to describe it. How good it is, it's awesome.
Speaker 1: Do you have a calm down a word or do
Speaker 1: you want to sell? I have a calm down a
Speaker 1: ward before I go. Let me tell you something, America
Speaker 1: and all you out there in Los Angeles going a
Speaker 1: rags or or jersey mikes and everything in between. Um,
Speaker 1: I've heard something during the pandemic, during the quarantine and
Speaker 1: during the summer that New York City is dead. Uh,
Speaker 1: calm down, folks. New York City is alive. It's as
Speaker 1: good as it's ever been. It is. I'm fired a
Speaker 1: good way right now. People are out. People look great.
Speaker 1: They spent the quarantine reassessing things. People left. Guess what
Speaker 1: people left. They went to the suburbs. You know what,
Speaker 1: We didn't want them anyway. Those are the tools as
Speaker 1: the people we didn't want here, the cool people stayed,
Speaker 1: and cool people are moving in. So to everyone who
Speaker 1: says New York City is dead, as a New York
Speaker 1: City resident, I will tell you New York City is
Speaker 1: alive and well, and if you're cool enough, I would
Speaker 1: love to show you my city next time you are
Speaker 1: in town. Anyone listening. But if you're scared of New
Speaker 1: York City or you think it's a terrible place, please
Speaker 1: keep saying that and stay in your suburbs behind your
Speaker 1: white picket fences. I'm good where I am. Let's go,
Speaker 1: Let's go. Brian just text me and said when can
Speaker 1: he meet you in New York. I don't know. I've
Speaker 1: got a root for any time. If your waiter unless
Speaker 1: his name is Brian, then you invite him over any time.
Speaker 1: Brian the waiter wants to come to New York, I'll
Speaker 1: give him three months he can stay with me. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, I love it, Shrike, thank you. You guys
Speaker 1: are great. Thanks for inviting me on. Bye honey, see
Speaker 1: you next week. Dinner at six Calm Down with Aaron
