Joe, I was at UFC 306 tonight at the Sphere. It is unbelievable. It was incredible. How was the Sphere? It was nice? Let me like this here. It's great, Ocho, but the venue should not be the

attraction. The event should be. There's so much going on. It's so beautiful, and the theatrics of it is that it overshadows whatever is going on in there and you know and i get why dana did it because when i sat down and uh interviewed him about two and a half months ago he said they were going to have this as a um as a tribute to to the mexican heritage i think it's mexican independence uh what is it it's Mexican Independence. What is it? But it was a Mexican theme. They'd have a movie in between every fight. So it was great, Ojo, but it just overwhelms the event.

So you find yourself looking at the big video jumbotrons, and it's like you're watching a tv in your living room even though they're like 200 inches long wide uh the lights they got drones flying it looks like birds are up in the air it's just anybody that's been there know exactly what i'm talking about um and obviously they're trying to have more events scheduled there but it just overwhelms the event the venue does. How many people do you think the sphere holds? What is it? Like 15,000, 20,000? Yeah, 18,500.

You know what? Now that I say it, think about it. It's such a nice event. Obviously, I haven't't been there i'm not sure how much it costs to get in but it's probably a pity a pretty penny yeah like think about this in the future like stay with me now nightcap in vegas yeah yeah that would be something unbelievable yes yes it Yes, it would. Okay, well, let's speak that into existence then. Okay, get chat. Speak it into existence. Nightcap, Unc'n Ocho, the sphere. Have I, have I, have this, Ocho, have this on there, on the ball, because you know it glows in life.

You know what I'm talking about. I like it. I like, I'm going to manifest that. I mean, you put that, you can leave it up there a day. It costs you half a million for a day. We got it. We got it. We got it. We do? Yeah, right.

We do. But it was incredible, Ocho. Bantamweight champs Marab Divashilia defeated Sugar Sean O'Malley by unanimous decision. Ocho, he just out-wrestled him. O'Malley's going gonna have to be careful he has dynamite in his hands but he kind of reminds you a lot of conor mcgregor he has no once he got on the ground he can't get up yeah yeah both of them mcgregor also had that problem he was a great striker yes he's a very good striker but he wasn't really good on the ground

and when conor went down on the ground he wasn wasn't good at that, really getting up out of stuff. And, but how do you say his name? His first name. Marab. Marab. What he was able to do, he was able to tire him out. And he kept him off rhythm

so he couldn't get any clean shots because he continuously bounced really the whole goddamn fight and pick and chose his spots and went to take him down. Yeah, he's like the Energizer Bunny. He don't give you a whole lot of chance and you're going to have to

fill up early and you're going to have to get on your bicycle because he's trying to measure him, trying to land those shots and every time he takes him down he takes him down and now he's spending time and he's tiring him out. And that's the thing. O'Malley's going to have to be really careful i like it he has uh you know he has dynamite in his hands um but oh joe you cannot be one you don't need to be great at any good at

any one thing in ufc you need to be good at a lot of things and the people that are good at a lot of things. And the people that are good at a lot of things, your John Jones, your George St. Pierre's, is guys like that have Mighty Mouse, Demetrius Johnson. It's guys that have range that are able to survive and be multiple. What's the guy's name? The Brazilian. I forget his name. Anderson Silva.

Anderson Silva. You need to be good at a lot of different things. You need to be able to strike. You need to be able to take that wrestle. You need to be able to block wrestling. You need to be able to fight from the ground. You need to be able to get up. And Sean is like, he can strike.

He wants to stand and exchange with you. Well, that's not your, why would I do that? With that opponent, listen, you have to be able to adjust the opponents every every opponent's style is going to be different now marav style wasn't really in favor of sean o'malley and based on what he likes to do yes you know he kept him on the move the entire fight yes had him guessing because he was he was coming in and out in and out he wouldn't be still yes he wasn't he wasn't sitting in target he wasn't gonna sit there and exchange with you no no then you gotta you gotta think about also you gotta be careful with rushing in he can he can take you down you can get you can get clipped there's so many different things so many different

things and so many factors that go into fighting it's i mean it's a chess match in there. It was a one-sided fight. I was hoping that... Both fights. Both championship fights. Valentina, she won easily. Yeah. Over Grasso. I mean, basically, she wrestled him. She kept...

Every time, that was the thing. You keep you on your toes. You're like, oh, yeah, yeah. Shoot, boom, out on the ground. Now, I spend the next two to three minutes tying you out getting punches in all this uh but it was really a lopsided fight um i mean i'm very pleased with the with the show that dana put put on i'm not so he so i'm not so sure he's pleased with the performance he's got because i mean no people want to see knockouts if you go to to the UFC, you expect to see somebody get

a clip. You expect to see somebody get submitted, somebody get choked out something. And it seems like everything went to the cards. Now, Diego Lopez and Brian Ortega, Lopez was throwing haymakers.

I still don't know how Ortega survived. I don't know, Ocho, because he was hurt early in the fight. I thought he was out, and he was able to survive that. But, yeah, I definitely thought it would be a more interesting fight with O'Malley and Marab, but it wasn't, because, like you said, he kept him guessing. You heard the boos, right?

Yeah. You heard the boos? Yeah, I heard the boos. That's not what the people wanted to see. No. The people wanted to see actual fighting, but obviously when you get in there in the octagon, you got to be strategic.

It's a championship fight, so he had to do what he had to do to win the fight. And listen, it wasn't a fan favorite obviously it wouldn't be because rob wouldn't sit there in exchange so why would he yeah yeah you got to be tactical yeah that's what he did i know you got heavy artillery i got a knife and a slingshot and you want me to get and you want no i'm gonna pick you off i'm awake take my shot i'm gonna take the way till i get an opening and i'm gonna take my shot, I'm awake till I get an opening, and I'm gonna shoot my shot, tie your ass up put you on the ground, because you're gonna have to

exert more energy to get me up off you than I do have to exert energy to stay on top of you, and so that's all he did the same thing with Conor, and I'm not saying he's Conor McGregor, but he reminds his fighting style, he has great power especially in his left, he can put you down with either hand, but once they

get, once they got put on their backs, if you think about it, everybody that beat Conor, think about what they do. They drug him out to deep water. Get him on the ground. Even on the boxing match, what did Floyd do? Drag him out to deep water.

Even at his age, drag him out to the deep. Push him down. And O'Malley's going to have to get better at that. Look, him out to the deep, push him down. And O'Malley's going to have to get better at that. Look, Ronda Rousey, what she did for the female, for the women's, in the UFC,

but she was too one-dimensional. If she couldn't arm bar you, she couldn't beat you. She couldn't leg lock you, she couldn't beat you. And once Holly Holm kicked you upside the head, now all of a sudden, Ocho, that brain is slashed against the skull.

It's easier. And then what? Amanda Nunes says, we had Amanda Nunes. That fight was in New York. No, it wasn't. We was in New York because that's when Conor fought Aldo, Jose Aldo. And she came on the set and she says, I'm going to punish her. She says, I'm going to punish her.

She said, I mean, I'm sitting here and she's sitting right there. And I'm talking to her. And you can see the look in her eyes. And I remember telling Skip when the break came and she left, I said, she's going to knock Ron out. You could see how laser-focused she was, and I think the fight was like a month away or something. You were locked in, huh?

You were locked in. And I knew a little bit about her, but the line came to be played where she got dynamite in her hands, she's relentless, she can do it all. But that's what you need to be good at, looking at these fighters that have really that had staying power you you don't have to be great you need to be good at a lot of different things you got to be able to wrestle you got to be able to strike you can be able to

submit somebody but you got to be able to get up if you can't get up because eventually somebody gonna get you somebody's gonna put your ass on your back they're gonna get you down eventually they will and then what do you then what happens what is your defense then but but the the event dana did dana you did an unbelievable job boy the theatrics and the theme the mexican uh uh the heritage and the way they had it going. Oh, it was, it was an unbelievable event. I just don't, I, I, I don't think Dana got what he wanted as far as, you know, submissions, knockouts, things of that nature. Uh, Lopez and Ortega had the best fight of the night for me.

There was another fight early in the game, uh, earlier, uh, the black guy, I forget, I forget it was, I thought he had the dude hurt. He had him. I mean, dude tried to kick him. He got him and boom, caught it right on the button. Head hit. I was like, oh, he got him. Dude got up.

He fought through that. Ended up winning in three rounds. I don't think it was a 30-27, considering that I would have gave him a 10-8, considering that he completely dominated the first round. I don't think it was a 30-27 considering that i would have gave him a 10-8 considering that he can completely dominated the first round i don't i don't think it was i don't think it was a 27 i think he had maybe a uh maybe if you want to say he lost but not by the score that they had it um but it was a good it was a good it was a good situation i'm glad i got an opportunity i don't know if i'll go back to the sphere because the events that they've been having there i don't know if that's kind of you know like the eagles and youtube that's kind of

not my thing now would i go see beyonce there yeah because you're gonna put on a show yeah so it's a it's a venue and a show within a show um i i think probably two people that could could could put on a show there you're probably looking at beyonce you're looking at Taylor Swift. Those are the only that come to my mind. Absolutely. For that venue, Ochoa, for that venue. Right. To be able to fill that venue up. Mm-hmm.

Oh, if you think those tickets at SoFi or wherever Beyonce and Taylor Swift go, you think those tickets are high? Right. Boy, you talking about Empire State building high. Listen, you have to understand something. Now, you think those tickets are high? Right. Boy, you talking about Empire State building high. Listen, you have to understand something. Now, you talk about Beyonce and Taylor Swift being able to fill up the spear. Now, don't think for one minute if we have enough promotion ahead of time,

we can't fill that thing up to 19,000 now. Don't do that. We might be a year away. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. We ain't no year away because, listen, I can get 10,000 from Cincinnati to come out to support. You can get 10,000 from Denver

or Baltimore to come and support. Yeah, for sure. I'll do that. I'll get about 1,000 to come from the ATL for sure. Oh, yeah. Yeah, for sure. They definitely coming. Listen, my grandma always told yeah. Yeah, for sure. They definitely coming.

Listen, my grandma always told me, man, the tongue is a powerful thing. So some of the things that you speak, most of the time, you can speak things into existence. Yeah. There's a possibility in a year. Yeah.

I mean, look, I mean, there'll probably be some other people that could probably, like, Adele. I mean, Adele's voice. I mean mean but you gotta see adele voice she needs to be in a venue where you can appreciate it yeah like i'm talking about appreciate it man the sound bounce with a sound bounce off the ceiling to come right back to you so you you get a better understanding on on the purity yes and the effortless effortlessness that she can sing with and yeah that and her voice because she's a storyteller she's gonna sit down you know she's gonna sit on the steps and she's gonna tell you a story where she was um in her life

um what she was doing when this song came to her and she started writing it down, Ocho. But man, you got to hear that woman's voice. That woman. I've never heard Whitney in person. I've never heard Mariah in person. I can only imagine. Never heard Aretha. There have been some great singers, Ocho. Don't get me wrong. Let me give one to you. You ain't said yet. One of the most soulful can sing any genre of music. And to me has one of the top voices in the world. Adele is nice.

You ever heard Kiki Wyatt singing person? I have not heard Kiki. Why? She got, she got, she got, she got, she got lungs on her.

Ask the chat. I let the, I let the chat tell you. Yeah. She got Kiki Wyatt, chat. Come on now. She can take you to church. She can give you R&B. She can give you rhythm and blues. She can give you pop.

Right. Hey, listen, that woman there, when it comes to singing, and we talk about range. Hey, Ocho, you know who else would be good in there? I don't know if you've ever seen it. Bruno Mars. Oh, man. Listen, Bruno Mars is one of the better performers of our generation now.

He doesn't get the credit he deserves. He is one of the better performers. Listen, when you talk about stage presence. He can do it. And being able to command the crowd. He can sing. He can dance. He can play instruments.

Yeah, he good. Oh, yeah, he good. I've seen him a couple of times. I've seen him a couple of times. I've seen him a couple of times and perform, and he's unbelievable. Yeah, he nice. He really nice. Dana, thank you for the ticket. Jordan and I went

there tonight, and we had a good time.

In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra, you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago, but which few of us still remember today.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, your hands can't hit what your eyes can't see. Muhammad Ali was never afraid to express himself loudly and boldly and stays true to form in Ali and Me, an eight-part Audible original. Guided by his own words, this series explores Ali's life and legacy through never-before-heard audio recordings and discussions with those who knew him best. Muhammad had this real sense of his own personal values and principles,

things he believed in, his own sense of conviction. Those convictions never wavered. Hosted by Muhammad's wife, Lani Ali, and his close friend, award-winning broadcaster, John Ramsey, Ali and Me goes beyond the boxing ring to delve deeply into Ali's extraordinary life through conversations with Billy Crystal, Mike Tyson, Rosie Perez, Common, Will Smith, and Bob Costas. It created a North Star for me of how I want to be in the world, you know. As a child, as a young person, he gave credence to my audacity. There's no debate that this is the greatest global sports figure of our lifetime.

Listen to Ali and Me me now on Audible. I'm still hungry, though. Ain't had no food? They said, oh, they got food to sweet. No, I'm good. Donut, I don't look at donuts and Twizzlers. It's Skittles. I got to go on the bed on. Donut, I don't look at donuts and Twizzlers. It's ittle. I got to go on the bed

on the empty stove tonight, don't you? Hold on. Why are you eating that now? It was expensive. No, no, no, no, no. You know, food is sweet and the sweet is free. Oh, you was in the suite? Yeah. Oh, you got money, boy.

No, Dana, hook it up. You remember when I interviewed Dana oh you got money boy no Dana hook it up you remember when I interviewed Dana and he said bro I need to I need to be at that he just hit me up I hit him up and he's like hey how many you need I said two

cause I don't really like going to Jordan Jordan be blocking he's Jonathan Ogden he be clearing the path for me. It was a great time. I got an opportunity to see. I sure would have liked to go, but it's cool. Hold on.

I thought you was going to be in Chicago. I was in Chicago yesterday. I'm back in Miami. So you was going to come out here just for the fun? I went to my homeboy wedding, my homeboy Ryan. He got married. I went, I went, I went to my homeboy wedding, my homeboy, Ryan. Yeah.

He got married. I came, I left last night. So what I could have done, if there was an invite or formal invite, you know, for me, I could have left and caught a flight out to Vegas just to be able to enjoy the spirit with you.

So I could actually have a better understanding on your explanation of, of how great it was and how the self took away from the actual event itself, but I didn't get an invite. I tell you what. Okay, I tell you. Hold on. The next fight, the fight, what is it? Steve P. Milchich and John Jones is going to be at Madison Square Garden. I think I might,

there's a chance, honestly, it was a surprise for the chat, it was a surprise for you, there's a chance I might be on that 307 card i'm just i'm just throwing it out there now so uh so yeah but uh like i said if they're like fights here now if you know i can you know like i said i know dana dana dana's been because when the uf used to be with Fox, he would always come on. I would bet him such and such. We had a big old bet. He ended up buying me an expensive bottle of liquor

because I had him bet Floyd was going to win. He had Conor, obviously. But yeah, if you're coming out here and you want to go to a UFC fight, just let me know. But then that forces us to be late and I know you'd be ready to go to bed.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. See, at least I was able to stay up tonight and be able to give my all. You can tell by my energy that I took a nap today. Yeah, I took a nap. I took a nap today. So if we want to stay up until 5 o'clock here on 5 o'clock Eastern,

I'm okay. Yeah. I'm okay because it took me a nice four-hour nap. No, I ain't taking no nap today. I know. I know you're hurting. No, I'm good, bro. I'm good.

I got me a workout. I'm good. All right. All right. Just checking. You know, I'm good. Ocho, Colorado goes on the road, beat in-state rival Colorado State, the Buffaloes 28, the Rams 9.

Travis Hunter and Shador Sanders lead Colorado to the seventh straight win over CSU. Travis Hunter caught two of Shador's four touchdown passes, also had an interception and a pass breakup. Remember last year, Travis suffered a lacerated liver, a late hit by Henry Blackburn. Trav caught a touchdown against Blackburn today. Should do it with 36 of 49,

three, 10, four touchdowns, zero INTs. Offensive line did an unbelievable job. If you didn't know better, they were guarding the vault at a bank. You know how they be standing in front of the vault? Yeah. That's how

they stood today. The Buffaloes were wearing their new all-white uniforms and the defense came up big. They came to play. This is what we're talking about. Forcing four turnovers today. And they dominate CSU. I guess what? I guess them Instagram follows. They can play

some football too, CSU. I guess what? I guess if Instagram follows, they can play some football too, CSU. 28-29 Buffaloes over the Rams. Ocho, what did you like about what you saw today? I enjoyed the offensive play from the offensive line. That's what I enjoyed.

What they didn't have last week, Shador getting himself hit, running for his life. I think the linemen must have been upset about that. They got whatever they needed to get out of their system and came in this game. Shador had a clean pocket for the majority of the game and was able to deliver the ball.

That goddamn Travis Hunter, well, he's something special. Oh, yeah, he got spilled. That boy's something special. Not only was. Yeah, he got skilled. That boy's something special. Not only was he dominant on the offensive side of the ball, had a pass breakup, had an interception,

he ran the dig route. Yeah, he undercut. He undercut that. He ran the whole route. So, listen, they look very good top to bottom in all three phases of the game,

offense, defense. And I'm excited. I'm excited for them to take this momentum going into next week and continue to build off this win. I'm happy for Prime, man. I'm happy for him. I'm most happy for the offense and defensive line. They had six sacks.

Hill Green had two. Hayes had two and a half. Green the second had a half a sack. That's what, you know, Bentley had a sack. And, you know, they brought a specialist in, Sapp. Sapp's specialist was getting to the quarterback, QB Killer. And it's not for lack of coaching, because I know they're being very well coached.

Sack is telling, you know, getting them how to play on edges, because you're not playing down the middle of the man. You're not going to constantly bull rush the guy and get to the quarterback. It's going to take you too long and all you're going to do is make yourself tired. So he's getting them playing on edges. I thought they did a very good job.

I'm sure Ty probably told him, like, we got to do a better job against the run. 31 for a buck, 31, which is four yards of carry. You can live with that, but it really the run really didn't hurt him, Ocho. I thought Colorado came out there with a purpose. They seemed very, very focused and talking

to time. He's like, look, we good enough. The guys just didn't play well. They just didn't play well. Hey, he said, you know, I shoot you straight. If it was anything else, they just didn't play well. They can do it because I see them do it i see i watch him in practice and so but uh and he said he expected him he expected them to dominate csu today they dominated csu today they did and say he that's what he told me when he called me the other day he said he expected him

to dominate because he was going to jump on he was going to jump on with us uh wednesday thursday he said but i want to make sure he say he said man you know you know how they would be on me so yeah i gotta make sure i stay locked in he said but i i circle i circle back with y'all i i get with you i say hey handle your beers because i you're right because you come on with us and things don't go your way on Saturday. They're going to say the reason why you lost the game is that you came on night camp. Like we had some influence over. So I say, bro, I totally get it. You ain't got to explain anything to me. But I appreciate your support and even thinking about coming on.

So congratulations, Tyve. And to see you Buffaloes as they roll 28-9 over the Colorado State Rams. They defeat their in-state rival for the seventh straight time. Go ahead, Ocho. Who do they play next? Who Colorado got next? Who do they got next?

Baylor and Baylor or they play and see you they got Baylor and see you that's a winnable game for a mojo and that's

that's a winnable game ain't like ain't like Baylor got RG3 hell hold on Baylor throw the ball all over the face

that's okay so guess what you throw it you open your quarterback to get hit in the back his head yeah Hold on. Baylor throw the ball all over the place. That's okay. So guess what? You throw it, you open your quarterback to get hit in the back of his head. Yeah, you're right. Yeah. So Baylor probably ain't got no gangsters like that no more. I mean, they're going to throw the ball at me. Look, when you throw the ball, you're going to be able to get a receiver.

If you throw the ball a lot, you're going to be able to get some receivers because what receivers want to do, Ocho, catch the ball. They want to catch the ball. And you'll get your quarterback because the quarterback's going to want to throw the ball. So I'm not saying you'll get a five-star quarterback, but you'll get you a good, decent three,

three-and-a-half, four-star guy to go there that want to throw the ball, get an opportunity to play, and you'll get some guys that can catch it because they want to catch. So I'm sure they got some athletes. I haven't given a whole – I haven't really studied them, but I'll take a look at them this week because I'm pretty sure that we're going to talk about them next week.

So I'll give them a look and look at some of their guys and see where they were and the returning guys that they had and what they did last year and some of the guys that came coming out of high school to see what they were, their three, four, five stars. So, yeah, we'll see what's going on. Georgia survives a scare. Number one Georgia on the road in Kentucky. They won the game 13-12.

Mark Stoops had a chance. Ocho, fourth down. The number one team in the country. Down one with three minutes. He punted. He punted the football. And hoping his defense will be able to hold Georgia. Fourth down, if it ain't fourth and 25, I'm going for it.

Anything left, I'm going for it. It's something like that. You got to pull a Dan Campbell. You got to pull a Dan Campbell and let your players know, listen, I'm going for this against the number one team in the country. Why? Because I believe in y'all. Yes.

I believe in y'all. Punted on fourth and one when you're up one against the number one team in the country. That's basically telling your players, you know what? I don't think y'all can get it done. Exactly. I don't think y'all can get it done. So I'm going to take the safe route and just hope and cross my fingers that my

defense does what they need to do on the following drive. Yeah. That makes no sense to me, Ocho. At all. Then you got the ball back with nine seconds. What are you going to do with that? Hope you will get a fluty.

You won't get that yeah go for it you get that in the video game let me ask you a question oh here's the thing though if you got that much confidence in your defense that they're gonna hold them go for it right there and have confidence in your defense that you're gonna hold them might as well i mean because that's what you're saying we're gonna punt the ball try to pin you, and then we will use our timeouts. If you got that confidence, go forward on fourth down, believe in your defense and don't hold them, and give you the ball back.

It ain't that complicated. Sometimes they make it a lot more complicated than what it needs to be if you believe. I get it. I get why the Kentucky fans will book. Boy, we got the number one team in the country. A team that's only lost one game in the last three years. Won back-to-back national championships and blew Florida State out last year, 65-7.

And we got them on the road. We got them dead to right. And you punt the ball. Overthinking. Overthinking. Not being aggressive man but that's a no-brainer right there oh joe yeah because look what you had the ball man it's a no-brainer for you it's a no-brainer for some of the people in the chat now for the coach whose ass is tight in a situation like that not wanting to make a mistake and hoping that his defense can do what they need to do,

if you pin them back and force them to have to drive the field, maybe they might be able to stop. But here's the thing, Ocho. If you believe your defense is going to stop them, why not go for it on fourth down? Because that's what they're saying. They say, look, if we go for it on fourth down, we believe our defense can stop them.

If I got you, if I'm going in and I go for forward on fourth down, we believe our defense can stop. If I got you, if I'm going in and I go forward on fourth down and I don't settle for the field goal, I'm telling you that defense is going to stop you, punt the ball, and we still will have the ball in your territory. So in that situation, okay, defense,

I got trust in you. First of all, I don't believe we're going to need you because I believe my offense is going to be able to get this first down. But just for the you. First of all, I don't believe we're going to need you because I believe my offense is going to be able to get this first down. But just for the, if we don't, hey, I'm counting on y'all. I know y'all

can get it back. I know y'all can get us a three and I'll get this ball back, but we're here. We go get right back down the field. All we need is a field goal to win. But I don't know why the hell he put that ball down one against the number one team in the country. There's only lost one game in three years and back to back national champions.

It don't make no sense. And they load it. Hold on. Think about how many four and five star recruits. I mean, if they got 85 players, they dressed out 85 players, 75 of them,

four and five stars. Yeah. They probably got to walk on to make it look nice. But it ain't no, ain't and five stars. Yeah. They probably got two walk-ons to make it look nice, but it ain't no one star. Right. It's four and five. Yeah, I don't even think Coach will understand what that would do for the team, for the morale,

to be able to come off and pull off an upset like that. Hell yeah. Not only pull off an upset, but actually go for it. Man, you know what that would do for them young bulls, man, on that team like that. Yeah. Not only pull off an upset, but actually go for it. Man, you know what that would do for them young bulls, man, on that team, man. Yeah. Well, no, I don't know

because he didn't go for it. So we'll never know. Yeah. Billy Napier was booed as University of Florida falls to the Aggies. Florida lost to Texas A&M in its first time

starting Marcel Reed by two touchdowns after the Gator quarterback tossed three picks. Florida looked in up on both sides of the ball and overmatched for the second time this season in the swamp. First one against Miami. Miami beat the Brakes off him. And guess what? That put the

pressure on Billy Napier. This one could result in Napier getting I mean, I don't know what's going on with the what is that? North well, that's in the what's going on with the – what is that? North? Well, that's in the mid. That's in the west.

Yeah, with Gainesville and Tallahassee. Listen, I told you the best team in northern Florida is FAMU. FAMU football is the best team in northern Florida. They're better than Florida State. They're better than the Gators. I mean, that's just what it is. And you know what? I think if I'm not mistaken, Daniel Robinson. I think Daniel Robinson is a quarterback for

FAMU. Matter of fact, he could probably come and play at FSU and at Florida and do a better job than what they have there right now. That's how good he is. I might have his name wrong. If I do, I apologize. But man, young Bull is nice, man. Young Bull is nice, man. Young Bull is nice.

I think he's way nice. Florida and Florida State. Yeah, yeah. I'm not sure what's wrong. I'm not sure what's wrong. But I think unless until they get a quarterback, which I thought Florida State had, which I thought FSU had, I mean FSU, which I thought Florida had, it shouldn't be that difficult.

Quarterbacks should be lining up, wanting to play at these prestigious PWIs. I'm talking about PWIs. Wait, there's a PWI. Yeah. Predominantly white institutions, yeah. It is? Yeah. Okay, okay, okay. It's only a small percentage of us that makes up their, okay, yeah. Yeah. I mean,

they should have quarterbacks lined up. Predominantly white institutions, yes. That's what PWI means. Okay. What you thought of me? Who, me? Yeah, you thought I mean, they have quarterback lineups. Predominantly white institutions, yes. That's what PWI means. What you thought it meant? Me? Yeah, you thought I'd be where you would say DWI? You know what? I don't even know what it meant. I'm going to be honest to you. I'm going to be honest. HBCUs, Historically Black Colleges and Universities.

PWI, Predominantly White Institutions. Okay, okay, okay. I appreciate that. Here's the lesson, though.

I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on good company, the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next. In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide.

And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal that looked like it might bring down his presidency. Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir? No. It became known as the Iran-Contra affair. And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second. I'm going to ask Attorney General.

I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn. In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran Contra, you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago, but which few of us still remember today. The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you. Please do. To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, your hands can't hit what your eyes can't see. Muhammad Ali was never afraid to express himself loudly and boldly and stays true to form in Ali and Me, an eight-part Audible original. Guided by his own words, this series explores Ali's life and legacy through never-before-heard audio recordings and discussions with those who knew him best. Muhammad had this real sense of his own personal values and principles, things he believed in, his own sense of conviction.

Those convictions never wavered. Hosted by Muhammad's wife, Lani Ali, and his close friend, award-winning broadcaster, John Ramsey, Ali and Me goes beyond the boxing ring to delve deeply into Ali's extraordinary life through conversations with Billy Crystal, Mike Tyson, Rosie Perez, Common, Will Smith, and Bob Costas.

It created a North Star for me of how I want to be in the world, you know. As a child, as a young person, he gave credence to my audacity. There's no debate that this is the greatest global sports figure of our lifetime. Listen to Ali and Me, now on Audible. Check this out. Napier is now 10-6 at Florida Field,

giving him more losses in the Swamp in two-plus seasons than Steve Spurrier, who was 68-5 at home, Urban Meyer, who was 35-5 at home, had in their entire successful stints in Gainesville. If Florida were to fire Napier, Napier's buyout would be roughly $26 million. Well, he finna get that buyout anyway. He's going to get

that buyout. How long do you think they're going to let this go on? They're going to let this go on? Listen, the fans, the administration is not going to let it go on too long. Somebody from high up, matter of fact, the goddamn boosters. They have a lot of leverage.

Oh, yeah, yeah. The boosters boosters better get them up out of there. Yeah, they better get them. They bought a Jimbo for damn near $80 million that Texas paid them. They don't play. Texas bought a Charlie Strong for damn near $30 million. Yeah.

They got them guys to write them checks. Quick, in a hurry until they get the results they want i'm not sure i'm not sure the coach is who will stand in or be the what's the correct terminology for the coach that's the interim huh interim yeah i don't know who's gonna be the interim head coach but for some reason when the interim steps in sometimes sometimes you get the results you want sometimes you don't if you don't get them

with the interim coach that just lets you know how bad your team is yeah how bad your team really is and you know what they always say coaches get players fired now but guess what

players get coaches fired excuse me I'm saying it backwards but guess what Ocho all them players that's on that University of Florida team Billy Napier

bought them there so if they're not good enough that's on that University of Florida team, Billy Napier bought them there. So if they're not good enough, that's his fault. He's recruiting them. Yeah. How do you think they got there? You know, they're probably good, though. Them boys are probably good.

I can't tell right now. Well, they're not playing good. Yeah, the results are not showing up. No. Damn. yeah the results not showing up no damn oh Mr. Napier man Richard Smith you tell her all the time the special teams coach he be running the film he stop the film he say son that effort right there that's good enough to get you

cut and me fired and that's a lose lose every time man don't tell man look I wish I could have my cell phone and that's a lose-lose. Every time. Man, don't tell man, look, I wish I could have my cell phone recorded in the meeting room so you could hear like, people could actually hear

what the coaches actually be saying. And you're like... They don't want to hear that. They don't want to hear that because they're going to look at coaches differently. They would. They would. But they don't talk like that now. I don't know to hear that because they're going to look at coaches differently. They would. They would. They're going to look at coaches differently. But they don't talk like that now.

I don't know if they talk. Man, I've been fighting. You've been gone a decade. I've been gone two decades. So I don't know how they talk. But back then. Probably not. Yeah. Yeah, you can't say.

You cannot say. Because somebody going to tell on the coaches. Ain't going to get fired. Because you can't talk. Boy. Y'all know. Y'all know how it was if you play football you remember when you were younger how the coaching was taught and what they would say and say all kind of things that's deemed inappropriate insensitive now given you know our situation we understand that and we're

good change is good change is, but I'm just saying back then, there was no filter. And Coach has said things. You knew exactly what he meant. But man, whoo-wee! Yeah, that's

a bad situation, Ocho. Oh, if this ain't no turnaround in a hurry, Florida State and Florida? Oh, That's Florida. Oh, if this ain't going to turn around in a hurry, Florida State and Florida? Oh, them coaches gone. Oh, you think they're going to fire Florida State head coach too? Hell yeah. Ocho, do you know what he did?

They had a game schedule. They moved the game so they could play that team in 2029. They paid Memphis $1.2 million to come. They paid up basically $1.8 million to get their ass kicked. Yeah. He 0-3. That's two games he's lost at home.

That's tough, man. Oh, he got it. Memphis is a team obviously you put in your schedule so you can beat. Yeah. So you can beat. Yeah. So you can beat. Oh, Joe, anytime you pay somebody that kind of money,

you're paying somebody money, you're like, oh, yeah, we got them. It's just like homecoming. If you on somebody's homecoming, they put you there for a reason. Why the hell you think you're the homecoming? They got all these alumni coming in, these kids. I mean, some students don't come to the game. They ain't never came to the game. All the tailgating that's going on, they got you

on there for a reason. It's unfortunate. Oh, yeah. They about to get him up out of there. My grandpa used to say, boy, you got two choices. Get good or get gone. That's the only two choices you got. And if you look at Florida's

schedule, if you look at Florida State's schedule, I don't think it gets any easier for them. I don't think it gets any easier. So you could look at... They still got Georgia. Yeah, you could look at them going 0-4. Maybe not the whole season unless they squeeze out a game and do something

surprisingly. Somebody could have a zero, a donut at the end of the season. Mike Norvell's bought a $65 million. What? That might have to keep him another year. Also, you buy somebody out,

bring somebody else in, you have to pay them $50 million. You got to double up. Hell yeah. $65? Mike Norvell, how much is he making? Oh, I think he got a new deal after he was like,

he was about to go, they thought he was going to go to the college football playoff last year. So they was undefeated, so he got that deal. That's right. So that's how he got it. Yeah, he had a squad though, last year. He had a squad last year.

Yeah. Arch Manning accounted for five touchdowns in the Longhorns' 56-7 win over UTSA, University of Texas San Antonio Ocho, filling in for injured starter Quinn Ewers. Ewers is betting favorite to win the Heisman Trophy, entering in this weekend's left Saturday's game with a strained oblique. It did not return.

Manning threw a touchdown on his first play from scrimmage, hitting DeAndre Moore for a 19-yard scoring strike to lead 21-0. Then he showed off something his uncles, Eli and Peyton, never had. Speed! He got it. He raced for a 67-yard touchdown, the longest touchdown by a Texas quarterback since Vince Young. Manning accounted for two touchdowns on his first three plays from scrimmage.

Woo! What you think, Ocho? You like what you saw? Yeah, yeah, yeah. See, ours is going to be nice now. Ocho's going to be nice. The fact that he has a dynamic that neither Peyton or Eli had, you know, being a dual threat.

He got that from his grandpa. Because Archie could run. Archie could run. No, no. He could really run. So it missed them. Sometimes it skips a generation. Because sometimes you'll have twins. Like you might have grandparents that are twins.

Or, you know, uncle and aunt. And then it and then a skipper generation so their kid they won't have any twins but the kids keep uh will have the twins and so probably it probably it definitely ain't no problem it did because eli paid day i love paying today i've been around eli a little bit but i know paid pretty well because he should go back a lot to denver he still resides in Denver. They can't run. They slow. Okay? Try to be okay.

No. They slow as hell. Yeah, Barry, when you talk about your typical prototype-style quarterback, that's them. You know what they do have? Pocket presence and footwork. Pocket presence and footwork, and they have a feel for the game,

and they know when something's coming. They have a good feel for the game. Peyton is like Tom Cruise in Minority Report. He up there on that board. Yeah. Yeah. His ability to process information. His ability.

I saw this thing. I think it was Tom Brady. That joker kept every playbook. Oh, yeah. you saw it? Yes. Yeah. They did the same thing. So because a lot of times,

defensive coordinators, they're going to become head coaches. And guess what? That style. So, yeah, you was over here, and let's just say you was in New England. You became, you know, okay, this is the style he likes to run. Or, you know, so, yeah, I get it.

I get it. I threw my playbook right back in the middle of that bin. You know what I'm saying? Because you had to bring your playbook to the stadium, Ocho. So, you're looking at it right before you go out there on the field. Like, okay, make sure everything, okay, just, okay just okay right i'm hot on this right here okay they need to bring hymd blah blah blah so forth hey before we go before we go out on joke put it into what put it in that bin yeah hey get a new one same thing with the uh uh uh your playbook and training camp before you

leave training camp last day, throw it in the bin we good and you know back then, you know Mike you didn't get no checks, that playbook ain't in there, you don't get that check oh you have this damn thing I don't need my money damn that playbook

yeah but he played extremely well, I don't know how long Quinn Ewers is going to be out but uh uh arch did what he was supposed to do a five-star recruit highly recruited uh highly sought after uh probably anywhere in the country uh he went there because of sark sark does a great job of developing quarterbacks you look at the quarterbacks that he developed at USC. You look at the quarterbacks he developed at the University of Alabama.

Goes without saying. Tua, Matt Jones, Bryce Young. I think Bryce Young might have had a year up of him, even though he didn't start because he came after Matt Jones. You look at what he did. I think Carson Palmer

was that lineage. Matt Leonard, Matt Barkley. So if you look at and he developed quarterback, well you know how the managers are thinking. They're not just thinking collegiately. They're thinking next level.

Who's going to be the best guy to develop Arch and to make sure that when it comes time for the draft, he's ready, he's developed and ready to play quarterback. And they felt Sark gave them that best opportunity. And Sark, resume speaks for itself. Hey, Sark, what's

up, man? Great job. Let me try to think. Hey, send me a Texas jersey nah I take a helmet Texas? yeah hmm on in the back

that's all I know congratulations Arch good job University of Texas 56-7 win over University of Texas San Antonio the Memphis Tigers kept Florida State Seminoles winless Good job, University of Texas. 56-7 win over University of Texas, San Antonio. The Memphis Tigers kept Florida State Seminoles winless. Ocho, FSU. Bass even got even worse.

20-12 victory in front of an exasperated crowd. The results snapped a nine-game winning streak in the series for Memphis, which last defeated Florida State in 1976. That probably was a Bobby Bowne probably first year. Wait, in 76? Yeah, I think Bobby Bowne got there probably like 74, 75. In 76, Bobby Bowne beat his first year.

76, 86, 96. Yeah, he was there like late 70s. I'm hoping. Coach Bowne get to Florida State Florida State quarterback his confidence is shot right now DJ something right? I think his confidence is shot

it's shot real bad it's shot real bad Oh Joe Florida State 76 yeah like you did okay yeah but Florida State ain't got them

dogs they used to have oh no you gotta think back then everyone stayed in the state of Florida you had three you had three choices UM Florida State or Florida you didn't want to go anywhere else. Because you think about

what they had. Man, they had Sammy Smith. They had Time. They had Leroy Butler. Man, they had a... Boy, they had a stick. Florida State, you'd have Odell. Odell Higgins. Oh, man. Yeah.

You had some boys now. But all of them, yeah. But allida schools used to they used to be loaded they used to be loaded unbelievable and then you know guys started leaving they started going to alabama and ohio state and they started leaving to georgia and they started why you know under that table now. They weren't just leaving just to be leaving. NIL been going on for years. Oh, that's not what it's called. It's just called NIL. Yeah, it's called briefcase.

It just so happens you go to school and every four and five star like the same type of car. Everybody got a Charger or a challenger. So I don't nobody like don't nobody like no Ford. Yeah. Or no Chevrolet.

So everybody just like Dodge. Everybody just like him. Crazy how they work. Yeah. But boy, Florida State, Florida State. Oh, they got to do something. They got to do something. They got to do something fast.

They schedule don't get no easy either. No. After starting the season off ranked number 10 in the country, Florida State became the first team in the AP poll history to start within the top 10 and lose three consecutive games to unranked teams to begin the year. And if I'm not mistaken,

the poll era started in 1936. Ash got a look at it. She make me sick. Chad, I just want y'all to know Ash make me sick. Okay. Could I say that? Ash make me sick. The Seminoles became also became the third team since 1988

to open the season with a record of 0-3 following top tier rank. Why you got your arms folded, Ash? What? So what do you mean I'm right? Oh, the pole arrow started in 1936? Oh, you was right?

You was right? You was on point? Yeah. I knew something. I knew something. When she folded her arms, don't show she's sitting over there like this here. You know, you know, you know your stuff, man. I give you that.
