Yeah, Lamar also said he doesn't view the matchup with the Chiefs as a revenge game. Any game I play and I feel like it's a revenge game. Nah, because the stakes aren't the same. Now, if we get back to the same situation, Ocho,
Starting point is 00:04:08 you're damn right. Now, even though I can't go back and take what you've already gotten, but I want my lick back. I want to get your ass out. I want you to feel like how I felt last year. Like you were going to the Super Bowl and we were taking our ass home. So I want to
Starting point is 00:04:24 give you that feeling because you hadn't had that feeling in quite a while Pat you know that a long and I want you to feel that long time so I want you when you're driving away from the stadium and the fans wave and say don't worry about it we had a good season that's what I want you to hear hey and I want you to play in the Pro Bowl because I won't be playing in the Pro Bowl this year I'm going to be getting ready for the Super Bowl if I'm a if I'm a Lamar, yeah, yeah, I'm going to get your ass back yeah
Starting point is 00:04:54 slow down a little bit you talk about the Ravens playing in the Super Bowl you know, Joe Burrow and the Bengals are going to be ready for New Orleans man, Joe ain't beating, He got one win against the Bar. I know we've won in three. It's a new season, huh? It's a new season.
Starting point is 00:05:10 It's a new season. And I know we have a lot of Ravens fans in the chat. I love you. No disrespect. No, I love you. And I've always showed love and grace to all of you as fans, even when I was playing. But I'm telling you, the AFC North runs through the 5-1-3.
Starting point is 00:05:25 Stop playing. And if anybody in the chat that'sFC North runs through the 5-1-3. Stop playing. And if anybody in the chat that's a Ravens fan want to put some money on it, put your money up. Let's bet. What you talking about, man? Who they? Stop playing with me. You know what it is. The Patriots are entering a new era without Coach Belichick.
Starting point is 00:05:40 And their jerseys reflect that. The Patriots' captains will wear a C on their jersey this season. Something Belichick never allowed. But new coach Jared Mayo, Gerard Mayo will. Mayo said, I do think it's important to have that C on the jersey. That's one difference that I think is important. It's a badge of honor. And I think when our guys do the right thing, they should be recognized for those things. It's something as small as having a captain's patch i think it's important for those guys ocho you like that it's dope it's cool but you know belichick one with that listen one team we all come out at the same time when we introduce
Starting point is 00:06:17 one band one sound you know i mean that's that's that was the way Belichick ran everything. You know, again, I use it. I use it. I use the analogy. I've never been to the army. I've never been to the Navy. I don't know what it's like to be part of the Marines. But the way that team was ran. Was in a militant manner.
Starting point is 00:06:40 We all move as one. So there was no need for the, know the c on the chest we knew who we knew who the captain was we knew who ran the show he wore number 12 yeah we knew who it was you know but i think it's a cool thing gerard mayo getting back to you know um what what a lot of other teams do and having a captain and it no it's dope yeah it's dope i like that because i'm not doing with coach but i'm not coach belichick coach belichick chose not to have the seeds i choose to have them right um yeah coach belichick father uh coached at the naval academy i think his dad was in the naval academy um yeah so you could understand why the militarism uh the militaristic
Starting point is 00:07:21 style in which he coached the discipline, the determination, the dedication. You have to have that in the military or as Colonel Nathan Jessup said, men die when men don't follow orders, men die. Yeah. There are consequences and coach Belichick did a great job of conveying that his players did a great job of understanding that. And that's why there were very few times, you probably can count on one hand,
Starting point is 00:07:46 how many times did you say a Coach Belichick team beat themselves? Yeah, very seldom. They're not going to get those stupid penalties. They're not going to do it. Very seldom. You never see Coach Belichick players die with the ball, trying to get the ball over the end zone. If it's not going out at the one,
Starting point is 00:08:02 if we can't get it in four downs, we don't deserve to get the ball in the end zone. Because the risk-reward, you get it punched out, it goes out the back of the end zone. If it's not going out at the one, if we can't get it in four downs, we don't deserve to get the ball in the end zone because the risk reward, you get it punched out, it goes out the back of the end zone. Now, not only do we not get points, they get the ball at the 20 going out the other way. So he did a great job of that, but I do like it. Let me ask you a question.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Do you think players care about having that C on the jersey? I think it's dope to understand and know how your peers feel about you, how your teammates feel about you. Being able to don that C on your shirt, I think
Starting point is 00:08:36 it's cool. It's a really dope honor to know that your peers and your players view you as that captain and the leader of men when it's time to go to war on that field i think i think it's dope yeah i mean i'm listen i when i when i played i wasn't a guy shit i i ain't kidding about that captain i i couldn't be a captain because i was too busy goddamn making jokes before before the time to go play but But, uh, I, I, I guess it's cool.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Yeah, I guess it's cool. Uh, yeah, I would love to have a Jersey with captain on that thing. And, you know, that wasn't a thing.
Starting point is 00:09:13 I think it came in like a couple of years, maybe a year or two after I left, but, uh, it would have been an unbelievable honor. Of course. Uh, to know,
Starting point is 00:09:21 um, I was three time captain, uh, at Savannah state. We didn't have, obviously, we didn't have no seat. I don't even think, what Deion put, leader, and then I think
Starting point is 00:09:31 Trav got D, which means dog, on here. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, I think it's an unbelievable honor. And everybody that gets that captaincy on their jersey, they should feel proud of themselves that the coaches and the players they should they should feel proud of themselves that the coaches and the players thought that no matter them that you're the captain of this team we we
Starting point is 00:09:50 we believe in you and uh yeah i thought i think it would be an unbelievable honor if that if that would have happened oh joe check this out nbc is reporting the nfl could soon look to start the season with games on Labor Day. There will reportedly be games scheduled Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. You like it? I love shit to hell. I like it. You give me more football, that's better for me.
Starting point is 00:10:21 No, you give me more money, that's better for me. Well, the money's going to come or there ain't going to be no games played. Yeah. So they add the game on late, but you just understand that that's an extra check. Yeah. That's an extra check. I think the thing is, they're doing that, Ocho, but are you going to add an extra bye week? Because now, if you have
Starting point is 00:10:37 18 games, the game is already the second Sunday in February. You add that extra game. Everybody had everybody had two baths. Hey, you playing, you playing, what's the holiday in February. You add that extra game. Everybody had too bad. You playing the holiday in February, President's Day? You playing games after the first of March.
Starting point is 00:10:53 Yeah. I mean, look, the NFL, look. The NFL is king. And the only way that you can get more money out of these linear networks, these streaming services, is to give them what they want.
Starting point is 00:11:11 You got to play. You got to play ball. Yeah. You got to play ball. And the players are going to get a slice of the pie. The players are going to get a piece of the pie. So, listen,
Starting point is 00:11:20 I like it. Well, they already going to have this Thanksgiving. Don't they got a already going to have this Thanksgiving. Don't they got a game like leading up to Thanksgiving? They got games like Thursday, Friday. Yeah, we got a – I mean, they got a Friday game this week, Coach O. Green Bay and Philly play Friday.
Starting point is 00:11:37 Yeah. I mean, and we got a game Thursday. So, hey, that's better for me. Yeah. Because I'm excited. I'm waiting for football season. I've been waiting. You know how long I've been waiting for this?
Starting point is 00:11:48 I've been waiting for this for a long time. Yeah. So that means you're probably going to only have, like, two preseason games. Yeah. And then, you know, you have two preseason games. Now, guys will get to come to camp probably a little later. Because I don't think you'd have, you know,
Starting point is 00:12:02 two preseason games, Ochoa and then. Because after the third preseason game, you still got, like, two weeks. So that means, Tim, you're going to have two preseason games and have three weeks before you play. Probably bring the players in later, a week later, maybe even 10 days later, have the two games, and then, boom, we're going to get ready to go. So you might not be coming into camp, Ocho, until damn near
Starting point is 00:12:22 the end of July, the beginning of August. I don't like not having enough preseason games for players that are they not playing seventh round when the last time you saw when the last time you saw Patrick Mahomes play the preseason hold on so you think you think you think two games is enough to evaluate players that are trying to make a team they're not playing your starters aren't playing Ocho that's what that's what I'm saying. I'm talking about the players that were drafted in lower rounds and
Starting point is 00:12:50 free agents. Do you think two preseason games is enough film to be able to make a team? I guess they're doing a lot of eval, OTA. They're doing a lot of eval. The mandatory, the minis and the mandatory minis. And you know you're just going to have to show a lot earlier
Starting point is 00:13:07 okay they're probably going to the practice squads so you know a guy maybe he's not ready to play right now but a year I think he'll be ready you just hope somebody he doesn't show somebody else enough
Starting point is 00:13:23 that they sign him off your practice squad and put his ass on the roster. And put his ass on the active roster. But we know this is coming because I think they got like Thanksgiving. I think they got a like a Tuesday game like Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday,
Starting point is 00:13:39 Saturday, Sunday, Monday. Damn! That might be Christmas. That might be the Christmas schedule, Ash. But they got like, I think they play like every day except like Wednesday. Because you know what I mean? They had the Black Friday game. Friday game, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Speaking of Black Friday, boy, I can't wait for them sales. Man, that's they gonna sell. All they do is mark it up two weeks before and then mark it down to make you think you're getting something. You don't shop on Black Friday at Target? So they got a game Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday.
Starting point is 00:14:17 Not Saturday. So Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday, Monday. Okay. Black Friday, baby. Ow. You heard me, huh? What happened? You don't shop it on Black Friday?
Starting point is 00:14:42 Man, I ain't been on the market. Bruh. No, I'm saying for me listen Target, Black Friday at Target the Hanes underwear the tank tops the white tees the gold toe socks, you know about the gold toe socks what you know about that
Starting point is 00:14:58 why you wearing gold toe socks for dress shoes, those for dress shoes no no no the cotton sock with the gold toe they just call wearing gold toe socks for dress shoes. Those for dress shoes. No, no, no. The cotton sock with the gold toe. I just call them gold toe because the toe is gold. But that's what the dress socks are. But they sliced them prices in half. No, you pay a full price.
Starting point is 00:15:16 You just think you pay in half. No, I know the prices. I got the Target app, huh? I got the Target app. I know the prices, man. Don't do me like that. Yeah. No, I don't.
Starting point is 00:15:23 No, Shelly shops on Black Friday. I don't shop. But I don't mean, I mean, it's not like, I mean, occasionally she'll go and get it, but for the most part, she'll just order it
Starting point is 00:15:32 and have it sent to them, have it sent. I'll try it on. Okay, I like it. I don't. She'll come, when she comes, she'll send it back.
Starting point is 00:15:40 Nah, but going to the store, like actually, you mean to tell me like going to the store and actually try stuff on? No, no, no. I don't do that. I don't do that. That, like actually, you mean to tell me like going to store and actually try stuff on? No, no, no. I don't do that. I don't do that.
Starting point is 00:15:47 That's like 10, 15 years. But hold on. You don't, you don't just go to Target just to walk up and down the aisles? No, I go to Target. If I go to Target, if I'm low on something, but now Shelly just buys everything. So she'll buy, she'll buy like, like those big old Listerines. She'll buy like four of those. She'll buy like 22 of the toothpaste.
Starting point is 00:16:05 She'll buy like, you know, plaques, like 15 things of plaques. And so once I get to like five, she'll buy like 10 shower gels. So I don't really need to go. Yeah, I mean, but see, I don't think you understand. Like just there's a certain excitement. I don't know about you, Chad. I don't know about y'all, but there's a certain excitement I get. I don't want to use the word like a adrenaline rush,
Starting point is 00:16:30 but there's a certain excitement about just going in Target. Just knowing you're going in there and you're going in there for one thing. And the challenge in being able to just purchase that one thing is such a great feeling to see if you can actually do it. And just being able to walk up and down each aisle,
Starting point is 00:16:46 like it's that, like going to the target brings me such joy. I don't, I don't know how to explain it. It's weird. I don't know if I'm the only one that has this weird fascination with this damn store, but like,
Starting point is 00:16:57 it's awesome. It's like every time I walk in, it's like, I've never been there before. It's like, I've never been there. I'd be happy. I'd be happy as hell.
Starting point is 00:17:04 I, uh, I, uh, I mean, I, one time I had a girlfriend send me to the store to get some hamburger patties. She said, all you need is hamburger patties and buns. Man, I came back with $250 worth of groceries. Man, I done bought cornbread. I done bought everything. I done bought filet. I done bought ribeyes. And I done bought man I done bought cornbread I done bought everything I done bought I done bought filet
Starting point is 00:17:26 I done bought ribeyes and I done bought everything I went to Pulse's shop so that's why I don't really like I go for one I might go for one thing man I'm getting grapes
Starting point is 00:17:36 plums apples all type of stuff I'm getting everything so it's just best I'm coming back with granola
Starting point is 00:17:43 chips so it's like I try to'm coming back with granola chips. So it's like, I try to stay. I don't really do a whole lot of shopping. So that's Shelly's job. Shelly, Shelly, Shelly get paid to do all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:17:53 So it can wait till she get here. If I get it, if I need something, she'll do like, cause I don't have, I don't have Lyft. I don't have Uber eats. I don't have those kinds of apps on my phone,
Starting point is 00:18:03 so I can't order it. So she'll order it. Right, right, right. Or, you know, like Uber. See, like my daughter, usually I have my daughter this weekend. You know, I'm trying her out. She interning right now. Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:18:15 She only gave her the card. So she was in charge of transportation, making sure everybody gets from point A to point B. And she did a great job. I said, baby, you did a great job. I said, but you know what daddy expect now? You're like, yeah, I know daddy. I said, okay. Just so we know. Just so we clear. Also, we briefly touched on the
Starting point is 00:18:31 Brazil game last night where Darius Slay came out and said he doesn't want to play the game in Brazil. He said, they already told us not to leave the hotel. They tell us we can't do too much going on because the crime rate is crazy. I'm like, NFL, why y'all want to send going on because the crime rate is crazy i'm like nfl why y'all want to send us somewhere where the crime rate is high i told my family not to come
Starting point is 00:18:52 down here because i'm not going to be nowhere to be found i'm gonna be in my hotel chilling minding my business playing my game after a long nine and a half hour flight so i don't have no intentions of doing anything i'm gonna eat hotel food i'm gonna be doing everything but they said it's gonna be pretty crazy down here i listen i understand where you're coming from i understand where you're coming from the gangs in brazil they they are kind of crazy knowing the nfl and the security and the measures that they're going to take i think the players are going to be okay, especially wherever they are staying. But what the NFL is trying to do is continue to go...
Starting point is 00:19:31 Glow the game globally. The NFL brand globally in a place that is dominated by the game of football, soccer for that matter. I understand what they're doing, trying to present American football over there in Brazil. I think it's a great thing.
Starting point is 00:19:48 It's a great thing for the game, but I don't want the players to get distracted or focus on the part of not wanting to go to Brazil, not wanting to go to Brazil, but focusing on the game at hand. I want to go to Brazil. Yeah, listen, you want to go for the Royals. Hold on, Ojo, we
Starting point is 00:20:04 need to go to Carnival. Damn, you can't go now. Carnival? Yeah, listen, you want to go for the Royal? Hey, that carnival. Hold on, Joe. We need to go to carnival.

Hey, they got something like that in Jamaica, too, don't they? Don't they got a festival like that in Jamaica where the women dressed up in, like, costumes
Starting point is 00:20:24 with flowers and beads? I think so. I know in the Bahamas they have Junkanoo. And I'm sure Jamaica has something as well. I'm not sure what it may be called. We're at 28, though, Joe. Oh, we can go. Could we just be finishing work at the Super Bowl? Yeah. Oh, we out.

Starting point is 00:21:02 that are going on in Brazil. But hell, you're playing Philly. You're playing Philly. Philly just is dangerous. Philly just is dangerous. It's Brazil. But I understand it. You understand the bigger picture that the NFL is trying
Starting point is 00:21:17 to do. Yeah, I do. I understand. Are you there for a football game? You don't need to go nowhere. Stay in your room. Give me some bodyguards. I'm gone. Oh, you're going to leave anyway? Give me four bodyguards with some Uzi. Come on, let's do this. With some Uzi?

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,
Starting point is 00:33:02 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?

Starting point is 00:35:44 I mean, is he really on the hot seat when Aaron hasn't had an opportunity to play yet? I think he might have a little grace. He was there two years before Aaron got there. And again, they'll probably blame the quarterback situation. Okay. Doug Peterson. Ah. Wait, didn't the Jaguars just make the
Starting point is 00:36:08 playoff last year? year before remember they was 8-3 they was the number one seed and missed the playoff Matt Eberflus is gonna be fine you know his job his job is secure he good Sean McDermott I understand I understand. I understand.
Starting point is 00:36:27 But, I mean, God damn it. The fact that these coaches are getting fired because of... Players get cut if they don't perform. Yeah, you're right. You're right. But listen, the coaches ain't on the field. But I tell you what, Ocho, going back to that deal. The coaches ain't on the field.
Starting point is 00:36:44 I tell you what we're going to do, Ocho, going back to that meal. The coaches ain't on the field. I tell you what we're going to do, Ocho. Y'all get them Sparks, road.com, nightcap. That's them Sparks, them rubies. Ocho, I got somebody right now that'll make you a meal. I know people are going to laugh, but y'all can Google it.

Starting point is 00:37:18 you gotta do that but you don't wanna do nothing when you when you evolve and try it and you come back and say, boy, guess what? I tried so and so and so. Then I try your bull dick and onions.
Starting point is 00:37:34 There it is. Even swap, even trade, even swindle. Go look it up. I know y'all think I'm crazy about it. Google it. And see, they got recipes for it too, Ocho. They got recipes for it. I ain't never heard of that.
Starting point is 00:37:50 I ain't heard of it until you told me about it. Google it. They ain't going to believe it, though. Google it. Jordan's Googling it right now. Jordan said, man, when we going back down south again, I want to try it. I know I got one I want to try it. I know I got
Starting point is 00:38:07 one person that'll try it. And Bleacher Report revealed their most underrated team, underrated players at their position. Quarterback was Jared Goff. Running back Chuba Hubbard. Wide receivers Brandon Cook, Darius
Starting point is 00:38:28 Slayton, Khalil Shakir. Tight end Cole Komet. Ocho, do you agree with the team? I like that. I like that. Especially the Jared Goff one. Severely underrated.
Starting point is 00:38:44 Brandon Cook is a good one. Darius Slayton is nice. Nice. Cole Komet. Cole Komet going to have a year. I like it. Cole Komet is going to have a year. Very, very good.
Starting point is 00:39:01 Very, very good tight end. Let me see. Shakur from Buffalo. I guess he's going to try to pick up some of the slack vacated by Stephon, by Diggs. And Gabe. Gabe Davidson. Gabe Davidson in Jacksonville. They lost him too.
Starting point is 00:39:18 I know. I know. I said some of the slack. Pick up some of the slack since those two are gone. Well, listen. Obviously, Shakur showed them something. He showed them something for them to be able to let both of them go. So he's up next.
Starting point is 00:39:33 Him and Keon Coleman are up next. Ocho, the Clippers saw big changes made this offseason when PG, Paul George, elected to lead to the 76ers in free agency. Paul George recently brought his father, Paul George Sr., on Podcast P, which is Paul George's podcast. Paul George Sr. did not hold back when talking about his son's departure. It was hurting. It was like I felt they stabbed us in the back because I thought Paul did a lot
Starting point is 00:39:58 for the team as far as the fan base. The fans was there, and he was there. I think he gave 110% what he was asking. It wasn't a whole lot, but they saw something different. Ocho? I mean, listen, you know, family,
Starting point is 00:40:17 his son, defending his son, business, the Clippers, and what they see and how they value. Value are two different things. Absolutely correct. You're absolutely correct. And that is exactly why whatever Paul George felt he was worth,
Starting point is 00:40:40 the Clippers didn't for whatever reason. Yeah. For whatever reason it may be. It's tough when you think about what they gave up to get him. Yeah. They gave up Shea Gildress. They gave up all those draft picks. They gave up those swap picks.
Starting point is 00:40:59 They gave up a lot to get him. Yes, sir. And as of right now, that, uh... You think it's panned out? Has it panned out, you think? You're for Oklahoma City. Yeah, it panned out for them.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Right. That goddamn Shea Gildress, that's Shea Gildress, Alexander, good, man. God damn. They gave him up. you look at all the draft picks that they surrendered to get P.J.
Starting point is 00:41:31 and only went to the conference finals I think when they went once but that's a lot because Hawaii couldn't can't stay healthy
Starting point is 00:41:37 P.G. couldn't stay healthy the best chance they had was in the bubble and they gagged the 3-1 lead and yeah I know because PG was home he wanted to come home
Starting point is 00:41:48 when Andy traded him he thought he was coming to the Lakers but that didn't happen he goes to OKC he re-signs stays in OKC and then situation with Russ wanted to leave blah blah blah he ends up getting traded to LA so he's home I think he's from Palmdale. So he's
Starting point is 00:42:05 probably, you know, an hour away. So he's basically home. He wanted to stay home. He wanted to stay home. PJ, you got to keep more of your money now, bro. Oh, yeah. LAB taxing, boy. Ocho.
Starting point is 00:42:23 Probably the biggest thing on the internet tonight is what Nancy Lieberman said on steven a's podcast about cheryl swoops let's take a listen to what nancy one of the great female women's players of all time let's take a listen to what she had to say that said you know caitlyn was you know 25 years old she was however 24 years old she was a 50 year senior she was taking 40 shots a game her records were illegitimate. And I got off the treadmill and I called her as a friend and I said, you know, you can say whatever you want. You can have your own opinion about anybody, but you do have to get the
Starting point is 00:42:54 statistics right. I mean, facts matter. And if you just get ahead of this and just say, hey, I made a mistake on my numbers, then this thing is over and everybody respects you for your opinion. And, you know, you might like Boston. I might like the Yankees. You know, it's okay to have difference of opinions. Well, she got upset with me on the phone and I was like, Cheryl, you know, I'm not doing anything to hurt you. I'm just sharing.
Starting point is 00:43:16 We're talking. And so our relationship pretty much is not happening at this point. I tried to talk to her at the final four. She didn't want to talk to me. My life's going to be good or great with or without Cheryl Swoops in my life. I'd rather have her in it. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:43:31 Ooh, shoot. The fact that, you know, there's one thing about women. One thing about women. They will sever a relationship quick behind anything, behind any disagreement. Now, me and you, we can agree to disagree yeah and we're gonna be straight but the fact that the relationship was severed
Starting point is 00:43:53 because there was a difference in opinion wasn't that strong despite the facts not being despite the facts not being correct basically what what miss nancy was saying but But, I mean, that's unfortunate because there have been so many situations where this always happens when it comes to women. I hear these stories all the time. Just in this case, the topic has to be Cheryl swoops Samson about Caitlin Clark. That's not factual.
Starting point is 00:44:18 Oh, Joe. And not wanting to take accountability as well, I'm assuming, huh? If the least thing can cause someone to distance themselves, the friendship was never legitimate or authentic anyway. There's no way. Right, okay. Someone gets off their treadmill and call me and say,
Starting point is 00:44:37 well, Shannon, you misspoke about this. I do it all the time, Mocho. You know, I have a lot of stuff. So I might get someone, they scored this many touchdowns, of stuff so i might get someone they scored this many touchdowns no they had that many or they scored this many sacks or i might mispronounce someone or i might get a situation where the player is no longer on the team even right and a lot of times it's like i will correct myself and say guys before we move on to the next subject i misspoke such and such is no longer on that team is on on that team, he's here. Oh, I misspoke, he had this many touchdowns,
Starting point is 00:45:06 he played this many years, so forth and so on. I'm trying to correct it. Ocho, if somebody tries to correct me and I sever a relationship or I'm no longer on speaking terms, we never had a friendship to begin with. There's no possible way. And I don't get
Starting point is 00:45:25 see this this is what i'm having a hard time with ocho is because a lot of times what i've gotten and i'm not going to talk because i've talked to some of these great legendary wmba players and they tell me shannon don't forget about the old guard. When Magic and Bird, they say Magic and Bird saved the NBA. They didn't say nothing about Will, Kareem. They didn't say anything about Mr. Russell. They didn't say about Connie Hawkins, Elgin Baylor, Jerry West. I don't give her, look, whatever you might think, never in the history, and there have been some great players,
Starting point is 00:46:11 came in with this kind of fanfare. Candace Parker was tremendous, rookie of the year and MVP, and a defensive player of the year. She's great. Maya Moore, Stewie, all of these women were more accomplished college players than caitlyn clark but there's a reason why you had a record watching the wmba draft there's a reason why the record attendance there's a reason why jersey sales and ticket sales are up instead of trying to be dismissive of the role that she's playing and trying to say, well,
Starting point is 00:46:46 y'all not talking about it. Come on. When we talk about Luka and Jokic and this one, they don't automatically go back and start, well, you remember what Bill Russell did? You remember what this one did? They don't do that, guys. Come on, women.
Starting point is 00:47:02 I have a question. Besides their stellar play in college, Andrew Reese and Katelyn Clark, do you also think that everything is magnified and intensified as far as their popularity, especially as far as the game is concerned, because of social media? Well, because they have a following.
Starting point is 00:47:24 Yes, they come in with a following. Exposure from social media? Yeah, because they have a following. Yes, they come in with a following. And exposure from social media as well? For sure. Yes. So the times are a little different when Candace Parker and some of those young ladies were coming out.
Starting point is 00:47:35 I think if social media was at its height back then, I think they would have gotten the same type of love because they were just as polarizing and good at the game of basketball as well so i think the timing for caitlin clark and angel reese is is awesome during the social media era yes but two things can be true those women were great
Starting point is 00:48:00 they were they were absolutely great phenomenal caitlyn clark is a polarizing figure and people gravitate towards her right that's that that is absolutely that that could that that happened it's okay right caitlyn clark's success doesn't diminish what sheryl swoops accomplished it doesn't diminish what maya mo's accomplished. It doesn't diminish what Maya Moore, what Candace Parker, what Cheryl Swoop, what Lauren Jackson, what Stewie, what Asia Wilson, whatever they have done before Kaitlyn Clark arrived. Kaitlyn Clark's arrival doesn't diminish anything that they've done. But the game grow is growing and all these women i'm glad that some of the women i
Starting point is 00:48:50 wish that a lot of the women could have been in and benefited from it because they don't make nearly i mean i think the highest salary you can make is a quarter of a million well those women the cheryl swoogs and the candace parker they were never i don't think they were ever in line to make that kind of money. And it's only going up from here. But I think the thing the best part about what we do is that it's called nightcap. It's over your head. It's directly to my
Starting point is 00:49:17 right shoulder. It's directly over your head. We get to talk about what we want to talk about. ESPN don't control this platform. We wanted to talk about the Olympics. We wanted to talk about track and field. We get to talk about what we want to talk about. ESPN don't control this platform. We wanted to talk about the Olympics. We wanted to talk about track and field. We wanted to talk about what we wanted to talk about. What other podcasts, what other
Starting point is 00:49:33 network talked about it? Just because y'all say, oh, ESPN don't tell me what to say. They don't tell me what to say on our first tape. How are they going to tell me what to say. They don't tell me what to say on the first tape. How are they going to tell me what to say on mine? This is mine. That's why I created it.
Starting point is 00:49:52 Can't fire me from this. We on this. Y'all can't get what happens is, if you disagree with something somebody says, oh, he bought. Oh, he just talking. What? What'd I get? I don't get no checks, but, he bought. Oh, he just talking.
Starting point is 00:50:05 What? What'd I get? I don't get no checks. But see, this is what I don't get. You say something good about LeBron, you bought. But they talk about Kobe and Jordan all the time. So how many pairs of shoes did Kobe send you? How many pairs of shoes did Jordan get you?
Starting point is 00:50:21 So how many checks you getting for saying that Jordan's the GOAT, that Kobe's the GOAT? Oh, only LeBron is paying folks. Hmm. Now, when I had Angel Reese's jacket on, when I spoke, well, Angel Reese, when I tweeted, I tweeted like, congratulations, Angel Reese, Bayou Barbie getting selected seventh overall.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Right. Oh, Angel Reese ain't the only one getting drafted. Now, all y'all ain't saying, oh, Aja Reese ain't the only one getting drafted. Now, all of a sudden, I'm like, huh? So guess what? I'm going to keep talking. Oh, you don't never talk about Aja Wilson. Really, dude? Really?
Starting point is 00:51:03 Really? It's people that watch clips and they don't watch the whole show thank you if you watch the whole show you would know that we talk about everybody all the WNBA players that are playing well
Starting point is 00:51:18 that's it everyone gets their praise but a lot of times Ocho this is how it goes there are a lot of guys, Ocho, this is how it goes. There are a lot of guys in the NFL that play great. Mahone, Lamar, most of the guys, it's the quarterbacks that gets the attention in the NBA. There are a lot of players that go play great.
Starting point is 00:51:40 It's Steph, LeBron, KD, and the big guns. It's not unique. Y'all make it seem like it's unique. There are a lot of founding fathers that built because anytime something that's the NBA is 1947 if I'm not mistaken so almost 80 years.
Starting point is 00:51:56 Okay, now you got the NFL over 100 years old. Sure. MLB 150 damn near 150 years old. Yes! There are founding. There are people that built this. MLB 150, damn near 150 years old. Yes! They're a founding. They're people that built this.
Starting point is 00:52:13 But how is it her fault when she was born? How is it her fault that fans love her? Have there been great players? Yes. Yes. There were great white players before Larry Bird. He just happened to be the best one. Before. Now, when it's all said and done, Nikola Jokic might
Starting point is 00:52:31 have something to say about that. Luka could have something to say about that. And that's okay. That's okay. But I don't get this oh, the old guard, the old guard. All I'm saying is this. People wasn't fanatic.
Starting point is 00:52:53 It wasn't buzzing. The WNBA, and they people didn't talk about it like they do. Instead of being upset about it, I'm a ride the wave. It might not even been my wave, Ojo. But, hell, I'm going to ride the wave. It might not even be my wave, Ocho. But hell, I'm out here on the surfboard. So hell, I'm going to ride it to the shore. You're going to ride it anyway? But Nancy Lieberman,
Starting point is 00:53:16 look, I love Cheryl Swoop. I've met Cheryl Swoop and had a conversation with her a couple of times. Always been great to me. But I don't get, I don't think Nancy said anything that's wrong. Cheryl, you just got, you know, your facts are off.
Starting point is 00:53:31 She didn't shoot this many times. She wasn't this and she wasn't that. Okay. You get upset because you said something that wasn't factually correct and somebody corrects you. And now that's a ground that you're not
Starting point is 00:53:45 no longer you're going to cut off communication yeah I mean and also Miss Nancy could be exaggerating a little bit because what she considers friends you know our people don't really consider friends oh sweetie you're an associate you're
Starting point is 00:54:01 you know what I mean sometimes it ain't really friends the way individual things right yeah yeah like you got my phone number when i see you i see you was cool but thinking like we actually friends like that like come on now no yeah but so i i kind of i i understand i mean but think about it there's a lot of these a lot of great players didn't get an opportunity to play the wmba and when came, you got to think about how old they were. When they got there, they were already in their late 20s or early 30s.
Starting point is 00:54:31 It's not like these women now coming out of college at 21 and 22. It was in their late 20s, early 30s. Damn. Yeah. I get it
Starting point is 00:54:45 you know what it is Ocho you want me to let the elephant out of the room nah don't do that don't do that leave the elephant in there you know what it is yeah leave the elephant in there
Starting point is 00:54:55 it's okay most of the people in the WNBA look like us and they say why they don't get no praise why y'all wasn't talking about them that's what it is let's be real let's be real with it now yes sir And they say why they don't get no praise. Why y'all wasn't talking about them? That's what it is.
Starting point is 00:55:05 Let's be real. Let's be real with it now. Yes, sir. Mm-hmm. It'd have been interesting if they had social media, what would have been said about Larry Bird? Because a large percent of the NBA was, hey, remember Isaiah? Isaiah said it. He called black.

Starting point is 00:56:00 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
Starting point is 00:56:32 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.
Starting point is 00:57:24 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.

Starting point is 00:58:53 our heads together. We studied the trends. Where this thing is headed. It's what we do. I'd never be. Pat McAfee? Once I saw, that gave me hope. That gave me hope that I could do it. He did it.
Starting point is 00:59:10 Yeah. So I was like, okay. I'm going to go. Hey, let me, let me, let me do this. I already got one. Let's create something else. That's why I try to scour, try to find people that, that, that want to work hard. You're not going to work hard. You're not going to work hard.

We're going to probably expand it, open it up for probably somewhere between five and ten shows. fall early summer i mean late spring excuse me early summer we're gonna go we're gonna probably expand it open it up for probably somewhere between five and ten shows and uh definitely
Starting point is 01:01:30 hope we're coming to a city near you alex castinio guys how good was the bus i feel like he doesn't get the recognition he deserves when he's talking about great running backs of all time any good stories i remember i played against bus when he was with the Rams. Yeah, I caught him when he was with the Steelers. I think early in my career. I caught him early in his career. He got the name
Starting point is 01:01:55 to Buss for a reason. He could run over you. He could run by you. You look at him. You're like, man, thatascal fat rascal ain't gonna do nothing okay okay like i said i caught him with the rams right that's all i'm gonna say i caught him with the rams he was like that uh kemp or no would you hey kemp you let me down bro kemp you let me down you let ocho beat you kemp you let me down bro Kemper you let me down
Starting point is 01:02:25 you let Ocho beat you Kemper you gotta redeem yourself bro you gotta redeem yourself that's all I'm gonna say listen I'm a spelling bee champ for a reason man
Starting point is 01:02:33 I can't find my goddamn hat though I know that Real probably threw that thing away uh Kemper Norwood Jr. said uh
Starting point is 01:02:42 who's the team not named the 49ers that has a chance in the NFC to get to the football Packers lions. Rams. Eagles. Eagles, Kyle Eagles,
Starting point is 01:03:04 Cowboys. But I would say, I would say Green Bay first for me. Green Bay, the Lions for sure. Now we start getting Rams, Cowboys, Eagles, but I like what Dan Campbell has been able to build even though I thought he was out of his damn mind when he first got that first press conference
Starting point is 01:03:30 talking about he gonna be biting kneecaps and scratching the claw yeah and that's just that's the same way they plan to bite kneecaps
Starting point is 01:03:37 yeah uh yeah uh yeah everybody but the Cowboys damn it's gonna be very interesting to see we're gonna find out a lot I think the Cowboys open up on the road against Cleveland
Starting point is 01:04:02 right and listen and that's a good test, too, man. That goddamn Cleveland defense ain't no goddamn slouch. That Cleveland defense ain't no slouch. Oh, no, you just wrote that in there, Ash. 84-85, enjoy the show in Dallas. I'm a Dallas officer giving you a correct address to Total Wine's North Central Expressway.
Starting point is 01:04:30 Will Travis Hunter win the Heisman and be a top five pick? Man, it's so early. He going to be a top five pick. I can tell you that. Yeah. The Heisman going to a quarterback, man. Shador might win that. The question is, Ocho, can they win enough games?
Starting point is 01:04:49 That's not fair. I don't like that. Because you can continue to perform at a very high level, and you should still be able to win the Heisman, even if you're losing games. Because statistically... Mm-mm. Because those stats you pileded up they need to impact wins
Starting point is 01:05:06 yeah okay i like it well who else is out who who else out there should win the heisman well i mean look it's one it's one game did you not see what miller moss did for the usc like you said quarterbacks quarterbacks don to have 40 touchdowns, Ocho. Think about, look at what Jay Daniels did last year. Look at what Caleb Williams did the year before. What player going to top that? Bryce Young, 45 touchdowns, four interceptions. Joe Burrow, 60 touchdowns, five interceptions.
Starting point is 01:05:46 Really, Ocho? Right ahead. Down to 6,000 yards passing. Remember who we were throwing to now. But still, so how do you top that? When a quarterback throws for 45, 50 touchdowns with five, six interceptions, and they go nine and three. Mm-hmm. It's hard.
Starting point is 01:06:07 It's going to be hard for anybody other than... Now, they mess around. Let's just say for the sake of argument, they go eight and four. And Trav has 11, 1,200 yards receiving. He has
Starting point is 01:06:22 10 touchdowns. On defense, he has 10 touchdowns but on defense he has you know four picks a couple of fours fumbles now he comes into play now he comes into play yeah i know when he going top five i know that oh yeah for sure so he legit. Hell shit. Maybe top goddamn three. Shit. Uh, J-Dub Akron, uh,
Starting point is 01:06:50 how did you and your siblings get your nicknames? And what was one of your worst rebellious moments as a kid? When you grew up and when I grew up, there was no rebellious moments. Oh no. Like I said, all that, that,
Starting point is 01:07:00 that, or eight, whatever, whatever illnesses that you have now, that kids have now oh parents beat that up at you oh oh he he oh he he's he's just uh you know adhd no when they cut your ass enough it's amazing how all of a sudden they got your attention you can sit down and be still you wasn't moving you wasn't doing all that crazy stuff my uh my grandfather gave uh uh my sister there used to be a commercial uh liby they made they
Starting point is 01:07:31 made canned vegetables liby liby liby on the label label label you will like it like it like it on the table table table and she would always say that and my grandfather they started calling the liby my brother got the nickname spanky my grandfather gave him that gave him the nickname spanky i don't know how he got it but he had that name before i was even born so uh and so that's i mean most of us you know i got an aunt named punky um got one named top so but it's like if you're in the south you got a you're gonna get a nickname yeah if you from the south and i think that's where I got it from, gave a lot of my teammates nicknames, you're going to get nicknames. And they're going to stick.
Starting point is 01:08:13 And no matter, I mean, you get called somebody's nickname so much, you forget their real name. Name, yeah. Because me and Bucket be talking sometimes, but me and Burns, and they was like, man, such and such. I was like, who, what was it? I said, what did we call him in school? What was his nickname?
Starting point is 01:08:26 Or what did we call him on the team? Because I done forgot. I done called him so many times. Hell, I done called Bucket for the last 30 years. I sometimes forget that his name is Darryl. Right. But, yeah, I mean, if you're from the South, you're going to get a nickname. And more times than not, it's going to stick.
Starting point is 01:08:45 It's going to stick. It's going to stick. Dr. Frankie L. Bellamy, love the Looney Tunes shirt on.

According to reports, a man from San Diego ran 100 miles to his girlfriend's front door. Aaron Green, who began running marathons just two years ago, came up with a crazy idea to run from his home in San
Starting point is 01:10:48 Diego to his girlfriend's place in LA. The entire trek took 32 hours. Would you run 100 miles to your partner's house? Hell nah. Shit nah. Especially 100 goddamn miles. I don't
Starting point is 01:11:04 care if I am a goddamn marathon runner. Absolutely not. I want to take the shortest route possible. I ain't driving 100 miles. Man, listen. Hey, listen. You know what? Sometimes when you're in love, you do certain things.
Starting point is 01:11:20 And when you're in love, you do things you would never do if you wasn't. And that's one of them. Running a goddamn hundred goddamn miles. But listen, it's a part of what he does. I'm assuming he's a marathon runner because ain't nobody else in their right mind would do that. But it's romantic.
Starting point is 01:11:36 I think that's cute for him, for them, for me. Hell nah. You working with a monster then? Shit me. I'm just saying. I don't care what kind of monster she got. I ain't running no goddamn hundred miles. Ocho, I ain't driving a hundred miles.
