00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,480

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: Wow.

8
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,320

14
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 4: lot of movement and shaking and all that stuff where

Speaker 4: we are scheduled to have someone on the podcast later.

16
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: Danny, Yes, we don't know exactly who. We're not sure

17
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: if they don't name, are you know?

18
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 5: Little he told me who it's gonna be.

19
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, well we'll see what happened to you.

20
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 4: I have to keep listening to the podcast, but I

21
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 4: I did have somebody for the first time ever. Usually

22
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 4: people come up to me, they'll say you look like

23
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 4: some random like old like baseball player, like I got

24
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 4: a lot of John Lackey references. But I was walking around, uh,

25
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 4: and this guy came up to me. He's like, hey,

26
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 4: I thought I was one of the guys from that

27
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 4: that History Channel show Okay Flusters.

28
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think it's because of the hat.

29
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 5: You look like the guy from Pond Stars too. I'll

30
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 5: do it so our our guest booker lead. Maybe she

31
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 5: could walk you around later and get you on some

32
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 5: other shows.

33
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: Yes, the Pond Stars look like a reality show.

34
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 4: That would be That would be good. The money from

35
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 4: the reality show. Well, you were on TV this week,

36
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 4: Danny Reay. I saw a photo on social media. Yeah,

37
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 4: he got off the plane.

38
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 5: It was cool. As soon as we got off the plane,

39
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 5: this reporter ran up to me and there was a

40
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 5: bright light and a camera in my face and she said,

41
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 5: so you're all raided out. Which team are you going

42
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 5: to root for in the Super Bowl? And I told

43
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,519
Speaker 5: her neither. I hate those colors. And it was kind

44
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 5: of cool. She was joking around with me about you

45
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 5: know what it would be like in the city of

46
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 5: Las Vegas as a Raider fan with those two red

47
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 5: teams here in the building.

48
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, for sure. So you didn't see it though,

49
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: you don't know if you made the actual cut.

50
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 5: Her camera guy afterwards told me this will be on

51
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 5: Channel thirteen later and I was like, okay, cool, Yeah,

52
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 5: I don't who knows if I was on the cutting

53
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 5: room floor or not.

54
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: Though maybe something. Maybe some of their website you can

55
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: check out.

56
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 5: I have such a punchable face. I doubt they used

57
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 5: the footage. Oh, come on, they probably did. They probably

58
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 5: used it.

59
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. So we're obviously here hanging out for the super

60
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: Bowl and the TV show which is airing today, and

61
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: this is the last weekend Benny versus the Penny. You

62
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: can check that out.

63
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 4: So I did a bunch of research for the TV

64
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 4: show for the Super Bowl.

65
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,040
Speaker 1: I finally, so this is yeah, exactly, since this, I

66
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: gotta use.

67
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 4: This stuff because it's all gonna be dated tomorrow by tomorrow, right,

68
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 4: so I gotta use something.

69
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: I thought, this is interesting because everyone's gonna.

70
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 4: Be watching this thing, and some of the stuff I've

71
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 4: used on the TV show, but not all of these

72
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 4: are the interesting things. Danny, and we'll just do a

73
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 4: few minutes of the interesting things about Super Bowl fifty

74
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 4: eight to get you ready for the game. So, the

75
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 4: forty nine ers, who are a slight favorite in this

76
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 4: game over Kansas City have been favored in every single

77
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 4: game they played this season, and they are favored, as

78
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 4: we said in the super Bowl. But is it true, Danny,

79
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,679
Speaker 4: they actually have a losing record. If you're a gambler,

80
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 4: that is true. They are nine to ten against the spread,

81
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 4: So you know, typically if you're a truly dominant team,

82
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 4: you can dominate the point spread. But the Niners have

83
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 4: not been able to dominate that. So if you would

84
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 4: actually have a losing record betting on Kansas City this year.

85
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 4: Another thing is interesting brock perty and I think I

86
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 4: mentioned this on the TV show. If you watched it,

87
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 4: you can verify that. But he's actually played worse on

88
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 4: the road. I know this is technically a neutral side game,

89
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 4: but it's a road game. The forty nine ers are

90
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 4: staying at a hotel or they.

91
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 1: Fly in and all that.

92
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 4: And yeah, so brock Purty is his negative drop back rate,

93
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 4: which is I think got a stat for everything, twenty

94
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 4: three percent, and that's actually just in the postseason, and

95
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 4: those are the home games. And if that had been

96
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 4: the regular season, worst of all, worst of all quarterbacks.

97
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:27,159
Speaker 1: In the NFL.

98
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 4: So he's not he's winning, but he hasn't been playing

99
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 4: that great and he's had his worst performances actually on

100
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 4: the road.

101
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: If you look at the regular season. So I know

102
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 1: that was interesting.

103
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 4: And Patrick Mahomes on the other side in the in

104
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 4: Allegian Stadium, Danny, and you know this as a Raider fan.

105
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 4: He's played there four times and he's four to ozher

106
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 4: in that stadium and he has ten touchdown passes and

107
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 4: one interception in that building.

108
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 5: Do you think Patrick Mahomes is going to vomit all

109
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 5: over his or do you think he'll show up in

110
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 5: crunch time the way he's been known to do.

111
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: Uh?

112
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, I'm picking Kansas City, so I trust him more.

113
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 4: Plus like the forty nine Ers defenses, and this was

114
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 4: the story this week, they weren't even playing hard in

115
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 4: the NFC Championship game.

116
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: How do you not do that? What's up with that?

117
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 4: Right?

118
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 1: You can't play hard in the NFC Championship game? My goodness. Anyway, Yeah,

119
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: I'm picking the and the Chiefs on the other hand,

120
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,799
Speaker 1: they have a great record when they've been an underdog

121
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes ten one and one against suspend. I

122
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: mean to give you all kinds of random numbers.

123
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 4: I mentioned brock Purty has the most negative graded drop

124
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 4: backs in the playoffs. But Patrick Mahomes I actually on

125
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 4: the TV show, I predicted, we did some prop bets.

126
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 4: I did predict he's gonna have an interception. He said,

127
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 4: zero turnover worthy throws. They keep track of that stuff

128
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 4: too in the in the postseason so far, and he's not.

129
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 4: He's it's the last six games in the playoffs he

130
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 4: hasn't had an interception.

131
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:09,039
Speaker 1: So there is that's the longest streak in the NFL. Yeah,

132
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: how about that? You got crickets. You're staring at me.

133
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: What is wrong with you?

134
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 6: Daddy?

135
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 1: You have no no other stories. That's it. You're done.

136
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 1: You've been here all week and you don't have anything.

137
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: That's it.

138
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 6: No.

139
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 5: You know what I see?

140
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: I see Arthur Blanco. He's wearing a red jacket. Oh,

141
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 1: that looks like a smoking jackets. He's the guy that

142
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: started Home Depot. That guy.

143
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, imagine how much money he's got right start Home Depot.

144
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 5: Two nights ago, got to go see the Ti Femo

145
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:46,600
Speaker 5: fight and the crowd was booing, even even his fans

146
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 5: were booing on Ben because he was fighting Ortiz and

147
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 5: Ortiz danced around in the ring the entire twelve rounds,

148
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 5: pulled to de la Hoya, especially at the end. He

149
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 5: just didn't want h T. Femo to get a fist

150
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 5: anywhere near and so it was one of those fights

151
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 5: where you could tell the puncher TiO was frustrated and

152
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 5: Ortiz just didn't want to. He's a good they call

153
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 5: him the technician. He's got good boxing skills, but he

154
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 5: ran around the ring the whole time.

155
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: Boo.

156
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 5: The Mandalay Bay Event Center was just booing NonStop. I

157
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 5: don't know if you're into boxing that much, but no,

158
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 5: I like.

159
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 1: I'm more into boxing than like in the MMA, stough

160
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: not as much.

161
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 5: So this is straight boxing. And I sat next year

162
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 5: boy Rob Parker.

163
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: The Great Rob, and must have been free tickets.

164
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 5: Free tickets, Well, it's funny you should say that. Not

165
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 5: just free tickets to get in, but they had these

166
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 5: meal cards where you could get a food menu item

167
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 5: of your choice and a free drink. So some of

168
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 5: us in the Covino and rich party didn't even get

169
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 5: a meal ticket. Guess how many Rob had. He had

170
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 5: a stack of them in his wallet.

Speaker 4: to drink tickets.

178
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,400

273

274
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 4: never been to a radio row. I'd always been denied

275
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,280

276
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,800

Speaker 6: twenty years, my first time. I'm well most of the time.

283
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 6: You know, I'm back at the main studio and I'm

284
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 6: the intake bringing everything in.

285
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: As the z Dog used to say, you're holding down

286
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: the fort.

287
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 4: That's right, I used to tell any I don't want

288
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 4: to hold down the fourth hold the Fort's good.

289
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: I don't need to hold down the fort.

290
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 6: It's not going anywhere exactly. It's not even very windy.

291
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 4: So you was was this they three they popped up,

292
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 4: say hey, we wanted it be this year.

293
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: How did how did they hows this happen?

294
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 6: So the truth of the matter is our our enterprise.

295
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 6: Our production has grown so much over the years with

296
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 6: all the new platforms, and everybody's got a podcast now. Look,

297
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 6: I'm on one right now, the fifth hour recording. That's right,

298
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 6: I've on tape right. Ten years ago we were not,

299
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 6: there was none of this going on. There were no

300
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 6: podcast recordings, and now we're doing tons of them while

301
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 6: we're here. Plus we're doing four live shows on a

302
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 6: daily basis. And the logistics of making all that happen, Boy,

303
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 6: that's just a lot.

304
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 4: So yeah, and so like to describe it. You've probably

305
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 4: seen photos on on social media and all that. But

306
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 4: there's this massive set which I think is worth more

307
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 4: than me. The net worth of this set is.

308
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,679
Speaker 1: I would agree, more than I'm worth, and you, by

309
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: the way, certainly.

310
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 6: Put us both together and it's still worth more than both. Yes.

311
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 4: So there's this main set which is like all the

312
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 4: bells and whistles, get the Fox Sports Radio logo and

313
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 4: all that. It's a really beautiful I would say it's

314
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 4: to me, it's the most impressive thing in this whole

315
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 4: radio row.

316
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 6: Well, it really catches your eye when you walk in

317
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 6: the door. First thing you see Pops, Yeah, Pops. So

318
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,680

319
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 6: And there's like two different portals for podcasting, right, there's

320
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 6: that now that side and then where we are, which

321
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 6: I think is what is that side for? Is that

322
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 6: for podcasting too? Don't yet or pre recorded in it. Basically,

323
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 6: you know, we've got our guest booker, Lee Mayok, who

324
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 6: does a tremendous job, and you know she's out here

325
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 6: trying to hunt down people that are interesting, and you.

326
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,720

Speaker 4: to you because I know you and you're interesting. Some

328
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,920

329
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 4: but let's be honest, some of these guys, uh very dull.

330
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: So I don't want to do a dull podcast.

331
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 4: I think what you do is interesting in the fact

332
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 4: that I've known you for a long time and all

333
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:10,480

Speaker 1: But yeah, Lee runs around and.

335
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 6: She grabs him and drags him over here, and maybe

336
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 6: most of the time against their will.

337
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,720

449
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 6: I've been to was was opening of the ESPN Zone

450
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 6: at Downtown Disney background back of the Old Show. I

451
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 6: got invited to that and it was very similar. They

452
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 6: had just massive amounts of food. The best thing though,

453
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 6: was they had a hostess like display where it was

454
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 6: just ding dongs and ho hos and twinkies and all

455
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,840

00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 6: through the roof that day. That's for damn sure.

457
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:21,840

459
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 4: so I do this inter minute fasting thing, right, but

460
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 4: I do believe in rare and appropriate and media freeloading

461
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 4: events are rare and appropriate prop for it. All diets

462
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 4: are out the window for the day I can fall

463
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 4: off the wagon. I can, I can get back right,

464
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 4: not consistently off exactly, yeah, exactly. And this last year

465

468
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 4: I already look fat. I tell Looney all the time,

469
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 4: and he has the same.

470
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 6: That it's not fair. You can't compare yourself to.

471
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 4: Well Looney's you know, goes to Mexico for steroids or

472
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,120
Speaker 4: but I tell them that, But kid, because I care,

473
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 4: as Chris Myers would say all that, Hey, don't judge me, byer.

474
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 4: How dare you damn bayer over there judging This guy

475
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 4: played for the Carolina Panthers.

476
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,959
Speaker 6: No, there's no man, No that's not that's not you did.

477
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,640
Speaker 1: He was the left tackle for the Carolina Patters in

478
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 1: the year two thousand and three. For the Carolina fans,

479
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 1: I don't think so you could say that, though you

480
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: could probably claim.

481
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 6: Nobody will have any idea whether it's.

482
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 4: Exactly I mean you'd be like the ultimate heart. Oh,

483
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,199
Speaker 4: you would have to be the ultimate heart to know

484
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,439
Speaker 4: who these people are, right right, that's the good thing

485
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,679
Speaker 4: about offensivelignment. And you only know who they are when

486
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 4: they're drafted, if they're in the first round, because people

487
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 4: get all excited left tackle for the next ten years

488
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 4: and this is gonna be the greatest thing we're b

489
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 4: and then if they suck, because then you rip them,

490
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:55,640
Speaker 4: you call radio shows.

491
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 6: He is post on the sea when they throw the flag,

492
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 6: you know who the offensive line y?

493
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, right, yeah, if you're if you're a left

494
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 4: tackle is leading, like like the Chiefs this weekend, tomorrow

495
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:09,639
Speaker 4: and the Super Bowl, they have the most penalized offensive

496
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 4: lineman this year. Like it just the ones that kill

497
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 4: you that they jump off sides, the false start ones,

498
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 4: like what are you doing?

499
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 6: You can't even wait for the snap, Like, seriously, it's

500
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 6: not it's not rocket surgery.

501
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, come on, it's not that. Its job

502
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 4: is not that hard. It is not that difficult.

503
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 6: And then on the other side, you got Trent Williams,

504
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 6: who may be rock you know, he's maybe the greatest

505
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 6: left tackle in the game right now.

506
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, right now, yeah, my favorite tackle.

507
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 4: Jackie Slater my age, and I've i've uh, I've.

508
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: Told the story.

509
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 4: We had Jackie on the podcast actually a couple of

510
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 4: years ago. But with the Rams when I was a kid,

511
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 4: I've told this story a few times. I haven't told

512
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 4: a while. So I was a kid my mom, you know,

513
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 4: growing up in Olich Canyon of the Rams trained in

514
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 4: Irvine and cal State Fullerton, and so my mom would

515
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 4: occasionally drop me off at Rams training camp nice and

516
00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 4: since I was a little fat kid, I thought I

517
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 4: was gonna play in the off offensive line. Of course

518
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 4: Jackie was playing for the Rams, and so I would

519
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 4: go over to the offensive lineman. And this is so

520
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 4: long ago. It's like the Stone age. You go to

521
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 4: training camp now, it's like security. There's fences everywhere, you

522
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 4: can't get around. There was like one guy in a

523
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 4: folding chair, and like I was, we were all like

524
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 4: standing right near the lineman when they would come over

525
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 4: to get water and they would curse and fart and

526
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,120
Speaker 4: it was and I I.

527
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: Told you, Jackie, oh yeah, I remember those days.

528
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 5: You know.

529
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 4: It was very as a child, that was very impressionable.

530
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 4: I was like great memories, like you could never have

531
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 4: that expouse.

532
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 6: Yeah, that doesn't happen.

533
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 4: Now, everything's if you've been to the NFL Experience thing,

534
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 4: which is around Have you gone through that whole rigamor

535
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 4: that's a giant.

536
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, I gotta tell you didn't bother. No, I mean,

537
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 6: it's just there's too much. It's frankly, it is too

538
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 6: far away. I don't feel like walking on that far.

539
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 1: Oh I don't even know. I don't even know. It's

540
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: a massive complex.

541
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,119
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's huge. And but you know, I've seen the

542
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 6: pictures in the video and it looks exciting for you know, fans.

543
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 6: But again, you know, in a round roll were veterans, right,

544
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 6: it's hard to get excited about stuff like that anymore.

545
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 1: Have you picked up any souvenirs? Are gonna take anything

546

00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,959

571
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:09,640
Speaker 6: NFL guy.

572
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,840

573
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:13,360
Speaker 4: lineman from like two thousand and three.

574
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 1: No one would know. He could probably do interviews around

575
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 1: here and say that he played for the Panthers, just

576
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:18,040
