WEBVTT - MINI: The Super Bowl 

0:00:01.120 --> 0:00:08.039
<v Speaker 1>Got anything. Dad. Hey, this is the Christian ocunnell Show podcast.

0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:13.800
<v Speaker 2>Let's cost live to Philadelphia and I'm in there. E Roch,

0:00:14.000 --> 0:00:14.680
<v Speaker 2>are you there?

0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:17.520
<v Speaker 1>Yes? I am. How are you well?

0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:20.800
<v Speaker 2>Great? E Rock? Welcome to the show. So the super Bowl?

0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Can Philadelphia?

0:00:22.520 --> 0:00:22.599
<v Speaker 3>Do?

0:00:22.800 --> 0:00:23.040
<v Speaker 1>I know?

0:00:23.160 --> 0:00:25.400
<v Speaker 2>I've seen you stuff on Instagram. You are a mad

0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:28.880
<v Speaker 2>one eyed Philadelphia Eagles super fan. I love the passion.

0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:33.519
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yeah, Can the Eagles do it? Absolutely? Do? I

0:00:33.560 --> 0:00:36.839
<v Speaker 1>think the Kansas City Chiefs pose a great threat and

0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:39.640
<v Speaker 1>are a great team and a great friendship with the

0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:43.040
<v Speaker 1>referees sometimes. Absolutely. Listen. We saw it a couple of

0:00:43.120 --> 0:00:46.920
<v Speaker 1>years ago. You know, the Birds, you know, were one

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:50.520
<v Speaker 1>holding penalty short of beaten Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs

0:00:50.600 --> 0:00:54.120
<v Speaker 1>once before. But I think this time this Eagles team

0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:57.720
<v Speaker 1>has a nastier defense, they got the league's leading rusher,

0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:00.160
<v Speaker 1>and we're all gearing up to get ready to have

0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:03.480
<v Speaker 1>the biggest party on Broad Street after Sunday's game.

0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:05.640
<v Speaker 2>Now, I remember quite a few years ago in twenty

0:01:05.680 --> 0:01:09.160
<v Speaker 2>eighteen when you last won it and the city just

0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:12.240
<v Speaker 2>went feral. You just went mad because Eagles fans are

0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:15.520
<v Speaker 2>knowing all over the world are being sort of super fans.

0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 3>Plus yeah, well, let's make no bones about it. Other

0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:22.640
<v Speaker 3>fans can say whatever they want. We are the craziest,

0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:26.680
<v Speaker 3>most passionate, most energetic, most loyal fan base in the

0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:30.560
<v Speaker 3>entire NFL. Heck, we're hoping all of Australia over there

0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:32.319
<v Speaker 3>is going to be Eagles fans because we.

0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:34.360
<v Speaker 1>Got one of your own. We got Jordan Mallatt on

0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:38.119
<v Speaker 1>our team. We're hoping to bring some Australian craziness with us.

0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:40.360
<v Speaker 1>But absolutely we didn't know what it was like to

0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:43.919
<v Speaker 1>win a Super Bowl. So we were climbing poles, setting

0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:47.000
<v Speaker 1>off fireworks in the street, just partying. But it was

0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:48.240
<v Speaker 1>all positive energy.

0:01:48.520 --> 0:01:50.520
<v Speaker 2>Now you're right now, Australia, will we watch in this

0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl? Because often Australians out in the NFL are

0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:56.640
<v Speaker 2>normally punters, you know that is put on to kick

0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:58.720
<v Speaker 2>the boat as far as again his punted down the field.

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:01.760
<v Speaker 2>But obviously he's a key man. He's a left tackle,

0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:03.360
<v Speaker 2>so this is a big role.

0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Left tackle. To explain to people that don't know American football,

0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:12.360
<v Speaker 1>left tackle has to be the biggest, baddest, meanest dude

0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 1>because their best pass rusher, which is the guy trying

0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:18.640
<v Speaker 1>to in essence murder your quarterback. He had the most

0:02:18.639 --> 0:02:21.000
<v Speaker 1>talented guy on their team is on the left side

0:02:21.000 --> 0:02:24.080
<v Speaker 1>because that's the quarterback's blind side. He can't see him

0:02:24.120 --> 0:02:28.079
<v Speaker 1>coming right. So Jordan Malatta, the pride of Australia right

0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:31.520
<v Speaker 1>and on the Philadelphia Eagles Pro Bowl left tackle is

0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:35.919
<v Speaker 1>in charge of protecting Jailen Hurts from getting absolutely obliterated

0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:36.280
<v Speaker 1>out there.

0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:38.919
<v Speaker 2>I was watching some of the footage and one of

0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:41.440
<v Speaker 2>the commentatess was because he's a big dude, but that's

0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:43.600
<v Speaker 2>just like what six eight hundred and sixty hundred and

0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:47.320
<v Speaker 2>seventy kilos and he was just popping these guys like pretzels.

0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:51.400
<v Speaker 2>The commentates of the yet analysis just went, he's voting

0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:52.240
<v Speaker 2>people in half.

0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 1>He really is. He's a massive human being. I've had

0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:57.720
<v Speaker 1>the pleasure of meeting him a couple of times. I'm

0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:06.040
<v Speaker 1>five foot six, my friend, exactly like you ever Steve

0:03:06.080 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 1>would ventriloquist with like a puppet zombies like that, That's

0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:11.320
<v Speaker 1>what I look like standing.

0:03:10.960 --> 0:03:13.160
<v Speaker 3>Next thing, and so have you?

0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:14.720
<v Speaker 2>Have you taken to him?

0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 1>We love him. Not only is he an incredible athlete,

0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:21.959
<v Speaker 1>an incredible player and good at his job. Philadelphia is

0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:25.120
<v Speaker 1>a tough city, right. We don't like everybody, but he

0:03:25.200 --> 0:03:28.920
<v Speaker 1>has such a connection with the fans. Certain players have

0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:31.680
<v Speaker 1>to be spokespeople for the team, right they just have

0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:36.840
<v Speaker 1>that outgoing personality they represent the organization well. Jordan Mulatta

0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:42.480
<v Speaker 1>has slid into that player personality, media savvy. Like, it's

0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:45.720
<v Speaker 1>so weird in Philadelphia to be like, here's our favorite

0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:48.200
<v Speaker 1>eagle and he speaks with an Australian act, you know

0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:51.400
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. It's so wild, but he does. He's

0:03:51.440 --> 0:03:55.400
<v Speaker 1>embraced the city, he's embraced the sports, nothing about the

0:03:55.480 --> 0:03:58.560
<v Speaker 1>game and became unbelievable at it right here in Philly.

0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:01.720
<v Speaker 2>It's incredible sports story because he never picked up an

0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:05.200
<v Speaker 2>American football until about twenty eighteen, and then he becomes

0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:06.160
<v Speaker 2>a big star.

0:04:06.720 --> 0:04:09.040
<v Speaker 1>It's almost what you want because a lot of these

0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:12.040
<v Speaker 1>guys that have gone through pee wee football as a kid,

0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:15.640
<v Speaker 1>in high school football, college football, it's almost like they

0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:19.240
<v Speaker 1>learn bad habits. When if you get a massive six

0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:21.760
<v Speaker 1>foot eight offs right in front of you that you

0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:25.799
<v Speaker 1>know is athletic, that you know can truck dudes would

0:04:25.880 --> 0:04:29.640
<v Speaker 1>run people over. From Australian rules that you know rugby

0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:32.559
<v Speaker 1>and everything like that, you almost have an unmolded piece

0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:37.479
<v Speaker 1>of clays Line. Yeah, our offensive line coach, who's the

0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:40.080
<v Speaker 1>best in the NFL, said, Okay, I'm going to take

0:04:40.120 --> 0:04:43.599
<v Speaker 1>this raw talent and I'm going to teach him exactly

0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:47.000
<v Speaker 1>everything I want him to do, the way I want

0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:48.760
<v Speaker 1>him to do it, and how to do it. And

0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:51.279
<v Speaker 1>he was open to learning picked up on it. Boom

0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:53.840
<v Speaker 1>becomes the best left tackle in the National Football League.

0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:56.840
<v Speaker 2>And what Draff pick was, he was way way way down.

0:04:57.160 --> 0:05:00.320
<v Speaker 1>He was a seventh round pick. A couple of hundred

0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:05.240
<v Speaker 1>people got picked. And I think with him being from Australia,

0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:07.760
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden, now, much like Major League Baseball

0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:11.160
<v Speaker 1>and much like basketball, the eyes of shifted to international.

0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:13.840
<v Speaker 1>Where can we find these diamonds in the rough? And

0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:16.200
<v Speaker 1>we found our first big one right there.

0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:18.800
<v Speaker 2>It means that, you know, obviously the game is later

0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:20.960
<v Speaker 2>on this morning, Monday morning for ours because of the

0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:24.600
<v Speaker 2>time difference. It means that every big Australian is now

0:05:24.600 --> 0:05:26.880
<v Speaker 2>going to be watching the Super Bowl going, that's it.

0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:30.479
<v Speaker 2>I'm heading to America. Get me an NFL team. I'm

0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:32.920
<v Speaker 2>six s eight, I'm fat, I'm massive, I'm going to

0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:34.920
<v Speaker 2>be a millionaire. Where's Taylor Swift?

0:05:36.839 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 1>Hey? Listen exactly and if you're one of those people,

0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:42.320
<v Speaker 1>I want you to call up Howie Roseman, who is

0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:48.479
<v Speaker 1>our general manager. Don't talk to the New York Giants

0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:51.679
<v Speaker 1>where they're terrible team. You'll do nothing but lose.

0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:53.400
<v Speaker 2>Now, Listen, I don't want to be the voice of

0:05:53.440 --> 0:05:55.880
<v Speaker 2>doubt here, okay, but what happens if you lose? What

0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:58.000
<v Speaker 2>happens to that party five? If you lose? I hate

0:05:58.040 --> 0:05:58.800
<v Speaker 2>to even say it.

0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 1>Well, listen, we have everyone's going to be drunk. I mean, let's.

0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:08.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because booze and losing go really well, they're really

0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:10.000
<v Speaker 2>good partners exactly.

0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:12.280
<v Speaker 1>And if we lose, the only thing I'll ask you

0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:16.880
<v Speaker 1>guys to do Pray for us, Pray for our city.

0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:22.200
<v Speaker 2>Hope some prayers. Hope some prayers. My friend, Eric, enjoy

0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:23.720
<v Speaker 2>your Super Bowl. Thanks for chatting to us.

0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Mate, you got it. Take care of guys.

0:06:26.440 --> 0:06:28.840
