This episode of Nightcap is brought to you by Cologuard, a non-invasive colon cancer screening test. Did you know colon cancer is considered one of the most preventable yet least prevented cancers? When caught in the early stages, colon cancer has a survival rate of 90%. So screening and early detections are key to reducing overall colon cancer deaths. That's why
Starting point is 00:03:46 the American Cancer Society recommends that if you're at average risk, you begin screening for colon cancer at age 45. And a convenient way to do that is with Cologuard tests. The Cologuard tests allow you to be in control of your colon cancer screening through prescription-based tests delivered to your door with none of the prep that's required for colonoscopy. No liquid prep, no days off, no invasive procedures. Plus, Cologuard test is affordable. Most insured patients pay zero dollars and a follow-up colonoscopy is needed after a positive Cologuard test. This is usually covered by insurance also. So if you're 45 years of older and at average risk, you can ask your health care provider about screening for colon cancer
Starting point is 00:04:28 with the Cologuard test. You can also request a Cologuard prescription today at Cologuard.com slash podcast. The Cologuard test is intended to screen adults 45 and older at average risk of colorectal cancer. Do not use Cologuard test
Starting point is 00:04:41 if you have had adenomas, have inflammatory bowel disease and certain hereditary syndromes or personal or family history of colorectal cancer. The Cologuard test is you have had adenomas, have inflammatory bowel disease, and certain hereditary syndromes or personal or family history of colorectal cancer. The Cologuard test is not a replacement for colonoscopies. High-risk patients' Cologuard test in adults 45 to 49 is estimated based on a large clinical study of patients 50 and older. False positives and false negatives can occur. Cologuard is available by prescription only.

Starting point is 00:06:36 Eagles, 14 Patriots, 2012 Ravens. I guarantee you, if they let us play by the rules that they played by, not one of those offense scored on that Ravens defense I guarantee you none of them will get more than 20 points I could have told you that let me take that back
Starting point is 00:06:50 they won't get more than 14 points listen I could have told you that how many yards Saquon had 57 he'd have 37 against that defense hey he had 57 He'd have 37 against that defense. Hey. He'd have 37.
Starting point is 00:07:06 He had 57. He'd have 37. Hey, it was different back then, man. And that's no disrespect to the play. Yeah, they did not let you play like that. I don't think they understand. I don't think they understand. What?
Starting point is 00:07:22 At great as great. No, they don't know that. At great as Saquon is that Baltimore that 2000 Ravens defense man come on man they going they going sideline to sideline
Starting point is 00:07:34 right along with you you not you not going downhill you not you not running tall you not running stretch be moving nobody take that take that Eagles offensive line running tall. She's not running stretch. Ain't moving nobody off the...
Starting point is 00:07:45 Take that Eagles offensive line against y'all D-line back then. That 2000 Ravens D-line. You're not running because you got Sam and Goose. Man, please. And Ray running free. Because of Stan and Goose. Ray hunting.
Starting point is 00:08:03 Yeah, Sam and Goose. Yeah. Yeah. You got 340. You got 350. And Ray Free. That would have been ugly. That would have been ugly.
Starting point is 00:08:14 Listen. Just to be able to talk. I get it. It's exciting. It's exciting. It's kind of like Barry. You had to see Barry in person to appreciate him. To understand and appreciate him, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:29 To see Jerry. I was in the league when Jerry said he got the triple crown in 90. So, like, those great players, you had to see them. Right. To see Derek Thomas, to see Bruce Smith, to see Reggie White, to see those guys, to see Prime. I'm talking about a Prime, Prime. Up close. To see a
Starting point is 00:08:46 Why do you think I always speak so highly? Why do you think I always speak so highly of Randy? Why do I always speak so highly of T.O.? Why do I always speak so highly of A-Folk out here from Dade County, Liberty City, Antonio? Being able to see them dudes up close, and I've been watching
Starting point is 00:09:06 the game of football for a very, very long time, for a very, very long time. It's different when you look at stats and numbers. The finished product, when you actually have the opportunity to see how the product was made. When you saw the product in the lab. When you saw the
Starting point is 00:09:22 product up close on grass and understanding, looking at Randy Moss and the DB is playing 10 yards off, and Moss don't even close the cushion, he throw his hand up, and still... Come on, man!
Starting point is 00:09:38 What? What are we talking about? Unbelievable. Yeah, but those rules, look, you can't play like that anymore because, you know, those guys, go back and look at that 2000
Starting point is 00:09:56 and see how many quarterbacks they knocked out. I mean, I saw a clip the other day of some of Ray Lewis's hits, of some of Shug's hits. I saw that. Y'all got it. You got it.
Starting point is 00:10:04 I'm talking about, go back and watch 2000 and watch that defense. It was different, man. Remember, in 16 games, they gave up 165 points. I don't think people understand. And they gave up 35 in one game.
Starting point is 00:10:25 They gave up 16 total points in the postseason in four games. That's crazy. I don't think people understand how good they were. Listen, from top to bottom, man, there was no weak. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. We had C-Mac and Heavy. Dwayne Starks. We had Ken Herring and Heavy, Dwayne Starks,
Starting point is 00:10:46 we had Ken Herring, and we had Woody Rod at safety, and our nickel was Corey Harris, and our dime was Bailey and Trap. Corey Harris, man.
Starting point is 00:11:02 I want to know where Corey is, man. Hopefully he ain't... Man, I ain't going to put the man business out there, but he was a wild dude, man. I would leave it at that. Because, you know, me, Corey, Woody, and Ray. Yeah. That was the group.
Starting point is 00:11:24 So I was going to say Cole was wild. The commander is potentially interested in trading for Cooper Cup. Jeremy Fowler reports, talking to people around the league, he will have a market because he's so quarterback friendly. Certainly Washington is looking for a complimentary number two receiver. Washington is looking to make big moves this offseason. Ocho, could they actually land Cooper Cup and Miles Garrett? Both?
Starting point is 00:11:55 Is that possible? Well, actually, you know, actually it is possible, especially with the cap going up to what it's going up after the news I saw today. It's possible. 22 to 25 million increase. It's possible, and I like the move. I like the move, but you know what that does? What? Terry McLaurin,
Starting point is 00:12:12 you add Cooper Cup, I think Naomi Brown is still there, obviously. It takes some of the pressure off of Jaden Daniels. You got Zach Ertz. You got Brother Ertz. It takes some of the pressure off Jaden Daniels. You mean I get to have Cooper Cupp who still is an elite route runner
Starting point is 00:12:28 he can play outside he can play inside he can do just about anything he can run the route tree intermediate short hell he sneaky fast too with that if you want to send him D I like the move what's about a triple crown runner, man?
Starting point is 00:12:47 He was just a triple crown winner not too long ago. Ain't nothing wrong with him. And just the nature of the business on how it works. Go ahead, get him over there. You made it to the NBA championship. What you got? Imagine if you add that to the piece. Imagine you add that piece to the puzzle.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Yeah. Man, please. But look, and if I'm Washington, look, I'm going all in. Because I'm doing everything I possibly can, Ocho, because in a couple of years, I'm going to have to see it. You got to see it. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:19 He's going to show up at the pay window, Ocho. Hey, you know who's going to show up at the window? You remember... Hey, you know I ain't going to show up at the window? You watch Martin? Yeah. Remember the Christmas episode when they got stuck in the bus terminal and Mark went to the window asking for some quarters to make a call? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:38 That's how James Daniels is going to be at that window. Yeah. He ain't going to make no call, though. And Josh Harris look they made it abundantly clear they're trying to win oh yeah you see the way
Starting point is 00:13:49 the way they move how they do things they're trying to win imagine Johnson look imagine what the Lakers look at that they don't
Starting point is 00:13:58 they don't spend they I don't know they print money in L.A. it was the Dodgers they got Mookie. Hell, in just two salaries, they got a billion dollars? Yeah, Shohei, Brady Freeman.
Starting point is 00:14:13 Mookie? Mookie. And they got pictures now? I got a question. Yeah. Listen, I don't want to sign ignorant. Honestly, I don't. Where all that money coming from, man?
Starting point is 00:14:27 Where all that money coming from? Because when I watch games, the game don't never, the stand don't never be full. I'm not talking about the Dodgers. I'm talking about the Dodgers. The Dodgers every year have the most fans. They have, yeah, every year. Yeah, I'm just saying. Boy, look here. You ain't never been to Charmaine's Ravine.
Starting point is 00:14:42 Boy, you talking about a... Yeah. I wasn't specifically talking about the dollars. I'm just saying in general. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:52 I mean, they got two $700 million players. Two. And they got what you call a making 40 plus million. He got making 40 a year. Aaron Judge. He got making 40 a year. Aaron Judge.
Starting point is 00:15:08 He got nine years, 360. Oh, they got, I don't know. I don't know what they, tell me so we both know. Because if they got a money tree, I'm going to go chop it down. Man, I'm telling you, man. Listen, I was a highly sold out prospect coming out of high school man I was a five tooler and every time I look at them deals
Starting point is 00:15:29 sometimes I always say you know what I should have stuck with baseball I don't know if your tool was a lawnmower a bag hold a rake a pick a shovel I don't know what your tools were but they damn sure wouldn't
Starting point is 00:15:43 apply to baseball. I know that. I'm talking about baseball. Miami Beach Senior High. Man, look me up. Google me. You can Google me. You can Google me.

Yeah, they were trying, but my grandma said no. My grandma ain't play that. Well, you need to focus on school. She was tripping. That didn't work.
Starting point is 00:16:27 Oh, Joe. Joe Mixon won his appeal over the $25,000 fine he received following Houston's playoff loss to the Chiefs in the divisional round of the playoffs appeals officer Chris Palmer hey is that a Chris Palmer used to be offensive coordinator for the Jacks explained
Starting point is 00:16:43 in his letter to Mixon that the going through and hearing the process he found that mixon did not necessarily publicly criticize the officials during the appeals hearing you stated what you meant by your statement referring to the officials right as you know statements can be interpreted differently by every individual and it seems like you clearly understand the weight and the detriment of public criticism towards officials can be given how impactful your platform is as a player,
Starting point is 00:17:12 which I appreciate. I like it. That's dope. Now listen, this doesn't happen often, man. Nah. This doesn't happen often. When they take your money, they rarely give it back. They rarely give it back. They rarely give it back. So this is a big
Starting point is 00:17:28 win. This is a big win for Brother Mixon. You know what? I'm glad that the league office and the powers that be did it right by him in understanding he wasn't chastising and it wasn't about the refs or the officials in there officiating. So that's a good
Starting point is 00:17:44 thing. Okay. about the refs or the officials and their officiating. So that's a good thing. Ocho, Lamar Jackson is in his bones era. He shows off his new hairstyles. Emo Lamar. Hey,

A lot of times the big economic forces we hear about on the news show up in our lives in small ways. Three or four days a week, I would buy two cups of banana pudding. But the price has gone up, so now I only buy one. The demand curve in action. And that's just one of the things we'll be covering on Everybody's Business from Bloomberg Businessweek.
Starting point is 00:28:26 I'm Max Chavkin. And I'm Stacey Vanek-Smith. Every Friday, we will be diving into the biggest stories in business, taking a look at what's going on, why it matters, and how it shows up in our everyday lives.

Starting point is 00:28:57 So listen to Everybody's Business on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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
Starting point is 00:29:46 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,
Starting point is 00:30:18 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... I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn.
Starting point is 00:30:42 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,
Starting point is 00:31:13 Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. If you grew up like in the late 70s, early 80s, Big Lenny. Oh, he say... He talking about he cried. He said he cried.
Starting point is 00:31:35 And see, back then, Ocho, people don't... Like I said, you have to be my age. Is that the TV actually went off at midnight. Yeah. The TV just go fuzzy. There was no programming after midnight. So he said, I listened until the TV went off. Oh.

Starting point is 00:32:25 as both a wide receiver and a DB. Is the league split between him being a wide receiver and a corner Ocho? No, no. They're not split, but they are understanding. Listen, he's made it abundantly clear that he's going to do what he did at Colorado wherever he goes. And I think
Starting point is 00:32:41 the fact that they're allowing him to do both, that's a good thing. Because he gets to show off his skill set and what he can do at both positions. I like it.
Starting point is 00:32:55 I like it for him. I really do. I'm excited to see how it looks. I think it's easy to build a package around a wide receiver on a corner. Right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:33:08 So you play corner, you play your customary snaps, and then we come in a situation and we'll give you a package. We'll give you, you know, let's just say what you think, oh, Joe, 10, 15 plays on offense? Yeah, something like that.
Starting point is 00:33:19 You run about, what, 65, 70 plays in the game? 15, 10 or 15? It's best for you. On offense and then the rest on defense. Yeah. Absolutely. I like that.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Because you, hey, you walk with a fine line to try to give him, you know, 65 plays on defense and then another 30, 40 plays on offense. Yeah. Or you walk on a tight rope, Ocho. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, you know, the NFL plays a little harder, Ocho.
Starting point is 00:33:45 Yeah. They strain them hams and qu players a little harder Ocho they put them they strain them hams and quads a little bit more especially when you get them when you get them gangsters in front of you at receiver ball game hey listen

Starting point is 00:52:21 I would always you know if I had always been like this, Ocho. I would always, you know, if I had, I would like grandma, brother, my sister. Like I said, my sister. My sister hadn't had a job. My sister about to be 65. My sister ain't worked in 40 years. That's just who I am. But I got to be a little bit more judicial with my giving.
Starting point is 00:52:55 It's okay to say no, Ocho. Yeah. Because I'm not necessarily sure that everybody that what I do, I don't know necessarily they appreciate it. They feel like it's. That's what I'm supposed to do. Right. Man, you got money.
Starting point is 00:53:12 You got all that money. Yeah, but I'm working. I mean, I mean, you know, people got great ideas, man. I mean, if I if I had it, bro, you ain't never had no money. What you mean if you had it? Right. You do a real lot of business. I've been knowing you my whole life. But I will.

Starting point is 00:53:53 passion for giving back and supporting? Yeah. I thank dog for me. I would remember not having and I was wondering, I was, dog, for me, I would always, I remember, like, not having, and I was wondering, I was always like, man. And you see stories, Ocho,
Starting point is 00:54:10 kind of like we see now, somebody helping out, somebody buying your car, somebody buying groceries. I was like, man, I wish somebody would see us in a situation and give my grandma $100.
Starting point is 00:54:21 Or give my, like, buy my grandma something. I always, i was like damn nothing good ever not knowing no show right what god had had in store for my brother that one day we were going to have an abundance more than we could have ever imagined um it did i've always i've always been generous. Oh, Joe, I've always, it's like, if I had $5,
Starting point is 00:54:47 no, I had two 50. Cause my brother had two 50. I've always been like that. Yeah. Always, always. Um,
Starting point is 00:54:57 and I, maybe, maybe that's why I'm, maybe that's why I'm so blessed. Yeah. We in the same boat. We in the same boat. I don't, I don't, I don same boat. I don't mind helping people.
Starting point is 00:55:09 But like I said, Ocho, I just, like I said, sometimes I don't think people appreciate it. That's what, I just hate ungratefulness.

So listen to Everybody's Business on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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,
Starting point is 00:57:50 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,
Starting point is 00:58:34 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... I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn. In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra,
Starting point is 00:58:58 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. You know what? When they always ask all the time, I think that's where it comes from, where people, they expect it and they start not to appreciate what you do because
Starting point is 00:59:47 you do it so often and for so long. You do it so often and for so long to where they don't even value it anymore until it has removed itself and then you can see on the outside looking in what you were getting.
Starting point is 01:00:03 Yeah. But I've never forgotten people that helped me yeah saying like my high school coach man my high school coach every day he would break take me home from school because i had track practice and even when i wasn't you know he would take me home from basketball uh basketball practice and i remember like i was always the last one that he would drop off always man cold man we don't want to ride it man you got a pump sunshine out there with sharp state go come on drop us off coach so coach coach all would drop everybody off and then uh would take me home right every day after practice, get what you want.

Starting point is 01:06:36 mistake habit for hard work like he was saying just because you do something over and over don't mean you're working hard right so it's all it was it was a a combination you do something over and over, don't mean you working hard. Right. So it's, it was, it was a combination of things and values and hearing them talk. And as I got older, I can just, like I said, my grandfather died. I was eight.
