Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Rosenthal and jessel Nick Vanity Project, Anthony.
Speaker 1: They said we wouldn't make it to episode two. Suck
Speaker 1: it through a straw. Oh, we are back. That's Fetti Wapp.
Speaker 1: We contracted him to play our intro song. He's a
Speaker 1: huge fan of Anthony and myself. Thanks Fetty, thanks for
Speaker 1: the help. This is the Rosenthal and jessel Nick Vanity Project.
Speaker 1: Thank you to everyone who subscribed and downloaded and sent
Speaker 1: us nice things. And everyone was saying, you know, they
Speaker 1: were worried we wouldn't be back for the second episode.
Speaker 1: But here we are. Anthony. Yeah, I notice everyone to
Speaker 1: the Greg is thanking you for subscribing, for giving your
Speaker 1: feedback and listening. I don't really care, yeah, care so
Speaker 1: much about about what goes on here. I'm kind of
Speaker 1: just here to hang up with my friend Greg. I
Speaker 1: can pretty much tell that by your lack of promotion
Speaker 1: for the podcast and in general lack of interest, like
Speaker 1: will you ever listen to our podcast? I don't listen
Speaker 1: to things. Um, I did you know, man, I don't
Speaker 1: have to listen to it. I was here when it happened,
Speaker 1: and I don't even really I don't really watch things
Speaker 1: that I do. I don't watch myself on TV. I
Speaker 1: just do it. And then I collected a check. That's
Speaker 1: fair to your job. Well, how do you think the
Speaker 1: first one? You know you were here for the first one.
Speaker 1: I think I went the same. I mean, I think
Speaker 1: that it's gonna get better every single week. You know,
Speaker 1: I think you were crazy nervous, uh, and like just
Speaker 1: super unprepared. But you know, I think I all through
Speaker 1: through over my shoulders and carried you around like a fireman.
Speaker 1: I've got I've got some sources. And speaking of which,
Speaker 1: you've got some sources coming up later in the show.
Speaker 1: We're gonna we're gonna do that. We're gonna go over
Speaker 1: some headlines are world famous weekly predictions. Now we're gonna
Speaker 1: bring that back where we got our listener of the week.
Speaker 1: We're gonna look at some of the tweets you guys
Speaker 1: sent us. We have our hot take of the week.
Speaker 1: Um oh, listen to that Little Wayne. That was little Wayne,
Speaker 1: little way, Little Wayne? Uh? Is this did I remember
Speaker 1: this right? Didn't juvenile once knock on our friend Roggin's
Speaker 1: door in college by mistake like he was looking for
Speaker 1: his girlfriend. It was not a mistake. He were corructed
Speaker 1: by this sophomore year of college at two Lane and
Speaker 1: week before school started, we're having a party and juvenile
Speaker 1: just came over. I think it was at his girlfriend's
Speaker 1: house next door. One of his many girlfriends knocked on
Speaker 1: the door, and we had no idea who he was,
Speaker 1: and he kept holding up his chain going he didn't know,
Speaker 1: he had no idea. That's the part i'd have going
Speaker 1: cash money, cash money, Like who is this guy? What
Speaker 1: does cash money mean? And then someone's like, that's juvenile
Speaker 1: and we let him use the phone. I see, I
Speaker 1: would have known because cash money at that point where
Speaker 1: essentially like we were like living in Liverpool when the
Speaker 1: Beatles started. In terms of our time in New Orleans,
Speaker 1: I mean, cash money could not have been more popular.
Speaker 1: They were so popular. They had knockoff bands that would
Speaker 1: copy their songs. Shake It Like a Dog was one
Speaker 1: where they copied back that asked him and the and
Speaker 1: the knockoff bands were popular. Yeah, yeah, I remember this.
Speaker 1: It was amazing. How was the biggest song that ever
Speaker 1: was created? How it was huge? Back that thing up,
Speaker 1: I use the edited version. I didn't realize let's go,
Speaker 1: let's let's let's move on a little bit. We can
Speaker 1: come back now let's just talk about cash money. We
Speaker 1: can come back to stories. But I didn't realize after
Speaker 1: the podcast we got some complaints. People said, you guys
Speaker 1: sounded edited. They're not letting ants, Anthony. Here's my philosophy
Speaker 1: on this is that again, like I'm just here to
Speaker 1: hang out with my friend Greg behind the shield, behind
Speaker 1: the shield and all the protection that it entails. But
Speaker 1: also there are things that come with that, Like I
Speaker 1: didn't know we're not allowed to swear. I thought usually
Speaker 1: on podcasts you can can't swear for the Shield everywhere
Speaker 1: we go. I think of what Roger Goodell says, if
Speaker 1: you're an NFL employee like me, everywhere you go, you're
Speaker 1: representing the Shield. I'm like a walking NFL insignia. I
Speaker 1: mean I've been representing the Shield my whole life. I
Speaker 1: feel like you know what I mean, just just in
Speaker 1: terms of what the league stands for. So, yes, they
Speaker 1: did have to cut out a lot of the show. People, Uh,
Speaker 1: we're upset about that. They were saying they want the
Speaker 1: uncut version. That's never gonna there is no one cut version.
Speaker 1: Like we knew doing this, they we're gonna have to
Speaker 1: cut it up. But my promise to you, I promised
Speaker 1: to you the listeners, is that I will go back
Speaker 1: through each episode afterwards and I will explain what got
Speaker 1: cut out, and then if that gets cut out the
Speaker 1: next week, I will have to explain that again. It
Speaker 1: will be very meta and it will just be an
Speaker 1: interesting take to see kind of what we what we
Speaker 1: went for, and a lot of it's just things like
Speaker 1: I said in the moment or Greg said in the
Speaker 1: moment um. But let me go through last week's episode
Speaker 1: and tell you what we cut. We cut like five
Speaker 1: or six things. First of all, any time I swore
Speaker 1: we had to cut, which was a shame, um, because
Speaker 1: I'm good at it. You know, I really hit the
Speaker 1: I really hit that when I want to do it.
Speaker 1: It's a it's good for me. Um. We we cut
Speaker 1: a breast cancer reference talking about Ironhead, Heyward. Um, I
Speaker 1: kind of made a reference to the fact that, uh,
Speaker 1: they don't let you talk about you know, your your
Speaker 1: dad who died from brain cancer, but it was breast cancer.
Speaker 1: But they won't even really let you do that edited
Speaker 1: because it was too funny. Um. Another thing that got
Speaker 1: cut uh from the show that was not breast cancer related.
Speaker 1: We had it. We had a question which team do
Speaker 1: we hate? Which teams we love to see kind of suffer?
Speaker 1: I had picked the uh, the the Ravens, Suji Pick,
Speaker 1: I don't even remember. Oh, the Giants, the Giants. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it was just boring, Yeah it was. It wasn't interesting.
Speaker 1: That's what we cut. It wasn't for contents. Uh. Then
Speaker 1: we moved on that. We had a question about Big
Speaker 1: Ben with Big Ben would Greg, would you let Big
Speaker 1: Ben watch your children? Uh? And actually that was you.
Speaker 1: You stepped over the line and made a joke about
Speaker 1: Ben's past. Well, yeah, yeah, you're not allowed to talk
Speaker 1: about Ben's past if you work for the NFL. He's
Speaker 1: one of our he's one of our important guys. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I mean I think you should have known that. Like,
Speaker 1: I would never make a joke about Ben's past like that,
Speaker 1: unless you're talking about his Super Bowl rings. I would
Speaker 1: talk about that all day. Um. But but yeah, that
Speaker 1: got cut because of Greg. And then again this last
Speaker 1: one here was because of Greg. We talked about Playboy
Speaker 1: for a little bit and how Playboy, um is uh
Speaker 1: is not gonna show? I mean I more and you
Speaker 1: went off on kind of like a rant about pornography
Speaker 1: that made me uncomfortable, to be quite honest, like I
Speaker 1: was like, I didn't pick that up. Was that emotion?
Speaker 1: I was like, cut this, cut this, Like you're a
Speaker 1: married man. Maybe maybe we're playing against type here. You're
Speaker 1: supposed to be the bad boy of comedy and but
Speaker 1: who's getting cut out more of this show me or you?
Speaker 1: It's you? Maybe it really shows who's got it. I
Speaker 1: could be that maybe on the bad boy of NFL podcasters.
Speaker 1: I think you're like the bad boy of aesthetics to
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like, that's like why a lot of
Speaker 1: the stuff gets cut. But again, I'm wearing some pretty
Speaker 1: sweet purple slacks right now. You are dressed for the office.
Speaker 1: I'm dressed for the comedy club. That was actually not
Speaker 1: the last thing that was cut you. I want to
Speaker 1: I want to go a little further into you talking
Speaker 1: about porn. I just think that it was It wasn't
Speaker 1: so much like what you said. It was like who
Speaker 1: you were saying it about, edited for being overly crunk.
Speaker 1: So that wait, wait, there was one other thing that
Speaker 1: we cut. Oh yeah, you didn't even remember your your
Speaker 1: long insane profanity. I used tirade about her Edwards view
Speaker 1: on climate change. That was in there. That was little Wayne.
Speaker 1: Anthony just wants to you to live out his dream
Speaker 1: to be a radio host. Let's uh, let's go through. Actually,
Speaker 1: let's talk a little bit about what happened in the
Speaker 1: last week of our lives and so you know it
Speaker 1: show is gonna be a little bit about us. We're
Speaker 1: definitely gonna talk a lot about football. Headlines are coming
Speaker 1: up next and we got a lot of good ones.
Speaker 1: But that's a lot of little Wayne, A little heavy
Speaker 1: on the little way in there, Brandon. Uh, that was
Speaker 1: a little Wayne. The I just wanted to catch up
Speaker 1: quickly with you over what happened with you. I don't
Speaker 1: get to see you as much as I would like.
Speaker 1: It's busy during the NFL season year. Of course, the
Speaker 1: godfather god parents to both my children. Another week where
Speaker 1: you didn't give him any gifts or see them at all. Uh,
Speaker 1: what what have you been up to over the last week?
Speaker 1: Your specials out on Netflix? You're kind of off the
Speaker 1: road after a big three or four months on the
Speaker 1: road to what is happening? Specials on Netflix? Still getting
Speaker 1: good press. You saw the latest article that was the
Speaker 1: happiest I've ever been to say. That's right. There was
Speaker 1: an article with the title, and I'm recalling this from memory.
Speaker 1: Anthony jessel Nick is the greatest comedian of all time.
Speaker 1: Anthony Justin is the greatest comic who has ever lived.
Speaker 1: That's that's pretty amazing. If you don't believe it, google it,
Speaker 1: Google it. It's all about how great I am because
Speaker 1: I make fun of tragedies and most people don't. You're
Speaker 1: supposed to be a clown in the face of a tragedy.
Speaker 1: So you were excited. But I mean, I've been hearing
Speaker 1: this from you for a long time. In fact, in
Speaker 1: your special you call yourself the greatest comic. I say
Speaker 1: I'm a comedy god, and that is that is certainly true.
Speaker 1: I dwarf everyone else. Anyone else who holds a microphone
Speaker 1: is an embarrassment to the art form. So did you? Uh?
Speaker 1: Any shows? I did? I went? I I did Carson
Speaker 1: Daily at a spotting Carson Daily this week, my fourth
Speaker 1: time on Carson Daily and my career. Just let you
Speaker 1: know how well that's going. Uh. So you just like
Speaker 1: sit and talk to a producer. Carson's not even there.
Speaker 1: Carson doesn't care that's awkward. It's it's no. It's actually
Speaker 1: pretty easy because you don't have to worry about you,
Speaker 1: like I know they're gonna cut this if it's not good.
Speaker 1: You just sit there for half an hour and some
Speaker 1: producer like asked you how great you are? Skipped out
Speaker 1: on doing Seth Meyers the other week you were still.
Speaker 1: I had to cancel. I had. I had to cancel
Speaker 1: Seth Meyers because of travel things, but I would have
Speaker 1: loved to have been their sets of friend. Yeah, we're
Speaker 1: he's from Pittsburgh. We talked. We talked Steelers when I
Speaker 1: was on when I worked in thirty Rock on Follon
Speaker 1: you opened for everybodyse Garfunkle notes I want my friends.
Speaker 1: Garfunkle notes a guitar and ukulele comedy band um that
Speaker 1: they call themselves musical comedy, as I refer to it
Speaker 1: as music. Not a big musical comedy fan. But they're
Speaker 1: dear friends of mine. So I went to Seattle and
Speaker 1: open for them, and it was funny because it was
Speaker 1: like all these like young girls like in their audience
Speaker 1: and they have no idea who I am. So I
Speaker 1: would I go on stage and be like, what do
Speaker 1: you talk. I got a thousand times more famous than
Speaker 1: Garfunkle Notes, but they didn't care. They were just like, what,
Speaker 1: who were you? And they didn't even know about that.
Speaker 1: I was in one episode of Garfunkle Notes where I
Speaker 1: get up. It's not earlier audience maybe the musical comedy.
Speaker 1: What is the worst audience that you've ever had in
Speaker 1: terms of that you were just not the fit for it.
Speaker 1: I know casinos are a disaster. Sometimes, No casinos aren't bad.
Speaker 1: I mean not at this point. Now, I'm famous enough
Speaker 1: that if i'm if I'm the top of the bill,
Speaker 1: then you know what you're getting. I've done casinos where
Speaker 1: it might be a little weird, but people are into
Speaker 1: it where they get there. Um. The worst thing that
Speaker 1: I can remember recently last summer, I was in Ireland
Speaker 1: doing a festival in Dublin and they put me like.
Speaker 1: I had a couple of shows where I headlined and
Speaker 1: those were great, but they have one where I opened
Speaker 1: for this guy and this guy was like, I forget
Speaker 1: his name. I would compare him to like a Ryan
Speaker 1: Seacrest type kind of like a like an MTV VJ
Speaker 1: sort of thing where like young girls love him. He's
Speaker 1: like kind of not corny, but like close to corny
Speaker 1: and just very like friendly comedy. You know. He makes
Speaker 1: one of Justin Bieber and like breaks down the song
Speaker 1: baby the opposite of you because young girls hate you. Yes,
Speaker 1: young girls are not. Even my daughter still won't hug
Speaker 1: you hugged me. That's a true story. I got a
Speaker 1: high five every once in a while. Hugs everyone else
Speaker 1: really gonna now that I thought, it was like, that's
Speaker 1: not true. She's not a very she hugs her parents,
Speaker 1: but she's she's selected with she's going to give her love.
Speaker 1: I like that because I don't want her to be
Speaker 1: some kind of hug who's running around throwing hugs out
Speaker 1: left and right. Like I think when she's at the
Speaker 1: right age and she can appreciate my comedy and what
Speaker 1: I've done for her comedically, then she'll start hugging to
Speaker 1: be twenty years Yeah, but this Joe in Dublin, I walked.
Speaker 1: It was maybe a thousand people in this is a tent,
Speaker 1: and I walked four hundred of them, no joke, like
Speaker 1: there was a smoke machine, walked and they left. They left,
Speaker 1: They got up and left and drove in the street.
Speaker 1: There and there was a smoke machine where like just
Speaker 1: to make it the place look better, I guess, and
Speaker 1: they start pumping the smoke out so that there were
Speaker 1: things that I wouldn't be able to see people leaving
Speaker 1: if they just had too much smoke. So then I'm
Speaker 1: like yelling at the smoke machine guy and I'm like,
Speaker 1: just get me through this. I do half an hour.
Speaker 1: People were furious, like someone screamed out, you should be ashamed,
Speaker 1: and I like, I started laughing so hard after one
Speaker 1: of my jokes. And then this guy comes on who
Speaker 1: they're all waiting for. But even though they were waiting
Speaker 1: for him, I had ruined the crowd so hard it
Speaker 1: was like I had personally slapped them all on the face.
Speaker 1: And this poor bastard came out and was just like
Speaker 1: close to weeping when he took the mic from me,
Speaker 1: was like, thank you, Anthony, and then just bombed his
Speaker 1: face off for the next hour. That's great. You must
Speaker 1: have good about that. I did. I did. I thought
Speaker 1: it was hilarious. You know what I was thinking to
Speaker 1: see what I asked this question. Immediately thought you told
Speaker 1: me that story about your show at Marshall recently where
Speaker 1: you decided it would be a good idea to make
Speaker 1: a Marshall plane crash joke in the middle of your
Speaker 1: setup at Marshall. Several of them at Marshall. They were
Speaker 1: not happy. It was one of those jokes where everyone
Speaker 1: started talking to each other like I was. I was
Speaker 1: talking to a girl in the front row and uh,
Speaker 1: and this girl says, um, I'm like, oh, what do
Speaker 1: you do for a living? So I work here at
Speaker 1: the university. I work from Marshall. I'm in the athletic department.
Speaker 1: And I said, oh, what does that mean? You just
Speaker 1: make funeral arrangements? And and people just started talking. They
Speaker 1: were like really upset. And then I got them back
Speaker 1: and it was fine. And at the end of my
Speaker 1: seid I do a thing about like why I make
Speaker 1: fun of tragedies like that, and people kind of plotted
Speaker 1: after that. But then I had to go into a
Speaker 1: meet and greet right to meet these people in the audience,
Speaker 1: which I never do. I always wanted to, like just
Speaker 1: get out of them. You don't like meeting people in general, No,
Speaker 1: not after especially if they performed like leave me alone.
Speaker 1: Um A kind of sweaty and eyed, like my my
Speaker 1: head's going to million miles an hour. But I go
Speaker 1: to meet these people and everyone was like, you shouldn't
Speaker 1: have made that joke, like that was very funny, thank
Speaker 1: you for coming. You shouldn't made that joke. And I
Speaker 1: was like, well, that's what I do when they go
Speaker 1: no, no no, no, you shouldn't have made that joke here
Speaker 1: and I looked at all them, I was like, where
Speaker 1: the hell else am I gonna make this joke. It's
Speaker 1: Marshall or nowhere, Like no one else is like, hey,
Speaker 1: remember that plane crash in the seventies that happened in
Speaker 1: a different school. Let's talk about that for the that
Speaker 1: was your chance. You had to grab grab the bass ring.
Speaker 1: I remember last last week when I I did really
Speaker 1: listen to the show, most of it. I um, I
Speaker 1: stopped at the crunk Crunker, funky Fresh segment. I was
Speaker 1: just like, I can't, I can't really listen to this.
Speaker 1: But what one of the notes I sent to myself
Speaker 1: was get to football a little faster. And here we are,
Speaker 1: uh And I didn't take my note at all. We
Speaker 1: need we need some sort of excuse for the this
Speaker 1: to be on NFL media, So let's do some NFL headlines. Brandon,
Speaker 1: that was a little Wayne. We had a whole different
Speaker 1: headline song too. I was gonna have ready, But now
Speaker 1: Anthony is totally over ridden the production plan and has
Speaker 1: insisted we play Little Wayne as much as possible that
Speaker 1: one clip throughout the show. Maybe we'll change the clip
Speaker 1: each show. People can send us up and then we
Speaker 1: won't listen to him because Anthony's just gonna go with
Speaker 1: Black Rob next week. All right, let's talk uh some football.
Speaker 1: Jason Pierre Paul that this was a big story, breaking news.
Speaker 1: I wrote the story, Anthony. I don't know if you
Speaker 1: read it. Of course, did you read any Do you
Speaker 1: ever read anything on NFL dot Com that I read?
Speaker 1: I support your comedy go you know, watch the special
Speaker 1: go to you on show sometimes. Yeah, but my stuff
Speaker 1: is funny on purpose, you know what I mean. Jason
Speaker 1: Pierre Paul. He of course had the fireworks accident July fourth,
Speaker 1: one of two NFL players to have a big fireworks
Speaker 1: acts and the other one on the Buccaneers. His career
Speaker 1: is over. JPP is so good though he can play
Speaker 1: with less fingers. He has resigned with the Giants. He's
Speaker 1: gonna start practicing and he will be back on the
Speaker 1: field within a couple of weeks, he could make up
Speaker 1: to eight point seven million dollars this year. Anthony, you
Speaker 1: know what I heard. I heard that it wasn't an accident.
Speaker 1: I tell you that. Yeah, he was like, check this out.
Speaker 1: Uh did the old magic trick of how many fingers?
Speaker 1: How many fingers am I blowing up? Um? My? My
Speaker 1: thing about Jason Pierre Paul, I love him. I think
Speaker 1: it's hilarious that he lost a bunch of fingers and
Speaker 1: then just like the way he acted after that is great.
Speaker 1: What will be awesome if once he starts playing, every
Speaker 1: time he gets a sack, they shoot off fireworks. I
Speaker 1: mean kind of like when they had like them in
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers school and they have like the Jolly Roger going.
Speaker 1: If they just like do like just way too many
Speaker 1: fireworks every time he gets to say if he if
Speaker 1: he comes up with some fireworks themes sack celebration where
Speaker 1: he just exploding afterwards, or he definitely just waves his
Speaker 1: finger at everyone used to say, uh, yeah, Jess Pierre Paul,
Speaker 1: how good is that that you can play with three?
Speaker 1: Would you play? You're good enough to play with less fingers? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but only like as a defensive player. You know what
Speaker 1: I mean, if he was like if he was like,
Speaker 1: you know, if you played any other position he was
Speaker 1: a center, he wouldn't be as good. It's true. But
Speaker 1: if you want to be like, hey, Jason, who's number one,
Speaker 1: he's the guy, it's not gonna work. He said he was.
Speaker 1: I know, I was trying to think he was. He
Speaker 1: said he was feeling after this whole break, you know,
Speaker 1: the way from football. He's feeling much younger, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, like young, definitely lighter. Um Russell Wilson.
Speaker 1: This week, moving on to another headline, UH that was
Speaker 1: in the news, Russell Wilson dressed up as Batman uh
Speaker 1: for his girlfriend crs birthday, her thirtieth birthday. He was
Speaker 1: somehow able to organize a birthday in which Serena Williams
Speaker 1: showed up Beyonce a whole lot of people. She was
Speaker 1: dressed up as some sort of superhero as well. Your
Speaker 1: your thoughts on the whole Russell Wilson experience going on here.
Speaker 1: I think it's hilarious to me to see Russell Russell
Speaker 1: Wilson any picture he's with Sierra Sierra cr I don't know,
Speaker 1: we're showing our age Brandon, like, what is the I
Speaker 1: don't even know. Does she sing something, Sierra? I've heard both.
Speaker 1: She in a group where she's she's she really peaked
Speaker 1: a while ago, Um and I think it's Sia. Yeah, Siara, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'll say Sierra. I think yeah. If you guys have
Speaker 1: a problem with it, email greg Um. But yes, Sierra.
Speaker 1: Whenever he's with her, he just looks like way too pleased,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. He looks like I know
Speaker 1: he's young, he looks like an old man next to
Speaker 1: like Anna Nicole Smith, do you know. I mean, he's
Speaker 1: just got this weird grin. He just can't believe his luck.
Speaker 1: Just kind of gross. And then you add a full
Speaker 1: body Batman costume and he is the biggest dork of
Speaker 1: all time. When you cannot look cool and a full
Speaker 1: batman costume, that's that's because that's who he is. Sierra
Speaker 1: getting some good publicity out of this. You know, she
Speaker 1: hasn't had I don't think a lot of hits lately. Necessarily.
Speaker 1: If you read the Russell Wilson feature they did about
Speaker 1: him in Sports Illustrated, it's him in a bunch of
Speaker 1: his college bros from Wisconsin who are all part of
Speaker 1: the Russell Wilson management team. And they even call themselves
Speaker 1: like his entourage. And one of the guys is like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm the I'm E, you know, I'm the E of
Speaker 1: the entourage and and he and he has a title too.
Speaker 1: I forget what it was, but it's some sort of
Speaker 1: you know, brand manager of Russell Wilson and Russell. And
Speaker 1: it couldn't make Russell Wilson seem less cool or less
Speaker 1: likable that I like that. He needs a whole team
Speaker 1: to manage to not get laid. Come on, Brandon, I'm
Speaker 1: pointed at you. Shot when something gets said that I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have to edit out anyways, that's gonna have to
Speaker 1: get edited out. We gotta put you by the way, Brandon.
Speaker 1: We gotta have your laughter on on the track here.
Speaker 1: That would really help because I see you cracking up there.
Speaker 1: That way, people will know how how funny we are,
Speaker 1: especially me. You know. We also need video because every
Speaker 1: every time this little Wayne clip comes on, the dancing
Speaker 1: Anthony's showing is really something special for people to see.
Speaker 1: The Browns Uh have been in the news quite a
Speaker 1: bit their quarterback situation. Josh McCown his shoulder is injured,
Speaker 1: may not be able to start this week. That means
Speaker 1: they could be forced to go back to Johnny Manziel
Speaker 1: only a couple of weeks after an incident where he
Speaker 1: was pulled over with his girlfriend. You heard about this,
Speaker 1: and so Johnny Manziel in the news. There was an
Speaker 1: article in a report from CBS that they don't really
Speaker 1: love how he's responded necessarily, or they're a little worried
Speaker 1: about how he's responded to this benching. You know, he
Speaker 1: lost the starting job when Josh McCown came back. Maybe
Speaker 1: hasn't been as hard working and whatnot since then. They
Speaker 1: also believe after this latest incident, or they believed for
Speaker 1: a while, that the girlfriend of Johnny manziel um isn't
Speaker 1: necessarily a positive influence. This is from a national reporter
Speaker 1: bothered to report this. By the way, UH reported that
Speaker 1: the Browns have been hoping, you know, Manziel would break
Speaker 1: up with his girlfriend who's in college and decided to
Speaker 1: come live with her. How have they not cut this
Speaker 1: guy yet? How they not just been like, screwed this,
Speaker 1: He's gone. If you're trying to get your quarterback to
Speaker 1: break up with his girlfriend, are you kidding me. He's
Speaker 1: got he's got three linebackers coming on him, a hunter
Speaker 1: of miles and now and he's you're worried about him
Speaker 1: and his girlfriend and cut him. He should do anything
Speaker 1: else will be playing football. Edited because it was too
Speaker 1: informative about today's NFL. I actually hate I hate the
Speaker 1: fact that that his girlfriend even gets brought into this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to sound like a Pollyanna here. Who's
Speaker 1: who's you know representing the shield or something. But it
Speaker 1: wasn't the greatest police report. You know, when you read
Speaker 1: the police report with Johnny Nzel and his girlfriend, my
Speaker 1: reaction wasn't like Johnny made better get rid of that girl.
Speaker 1: It's like, this guy's a total this guy's a total creep.
Speaker 1: And it's for that's such an NFL team view to
Speaker 1: be like, well, I gotta get rid of her, she's
Speaker 1: the problem. Sure, but think about this, how often have
Speaker 1: you ever heard an NFL team be like you should
Speaker 1: get rid of that girlfriend and say it publicly. She
Speaker 1: must suck like she must be she must have like
Speaker 1: three arms or something, and each one of them is
Speaker 1: holding a beer for Johnny. Because it's insane for that
Speaker 1: to be public knowledge. It's insane. Three armed girl, wasn't
Speaker 1: that in a total record? That was? That was something different. Um,
Speaker 1: we have different memories about it. Edited for content again,
Speaker 1: let's go off sports for a second. That was little Wayne.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is a big little Wayne guy. Um loves
Speaker 1: the Magnolia projects in general. All the cash money missed
Speaker 1: the cow, all of them. Um. He has been leading
Speaker 1: in the polls. We're just gonna go political here. He's
Speaker 1: been leading the polls throughout shocking, but Ben Carson has
Speaker 1: surged the head of Donald Trump in four different polls
Speaker 1: in in Iowa. I saw this pop up and it
Speaker 1: just got me thinking, Uh, you're associated a little bit
Speaker 1: with Donald Trump. You helped when one I would say,
Speaker 1: one of your breakout moments of your career was the
Speaker 1: Donald Trump roast, and I just thought maybe you would
Speaker 1: have thoughts, you know, on Trump and what that was. Like.
Speaker 1: I think it's I mean, it's pretty insane, like watching
Speaker 1: the Republicans like in this like lead up so far
Speaker 1: is so hilarious to me. It's like it's like when
Speaker 1: a wrestler, like a professional wrestler, faces some jobber in
Speaker 1: the ring, and the job are like starts to win
Speaker 1: a little bit and you're like, oh my god, what's
Speaker 1: happening right now? The Washington General's yeah, exactly, they score
Speaker 1: a couple puckets. You're wait, are they gonna beat the
Speaker 1: Globe triters? Like, of course they aren't. These people are
Speaker 1: all insane. Um, I thought Trump was has been pretty hilarious.
Speaker 1: My favorite thing he's done so far is when the
Speaker 1: thing got leaked that that he started losing the Iowa
Speaker 1: polls that someone who had controlled his Twitter did you
Speaker 1: see this? Like called Basically it was like, of course
Speaker 1: I would think that they're all idiots, and he had
Speaker 1: to be like, uh, that's like when it was like
Speaker 1: too far for Trump. But that's so funny, like I'm
Speaker 1: losing the polls. These morons like they don't get me.
Speaker 1: Basically they Yeah, there's a thin line between what Donald
Speaker 1: Trump is as a presidential candidate and what you would
Speaker 1: be like as a presidential candidate. Yeah, yeah, it's pretty close.
Speaker 1: It's pretty close. Hair similar, My hair is awesome. Is
Speaker 1: so good looking for a mirror. That's the problem with
Speaker 1: this podcast. This is not you don't get to see
Speaker 1: my hair. What what was your experience like the old
Speaker 1: Donald Trump but it wasn't that the one I went
Speaker 1: to uh and Don Marshall our friend and I'm Marshall
Speaker 1: drunk way too me. It was a great night. There
Speaker 1: was a lot of fun. What was what was your
Speaker 1: personal experience with with Trump that night? He was all right,
Speaker 1: he was he seemed like not the worst guy. He
Speaker 1: shook my hand. I hear doesn't shake hands. He's like
Speaker 1: one of these people, doesn't like that, doesn't like the germs.
Speaker 1: But he shook my hand. I was like, oh, maybe
Speaker 1: he's cool, Like he actually earned my respect that night.
Speaker 1: And then like the next day he was like, where's
Speaker 1: Obama's birth certificate? And I was like, oh, man, you're crazy.
Speaker 1: Edited because we bawled too hard. That's a true story,
Speaker 1: and yet you still make that joke in front of me. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: you're the least Jewish person I've ever met in my
Speaker 1: entire life. Edited because I damn feel like it. I'm
Speaker 1: saying the NFL, he would have been a great coach,
Speaker 1: would have made a great coach. That's so I'm saying,
Speaker 1: would have been. It would have been a terrific GM.
Speaker 1: Ryan Mallett. At last, we cracked ourselves up. None of
Speaker 1: that We're leaving as much as possible. Ryan Mallett has
Speaker 1: been released this week by the Houston Texans after missing
Speaker 1: a team flight on Saturday last week. Let me let me,
Speaker 1: let me continue. He said he was stuck in traffic,
Speaker 1: and so that was the second time he's been late
Speaker 1: to something and they were just sick of sick of
Speaker 1: Ryan Mallet. He's no longer on the Texans. I know. See.
Speaker 1: I think I love that they wanted to cut him
Speaker 1: before the game, but they couldn't didn't have another backup.
Speaker 1: I thought that was funny. I like I like billow
Speaker 1: Brian for his kind of the Shenanigans. I loved that
Speaker 1: the first time he was Lady said he just slept in.
Speaker 1: Ryan Mountain was like listen, I alarm clock didn't go off,
Speaker 1: which I think is like, look, how dedicated is he
Speaker 1: can't even sleep? He's thinking about football so much, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? That's that's like, that's the kind
Speaker 1: of guy you want as your quarterback. But he can sleep.
Speaker 1: He slept in What does that mean? But he goes
Speaker 1: to sleep late because just thinking about the game. Maybe
Speaker 1: he goes to sleep late because he had um, well,
Speaker 1: I don't even want to go there. But there was
Speaker 1: some talk about what what dropped Ryan Mallett in the
Speaker 1: in the draft. I don't think it's a huge secret um.
Speaker 1: I don't think it was so much a substance that's
Speaker 1: puts you to sleep as much as keeps you awake
Speaker 1: late at night. Oh really that that might be well.
Speaker 1: He went to Arkansas something on something in the water.
Speaker 1: He was on are you gonna was it? I'm just
Speaker 1: letting the listener put it the coffee. He likes coffee,
Speaker 1: likes coffee. He liked coffee. I think I think if
Speaker 1: if you, if you want to wake up, I think
Speaker 1: all football players and this is like an idea that
Speaker 1: I want to try to get sponsored. Is if you
Speaker 1: if you're having trouble waking up in the morning, you've
Speaker 1: got to get edited. For little Wayne. I mean, nothing
Speaker 1: wakes you up quicker. If you need to take a
Speaker 1: quick little power not before the game, you're not gonna
Speaker 1: You're gonna get the sleep. But not like the r
Speaker 1: EM sleep that really kind of like takes over right
Speaker 1: and you're not gonna have a deep sleep. You're gonna
Speaker 1: be ready to wake up at any time. Wake up.
Speaker 1: Guns blazes, what's the dumbest excuse you've ever used, UM
Speaker 1: to skip work. My favorite thing about at this was
Speaker 1: that the Houston Chronicle when they reported this story, they
Speaker 1: said that Ryan Mallett said that he was late because
Speaker 1: of nonexistent traffic. That they were just that they didn't
Speaker 1: even felt like they needed sources for that. They were
Speaker 1: just like, yes, Saturday morning going to the stadium, There's
Speaker 1: no way he was second in traffic. Um. I once
Speaker 1: I had an excuse. It was so bad that halfway
Speaker 1: through a bail that was just like I quit, Like
Speaker 1: I re remember I worked at Borders Books. Like, first
Speaker 1: of all, I've been fired from every job I've ever had,
Speaker 1: and a lot of those jobs I lived with Greg.
Speaker 1: For this episode, I think could be Oh, I forget
Speaker 1: sure getting fired from this um more just like it'll
Speaker 1: get canceled altogether. Like without me, there was no podcast.
Speaker 1: Without me, there was no nfl UM. But I was,
Speaker 1: I was late. I was. I had this job at
Speaker 1: Borders Books at my first job in l and I
Speaker 1: was so bored doing this job. And in the mornings
Speaker 1: it was the most boring thing ever, like three hours
Speaker 1: I had nothing to do, and so I came in
Speaker 1: like two hours late, and they were like what, like
Speaker 1: what what? How dare you? Like? Why you didn't call us? Why?
Speaker 1: Why are you two? I was late and I was
Speaker 1: I'd clearly just woken up, and I was like, I
Speaker 1: was like, the gas light on my car. I had
Speaker 1: to go pick up a friend his car broke down,
Speaker 1: and the gas laid on my car isn't working, so
Speaker 1: I didn't not I was running out of gas. And
Speaker 1: then I ran out of gas and I had to
Speaker 1: go and walk and they're just looking at me like
Speaker 1: nodding their heads like we don't And I was like,
Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm lying to you guys, like
Speaker 1: I just I hate this job on board of it.
Speaker 1: They're like, okay on the spot, but I would have
Speaker 1: been fired either way, edited because Greg outshined me. Do
Speaker 1: you know why we went there was because we were
Speaker 1: twenty years old and it was the only place on
Speaker 1: the island that would serve us exactly, So we went
Speaker 1: into the underage drink as opposed to doing our job.
Speaker 1: The other last ide of him news for the day,
Speaker 1: It's gonna be Jim Harbaugh and uh, just a little
Speaker 1: SoundBite from his press conference last week. Jim Harba now
Speaker 1: of course coaching Michigan. Just trying to explain. You know,
Speaker 1: someone asked him a hypothetical and his answer was, I'm
Speaker 1: not into the if this, if that type of scenarios.
Speaker 1: If worms had machine guns, then birds wouldn't be scared
Speaker 1: of them. That's that was what Jim Harbaugh said to explain,
Speaker 1: not answering hypotheticals. I love I love this quote. I
Speaker 1: love it's a great quote. Jim Harbaugh such a poet.
Speaker 1: I just like the idea of Harbaugh, like standing in
Speaker 1: a field where it's like recently reigned and just like
Speaker 1: trying to get worms to use these machine guns. He's
Speaker 1: got his, He's got his. Uh what does he wear?
Speaker 1: He wears like a pullover tucked into the khakis at
Speaker 1: all times. Reddist knows in the game. If you've been watching,
Speaker 1: if you've been following Michigan football. She doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 1: How does this? I mean, does this make sense? It
Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense at all, because if first of all,
Speaker 1: birds are not scared of worms at all, and then
Speaker 1: he's he's giving the worms machine guns and saying that
Speaker 1: birds wouldn't be scared of them, like they're already not scared.
Speaker 1: Do you think a machine guns is gonna add extra
Speaker 1: no fear, I don't think so. We're wes with machine guns.
Speaker 1: Actually sounds like a great movie, don't you think? Like
Speaker 1: a great sort of like low fi horror movie. That
Speaker 1: is the type of movie you'd try to convince me
Speaker 1: to go to. If like if like the Bird, if
Speaker 1: they did a sequel to Hitchcock's The Birds, and that
Speaker 1: was how it ended, Wasn't the worms got machine guns?
Speaker 1: Can you imagine if someone just left a machine gun
Speaker 1: on the ground? Word when worms learned how to use
Speaker 1: like technology. We've been cutting this little than half for forever,
Speaker 1: and now they're gonna get their revenge. Be absolutely frightened.
Speaker 1: What do you think so far? I think this is
Speaker 1: better worse than last week's That was a little way
Speaker 1: by the way, get a bed to it. Every time.
Speaker 1: I think it's better, um, and last week's is great.
Speaker 1: I mean I got a lot of feedback. My mom
Speaker 1: um told me she listened to it this morning. Actually
Speaker 1: she just found out about it because I didn't want
Speaker 1: to tell her. Yeah, um, real quick, of course. Uh,
Speaker 1: she just found out about it, and she was smiles
Speaker 1: ear to ear great stories, she said, And my dad
Speaker 1: as they always listened to your stuff and they're just like,
Speaker 1: what a funny, great guy. And I'm like, wow, okay,
Speaker 1: that's what you think. That's interesting. She only found out
Speaker 1: because my uncle Dave Dr. David Milner Um tweeted at me.
Speaker 1: I didn't even know he had a Twitter account and
Speaker 1: said that that we have international listeners because he was
Speaker 1: listening from Cambodia. He really liked the show. Wow, why
Speaker 1: do you gotta do that? Uncle Dave? Such a nice
Speaker 1: guy our listen. Uncle Dave's great, but he's not our
Speaker 1: listener of the week. Every week we're gonna pick a
Speaker 1: listener of the week. I was blown away from the
Speaker 1: response that we got on Twitter and on iTunes. A
Speaker 1: lot of you left reviews, a lot of you gave
Speaker 1: us five stars, which really helps. It puts us up
Speaker 1: on the comment. I know Anthony doesn't care about this,
Speaker 1: but do it and to you know, tell your friends
Speaker 1: subscribe because it helps and it will help keep this
Speaker 1: show going. Otherwise I think it'll just it'll just get canceled.
Speaker 1: This is the only promotion we're getting. But but the
Speaker 1: real listener of the week that that stood out, I
Speaker 1: don't know what his name is. But his handle is
Speaker 1: great Hojita, which is a good handle. And he tweeted
Speaker 1: at us that he got into a major car accident
Speaker 1: listening to your podcast with Anthony jessel Nick, and he said,
Speaker 1: I'm okay. I finished the episode later. That's dedication. I
Speaker 1: love I love the Caitlyn General listens to our podcast.
Speaker 1: I think it's great. I think it's cool that that
Speaker 1: she has the great uh djeta as a as a thing.
Speaker 1: Listen if you if you're in your car right now
Speaker 1: listening to this, going to the other land, So what happens,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, just kind of let it
Speaker 1: drift and uh. And if when you run into someone
Speaker 1: whoever survives, tell him about this podcast. Well that's the
Speaker 1: thing is if this became our thing, getting into accidents
Speaker 1: while you listen to our podcast, that would be amazing publicity.
Speaker 1: There's no there's no other way we're going to really
Speaker 1: get this thing going. But people would write some articles
Speaker 1: about the podcast that keeps causing accidents, all publicities, good publicity,
Speaker 1: and and it would just get out there. It would
Speaker 1: be an an epidemic. I even I even sent you know,
Speaker 1: I was really impressed with Great Hohita. You know, I
Speaker 1: sent it back. I said, I hope it was worth it.
Speaker 1: I hope it was worth the accident, and he says
Speaker 1: it was. It happened on the ten, uh, the Interstate ten,
Speaker 1: just past the Arizona border, So that was pretty crunk.
Speaker 1: Like that is I like he's using the lingo. That's nice. Um.
Speaker 1: I just like, you know, if you listen to it
Speaker 1: right now, close your eyes, take your hands off the wheel,
Speaker 1: and just see what happens. Were able to tweets Greg letter,
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you the next week. Don't do that.
Speaker 1: We're not We're not responsible for any of that. What
Speaker 1: are some other what are some other reactions? Greg? Go
Speaker 1: through your favorites. All right, let's go through a few.
Speaker 1: By the way, we used to drive on the ten
Speaker 1: past the Arizona border, back and forth New Orleans. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we saw the thing once. You made me go to
Speaker 1: see the thing when we were driving back to New
Speaker 1: Orleans because we were so bored. It was pretty scary.
Speaker 1: Some favorite reactions. A lot of them were just you know,
Speaker 1: really telling us, you know, please don't let the NFL
Speaker 1: cancel us. You know, they hope they keeps going, which
Speaker 1: was very nice. Edited because I talked about Greg Hardy
Speaker 1: way too much. All right? Now the final one, Uh,
Speaker 1: this one's from Nate Muzzy. I like this one saying
Speaker 1: shot it's called Shadowy League clowns. Anthony and Greg are awesome,
Speaker 1: but whatever empty suit didn't laugh needs to go on
Speaker 1: a Caribbean vacation to get his or horror groove back
Speaker 1: because clearly the stress has destroyed their personality. Wow. I
Speaker 1: like how still I kind of groove back reference. That's
Speaker 1: not something you see a lot like. I just like
Speaker 1: the Shadowy leak out. So keep keep um sending comments
Speaker 1: to us or sending tweets. We love it, and we'll
Speaker 1: we'll mention a few each week. And you know, we
Speaker 1: should have our own Twitter hand. We should have our
Speaker 1: own We can do that. It sounds like a lot
Speaker 1: of work. I don't know. You'll run that, right, Anthony, yea, yeah,
Speaker 1: I love. They would not let me anywhere near it.
Speaker 1: All right, let's uh, let's go to that way. That
Speaker 1: was Little Wayne, Little Wayne. Initially that that's the Fireman
Speaker 1: off of really his probably his worst LP, but good song,
Speaker 1: decent song, big fan a Little Wayne. I I set
Speaker 1: that one up because I wanted him to introduce our
Speaker 1: hottest hot take of the week, and I just thought
Speaker 1: we would find one hot take this week, um, each
Speaker 1: week if if we can find one that that make
Speaker 1: a lot of sense. First, yeah, just to give you
Speaker 1: an idea of kind of the hot takes that that
Speaker 1: we're thinking of. Trent It really I was thinking of
Speaker 1: one from early last season that that stuck out to me.
Speaker 1: This is Trent Dilford when you're in Patriots, let's face
Speaker 1: if they're not good anymore. I love that one that
Speaker 1: was after a week Week four. I'm just the Patriots homer.
Speaker 1: I mean saying that when everyone was saying that that
Speaker 1: wasn't just I wasn't saying that that's insane. There were
Speaker 1: two and two. Um this week I had to go
Speaker 1: to the Greg Hardy situation. A lot of dumb hot
Speaker 1: takes on this. Stephen A. Smith said, I completely uh.
Speaker 1: This was one tweet from Steven A. Smith. I completely
Speaker 1: support Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys having Hardy on
Speaker 1: the team. What side are you on? It's so it's
Speaker 1: hilarious to me how people want to go out and
Speaker 1: like defend this. Scott. You have to do is say nothing.
Speaker 1: I have to be Stephen Smith could have been like,
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't know. I don't know what
Speaker 1: they're doing over there, And that would have been fine
Speaker 1: to be like I support Like why do you support it?
Speaker 1: Why would you ever support? Uh? Either one of those people,
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones or or Greg Hardy. Well, not only did
Speaker 1: they say they support it, and they tried to explain
Speaker 1: it away like, oh, yeah, well, he's just being a leader.
Speaker 1: That's the type of passion that we want. Uh, you know,
Speaker 1: that's that's what we're looking for. And I've heard other
Speaker 1: people go, well, that's football, you know, you gotta let football.
Speaker 1: If other players did that, it would be fine. Really,
Speaker 1: if other players slapped the playbook out of the coach
Speaker 1: and the coach shoved him on the field, when does
Speaker 1: that ever happen? If Aaron Rodgers did that, they would
Speaker 1: be like Aaron Rodgers lost his mind? Like what was
Speaker 1: he thinking? What was going on? It's crazy that you
Speaker 1: would defend this. Your your prior record has to matter.
Speaker 1: Greg Hardy seems crazy, But it almost feels like like
Speaker 1: Stephen A. Smith when he sends that out. It's just trolling.
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess that's obvious, but he's just trying
Speaker 1: to annoy everyone as much as gregor you know, Greg
Speaker 1: Hardy seems to annoy everyone, which that's I guess part
Speaker 1: of his stick. But it feels like the Cowboys are
Speaker 1: doing that. They literally said, I don't know if you
Speaker 1: know this in response to this that they want to
Speaker 1: sign them to a long term contract. The Cowboys, like
Speaker 1: if they lose in like an entertaining way, like if
Speaker 1: they lose in something crazy way you talked about them
Speaker 1: all week, they're like just as happy as if they win,
Speaker 1: Like they really are entertainment more than like a real
Speaker 1: actual sports team. To me, it's crazy to say to
Speaker 1: support this guy as hard as they have been, Like
Speaker 1: what would if if they wanted to sign him to
Speaker 1: a long term contract after doing that, Like, what what
Speaker 1: would he have to do to be put into the
Speaker 1: ring of honor? Yeah, we would he have to like
Speaker 1: block their like where they're linning up for field goal
Speaker 1: and he runs on the field and blocks it, And
Speaker 1: they'd be like, well, you know what, he's just fired
Speaker 1: up out there. If we're not allowed to do that, Greg,
Speaker 1: and he cost us three points, Like he's a leader,
Speaker 1: just like you know, light the team's airplane on fire
Speaker 1: before they before they leave town like this guy's great
Speaker 1: put him in, putting him in the Ring of Honor. Well,
Speaker 1: I think what would the what's obvious here is that
Speaker 1: Stephen A. Smith is a heavy investor in Greg Hardy's.
Speaker 1: But was that again his cereal or something? No, it's
Speaker 1: it's a bet. It's a little little that it's like
Speaker 1: it's kind of like serta, only it's just full of um.
Speaker 1: That way you don't sleep too deep. We're gonna have
Speaker 1: to get some other little segment intros. But this segment
Speaker 1: it's called ask Anthony, Greg pick a few of these
Speaker 1: what story? Uh this is from Jordan's White What story
Speaker 1: does Greg remember but not Anthony? Hashtag r j VP.
Speaker 1: I like the the hashtag r j VP kind of
Speaker 1: reminds me of like Alien versus Predator. There's very few
Speaker 1: things I would remember that Anthony doesn't. Although I have
Speaker 1: a terrible memory, your memory is just nine. I have
Speaker 1: no memory. In theory. There was a lot of blackout
Speaker 1: moments that you had, uh ten years ago, but I
Speaker 1: don't really remember them either. Um. One side of things,
Speaker 1: they do remember one day junior year where I heard
Speaker 1: the phone ringing at five or six in the morning,
Speaker 1: and you couldn't remember this because you were not in
Speaker 1: the room and the phone just kept ringing at six
Speaker 1: in the morning, and I was like, why is the phone,
Speaker 1: you know, ringing like it was a really late night,
Speaker 1: crazy things, and I just refused to pick it up.
Speaker 1: So there's no way you could remember that. Okay, I'll
Speaker 1: say this. I remember that I was in jail and
Speaker 1: I was I was calling, trying to get you answer
Speaker 1: the phone. I only in college. I only knew a
Speaker 1: few phone numbers, yours was one of them, and I
Speaker 1: knew you had your own line, so that I knew
Speaker 1: the phone was right next to your bed, and that
Speaker 1: you were in bed and you were purposely not answering it,
Speaker 1: and that you knew you knew the only reason someone
Speaker 1: would call you over and over again that early in
Speaker 1: the morning, as if they were in jail. I didn't
Speaker 1: know that. I did not know you knew what you
Speaker 1: just did not want to have to wake up and
Speaker 1: go bail me out because I had been arrested two
Speaker 1: weeks earlier. I was, well, that's true, I was smart
Speaker 1: enough to not call you when I was there. I
Speaker 1: think I think I called someone more responsible. Wasn't my
Speaker 1: jail the same time as you jail once together there
Speaker 1: was we went to I went to jail twice in
Speaker 1: two weeks. The first time I could put this on
Speaker 1: with my my boss is listening to the first time
Speaker 1: I got it was very hard, Moorlands strung tank. I
Speaker 1: ran into like five of my friends, which was hilarious.
Speaker 1: And now we didn't go together. We didn't go together.
Speaker 1: What did you go for? I think I called Jamie
Speaker 1: osher or rogging because they had cars and they were
Speaker 1: actually was Connor. I remember Connor would call yeah, because
Speaker 1: what would you What did you go to jail for? Uh?
Speaker 1: It was disturbing the peace after yes, the fight, I
Speaker 1: had nothing that that'll be another podcast. We are going
Speaker 1: way way too long, um edited to keep your interest. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think you wouldn't. You would have more fun, but
Speaker 1: you would be You would as soon as you came
Speaker 1: back in your own body, you would be like, oh
Speaker 1: my god, this is my life. Is not horrible like
Speaker 1: I would. I could ruin your life in twenty four hours. No,
Speaker 1: I couldn't really do that much damage to mind. Now,
Speaker 1: I would have a blast, and I would do it
Speaker 1: for a month or whatever a year. If I knew
Speaker 1: I could go back. Maybe not a year, that's it's
Speaker 1: very too long. Um. I would. I would do it
Speaker 1: because you know, you don't have anything to do right now,
Speaker 1: you're working on your show. Um, but it would just
Speaker 1: be nice to kind of, you know, be out in
Speaker 1: your Hollywood apartment and hanging out, going out at night
Speaker 1: like that. Just it almost sounds like vacation. Here's what
Speaker 1: I would guarantee if I if it was on the
Speaker 1: table right now, we could switch places forever. You would
Speaker 1: do it in a heartbeat. I would. You would, absolutely everyone,
Speaker 1: anyone that's that true. They the emptiness when I had
Speaker 1: to you know, the the emptiness with which would come
Speaker 1: over be after a little while when I was in
Speaker 1: your body would would be a problematic. You know what
Speaker 1: I mean. I have two children and we joke about
Speaker 1: it a lot, but it's like the they're the best
Speaker 1: two things that ever happened to me at that like
Speaker 1: they knowing having known that sort of happiness, and then um,
Speaker 1: being thrust into your sort of shallow happiness. It would
Speaker 1: be it would be really tough to deal with. I
Speaker 1: would leave visit your kids. Okay, now it's time for predictions.
Speaker 1: Last week we did uh We did a special game
Speaker 1: called Crunk or Funky Funky Fresh where I went through
Speaker 1: different matchups and then really predict it would win. I
Speaker 1: just predicted whether the matchup would be crunk or funky
Speaker 1: funky Fresh or somewhere in between. People really responded to that.
Speaker 1: People really on board. Uh. We talked about like this week,
Speaker 1: should we do that again with these matchups we mix
Speaker 1: it up. My vote was to just do it again,
Speaker 1: a double down and just go. But then I looked
Speaker 1: at the matchups. You know what, they aren't really either one.
Speaker 1: They haven't really fall into the category of funky Funky
Speaker 1: Fresh or crunk. And I I went through with a
Speaker 1: fine tooth comb and a magnifying glass and I couldn't
Speaker 1: really find it. So why don't you just Greg, just
Speaker 1: give me, give me some different storylines. We either some
Speaker 1: matchups or give me some stories from this coming week.
Speaker 1: And like your memory of I feel like the memory
Speaker 1: of the reaction to the Crunk or Funky Funky Fresh
Speaker 1: segment feels a little skewed. How do you think? I mean?
Speaker 1: I got a tweet that said, uh, you can cut
Speaker 1: out the last been to the podcast. Other than that,
Speaker 1: it was pretty good that guy's not a fan. That
Speaker 1: guy doesn't know what's up. There was a lot of
Speaker 1: a lot of that, like great podcast until the Funky
Speaker 1: Funky refreshtion. A lot of people really liked it. People
Speaker 1: said that it's kind of similar to a lot of
Speaker 1: a lot of things, but you like the I want
Speaker 1: people to love me and hate me. If everyone just
Speaker 1: kind of likes you, like I'm sure your podcast with
Speaker 1: your with the kids that you do. I bet that's uh.
Speaker 1: I've been people like it. I bet no one loves
Speaker 1: it or hates it. People love it. People love it.
Speaker 1: We just had a meet up in London and people
Speaker 1: showed up to that international All right, let's I totally
Speaker 1: ruined your set up for this segment. Um, you can
Speaker 1: really touch me that you have some sources, right, yeah,
Speaker 1: I've got sources all over the league. I mean now
Speaker 1: that I'm behind the shield, now that exists behind the shield,
Speaker 1: then I kind of the world opens up to you
Speaker 1: in a different way. So we thought we would we
Speaker 1: would take advantage of those sources. Go through each game,
Speaker 1: and you will tell tell us what your sources are
Speaker 1: are telling us. All right, let's start with what I
Speaker 1: think is the best game of the season so far,
Speaker 1: Broncos Packers. Um, what are your sources telling you about
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning's future up in the air right now? With
Speaker 1: his early struggles, you know, I think it's gonna be
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning's last year. I can't see him coming back
Speaker 1: for another one. My sources tell me that he's kind
Speaker 1: of getting his money together. He's gonna invest. He's gonna
Speaker 1: invest with Tom Brady's body guru, that guy who is
Speaker 1: up to nothing but good and good things. That two
Speaker 1: of them are going to invest heavily into Greg Hardy's
Speaker 1: I think people are gonna be like, in a couple
Speaker 1: of years, gonna be like, did you know that? Uh?
Speaker 1: Do you know Greg Hardy's You know he used to
Speaker 1: play football. That's how people will know Peyton Manning. You know,
Speaker 1: the greatest regular season quarterback ever. You know, his brother
Speaker 1: won two Super Bowls. Let's talk Bengals Steelers. Big game
Speaker 1: in the a f C North year. Steelers gotta be
Speaker 1: a little nervous. Ben Roethlisberger likely to return for this game.
Speaker 1: They have to win or the a f C North
Speaker 1: is over. They'd be four games back. They there's no
Speaker 1: way they're gonna win the division. This is a game
Speaker 1: they have to get. What are your sources telling you
Speaker 1: about this game? And my sources tell me that the
Speaker 1: students are kind of overmatched. You know, the Bengals are
Speaker 1: planned on all cylinders. They're really doing well. Dalton's having
Speaker 1: a great, great season so far. But because this game
Speaker 1: is going to have a playoff atmosphere, the Banks are
Speaker 1: gonna lose by thirty five points and Dalton will have
Speaker 1: a hundred interceptions. That's what sources a hundred. How would
Speaker 1: your sources be so involved that they actually know what's
Speaker 1: gonna go and gonna happen in the game. I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna reveal my sources. I just wanted to dance a
Speaker 1: little bit Seahawks and Cowboys, getting everyone thinking about that
Speaker 1: playoff game from almost a decade ago where Tony Romo
Speaker 1: Bob Bold the snap. Tony Romo will not play in
Speaker 1: this game, but Dez Bryant might. His status up in
Speaker 1: the air this week. What do your sources tell you
Speaker 1: about desert status? Does Brian status my sources went on
Speaker 1: his Facebook page? Does Briant is single? Terri's the coroner?
Speaker 1: That was a little way. What do I why do
Speaker 1: my other notes. Listening to the podcast was like col
Speaker 1: Anthony when his jokes are terrible column, it was a
Speaker 1: great that made me laugh so hard. Finally, um, I'm
Speaker 1: really excited about this game. The Carolina Panthers and the
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. What a matchup. I mean, the Indianapolis Colts
Speaker 1: are struggling. One of the most surprising stories of the year.
Speaker 1: So many people expected Andrew Luck to be an m
Speaker 1: VP candidate this year. Instead, he hasn't been a top
Speaker 1: twenty quarterback. I mean, he is hurting them right now.
Speaker 1: And to me, this is a game that's fascinating because
Speaker 1: he's facing what I think is really the other best
Speaker 1: quarterback under thirty years old, Cam Newton. So it's kind
Speaker 1: of the two young guns for the first time. They're
Speaker 1: facing off. Chuck Pogano is on the hot seat. The
Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers are undefeated, They're the team that could be
Speaker 1: going to the super Bowl. There's a it's a huge
Speaker 1: build up to this game, Anthony, What are your sources
Speaker 1: telling you about Panthers Colts? Greg They tell me it's
Speaker 1: gonna be crunk. I can't believe their second episode this
Speaker 1: is it feels it feels like an anniversary. It feels
Speaker 1: special this Uh, it's way too much like your your
Speaker 1: old boss, Jimmy Fallon just sitting there cracking up at
Speaker 1: its own jokes. The Little Time. Yep, it's very much
Speaker 1: like that, but mine jokes are great, and I have
Speaker 1: a podcast Fallon. Uh and that was Anthony's sources, that
Speaker 1: was little Wayne. Alright, Greg, let's wrap this puppy up.
Speaker 1: Let's get on a positive note. How we haven't talked
Speaker 1: about them yet? How are my god children? How are
Speaker 1: Ellis and Walker? That's right? Um? No, I know, like
Speaker 1: last week, you know it was. It was cool, unbelievable
