Who's 0:01:29.560 --> 0:01:33.279 Chad Michael Michael's partner? I don't remember, I don't remember. 0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:38.520 Was Napoleon Dynamite? Yeah, that dude. So best sidekicks in 0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:42.920 honor of Jay Z, who turns fifty six today. Now 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.400 you don't think of him as a sidekick. That's the point. 0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:49.680 Yes he was. Though he was a sidekick and became 0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:53.920 the main attraction, became the bigger star. Everybody starts somewhere. 0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:57.160 I get it. I mean I started off as someone's sidekick. Yeah, 0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:00.840 when we first started. You were in Mike Guermo, you 0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:04.280 know what. I was a producer and sidekick on the 0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:07.520 air in New York City k Rock, New York on 0:02:07.600 --> 0:02:10.720 a show called Solid State with Liquid Todd. So its 0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:14.880 Liquid Todd and El Covino, and I was his sidekick, right, 0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:18.640 that are not bilingual. That's Theveno Cavino. 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:19.000 You know. 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:21.799 It's a mixed show on a rock station Saturday Nights 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.840 and things like that. But jay Z got his start 0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:28.200 as the sidekick to a rapper named Jazz, and he 0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:32.480 became the greatest of all time arguably. I mean you 0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:35.200 can say this ll Cooljay. He coined the term goat. 0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:37.399 But jay Z is one of the best in the game, 0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:41.639 no doubt. So the conversation today Old School and fifty 0:02:41.680 --> 0:02:44.040 Hits stoning it back on a Thursday named some of 0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:46.560 those sidekicks that became the big star. You know what 0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:49.440 is interesting, We have so much great feedback phones Drew Lits, 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:51.240 So I don't want to take anyone's answer, but you know, 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:56.040 it's another category besides athletes, music, movies, TV shows. Do 0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:57.840 you guys ever look, this is a weird way to 0:02:57.840 --> 0:02:59.360 look at it, But did you ever look at offensive 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:03.400 and defensive coordinators like sidekicks to the head coach, and 0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:05.880 some become a head coach and you're like, yep, they're 0:03:05.880 --> 0:03:08.320 meant to do it. But then there's others like Jim Schwartz, 0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:11.959 Robert Salah, Wade Phillips Back of the Day where you're like, no, no, 0:03:12.120 --> 0:03:14.960 you're better is like the sidekick almost like you're better 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:18.520 as a like Josh McDaniel is an offensive coordinator, not 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:20.760 a head coach. Like there are some guys that I 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:25.119 hate to call a successful coordinator in professional sports a sidekick, 0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:27.880 but it's almost what they are, right, I totally see 0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:31.720 what you're saying. Absolutely, yeah. I think there's like I 0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:33.600 could think, off the top of my off the top 0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:35.920 of the dome, like Harry mack off the top of 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:40.400 the dome, two primo examples, and I'll use that to 0:03:40.480 --> 0:03:43.520 kick it off, okay, because I think they're so obvious, 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:46.760 like iconic examples of what we're talking about. And Danny 0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:48.960 g when he was produced and he threw the same 0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:53.960 exact examples out there. Number one has to be our 0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:58.160 good pal, Henry Winkler, the Fonds. He was just the sidekick. 0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:00.680 He wasn't meant to be the main guy. Hey, he 0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:03.960 was the mechanic on happy days. He was there for 0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:06.560 like comic relief for the A and oh, and he 0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:09.920 became the dude. He became the main attraction to Big Star. 0:04:10.000 --> 0:04:13.480 He's Henry Winkler the Fons. Fons is iconic, but he 0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:15.440 wasn't meant to be iconic. He was meant to be 0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:19.080 just the sidekick, ancillary character. No, bigger than Pozzi and 0:04:19.200 --> 0:04:22.760 Ralph Mouth. He was the guy, became legend, and it's 0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:24.800 a very similar story, so I might as well say it. 0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:26.880 It's the same exact story with Steve Urkle. Did I 0:04:27.040 --> 0:04:29.320 do that? You're supposed to be just the goofy neighbor 0:04:29.360 --> 0:04:33.240 and he stole the showy cheese. He's seen Steeler, right, 0:04:33.320 --> 0:04:36.239 he became the guy. Now, listen, you could give us examples. 0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:39.480 Danny g was all about sidekicks that became their own 0:04:39.560 --> 0:04:42.280 number one guy. But if you just have some funny sidekicks, 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:43.800 you could throw those in there as well. But let's 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:45.320 go to the phones. I don't want to take answers. 0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:48.560 I'm looking at the feedback on the inshow I had 0:04:48.600 --> 0:04:51.280 to throw those two out there because those are two 0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:54.279 primo TV examples, just to kick it off, just to 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:58.440 get it going. Here's one if you're a wrestling fan. 0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:02.360 Joey Elbow says, Virgil was a great sidekick, the late 0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:04.479 great Virgil for the million dollars madekick where he was 0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:07.000 never there. They tried to make him go. He went 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:08.479 solo for a minute, but then I was like, what's 0:05:08.600 --> 0:05:11.320 Virgil without the million dollar man? Right? I always looked 0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:14.040 at him as a million dollar man's sidekick. So he 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.039 was a great sidekick where he was never he never 0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:18.960 blew up to be the guy like Nature Boy thirty 0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:20.560 two hit us up on the intro, he goes, would 0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:23.360 you guys consider because a lot of times I consider 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:26.480 the color commentator the sidekick to the play by play guy. 0:05:26.480 --> 0:05:31.440 We will say that John Madden was Pat Summer all sidekick. Again, 0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:33.600 I could see the thought process there. I think that's 0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:37.280 fun for speculation and fun conversation. Yeah, I could see 0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:40.240 that because you do assume or associate the color guy 0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:43.120 as the sidekick to the main broadcast. 0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:45.880 Except John Madden had been the head coach of the 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:49.159 Oakland Exactly. 0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:51.880 I had star power. He was the star. He had 0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:54.480 star Let's let's go to the phones and then I 0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:56.520 have some really good ones as well. So, uh, let's 0:05:56.520 --> 0:06:00.240 say how to our guy, most generous friend we have 0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:03.120 at FSR trip and Vacas? What trip? What's up? 0:06:03.920 --> 0:06:07.440 Hey, goodfternoon, gentlemen. I got a couple that was that 0:06:07.480 --> 0:06:10.920 would be Jimmy McElroy, was Chad Michael and Michael partner. 0:06:11.240 --> 0:06:11.720 It's great. 0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:16.159 Uh, the offensive coordinator one in my time, I would 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:19.159 say North Turner, Yeah, grade as a head coach, but 0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:20.440 he was phenomenal as a coordinator. 0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:21.200 Great example. 0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:24.839 And then I got two sports ones. I would say 0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:27.080 these may not be what you were talking about, but 0:06:27.080 --> 0:06:30.000 I would say lou Garrick because the Babe Roof was 0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:32.760 a man, and then Louke Garrick became his own star. 0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:37.120 And then the second one, people forget Barry Sanders backed 0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:39.000 up Thurman Thomas at Oklahoma State. 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:43.480 That's a wilder. What a what a running back room? Yeah? Crazy? 0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:45.719 That was you see you see that in college football 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:48.360 sometimes like what was the quarterback groom for? Those were 0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:50.800 cool answers because again, you're playing in the shadows a 0:06:50.839 --> 0:06:53.919 little bit of a bigger star, so not necessarily a sidekick, 0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:55.880 but it still applies. Those are great examples. Thank you 0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:58.240 Trip Jay in Minnesota, Jay your own C and R. 0:06:58.240 --> 0:06:59.919 What's up, Bud hey. 0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:02.760 Man, thanks for getting Nicoll. I got one that's it's 0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:05.159 for TV. Back in the day, there was a super 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:09.960 hero show called The Green Hornet and his driver was 0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:13.640 his sidekick, and the guy who was his driver was 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:14.320 Bruce Lee. 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:17.840 Yeah, oh, get on a super cool example, man, I 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:20.120 love that example. What was the sidekick on Ason Gary 0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:23.760 your favorite cartoon. I always thought Gary was the sidekick 0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:27.480 David Reno. It's up, Dave. That's a great example. Thank you. 0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:29.640 Hey guys. 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:33.520 Yeah, remember when Jimmy Kimmel used to be the sidekick 0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:35.640 for when ben Stein's Money, and then he got his 0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:37.080 own talk show late night. 0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:41.480 Dude, good one, man, a real good one. Really interesting. 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:45.200 We brought up Germo Kimmel's was on the Brain, But yeah, 0:07:45.240 --> 0:07:49.120 he was ben Stein's random guy. I actually kind of 0:07:49.160 --> 0:07:50.920 forgot until you said it. He was kind of the 0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:53.560 MC of whin ben Stein's in the Money, he's the host. 0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:55.880 I thought he was going to say the Man Show 0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:59.000 or something like, Yeah, Jimmy, Jimmy Kimmel was the sports 0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:01.280 guy on Kevin and Bean right yeah, which was a 0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:03.800 big radio show out here in La. Can I give 0:08:03.800 --> 0:08:06.480 you one that Jeff hit us up with Jeff our buddy? 0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:10.760 Who is in? Where's Jeff living in these shape?

Yeah, 0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:20.520 choosy moms, choose Jeff. It's a beautiful kid, beautiful wife, 0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:22.480 But I forget where he lives anyway. Jeff goes, he 0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:25.240 lives on a boat somewhere. No, he used to live 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:27.800 on a cruise ship. He did our buddy, Jeff said 0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:29.760 one you guys will never think of. So he's gonna 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:34.079 throw it out there, Saul Goodman. I love that answer. 0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:36.920 He goes it was a side character on Breaking Bed 0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:40.200 and goes everyone loves to say Breaking Bed best show ever, 0:08:40.320 --> 0:08:42.880 and he goes, better call Saul was a fantastic spinoff. 0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:46.360 U props to Bob Odenkirk too, who listens to our show. 0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:51.400 That's a great, great answer because he really listens. Yeah, 0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:53.920 he became a big star of a zone, had his 0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:57.480 own spin off, and people, if you downplay better Call Saul, 0:08:57.559 --> 0:08:59.960 you missed out because that show was great. It dipped 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:01.960 for a minute, came back so strong. 0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:02.240 I love. 0:09:02.240 --> 0:09:03.920 That's a great answer. Can I give you one that's 0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:07.560 getting their own spinoff after all these years? You go 0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:10.120 to Universal, you see it everywhere. One of the best 0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:13.240 kids movies. You just saw the documentary about Eddie Murphy. 0:09:14.559 --> 0:09:16.480 There's a new Shrek coming out, but there's also a 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:20.680 spinoff called Dunkey. There's a Donkey is getting his own 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:24.360 movie star in his own movie movie. Yeah, put some 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:26.280 boots down and let me let me throw one more 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.040 at you in the music world, because this is one 0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:31.400 I don't think anyone will mention, but we all know 0:09:31.480 --> 0:09:36.920 Kid Rock famous dude Uncle Cracker, who had like a 0:09:37.000 --> 0:09:40.640 handful of radio hits. Uncle Cracker was Kids Rock can 0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:43.160 DJ on tour. You know what's interesting about that too, 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:45.600 He wasn't even the second most famous guy in that group, 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:48.440 because that would say Joe c Remember Little Joe said 0:09:49.360 --> 0:09:52.920 had more game than kal Eco. Little dude. Yeah, he 0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.960 was the second guy in Kid Rock's band, and you're right, 0:09:56.040 --> 0:09:58.559 Uncle Cracker became the guy after that, so props to him. 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:00.560 That's a good one one that I've be watching on 0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:03.800 Netflix lately. I started from season one, episode one, because 0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:05.520 I've never seen the older episode. 0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:10.320 Seinfeld George Costanza, what I mean, what a great Yeah, 0:10:10.360 --> 0:10:11.240 what a great character. 0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:14.720 That show would not be the same without that sidekick 0:10:14.800 --> 0:10:15.680 to Seinfeld. 0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:18.440 Costanzo was like the comic group and then Kramer two. 0:10:18.520 --> 0:10:21.640 That show is just unbelievable, and it applies because obviously 0:10:21.679 --> 0:10:24.800 each character of that show became their own star, you know, 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:29.079 because the show got so big, so based on Jay 0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:32.480 Z's birthday. He started as a sidekick to another rapper 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:35.800 named Jazz, but became the biggest star. Who are some 0:10:35.840 --> 0:10:38.360 other guys that started as a sidekick and became a 0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:41.480 huge star, just like that Dwight in Kentucky? What's up? 0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:42.080 D White? 0:10:42.760 --> 0:10:43.360 What's happening? 0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:43.559 Man? 0:10:44.200 --> 0:10:45.280 What's good to hear from you? 0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:47.640 Hey, y'all have taken all the good ones, man, I 0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:50.400 have had to do my list over real quick. 0:10:51.640 --> 0:10:52.839 Okay, I got to go one for you though. 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:54.160 Y'all remember tears right? 0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:57.360 Of course?

Let me hit you with 0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:06.520 the show from that same generation. I was just thinking, 0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:09.640 like you would talk about Erkele and the fonds and 0:11:10.080 --> 0:11:12.679 side characters that were sort of the star. Would you 0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:17.080 say that rerun on What's Happening? I don't know, but 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:19.319 he wasn't really a big star, but I'm saying like 0:11:20.880 --> 0:11:22.400 he was the fun of the show. I love his 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:23.120 dance moves. 0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:27.400 Rich Would you say Carlton was the sidekick to Fresh 0:11:27.440 --> 0:11:30.120 Prince on Fresh Prince. 0:11:30.240 --> 0:11:33.040 And he was It was interesting about a Fonso Robiro, 0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:36.600 who were pals with kind of sort of we like 0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:38.840 him the means he took a picture with him one time. 0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:40.800 He was like the biggest star of the eighties. But 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:42.920 there was a time where we were bumping into him everywhere. 0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:45.480 Danny j to the point where he couldn't avoid being 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:47.600 our path. But dude, he was in commercials and dancing 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:50.400 around Michael Jackson in the eighties. He's got silver spoons. 0:11:50.640 --> 0:11:52.800 He was doing like dance videos. He was everywhere. It 0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:56.000 was the tap dance kid. That dude was like all 0:11:56.120 --> 0:12:00.160 things famous for a child act or in the eighties 0:12:00.480 --> 0:12:02.760 and then became the sidekick to you like Will Smith. 0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:03.880 He was already way famous. 0:12:03.880 --> 0:12:04.080 We were. 0:12:04.320 --> 0:12:06.600 We were at a party once and I just remember 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:10.280 and it's not a name drop, it's Alfonso Orbero, but 0:12:10.320 --> 0:12:12.319 I remember that we were at a party once where 0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:14.959 I think Alfonso Arbero just sat down and talked to 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:17.240 our video guy Spot for an hour just because he 0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:19.199 didn't really know anyone else at the party and didn't 0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:20.920 want to be bothered. So I think he was just like, 0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:24.120 I'll talk to spot Spot and uh in Alfonso Arbero 0:12:24.160 --> 0:12:26.400 best friend. Yeah, people don't know that, so again, the 0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:29.840 sidekick that became the big star. All Right, Allison in 0:12:29.880 --> 0:12:31.480 the QUS, what's up Syracuse. 0:12:32.160 --> 0:12:34.360 Hey, I'm so excited to talk to you guys. 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:38.400 Favor You're our favorite listener in Syracuse. Go get some 0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:41.520 dinosaur barbecue. I went there. I was I'm a Syracuse guy. 0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:44.120 I knew you were a Spiracuse guy. I listened to 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:47.160 your show. You're missing a lot of snow right now, 0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:49.240 so you probably don't want to be here tonight, but 0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:52.240 I do not love to make my commune home. I'm 0:12:52.240 --> 0:12:53.760 in a good mood when I get home from work 0:12:53.800 --> 0:12:56.559 because if you talk about you like you're my best friends. 0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:59.400 So I have one is sticking with the TV theme, 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:02.280 and I think I'm in your funeral age range. You 0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:05.880 might remember, although you may not have watched, Jennifer Garner 0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:10.640 started out as Felicity sidekick. Felicity was Kerrie Russell, and 0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:13.160 I love Kerrie Russell. She was in that American show. 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:17.880 Jennifer Garner's everywhere. She's in you know, Superhero movie. She's 0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:21.199 married to Ben Affleck. She's on every other commercial. 0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:25.600 What's What's What's in your Yeah? Yeah, that's it. That's 0:13:25.600 --> 0:13:27.080 a good one. You know what I was thinking of 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:29.800 another president in our age group as well. When you 0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:35.000 were kids, you were atch Doogie Howser. Cavino used to 0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:38.320 love Vinnie Delpino, Hey do the Neighbor. But when I 0:13:38.320 --> 0:13:41.920 think of Neil Patrick Harris, much like Erkele and the Funds, 0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:44.520 How I Met Your Mother is a story of Ted 0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:49.199 explaining how you met the mom, Barney Stinson became the 0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:52.480 star of that show. Great answers, Neil Patrick Harris. That's 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:54.080 one of my favorite shows that also I meant to 0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:57.199 be Neil Patrick Harris like the main guy. I mean, 0:13:57.440 --> 0:14:01.000 Ted's like one of those like haterable lovable characters. You know, 0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:04.560 Jason Siegel, Alison Haddigan, they a great cast. Love the show. 0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:07.520 But let's be honest, any clip or any memory you 0:14:07.520 --> 0:14:10.280 have of that show is like Barney Stinson was the 0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:12.600 funny of that show. No doubt. I think it's a 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:14.760 great exac. I think that's right up there with as 0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:18.160 a modern day ercle Fonds exam. Now I think again 0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:22.480 side character becoming the big star. I'm gonna stretch this out. 0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:25.080 This is based on Jay Z. Would you say Tupac 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:28.240 could be in this conversation because he was in digital 0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:33.360 underground as a backup dancer, nothing but trouble and then 0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:36.960 became an iconic wrapper and in face of hip hop. 0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:41.720 So he was just a backup dude to the Humpty Dance. 0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:44.120 Do you guys, I mean, I'm going back to Neil 0:14:44.120 --> 0:14:46.240 Patrick Harris for a second. Do you guys know the 0:14:46.280 --> 0:14:49.080 story of how he sort of landed that role, because 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:52.680 we forget he was a child star Doogie Howser MD 0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:56.680 and then you know he came out openly gay man. Right, 0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:59.200 so we're talking about openly gay guy who was a 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:03.240 child star. How does he become like the womanizer on 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:07.720 CBS's biggest sitcom. They saw that he could play that 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:11.080 sort of role just by his cameo in Harold and 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:13.240 Koomar Go to White Castle. Yeah, that's a great thing. 0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:15.200 Remember he had that sweet cameo. It's like, Yo, that's 0:15:15.280 --> 0:15:18.160 Neil Patrick Karris playing like a vulgar maniac. Ye ye, 0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:21.320 So that little cameos it shed a different light on 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:23.680 It's like, Wow, Neil Patrick Carris could play that type 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:26.360 of role. And man, hey dude, if you say I'm 0:15:26.400 --> 0:15:29.480 stretching and this doesn't count, then by all means, let 0:15:29.480 --> 0:15:32.000 me know. But that's one of my favorite shows growing 0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:35.960 up was Pee Wee's play has That's why I feel 0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:40.240 like this is Stevie's playhouse, but pee Wee was the star. 0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:43.400 Is that why when Dan Byer does up thatate, you say, 0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:51.920 Michaelikahei mccahido, Hey Dan Byer. So if you remember those Stevie, 0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:53.960 there was a guy named Cowboy Curtis that would come 0:15:53.960 --> 0:15:56.960 in and he'd hang out with Pee Wee Herman Cowboy Curtis. 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.560 Cowboy Curtis turned out to be a big time movie star. 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:02.200 But the name of Lawrence Fishburn. So I don't know 0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:03.840 if that applies. And a lot of people don't even 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:07.040 realize that Lawrence Fishburn is common knowledge to some but 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:08.720 to other people are like, wait a second, wait, I 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:10.680 know it because that's I know because you're a big 0:16:10.720 --> 0:16:12.680 pee fan. But they talk about that in the Peewee 0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:14.720 documentary and it's fantastic. What's up the bag? 0:16:14.800 --> 0:16:16.520 I was going to just add another one to this. 0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:19.560 You guys are talking about jay Z. Obviously you guys 0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:24.040 were mentioning Tupac, I think as of late Toto. Remember 0:16:24.080 --> 0:16:27.480 these are just session guys in you know, making music 0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:29.600 for everything else and now all of a sudden like 0:16:29.720 --> 0:16:33.280 let's just have our own band and total becomes huge. 0:16:33.360 --> 0:16:35.680 Yes, yeah, that's a good one, dude. If I'm not mistaken, 0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:38.840 Toto did the Thriller album, like they were the musicians 0:16:38.880 --> 0:16:39.400 on that album. 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:41.680 Yeah, a lot of the songs yes, yes, and human 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:44.880 Nature Uh yeah, I was written by one of the 0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:45.600 guys in Toto. 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:49.400 Oh you know whom based on that? The Eagles. They 0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:52.720 were Linda rod Stance, like backup band and then boom 0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:54.080 they become the Eagles. 0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:56.880 You know, a guy in the eighties music scene, we 0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:59.640 couldn't turn the radio on without hearing Phil Collins. 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:03.760 He definitely I mean he was a drummer, yeah, Genesis, 0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:10.919 but he was yeah, so again sidekick, not the main dude. 0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:15.280 Then the main dude is basically the conversation here, trying 0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:16.880 to think, you know, you know me, I was never 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:19.600 sold on this. I was trying to think if there 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:21.520 was a wrestling example of like someone that was like 0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:24.719 became the star. Yeah, I'm I'm racking my brain through. 0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:26.560 I'm like Scottie Pippen, But he was never really the 0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:31.080 main guy after that, you know, he's always. 0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:36.000 I kind of made him mentioned earlier today about Mike 0:17:36.040 --> 0:17:39.760 Holmgren and being the assistant to Bill Walsh. We look 0:17:39.840 --> 0:17:43.520 back at there was an NFL films deal where they 0:17:43.560 --> 0:17:46.480 talked about all of the head coaches that worked under 0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:50.760 Mike Homgren that were former assistants that became head coaches. 0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:53.480 But I think I think that Homegren was like the 0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:57.920 first one, the hot assistant where that branched from Bill Walsh. 0:17:58.000 --> 0:18:00.200 Of course I remember because I remember him as a 0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:02.320 Niners fan. I remember my and then being like, Wow, 0:18:02.359 --> 0:18:04.680 he's on his own now and he's yes, star coach. 0:18:04.800 --> 0:18:10.040 Would Belichick under Parcels apply here? Yes? Yes, kind of yes, right, 0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:13.920 at one point he was the sidekick? Yeah, right, based 0:18:13.960 --> 0:18:16.480 on your couple before, not only at one point a 0:18:16.520 --> 0:18:18.840 couple of times, because there were a couple of ten years. 0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:21.680 Was first with the Giants and then even with the Jets. 0:18:21.880 --> 0:18:24.080 He went and worked for Parcels. 0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:27.840 And you know, I think we're seeing we're seeing a 0:18:27.840 --> 0:18:31.520 guy like Ben Johnson become the star if the if 0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:34.040 the if the Bears keep winning, you're not gonna look 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:36.560 at Ben Johnson is like you know that clever play 0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:38.919 calling coordinator for the Lions. You're gonna be like, do 0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:41.720 you mean the head coach that is giving the Bears 0:18:41.800 --> 0:18:45.679 glory for the first time in like decades. So it 0:18:45.800 --> 0:18:49.200 is pretty interesting though, because jay Z really was again 0:18:49.280 --> 0:18:53.840 like the hype man, the sidekick to another rapper question flavor, 0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:57.360 flav He's always a side always, he's like the consummate sidekick. 0:18:57.400 --> 0:18:59.840 He's like Scottie Pippeny, but he's he's the second everyone 0:18:59.840 --> 0:19:04.000 know him. Well, he's super famous, but that's his role. Yeah, 0:19:04.119 --> 0:19:05.600 all right, but he did. But you know what, Rich, 0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:08.440 You're right, he became a TV star, right, No, that's 0:19:08.440 --> 0:19:12.240 a good answer. You become his own star. So yeah, 0:19:12.359 --> 0:19:14.320 I would say that that is. But he's he's like 0:19:14.359 --> 0:19:18.320 the consummate sidekick or hype man. I don't know, that's 0:19:18.359 --> 0:19:20.159 a good one. Let's go to Jim in Vegas. 0:19:20.160 --> 0:19:24.520 Hey Jim, Hey guys, thank you guys for taking my call. 0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:25.760 No problem, man, what's up. 0:19:26.280 --> 0:19:27.800 Becoming big fans of you guys? 0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:28.840 I mean, oh, thanks. 0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:31.679 That in for Dan Patrick one morning and now you 0:19:31.760 --> 0:19:34.480 guys got me listening to you every afternoon. 0:19:34.160 --> 0:19:36.720 Like, hey man, that means it's work.
