Starting point is 00:00:00 It's time to go one-on-one with D.P. Coming at you live from the couple 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 Ticketfm.com. Oh, that music can only mean one thing. Well, it can mean two things. It can mean two things. It can mean three things.
Starting point is 00:00:32 It can mean three things. That music, that is the cult of personality. Living color. Baddest black rock band in history. Bad. Them to do. Great guitar player. Or it could mean that Z.M. Punk was making his way to the ring.
Starting point is 00:00:54 It certainly could mean that Siam Punk was making his way to the ring. And then, of course, it means that we're going one on one on the ticket. Man. the best of the three it's the most relevant currently listen if you haven't gone and listened to
Starting point is 00:01:13 that album by a living color you are missing out fantastic fantastic work and then if you haven't been in an arena where CM Punk's music
Starting point is 00:01:26 came on and you heard 20,000 grown-ups lose their ever-loving mind it is it is one of the great human studies. Going to a WWE live event, especially when it's on TV.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Right. Is one of the great personality profiles that you could, like just watch human studies and watch an attorney next to a construction worker next to a gay person next to brown, next to pink, next to tall, next to short.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Somebody, everybody's there and they're coexisting in a space. My goodness. And nobody leaves tired. Like you spend that three hours and your gas tank is like, oh, I'm cool. I'm cool. I'm cool. Like, I'm good.
Starting point is 00:02:22 Like, anybody fighting in the parking lot? Ain't no, no. Ain't none of that. It's just there. On a Wednesday, and again, you can be a part of what we're talking about. 424-6-4-5-6-85, Sartarheimate's line. the streams are available to you. Jump on. I know brick and mortar folks
Starting point is 00:02:38 will be in and out, but y'all know how to find this, and this one's worth doing, because one, my guest tonight is an impressive young man, and I identified this years ago, and there were a couple
Starting point is 00:02:54 things in play. It was a weird thing. So, where I played my college baseball, you know, one of the pictures that they talk about. One of the pitches that they talk about. I actually brought in the jersey. I was like, let me bring in this jersey and let this young man know that, you know, I got the same jersey your daddy guy. Man, that's right. I know that's right. I know that's right. He was eight years after me. Okay. Um, in a different time. Because boom, yeah,
Starting point is 00:03:23 Richmond was different. Richmond was different when he got there. I was there when the Confederates were still loud. Really? And me and Charlie Scott were like, two brothers, you're just holding on. My goodness. Just holding on. But Chancellor Brewington, former Husker tight-in,
Starting point is 00:03:43 and now radio host and about to be, about to be a full-time ticket employee. How about that? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. How to get it started. Yeah, like this is having a utility player who play receiver can play tight-in.
Starting point is 00:03:58 You can put it to H-back. You can run it down. Special teams, right? Send him out to win the coin toss. Come on, come on. Come on. Where you need me. Where you need me.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Put him to work, put him to business. First of all, for the folks that don't know, you went through the Hot Ones challenge last night. I need for you to break this down. First of all, why did you decide? Why would you allow Megan to talk you into this? Well, I thought just hearing it, and I've been a fan of the show, the Hot One show, So I've seen, I mean, my favorite episodes was the Kevin Hart, Key and Peel, Shaq had a great one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:37 So I've seen the episodes and I just thought it would be kind of like a badge of honor. Oh, it is. Right, right? Just a badge of honor just to say, oh, you've seen hot ones? I went through that and I'd done it. I did all 10, 10 of them. Did all 10? Clean the bone?
Starting point is 00:04:53 Clean most of them. Right? I did about 8 out 10. So did you, you're going to, I'm going to ask you to go back and watch the film. Oh, boy. Because I think, I think old Nick was, was, was, was, was cheating. He was cheating. Cheat.
Starting point is 00:05:07 And he was talking good too. Oh, oh, man. Like, go back and watch the film. I'm like, bro, you, wait a minute, did you just, oh, you didn't really go in, bro. I was A, I wanted the full experience. The first, so I went through one of the first time, and again, it was a ticket four years ago. And the first time I went through it, I originally said, there's zero chance I'm doing this. Like, no.
Starting point is 00:05:30 I'm not doing this. Like, no. And then peer pressure, peer pressure. Right. Because it was my host then Tom Stevens. And Tom's not a bulky man. Right. And then it's him and Bach and Rico.
Starting point is 00:05:47 And they convince Rico to do it. And so I'm like, okay, okay. I said, then the manhood. Right, right, right. Like the manhood. Come on, come on. Like, I can't let, that's like going through the gauntlet at practice, and the punter gets in line in front of you.
Starting point is 00:06:07 Yeah, yeah. Right. And that's disrespectful. You know, like, you know, listen, you all go. I got to go. I got to go, man. I got to go, right? Y'all can't do nothing better than me.
Starting point is 00:06:21 Right? But I'm like, you know what? I'll do the first five. Right. Just to show you I'm a fair sport, right? And I'm one, two, three, four. And I'm like, I'm already in it now. Like, I'm in the, I'm in the cold tub.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Yeah, yeah. I'm in the cold tub. What you do? What you're going to do to me? Up to the neck. You're going to pull more ice on me? Like, I'm in. Come on.
Starting point is 00:06:43 I'm in. I'm in. So we get, we get the five and they start reacting. And I'm like, oh, wait a minute. I'm actually good at this. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
Starting point is 00:06:55 I, wait, that's the talent. Wait a minute, EP? That's some superhero stuff going on. I didn't know, Chancellor? I didn't know, man. I didn't know. You didn't know you had it? I didn't know.
Starting point is 00:07:05 Look, man, this is the first time you get the lead block. You get the lead chip. Oh, yeah. And you really get to unload on somebody. Oh, yeah. And they, boom, they collapse. And you go, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:16 That's how I have that. Oh, boy. I'm that dude. I'm that dude. I'm the hammer, not the nail. Oh, yeah. All the time. All the time.
Starting point is 00:07:25 Until you get to seven and eight. Oh, boy. All the confidence stripped away. This was, look, man, I need a chip, but it's Hutchinson. I need a chip, but it's Nidaman's Sue. Right, and he see me coming. Yeah, he knows. He know we're running trap.
Starting point is 00:07:45 Come on over here, Chancellor. Oh, yeah. That's one of the ones where, like, you try to go for, like, the, you try to cut him, and you just kind of just die and just kind of roll at his seat. feet. And then you get up and you go, we good? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:59 I made him move enough, right? He didn't make the play, right? Right? Like, I got in the way. Business decision. I need for him to know, to respect me, but listen.
Starting point is 00:08:09 Right. I was looking out for you. Oh yeah. Oh, yeah. Like, I ain't chipped, like I ain't go to the knee. Yeah, I ain't no punk now. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Like, you know, I just, you know, I know, I know myself. You know, that's what it is. I know, I know. Because I'm probably going to see you again. that wanted to be on friendly terms. Exactly. I'm going to get you when you're not looking.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Right. So walk me through the first set. So the one through five. Yeah, one through five. First one, I'll say the first three, I thought the taste of the wings was actually very good. I thought they were very tasteful. And then, you know, we start climbing after three.
Starting point is 00:08:48 I thought of smooth sailing. And then the numbers start jumping up. So you start off at like 1700. hundred and then you know by by wing four you're already almost at a hundred thousand you got like 50 to 60 thousand so and then it all of a sudden just jump up to a million and then now but but the first five the first five were tasted good but i would say i wing five things started heat up and now you now you you didn't want to put your lips together and then you kind of you kind of were aware some things going on in you in upstairs and your head and then i mean yeah your sinuses and
Starting point is 00:09:24 at six just say, hey, chance. Let me talk to you right quick. Let me talk to you. I got something to say. And we need to remove some people. Oh, yeah. From the process, right? That at five and six, all of the seasoning,
Starting point is 00:09:41 it becomes the perfect blend of chaos. I like that. Right? Like, you have, like, they're a nuisance. It's, so you get the one, you get the one nephew. Uh-huh. Right. The first one's your nephew.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Right, right. He, okay. Yeah. Like, I expect some nonsense. Right. But okay. Then he go invite his other brother. Yeah, Ray Ray.
Starting point is 00:10:06 Right? Yeah. But then Ray Ray brought somebody. Pookie. Pookie showed up, right? And Pookie, come from a family. He got brother Tyrone. And Tyrone had a bad morning.
Starting point is 00:10:19 My goodness. And you could handle all of them one of the the time, you could handle 10 of your nephews. You could not handle 10 Tyrone. Mm-mm. And Pook and Ray, right. Right. And then they brought Malik.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Oh, my goodness. And Malik ain't been out the house in two months for a reason. Yeah, yeah. My brother on parole. Right. He like Babebi's kids. He just showed up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:52 He out yelled. He got a fist to the sky. guy, he said, you know, I'm here for all the chaos. I gave for all the... Like, what's up, Chancellor? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Just going crazy. Can't take him nowhere.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Right? And then, and then... Eight is Dibo. Eight brought everybody. Eight brought a whole Johnson's family cookout reunion. Right, and they just said, get him. Mm-hmm. And they brought them to your thousand square foot
Starting point is 00:11:23 house they all up in there they all up in every corner grandma gertude everybody big mom everybody man and you were really having a conversation with yourself oh yeah i was in the corner saying my car's right out there i could i could go right now i'm sure these three other lovely people could take over the show for me they could leave i could leave and fully vouched like the beautiful thing was everybody who goes through it has this this thing of how it's going to go in their head Harrison went through it the first time and Harrison kind of got talked into it the same why I did it was kind of peer pressure right yeah because he was just he was just like matter of fact Harrison was an intern at the time I think right yeah it wasn't even getting paid
Starting point is 00:12:12 for that right like he wasn't even getting paid for it and Harrison okay so you see the color of his face right now right right right. It was the color of the wall. Oh, man, he was tomato sauce. He was the real scarlet and cream man. Oh, my goodness. And he was looking at for help. Like, he was looking for somebody to rescue him.
Starting point is 00:12:39 They never need another producer. Like, I couldn't. I couldn't keep up with the brakes. I had to be on time and I was breaking down. No. I know how that is. Oh, my gosh. That is funny.
Starting point is 00:12:51 but needed help so here's the other thing so at one moment I look over and Chancellor is literally in the corner like he is in the corner corner just having a an out loud private conversation
Starting point is 00:13:08 with himself about what is happy where am I what am I going through? Yeah location was a big thing location was a big thing I need a location
Starting point is 00:13:21 I need verification on why I was doing this. And then, because Megan, because this was what I was really processing was, the conversation me and Megan had with Nick and Rico. And they was basically saying, they was going back and forth. They was like, it was going, it's going to be, it's going to be super difficult. But then they're like, oh, no, it's not going to be that bad. But the tone and when they were saying it was going to be super difficult and it was the hardest thing and you can't prepare for it, I was believing that tone more than, than,
Starting point is 00:13:51 that and then there's a moment me and me and Megan was outside after Wing 8 I know if y'all caught that no no no no I caught that and if you was on O Street last night you probably seen me had a meltdown out there but me and Megan said we could just go home we could keep it moving the host of the show
Starting point is 00:14:09 we could just go home keep it moving leave our people there yeah uh Harris don't take care of yeah we could go home I know this is kind of like our show but we could go home right now we could leave we could bounce But we stuck it through. That is so, listen. To fully understand.
Starting point is 00:14:28 And watching people, and I told you before, I said, you're going to have conversations with yourself that you've never had before. Because chemically, a thing is happening to you
Starting point is 00:14:40 that your body, there's zero chance for your body have gone through what it went through last night. Like there's no, you can take all the two-of-day practices. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:51 Yeah, yeah. You could take whatever medicine somebody gave you. You can do all those things. Yeah. None of that prepares you for what you went through. Yeah. There was no emotional pattern linked to hot wings in my previous, previous 24 years of existence. You know, and it's so funny.
Starting point is 00:15:09 Your mom, my mom was on social media, just wearing you out. Oh, yeah. I'm sure she was. She was wearing you out. They had a great time watching me go through that. Oh, but see. But here's what happens next. When you become a veteran of this thing.
Starting point is 00:15:27 I'm a vet now. You are literally a predator now. You immediately, you came, people came to mind that you, oh, you know who I got to put through this. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Right? Like, you know, okay. Like, I went through my family first.
Starting point is 00:15:48 And then I went, no. I need my boys. Yeah, yeah. Like, I need my friends to go through this. And immediately I thought, Buddha. Oh, yeah, he was talking.
Starting point is 00:16:03 Right? Right. He was talking. He said they don't know me out here. I'm the one in Lincoln that, I'm the hottest man in Lincoln. I can handle the hottest, the hottest wings. I said, okay.
Starting point is 00:16:15 Okay. Mr. Brett going to be back. He's going to be back. Harrison, did you find the Brett Baker song? Did you find that? I couldn't find, like, just the small version. I'll find it on the break. I'll find it on the break.
Starting point is 00:16:30 But it was so much so that Russell Brand's like, listen, Brett Baker is iconic in this hot one's world. And so much so that he made up the song about dude. Like, he made a song about him. And Brett, Brett is so gifted at, he kept y'all going. Like, he knows how important it is to keep you engaged. because if you didn't have to reprocess your brain to answer a question yeah that is true you just lock into the pain yeah he's eating the wing with you too
Starting point is 00:16:58 yeah you got to change your pattern to thinking my goodness because yeah and even answering the questions I didn't realize how hard it was I have a new found respect for the people who have been through hot ones and have actually articulated a well thought out sentence and spoke it out and it changes the way you watch the episode now yeah like you're going to go back Like every new episode now, I'm like, watch this, watch it, watch. Yeah. Where's the bomb? Where's the bomb? Where's the bomb? Where's level eight? The dab, like, don't dab, man. Don't double dab.
Starting point is 00:17:30 Yeah. Don't, y'all double dab. I don't understand that, Chancellor. And then I get, I always, I was like, man, why are they not dabbing? I get it now. Because if y'all, if Megan would have sat here and said, I'm not dabbing, and then we would not pass that bottle through, I would have been okay with it. I would have been okay with it. So from the from your friends on the football team.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Yeah. Who are here in town. In town. What's what's the dream team of four that we need to get in here? Four. I'm trying to think. Okay. I just. Isaiah.
Starting point is 00:18:06 Yep. I G.C. Yep. I would love to see him do it. I would love see Ty do it. Oh. Ty Rob would be a good one. Oh, he would destroy.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Well, we thought the big. except for Brandt and Nouri, it didn't quit. No, it beat them. It beat them up. Right. I want to see, of course, Buddha, Javan, right? I want to see, I want to see him. Mackay, Macai, Macai Gabor, he was on the story last night.
Starting point is 00:18:32 Yeah. He was putting some laugh emoji. So I'm like, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you got come back on. Yeah, yeah. You see how he kept track of it? He got receipts now. Oh, yeah, I got receipts. I kept my life, yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:44 And then was my fifth one. I probably go I wish Chubba was still here I would definitely go Chubba Yeah Who's a who's a young cat P Will
Starting point is 00:18:59 Prince Oh Prince Will Yeah big boy Yeah I would like to see that You put the pup in there In no way he's gonna be able to do it I don't lie
Starting point is 00:19:10 Here's what I Here's what I hope happens Because So if you took four or five of them Yeah And we just said to people Hey, listen, we're going to do the Wings Challenge, and if they can,
Starting point is 00:19:22 how many they can go through, if they do them all, where you just donate a dollar per wing. Okay, yeah. And as many donors as they can get, it goes into the NIL pool for that athlete. Oh, I like that. Right?
Starting point is 00:19:35 But then we put them, and, of course, mom, dad's, uncles, local businesses can be a part of it. But the other side of it is, y'all would have to pick a team to compete against. Okay, so like the baseball. team. Yeah, baseball, basketball. Do you think? Gotta pick someone out of season, though.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Because that might, that might mess up our run. Oh, yeah. No, we're not trying to do that. Yeah. That's a three-day span of, yeah. It really is. It really is. How did you feel this morning? Oh, yeah. It was feeling. It was feeling. It's tough. Yeah, yeah. It's tough. And the sleep changes because you're never quite comfortable. Right.
Starting point is 00:20:17 You're never, you're like, that colon, that colon on the left side. Right. Like, kind of got to sleep right at an angle. And what I remember, what I remember was, I know, I know I jumped up in the middle of the night because I thought like one cramp, one cramp hit, and I thought it's too late. And I wouldn't know of full spread. So in the dark. Right.
Starting point is 00:20:45 Because, you know, my wife sleeps, so I'm trying not to wake her up. Full sprint in the dark. And the only thing that saved me was that I slipped on the carpet and it slowed me down. Because otherwise I didn't ran straight into the wall. Got that their heart rate up. Listen, I'd have ran straight to the wall and then it would have been too accident. Right, right, right, right. My head to the wall and everything else.
Starting point is 00:21:09 Like, it was going to be a thing. All right, so I would chance for bridge. We're going to take a break. We'll come back. I want to talk to him about his family and go into some detail because we stand on the shoulders of people who love us and the accumulation of people who care about us in full. I want to talk to that about those things with Chancellor Brewington
Starting point is 00:21:29 here on one-on-one. You're listening to One-on-One-on-One with DP, sponsored by Mary Ellen's Food for the Soul on 93-7 The Ticket and the Ticketfm.com. Welcome back to One-on-One. on a Wednesday. Again, we appreciate you. 4024-64-64.
Starting point is 00:21:50 5-6-85 if you want to text in. Chancellor Brewington is our guest. And I, listen, through all of what you have to go through as a student athlete, and no matter northern Arizona and Nebraska, whatever it is, you have to have a network of people who ride for you in full. Yeah. And I think it's fascinating because social media kind of allows you to connect and kind of meet people. And I'm a fan of your moms because your mother has one of the best, and correct me if I'm wrong,
Starting point is 00:22:28 but she has one of the best human spirits. Right? Like, I'm not wrong in that. No, you're 100% correct. Yeah, for sure. For sure. So tell the folks about your mom because she's in every facet. We ran together when it was, we were out of the Colorado game.
Starting point is 00:22:45 And you just went, yep, good people right here. Yeah. Yeah, she's like the, you get older and I'm sure you hit this stage where you kind of learn like different traits that you got from your mom, different traits you got from your dad. And one thing I got from my mom, yeah, she's this awesome, you know, gentle, awesome individual, but that she has this obsessive nature to her. her that she loves to research she loves to do these things and like i've i've learned that like i've gotten that trait from her um my dad has that the hard work ethic of course but there's like just a certain there's just a certain drive that she has and i realize i got it from her but she's awesome she's a she's a cancer survivor um that's that's one of the the big parts of her story um and uh yeah
Starting point is 00:23:35 i want to get her on one day to share that um but yeah she's you have your own show bro i car I know. I know. I know. I got to get her on. I got to get her on. But yeah, she's, she's amazing. She really is. One of the most knowledgeable woman. I've, I know if there's anything about health, she knows it. Or she knows how to find out. And she'll find out by the end of the day and give you a whole summary of what it is and why it's important. But yeah, she's, she's beyond awesome. You have this thing that your family is expanding. Yeah, oh my goodness, yeah. Tell the story because Husker Nation needs to hear this story. Yeah, so my brother-in-law, for folks that don't know, is Ben Steeley. He played here from 2016 to 2021. He's with the Cardinals right now, bounce from the Dolphins to Browns.
Starting point is 00:24:30 Now he's with the Cardinals. But, yeah, they are having a baby here soon, baby Luca. do could be in the next two to three weeks so it's a it's a big time for our family you know our family is growing and you know
Starting point is 00:24:48 it's going to be it's going to be experienced I'm going to be an uncle my mom's going to be a grandma and you know sister is going to be an aunt so it's going to be awesome and just to have an addition to the family so walk me through the moment you find out that been silly is your teammate is dating your sister
Starting point is 00:25:06 you. Oh my goodness. Oh, my goodness. It was a surprise because I'm like, how did y'all, whatever, but I realize, you know your siblings and you realize down the road that, okay, like, she really likes him. Oh, okay. Well, Ben's a good dude. Okay. And then things start to, start to click and make sense. But you know your family. Then you can tell when there's just a different attachment that they have to people when when when it's some serious when it's something that that isn't just a short-term thing you can you can tell so it's awesome because in this world there's a bunch of not so good men you know and to know your sister is is being guided and led by by a good dude a good man a trustworthy man man of character so
Starting point is 00:25:58 yeah that's that's very important well congratulations in advance Uncle Chance? Yeah, yeah. A good chance? Yeah, yeah, we're going to make it happen. Here's the other thing that with a major league pitcher as a dad, multi-sport athlete as well, right? Did you have any curiosity towards throwing a baseball
Starting point is 00:26:21 and being in that baseball world? Yeah, I mean, that was, I mean, growing up, that's all I thought I was going to do. Football wasn't really in the picture until about sophomore, you or junior in high school. So up until high school, really sophomore year, baseball was all I thought about, all I dreamed about. I was getting drafted out of high school. I'm going to play a few years, and I'm going to try to, you know, my dad got to the pros,
Starting point is 00:26:47 got to the show, I think, 23, 24, so right where I am right now. So I'm like, I'm going to beat them there, you know, just that type of mentality. But to be honest, being the only black kid on baseball teams in Arizona, and Arizona, I mean, I went to the best, you know, baseball school in Arizona, you know, prime time, whatever, but it just took a toll on me and just being misunderstood out there, not really having a great support system. And then you look out and all your friends up on the football team and they all having fun, you know, everyone look the same, you know, you get to really be yourself out there. You get to talk a little bit, da-da-da, get physical.
Starting point is 00:27:30 cool and so that's kind of where I ventured off and started playing football. But up until then, it was baseball all the way. So what positions did you play? Did you pitch? What did you play? Yeah, so I played short, third. Obviously, could play outfield. If you could play short, you can play any position on the field. But I always, I always was a pitcher. Like, if I would have got drafted, I feel like they would have been for pitching or for outfield. But, yeah, being on the bump just felt right. It just felt right. Just the aspect of pitching is so, it's a lot like football in a lot of ways. It's one-on-one. It's super competitive. You control the game. You have the game in your hand. That's what my dad used to say. You got the game in your hand. So from pitch one, you can control it.
Starting point is 00:28:18 Obviously, things get a little bit different when someone get on base. But yeah, no, that was where my love was was pitching and yeah that I mean just being with my dad for so long he he was a he was a trainer so he would he would train a lot of pro guys so by the time I get to high school I could teach a whole lesson by myself so you had you know pitching coaches come up try to teach me I'm like dude I already I already I already know what you're about to say and then when you say something wrong I know you wrong I'll come I'll come straight home dad he's talking about I need to My fingers two inches off the scene, da-da-da-da. He's like, you know what to do.
Starting point is 00:28:59 You know what to do? Is there any part of you that wants to go coach? I would say I definitely have a coach in spirit to me. Like I love to, I just have like that leadership. I like that. Because there are Lincoln programs that could use Chancellor Brewington, baseball football. Right, no, yeah, I would love to coach baseball.
Starting point is 00:29:19 That's what I would love to do that. but yeah I don't know about right now maybe down the road but no I would definitely because my granddad was a coach he coached high school football and basketball so
Starting point is 00:29:35 yeah that's definitely in the DNA but yeah I would definitely get my options open to that so what we often what we do here at the ticket especially in salt dogs baseball season is we partner with the Lincoln Salt Dogs
Starting point is 00:29:50 and once a month on Friday afternoon. So when the salt dogs are home, they allow us to come down and take batting practice with the salt dogs. Yeah. Oh, my goodness. Yeah. Chancellor Brewington. I haven't took BP in a minute.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Look, look. It's swing there, though. Look. So I'm thinking that in, so June, I want to say it's June 21st. Okay. On a Friday. Yeah. We broadcast from Dennis, so we get up in the suite.
Starting point is 00:30:24 Yeah. And we broadcast from the suite. And some of us, some of the folks, like, I'm not allowed to swing anymore. Right. Just I got too much metal and too many body parts that I'd be divorced if I'd gotten a cage again. I snuck in the cage in the cage three years ago. And the conversation that was waiting for me at home. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Oh, so do I need to pull out the video of your bicep being repaired? You know, do I need to show you your spine, young man? And the real thing is I don't have a meniscus anymore, so I don't have that back pivot. But I think you hosting the first one, strict minor league baseball player. Yeah. So strict, strict can still rate. Yeah. Steve Taylor was drafted by the Yankees, shortstop.
Starting point is 00:31:16 can still go. Steve Taylor, both of them are left-handers. Go figure. Both of them are left-handers. We went down there and they put him work. Nick was a high school catcher. He was a defense-first catcher fairly. I'd like to say it.
Starting point is 00:31:33 So he can hit line drives me. I think we'll have you invite listeners down on your show to come take batting practice. That would be great. With the salt dog. So we take it with the team. Oh, boy. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:48 And then you can go Shag, you can go take some ground balls. I would love to take some ground balls. Oh, absolutely. Give me, let me, let me get my glove in that short. Yeah, no, this is, this is, this is. So it would be you and Steve Taylor. Because Steve Taylor, you know, that, that, he got out. And look, all American QB for nothing, that dude still can throw.
Starting point is 00:32:06 Yeah. Like, he, he can pick it short. And I was like, okay, Steve. Yeah. So there'll be a chance for you to kind of reborn yourself into the baseball side of it. Oh, I would love it. Yeah, it's a step on the dime. Right?
Starting point is 00:32:18 It's a pretty good. It might even let you get on the bomb. Oh, oh, boy. Oh, boy. What? I still got a laborer. What? We can figure it out, though.
Starting point is 00:32:30 No, no, no, no. We're not trying to get you hurt, man. I don't know. I don't need your family coming to get me talking about this dude. Just do it out he's throwing. He shouldn't be pitching. Like, I didn't know about the labor of him tear. Let the folks know.
Starting point is 00:32:42 I mean, your father as an athlete, how would you describe your, your father, what he's shared with you. Yeah. About him as an athlete and as a coach. Yeah, a lot of things. One of the main things he shared with me is what went right and what went wrong. And I think that's not even just with sports, but just with life. And I think that's something where I'm at right now is I love the victory stories.
Starting point is 00:33:10 Like I love hearing people's successes, but I'm really enjoying. right now with why people didn't why people failed or or or not so much failed but um came up short or or you know caught caught a defeat along the way i'm intrigued with those stories on and why it didn't happen or what was in my big thing right now is where was your mindset at during those times could you fix something stuff like that so those are the conversations we're having now that i'm older is more so like okay like when i was your age i didn't really i wasn't dealing with the you're dealing with, but I did have this along the way. Maybe you could learn from it.
Starting point is 00:33:50 So I'm in this stage. I just want to learn from everyone and anyone I could learn from the garbage man. I could learn from the CEO, probably more lessons from the garbage man. You know what I'm saying? Well, I mean, I think that's a big part of it. And I always say that I gauge a person's intelligence. They're real intelligence level by their curiosity. And what you receive from lessons.
Starting point is 00:34:13 Like I learned early that the things that I didn't get to do were really directional And how I dealt with them Was gonna dictate how my life was gonna go Did I let them did I let them beat me? Or did I learn from it and use it to project forward and up? And when you made the decision you say you know what? I think I'm gonna focus a little bit on this radio thing And I said that is a great redirect
Starting point is 00:34:41 Because not a lot of athletes, Not a lot of people are able to pivot from a moment that isn't ideal for them. Yeah. Into a positive and forward direction. Yeah. I think it's, I think one, a book I'm reading right now. And this is one thing that is awesome about what you just said is redirecting. It's also redirecting energy and time.
Starting point is 00:35:05 And that's one thing I was like, I have a decision to make because I'm not in meetings right now. I'm not getting, you know, chastised by a coach, you know, getting constructive. constructive criticism, worrying about MAs, weren't about assignment error, stuff like that. I have a lot of time to put it into self-discovery, finding myself, learning about myself, learning about the world, learning about principles and stuff like that. So, yeah, I forget why I was going with that. But yeah, right now is awesome. But there's a book I'm reading.
Starting point is 00:35:34 It's all about how you interpret basically what's going on around you. And it starts with, there's a chapter that it talks about, questions. The questions you ask in life matter a lot and that the questions can spark ideas that change generations. So, yeah. Through all of what. And Harrison's been around me enough and been in enough interviews where he understands
Starting point is 00:36:01 that those questions and those lessons are really why we're here. Sports is just a vehicle for conversations, real conversations to help people figure out. Maybe that we spark a thing in somebody that's listening. Maybe we give some confidence to somebody. Maybe we spark a curiosity about, well, maybe, you know, Chancellor figured out. Maybe I can. Oh, yeah. That's, yeah, that's the goal.
Starting point is 00:36:23 Right. That's the goal. Right. To do that. And I think a lot of that comes from a better understanding of your space and your heart and your spirit. When we come back, I want to talk about your faith. because it is a space that people don't go into because they're not comfortable in it.
Starting point is 00:36:45 Right. We're about to get uncomfortable. Let's do it. So we're going to get into that conversation with Chancellor Brewington here on one-on-one. You're listening to One-on-One-One with DP, sponsored by Mary Ellen's Food for the Soul on 937 The Ticket and the Ticketfm.com.
Starting point is 00:37:09 Welcome back. Final segment of one-on-one DPE after this. We got some full night. for you, right? Oh, yeah. We've got a good guest. You'll be streaming in as well, but we've got the morning
Starting point is 00:37:18 Piercenell live and then the great Nebraska running back, Amir Abdullah, being joining us as well on the stream. So be sure to stay plugged in for that one from seven to eight. Yeah, that's a good one. That's a good one with Chancellor Brewington.
Starting point is 00:37:30 And we've shared several private conversations about your faith and how important it is. But you, me explaining your faith is, is disrespectful. please explain your faith. Yeah. To folks that don't understand what it is, why it's so important,
Starting point is 00:37:52 and what strength it provides. Yeah, this is, oh, my goodness. I love to talk about sports, but this is what I love to talk about, seriously, because it's something that I've found for myself. And that's one thing that I've learned is that, you know, my mom and my dad can push me in whatever direction. But the way life go, man, there's certain situations you get pushed.
Starting point is 00:38:14 in where your creator gets your attention. And you can call them whatever you want. And one thing I'm learning is that my perspective on the book we read, the Bible has changed. And what I mean by that is I don't even view it as a religious book anymore. I don't, when I read Genesis the first two chapters, I read the original intent for what God wanted and what he wanted he wanted relationship he wanted um a family a royal family he says he gave us dominion and if you i'm a nerd though i'm a nerd if you if you if you look up the word dominion in hebrew it translates to kingdom and when jesus came to earth um that was the message
Starting point is 00:39:09 he preached the first thing he preached was repent for the kingdom of god is here and that word repent means change the way you think. Right? Change the way you think. Well, but that's that knowledge that we were just talking about. Exactly, exactly. So that's why he came.
Starting point is 00:39:23 He came to change the way we thought about the world system and replace it with the way the kingdom operates. And that's why I'm learning right now is the principles of the kingdom of giving, of serving, of loving, of management,
Starting point is 00:39:36 of a plethora of things, that this universe, that when everyone talks about, the universe will give you this. The universe will give this. well the the the principles that the universe run on are are full are real and and they're they're in full operation right now and some people are operating in those principles and don't even know it and that person is successful but they but they give but they search but yeah exactly like your
Starting point is 00:40:01 knowledge of the things around you yeah and the things in you yeah is what is what empowers you yeah for sure for sure and during this time i've i've got to i've got to i've got to So understand myself and understand myself. I understand my creator more. Now, in this space that is college athletics, there is a large number of Husker student athletes who walk as you do and are looking for a place to gather in number and to have these conversations because your understanding of it
Starting point is 00:40:32 is different than the person next to you, different than the person next to them. But you want to get together and have conversations. Right. About those things. How important is that and how productive? would it be to change your experience for a positive in a positive way? Yeah, I think it would be awesome because, I mean, you look at interviews, you know,
Starting point is 00:40:52 you know, the first thing is like, you know, glory to God and whatever, but what if you could expand that sentence and expand all of it and let them have a whole hour to explain what that really means to them? Say who they are and what they believe. Exactly. Exactly. And have it be a judgment-free zone where people are just explaining their faith and what their God has done for them, their personal relationship, their personal experience,
Starting point is 00:41:14 and ultimately it will just add new perspectives to a whole melting pot of a big faith conversation. Well, and an understanding of the young people who play the sports that they cheer for. Yeah, yeah, yeah. To know why, yeah, to know why Chancellor is who he is. Yeah. And what he wants to achieve.
Starting point is 00:41:35 And then it helps you draw more. That magnet of life is that you will draw to you. you. People of like spirit and like love. Exactly. And those people are looking for you. Exactly. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:41:49 So as we move forward, and I just want to explain it, that another mission of mine would be is to give those student athletes a place and a space to have those conversations about what they love, who they love, and why. Yeah. And I think you're the great ambassador for it. I think you're... I love that word choice. ambassador.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Well, you know, listen. I love it. Look, the real word is minister, right? To lead and guide in the right direction through love. That's all this is. All it is. That's all it is. So listen, be proud of yourself once again for what you do and who you are,
Starting point is 00:42:30 kind sir. Thank you for giving me an hour and giving listeners a little bit of peace of who Chancellor Brewington. Of course. I appreciate you have me on. There it is. Don't go anywhere. D.P.E.
Starting point is 00:42:39 He's in the building. We've got a pretty good show tonight, so don't go anywhere. Ticket weeknights. Stay hot.
