entering the NFL draft as a cornerback
and working out as a cornerback at the NFL Combine.
Some NFL scouts reportedly believe Hunter will come close to running
between 4-2 425 and 430
in the 40 many scouts also reportedly believe hunter should be the first overall draft pick
in the 2025 draft a heavy amount of nfl executive reporting will use hunter as a full-time corner
and a part-time receiver if he's on their roster is hunter the best unicorn ocho yeah everybody
tried that's all we've ever said yes sir all we've ever said ocho you and i and many that if he's on their roster, is Hunter the best unicorn? Ocho? Yeah. Everybody tried.
That's all we've ever said.
Yes, sir.
All we've ever said, Ocho,
you and I and many that listen to us,
he can play one full-time position,
but he'll play a part-time other position.
Right.
How you going to tell that man what he going to do?
Because I know the game.
If you played the game,
we understand how hard it is
to play one position.
Full game.
You're not playing two positions every single snap. You're just not.
I said, Bill, have packages
for him where he comes in
and he does what he does. What people need to understand,
I'm going to let you finish on, people need to understand
once you get to the next level,
I don't think people are taking into account
on how elite the talent is
once you hit the NFL level. They don't. people are taking into account on how elite the talent is. Once you hit the NFL level,
they don't week to week,
you know,
team to team.
You think about it.
Can you imagine you play for,
I'm trying to think of a good,
let's say you play for the Broncos and you got Patrick Sertain on one side,
and then you're going,
you're going to play receiver and take away some of Cortland Sutton snaps.
Like,
like you have to,
maybe I'm using a bad analogy and using the wrong team, you know?
I think the thing is, Ocho, because here's the thing.
Because, okay, he's going to go against, let's just say for the sake of argument, he goes
against Key Higgins, he got Jamar Chase.
Right.
He would always be against the number one.
So let's say he's covering Jamar Chase.
Okay.
Now you got your hands full.
Now you're going to go over there and play wide receiver?
I like it.
I like it.
Every snap?
Yeah.
All we said, look, I'm not saying that he can't do it,
but the greatest athlete, I saw two great athletes.
I saw Bo Jackson and I saw Ty.
Yeah.
And I'm old enough.
Like I said, I think I'm a year younger than Ty.
And I saw Ty. Yeah. And I'm old enough, like I said, I'm only, I think I'm a year younger than time. And I saw time
at his apex.
He played full-time corner
and he had packages
at wide receiver.
Which is why I think
that's how they're
going to use Travis.
That's all we've ever said.
But people got upset
with me,
talking about,
no, he's going to play
every snap at DB
and every snap at corner.
And I said,
no, he's not.
I don't,
you know,
it's funny,
I don't even think
an NFL exec or a team or
owner or a head coach would even allow that
no I'm not
I don't even think they would allow that
nah I get
I get diminishing returns
because okay
if you go
how you gonna give me 100% at DB and 100%
because look college is college
that's one thing.
We've seen great college players not be able to handle it in the NFL,
regardless of position.
Right.
Offensive line, defensive line, wide receiver, DB, quarterback,
whatever the case, running back, whatever the case may be.
And to play at that level.
Yeah.
Every game.
And you know what?
I never thought it was a
possibility. I always thought
he could be a full-time. And I told Ocho,
what did I tell you? I said, Ocho, he's going to be a DB.
And then
they'll put packages in it for him. Like, okay,
we come in with our nickel package
or our spread formation, Ocho.
You know, we go five wides, something
like that. You know, and when I sat
back and I thought about it, right? And I sit back and think about it there there's always there's always a special individual
there's always a person there's always a unicorn that changes the narrative and does some of the
things that we say they can't do where they're so good at what they do a team if going to the
right situation finds a way to utilize them a little bit more than often as opposed to what we're used to seeing, being that it's never been done before.
The fact that we've seen Travis do things at the collegiate level that have never been
done before because he's such a special, unique talent.
What happens if a team, he goes to the right situation, even as a full-time DB, and then
he plays more snaps than normal on the offensive side of the ball because he is that
special.
He is that dynamic with the ball in his hands.
Them legs.
Like you said,
those guys are really,
really good.
Yeah.
Even,
even the third and fourth receivers.
Yeah.
They were number one and two at the other place they were at.
Yeah.
Cause guess what?
A lot of those guys look,
and I think he's a phenomenal talent. Oh yeah. But a lot of the guys look and i think he's a phenomenal talent oh yeah but
a lot of the guys that he's going against at db a lot of guys that he's going against at wide
receiver they ain't gonna be in the nfl every guy that he go against on sunday guess where he's at
in the nfl yeah yeah yeah and boy look here when all i hear about is they talk about how good you
are oh you best believe i'm going to be on my best behavior
you will absolutely
get Shannon Sharpe's best game
yeah
oh yeah
listen
when it comes to competing
and practice
huh
you coming in as a number one
or that number two pick
I got to see why
oh you got to show me
I got to see why
you got to show me
matter of fact
I did the man broadcast
on Peacock Day.
And me and Trey, we was talking a little trash, right?
I told him, he's talking about, let's lace him up.
I said, okay, well, let's lace him up for that Heisman.
You get 10 routes.
If I get open one time, I get to hold your Heisman for a whole year.
Say no problem.
No problem.
I believe you can get up.
I believe you better get up on that.
I believe you better get up on that first route believe you better get up on it. I believe you better get up on that first round.
Because after that, your knees, your hips, your ankles,
they're going to be aching so bad.
My mind knows what to do.
Now, I don't know if my brain is going to register
and my body is going to operate like it's supposed to
like goddamn 20 years ago.
Oh, man, it was a good time i'm happy i'm happy for young
bull though man i am too i'm happy but i like i said if i think it's contingent do i believe he's
the best player in the draft absolutely absolutely but here's the thing uh-huh if i need a quarterback
i'm not taking the best player in the draft well listen number one the number one the number one
the team that is drafting number one and drafting number one because they don't have a quarterback at the helm.
And it's going to be Shador.
It's going to be Shador.
And number two is going to be Travis Hunter.
I'm telling you, they're going one and two.
They're going one and two unless something drastic happens.
But those are the two talents that you can't pass up because the number one team, whoever's picking first, they need a quarterback.
You're right.
They do.
It has to be the ideal situation.
So I'm either going to the Giants or the Raiders doing something
to hop up to number one and snatch him up.
And I'm not sure who has the number two pick.
Yeah, but I'm glad I got an opportunity to see it.
Like I said, I remember when Champ came out and Champ was a DB.
And Champ was an outstanding DB.
I mean, he's an All-American.
And I saw him on the offensive side of football.
Champ had like four or five touchdowns.
But we've never seen a guy be this good on the offensive side.
Even Woody, Charles Woodson.
Charles ran back punts.
He got a couple of plays on offense.
But Charles wasn't this good on offense.
Now, maybe they were a little bit more polished as a DB.
Yeah.
Because Champ footwork was second to none. wasn't this good on offense. Nah. Now, maybe they were a little bit more polished as a DB. Yeah. Mm-hmm.
Because Champ Footwork was second to none.
That, hey, my homeboy, hey, from Charlton County, hey, man,
he get in and out of that break, boy, hey, he had some feet on him.
Very nice.
Very nice.
And he had some feet on him.
Great, great ball skills.
But Trav, when you talk about the combination of offense and defense,
I haven't seen anything like it.
Now, I didn't see time in college.
You know, time was a DB.
Obviously, time won the Thorpe Award.
Time ran back punts.
I don't know if time played.
I had talked to him.
I mean, I ain't bothered because I know he getting ready for the bowl.
When they play the bowl game, the 28th?
When time to play wait who is who is colorado playing in
a bowl game again
byu oh oh yeah byu ain't no slouch boy
they play the 20th yeah okay okay the
28th okay they do play the 20th yeah
yeah yeah yeah you ain't no slouch they
nice
no no no no they not they nice that. That's going to be a good game.
Very good game.
Oh, Joe, the Falcons are expected to cut Kirk Cousins before the $10 million roster bonus due.
This will reportedly cancel the rest of the $180 million that included the $100 million guarantee.
Yeah.
Huge.
What you think?
Huge error?
But hold on.
How much of the money is he still going to have?
Don't he got...
Wow.
Hey, listen.
It canceled the last 80. So he's
still getting $100 million because he made $62
this year and he's going to make $38 next year.
Yeah. Hey, listen. They're going to
save face.
You can't save face.
And that was my, Ocho, we had this conversation.
I said, Ocho, it doesn't make sense.
Yeah.
I said, at best case scenario, you're going to get one year out of Cousins.
You better tell me he's not, there's only one quarterback that I'm paying $100 million,
and that's Patrick Mahomes.
Yeah.
If he ain't getting no $100 million, I damn sure ain't giving Kirk Cousins no $100 million.
You have to understand,
you know how the business works. You understand the
importance of having a quarterback at the position, even
though the quarterback, the said quarterback
in question right now has only
one playoff game. You know what you get
from him in the season.
What's that?
It's simple.
Oh, you cold? Yeah, I ain't cold. I the example. Oh, you cold?
Yeah, I ain't cold.
I'm cool.
Oh, okay, okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you understand.
Look at the paint.
Look at the paint.
Look at it.
You see the logo?
I got mine.
Don't worry about it.
You're going to see me in mine every day from now on,
whenever it's time to travel.
Yeah, but you understand why, you know,
teams pay for the quarterback position like that
because in order for your team to function, you got to have a quarterback.
You know what you got.
Well, the Falcons are malfunctioning, so what am I paying for?
Hey, listen.
It is the Michael Penix Jr. show from now on.
I know that.
Lucky lefty what's that what size is that double it looked like a robe almost it's big you know what i'm saying don't you okay okay i see you
yeah i can't i can't wait till I get home to mine.
Oh, this
meat right here cooked?
Hey, listen, people in the chat, you need to understand
when you order,
you know the cotton and you feel the material,
this ain't just any kind of cotton.
This is 100,000 sheep
Egyptian cotton.
This is the kind of cotton that the pharaoh slept on.
You hear me?
Tonight we get in some ish.
Deep cover on the incognito
tip. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, you look like
you look like Nino Brown.
Yeah, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know what time it is?
Something about that, hey.
What it do?
I about to, hey.
You better not be no up.
I about to run down.
Yeah, yeah.
But Ocho, when we talked about this, I said, Ocho, let's just say at the best case scenario, you get two years.
Yeah.
Worst case, you get one year.
Yeah.
Ocho, you about to pay this man $100 million.
Yeah. million. Yeah, I mean, listen, for us, you know, for the casual fan
not understanding,
you understand how teams work. You understand
how owners work and how
bad they need a quarterback.
I was about to make that kind of mistake on me.
Sometimes you have to overpay.
Now, that's the one...
Joe, you remember...
What happened?
Guys used to get paid and they're like,
oh, we made a mistake. I get paid, and they made a mistake.
I'm like, why can't nobody on the team make a mistake on me like that?
Give me $12 million.
Give me $14 million and send me on my damn way.
Hey, it's only one.
A hundred.
Oh, Joe.
Actually, and I said this on first tape.
I said they got President Trump as Time Magazine Person of the Year.
That's Kirk Cousins' agent.
Kirk Cousins' agent should be Time Magazine Person of the Year.
Yeah.
Do you know how many Cousins has made?
Oh, yeah.
He done made a great one.
For one playoff win?
Yeah.
He done made a good one.
I'm thinking about getting him.
But I love my team.
So I'm just playing
Josh and Marvin
but man
Lord have mercy
and listen you gotta understand he bet on himself twice
he bet on himself twice
and then it's all about
he got the franchise tag twice
and then he goes to Minnesota
they fully guaranteed the contract
for the first time in NFL history
they fully guaranteed and guess what the first time in NFL history. They fully guaranteed.
And guess what they did?
He played so well.
Hey, you know, Kirk can light you up.
You ain't going to win nothing, but he's going to light you up.
They fully guaranteed the next contract.
So you think about this.
Franchise tag, fully guaranteed.
Franchise tag, fully guaranteed.
He got three years, fully guaranteed.
He got another three years, fully guaranteed.
And then Burt Cullors got eight years of fully guaranteed money.
Yeah.
Yeah.
See?
And one thing about Kirk, too, you know, he's a child of God, too, now.
He's a child of God.
And one thing about it, your cup will runneth over if you continue to put that man at the forefront.
So regardless of how his play has been, whether it's stellar or whether it's been bad,
the most high has always had his back.
Babe, ain't fair.
Boy, who you telling?
What you looking for, partner?
Oh!
You know what I'm saying?
Man.
Now what I'm saying, it better not be that age. I ought to go get that pew-pew.
What you got there?
Pew-pew? Pew-pew! Pew-pew!
Let him
know.

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.

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.
Hey, Jamar Chase, the T-Higgins.
I just told him we're stuck together for life.
Now we're locked in for life.
Ocho should the Bengals do everything they possibly can
to re-sign Tee Higgins with the defense.
I just don't know how the defense is bad as it is, Ocho.
Yeah, I don't understand.
I love the idea, though.
I love Joe Burrow.
Joe, I love you.
Chase, I love you.
Tee, boy, you know how I feel about you, boy.
You know how I feel about you. But to get what you deserve, stay with me now. Listen to me, T. I know you're
going to see this. To get what you deserve, it's going to be hard. It's going to be hard. Y'all
need to understand the business aspect of things. T, you work your ass off, T, to get where you at,
to get to Clemson, to get to the NFL. All the hard work you've put in, you deserve to be paid as the receiver that you are.
You are a fucking number one receiver.
You hear me?
And we're one of the two teams, one of the few teams in the NFL that has been fortunate
to have two number one receivers.
Now it's time for you to be paid as such.
I would love to see you stay with the Bengals.
I would love it, me, as a Bengal.
But then I'm able to separate my stay with the bangles i would love it me as a bangle but then
i'm able to separate my love for the team and understanding what you deserve as it be real
artwork you put in this is this is me and you know how i am i'm bangles everything so i i just i i
love the idea though man i love joe and then what joe would be willing to do i'm not sure how they
can they can work contractually,
where they can make it happen.
Defensively, we need help.
Defensively, we need help.
We need pieces in certain places that will allow us to compete in that AFC North division.
Well, guys.
Because everybody else is getting big.
But you got, come on, man.
I understand you love the city.
You love your boys.
But me, personally, I want what's best for you and this is coming from
i'm i if i cut myself right now i bleed black and orange but i want you to get what you deserve
black because you don't put the words black you deserve it ain't nothing orange come again
just black ain't nothing orange Oh, Joe.
What's up?
Chase.
Talk to me, man.
Joe, you see your offense.
Even though y'all putting up these numbers, look at y'all losing.
You're not going to win.
Go back and look.
Even the greatest show of turf in 2001, they got beat.
Yeah.
The Broncos scored the most points in NFL history.
They got beat.
The Patriots,
they got beat.
The Washington football team,
before they became that,
you know,
the Indian name,
they got beat.
If you cannot stop somebody,
you can't score enough points to do it,
to win.
You just can't. can't the NFL history has
shown that
I just gave you
the four highest scoring teams in
NFL history
Minnesota Vikings
they got beat before they got to the Super Bowl
go back and look at the 83 Washington team
they got beat go back and look at the
2007 Patriots they got beat go back and look at the 83 Washington team they got beat go back and look at the 2007 Patriots they got beat
go back and look at the 2013 Broncos
they got beat
hey I want everybody to get their money
but I'm afraid T's gonna probably have to go somewhere to get
that money because if the Bengals
are serious they gotta upgrade their
defense so Joe it's really that simple
yeah
I hate it for T I hate it for yeah and i i hate it i hate it for
t i hate it for joe i hate it for chase i hate it for the fans of cincinnati um i mean everybody
loves everybody loves t hell i i love t i like him yes i love what he brings to that offense and
what he's able to do uh him and chase are completely different to me i again like i see i view them as
two number one receivers both of them that get the job done in a different way. Listen, it's multiple ways to skin a cat.
But at the end of the day,
they play the receiver position and they do it very well in two
totally different styles. Yeah, I just don't see how you can have two
a $40 million receiver and a $30 million receiver and a $55 million
quarterback and your defense is hemorrhaging.
Damn,
man.
I would love to see it though.
And I'm,
I'm listening.
I don't,
I don't know how to do the numbers.
I'm not good at that.
You know,
that's not something that I do do.
And just trying to see,
is it even possible?
Is it even feasible for them to do anything?
And just,
you can't,
you can't.
Now,
if this was Madden, we can make it anything. You can't. Now, if this was Madden,
we can make it work.
We can move some things around.
We can make it work, but in real life,
no understanding and knowing what
he deserves, man.
Don't do my dog like that.
Miles Garrett
wants to be a part of the Browns,
but he doesn't want to be a part of the Browns
if they're in a rebuild mode.
Garrett said, I'm not trying to rebuild.
I'm trying to win right now.
And I want that to be apparent when the season is over
and we have those discussions.
I want them to be able to illuminate,
illustrate that for me so that I can see something
I can see in the near future,
because that's all I want to do.
I want to stay loyal to the team that showed loyalty to me
and faith in me by drafting me.
But we have to do at the end of the day what's best for us.
Garrett, a five-time Pro Bowler, a three-time All-Pro,
has played in just three postseason games.
Two of them came in 2020 when the Browns earned their first playoff win since 1994
and again last season in a lopsided 45-14 loss to the Houston Texans.
Ocho, where are you on this?
Hey, I like the ultimatum.
I like the ultimatum.
Basically, that's all it is at this point.
If we're in a rebuilding stage, if we don't find a resolution at the quarterback position, please
do right by me so I can have
a chance to compete
at the playoffs and for
a Lombardi trophy. Allow me to go to
a team that's going to be in contention.
Where would that be? I should have my name
on the back. Why I ain't getting a name on the back of my shirt?
What?
I need my name on it
you remember when we was in school you used to have the name on the back of your jacket
back in the day yeah yeah yeah
back in the day yeah absolutely
you get your name stitched on there
yeah I want to get my name on the back
they might not
they might not recognize who I am if I don't got my name on it
nah they gonna know who you are
I understand They might not recognize who I am if I don't got my name on it. Nah, they don't know who you are.
I understand it's frustration, but let me ask you a question, Ocho.
Yes, sir. How close do you think the Bengals, the Browns are to being a legitimate team
that can ultimately reach the destination that Miles want them to get there?
You know what?
Can I be honest with you?
Yeah.
The Browns have a very good defense.
They have a very, very good defense.
You don't win with defense.
I know.
You win, but you better be able to put points on the board.
They're a quarterback away, and they've been a quarterback away for what?
The past 30, 40 years.
They are a quarterback away.
I'm not just talking
about any quarterback i'm talking about a cj stroud i'm talking about a jayden daniels you
know a patch well and you know patch my home coming along no time stop right there but uh
joe burrow or lamar jackson or josh allen away from competing you know for for a championship
or at least contending year in and year out at a playoff spot.
They're a quarterback away
and have been for years.
And if you look at what the Browns have been through,
for however long it's been,
when it's been trying to find a quarterback,
it lets you know how important that position is.
You can't start a franchise.
You can't build a team,
you know, in any way.
You can have pieces and great players.
You know, you have your Miles Garris.
You have your Denzel Ward.
But you'll never be able to compete in the AFC North in the playoffs.
Wait until you get a goddamn Lombardi trophy.
Unless you have a goddamn quarterback.
What happened?
What y'all laughing at?
She made me a name plate. Oh.
But that's,
and unfortunately,
the Browns might have to make a very difficult decision
and trade their best player
in order to rebuild
and get what they need, Ocho.
And listen,
if trade Myles Garrett
can get to the quarterback
of your future,
which I'm not sure how it would be because the quarterback of your future
would probably be in the draft.
Well, that means what you do is that you give up draft.
Somebody might have to give up two first rounders and a third rounder.
For Miles Garrett?
Absolutely, yes.
Because how old is Miles Garrett?
26, 27?
Yeah, he's a young'un. He's a young 27? Yeah, he's a young'un.
He's a young'un now.
He's a young'un.
But you got to keep shooting.
You got to keep shooting.
Shooting for that quarterback.
You got to keep shooting.
Because until you get one.
Somebody talking about Miles Garrett to the Ravens
and Kirk Cousins to the Browns.
Oh, hell no. I can tell you right now, they ain't doing that to you. Miles Garrett to the Ravens and Kirk Cousins to the Browns. Hell nah.
I can tell you right now, they ain't doing that deal.
They'll never.
The Ravens couldn't give up three first rounders to get Miles Garrett.
That ain't happening.
Hell nah.
He definitely ain't going into the division.
No.
Forget that for the Steelers, the Raven uh the bingles oh no absolutely not
huh okay don't you check this out the saints had an unusual way of preparing rookie quarterback
spencer rattler for the monday
night game against the packers in wisconsin where temperatures are expected to be 30 degrees or
lower and potential snow is expected at lambeau field right quarterbacks coach andy janko
genoco yeah took rattler and the rest of the saints quarterback into a walk-in freezer in the team's cafeteria to run through plays.
You know what?
I like that.
Jacko said he got the idea from watching Cool Runnings.
Yeah.
I remember Cool Runnings.
Cool Runnings was a good movie.
Ocho.
Yes, sir.
Let me ask you a question.
Talk to me now.
How long do you think they stayed in that freezer?
Not long enough to – not long enough to –
Thank you.
Not long enough. Thank you. long enough to be at the game not not long thank you you need
to be out there so you need to stay in that freezer for at least an hour and a half yeah
and then come back out there and then when you go through those plates say you know what hey
and go back in there for an hour so at least three hours yeah yeah i like the idea though
i like that i do too i love the idea because inside a freezer exactly what those temperatures
are going to feel like out there.
Exactly what they're going to feel like, you know?
Now on the sideline, you're going to have your jacket.
On the sideline, you're going to have your heated benches.
You're going to have your, what do you call the thing?
The warmer.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
The heated seat.
Oh, you're going to have the heater.
So you'll be fine.
But it's on that feel, on that feel of the play,
20 degrees and below, boy, it ain'll be fine. But it's on that field, on that field of play, 20 degrees and below,
boy, it ain't no joke.
Hey, Ojo, it used
to be so cold. You ever had them
games that were so cold that they had chicken
broth on the sideline?
Nah, you can't have no food on the sideline.
Chicken, just chicken.
Man, look here. Bet I was sloshing around.
I said, man, I gotta stop drinking.
Bet I was watered along like a bug.
Wait, y'all had chicken broth on the sideline for real?
Yeah.
How the hell you got it on the field?
The tea broken out there was cold.
You had to be high.
Well, shit, y'all might as well have some goddamn hot chocolate, too.
Well, what you eating?
Caramel corn. You need to be eating some candy corn. what you mean caramel corn
you need to be eating some candy corn
you know what
we talking about candy corn
and we talking about back licorice
but you know a candy
that's flown under the radar
that need his ass kicked

you know those orange peanuts you know those you know those those
orange peanuts you know what i'm talking about they real they real spongy what do they what do
they call i don't know they call they call circus peanuts yeah they about this big y'all know what
i'm talking about wait you talk about regular about regular peanuts when you crack the shell? No, no, they're candy.
Oh, I don't know.
They call, yeah,

They orange look like peanuts and they soft.
Now, they done been getting away
with a lot of,
while we beating up on candy corn,
we beating up on black licorice,
circus peanuts,

But y'all some bull jive too.
I just want you to know.
Yeah, I don't know yeah I don't know
I don't know what those are
well you get out here
you google it
and you'll know exactly
what I'm talking about
let me google it real quick
go ahead google it
circus peanut
but they done gone
they done gone
they done got
they done gone unscathed
for a long time
oh Joe yeah there you go them look like cheese puffs
oh hey honestly i ain't never seen them before
they're good and terrible i ain't never seen them before
circus yeah yeah i definitely i ain't never seen them but they done gone on the scale
while we beating up on candy corn and black licorice now don't get me wrong candy corn
and black licorice y'all some bull jive too but circus peanuts we gonna throw y'all in there
you're the top three yeah no
i don't know who came out with them.
And that bag,
that bag looked like it's old, too.
Like, that's back in the day.
They're old.
Oh, yeah.
See, that's why I don't know nothing about that.
I don't know nothing about that.
I don't know nothing about that.
That got to be the 70s, 80s.
Yeah, yes, sir.
Thoughts and prayers go out
to a major league or Hall of Famer Ricky Henderson,
who passed away today at the age of 65.
Ricky obliterated the record book, owning the all-time stolen base record of 14.06,
which is 468 more stolen bases than the all-time great of Lou Brock,
who held the record at 9.38 for a dozen years before Henderson passed him in 1991.
Henderson also holds the record for the most stolen bases in a single season of 130 in 1982,
the most times leading the league in steals with 12,
and the most consecutive years of leading the league in steals with seven.
And at 39 years of age in 1998,
Ricky Henderson became the oldest player in history to lead the American League in steals with seven and at 39 years of age in 1998 ricky henderson became the oldest player in history
to lead the american league in steals with 66 he's the greatest leadoff hitter in the history
of the game yeah um nobody could get on base and impact a game like ricky henderson oh yeah um
the stories that people tell about ricky uh so my thoughts and prayers go out to him, his family,
and all the Lumwoods and all those that are impacted by this loss.
Same.
I got an opportunity to see him play.
He played a lot of team.
I remember him with the A's, remember him with the Yankees,
but he was a phenomenal player, tremendous speed on the base pad.
But back then, that's when people actually stole bases.
You had Willie McGee.
You had all those guys, Tim Rock Range, base pad but back then that's when people actually stole bases uh you had willie mcgee you had uh all
those guys uh tim rock range guys that could really really run on the base pads and that was
a big thing uh get on base still second uh potentially still third and then a sacrifice
fly gets you the home plate right um but now everybody's just swinging for the fences get
the ball over but rest in in peace, Ricky, man.
You're going to be missed.
Unbelievable talent.
Obviously a Hall of Famer, but he is the greatest leadoff hitter,
and it's not close.
So y'all go ahead and debate with somebody else that actually care,
because I don't, but Ricky Henderson is the greatest player.
And that 1,400 steals, that ain't going to ever be broken.
That's never going to be broken, because they don't even steal. They don't even run like that.
I mean, think about it, the man who...
We're talking about Shohei, who
had 58 steals
or 60 steals.
Ricky had 130 steals.
That's crazy.
He had wheels, but those
guys back then, they could really, really run.
Yeah,
LA Dela Cruz for the cards. Yeah, Della Cruz, Ellie Della Cruz from the Cards.
Yeah, for the Reds.
The Cards, the Reds.
Yeah.
The Reds.
He's a big, I mean, he's huge in stealing bases like that,
but he got some wheels.
But Ricky, man, Ricky was unbelievable.

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.
All right, Ocho, now it's time for Q&A.
Q&A. Q&A.
Need all that.
Said, prayers to Tank Dale.
Second year in a row,
he got took out by a teammate after getting shot this offseason.
Yeah, that's tough.
That was a tough one, man.
It's always tough.
To obviously injuries
this late in the season, Ocho.
Yeah.
You got a chance for the play.
You're going to the playoffs.
Yeah.
That makes it even worse too, huh?
When you get injured,
you know, if anything,
you never want anybody to get injured.
But if it's going to happen,
let's let it happen early in the season.
So then you recovery time.
Give me an opportunity to come back.
Exactly.
So you're able to be ready
for training camp
or be ready for the start of the season, man.
So I hate this for Tank,
you know, two years in a row.
I'm not sure what the severity of the injury is man. So I hate this for Tank, you know, two years in a row. I'm not sure what the severity
of the injury is.
Did you hear anything yet?
I haven't heard anything.
Do we got any reports?
I mean,
yeah, but if you think about Ojo,
the amount of time that it took
to get him up
and how he left the field,
we know this.
We don't know where the injury is,
but we know he's not coming back this
year. Yeah.
He's in the hospital, Ocho.
That's crazy. That's not good.
Tank, I just want you to know we're praying for
you, bro. Wish you a speedy recovery.
We're having a
real good season and unfortunately, that's
happened to you so far. Just want you to know
the Nightcap family here, we're definitely thinking
about you and our thoughts some prayers go out to you
Andrew Carr
said Josh division
is his butt
same way y'all downplay Lamar
performance against the Giants keep that same
energy and Josh playing bomb
uh uh bomb
competition
um I'm trying to think
who made the playoff last year when Lamar won the MVP who went who uh in that division competition. I'm trying to think.
Who made the playoff last year when Lamar won the MVP?
Who went in that division?
So did Pittsburgh make the playoff last year?
Did Cleveland make the playoff last year?
Did Cincinnati make the playoff last year?
Angie, I'm just asking.
I mean, you feel free to jump back in the chat and let me know in that division
who made the playoff last year.
Because I'm interested to see.
I just...
You do realize that they don't, you know,
they play other teams too.
I mean, look.
Yes, I saw
and I know Baltimore
beat Buffalo.
But what do I do when you lose to the Raiders?
What am I supposed to do with that, Ocho?
That team got two wins.
Yeah.
And one of them came against y'all.
Yeah.
I'm just looking at it objectively.
Lamar had 25 touchdowns and five picks.
You said it's not about stats.
It's about wins.
Right.
Now when your guy has the stats, you say it's about stats.
It's not about wins.
I'm confused.
Yeah.
The goalposts always move the thing on who's at the topic of the
discussion.
But it's a hard argument, too.
It is.
We talk about two of the best.
The best at the position.
Well, we know it's a two-horse race, Ocho.
And I believe, look, I believe Josh
might have a slight lead.
This is Josh, this is Lamar.
He might have a slight lead.
Now, we only got a couple of links to go now.
And like we started, we started at the start line. We got to let them out, you know, let them out the gate. Oh, Joe. Yeah, right there. We're down the home stretch.
And as the guy would say, and down the stretch they come. So it's really that simple.
Look, Lamar is going to have an unbelievable season,
but if we're just going to take it on stats,
so what are we going to do about Joe Burrow?
Ooh.
Come on, now.
If we just base it on stats, what are we going to do about Joe? Well, then in that case, then they're going to bring up the record the team the team see i told you the goal the goalposts will move depending on who it
is said topic because we if we if we're basing everything off stats and numbers. Well, hell, Joe Burrow is running away with the goddamn
MVP.
Mm-hmm.
What's the bank? What? Four and nine? Four and eight?
I mean, what? No.
They won five games. Five, five?
No, they won five or six.
Five and...
I think they got six wins.
Because if they win out and the Broncos lose out,
they will make the playoffs.
I can tell you
this right now. We're
winning out. That's going to happen.
We're going to win out.
And when we make the playoffs,
we're going to be a team that nobody wants
to see.
I don't know with that defense. I think
if I'm an offense, I want to see that defense
because all I got to do is if
I get one offense, I want to see that defense. Because all I got to do is if I get one stop,
I feel very comfortable against that defense on Joe.
Especially if I get the ball into the red zone.
I feel real good.
Okay.
I like how you feel.
I like how you feel.
I'm just basing it on what's happened this year.
Now, I will concede this.
They have played better.
Yes.
Yes, they have.
Now, Joe didn't play particularly well last week. The defense played
outstanding. They should
have had two
scooped scores. Because remember
the guy fumbled the ball as he's crossing the goal
line. They got another pick six.
They picked them off four times. They
picked up, what, two fumbles.
And see, that's the scary part.
That's the scary part about the game of football.
You can play bad all season long, and all of a sudden you get to a playoff,
and it's one game.
You get hot.
You get hot at the right time, and that's what the defense has done.
Maybe, I'm just saying, maybe they're getting hot at the right time.
Now,
mess around now.
I done told you. Listen,
I'm not a conspiracy theorist.
I don't believe in fairy tales, but if that
goddamn Joe Burrow and Jamal Chase
and the rest of that team happen to get their ass
into the playoffs and shock the
world when they end up, I tell you,
with the greatest story of all time,
Joe Burrow
back in New Orleans.
That would be a great story.
I don't think it'll happen.
I know. It sounds good.
You just want to go there so you can go to the game.
I don't never go to the game no matter what.
Unless I have to.
If the Bengals
in there, you going.
The Bengals played the Rams.
I didn't go to that game.
I went home.
Well, you already knew what was going to happen.
Nah, nah, nah, nah.
I think that'd be a great story, though.
Great story.
All right, Ocho, King Javon.
Fucking Ocho says, my Bears are out of the playoff race.
We going to beat the Lions tomorrow.
You're not.
And hopefully ruin their chances
at the bye week. I'll be back tomorrow
night to say foot and ball
bear down.
You're not.
No.
Where did they play this game at?
Is this the game in Chicago or is it in
Detroit? It don't matter where it's at.
It don't matter where it's at.
Oh, it's in Chicago.
Yeah.
Because the Bears played them on Thanksgiving in Detroit.
So it's in Chicago.
The Lions put up 40.
The Lions put up 40 in back-to-back weeks.
I got them putting up maybe 35 tomorrow in the cold.
Okay.
No Montgomery.
They down like 16, 17 guys on defense on our Ocho.
How many?
About 16 or 17.
They struggle on that side of the ball.
Yeah.
Don't DG say, oh, because, oh, what did the NFL Institute of they make it take it rule?
If the team's defense scores on a pick six or scoop and score, the offense get the ball back.
That ain't fair.
Mess around with some of these offenses. Yes. Might not touch the ball. You might not get the ball back. That ain't fair. Mess around with some of these offenses, your ass
might not touch the ball. Yeah, you might not get the ball.
You might not get the ball no more. Next time you get
the ball, you down 24-0.
Imagine playing Mahomes.
You know, some of the elite
decision makers with the ball that don't really turn it
over a lot. They keep going
down. Make or take it. You king of field goals and they're getting
the ball right back.
Boy.
I don't want no part of that.
No, sir.
Did you say
what's up? Question for
do you have a favorite child
in terms of your dog?
Which one behaves the best?
And can we see them more?
Teddy's bad.
You would think.
Teddy head is the hardest.
Titan is the scariest, but he listens the best, especially to me.
Titus will listen,
but you got to like,
almost plead with him.
I don't know.
It's just something about small dogs.
They got a personality of their own.
And he and Titus,
they get into it.
And Titus be trying to sleep.
And then,
then Teddy will go stand on his head.
He'll start biting his ears
okay titus try to move him away he you know he take his party move him out the way and then
titus will get tired of him and then he'll like actually he'll he'll step on him that drives teddy
crazy so now teddy gotta fight oh he gotta growl he got yeah oh yeah he all in now and he mad
i'm like bro if you left him alone he was asleep he wasn't
bothering you but teddy teddy teddy is like i can't carry titus titus big ass titus wearing
like 177 pounds so but he wanted to stand on me because he see teddy in the bed he want to get in
the bed he see me carry teddy he think i can carry him. I can't carry you, bro.
I cannot.
But Teddy is the one that is the
baddest, behaves the least
and gets the most attention.
So
T.S. Car Wash and Detail

Right.
And so she was talking, you know, she's like, I love myself some Falcons.
She said, my name is Pat, blah, blah, blah.
But it didn't dominate.
I didn't know who she was.
And so she's got a Louis Vuitton purse, but she got a Gucci backpack.
So we getting off the plane.
I said, next time you might want to match your accessories.
She said, well, next time you might want to kiss my ass and buy it for me.
Yeah.
And she, and she told me just like that, but I don't know if you talking about,

Made for This Mountain
is a podcast that exists to empower
listeners to rise above their struggles,
break free from the chains of trauma,
and silence the negative voices that
have kept them small. Through raw
conversations, real stories, and actionable
guidance, you can learn to face
the mountain that is in front of you.
You will never be able to change or grow through the thing
that you refuse to identify. The thing that you refuse to say, hey, this is my mountain. This is
the struggle. This is the thing that's in front of me. You can't make that mountain move without
actually diving into that. May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a time to conquer the things
that once felt impossible and step boldly into the best version of yourself to awaken the
unstoppable strength that's inside of us all.
So tune into the podcast,
focus on your emotional well-being and climb your personal mountain.
Because it's impossible for you
to be the most authentic you.
It's impossible for you to love you fully
if all you're doing is living to please people.
Your mountain is that.
Listen to Made for This Mountain
on the iHeartRadio app, Apple 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 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.
You shouted out my Aunt Mo live stream. Yes yes she's still shuffling it up in the kitchen
how bad you missed that chicken and yellow rice because we get it we can get it to you
ah man as a matter of fact when we sent that thing out um kim um alexander she was at the show in Dallas.
Me and her husband, rest his soul, Eli.
And Eli was there, and April
Crockett, they remember.
Oh, Joe, when I say that poor child can cook,
and she, but see the thing is,
there's a difference between somebody that can cook
and then somebody that loves to cook.
She loved to cook.
So, I'm talking about people like she cooks.
Every day, Mo cooks fresh.
I'm talking about chicken and rice, fried chicken, mac and cheese.
I'm talking about she's cooking because a lot of times the guys were going over there.
We're going over there to eat.
So she's cooking for 10, 12 people, 14 people.
Yeah.
Lord, have mercy.
It's different.
Hey, Malik, where Mo at?
Tell Mo I said hello.
And tell him send some chicken and rice.
And mac and cheese.
And that cake.
Tell him send that pound cake too.
If she know how to bake,
I would love a yellow cake with chocolate ice
and that's something that I love.
That's something.
Them ladies going to get the cake for me.
They're going to get you a cake.
Okay, there it is.
Talk to me now.
I'm right there in Miami.
I'm not hard to find.
If you ever come to Miami, all you got to do is ask somebody there,
point you in the right direction of where I'm at.

But happy birthday, bro.
Ravens are back in the playoffs.
That's a great birthday gift

I know the only thing that'll make you guys even happier
than that would be for the Ravens to get to and win the Super Bowl
because I know what it was like when we won the first one.
I can imagine what it was like when they run the second one
because that was Ray's last game.
And they've been yearning for that ever since, what was that, 2012?
Yeah.
2012, they won.
They beat the 49ers.
So congratulations, bro.
Happy birthday.
Congratulations on the Ravens making the playoffs. 2012, they won. They beat the 49ers. Congratulations, bro. Happy birthday.

And Travis Hunter is leaning toward entering the draft as a cornerback,
working out as a cornerback,
but he's told teams he would like to play on both sides of the football.
And what the indications are, they, he'd be a full-time corner,
and they would have packages that would allow him to play
on the offensive side of the football.
The Falcons are expected to Kirk Cousins before the $10 million roster bonus.

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.
