26
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: yeah to us.

27
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 2: According to us, you could add to the list because

28
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 2: there's a story about Drake and I'm calling our first discussion.

29
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: You can call it whatever you want. Beards are false advertising,

30
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: That's what I'm calling it. Oh, I thought I was

31
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: gonna name it Saved by the Beard or yeah. For

32
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 1: guys like Spot, yeah, man, the beard really helped them

33
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: out here. There are some people without the beard. They

34
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: would be completely different. Like we're talking, you could go

35
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: from a guy that's slaying it to a guy that

36
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: would get no booty, a guy that guys think he's

37
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: a cool guy, or who's that nerd. Beard can change

38
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: it all.

39
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 2: Do you remember that movie I'm Gonna Get You Suck

40
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 2: Out keenan Ivory WANs He's with this woman and she

41
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 2: takes off her wig, she takes off her eyelashes, she

42
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: takes off all her makeup, then she starts taking off

43
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 2: her legs and he's like, what you know, that's not

44
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 2: what he thought was going on here for me, that's

45
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:24,959
Speaker 2: the beard for women.

46
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: You can see I'm hating. Look, I've had facial hair

47
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: for a long time. It's a little gray now, so

48
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: I don't grow it in as much. Rich. You frocked

49
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: the beard, So I'm not hating on the beard. It

50
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: adds character. But what's really going on underneath that beard

51
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: is my question? We got to decide, Well, first of all,

52
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: what is a beard like what I have? Now? This

53
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: is a scrub, but it's a beard because if I

54
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 1: was clean shaven, I would look different. But I'm talking

55
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: guys like our video producer Spot who listen, when I

56
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: met this guy way different than the guy taking Jim

57
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 1: selfies now with his muscles and beard. Spot, why don't

58
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 1: you show everyone a little before and after of yourself

59
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: before we get in this story about Matt Eberfluse. Why

60
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: are you coming for me? Because I'll be honest, I

61
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: feel like you're culprit number one? What did I do

62
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: to you? Okay, here's the here's the now. Yeah, you

63
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,359
Speaker 1: go to the that's spot. When I first met him,

64
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: going that beard is what I want to know. You know,

65
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: this is this is the this is the that beard works. Matt,

66
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: You're sorry. Spot went to the barber Yea and brought

67
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: a picture of Travis Kelcey.

68
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 2: And said, hook it up. But he's had that beard

69
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 2: for a while. Now becomes the look. It really changes

70
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 2: the guy, not only in your physical appearance, it changes

71
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 2: their attitude big time. And the biggest story actually aired

72
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 2: this week. Have you guys watched Chicago Bears Hard Knocks

73
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: on HBO Max, Oh.

74
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: You mean the Caleb Williams documentary.

75
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,839
Speaker 2: Well, it's mostly about Caleb Williams so far, but there

76
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 2: was a major part of the episode that was about

77
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 2: head coach Matt Eberflew. I had to look it up

78
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 2: because he's fifty four. Yeah, that's Matt Eberflew.

79
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, yeah, exactly because prior to well recent episodes,

80
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: you picture him as a tired, old white guy. He's

81
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: a fifty four year old guy. But that's kind of

82
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: how you knew him. Right.

83
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 2: Well, in the off season he started to let the

84
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 2: scruff grow and the beard was coming in and his

85
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 2: pretty attractive younger wife, Oh, I mean she looks.

86
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 1: I mean he's an NFL coach. Yeah. She was like,

87
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: why don't you let it grow out? It looks good?

88
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: And he's like, you think so, I mean, you have

89
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: an attractive younger girlfriend and you're just a radio podcaster. Yeah. Yeah,

90
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: he's not that far.

91
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 2: Fast, right, He's like you think so, She's like, yeah,

92
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,559
Speaker 2: it looks good, and he's like, oh, so he starts

93
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: letting the beard grow out. I'm ad libbing the story

94
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 2: here on Hard Knocks, right, because this is the only

95
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 2: part where they divert from Kayleb Williams back to Caleb Boyhams.

96
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 1: No, no, no. He goes, well, what about the hair to

97
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: hair sort of looks like, you know, tired and gray

98
00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 1: and head coach. And she's like, yeah, why don't you

99
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: get a Ryan Reynolds sort of haircut. So he takes

100
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: the Ryan Reynolds picture, brings it to the barber. They

101
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: give him a sweet little fade up shape up, and

102
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: now he's looking like an Adonis now, and now he's

103
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: really films.

104
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,559
Speaker 2: Even the wife goes, he thinks he's a lot cooler now,

105
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 2: and then she goes, he is a lot cooler now, dude.

106
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 2: Even his name with Eberfluse sounding like aie. Now the

107
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 2: guy's got a changed image. Now listen, I'm not you

108
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 2: could say, who gives a shit about a beard? But

109
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 2: I feel like his new cool image goes with the

110
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 2: new cool Chicago Bears vibe. Dude, this team has.

111
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: Revamped and retold and rebranded so much their coaching even

112
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: got cooler.

113
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 2: I couldn't agree with you more. Of course, we're taking

114
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 2: shots at people with their beard. Hey, what's going on

115
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 2: in false advertising? But it does add a lot to

116
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 2: the vibe. It works for a lot of people, could

117
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 2: work for you, just switch it up. I think he's

118
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 2: bringing a different sense of confidence to the team, and

119
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 2: he looks cooler to a young, cooler team. I think

120
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 2: he's building that relationship with Kayleb Williams.

121
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: He how looks like that. It's crazy the difference. And

122
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: by the way, spot they let me tell you, the

123
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: pictures don't do it justice. When you see him interacting

124
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: and you see him moving now he seems like a

125
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:17,600
Speaker 1: cooler guy, a more relevant guy with the modern days look.

126
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: It works for him. Did he go to Turkey? And

127
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 1: by the way, Richard, I wasn't the only one. I

128
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: wasn't the only one.

129
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,840
Speaker 2: That really sort of noticed how grat he looks, because

130
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 2: it became like a trending thing, like hold on after

131
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 2: the episode air and everyone's like, have you seen mad Heberflus?

132
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 2: And now you guys know and that makes us think

133
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 2: of some of these before and afters that really changed

134
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 2: the guy and how he looked and maybe the trajectory

135
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 2: of their image and career.

136
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 1: Well. A lot of times money helps, right and people

137
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 1: getting hair work done or just that's meme. It's like

138
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: you're not ugly or just poor. You grow into your

139
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: look too. And I think of Steve Carell now listen,

140
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,479
Speaker 1: I get it because sometimes the role calls for it.

141
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: But when he was Michael Scott on the Office, even

142
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 1: in early seasons when he was losing the hairline, versus

143
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: Steve Carell, when he's on the morning show on Apple

144
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: TV or just current day, Steve Carell, it's got the scruff,

145
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: with the glasses a little gray. That's the same guy

146
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: who said it rich.

147
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 2: If you ever backtracked and watched The Office, you realize

148
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 2: that he was thinning out big time, big me and

149
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 2: then probably took that flight to Turkey, like you said,

150
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 2: got the all inclusive, got the transplant, the hair plug.

151
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: But the beard helped. Heil the beard helped, and he

152
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: went from like goofy Steve Carell, lovable Steve Carell to

153
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: like I think women see him as a sexy older guy,

154
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: like a sex symbol almost, and he is. He's a

155
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: handsome dude. Now, there are guys that are handsome that

156
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: even with a clean shape, they look handsome, but the

157
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: beard makes women lose their shit, like the Cloonies and

158
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: Ryan Reynolds. And there's guys that are handsome with or

159
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,000

191
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 2: many At times. You're not thinking Johnny Damon, you're thinking

192
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 2: Kevin Euculus.

193
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 1: Kevin Euclus was one of the He was your quintessential

194
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: cowboy up Red Sox. And by the way, the beard

195
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: and the photo. You see there his his beard is

196
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: pretty well groomed. He had a gross beard going on

197
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 1: for wait for this, side by side the Yeah, I

198
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: mean this is a great example of what a beer

199
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: could do for you. He lost all intimidation factor. Yeah,

200
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: he was not comfortable. You know, it's a confidence killer.

201
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: Look at it, says perspective. Spot.

202
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 2: I bet when you get your beard trimmed up and

203
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 2: your sweet fade as you got right now, anybody can

204
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 2: relate to that sweet fresh haircut. You feel like a

205
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 2: sense of false confidence.

206
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: You feel like the man. I feel like the man

207
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: if someone's forcing you to change that look yesterday. Look

208
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 1: at this.

209
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 2: You think Kevin yuklos Ever felt great about looking like

210
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 2: that without the beard. You grow accustomed to that look, man,

211
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 2: And I bet you a spot. I bet you're scared

212
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 2: to see what you look like about that beard. You know,

213
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 2: it's like when you saw your dad went out his

214
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 2: mustache as a kid.

215
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: You're like, oh, no, former Yankee now met Severino. They

216
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,959
Speaker 1: asked him what's the biggest difference between playing Crosstown Queens

217
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 1: or the Bronx New York Yankees New York Mets. He

218
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,559
Speaker 1: jokingly said, the biggest difference. Yeah, with the Mets, I

219
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: don't have to shave and look like a nerd. It's

220
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: definitely a better look. As far as intimidation factor in sports,

221
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: there's no question about it. But you know what, like

222
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 1: every conversation we have so is beard false advertising or

223
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: does the beard make the man? Like every conversation we

224
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 1: have on over promised and convin on Rich, I know

225
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: you like a lesson to be learned or a number

226
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: one answer on the board, there is clearly a number one.

227
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 1: A guy that is known as the Beard, a guy

228
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 1: that before the Beard was as intimidating as a schoolboy,

229
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 1: and now he's an NBA superstar. Used to be called

230
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: James Softon, Now he's James Harden. This is the best

231
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: example by far. James Softon on the last there is

232
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: James Harden on the right. I have another photo. Is

233
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 1: this real? Yes, that's James Soften.

234
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 2: Yes, maybe that's real, maybe not, but it might as

235
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 2: well be because was doing under There is the question.

236
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 2: This is the one, by the way, you said he's

237
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 2: known for the Beard. Honestly, can I give honorable mention

238
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 2: and give credit to where I think credits due? And

239
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 2: I think we often forget how the beard came back.

240
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 1: It's been around. It came back, and it's been around

241
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: for a long time. Mate, I think Curtis give it

242
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:53,239
Speaker 1: a shout out to Chester, Ay, Arthur Chester. No, Brian Wilson,

243
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 1: not the beach boy the picture, Fear the Beard. He's

244
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 1: the guy that brought it back. And he used to diet.

245
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: If you're looking at it and you're thinking, is that

246
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: even real? Yes, but he would diet and no, dude,

247
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 1: people rallied around that beard and it became a thing.

248
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: When you think back, yeah, you think James Harden, and

249
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: you think of all the Red Sox players. But he

250
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: was the first guy to really, in my recent memory,

251
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 1: to bring it back and own it and run with it,

252
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: and that's how it became such a thing. I'm giving

253
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: him honorable mention here on the show today. But I

254
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: do pose the question, based on the reinvention the new

255
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: look of Matt Eberflus, does the beard make the man

256
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: or is this false advertising? Like that's not mad Eberflus

257
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 1: now he's Maddy e or Matthew.

258
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 2: But I'm telling you you got to watch the show

259
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 2: because you know, Rich, I think you hit the nail

260
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 2: on the head. This gives the team a different sort

261
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 2: of vibe. You don't have that tired, fifty four year

262
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 2: old looking. Even the coach got even the coach got

263
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 2: to glow up. I mean the team, they have their

264
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 2: their wide receiving corps, their quarterback, and their coach all

265
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 2: got a glow up in the offseason. So, hey, Bears

266
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 2: fans should be excited for mostly what's going on in

267
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 2: the field, But now that your coach has more confidence,

268
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 2: you can't argue that.

269
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 1: Right, Hey, spine, you ever shaved the beard to know?

270
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: I wanted to, right, it completes the look. You know what,

271
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: it goes fully gray if it full like, because they're

272
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: starting to get a little shit they think all the

273
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 1: Santa Claus k No, I don't know. Well there you go. Hey,

274
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: something else we wanted to get to on.

275
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 2: Over promident Drake. You know, we were just talking about Drake.

276
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 2: He's in the news this week. At first, I wasn't

277
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 2: sure if it was true.

278
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: Is this true? But he confirmed his romance with Tennis

279
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 1: quote greatest woman of all time quote Tennis quote Serena Williams.

280
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: They had a thing going on in twenty fifteen.

281
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 2: It's official, and that means the song Too Good was

282
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 2: indeed about Serena Williams.

283
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 1: Off the air earlier before we started recording the pod,

284
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 1: and Covino goes, he is he still banging? Or I'm like, no,

285
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 1: like this married? You write a song like that about

286
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: somebody you never know? Maybe he still trying to slip

287
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: in there is what you're saying.

288
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,479
Speaker 2: But I've always thought there's so many men out there

289
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 2: professing their love, writing these beautiful women songs for women,

290
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 2: not enough women writing like love songs about men like

291
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 2: the only one I can think.

292
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: Of is like Bell, I love you so I always will.

293
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 2: Bill must have been crowing the do Bill. How many

294
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 2: songs do you know where the woman's shouting out the dude.

295
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 1: Not many, not many. It's usually they hate full songs.

296
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 2: So anyway, the song too Good is about Serena Williams confirmed,

297
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 2: and it got us thinking here on over promised, well,

298
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 2: if he's shouting out tennis legend, what are some other

299
00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 2: old school sports shout outs and music so songs with

300
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 2: great old school sports references?

301
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 1: Well, I think comes to mind, she can starred me.

302
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know when this song came out,

303
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 1: probably when I was not even born yet or a

304
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: little baby.

305
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,880

310
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: favorite sport. I like the way they dribbled up and

311
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: down the court, just like I'm the King of the microphone.

312
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 1: So it was Doctor J and Moses Malone. Those were

313
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: great shoutouts. I think could it be they were the

314
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: first athletes to get shouted out to this song? It

315
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: has to be. When you bring up songs with great

316
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: old school sports references, it's the first one that comes

317
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: to mind. I guess every hip hop song now will

318
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: throw in a one lyric about a current NBA or

319
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: NFL player. It's commonplace now, but back then, I'm I'd

320
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 1: argue that who forgot? Who else would have that in

321
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: rappers Delight? Maybe everyone over a friend's house to eat nothing.

322
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 1: This is number one.

323
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 2: I'm just hoping that you hear some Curtis Blow over

324
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 2: the Olympics this weekend when they do some break dancing.

325
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 1: Now, that would be cool, being uh, I can't wait

326
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: for break dancing. You're a big Yankees fan. I know

327
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: you wanted to throw this in here just because you

328
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: love the Scooter.

329
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 2: I'm listen there because anytime this song comes out in

330
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 2: the bar, everyone loves to sing along and they love me.

331
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, everybody loves meat Loaf. Oh, I

332
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: love this song Paradise by the dashboard Light. I don't

333
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: really love this song. I don't necessarily now. I don't

334
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: hate meat Loaf by any means. I think he was

335
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 1: a great actor and performer. He's completely underrated. Dude sold

336
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: like one hundred million albums looking up love. But the

337
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: part I like about this song I love him club

338
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: as he yan His name was Robert Paulson. What I

339
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 1: love about the song is and it's not everybody knows us.

340
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: That's Phil rizzutto the Scooter calling the home run call.

341
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: Not everybody knows that you're in New York kid. I

342
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: brought it up at Fox Sports. People are like, who,

343
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: that's a shit's part of the scooter. That's like the breakdown.

344
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 1: Everyone in a wedding. Everyone at a wedding can't dance

345
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: during Phil Rizzuto spoken like a goofy Mets fan with

346
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 1: a Grimer shirt on. As a Yankees fan, I always

347
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: thought that was awesome. I grew up watching Phil Rizzuto

348
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 1: call the game, and he's in the song a song

349
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: that everybody knows his home run call. Hey, he's running

350
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 1: on a basis. His baseball call is in there. Holy cow.

351
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: So not everybody knows that, but now you do old

352
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 1: school sports reference. Let me hit you up with a

353
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 1: Rando one. And by the way, if there's a kiddie

354
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 1: watching Phil Risuto, the Scooter played second base for the Yankees.

355
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 1: He won an MVP and became a longtime broadcaster for

356
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 1: the Yankees. Yeah hearing this, pinstripes, I got another one. Now.

357
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 1: She has a new album coming out next month. You

358
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 1: probably haven't heard of her in a long time. Unstoppable,

359
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: but she was hot in the two thousands, Nelly Fortado

360
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 1: hot in the two thousands. Have you seen them cakes?

361
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,120
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty four, she you know, she was gonna

362
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: put all auto tune on a new album. She's a

363
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 1: teenager who's like, mom, that's lame, So she has a mom.

364
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: Now she heard us.

365
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,479
Speaker 2: Blow is writing a song as we speak, called these

366
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 2: All the Cakes.

367
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: Nellie Fortato. She shouted out Steve Nash. She says, is

368
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 1: your game MVP, just like Steve Nash, something like that

369
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 1: spot do you can you sing it for us? Is

370
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: your game MVP like Steve Nash. I always thought that

371
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: stood out too. I'm like with Steve Nash getting a

372
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:33,159
Speaker 1: shatow from Nellie Fortato in Timberland. She was very seductive

373
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:37,239
Speaker 1: and sultry. Another one that you gotta remember. I for

374
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 1: some reason you think this is my favorite one because

375
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 1: it might be you, you more than outcasts, because every

376
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 1: time I hear this athlete's name, I want to sing it.

377
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,919
Speaker 1: Ket should be running like rand By Moss in the

378
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: world World. I haven't heard that. We don't. You don't

379
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 1: don't play that song much? What Ket should be running

380
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 1: like brand By? And you know it does make you think,

381
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: Like you said, it is commonplace to hear a lot

382
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 1: of shout outs and references to athletes and rap songs today.

383
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 1: But you think Randy Moss felt cool or Steve nashviellet

384
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 1: cool about that back then? I would imagine. So, I

385
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 1: mean who doesn't, right? I mean everyone would be honored.

386
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: In fact, people would say, even when Eminem makes fun

387
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 1: of them it's an honor.

388
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 2: Eminem throws a lot of the same names down, like

389
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 2: Christopher Reeve. He loves talking about that Superman out of

390
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 2: this I'm cat throw one more and jay Z and Beyonce.

391
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. I always thought this was interesting because I guarantee

392
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: this guy never thought he would ever get shouted out.

393
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,199
Speaker 1: And I think he got shouted out just because his

394
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: name rhyme would snare like snare drum. I think there's

395
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: some people who don't follow sports have no idea who

396
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,880
Speaker 1: they only know the name from the song. Okay, well,

397
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: jay Z and Beyonce they had a song Deja Vu,

398
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: and the first lyric of the song. The song starts

399
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: out with I used to write based like wamp Pierre

400
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: and then it ends with now I run bass, high

401
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,360
Speaker 1: hat and snare, And I'm like, did you just shout out?

402
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: I was probably at the gym one day, headphones on

403
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 1: sy jay Z's rip around me what Wampierre know for

404
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 1: stealing bases? Man fast as hell? He had the quickness,

405
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 1: he had some speed, But to me, such a cool honor. Again,

406
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,439
Speaker 1: hear it all the time nowadays, but those are songs

407
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: with great old school sports references or shout outs. Random

408
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,720
