In the fall of 1986,

Loose Mobile is now a legit nationwide 5G network.
So I have to take a break from all the jokes here for just a second and put my serious voice on because I would never ever joke about a 5G network that has invested billions
in building 5G towers across the country. Not even once. Not even if Mr. Boost Mobile himself
asked me to. There's nothing funny about it. Boost Mobile is now a legit nationwide 5G network and
also provide coverage across 99% of America. Seriously, visit BoostMobile.com or your nearest Boost Mobile store location to learn more.
Boost Mobile network together with our roaming partners covers 99% of the U.S. population.
5G speed not available in all areas. Man, amid speculation that the Pittsburgh Steelers
could be a potential landing spot for veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers,
at least one player isn't interested in the service.
Steelers safety Deshaun Elliott commented on an Instagram post
and made it clear that he doesn't want Rogers in Pittsburgh,
Pittsburgh's new quarterback in 2025,
writing, leave his ass at the retirement home.
I mean, listen, when you pull the stuff you pulled during the offseason,
when you pull the stuff you pulled while you were there,
you know, players see that.
They don't want no part of that.
Did you see what
was being reported the stipulations
that they gave him in order to come back to Green Bay
you see those stipulations
no more Pat McAfee
many camps
be here
locked in
wow locked in wow
wow
the Jets told Aaron Rodgers
he couldn't appear on the Pat McAfee show anymore
if he wanted to be the net
if he wanted to be with the Jets
next season per Diana Rossini
she plugged in
she like Jane Slater at the Cowboys.
She liked Mary Kay Cabot with the Browns.
When they speak, I really listen.
I perk up to what they say.
I was told that when Rodgers had his conversation,
when Jess had the conversation with Aaron Rodgers
about what the future would look like,
if you're going to be a part of this team,
you're going to attend all of training camp.
You're not going to do the Pat McAfee interviews anymore.
They had a conversation with him.
If you're going to stay here, here's how we want it to be.
So this is me.
It's Aaron Glenn getting control back.
I love it.
I like it too.
I like it too.
I like it too.
Now listen, if the Pat McAfee show was conducive to the Jets and helping in any way with winning,
if it wasn't in the scene in the negative light
matter of fact if you were performing the way you should be performing if you were the Aaron
Rodgers of old you can go you can go talk to goddamn Glenn Beck for all I care you can talk
to CNN if you were playing on Sundays and being productive and being the Aaron Rodgers of old
I wouldn't care who you talk to you could be at the Playboy Mansion on your off day,
but it just wasn't right.
You're losing on the field.
You're playing bad on the field,
and you're doing a show that's causing controversy and conflict,
creating chaos,
and then your performance isn't where it should be.
Yeah, it's just tough, Ocho.
It's tough when you play that position,
and guys see you doing...
Because normally the quarterback's locked in.
Oh yeah, always.
Normally. Especially those
level quarterbacks. And Aaron Rodgers
was that level of quarterback. He was a
Peyton Manning. He was a Tom Brady.
He was that...
He was that level of quarterback.
And normally those
quarterbacks
is a singular focus.
And they're there at minicamp.
No distractions.
None.
None.
And then you can't create a distraction
and then get mad when people talk about
said distraction.
Distraction, yeah.
And you egg it on.
I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Wait a minute.
You wrecked the car and then you made the people stop and looking at you as the car turned over side the road.
You did it.
That's a good one.
I like that.
I like that.
That's what I didn't understand about him.
He talk about we got to block out the noise.
But it's him beating on the bucket in the hallway.
Right.
He creating the noise, but it's him beating on the bucket in the hallway. He creating the noise
that we hear.
What didn't he see about that?
But see,
four-time
MVP, you know, you get seduced
by your own success, and so you
was like, hey, damn what's in the best
interest of the team, what's in the best
interest of me?
Most top-tier quarterbacks don't think
like that.
They don't.
All I can
say is the quarterbacks of his era.
You think Brady thought like that?
Oh, no. You thought Manning thought like that?
Absolutely not. Breeze,
you look at Mahomes now.
Every week, Ocho, I can see, you know, hey, as a favor to you, payback.
I like you.
I like what you stand for, bro.
I'm going to come on your show once.
But every week?
Right.
That's a tough one.
That's a real tough one. That's a, that's a, that's a, that's a,
that's a real tough one.
And I'm telling you,
guys look at stuff like that.
Yeah.
Oh, they watching.
They're watching.
Go look,
listen to when,
when,
when Brady went to Tampa.
What I did in New England,
ain't got anything to do with what I'm about to do in Tampa.
Peyton Manning said what I did
in Indy, but that's not
how he thought. He's like, hey,
what did he say at the end of the season?
If my resume isn't
good enough,
he said it. Now, if it's a lie,
he said it. Y'all heard him.
The thing that I love so much
about sports
is that you must update that resume on a weekly basis.
He's standing on what I've already done
should be enough to allow me to be going
any situation I want to and do it how I want to.
Jesse, nah, we cool.
Moving forward, it's's gonna be our way
everyone way to do things
my way or trail way
and I think trail way and Greyhound merged didn't it
so they were one bus up out of town
just go all in
so you know what
my last year,
I'm about to be,
what are you,
about to be 41?
If he's not already 41,
I'm going to see what I got
one last year.
A lot,
all of,
I'm going to block
everything out.
I ain't really,
you know,
I ain't going to be on
none of the bull jive
about the government
doing this
and US foals
and ivermectin
and whatever the case may be.
All I'm thinking about
is all football.
Because I promise you,
you're closer to the end
than the beginning.
Promise you that.
Yeah.
And for a guy
to have that many MVPs
and has only been
to one Super Bowl,
you can make a case that,
hey,
with two,
three Super Bowls on show,
now we'd have been having a conversation,
him,
he'd have go,
he'd have right there with Roger.
I mean,
with Brady.
Four MVPs?
Yeah.
Four.
Yeah.
As I be,
look,
I think that's the thing
that I respect most
about like the great
how bought in they are
and I use it like
in football I term
you look at a Brady
basketball you look at
a LeBron
you look at a Kobe
right
that's it
yeah
that is it
all the great grades were different.
Not only did they were,
they were locked in
not only for themselves,
but they led by example
for everybody else.
And they set the standard.
They set the standard.
This is how you want to be great.
If you want to be great,
you don't have to be me,
but you can do the things I do.
If you fall short,
you still going to fall
somewhere under the line of greatness. Discipl don't come down to discipline no that's in everything
you do you don't even have to be sports you don't even have to be sports just in life in general
you will get the results if you lock in that you have any small amount of discipline. That's all it takes.
And you know,
there's got to be something wrong too.
They get up and do the same thing over and over and over and over
and over until it becomes a habit.
Greatness is boring.
Man, you got it.
Greatness is boring.
It's a monotonous trait because you're doing
the same thing over and over hoping for the same result.
What do you think Brady did in the offseason? You hear him tell the story It's a monotonous trait because you're doing the same thing over and over, hoping for the same result. Yeah.
What do you think Brady did in the offseason?
Yeah. You hear him tell the story about when he played Kevin Sitton at Super Bowl?
Yeah.
He was so locked in, he knew what they were going to do
before they knew what they were going to do?
Yeah.
How much film do you think, Peyton, offseason?
You hear Ray Lewis say, well, if I want to beat Peyton,
if I want to beat Tom,
I got to watch as much film as they watch.
I got to be as locked in as they are.
I think the thing is that
when you hear people talk about those guys,
one of the first things outside of how great they were
is leadership.
What are you talking about, Tom is leadership what are you talking about
Tyler Briggs
what are you talking about
leadership
talk about Ray Lewis
talk about might be
the greatest team sport
leader in the history
right
you hear Peyton
you hear certain guys
that that word
just automatically
rolls off people's tongues
right
Rogers is 41
but if I was him
and I was going to come back
I'm going all in
I'm going to empty the, I'm going all in.
I'm going to empty the tank.
I'm going to empty the tank.
Got one more year.
I got nine months.
And then after that, I got the rest of my life to do whatever I want.
Hey, P-Bat.
You got me a job.
Hey, P-Bat.
You got me a job.
Hey.
Because I'm about to come.
I'm about to come every Tuesday.
I'm about to be on your show.
You can do what you can do is you can do as many shows as you want to.
You go as many,
many dark retreats as you want to.
But if you haven't done it, if you haven't done it in this long,
the chance is going to now out the blue.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It ain't.
Joe Burrow is projected to have a $46.3 million cap
in 2025, Joe.
The Bengals are projected to have
almost $46 million in cap space.
But that is before signing the necessary players
to start the season in addition
to the incoming draft class.
Burrow also referenced the Eagles
who've been able to sign multiple players
to veteran deals despite also
giving quarterback Jalen Hurts a
huge contract. That puts
him among the league's highest-paid players.
The Cincinnati quarterback
praised
the way Philly treated
the salary cap
to build a championship
caliber team
the Eagles are paying
everybody
that seems like the way
whatever they're doing
was this the best
was this a shot
at the Bengals organization
I wouldn't say
it's a shot
at the Bengals organization
I say it's a
it's a message to the organization on look how they did things,
look how they're doing things.
They're able to have a team like that, have everybody together,
have everybody happy, and still able to function and compete for a title.
I think we need to take, like I say it all the time,
we are a copycat league.
We copy what they're doing.
We need to copy what they're doing
and keep our band together,
one band,
one sound,
so we can compete
the same goddamn way.
But you're going to have to
let some people go.
You see a luxurious need,
he had to go.
You see gay,
he had to go.
You see Wiley,
he ended up leaving.
You know what I'm saying?
Don't you?
I mean,
you can't,
hey, you try
to keep the core. Think about it. They traded
Tyreek.
They're probably gonna lose
Trey Smith. Yeah.
You can't keep
everybody. Right.
Okay, the core.
Can we keep
Mahomes, obviously, is
non-negotiable.
We kept Trav. Right. We kept Trav. We kept Chris Jones.
We drafted well.
We got McDuffie.
Carloptus.
Hit a couple in free agency.
But the problem is
that Jamar Chase is not giving you
a discount.
We know that.
You made
him play it out, and the
guy hit the triple crown. He got the triple
crown.
You're going to have to pay him $40 million.
Yeah.
Well, you could have had him.
We could have had him.
You could have paid him $35,000, $36,000.
But now he's going to want 40 plus.
Yeah, you want to.
Yeah, then we chose to play hardball.
And T. Higgins.
Yeah.
But if you notice, look what they did to Devontae.
Before his contract came up, they redid it.
And they got him done on purpose.
See?
They knew what they was doing.
Now, they're probably not going to be able to sign Josh Sweat.
He has some interesting comments.
I don't know if you saw what he said.
I don't know what we're talking about.
Hopefully, we do.
But look, they're doing a great job.
They got some guys.
You look at DeJuan and you got Mitchell.
They on rookie deals.aylen carter rookie deal
nicole b dean rookie deal nolan smith jr rookie deal yeah jordan davis rookie deal see they got
a good chance but they got a good chance of running back boy and offensive line got him
locked up saquon got him locked up jalen Hurts he's also locked up
they looking good
look real good
look real good
but that's what you have to do you have to have guys
that hey
they want to be there want to get locked in
yeah I'm
a firm believer I'm a firm believer.
I'm a firm believer that the Eagles are built.
They got another two years, two or three years.
Oh, yeah.
They got another two or three years.
Jalen Carter, hey, Jalen Carter's going to get a big contract.
He's a preeminent D tackle in football.
Yeah.
Nolan Smith, he might be undersized,
but he was destroying those pulling guards.
I mean, he can't win more than 230.
But boy, boy, he was a headache.
Mm-hmm.
Because I, ooh, he was dropping the ham on folks.
But look, Joe's like, bro bro almost 5,000 yards is fine
43 touchdowns is fine
bro I'm home with stats like this
yeah
we got a triple crown winner
that's home
that cannot happen again
absolutely
absolutely not
and then I'm sure it't gonna happen on my watch.
So,
if they can get it,
if they can get it,
you know,
rework his contract,
get Chase,
but if I'm Chase,
I can't do the first one.
Now, hey, Joe,
the second one,
hey,
but I'm finna take a big-ass bite of this apple.
Yeah.
I'm gonna take a big bite of this apple Ocho
and
so I just got a feeling
Ocho
somebody gonna throw
so much money
football players
don't turn down
40 million
baseball players
don't turn down
40 million
basketball players
turn that down
like hey
I wanna be in a better
situation
I wanna be such and such
yada yada yada
not football
because the money
is not guaranteed
right
I can't turn down
for 49
what
what
and then I don't get
no lifetime health benefits
right
and you know
a medical expenses
eat up
yours or a family member wife kids, kids, eat up a savings.
Yes, it does.
Retirement.
Oh, no, I got to get all that, Ocho.
I got to get every last dime that they promised me.
I'm sorry.
Because T was a second-round pig, Ocho.
Yeah.
So he didn't get that first down, you know, that $ pick, Ocho. Yeah. So he ain't get that. He ain't get that first down,
you know,
that 15,
$20 million guarantee.
It's not.
I say,
I said it before and I say it again.
He needs and deserves every dime.
Every dime.

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

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, you'll hear all the unbelievable
details of a scandal that captivated the nation

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.
Ocho, the Cincinnati Bengals reportedly could be on the verge of losing
one of their top defensive players.
A.M. Rappaport reported that Jermaine Pratt,
who's ending the final year of his contract, requested to be traded.
Okay.
Pratt signed a three-year extension with the Bengals in 23-3
and is set to make $5.6 million in 2025
after leading the team with 143 tackles this past season.
He also added six pass defended, two interceptions,
two forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries.
Rappaport noted that Pratt is closer to former Bengals
defensive coordinator
Lou Amarillo
and Arumo
and Arumo
who was fired
after the 2024 season
Ocho
given how poorly
he was a bright spot
if you could say
such a thing
Ocho considering how
poorly your defense played
especially the first
three quarters of the season
he and Trey Hendrickson
yeah
Ocho ain't looking good for the home team I mean I'm gonna say I'm gonna say Defense played especially the first three quarters of the season. He and Trey Hendrickson. Yeah.
Oh, Joe, ain't looking good for the home team, though.
I mean, I wouldn't say it's not looking good.
Obviously, Jermaine Pratt is upset.
I'm not sure what he's upset about.
Obviously, defense.
5.3 million.
Okay.
Oh, he won the pay raise, huh?
Yes. Yeah, I can tell you.
I can tell you it ain't coming from there.
I can tell you that. That's why he requested Yes. Yeah, I can tell you. I can tell you it ain't coming from there. I can tell you that.
That's why you requested to be traded.
I can tell you that.
Listen, if it was about the money, Pratt, you know, I love you, baby.
I love you.
I love you like a brother, you know.
Business is business.
And I understand.
I totally understand where you're coming from.
So, totally understand.
So, you believe Brother Pratt's going to move on, huh?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What are y'all going to do about Trey Hendrickson?
Hey, I got a question for you now.
You got Tee Higgins that's up.
You know, we got Bengals fans think Tee's coming back.
You got Jamar Chase.
Obviously, you know, you have Joe eating up a huge
chunk of the cap.
We can't pay everybody.
No.
We can't pay everybody.
Nope.
I would love it. This is not
Madden Ultimate Team.
This is not Madden Ultimate Team. You can't have
everybody can't get a piece of the pie.
You know?
I don't know how it's going to play out.
I don't know how it's going to work out.
I would love for the band to come back together,
all of them,
and run it back the same way.
That's just not the nature of this business
or the way it works.
I don't even have an idea
what it's going to look like come next season. I don't. have an idea what it's going to look like
come next season.
I don't.
I know what I wish
it would look like,
but I know from a business standpoint
and a former player
that played the game
for a very long time,
I know it's impossible as well,
no matter what fans may think.
I don't know.
But Pratt,
Pratt requesting a trade,
he understands.
He knows the business.
He knows what's going to happen.
Because guess what, Ocho?
There's going to be no money for me.
Had he not performed well, they'd have asked him to take a pay cut or they'd have cut him.
Come on, now.
So I'm going to beat y'all to the point.
Talk to me nice, now.
I'm going to go tell you real.
Let's just say for the sake of argument he signed that same contract extension
instead of having 143
tackles he had 83
tackles
talk to me nice now
you'll keep it stacked with y'all
yeah I'm picking up what you're putting down
see
that's what
rubs me with the team.
Oh, you signed a contract.
Okay.
I signed that same contract when y'all released me.
And I
still got two or three years on it.
I signed a contract, though.
Oh, it only
matters if I sign a contract
if I want to reduce that contract.
But when y'all want to move in a different direction,
it don't matter if I signed it.
Uh-uh.
Gotcha.
Okay.
Cool.
It's cool when y'all do it.
It's a problem when I do it.
Yeah.
I like to call it,
the game is the game.
The better you learn to play it,
the better off you'll be.
Oh, Joe.
Yo.
The Eagles defensive end,
Josh Sweat,
had one of the all-time
best defensive performers
in Super Bowl history.
One and a half sacks.
He did not become
the 11th defensive player
of the year,
including co-defensive player
of the year, Harvey Martin and Randy White when they beat the Defensive Player of the Year, including co-Defensive Player of the Year, Harvey Martin,
and Randy White when they beat the Brakes out of the Broncos in the Superdome.
Jalen Hurts instead won that award for the 34th time.
A quarterback has been the MVP in 59 Super Bowls.
The NFL no longer announces the places of the other finishes,
so it is unknown if Sweat even finished second
I should have had it
Sweat said
I could have had it
it's all good though
Ocho you like him saying this?
I mean
it's cool
I understand it
he had a hell of a performance
he was a big reason
big part
of their success
defensively.
So I totally get it.
But, you know, in the grand scheme of things,
the quarterback had one hell of a game,
and he's the reason why they were able to win that game.
He's the reason why they were able to win that game.
Obviously, defensively, they gave Mahomes hell.
They beat that offensive lineup so bad, I felt bad.
I felt bad for Mahomes, you know, around that second, second, second quarter,
third quarter, the way he just kept getting hit.
The relentless pressure all game, not allowing him to breathe,
supplicating him the entire time.
No, I've been very few times I've seen Mahomes with happy feet, in the pocket, uncomfortable,
not being able to drop back,
not being able to go through his reads,
not being able to go through his progressions.
Like they did that one hell of a job.
But Jalen Hurts, he deserved that MVP.
He did did I just
bro you won
you won the Super Bowl
you won the Super Bowl
and you complaining about
see
you complaining about
an individual award
yeah I mean
listen he played well
now he wouldn't know
goddamn Lawrence Taylor
type performance now let's not go there no it was a good I mean what did he have two and a half s mean he played well now he wasn't no goddamn Lawrence Taylor type performance now
let's not go there
no it was a good
I mean what do you have
two and a half sacks
he played
Ocho
he played really well
he did
but I'm like
bro
now
it's too soon
too soon
maybe 10 years from now
y'all sitting on the porch
man y'all know
I should have won
I should have been
Super Bowl MVP
look at that
I say that then
not now Ocho yeah but even still you're not winning that award over a quarterback Man, y'all know I should have won. I should have been Super Bowl MVP. Look at that. I say that then.
Not now, Ocho.
Yeah, but even still, you're not winning that award over a quarterback.
Especially not when they played that well.
Yeah, I guess he's like, I ain't coming back,
so I'm going to say anything to make sure I don't come back, Ocho.
Coach GM Chris Ballard says Anthony Richardson has him proving that he can play a full 17-game season
and that the team needs to add another quarterback
to compete with him.
Ocho, you like what the GM said?
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Listen, I like Chris Ballard.
Light a fire up on the young bull.
Light a fire up on him.
I like him without saying that obviously you
taking a knee taking yourself out the game you already know what you need to do i hope anthony
richardson doesn't take this to heart i hope he doesn't take it at disrespect this is merely just
a challenge let me go and show you that i can play a full 17 game season without getting injured let
me show you i'm the quarterback of the future let me show you i'm your franchise quarterback let me please do me a favor and bring somebody
in to compete for my job watch me raise my level of play i have no problem with competition
at all now this is me speaking i like it i love it i'm not sure how he's going to react to it
normally when you have a veteran quarterback
you don't want to bring in
another presence
that can challenge them
a la Ben Roethlisberger
a la Aaron Rodgers
getting upset
with Jordan Love coming in
a la
Brett Favre getting upset
when Aaron Rodgers came in
but as a young bull
as a young pup
this is a challenge
you have to take that challenge
and take that bull
you brought it on yourself.
He brought this on himself.
Yeah, I understand.
I understand.
And he understands.
I hope he understands it.
But I like the challenge.
I wish he would.
Who do you want?
Bring him in.
They bringing a challenger
for Jayden Daniels?
What?
They bringing a challenger
for Joe Bo Nix?
Boy, he ain't finna find...
What about Caleb Williams?
He ain't finna find... He ain't finna find... What about Caleb Williams? He ain't finna find...
He ain't finna find none.
CJ Stroud?
He ain't finna find none.
Okay, I was just checking.
Let me tell you something.
So he brought it on himself.
Hold on.
Yeah, he brought it on himself,
but let me tell you something.
Them boys like he just named,
boy, they ain't falling off the tree like that.
Them apples not falling off the tree like that.
But isn't that what Anthony Richardson was supposed to be?
Oh, he is.
He ain't get it together.
Don't do him like that.
Don't do him like that.
I understand what you're saying.
There are certain things he shouldn't be doing.
There are certain things he shouldn't have done.
He did bring this to them.
That's my only point.
But GM, you know better.
You know what you got on your hands.
And maybe this is your way of getting them in line.
Maybe this is your way of getting the best out of them.
I don't have no problem with it at all.
Challenge me.
But of all the guys, he had the most question marks coming out, Ocho.
Now, he's a physical specimen.
Yeah.
Rocket arm, can run through tackles, can run over people.
Run, yeah.
I think he needs to redefine some,
refine some of that,
that touch.
Because he throws everything
like you're trying to throw it
through the eye of a hurricane.
Throws a good deep ball.
I mean, he needs some touch.
But he had the most
red flags when it came,
not his behavior, but just his own field
play right right and so hopefully he's like you know what i'm gonna show these yeah yeah repetition
i'm gonna show them what i what you drafted me the with the number four pick overall
for a reason i'm gonna going to show you why.
We're petition, baby.
Come in in great shape.
Study.
Hey, I'll devote two hours a day.
I'll go back and look at every game.
Every game we play, I devote two hours a day to that in the offseason.
And I'm going to look at some of the other quarterbacks.
Hey, coach, who do you think I should look at?
Let me look at some of Brady's tape. Let me look at some of Peyton Manning's tape. Let me look at some of the other quarterbacks. Hey, Coach, who do you think I should look at? Let me look at some of Brady's tape.
Let me look at some of Peyton Manning's tape.
Let me look at some of Breeze's tape.
Let me look at some of Roethlisberger's tape.
You know, I think it would be more conducive for him,
based on his style of play,
to watch players that were more like him.
Watching players tape that don't play like you,
I don't think it does.
You know, Justin. Who plays like him? watching players tape that don't play like you, I don't think it does you no justice.
I don't think I don't.
Who plays like him?
Number one.
Oh, you were going to say Lamar?
You forgot him?
O'Kam?
Yeah, man.
O'Kam.
Okay.
Yeah, I like that.
But you know what?
I'm just, I'm know what? I'm studying.
What I'm studying, Ocho, is what they see and how so quickly they recognize and get the ball out.
I got you.
I got you.
I ain't looking at no footwork.
Hell no.
He ain't got no footwork like that.
But I'm just looking to see how fast they can process information and get rid of the football.
Yes, sir.
I got you.
Recognize it and react. Yes, sir. I got you. Recognize it and react.
Yes, sir.
I got you.
Bill's running back,
Jane Cook.
Excuse me.
Bill's running back,
Jane Cook,
wants an extension worth
at least $15 million per season.
Damn.
As a running back?
Well, hold on.
That puts him up in the upper echelon now with McCaffrey,
with the Derrick Henrys, with the Saquon Barkleys.
Well, Saquon is about 13 and a half.
Christian McCaffrey, I think, is about 16.
What is Derrick Henry?
Derrick Henry is eight.
Ooh, that's low.
Jonathan Taylor is another one.
I think he makes like 12, 13.
And James Cook won 15?
That what he said.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
What's up, buddy?
You just could not stay out, huh?
What'd they do, twin?
We gonna get our show?
You hear me?
You want to do a show with Ocho?
What's it gonna be called?
What's my pay? Are you paying me a show with Ocho? What's it going to be called? What's my pay?
Are you paying me a farmer's dog or what?
I just need to know what you're paying me.
Not no tennis balls because I don't play
no fetch.
I don't want no toys.
Oh, yellow 2.0.
You should be in the bed.
Why are you still up at 12 o'clock?
I mean, at 10 o'clock.
Yeah.
Ooh.
Ocho, 15?
That's a lot, ain't it?
Hell yeah.
Hold on.
He's an intricate part of that offense now. Very, yes. Yeah, he's's an intricate part of that offense now.
Very, yes. Yes. Very important
piece of that offense now. But 15
is a little, you know what?
Who am I to say it's too much?
If you want 15, you get you 15.
Are they going to pay you 15? They're not.
As for 15, they're
probably going to lay him on 12.
Yeah. I'm just being honest.
I'm just being honest. I like Brother Cook. I like the way you're yeah. I just be an artist, Ocho. I just be an artist. I like, I like, I like,
I like Brother Cook.
I like the way he's thinking.
I do too.
Go a little high,
they're going to bring it low.
And when they bring it low,
they're going to shoot you
right where you want to be.
Aim for the stars,
land on the moon.
Hey, talk to me now.
I'm with you.
I'm putting up
what you're putting down.
I'm picking up
what you're putting down.
Ocho.
What happened?
Did you get Rel this
airbag bag for Valentine's Day?
Rel posted a pic earlier.
What? She did?
Let's see that.
What a picture. Where is that?
We ain't got it. We ain't got the graphic?
I guess not.
Yeah, I saw it.'t put this up there
We ain't got the graphic
Hey
She got
Oh boy
She must be out there
Spending that money boy
Yeah you know
Listen
If you ain't with me
If you ain't my lady
If you ain't my old lady
And we ain't together
I ain't spending no money
On you boy
So you know it wasn't me
I don't play that
I don't even play that I don't even play that.
I don't even play that. It was him, Chad.
Huh? It was him,
Chad. I don't play that. What I look
like spending on somebody that don't claim me publicly?
Shoot, man.
Oh, there you go right there.
It was him. What'd it say?
Ooh, somebody bought her
something nice. That might be a little boo,
huh?
She might got her little boo, huh? Ooh.
She might got her little boo or something, huh?
Man, you bought that.
You ain't fooling me.
Hey, listen.
I'm just telling you.
I'm going to tell you like it is, huh?
I was asleep all day.
I'm trying to recover from my week in New Orleans.
So I ain't even...
Your credit card wasn't asleep.
It must have been.
Because I ain't had no charge.
Hey, I tell you what. You'll get a because I ain't had no charge. Hey,

at the end of the month.
Boy,

it's one thing about me.
You know me.
I don't leave with no money
and if you...
Bro,

Cut that bull jive.
Talk about leave with money.
It's been six though,
but that's a good number.
It's been six. But hey,
listen, I don't know who bought that, boy.
But whoever bought that, I
sure... Ocho. Huh?
Ocho bought it. Nah,
I'm telling you. I wouldn't lie to you.
I lied for you before I lied to you. But whoever
bought that, boy, keep them gifts coming, boy.
Because the more you do,
the less I got to. You hear me?
No, you got to match it.
Not match who?
I ain't matching nothing, boy.
I'm from here to get the dough.
Yeah, Chad.
I don't know where that came from.
Y'all know your boy don't spin like that, boy.
Especially not on somebody that ain't mine.
You hear me?
Stay with me.
It's still yours.
Nah, I don't know, boy. Somebody bought real something, boy.
You know what?
She might have bought it herself
and then acted like somebody bought it.
Because I done seen that happen before, too.
Me, too.
Did you buy it, Titus?
Titus said, nah.
I ain't got no money.
Said, my daddy sees my credit cards.
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.

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,

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...
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.
All right, Ochoa, it's time for our final segment of the evening.
It's time for Q&A.
Yay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Aaron Owen says, what's up, Uncle Ocho?
Who did you score your first career touchdown against in the league,
and did you guys keep the football?
Yes, Kansas City.
Scored it on Kevin Ross.
Ryan McNeil, San Diego Chargers, 2001.
I don't know where the hell that football at.
Joni Fana, what do you think?
The fact is about Joe Montana
he'll still hold
records over Brady
Mahomes
for never losing
or throwing an interception
in the Super Bowl
or in an NFL
championship
uh
that's not true
if you go back
and look at the game
in which the catch
go back and check
Joe Montana's stats out
I think he threw
three fumbles
I mean I think he threw
three interceptions
and he fumbled once.
Check that ass
to make sure I'm correct.
But I feel very comfortable
because I remember that game.
I'm almost certain.
And they ended up winning,
I think, 28-27
with the catch.
I think that was 1981
in which he caught that ball
over Everson Walls.
Walls had, he was Rookie of the Year.
He had 10 picks that season, and they went on to win the Super Bowl
against Detroit, excuse me, not Detroit, against the Bengals in Detroit.
Joe beat Ted Anderson.
Am I correct, Ash?
Ash, you ain't got to say it like that
you heard
Ocho yeah
dang
you could like
yeah you know you could just put on the board like yes
yeah it was correct
uh
Josh R908
Ocho love the show y'all are
true inspiration even with bad optics Kansas City put out their Super Bowl.
Do you still think the road to the Lombardi goes through Kansas City?
In the AFC?
Hell yeah.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Brandon L., why does no one call for John Harbaugh a Buffalo coach's job
they haven't won
anything as well
well John Harbaugh
has won
went to the AFC
championship two years ago
lost in the division around
this year
McDermott's a little different ago. Lost in the division around this year.
McDermott's a little different.
You're right.
McDermott went to, this is, I think, his second AFC Championship game, won't you?
That McDermott has
been in.
I don't think
John Harbaugh's going anywhere,
but I don't think John Harbaugh won, what, but I don't think John Harbaugh won what?
Two years ago, I think they won what?
14 games?
Last year, I think they won what?
11 and, they were 11 and six?
12 and five?
I don't think that's comparable
considering that
John Harbaugh won a playoff game this year.
He won one last year.
And the Steelers haven't won one
since 2016.
But we'll keep that in mind.
We'll see how it plays out this year.
Isaiah Lancaft, Uncle Nocho,
who are your top five NFC teams
that could be a threat to the Eagles
next season? And what is the greatest
Super Bowl run of all time?
Top five NFC teams?
Threats. Oh, threats.
Commanders, Detroit,
Rams,
49ers.
Am I allowed to put the Cowboys in there?
Yeah. I'm just going with the Cowboys in there? Yeah.
I'm just going with the Cowboys last,
depending on what team shows up this year.
The team that's been showing up the last three years.
The last 30.
Hey, listen, I got faith in that.
I got faith.
To do what?
In C. I got faith. To do what? And see the lamb.
Dylan Young said, in
2026, Fitz, Breeze, Gore,
Witten, Rivers, all Hall of Fame eligible
for the first time. Does Breeze make it
in his first year? Yes. I think Drew
Breeze and Lance Fitzgerald
are first ballot Hall of Famer.
Oh, yeah.
Gore, nah, he's not getting in on the first ballot Hall of Famer. Oh, yeah. Gore?
Nah, he's not getting in on the first ballot.
Whitten?
It's going to be tough.
I think he has the next greatest chance to get in.
Rivers?
I don't think he gets in on the first ballot, Ocho.
If they didn't put Kurt Warner in
with three
Super Bowl appearances, a Super Bowl
MVP, a Super Bowl win, two regular season
MVPs,
I don't see a situation where Rivers gets in on the first
ballot. That's just me.
Do I think he'll be a Hall of Famer?
I absolutely do.
J.W. Akron, Ocho better rethink that match with Debo.
He looks like Teddy tried to fight Titus.
Teddy wins sometimes.
When Titus, like, if Titus step on him,
Teddy ain't going to stop until he bite his nose.
It is.
And draw some blood.
It is.
It is.
It's going to be blood drawn drawn so make sure you be ready

The Lakers lose heading into the All-Star break,
snapping their six-game winning streak.
131-119 to the Utah Jazz.
They head into the All-Star break.
32-20. LeBron
James makes his 21st
consecutive All-Star game start,
which is an NBA record.
He broke the record last year with his
20th. Well,
19 was the record. 19.
Kareem had 19 game All-Star appearances,
and so did Kobe. LeBron
has 20 last year, but they're All-Stars.
