I know you used to cover 15 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: the NFL on CBS before you moved to the SEC 16 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: on CBS and now this role, and I was saying, 17 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: I totally remember you covering Chargers games back in San 18 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 1: Diego when we were there many many moons ago. Nice too, 19 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 1: officially as you stay and meet virtually albeit yes, thank you. 20 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: So let's talk GMFB first season. What has it been 21 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: like for you so far? It's been busy, So it's 22 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: a big change, you know, with for a job and 23 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 1: for life. You know. We moved at you know, on 24 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: like a four weeks notice essentially, and it was like 25 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 1: a whole sale, whole family, sell, a house, buy a house, 26 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: dog involved kind of move. And also all the while, 27 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,639 Speaker 1: like when I found out, like I started the show 28 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: like really four weeks later, so then there was like 29 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: a temporary apartment involved, and it just it was like 30 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:45,040 Speaker 1: the wheels have not stopped turning over. But I've said 31 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 1: this to a lot of people that I just saw 32 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: over the holidays, which is like shockingly, in the five 33 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: months since this happened, the job still is the easiest 34 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: part of my day. You know. I've got two little 35 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: kids at home and moving boxes places in the house 36 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: and so but the football and the job and the 37 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 1: guys have really made it smooth. And so every day 38 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 1: I love the show. It's all the other you know, 39 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: xs and o's of life that make it a challenge. 40 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: I kind of love your honesty though, because everyone sees 41 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 1: you on the show. The show's fantastic. It's been around 42 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: for so many years now, but for you and Jason 43 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: mccordy to come on and have this presence is great, 44 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: but like you're super honest about like, hey, this was 45 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: a really quick transition and one that happened super fast, 46 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: and I don't think a lot of people probably think 47 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: about that. It was very fast, and it was and 48 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: it was really jarring, you know, for my family for 49 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 1: a lot of reasons. My husband and I are both 50 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 1: from Minnesota, and we have, like I said, we have 51 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 1: a three and a half year old and a one 52 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: and a half year old, and we lived near both 53 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: of our sets of parents and and we left and 54 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 1: you know, we don't have that kind of like family 55 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: back bone anymore. If you will, you know, our kids 56 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:04,119 Speaker 1: are in really vulnerable and like needy ages. And but 57 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: I think what people also have to remember is like 58 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: while I go to work every day now, I get 59 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,519 Speaker 1: to put my kids to bed every night now, as 60 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: opposed to with CBS and eight incredible years at CBS, 61 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: you know, I didn't go to work every day, but 62 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: I also had to leave every weekend, and so that's 63 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 1: really hard with the kids being the ages that they are, 64 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: and so it just felt like the right time in 65 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: life to do something like this for a lot of reasons, 66 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: but one of which was just I really am happy 67 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: to go every day and talk every day and then 68 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: like start a new game the next morning, and I 69 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: just I like not traveling. I like staying home. Yeah, 70 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: I'm sure that's great. In terms also of this job, 71 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: you know you as we mentioned NFL on CBS SEC 72 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: on CBS basketball football, a little bit of everything sideline 73 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: reporting to now transition to this role hosting a morning show. 74 00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: What has that been like for you? It's been really fun. 75 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: I've also said too, you know, I can't put the 76 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: genie back in the bottle now if you will, Like 77 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: now I've been given this platform to like I just 78 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: get the talk for like two minutes, three minutes, and 79 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,119 Speaker 1: it's just this round table and like if it's really good, 80 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: they just keep going as opposed to And this isn't 81 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: through the fault of any you know, this is just 82 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: broadcast television. When you're doing a game, it's you are 83 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: at the mercy of the game. You only have as 84 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: much time as kickoff allows, or until the next down, 85 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 1: until the next snap, And that's not anybody's fault except 86 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: the gate. You're there for the game, this show, you're 87 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: there for each other, You're there for the viewers. You're 88 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: there for the football fan that wants to engage with 89 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: football every single day. And so two days ago we 90 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: got into this hilarious round table about like Kyle's obsession 91 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: with the NFC South and just like how nobody it's 92 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: just up for grabs and like no one can figure 93 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,239 Speaker 1: it out, and we all kind of stake their claim 94 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: on a team. And then like, I have these moments 95 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: in the show where I get nervous that we're doing 96 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: it's going too long, like oh god, we've really got 97 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 1: to wrap things up. And I look around and I'm 98 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: like Peter and Kyle do not have that nervousness because 99 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 1: they've been doing this for six years and they know 100 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: better than I do that like when it's good, they 101 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: let us go, which I think is like a really 102 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: great trademark of the show that when you're on a 103 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: good topic or a good conversation or someone's really passionate 104 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 1: about something, you have the freedom. And I'm still learning 105 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: that because I still have this nervousness, like don't talk 106 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: over a snap, and so it's it's trick, it's still 107 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:30,919 Speaker 1: a skill. I mean, I'm only five months into it, 108 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: but I really really love the creative freedom. What a 109 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: luxury too, of going from a job where you have 110 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: someone in your ear going you have fifteen seconds or 111 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: you have thirty seconds and that's it, to now minutes 112 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: you've got multiple Yeah, it's shocked. It's like, really sounds 113 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: kind of lame when you put it that way, like, oh, 114 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: now I have whole minutes. But like minutes in television 115 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: are pressures. A lot of times you don't realize. Yeah, 116 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: you just don't realize. And you know, I as a 117 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: sideline reporter too, you just you like, telling a really 118 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: good story is hard to do and you have to 119 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: just cut through the teeth and information sometimes and you 120 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: have to rely sometimes on your play by play guy 121 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: to button it up on the back end, and if 122 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: you don't, if it doesn't happen, then you feel like, oh, 123 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: no one, you know, you didn't land the plane. And 124 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: you work, you grind on, like getting something perfect, and 125 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: if you know something goes awry, you're so you know, frustrated, 126 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: disappointed with yourself that you couldn't accomplish something. Whereas this 127 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: it's like you just have time, and I think it's 128 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: the greatest gift in sports. TVs fifteen hours a week 129 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 1: of just football. Say, part of the magic I think 130 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: of this show is the chemistry, and you have worked 131 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: yourself in so seamlessly, same with mccordy, but just working 132 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: with Kyle, working with Peter how key was building that 133 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: from really, like you mentioned, a very short time frame 134 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: to then getting on air and doing this well, I 135 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: think what's actually really cool is and but risky at 136 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: the same time, was that we had all met each other, 137 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: we had all been in the one room together one 138 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: time before our first show, and um, so really we've 139 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: kind of figured each other out like on television, and 140 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: that has, you know, at times, provided for I'm sure 141 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: clunky moments of me trying to learn how to Again, 142 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: this goes back to what my like television brain is 143 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: trained to do, which is like to keep the train 144 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: on the tracks. Um, you know, Kyle goes off the tracks, 145 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: and that's great and that's what makes Kyle great. Yeah, 146 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: I Peter goes off the tracks too, and then Jason's 147 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: learning how to take his train off the tracks and 148 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: I guess I am too, and so it's it. That's 149 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: that's what's been fun to do in real time. I think, honestly, 150 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: I think the more you practice that stuff, um, it's 151 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: becomes less organic. I think us going to London and 152 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: Munich together as a show was awesome for this reason. 153 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: You know, we're all we all have kids, and we 154 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: all try to bolt out the door as soon as 155 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: possible when the show is done because we got stuff 156 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: to go do. So to have that uninterrupted time together 157 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: abroad and then being a part of these historical moments 158 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: for football, I think also really brought us together a 159 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: lot faster too. So it's like, well, we didn't have 160 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: as much time on the front end. We've really had 161 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: some meaty time together in the interim in the season, 162 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: and I just feel like we all agreed. Last week 163 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: are the holiday week leading up to Christmas weekend was 164 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: like our best week of shows. Like it just felt 165 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: like we were there. You know, we hit all cylinders, 166 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: we got all the topics. You know, we had to 167 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: cover breaking news and Frank O'Hara's pass like minutes before 168 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: our show, and that's a challenge in and of itself 169 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: from like an execution standpoint. So I think we've just 170 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: become really proud of what we've done together over five months, 171 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: and that just doesn't seem like that long when you 172 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: consider that those two guys and the original cast members 173 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: were together for six years. Yeah. No, it's funny you 174 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: mentioned the European trips because to me, it's almost like 175 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 1: a relationship, like when you start dating someone and then 176 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: maybe you go on vacation with them or you start 177 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 1: to live together and you're like, oh, now we're really 178 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: sort of figuring this out. But it works, and it's like, Okay, 179 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 1: this is good, Like we're good. Everything's great. Right. Well, 180 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: so like in September, you know, this like was in 181 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,599 Speaker 1: real time documented on the show of Kyle and I 182 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 1: were on the same flight to London, and you know, 183 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: like you watch enough movies, you get a little scared 184 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: of like international travel and you're like going by yourself, 185 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: especially as a woman, and so I, in my mind 186 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: this came out a lot smoother than it did obviously. 187 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: But I texted Kyle something like, we don't we don't 188 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: have to talk, but I would I would like to 189 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: ride with you from Heathrow into London when we land, 190 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: and he on the show the next day was like 191 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: I just want to say something, and I was like, 192 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: you know, he goes. Jamie texted me this weird thing 193 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: yesterday and it's like, oh my lord, we are just right. 194 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 1: We're just doing this right on TV yep, And so 195 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: it became this holy phenomenon. Was like do you talk 196 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: to your coworkers on flights? And like I think I 197 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: think the world now is like waded in and everyone's 198 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: like pretty fifty fifty. And I still contend that I 199 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 1: didn't say we didn't have to talk at all. I 200 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: just meant like I didn't also want you to think 201 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: that like I'm gonna gnaw your ear off the way 202 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: that I do for three hours a day, you know, 203 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: just different parameters and like Peter, you know, probably like 204 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: poked the bear a little bit, and Jason like did 205 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: what he does best, which is like trying to listen 206 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: to both sides and like come down. And then like 207 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: months later, Blake Shelton was on last couple weeks ago, 208 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 1: and he like threw it back like more Stokes on 209 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 1: the fire, and I was like, okay, so okay, guys, 210 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: it's okay. Yeah. So like there's also like the fourth wall, 211 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: like it's broken sometimes with these guys, which I think, 212 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: like you said, makes the show really good. But yeah, 213 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: it's learning on the fly with like what's fair game, 214 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: which is everything it seems like, Yeah, absolutely, it seems 215 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: that way. So in kind of segueing from that, I'm 216 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 1: so interested in sort of just the rundown process of 217 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: this show. Do you have homework? Like, what is it like? 218 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: Let's just take this example, we're recording this on a Tuesday, 219 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: going from a Monday night game to your show Tuesday morning, 220 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: and maybe what that's like. Okay, so it's a little different. 221 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: I think they took them years to kind of like 222 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: come up with a system that worked, and I think 223 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: the show has been through a lot of editorial transformation, 224 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: if you will. So anyone listening keep in mind that, 225 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: I know I only know the last five months. So 226 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: what we have every day, and it's like a constant 227 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 1: working thing is a Google doc that we work on 228 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 1: and the rundowns in it. And the rundown is five 229 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: segments an hour for three hours, so fifteen blocks of time, 230 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: and we have segment producers that work. They're assigned to 231 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 1: various segments throughout the show and throughout the day. Yesterday, 232 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: for example, their segment producers will start to put the 233 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 1: questions in. You know, it's like, let's kick up that 234 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: NFC conversation again and what do you like, who do 235 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: you think is this or that? And then you know, 236 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: Robert Sala had this to say about Zach Wilson, and like, 237 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 1: let's give our takes about that. And we talked about 238 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: Packers Vikings and in those questions we write our answers, 239 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 1: and so you can kind of see what the other 240 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: guys are thinking. And you know, someone got somebody will 241 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: ask for, like Peter will ask for like let me 242 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: give me a nineteen seventy nine and NFC Championship game, 243 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 1: and you're like, of course, so here we go down, 244 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: I'm'm relaying Kyle's like unload all of like the Star 245 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: Wars references you can on how it pertains, and then 246 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,319 Speaker 1: then you kind of realize, okay, this is where we're going. Yeah, 247 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: So anyways, all those blocks get eaten up. What gets 248 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: left blank on a Monday, for example, is the A blocks. 249 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: The first the top of the hour, every hour is 250 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: saved for primary real estate for the Monday night football game. 251 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: Because what you figure is that rarely is someone up 252 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: the entire game to watch a whole game, and then 253 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 1: they are up for our show, So you want to 254 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: provide them to highlight as quickly as so whether or 255 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: not you stay up to watch the entire game is 256 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: there is your prerogative as a talent, as a production person, whatever, 257 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: But the point is you must know that when that 258 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: show starts next day, you're talking about that game from 259 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: the night before, so you got to watch it and 260 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 1: have So then we have a call at five thirty 261 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: in the morning and they'll say, we got all your 262 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: stuff in the document, no problem, but like, what do 263 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: you guys want to talk about from this chargers cold scheme? 264 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 1: And then we un mute and we give our takes 265 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: and I want to do this, I want to do that. 266 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: Everything gets a signed and then we see each other 267 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: again at seven am, and often running we go.

It seems like sort of situation 276 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 1: but never never seems like you guys feel totally out 277 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: of it because you have so much help on the 278 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: back end to sort of like you say, fill in 279 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: those blanks and get you guys caught up to speed. Yep, 280 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: that's so yeah, I'll be honest, I think, like I 281 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: think just my last thought on that. What I also 282 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: really have enjoyed learning about the show is that they've 283 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: really created like a sustainable production, where like it is 284 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: very collaborative, so like I don't think an entire week 285 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: goes by that I don't reach out to a sum's 286 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: producer and it's like I cannot come up with like 287 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: what elf on the shelf? Parallel, I would make like 288 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: to the NFL, can you help me? And then they'll 289 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: somebody will come up with it. Other times you have 290 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: this like bright light come on, You're like so proud 291 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: of this thing. But other like it is totally just teamwork, 292 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: and which I really like because people are really creative 293 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: who work on the show, and so I think it's 294 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: important to know that. Like there are some takes where 295 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: like Kyle will get done with something and we're like 296 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: where did you come up with that? And he'll be like, oh, 297 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: somebody emailed me. I'm like, God, is she yes, so fantastic? 298 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: Can you kind of actually, before we get to some 299 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: chargers talk, just elaborate on the importance of producers and 300 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: sort of that back end, because you've been in this 301 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: business for a long time. But I think it's refreshing 302 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: for those who might be younger, maybe sort of entering 303 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: to hear you say, Hey, I still rely on these guys. 304 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: I still rely on their help, lean on them for 305 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: certain things when I need them at times. Yeah, you know, 306 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: it's a really good question because I'm confident in saying 307 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: that there is not a single person that goes on 308 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: television unless it's your own like YouTube production from home 309 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: and you are. You never do this by yourself. You 310 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: never do it. It's just not this. This job does 311 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: not operate as a one man as a true one 312 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: man band. Now I'm not There are sports journalists to 313 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: local television journalists who go out, but you're still doing 314 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: your stuff bringing it back and some the TV is 315 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: putting it on television. It's the product of the news 316 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: show is putting your thing into the local rundown. So 317 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: you can't get anywhere without working with other people. It's 318 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 1: just not how it works in TV. You love sports 319 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: sports as a team game, so like you got to 320 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: treat it as such. So you know, if you especially 321 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: with fifteen hours a week of TV, if you think 322 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: you are so you have so much content year round 323 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: that you can do fifteen hours of NFL and have 324 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: them all be your own creative, unique ideas. You are 325 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: a unicorn, And I think that you should find a 326 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: job at a major network because I would really be 327 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: hard for us to think that somebody, one person could 328 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: do that, Like, so I think you have you just 329 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: have to open yourself up to that and realize that, 330 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: like even if it is let's say, your own idea. 331 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: Like I'll sit in hair and make up in the 332 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: morning and we have a producer that sits with us 333 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: in the room, and I'll just be like, oh, hadum, 334 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: I have this thought last night about justin Herbert, Like 335 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: you know, just help me put this into historical context 336 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: about what this means, or remind me what was said 337 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: to am I having this right? And like because your 338 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: wires get crossed and we all do all these different things, 339 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: and you know, just to have somebody else there to 340 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: bounce your ideas off of, because if the first time 341 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: you're like putting those thoughts out there on the universe 342 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: is on the show. Now I can get a little risky. 343 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 1: You know, it's good to run some things by people sometimes. 344 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: So I just think, you know, collaboration is key, and 345 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: it's a team game, and you know, you're all the 346 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 1: people are putting you on television. You should rely on 347 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: those people for help. Yeah, everyone's got teammates, even on 348 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: the TV side. Yeah. So yeah, So now let's segue 349 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: to this Chargers game. As I mentioned, they clinched the 350 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 1: playoff spot with the win over the Indianapolis Colts. We 351 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: get to see Justin Herbert in the postseason. This is 352 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,679 Speaker 1: a hot, hot hot topic. Twenty twenty draft class. What 353 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: are your thoughts on now seeing the Chargers make the 354 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: postseason for the first time since twenty eighteen. I'm really 355 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: happy for him. You know, I was watching the game 356 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 1: last night, and you know, from top to bottom, there 357 00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: are guys on that team that I think they've just 358 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:05,120 Speaker 1: been through the ring, you know, Austin Ekeler, Justin Herbert, 359 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: even like Coach Staley. You know, it's just like the 360 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: things that are said about the Chargers and it's not 361 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,239 Speaker 1: even like the doubters. I think at times it's like 362 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: blatant ignoring of like what does and does not go 363 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 1: down there is like really quite fascinating to me. I know, 364 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: there's like an LA media market conversation to be had 365 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: about that and time slots and whatever, and no one 366 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: knows that better than Justin Herbert playing college footblood Oregon. 367 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, but it's I'm really just really 368 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 1: happy the injuries they had to deal with early in 369 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 1: the season, the gains that they lost, and the way 370 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: that they lost, like that that first Chief's loss so backbreaking, 371 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: I think to like the national narrative of the team 372 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: because like the second that happened, the second they let 373 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: that one get away, it was like same old Chargers, 374 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,479 Speaker 1: and it was almost everyone was like, okay, great, like 375 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: we can just like put him in that bucket that 376 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: we always put him in. And then and then the 377 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: rematch in November, it's like, okay, great, reconfirm, but we thought, 378 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: you know, it's just like it's so not fair. So 379 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: I'm so thrilled that it happened the way that it did, 380 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: and it was interesting. I was looking at the stats 381 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 1: and you know, Justin's numbers were not Justin's numbers on 382 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: Monday Night, Like it wasn't just like what he usually does, 383 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: which is like frankly in a loss, like oh, three 384 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: eighty five yards, three touchdowns, but they lost. You know, 385 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: it's like that's kind of been his thing. It's like, 386 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: statistically amazing. Does the team show up in January? Haven't 387 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 1: seen it yet. So I'm happy for him, Like I 388 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: just straight up want to see what he's made up now, 389 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,640 Speaker 1: because now we can stop using this we've never seen 390 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert ship fuel as an excuse to kind of 391 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 1: exclude him from that class. Jamie, we are so over it. 392 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 1: We're so over here yet. So it's so good that 393 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: like this is like we're done, we got the Dolphins 394 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: gave out of the way. Oh yeah, we're moving on. 395 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: They're moving on, which is fantastic. You know, it has 396 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: you know, Kyle yesterday was on one about Kirk Cousins, 397 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 1: and it's kind of in the same vein, Like sure 398 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins has demons about like the moneies that he's 399 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 1: made and the games that he's lost, and the deals 400 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 1: that he's done and just kind of his general like 401 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 1: persona and people really love to hold that against him, 402 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: and like I find that like justin Herbert's gonna like 403 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: flirt with that, I think in his career because of 404 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 1: you know, where he went to college and where he plays, 405 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: and they's like until the team starts, you know. So 406 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: maybe the fact that he's biting this off like a 407 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: little bit earlier in his career and he doesn't have 408 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: to deal with it years and do it like Cousins 409 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: is still dealing with it. So I'm excited to see him. 410 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 1: I think they looked I think they looked solid last night, 411 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 1: and I think any of these games down the stretch 412 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 1: can be really tricky, and so I think they just 413 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: got the job done and they took care of business 414 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: and you just got to win kind of in brutal 415 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 1: ways sometimes and so what fields in Indianapolis. You got 416 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,400 Speaker 1: to do it? Yep. And the defense showed up certainly 417 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: against what has seems to be a very broken Colts 418 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 1: team right now. But you didn't. You didn't play down. 419 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:11,959 Speaker 1: You didn't let it that one get away from you. 420 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: And that's certainly what you want. Final question before we 421 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: let you go, looking at where this Charger's team is, 422 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: I think they could go as high as the five 423 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: probably stay at the six wherever it is in that 424 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 1: wild card seating. How do you maybe assess their chances 425 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 1: in the aff AFC race, excuse me? Up against teams 426 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: like you know, you might see Kansas City again, you 427 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 1: might see since your Buffalo for the first time. These 428 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 1: are some pretty good teams in the AFC. I had 429 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 1: a basketball coach when I was younger, tell me, and 430 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: this always stuck with me, and it applied to the 431 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,679 Speaker 1: sport that I played and then teams that I've covered. 432 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: It's really hard to beat a team three times in 433 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: a year. It's hard to play a team three times 434 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: in a year. I kind of I live in fear 435 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: of divisional playoff game. And I grew up in Minnesota, 436 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 1: so like Packers Vikings in the playoffs bad bad news, 437 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 1: like just stay away from it, so I don't. I 438 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: would not want the Chargers to have to deal with 439 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: the Chiefs like until way later, or like have someone 440 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 1: else deal with them in the opening round. And if 441 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: you got to go to Arrowhead again, like it just brutal, 442 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 1: Like I'd almost reb like blank s late. You know, 443 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,719 Speaker 1: Like that to me is like blank competition. You can 444 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: study all the film that you want, but like, roll 445 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: the ball out in Cincinnati for the first time, roll 446 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: the ball out in Buffalo, like God, Chargers at Bills, 447 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,919 Speaker 1: that sounds so fun, And I feel like because I 448 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: know like the Chiefs Chargers things, I know what would 449 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: be said, and like from a show perspective, like just 450 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: thinking about that, like Chargers Bills would be really fun 451 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: to talk about and prep for. So I just I 452 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 1: think that's what I've always stood by, is like divisional 453 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 1: playoff games in the first round especially really terrify me 454 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,439 Speaker 1: and I want nothing to do with them, So I 455 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: kind of don't wish that upon them whatsoever. Well, we 456 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: hope it doesn't come to that. But regardless, they're in 457 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: the tournament. As Brandon Staley said yesterday, it's a new 458 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: guy ginning for this team. You just gotta go take 459 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: your chances. You've got two more games in the regular season, 460 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: hopefully kind of shore up some things over these last 461 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: couple weeks before you get there. But they've got the ticket. Jamie, 462 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining me. It's been so 463 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 1: great to talk to you, to get to know you. 464 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: Congratulations on everything too with GMFB. Thank you, Haley. I 465 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 1: really appreciate it, have fun. In January covering Pole season football. 466 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:28,959 Speaker 1: Thank you,
