God, 222 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: we're not walking into them. Maybe through them. Yeah. I 223 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: feel like I walked into him, took it right to 224 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: the head. I'm not a home Deep enthusiast because I'm 225 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 1: someone who likes to ask for help. I stopped, I 226 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,719 Speaker 1: stopped and ask for directions. I say, excuse me, sir, 227 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: where is the such and such? So I'm my d 228 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: I Y level. Aaron is like, I'm like a three. 229 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,359 Speaker 1: I'm not good. I'm not I'm not that kind of badass. 230 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 1: So when I walk in there to get the stupidest, 231 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 1: most pedestrian, most basic thing, like a Phillip's head screwdriver, 232 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 1: I can't find it by myself. And then I'm not 233 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: even looking for the item. I'm looking for someone to 234 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: help me find the item, and and when you do, 235 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: it's like, this is not my department. So what I 236 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: think of home people's general frustration, it's it's tough. You 237 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 1: can't find a single person in the Orange apin. When 238 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: you do, it's never their department, Like does no one 239 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: working tools?

We walk in, I get 249 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 1: the shakes as soon as we walk in. I will 250 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: say I disagree with you. I feel like the people 251 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: do know exactly where to go. We're like, Hi, we're 252 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 1: lights Aisle nine. Sure right, good for you. Walk to 253 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 1: Aisle nine. The guy Kyle, you would have died. We 254 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: walked up to him and Jared said, hey, I've got 255 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: these lights. Do you know where I find them? The 256 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,719 Speaker 1: guy looks at him and goes, do you speak Spanish? 257 00:11:55,960 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 1: Jeried goes nobody goes fuck ha, bloying them on great English, 258 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: and so we were like, I just was like, this 259 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 1: could go really really wrong. He knew English, he was 260 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: great at English. The light bulbs aren't really what we're 261 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: looking for. That's not the point of this story. It 262 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: was just like the place freaks me out. I don't 263 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 1: know where we're going. I don't know what we're going 264 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: to get.

I was like, I wonder 268 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: if Kyle has to deal with like what he's like 269 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: in a home depault. I don't know why, but I'm 270 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,839 Speaker 1: thinking about it from like the macro level. Is that 271 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: like you knew as badly as you didn't want to 272 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: go there. That light bulb thing's been hanging over your 273 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: head and the guest kid is getting closer, and if 274 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: if they're getting there Friday, you're like, by Wednesday, we 275 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: are going to have those light bulbs hunt and we're 276 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: gonna go and like that became your entire afternoon, was 277 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: going in purchasing thirty six dollars worth of light bulbs, 278 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: and it really becomes all encompassing. It's this massive mission 279 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 1: you have to go on and it's never fun. If 280 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: you were looking for me to be like, yeah, I 281 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 1: love the lumber section and the tools, and I you 282 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: have to drag me out of there. No, no, no, 283 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: that's not I'm not that kind of guy. It just 284 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: frightens me.

I can tell you 290 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: where you can get a quick burger king before you 291 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: get on flight, you know over there at gate D 292 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: three four.

Like I'm like a machine in 304 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: my evening plan. Like if I get to nine thirty one, 305 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: not nine thirty and I'm not in bed, like I 306 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: start to twitch, So like I am just a machine 307 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: like in that um other than that, not to be 308 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: in bed? What what time do you guys waiting?

It's a 315 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: dumb question and I've asked Stregor this before. What about 316 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: late games impossible? What you hope for is that, you know, 317 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: like the Steelers are up on the Jaguars thirty and 318 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: nothing at a half time, but it never happens. So 319 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: you have like one of these maniac games that you've 320 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 1: worked before where it's forty to forty two and like, personally, 321 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: like I know, people fake it or they cram in 322 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: the morning, Like I just can't do that because my 323 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: whole deal is authenticity and I'm just not good at 324 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: regurgitating facts. So it sucks. And you're up to eleven 325 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: forty five and you sleep five hours, and I mean, 326 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: what is me?

I understand Aaron, Like I I really 378 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,360 Speaker 1: mean this. I still come from a place of insecurity 379 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 1: and about content on the air. I always do. Like 380 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: when I started the job with the NFL, I didn't 381 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: play in the NFL, I didn't have any sources, Like 382 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,120 Speaker 1: I was this kind of wild card, and so I'm like, yeah, God, 383 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: what I say, A bet I'd be really good because 384 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: the other guy whatever, Nate Burlison said he looked great, 385 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: and it was the NFL player who cares if it's good. 386 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: It was just good on top of that. So I 387 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: still to this day, I'm like, if I just have 388 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: something average, like they're gonna fire me. Like I always 389 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: feel afraid that, like my content because of the species 390 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,719 Speaker 1: of person I am in the media, has to be 391 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: great otherwise when I bring into the table. Yeah, which 392 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: blows my mind because Chris and I were talking about 393 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: you the other day and and in handling a situation 394 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: like Deshaun Watson, I hope you've heard it the way 395 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: you went about it, the way you came from the heart, 396 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: the way you just anted on and you you just 397 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: said what you felt. We were both like, we're so 398 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: jealous of that because that would have been something we 399 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 1: would have been sweating bullets. You don't want to piss 400 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: anyone off. You don't want to, you know, you want 401 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: to make sure you cover all your bases. And you 402 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: just went and yeah, it blows my mind that you 403 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 1: are it doesn't. I get the preparation part.

That's a different question. 407 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: Why what what? Why? Is that a different question because 408 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: you know why because strange people blow your hair back. 409 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: Some people that wouldn't love that, alright, So like again, 410 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: I've never really worked on TV before, so it's someone 411 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 1: who like isn't even necessarily like novel. Like I remember 412 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: Jerry O'Connell came on the show. This guy was with 413 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: the TV a million years, and I'm like, I love 414 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: Jerry McGuire. That's cush, Like, what's thee? Yeah, what's that 415 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: crucial lash? Like I got two slash and he was 416 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 1: so nice about it. So like I was excited about that, um, 417 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 1: and then like you know, the people like the big 418 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: timers that you grew up watching, like Barry Sanders and 419 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: Jerry Rice, when you get used to that really fast 420 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: and it's like sports fans are. I was like, that's crazy. 421 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,719 Speaker 1: You got to meet Barry Sanders. I'm like, I know 422 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: it is, But all I can tell you is that, 423 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,159 Speaker 1: like you do get used to it pretty quickly, and 424 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 1: they're usually very polite and forgettable and the most pleasant way, 425 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: like nothing crazy, um. But other than that, Like I'm 426 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 1: trying to think of like crazy, I think who comes 427 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: to mind? There is the early ones always like sometimes 428 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 1: the rough ones, like I remember, of all people, you 429 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: thought Jerry O'Connell was random. The name is gonna cut 430 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: of my mouth next, I remember we had I think 431 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: I think they used to call them country Sweetheart.

Now, if we were to like 466 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: pull the staff or give them an anonymous poll like 467 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: who's the best impression means who's the worst? I would 468 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: get every single vote for the worst. I hate them. 469 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to share what I'm gonna say. I 470 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: wanted to be surprised in the air and I understand 471 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: and I appreciate the hard working people who we need 472 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 1: to match video and stuff. I'm like, fine, but I 473 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: my one word answers. I'm nothing like this. I am 474 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: such a miserable bastard on the production meetings anytime, especially Yeah, 475 00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: I thought them how you and them? So production meetings 476 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: for Dancing with the Stars were an all time I mean, 477 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 1: think about it, I'd have to be there. But I 478 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: also was a bitch in production meetings because I would 479 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: have a game on Sunday and then our show was 480 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: Monday morning, so I would either fly in either at 481 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: two am or you know usually that's when I was 482 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 1: home eleven PM or two am, and I'd get there 483 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 1: and it's you know, I am sucking this Starbucks back 484 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: where I'm just again breathing fire um, and I get 485 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 1: in there. But Tom Bergeron is so great, much like 486 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 1: Shregs is dirty sense of humor, self deprecating. I mean, 487 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: we would read our scripts, but that's the thing. We 488 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: had a script, you guys don't. We would read our scripts, 489 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: but add all the like sexual and nuendos and like 490 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: it's so and so hooking up, who's fighting? So we 491 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 1: would have such a blast doing it. Where they should 492 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: have been like an hour long, but there were an 493 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: hour and a half to two hours. So yeah, I 494 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: mean those production meetings were a time, real life production 495 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 1: meetings for games. I mean, we weren't having them with 496 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: Joe and Troy because it was such a well oiled machine. 497 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: Now with Kevin Burkhart and Greg Olsen, Yeah, we're going 498 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 1: to go back to having them, and you know, we'll 499 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 1: make our prinny about that. It'll be great. You know 500 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: what it's it'll be It'll be great, It'll be fine. 501 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 1: Um do I want to do a production meeting? Hell? No, 502 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: I want to go straight to the bar. But it'll 503 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 1: be great. It's fun to have new energy. We had 504 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 1: a big Vegas kind of party with the studio crew 505 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: and our new crew and coach Johnson Johnson. Jimmy Johnson 506 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: gave a whole speech about how change is good for 507 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 1: the team and uh, yeah, it'll be fun. What are 508 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: you looking forward to with this season? Um? What storylines here? 509 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: Listen that the new Fox broadcast theme is awesome. I'm 510 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: looking forward to that. And they're doing meetings now and 511 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: I know that they're really into it. No, I'm looking 512 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: forward to talking about on the field. You want to 513 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: talk about what story lines in football? Are you looking 514 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: forward to anything? Um? Yeah, tons of them. Dallas Cowboys, 515 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: I know you want to talk about them. I've reached 516 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 1: the point where every year we do this thing with 517 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: the Cowboys and we build them up and talk Cowboys, 518 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: talk Cowboys, and we do because we're like, all right, 519 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 1: you say it's like good for ratings or something, so 520 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: we'll keep talking about it. And it's always like just 521 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 1: this big old like catastrophe fart at the end of 522 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 1: the season never plays out ever, and like they they've 523 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 1: won three playoff games in twenty six years, and so 524 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: I'm like, it's something wrong with that. I don't have 525 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: any against them, it's just why do we keep prioritizing them, 526 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: Like people want to see the cop Like I don't. 527 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: I think you're talking about something from twenty years ago. 528 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,400 Speaker 1: I don't think people really want anymore. I don't think 529 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: that people want Lebron. Every segment we can show you spreadsheets. 530 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, we don't do the show that way. We 531 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 1: talk about what we want to talk about. So I 532 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: don't really against the Cowboys. I just don't want to 533 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 1: talk about them very much. So look, this year they'll 534 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: probably be the twelve and five and they're like they're 535 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: losing the first or second round, and then it'll just 536 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: keep going on and going on. So it is fascinating, 537 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: but it's just not my thing. I just can't do it. 538 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: I think it's great that you are allowed to be 539 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 1: so honest on a network that's run by the NFL. 540 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: I mean, when are you allowed or are you censored? 541 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: Quite a bit they tell you and go a little easy. No, 542 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: it's such a good question. That is the craziest thing. No, 543 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: it is because I think people watching and think that 544 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: we're told to say things and told not to say things. 545 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: It doesn't happen. It's it's the great thing that they 546 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: have done as a network and as the league that 547 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: like there's not like I walk off set and like 548 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,360 Speaker 1: Kyle and so and so needs to speak to you 549 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: never and like we say outlandish things sometimes. Burlison and 550 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: I used to start segments and we would talk to 551 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: the commercial break and we're like, all right, you want 552 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 1: to you want to go? You want to go? And 553 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:31,360 Speaker 1: we say yeah, and I want to go. I mean, 554 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 1: who can say the most outlandish thing in the segment? 555 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 1: We go back and forth and when the segment ends, 556 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: whoever is winning, like they win the segment, and Nate 557 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 1: would say, like this is Nate Tiffany Network, Mr CBS, 558 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: Like what would you say in like any windows? Like 559 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 1: you know, we had like these fake bagels on the 560 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: set once, and I remember Nate would like lick them 561 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: and like make like butt jokes about licking them, like 562 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: just crazy stuff on the air, and we'd be like, oh, Nate, 563 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: And then I'm like ship, I am not going to 564 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: top that and like that. That's the kind of thing 565 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 1: that Nate and I would do because that's offseason. We're born. 566 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: We can only talk about you know, Baker Mayfield so 567 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: many times and we would actually do that. So that's 568 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: your proof that. No, the network is never like can 569 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 1: you stop it with the butt jokes. No, it doesn't, 570 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: it doesn't really work like that. I think they like 571 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: the show for like the the recklessness that it has. Yeah, 572 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: I love it, And it also makes me so proud 573 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 1: just because you know, I'm friends and a huge fan 574 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: of you and Peter. When I talked to guys you 575 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: know at their venues or when I talked to you know, players, 576 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: and they're just like, oh, I love those guys. I 577 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: love those guys, And I was like, I do too, 578 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: their right friends. So I just think it's so cool. 579 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 1: And I know we always give you guys shoutouts during 580 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 1: our games, but it's really cool when you hear and 581 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 1: you see it in the facilities. Guys are walking by, 582 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 1: they're sitting there, they're talking, Hey, did you see what 583 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: Kyle and Peter did? And that always makes me so 584 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 1: excited for you. Any like kind of pinch me moments 585 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: when maybe I know Sugar doesn't want to say it, 586 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: but when Brady told him he was a big fan, 587 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: like you know, Schregger pets pants a little when he 588 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,679 Speaker 1: did sideline for that game. But any kind of pinched 589 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 1: me moment for you when an athlete was like, oh, yeah, 590 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,920 Speaker 1: I saw this, it was great. Well, yeah, definitely. And 591 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: and that is an awesome question too, because it brings 592 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: me to this idea that like, um, you go to 593 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: a camp or you go to a facility and like 594 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,959 Speaker 1: the players recognized you rather than opposite, which is crazy. 595 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: You know, I had a long talk with Rogers once 596 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: on my last show, and like I asked him a 597 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 1: question about something. I asked him a question about Aaron Rodgers, 598 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: about what's something in the media that drives you crazy? 599 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 1: And he answered the question goes but you know, first, 600 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: I just have to say that show that you guys 601 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 1: do is really fucking good, and you guys make sports 602 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 1: talk less douchy, and somebody needs to do that, because 603 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 1: you know how he feels about a lot of the 604 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: sports media. So the fact that he's like, I'll answer 605 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: you a question a second, but I need to give 606 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: you this compliment and he said, what you said. He's like, 607 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: it's on in the facility all the time. We're constantly 608 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 1: watching it. And I always did a little leary hearing that, 609 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 1: because look, I'm pretty critical sometimes with these guys, and 610 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: I always worried, like someone is sitting down with like 611 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: you know, their Caesar wrap or what ever, and like, 612 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,239 Speaker 1: just do what he's screaming about, Like I think they 613 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: should bench him. I don't think he cares like that. 614 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 1: That like messes with his mind a lot, But I 615 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 1: just keep doing it. I guess it's appropriate, I think so. 616 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if this is completely ignorant, but it 617 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 1: wasn't until that Adam Schefter tweet came out. I had 618 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,360 Speaker 1: no idea that you had an audition with the Mannings 619 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: for the Manning cast. Was that well known? Was that 620 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: out there? No? Not really? Um, you know, I was 621 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: using a lot of discretion. Part of me was like everyone, 622 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 1: look what I did. Who wants to touch me? I 623 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,239 Speaker 1: was auditioned for the Manning cast. But I was like no, no, no, 624 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 1: like they that's not how they operate, you know, and 625 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: like it was so cool? It is this is That 626 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: was the pinch me moment that was the biggest pinchman 627 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 1: moment I've had working in football because there was a 628 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: whole build up to it, and and I don't mind 629 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 1: telling you, Like the first thing. First, I get a 630 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: text from Eli, who I didn't even have my number, 631 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: and it's like, Hi, it's Eli. Would you like to 632 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: have lunch? So I go out and have lunch with 633 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 1: Eli and his kids like in the Hampton's. Like I was, 634 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: shut up, I've been here six years. I've never even 635 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: been to the Hampton's. I've never been there. And I 636 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: drove out there and we had like us lunch. Okay, 637 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: I'm glad you asked, and do it ship? Okay, what 638 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: to tell us? Everything? I wore like a like a 639 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: like a not a cool like a navy blue golf shirt, 640 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: just simple. It's like it was like a little country 641 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: club you. So I wore pants because you know, you 642 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: want to over overdo it, and then I wore like 643 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: nice sneakers. And Eli was basically in the same thing 644 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: head to toe. And I never met him before in 645 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 1: person other than like him coming on the show. And 646 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: then he just kind of shows up like exactly like 647 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: you think. It's It's like he's like Oh, it's elive 648 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 1: and I've known you for twenty years. Let's talk and 649 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: we just we talked about Nintendo games and beer and kids, 650 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: and like, I just thought it was awesome and I 651 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: felt it was a little bit of an audition. And 652 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: at one point Eli got this like like kind of 653 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: like cool look on his face and he like quizzed 654 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: me on something. I think he was trying to see 655 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 1: if I knew anything about football. He had just done 656 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: a thing with Larry Fitzgerald, and he's like, you know, 657 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: Larry and I were Heisman finalists together and I got hut, 658 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: and he goes, but neither of us want do you 659 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: know who won?

So like it was so it was like 662 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,719 Speaker 1: being called on by the teacher and just knowing the answer, 663 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: my confidence like blew up. Then how much time did 664 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: you allow between the question and your answer? Did? I mean, 665 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: did you just like let a breathe take a simple water? Like? 666 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: How hot did you do it? Tell me? I had 667 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: an ice cold PACIFICO in these great pant glasses wherever 668 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: he was, I straight up took a sip. I'm like, 669 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna enjoy this moment because he's just like looking 670 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: at me. It was the only time the whole lunch 671 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: that he like tested me and I just put it down. 672 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: I was like, it's Jason White and from Oklahoma and 673 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: he was like his eyes lit up like that. It 674 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: was so cool. It was it was awesome, Like I 675 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: felt like I took a t s there and like 676 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: I felt just dropped the pencil, turned it in. It 677 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 1: was so badass, so sexy. So then you go and 678 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: then did you guys do a whole kind of like 679 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: audition together? How it's crazy? And then you know, between 680 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: the ELI lunch and the and the audition, shortly after 681 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: ELI lunch, I got private number from Denver, Colorado, and 682 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 1: I think I know who this is, and I, you know, 683 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: you slide the thing and hello, Kyle's Peyton Manning and 684 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: I was like, hey, what's up, Payton? How are you doing? Payton? 685 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: Did you know that ELI and Larry Fitzgerald or has 686 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: been finals together? But now? And then he talked and 687 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: he was just awesome and funny and everything. And so 688 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: then a week later, uh yeah, this is this was 689 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: like the Full Acid Trip where they I was invited 690 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 1: by ESPN and the people from Omahaw Productions to go 691 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: into Zoom and there's felt like there was fifty executives 692 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: in the windows, like it's a checkerboard, and Eli is 693 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: there right on time. I'm there early, and Rock all 694 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: just kind of like make an awkward small talk and 695 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 1: then like Peyton, like Peyton comes up and it's like 696 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 1: hail to the Chief and everything, and the test was 697 00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: potentially really awkward because they okay, guys, so we have 698 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 1: Brown's Ravens from this is Lamar versus Baker Mayfield and 699 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: we're just gonna start the game and you three just 700 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: talk and I'm like, all right, Peyton, because I felt 701 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:13,239 Speaker 1: like I had to be a little bit of like 702 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 1: a like a host, almost like a little bit of 703 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: a point guard, like a leader. So I go, I 704 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 1: just go, all right, Peyton, I'm just gonna say something 705 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: off the top and then I'll toss it to you. 706 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: And he's like all right, And I was like I 707 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 1: was a little out over my skis, so I did 708 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: like a little intro that I thought was kind of 709 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: witty and tossed in to them and then we for 710 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: about forty minutes, me and Peyton and Eli talked over 711 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: Brown's Ravens and it was unbelievably surreal. And the best 712 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: part is that you would relate to maybe is that 713 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 1: so it ends? And I felt I felt good, Like 714 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 1: I didn't talk a ton, but that was good, and 715 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: I made some jokes and I made them laugh and 716 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: all that the executive caused me afterwards, and he goes, 717 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 1: so that was great. What do you think? And this 718 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 1: was like a major crossroads moment because there was what 719 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 1: I really thought in my head, and then there was 720 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: what I felt I should say. What I felt I 721 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: should say was, oh, I think I did in great. 722 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 1: I'd love to do it, and like, I think I 723 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: could really provide some good opportunities and for TV for them. 724 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 1: But what I really thought is what I did say, 725 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: which is, like, dude, they don't need a host, not me, 726 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: not Johnny Carson, not al Might, nobody, Like they should 727 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: not have a host. Peyton is as advertised, he is brilliant, 728 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: ellis perfect. Like I think I would really only be 729 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: in the way, and I don't think he should hire anybody. 730 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 1: And obviously I think that was the right choice because 731 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,720 Speaker 1: that's amazing. I wouldn't have done that. I would have 732 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: been like, so I'm great, here's what I need for 733 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: a styling and glam fee. It was just sootless of you. 734 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 1: But that's great. Yeah, it was. It was like the 735 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: two and them like the chemistry and then like they're 736 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 1: they're getting really into the football nuance, and it was 737 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 1: like it was like I felt like I was like 738 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: kind of shooting around with like Lebron and Janice and like, 739 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 1: you know, I can make a few lamps, but like 740 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 1: I'm not really I don't need to be there like 741 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 1: you guys, just I'm only gonna get in the way. 742 00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 1: And but then when it came out though, and it 743 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: was like the biggest thing in the world all I 744 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 1: was like, God, damn, that'd be nice to be there. Um, 745 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But I think end of 746 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: the right thing. But you obviously hit it off with 747 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: both of them. A Maha Productions.

So we're eating and we're there for a while, 818 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,759 Speaker 1: and when no one had ordered alcohol, so in a 819 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 1: meeting like that as in a date, I said, like, 820 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna try to shake things up. I'm 821 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,399 Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna order a beer. And I ordered the beer. 822 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: And when I did, Eli was basically like, oh my god, 823 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,799 Speaker 1: thank you. Like he didn't say that, but like all 824 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: the way it came off the shoulders and you can relate, 825 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 1: like it probably would be even more if I were 826 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,720 Speaker 1: into Martini. So there's that thing about I'm just gonna 827 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 1: go for it. And if this person thinks I'm like 828 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 1: unprofessional or something idiotic, fine, but like this is me 829 00:37:57,640 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 1: and this is what they're getting. So I got the 830 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,799 Speaker 1: first beer and I think Eli ordered the second. The 831 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: second round, so oh thank god.
