Speaker 2: Okay, you start? So there was an article out last week, Greg,
Speaker 2: we go for the hard hitting news about wearing socks
Speaker 2: to bed. I think I talked to you a little
Speaker 2: bit about this. Just are you a person that wears
Speaker 2: you socks to bed? Because apparently it's as bad as
Speaker 2: sleeping in a toilet. There's like cockroach feces on it.
Speaker 2: There's like all the disgusting dirt, and then people are
Speaker 2: actually putting that in your bed. Thoughts on wearing socks
Speaker 2: to bed?
Speaker 1: Yes? Or no? One hundred thousand percent No, did.
Speaker 2: You do it? Well, you're a very sweaty person, so
Speaker 2: you probably can't.
Speaker 1: Like I'm showering, I'm yeah, my daily activity. Whatever I
Speaker 1: wear throughout the course of any part of my day,
Speaker 1: there is going to be a buffer, which is a
Speaker 1: shower prior to me getting underneath the covers. There is
Speaker 1: no like go in raw dog with what I'm wearing
Speaker 1: all day and getting into bed like that's not happening.
Speaker 1: There's a shower, there's a fresh pair of pants, a
Speaker 1: fresh pair of shorts, whatever it is. Before I get
Speaker 1: pull those sheets down and get under the covers. There's
Speaker 1: nothing on my body that was worn for one minute
Speaker 1: during the day.
Speaker 2: When I get in bed, except for when you came
Speaker 2: on the road with that outfit that you wore for
Speaker 2: twos drinking.
Speaker 1: No, I'll wear it during the day, I just won't
Speaker 1: get in bed with it. So full disclosure on that
Speaker 1: on that story, because I know that made the Calm
Speaker 1: Dound podcast weeks ago. I have a So here's what
Speaker 1: I pack and my and my wonderful wife, she's the
Speaker 1: one who actually passes for me. So I'm like that
Speaker 1: guy who doesn't pack his own shit. Like when I
Speaker 1: when I open my suit the morning of the game,
Speaker 1: I have no idea what it's looking. I have no
Speaker 1: idea what it looks like. I don't have a clue
Speaker 1: with anything in.
Speaker 2: My dad cast.
Speaker 1: So I wear.
Speaker 3: Matt Lauren look and don't blame Lauren, sho's busy dealing
Speaker 3: with the twelve kids.
Speaker 2: Come on, Matt, be better, Okay, next.
Speaker 1: Anyway them, we'll save that. We'll save that for episode
Speaker 1: sixty six. So I show up in like a casual.
Speaker 1: I show up in like a casual offit when I
Speaker 1: fly in, and then I bring an outfit for dinner,
Speaker 1: and then I typically fly home if I have a
Speaker 1: chance to change after the game, I'll just put on
Speaker 1: what I flew home. And so I only bring the
Speaker 1: outfit I wear, and then I have to pack an
Speaker 1: outfit for dinner and a suit, and then like all
Speaker 1: my toiletruy shit. It's like that's all I bring. I'm
Speaker 1: a minimalist. I don't bring any extra shoes. I wear
Speaker 1: one pair of shoes. I wear them the whole weekend.
Speaker 1: I'm a minimalist. That night we went to dinner and
Speaker 1: it was in the hotel and everyone was kind of casual.
Speaker 1: So I was like, I don't need to put on
Speaker 1: like jeans or like long pants and a collared shirt.
Speaker 1: And I was like, I'm just gonna wear what I
Speaker 1: have on the problem is that was only intended to
Speaker 1: fly in. Then I was supposed to see everybody for
Speaker 1: dinner in a different outfit and then fly home in
Speaker 1: that outfit from the day before, and not see anyone.
Speaker 1: So my issue was it was a night it was
Speaker 1: a night game. So we had like a morning production meeting.
Speaker 1: So I showed up, said hide, everyone came to dinner,
Speaker 1: same outfit. That's my next day casual outfit. I'm just
Speaker 1: not supposed to wear it to dinner. So I literally
Speaker 1: saw them at four pm and until like noon the
Speaker 1: next day, every time anyone saw me, I was exact outfit. Amazing.
Speaker 1: I had toothpras and I had toothpaste on my pants.
Speaker 1: That's that's it was great.
Speaker 2: Sure you did, so it was.
Speaker 1: It was, It wasn't It wasn't great. So that's so
Speaker 1: that's that story. That's why I had on the same clothes.
Speaker 1: But long story short, No, I'm not getting in bed
Speaker 1: with anything that I wear throughout the course of the day,
Speaker 1: starting fresh, shower, clean clothes, bed start the next morning. Okay.
Speaker 3: So to give you a little context again on all
Speaker 3: these these are just questions that like Aaron and I
Speaker 3: go through. But we love a guy's perspective, so I
Speaker 3: won't even ask you the under we're inside out because
Speaker 3: that's we don't even need that for this one.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 3: Judging strangers and knowing their backstory without talking to them.
Speaker 3: So Aaron and I have this thing. You know, Erin
Speaker 3: very well now is having spent the last year and
Speaker 3: a half with her on the road.
Speaker 2: I will sit down at a restaurant.
Speaker 3: I will see a couple or friends or a group
Speaker 3: of people I have diagnosed. Like, the diagnostics is crazy.
Speaker 3: I'm like, I've given them jobs, I've given them or
Speaker 3: I know what the drama. Yeah, like I know what
Speaker 3: they're fighting about. I know that there's like drama in
Speaker 3: their marriage.
Speaker 2: Are you good?
Speaker 3: I feel like you would they I already know the
Speaker 3: answer to this. Are you good about assessing the city?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Okay, absolutely, right, absolutely, I know if it's their first date,
Speaker 1: their last date, if they've been going together for a
Speaker 1: long time. Shit's good at home. Shit's not good at home.
Speaker 1: It's just a makeup date because the husband forgot her birthday. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I gotta, I gotta. And again, if you ask me,
Speaker 1: I've got nailed. Obviously, I can never confirm any of
Speaker 1: my preconceived notions.
Speaker 2: We should actually do that. We should all go out.
Speaker 3: We should diagnose someone in the restaurant and then go
Speaker 3: up to them and see if what we think is
Speaker 3: actually happening. It's only fun if we're all together.
Speaker 1: Though we think they're on their first date, they been
Speaker 1: married for thirty five years.
Speaker 3: Let's find out. Let's see how good we are at
Speaker 3: this game.
Speaker 2: I'm into do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, fair enough, that's a good exercise for sure.
Speaker 2: Okay, our next one, Chris I had a mishap where
Speaker 2: she lets Steve, her boyfriend, handle the details of a
Speaker 2: friend's wedding that they went to this past summer. She
Speaker 2: didn't get all the details. She ended up thinking that
Speaker 2: she looked like one of the band members that was
Speaker 2: performing at the wedding. Is it your responsibility to properly
Speaker 2: inform your wife of the dress code or her responsibility
Speaker 2: to find out.
Speaker 1: That's her responsibility. Oh yeah, there's not a lot of
Speaker 1: And listen, I'm just speaking from my own perspective in
Speaker 1: my own marriage. There's zero logistics being done by me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know that I'm not and Aaron knows this. I
Speaker 1: don't know what hotel we're at, I don't know what
Speaker 1: time we're leaving for the game. I don't know I
Speaker 1: don't know who's playing Adam, Yeah, exactly. I find out
Speaker 1: who the teams are the next the morning the night before.
Speaker 1: I'm not a real heavy detail guy. So in my again,
Speaker 1: in my family, in my relationship, my marriage, my wife,
Speaker 1: is what time we're leaving, what's the expectation of the
Speaker 1: dress code, who's going to be there, what is the
Speaker 1: event for? Who are we going to see? What time
Speaker 1: we're leaving, how are we getting there? Who has the tickets?
Speaker 3: I'm doing nothing, Okay, I'm exactly the same way. Erin
Speaker 3: will text me and be like what hotel are you
Speaker 3: out this week?
Speaker 2: Or whatever? I don't know. I'm on my way. I'm
Speaker 2: literally in the car from the airport. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Whatever me. Yeah, the drivers get front that that hotel sounds.
Speaker 3: Great and the best is gonna make me give you
Speaker 3: the address. Are like, all right, we're going to one
Speaker 3: two three Orange Avenue. Mic Yeah, and that's where mean
Speaker 3: that sounds great.
Speaker 1: The driver could be taking me to an abandoned warehouse
Speaker 1: Detroit to murder me, and I'm like, that sounds great.
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to it. How far are we?
Speaker 2: I always say that how far away? And I brought
Speaker 2: one pair of shoes and one sweatshirt.
Speaker 1: And I have one outfit, so you better not change
Speaker 1: the venue on me. Well.
Speaker 3: The backstory though, is it was Steve's friend like that
Speaker 3: was getting married, like these were new friends to me.
Speaker 3: It's his side of the aisle that was getting married.
Speaker 3: And so I'm like, hey, what are we wearing. He's like, oh,
Speaker 3: something casuals. It's a western themed wedding. I walked downstairs
Speaker 3: looking like fucking Montgomery Gentry's backup singing you didn't and.
Speaker 1: You look like from Yellowstone I did.
Speaker 2: I thought, is this Halloween trick or treat?
Speaker 3: And everyone else is in full length like gowns like
Speaker 3: it was a formal wedding.
Speaker 2: I was like, I literally had Greg. I had a
Speaker 2: hat on like you have on right now.
Speaker 3: And I looked at Kelly stef and I go, do
Speaker 3: you think it'll help if I take the hat off?
Speaker 3: She goes, yeah, take the hat off. Well I can't
Speaker 3: because the extensions haven't been washed in four days. I said,
Speaker 3: fuck it, I'm just leaving his outfit on. At one
Speaker 3: point I thought they were going to look at me
Speaker 3: for the entertainment. Halfway through the wedding to saint who's
Speaker 3: bed have these fuck that looks like incredible asshole? Okay, wait, Greg,
Speaker 3: did you have a story?
Speaker 1: I thought it doesn't involve me. But every time I
Speaker 1: think about showing up to a wedding ill prepared, I
Speaker 1: have a buddy through my brother, through my older brother,
Speaker 1: that had a buddy that went to a wedding in India.
Speaker 1: He's he's like a white guy, Like he's a white
Speaker 1: guy from you know, and he showed up to a
Speaker 1: wedding in India. So he's like, I want to be
Speaker 1: respectful of their traditions. Yeah, so he goes out and
Speaker 1: he buys traditional Indian formal apparel. Oh no, he shows
Speaker 1: up to a wedding in India the only fucking person
Speaker 1: dressed in traditional Indian garb. Every other male there is
Speaker 1: in like a suit. He I walk in and I'm this,
Speaker 1: I'm the only white guy in the whole fucking place.
Speaker 1: I'm dressed like coming a fucking movie, and all these
Speaker 1: people are looking at me like this stupid American is
Speaker 1: like mocking our culture. And he's like, little did I know?
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be respectful. So every time I think
Speaker 1: about people ill prepared for weddings, I think of that
Speaker 1: story and it makes me die. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So there was not, Uh, there wasn't an issue of
Speaker 3: disrespecting culture. It was disrespecting theme. In this particular case,
Speaker 3: we went formal and I went western.
Speaker 1: It was the theme of the wedding.
Speaker 2: It was it was in.
Speaker 3: And so it was like, hey Western, but that apparently
Speaker 3: was the night before and the actual wedding was black tie.
Speaker 2: So, standing next.
Speaker 3: To Troy Aikman in a fucking tux, I'm like, hey,
Speaker 3: want my autograph.
Speaker 2: I'm a Shania Twy and impersonator.
Speaker 3: Hi so, and and this is what makes it worse
Speaker 3: Steve doubles down is he's in a tux and he
Speaker 3: goes which should have been my first clue when as
Speaker 3: he's putting the tucks on, I'm like, hey, where's your
Speaker 3: bolo tie?
Speaker 2: Like I thought this was well that that was.
Speaker 1: Gonna be my question, like, at what point did you
Speaker 1: it was? It just the women were going to go
Speaker 1: western and like the men were going to go traditional faster.
Speaker 2: She's you, she's not good with those details. You know what, Greg,
Speaker 2: We show up and we're the entertainment.
Speaker 1: Apparently, listen what my role in the entire event is
Speaker 1: once I get there?
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, Okay. On a flight, do you chat with
Speaker 2: your seat neighbor or sit in silence and keep to yourself.
Speaker 2: What is your etiquette on flight?
Speaker 1: I'm overly nice when I sit down, like because I'm
Speaker 1: a window. Guys have a lot happening.
Speaker 2: When you sit down to like there's a lot happening.
Speaker 2: I know there's a lot happening. Fuck, you're sweating, you
Speaker 2: got ship everywhere. You're calling Karen. The kids say, I
Speaker 2: feel like there's a lot.
Speaker 1: I'm a window. I love sitting on the window because
Speaker 1: I don't want to have to sit in the aisle
Speaker 1: because A my leg gets bumped, and B I don't
Speaker 1: want to get up at the person in the other
Speaker 1: seat has to go to the bathroom, so I but
Speaker 1: I'm always late getting on the plane, so I'm always
Speaker 1: the second person in my little two seat, you know,
Speaker 1: a little pairing to get in their seats, so the
Speaker 1: person has to get up and let me in and whatnot.
Speaker 1: I always say hello, I always you know, hope you
Speaker 1: having a good day, blah blah blah, blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: I get that all out of the way, and then
Speaker 1: it's like headphones on and against the window. I'm done,
Speaker 1: and I'm if I'm not falling asleep, I'm pretending I'm asleep.
Speaker 1: I don't drink, I don't eat. I don't accept anything
Speaker 1: from the flight attendants. I'm I'm in the corner. I
Speaker 1: hold my pee for twelve hours. I'm not getting up
Speaker 1: to go to the bathroom. I'm not getting a drink.
Speaker 1: I'm not getting food. I'm sitting in my corner. And
Speaker 1: when the wheels hit the ground, I reappear to the
Speaker 1: rest of the world.
Speaker 2: Why don't you have water?
Speaker 1: I get my own, like bottled water. Like I'll get
Speaker 1: a snack at like the news place, you know, and
Speaker 1: I'll get like, you know, I'll get a snack and
Speaker 1: an M and M and a bottled water. But I like,
Speaker 1: never accept anything from the flight attendant. I don't know why.
Speaker 1: It could be a twelve hour flight or a forty
Speaker 1: five minute flight. Once I sit down, I'm on my own.
Speaker 1: I'm on my own deal.
Speaker 2: I don't are you Are you afraid of poisoning? What's
Speaker 2: going on? What do you mean? You don't accept? But like,
Speaker 2: what what's happening?
Speaker 1: It's a good I don't know. I don't really even
Speaker 1: have a real reason behind it. It's just the way
Speaker 1: I am. It's I just shake off. No, No, I'm good, No, No,
Speaker 1: I'm good. I just it's like he gives me a
Speaker 1: curveball and I want to throw a fastball.
Speaker 3: Worst rigmatics. I like to go slower. All right, Dogs
Speaker 3: at restaurants, okay or not?
Speaker 1: This is a tough one. Why I'm married to a
Speaker 1: dog lover. I have two dogs. I have two German
Speaker 1: Shepherds that are awesome. They're very well trained. They listen
Speaker 1: for the most part. My older dog really is good.
Speaker 1: So I have a skewed reality of like what an
Speaker 1: obedient dog is. So if you're gonna bring your obedient
Speaker 1: dog and it's gonna lay under the table and not
Speaker 1: interfere with anyone, great, and we're sitting I'm all for it.
Speaker 1: The problem is nobody trains their dogs. Nobody. Everyone thinks
Speaker 1: their dogs are like their kids, and like they're obligated
Speaker 1: and entitled to just like free roam of the restaurant,
Speaker 1: and that everyone wants to see their dog, Like I
Speaker 1: don't want to step over your dog to go to
Speaker 1: the bathroom. So if you're gonna bring your dog, fine,
Speaker 1: but that thing should be lay underneath your feet. It
Speaker 1: should not be in any of the territory of the aisles.
Speaker 1: The waiters should not be stepping over it. The waitresses
Speaker 1: should not be like kicking your dog as they serve
Speaker 1: me my food. And if you can do that, then
Speaker 1: bring your dog. More power to you. But if your
Speaker 1: dog's gonna be like a social butterfly and just have
Speaker 1: its way around the restaurant, then I'm not interested.
Speaker 2: Can you please tell your dog in the Luke Keickley story?
Speaker 2: Please tell curse of that story? Or do you don't
Speaker 2: want to?
Speaker 1: No? I would love to.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, tell it.
Speaker 1: So it's COVID. So it's twenty twenty, it's COVID spring.
Speaker 1: I'm training to get ready to go to Seattle, and
Speaker 1: Luke has since retired and he's training with me because
Speaker 1: the world has come to a stop. So I had
Speaker 1: like a small gym above my garage and we would
Speaker 1: work out in the morning. So it's early in the morning.
Speaker 1: I don't know, it's eight am, nine am, whatever it is,
Speaker 1: and only my youngest son is awake. So at the time,
Speaker 1: he's seven eight, he's young, and he's sitting at the
Speaker 1: kitchen table and he's like having cereal and I'm upstairs
Speaker 1: in the gym and Luke lets himself in the side
Speaker 1: door and he sees TJ through the windows, sitting by
Speaker 1: himself at the little kitchen island having breakfast. But he
Speaker 1: doesn't see my ginormous eighty pound German shepherd sitting next
Speaker 1: to him on the ground. So Luke lets himself in quietly.
Speaker 1: I'm upstairs, and he's like, I'm gonna scare TJ. So
Speaker 1: he comes around the corner real quiet, and he's like
Speaker 1: and he like makes a big, like startling noise to
Speaker 1: try to scare TJ. Well, my dog whose name is Tucker,
Speaker 1: my older male. He jumps into action and he stands up.
Speaker 1: You know, he's big. Now he's like and he so
Speaker 1: I hear Tucker go crazy, So I I come running
Speaker 1: down the stairs from upstairs in the gym, and he
Speaker 1: has Luke pinned up against the wall.
Speaker 2: Goes with you that don't know who Luke is.
Speaker 1: Not small, no, not small, all pro Hall of Fame linebacker,
Speaker 1: and he has Luke pinned up against my kitchen wall
Speaker 1: and he is just wo whoo whoo whoo woo woo
Speaker 1: woo woo. And what he's doing is dying. He's up
Speaker 1: against the wall like pinned, like frozen. And I come
Speaker 1: down and I give him like the friend command that
Speaker 1: tells him to just like let his guard down and
Speaker 1: go back to his little bed. And to this day,
Speaker 1: when Luke comes over our house, he's like, where's Tucker,
Speaker 1: and like Tucker has to come over, and like he'll
Speaker 1: give him a little pet, but like he he has
Speaker 1: been startled. It's like a run joke. Every time I
Speaker 1: see Luke, I'm like, hey, don't worry, Tucker's not here.
Speaker 1: He's not going to pin you against the wall.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, that takes a lot to scare that guy.
Speaker 2: That's great. Great.
Speaker 3: I know you have a vacation to get to, but
Speaker 3: hold on this. I really need to know your thoughts
Speaker 3: on this, because you're such a gentleman. You're a great husband,
Speaker 3: You're a great father, You're a great teammate.
Speaker 2: These kids are so well behaved and lovely and I
Speaker 2: want Max Stole to be just like them. Yes, all
Speaker 2: of the above, thank you.
Speaker 3: But if your wife wants to go get a Starbucks
Speaker 3: and you guys are on a connecting flight okay, and
Speaker 3: you've heard the announcement like they're boarding yours now again,
Speaker 3: you get on late to the plane like I do,
Speaker 3: So this may, you know, be an indication of what
Speaker 3: you're going to say, but she wants to go get
Speaker 3: a Starbucks, and you're like, hey, we're cutting it close,
Speaker 3: like don't go get a Starbucks. But she's like, hey, yo,
Speaker 3: I'm going to I want to. So you go to
Speaker 3: the plane and then the plane is going to take
Speaker 3: off and she's not there yet.
Speaker 2: Do you get off the plane and make sure that
Speaker 2: she is with you?
Speaker 1: Or this guy?
Speaker 3: The guy left without his wife. He was like, she
Speaker 3: took too long. I told her not to go to Starbucks.
Speaker 3: What would you do?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I probably wouldn't board with Outer because you don't know,
Speaker 1: it's probably been like a whisp. Sure, I probably didn't
Speaker 1: have it. The problem is I probably hurt. My boarding
Speaker 1: pass was probably on her phone. Yes, but you know,
Speaker 1: but I think if I put myself in that situation,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have boarded the plane with Outer. There would
Speaker 1: have been like a whisper fight, you know, like a
Speaker 1: really like silent whisper fight, saying like why are you
Speaker 1: going to get a Starbucks right now? There would have
Speaker 1: been like a whisper, like a whisper fight back and forth,
Speaker 1: where like we think we're the only like everyone knows
Speaker 1: you're fighting, but you think no one knows you're fighting,
Speaker 1: you know, so there probably would have been like one
Speaker 1: of those going on. Hopefully I would have won the fight.
Speaker 1: Unlikely that I did. Ye, if there was no line
Speaker 1: at Starbucks, I probably would have hung tight. And yeah,
Speaker 1: I probably I would not have boarded the flight without her.
Speaker 1: That's that's I could prove that happened. That would be
Speaker 1: the case. But if she put us in that position,
Speaker 1: it wouldn't. The whisper fight would have escalated.
Speaker 2: The whisper fight. Is this a common Olsen term? A
Speaker 2: whisper fight?
Speaker 1: So my wife and I always had this joke, like
Speaker 1: when the twins were little, we we didn't sleep for
Speaker 1: like a year. In our again it was probably two months,
Speaker 1: but in our mind it's a year, and like we
Speaker 1: would we had this running joke that like as long
Speaker 1: as in the morning, whatever happened in the middle of
Speaker 1: the night didn't count. So like the twins went sleep,
Speaker 1: they'd alternate, you're tired, you're being mean, Like whatever we
Speaker 1: whisper fighted in the middle of the night, when we
Speaker 1: woke up in the morning, like when we when our
Speaker 1: eyes opened and it was morning time, we would like
Speaker 1: check in and be like, are we good, Like nothing
Speaker 1: that happened, nothing that happened throughout the night counted. We'd
Speaker 1: start fresh in the morning, and the whisper fights they
Speaker 1: don't count. So so that was kind of are like
Speaker 1: deal for us and it got us through like the
Speaker 1: first year of having the twins, and we've always tried
Speaker 1: to stick to that plan, Like if we're gonna fight,
Speaker 1: we got to fight, but if we're whisper fighting, it
Speaker 1: doesn't count.
Speaker 2: I just trying to get a sense of what whisper
Speaker 2: fighting is because in our house it'd be like there's
Speaker 2: such an asshole, like but I can't imagine whispering.
Speaker 1: Like what's a whisper fighting is? So like whisper fighting
Speaker 1: is like stop, you need a fucking Starbucks now we're
Speaker 1: about to board the plane. Get a Starbucks on the plane,
Speaker 1: or like, you know, when when the babies were small,
Speaker 1: it was like I'm fucking trying. Why don't you try
Speaker 1: to put them asleep? You're gonna wake up? There's this
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like you want to say everything,
Speaker 1: but you're talking like I'm trying. What do you think
Speaker 1: I'm doing? You know, so that whisper fighting is like
Speaker 1: not a real fight, and we were. We were on
Speaker 1: the same page with that, so that that got us.
Speaker 1: That's why we were able to get through having twins.
Speaker 2: We call that a mister and missus in our house.
Speaker 2: If you're having a fight, well we had a mister
Speaker 2: and missus yesterday. It wasn't good.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, and as long as you make as long
Speaker 1: as you don't end the day or start the day
Speaker 1: on whatever that fight is, it's good. As long as
Speaker 1: it doesn't linger, you're good.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 3: So Greg, I'd be remissed because Aaron is very great
Speaker 3: at impersonations. She's done it of Sean McVay, she's done
Speaker 3: it of myself, she's done it of you and keV.
Speaker 3: I need you to give me your best Aaron Andrews impersonation.
Speaker 3: It could be anything. It could be on the sideline,
Speaker 3: it could be in a meeting, it could be at
Speaker 3: dinner the night before.
Speaker 2: I need you to put together and think about it.
Speaker 3: I don't want you to rush, and I'm putting you
Speaker 3: on the spot here, but this chick is great calling
Speaker 3: out other.
Speaker 2: People, so I think that you need to.
Speaker 3: Having spent the most time with her over the last
Speaker 3: year and a half on the road in various you
Speaker 3: know positions, give me your best Aaron Andrews impersonation in
Speaker 3: any setting.
Speaker 1: Wow, this is this is a lot of pressure. I
Speaker 1: this is a lot of pressure. I'm not prepared. This
Speaker 1: is a PROMPTU. I would love to hear Aaron's impression
Speaker 1: of me. First of all.
Speaker 2: Okay, Saron gomp. You know I can do it whenever
Speaker 2: it is when I don't want to say the team
Speaker 2: because I don't want to put them on the spot.
Speaker 1: But we were at I know what, you what, it's
Speaker 1: my favorite. We're all.
Speaker 3: By the way, very few people can make Aaron cry laughing.
Speaker 3: This is Greg Olsen to her on like a daily affair.
Speaker 2: Every week in our meetings. I asked him, you know
Speaker 2: how I asked you, Chris, if you took a xanax
Speaker 2: when you do our end gate breaks because you're like
Speaker 2: and the Bears are losing forty one to nothing.
Speaker 1: Can we talk about then before.
Speaker 2: We tell you why I actually do about it, let's
Speaker 2: talk about it, go Greg. So well, this turned from
Speaker 2: I need to make fun of Aaron. So now we're
Speaker 2: back on.
Speaker 1: Hey, we're going to we're going to get to Erin
Speaker 1: in a minute. But I said this to Aaron the
Speaker 1: other day actually at our production meeting. If I have
Speaker 1: a great off, a great replay, I'm like, this is
Speaker 1: gonna be a great moment of the game. You can
Speaker 1: bet your bottom dollar I'm gonna get whispered in my ear.
Speaker 1: We're gonna go to Crissa with a game break one
Speaker 1: hundred out of one hundred times, one hundred out of
Speaker 1: one hundred times. And I'm like, that was the most
Speaker 1: interesting play of the last forty five I had nothing
Speaker 1: to say for forty five minutes. I got a great play.
Speaker 1: It's not a cool point. We're gonna go to Chris
Speaker 1: on a game break, and then it's like, thanks, keV. Thanks.
Speaker 1: Here we have the Vikings, the Vikings, and the Chargers.
Speaker 1: Fourth quarter, justin Herbert going back connects Mike Williams six points,
Speaker 1: cuts the lead to twenty seven, twenty four. Back to you, keV. keV,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like point three and by
Speaker 1: that point three plays have been run and no one
Speaker 1: gives a shit about my point from four plays ago.
Speaker 2: But I crying, go babe.
Speaker 3: I have to say just keV, because I want to
Speaker 3: say all your guys name, but there's twelve of you
Speaker 3: on the staff. So I can't get through up, so
Speaker 3: I just got to cut it down to keV okay,
Speaker 3: I put a side where.
Speaker 2: The game's breaks come through. Half the time, I'm not
Speaker 2: paying attention.
Speaker 3: All I hear is let's go to Carissa, and I'm
Speaker 3: quickly hoping that it's the right highlight cheat that I
Speaker 3: have in front of me, because half the time I'm
Speaker 3: talking to somebody else or saying something inappropriate and praying
Speaker 3: that it doesn't end up on the microphone. I was like,
Speaker 3: I've had so many panic moments where Terry Bradshaw's been
Speaker 3: sitting next to me and saying God knows what, and
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, I hear, let's go to Chrissa,
Speaker 3: and I'm like having to get out of his mouth
Speaker 3: because I'm like, this guy, you never know what you're
Speaker 3: gonna get. But anyways, so I said, Chrisen took like
Speaker 3: a xanax on doing those production meetings. Greg is again
Speaker 3: one of the best teammates I've ever had, and like
Speaker 3: he is in our production meetings, I just have to
Speaker 3: say this and you ask me what my favorite line is,
Speaker 3: and then he can absolutely bury me.
Speaker 2: Right now. He comes to production meetings and he's ready,
Speaker 2: like it's not a whisper. It is like I asked
Speaker 2: him this past weekend, I go, did you take speed?
Speaker 2: Like He's just like, so, we have to tell America
Speaker 2: the story. Like, we have to tell America the story.
Speaker 2: And I sit there. Rich Gross another one of my
Speaker 2: whole time favorites whom I die for and I love
Speaker 2: each other all the time with Greg because we love
Speaker 2: him so much and we're just like, like, it's insane.
Speaker 2: But Greg, last year we were talking about a defense.
Speaker 2: We had a really fun meeting and actually Greg brought
Speaker 2: us all gifts. City brought us like tequila, and we
Speaker 2: started drinking it and it was so much fun. And
Speaker 2: we allow Greg to have the floor and he sits
Speaker 2: there and he basically diagnoses the whole game. He gives
Speaker 2: us his thoughts on everything. He's mid sentence, he's like,
Speaker 2: just you know, talking to us about this defense, and
Speaker 2: he goes, Guys, I just have to tell you. He
Speaker 2: sticks his giant paw in a bowl of tortilla chips,
Speaker 2: he shut it in his mouth, and he goes, their
Speaker 2: defense isn't a real free fall. I looked like it,
Speaker 2: and I was like, I'm just ceased. They're in a
Speaker 2: free fall.
Speaker 1: That's a true story. Yeah, I'll be honest. I gave
Speaker 1: my best follow up. I had like four baskets and
Speaker 1: chips in the meeting this past week in Kansas City.
Speaker 1: I hadn't eaten all morning, and.
Speaker 2: You don't, attendant, So how could you?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're not You're not accepting anything she's offering this guy,
Speaker 3: I don't eat.
Speaker 1: Airplane food with you. I guess my favorite My my
Speaker 1: favorite thing about e A is I don't know if
Speaker 1: it's much of its like an impression or like my
Speaker 1: favorite thing about e A is she knows she has
Speaker 1: like the story the interview like she has it, but
Speaker 1: as she's getting it out, it's like, listen, guys, I
Speaker 1: don't have a thing. I have no idea. I'm a mother.
Speaker 1: I'm a mother. Do you guys realize? But like she
Speaker 1: has to go through like the whole self deprecate I'm
Speaker 1: a mother. And then at the end she she like
Speaker 1: lays it out. We're like, yeah, Ea, that's your open
Speaker 1: that's your question. You know, damn well what you want
Speaker 1: to say? No one, you're the fucking best and anyone
Speaker 1: who's ever done this, like you got it, Like we
Speaker 1: can skip to that part like, that's my favorite thing
Speaker 1: about EA.
Speaker 2: It's qualifier.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like qualifier, self deprecate. I'm a mother, self deprecate,
Speaker 1: self quali.
Speaker 2: And then I haven't washed my hair in a week.
Speaker 1: I have horrible acne. Have you seen my nose? It's
Speaker 1: a crater. I'm like, EA, first of all, no one
Speaker 1: has seen your zip. No one's noticed since you brought
Speaker 1: attention to it. I still don't see it. And you
Speaker 1: know exactly what you're gonna say, and it's gonna be
Speaker 1: fucking great. So like that's my best thing about EA.
Speaker 1: Like in all, honestly, this is and this is that
Speaker 1: God's on a truth. You could ask my wife she
Speaker 1: coming down here. We actually had a full conversation, like
Speaker 1: when Erin is like in the moment, like yesterday with Mahomes,
Speaker 1: there's nobody better.
Speaker 3: Immediately I was like I texted or I talked to
Speaker 3: Greg before we did it, because I was like Greg,
Speaker 3: I'm panicking.
Speaker 1: No, but like it was, but that was our pregame.
Speaker 1: She's like, guys, I can't do it. They want I
Speaker 1: can't And then she gets on air and it's like, yeah, Erin,
Speaker 1: that's it. Just do like she is. And now she's
Speaker 1: gonna be embarrassed when the when the light comes on.
Speaker 1: She is so good at asking questions in a way
Speaker 1: that comes across organic and natural and personable that whoever
Speaker 1: she's interviewing, it could be Patrick Mahomes, it could be Kelsey,
Speaker 1: it could be whoever their guard goes down. They don't
Speaker 1: feel like it's a gotcha, and she's able to ask
Speaker 1: the question that everybody will on the note, did you
Speaker 1: feel pressure throwing the ball to Kelsey knowing Taylor Swift
Speaker 1: sitting in his box. That's a hard question to ask.
Speaker 1: Whoa That's a weird question to ask. And I'll tell
Speaker 1: you what when Aaron asks it, Yeah, it comes across
Speaker 1: as so normal, It comes across as non threatening, it
Speaker 1: comes across as so fun. And that's why you get
Speaker 1: the answer Mahomes gaber, which ended up being the story
Speaker 1: of the entire game. And like, that's Aaron's gift and
Speaker 1: that's what and that's why every time she goes through that,
Speaker 1: I'm like, Aaron, stop, you know you're going to crush
Speaker 1: the question. You're going to crush the interview. I have
Speaker 1: no patience for the rest of it, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. But like there's no one better. There's no
Speaker 1: one better framing the question everybody at home wants to
Speaker 1: know and getting it in a very personable and fun
Speaker 1: manner than Erin. And that's her gift. That's why she
Speaker 1: is so good.
Speaker 3: I concur it's all about the relationships that you have
Speaker 3: created over your yah. But I appreciate the help, like
Speaker 3: because you do sometimes it going into half.
Speaker 2: I'm like, Greg, what do I A? And what do
Speaker 2: I do? Yeah, but that's why you're good teammates.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a team effort. It's a team effort. That's
Speaker 1: the way it works.
Speaker 3: Okay, Greg, you got to get back to your alohas
Speaker 3: and mahalas say she's sleeping.
Speaker 1: I don't even know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna what.
Speaker 2: Are you gonna go do? What do you do on
Speaker 2: Monday after a game? Like, I don't even know this
Speaker 2: about you. We're always coaching, We're always with the kids.
Speaker 2: What do you do? You don't even like crash open
Speaker 2: like an article or two.
Speaker 1: Nope, Monday is my day. I on a typical Monday
Speaker 1: when I'm in Charlotte, which is ninety nine percent of
Speaker 1: my days for two days a year, My wife and
Speaker 1: I come down here by ourselves, and we always do
Speaker 1: it the week of her birthday. So this is just
Speaker 1: by chance that two days but nine percent of our year,
Speaker 1: on a Monday, we are in Charlotte. We'll get them
Speaker 1: off to school in the morning. Well Karen and I
Speaker 1: will go to breakfast or we'll do something like that,
Speaker 1: and then we kind of go our separate ways. She
Speaker 1: us her tennis thing, I go do whatever. We just
Speaker 1: Monday is our day, my day. The kids don't have sports,
Speaker 1: we don't have practice. I don't read an article. I
Speaker 1: close out all my stuff from the week before, you know,
Speaker 1: close out all those documents on my computer, put the
Speaker 1: you know, save everything to the folder for future reference,
Speaker 1: and just have a day, just collect, regroup, whatever. And
Speaker 1: then Tuesday morning I jump back into it. So Monday,
Speaker 1: I'm not doing nothing. I can't even tell you who
Speaker 1: we're calling this weekend. I need one day a week
Speaker 1: where I'm just like, I'm not worried about a Sports
Speaker 1: Scan article. I'm not worried about a PFF report about
Speaker 1: how Mac Jones does on third and seventh. Plus, I
Speaker 1: don't give a shit for one day, I don't care,
Speaker 1: don't give a shit.
Speaker 3: Greg, you I say this, and I know we all
Speaker 3: like joke whatever, but you did win an Emmy for
Speaker 3: the best I don't know the actual category, but the
Speaker 3: best Newcomer, like whatever. The actual title is on your Emmy,
Speaker 3: which isn't it bullshe you have to buy your own Emmy.
Speaker 2: I think that's crazy, Like, here's the.
Speaker 1: Award and you have to go by I bought my.
Speaker 1: I bought that.
Speaker 2: No, I bet they give it to you. I had
Speaker 2: to buy mine.
Speaker 3: I won one for Extra and I've had to pay
Speaker 3: four hundred and fifty dollars for that thing.
Speaker 2: So congratulations, congratulations to me.
Speaker 1: I'll call Extra back and let them know I'm not interested.
Speaker 1: But maybe they payroll deducted it. To be honest with you,
Speaker 1: I had no idea.
Speaker 2: Probably you probably paid for it.
Speaker 1: As you've seen my my shelves are empty.
Speaker 2: So you and no and Ryan our wonderful producer.
Speaker 3: Because it's a great producer, it's outstanding personality and emerging talent.
Speaker 2: Okay, so here's the question. Did you when you were
Speaker 2: playing did you?
Speaker 3: Because there's all these guys that are like, oh, you know,
Speaker 3: I'll just get into broadcasting after like it's some foregone conclusion.
Speaker 3: Did you a know that you were interested in doing
Speaker 3: broadcasting after you play? Was it something that you were like,
Speaker 3: I'm going to be great at this or like sort
Speaker 3: of when did you? And you won't pat yourself on
Speaker 3: the back, because that's not who you are, but did
Speaker 3: it come naturally to you or has it been sort
Speaker 3: of this process? What's your experience so far been in broadcasting?
Speaker 3: Because the award has come, but how have you felt
Speaker 3: the process?
Speaker 1: Yeah? So there was there was no moment where I
Speaker 1: ever and this is the truth, was there was no
Speaker 1: moment where I said to myself, He's like, you know what,
Speaker 1: my career is coming to an end. I think I
Speaker 1: can go do TV. It really it never. It did
Speaker 1: not happen like that. It really was a very organic, natural,
Speaker 1: kind of random process and it really all started. So
Speaker 1: it was like two thousand I think it was like
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen offseason, either twenty fourteen or fifteen offseason. I
Speaker 1: was out in LA I was in Manhattan Beach by Aaron,
Speaker 1: visiting my buddy Ryan and his wife Natalie, and we
Speaker 1: were out there and I had done some stuff with
Speaker 1: a local regional network back when before Fox sold off
Speaker 1: all their regional networks. There was a regional network called
Speaker 1: Fox Sports South and it was in Charlotte, and I
Speaker 1: did like acc football on Mondays. I was still playing
Speaker 1: you know, Mondays. I would go into like the random
Speaker 1: studio at the Fox office in Charlotte and I would
Speaker 1: do like a recap show that I'm sure nobody watched.
Speaker 1: I don't know if, I don't know whoever watched it.
Speaker 1: I don't even know what channel was on, but it was.
Speaker 1: It was Fox Sports South was the network name. And
Speaker 1: then Fox Sports South did a show called The Panel,
Speaker 1: which was like the year god who was coming out
Speaker 1: of the draft? Sammy Watkins from Clemson was in the draft,
Speaker 1: whoever was and there was like a bunch of draft
Speaker 1: guys who went down to Atlanta. Long story short, I
Speaker 1: did like some regional stuff with the Fox regional network.
Speaker 1: And then that offseason in twenty fifteen, they asked me
Speaker 1: to come in while I was out in La visiting
Speaker 1: Ryan and his wife, to come into the studio and
Speaker 1: do like an audition game and call a game, you know,
Speaker 1: in the studio. So I went and did that, and
Speaker 1: I talked to Troy, and I talked to a couple
Speaker 1: other people like trying to get myself prepared to do it.
Speaker 1: So I went in and did it blind and that
Speaker 1: was the end of it. And then in twenty seventeen,
Speaker 1: Fox asked me to come do a game on my
Speaker 1: bye week, so I joined Charles Davis and Kevin Burkhart
Speaker 1: and I did a three men with them for a
Speaker 1: game up in Minnesota, So that was when I was playing.
Speaker 1: In twenty nineteen, Fox asked me back to do a
Speaker 1: game in a two man booth with Kenny Albert, and
Speaker 1: I did a game in New York between the Giants
Speaker 1: and maybe like the Cardinals or something like that. So
Speaker 1: it really was just like little, tiny, small stuff with
Speaker 1: regional networks and digital stuff that no one ever saw.
Speaker 1: And then Fox said, hey, come on in, which they
Speaker 1: do with a million guys, right, they do a million
Speaker 1: kind of audition type broadcast games behind closed doors that
Speaker 1: no one ever sees. And then they asked me, hey,
Speaker 1: you want to come in on your bye week and
Speaker 1: I said yeah, and really the rest was history. So
Speaker 1: really it was that twenty seventeen game that I did
Speaker 1: with Kevin and Charles Davis at the time, and that
Speaker 1: was really my first moment where I was like you
Speaker 1: know what, this Colne the game thing might be my
Speaker 1: way in. You know, sitting at the studio desk is hard.
Speaker 1: You know, those guys have gold jackets, those guys have
Speaker 1: resumes a lot different than mine. Those guys are different
Speaker 1: as far as their caliber of player, you know, and
Speaker 1: from their career. But very few guys want to call
Speaker 1: games and very few guys can call games. And that
Speaker 1: was probably my first inclination to like, if you want
Speaker 1: to do this, calling games is probably your best avenue.
Speaker 1: And I kind of that's I just kind of dove
Speaker 1: into it, and here I am.
Speaker 3: You're really good at it, and that's I mean, you know, King,
Speaker 3: there's a lot of people that will just you know,
Speaker 3: are more pedestrian sports fans, and you make it easy
Speaker 3: to digest. But also you're good at speaking to the viewer,
Speaker 3: not like they're stupid, but also informing them. It's just you,
Speaker 3: You're very good at it. So just curious if that
Speaker 3: was something that you always were interested in doing.
Speaker 2: Can I ask you? And I know we need to
Speaker 2: let you go, but I was thinking about this. I
Speaker 2: fell going up my stairs last night as I should
Speaker 2: because Kevin and I got bombed. But are you allowed
Speaker 2: when you come home in the middle of the night
Speaker 2: from games.
Speaker 1: No, I'm not. I So like the joke in our
Speaker 1: house is on the days that I'm up earlier or
Speaker 1: I get home late, I'm like, no lights come on.
Speaker 1: I'm using the flashlight to my phone. I'm like creeping in.
Speaker 1: I'm shutting every door super slow. I shut the bathroom
Speaker 1: door to take a shower. You know, I'm like creeping.
Speaker 1: I'm like a burglar. The days my wife's up before me,
Speaker 1: it's like a bomb goes off in my house. It's
Speaker 1: like every door slams, every light's on, the showers on,
Speaker 1: the hair dryers on. I'm like, what why, And she said, oh, sorry,
Speaker 1: did I wake you up? I'm like, what do you mean? Yeah,
Speaker 1: he woke me up. So no, I'm very I love
Speaker 1: to sleep, so when other people are sleeping, I refuse
Speaker 1: to wake them up. It's like it's like a thing.
Speaker 1: So I'm very quiet. I'm not waking anyone up. I'm
Speaker 1: checking all the kids doors, shutting them. I'm not kissing
Speaker 1: them to say hey, Daddy's home, like I'll see in
Speaker 1: the morning, Like you don't need to see me now.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm very quiet and conscious of other people when
Speaker 1: they're sleeping.
Speaker 2: What are your thoughts on this?
Speaker 3: I fall asleep on the couch all the time, and
Speaker 3: I like, if I fall asleep on the couch, leave
Speaker 3: me there, because now if you wake me up, now
Speaker 3: I'm going upstairs and I'm not going to fall back asleep. Like,
Speaker 3: so I probably spend five or seven nights on the
Speaker 3: couch and Steve at some points like are we going
Speaker 3: to sleep in the bed together? Like, and I'm like, look,
Speaker 3: I fall asleep down here, so leave me. So there's
Speaker 3: like a whole thing of like when he should wake
Speaker 3: me up, when he shouldn't. I'm like, never, never wake
Speaker 3: me up. So do you ever fall asleep on the couch?
Speaker 3: And no, no, no, no, am I the only one?
Speaker 1: No? My wife falls asleep one hundred out of one
Speaker 1: hundred nights. She has never seen the opening credits of
Speaker 1: a show and the fine and the conclusion of a
Speaker 1: show in her life.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's me.
Speaker 1: She is.
Speaker 2: She's a mother.
Speaker 1: I've never watched it. She's a mother. I mean, she's
Speaker 1: a mother.
Speaker 2: I'm not a mother. And I fall asleep.
Speaker 1: So the joke is like if I waited for her
Speaker 1: to watch a season of a show. It would take
Speaker 1: me three years because I'd have to watch it. Then
Speaker 1: I'd have to explain to her what happened. Then I'd
Speaker 1: have to rewatch the show with her, but we'd only
Speaker 1: get through half the it. Then the next night we'd
Speaker 1: pick up the back half of it. I'd re explain
Speaker 1: the first half of it, and then we'd start episode two.
Speaker 1: I'm like, it took me a week to get to
Speaker 1: episode two. I don't have time. I'm done. I'm getting
Speaker 1: you guys don't have to watch.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't have that have to watch the show
Speaker 3: together thing because it won't work.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't. It'll take me a year and a
Speaker 1: half to watch episode you know, season one, a Yellowstone.
Speaker 1: The rest of the world will be on season five,
Speaker 1: and we're still sleeping through episode seven.
Speaker 2: Fair enough.
Speaker 1: It just it's not going to happen.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what we're not sleeping through. You're broadcast
Speaker 2: this coming Sunday, can't wait for don't know who's playing,
Speaker 2: but can't wait for it. Or we're going to Dallas.
Speaker 1: We're going to Dallas, but we don't worry about that
Speaker 1: on Mondays. We were about that on Tuesday morning.
Speaker 2: Okay, take the later am, take the later flight. By
Speaker 2: the way, you don't need to come so early.
Speaker 1: Be with your kids. Okay, booked.
Speaker 3: We're going to bring this We're going to bring this
Speaker 3: podcast full circle because the story that everyone is interesting
Speaker 3: it in is Taylor and Travis. I need you to
Speaker 3: give me your best Travis story that you can tell
Speaker 3: that won't get him in trouble. It's not incriminating. It's
Speaker 3: just like a fun, lighthearted Travis story. Because you guys
Speaker 3: have spent a lot of time together. You are you know,
Speaker 3: the tight End community is very close. So give me
Speaker 3: your best Travis story before we let you go.
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I don't know if it's really
Speaker 1: a Travis story, but it is a story from our
Speaker 1: little tight End thing that we do. So Travis and
Speaker 1: I and George Kittle, the three of us own this
Speaker 1: entity called tight End University, and every year we all
Speaker 1: come together in Nashville and we do like a two night,
Speaker 1: three day whatever you wanna call it, like tight End Camp,
Speaker 1: and it's a blast. Like it's in June. We look
Speaker 1: forward to it. So was it the first either the
Speaker 1: first of the second year. Levi's did at our welcome
Speaker 1: party the night before welcome and I promise this will
Speaker 1: come for full circle. They did like a like a
Speaker 1: jean jacket custom stop. I don't know what the hell
Speaker 1: it's even called. They had like in the corner of
Speaker 1: the restaurant where we had the welcome party for all
Speaker 1: the guys, they had like a little like you go,
Speaker 1: you get fitted for your jacket. You can get patches,
Speaker 1: you can get logos, you can get whatever, and then
Speaker 1: you get a jean jacket. So picture seventy five six
Speaker 1: five guys. They all look exactly the same. They all
Speaker 1: look exactly the same, you know, throughout the course of
Speaker 1: the night. I don't want a jacket. But then they
Speaker 1: have a couple of cocktails they end up with a jacket.
Speaker 1: So Kittle has this idea that we're gonna go to
Speaker 1: like Jason Alden's bar Blake, like one of the bars
Speaker 1: in downtown on the Strip, you know, downtown Nashville. So
Speaker 1: it's like Kelsey, Kittle and twenty five all their sticks,
Speaker 1: five guys, but we're all wearing matching ju jackets. So
Speaker 1: we're walking down Broadway. So good and Kelsey, Kelsey's never
Speaker 1: had a bad time in his life, No, not far
Speaker 1: behind them, So like I'm more of like they call
Speaker 1: me Dad. I'm the guy who like make sure everybody
Speaker 1: shows up to practice on time. And I'll make sure
Speaker 1: everybody like, hey, guys, you know we have Jeff to
Speaker 1: like do a meeting tomorrow and like teach these guys
Speaker 1: something like that's my job. They are social coordinators, they
Speaker 1: are the speech makers. They are the life of the party.
Speaker 1: And I'm cool with that. I'm making sure all the
Speaker 1: you know, the trains run on time. And so here
