Speaker 1: Welcome to Good Calls with Dean Blandino, a production of
Speaker 1: I Heart Radio. Hey, What's up? Another episode of Good Calls.
Speaker 1: I'm Dean Blandino. Joining me is always Travis. What episode is?
Speaker 1: It is? Travis Hanson? What episode twentie. That means we've
Speaker 1: made it through half the year, half the years, six months,
Speaker 1: Travis Hanson, no missed episodes and that and that was
Speaker 1: the least awkward intro that Travis has ever had. So
Speaker 1: I think I've maybe ask him a question, ask him
Speaker 1: a question to which I know the answer. Yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: because because if I ask your questions you don't know
Speaker 1: the answer. I'm gonna I'm gonna take this disrespect. Joe
Speaker 1: Madrid on audio, what's going on? Award? It sounds it
Speaker 1: sounds good and joining us. I'm really excited because we've
Speaker 1: got our special guest. And not a lot of people
Speaker 1: are gonna know who this special. They don't get too excited,
Speaker 1: but we know him. He works with us in the studio.
Speaker 1: Mr Scott Tamill, Scott, what's up? It's an honor to
Speaker 1: be here. So I want to give a little back
Speaker 1: because I want to give a little background on Scott
Speaker 1: Scott works with us in the studio on game days
Speaker 1: for college football, NFL football, XFL football, and we spend
Speaker 1: a ton of time together. And Scott is a wealth
Speaker 1: of knowledge. Scott knows a lot of things. I'm not sure,
Speaker 1: like how transferable his knowledge is to like, actually I
Speaker 1: don't know, like jobs and stuff and and being successful.
Speaker 1: But he knows a ton of stuff and I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna be really good addition to the podcast. So
Speaker 1: I just want to put Joe and Travis on. Notice
Speaker 1: that if Scott does really well, this is not a
Speaker 1: four man booth. This is a three person booth. So
Speaker 1: if Scott does really well, one of you could be expendable.
Speaker 1: Just saying, well, we're always expendable. You You've said it
Speaker 1: from day one with it with us. Uh, you know,
Speaker 1: we're the only one that's not replaceable. Here's you. I'm
Speaker 1: not even gonna coming on because I know it ain't
Speaker 1: gonna be me. So well, I'm just excited, you know,
Speaker 1: to take over for whoever. And but you did. Dean
Speaker 1: is right. Uh, we spent I probably spend more time
Speaker 1: with you guys than through the football seasons than basically
Speaker 1: anyone in my family, any of my friends without a
Speaker 1: doubt a second. It's disturbing. Well, we spend hours upon
Speaker 1: hours upon hours um during football season together in the
Speaker 1: studio and uh, but let's get into it. Let's talk
Speaker 1: about forget about football for a second. Let's go Deonte Wilder,
Speaker 1: Tyson Fury. We talked about it last week the fight,
Speaker 1: but now we're getting and I want to talk about
Speaker 1: the rules of Now we're getting the the excuses. Now
Speaker 1: we're getting Wilder. He basically he's got the rematch clause.
Speaker 1: He's gonna take the rematch, So we're gonna get Tyson
Speaker 1: Wilder Fury Wilder three. But one of the reasons, he said,
Speaker 1: because we said he looked like he was drunk, like
Speaker 1: his legs weren't under him. He looked like he was drunk.
Speaker 1: And one of the reasons he said his legs weren't
Speaker 1: underneath him is because his costume was too heavy. It
Speaker 1: was forty pounds. He had it on too long before
Speaker 1: the fight. Is that a legitimate excuse? And what are
Speaker 1: the rules if you have something legit you lose the fight.
Speaker 1: What are the rules to making up making an excuse
Speaker 1: like that? There's none. I think there's no excuse. But
Speaker 1: that's the silliest one I've ever heard. You chose to
Speaker 1: wear that. We we talked about this last week. You
Speaker 1: come out in the Tyson cut off hoodie and just
Speaker 1: go you're wearing a cut off that. I did that
Speaker 1: on purpose. So it's always funny when fighters, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's ridiculous. The entrances were ridiculous. He had an entire
Speaker 1: rap song that that he came out to, So that's
Speaker 1: on him. But I always loved when fighters are like, hey,
Speaker 1: you know he wanted. I don't want to make excuses,
Speaker 1: but her and hard by any in training camp, how
Speaker 1: they announced did he bust his ears? Rum? That was
Speaker 1: they did not know? They say. I think they said
Speaker 1: it was like a seven centimeter cut on his ear
Speaker 1: or something. That's why there was blood. Then it looked
Speaker 1: like it was coming from a busted here, Jim, and
Speaker 1: that's seven centimeters information. That's Travis. That's your job. So
Speaker 1: one nothing, one nothing for Joe. So okay, So okay,
Speaker 1: you lose the fight. Let's say you go into you
Speaker 1: choose to go into the fight. I don't care if
Speaker 1: it's boxing, m m A, whatever it is. And you
Speaker 1: choose to go into the fight and you know you
Speaker 1: have an injury. I would imagine, Look, I've never fought professionally,
Speaker 1: but I would imagine you get nicked up in getting
Speaker 1: ready for the fight, like you get you get banged up.
Speaker 1: Everybody has bumps and bruises. But if you're fit to fight,
Speaker 1: you can't use that as an excuse if you lose, period,
Speaker 1: if you step in the ring, you're saying, I'm I'm
Speaker 1: healthy enough to voight. It's like NFL players. Every time
Speaker 1: you step on the field, you are deemed as ready
Speaker 1: to play like that's that's why you have injury reports.
Speaker 1: If you don't show up on the report, you you
Speaker 1: aren't injured. We talked about it before, but off air,
Speaker 1: I guess, but I do think it is a funny,
Speaker 1: all time great excuse because it's just like I'm too
Speaker 1: exhausted this outfit that I chose to wear, and then
Speaker 1: his opponent comes in being carried like furious, like furious,
Speaker 1: much fresher fighter coming in being carried, and then and
Speaker 1: then and then while there has to wear the the
Speaker 1: the big costume or whatever. But you do you you
Speaker 1: don't want to be cold coming into the fight. That's
Speaker 1: why I don't think I don't agree with furies entrance either,
Speaker 1: Like you should be warmed up in the end the
Speaker 1: dressing room and get a good sweat going, and just
Speaker 1: sitting on that throne is gonna you're gonna get cold.
Speaker 1: You're you're gonna stop sweating. And that could be an
Speaker 1: issue too, but obviously it didn't affect fury Um. Next
Speaker 1: time I getting fight, I'm gonna get carried in my bed.
Speaker 1: I'm still sleeping. Travis did did we have? We talked
Speaker 1: about the time Travis karate kick like dropkick the guy
Speaker 1: on the I didn't drop kick a guy? Okay, can
Speaker 1: we talk about that story? So? I didn't want to,
Speaker 1: but I guess you can. Good, Good Travis. So Travis,
Speaker 1: it was a flying leg kick by the way, Wow,
Speaker 1: was it a sidekicker around house? No? It was No,
Speaker 1: it was just straight on like I think it was
Speaker 1: a flying like sidekick like it was. It was from
Speaker 1: what he described. And this is Travis. This is going
Speaker 1: back Travis. As we all know, the Caucasian rattlesnake. You
Speaker 1: roll them up, you're gonna get You're gonna get bitten.
Speaker 1: And so so he he was in his crazy days
Speaker 1: running around Santa Monica, my single Days in Santa Monic
Speaker 1: Days s w G S. We're running around in Santa
Speaker 1: Monica and some guy like got a little maude and
Speaker 1: and Travis ran like there was like the guy. I
Speaker 1: guess they were cross. Travis was leaving the bar, the
Speaker 1: guy was walking the other way. Something was said rattlesnake.
Speaker 1: It just clicked. He was liked and and so Travis
Speaker 1: ran half the street, like half a block and karate
Speaker 1: kicked this guy in the chest. But the best part
Speaker 1: he said, leg in the chest. In the chest there
Speaker 1: was no but like no, no, like it's different. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you have to tell him where leg kick is. But
Speaker 1: it's not like you all kicks are with your legs,
Speaker 1: but you you Okay, it was a flying side just think,
Speaker 1: just think lou King. Oh got it. So there was
Speaker 1: a sidekick. Yeah, it was a psydn and flying. But
Speaker 1: the best part of the story is, Travis, what what
Speaker 1: footwear were you? I was wearing flip flops because I
Speaker 1: live in I was living in Santa Monica at the time.
Speaker 1: Did you imagine like if I was staying there the
Speaker 1: guy in flip flops, I'd be like, dude, Joe, the
Speaker 1: guy in flipflops is running? What is he he's going?
Speaker 1: He's coming at us? Like, what is he? Dropkick to
Speaker 1: the chest? How did that even? How did you even
Speaker 1: maneuver that with with Well, you guys underestimated my athleticism
Speaker 1: first off, and um, I probably and and when you
Speaker 1: know we talked about a few weeks ago. You know,
Speaker 1: you get to that point where you know you're a
Speaker 1: fun guy you're drinking with and then you do you
Speaker 1: get to that next level and you're not so much
Speaker 1: fun Like I had hit that next threshold and and
Speaker 1: gone over it. So so you were at you were
Speaker 1: beyond that the good range? Yeah, yeah, point eight to
Speaker 1: point what did we say? Point eight? Like point one two?
Speaker 1: We do have a yes, we have we actually have
Speaker 1: a rating system. I was outside that the funds. Do
Speaker 1: you think he was as as now an older gentleman
Speaker 1: and not not young and party guy anymore? You're now
Speaker 1: just a regular dad, good dude? Did did did the
Speaker 1: kick warrant the behavior? Did he deserve it? If you have,
Speaker 1: if you have to do it again, well, so I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say no he didn't, because you know, cooler heads
Speaker 1: prevail obviously as you get old or and you understand
Speaker 1: that those actions are not an okay thing. But at
Speaker 1: the time, it was like we were talking to these
Speaker 1: girls like his friends, and we had invited him over
Speaker 1: and they were all cool to come over. So you know,
Speaker 1: there's all we were hiding. Yeah, well they they weren't
Speaker 1: their girlfriends, they were just their friends. Probably should have
Speaker 1: been kiding, probably, yes, Wow, but wait, wait guys, Travis, Joe, quiet, Scott,
Speaker 1: you have something to say. Well, no, I just wanted
Speaker 1: to for all our l A listeners, you know where
Speaker 1: did this happen? Where? Where is at the Gaslight the
Speaker 1: greatest karaoke bar of all time? Yeah, so if you're
Speaker 1: in Santa Monica, you might still you know, you can
Speaker 1: still hear the ghosts of Travis. There's still a crack
Speaker 1: in the ground where a little plaque there where Travis
Speaker 1: Travis drop kicked the guy on the south end of Wilshire.
Speaker 1: So let's let's shift gears and let's talk a little XFL.
Speaker 1: But the biggest news for the XFL, at least personally,
Speaker 1: was the fact that we've been on this podcast. I'm
Speaker 1: the head of officiating for the XFL. We've been talking
Speaker 1: about the XFL for for not just the three weeks
Speaker 1: of the regular season, but leading up to the season,
Speaker 1: the rules, everything else in my favorite team. Joe finally
Speaker 1: watched his first XFL action on on Sunday, and Joe
Speaker 1: tell us it was the It was the Dallas Houston game,
Speaker 1: and tell us your your impressions, Like, what was it like? You?
Speaker 1: You showed up and you, I mean, you got to
Speaker 1: see some stuff. I was impressed. I actually enjoyed it. Definitely,
Speaker 1: two of the better teams in the league. I am
Speaker 1: now a Houston fan. I don't remember. Man, they're four
Speaker 1: no four now undefeated Roughnecks. You know what winners like? Winners?
Speaker 1: How do I do it? Imagine? Imagine, imagine they go
Speaker 1: undefeated and then the XFL Championship is in Houston and
Speaker 1: they win, and then we have our and then you
Speaker 1: have basically and in forty years there and they're celebrating
Speaker 1: every time an XTFL team loses their first game. So
Speaker 1: they're the seventy two Dolphins, Ughnecks. You know you're gonna
Speaker 1: be getting you'll be getting that text about them tickets.
Speaker 1: I think that's is it called what's it called XFL Championship?
Speaker 1: Is the championship game at this point, we don't. We
Speaker 1: don't even know what the trophy. Well, my suggestion for
Speaker 1: the trophy, and I and I did, I did kind
Speaker 1: of raise this up the flagpole, and I and I
Speaker 1: really feel like we should do it is I said,
Speaker 1: we should come up with an XFL trophy that's like
Speaker 1: the Stanley Cup. And and so when the team wins,
Speaker 1: the names get etched on it and you get to
Speaker 1: keep it. And and so that it says two things.
Speaker 1: It's creating a tradition. It's saying the league is going
Speaker 1: to be around for a long time. Come up with
Speaker 1: a name for it. I don't know, the Vince Cup,
Speaker 1: whatever it is. And and every team gets it when
Speaker 1: you win every year. That's my could be a Gatorade jug.
Speaker 1: Why not a championship belt? I mean, like w w
Speaker 1: be actually that I do like that. Uh. And then
Speaker 1: I do want to say that I think the XFL
Speaker 1: Championship m v P Trophy should be called the He
Speaker 1: Hate Me Trophy. That Scott, but we we are trying
Speaker 1: to distance ourselves from XFL. Um So we're trying to
Speaker 1: just you know, we weren't talking even we were talking
Speaker 1: about that is the XFL doesn't have cheerleaders this go around,
Speaker 1: and we're talking about NFL teams that don't. We we
Speaker 1: ran through all the NFL teams that don't have cheerleaders,
Speaker 1: and there's not many. There's like four, I think, so
Speaker 1: the Steelers, the Giants, um Packers used like local high
Speaker 1: school cheerleaders. The Bears. Was that it? Well, I just
Speaker 1: looked up and according to this older article, Buffalo Bills,
Speaker 1: and I thought they do though they were the Buffalo Jills. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then the Browns, the Browns don't. We did say, okay,
Speaker 1: so then that there's if the Bills do. Yet again
Speaker 1: the Browns disappoint us and let us down if they don't.
Speaker 1: Travis really, is that really? Traviss is not? If you're
Speaker 1: gonna you know what, it's to nothing now that Scott
Speaker 1: is really looking to Travis's spot right now, Joe, you're good?
Speaker 1: Right now? What he's busy texting? What are we gonna have?
Speaker 1: Scott's nickname gonna be? What? Well we have the Caucasian
Speaker 1: Rattlesnake's got gonna be the Asian rattlesnake? Or what's going
Speaker 1: When are you get you know, I'll be on a
Speaker 1: few times. Then yeah, well, let it. Let it happen organically,
Speaker 1: like the Caucasian rattlesnake happened organically. Don't don't just you know,
Speaker 1: it's just one of my favorite parts of the show
Speaker 1: is when I hear the words Caucasian rattles, it is
Speaker 1: it's great so fans. But I'm excited that Joe finally
Speaker 1: watched and he did. Like they were. It was a
Speaker 1: good weekend. Like there were good games. Obviously, those are
Speaker 1: two of the better teams, the Roughnecks and the Renegades.
Speaker 1: UM St. Louis looks really good, and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm excited New York l A played a close game.
Speaker 1: It was seventeen fourteen, the Dragon St. Louis, UM Seattle
Speaker 1: game was close, one score game. Houston Dallas one score game.
Speaker 1: I mean, these were good, good games, and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm excited about, um where where the league can go?
Speaker 1: Um I do. I do want to talk about just
Speaker 1: one rule that came up, and you know a lot
Speaker 1: of people were talking about on social media and I
Speaker 1: know the coaches. So in the XFL, obviously the kickoff
Speaker 1: is different and you have the kicker from the thirty
Speaker 1: yard line and then everybody else is on the other
Speaker 1: side of the field, kicking team at the thirty five,
Speaker 1: return team at the thirty, and then one returner back deep.
Speaker 1: There were penalties after the try, so there was a
Speaker 1: try and then there was a dead ball personal foul
Speaker 1: that got carried over to the kickoff, and so the
Speaker 1: the team that scored was kicking off from not the
Speaker 1: thirty but the forty five. And people were saying, especially
Speaker 1: on the broadcast, they were saying, well, that's not really
Speaker 1: an advantage. It actually disadvantages the the kicking team because
Speaker 1: the rules stay the same for the touchback. And I disagree.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a disadvantage because now you're closer
Speaker 1: to the goal line, you can you can line drive
Speaker 1: that thing, hit it in the field of play, get
Speaker 1: it into the end zone, and that's a touch back
Speaker 1: at the fifteen. You have a much better chance of
Speaker 1: doing that when you kick from fifteen yards up than
Speaker 1: you do from the thirty. The other thing is you
Speaker 1: could always go on side. Now if you don't get
Speaker 1: the onside kick, the field position isn't as bad. And
Speaker 1: the thing is, even if you kick it out of bounds,
Speaker 1: that ball is not gonna go to the forty five
Speaker 1: yard line, it's gonna go fifteen yards from the spot
Speaker 1: of the kicks. So if I'm kicking from my own
Speaker 1: forty five and I kick it out of bounds, it's
Speaker 1: still gonna go to the return team's forty. So I
Speaker 1: don't think there there's no advantage to that. But it
Speaker 1: was interesting to hear that conversation. Um, and that's like
Speaker 1: really like very in the weeds rules. Do you guys
Speaker 1: understand what I'm saying, because I'm looking at blank faces
Speaker 1: right now. I just saw for the first them. Wow,
Speaker 1: that's right. Well, Joe, you've watched six minutes of l
Speaker 1: and I loved listen. If you haven't seen an XFL game,
Speaker 1: check it out. It's pretty fun. He's selling it. I'm
Speaker 1: just saying it's to me. To me, it's a very
Speaker 1: very dense rule. It's hard to understand, and and our
Speaker 1: our commentators mix it up and we explained it to
Speaker 1: them during during last week's broadcast, and and to me
Speaker 1: it's still is kind of confusing, and and it just
Speaker 1: takes some time. You know, when you see it a
Speaker 1: few more times, like then you start to understand it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well again, this is where we're four weeks and so
Speaker 1: we've played sixteen games. We haven't seen the rule though
Speaker 1: A ton though, No, we haven't seen it. Alright, let's
Speaker 1: take a break and we come back. We're gonna talk
Speaker 1: college football, UM rules changes, NFL potential rules changes, and
Speaker 1: uh things that they took place at the combine. Next
Speaker 1: on the car. Alright, we're back on good calls. And
Speaker 1: it was interesting during the break, Travis was giving Joe
Speaker 1: audio advice because he already knows that he's kind of
Speaker 1: on the outs for the show and he's trying to
Speaker 1: move in. Scott's gonna take over for Travis, and Travis
Speaker 1: is gonna try to slide in for Joe, and he's like,
Speaker 1: you know, Scott's mike sounds hollow. He's using like all
Speaker 1: like cool audio words because he's worked in TV and that,
Speaker 1: and he's like, well, you know, it's uh, you know
Speaker 1: what was the other word you use, like just hollow,
Speaker 1: hollow like other I'm not sure what I said. I
Speaker 1: don't remember most of the things I say after I
Speaker 1: say that. But alright, so forget let's go. Let's go
Speaker 1: college football. So this past this past week UM in Indianapolis,
Speaker 1: the college football they have a competition committee and a
Speaker 1: rules committee. They met. They talked about different potential rules changes.
Speaker 1: The college rules change cycle to College and SEA is
Speaker 1: different than the NFL. ENOL they can change rules every year.
Speaker 1: College they can change rules every other year. Okay, the
Speaker 1: only rules that can change on a yearly basis are
Speaker 1: something that involves players safety or if it if it
Speaker 1: speaks to the integrity of the game. It has to
Speaker 1: be something significant. So this is a rules change year,
Speaker 1: not a lot on the on the the the agenda,
Speaker 1: which is good. They're not going to make a ton
Speaker 1: of changes. One of the more interesting potential changes because
Speaker 1: the rules committee will will then propose a change, but
Speaker 1: it has to be it has to be then um
Speaker 1: agreed upon by what's called the Playing Rule Oversight Panel,
Speaker 1: which which that process happens in April. It's made up
Speaker 1: of mostly commissioners from the different conference and they have
Speaker 1: to they have to basically pass those rules. One of
Speaker 1: the things that they are they are going to propose
Speaker 1: is if a player is objected for targeting UM, they
Speaker 1: no longer have to leave the field. They can stay
Speaker 1: on the bench with their teammates and they don't have
Speaker 1: to go to the locker room and UH like fighting
Speaker 1: something like that. Different. You go to the locker room,
Speaker 1: they are they would actually say the player has been ejected.
Speaker 1: Meeting ejected, you're out targeting. They will say the player
Speaker 1: has been disqualified. But one of the analogies that was
Speaker 1: used during the meetings is that it's like the player
Speaker 1: who gets the fifth foul and basketball right there, they're
Speaker 1: out of the game, but they don't go to the
Speaker 1: locker room, right they don't go to the locker room.
Speaker 1: They stay on the bench. And so the player will
Speaker 1: be able to stay um on the bench, take their helmet,
Speaker 1: can't obviously can't go back in the game. But what
Speaker 1: do you guys think about that? What's like, why does
Speaker 1: it matter? Is it that big of a deal? It?
Speaker 1: You know what it's it. This has been a topic
Speaker 1: that has been a big deal. They they they say
Speaker 1: that the it singles out, it singles out the kid um.
Speaker 1: They call it, like, for lack of a better term,
Speaker 1: the walk of shame, like the player lead eaves the
Speaker 1: field that cameras are on him, especially if you're in
Speaker 1: a visiting at a visiting the visitor um at an
Speaker 1: opponent's school. And uh, and so the reaction from the
Speaker 1: crowd and things like that. And I think the other
Speaker 1: thing and one of the one of the best reasons
Speaker 1: I heard there was a player in the meetings. Um
Speaker 1: his name Fields is his last name. He's a safety
Speaker 1: for Oklahoma, and he said that while he had never
Speaker 1: been ejected for targeting, his teammates have. And he said
Speaker 1: it's hard, especially when you're on the road, that literally
Speaker 1: you just cost your team fifteen yards. You just got
Speaker 1: thrown out of the game, and you go to an
Speaker 1: empty locker room by yourself and uh, and rather just
Speaker 1: be on the sideline with your teammates, they can kind
Speaker 1: of keep you, keep you in good spirits. And I
Speaker 1: just look, is is it a big deal? No, it
Speaker 1: sounds like this sounds like very millennial, like everyone all
Speaker 1: these kids have been getting trophy their whole life. I
Speaker 1: guess that means there's no penalty box. We're not gonna
Speaker 1: incorporate that either, right. I think it's good because it's
Speaker 1: weird to be objected like for sometimes these hits are
Speaker 1: clearly not like malicious, So you're just like, you have
Speaker 1: the football plays for sure, exactly, so why not just
Speaker 1: let them stay on the sideline. It's not hurting anyone.
Speaker 1: And that's the key that a lot of those those
Speaker 1: fouls are not malicious and uh and to throw the
Speaker 1: player and put him in a you know, in an
Speaker 1: empty locker room, it just feels harsh. I know, Joe, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's very millennial and and this is a feel good rule.
Speaker 1: But I agree with Scott. So now it's Joe, you
Speaker 1: have one day trashy of three. You can't ask my
Speaker 1: opinion and it's your opinion is it's not an opinion,
Speaker 1: it's not right or wrong, it's just my actual opinion
Speaker 1: was I don't think it's that pig of a deal
Speaker 1: either way. But then you started giving your reasoning like well,
Speaker 1: it's going to root its feelings luck to the luck room.
Speaker 1: Watched because his mom to meet him in the locker room.
Speaker 1: When you watch him, look at the you're going to
Speaker 1: go see the sports psychologists. Now, defense, you're trying to
Speaker 1: save our jobs. Here, get the Caucasian rattlesnake and the
Speaker 1: other guy that if you if you look at his outfit,
Speaker 1: funny he's like in the tank for for a half hour,
Speaker 1: like would you which roll on my outfit? Why are
Speaker 1: you making that face? And now you're how can you
Speaker 1: have talked about my outfit. You're a tough guy with
Speaker 1: you know, I'm feeling well. I don't run up people
Speaker 1: and hit them as hard as I can for a living.
Speaker 1: Neither do these kids. They're they're going on it for free.
Speaker 1: They're doing it for free and everybody, you know. So
Speaker 1: the one, the one I wanted to talk about, though,
Speaker 1: is the Clemson kid who did you get thrown out?
Speaker 1: He's like the leader on their their defensive linebacker. So
Speaker 1: to keep him on the sideline it helps the team,
Speaker 1: you know, because he maybe can help the kids with
Speaker 1: the call, the other his teammates with the calls and
Speaker 1: looking at what he sees on the field. So I'm
Speaker 1: okay with the guy staying on terms of negative until
Speaker 1: I see Travis come around, and you know, I just
Speaker 1: like to, I like to to, you know, join my
Speaker 1: teammate here. I just want to be clear. I don't
Speaker 1: mind table. I just think your reasoning behind it was
Speaker 1: a little the kids at that sorry for himself, right, yeah.
Speaker 1: But other than that, you know, there's not a ton
Speaker 1: there's not a ton on the rules change on that agenda. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, I ask a question, how commits every other
Speaker 1: years that's just to let the couple times. Yes, I
Speaker 1: like that. I I don't like changing a bunch of
Speaker 1: rules every year because everybody has to then adjust. Officials
Speaker 1: have to learn something new, players, coaches have to learn
Speaker 1: something new, and it's hard. It's hard. So I like
Speaker 1: the idea of of every other every other year. UM,
Speaker 1: knee jerk. Yeah, And you don't exactly knee jerk reaction
Speaker 1: to something that happens one play, you know. I do
Speaker 1: think there will be a couple of other minor changes, Um,
Speaker 1: twelve men information on defense. Um, will no longer be
Speaker 1: a foul that the officials shut the play down for.
Speaker 1: And uh. And so I think that's interesting, but not
Speaker 1: a lot and and not a lot on the NFL
Speaker 1: side either right now. Um, you know, I think what's
Speaker 1: gonna be interesting is that the coaches, you know, what
Speaker 1: happens with past inference review. I think the coaches several
Speaker 1: teams have gotten together and they've proposed a sky judge,
Speaker 1: which would allow obviously somebody upstairs in the booth with
Speaker 1: access to video to help on certain calls. Um. I
Speaker 1: don't think the NFL coaches are gonna be are gonna
Speaker 1: be satisfied if the league gets rid of past and
Speaker 1: inference review and doesn't go to some kind of a
Speaker 1: sky judge concept. I think the coaches will um will
Speaker 1: have a very strong reaction to that, and so I
Speaker 1: don't know what's going to happen at this point. They
Speaker 1: have their their competition meeting meetings in in a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks that they go in Florida, and then they
Speaker 1: have the league meeting, uh, and I think it's like
Speaker 1: Florida of March, and that's where they vote on the changes.
Speaker 1: Do you happen to know just a general feeling of
Speaker 1: how the coaches felt this year on how the past
Speaker 1: interferance thing was handled, because happy, that's yeah, that's at
Speaker 1: all um. They they are, you know, and we talked
Speaker 1: about it. We talked about it all year, and I
Speaker 1: think some of it is a result of making a
Speaker 1: subjective call reviewable and and trying to figure that out
Speaker 1: in replay, and and the other thing is they there
Speaker 1: was almost like it got to the point where there
Speaker 1: was this impossible standard to overturn the call on the field,
Speaker 1: when really, why have the rule then? And we talked
Speaker 1: about it. So to me, the only way this rule
Speaker 1: can work is if you say, for that one play only,
Speaker 1: we're gonna reofficiate the play and it's either is or
Speaker 1: it isn't, and we'll use the video to help us
Speaker 1: make that decision. But to have some kind of indisputable
Speaker 1: standard is going to be really really difficult, UM to
Speaker 1: to apply. And we saw it. We saw we saw
Speaker 1: it during the during the season. If you Dean, have
Speaker 1: you got any feedback from coaches executive GMS about UM.
Speaker 1: The way the XFL is doing the replays with the
Speaker 1: guys in the booth and seeing seeing them that way
Speaker 1: with all the different angles definitely has been talked about.
Speaker 1: I think I don't the NFL is not going to
Speaker 1: go to a full transparency where you get to see
Speaker 1: and hear what the replay officials doing. It's just not
Speaker 1: I think again, I think that works for a new
Speaker 1: a new league, UM, but I don't know if that
Speaker 1: if the NFL is quite there yet, Is that how
Speaker 1: the sky judge will work? Though that guy would essentially
Speaker 1: be the sky judge? Well yeah, I mean replay would
Speaker 1: definitely be the sky judge, no question, UM. And then
Speaker 1: the you have access to all the video, you have
Speaker 1: access to the too, UM, and you you'd be able
Speaker 1: to communicate with the on field crew and that would
Speaker 1: and and add input just like a regular on field official.
Speaker 1: And I think that's how that sky Judge concept with work.
Speaker 1: I don't know again if there's gonna be enough support
Speaker 1: for that, but I know the coaches are going to
Speaker 1: propose it and I know therefore it and that's gonna
Speaker 1: be in interesting. Can you talk a little bit about
Speaker 1: that Hawkeye system that's being used by the XFL. Now, Yeah,
Speaker 1: So the Hawkeye system is is a replay system that's
Speaker 1: used in tennis. The NHL uses Hawkeye, and what the
Speaker 1: Hawkeye system does is it gives you access to all
Speaker 1: of the camera feeds that are available. So right now,
Speaker 1: the way replay works is you you basically have a
Speaker 1: system that is recording the program feed of the game,
Speaker 1: and that's the feed that you see at home. It's
Speaker 1: it's what it's what the the producer in the truck
Speaker 1: is putting out over the air, and then the system
Speaker 1: records it and you can manipulate the video, you can
Speaker 1: run it back and forth, you can do different things.
Speaker 1: What the Hawkeye system does is immediately following the play,
Speaker 1: the replay fish will have access to every angle. So
Speaker 1: it doesn't have to go on the program feed. The
Speaker 1: producer doesn't have to show it on the air for
Speaker 1: the replay official to have access to it. It makes
Speaker 1: the process more efficient, but it also it opens up
Speaker 1: the the the situation where replay can make a decision
Speaker 1: on an angle that hasn't been seen by people at
Speaker 1: home watching the broadcast. So that's where I think the
Speaker 1: communication is important. And the xfls using hawkey and and
Speaker 1: and we've seen that, We've seen happen on Sunday. It
Speaker 1: happened on Sunday where the replay official. If the replay
Speaker 1: official makes a decision based on an angle that hasn't
Speaker 1: been on the program feed, then they have to communicate
Speaker 1: that to TV so they can show it on the air.
Speaker 1: And I think that's I think that's the important part. Um. So,
Speaker 1: you know, not a lot of changes, but there was
Speaker 1: the combine. The biggest thing from the combine is the
Speaker 1: punter from Arizona State, Joe, are you aware? Are you
Speaker 1: aware of I'm not on my phone? Quick? Are you want?
Speaker 1: What do you want? Now? Bumble? What I don't bumble?
Speaker 1: You don't bumble? Is that like a thing that people
Speaker 1: in bumble say, Hey, you bumbling. I have a friend.
Speaker 1: I have friends bumble. I don't want to bumble and chill, Like,
Speaker 1: is that a thing? I don't I wouldn't know. I'm
Speaker 1: not a bumbler, So you're not a bumbler. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: was checking into my flight. Okay, where you going? Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: this is the nice, nice nice drop Costa Rica, Costa Rica.
Speaker 1: Oh this is so you're going like this is kind
Speaker 1: of like Joe time. Yeah, you're going this is this
Speaker 1: is Joe is taking and I think this is good.
Speaker 1: I think we all should do this. Um, he's taking
Speaker 1: a little me time. It's like his own little retreat.
Speaker 1: He's gonna refresh. He's gonna just kind of reboot a
Speaker 1: little bit, go to Costa Rica, surf um, meditate, do
Speaker 1: jiu jitsu, do jiu jitsu, and the sand by himself,
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be I think you're gonna come back
Speaker 1: and you're gonna have like a new outlook on life.
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see that, Joe. It's gonna be amazing.
Speaker 1: Maybe you should leave your phone in the United States too, Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: So when you're meditating, you're not bumbling or not, which
Speaker 1: brings me to one thing. Can I question You're gonna
Speaker 1: ask before this, did you see the Arizona State punter
Speaker 1: during the combine? How many? Okay, how many? You know
Speaker 1: what they do with the combine, the strength, with the
Speaker 1: pounds rights? How many times do you think the Arizona
Speaker 1: State puntered dead? How many reps? Can I see a
Speaker 1: picture of him or something? He's he's like six ft two,
Speaker 1: He's like six ft two twenty pretty solid. Okay, so
Speaker 1: he's like my size. Okay, I don't know a dozen punter.
Speaker 1: He's a big punter, punter. He did so he did
Speaker 1: twenty five, which which is more than all the wide receivers,
Speaker 1: all but one of the tight ends, which is more
Speaker 1: than a lot of defensive lineman, a lot of reps,
Speaker 1: a lot of reps. How many do you think you
Speaker 1: could do him? What's his name? Turk? Right? Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: a big dude, Michael Turk and his dad his cause
Speaker 1: uncle is Matt Turk, who who punted in the Probably
Speaker 1: I could do? What do you think the record is? Oh?
Speaker 1: I remember this? Um is so many? Who did Stephen?
Speaker 1: I think it's how you say he was a defensive alignement? Yeah?
Speaker 1: He uh is delicious too. It has the crust if
Speaker 1: it like the rice kind of burns. I don't know
Speaker 1: I can realistically, maybe maybe a dozen I might be able.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm to twenty five. I could do
Speaker 1: sixty push up. So it's I don't think. I don't know. Here,
Speaker 1: here's I don't really bend for us. I think I
Speaker 1: could do none. I know I can't do any as well.
Speaker 1: You can't do. Really, I don't think I could do
Speaker 1: more than if I If I could, definitely yes, but
Speaker 1: if I did more than three, I'd be shocked. I
Speaker 1: don't think I could bench my body weight at this
Speaker 1: point in like I got to go to the gym
Speaker 1: right from here and try it. All right, we'll let
Speaker 1: us know ruin. My whole trip is gonna a news
Speaker 1: story like local if you're not angels man dies at
Speaker 1: gym Local Local man dies and himself on the bench screaming,
Speaker 1: I'm better than a punter. The snow joke, I know,
Speaker 1: has really has no indication of how well he would
Speaker 1: play in the NFL, Like it's nothing. Isn't the whole
Speaker 1: combine kind of not indicative because it's like these weird
Speaker 1: isolated things. I mean, yes, you can want to be
Speaker 1: fast if you're you know, a corner or something. But
Speaker 1: it's just like, wow, he his vertical is amazing on
Speaker 1: a stand still leap. Yeah, but that also, I mean
Speaker 1: that translates more directly to a football game. But what
Speaker 1: is a punter ney to be doing bench presses for
Speaker 1: to make tackles? We expected not expected to make those.
Speaker 1: So I and I agree. I think it's if you
Speaker 1: really want to just follow. Mark Slaire is our colleague
Speaker 1: at Fox Sports, and he's market is like, really gone
Speaker 1: all in on the combine and he, you know, he's
Speaker 1: making like it's pretty funny. And I love Mark. He's like,
Speaker 1: I'm really good at exercising and that's gonna make me
Speaker 1: do well in the NFL. And I think the combine
Speaker 1: because we've seen we've seen these guys that come in
Speaker 1: and they they do unbelievably in the combine. They have
Speaker 1: these unbelievable UM numbers and everything else, and then they
Speaker 1: they don't play in the NFL. They can't, they can't
Speaker 1: cut it. To me. What I think the combine does
Speaker 1: really clubs. The workouts that's for that's for TV, that's
Speaker 1: for the media. Like honestly, the clubs The value in
Speaker 1: the combine is the medicals and the interviews. That's it
Speaker 1: because the players all go there. The clubs can get
Speaker 1: can can do all their medical exams, so obviously, and
Speaker 1: if you have a guy that has an injury something
Speaker 1: like that, and the interviews they get every club, they
Speaker 1: get to sit down, they get to talk to the
Speaker 1: draft eligible players, ask him questions and uh and kind
Speaker 1: of get to get a feel for who they are.
Speaker 1: That's what the clubs really really you know, go there
Speaker 1: for the workouts. I think the workout. You have a
Speaker 1: guy like St. Jonathan Taylor, who who's you know, running
Speaker 1: back for wiscon on home improvement. Great. So here's a
Speaker 1: guy that has I mean, there's no question he can play,
Speaker 1: at least on the college level. You watch his tape,
Speaker 1: you look at you look at his numbers. He can play,
Speaker 1: but there's questions about his speed. You know, is he fat?
Speaker 1: Is he is he truly? Does he have that breakaway speed?
Speaker 1: Does he have? And he ends up running a really
Speaker 1: good forty. That's the guy that the combine can help
Speaker 1: because we know he can play, but there was questions
Speaker 1: about his speed and he run he ran like a
Speaker 1: four three nine. I think um, then whoever finds that
Speaker 1: first between Scott and Travis is going to continue on
Speaker 1: the show. And and that's the guy that Scott's already bound.
Speaker 1: So that's the guy that I think it can help. UM. Well,
Speaker 1: So a question with Joe Burrows skipping the workouts, is
Speaker 1: he still going down there to do the interviews or
Speaker 1: totally for three nine? I have a question, Yes, so
Speaker 1: you've seen draft day, Yeah, do you think that? And
Speaker 1: I don't know if you can say this if you
Speaker 1: have some confidential information, but do you think they really
Speaker 1: do things like put the hundred dollar bill at the
Speaker 1: back of the playbook and like do stuff. I think
Speaker 1: all things that have happened, I mean that stuff. I
Speaker 1: don't know how much that happens now, but I think
Speaker 1: that stuff did happen at times. I mean I've heard
Speaker 1: stories about so I've heard stories about guys, you know,
Speaker 1: them putting um like the video guy putting UM taped
Speaker 1: together for who was Jamacus Russell, remember Jamacus Russell number
Speaker 1: one pick and like putting on his on his um
Speaker 1: and at that time, I don't even know, I don't
Speaker 1: think they were using iPads, but putting all this video
Speaker 1: for for Jamacus Russell to watch and then it was
Speaker 1: obvious that he didn't watch a second of it, you know,
Speaker 1: So they would make sure that they would do things
Speaker 1: to check that these guys were actually doing what they
Speaker 1: were supposed to be going. So it's still famous yellow
Speaker 1: eminem's in a contract, you know that one, So like
Speaker 1: like get in the fine in the fine print of
Speaker 1: like a legal contract for like someone, you say, for actors,
Speaker 1: they do this like, oh did you read the read
Speaker 1: defined print? He wants all yellow m m's. And if
Speaker 1: they don't do that, it's not because that that ad
Speaker 1: that actor's high maintenance. It's because they want to know
Speaker 1: that they're reading the full contract reading it. Yeah, well
Speaker 1: that would have been easy for me, because you know
Speaker 1: I want the panut eminem right, it's not but you
Speaker 1: like all the colors. I like t Scott, I'm you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't just don't even go into the
Speaker 1: century lounge or what. I don't discriminate, just let you
Speaker 1: know what. Let's talk. Let's go to break and we'll
Speaker 1: talk about that when we come back. All right, all right,
Speaker 1: we're back on good calls. Let's get into it. We
Speaker 1: got a lot of things to cover in this segment.
Speaker 1: We talked a couple of weeks ago about one of
Speaker 1: my favorite underrated movies comedies euro Trip, and if you
Speaker 1: haven't seen it, check it out. But there's there's Matt
Speaker 1: Damon is in euro Trip. Is kind of like a
Speaker 1: cameo replay. He plays like this, I don't know punk
Speaker 1: rock singer, I don't know whatever music you want to
Speaker 1: call it. And the song is Scotty doesn't Know. And
Speaker 1: Matt Damon is sleeping with the main character, Scotty's girlfriend,
Speaker 1: and the song is Scotty Doesn't Know. And we're wondering
Speaker 1: how the hell Matt Damon ended up casting this role.
Speaker 1: Travis did some research and it's about to tell us
Speaker 1: how Matt Damon ended up in euro Trip. So Matt
Speaker 1: Damon went to school and he was he studied like
Speaker 1: film in screenwriting. He's a screenwriter and he wrote. One
Speaker 1: of the films he wrote in college was for an
Speaker 1: English assignment. Was good will hunting? A treatment for it?
Speaker 1: At least no way? What what was good at good
Speaker 1: good will hunting? About Travis, it's a good will hunting.
Speaker 1: We're not gonna do that. Um. So he he had
Speaker 1: these other writer friends in college that wrote the movie
Speaker 1: euro Trip, and he clearly hasn't seen it, Scott, I'll continue.
Speaker 1: So so, yeah, so these these guys who wrote wait
Speaker 1: can we you? Are you? He is dead serious, Scott.
Speaker 1: He is telling me like like he's telling me what
Speaker 1: good Will Hunting was. He's like, you know, he wrote
Speaker 1: this script and it was called good Will Hunting. Well,
Speaker 1: he's also going like, okay, so Matt Damon's American actor.
Speaker 1: He does, but he has not seen Good Will Hunting
Speaker 1: and he's explaining it to me like I haven't seen it.
Speaker 1: I have seen it out, thank God. Okay, go. So
Speaker 1: he went to college with these guys who wrote euro
Speaker 1: Trip and he's like, I'm in your I'll be in
Speaker 1: Europe filming another movie, The Brothers Grim. So he's like, so,
Speaker 1: he's like, I'll be in that movie. I'll do that
Speaker 1: role for you guys. So he did a favorite first
Speaker 1: buddies who wrote it, and since he was already in Europe,
Speaker 1: he's like, I'll come over. I'll shave my head for
Speaker 1: that role to be the punk rock lead singer. Since
Speaker 1: I'm wearing a wig in this movie that I'm doing,
Speaker 1: so I'll shave my head and then he was just
Speaker 1: like a timing than it was the timing thing. What
Speaker 1: you know what, it's awesome, you know what? This the
Speaker 1: secret to life is right? I told you right, two things,
Speaker 1: the secret to life, a meaning of life. The two
Speaker 1: things timing and lighting. If you give me good timing
Speaker 1: and good lighting, everything else I look great in the bar.
Speaker 1: Everything else is gravy. Well, I mean I chucked up
Speaker 1: meeting Dan Blie Blandino. Here to timing right, I will
Speaker 1: say I have a personal connection to Deer Trip, and
Speaker 1: it's not actually personal, it's just said. I was when
Speaker 1: that movie really blew up. I was working at best
Speaker 1: Buy and a lot of my co workers would just
Speaker 1: say Scotty doesn't know. They would just yell that at me,
Speaker 1: and uh did you made me? Uh? Not like that
Speaker 1: movie as much? Man, that's a strike against your right Dean.
Speaker 1: That's like when I made fun of Scallone. Well maybe
Speaker 1: not quite that. Don't don't inst do your Stallone impersonation.
Speaker 1: It's great, it's not great, Yes it is, it's good.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do it. I don't want to insult
Speaker 1: the man either, except for I mean, well, we'll talk
Speaker 1: about it later. Is is some of his recent choices
Speaker 1: have been upsetting. Look, let's just the man is a legend.
Speaker 1: The man has brought us cinematic just gold, gold, Rocky everything.
Speaker 1: So we're not gonna talk about storm right now. Going
Speaker 1: back to Matt Damon, does anyone know where he went
Speaker 1: to college? I would, uh, I mean the choice, the
Speaker 1: obvious choice would be somewhere in New England, my mass Chusetts,
Speaker 1: but I don't from Cambridge, went to Harvard. I didn't
Speaker 1: know that until I looked this up. My boys wicked smile,
Speaker 1: wicked smile. So okay, just anybody in there. The other thing,
Speaker 1: the actually, here's the thing, you're all. The other thing
Speaker 1: that we were talking about is who do you think?
Speaker 1: And I don't know the answer to this, So this
Speaker 1: is all gonna be speculation, but it's a good conversation.
Speaker 1: Who is who do you think has made the most
Speaker 1: money the highest paid commercial actor? And we're talking about
Speaker 1: like people like Flow from Progressive like the Get Go Mayhem,
Speaker 1: That's who who do we think has made Now we
Speaker 1: know the guy that we that I think has made
Speaker 1: the most is just no forget about not a celebrity endorser.
Speaker 1: Shaqu Will endorse anything that Shaquial endorse any general he does,
Speaker 1: the general insurance shack will endorse whatever you want like
Speaker 1: this agents like shaq I don't think we should touch
Speaker 1: this one. I'm good so that the face, the face
Speaker 1: is closer. I wish you could see a face. So
Speaker 1: how about God? I mean, but the guy that probably
Speaker 1: made the most is a piece of ship and he's
Speaker 1: in prison. All right, so Jared from Subway. So but
Speaker 1: here's one what an all time lame by the way,
Speaker 1: let me go off on Jared here. It's just like
Speaker 1: he would go like it started in like I think
Speaker 1: the like ninety four seven. It's like a decade later
Speaker 1: he's just showing up at subways like here's my big
Speaker 1: pants I used to wear. It's like what ace? And
Speaker 1: that's how he got those appearances, I wonder. And you're
Speaker 1: trying to tell me that this mother that he all
Speaker 1: he did was eat subway Like that's how he lost
Speaker 1: that he walked. That was the other party. And I'm
Speaker 1: waiting for the like FX American Crime story that yeah,
Speaker 1: where he's like in like he's yelling like I'm Jared.
Speaker 1: You know who I am. I'm Jared. I can do
Speaker 1: whatever I want. So this is going to be Scott's
Speaker 1: strong point. This is but the here's one that I
Speaker 1: was thinking of the other day that I think might
Speaker 1: be in the running. And again we don't know. But
Speaker 1: who might be in the running is the Verizon guy
Speaker 1: who went to sprint. That guy could be it because
Speaker 1: he's in print, he's in the he's on the commercials
Speaker 1: like he's everywhere. That's that's why a great question off air.
Speaker 1: We also said, well, I think it's Flow because from Progressive,
Speaker 1: because she has she was the face of this I
Speaker 1: think for now like fifteen years. I looked at I'll
Speaker 1: double check. But yeah, and so. But but just like
Speaker 1: you said, uh, Dean, she does the print ad, she's
Speaker 1: you hear her on radio. She's getting paid for all
Speaker 1: these things. She's done hundreds of progressive commercials. It's insane.
Speaker 1: Oh I just I just did a little google about
Speaker 1: the most interesting Yeah, that's what just came up. The
Speaker 1: most interesting man in the world. Yeah, but I don't
Speaker 1: he stands is one of the highest network commercial actors
Speaker 1: out around eight million bucks. Yeah, but he's fired. Now
Speaker 1: they're not doing but they're not doing it anymore. And
Speaker 1: I think I think Flow has been around longer, like
Speaker 1: certainly those ads The most Interesting Man in the World
Speaker 1: ads was was one of the more like clever ad campaigns.
Speaker 1: I think what it did is it took remember the
Speaker 1: all the jokes and the Chuck Norris Norris basically the
Speaker 1: Chuck Norris jokes, and it made it. Yeah. Flow makes
Speaker 1: a thousand per year I'm sorry, excuse you, a million,
Speaker 1: millions million dollars a year. See. But here's the thing
Speaker 1: we were talking about that what what side are you on?
Speaker 1: The official site that knows everything that people are making?
Speaker 1: Like what side are you on Google? Yah? But celebrity
Speaker 1: networth is the celebrity netword? How do they know exactly
Speaker 1: what someone's network. There's no way they can know what
Speaker 1: type of residuals and back in the contracts are. Because
Speaker 1: I have friends who have done commercial acting and it
Speaker 1: really depends obviously like Flow, like the like there there's
Speaker 1: no buyout things. She's like getting massive like front end contract.
Speaker 1: She's getting paid so much. Yeah, she's making more than
Speaker 1: a million a year. They say her net worth on
Speaker 1: this thing is only six million, which Flow is like
Speaker 1: Flow spending a lot of money that we maybe Flow
Speaker 1: needs to relax because this is not flow spending money
Speaker 1: on flows occasion rattlesnake. It's just it's just a rhymes rhyme.
Speaker 1: You can't help basically now now now flow from progressive
Speaker 1: as a coke head, and she's, you know, defamation of
Speaker 1: character real quick. I have to mention this now too,
Speaker 1: because I was looking at something on the computer. Jared
Speaker 1: Fogos only forty two. He looked, he looked bad. He
Speaker 1: looked because I thought he was he's But can we
Speaker 1: just say that the the sorry I brought up, the
Speaker 1: why you bringing him back up? Some of the long
Speaker 1: in the room. You know, some of the sentiments that
Speaker 1: are said on this show are not necessarily the the
Speaker 1: sentiments of the name on the show. By the way, Travis, thanks. Um.
Speaker 1: The other thing we were doing is we we did
Speaker 1: a game where if you start to type in a
Speaker 1: name and Google and see what comes up in the
Speaker 1: dropdown list, So like, pick a name, do me for example,
Speaker 1: we did. We did blend you know, and the first
Speaker 1: thing that pops up is Dallas party bus, party bus.

Speaker 1: it's like all the roster of talent, Like, am I
Speaker 1: they list me at like six four? Oh dude? Can
Speaker 1: they get me on there? Then alright they're gonna we're
Speaker 1: gonna pad height stats. All right. So, like I said
Speaker 1: that the network thing is ridiculous, it's not true, Travis.
Speaker 1: You said you looked up my network. Try to try
Speaker 1: to find it. Yeah, I try to find yours, and
Speaker 1: it just it just says in a in poor grammar,
Speaker 1: um net worth and more than millions of dollars congratulation.
Speaker 1: So I have my net worth is more than millions
Speaker 1: of dollar? Yes? Is that okay? That's cool. You could
Speaker 1: say that about almost anybody living in l A. Well,
Speaker 1: not me about that. There's a lot of a mult
Speaker 1: have you seen like ten City? Yeah, I don't think.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna work. Um, all right, let's
Speaker 1: go brain of Blendio Downtown Houston Aquarium. How shitty of
Speaker 1: a fish do you have to be? Okay? So I
Speaker 1: was in when I was in Houston, I saw that
Speaker 1: aquarium and I just I was just thinking, like, it's
Speaker 1: not a very aquarium friendly environment, Like think about like
Speaker 1: a very like New York City or Detroit, Like imagine
Speaker 1: that the aquarium in downtown Detroit. It's not like a
Speaker 1: fish is swimming in beautiful like Caribbean waters and they
Speaker 1: get caught to take into an aquarium and they end
Speaker 1: up in Detroit? Like how how much does that suck?
Speaker 1: Like what like you don't even get this as a
Speaker 1: cartoon movie or something like like yeah, like you'd be
Speaker 1: in the down like what kind of fish are in this?
Speaker 1: So the quality of the aquarium itself in Houston, it's
Speaker 1: not like a rundown place, is it. I don't I
Speaker 1: just don't know. It just doesn't feel like it doesn't
Speaker 1: feel like a I just feel like the city doesn't
Speaker 1: seem very aquarium friendly. Does that does that make sense? It?
Speaker 1: Does it? Does? I? I've definitely uh heard and seen
Speaker 1: like Santa Barbara feels like a good spot, the beautiful beach,
Speaker 1: but really like Florida, but like I don't think that unlocked,
Speaker 1: Like oh maha, but isn't that actually worse? Like if
Speaker 1: you're the fish, You're like I'm so close to where
Speaker 1: I'm from, but I'm in a cage. Yeah, I guess
Speaker 1: I just don't. I don't know. It just struck me funny,
Speaker 1: like I was just like looking at it was like
Speaker 1: if I was a fish, I wouldn't want to be
Speaker 1: at that aquair. I'd want to be in the Sydney, Australia.
Speaker 1: I know this isn't exactly what you're saying, but I've
Speaker 1: a while ago I read like a national geographic about
Speaker 1: like animal tourism, how people will go like I want
Speaker 1: to go swim with these dolphins or I want to
Speaker 1: ride these elephants, and then they expose that like they
Speaker 1: are living in hell, like they're in a cage and
Speaker 1: they're getting beaten. Yeah, And it kind of made me
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, most zoos, most of aquarium these are bad. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I I don't like I think they're there. There's zoos
Speaker 1: like the San Diego Zoo is really nice, and I
Speaker 1: do think the animals are treated well at a zoo
Speaker 1: like that and in a lot of animals, and I think,
Speaker 1: I like, if I'm an animal like you are, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but if I'm an animal that is in a zoo,
Speaker 1: like I'm feeling pretty good. Like if I'm in the
Speaker 1: wild and I'm could be eaten like right, just imagine.
Speaker 1: But we talked about this, I think during this season
Speaker 1: where it was like remember the documentary Blackfish where it's
Speaker 1: like they have that aerial shot where it's just like
Speaker 1: a camera, you know, it's like a helicopter shot and
Speaker 1: you see the whale and it's basically just in a bathtub.
Speaker 1: So that movie made me not want to go to
Speaker 1: see World. Ever. I've never been, and I would never
Speaker 1: I've never been, and I felt bad for going. I went.
Speaker 1: I went before the movie exposed after no no, I
Speaker 1: swear before actually donated money to see World after he
Speaker 1: donated money to try to block that film from being
Speaker 1: from being aired. You would be the guy that the
Speaker 1: feeding falls creation. That's not true. The depressed doors true,
Speaker 1: the depressed it's normal. It's normal. You know. We feel
Speaker 1: so bad for these these these animals. But going to
Speaker 1: an office building, same thing. That's what we're doing. We're
Speaker 1: getting Cuba trapped. Oh wow, going there. You went there.
Speaker 1: On that note, let's end the show on a real
Speaker 1: positive note. Thanks for listening. This has been good calls.
