You're listening to One-on-One with DP, brought to by Canopy Street Market on 93-7 The Ticket and the Ticketfm.com. Final segment, one-on-one. Again, thank the folks that make this happen. Jacob, Backelwood, Esquire, sir. Let him know. Let him know. Well, it's a good day outside for golf. It's been a little bit hot, cooled down the last couple of days.

You have the best place in town to hit up after your round of golf with your guys is liquid assets sports bar and grill. 23 beers on tap is a specific bar for high-end bourbon and spirits. 30 TV show and MLB, NFL training camp updates, PGA golf, and more. Enjoy the delicious wings or handheld sandwiches like the turkey melt, liquid gold hamburger or the bowl market barbecue burger and more. Enjoy the brand new chocolate chip cookie skillet as well. Liquid asset sports bar and grill at 2755. Jamie Lane, just north of 27th in Yankee Hill in Lincoln. We appreciate it.

And it is a really good burger. Is it? It's a really good. I love a good burger. Is it? I don't know what happened to me. I don't know what scar, internal scar, but simple food is my jam now. And I don't want anything.

Give me a burger. Give me wings. Pizza. We've been on a wing thing lately. I've got on some wings. Well, Bach. Big steak guy. Bach and Farley can tell you the best wings in the state because they, he just judged.

He was the judge for the wings company. Yeah, wing fest. Yeah. Okay. So Bach, what would you recommend to the Smith family for wing consent? I'm trying to think who they, who won there. Cheryl might remember Ben and Jay. Eminj.

Eminj. And they were second in the, uh, in the, in the polling for us. So yeah, I mean, that's, that's an excellent choice. And that's a food truck. Yeah. Really. And they do. Where's this food truck at?

Uh, Farley can tell it. I think they got moved down to the university. They've done so well that I think somebody, but there's two things that they do. First of all, they make, so I'm not a big pickle guy, but they make this Kool-Aid

and then they marinate the pickles and the Kool-Aid. And you eat the pickles. Pickles and Kool-Lade. Brough. Oh, the Kool-Aid wings, they're fantastic. But they make their own sauce. Yeah. And they make their wing sauce with the grape Kool-Aid.

Every time I've been here, I leave hungry. This is why I weigh what I weigh. I try. Like, I try to behave, but then they will bring in, like, again today. Like, think about it. It's just food. I have three birthday cakes in the refrigerator that I cannot. If there's anything left, I'm giving it to you and let you take it with you.

Because I just, if I eat cake all day, then you don't ever eat regular food. food. You can't. Like, it sounds like my house. Like, it just, it's a bad thing and we can't help it. But yeah, they're, it, I'll hook you up with it. I'm in. I believe they're from Mississippi.

Even better. Right. Southern folks, they moved up here and catfish, collard greens, okay. Yams. I'm sold. Yep. Yep. Sold.

Season, they make their own season, different flavors, different ranges. It's pretty, it's pretty. Yeah. Yeah. They spoil us. So as we close out, and again, this is, I'm grateful because I've known all along that our people need more Anthony Smith in your life. As John and Cortland just met, says, most excellent show gentlemen, great family,

great young men, great young women, see you all around. For these fans to know who y'all are is important for me because it just exposes. They're good people here. This community, you know, when I give speeches and speaking engagements, I always start with good families make good people. And then good people make good families. And it's absolutely necessary for that to happen. And I wanted to share y'all with these listeners.

Because for a variety of reasons, but selfish among them, I get to talk fighting. And that's always a win. And apparently San Antonio is happening. It has to. So there's that thing. It's an apex weekend. And in your recovery, how much time do you allow yourself to think about who's fighting that week? Have you given much thought at all to?

No. Yeah. You have to allow yourself that? Yeah. Listen, I don't have a very big brain to begin with. A huge brain. Although that could mean that there's a lot of extra space. because there's not a lot of anything else in there.

If I, what I will do is I'll watch them. I'll watch them on Saturday. And then, you know, we'll podcast, we'll talk about it next week. And so we'll do a lot of reactionary stuff. But I just, some of the apex cars, if I just continue to fill my brain

with fights that don't necessarily matter to me specifically right now because I'm not working the desk, I'm not traveling for it, I've got really zero shows to do on it pre-fight. I can't, I just can't allow myself to, to overdo it. Because these fights are, they already start, like, I've had a pretty good break now and I still have a couple weeks left. I just need to allow myself to have the break.

Because if I continue to fill my brain with that, so I'm running out of room. I literally make a point that I will have any no sports weekend. I have to. Otherwise, I'll go crazy. I'll go crazy. But since you will watch the fights. I will.

What is the Smith family meal for fight watching? What's on the table? It kind of just depends on where we are or what we're doing or, I don't know. What would have been last Saturday was that pay-per-view that was in Abu Dhabi. We were at a, it was during the day because the time changed. So we were at a seafood boil. That was nice. I was kind of fresh out of surgery, so I was still kind of banged up.

but this weekend, do we have any plans this weekend Saturday? Nothing. Well, here's the plan forward. So for next week, we will find the perfect Smith family UFC watching meal. And we'll get it provided. That'd be great. We're just, I'm just putting it out there. I'm letting you know for next Saturday.

It's an apex card next Saturday. But we're going to make sure it's the perfect meal. Perfect. We're going to work on that. Anthony Lionheart Smith. Thank you, kind sir. Okay, well, thank you for letting him come out and play. We appreciate it.

Don't go anywhere.
