It's time to go one-on-one with D.P. Coming at you live from the Coppel Chevrolet GMC Studios. Here is your host, Derek Pearson, brought you by Mary Ellen's Food for the Soul, on 93-7 The Ticket and the Ticket FM.com. Welcome to it on a Monday. It's Friday, and you made it. Mark Onweiler, I had to, I had to. To send this to...

Get in here, Mark. No, no. Let me... Let's get the... Let's get the first things first. I want to thank the folks from Mary Ellen's Pooh for the Soul. Went there last night, Rico, got the fried chicken, collard greens, mac, and cheese. I saw your video. I'm sorry.

I don't like you. Because you didn't bring any. But he also had Peach Cobbler. That sounds tasty. And, of course, Orange Fana. It's so good. But let's bring in the owner. Let's bring in the man himself, Charles Phillips.

From Mary Ellen's Food for the Soul. Charles, what's happening today, man? Good morning, D.P. How are you doing this morning? I'm good, brother. I got, I had some of your love, man. That's, look, look, you hit a home run with that one. I felt like a new man. So you are appreciate it. So what's going on? What are you going to do this weekend?

Is the truck going to be around? Are there specials in the store? Talk to me. Well, it is Friday. It's one of our lovely most busiest days of the week. Me and the wife are cooking up some goodness. As you said, she has the peach cobbler crunch on the menu this evening. But especially we're doing a smoke prime rib, the baby back ribs, the beef brisket, catfish.

Of course, the lovely fried chicken at you particking. It's always wonderful to see you and the wife. then the size we got the mac and cheese the baked beans the collard greens the smother potatoes not sure if the wife is going to put the sweet potato casserole on again but the cold slaw and all that goodness going on this evening it's just a beautiful time we love cooking for our community we love to see everybody come out so we're looking forward to a wonderful evening the food truck will be out tomorrow uh oh my goodness, I forget the name.

Yeah, we're out by last loads, but we've got so many things going on. I apologize about that. Yeah, you're a busy man. Yes, sir, yes, sir. I'm trying to think of, we're going to be out there with you July 31st with the football guys Sunday morning pancake.

What's going on July 31st that we're going to partake in? July 31st, we're having our car show, cars for cancer. As you know, I lost my mom to cancer. So we thought it would be a great way to show, you know, bring awareness to cancer, first of all, and my mother's name, and then have some beautiful classic cars out there on the south side. I don't think we've ever had anything at that 27th place. So we're looking forward to doing some good things for a wonderful cause that's dear to my heart. We will be out there with you, the events from 11 to 2, but we'll be out there with the Sunday morning pancakes guys as well.

You do a thing called Breakfast Bros. Give a little insight to that. Well, we have a bunch of the men in the community that come together and just basically, you know, know, build with each other, learn each other, see what's going on with each other, and I basically get to know, you know, a lot of the new guys that come in town, they don't know, you know, they want things, they got things they want to do. And it's basically a way to find out, you know, how we could help each other, because, you know, when you come to town or you're here and you're not, you don't have a community to build on, whether it's the church, whether you're looking for a restaurant, whether you're looking for a job, you can get together with these guys.

and get pointed in the right direction. So we do that once a month at our event space, Sweet A, and we would love to have you come down and check it out one. So Sweet A is another project for you. And you've created a space that can host events, receptions, parties, meetings, et cetera. Give us the detail on Sweet A. Sweet A, we wanted to create an intimate space for the community and joy on the south side.

And with it being right connected to our restaurant, once again, we don't require you to have us cater. But what we found out is, being in the food truck world, in the catering world, that there were so many people looking for a space that was smaller. You have those huge 300-person venues, and not everybody needs that. So the wife and I wanted to create a smaller intimate space where you can have those intimate gatherings, those Zoom meetings, those baby showers, those sweet 16s, those bar mitzvahs, and, you know, even, you know, just getting together with the guys. So we can fit up to 100 people That has a 60 foot outdoor patio There's two huge garages Which you know

Weather permitting It's a beautiful space to have open air We have full bar And you can set it up however you want We just did a Sweet 16 We just did a A Zoom meeting with Swanson and Russell We have Mathesons

Coming down Monday They're doing a lunch So it's been going pretty good DP And we love the fact that the community has been using us for their facility, for, for their, to host their events, excuse me. So how would folks reach out? What, what information can you give for folks who are interested in using your facilities?

You can go to suedea events.com, Maryellons.com, or you can contact our catering director, Nate Wisderet, Direct at 402, 304-8-7445. And D.P., we do have something coming up Tuesday to 19th that we'd like to let everybody know. We have the Italian vine, and they're coming down to Sweet A, and they're doing a wine tasting. And we are pairing some of our smoked meats with their wonderful wines. And that's going to be at 5 p.m. July 19th at Sweet A, which is 2801 Pine Lake Rose Sweet A. Who can be involved in this, sir? Who can be involved in this?

D.P., you know you don't need an invite. You are welcome. My 93-7 family is always welcome to anything that we're doing. But, yes, contact Nate Woods, marie ellen's.com, sweetieevents.com. Or you can call a restaurant for reservations. Actually, they are going pretty quick. People have been calling.

We got some six parties, some eight parties that are coming down and enjoy the wine. and our smoke meats. So yes, we have John and Mark from the Italian vine, and it will be breaking down all the beautiful wines. They're so knowledgeable. And, you know, I personally need to learn more about wines, and I think there's a lot of people in the community

that would like to as well. So we're going to see how it goes. It's looking like it's going to be a great event. Sounds like a great event. As a matter of fact, I just put it in Sharpie. You said wine and smoked meat. I don't think you can get any better than that. That is crazy.

So that, I mean, that is the thing. Look, that's going to happen. So I will clip that, and we will share it in the other shows because folks need to know about that event as well. That sounds like a thing I need to do. So if you don't know what's for dinner, Mary Ellen's food for the soul, let them make you a plate. Charles Phillips, kind, sir. Thank you very much. Love you.

I appreciate you. And I'll probably see you this weekend. All right. Appreciate it, D.P. Have a great weekend. Thank you, brother. who Rico he said wine and smoked

meats I don't know what is happening out there you can't really get any better than that that well what like he posted the video of him cutting into that brisket so nonchalant oh yeah like I just put it on a loop and just watched

this magnificence and then his wife posted a picture of her with the peach cowboys crunch and yeah yes ma'am look they're open at four o'clock today if they're going to be

in the haymark tomorrow I'll probably find them as well so pretty good along the way Rico I came up with another new concept so as you go on vacation your brain reboots

and I want to start a concept that's called ready for this to Kool-Aid or not to Kool-Aid. Okay. Continue. Okay.

Casey Thompson threw for 24 touchdowns and nine interceptions last year. Kool-Aid says that he will have a, he will have better numbers than that. Or not to Kool-Aid. You are going to put me in a weird position. This is what we do. Come on, RICO. text line you guys can join in as well. You guys can join in as well to Kool-Aid or not to Kool-Aid.

Kool-Aid says Casey Thompson, who threw for 24-9 a year ago, Kool-A says, give you the numbers. He's going to have a better year than that. We expect it. Listen, he's going to be better this year than he was. last year. That is the goal. Right. That's, that's the mission. That's the task. That is the space and the lane that we want to get in. Not cool. I said, listen, that's not the kind of luck we've had here at Nebraska when it comes to quarterback play. Can I take a sip? No, you're either. Because

it's 24 and 8 came with a all time freshman wide receiver in Xavier worthy and an all time running back in Bejohn Robinson. I'm not saying that Nebraska doesn't have great receivers or great running backs. Those two are fantastic last year. I'm just, can, can't, can Nebraska have somebody break out like that? Downtown Scott says Kool-A. Definitely can. BK and Pye and Pai says Keg of Kool-A.

Oh, Rico. You know what? Go ahead. Give me, give me a glass. Give me a glass. You got a glass? Give me a glass. It's not a big glass.

It's not a big glass. It's a glass. It's more than a shot. No, there's no sippage. It's more than a shot. Look, it's less. I learned right away that there's a mug. Look, either you chug the Kool-Aid with no top, right, from a pitcher so that it pours all over your face and down your shirt. Or you simply leave it and walk by and go, thanks, but no thanks.

There's no sipping. There's no straw. I like my shirt. I'm not dumping it. I will drink it. There's no straw. I'm pouring it into a cup. There's no cups.

I'm pouring it into a cup. There's no Kool-Aid in a cup. You need a big, huge. Nope. I'm pouring it into a cup. Look, man. Yeah, Chase says he finally could Rico to drink the Kool-Aid. Joe says no Kool-Aid, please, for me, kind, sir.

I'll just take the whiskey to drown another season of sorrow. I always count on Joe. Thank you, Joe. Come on, Rico. I'm drinking it. I'm not chugging it. You have to. As Seattle Joe says gulp, gulp.

You didn't specify how much I had to drink. These are the rules for Kool-Aid. We will spend an entire segment talking about the rules of Kool-Aid. The rules of Husker Kool-Aid. We can do that. We can have the text. 4-2-464-5-6-5. An entire segment.

An entire segment. What are the Kool-Aid rules? Hold on. Do this first. Give the shout out to Allo, the fastest hour of sports radio. This hour on Fridays is the fastest hour in sports radio. Sponsored by Allo. I like my cars, delivery drivers, and internet the same fast.

Chase makes a point that you have to say, oh yeah. And you also have to run through a wall. You have to run through a wall like, hey, Kool-Aid. If those are the rules for drinking the Kool-Aid, I'm not. I guess I'm not drinking the Kool-Aid. You're not going to run through the wall? Not going to run through the wall. You're really not.

Not even for Husker, you. You wouldn't do that. I would. No, I would. Not for Husker Nation. No, I would. But you're talking about in this instance that you laid out, the KC. Thompson 24-9 is going to have better.

I'm not running through the wall. So you're going to walk past the wall and drink no Kool-Aid. No, there's no door. There's no door for Kool-Aid. You can't just tip-toe in, poke your head in the door, peek in the window, look over the wall. None of that. None of that.

Hey Kool-A crashes through the wall with a big old pitcher with ice cubes, click-kid-Klecky, Kink-Kee-Kee-Kee-Kee-Kee-Kee-Kee-E. And Kool-A just pouring all over everything. Then I guess I am not running through a wall and I am not drinking the Kool-A didn't.

And for all of you technically savvy people who, how come there's not a Hey Kool-Kulee character with a big Nebraska end on his chest? Why is red Kool-A doesn't have the end Nebraska in on it. When he was made in hastings. When he breaks through the wall with the red Kool-A,

he should have a Nebraska. He should have the bowled in on his chest. I got a question for you. Yes, sir. In terms of Kool-Aid. Yes. Is the Kool-Aid man the liquid inside or the jar? He is both. Man in his blood.

So is the liquid is his heartbeat? So the liquid is his insides. Yes. Yes. That's what makes him go. Okay. So he is, so he is the jar. He is both the jar and because the, you know, Husker Power is the jar. Okay.

The husker blood, the go big red is the blood. Okay. Right? You, you, you're with me on those. So people are drinking blood. Yeah. Oh. I'm going to clip that.

No, I mean, that makes perfect sense, right? That 90,000. strong together in one blood, in one space, in one idea is what Husker football is about. Now, again, I need for one of you as super talented folks to take Hey, Kool-Aid, put a Nebraska in on him, like dress him up. Dress him up. I mean, I love the smile. I don't think we can.

I think the N is for, you know, Nebraska use only. And then Kool-A-D doesn't own the N? The block end. No, they- Okay, so we use an altered block end. There we go. We can do that. Goopy. That's crazy.

I'm just saying it's a thing. Yeah, I don't. Downtown Scott asked the question. Why is this a tough concept for RICO? Are you the skin or the inside? You're both. But he can change his color. Yeah.

Yep. He could be red. He could be purple. He could be yellow. He could be green. Look, we're not. I'm able to single focus. I'm only focused on red Kool-A dude.

I just had a question about the Kool-A, man. I'm sorry. Look. You know how when you have the weird cousin? Yes. You're the weird cousin. Yes. I am the weird cousin.

No, no, no, no, no. There's a cousin weirder than you. Oh, that weird cousin. That weird cousin who you know you have some of the same features. But inside, they're torn. They're broken. That's purple Kool-Aid. Red Kool-Aid are the only.

Purple Kool-Kul-Aid is not torn or broken. Purple Kool-Aid is the cool uncle. All right? Purple Kool-Aid. is elite. Well, well, that's what we're like to get what we're talking about. Give me some of that purple stuff. To Kool-Aid or not to Kool-Aid.

Casey Thompson, 24 touchdowns, nine interceptions. Is it the 24 touchdowns that bother you or is it the nine interceptions that bother you? Why can't you dive in the Kool-Aid pool? Right. This is a pool. full of rat. You're right. I mean, you're right.

He's going to have a better offensive line than he had at Texas. They were awful. If you watch any clips, they were awful. I don't, I want to dive in. I'm on the edge of the diving board. Joe B says there's going to be a lot of people who are going to have diabetes before the season starts from drinking so much cooler. But that's what I want to want to, that's what I want to know? Like, what are we doing?

Like, what do we do it? Diabetes. What do we do it? What are we doing? What are we doing? Are we in the pool? You know what? You know what?

Dive in the pool, break through the wall. It's either or. I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll dive in the pool. It's from 10 meters, right? Like, we're going to dive in the pool. I'll dive in the pool.

Right? I'll dive in the pool. I can do that. White shirt on? No shirt on. I don't think anybody wants you in the pool. No shirt where you go? Look.

It's my pool. It's everybody. It's my pool. If it's your pool and my pool. I'm not drinking Kool-Aid if there's other people in the pool. I don't know where all you be. I don't know where you people have been. You don't know where these Huskers have been.

They've been on farms or the outreach. We have no idea. I guess it's good that Joe's not diving in the pool. You know, him working, you know, all that stuff. He's got dirty hands. Okay, so what is the red? Is it cherry fruit punch? It's red.

Just red. It's red. All red is red. Doesn't matter. It's red. Does it have a flavor that is genuinely attached to the color red? can it be either cherry or fruit punch it can be whatever red you want it to be what does it say on the label can you google on the label they're both red one says cherry one says fruit punch it's just whichever it's just red cherry punch it's cherry punch so we can go in the middle okay sure okay all right so you're in the pool yeah sure case of thompson 24 and nine i'm in the pool okay to coolade or not to coolade rico drive me crazy this is I know that's the sole purpose of this.

And it's six and six. I had to explain myself yesterday again. I know. I know. You cannot sit on six and six. You have to choose. I'm not choosing a side of the fence. I'm not choosing a side of the fence.

To Kool-Aid or not to Kool-Aid. Kool-Aid is seven and five. Not to Kool-Aid is five and seven. Oh, no. RICO. My mic. It fell. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Why do I have to choose a side? To Kool-Aid or not. And we need, we now need Mark to do or Big Voice Bob to do Kool-Aid or not to Kool-Aid. Come on, Rico. You can't sit on the fence. Cool-Aid sponsorship.

There's me. That really needs to happen. I'm pretty sure it was created in hastings. No, no. You know what we need? We need, this is a Dan Swanson canopy street market kind of deal. It's a lot of cool. Don't they carry Kool-A?

I'm sure they did. Dan text me and let me know if you guys carry red cherry or punch Kool-Aid. Oh, ham and beans went up. Ah, I like it. Ham and beans from 7 and 5 to 9 and 4. Like it? I can't sit on 6 and 6. I have to choose.

No Kool-Late is. I already told you. I don't go down. I'm working my way up slowly. I'm not at the point for seven yet. You can't ask me yet. I've asked the question. I'm allowed in this space to ask me next to you.

I need to hear more J. Foreman. Jay Foreman convincing me even though he doesn't think he's convincing me. I'm just saying, bro. Yes, sir? Come on. Coolade or not to cool. I'll give them seven. There.

Diving in the pool? Not diving. I'm diving. You have to dive in the pool. I'm sliding in the side. Run through the wall or dive to the pool. If I go to nine, that's a dive. I'm at seven.

I'm sliding in the side. I'm just hopping off the, I'm climbing on the ladder. Run through the wall. Hey, Kool-Aid. A run through the wall is nine wins. I'm not running through the wall. I'm climbing down the ladder. I'm in the pool, but I'm climbing down the ladder.
