10
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: Later on in the show, guess who's coming on the show.

11
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: My personal friend Will Fetters, Our friends Bill Fetters Awards

12
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 1: for writing A Star is Born Best Adapted Screenplay. If

13
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,479
Speaker 1: he got nominated, I riot he got nominated. Bradley Cooper

14
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 1: did not for Best Director yet do you think that's

15
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 1: causing tension between them? No? Absolutely not. No. Will did

16
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 1: his job well. Will wrote a beautiful screenplay. So you're

17
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: saying Cooper did not do his job. No, he absolutely

18
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: did it. So the Academy's faulter a bunch of clowns.

19
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 1: I want to know who's on this nameless faceless Academy.

20
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: I want accountability. That's what I want, Okay, Because if

21
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: you watched that film as I did again on Sunday night,

22
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 1: and you weren't moved by what Bradley Cooper did in

23
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 1: an acting capacity and a directorial capacity in his debut,

24
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: I might add, um, then you're just an ass and

25
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 1: apparently the Academy is a bunch of ass clowns. Well,

26
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: we're going to get into all that with Will Fetters.

27
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: Uh as is the new format of the show. Um,

28
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: We're going to talk about some bets largely centered around

29
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: the All Star Game, and then you and I are

30
00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: going to decide if we're going in together or if

31
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: we're beating each other. Remember the last time we met

32
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 1: each other. I think I lost. Yeah, I took two

33
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 1: and fifty dollars. It was not enjoyable for me. It

34
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: got really tense, Like this was the Super Bowl and

35
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: we had that live stream going and you and I

36
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: watched the first half together and then you kind of

37
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 1: got drunker as the game went on, and and you

38
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: like kept slapping me in the back and then like

39
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: rubbing my shoulders, and like I was have doing work,

40
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,679
Speaker 1: like trying to be a professional because we actually have

41
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: stuff watching the Super Bowl, biggest day of our of

42
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 1: our careers at the action Now, I was working too,

43
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: I was on the live stream. Someone had to be,

44
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: so was I. And then you just got you just

45
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: got too annoying. I could not I honestly couldn't do

46
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: with you. I got two annoying to you when I

47
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 1: not only beat you in our bet, but I covered

48
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 1: the Patriots minus nine and a half that I bet

49
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: right before kickoff. That really annoyed you, really, Like it

50
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: got to the point where I was watching the game.

51
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, everybody was watching the game. We have eight

52
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: screens in our office. Everybody was watching, like on one

53
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 1: side of the room. I was by myself on the

54
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 1: other side of the room, praying that Greg's airline would

55
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: make that last second field goal so that I wouldn't

56
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: cover the nine and a half. But I did. Yeah,

57
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: that totally totally irritated me. Yeah, well, too bad. It

58
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: was ugly. The whole thing was ugly. Um, so we're

59
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: gonna do that. That's going to be before Will Fetters

60
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: comes on. Um, how great was that? Roman read? By

Speaker 1: Be kind to your loved ones. All right, we'll get

69
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: to Roman in a little bit, but first, let's say

70
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: hello to the start of the show. Okay, Happy Valentine's Day. Boys.

71
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: I'm really rather fond of one of you. Oh that's amazing.

72
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: Do you know what's amazing how many people when we

73
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: did our live podcast I didn't think Georgina was real shocking,

74
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: including Jeff Schwartz. It was so nice to see everybody

75
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 1: at the live show a few weeks ago. And to

76
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: assure Jeff Schwartz I'm not a robot. He really thought

77
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 1: she was a robot. Glad to see in the new

78
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: year with the new podcast, with the new year of

79
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: the podcast, we are keeping a kind and I'm stepping

80
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 1: on all of Georgina's lines. That's just part for the course.

81
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 1: Oh is there more? I thought, do you want to

82
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: start the show or does Gina have maybe an iTunes

83
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 1: reviews Georgina, I didn't know if I was supposed to.

84
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,239
Speaker 1: I'm scared now should what happens? John's just gonna stop

85
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: talking now? iTunes review user clean the Barrel subject. I

86
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: literally dream about this. I literally dreamt about the podcast

87
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: and the whole cost to characters being at my grandparents

88
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: beach house. I was drinking and betting high school volleyball

89
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: with Laduka five star g A M b I l

90
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: I n G gamble. It's called g A M B

91
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: I l I n G. He he absolutely would be

92
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 1: betting on high school volleyball at your grandmother. Oh my god,

93
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 1: whoever wrote that? That's that's a great one. That is

94
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: a great review, And I'm so glad we've infiltrated the

95
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: dreams of our listeners. That's frightening. But I mean, Paul

96
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: would absolutely be doing that, no doubt about it. There's

97
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,719
Speaker 1: he'd be betting high school volleyball. He's probably out in

98
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: California right now on Muscle Beach, just bet setting lines

99
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: on volleyball games on the beach. He's like walking up

100
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: to guys like on the squat rat. If we started

101
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: if we started putting high school volleyball in the Free

102
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: Action Network app uh, Leduca would be just pounding it

103
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: like I'd be getting alerts from Luduca says he's all

104
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 1: over it. It's called B A M B I L

105
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: I N G. Just oh, I need that to be

106
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: like my ring tone when he calls too much, too much?

107
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 1: Al Right, So should we talk about the All Star weekend?

108
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: The All Star weekend, big, big weekend. I'm excited about it.

109
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 1: It's All Star weekend and something called the n b A. So,

110
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: who wins the All Star Game? Team Jannis or Team Lebron.

111
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,720
Speaker 1: What do you think, black Jack? It's Team Lebron. He's

112
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: stacked that team, I mean Lebron, Kevin Durant, Anthony Davis,

113
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,479
Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving. The team is loaded, man, and there's no

114
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 1: way they're losing that game. There. I think a three

115
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite. Alright, So, um, what's interesting

116
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: about this is, Look, the NBA just stole the show

117
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: from the NFL during Super Bowl week and then in

118
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: the following week with the draft, like they just know

119
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: how to do it. Keen analysis into who's gonna win

120
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: the game? There? Yeah, Well, I was just thinking about

121
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: how the fact that like listen, can I finish? I

122
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: don't know, can you have? You're taken your Roman boom.

123
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: Roman is gonna love this podcast. Soon. They're going to

124
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,679
Speaker 1: be the title sponsor for this. We should get Roman

125
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 1: to be the title I will tell you, I will

126
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: tell you. We get these like requests earlier in the year,

127
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: will you or won't you sort of approve or like

128
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 1: this kind of read on your podcast? And we got Roman,

129
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: like in September they sent us something. I was so

130
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: happy and we both were like yes, a thousand times yes,

131
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: and like, I don't know why it took unto February

132
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: to get Roman on the podcast. We've never been more

133
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: excited about never company sponsoring us ever. I've been prepped

134
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: for this for months. The only other one we're waiting

135
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: on is the legalized marijuana. No, this is better, this

136
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: is better. Come on, listen. Marijuana is all right, but

137
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 1: we're talking hard dicks here, so true. Alright, So who's

138
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 1: gonna win the All Star Game? It's gonna be Team Lebron.

139
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: You and I are on the exact exact same page

140
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: for that. We can't even debate it. Do do you

141
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: have any analysis for us? I haven't been paying much

142
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 1: attention because I've been busy at my house, all right,

143
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: So so we both have Team Lebron. Like I said that,

144
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 1: the roster that he picked is just loaded, and he

145
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 1: picked a lot of guys who were in their walk

146
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: here into free agency. This is a big stage. I

147
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: think guys are gonna want to put on a show,

148
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: really form well kind of head into free agency that way.

149
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 1: Some guys that maybe may not go into the playoffs

150
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis um or may not go that far in it. Whatever,

151
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: there is no way anybody is thinking about anything for

152
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: the future in this All Star Game. There's just not

153
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: Why not because they're not. It's like you go into

154
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: the All Star Game. You want to be with your buddies.

155
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 1: You're gonna lay down some connections for the following year,

156
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: but you're not going to go into it thinking I'm

157
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: going to play hard to prove. Do you think that

158
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook looks out it that way, because I don't.

159
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: Granted he's on Team You honest, but um, that dude

160
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 1: I think takes everything serious. Russell Westbrook is thinking he's

161
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: my favorite basketball player. I love him. He is amazing.

162
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 1: He is ten straight triple Devils it's astonishing. I actually

163
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 1: I just feel like, how does his body not breaking down?

164
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 1: I'd like to see the guy brush his teeth, Like,

165
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 1: how hard does he go brushing his teeth? That dude

166
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: makes his gums bleed. Like everything is intense when he

167
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,719
Speaker 1: when those clips come out about him playing with his kid,

168
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: like you see those clips on YouTube, I feel like

169
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 1: he's just gonna like he's gonna block every He's gonna

170
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 1: start trash talking his kid. Yeah, that guy plays hard.

171
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: He doesn't need Roman. Now. I was going to go

172
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: there with Roman, but everybody could use Roman, no matter

173
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: who you are. All Right, we'll get to the Roman ad.

174
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: What do we have next? Georgina who wins MVP? This

175
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,439
Speaker 1: is interesting to me because Jeff Schwartz on I'll take

176
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: that bet this morning had a really interesting take, and

177
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: he's kind of swayed me a little bit. I wanted

178
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: no part of Lebron on this bet because it's the

179
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: All Star game. He's coming off an injury, like Lebron

180
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 1: seems like a guy who might just coast here. But

181
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 1: Jeff Schwartz makes an excellent point. This game is in Charlotte.

182
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan will be at this game. It's his arena,

183
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 1: it's his home team, and Lebron would like nothing more

184
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 1: than to just go out and put on an unreal

185
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: show in front of Michael Jordan's sitting courtside. He dominates

186
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: the Hornets in Charlotte, and Jeff pointed out that when

187
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 1: Lebron plays in Charlotte, Michael Jordan doesn't sit courtside for

188
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 1: those games because he knows it will motivate Lebron, so

189
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 1: he doesn't sit on the floor. Great insight from our

190
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,839
Speaker 1: newest NBA analyst, Jeff Schwartz. Really interesting theory, and Jeff

191
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 1: Schwartz certainly a very bright guy. But there's only one

192
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,959
Speaker 1: answer here. What's the answer, Dwyane Wade? Are you into

193
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 1: your fucking mind? Dwayne Wade out there on crutches? Do

194
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: you remember Dwyane Wade is beloved by everybody in this game.

195
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 1: Every single player in this game loves Dwayne Wade. And

196
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 1: you might recall Magic Johnson the year he played in

197
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: the All Star Game after he announced he had HIV.

198
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: Totally different. They gave him the rock, they made it,

199
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 1: they made it a layup for him to win. You're

200
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: comparing apples and Roman pills. There's nothing Magic Johnson had

201
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: aids Man. They thought he was gonna die. It was

202
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 1: like a send off, like this is a this is

203
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: a send off. No, that was a send off to

204
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: the great beyond, not retirement. But for a lot of

205
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: these guys, like there is no life after the NBA. No, no,

206
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: it's not Dwayne Wade. There's value on James Harden at

207
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: plus fourteen hundred, This value I think on Kemba Walker

208
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: at plus eight hundred. Kemba is one of those guys

209
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: who I think a lot of people look at as

210
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 1: like a fringe All Star and maybe wants to prove

211
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: he belongs also his home floor, and we've seen him

212
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: go off for sixties some nights. I mean, gets not

213
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: a fringe All Star. I agree with you, but I

214
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: think some people look at him that that way. Okay,

215
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: anybody forgot how in touch with the NBA. Anybody who

216
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: watches basketball knows that he is not a fridge All Star.

217
00:12:51,360 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: What's the last basketball game you watched start to finish? Uh?

218
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: Probably watched one sometime this week? All right? I think

219
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: the Spurs played who did the Spurs play? There? In

220
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 1: to night? I had him at minus four and a half.

221
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 1: The Griz they won one. Yeah, I had that too, Yeah,

222
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 1: but I did not. We didn't cover, didn't cover. Um,

223
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: So I'm going which way? Wade? Okay, well you're an idiot.

224
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna go with with shorts here and say

225
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 1: Lebron goes nuts in front of Michael Jordan. There's gonna

226
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: be some taunting. Hey, Michael Jordan may go out on

227
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 1: the floor at some point. Let's take listen. I gave

228
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: you two value plays to Kemba Walker and James Harden

229
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: James Harden plus and uh, the guys scoring like points

230
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 1: a night. I'm just gonna take the truck. Are you done?

231
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 1: Take a stand? I just did do something fun. It's

232
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: the All Star Game. Give yourself a reason? Rout? God?

233
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: What's next? Who wins the dunk contest? I had Dennis

234
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: Smith Jr. Is the favorite end. I'm sure you've got

235
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: great analysis on this one. I am going with Dennis

236
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: Smith Jr. And this one. Actually, did you watch last

237
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 1: year's done contest? You know? Okay, do you know who

238
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: was in it? Dennis Smith Jr. Yeah? Did you see

239
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 1: his performance? Tell me he tried a lot of creative dunks,

240
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: but he couldn't execute them. He kept missing over and

241
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: over over. You tried once and failed, so he can't

242
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: do it again. I don't think he's going to be

243
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: the guy to get this done. It's a field of four.

244
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to be the guy to

245
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: get this done. Now, Collins, let's let's talk about the

246
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: people in there, all right, Collins, big man, they rarely win. Okay?

247
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: Uh Dwight Howard ever hear of him? Great? So the

248
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 1: exception that proves a rule. You can go that way

249
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 1: if you like. Who else? Tell me? Tell me something

250
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 1: about Hammad Diallo not even playing in the league soon,

251
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: the Chili who gave you that note? Nobody? I know

252
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: you've got that note from the chuckler. So who's your

253
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: pick here? Dennis Smith Jr. I'm gonna go with John Collins?

254
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: Where John Collins go to college? John Collins? Yeah, where

255
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: do you go to college? Did you go to college

256
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: where you don't know? Wake Wake Forest? Interesting? Yeah, that's

257
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: my pick John Collins, even though he's a big man.

258
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: Where did Dennis Smith Jr? Go to college? And? See

259
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: where did I go to college? Indiana? Because you couldn't

260
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 1: get into Northwestern. I didn't even try to get in

261
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 1: Northwestern because you knew you wouldn't know. The application was

262
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: just too well, Okay, you're not Northwestern material. That's for

263
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: the Greenbergs and Revels of the world. Don't be jealous.

264
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: Are we betting on the yet? It all right? I'll bet.

265
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: Would I take Dennis Smith Junior? Yeah, I'll bet for

266
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 1: fifty bucks? Fifty bucks, you got it. I'll take John Collins.

267
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: Here we go. We're down. Don't forget in about five minutes.

268
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: We got Will Fetters coming up. He was nominated for

269
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: an Academy Award, which is more than I can say

270
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: for Blackjack, who like drives to Gloman every single guest

271
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: we've ever had, and turned himself into something that he isn't.

272
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: It's called it's called opportunism, which it's called success. Like

273
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 1: all those books you wrote that no one read four

274
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: best sellers. At our live show, I was asked to

275
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: autograph your book. Think about that. I'm not thinking about

276
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: it ever should It's like a bad It's like the

277
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:42,920
Speaker 1: anti Roman pill. Thinking about you signed my book. Mhm. Next,

278
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: who wins the three point contest? To be honest? I

279
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 1: like Steph Curry, mm hmm. You got nothing here? Do

280
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: you too many names? Hold on, let me look up

281
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 1: the odds here. You're gonna take Larry Bird. See is

282
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: he doing it? Evin Booker plus five? Steph is uh

283
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: plus two twenty? How do you not go with Seth Curry?

284
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 1: That's where I'm going. Yeah, I like that. This is plus.

285
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: Let me hear your have a theory on this. This

286
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 1: is the only time in Seth Curry's life that he

287
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,680
Speaker 1: has a chance to one up his older brother. He's

288
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: never going to do it. Really as a basketball player.

289
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 1: Steph Curry is gonna have fame for as long as

290
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 1: he wants it. He's got this picture perfect family. This

291
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 1: is Seth Curry's moment to trump his older brother in

292
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 1: the three point contest. The thing that Steph does best

293
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 1: and he's most known for. His younger brother comes out

294
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: with that inferiority complex. You've got sons, you know how

295
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: it is. He's gonna come out and he's gonna put

296
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 1: the beat down on Steph in the three point contest

297
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: at a very nice price, Steph Curry. Uh. Forbes just

298
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 1: came out with the highest paid NBA players, um obviously

299
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,400
Speaker 1: Steph Lebron number one. Steph Curry, Hold on, I'm looking

300
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: for it right here. It's just taking me a second.

301
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 1: Lebron made eight point seven million dollars last year, including salary,

302
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: bonuses and endorsements. Steph Curry eighty million dollars. Yeah, this

303
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: is Curry made eighty million dollars last year. This is

304
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: from I'm reading this from Kendall Baker on Axios. He

305
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: does his great news sports newsletter and so I got

306
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: this in so free ads. Kendell's good guy. If Axios

307
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: wants the publicity, they can give us an ad like Roman.

308
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 1: Can anyone give us an ad like Roman? Can anyone

309
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,640
Speaker 1: do anything for us like Roman can do for us?

310
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: Why have we gotten free Roman samples? Chad needs his

311
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 1: boner pills. Kevin Durant, guy's got a popsicle stick tied

312
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 1: to the thing. Kevin Durant was sixty five million. It's

313
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: interesting list. Okay, So the three point contest three point contest,

314
00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 1: I'm changing my my Joe Harris on the Action Network, Harris,

315
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 1: Joe Harris. Rob Perez Worldwide Wide did a great video

316
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: in his story, and then Matt Moore did a story

317
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 1: about Joe Harris. I think he might be the best

318
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: three point shooter in the league, and he is entirely undervalued.

319
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 1: I feel like we had to beg the NBA to

320
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:19,159
Speaker 1: get Joe Harris into the three point Contest, and we

321
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: did it because we showed him making three pointers literally

322
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,159
Speaker 1: with his eyes closed. So what he can hit trick shots?

323
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:32,479
Speaker 1: Big deal, Joe Harris plus six to Okay, I'll give

324
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 1: you twenty five. I not as much money as you do,

325
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,959
Speaker 1: big big time here, alright, fine, I'll take Seth. All right,

326
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: what's next, Georgie. So there's a thing called the Skills Contest.

327
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 1: Apparently you can bet on it. Who's going to win

328
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 1: that black jack? Luka don Chetch. This contest is tailor

329
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 1: made for Luka don Chech. He's fast, he's got great handles,

330
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,640
Speaker 1: he can pass the ball very accurately, and he's good

331
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 1: enough shooter to win it. There's a lot of really

332
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: talented guys in this, but I think you need to

333
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 1: have the ability to do this stuff almost all of

334
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 1: it on the first try. We see a lot of

335
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: guys get hung up when they're trying to pass the

336
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,919
Speaker 1: ball into the uh into the net there. If you

337
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: miss that a few times, your time is just not

338
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: going to be good enough to win it, don ch

339
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: I think has the best vision and passing of anyone

340
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 1: in this He's quick. I like done here. He's the

341
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 1: second choice beyond the Aaron Fox. This is a really

342
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 1: tough one because Nicola Yoki might go to the Hall

343
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: of Fame. He's that good. I think we're a little

344
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: early on that train, but he's very good. And I

345
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 1: think he's going to come out there and he's going

346
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:44,399
Speaker 1: to be like, I'm the only itch that needs to

347
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: be scratched in this skills contest the fund? Does that mean?

348
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 1: Did I say his name rights chuckles writing your jokes

349
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 1: now too? No, I just made it up literally as

350
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 1: I was saying that. No, he would have been better

351
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: than that. Have you seen what this guy does in

352
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 1: the atlet Yes, Chad, Yes, I watched the NBA. Yes,

353
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 1: he's like our Vitas Sabonis. Oh my god, I could

354
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: have gone with like Kevin Love in Minnesota. He's like

355
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 1: Kevin Love in Minnesota. Yeah, fact Kevin Love back in

356
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 1: the day, like fat Kevin Love never got hurt and

357
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 1: skinny Kevin Love is always getting hurt. Yeah that happens,

358
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: That happens to some guys. Kevin Love should have stayed

359
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:31,199
Speaker 1: fat the padding. Maybe you know what I think. I

360
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 1: think fat is like tougher than muscle. Muscle is a

361
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 1: little bit more fragile. So yeah, he should have stayed fatty.

362
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: He's a better player, all right, another twenty five. I'm

363
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:45,919
Speaker 1: taking Yokich, you're taking Dutch. M hm, alright, done what

364
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 1: else we got? Wasn't that? Everything is everything? Right? Those

365
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: we're all the ones. We're gonna do um to run

366
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,359
Speaker 1: it down. We are both on Team Lebron at minus

367
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: three and a half four um. The three point Contest,

368
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: I am on who was I on again, Joe Harris

369
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 1: a plus six seventy four. You're on Seth Curry at

370
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: plus four sixty six. So we have a twenty five

371
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 1: dollar bet on that one. On the Skills Challenge, you

372
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: are on Luca. I am on Nicola he lukea is

373

Speaker 1: a plus four hundred, Nikols a plus five hundred. We

374
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: have a twenty five dollar bet on that one. The

375
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: Dunk Contest, I am on Dennis Smith, you were on

376
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: John Collins. We are at fifty dollars on that one,

377
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 1: and that was everything. Dennis Smith is a nick He's

378
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 1: going to tank the dunk contest too. Bonus question, which

379
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 1: movie wins Best Picture of the Oscars that has nothing

380
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: to do with sports? Uh, black Panther, you're right in

381
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 1: your mind? Are you looking serious right now? Plus three D?

382
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:50,719
Speaker 1: Please tell me you're not being serious. Do you think

383
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:54,879
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Roma, a comic book movie. It's going

384
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 1: to be Roma. You know. Here's my only hesitation with that.

385
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: Roma is winning a lot of awards. To watch Rama, Okay,

386
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: I did. It's it's a really really good movie. It's

387
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: it's it's very good. I would. I think there's some

388
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: hesitation for the Academy to give an Oscar for Best

389
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: Picture to a Netflix movie. I think there's a little

390
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 1: concern there, like Netflix is the giant death star that

391
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: Hollywood is staring down, and it feels like to give

392
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,919
Speaker 1: them Best Picture at the Oscars on their first crack

393
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 1: at it, it's like, what the hell is everyone else doing?

394
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 1: Everyone else is fighting for second place. I think there's

395
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 1: gonna be a little bit of pushback to that. Alfonso

396
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: Corone for Director, He's gonna win that, but I don't know,

397
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: man Best Picture feels it feels like there's a little

398
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: pushback from from the Hollywood elites on that one. Alright, well,

399
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,120
Speaker 1: let's go with Black Panther. No, it's A Star is Born,

400
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 1: you idiot. Plus four hundred. Now, I bet this at

401
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: like three to one. It's at plus fourteen hundred. Now,

402
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 1: m listen, chat, go down the list of the movies.

403
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: All Right, Black Panthers a comic book movie. I don't

404
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: want to hear it. All Right, it's good for a

405
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 1: comic book movie, but that's what it was. Black Klansman

406
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 1: entertaining really good story. Um, but I don't think it

407
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:14,120
Speaker 1: compares to Green Book or A Star is Born. Bohemian

408
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,359
Speaker 1: Rhapsody sucked. All right. I Rammy Malick was good as

409
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: Freddie Mercury, but the movie sucked. Okay, it was not good.

410
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: I enjoyed the favorite. I thought it was. It had

411
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 1: its its lighter moments, which it was a good movie.

412
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,640
Speaker 1: But again, I don't think it's up there with Green

413
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 1: Book or A Star is Born. Vice is not gonna win.

414
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 1: They're not getting best picture of a movie about Dick Cheney. Um,

415
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: green Book was really really good. The concern I have

416
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 1: there is there's a little bit of controversy with the

417
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 1: family saying that the movie is not entirely accurate, and

418
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: if you would have had both families in on this movie.

419
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 1: Then I think it's a runaway winner. But I don't

420
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,399
Speaker 1: know how much controversy they really want to get into. Listen,

421
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,239
Speaker 1: A Star is Born as a classic timeless film by

422
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 1: a genius man, Will Fetters, personal friend of mine. It

423
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: should win, It should win. I don't know if it

424
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 1: will because these awards shows seem to be snubbing it

425
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 1: for some unknown reason, which is sickening. But at plus

426
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: four it's worth a bet. You know what we should do.

427
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,959
Speaker 1: We should call Will Fetters and we're going to get

428
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: him on the phone. We're gonna ask about all these things.

429
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 1: You need his number. I got his number. I just

430
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: gave it to Chuckles and um. But first, I bet

431
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: we're going to do a Roman ad And I think

432
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 1: that's the perfect meading to get us ready and excited.

433
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: I Will Fetters and alright, Blackjack, As I said, we're

434
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,120
Speaker 1: gonna have Will Fetters on next and that is exciting,

435
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 1: also exciting. Do you know the guys are terrible taking

436
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 1: care of their health, whether it's a knee injury, bad back,

437
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 1: or something worth guys are usually more comfortable rubbing some

438
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,919
Speaker 1: dirt on it than seeing a doctor. I'm guilty of

439
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 1: it myself. Remember black Jack, We've talked about the time

440
00:25:55,560 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: I broke my back and still still wrote the story

441
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: for ESPN the magazine, because that's what I do. The

442
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: same is true for a rectile dysfunction. This is from Roman.

443
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,880
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I love Roman studies show of guys

444
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,880
Speaker 1: who experience e D don't get treated for it. Thankfully,

445
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,640
Speaker 1: Roman created an easy way to get checked out by

446
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,679
Speaker 1: a doctor and get treated for e D online. You know,

447
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,199
Speaker 1: someone tweeted at us the other day that they loved

448
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: this read so much they started laughing on this and

449
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: they had that they had to pull over. And I

450
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: tweeted and get I tweeted and tad get Roman and

451
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 1: get Roman liked it and retweeted it Blackjack. Roman is

452
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 1: a one stop shop where licensed US physicians can diagnose

453
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,679
Speaker 1: e D and ship medication right to your door. With Roman,

454
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: there are no waiting rooms, awkward face to face conversations,

Speaker 1: with us in the middle of all the Academy Award hoopla,

474
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 1: having just dropped his kids off at school on a

475
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,400
Speaker 1: rainy day in l A. That's because he's not only

476
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 1: a talented writer but also a devoted father. He doesn't listen.

477
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 1: You know the thing I like about Will Fetters he

478
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: doesn't let it go to his head, like he could

479
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:23,159
Speaker 1: have his kids. Helicopters at the guy's an Academy Award nominee,

480
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 1: friends with the most electrifying voice in sports media me,

481
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 1: and he's still as humble as the day we found

482
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 1: him a few months ago, as humble as the day

483
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 1: he anonymously sent an email to the Action will work serious,

484
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: serious question, will um? Since you met us, specifically me,

485
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 1: you have been nominated for your first Academy award. Um,

486
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: how much of that credit goes to me? How don't know?

487
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 1: How do you end up in the NFL season? Really

488
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 1: it's a question of, like I feel like maybe I

489
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 1: depends like did you did to take the rams of

490
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 1: the Patriots in the Super Bowl? What do you think

491
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 1: I did? Will? I know you took the Patriots? I

492
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 1: listened to the listen to the podcast. How did your

493
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: props do? By the way, I will get back to

494
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 1: the Academy awarding a second, I almost bet them all,

495
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 1: but then I have three kids and I didn't. I

496
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: will say that. I will say that the props that

497
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 1: the Action Network told everybody to take, we're brilliant. They

498
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 1: nailed it. Um. The props that I personally took didn't

499
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: do so well and and for some reason I didn't

500
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: follow like every single piece of advice on the Action Network.

501
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 1: The only thing you should do for props do whatever.

502
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: Sean Corner from the Action Network says, like the guy

503
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: is Sean Corner, Koe are any are the guy's gold.

504
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: He was like lit up for props during the Super Bowl,

505
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:53,959
Speaker 1: and like I just couldn't take all of them. And

506
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 1: I think I took like three of them and I

507
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 1: won two of them, and then like I took six

508
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: others that he didn't recommend that I just sort of

509
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 1: thought were smart and I didn't win. Yeah, it was.

510
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 1: It was that kind of day for the for the

511
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: for the contrarian gambler. It really really was. It really

512
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 1: was a super Bowl made for you two guys. I

513
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 1: mean it would have given given the theme of this podcast,

514
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: wise guy versus versus the guy who says, maybe we

515
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 1: should just been on Tom Brady a lot usually, maybe

516
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 1: we've been on the best player in football forever. That

517
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 1: might be a good idea. You know what they do.

518
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 1: You want to minimize how dum you feel? That's my

519
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 1: thing with Tom Bradys. You just want to minimize do

520
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: dum you feel And that was my rule I applied

521
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: this year for the contest. It was like, if we're

522
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 1: chasing seventeen points on the road in Kansas City, maybe

523
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 1: instead we just take Tom Brady that sometimes we didn't

524
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: like a couple of times, I feel like you guys

525
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: are getting up on me. No, not at all, Jad,

526
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: I mean that must have been brutal Field. Did did you?

527
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 1: I mean we want to get into but did you

528
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: take the Patriots like and or did you take the Amazbory?

529
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 1: Were you? It really was like it was like your Alamo.

530
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 1: I mean the line came out of this makes no

531
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: sense at all, like every dummy in the world, no

532
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: offense black Jack, Like all the dummies and Blackjack are

533
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: gonna be on the Patriot and you couldn't do it

534
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: like you said, will uh. The Alamo was a great

535
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: way to describe it's very literary view cinematic because I

536
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 1: was on the RAMS and I was on the Rams

537
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: at plus two, I was on the Rams on the

538
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: money Line, I was on um every Rams. I was

539
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 1: on Todd Gurley over a hundred and twenty three and

540
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: a half over a hundred rushing yards and receiving yards combined.

541
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,479
Speaker 1: I think I was on like, um, Marcus Peters and

542
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 1: I keep to leave uh and Robert Woods to win

543
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: the m v P. Like Marcus Peters, you name it,

544
00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 1: if you name a rams bet, I was on it.

545
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 1: It was as Blackshack and I were just talking about

546
00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 1: earlier in the podcast, which you'll hear um on that Sunday,

547
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 1: we were all watching it together and we did this

548
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 1: live stream from the Action Network, and Blackjack and I

549
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: were sitting watching the game and the live stream together

550
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 1: in the beginning, and at halftime, I had to walk

551
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 1: away just because he was so drunk and annoying, and

552
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 1: I needed to watch the game like by myself to

553
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 1: try to will a win, because you knew if the

554
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: Patriots got a touchdown lead the game was over. It

555
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: might as well. So it just let's talk about something

556
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:38,080
Speaker 1: that we all enjoy, which is let's go let's go

557
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 1: to a Star was born, Let's talk about the movie

559
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: an Academy Award. What does it mean? Like I feel

560
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 1: like who was Like, you know, Tracy Wilson, what does

561
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 1: this mean to you? You know, it's actually funny man,

562
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 1: I've been telling myself intellectually for the last few months.

563
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 1: You know that I just wanted it from my career,

564
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 1: you know, I was I would I would always talk

565
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 1: to people, and you know all I wanted to OSPAR

566
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: nomination because, as a friend of mine said the day

567
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 1: I got nominated, literally, if you do nothing else for

568
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: the rest of your life, now on your tombstone, they

569
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: can put Academy Award nominated. And I was like, I

570
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 1: hope this isn't the mountaintop, but okay, um right. At

571
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 1: the same time, I didn't really realize so that was

572
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: my intellectual and maybe that my defenses were up. But

573
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 1: then the morning of the announcements, we were sleep training

574
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: our baby with your kids are older, which you might

575
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 1: remember how horrible that it um. And so the baby

576
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 1: was was up through the night and the announcement at

577
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 1: five twenty um here, and so I had an alarm

578
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 1: set but I woke up like three times in the

579
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: night with the baby. I ended up waking up and

580
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 1: I woke up at like five three two, like I

581
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 1: jumped out of better late for school, ran in my

582
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: living room, but I have a one story like kind

583
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 1: of ran in my living room, and literally I turned

584
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 1: on the TV. The sound was off, and and on

585
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: the TV it just I didn't even know what channel

586
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 1: it was left on, but I must have been left

587
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: right on K D L A and and filling my

588
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 1: television said adapted screenplay. And then I swear to God,

589
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 1: I'm telling you this is and this is exactly how

590
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 1: it happened, giving me you the blow by blow. So

591
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 1: not only does it just say adapted screenplay with no sound,

592
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: there are three nominees up, and I have watched no

593
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,439
Speaker 1: other announcements, so I have absolutely no context for how

594
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: they're being announced. And the ones that were up there

595
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: were the Cohen Brothers movie Can You Ever Forgive Me?

596
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 1: And Black Klansman. Now, the Cohen's was like that was

597
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: that was uh terrifying because that came from nowhere and

598
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: there was none nobody's board. And and then Can You

599
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 1: Ever Forgive Me was kind of on the cusp, and

600
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 1: I had this moment and this is like it took

601
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 1: about probably ten seconds in real time to get through

602
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: the next two because the next one was Barry Jenkins

603
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 1: for If fuel Stree Could Talk, and I was just

604
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,400
Speaker 1: ready for the gut punch, like the interfill everything, the

605
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: last two years of the Philadelphia wa in the Super Bowl,

606
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 1: the inter Philadelphia schools fan of me, like Allen Iverson,

607
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: Allen Iverson getting getting stepping over to Ront Louis and

608
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: getting his ass kicks for four straight games, Like all

609
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 1: of it just came, all the Andy Reid moments. I

610
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 1: got like sick to my stepd For like three seconds,

611
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 1: I knew, I was like I was just looking on

612
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 1: the air comes and then and then it then it

613
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,239
Speaker 1: just didn't happen. It was like it I lived a

614
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: lifetime in that moment and what was really cool? Then

615
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: I literally did like a nerdy like Phil Mickelson, hopped

616
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 1: with my arms in the air. I'll never judge. I'll

617
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 1: never judge anybody for a bad celebration. Again, it was

618
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 1: the most unathletic, uninspired thing anyone's ever seen. Um and

619
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 1: thankfully no one saw it but me. But did But

620
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: did you get to get back to the question that

621
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 1: moment I realized In that moment, I realized how much

622
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: I wanted it in the five seconds I thought it

623
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,839
Speaker 1: wasn't gonna happen, and I wanted to because I used

624
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 1: to watch the Academy Awards every year with my my parents.

625
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,760
Speaker 1: You know, like I remember like rooting for Babe versus Braveheart,

626
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 1: which is hilarious now, but like all these things that

627
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: like just came roaring back. So I was like armygown

628
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 1: in the Young Wan Bruce willis Flat Life Flash. Oh

629
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,399
Speaker 1: my god, that is an incredible story. So a couple

630
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 1: of questions I have. I don't know what black jas Scott,

631
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 1: but a couple of questions I have. Number one, Um,

632
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: your wife was sleeping, so she was not awake with you, okay?

633
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: Number one? Number two, what do you do? So you

634
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 1: find out at five thirty three you're having this surreal

635
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:36,240
Speaker 1: moment you jump up and down like philm Nikison Nicholson

636
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,399
Speaker 1: as as a West Wing fan, I was thinking about, like,

637
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:43,240
Speaker 1: you know, Bradley Whitford, he always had those awkward moments,

638
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 1: like when he would do something semi athletic, Like that's

639
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: what I was envisioning, But like, what did you so?

640
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 1: Like then what happens? Do you go wake up your wife?

641
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 1: Like do you call Bradley Cooper? Like what do you

642
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: do next? You call your agent? A lot of text

643
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 1: messages that day, It was just text messages flying back

644
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: and forth. You know, I feel like, you know, it's

645
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: funny people. I used to think in people. My dad

646
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 1: even asked, like, when did they call you? Because you

647
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: always hear people talk about their Oscar nomination somebody called them,

648
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,240
Speaker 1: But that's usually, like I realized, it's just your aging

649
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,880
Speaker 1: or your manager calling people. Um. I texted my sister

650
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,960
Speaker 1: lives in Spain, and so we texted like right away.

651
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:22,759
Speaker 1: She was really sweet. She watched it like on a

652
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: bus in Spain, like on our way to work and

653
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,359
Speaker 1: just started crying. And I thought that was really sweet. Um,

654
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 1: and so I does text with people like the whole day.

655
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,319
Speaker 1: It was just I mean it was it was like

656
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: I want and truthfully that day but I did like

657
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:37,800
Speaker 1: everything else is gravy. It's been a lot of fun.

658
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 1: You know. We went to the baths last weekend. We've

659
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 1: been we're doing this thing for the first time. My

660
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 1: wife gets still dressed up, a little beautiful. It's it's

661
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,359
Speaker 1: a lot of fun. So I it was all text

662
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 1: messages that day and and um, I saw Bradley and

663
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 1: you know, everybody's excited that the Oscars luncheon. I'm doing

664
00:37:55,680 --> 00:38:02,800
Speaker 1: the thing, the awards season thing that is credible that's

665
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 1: pretty neat. So well, I've got to ask you, because

666
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 1: this is a gambling podcast, as you're aware, heading into

667
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 1: awards season A stars Born was favored in a lot

668
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: of categories, or it was among the top choices. And

669
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 1: now after we've seen the Golden Globes and you just

670
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 1: mentioned the BAFTAs over the weekend over in London, the

671
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 1: odds have have fallen quite a bit. So do you

672
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 1: think there's value on betting that right now? I don't know.

673
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:35,399
Speaker 1: I mean the gambler, he says absolutely. Because the other thing,

674
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,759
Speaker 1: I realized that the Oscar ballot and I don't get

675
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 1: doing the weeds here, but the Oscar ballot is different.

676
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 1: It's like a weighted ballot. So there's I think it

677
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 1: kind of Somebody explains it to me recently and I

678
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 1: was like, oh, ship, that explains how like crash happened.

679
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 1: You know, if you get if you get a perform

680
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: if you're getting put second place a lot, and like say,

681
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 1: I'm saying other movies getting a lot of first but

682
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 1: then gets a bunch of forts and fits. I feel

683
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 1: like the second place can win. So I don't know, man,

684
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 1: I think I think I'm I'm shock I mean, I

685
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 1: I sent, I sent this thing to Bradley. I had

686
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 1: to just to put it all on words, just to

687
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:14,600
Speaker 1: tell him, I am I'm appaulled that that that he's

688
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,800
Speaker 1: only given one speech. I mean, I'll hopefully there's no

689
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 1: Academy members listening to this, and I'm not blowing the

690
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 1: press tour, but uh, if there is one out there,

691
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:27,480
Speaker 1: mote stars one, um, there's there's It's just like you,

692
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:31,879
Speaker 1: don't you understand he risked everything for this, like he

693
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 1: would have you remember how fast when Tobey Maguire like

694
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: stopped being Spider Man, he just disappeared for the zeitgeist.

695
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:41,879
Speaker 1: Like Bradley Cooper literally did nothing but this movie four

696
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 1: years He's not exaggerating. I watched him. I started in

697
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 1: London with him four years ago. He bet everything on

698
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,320
Speaker 1: this movie. He learned to play the guitar. He wrote

699
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 1: black Eyes, the opening song in the movie. He produced it,

700
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 1: he directed it, he willed it into existence. He stayed

701
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,800
Speaker 1: in the edit room with Jay Cassy, who got robbed

702
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,320
Speaker 1: by not being nominated. And at the end of the

703
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 1: day it's like he's plus whatever five hundred to win

704
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:09,799
Speaker 1: actor and with everything across the board where he's not

705
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 1: favorite and and I'm sorry, like it doesn't think people

706
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 1: who love movies, like people who want more movies like

707
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 1: this to be made in this business, should be voting

708
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,439
Speaker 1: for him because nobody really, I think, understands the risk

709
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: he took. It's like kind of kind of very rich, handsome,

710
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:31,839
Speaker 1: successful person like really take a risk. Well, everything's relative, right,

711
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,400
Speaker 1: like Bradley wasn't risking his life in a war zone.

712
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,799
Speaker 1: But he's an artist, and ultimately he's a movie star,

713
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 1: and he's an A list movie star and booking his

714
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,839
Speaker 1: last run of movies like that, he would have had

715
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,879
Speaker 1: nothing in the can and if a star is born

716
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 1: has been a huge bus he he disappears like early

717
00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 1: at the very least, he takes a huge step back

718
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 1: and and it was not obvious people made fun of

719
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 1: the movie until the movie started getting screened. Everyone was like,

720
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,839
Speaker 1: oh shit, this is actually great. Let's pretend we always

721
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 1: thought it was great. Like that's so from my perspective,

722
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: having seen how hard he personally worked. And I haven't

723
00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 1: even gotten into Gaga. It was literally the only person

724
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:12,399
Speaker 1: on earth who could play the role, Like Glenn Close

725
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 1: is a legend, and I mean again, it's been gonna

726
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 1: if you're gonna lose, like she's amazing, and I get it,

727
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 1: like she's unfortunately getting the treatment I think I was

728
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 1: hoping Sam would get. But like, I don't know, man,

729
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 1: I'm just it's it's I now get to how like, uh,

730
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,399
Speaker 1: inside locker rooms and sports to turn this rant into

731
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:36,719
Speaker 1: something something resembling with the theme of this podcast. Um there,

732
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: I did not scrib that. By the way, I'm sitting

733
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 1: in my car in front of my house and I

734
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: just I shouldn't have probably said any of that stuff.

735
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:51,440
Speaker 1: So uh sorry, but the the uh, what the hell

736
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 1: is leaving gonna say? I was gonna say something about, oh,

737
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,960
Speaker 1: it's a sports locker room, locker room, So I now

738
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:03,800
Speaker 1: understand too, how like people people like Kevin Durant finally

739
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:07,799
Speaker 1: just freak out in the Breas conference because you know,

740
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 1: they just people make up stories in the media like

741
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,800
Speaker 1: they generate that they have to generate this this bludds

742
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 1: constantly to like to keep their jobs and keep people clicking,

743
00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: and and that's the I think that's the collective. A

744
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 1: d D has kind of descended on this movie where

745
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 1: they won the National Board Review. They won for for actors,

746
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 1: for director, and actress, and then it's like, and you

747
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,839
Speaker 1: just I I thought Robby Mallick winning Golden Globe could

748
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:34,680
Speaker 1: be good for us. I thought it was gonna like

749
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,839
Speaker 1: set set set us as the underdog and set up

750
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:41,239
Speaker 1: like an argost situation. And it's the exact opposite. It's

751
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 1: just like everybody's just decided, now this is the narrative

752
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 1: we're all gonna buy into. And and it's been really

753
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 1: crazy to watch up those some personal just knowing how

754
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 1: hard everyone worked and the risks everyone took, like shooting

755
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,919
Speaker 1: for ten minutes on stage coach and if you don't

756
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 1: get it, you don't have the opening like five minutes

757
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,320
Speaker 1: of the movie. Anyway, I'm gonna stop talking now because

758
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,919
Speaker 1: I had a lot of coffee. That was the most

759
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,239
Speaker 1: passionate thing that's ever been done on this podcast. So

760
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:12,600
Speaker 1: we love it, um can you? But but going through

761
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 1: all of this, now, can you do anything else? Like?

762
00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 1: Is it all consuming? From the moment you're nominated until

763
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:24,360
Speaker 1: the moment of the awards ceremony? Is it like a job? Um?

764
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,240
Speaker 1: It's way more like a job if I was more famous.

765
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 1: I think for me, it's definitely been There's been a

766
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:32,399
Speaker 1: lot of events and stuff. I'm going to the bath

767
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 1: this last weekend with my wife's cams. I was really

768
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,320
Speaker 1: excited about. But she had to make she had to

769
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:39,720
Speaker 1: pump with logistic like breast pumps for her break beating.

770
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 1: It was literally like the logistics of it, we're we're crazy.

771
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:45,319
Speaker 1: Um so it does. It has spelled for for me,

772
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 1: like it's been something every day. Um yeah, you do,

773
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:52,799
Speaker 1: like Doe, there's been interview or stuff like you know,

774
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. So it doesn't be like a

775
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 1: job and it feels amazing. It's like it's an incredible feeling.

776
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 1: Very Jenkins, like this is the nicest guy in the world.

777
00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 1: The first when I went to the Oscars luncheon I

778
00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 1: walked in, it was one of those pictures where like

779
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 1: they just kind of rand they set people up and

780
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: it's done by an artist or something, and that's like

781
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 1: Adam McKay staying next to me. There's a guy right

782
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:15,480
Speaker 1: over my shoulder and he's handcume over my shoulder. It's

783
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:17,600
Speaker 1: very Jenkins, just like, Hi, I'm very and I was like,

785
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff left and right. You know, it's

786
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,359
Speaker 1: just surreal and you're around these people I have slend

787
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:26,279
Speaker 1: so much respect for and and uh, I've got to

788
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,800

791
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,280
Speaker 1: you want to win. Everybody's competitive, I think on some level.

792
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:40,520
Speaker 1: But you know, at the same time, you really do

793
00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 1: have to stop and just appreciate that you're here and

Speaker 1: then you get to do this for for the next

795

801
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:03,840

803
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,919
Speaker 1: I'm happy to not be dealing with a baby. Most

804
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,720
Speaker 1: important question of the day, um, which oscars? After party?

805
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:16,279
Speaker 1: Will we be attending together? Why are you so? What

00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:19,200
Speaker 1: you deal? Are you coming out for the weekends? When

807
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 1: you will you you like fly? Are you gonna be

808
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 1: on the red carpet. Will if you get me into

809
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 1: a party, I will be there at the Dayton Time. Appointed.

810
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 1: I thought you said you were coming in the last

811
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 1: five I am going to be in California, so get there,

812
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,799
Speaker 1: like yeah, I just said I'm gonna be there. When

813
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:41,280
Speaker 1: are the Oscars two weeks from a week from Sunday?

814
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:43,680
Speaker 1: So I just want to know which party we're going

815
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:45,880
Speaker 1: to so I can plan my attire accordingly. Okay, So

816
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 1: the only the only party I haven't gotten. I've gotten

817
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: some invites for parties during the week, um, but I

818
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,799
Speaker 1: haven't gotten the night up stuff. I could probably get

819
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 1: you into Warners or I could probably get you into

820
00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,760
Speaker 1: w I mean, those are the two that I can

821
00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 1: I can pull my have a little bit of plate. Okay, alright, good,

822
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 1: then I'll see you out in California. You're not booking

823
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,240
Speaker 1: your business trip until you know where you'll be drinking

824
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,400
Speaker 1: after you're done working. I just want to plan the

825
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:16,360
Speaker 1: attire accordingly because on the one hand, obviously I'm something

826
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,040
Speaker 1: of a trend setter fashion wise, but I don't want

827
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:22,919
Speaker 1: to upstage you. So that's fair, that's fair. I've got

828
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 1: to do it, do it right. What's amazing to me

829
00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:29,080
Speaker 1: is like it sounds you're like up all night with

830
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 1: the baby before the announcement, You're driving him to school,

831
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 1: like it's raining outside, your wife is pumping in the

832
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:38,120
Speaker 1: way path to It's like you're not making it sound

833
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:44,120
Speaker 1: all that glamorous. Well, well, I mean yeah, it's I

834
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 1: don't know, man, I'm kind of I have a hard

835
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:51,799
Speaker 1: time just like falling into things. You know, I'm as

836
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,200
Speaker 1: my nature as maybe a person at the very least

837
00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:56,439
Speaker 1: as a writer, like I tend to observe my own life.

838
00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 1: So there is like what we were the pastives in

839
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 1: Kate Middleton, Will walked right by us and I was like,

840
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 1: that's crazy, you know, Like I'm just I'm more, it's more.

841
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:08,360
Speaker 1: I'm just saying I thought about like that for for

842
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,600
Speaker 1: ten minutes, and and so you know, there arem you

843
00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:13,960
Speaker 1: have moments throughout the course of it. It's like everything

844
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,720
Speaker 1: nothing is just one thing. I will say. I remember

845
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,279
Speaker 1: the first time I met Bradley was right after the

846
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,279
Speaker 1: Sniper Oscars and I said something to him about like

847
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 1: you know, how crazy it must have been, and he

848
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,799
Speaker 1: kind of cave me this look like it's whatever. Man.

849
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 1: Like It's like and it's true. Once you go through,

850
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 1: it's like you put on different suits and tuxedos. You go,

851
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,279
Speaker 1: everyone's nice to you. It's it's amazing. It's so nice.

852
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:38,360
Speaker 1: You feel like you're It's like going to a wedding

853
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 1: where there's where everyone's the bride and groom. That's how

854
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 1: it feels like. One one uh last last question is

855
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:49,799
Speaker 1: when it comes to Academy voters, do you think that

856
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,600
Speaker 1: threats work at all and getting the vote your way?

857
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 1: Because I have said, listen, I'm taking it as an

858
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,759
Speaker 1: assumption that you're gonna win because they know that we're

859
00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 1: best friends now. So if you don't, they know they're

860
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 1: gonna have to deal with me. But if if either

861
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 1: Bradley Cooper doesn't win for Best Actor or it doesn't

862
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:07,919
Speaker 1: win for Best Picture, I'm gonna write I I'm they're

863
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 1: gonna have problems on their hands, because I'm gonna call him.

864
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,920
Speaker 1: So I met. I met Tony McNamara, who wrote The Favorite,

865
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,240
Speaker 1: and I love The Favorite and it's weird and awesome.

866
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:18,759
Speaker 1: And I told Tony and I said, that's the first

867
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:20,799
Speaker 1: thing I could think to say. The first I was like, look, man,

868
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:23,799
Speaker 1: that's a movie. I'm happy to lose to you know

869
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:27,319
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like, there's the thing that I'm with you, Jack,

870
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:30,320
Speaker 1: Please don't murder anyone. I don't think no, I think.

871
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 1: I think Harvey Weinstein will tell you that that dirty

872
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:38,600
Speaker 1: tricks don't. Yeah, I tell you what, man, you do

873
00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:42,320
Speaker 1: see the way like everyone's trying to shift the narrative

874
00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 1: and and it's amazing to me how movies just like

875
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 1: the Beamy Rapsy thing is. It's remarkable. I mean, I

876
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:51,600
Speaker 1: don't understand. It's again, it's one thing to lose to

877
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,839
Speaker 1: the favorite, it's another thing to lose you, you know,

878
00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 1: I would say a more of a well, I'll say

879
00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 1: it's the movie sucked. It was an awful movie, all right,

880
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:06,920
Speaker 1: Rommy Rommy Malick was was good in his role, but

881
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 1: the movie sucked. Okay, it was awful. Also, let's just

882
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,360
Speaker 1: look at this realistically. If you're comparing A Star Is

883
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:19,760
Speaker 1: Born in Bohemian Rhapsody, they're both movies that involve musical

884
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:23,680
Speaker 1: performances and actors kind of getting into that role. How

885
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:26,759
Speaker 1: in God's name can you say Bohemian Rhapsody was a

886
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:29,880
Speaker 1: better movie in the music genre than A Star Is

887
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:34,279
Speaker 1: Born was. You can't Bradley Cooper made himself into a

888
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:38,759
Speaker 1: Grammy Award winning singer for the goddamn role. It's ridiculous.

889
00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:42,200
Speaker 1: Where's Ronny Mollock's Grammy. He doesn't have one because he

890
00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 1: stinks gives inside scoop. But my next thing is, I'm

891
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:49,279
Speaker 1: gonna write this movie and it's gonna require Bradley to

892
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:52,280
Speaker 1: um to become a surgeon, To become a hard surgeon

893
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:56,759
Speaker 1: actually performing, you got to go to school and school.

894
00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 1: The next couple of years he'll be doing that. And

895
00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:00,080
Speaker 1: then when he's done with, day's gonna come out and

896
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:01,920
Speaker 1: they're gonna work in a hospital for a while, and

897
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:04,239
Speaker 1: he's gonna like be around doctors and actually like learn

898
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:07,600
Speaker 1: how to prescribe medicine and like diagnose. And then and

899
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 1: then we're all time. We're dropping in the middle of

900
00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:13,440
Speaker 1: like um, like a saving private Ryan situation where it's

901
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:15,720
Speaker 1: like a real war zone, but it won't be that dangerous.

902
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 1: We'll keep a little safe. And then while he's there,

903
00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 1: he's gonna have to perform like, you know, basic surgery.

904
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 1: You know, we're gonna come it. And and then he's

905
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 1: gonna lose to George Cooley doing the er in the movie. Listen,

906
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 1: we are super psyched for you. We're glad you're having

907
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:37,880
Speaker 1: all the success. You sound like you're handling it amazing. Well, um,

908
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,280
Speaker 1: and I'm excited for Blackjack to go out and celebrate
