You're listening to 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. Shout out to Anthony Lahnhart-Smith. Again, send your prayers and healing vibes to Anthony Smith. I saw Bach the picture of the Franken-Botneck thing that he has going on now. it showed the clamps and pens that have gone into that are in his neck and that he's in recovery from a full career in the UFC to tell me that you fought in the UFC with with not 100% neck for eight years yeah yeah lionheart indeed line hard indeed but yeah we were texting last night it was funny you know it's just like hey man and he's he's he shared his wife's there taking care of him

But it is a humbling thing. Todd Euler's going through it. Eric said he had his L3 and 4th views in December. It's a whole different type of pain. Eric, bro, I'm fist pumping you because I'm just telling you that when you go through that, Euler's going through it and has done a pretty good job of managing and he's doing getting his walks in. That was a big thing was getting mobile, getting to the point where like at and literally Bach, one, so there's several things.

Getting, you have to learn how to get into bed and out of bed. And then to position yourself so that you don't turn in your sleep. That you, literally, it said six months, no twisting or turning or bending. So, you know, and I wore the brace, Yuler was talking about that he had stopped sleeping in the brace. I was like, uh-uh, no, sir. No, sir. Sleep with that brace because, again, you're in your subconscious, right? Your brain doesn't know that you shouldn't do the natural thing that you've done your entire life,

which is pull up your knees, roll over, how you rotate. And at the neck, it really is everything. And it's every movement. So, Eric, I hope you're, I mean, December, you're in a good, you're probably in a good spot now. But Anthony and I will be, he'll be around. He's a huge Husker football fan, Husker sports fan. You'll see him based on at PBA. You'll see him at Memorial Stadium.

And, of course, he loves Husker wrestling and Mark Manning. And that crew, as a matter of fact, we crossed over and connected AJ Ferrari, Ridge, Lovett, Antrell Taylor, with Anthony. And that Antrell, we get to Antrell to make a video for Anthony's daughter, said she's an entrail fan. But yeah, it's a birthday celebration. and I'm feeling good. There are a couple of cakes in the building. It was the thing.

And Bach, here's the weird thing. So I have on this Husker quarter zip, short sleeve, but it's got the pouch, the zipper in the front, like for the pouch? Yeah. And so I've had a project outside on the patio with bird feeders, right? And to feed it, load it up, birds and squirrels,

and now raccoons. And now raccoons. Raccoons have entered the chat, have joined the chat. The squirrels and the birds have learned to coexist and to kind of, so we have two different locations. We have one that hangs off the tree, a bird feeder off the tree. And then on the ground, we have feeder for squirrels, right? So the squirrels will figure out, okay, well, you know,

the good corn stuff is at the bottom at the base. so we'll leave the bird feeder alone. Just out of kindness. Hey man, dude hooked us up. Right. And they battled. There were gang wars when we just had the one. Oh, yeah.

Like they were getting. Birds wars. Oh, bro. They were out there getting it. Like they were getting it. I've never seen a squirrel take a running start, leave all four of its paws in the air towards a bird. Like it was like, what is happening?

Like I felt like Marlon Prankett's out there. You know, mutual of Omaha, a wild kingdom outside the. ticket patio. Because I'd never seen like a Kung Fu squirrel. Like this thing, it ran, bruh, it was, if he had turned his head, he would have speared, he would have Roman rain spear'd this burn. Like, so today I'm out there

and I'm filling up the feeder. And the bag has a, you know, slit at the side of it. And you can pour it into the top of the feeder. And for some reason, I misjudged. Like the distance. and I'm pouring and none of it's going in and I look and it's going on the ground. Oh.

So I'm like, okay, but that's fine because the birds like that too, that they eat that and the squirrels are like, okay, you know, we ain't going to mess with you even if you're on the ground eating. We're not going to mess with you. Now, mind you, the squirrels have figured out that they can crawl down the limb

that the thing is hung on and they can tilt the bird feeder so large amounts of the feed just falls on the ground. So they, and they, And they will hang, they will do gymnastics, like on the branch to get the right leverage. And you see them with their hind paws pushing this feeder back and forth so that the feed falls on the crowd. But the raccoons have figured it out.

The raccoons are figured out that, okay, at night when the birds are, no, the raccoons like, okay, let's see what kind of buffet we got going. And they will show up. Well, I'm pouring this thing to, and I think I'm. I'm missing the feeder and it's going to the ground, except for just now in the last segment. So my jacket feels a little heavy. So I put my hand down in it and there's like a pound and a half of bird feed that as I was pouring, went straight into my open, the open pouch on my jacket.

So I had to go out during the break and empty out my pouch. And I felt like such, and you, listen, Bach, I don't know if you've ever been judged by birds. The birds were totally judging just now. Like they were, listen, they, sometimes they will scatter, sometimes they'll just move from where they are. But they were looking at, do y'all see this dude? This dude has, you really messed up, D.P.

So I'm recovering from bird judgment right now. And, but they're fed and they're happy. So there's what that is. We'll throw it to break hour to. Hear one on one on the ticket.
