Speaker 1: bring some hankies, tissues. Mclovin is trying to tug on
Speaker 1: my heartstrings here. He's playing scenes from movies that will
Speaker 1: make you cry, including Field of Dreams where Kevin Costner
Speaker 1: and his dad out on the field. Do you want
Speaker 1: to have a catch? McLevin thought that maybe at the
Speaker 1: end of the show, he'll say that to me, since
Speaker 1: he knows my dad's dad. That all cry, but it's
Speaker 1: not going to work today. Is there any movie that
Speaker 1: gets you Ititanic? All of them do, That's true. I
Speaker 1: like sitcoms. I cry during that Chevy commercial where the
Speaker 1: daughter fixes up the car for the dad, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: pretty good right there. Yes, there's a commercial where a
Speaker 1: dad is shooting hoops with his daughter, his young daughter,
Speaker 1: and the daughter ages and eventually she goes off to college. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that one gets me too. They all do. But this
Speaker 1: isn't because there's no reason to cry. I should be
Speaker 1: happy for you right now. You know you could be
Speaker 1: sad too. No, I'm happy for you, but I will
Speaker 1: give you the rest of this hour if you want
Speaker 1: to reconsider, but after that then it's done. No takebacks.
Speaker 1: What about the two minute Peacock Live look at at
Speaker 1: the end. No, this is it. You got you got
Speaker 1: about forty five fifty minutes and then that's it. But
Speaker 1: if you're you know, content with this bad I mean,
Speaker 1: this decision that you're making to leave us and go
Speaker 1: work for somebody else, then I'm going to be happy
Speaker 1: for you. Okay, all right, it's forty five, all right,
Speaker 1: I'll think about it. Sunday night, Taylor Heineke and the

Speaker 1: Ryan and Honolulu is the most valuable Most Valuable Caller
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. By the way, the most valuable Danette.

Speaker 1: on the hour. I'm disappointingly excited. You can be really
Speaker 1: good and really bad. Disappointingly excited. Yes, that's what that means.
Speaker 1: A very consistent Okay, most valuable back room guy. Oh,
Speaker 1: this is where it's very excited. Now, let me just
Speaker 1: run down some of the guys and what they do,
Speaker 1: and they do a wonderful job. Like we have Rob
Speaker 1: who is a Knicks and a Jets fan and he
Speaker 1: should get it just because of that, and he's very optimistic.
Speaker 1: He didn't say anything during the entire day, but if
Speaker 1: you bring up the Knicks backcourt and he'll spend twenty
Speaker 1: minutes with you. Uh. Weeks has been an unbelievable cameraman,
Speaker 1: but he does so many other great things and he's
Speaker 1: a handyman. The big german. Big german makes a lot
Speaker 1: of this possible every single day. Eric Dylan. I don't
Speaker 1: know what Dylan does, but he is entertaining. I walked
Speaker 1: in last week. I walked in Friday afternoon after the show,
Speaker 1: like three thirty four o'clock in the afternoon. Now I
Speaker 1: can hear guys in the back, you know, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm going through the door. I can hear people. I'm
Speaker 1: on the outside coming in. They're playing basketball. I walk
Speaker 1: in first person. I see Dylan has his shirt off. Oh,
Speaker 1: Dylan should not have his shirt off. You know it
Speaker 1: was It was not because yes, you know what I
Speaker 1: love about Dylan is that he'll come in one day
Speaker 1: it's just sort of like out of nowhere and we're like, hey,
Speaker 1: check this out, and it's like a tattoo of a
Speaker 1: flamingo on it, and it's just like, yeah, that's it,
Speaker 1: Like there's no yes, check this out. Ray is an
Speaker 1: intern we just got. He's on a rookie contract. You know,
Speaker 1: you're not quite sure it gives you that surfer vibe,
Speaker 1: but you know he's stepping up, stepping into some of
Speaker 1: mclevin's responsibilities there. Mario. Everybody knows that Mario can't be
Speaker 1: valuable at anything so you can't have him his most
Speaker 1: valuable back room guy. Wow eat day to day. But
Speaker 1: but we do love Mario Marvin. Marvin puts up with
Speaker 1: an awful lot. He's one of the funniest guys in here.
Speaker 1: He's got a bad jump shot. Uh, but you know
Speaker 1: what he fits right in. We have so much fun
Speaker 1: with him. Every single day. Tyler Tyler the moderator, moderates
Speaker 1: chat Row. He does you know, meet Fridays. He watches
Speaker 1: my dog Winnie every single day, not necessarily that he
Speaker 1: loves watching the dog. Got uh. I got Tyler pajamas
Speaker 1: today with Winnie's face all over his pajamas. So here
Speaker 1: is the most Valuable back room Guy twenty twenty one.
Speaker 1: Do you guys want to guess who it is? Before
Speaker 1: I turn it round? I got a piece of tape
Speaker 1: for the name plate, so it's not really professional. This
Speaker 1: snuck up on me, Paul. I think the way you
Speaker 1: downplayed Mario, you're doing a curveball here possible, So you're
Speaker 1: going area, Yeah, No, I don't think he should be.
Speaker 1: I think, okay, all right, uh Todd, I was gonna
Speaker 1: go Tyler Tyler. Okay. He does a lot of different
Speaker 1: things and always does he do much for the show itself.
Speaker 1: I think the vibe is also a very important thing,
Speaker 1: and the cooking every single week, and it's a lot
Speaker 1: of not going on. Okay, mclovin, Who do you think
Speaker 1: is the most valuable back room guy? I think you're
Speaker 1: going against the grain with Dylan. Dylan, really Dylan I
Speaker 1: want to hang out with. I will say that I
Speaker 1: don't know what's gonna happen. You would go to Vegas seton?
Speaker 1: Who do you think? I feel like we're I feel
Speaker 1: like Weeks is being under represented here. Wow, great cameraman.
Speaker 1: But I think all the people that we're talking about
Speaker 1: right now, there's sort of one elder statesman, the father
Speaker 1: figure of that back room. So I'm gonna go with
Speaker 1: Eric Jones, Eric the big German, the big Yerman. Um,
Speaker 1: what's what's the sun? What's going on? There's another radio show.

Speaker 1: do it. Here comes Tyler. Tyler is coming in right now.
Speaker 1: He's got his pajamas on. If you're watching on tacon, Yeah,

Speaker 1: He made chili and we got hamburgers, and he took
Speaker 1: the dog for a walk. Yes he did, Tyler. Congratulations Tyler.
Speaker 1: Those pajamas look great. If that trophy's going to fit
Speaker 1: in his apartment or his orange Camaro. I still love
Speaker 1: that story that he bought basically the same car as
Speaker 1: the big German and like a month later, you know
Speaker 1: that movie Single White Female, That that's that's Tyler. Who
Speaker 1: who gets a Camaro in the winter except for Tyler

Speaker 1: not bad. That's all right, come on in. We'll take you. Yes,
Speaker 1: time to get out of prison a little earlier for behavior.
Speaker 1: That's the other group. Yeah, yeah, I watched in prison,
Speaker 1: you know all the time. I love a captive audience. Uh.
Speaker 1: Michael Boublet is going to join us. Todd is very
Speaker 1: excited about this. I am, and I know you are too.
Speaker 1: Just try to give me a hard time a little bit,
Speaker 1: but I could, I could wink at that. I just
Speaker 1: want to make Michael Boublet great. That made him great,
Speaker 1: and you'll make him even that much greater because that's
Speaker 1: what you do. So now you put even more precious
Speaker 1: pressure on you because you've never had to handle a
Speaker 1: prectious situation before you the air, Did I do that again? Yes?
Speaker 1: But you you do everything in one breath. I have
Speaker 1: to do some kind of breathing exercise or something. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because you always stale off. But I did go to
Speaker 1: my general practitioner and he didn't see I need to
Speaker 1: go to see the ear nose and throat doc. Yes,
Speaker 1: slowing down. Yes. I wonder if a guy like Michael
Speaker 1: Boubley enjoys going to holiday parties, Well, I'm gonna ask
Speaker 1: him this, but yeah, yeah, I gotta ask him. You
Speaker 1: get asked, like to break down the Twins bullpen. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But if he goes to a holiday point, he walks in,
Speaker 1: there's a piano, It's like, oh yeah, because I'll bet
Speaker 1: for him. Like everybody else, it's a it's a busy
Speaker 1: time of year, but you're kind of winding down to
Speaker 1: the end of the year, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: You know you're gonna get some time off. You know
Speaker 1: you're gonna I bet for him. It's the exact opposite.
Speaker 1: This is probably one of the busiest times a year
Speaker 1: for him. Yeah, I don't know if he wants to
Speaker 1: go to a Christmas party. If he walks over, then
Speaker 1: somebody's got the piano or they go, hey, Michael Boublat
Speaker 1: is coming. Are you gonna have him sing? Yeah? And
Speaker 1: then you and then you say it man, like if
Speaker 1: Kevin Bacon goes to a wedding, Because Kevin Bacon has
Speaker 1: told us, you know, he was the star of Footloose,
Speaker 1: that when he goes to a wedding, he's got a
Speaker 1: dance like he did in Footloose. I'm gonna guess, Michael
Speaker 1: Boublet when he goes bill Christmas party, somebody's gonna be
Speaker 1: playing the piano, going Michael playing one of his songs.
Speaker 1: Then he's got a sing Todd's gonna sing from Michael Boublay.
Speaker 1: We'll take a break and the final hour we'll get
Speaker 1: some more phone calls just connected on the zoom. I
Speaker 1: guess come on, and Michael wants to talk fantasy football.
Speaker 1: We'll take a break back after this from The Dan
Speaker 1: Patrick Show. Be sure to catch the live edition of
Speaker 1: The Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six
Speaker 1: am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. Hey,
Speaker 1: I'm Doug Gottlie. The podcast is called All Ball. We
Speaker 1: usually talk all basketball all the time, but it's more
Speaker 1: about the stories about what made these people love their
Speaker 1: sport and all the interesting interactions along the way. We
Speaker 1: talked to coaches, we talked to players, we tell you stories,
Speaker 1: you download it, you listen to it. I think you'll
Speaker 1: like it. Listen to All Ball with Doug Gottlieb on
Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or ever you get your podcast.
Speaker 1: Paulie said, we got a celebrity email. Now are they
Speaker 1: questioning something? No, No, they're a fan of the show
Speaker 1: and they're gonna miss Andrew. But it's a celebrity. I
Speaker 1: don't think you'd expect. That's all I can say. You
Speaker 1: guys never call him mclove and mcloven. You always call
Speaker 1: him by his first name. Why is that? Is it
Speaker 1: just because I said he looks like mclovin or a
Speaker 1: relative of McLevin from Superband. I don't know. I didn't
Speaker 1: even notice. Yeah, you guys always call him me Andy. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Behind the scenes people call me Andy. The back room
Speaker 1: guys call me mclovin. Okay, But you want to be
Speaker 1: called Pearl. Yeah, I'm trying to. Yeah, well try to
Speaker 1: make pearl of things too late, because this is your
Speaker 1: last show. You got about a half hour to make
Speaker 1: Parla thing. He's Michael Boubleat, singer, songwriter, record producer. A
Speaker 1: tenth anniversary deluxe edition of Michael Boublat's classic album Christmas
Speaker 1: is available now. Great to have you back on the program, Michael.
Speaker 1: I'm curious what it's like when you go, you and
Speaker 1: your wife go to a Christmas party and somebody's got
Speaker 1: a piano there. What happens? It's it's just it's forget
Speaker 1: about the Christmas party. What about the shopping mall for
Speaker 1: the elevator? Oh the roll home? When wait, when you
Speaker 1: hear your music, well, yeah, that's a scary place. You
Speaker 1: don't want to hear the elevator, that's for sure. But definitely,
Speaker 1: I mean everybody, I just went and bought stuff for
Speaker 1: my wife for Christmas, you know, of course, the last
Speaker 1: minute shop or just panicking, you know what do I get?
Speaker 1: And of course you don't. People see me and say, like,
Speaker 1: can you sing that one? Like jingle bell with my personality?
Speaker 1: Though you know I'm in the middle of that bathroom
Speaker 1: beyond going jingle bells, jingle jingle all the way. Kevin
Speaker 1: Bacon said that he hates going to a reception, a
Speaker 1: wedding reception, because everybody thinks he's gonna dance like he
Speaker 1: did in Footloose, Like come on, hey, come on, Kevin,
Speaker 1: dance like you did in foot Loose there. Yeah. If
Speaker 1: I could dance like Kevin, I probably would. I probably
Speaker 1: would be dancing. Yeah. But if he could sing like you,
Speaker 1: then he would be singing. Yeah probably. Yeah. Where's the
Speaker 1: strangest place though? You've been asked, like, you know, to
Speaker 1: sing a song? You know? Weirdly? I think it was
Speaker 1: my Grammar's funeral and I was really emotional. I was devastating,
Speaker 1: you know. I was just a big day for all
Speaker 1: of us. And this sweet woman that we had hired
Speaker 1: in catering, this nice Italian lady, came up to me
Speaker 1: as I exited the bathroom, you know, and she said,
Speaker 1: you sing a song? Yeah, you're doing it? Sing home
Speaker 1: And you know, again, in my personality, I'd say, like,
Speaker 1: I don't know what this is. What is the What
Speaker 1: is the one song that somebody else sings that you
Speaker 1: wish was yours? Oh God, it's a great question, man.
Speaker 1: There's so many, I think, I mean, I think God
Speaker 1: only knows. Uh. The is one of the I mean,
Speaker 1: it's one of those beautiful songs ever written. So the
Speaker 1: beach Boy, I wish it was mine. I wish half
Speaker 1: the edge here and songs that he wrote were mine
Speaker 1: sometimes like anasize about just you know, going back in
Speaker 1: time and just stealing them. You know, But do you
Speaker 1: do you do covers? You have? I mean you're a
Speaker 1: very humble guy, like you know, a lot of artists
Speaker 1: don't want to do covers of somebody else, but you
Speaker 1: have no problem with no. I do you know, it's weird.
Speaker 1: I live in a very weird you know what, And
Speaker 1: it's weird. I lived in a very strange place as
Speaker 1: an artist because I I am. I cover songs. I
Speaker 1: mean I do what say Sinatra did or Presley, you know.
Speaker 1: I take these songs and I reinterpret them the Great
Speaker 1: American Songbook. But my biggest successes have been songs that
Speaker 1: I've written. I've been the pop songs, which is very
Speaker 1: weird for people to try to put me in a
Speaker 1: box because what am I? Because those guys Dean or
Speaker 1: there Frank or Tony Bennett, they didn't write songs, they
Speaker 1: didn't have pop songs on the radio, So why do
Speaker 1: you you know what I mean? It's very strange to
Speaker 1: have to explain, especially if people don't know, they don't
Speaker 1: understand the same guy who wrote haven't met you yet?
Speaker 1: Or everything, or home is the same guy who's doing
Speaker 1: feeling good? Or come Fly with Me? Who's tougher to cover? Though,
Speaker 1: if you look at those guys that you met, like
Speaker 1: is Sinatra tough to cover? It's never the artist. It's
Speaker 1: more about the song and the history of the song
Speaker 1: and who's had a part in the history of the song.
Speaker 1: You know. That's it's funny. I find it. I don't
Speaker 1: find it easy to write songs. It's challenging to write
Speaker 1: a good so obviously everybody could do it if they could.
Speaker 1: But when I write a song, it's original and no
Speaker 1: one can compare it to anything. When I cover Come
Speaker 1: Fly with Me, you're now dealing with the song that's
Speaker 1: been tackled by Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, you know, chronic,
Speaker 1: there's there's all these, all of these so it's you know,
Speaker 1: it's weird. I think that's what I'm best at. I think,
Speaker 1: if anything, forget about singing or that part of reinterpreting
Speaker 1: it as a as a vocalist. I think what I'm
Speaker 1: best at is conceptualizing and coming up with ideas to
Speaker 1: make a song fresh and sort of almost very cinematic
Speaker 1: ideas within the arrangement like say something like Primer River.
Speaker 1: I don't have if you've ever heard my version of
Speaker 1: Pymie River, but Primer River is a great song. But
Speaker 1: it took I was, you know, I think I was
Speaker 1: in a having a bath or something, and I had
Speaker 1: come up with this line um bum bumpum fum bum
Speaker 1: sum sumumuumuumuumum fumumum um um singing and this big dramatic
Speaker 1: build and when I took it to the producer, I
Speaker 1: sang it to him. He right away he understood the
Speaker 1: constant and like I said, it was very cinematic. It
Speaker 1: was almost like a James Bond esque build and you
Speaker 1: could feel the drum and I knew for my show
Speaker 1: would be a great way to open the show. And
Speaker 1: so that is the challenge, is taking something that's been
Speaker 1: done so many times and making it sound brand new.
Speaker 1: And you know you've done it when you take a
Speaker 1: song and it's a standard that's been there for sixty
Speaker 1: years or eighty years and people say, I love you know,
Speaker 1: I love that you wrote this song or whatever they
Speaker 1: that you know, they'll tell me they'll say like I
Speaker 1: loved so I think like feeling good. You know, they'll
Speaker 1: say like, wow, I love the way you know you
Speaker 1: wrote feeling good. It's amazing, and of course I'll say
Speaker 1: thank you, but as opposed to I didn't write that.
Speaker 1: Do you have to ask for permission to cover of song? No,
Speaker 1: you don't. You don't have to ask. And what's weird
Speaker 1: or is like so it's happened to me? So years
Speaker 1: ago I wrote a song called Home and it was
Speaker 1: good for me. It went number one on this format
Speaker 1: of radio and eighty or whatever. And then Blake Shelton,
Speaker 1: the country singer, he covered it and he had a
Speaker 1: number one that was bigger than my number one, and
Speaker 1: he had his number one was in country radio. Across
Speaker 1: the pond, a band called Westlife had a number one
Speaker 1: with it. They called the record Home, And so people
Speaker 1: kept coming up to me and saying, I love that
Speaker 1: cover oftt Home or I love that place, and the
Speaker 1: same thing was happening. I was like, no, I wrote that,
Speaker 1: that's mine. But what do you get paid off for that?
Speaker 1: A ton? Oh? Good? Good? Keep listening to Blake Shelton
Speaker 1: told them what are those checks like though? When they
Speaker 1: come in that is there a reference to where the
Speaker 1: money's coming from? Yes, there definitely is there, it's all
Speaker 1: broken out. It's weird now because of the way that
Speaker 1: streaming is. I mean, isn't your Is your world changed
Speaker 1: with streaming? How much is your world change? Communerated podcast
Speaker 1: the digital Like, we had eleven point nine million downloads
Speaker 1: last month. Wow, that's a lot. That's a lot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And do you know and do you know what you're
Speaker 1: you're cut of that? This is a terrible conversation to have.
Speaker 1: But do you know what the cut is? Like? I
Speaker 1: have no idea. I think I know my manager deal.
Speaker 1: He's a great guys. Name is Bruce aund I know,
Speaker 1: he's very any generous I get, I get twenty percent,
Speaker 1: he gets eighty percent. Uh, I think that's a good deal.
Speaker 1: I've been told. He told me it's a very good deal.
Speaker 1: You know what you then you know what you like?
Speaker 1: Do you know what you get out of it? It's
Speaker 1: so the pie is cut up in so many slices
Speaker 1: that that you you know where things go and what
Speaker 1: they go for. And I bought my own man cave
Speaker 1: and then I have to rent out the equipment, so
Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm I'm still paying people for things
Speaker 1: that they're not involved with the show. Anymore, if that
Speaker 1: makes sense. Okay, well, I hope and I know mcloven's leaving.
Speaker 1: I hope you get to still pay him, um even
Speaker 1: when he's gone. Can you I know this is you know,
Speaker 1: I'm asking you to do something for me. You know,
Speaker 1: you're in the elevator, you're at a funeral. You got
Speaker 1: something to sing to mclovin that like, you know, this
Speaker 1: is the we got twenty more minutes. You got you
Speaker 1: got something that we can just kind of give him
Speaker 1: because we didn't get him anything good today. I mean,
Speaker 1: we're not that sorry he's going, but we'd like, we'd
Speaker 1: like to convey that if we could. You got something
Speaker 1: lightly emotional that you could sing to mclovin. Okay, let
Speaker 1: me just try, like, okay, hold on, let me get
Speaker 1: what about this Nile? Okay, wait, hold on, Michael, Now
Speaker 1: I gotta give the official introduction here the tenth anniversary
Speaker 1: Deluxe Edition. And Michael's not telling me to say this.
Speaker 1: I'm doing this. His classic album Christmas available now, a
Speaker 1: new studio album coming out next spring by Invitation. He
Speaker 1: also has a fragrance for women on set. What I
Speaker 1: don't know anymore, it's not even me good the manager.
Speaker 1: It smells like the manager. Do you get twenty percent
Speaker 1: of that as well? Wait, yes, of course I do. Okay,
Speaker 1: here we go. Michael Bublet sings to mclovin. Mc lovin,
Speaker 1: fa fa the memory. You weren't good, but you were okay.
Speaker 1: We thought you were fine. Maybe you were adequate. I
Speaker 1: think it is time to say thanks far the memories,
Speaker 1: Thank you. I was trying to think of what rhymes
Speaker 1: are adequate. By the way, I didn't prep Michael to
Speaker 1: do that. He but but he does know your limitations. Mclovin,
Speaker 1: Was that like Bette Midler singing to Johnny Carson? Was
Speaker 1: that the same thing? Kind? I kind of was that accepted.
Speaker 1: I don't think Bett was as hungover as I am
Speaker 1: right now. Have you ever played a show drunk? Never?
Speaker 1: That's weird. People think often there's a big thing when
Speaker 1: I started because I was, I was so I was
Speaker 1: so loose, you know, I was. Here's the thing I
Speaker 1: did this. I started when I was sixteen and my
Speaker 1: Grandpi's to sneaky into nightclubs, and he was a plumber,
Speaker 1: and so the only way that we knew how to
Speaker 1: get me out there was he would trade. So he'd
Speaker 1: get musicians or a club guy, and he'd say to
Speaker 1: the club guy, let my grandson into thing, and they'd say, no,
Speaker 1: like your grant your kid, he's six, sixteen years old.
Speaker 1: They were drinking ages nineteen. He'd trade Listen, I'll go
Speaker 1: and I'll fix the toilet and I'll put in a
Speaker 1: hall water heater in the kids, you're here, and he
Speaker 1: would go in and trade contra and they'd let me
Speaker 1: up on stage. So I did this from I was like,
Speaker 1: it's been a long you're even weirder. I think this
Speaker 1: is true. But I was sixteen in Vancouver, playing on
Speaker 1: like U Street, on these little clubs and bars and
Speaker 1: restaurants and stuff, and across the street was a kid
Speaker 1: even younger than me that was doing stand up at
Speaker 1: like fourteen and fifteen, and that was Seth Rogan, and
Speaker 1: I used to hear about him. I used to hear
Speaker 1: about like, oh, you know, there's this kid, there's this
Speaker 1: young kid like you, and he's doing this. You know,
Speaker 1: he's in the clubs, the adult clubs and stuff. Anyway,
Speaker 1: So by the time I got to doing this at
Speaker 1: twenty six and finally got signed, it had been ten
Speaker 1: years of me working. So I was very loose up there,
Speaker 1: very you know, confident, and it was very easy but
Speaker 1: fun for me. But people say, oh, he's wasted, that
Speaker 1: guy's wasted, But but I'm Steve Martin. Always gave you
Speaker 1: the impression that he was wasted, but what he wasn't.
Speaker 1: But I think that's the impression I gave. But the
Speaker 1: truth is I'm such a control freak that I would
Speaker 1: never ever do anything that could I would ever lose
Speaker 1: that kind of control. I like, I think that it's funny.
Speaker 1: I just did this Christmas special and Lauren Michaels was
Speaker 1: the producer. We were talking about a lot of the
Speaker 1: artists because I did the thing with Jimmy Found. We
Speaker 1: were talking about it and you know a lot of
Speaker 1: those guys, and we were actually talking about how loose
Speaker 1: they all seem and how great they arn't improvisation, but
Speaker 1: they're most of the ninety five percent of them are
Speaker 1: so structured and they're so uh you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: You're that it all seems like it's just off the
Speaker 1: cuffee easy, But that's because that's that's what I was
Speaker 1: going to swear, that they have prepared so well, like
Speaker 1: Jimmy Found, it's funny, you know, sweet and funny and
Speaker 1: you know real silly and goofy and stuff when you're
Speaker 1: a man. Backstage, when we were working out this this
Speaker 1: gag that we were doing, it wasn't it was real serious,
Speaker 1: real structured. And so I've never been drunk, never been high,
Speaker 1: um but that. But when we switched over to to
Speaker 1: my normal life, I've never been sober. It's off stage
Speaker 1: where the peb done. Well done. H your football your
Speaker 1: fantasy football team in shambles? Yep, yeah yeah, Tom Brady
Speaker 1: and Alma were my I'd look at like that. I actually,
Speaker 1: this isn't a joke. I just put my head down.
Speaker 1: He's shames. Um, you feel pretty good. Tom Brady and
Speaker 1: I had Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady and I put
Speaker 1: him Tom and I really like Brady and obviously is
Speaker 1: a great player. That just four points and Kamara just
Speaker 1: was invisible. Are you a Seahawks fan? I am a
Speaker 1: Seahawks fan. Oh? Sorry about that? Sorry about that? Michael?
Speaker 1: Did you really getting it? Getting much worse? More more
Speaker 1: drinking before I let you go? Yeah? I play judge
Speaker 1: here and I want you to be honest. Okay, this
Speaker 1: is American idol. I want you to can this person sing? Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: here we go in the matter, we can build a
Speaker 1: snow man. Will pretend that he is Parson Brown. He'll
Speaker 1: say I am married. We'll say no, man, but you
Speaker 1: can do the job when you're in town. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: actually yeah. Would you send him onto Hollywood? If you're
Speaker 1: Simon Cow I would go. You know the first thing
Speaker 1: I would do, I'd say, Hey, Randy Newman, Hey, we're
Speaker 1: gonna do a new Disney track. You don't even have
Speaker 1: to sing it. We have a guy who can sound
Speaker 1: like you. Really, I think so he's kind of got
Speaker 1: that thing. Who was that? That's Fritzie. That's really good.
Speaker 1: That was really nice. You've got that kind of that
Speaker 1: Randy Newman, that cool, that kind of character to his voice.
Speaker 1: Do you know Randy Newman? Tod now I do? Wait,
Speaker 1: we'll come on. He's done all these great soundtracks. Is

Speaker 1: the big German and Marvin during the commercial break. They're like,
Speaker 1: what do you have behind you? And he goes, that's
Speaker 1: a hockey rink. He's got one in his house. Let's
Speaker 1: go around the room. What we learned about mclovin is
Speaker 1: that what we're doing, Paul, Yeah, all right, I'll go first. Okay,
Speaker 1: I've never met anyone who, uh is gets more upset
Speaker 1: when they're hungry than Andrew mclovin. Pearl. That is true.
Speaker 1: When he does not get food, all bets are off.
Speaker 1: He's also a very good cook at making chili okay.
Speaker 1: He is a natural on air and that's what the
Speaker 1: great thing when he joined our staff. He needed no
Speaker 1: introduction to being an on air guy. He was good
Speaker 1: with sports and good with comedy and knows when to
Speaker 1: get in and when to get out. He's been a
Speaker 1: great friend, all the best. Thank Yeah, it's gonna make
Speaker 1: the other two dad at job a lot harder. I
Speaker 1: took out the greeting card, Seaton. Can you go to Todd, Todd,
Speaker 1: what did you learn about Nick Lovin going with the
Speaker 1: food one to play off of a Paulie. Do not
Speaker 1: stare or look in the direction at all or ask
Speaker 1: what Andrew is eating at any given moment when he's
Speaker 1: taking out his peet of bread and his chicken sad
Speaker 1: or his tuni down, he's focused and leave him alone.
Speaker 1: But I do want to say once again, great guy,
Speaker 1: always in great spirits, willing to do anything and everything
Speaker 1: for the show. And it's gonna be very, very very
Speaker 1: weird not having him sitting there come Monday, January third,
Speaker 1: and he will be greatly missed, and he's gonna do
Speaker 1: great and everything he doesn't let go. I ramble, I
Speaker 1: do that, I know, but I love the guy, and
Speaker 1: he's gonna do great things and I'm gonna miss him
Speaker 1: a lot, thank you. See conn, You know, I'm sitting
Speaker 1: here and I don't know that it feels real yet. No,
Speaker 1: it doesn't. It feels like, Okay, we're just going to
Speaker 1: Christmas break, so I think that, you know, January third
Speaker 1: will be much more interesting. M Yeah, check in with
Speaker 1: me on January third, because then I'll be like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: mclovin's gone. What should I say nice about him? Yeah,
Speaker 1: mclo I have the same feeling. I'm like, this doesn't
Speaker 1: feel because you know, we do so many bits on
Speaker 1: the show too. It kind of feels like like I'll
Speaker 1: just see you later. Yeah. Yeah, you make content out
Speaker 1: of everything, so sometimes it's hard to turn that mode off. Yes,
Speaker 1: this could be a great bit if it was a bit,
Speaker 1: and that we're acting like we're saying goodbye to mclovin,
Speaker 1: but he's going to be here on January third. But
Speaker 1: that's not the case. Yes see, I will say that
Speaker 1: it's kind of nice that Andrew is leaving in a
Speaker 1: way because then we could just be friends instead of
Speaker 1: like co workers. You know, co workers gets a little
Speaker 1: more tricky, whereas just being friends is like, all right, cool,
Speaker 1: let's just go hang out or something, or let's talk
Speaker 1: about you know, just bs on things. And I'm in
Speaker 1: a weird way, I'm really looking forward to that part
Speaker 1: of our relationship. Okay, happening. Okay. I have noticed that
Speaker 1: you guys are friends with everybody used to work with,
Speaker 1: like a lot of at tuberowl time, a lot of
Speaker 1: former espn ors and stuff. Everybody, including you, Dan, are
Speaker 1: really tight with a lot of people. Not all people. Well, no,
Speaker 1: because if you work on this show, then you become
Speaker 1: part of the show that made it successful. And I
Speaker 1: never lose sight of that. Even guys who were cameraman
Speaker 1: like we were still good friends with people who did
Speaker 1: this from you know, the the early days. You know,
Speaker 1: Nick and Casey, those guys that you know, but they
Speaker 1: we had so much fun. You can't help but have
Speaker 1: fun on this show with everything that goes on, Uh
Speaker 1: this Dane sports history, Paulie, do you want to do something?
Speaker 1: It's trivial, Babe, Ruth did something. Frank o' harris had
Speaker 1: the immaculate reception in This Day nineteen seventy two. How
Speaker 1: much is that NFT worth? I was wondering is that
Speaker 1: the greatest catch? Even though they didn't win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: I don't think that year. But Franco's catch, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Nobody cares where you know, Let's say goodbye to me, Clevin.
Speaker 1: I'm getting messages on social media for people that are like,
Speaker 1: why am I crying? It's the end of an era,
Speaker 1: end of a great run. Mclovin. I'll let you have
Speaker 1: the podium for the final words. Here brought to you
Speaker 1: by Mercedes spends the best or not? Oh on Earth?
Speaker 1: I have twenty seconds to sum up the last twelve years.
Speaker 1: Not even that well. It all started warning young man
Speaker 1: in suburban Philadelphia stole Charles Barkley's hat and wore Barbra
Speaker 1: Streisand's brawn his head. And now I'm on TV. Thank you, buddy.
Speaker 1: We wish you well.
