You gotta look at it this way, unless 43 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,079 Speaker 2: you are a Miami fan. The world had to just 44 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 2: feel really good for this kid last night, Like it's 45 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: a feel good story. In fact, Rich is a Miami 46 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 2: sound Machine fan. I love Gloria st All. I just 47 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: really do think that it's hard to say you didn't 48 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 2: enjoy last night. Who on earth other than Miami fans 49 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 2: were saying, like, yeah, I really want this story to 50 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 2: end poorly. It was a great story, his mom, his 51 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 2: family there, Like the dive on the quarterback sneak that 52 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 2: should have been stopped at the five, and he he 53 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 2: dives And I have a theory that that's still image 54 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 2: of him diving over the goal line. Mark my words, 55 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 2: within a decade, we'll be a statue in Indienda. I 56 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 2: would not be the still images are masterful, But the 57 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 2: fight and the fury, the fortitude to just knock people 58 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 2: over and get to the end zone could. 59 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: Like that could be a logo for him coming could. 60 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 2: Be yeah, oh yeah, that could be a logo if 61 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 2: he went into the merch world. But he's a really 62 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 2: special guy. He's really authentic, really genuine and he took 63 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 2: the world by storm. 64 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: So I agree with Rich. 65 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 2: Unless you're a Miami fan, I don't know how you 66 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 2: were rooting against this dude because he's so damn likable 67 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 2: and what a great storyline. It's lightning in a bottle. 68 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 2: Once in a while, there's a story that that sweeps 69 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 2: the nation like a like a insanity and this is 70 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 2: that moment. Look, I'm not faking the funk. I'm not 71 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 2: a big college football fan. 72 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: I'm just not. 73 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 2: I grow up in New Jersey and it wasn't a 74 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: lot of college football influence. We had the Jets, we 75 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 2: had the Giants, the Yankees, Mets, Islanders, Devils. You know, 76 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 2: we didn't have college football to really care about. So 77 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 2: I didn't grow up caring that much about college football. 78 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: It wasn't until I went to college and I overlapped 79 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 2: one year at Syracuse with Donovan McNabb and I was like, 80 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: all right, college football got into it for a minute, 81 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 2: and since have casually followed. But I always watched the 82 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: championships in the playoff. But to bring it to everyone's 83 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 2: attention to the point where my parents were tuned in, 84 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 2: my daughter and all her friends are tuned in. Everybody 85 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 2: was tuned in to see if this dude came through, 86 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: and you know what, came down to the very end, 87 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 2: which made it even more exciting. So props to everybody. 88 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 2: It was a great night, a great game, and Fernando 89 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 2: Mania is real. And the first question, we've already hit 90 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 2: on so much. What was your favorite storyline of the 91 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 2: whole season? What was your favorite thing that stood out? 92 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 2: His connection with his mom, how he praises Jesus, how 93 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 2: he's so grateful, his likability, how such a good religious 94 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,119 Speaker 2: boy is about to go to s City. That's another 95 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: funny asst word. What about in the if you haven't 96 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 2: read the letter, the fact that they never won, If 97 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 2: you haven't read the letter that his mom gave to 98 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 2: him before the Heisman, when you get a chance read it, 99 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 2: there's a part the whole thing will make you cry. 100 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 2: As a grown man. You will cry reading this letter 101 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 2: from Fernando's mom to him. 102 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: But there's a part in the letter where they talk 103 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: about how she was. 104 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 2: A young mom and they boldly moved to the northeast, 105 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 2: to the Boston area, and then when they moved back 106 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 2: to Miami. The one thing that Fernando took with him 107 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: was his admiration of Tom Brady, and to think tom 108 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 2: Brady's right there, it's gonna be his future boss. It's 109 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 2: a movie. It's there is a movie you and I 110 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 2: discussed before the show. What comes first? The Fernando movie 111 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 2: or the statue in Indiana's another question in itself. What 112 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 2: up Danny g that insane touchdown? Running he jukes the defenders, 113 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 2: two of them, and then when he gets spun around 114 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 2: and he puts his arm down on the turf before 115 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 2: the dive. That's what seemed like a movie to me, 116 00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 2: Like that whole play was like. 117 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: The up the end of his movie. Yeah, it really was. 118 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 2: When you think about the plotline, like young Mom, this 119 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,239 Speaker 2: really could be like a TV movie or a legit 120 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 2: movie where like Young Mom moves to Boston back to Miami, 121 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 2: she comes down with a disease, a terrible disease. 122 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: She has ms. 123 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 2: The Miami doesn't want him because he's not a big 124 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 2: enough recruit. That the whole story. Let he go, Yeah 125 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 2: he's overlooked. He beats that back to beating. 126 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: Miami, like everything about this story. 127 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 2: While his dad sits by his mom's side and they 128 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 2: cheer on and let's not forget the little brother also 129 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 2: on the team, but he not anymore. Yeah, he entered 130 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 2: the transfer portal as of today, and Roberto Mendoza is 131 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 2: the side story. He wins, but he's now looking for 132 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 2: other opportunities, I guess. 133 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 3: And Rich pointed out on yesterday's show that Miami's defense 134 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 3: no joke. That was going to be a big test 135 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 3: for him, and he got bloodied. He was bleeding. 136 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 2: You know, that cheap hit under the helmet, little little 137 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 2: how do you do after it was clear he didn't 138 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 2: have the ball anymore, very easily could have been a 139 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: personal foul. They didn't call it, but I thought in 140 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: that moment, the fact that he kept his cool, he 141 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 2: didn't try to fight back, didn't go at the reps 142 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: like come on, flag like he's a tough soob this kid, 143 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 2: And because he's such an aw shucks religious boy, you 144 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 2: don't realize he's six five to. 145 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: Use the swear word last night he was asked about it. 146 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: My kids, My kids are so scared to say any 147 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 2: curse words that I'll say something like you could say it, 148 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 2: go ahead. 149 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 150 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 2: He was asked about, Hey, you used you use some 151 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 2: curse words. How do you feel about that he. 152 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 3: Dropped a curseword there at the end, something you don't 153 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 3: do very often. 154 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I say, overwhelmed by emotion and just it's the 155 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 4: pinnacle peak. It's like all season when we've you know, 156 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 4: sometimes I've had these cookie cutter responses in media trained 157 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 4: response where it's been like, oh, onto the next game, 158 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 4: onto the next play, and now we did it. 159 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: We did it. 160 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 4: So at that point, I think it was only fitting 161 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 4: to kind of, you know, open the floodgates per se, 162 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 4: probably break my stereotype. 163 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,119 Speaker 1: He's been around coach too long. That's an X rated mouth. 164 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: I gotta love this kid's honesty, but it's his authenticity, 165 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: the fact that he's just such a genuine, wholesome kid 166 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 2: that makes him lovable. And his relationship with his mom 167 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 2: is really heart tugging. But I think the coolest part 168 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 2: of the story. Am I the only one that tied 169 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: that to Tom Brady? 170 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: What's the Tom Brady tie? Mendoza goes, let's eff and 171 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: go oh. 172 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 2: He also said let's flip and go too before like, 173 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 2: Who's who's his future bosson Hero Tom? Tom Brady? What's 174 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 2: Tom's little segment? And whole thing? 175 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't even think about that. 176 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought that was like his little subconscious like, yeah, boss. 177 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 2: But it's also the rally cry of every young person, 178 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 2: young person, let's go. 179 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: You'd be like, hey, dude, you want to go seven 180 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: to eleven, let's go. 181 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 2: I mean that's just the response. Now thinking about going Chripola, 182 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: what do you guys think, Let's go. Let's effen go. 183 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 2: Every young kid with broccoli hair says that, So every 184 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 2: young Alpaca boy says the same thing. But you're right, Rich, 185 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 2: that's a good point. But I think the best storyline 186 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 2: is the fact that this team never won. They went 187 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 2: from worse to first, and he did it with a 188 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 2: kid who was overlooked by Miami. And he comes back 189 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 2: to his hometown, his home school that he rooted for, 190 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 2: to beat them on their field where he grew up. 191 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 2: I think that part of it, the full circle f 192 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 2: you revenge was handled so masterfully and classy, and I 193 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 2: love that about the kid. Well, it's not like Carson 194 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 2: Beck could have won. Too ugly quarterback face. He does 195 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 2: not have. 196 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: I don't think he's that ugly. He looks like, yeah, 197 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: he looks like the son of Igor. Yes, my son. 198 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: He played well, but he lost. I don't mean to 199 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: be rude, but of course this sounds very rude. 200 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 2: When he got hit pretty hard last night he popped up, 201 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't know if you wouldn't if he 202 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 2: had a concussion, because his regular face looks dazy, like 203 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 2: Riches being when he popped up, I'm like, I don't 204 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 2: know if he's okay because he looks like he got 205 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 2: punch in the face every second. Rich subscribes to the 206 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 2: Colin cownt Herd I did monthly and theory that you 207 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 2: have to have quarterback face to truly make it stars. 208 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: I also think, how's the dufe is going to lead anyone? 209 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,439 Speaker 2: There's an interesting storyline that wasn't spoken about a lot. 210 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 2: I mean, his background and his ethnicity was spoken of 211 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 2: a lot. But how conflicted Miami itself must have felt 212 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 2: when there's such a large Cuban community and population in Miami. 213 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 2: You know that there's so many Cuban fans wanting to 214 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 2: see Miami win, but also pulling for their kid, who 215 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 2: they have to be rooting for personally, because how do 216 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 2: you not love the fact that he has four grandparents 217 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 2: from Cuba and he's such a proud Cuban kid, it's 218 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 2: like you and there's a Mexican fighter, Yeah, but you 219 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 2: like the opponent. You're like, oh, but even more so, 220 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: I think in this case, because there's so many conflicted 221 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 2: Cuban fans in Miami right now that are like, damn, 222 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 2: we wanted Miami to win, but we're so happy for 223 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 2: that kid. It's such an unbelievable full circle f you 224 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:05,559 Speaker 2: revenge story of fortitude and overcoming and being overlooked. 225 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: There has to be a movie made. 226 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 2: And I say it again, I'm a sports fan, but 227 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 2: I'm not the biggest college football fan. And man, was 228 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,839 Speaker 2: I taken by this whole thing. And that's the beauty 229 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: of it. He pulled me in. And maybe I'm a 230 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 2: fan moving forward, who knows. But that was great. The 231 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 2: game was amazing last night. We want to know what 232 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 2: storyline stood out to you the most and what stood 233 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 2: out to you the most from this season? 234 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: What's up? dB? I got a question for you, guys. 235 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: I want Iowa Sam. 236 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 5: It's kind of Iowa Sam related because is there a 237 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 5: border or a line where you can't love Indiana's story? 238 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 5: So I'm an Ohio State football fan, so I was 239 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 5: not wrapped up in the Indiana. 240 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 2: Oh again, I was gonna I was gonna say, unless 241 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: you go to Miami or if you're a conference guy 242 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 2: and you're like, you know, screwing the Shore. 243 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, but this guy as an Iowa fan. But also 244 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 5: I would say, in the same breath a college football fan. 245 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: Right. The group tex last night was just it was. 246 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,599 Speaker 5: NonStop with with Sam being excited about this yeah, and 247 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 5: you know, and and taking up in you know, taking 248 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 5: up for this Indiana team. And I just find it 249 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 5: interesting because because of this team that I root for 250 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 5: is a rival. 251 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,439 Speaker 6: And yeah, but I mean, like lit, Indiana has no history. 252 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: They have a history of losing, Like they were never 253 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: pushing bag to everyone in college football. 254 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 6: Like Indiana doesn't even have a rival with Notre Dame. 255 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 6: Notre Dame is like Washington d C. Within the state 256 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 6: of Indiana. And then there's everything else like Notre Dame. 257 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 6: You think of a Notre Dame, You're like, where's Notre Dame. Oh, 258 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 6: it's it's in Indiana. But then you don't think you 259 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 6: think of the state of Indiana. You don't even think 260 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 6: of like the Hoosier is even existing on the football field. 261 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 6: You know, they have no history, So for them to 262 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 6: go sixteen. You know, it's like it's like impossible. 263 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 2: You saw those images from two years ago when there's 264 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 2: like twelve people in the stands. You know, when you 265 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 2: filled out our Fox Sports Radio bracket, you know you 266 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 2: might not think of a Dan Buyer guy. 267 00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: But I picked Ohio. 268 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 2: State because I was like, you know what, I thought 269 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 2: this little fun story would end. And I thought, like, Dan, 270 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 2: probably that back to reality because I remember when they 271 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 2: won in the conference championship, you said, all right, Ice Wax. 272 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 5: I thought that that was Indiana Super Bowl. In fact, 273 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 5: I am on record of saying that there was a 274 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,719 Speaker 5: zero point zero percent chance that Indiana would win the 275 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 5: College Football National Championship because everything had gone right for them. 276 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 5: The Mendoza wins their Big Ten champs, they're undefeated, and 277 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,439 Speaker 5: I did not think that Indiana or any other school 278 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 5: would be able to have all of that come to 279 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 5: them at this point. And it is an amazing story, 280 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 5: and I understand how ninety eight percent of America can 281 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 5: get behind the story. But to your point about Miami 282 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 5: fans weren't behind it last night. You know, as an 283 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 5: Ohio State fan, I didn't care who won. 284 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: They lost. 285 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 5: The Buckeyes lost to Miami and Indiana beat them in 286 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 5: the Big Ten title game. There wasn't a Big Ten 287 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 5: allegiance that I was behind. And I'm just wondering if 288 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 5: maybe it only expands too maybe it's only. 289 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: To that part. There's only in these mess what wuld 290 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: you call them? 291 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,679 Speaker 2: A can you know back in the day be the 292 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 2: monocultural cultural events, right, monoculture events where everyone sort of 293 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 2: locked in. There's always going to be some people that 294 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 2: are the outliers, like, yeah, I'm not really about this. 295 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: There could be some When Game of Thrones the finale's on, 296 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 2: you're always gonna have the one friend. 297 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: That's never watched. I think Dan has a Valorie. 298 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: But but I think there's always gonna be like a, yeah, 299 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 2: I took my daughter to the Taylor shift Erastur, and. 300 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: Someone's always gonna be like, guess what my daughter does? 301 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: Would like tailor swift. 302 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 2: But I think there's someone on the outside looking at 303 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 2: Let's just you know, allegiance aside. A great story is 304 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 2: a great story, and that's exactly what this is. And 305 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 2: Sam sort of touched on that. When you think of Indiana, 306 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 2: you don't think of. 307 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: The football team. I think and all of a sudden, 308 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: they're on top of the world. 309 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that there are there are always going 310 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 5: to be haters for some reason. But I just was 311 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 5: surprised at how someone like Sam who lives and dies 312 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 5: by Iowa football, was also taken up into the world where. 313 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 2: And what was it about the story that you said, 314 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 2: you know what, screw my allegiance. 315 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 6: I really liked this story, like my me being a 316 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 6: fan of Iowa, like it just it does. It's just 317 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 6: on its own, it exists in its own like universe, 318 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 6: like it doesn't because like Iowa and Indiana don't have 319 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 6: a rivalry either, Like there's really no history between the 320 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 6: two teams. 321 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 1: They play in the same conference. 322 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 6: So like for me, I don't let like my rooting 323 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 6: interests like become rose colored glasses or any kind of 324 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 6: like it does. I don't want it to change my 325 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 6: consciousness and my perception of something. This is a great 326 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 6: story no matter who you root for, Like who is 327 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 6: Indiana Football's on field rivalry, Like it'd be Purdue, Like 328 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 6: they're the ones who are probably frustrated right now. 329 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: But as an Iowa fan, I'm looking at and looking one. 330 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 6: I'm looking at this in Iowa fans I'm sure frustrated. 331 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 6: A lot of teams are frustrated seeing Indiana climb from 332 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 6: two years in and. 333 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: How much tougher the mountain. 334 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 2: How much tougher is it to build a college program 335 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 2: than an NFL program. You could turn around an NFL 336 00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 2: program in a couple of years. 337 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: A college program. I think the landscape right now it 338 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: makes it. It makes it easier. But historically, like you 339 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: really have a hard time. 340 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 6: History, Like fifteen years ago, it would take three to 341 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 6: five years just to get maybe get to like a 342 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 6: bowl game. 343 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: But this is the way how he's done. 344 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 6: With the transfer portal guys coming from James Madison and 345 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 6: then all the money that's flowed in from like Mark 346 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 6: Cuban into the program and into Indiana sports, they're able 347 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 6: to make this. Uh, this is why this story is 348 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 6: possible because of the landscape of college football right now. 349 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, pretty amazing. 350 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 2: You could say we're prisoners of the moment, but I 351 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 2: think it's just an amazing story. It was so many 352 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 2: different levels, and I just love the fu side of 353 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 2: it because again, he was overlooked the Loo, They overlooked 354 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 2: him as a little kid, and he came back and 355 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 2: won in Miami. To me, it's just like the perfect 356 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 2: story and you will get that movie. 357 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 6: What up, Sam? Now Indiana has gone the distance. They've 358 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 6: won a national championship there on top of the world. 359 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 6: They're now the hunted, and I'm sure other Big ten 360 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 6: teams are like, all right, we've had enough of you. 361 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 2: Now to start beating you. So we'll say no moving forward. 362 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 2: I couldn't care less about it. 363 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 6: The if Indiana is like another national champion contender, I'll 364 00:16:59,400 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 6: be like, screw that. 365 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: I should take it bounce. This was an isolated moment. 366 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 2: We'll be glued to see what he does in the 367 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 2: NFL because that's the next storyline there for sure, as 368 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 2: Fernando Mania sweeps the nation. So we ask you, Fox 369 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 2: Sports Radio, what's the favorite storyline? Eight seven, seven ninety 370 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 2: nine on Fox and congratulations again, it was a great night, 371 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 2: and in total Covino and Rich style, we have a 372 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 2: few other observations about last night that I'm certain nobody 373 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 2: else is talking about. 374 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 1: Well, we're going to get to that, but any final thought, 375 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: dab I. 376 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 5: Just wanted to say on this whole thing and to 377 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 5: kind of put a bow on it again, how crazy 378 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 5: is it that the team that has the Heisman Trophy winner, 379 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 5: the Big Ten champion, the only undefeated team, and the 380 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 5: number one next to their name. Favor by eight and 381 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 5: a half. Is the Cinderella story, right, like everything, the 382 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 5: better record, they beat everybody, then lost anyone there, the 383 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 5: Heighstcho Trophy winning quarterback, and then it's against Miami, who 384 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 5: we think of as the you. But if we were 385 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 5: to really look at Miami, last team in and an 386 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 5: at large bid had to play on the road in 387 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,239 Speaker 5: their first playoffs. 388 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: The question if they should even be in the playoff? 389 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 5: Yes, yes, knocks off defending national champion, wins in dramatic 390 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 5: fashion against the other feel good story. There was enough 391 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 5: Like if it wasn't Miami, if that was Wake Forest 392 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 5: or something like that, maybe we're feeling different and maybe 393 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 5: we're looking at Indiana differently, but just even the brand 394 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 5: of Miami up against Indiana when Indiana had all of 395 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:33,719 Speaker 5: these advantages or more successes than the Kings did, I 396 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 5: still think going into last night, we're like, man, what 397 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 5: a what a story of those feel good kids? I 398 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 5: think from the loser state. 399 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 6: Very rarely do we root on people who have that 400 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 6: much going for them. But it's because for decades of 401 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 6: their existence, they were nothing. 402 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: They were losers. 403 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 6: So it's like they saved up their Heisman winner, their 404 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 6: Rosebell championship, their national championship, all in one year. It's 405 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 6: all coming out like a like a bomb of confetti 406 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 6: and you're like, this doesn't seem real. 407 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 5: And you guys hit on it, like Mendoza so likable signetti. 408 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 5: As far as shocking as his comments were, when he's 409 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 5: gotten the job, he's even backed off and explained kind 410 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 5: of why he took that tone of Google me, and 411 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 5: you know, he said he needed people to recognize. But 412 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 5: when you've heard him over the you know, even throughout 413 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 5: this season, when you get to know him more and more, 414 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 5: he's more different than the guy that you thought that 415 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 5: was the Google Me I Win guy. And so you 416 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 5: guys talk about likability a lot, and I think that 417 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 5: there was a lot to like about Indiana just because 418 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 5: of a couple of personalities that they have. 419 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 2: And the team first montret they lived by and I 420 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 2: believe that, and I think that's why yep, it captured 421 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 2: us because it's authentic, it's real, nothing felt forced. I 422 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 2: believe everything Fernando says and what the team lives for 423 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 2: and stands for. I believe they put team first and 424 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 2: again props to them. But there's two other observations we 425 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 2: got to get to. And let's just say this for now. 426 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:01,239 Speaker 2: If you're unaware of the next two observations, it just 427 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 2: goes to show you how far out of the loop 428 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 2: you really are. There's a test coming up. We're gonna 429 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 2: do a test here in Fox Sports Radio. It's the 430 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,959 Speaker 2: are you in the loop or you lost in reality? 431 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 2: And to answer your question, Rich, which comes first? I'm 432 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 2: going statue first, because sometimes it takes long to put 433 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 2: out a movie, a decent movie. I wouldn't be shocked 434 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 2: if in the next Budge, in the next cast thing, 435 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 2: in the next handful of years, if they outside the 436 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 2: stadium have that diving statue. It's their greatest moment, their 437 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 2: only moment. I think you lean into that. Hey we 438 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 2: just won. You know, this is our moment. There's that statue. 439 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 2: The image is already iconic. Who said it you, dannyg 440 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 2: That could be his logo moving forward. I agree. I 441 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 2: think they jump on that statue and ride that burst, 442 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 2: ride this wave of awesome. And I think the statue 443 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: comes before the movie. So other observations that are gonna 444 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 2: be a test of how in or out of the 445 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,880 Speaker 2: loop you are. We get to that next, but one 446 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 2: last little question. Our video guy Spot asked us this morning, 447 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 2: when was the last time you got pulled into something 448 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 2: you were a casual viewer of, Like if you're a 449 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 2: casual football fan. 450 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 1: We were like, was it Tim Tebow? Was it Johnny Manziel? 451 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 1: Was Clark? 452 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 2: Caitlyn Clark with the WNBA is a great answerably, Kaitlyn, 453 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 2: because I think I don't think I ever watched. 454 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: A woman's basketball game until Kaylen. 455 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 2: A lot of people it would be like Jake Paul 456 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 2: fighting Mike Tyson or something like that, if you're not 457 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 2: a fight fan. I happened to be a fight fan, 458 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 2: but that would be an answer for a lot of people. 459 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,479 Speaker 2: I'm sure college football, I feel like there's been guys 460 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 2: that have really captivated us, and I think Johnny football insanity. 461 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: I mentioned li insanity in basketball for a second. 462 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 2: There Yeah, stories that just you have to watch just 463 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 2: swept the nation and everybody took note. Like Rich said, 464 00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 2: we live in a world where monoculture is no longer 465 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 2: a thing. Everybody has their own algorithm, everybody's in their 466 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 2: own lane. But everybody was tuned in last night to 467 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 2: see what this team and what this kid did. My 468 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 2: mom hit me up, Danny game. Mom hit me up. 469 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 2: You know my mom's a Raiders fan like you. When 470 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 2: she's like, Ritchie, can you please take me to our 471 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 2: Raiders game next year? 472 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 1: So I could see Fernando. My mom's singing an Appa 473 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: over the phone. Oh that's why. 474 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 3: Mark Davis was standing in the end zone prior to 475 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 3: the game watching Fernando workout, and he was drooling. 476 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 1: Literally. 477 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 2: It's honestly, it's just a cool story. You gotta love it. 478 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 2: And if you don't, like Dampire said, it's either because 479 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 2: you're a Miami fan you have a strong conference tie, 480 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 2: or he's just like yeah. But Fernando himself, it's a 481 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,399 Speaker 2: likable dude. There's something very special about that kid. Yes, agreed. 482 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 2: So all right, next we get to the two observations 483 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 2: we made that if you didn't observe again this also 484 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 2: happened last night.

She did 562 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 2: this and it organically hit and it took social media 563 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,400 Speaker 2: by storm wherever. Everyone started remixing it, making their own 564 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 2: little commercials about. 565 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: It, and my kids were calling her doctor Pepper girl. 566 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 2: Yes, if you didn't know it, man, you must live 567 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 2: under a ride. I found myself pay attention, and I'm 568 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 2: not gonna judge you, but I am. But I'm also 569 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 2: here to say, well, then that's why you got Covino 570 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,719 Speaker 2: and Rich to do this research. We want to keep 571 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 2: you a little. But I found myself walking around my 572 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 2: house being like, doctor Pepper Baby, it's good and nice. 573 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 2: Like you find yourself singing it and you're like, well, 574 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 2: is doctor Pepper gonna do quote the right thing? It 575 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 2: became a big time debate of why isn't Doctor Pepper 576 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 2: acknowledging this. They're not doing it because of X Y 577 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 2: and Zee, and even I was saying, as much as 578 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 2: I like this jingle, Doctor Pepper doesn't have to do anything. 579 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 2: They don't have to pay anybody. They're already getting all 580 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 2: this advertising, free advertising on social media. And maybe they 581 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 2: don't want a jingle, maybe they don't like a jingle. 582 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 2: They shouldn't be forced to do anything. But if they did, 583 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: what a cool story, And you were thinking not, maybe 584 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,479 Speaker 2: it doesn't go along with their new ad campaign. There 585 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 2: could be reasons why they do or don't do this. 586 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,719 Speaker 2: But you're watching the National Championship last night. The first 587 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 2: commercial break, I'm in earshot and I'm like, oh my god, 588 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 2: what did I just hear? 589 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:19,199 Speaker 8: Doctor Pepper bay Bee is good and nast, Doctor pepe 590 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 8: bay Bed and nut, Doctor Pepper bay Bed. 591 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: And nast. 592 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 2: And it took social media by storm Shore Fernando, Indiana, Miami. 593 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 2: All that was trending. But you know what else is trending? 594 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 2: Dr Pepper and Doctor Pepper girl. Because everybody who lives 595 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 2: a social media lifeer has even the smallest footprint probably 596 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 2: caught wind of this buzz and this story and this 597 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 2: girl and everybody else remixing that jingle, and everybody seemed 598 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 2: to like it, and Doctor Pepper did the right thing. 599 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 2: They let it simmer, they let it sit, and bam, 600 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 2: when millions were watching the championship last night, they snuck 601 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 2: that in and everybody started trending on it again. So 602 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 2: they capitalized twice. They played it perfect and they did 603 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 2: the right thing. And my guess is they paid this 604 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 2: social media influenced girl two hundred fifty. 605 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: I guess. My guess is two hundred. 606 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 2: My guess is like twenty five thousand dollars because she's 607 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 2: gonna hit the late night circuits in the morning shows 608 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 2: and they're gonna ask her and she doesn't want to 609 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 2: say something that makes Doctor Pepper look like Chief Skates. 610 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 2: I think it opens up their brand to a whole 611 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 2: different demographic and it makes it kind of cool. And 612 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 2: I think you'll probably see more ads on Super Bowl. 613 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 2: Aren't you the guy that loves to say? Hey, let 614 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 2: me ask ai? You know what jingle singers make? You 615 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 2: could sell a national ad campaign and it usually goes 616 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 2: are jingle singers doing the late night circuit. 617 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: No, but that doesn't get paid. You don't get this 618 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 1: was a bigger story. Nobody knows jingle singers. What jingle singers? 619 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 8: Do? 620 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: You know? But why would they just willy nilly? 621 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 2: Just I know you think Pharrell works for cheap Farrell's 622 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 2: made some popular jingles. Garry Manilow has made some popular jingles. 623 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: Look it up. You think he got paid peanuts for that? 624 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 3: But they also had to pay for the rights to 625 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 3: the jingle rich so yeah, you know what I mean, 626 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 3: She's not just being paid for her amazing voice. 627 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 2: And it was a big story, and they had the 628 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 2: pressures of social media being like pay this girl. I 629 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 2: don't know if they were gonna cheat that on her, 630 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 2: but you and I, but it was cool to see 631 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 2: you and I are way apart on this. I think 632 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 2: that's what I say. I think two hundred and fifty 633 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 2: thousand dollars. We're talking about a multi billion dollar company. 634 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 2: I say twenty five thousand dollars. I think maybe fifty 635 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 2: maybe fifty. By saying we own that, we own your jingle. 636 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 2: Do you think to some random TikTok girl, why what 637 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 2: would make you think they'd randomly be like, here's a 638 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 2: million dollars for the new jingle moving forward that they 639 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 2: could potentially use for the Super Bowl. 640 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: I think is a big deal. It's ridiculous, but hey, maybe. 641 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 3: Gat somebody almost paid one hundred thousand dollars for a cheeto. Yeah, 642 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 3: I'm King of leg the Balls and Golden Show. Yeah yeah, 643 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 3: a cheeto sold for one hundred thousand dollars. And so 644 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 3: that was observationumber one. We said, there's two tests of 645 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 3: whether or not you're in the social media algorithm. 646 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 2: Annoyingly, by the way, to really put this in perspective, 647 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 2: my mom knew of this story. So if my seventy 648 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 2: something year old mom knew of this story and you don't, man, 649 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 2: you're out of a loop.
