Coming at you live from the heart of Lincoln America, a 93-7-the-ticket and the ticketfm.com. Here is your host, Derek Pearson, brought to by Canopy Street Market. Boom. Hour two will send some well-wishes to Adam Carriker so he heals up. We'll see him Monday. Superman will be back. Superman will be back on Monday. Don't worry.

He'll be back. 402-664-5-6-85. the Sartanahman text line. You want to be a part of what we're doing? Reach out with a what's up. We'll read your text. Promise. You can follow on the live video streams,

Facebook, YouTube X, and Allo channel 961. 961. And again, we will keep it moving. And I want to keep saying that, you know, it's Rico's last day. We celebrate whatever's happening for him next, no matter what that is, rooting for him in full. in full.

So there's no question. We were talking about, you know, Pac-Man Jones running at age 40, running a 4-5-40 yesterday. And that's impressive. Like, that's, you're an alien, stop it. Like, that's just you proclaiming in full. Like, I'm not like y'all.

Like, they're not like us? No, yeah, they are not like us. And then pointed out that Daryl Green, at age 50, on his 50th birthday, ran a 4-4-3. a 4-4-3-40 at age 50. Now, if you are out here listening right now and you're over 40 and can run a 4-5-40,

hit me up. Let me know. I want to shout you out. Matter of fact, I will buy you coffee. You probably don't drink coffee if you're over 40, you can still run a 4-5. It's funny. Look, I spend, because of the programming now,

I'm spending three hours a week. with Ron Brown, and that Ron Brown's 68 years old. But I paid attention that at the spring practice, or the practice they let everybody watch. You know, there's a moment where they dropped the footballs and everybody ran, including coaches. And I look, and there's 68-year Ron Brown out there to run a sprints. And I'm just going, stop it.

Stop it. But he can't because Ron Brown's an alien. He can't help it. Aliens have to alien. There are certain people that just, listen, we talked about, oh, and by the way, I have to remember, remind me to do a thing. But to tell you that aliens processing how they process that I'm on Green did the Hot On On On On Challenge and was barely affected. Was barely affected while people are in tears and sweating. I'm on green was just another day of walking on the beach

in full sudden breeze. Like he was just unaffected. And I thought about that. I was like, you really are an alien. Like I thought that when you were here at Nebraska, I thought that when you were in the NFL. I know it now.

Amon Green is not one of us. He is not one of us. And he still looks like, you know, if you put the pads on him right now, he could go get to, he'd go get to 75. Right? So it's a thing. But that brings out another thing.

if you are a fan of the ticket, you know that we like to dabble in the Hotlands wings challenge. We like to dabble. We dabble. Bach, you, you were a man of integrity. You said that Brett Baker came in. He brought the 10 wings and all the spices, and you stood toe to toe and went in and did the whole challenge.

You got all 10, right? We can go up and down the roster of the current. 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. ticket talent. RICO not only did the wings, but he did the one chip challenge as well, right? Jake Sorensen is like the kid in high school who tells you, hey, he was like, Jake, we never see you with a girl. Oh, I have a girlfriend. She just goes to another school.

So Jake Sorensen says, hey, I did the challenge. I just did it. I did it before you were. I'm like, no, that's you having a girlfriend that goes to another school. Bro, that doesn't count. Stop it. That doesn't count. It doesn't count.

He goes, well, there's a video somewhere. I'm still waiting for that video. So Jake Sorensen, and here's what's funny. There's some peer pressure to this, right? But if you're the number one show, don't you have to be leaders?

I think so. Right? You can't tell me you're the ones. But Jake hasn't done a ticket hot ones. Simple. has not done it. Bill Bush has not done it. So official public challenge. Brett Baker, cue it up, be ready.

This is what we're going to do, right? Hot Wins Challenge, 10 wings. Early break, you haven't done it. Aaron Davis gets a pass because of his heart condition. Like, I don't want to do that too. But Rath? Come on, big boy. Let's go.

AG's done it. Nick Sainer's done it. Rico did it. So I'm saying, listen, if you're Bill Bush, you can't let, you can't let Rico and Nick out, I'll grind you. Like, you're a leader.

Come on. Like, simple, you're a boxer tough guy, right? Yeah. Come on. Right? So I offer the challenge to Adam Carrier. I'm all in, right? No surprise, full.

So my thought is, that will do it lunchtime on one of characters hours. Steve Taylor has not done it. So Steve Taylor officially challenged. That's it. Hot ones challenge. Eric Strickland, the Hall of Famer, has still failed to post. Strip.

Be better. Be better. Austin Ormond. It's time, big guy. It's time. Listen, man. Love you. It's time.

Jay Foreman's done it. Jay Foreman did it. Chancellor Brewington did it. Man, he went through it. Chanceor fought his way through. That was not. I've done it four times. You keep doing it?

Well, here's the thing. Leadership is the thing that what are we doing rather than what I need for y'all to do? I can't ask you to do a thing that I won't do. That's leadership in full for me. That if the thing is right for you to do, it should be something for me to be able to experience with you or to go through it with you.

I can't just say, hey, do it my way, right? So I think that would be it. Rishon did it but didn't finish, right? I think he got the six, which, sorry, captain, leadership. Leadership can't call yourself to captain. Can't call yourself the captain if you can't complete the mission and you can't lead people through it. Farley did not complete it.

Blackshirt did not complete it. Nick completed it the day that Varshan and Farley were trying to. Nick did it and was so beat up that he left all of his possessions at the restaurant. He literally just tapped out and went, I'm done. Like this is crazy. And we had to carry his stuff back to it. So that's the list, right? So to the gentleman from early break.

Okay. So I'm going to look straight at the camera. Jake Sorenson, Steve Sipple, Bill Bush, Adam Caricker, Eric Strickland, Austin Orman, for Sean Jackson, Thorelle Farre.

We can invite the young person. Harrison's done it. So, matter of course, he's done it three times. Matter of fact, because late night, students have done it.

He's the leader. Right. Absolutely, right? That's why I picked him to run the nighttime. Yeah. So to say that, Brett Baker, dear friend, it's time. The recalibrating of ticket talent requires Brett Baker to come in will allow Carrickr, early break guys.

Look, don't claim to be the number one show if you can't post. Hotwin's Challenge, got to do all 10. Got to do all 10. And we're not asking them to do anything that we haven't done. So there's that. We were talking about the D.R. Green thing. Here's what, so my time in D.C., so I was actually there when Daryl was still there and Dian came to Washington.

And the speed thing. And again, at that, I mean, 40-ish, still quick. I wasn't as college fast, but I was still quick. And the humbling is when you say that they're not like us, that we're out, you know, catching passes and, you know, slow jogging routes against legends, right, just through your ego. But then there's the competitor thing in them to just go, okay, just so you know, we still that, like we're still those guys.

40 yard dash, Dion and Darrell ran it backwards. They ran it, but, bot. Yeah. Get in your lane, bro. Like, they ran it backwards. And then, you know, it's like to run backwards. you're running full speed and the dude's running backwards, staring at you smiling. Like it's not even working.

It's not work. It's just, oh. What they do? Oh, is this what you got? Is that it? To say the difference between us mere mortals and the stars, when I went to Utah and they sent me down, the station said, you got to go down to the jazz practice facility. They won't talk, meet you, that sort of deal.

and I walk in and they send me upstairs and upstairs in the practice area there were these treadmills. And I walk in not really knowing who to look for. It's just the Utah Jazz. And this is in the Stockton and Malone here. Right? And I walk into the gym area, and there are two people on the treadmills putting in work.

And it's Carl Malone and John Stockton. And Bach, again, the great humble. This is why when I talk about people in sports, I'm really sensitive to, I can't say anything about people that can do stuff that I can't do. They didn't say a word. They just, they put their finger to their, to their mouth, like, be quiet, but come way forward. And I walk up and I'm offering my hand. They're like, they're shaking their head, no. And they're just pointing to the next treadmill. And I'm like, oh. Okay.

I get it. Y'all, this is my, y'all challenging me. Okay, okay. Again, 40. Like, this is 2002. I still got a little juice in tank. Not in full, but I'm still, get on the treadmill.

But 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30, 40, and I'm in total silence. And I'm just, looking like, get hour, hour 10, hour 20, and they are putting in like sweats pouring. And then finally, I just stop, I stop my treadmill. I'm like, what's going on? Like, what are we even doing?

And they burst into this biggest amount of laughter. Like, ah! Got him. And I'm just like, and they said, listen, the fact that you're willing to go through this, to put yourself through this, to get an interview shows us a lot. And I just went, and I turned my head and Jerry Sloan, the late great Jerry Sloan, who was the jazz head coach at the time, is in tears laughing. He's in tears.

And it's the stuff that as a coach, if you can listen to the Joe Gibbs, John Thompson's, Jerry Sloan's Urban Myers, Lavelle Edwards, you talk differently about coaches. Like you, I don't care what kind of coach I am. The word coach has a different meaning when you say it about them. Like Coach Osborne,

there are coaches who have been at Nebraska who when you say coach, you don't mean what you mean when you talk about Coach Osborne. Like that's a different coach. Those are all capital letters in that coach, right? There are certain athletes where you go, okay, you're an, I was athletic. Those are athletes.

There's a difference. Like, those, they're elite. They consume food differently, right? It's when you go to a gym and you, like some former NBA dudes in the gym, like you're at a public run, but some NBA dude just shows up, he just happens to be there. And then he starts to move and he starts to shoot and you go, oh, oh, okay. That's why That's why

I got a microphone I'm a talker He's a doer And it's humbling It's humbling Um Texas says I'm a few months shy of 50 And I'll

I'll run a 5, a 4-440 Oh he ran it back in his 18 and 20 Um He said if you put the cops on my tail I still might be able to do it That generally is the thing right That is a different speed Motivation.

Yeah, yeah, I'm not sure. You know, police, uh, loose, somebody's loose dog, but it has to be a big dog. Like, oh, yeah. Different, different, different. Uh, somebody, somebody steals your wallet, got different speed. Somebody approaches your girl. Different speed.

Uh, when I raise this, is there any point to Raff doing the challenge? Would it still be as spicy at that altitude? Yeah, I think, that's hilarious. I think about that though to have character and wrath side by side turning all sorts of different colors of red right like oh like we would definitely win the radio battle royal wouldn't we? I think so of those guys. Right? Like we would win the radio. If we did a right like they're talking about having a spring game of flag football for media.

I think we should have like a battle royal and we'll say. First two out. Like, we're not even going to play with it. But I'm going to play with it. And then, oh, by the way, Jay Foreman, Farley, here they come. I was trying to explain who was I talking to the other day. So we talked about that with the 93-7, the ticket crew. But in a battle royal, it's kind of funny because you would think,

okay, well, then the biggest guy is going to win. But if you actually watch them, I know, it's predetermined or whatever. But they always pile in on the big guy. Everybody knows we got to eliminate that guy together because it's not going to happen. Who would be that? Do we all have to defeat character? together or is it wrath? I think we...

I don't know. I don't know. But here's what I know about the ticket. Here's what I know about the ticket. You know who the first one over... If you put them all... So if you did it, Royal Rumble style where it's won every whatever,

then it's kind of a crapshoot depending on the number. But if it was a Royal Rumble where everybody's in the ring and you just... The first person out, everybody on the station would work to give V.J. out first.

There's no question. There's no question. Just a humble... It's not even close. Like in that, I think there, yeah, I think there would be some. If they did do one-on-one, though, I'd have to have, we'd have to start with VJ and Terrell. Oh, just to work some things out.

Finish that argument that I've been hearing for the last couple of years, who would beat who in every single everything. Yeah, that's right. I'm all in for that. I'm all in for that. that would be, that would be exceptional. Like, and I know we have some talent to people out there, but I think if we literally, if you did a Royal Wumble,

one is VJ, two is Farley, Bach, you're the officiator, you're the outside, and you're just out there. Like, you're just talking them through it. You're just talking through it. We, and then Euler could be third. Oh, yeah, that'd be good. Yeah.

Yulah could be third. But I think that if you didn't Royal Rumble style, we're all 20 competitors. Oh, if VJ won, it would be, it would be, we would, oh, we'd have to move the station. Like, we'd have to move the signal. He would be like King Booker. Oh, yeah.

Remember I? You know, King Booker where he said, you all address me as King Booker. Oh, yeah. And he would put one finger up. He would be King Vijay. And we would, like, we would have to put a throne out here. Like, we would have to put a throne out here.

Like, we would have to put a. royal chair for him to sit in and have like a ticket crown for him to wear in his royal scepter um that would be a thing but i i still say that i'm on greens an alien so i somehow somehow some way i'm on wins the dang thing i can see that for sure right like i just he's he's an alien he's a different dude um yeah yeah yeah they would get VJ and then they get Simple. Like I, they might get simple first. Just, you know, because Simple would want to sit in the corner and just talk.

Yeah. Like, hey guys, let's consider this. Here's what we know and what we don't know. Here's what we know and what we think we know. Try to rational. And then he would sucker punch because the boxer and him would come out, right? Like he'd find somebody who wasn't paying attention and pop him in the jaw, right? Bill Bush would have several tricks up his sleeve to get things moving.

Jake, Jake would be the guy, 100%. Jake would be the guy who would crawl under the bottom rope and hide. He would, like, fake injured and hide until he ended and run back up and then have, you know, then have Vijay or Sipple throw him over the top rope again. I think I love that idea now. It's been a ring. Look, if you can get those, you can get, as a matter of fact, we just go down to the complex.

Oh, there we go. We can go right down the complex. We'll call, hey Tommy, we need the complex for, we need the complex for an hour just to have that happen. That's another thing, though. I think that having them go through a training session down the complex would be really cool. Oh, yeah. To record and kind of see.

where Mark Manning has said next year permission any of our talent wants to go down there and get their grapple on. Oh man. Yeah, just to see. Of course, you know, bad things would happen. Bad things, bad things would happen. It's fair.

Steve says, I'm 56, 320 pounds. It would be a 22nd 40. I'm with you, bro. I'm jogging those nowadays. I have no meniscus. Texas says Harrison is the dark horse at the ticket. Harrison's a worker bee, man. He's he's, he's, he's, he's, he's there.

Uh, Jay Strizzle, nice to meet you, brother. He said a long time listener, first time texter. Uh, he goes, I freaking love this show and I probably take the long run too often in order to catch all three hours. Man, we appreciate you hanging out, uh, with us on a day-to-day basis. He says, yeah, if VJ won, he'd make a crown. He'd literally pull the Sina, spinner, you know, spin, top championship belt. Yeah.

Oh, oh, you're 100%. 100%. All right. We'll throw a break. We'll come back. More one-on-one here on the ticket.
