It 21 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: was not really a talent show, It was a karaoke 22 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: thing that we did in Vegas and this portion of 23 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: the Ben Mahler Show on Fox made possible in part 24 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,279 Speaker 1: by our friends at ti Iraq. For over forty years, 25 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: that's two generations, Tire Ract has been helping customers find 26 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: the right tires for how, what and where they drive, 27 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: ship fast and freeback by free road hazard protection, with 28 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tier rac dot 29 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: com the way tire buying show would be. So our 30 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: lead this hour is from baseball and we'll go to 31 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: Seattle with the story everyone's been yapping about. Here cal 32 00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: Raleigh doing it again. The Mariners star cal Raleigh homer 33 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: in his first two at bats against Jacob Lopez of 34 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: the Athletics. Not the Sacramento Athletics, not the Oakland Athletics, 35 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: not the Kansas City Athletics, not the Philadelphia Athletics. They're 36 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 1: just the Athletics. But that home run bonanzo by cal Raley. 37 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: He broke the MLB record for home runs by a 38 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: catcher in a single season minimum seventy five percent of 39 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: games played as a catcher. So I assume you heard 40 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: about that. If you've been listening, you know about it. 41 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 1: We've talked about it and maybe not. But Salvador Perez 42 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,839 Speaker 1: of the Royals had the previous record with forty eight 43 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: home runs. That was back in twenty twenty one. Man, 44 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: it was so long ago, like four or five years ago. 45 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 3: Wow. 46 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: Now Raleigh has forty home runs this season while playing 47 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: behind home play, So forty home runs is a catcher, 48 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: So he's still technically not one, but two home runs 49 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: away from that record. Just home runs by a catcher. 50 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: That was Hobby Lopez of the Atlanta Braves back in 51 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,959 Speaker 1: the day forty two the most ever. Take that, Mike 52 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: Piazza and all those other catchers the hit a lot 53 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: of home runs back in the day. All right, So 54 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: let us discuss the question based on the latest developments. 55 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: Has cal Rawley passed Aaron Judge by in the American 56 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 1: League MVP race. So I've got Google Maps, Airbnb, and 57 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: modern Art, and we will combine all of these things 58 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: together and we will ring the bell again and again 59 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: and again and again. So number one, I said, number one. Yeah, alright, 60 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 1: So they're in a dead heat at this point, right, 61 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: dead heat. If you look at the American League MVP 62 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: race down the stretch we go, here we are It's 63 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: late August, the baseball season heating up. Boy, it's toasty 64 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: hot most places, and we're setting up for a photo 65 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: finish like at the Kentucky Derby very in there. And 66 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: if you look at where we're at, cal Raley's got 67 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: this record, the record as opposed to the Royals catcher. 68 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: He's got that. He's gonna have the all time record. 69 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: He's gonna hit at least three more home runs this 70 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: year unless he gets hurt, so he's gonna have the 71 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: all time record. And we know that catching is more 72 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: difficult than playing outfield like Aaron Judges for the Yankees 73 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: or dhing, which he's been doing somewhat lately because of 74 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: some injury stuff. So the issue though, and this is 75 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: the problem, and I want that dope from Seattle to 76 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: call up hate Kyl. We do the show today. We're 77 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: worried about today's show. So today, as we talk today, 78 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: cal Raley is dead even and even has a slight edge, 79 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: a hair of an edge over Aaron Judge. The issue 80 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: is Google Maps. If you look at the geography, cal 81 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: Raley plays, as the old NFL coach Jimmy Johnson said 82 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: back in the day, he plays in southern Alaska. There's 83 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: no workaround to that. There is what about the Internet, 84 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 1: there's no workerund you have. You have to overcome the 85 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: geography and Aaron Judge, all things being equal, Aaron Judge 86 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 1: East Coast bias and all that stuff. And also even 87 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: in the age of social media, Aaron Judge playing in 88 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: New York and he's got that superhero costume, the pinstripes. 89 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 1: Good luck, right, the tie will go to Judge. If 90 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: it's even, the tie goes to Aaron Judge. So Raleigh 91 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: needs to be a full head and shoulders ahead of 92 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: Aaron Judge to take home the American League MVP Award 93 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: this year. And the Yankees have a one game lead 94 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: over the Mariners if you look at the overall standings 95 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 1: in a lost column, a one game lead for the 96 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: wild Ano. They're both wildcard teams, but the Mariners are 97 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: one game behind the Yankees in the head to head standings. 98 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: Judge is on pace. He's on pace. Didn't play well, 99 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: particularly on that Sunday night game I was watching. The 100 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: Yankees did actually beat the Red Sox, which I didn't 101 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: think they could do anymore, but they did. I was 102 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: watching that game a little bit the Yankees have a 103 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: one game lead. As I mentioned, Judge on pace head 104 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: ahead with the Mariners. Judge on pace for thirty two doubles, 105 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 1: fifty home runs and one hundred and fifteen RBIs now 106 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 1: cal Raley is tracking for twenty three doubles and he's 107 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 1: also on pace to hit sixty. I believe it's sixty 108 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: one home runs at this point and one hundred and 109 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: thirty one RBIs so so big time numbers. 110 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 2: There be sure to catch live editions of The Ben 111 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 2: Meller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific 112 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. 113 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 4: Hey, Steve Covino and I'm Rich David and together we're 114 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 4: Covino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. 115 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 5: You could catch us weekdays from five to seven pm 116 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 5: Eastern two to four Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and 117 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 5: of course the iHeartRadio App. 118 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: Why should you listen to Covino and Rich. 119 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 5: We talk about everything life, sports, relationships, what's going on 120 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:49,679 Speaker 5: in the world. 121 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 4: We have a lot of fun talking about the stories 122 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 4: behind the stories in the world of sports and pop culture, 123 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 4: stories that well other shows don't seem to have the 124 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 4: time to discuss. 125 00:06:58,279 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: And the fact that we've. 126 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 5: Been friends for the last twenty and still work together. 127 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 5: I mean that says something, right, So. 128 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: Check us out. 129 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 4: We like to get you involved, to take your phone calls, 130 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 4: chop it up as they say. 131 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 5: I'd say, the most interactive show on Fox Sports Radio, 132 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 5: maybe the most interactive show on planetar. 133 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 4: Be sure to check out Cavino and Rich live on 134 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 4: Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app from five to 135 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 4: seven pm Eastern two to four Pacific.

What normally happens is some 176 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 1: of the regulars there are such attention whoors that they will 177 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: attempt to call up with fake voices and try to 178 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: get past the goalkeeper. So you have to listen to 179 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: see if any of the regulars get on with an alias. 180 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: Always a fun degree of difficulty to Newby Night is 181 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: which regulars are so desperate for airtime that they will 182 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: use now angry Bill used to do this all the time. 183 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: But Bill has some health problems. He didn't call a 184 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: show much anymore. So, But who's going to step up? 185 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: That's the question. So it is a Newbie Night. I'll 186 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: give out the number in a little bit. I got 187 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: a rant here. It's called a malord monologue. At the 188 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: top of every hour, every hour on the hour. It's 189 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,679 Speaker 1: a malar monologue, boom, just like that. So I was 190 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: going to lead the show with a different story. However, 191 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: my brigadier generals in the Mala Militsia, I listen when 192 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: they speak. So I really want to tip the cap 193 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: to Justin and Cincinnati and Robbie the Mariner Fan. They 194 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: reached out to me. I was sleeping and I woke 195 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: up to a couple of frantic messages. Justin in Cincinnati 196 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: specifically requested that I lead off the show with this story. 197 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 1: Justin said, you know, he just loves love. I think 198 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: that's what he said. He just loves love, and he 199 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: plays a schmuck on social media, complete a hole all that, 200 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: but it's just an act. It's just performance art. That's 201 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: all he does. And they said, both Robbie the Mariner 202 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 1: Fan and Justin and Cincinnati. The way I interpreted their 203 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: messages was that I would be committing a sports talk 204 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: radio felony if I avoided the Komodo dragon in the room, 205 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: the story that everyone's been yapping about here, it's crossover story. 206 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: So boys, your wish is my command. Tabloyd Mallord has 207 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: arrived ta Yeah, I know, Well, we do broadcasting, not 208 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 1: narrow cash and play the hit small man. What of 209 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: our old bosses used to say? So Taylor Swift, I'm 210 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 1: told she's kind of a big deal. I'm told she's 211 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 1: kind of a big deal. Taylor Swift, who apparently does 212 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: some singing and gets paid for it. And Travis Kelcey, 213 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,079 Speaker 1: who used to be good at football, and then I 214 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: don't know what that was in the Super Bowl last year. Anyway, 215 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 1: they're now engaged. Oh my god, sweet baby Jesus, they're engaged. 216 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: They announced the news in a joint post on The 217 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: Graham very exciting. Kelsey went into a garden, a literal garden. 218 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 1: I don't know where the garden was, and he asked 219 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, the most famous woman in the world, I'm 220 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 1: told to marry him, and apparently she said yes. So 221 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: there you go. All right, So how does that work 222 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: in sports radio? How is that a sports stock radio 223 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: talking point? Well, you're about to find out. So let's 224 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: discuss the question. What are the chances that Travis Kelsey 225 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: pulled off a shock engagement? That this was a surprise, 226 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: this was unexpected, that this came out of nowhere. So 227 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: I've got on this one. I've got waffle house, humped 228 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: back whale, and Roman candle, and we will combine all 229 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: of these things together, and we are going to make 230 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: your Babushka's favorite gulash. Is what we're going to do 231 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: for your Babushka. We're going to do that, all right. 232 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: So a to answer the question, the chances that Travis 233 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: Kelsey pulled off a shock engagement, that Taylor Swift had 234 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: no idea that he was going to pop the question, 235 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 1: the chances are slimming none, And slim took the first 236 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: flight out of Dodge See you later. This was obviously 237 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 1: carefully curated for human consumption. For your consumption, I guess 238 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: from mine. I slept, I was, I woke up to it. 239 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, if had you had the photos. You had 240 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: the diamond ring, which I guess could could like use 241 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: as a reflector for mahomes on deep passes and all 242 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: that stuff. And they had a little cute post there, 243 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married. 244 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: I never had an English teacher like that. I never 245 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: had a gym teacher like that. I did not have 246 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 1: a gym teacher that looked like that. I had a 247 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: gym teacher that wore short shorts, had a whistle around 248 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 1: his neck and really short shorts. And then I had 249 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: a lot of English teachers that were very old, very 250 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: old and had been beaten by life. That's what I had. 251 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: That's what I had. But this was so cute, folksy, 252 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: quirky and all that stuff, all those words right there, 253 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: and it was blasted across every single corner of the 254 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: world wide web there within seconds, the interweb all over 255 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: the place. Now, does that sound organic? Maybe the back 256 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: of the room it sounds organic. Possibly the back of 257 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: the answer is sure. If organic means like tupperware, there's 258 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: a place somewhere. I think it's in South America where 259 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: they grow tupperware. No, and we've learned this actually happened 260 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: two weeks ago. There's a two week old story. It 261 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: didn't get out for two weeks. Now, nothing, I understand. 262 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: Nothing in celebrity culture is organic. It does not exist. Now, 263 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: organic is a marketing term, we should point that out, 264 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: But organic is you know what organic is? An organic 265 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: proposal is going to Now this guy we met Dante 266 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: in Vegas and his plan, he's going to do this. 267 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, this guy's going to become loaded, rich, 268 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 1: loaded guy with waffle house. He's going to open the 269 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: first waffle house in Vegas. So the organic way to 270 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: propose is to ten years from now, go to Dante's 271 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: waffle House in Vegas in the parking lot at three 272 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: in the morning while eating the sausage egg gritz bowl 273 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: and you've got the ring still in the You got 274 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: the ring and he came out of a plastic claw machine. 275 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: The engagement ring came out of a plastic claw machine 276 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 1: from inside. And then that's the engagement. Now, this, this 277 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: was all the Kelsey engagement was obviously chorey craft. It 278 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: was I would say, months in the making, knowing a 279 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: little bit about how that world works. And you had 280 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift's people. You've got Kelsey's got people. See, I 281 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: don't have people like when you're that fit, you got people. 282 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: I don't have people. You know, we don't. I don't 283 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: have that. But they got people. You had the jeweler involved, 284 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: So there's a jeweler. You know people. You know, there's 285 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: got to be a back. So everyone loves a story, right, 286 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: You go to restaurants, and the menus at the restaurants are. 287 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 6: Well, here's our story about huh. We became you know, 288 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 6: love bla blah blah. We learned how to make fighter 289 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 6: training Alfredo in Italy while drunk. You know, it's an 290 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 6: old family. Everyone's got to have a story, right, Everyone 291 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 6: loves a story. We learned from stories. It's very big deal. 292 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 6: So you gotta have a story. It's it's not just 293 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 6: an engagement ring. There's a story to it. 294 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: Right, It's got some special meaning that will come out. 295 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: It's all hands on deck, all hands on deck. And uh. 296 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: And of course it's not a love story so much, 297 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: even though Justin and Cincinnati told me it was a 298 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: love story and Robbie the Mariner fan. It's an event. 299 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: It's an event, and yet it's it's also in a 300 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: weird way. It is sporty, right, That's the part that 301 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 1: kind of fascinates me. This is somehow he's sports story, 302 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: but apparently it is. And page two, will there be 303 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 1: a prenup? Will there be a prenup between Taylor Swift 304 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: and Travis Kelsey? Okay, so it does a humpback whale 305 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: swim in the ocean? Does a humpback will Swift? Course? 306 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: But he just saw Tyreek Hill who got married for 307 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 1: was his seventeen months, and he gave the woman he 308 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 1: was with five hundred thousand dollars for seventeen months, plus 309 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: like twenty grand a month to spend, because we all 310 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 1: need twenty grand a month to spend, plus a five 311 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: million dollar house, plus lawyer fees, plus this plan. So 312 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: you cant dollars to donuts, dollars to absolutely right, come 313 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,360 Speaker 1: on now, of course you better believe there is going 314 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: to be a prenup here that Taylor Swift's legal team, 315 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: her lawyers, have already drafted a prenup up that I 316 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: believe runs longer than the United States Constitution. It's it's 317 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 1: bigger than the US Constitution. And Travis Kelce is rich. 318 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 1: It's not like Travis Kelsey doesn't have money. He's rich. However, 319 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift is wealthy. There is a difference between rich 320 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:17,479 Speaker 1: and wealthy, and that's the that's the point of de marcation, right, 321 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: that's the point of demarket. So does this engagement end 322 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: in marriage? Not all engagements end in marriage. History tells 323 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:30,919 Speaker 1: us that when it comes to celebrity engagements, it's a 324 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,880 Speaker 1: benny versus the penny situation. It's a coin flip, it's 325 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: a COI has Taylor Swift already written a song about this? 326 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: How about that? You think she's already got a song 327 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: in the tank? 328 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 6: Hell? 329 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely, it's either on her phones notes app, like 330 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 1: I put a lot of stuff on my notes app 331 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:53,119 Speaker 1: on my phone, Like I'll have a random thought. I 332 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: was driving in and I had there was something I 333 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 1: wanted to ran about on the on the podcast. I'm 334 00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: gonna save it for this weekend. But there was something 335 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: I say saw that really annoyed me. And I use 336 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: my weekend podcast this is therapy to complain about things 337 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: that annoyed me. So I saw this and I said, 338 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: I want to rant about that because that really annoyed me. 339 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: So I'll do that at some point this weekend. But 340 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 1: I used the notes mean so she's probably put it 341 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 1: on there, or other people wrote the song for her, 342 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: or maybe it's already been recorded. Who knows? Will they Elope? 343 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: Will they? Absolutely not? You think they're going to Elope. 344 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: They're not eloping. They're not going to the Elvis Chapel 345 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: in Vegas with our favorite taxi cab driver from Boston 346 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: who lives in Vegas. He's not gonna take him to 347 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: the Elvis chapel for a shotgun wedding that is not happening. 348 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: And I've been told by people that are very important, 349 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: and this is American Royalty. This is an American royal wedding. 350 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: We've never had an American royal wedding. They put those 351 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: other weddings from Europe on and they get big numbers, 352 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 1: big numbers, and so this thing will be It'll be televised, commercialized. 353 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: You'll have the Swifties all over it, right, they'll be there. 354 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: You've got the Chiefs Kingdom and Kelsey's crowd. They'll be 355 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: blending together in one giant ven diagram right there, adoring fans. 356 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: Oh my, wonderful. And of course I am not a 357 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: fan of either. I don't hate either or anything like that. 358 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 1: But I'll just be along for the ride here. Some 359 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: of you have sent me email telling me that Travis 360 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 1: Kelsey made a deal with the devil and he's a 361 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: lizard person. Now, so maybe that's the case. I don't 362 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: know if that's the case or not. But listen, I'll 363 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: consume this. I'm in the content business. I will consume it. 364 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 1: I will mock it. That's what I do. I get 365 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 1: paid to consume things. And to mock things. And I'll 366 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: either secretly love it or hate it, or maybe a 367 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: little bit of both. And that's fine. That's the business 368 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: I've chosen. That's what we do here. That's also what 369 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 1: you do as well. We all have strong opinions. It's 370 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: the culture, and you know it's sports, but it's not 371 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: sports except when it is sports. And now I got 372 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: to tell you personally, I have not this is something 373 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,360 Speaker 1: that's changed in my life time. I have not understood 374 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: the obsession of the tight end celebrity. I don't understand. 375 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: It's something that did not exist in my childhood. This 376 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: is a thing that has happened as I've grown and 377 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 1: become an adult. I guess I'm not smart enough to 378 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: figure it out. But back in my day, here's a 379 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 1: back in my day story. A tight end was a 380 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 1: glorified offensive lineman. That's what a tight end was. And 381 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: occasionally the tight end would catch a pass, but really 382 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: only if the quarterback got bored, they'd throw the tight 383 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: end a pass, and that's about it. That's about it. 384 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: Now they're dating pop stars, Now they're engaging in the 385 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 1: hosting podcasts. They're on television like Gronkowski and all that stuff, 386 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 1: and they're auditioning for roles in movies. These tight ends. 387 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: What a amazing dichotomy from what it had been the 388 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: tight end position. Travis Kelsey's out there, he's galloping around 389 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 1: like a golden retriever who found a glitter cannon. And 390 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: that's pretty much like now now the last word on 391 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: this on a newbie night, the last word, does Chiefs 392 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 1: tight end Travis Kelsey's engagement? Did Taylor Swift mean asta 393 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: la vista? The twenty twenty five NFL season is going 394 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: to be all she wrote? Is that? 395 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 3: It? 396 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: So? If you look at this from thirty thousand feet 397 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: up in the sky, Travis Kelsey is going the old 398 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: Aerosmith Piece Out farewell tour. He's doing the old peace 399 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,679 Speaker 1: Out farewell tour on this. Before he trades in the playbook, 400 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: he's going to give the playbook back and he's going 401 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: to get some horribly cheesy movie scripts. And you can 402 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 1: play another waiter in a future Adam Sandler movie. Knock 403 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: yourself out here. Now, the Chiefs will not say their 404 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: brass will not say retirement the R word. They won't 405 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: say retirement, but I promise you they're already preparing a statue, 406 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: whether it be at Arrowhead or whether it be at 407 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: another venue in the Greater Kansas City slash Kansas you 408 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: know across the state line there in the Greater Kansas 409 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: City area. Well, we have a lot of friends, you know, 410 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: the show has done very well there. I recommend when 411 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: they get the wedding, I believe the people that should 412 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 1: take care of the food. Everyone's worried about wedding food. 413 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: What better at the Travis Kelcey wedding to Taylor Swift 414 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: than the landing in Liberty, Missouri? Serving Ben Mallard chicken 415 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: fingers at the Kelsey Taylor Swift wedding. Perfect, They're right there. 416 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 1: It's a people think of Kansas City as a barbecue city, 417 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 1: but really it's a in many ways, it's more of 418 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: a chicken finger city. Would just be perfect, would just 419 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: be absolutely perfect. But you'll get a statue, get a 420 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: you know, the old tribute video and all this stuff. 421 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 1: Now this is not just ran them late night speculation 422 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: is not. It is the slow motion exit, the slow 423 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: motion and then you've got the Swifties soundtrack that's playing 424 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:16,360 Speaker 1: underneath this and Kelsey's body kind of like the Haunted 425 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 1: Mansion at Disney's creaking a little bit, a little bit. 426 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: His yards per catch numbers going down, down, down, down, down, down, 427 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:30,239 Speaker 1: down down down. That Super Bowl performance, my god, that 428 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,479 Speaker 1: was about as flat as a Taylor Swift final record. 429 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 1: That was wow. My god. Now, Kelsey, not only is 430 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: he aging in front of our eyes, he's also his 431 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: future is this he's auditioning. This is his future as 432 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 1: a distant relative of Nostradamis and friend of Nostra Denas. 433 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 1: He lives in Seattle. I saw him again. We had 434 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 1: a pow wow in Vegas with his wife, whose very 435 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:03,239 Speaker 1: nice woman, except she's a vegan anyway, so vegetarian being 436 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: in the same anyway, to me, it's the same thing. 437 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: So here's the future of Travis Kelcey. I've looked into 438 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: the future. His future is auditioning for the role of 439 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: former athlete Number three in the upcoming Netflix rom com 440 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 1: to be named later. That's what he's got in the future. 441 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: And he's got I know, he's got his little Meatthead podcast, 442 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: I know, the meathead megaphone. You guys love jock talk, 443 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 1: and there you go, got Travis Kelcey and his other 444 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,679 Speaker 1: meathead brother, Jason Kelcey. The two meatheads, two slobs of 445 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 1: meat right there, slabs of meat talking, and they can 446 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: riff a couple of retired dudes and have that little 447 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: ring light on. And that's the way to do it right. 448 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: Everyone loves audio content. Everyone's got a podcast these days. 449 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,239 Speaker 1: Why not Travis Kelcey, He'll be going out like a 450 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 1: Roman candle, Just like a Roman candle here, a loud, 451 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: flashy and slightly off target, just a little off target. 452 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: And then in retirement, Travis Kelcey can ride Taylor Swift's 453 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: be jeweled body suits right right, why not?
