Speaker 1: We'll talk more about that in a little bit. But
Speaker 1: plus some NBA Clay Thompson's amazing return. There's a lot
Speaker 1: this week, but this year is made all the better,
Speaker 1: no pun intended by the fact that sports betting is
Speaker 1: finally legal in New York. Bet MGM is launching this week.
Speaker 1: Start spreading the news. You're gonna take it away in
Speaker 1: New York. I don't know the rest of the words
Speaker 1: for the song, but I know it's it's competing with
Speaker 1: Frank Sinatra to become the anthem of New York. It's
Speaker 1: really I mean, last time I ask you to sing, yeah,
Speaker 1: don't do that. I mean, I you know, like some
Speaker 1: people have zero talent for something, I have a negative
Speaker 1: ability for singing or really anything else in life. So
Speaker 1: don't ask me to do anything else except wing it.
Speaker 1: All I'm good at is winging it. Okay, okay for
Speaker 1: a man. So Mike, you cannot carry it tune, No,
Speaker 1: I cannot. I cannot you That would actually be a
Speaker 1: good punishment pick at the end if I lost, if
Speaker 1: you just made me sing yeah, Well, what do you think?
Speaker 1: Honest New York betting? It seems like this is going
Speaker 1: to be, you know, monstrous. This is great for New York.
Speaker 1: This is great. Now we don't have to hide it anymore.
Speaker 1: We could talk about hand the open. We can go
Speaker 1: get an egg and cheese and be like, did you
Speaker 1: hit your ova under? I got a pole yesterday? You
Speaker 1: know what I mean? You can talk about it over slices.
Speaker 1: We can have our phones out and we can make
Speaker 1: a little money. Thank god, we can do it out
Speaker 1: in the open like everybody else. This is sweeping the nation.
Speaker 1: Gambling is taken over. Baby, it's fun. Make a little scratch.
Speaker 1: I mean we're spreading faster than covid. God, should that
Speaker 1: be the byeline? Is that the marketing plan for betting? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I'm not again, I said, the only thing I'm good
Speaker 1: at his wing and I'm not good at marketing, so
Speaker 1: that we gotta hire. Yeah, that's not my strong suit.
Speaker 1: You're good at one liners too. You're always keeping me
Speaker 1: on my toes. Hey, another celebration, A big win is
Speaker 1: my alma mater. You g a baby winning Monday Night
Speaker 1: beating Nick Saban. Finally, how about them dogs? I gotta
Speaker 1: teach you a couple of you gisms here. What we
Speaker 1: say is you say how about them dogs? And that's
Speaker 1: just like how you say hello, and then you can
Speaker 1: also say just go dog sick them. Oh that was
Speaker 1: going to hear one of those that was on par
Speaker 1: with dan Orlovsky's. That was a really horrible dog park.
Speaker 1: But yeah, how about them dogs? What you gotta do it.
Speaker 1: Do you have to do with like a Southern accident?
Speaker 1: How about damn dogs? Y'all? Yeas, like if you're you're
Speaker 1: filling up your car at the gas station, someone walks by, Hey,
Speaker 1: how you doing? How about them dogs? How about them dogs?
Speaker 1: But while you were on campus, it was probably a
Speaker 1: little bit more of just like a drunken you guys
Speaker 1: used to get lit up. Georgia is a party school,
Speaker 1: bit is it is? Speaking of partying? Did you see
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks that's in Bennett on g M A the
Speaker 1: morning after the game. Look, I watched the game. I
Speaker 1: watched it. It was an incredible, incredible sports experience, and
Speaker 1: that that guy was a walk on and he was
Speaker 1: dreaming his whole life about playing for Georgia and then
Speaker 1: to win a national title. I myself from a former
Speaker 1: walk on who didn't make it. Okay, all right. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you remember the history, but I tried
Speaker 1: to walk on at the American University and I didn't
Speaker 1: make it. So I feel like he made it for
Speaker 1: all us walk on. Yeah. I started a slow, rudy
Speaker 1: clap in my living room for him, and a tear
Speaker 1: dropped down my face and I saluted the flag. I
Speaker 1: got goose bumps everywhere. You did it for all of
Speaker 1: us under dogs out there. Congratulations to Olivia, the Bulldogs
Speaker 1: and Mr Walker. What was his name? Steltson Stiltonson Bennett,
Speaker 1: Stetson Bennett, who couldn't be more of a white name.
Speaker 1: I mean, that name is so white it hurts my back.
Speaker 1: I think I just threw my back out saying that,
Speaker 1: well he was. He is like the Harold now for
Speaker 1: all walk Ons. And not only did he walk on
Speaker 1: at U g A, they kept bringing in all these
Speaker 1: big recruits at quarterback and pushing him further and further
Speaker 1: down the depth chart. The guy had a switch to
Speaker 1: a Juico school. He transferred to Juco, played a season
Speaker 1: in Juco, came back to Hugh g A, got a scholarship,
Speaker 1: still buried on the depth chart, and worked his way up.
Speaker 1: But I mean, it's an incredible story. But what I
Speaker 1: was referencing earlier is he must have had himself a
Speaker 1: night as he well should have, and he's graduating. He's done.
Speaker 1: He's not an NFL guy like this is it for
Speaker 1: old Stetson Bennett. And I think he was still sipping
Speaker 1: on some Southern comfort in the wee hours of the
Speaker 1: morning for his g m A appearance. Let's roll in
Speaker 1: that tape that was too good. Good morning, my friend.
Speaker 1: How you feeling this morning after that incredible performance last night?
Speaker 1: Have you had a chance to get any sleep? You know,
Speaker 1: a few hours? Not many I've been wondering about. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: not many. Honest, I hope you're in that kind of
Speaker 1: shape when we get in l A for the Super Bowl,
Speaker 1: because I'm going to request some kind of really early
Speaker 1: morning recording after our first night in town. What do
Speaker 1: you think I want? I want to hear you steps
Speaker 1: and bennetting your way through a recording. Well, you can
Speaker 1: do that right now because we're recording pretty early for us,
Speaker 1: and you know, I'm half a cup of coffee in
Speaker 1: and you know, having a baby is like drinking. You know,
Speaker 1: that's like that's like a responsible parent. That's the same
Speaker 1: thing it does to you. It's like you're hungover every morning,
Speaker 1: you know, puffy eyes. I don't know where which direction
Speaker 1: is which. I feel like I'm actually drunk every day,
Speaker 1: chasing a toddler around, making sure she doesn't drink bleach. See,
Speaker 1: that's why I want a night nurse and an esthetician
Speaker 1: to move into my house. I want those two things,
Speaker 1: so I constantly have a facial every morning. All right,
Speaker 1: enough of this nonsense. Yeah, I mean being apparent. You
Speaker 1: almost feel like a free safety. You feel like a safety,
Speaker 1: like you're just wherever she goes. It's like wherever the ball,
Speaker 1: you just go. And just like I tackle her before
Speaker 1: she she jumps into toilet or she you know, it's
Speaker 1: just it's I need to be I need to win
Speaker 1: Defensive Player of the Year because I have stopped a
Speaker 1: lot of offensive threats from her to run outside or
Speaker 1: fall into the toilet. So yeah, I got a great
Speaker 1: game plan. And that's great parenting advice in terms that
Speaker 1: I understand. So thank you very much. Enough of this
Speaker 1: swaddling nonsense. Don't tell me all this stuff I don't know.
Speaker 1: Tell me in football terms, Speaking of which, we've got
Speaker 1: a lot to get to. The NFL playoffs kick off
Speaker 1: this weekend with the Super wild Card weekend. That means
Speaker 1: each conference gets three wild card teams. You know, it
Speaker 1: used to be too, so this is a big deal.
Speaker 1: It's all very exciting. We'll talk to bet MGMs Peter
Speaker 1: Andrew about all six games I'm actually going to be
Speaker 1: on the sidelines for Steelers at Kansas City on the
Speaker 1: national radio broadcast if you want to tune into Westwood one.
Speaker 1: I can't wait for that one. Big Ben's career is continuing.
Speaker 1: As the Steelers managed to get into the playoffs, they
Speaker 1: get at least one more game. All the pieces fell
Speaker 1: into place, and the Raiders pulled off one of the
Speaker 1: most exciting wins in NFL history to keep their a
Speaker 1: f C West Division rivals, the Chargers out. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna talk all about that wild Week eight team finish
Speaker 1: in a second. Plus. Coming up, we've got a great
Speaker 1: guest from CBS Sports and you know him from the
Speaker 1: w w E. Jonathan Coachman. He's got some great stories
Speaker 1: from his time there. Can't wait to pick his brain.
Speaker 1: W w E is always fun to dissect. And by
Speaker 1: the way, before we get to this week's Unleashed Janice,
Speaker 1: you're unleashed from last week? Did come true? You out
Speaker 1: what you wanted, my friend, The New York Football Giants
Speaker 1: listened to your demands and Joe Judge is out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean there was rumors he was gonna stay. He
Speaker 1: was acting confident like he was gonna stay and they
Speaker 1: were gonna fire everybody else. But it looks like they're
Speaker 1: cleaning house. It looks like we're wiping out everybody. It's
Speaker 1: just a whack job. It's like the end of Good Fellas.
Speaker 1: You just gotta walk people in the room, you know,
Speaker 1: and just bang back in the head, bullets into the
Speaker 1: back of the head, and we start fresh. So you
Speaker 1: gotta blow it up. You gotta blow it up. And
Speaker 1: I hope they get a quarterback in the draft or
Speaker 1: you know, everyone's saying what they do, they gotta get
Speaker 1: a line. I mean, they gotta work. I've realized now
Speaker 1: that I've been watching so much football this year, everything
Speaker 1: is really the offensive line. Without an offensive line, you
Speaker 1: can't do anything. You can't run the ball effectively, you
Speaker 1: can't pass the ball effectively. You don't even need great
Speaker 1: receivers because if your offensive line holds holds the line
Speaker 1: long enough, one of those guys will get open. I
Speaker 1: don't care for me out there. Get the quarterback seconds
Speaker 1: you'll be able to find me. So the Giants, it's
Speaker 1: the same old story. Just draft offensive lineman who cares
Speaker 1: and bring Doug Flutie back to play quarterback. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: We need an old line, baby, well, so here's the
Speaker 1: hot question then, because there are not a lot of
Speaker 1: great quarterbacks in this year's draft at all, so you're
Speaker 1: kind of having to get the free agency market, which
Speaker 1: could be Russell Wilson. It could be a hate to say,
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, but neither one of those guys are going
Speaker 1: to New York. Who do you want as your quarterback?
Speaker 1: And who would you want as your head coach? Russell Wilson,
Speaker 1: that's the r That's what every New Yorker is hoping for.
Speaker 1: You know, Paul Versey, who we had on this show,
Speaker 1: he acts like he works in the front office and
Speaker 1: the Giants. He's like, we don't need to draft a
Speaker 1: quarterback because Russell Wilson's coming. I'm like, you know, And
Speaker 1: he does that with everything, like he was like Lebron's
Speaker 1: coming to New York, and then k D's coming to
Speaker 1: New York, and now it's Russell Wilson's definitely coming to
Speaker 1: It's like, it's like, dude, you don't work in the
Speaker 1: front office. Okay, every time you say something, it doesn't happen.
Speaker 1: I hope he comes. He's thirty three, he's still got
Speaker 1: a lot of good football, So I hope it's him.
Speaker 1: Obviously it's not gonna be Rogers, I don't think. But
Speaker 1: hopefully it's him, Yeah, I mean you said it. Hopefully
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson cup. Hopefully Sierra wants to come to New
Speaker 1: York and you know, just for her, Yeah, yeah, good
Speaker 1: business move for her. So you know, I hope they
Speaker 1: recruit her. I hope the Giants get on the couch
Speaker 1: just like they did when they recruit, you know, coming
Speaker 1: out of high school and they say, hey, guys, look
Speaker 1: we can get you in this restaurant, we can get
Speaker 1: you in this club. You know. Just that's the way
Speaker 1: you gotta pitch stars like that. It's like, look, bum
Speaker 1: bum bum, we give you this. You get you get
Speaker 1: to go to the Cirque, you get to go to
Speaker 1: mckeens steakhouse. Whatever they gotta do to pitch them, even
Speaker 1: if it's a little money under the table, we'll look
Speaker 1: the other way. Yeah, you know, it's an NFL, right,
Speaker 1: you can you don't have to put the money under
Speaker 1: the table. This can be all right in front of you.
Speaker 1: But I don't know, I'm Aaron Rodgers. If he's not
Speaker 1: returning to Green Bay, which would be horrible. I think
Speaker 1: that'd be a huge gaff for the Packers. But if
Speaker 1: he doesn't return to Green Bay, I bet he goes
Speaker 1: to Denver. Remember, see Layers are looking for a quarterback.
Speaker 1: This is gonna be an interesting quarterback market in a
Speaker 1: horrible year. Why couldn't this have been last year, right
Speaker 1: when all these quarterbacks are taken in the first round. Anyways,
Speaker 1: a lot of coaches were fired on Black Monday, Joe
Speaker 1: Judge being one of them. I have an uncle who's
Speaker 1: actually an NFL coaches agent. In this time of year
Speaker 1: for him, oh my gosh, from Thanksgiving when the college
Speaker 1: football firing start right now, it's bleak, my friend, it
Speaker 1: is dark, and I feel for all the agents out
Speaker 1: there because it's uh, it's not fun being on the phone.
Speaker 1: He lives on the phone. It's like such a stereotype. Anyways,
Speaker 1: you know who had a bad week who was not
Speaker 1: a fired NFL coach? I think you're about to tell
Speaker 1: me about our bad beat of the week, Brad beat
Speaker 1: all the Week. Yeah, and it's one of bed MGM's
Speaker 1: most loyal followers. We see him all the time on Twitter.
Speaker 1: It's Woades. He had a seven team parlay let down
Speaker 1: by the Cardinals. Even in the forty niners, how to
Speaker 1: come back? When to keep him in it? But no, sorry, Wads,
Speaker 1: but our gift to you is one hundred dollars site
Speaker 1: credit so you can try your luck again, just in
Speaker 1: time for the wild Card weekend, the Super wild Card weekend.
Speaker 1: And for all of you listeners, this could be you
Speaker 1: just tweet us at MGM with a pick of your
Speaker 1: bad beat and you could win. We announced every week
Speaker 1: on the show. So that's a big deal, hundred big ones.
Speaker 1: I just I'd like just an envelope in the mail
Speaker 1: with the hundred bucks cash. That's what I want. I
Speaker 1: love it. I love it. It's like the last scene
Speaker 1: in Saving Private Ryan, like, look, you lost, but listen,
Speaker 1: we gave you this. Make it worth it. Make it
Speaker 1: worth it. Make that hundred bucks worth the sacrifice, the
Speaker 1: loss that you had. Make it worth it guy, right now. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: And at the end of the show, we're gonna have
Speaker 1: to talk with Peter Andrew. If you did have a
Speaker 1: hundred bucks sitting there burning a hole in your pocket,
Speaker 1: who you should bet on. So that's gonna be fun
Speaker 1: at the end. Okay, let's keep it moving and sound
Speaker 1: off on one topic we feel passionately about their week. Honest,
Speaker 1: it's time to unleagal. It's let's unleash my girl. Hats
Speaker 1: off to the n F freaking l fans and even
Speaker 1: players were not sold on an eighteen week regular season. Well,
Speaker 1: I for one, I'm sold. That was such an incredible
Speaker 1: finale to an incredible season. In a quick tangent, this
Speaker 1: is why college football needs an expanded playoff in more parody.
Speaker 1: If there's a way to replicate the steaks and the
Speaker 1: chaos of the NFL at the college level, I'm all
Speaker 1: for it. Down to the wire, so many teams were
Speaker 1: still alive for the playoffs, so many games mattered. You
Speaker 1: could not have scripted it any better that final Sunday.
Speaker 1: It was incredible as we watched it all unfold. First Jaguars,
Speaker 1: they absolutely shocked the Colts, which it left the door
Speaker 1: open for the Steelers. More on that, I kind of
Speaker 1: felt bad for the Colts, I gotta say. And the
Speaker 1: second I said that, my husband was like, what, No,
Speaker 1: you can't feel bad for a team, and there's no
Speaker 1: excuse to lose for the Jaguars. But I don't know
Speaker 1: culture a good story this season. He's yea. It was
Speaker 1: like you're cold hearted, I you know, hard knocks, and
Speaker 1: they had won all those games and Jonathan Taylor and
Speaker 1: then Carson Wentz just looked horrible. So now that's going
Speaker 1: to be his storyline. The Colts lost a draft pick
Speaker 1: by getting Carson, so that their futures looking bleak, and
Speaker 1: the Jaguars, good for them, I guess, I mean they
Speaker 1: are going to get the number one pick in the draft.
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence finished the season really good. He he looked
Speaker 1: great on Sunday, so Jaguars have a lot to be
Speaker 1: happy about. Okay, But then we saw Big Ben in
Speaker 1: what could have meant his last raw. You know, they
Speaker 1: had the home game where he paraded around the field
Speaker 1: as a big deal. ESPN was super awkward about it,
Speaker 1: being like this may be his last game. We're not sure,
Speaker 1: blah blah, because he hasn't officially said that. It's more
Speaker 1: like implied anyway. So then he had a road game.
Speaker 1: They win, They beat the Ravens uh in overtime. I mean,
Speaker 1: it was incredible. We saw t J. Watt tied the
Speaker 1: single season sack record and lock up to Fensive Player
Speaker 1: of the Year. That was really fun to watch. But
Speaker 1: Steelers Nation wasn't officially in yet, so even with this win,
Speaker 1: one more thing still had to happen. Honest, I told
Speaker 1: you this was good. That takes us to the final
Speaker 1: game of the season Sunday night in Sin City. Yes,
Speaker 1: I wrote that myself, incredible alliteration. The fate of three
Speaker 1: teams were in the hands of two coaches. Many thought
Speaker 1: they should just take any play to a tie at midfield.
Speaker 1: It was like a standoff, and they almost did it
Speaker 1: was it was theater after everything the Raiders have been
Speaker 1: through this season, with the Henry Ruggs car crash, the
Speaker 1: John Gruden scandal, an interim coach, Derek Carr, a quarterback
Speaker 1: many people have doubted. Went down to the final seconds
Speaker 1: and they did it on the foot of Daniel Carlson.
Speaker 1: Raiders end the awkward standoff and kicked the Chargers out
Speaker 1: of the playoff picture. Forget Succession, forget yellow Stone. This
Speaker 1: was the most dramatic Sunday Night of television I've ever seen.
Speaker 1: It was incredible. As an NFL fan, I was salivating.
Speaker 1: Congrats NFL on an amazing season and an amazing eighteenth
Speaker 1: week first time ever with this expanded schedule, setting up
Speaker 1: a great playoff. Unbelievable action. Unbelievable action. Like you said,
Speaker 1: they almost did play to a tie. Who knows that
Speaker 1: time out it's not called. Maybe they just run it
Speaker 1: out and that's it and they don't go and Big
Speaker 1: Ben has to limp off into the sunset because yeah,
Speaker 1: the kids, the kids, the kids got a lot of
Speaker 1: miles on them. And yes, oh god, Carson wentz again again.
Speaker 1: It's almost like you wanted, you wanted the cults to
Speaker 1: have nick falls there to get them in there. Carson wentz. Yeah,
Speaker 1: disappointment again. You know, he's trying to redeem himself. Well
Speaker 1: not really, he got injured, but I'm just saying, like,
Speaker 1: you know, just you know, to redeem himself as the
Speaker 1: number one guy. It doesn't work out. It's rough, but
Speaker 1: what a game that was. It was unbelievable to watch.
Speaker 1: And I've never i mean fourth down conversions. I mean,
Speaker 1: let's talk about this kid, huh throwing rus twenty one
Speaker 1: yards for a touchdown? Kids got balls, Kids got balls? Okay,
Speaker 1: you're honest. Quick question on Big Ben. You know how
Speaker 1: some football players when they retire, they get really skinny.
Speaker 1: Have you seen this? Yeah, it's usually offensive lineman like
Speaker 1: Joe Thomas. Have you seen a recent picture of Joe Thomas.
Speaker 1: He's felt and handsome and looks great and no offense
Speaker 1: and I'm actually friends with his wife. But he looks
Speaker 1: better than ever than when he played all those years.
Speaker 1: Do you think big Ben will like be in g
Speaker 1: Q anytime soon post career? Like, like, maybe he's not
Speaker 1: that big out of a football uniform, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Big Ben has he's got that fat potential.
Speaker 1: You can see his face, you see it. He's got
Speaker 1: like he's gonna blow out. I mean, that kid's gonna
Speaker 1: blow out. He's going the other way. You can see
Speaker 1: it in his cheeks. He's got that chirrub like he's
Speaker 1: he's got a body that's begging to be fat. You know.
Speaker 1: So I think he goes the other way. He goes
Speaker 1: the other way, and he's just gonna blow out. He's
Speaker 1: gonna Yeah, he's just you won't be seeing him with
Speaker 1: your dad calling any games as a color commentator. That
Speaker 1: kid's gonna be on the couch. I didn't even think
Speaker 1: about that. How would he be on area? Yeah? He
Speaker 1: might be great. Yeah, I don't know, I don't see it.
Speaker 1: He's blowing out the kids got a fat face. How
Speaker 1: about next season, we have a big Ben watch and
Speaker 1: we just kind of keep tabs on him, you and me.
Speaker 1: I love it. I love it. We should just keep
Speaker 1: We should check in week by week and see, you know,
Speaker 1: see how much weight he's game. I love it. That
Speaker 1: was an amazing unleashed Olivia. That was absolutely amazing. I
Speaker 1: love hearing your passion for football. It was an incredible
Speaker 1: season and we got incredible games coming up wild Card.
Speaker 1: It's just unbelievable fun. You know what. I was clicking
Speaker 1: back and forth. I was actually clicking back and forth.
Speaker 1: The game was amazing. The Chargers, it was amazing. But
Speaker 1: I had to check in to see the return of
Speaker 1: Clay Thompson. I think probably the most underappreciated player. Ah.
Speaker 1: You have to nominate him all time as one of
Speaker 1: the most underappreciated players, unsung heroes, even in big games.
Speaker 1: The guy is just a machine of efficiency. And in
Speaker 1: an era where guys are playing on super teams and
Speaker 1: you know, talking about their contracts and all the egoism,
Speaker 1: this guy just sits back in the cut plays chess
Speaker 1: in his free time. He's a huge chess fan, which
Speaker 1: I am too, So it makes me love him even more.
Speaker 1: And he defers to Steph who gets all the credit
Speaker 1: and everything, but make zero mistake, he is the second
Speaker 1: best shooter in NBA history. We're talking about Clay Thompson's
Speaker 1: return to the Golden State Warriors. I had to click
Speaker 1: over on my during commercials and even miss some of
Speaker 1: the Charger game to just hear the roar of the
Speaker 1: crowd they love him in the bay and watching him
Speaker 1: come out and have an amazing game game obviously they
Speaker 1: were running plays for him, you know, and he was chucking.
Speaker 1: He put up a lot of shots, but he looked great.
Speaker 1: One of his first plays was a dunk, and it
Speaker 1: was just great to see him back on the court,
Speaker 1: I mean, the last time. It was a good feeling.
Speaker 1: It was a good feeling because the last time he's
Speaker 1: been out, he's been out for two years, horrible injuries.
Speaker 1: It was just a reminder of an innocent time before
Speaker 1: COVID seeing him out there, you know where Pete Davidson
Speaker 1: was just making jokes about the Kardashians and he wasn't
Speaker 1: putting his big piece in them. It was just, yeah,
Speaker 1: it was the time before waves. It was a time
Speaker 1: before variants. It was a time before masks. Someone actually
Speaker 1: pointed out that the last time Clay Thompson played, if
Speaker 1: you had bought fifty dollars worth of bitcoin, right, it
Speaker 1: would be worth a hunt one point six seven million
Speaker 1: dollars today. That's how long ago it was that Clay
Speaker 1: Thompson was out there. Tears came into my eyes. It
Speaker 1: was just great to see the Splash brothers together again
Speaker 1: on the court. Obviously, basketball is about to kick up.
Speaker 1: We're about to start talking a lot of basketball. They're
Speaker 1: a contender. He's pumped, he's pumped. He's got a chip
Speaker 1: on his shoulder now because he didn't make, you know,
Speaker 1: the greatest players, probably because he was hurt. So you
Speaker 1: got a backcourt now that both of them play with
Speaker 1: the chip on the shoulder because you know, Steph always
Speaker 1: played with the chip on his shoulder because he was
Speaker 1: from a mid major and Davidson overlooked too slow, whatever,
Speaker 1: and now Clay, both sons of former NBA players, to
Speaker 1: those guys have a lot in common, and it's just
Speaker 1: great to see the Flash brothers back in the pool.
Speaker 1: I'm rooting for Golden State this year. They're my second
Speaker 1: favorite team behind the Turkishish Kebabs over there in Turkey
Speaker 1: with my favorite player, Sam Decker, so Go dubbed Nation Congrats.
Speaker 1: Clay Day was an absolute pleasure to watch, and basketball
Speaker 1: is about to ramp up, big baby. You know, I
Speaker 1: had a hard time on focusing on anything else that
Speaker 1: do you mentioned the litt nugget about bitcoin? Do you
Speaker 1: own any bitcoin? I don't own any bitcoin. I didn't
Speaker 1: you know. I still think it's a ponzi scheme. I'm
Speaker 1: not convinced. I know there's back Damon's doing commercials. I
Speaker 1: just don't understand it. It's like what I get a
Speaker 1: couple of bitcoin, I can buy an illustration of a
Speaker 1: gorilla to make my profile pick for a week. I mean,
Speaker 1: why would I pay? No, that's n f t S.
Speaker 1: These are different. That's n f T S, which is
Speaker 1: equally weird and confusing. But you and I are probably
Speaker 1: just antiquated. Yeah. I'm a boomer. I'm such a boomer. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're I'm a boomer. I got boomer energy, and I
Speaker 1: wish we had boomer size and on okay, actually, small plug.
Speaker 1: If you are interested in n f T S, we
Speaker 1: had someone on our show who explained it. It went
Speaker 1: over my head. I still didn't get it, but it
Speaker 1: was an incredible episode. Go back to the Austin Neckler episode.
Speaker 1: Austin Neckler running back for the Chargers. He is really
Speaker 1: deep in the game and n f T s, so
Speaker 1: go search that one. Okay, that was incredibly honest. I agree,
Speaker 1: Clay Day was a huge success and for everyone listening
Speaker 1: to the show. Once the NFL season wraps up, you're
Speaker 1: gonna make a major pivot to a lot of basketball,
Speaker 1: so you're gonna get all your basketball news here too.
Speaker 1: Great stuff, you honest. Let's go ahead and get to
Speaker 1: our guest this week. He's had a great career that's
Speaker 1: put him face to face with some of the best
Speaker 1: athletes in the world and also in headlocks from them
Speaker 1: as well. He spent ten years in the w w E.
Speaker 1: Now you can find him covering sports, betting, the p
Speaker 1: g A and who knows when you'll show up in
Speaker 1: a w w E ring again. Jonathan Coachman, he just
Speaker 1: told us we can call him coach. How you doing, Coach.
Speaker 1: It's so good to be on with you guys. Now listen,
Speaker 1: I've been listening to your content for a minute. Now,
Speaker 1: you guys are on point. I love bet MGM. So
Speaker 1: it is a thrill to get the offer, and it's
Speaker 1: a thrill to be on with you guys here today.
Speaker 1: How nice is that? Now? I kind of went through
Speaker 1: your bio little, but I left tons out obviously a
Speaker 1: former football player, yourself, walk us through because everyone gets
Speaker 1: into sports broadcasting, I feel like, in a different way,
Speaker 1: walk us through your way. Yeah, it's so funny because
Speaker 1: I had such a lucky but I put myself in
Speaker 1: position to get to a point where I was on
Speaker 1: national TV. But I tell people all the time, whether
Speaker 1: you're in college where they're in high school, if you
Speaker 1: have a dream of being on television or radio or
Speaker 1: now podcasting or anything like that, you gotta put yourself
Speaker 1: in position. And I did that right out of college.
Speaker 1: I was in local TV. I was only in Market
Speaker 1: sixty for a minute, Kansas City Market thirty. I'm very
Speaker 1: lucky at the age of twenty two, and then I
Speaker 1: was only there for eight months and I got the
Speaker 1: offer to go to w w E. So it was
Speaker 1: a very lucky way of doing it. But getting to
Speaker 1: national TV when you're only twenty three certainly put you
Speaker 1: on the fast track. Uh. And then at ESPN for
Speaker 1: ten years. But now I'm doing exactly what I've always
Speaker 1: wanted to do. We were building our own brand at CBS.
Speaker 1: Sports Lines amazing, and I get to to work with
Speaker 1: so many different great people that understand sports and understand
Speaker 1: sports betting. So I'm having a blast. But I've had
Speaker 1: a great career so far. So so thank you for
Speaker 1: listening all those accomplishments. Yeah, man, you're quite versatile, you
Speaker 1: know you were. You were great doing sports, also great
Speaker 1: doing wrestling. I have a question I've always wondered about wrestling.
Speaker 1: So much of the storyline is planned out. Is the
Speaker 1: commentating also planned out? Because you were so good at
Speaker 1: acting and emoting you know the storyline that was going
Speaker 1: on and and actually dramatizing it. So has that played
Speaker 1: out or is that just off the head. We kind
Speaker 1: of would attack a Monday night Raw or a Friday
Speaker 1: night SmackDown the same way that you would attack a
Speaker 1: football game or a basketball game, and you study the
Speaker 1: storylines and what is gonna sell that particular match to
Speaker 1: the audience at home. It's the same way if you're
Speaker 1: doing a football game or a basketball game or a
Speaker 1: baseball game, and you just lift up the stars and
Speaker 1: you make them almost superhuman to the fan at home,
Speaker 1: who's watching and who's listening. So that was our preparation.
Speaker 1: But I'll tell you this that Vince McMahon was in
Speaker 1: our ear every single night, almost every line I missed
Speaker 1: one Monday night in ten years one one, and he
Speaker 1: would be I got so good at hearing him and
Speaker 1: repeating what he wanted us to say that I could
Speaker 1: say within a half a second or maybe a second
Speaker 1: as it was coming to my ear, I could spit
Speaker 1: it out. Because if you didn't spit it out right
Speaker 1: when he said it, then he would scream at you
Speaker 1: for not saying it and interrupting other people. So you
Speaker 1: learned that you said what Vince wanted you to say,
Speaker 1: or you weren't gonna be out there for very long.
Speaker 1: And I did something right because I lasted ten years
Speaker 1: the first time, and then I went back for a
Speaker 1: year and a half or two years in two thousand
Speaker 1: eighteen and realized very quickly I didn't want to do
Speaker 1: that anymore, and this is what I was meant to
Speaker 1: be doing. He's such a larger than life figure of
Speaker 1: Vince McMahon is so successful. Obviously when he's not barking
Speaker 1: in your ear during a broadcast? What is he like
Speaker 1: to work with? Like, what's something you took away from
Speaker 1: his time? I think so many things away, so so
Speaker 1: many When I when I got the ESPN, so many
Speaker 1: people asked me what can you possibly take from wrestling
Speaker 1: to real sports? I mean, well, what can you carry over?
Speaker 1: There's a million different things. First and foremost, branding is everything.
Speaker 1: Every single person, every character, every move that we make
Speaker 1: in the w w E has to do with individual branding.
Speaker 1: But then bigger branding to the w w E. And
Speaker 1: I would say in sports betting it's exact same thing.
Speaker 1: There's so much competition right now that if you don't
Speaker 1: have the right branding, whether it's bet, MGM or any
Speaker 1: other sports book that you're talking about, you have to
Speaker 1: have the right branding. So that's the first thing I
Speaker 1: took over from Vince. The other thing was don't be
Speaker 1: scared to try something. And what I mean by that
Speaker 1: is in this day and age where seven guys and
Speaker 1: you do some on Monday and people forgot about it
Speaker 1: on Tuesday, try something. The whole reason early edge in
Speaker 1: sports Ligne is what it is today with us is
Speaker 1: because a year ago we tried something, and if it
Speaker 1: wouldn't have worked, we would have moved on and we
Speaker 1: would have tried something else. But that's another thing I
Speaker 1: took from him. What I took from the Rock was
Speaker 1: this timing. Everything you say has to matter. If you
Speaker 1: only got ninety seconds, that make it the best ninety
Speaker 1: seconds that you possibly can. Whether you're doing one of
Speaker 1: these shows, make it the best take that you can.
Speaker 1: And guess what sports better is if they're watching one
Speaker 1: of these shows, they don't want to hear you talk
Speaker 1: for two or three minutes, So get in thirty or
Speaker 1: forty five seconds and get out and move on down
Speaker 1: the road. So all of those things I learned from
Speaker 1: doing Monday Night Row and working with all those different talents,
Speaker 1: but specifically events. Damn you honest, we already recorded the open.
Speaker 1: We would have done it much more efficiently after we
Speaker 1: heard that nugget. Yeah, I mean you have me hyped
Speaker 1: coach two. Yeah, Well, I love that, you guys dont understand.
Speaker 1: I love this so much. And nothing drives me crazier
Speaker 1: than when somebody comes on somebody else's show and they
Speaker 1: act like they're doing you a favor. No, no, this
Speaker 1: is a thrill for me. Because this means that I'm
Speaker 1: doing something right. That we can sit here and chop
Speaker 1: up whatever it is, wrestling, sports, sports, betting. This is
Speaker 1: everything to me, and so you're gonna get the best
Speaker 1: of me no matter what it is, what time of
Speaker 1: the day, and what the show is. What you said,
Speaker 1: you you realize it wasn't for you, and I've read
Speaker 1: that you've said that you'll never go back to it,
Speaker 1: and you know, I hate to say it this way,
Speaker 1: but let's just bring it up. You said you love
Speaker 1: to not be working for a company that doesn't have
Speaker 1: that too respect, just paraphrasing. Can you elaborate on that
Speaker 1: a little bit? Yeah, sure, absolutely so. When you when
Speaker 1: you give somebody ten fift twenty years of your life,
Speaker 1: which is exactly what I did and the stuff that
Speaker 1: I did for Vents, and it's many, many things. And
Speaker 1: even when I got to ESPN, I would still get
Speaker 1: phone calls at three or four o'clock in the morning
Speaker 1: asking for favors to get his content on ESPN. And
Speaker 1: I did that. We did that. I put the other
Speaker 1: crew and we got w w E content on ESPN
Speaker 1: every Tuesday night on Sports Center for over two years.
Speaker 1: We started storylines on Sports Center that my bosses at
Speaker 1: ESPN didn't even know we were doing because they weren't
Speaker 1: smart enough to watch the content that we were doing.
Speaker 1: So I did all that. And the reason I did
Speaker 1: that is because they were trying to get a big
Speaker 1: TV contract with Fox, which is what they have right now.
Speaker 1: It was a billion dollars or something like that. But
Speaker 1: they could not have done that if they wouldn't have
Speaker 1: shown Fox. Well, look, we can put our content on
Speaker 1: regular television and it works. So that's just one thing
Speaker 1: I did. I could list ten things. So then when
Speaker 1: I left ESPN because to thank you, So I don't
Speaker 1: even want to cut the bill. I don't even want
Speaker 1: to cut of the billion. I just want them not
Speaker 1: to bounce a check to me. And I've said this
Speaker 1: in another interview, so it's not breaking news. They asked
Speaker 1: me to be a part of the XFL and because
Speaker 1: they wanted a w W E guy to kind of
Speaker 1: oversee what was going on. Well that was when the
Speaker 1: pandemic shut down halfway through the XFL season. Well, I
Speaker 1: gotta check the bounced and when I called them, it
Speaker 1: was all of a sudden, radio silent. Twenty years of
Speaker 1: loyalty and you're gonna bounce a check and not make
Speaker 1: it right. And they still haven't made it right to
Speaker 1: this day. So people say all the time, Oh, coach,
Speaker 1: people say all the time, I would never go back.
Speaker 1: It's wrestling. Everybody goes back. Mark my words. I'll say
Speaker 1: it again right here on your show. I will never
Speaker 1: go back to the w w E. It doesn't matter
Speaker 1: what they do, I won't go back. Did you get
Speaker 1: a lawyer? Did you? Are you? No? Because they filed bankruptcy.
Speaker 1: So when you filed ankruptcy, it's just you sit around
Speaker 1: for years and you might get a percentage. So I
Speaker 1: thought I was the only one that had a direct
Speaker 1: relationship with Vince and the bosses on the w B side.
Speaker 1: So what I got back from them was that's a
Speaker 1: different company. So there's not much we can do. Of course,
Speaker 1: it's say how does of course it's shady, which is
Speaker 1: why I'll never go back. You can't treat people that
Speaker 1: way and then expect them to want to say nice
Speaker 1: things about you, to want to go into business with
Speaker 1: you again. And that's why right now, a lot of
Speaker 1: what they're doing, people are frowning on it. People are
Speaker 1: not watching it because you can't have that reputation and
Speaker 1: treat people the wrong way and then expect them to
Speaker 1: want to be with you long term. So if people
Speaker 1: want to go work for them, they can do it. No,
Speaker 1: ill will. Part of the reason I have my two
Speaker 1: kids this day is because of the w w E.
Speaker 1: But as far as ever working for them again, it
Speaker 1: would be a cold dayan hill before I would do that.
Speaker 1: Wow wow, Well, you know, coach, we can always go
Speaker 1: see them in a different way, you know what I
Speaker 1: mean if they you know, we can go with a
Speaker 1: couple of bad and say, hey, how about chair, how
Speaker 1: about we can do that. We could do that, no doubt.
Speaker 1: I like it. I like it on brand on brand Alright,
Speaker 1: beg let me ask the tough questions. How much steroids
Speaker 1: are in the w w E. Uh. Well, here's the
Speaker 1: thing is that I personally never took any, and a
Speaker 1: lot of guys I know did over the course of time.
Speaker 1: There are certain things, though, be honest, you just don't
Speaker 1: talk about. Right, if you're doing him and the person
Speaker 1: next to you is not, you don't talk to them
Speaker 1: about that. So I personally, I people say, oh, coach,
Speaker 1: you're covering up. It's just nothing that I ever wanted
Speaker 1: to do, because even though I got into the ring,
Speaker 1: the only reason you would ever care about what you
Speaker 1: physically look like is if you had to take your
Speaker 1: shirt off or you were a full time wrestler. I wrestled,
Speaker 1: but I didn't have to worry about that because I
Speaker 1: could talk, and I had value because I could speak,
Speaker 1: so I never had to Did it never happen. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna say that it didn't, but it wasn't something
Speaker 1: I walked around the locker room looking for. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: used to guess based on how small the package was
Speaker 1: in the shorts. See what I have to deal with, Olivia?
Speaker 1: How do you do this on it? If you're ever
Speaker 1: living for a new co host, Olivia, you've got my number.
Speaker 1: Now you've got my number. Now now this is her replaceable.
Speaker 1: He's in that upper. All I'm saying is Triple Triple
Speaker 1: Age has a tiny piece. That's all I'm saying. Then
Speaker 1: I take back what I just said. Come on, let
Speaker 1: me cut you off. I can promise you. I could
Speaker 1: promise you that I would never ask him that. I
Speaker 1: don't know, I would never ask him. So who's a
Speaker 1: current or former, probably more former athlete that you can
Speaker 1: think of right now that could have an impressive career
Speaker 1: at w w UH there's several. I think the obvious
Speaker 1: one is Connor McGregor, but anybody that just blanketly says, oh,
Speaker 1: Connor would be great in the w w E, you
Speaker 1: gotta remember he's only he fought it and a pounds,
Speaker 1: all right, so if you translate him into the world
Speaker 1: of the w w E. There's only been maybe two
Speaker 1: or three guys ever that have been under a hundred
Speaker 1: any pounds that did anything as a pro wrestler because
Speaker 1: they just looked too small. And in the world of
Speaker 1: pro wrestling, you've got to look the part and be
Speaker 1: able to play the part. So Connor would be the
Speaker 1: obvious one, but I don't think he's big enough to
Speaker 1: do it. There are other guys I think that. I
Speaker 1: think Janisna Kompo, even though he isn't like a super
Speaker 1: super tough guy. I think he could be part of
Speaker 1: a group because he's so nice. He's very personable, he
Speaker 1: likes interaction with fans. You've got to like interacting with
Speaker 1: fans to be a w w E superstar, so I
Speaker 1: think he would be absolutely terrific. I think Lebron James
Speaker 1: would be great because he's six nine, He's really strong.
Speaker 1: I think the biggest secret about becoming a w W
Speaker 1: superstar or a e W or professional wrestling in general, guys,
Speaker 1: is that how tough you have to be. When I
Speaker 1: started training, and I was being trained by different people,
Speaker 1: it was the hardest thing I've ever done. You've got
Speaker 1: to be able to learn how to get your ass
Speaker 1: kicked in a professional way. And if you can't bump,
Speaker 1: as we used to say, you can't get into the ring.
Speaker 1: So when you have a fist coming at your face
Speaker 1: and you have to stand there and make sure they
Speaker 1: hit it to within an inch half an inch, that's
Speaker 1: very difficult to learn how to do. So, uh, there's
Speaker 1: a lot of guys I think that physically could do it,
Speaker 1: but you gotta match Olivia the talking with the physical
Speaker 1: aspect to to to make it work. What about I
Speaker 1: think he'd be great. It's funny you mentioned him because
Speaker 1: two thousand, sixteen and seventeen, Uh, as I said, we
Speaker 1: had w W content on Sports Center, so we actually
Speaker 1: took a full desk to WrestleMania and did live Sports
Speaker 1: Center hits from WrestleMania. So Gronk was best friends with
Speaker 1: one of our w W wrestlers at the time, so
Speaker 1: they had him in the Royal Rumble or the Rumble
Speaker 1: Match at WrestleMania on one of those two years. So
Speaker 1: I actually had him on Sports Center right next to
Speaker 1: me the day that he actually jumped the railing and
Speaker 1: went into the ring and helped his buddy win the
Speaker 1: Rumble match at WrestleMania. So he would be perfect because
Speaker 1: he's already done it. Yeah, the way I see, there's
Speaker 1: two aspects to be in a great wrestler. It's the
Speaker 1: charisma part obviously, and then the wrestling part. In your opinion,
Speaker 1: who's the best wrestler, who's the best star? A lot
Speaker 1: of people say Brett Michaels, Who do you think is
Speaker 1: the best technical wrestler we've ever seen in the w
Speaker 1: w F slash w w E. Well, Brett Michaels was
Speaker 1: a singer. I think you're talking about Sean Michael's It's okay, okay,
Speaker 1: it's okay, yeah, sorry, Although Brett, Brett Michaels, I'm sure
Speaker 1: wanted to be a wrestler. He's he's very small, he's
Speaker 1: very small. Wait, way to way to prepare for the interview. Honest,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I got I got ct I'm I'm I
Speaker 1: used to be a big wrestled fan. I just got CTE.
Speaker 1: It's okay, it's okay. We're gonna forgive you. We're gonna
Speaker 1: forgive you. Sean Michaels was fantastic, fantastic, But the best
Speaker 1: wrestler that I was ever around, that I ever saw
Speaker 1: in the ring was Kurt Angle And to me, it's
Speaker 1: not close. And he was a great amateur wrestler, won
Speaker 1: a gold medal in the Olympics, but he made the
Speaker 1: transformation to professional wrestling like nobody physically that we had
Speaker 1: ever seen. Now, what he was able to do was
Speaker 1: to create a character and learn how to be funny,
Speaker 1: because when he first came out, people forget that he
Speaker 1: was local in Pittsburgh and try to be a sportscaster.
Speaker 1: He was terrible. He was awful, and he had just
Speaker 1: turned down a multimillion dollar offer from Vince in the
Speaker 1: w w E straight out of the Olympics because he
Speaker 1: frowned on pro wrestling. Well, then when he came back
Speaker 1: and said, wait a second, maybe I'll try this. Oh
Speaker 1: that that million dollar offer that's gone We've got to
Speaker 1: fifty for you over here, though, if you'd like to
Speaker 1: take that and then earn it. So he had to
Speaker 1: earn it. But as far as the best character and
Speaker 1: star of all time, in my opinion, it's not even close.
Speaker 1: And it's the Rock. Now. I had the the ability
Speaker 1: and the good fortune that for at least two years
Speaker 1: it was me and him doing our little skits on
Speaker 1: the show every single week, and people absolutely loved it.
Speaker 1: He would make fun of me and I would look
Speaker 1: the foil and it was magic. And over the course
Speaker 1: of eight or nine years our relationship changed to where
Speaker 1: in two thousand and seven then he showed up. He
Speaker 1: had been gone for years. He showed up out of
Speaker 1: nowhere to go face to face with me as I
Speaker 1: was making fun of another character we had. So it
Speaker 1: all came full circle. But the Rock, I've taken more
Speaker 1: from The Rock than anybody else I ever worked with,
Speaker 1: as far as as timing, as far as kindness, paying
Speaker 1: it forward, understanding that no matter how big you get,
Speaker 1: that you're not bigger than anybody else. And that's how
Speaker 1: Rock treats everybody is it doesn't matter if you're his
Speaker 1: personal assistant or you're the president of Universal Studios. He's
Speaker 1: gonna treat you the same, and that's what I try
Speaker 1: to do every single day. So, uh, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of guys that have taken stuff from and there's lot
Speaker 1: of guys that are dynamic, But those are the two
Speaker 1: curd angle the Rock. I'm a big fan of the Rock,
Speaker 1: not only as an entrepreneur now, but he was a
Speaker 1: former football player as well. So let's pivot to football
Speaker 1: a little bit. Wild Card Weekend begins this weekend. From
Speaker 1: a betting perspective, I have a theory on this first
Speaker 1: round of the playoffs. So the last four years, the
Speaker 1: first round playoff games have been close, like every year
Speaker 1: besides last year Saints Bears that was a blowout, but
Speaker 1: every other game, I swear to god, I went back
Speaker 1: and look last four years. So if you see a
Speaker 1: big spread like Steelers Chiefs for example, I want to
Speaker 1: say that's like twelve points or something. If you see
Speaker 1: a big spread, do you just go ahead and play
Speaker 1: the underdog in this one? Or what's your approach to
Speaker 1: week one of playoffs? You can do one of two things.
Speaker 1: What we are going to do and and people get
Speaker 1: scared of this, but it's actually very very simple. We
Speaker 1: tease it because the numbers on the underdogs live it.
Speaker 1: You are spot on. The underdogs in recent years have
Speaker 1: cash like eighty five or right. So if you've got
Speaker 1: a number, then what we like to do, though, is
Speaker 1: we tease it and you put it in a two
Speaker 1: team teaser, so you add six points of that number.
Speaker 1: So now if you want to be on the Steelers,
Speaker 1: now you're getting eighteen and a half and you gotta
Speaker 1: win two games, but you're getting eighteen and a half.
Speaker 1: So if you look at several of the games this weekend,
Speaker 1: for example, you've got the forty niners. They are plus three, right,
Speaker 1: so if you tease them now you're getting them at
Speaker 1: plus nine. Now you don't have to worry about that
Speaker 1: very little number, and you can tease them with a
Speaker 1: The Raiders are getting five and a half, you tease
Speaker 1: them now you're getting eleven and a half. So that's
Speaker 1: what we like to do. But anything above five or six,
Speaker 1: we would automatically go to the under the underdog because
Speaker 1: they also play a lot different guys and in the playoffs,
Speaker 1: it's just about getting in and getting out. You don't
Speaker 1: care how much you you you went by. You don't
Speaker 1: care about the stats for the players. All we talked
Speaker 1: about last week was all the incentives that players had
Speaker 1: to make for the last week of the season had
Speaker 1: nothing to do with the playoffs. This week, all that shifts,
Speaker 1: all that changes, and now it's about winning and moving
Speaker 1: on to the second week. So a lot of prop
Speaker 1: bets I would stay away from because they're just not
Speaker 1: going to care. And then I'd also alive it to
Speaker 1: your point, I would go I would look a lot
Speaker 1: at the underdogs this weekend, except for the Chiefs. We
Speaker 1: believe they're going to blow out the Steelers. Have you
Speaker 1: guys put together a teaser that you're really standing behind yet? Oh? Absolutely,
Speaker 1: So we do our big Mega Can you share something
Speaker 1: with us? Yeah? Of course, absolutely so. We do our
Speaker 1: big NFL Mega preview on Tuesday, because then the numbers
Speaker 1: changed throughout the week and it's all about bidding the number.
Speaker 1: Our show is called the early Edge for a reason.
Speaker 1: You want to beat the numbers. So the amount of
Speaker 1: time you get to Sunday and it's no longer five
Speaker 1: and a half, it's down to three and a half.
Speaker 1: Now you've got that number where you wanted it on
Speaker 1: Tuesday or Wednesday, So that's what a lot of novice
Speaker 1: betters don't do. Also, you don't look at a game
Speaker 1: three or four days before you need to do There
Speaker 1: you go, it's all about game day. You can't do that.
Speaker 1: You got all week long. So well, coach, if I
Speaker 1: can interrupt you real quick one second, what must have
Speaker 1: been really tough for you all this year is the
Speaker 1: COVID list situation. You know, so many times we're sitting
Speaker 1: I'm waiting, well, who's even playing? How do you deal
Speaker 1: with that? Well, we have a prop show that we
Speaker 1: do every Friday at two pm Eastern time. So what
Speaker 1: we had to do the last several weeks was we
Speaker 1: had to do an extra prop show on Sunday. And
Speaker 1: we we like to say it at our brand that
Speaker 1: we're here to serve the sports better, no matter the day,
Speaker 1: no matter the time, right, So if the props aren't
Speaker 1: there on Friday, then you gotta give them on Sunday.
Speaker 1: So that's how we would counteract that. Or we also
Speaker 1: like to say some of the best bets that you
Speaker 1: make are the bets that you don't make. You don't
Speaker 1: have to bet on every game, you don't have to
Speaker 1: bet on the prop just because you like it, just
Speaker 1: because you're looking at it. You don't have to do that.
Speaker 1: So staying away sometimes is the right play because you
Speaker 1: just don't know until maybe an hour hour and a
Speaker 1: half before game time, and that's just not enough time
Speaker 1: to put everything together. You know, in football, it's very
Speaker 1: hard to market yourself because it's such a team game.
Speaker 1: There's so many guys on the on the field. You
Speaker 1: gotta helmet on people. You know, football players probably get
Speaker 1: recognized the least, you know, maybe hockey play hockey players less.
Speaker 1: What would you what advice would you give football players
Speaker 1: in the day of social social media to market themselves.
Speaker 1: Get a little bit of that endorsement money. Take a
Speaker 1: page out of the w W E. You know, it's
Speaker 1: like Victor Cruz had his dance. You know, Tom Brady's
Speaker 1: now got his clothing line. Is it just acting crazy
Speaker 1: and taking your uniform off and cheering the crowd like
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown did? I mean, what do you do to
Speaker 1: get that attention when you're a football player. If you're
Speaker 1: not trying to get the attention now, then you're being foolish.
Speaker 1: If you're not trying to push your brand within the brand,
Speaker 1: you're being foolish. I actually sit to the p g
Speaker 1: A tour a whole list of marketing ideas that I
Speaker 1: would do with players golfrid because they're individuals. But you
Speaker 1: can do the same thing in the NFL because the
Speaker 1: one thing that athletes love to do the most guys
Speaker 1: is complain about money they're not making. Oh I deserve this,
Speaker 1: Oh I deserve that. Well, guess what. You can't always
Speaker 1: dictate how much money you're gonna make it on the
Speaker 1: field because it has it has to fit into your
Speaker 1: salary cap right, and you may the team may say
Speaker 1: you're not worth what you think you're worth. So where
Speaker 1: do you go? What do you do? Well, there's a
Speaker 1: whole lot of money over on this side that I
Speaker 1: can make just by doing commercials, doing endorsements. The reason
Speaker 1: Groc is so good it is because he doesn't care
Speaker 1: about making himself look stupid, because he's also laughing every
Speaker 1: single Monday morning when those checks show up for all
Speaker 1: the commercials that he's doing. So what I would tell
Speaker 1: a football player is start using social media to your advantage. Now.
Speaker 1: I know a lot of teams have rules in place,
Speaker 1: but make yourself look likable, give yourself a personality, and
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, these companies they're gonna start coming.
Speaker 1: I promise you that because now companies have realized that
Speaker 1: if they pay somebody fifty hundred thousand dollars, that's a
Speaker 1: lot less than what you'd pay for a TV commercial
Speaker 1: or what you'd pay to advertise over here. So being
Speaker 1: strategic in your marketing, that to me, is the most
Speaker 1: important thing right now, and that's why these companies need
Speaker 1: to hire really smart people that know how to do
Speaker 1: it and help these athletes promote their own brand. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna hire you coach from my social media. Yeah honest,
Speaker 1: you could be doing a fab fund box any day now.
Speaker 1: Sagarar Hair Care, Yeah yeah. I feel like the football
Speaker 1: players got to take their helmets off more, have weird hairstyles,
Speaker 1: like you know, like the Island Boys or you know,
Speaker 1: Dennis Rodman. That's the way to do it. Take the
Speaker 1: helmet off every play. Take the helmet off. Did you
Speaker 1: guys see The Island Boys the other day did a
Speaker 1: cameo video for somebody who was quitting a job. They
Speaker 1: sent it to the They sent it to the bosses.
Speaker 1: They said, get the boss saying by the Island Boys
Speaker 1: I'm like, so you're gonna spend four hundred dollars to
Speaker 1: tell your boss your quitting. That's that sounds like a
Speaker 1: smart business move to me, because they cost four hundred
Speaker 1: dollars to do a cameo video. Okay, he's getting no
Speaker 1: severance nothing that zero zero. Okay, coach, we got a
Speaker 1: little derailed. But I want to hear your teasers for
Speaker 1: this weekend. Oh certainly. So we love the forty nights.
Speaker 1: We're gonna ta them up to uh nine and that
Speaker 1: that's gonna be one side of your teaser. Because there
Speaker 1: is no way on God's green earth that the Dallas
Speaker 1: Cowboys are gonna win by nine. In fact, I think
Speaker 1: they're gonna lose. On the field. San Francisco's defense is
Speaker 1: way too good. They're getting most their their defensive backs back.
Speaker 1: So we'll take the Niners plus the nine. Then if
Speaker 1: you really like it, even though there are certain numbers,
Speaker 1: if you're gonna tease, it has to go through, meaning
Speaker 1: three is one of them, seven is one of them.
Speaker 1: So teasing the Chiefs down to six and a half,
Speaker 1: that's a little more than you want to lay on
Speaker 1: a teaser. But if you believe the Chiefs are gonna
Speaker 1: win by twenty, which is what we do. Then you
Speaker 1: could tease the Chiefs down and put them with we
Speaker 1: like that a lot, or taking the Raiders up to
Speaker 1: eleven and a half, love them, do not touch, I repeat,
Speaker 1: do not touch the Bills side. If you're gonna bet
Speaker 1: a teaser, bet the Patriots. They're getting four, so that
Speaker 1: means you take them up to ten. Can the Bills
Speaker 1: beat the Patriots by ten? I would say no, I
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a three point game. I would say, yes,
Speaker 1: oh you think they can't to my tent, yes, we
Speaker 1: we are talking about that after this with Peter Andrew.
Speaker 1: But what I was going to bring up is every
Speaker 1: victory they have this season and no playoffs are different
Speaker 1: is by double digits. Okay, but what happened against New
Speaker 1: England when they played in Buffalo in Buffalo with don't
Speaker 1: they still had the game plan to get it done.
Speaker 1: And in the playoffs, it's about the game plan. That's
Speaker 1: a throw away game. Three pass attempts. Mac Johns, are
Speaker 1: you are you? Are you a Bills fan? All right?
Speaker 1: So if you if you if you think they win
Speaker 1: by ten, I'll give you three to one. Odds, and
Speaker 1: I'll bet you and I'll take the Patriots plus the tent.
Speaker 1: You're gonna be Sinnamy Venmo on Sunday night, Saturday night.
Speaker 1: If you want to do that, we can do that.
Speaker 1: We show all the time. I'll block your phone number
Speaker 1: by then I won't. I'll pretend. Okay, that's right, four
Speaker 1: days from now, where we're gonna be strangers by that.
Speaker 1: We only take ethereum. You got if you If you
Speaker 1: lose the bet, you gotta pay in ethereum. You know.
Speaker 1: I was about to say, you guys need to do
Speaker 1: a pay per view event. That was a nice little
Speaker 1: tee to tat. I like that. You guys were cutting
Speaker 1: a promo. That's fine, that's fine. We can do this
Speaker 1: all day, all day. Okay. Of the wild card teams,
Speaker 1: who do you think could or as most likely to
Speaker 1: actually make a Super Bowl? If anyone m of the
Speaker 1: wild card team, I would have to go straight to
Speaker 1: the Patriots because when you look at the other teams,
Speaker 1: because I can't pick the Bucks, can't pick the Cowboys,
Speaker 1: can't pick the Chiefs, so they all won their division.
Speaker 1: So I've got to go with either the Patriots, and
Speaker 1: they're the only one that I think or maybe I
Speaker 1: don't even like, or the forty Niners. Let's go Patriots
Speaker 1: and forty Niners. I think they're the only two of
Speaker 1: the I think I'll go. I'll go. Patriots and forty
Speaker 1: Niners are the two on either side of the fence
Speaker 1: that could make the playoffs at a wild card team.
Speaker 1: I don't think they will, but I think they could. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's a good answer. That's a good answer. What about
Speaker 1: a road team this week, and especially with the spread
Speaker 1: kind of that in mind, what road team this week
Speaker 1: has the toughest out the toughest out. Oh, that's a
Speaker 1: great question. The toughest out. I'm gonna go right back
Speaker 1: to the Bills gaming and I think that's gonna be
Speaker 1: the game of the weekend. I really really do, even
Speaker 1: though I teach you about the ten points spread. Uh,
Speaker 1: and the likely outcome would be a tight game. Now
Speaker 1: it could be tann and I'm just teasing you, but
Speaker 1: the likely outcome is these are two division rivals. They
Speaker 1: know each other very very well. They play each other
Speaker 1: twice a year. That matters when you get to the playoffs.
Speaker 1: So I think the toughest out is for the Bills
Speaker 1: on the a f C side, and then I think
Speaker 1: on the NFC side, the toughest out is gonna be
Speaker 1: for the Dallas Cowboys. I I really am bullish on
Speaker 1: the Forts because of how they won last week and
Speaker 1: got I in. They were down seventeen, they come back,
Speaker 1: they end up winning on the field. That was big
Speaker 1: time to me, and I think that shows a lot
Speaker 1: about what they have inside and they never gave up
Speaker 1: in that game, and so that's why they're in the
Speaker 1: playoffs and I think they're gonna play really really well
Speaker 1: this week. Who were you most impressed by this season?
Speaker 1: Which young quarterback? There was so many this year, who
Speaker 1: you most impressed by? That's a great question. I love
Speaker 1: Mac Jones. I the toughest thing about playing for Bill
Speaker 1: Belichick is getting past that first season. We don't remember
Speaker 1: what it was like for Tom Brady act of the
Speaker 1: first season, but now we're seeing it because there's so
Speaker 1: much hyper focus on the Patriots. What are they gonna
Speaker 1: do post Tom Brady? So Mac Jones has been dynamic
Speaker 1: to get his team to the playoffs, to play the
Speaker 1: way that he did at certain times. He had some hiccups,
Speaker 1: but every rookie quarterback is going to have hiccups, and
Speaker 1: then Justin Herbert. I think Justin Herbert got You know,
Speaker 1: he's a he's a second year quarterback, but he got
Speaker 1: hurt by his head coach. And people will not criticize
Speaker 1: Brandon Stalely. He's the future. He's the millennial head coach.
Speaker 1: He's the guy that looks at the numbers and understands
Speaker 1: when to go for two. Really, he left points on
Speaker 1: the field three weeks ago that would have won the game.
Speaker 1: And then if you wouldn't have called time out on
Speaker 1: Sunday night, they would have played for a tie and
Speaker 1: they would have made it into the playoffs. He outthinks
Speaker 1: himself way too much and that hurt his team. And
Speaker 1: now his team is sitting at home. So when you
Speaker 1: look at the other young quarterbacks, whether there's Trey Lance,
Speaker 1: he didn't play all that much. You're looking at Jalen Hurts.
Speaker 1: He's now a full time starter. But what have they
Speaker 1: done in Philly. They're protecting him. They're running the football
Speaker 1: to two or fifty yards a game. So I think,
Speaker 1: really you have to look to Mac Jones as the
Speaker 1: guy as far as young quarterbacks are concerned, that had
Speaker 1: the best year. Yeah, it's incredible in such a shame
Speaker 1: that Justin Herbert is not in the playoffs. I can't
Speaker 1: grab my head around that that that you're coaching really
Speaker 1: messed up. If you have that kind of quarterback and
Speaker 1: he's sitting at home twiddling his thumbs, all the weapons,
Speaker 1: to all those weapons they have a ton, it's really
Speaker 1: really sad. But that's the way it works in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Look at the Colts. They had what four or five
Speaker 1: games this year that they just gave away. And you
Speaker 1: can't go to Jacksonville and lose as a fifteen point
Speaker 1: favorite and lose by fifteen, you deserve to sit at home.
Speaker 1: What is he you think he's doing? Like a moneyball
Speaker 1: thing in football where he's just like he's looking at
Speaker 1: the analytics and saying, on fourth down, this is the
Speaker 1: probability that you know it's and you know what's he doing? Like,
Speaker 1: I mean, you know to to to go for it
Speaker 1: on what do you go for it? On his fourth uh?
Speaker 1: In that game it was on his own eighteen eighteen
Speaker 1: a full yard and he handed it to his five
Speaker 1: seven running back Austin Ekeler, and it was a full yard.
Speaker 1: It wasn't like a short yard. It was a full yard.
Speaker 1: It was the worst play call, and then he always
Speaker 1: defends himself after the game it was the right call
Speaker 1: that this is what the numbers said to do. Well,
Speaker 1: sometimes you gotta have a field for the game. Sometimes
Speaker 1: you gotta look at and say, what does my gut
Speaker 1: tell me to do? And my gut tells me that
Speaker 1: right here and right now, I need these three points
Speaker 1: because I'm gonna get the ball on the other side
Speaker 1: of half time. And then I can add another three
Speaker 1: or seven and now look what I've done. But he
Speaker 1: doesn't do that, and look what's happened the last several weeks.
Speaker 1: So I think he's made a lot of mistakes and
Speaker 1: he deserves to be criticized for those mistakes. Yeah, fun
Speaker 1: money ball, Let the boys play. Let him way on
Speaker 1: the kicker for the charges. Can you imagine for the
Speaker 1: kicker for the Chargers. Can you imagine what his thought
Speaker 1: process is right now? Honest? You know what I've learned
Speaker 1: today from coaches that I'm taller than Austin Neckler, which
Speaker 1: is a real disappointment. He's a very handsome man, and
Speaker 1: I just can't with the height. I can't and that
Speaker 1: I weigh as much as Connor McGregor. Now I am
Speaker 1: five and I was pregnant, but I didn't know his
Speaker 1: wait until he said it. But you still look great.
Speaker 1: You're only seeing you raced up. So thanks so much
Speaker 1: for your time. This has been a lot of fun.
Speaker 1: You brought us a lot of laughs, an incredible insight.
Speaker 1: Thank you. I try it again. Thank you guys for
Speaker 1: asking me. I'm always here and your honesty. Thanks for
Speaker 1: having me. I appreciate it. Thanks guys, have a great year. Well,
Speaker 1: the NFL playoffs are finally here. I cannot wait one
Speaker 1: of my favorite weekends of the year where everything kind
Speaker 1: of comes into focus. So let's not waste any more
Speaker 1: time and bring in bet MGM betting expert, the one
Speaker 1: and only Mr Peter Andrew Peter. Thanks for joining us again.
Speaker 1: I'm in a better mood now that the Niners one
Speaker 1: on Sunday. I love it. Okay, let's get into some
Speaker 1: of these super wild card games, which I just love
Speaker 1: the title. Can't say it enough. Go ahead, throw out
Speaker 1: your games you got and you honest and I will
Speaker 1: each make a pick for our punishment picks. Punishment picks. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I'm trying to pick the ones that maybe you're
Speaker 1: steaming off the cuff a little bit more competitive. I
Speaker 1: think first one is a fun one. On Saturday, you
Speaker 1: got triots at the Bills, Bills minus four and a half.
Speaker 1: You've seen them split the season series, so I think
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a fun one. It's gonna be cold
Speaker 1: in in Buffalo. So what do you guys look there
Speaker 1: on that one? Yanny you start? Yeah, I'm going with
Speaker 1: the Bills. I mean, hats off, hats off to the
Speaker 1: Patriots for making it look so good for a rookie
Speaker 1: quarterback in that Belichick system. But I'm going with the Bills.
Speaker 1: He's not there yet. Mac Jones isn't there yet. Going
Speaker 1: with Josh Allen, Baby, yeah, Mac Jones has not looked good.
Speaker 1: I think he's three and two and his last five
Speaker 1: starts in Josh Allen, I mean little Jekyll and Hide
Speaker 1: here with this Bills team. But when the Bills win,
Speaker 1: they win big. Every victory this year has been by
Speaker 1: double digits. So I like the Bills. What's the line,
Speaker 1: pete four and a half? Oh, take it, definitely take
Speaker 1: it now. The Pat's defense is the only thing keeping
Speaker 1: them in games. They allow just eighteen points per games,
Speaker 1: so maybe stay away from that over But I like
Speaker 1: the Bills and I like them big yeah. I agree
Speaker 1: with you as they're on that one. Next one is
Speaker 1: the one that's near and dear to my heart. Niners
Speaker 1: at the Cowboys. Cowboys are minus three, so three point
Speaker 1: favorite Niners coming off a very emotional win and then
Speaker 1: Cowboys were able to wrap it up with the blowout
Speaker 1: win against the Eagles on a week team M yeah,
Speaker 1: I think, I think I like the Niners. Here's why.
Speaker 1: These teams that are the wild card teams, they're dangerous.
Speaker 1: They they're playing with house money, right. They didn't think
Speaker 1: they'd make it, really, I mean, who knows what they thought.
Speaker 1: But I just think this is gonna be good. It
Speaker 1: relies on the broken, busted up hand of Jimmy g
Speaker 1: When he doesn't throw a pick, they win. They have
Speaker 1: not lost a game when he doesn't throw a pick.
Speaker 1: But Dallas takes the ball away. That's their m O.
Speaker 1: This defense is really good and like we saw in
Speaker 1: Dallas's last game of the season, Wow, when they are
Speaker 1: clicking on offense, they are scary. So I don't know
Speaker 1: if this were in San Francisco, maybe a different story.
Speaker 1: So I take it back. I'm taking Dallas. I convinced myself.
Speaker 1: Flip flop. I mean, you should run for office, Olivia.
Speaker 1: I mean that was what they call a flip flop
Speaker 1: in the political world. Because I'm definitely going with Dallas.
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe you were going with the Niners. I
Speaker 1: was about to say they should start calling me the
Speaker 1: betting expert on the show because I win so much.
Speaker 1: So I'm going, obviously with the Cowboys. They're a juggernaut.
Speaker 1: I think they're a real contender. They could win it all.
Speaker 1: The forty Niners just you know, they're here, They're there,
Speaker 1: They're nowhere. It's any game, anything could happen. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be a bad game. They're gonna get blown out by
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Put a lot of money in the Cowboys, guys,
Speaker 1: a lot of it all. I'll say, roll wide receiver one,
Speaker 1: running back one, and now QB one with a touchdown
Speaker 1: pass last week. So I'll tell you guys, be careful
Speaker 1: for that next week. I think he's going to be
Speaker 1: the dual threat that that is the difference maker last game.
Speaker 1: This is always fun. The first time Monday Night football
Speaker 1: for the playoffs for Super World Card weekend Cardinals Rams.
Speaker 1: They were fighting to the end for the division. Rams
Speaker 1: are four and a half point favorite at home, and
Speaker 1: so far, what do you guys like there? Well, we
Speaker 1: have to disagree on this one, honest, because we're in
Speaker 1: agreement so far. I'm gonna take the Rams. And here's why.
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford's looking horrible and in general, it's hard to
Speaker 1: kind of cheer for the Rams. But talent wise, they
Speaker 1: are so stacked and Cardinals aren't getting hot back this week,
Speaker 1: are they? I don't think so. I don't think so either.
Speaker 1: That'd be a difference maker, though, but I've got to
Speaker 1: take the Rams at home. Although the Cardinals are better
Speaker 1: on the road. I think they're eight and one on
Speaker 1: the road or something. But yeah, I'm going with the Rams.
Speaker 1: I really like their mid season editions in von Miller
Speaker 1: and O b J. I feel like that's made them
Speaker 1: way more complete and competitive, so I think they'll really
Speaker 1: show up for this wild card game. Well this is
Speaker 1: appropriate because I'm not just disagreeing because we have to.
Speaker 1: I like their mid season addition to Miller, but as
Speaker 1: a former Giant fan, I gotta say, oh b J
Speaker 1: likes to drop passes in the playoffs, big moments, the
Speaker 1: passes just get dropped, mark my words, big plays. O.
Speaker 1: B J is gonna drop some big passes. He's overly emotional.
Speaker 1: I'm going the other way, baby. We're going with the
Speaker 1: squeak at quarterback. He's gonna run like little Mighty Mouse
Speaker 1: all over the field. The Cardinals are taking this. Put
Speaker 1: big money on Yanni's picks and you'll win money. Baby.
Speaker 1: I'm the betting expert at bet MGM. I think interesting game.
Speaker 1: I would say it's a three point game either way,
Speaker 1: so maybe plus four and a half is the right way.
Speaker 1: What I will say is potentially next week Stafford up
Speaker 1: first Rogers Davante Adams. I think that's a pretty intriguing
Speaker 1: matchup if you like divisional round and it'd be a
Speaker 1: fun one up in Lambeau. Yeah. Yeah, these are some
Speaker 1: close ones here, so it'll be a fun first weekend
Speaker 1: and obviously a couple more games, maybe a little bit
Speaker 1: potential to be a blowout, but it's gonna be a
Speaker 1: great weekend. I'm gonna be watching him from Cobble Mexico,
Speaker 1: so I'm excited. Oh, we need more information on that
Speaker 1: next the week before we go, we have to pay
Speaker 1: off our punishment pick. And it was supposed to be
Speaker 1: you know, New Year knew me like everyone I saw
Speaker 1: in the gym this week. But once again, Janice, you're
Speaker 1: the winner. You crushed me picking the Raiders and the
Speaker 1: Niners correctly. I feel like Brandon Staley, completely heartbroken and
Speaker 1: wanting to call a time out. But here we go.
Speaker 1: I have to read the outro. This is what I get.
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's why they paid me the big bucks,
Speaker 1: I guess. Okay, thanks for listening, everybody. This is miss
Speaker 1: Preggers herself the Georgia peech. Alam oh h d. But
Speaker 1: let me tell you, Georgia winning the national title took
Speaker 1: me back, y'all. It took me back to a simpler
Speaker 1: time when your girl was guzzling down vodka shots and
Speaker 1: acting real SUTs on the weekends. That's right, your girl
Speaker 1: loved party and I got the rap sheet to prove it.
Speaker 1: I was arrested. Okay, now I can't read this on
Speaker 1: I was never arrested. Just tell us your story, tell
Speaker 1: us your story. It's okay, you were four. I hope
Speaker 1: we have no new listeners who were so confused. Right now,
Speaker 1: I was arrested, for punching a girl in the mouth
Speaker 1: for talking to my man once. My dad had bailed
Speaker 1: me out of jail for robbing a rite aid my
Speaker 1: sophomore year. It wasn't my fault. I was dating a
Speaker 1: towny named Dale and he needed some boxles. What's that boxes?
Speaker 1: It was your body and Clyde face. Oh, I was
Speaker 1: a natural. Didn't have to pistol, whip the cashier or nothing.
Speaker 1: We were in and out. Well, I'm not allowed back
Speaker 1: on campus, and my family had a pulse and strings
Speaker 1: to get my record expunged. But it was worth it, y'all.
Speaker 1: How's Dale now, you ask, Well, let's just stay. Last
Speaker 1: time I heard he was in prison for sticking up
Speaker 1: a cracker barrel and selling bath salts. We took different roads,
Speaker 1: but we had our time anyway. They used to call
Speaker 1: me Olivia the Gremlin back then because I was all
Speaker 1: nice and sweet during the day, but at night, you
Speaker 1: pour a little alcohol in me and you could find
Speaker 1: me drunk on the quad squat being a four am.
Speaker 1: I'll bring an amazing grace to the girl who did
Speaker 1: my homework in exchange for me saying hello to her
Speaker 1: in front of my cool friends. I'll always be grateful.
Speaker 1: I can't remember your loser name, but you made college
Speaker 1: fun you too, Dale Bulldog for life, by y'all, you're
Speaker 1: a wild girl, Olivia. I'm glad you got out of
Speaker 1: that face. What a wild face? How week I say?
Speaker 1: I hope my mom isn't listening to this. Well, my
Speaker 1: mom is currently standing over my shoulder and just heard
Speaker 1: that whole thing. So thanks a lot you honest. I'm
Speaker 1: a twenty girl, grounded, pregnant woman. But that's a fresh show.
Speaker 1: This week takes everyone for joining. Make sure you follow
Speaker 1: app at MGM on Twitter, Instagram and TikTok. That's new.
Speaker 1: We're doing a lot of fun one bet videos on
Speaker 1: TikTok and I really really hope I went next week
Speaker 1: because I can't keep my career going much longer with
Speaker 1: those sign offs. Thanks y'all. Piece
