I've had it with these couples that sit on the same side of the booth. Yak mouths.
Starting point is 00:00:58 Stupid stick figure bumper stickers. Almond milk. You cannot milk an almond. Hi, I'm Jennifer. And I'm Angie. We call her Pumps, and we're the hosts of I've Had It. Pumps, tell the listener where they can find us. Apple, Spotify, Amazon, or wherever you get your podcasts. Nailed it. See you next Tuesday. Recorded live at Corolla One Studios with Adam Corolla and board-certified physician and addiction medicine specialist, Dr. Drew Pinsky.
Starting point is 00:01:30 You're listening to The Adam and Dr. Drew Show. Yeah, get it on. Got to get it on. Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da. Dr. Drew's board-certified physician, addiction medicine specialist. So, do a little hot love boat talk, if you don't mind. You good for that? Yeah, I haven't been keeping up.
Starting point is 00:01:50 Oh, damn. But I've seen every love boat episode. You mean you haven't done your deep dives and stuff when you watch them? What does keeping up mean for you? I've seen every episode of the love boat, but I haven't been keeping up. Got it. You've studied chemistry. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:02:09 But you haven't taken a quiz lately. It's like I went to the lectures, but I haven't been keeping up. Yes. No, it's like saying you learned all this stuff at some point, but you're not currently studying it. Got it. I thought that was clear. On the latest episode, Arthur Godfrey is on that. Did you see that one?
Starting point is 00:02:29 With the mini pearl? They were from the old folks' home. Yeah. I did a deep dive on him. And I'm just curious, when you saw him, did you have a reaction at all to him? Did you know him from our days in the early 60s and 70s television? I guess I would have to see a photograph of him to see if it elicited a response from me. From the 70s.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Well, he was sort of kind of like Charles Nelson Reilly. He was on a bunch of stuff back then. Yeah, yeah. And goddammit, his Wikipedia page was like 40 pages long. Yeah. And I started thinking – he had a famous radio show. Yeah, yeah. Conflicts and scandals and this and that.
Starting point is 00:03:16 No idea. And I started thinking about all the stuff that you miss culturally if you didn't live through it. There's so much stuff that gets left behind. I remember my father talking about certain big band singers and stuff. You know who that is? He was a movie star too. It was Dick Heyman or something. I'm like, there's Arthur Godfrey.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Is that familiar? Yeah, kind of. I mean, obviously this is 15 years before the love boat yeah he by the way was another one dead a couple years after the life they died right after they went on a love boat uh yeah but i had a couple reactions that one was he moved i thought about how uh what was that movie about the mobsters uh with uh some of the – that Scorsese did with some of the older actors. Anyway, they did some sort of CG. Drew never writes anything down or does his homework.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Irishman? Irishman. They did some sort of CGI with the actors. And when they're in fights, the one thing that struck me was, oh, they don't move like young men. They move like old men with their joints not quite move right and stuff. Arthur Godfrey moved like a young man at 75 or whatever he was, 72 in this thing. And I thought, oh, what is that? He's like getting around. I guess he had sort of a song and dance background. So it's interesting how people can kind of keep it. Well, but I mean, not...
Starting point is 00:04:40 No, no, it's an interesting point because when I was watching the Partridge family and I told you that, oh God, we were talking about him. Stupid of me, but the scarecrow. Bob Bolger, Ray Bolger. Ray Bolger. Ray Bolger. Ray Bolger. Ray Bolger was older when he did the Partridge Family. He was like jumping out of the back of a pickup truck and kind of moving around.
Starting point is 00:05:15 And he looked real spry, you know, and for a 68-year-old guy or whatever it is, he moved well. And I remember sort of taking notice that I was like, this guy's old and he moves well. It's striking if you pay attention. When you see it, it's like it gets you. Right. So there is something to being the song and dance or at least the dance. Having some dance, yeah. Having some dance and that kind of coordination and control and rhythm and stuff.
Starting point is 00:05:46 And doing it for prolonged periods of time, you move pretty well. Yeah. And it's also a kind of a repetition thing. Like eyeshadow box, I don't know, twice a week or something like that. But I was thinking about it the other day, and I was like, as I'm knocking on the door of 60, I was like, my hands move pretty good. Like I don't punch like an old man, you know. But it's just doing it, you know, periodically or semi-consistently. And not having joint problems.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Oh, yeah. But a lot of muscle memory. Yes, yes. I agree. So those guys could move when they were older with that muscle memory. 100%. Yes. 100%.
Starting point is 00:06:28 So it's just odd. And, yeah, it just struck me as interesting. You know, we talk about things, you and I, and we're always sort of amazed when the staff here doesn't know what we're talking about. It's like, oh, you're honest. But there is this phenomenon where things were so important in the time and they don't carry forward. Yes. But by the same token, there are things that do carry forward or do have a life of their own going forward. And it's sort of candy.
Starting point is 00:06:57 You know, maybe it has to do with a negative and a positive thing. Like it's 2024. We've never talked more about Hitler or slavery. Yeah. We never stopped talking about Hitler and slavery. I don't think Joe Biden makes a speech that doesn't involve Hitlerian whatever or slavery. When it would come up in the 70s, it was to make fun of. It was mocking.
Starting point is 00:07:23 It was Hogan's Heroes. Yeah. And then by the time the 90s came around, like it just didn't come up. the 70s, it was to make fun of. It was mocking. It was Hogan's Heroes. Yeah, and then by the time the 90s came around, like, it just didn't come up. At all. Well, it was like... No, it really didn't come up. Well, that's what I'm saying. Like, we would...
Starting point is 00:07:34 You wouldn't talk about slavery like you wouldn't talk about the Merrimack and the Monitor. You know, there's... Anyone know what the Merrimack and the Monitor is? Please, please, please. A little Civil War history you know but see that's not i wasn't born then either they're things people i'm not old like you pops yeah except for they're just shit you learn when you're 14 that i guess we've given up on
Starting point is 00:07:57 they were the first like iron clad ships and the one was on the Union side and one was on the Confederate side. Yeah, the first weird kind of, I wouldn't even call them battleships. One was almost a submarine with a cannon on the top. Yeah, but we don't talk about it to the point is these two guys don't know what the fuck the Merrimack and the Monitor are. And the reason they don't know what it is is because nobody talks about it because it's a bygone era and it doesn't really, it's neither here nor there in terms of today's shipbuilding and anything that you guys need to know. You know what I don't remember is they,
Starting point is 00:08:32 they, they eventually met and one won. I think the, the one with the single turret won. Yeah. Makes sense. And also like old Ironside wasn't an Ironside boat. Did you know that?
Starting point is 00:08:46 I guess I never thought. I just assumed it. No, I never. No. I think Ironside, first off, anyone who's worked with oak, it is fucking rock hard. Yeah, yeah. It is rock hard. I always assumed it meant the wood.
Starting point is 00:09:02 Yeah, that it was. Ironside is just. It was still everything it's just you know i think it's like a first boat that had like six inches of oak on the side of it it's like they couldn't cannonball couldn't do anything to it pretty sure anyway the monitor won the uh won the battle uh the point is is we didn't really need to talk about hitler we didn't need to talk about slavery just like we didn't need to talk about the Merrimack and the monitor. It was just something that happened that doesn't really affect us now.
Starting point is 00:09:34 You know what I mean? Now, hysterical politicians and fucking insane race hustlers never stop talking about Hitler and slavery, but it's only because they're trying to agitate the population and get votes, which is really irresponsible and kind of scary and weird. Do you think with all the anti-Semitism, we're going to see less Hitler talk? Wouldn't that be interesting? I don't know. He was a bad guy who's been dead for 90 years.
Starting point is 00:10:04 I don't know what else to do. I had 83 years or whatever it is. I don't know what else to tell you about Adolf Hitler. It's very strange how this country has brought a lot of stuff forward. Well, it's not – it's – Post-structuralism is the other thing. A French philosophy that the French have been done with for 75 years. And we've decided that's the way
Starting point is 00:10:26 to assess reality. Well, as we discussed in a previous show, Biden is talking about book banning. You know what I mean? Like we're getting into, you know, scenes of taking the books and burning them in the town square. You know what I mean? That's what they that's what they want. They want to live in a bygone era to scare dingbats into voting for them. But their policies suck. But don't worry. You know, the border will be porous and the schools won't work and gas will be expensive, but will not be burning any books in the town square and there'll be no rise of an Adolf Hitler who wants to return to slavery. So this basically what I'm saying is, look, vote for me. I'm not really going to do anything from a policy standpoint, but I will prevent this country from being taken over by Adolf Hitler and slavery being reinstituted, along with book burnings.
Starting point is 00:11:27 And women are, the gays and women will have a right to choose and not be marginalized. You know, like Whoopi said. Did you see Whoopi? It's great, right? All right, so he won't have to round up the gays. All right. And the journalists.
Starting point is 00:11:44 And the journalists. Now, I'm not going to do round up the gays. All right. And the journalists. And the journalists. Now, I'm not going to do anything in terms of energy prices or taxation or regulation. That'll be, well, we're never going to bring it up. We're going to focus on gays being rounded up. Now, this is appealing to a group. I think it would have been appealing to my mom. But the problem is, is the group dwindles every year
Starting point is 00:12:13 something goes by and the gays aren't rounded up. My daughter fell victim to it the first Trump presidency. She was like, my friends, they're going to get, they're going to round up. I was like, they're going to what? Where did you get that from? Well, we might as well play it just because it makes Whoopi seem insane. And frankly, it makes everyone at the desk seem insane because they just nod, as Tucker Carlson would say, in bovine agreement.
Starting point is 00:12:38 They just nod like fucking cows just chewing on some cud. You know what I mean? No one raises their hand and goes, I have no idea what you're talking about. All right. I'm going to be on day one, I'm going to be a dictator. Who says it to you, tells you. I'm going to put you people away. I'm going to take all the journalists.
Starting point is 00:12:55 I'm going to take all the gay folks. I'm going to move you all around and disappear you. If that's the country you want, you know who to vote for. If that's not the country you want, you have to make a decision. Oh, man. So I'd rather have the high gas prices and the open border and the sanctuary cities in the crime than move around gaping. By the way, if that was the choice, I would go for the high crime and the gas, but it's not the choice. Nobody's moving around.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Yeah, it's not the kids, not the droids. Yeah. Nobody's moving around. Yeah. It's bizarre. Now, the other part that I am fixated on, I'll let you take care of your business there, Jordan. I'll tell you what, I'm fixated. All right. This is my friends at the Wellness Company. I am part of the Chief Medical Board with Dr. Peter McCullough and other physicians
Starting point is 00:13:42 who are trying to get the word out about empowering patients, empowering you to take control of your health. I noticed that people misinterpret what Wellness Company is all about. They do have supplements that are very well thought out and high quality, but you can get telehealth and you can get emergency medical kits. We're going to have travel kits. These are prescription medication that you should have to use as you see fit with proper supervision and education. Almost 90% of pharmaceuticals are produced outside the U.S. Will you have what you need in the next crisis? With recent outbreaks of
Starting point is 00:14:17 respiratory illness, the white lung syndrome in the U.S., you should be prepared. Our wellness company's medical emergency kit have eight life-saving medications, amoxicillin, Z-Pak, ivermectin, a guidebook for safe use. I'm just tired of trying to preserve the autonomy of physicians. We now have to give it to the patients and let them. It's so simple. It reminds me back on Loveline days when I was like, people should have this information. Why aren't people talking to young people about STDs and this thing we were calling grids? They should be talking to them. How dare you? Well, they should have medication now too that's simple to use. And people understand these things. Take control of your health with the wellness company's medical emergency kit. Again, from tick bites to COVID
Starting point is 00:14:59 to bioterrorism, every scenario is covered. These are common antibiotics, common medication. You should have them and keep an eye out for the wellness company. They have more coming your way of things you should have to have on hand without having to spend a ton of money interacting with the medical system. Right, Emi? That's right. Go to twc.health.ads and grab your medical emergency kit right now. That's twc.health.ads.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Code ADS saves you 10% at checkout. Don't wait until you need it. Take control of your health today with the Wellness Company's Medical Emergency Kit. Don't you agree with me that people have stuff? I mean, do you know how to use a Z-Pak, Adam? Are you sure you know? You're a doctor. You see a doctor.
Starting point is 00:15:37 I don't get why everyone goes to the doctor for everything. I think people understand what these things are, how they work, how to use them. Just a little bit of guidance. And there's telehealth behind it if you need it. And there you go. We're actually getting our medical kits soon. Good. We've already ordered them.
Starting point is 00:15:50 Excellent. All right. willful misinterpretations of things that are pretty clear, which I find fascinating. Usually hysteria, right? It's frustrating, but it's also kind of fascinating, and it does fall under the heading of chick think a lot of the time, although many men will definitely participate in it because remember you know we live in california we had mayor garcetti chick think we have gavin
Starting point is 00:16:33 newsom chick think and now we have karen bass mayor chick think you know and it's all they're all that's two out of three are dudes but they think like chicks and they react like chicks. They sort of – that's the way they approach things. Process, not solution. Not – opposite of pragmatism. They like the process. They don't like – results are sort of neither here nor there. But discussion groups on it are definitely important. Yeah. So when people miss, you know, you know, Trump said inject bleach into your veins and, you know, good people on both sides and all this kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:17:11 It's a willful misinterpretation by people who are in the news. Now, you could say, well, Whoopi Goldberg's not a news reporter, but she has a job where she sits for an hour every day and interprets the news. You know what I mean? And then dispatches it to a large group of people who tend to believe what she says, or at least believe she believes what she said. You know, Trump from day one said he was going to be a dictator. A nine-year-old can, if shown the tape with Sean Hannity, can decipher that. He said he was going to be a dictator from day one, but only for one day. And he was going to close the border and drill. Which, by the way, two things a president can do without being a dictator, because look no further than Biden, who opened
Starting point is 00:18:06 the border and stopped the drilling. So if that's dictatorial, well, then look no further than Biden. But so he said for one day only, and he said, I'm going to do two things that have that are within the rights of a president have nothing to do with the dictator. So Whoopi Goldberg, many people at MSNBC and CNN, and many people on the left, reporters and politicians and the like, understood that as him saying out loud he was planning on being a dictator. Now, they don't believe it is what I'm saying. And that's the disappointing part. That's the part that I didn't really anticipate. I didn't anticipate Whoopi
Starting point is 00:18:53 Goldberg making an ass of herself. You know what I mean? Like in life. I didn't, you know, and I, I would never, never engage in that. And, and I would And it would be weird to me if somebody said something that was sort of hyperbolic about, oh, I wish this guy was dead or something. I go, he said he's planning on killing him. You know what I mean? Like a willful misinterpretation. Willful. Like not, oh, I was confused. You know damn well what he said.
Starting point is 00:19:26 And so does everyone who's reporting on it. And yet you're going to twist it now. But you see, they don't just do it with him, though. Oh, they'll do it with anybody. I mean, they do. They're doing it all the time. And he and he says they're going to do it. And then they do it. Listen, the young turds said that I shouldn't i don't believe but kids should get fed you know or whatever it is i i couldn't in my when they were breaking down the game film they were playing audio of me saying i don't care about the money i want you to take care of your own children it's that's what this is about it not about pay. And then they'd come back to the studio and go, Adam Carolla says he doesn't want to pay.
Starting point is 00:20:08 They need to be mocked. Well, I just call them the young turds. So, I don't think that's their actual name. No, it's not? No. They're fucking idiots. Now, the scary part is they're not dumb.
Starting point is 00:20:24 They hear a tape of me. It's all laid out. I couldn't have been clearer, and they willfully misinterpret it. But they're dumb in the sense that they physically played the tape of me saying I don't care about the thing they're talking about, which is money. Again, it's never what you say. It's always what somebody says you said. Is that some sort of debate technique or something? Where did this come from?
Starting point is 00:20:47 Is it just social media creating that? What I would say is I think I would consider it below me to do that to somebody. I would never go, I'm going to tape the young turds and try to misinterpret something they said. As always, maybe we should. Maybe it is fight fire with fire. I mean, maybe that's the only way. Well, I didn't issue an apology.
Starting point is 00:21:10 I told them to fuck right off and that they're hacks, but they're not journalists. And neither is anybody who interprets Donald Trump, regardless of what you think of Donald Trump. Right. Regardless. There's a great okay i'll finish regardless of what you think of donald trump anyone who interprets what he said is announcing he's going to be a dictator you must turn in your journalistic license but he said it he said it right there i can play the tape sorry're human beings. There's nuance and there's many other things that factor in. How do you know he doesn't mean it?
Starting point is 00:21:48 He's blah, blah, blah. There is a great clip that Emmy can find of the great John McKay, the football coach. You know, USC. Yeah. Then went on to be the first coach of whom? Hang on. Hang on. I remember seeing him in the sun.
Starting point is 00:22:15 So it was like, was it Colorado? Was it Denver? Or was it where? The first coach. Expansion team. The first coach. Expansion team. So you can listen to him being interviewed about his offense's performance.
Starting point is 00:22:32 Buccaneers? Yes. Yeah. There you go. And he was asked about the execution of his offense. Okay? It's a classic tape. Now, he was a funny guy. He was like a little Yogi Berra.
Starting point is 00:22:46 And his son was a quarterback. Was it J.K. McHugh? No, his son was a wide receiver. Wide receiver. Come on, you went to USC, Drew. Yeah. Wake up. All right, we'll find it, and then I'll explain.
Starting point is 00:22:58 We'll see what Whoopi Goldberg would say about it. And first, I'll tell you about a friend, Jordan Harbinger. You're about to hear a preview of the Jordan Harbinger show with the world's best counterfeiter. How long does it take to print $250 million? Five months. It needs to be worthwhile. It's going to need to be perfect. Perfect. 12,500 kilos or over eight Toyota Camrys or six Ford F-150s. That is multiple metric tons of cash. You must have been stoked, man, because you knew you were going to put $20 bills all over all of that and then just never work again. Yes. By design, there are people specifically looking for you all the time. This is all they do. You can tell them whatever you want.
Starting point is 00:23:52 They're not dummies. I mean, this is as high as it goes. It's the stuff of the line. For more on how Frank Barasa printed his own fortune and got away with it, check out episode 488 on The Jordan Harbinger Show, anywhere you get your podcasts. I'm also blanking on the name of the quarterback who became the director for athletics at SC. Pat Hayden? Pat Hayden.
Starting point is 00:24:14 Why do I know more about your alma mater than you do? Dude, here's what you don't know. I've studied. No, no, no. What you don't know is you get attached to your undergraduate school. The graduate school, you really don't get that attached to it. It's interesting. Oh, I get you get attached to Amherst.
Starting point is 00:24:31 Exactly. Okay. How are you guys doing over there? How are the Lord Jeffs doing? Super woke? Still cutting checks to them? You can't call them the Lord Jeffs. Oh, that's right.
Starting point is 00:24:40 The mammoths. Because Lord Jeff was a soldier of the queen who invented germ warfare. I was laughing. I don't know where. I can't remember. Remember five years ago the University of I don't know where had to move a boulder because it was racist? People are catching on to this now. I've been screaming about it for a million
Starting point is 00:25:05 years like six years ago America was like well maybe the boulder was kind of racist maybe it should be moved at great expense this thing that people enjoyed you know what I'm saying yes yeah the boulder went then the statues went then oh god alright
Starting point is 00:25:21 John McKay I just I marvel everybody and I really marveled the adults. It's like I said, whenever I hear Nancy Pelosi, when I'm talking, I'm like, you think people should be tearing down monuments and statues on their own? I'm not into jewelry. They're going to do what they're going to do. I don't like heaps of eggs. They're going to do what they're going to do? People need to – like I said, like what people needed to do was go, look, I vote for these people. That's a dumb answer. You can't say that. You're in a position of power. People at night are – mobs are taking over these statues and tearing them. It's dangerous.
Starting point is 00:26:05 They're going to do what they're going to do is and then how would you apply that to january 6th would same answer just people running around just doing what they're going to do or maybe might you have a slightly different thought and then here's a bigger question you're basically just admitting that all the people that are out tearing everything down and burning everything and tearing the statue down are your constituency because if you if you thought for a second those were trump voters then you would not have that answer so you're you're basically saying the people looting and robbing and burning uh cnn and nancy pelosi you're going yeah those are kind of our people so we're just going to look the other way.
Starting point is 00:26:47 Kyle Rittenhouse, mm-mm, not him. All right, this is a famous tape. I think he's in a locker room or press conference, Emmy, if you're listening. He is asking John McKay what he thought about the execution of his offense. Is that findable? It was first season. We're currently searching. I'm currently looking at the Buccaneers Philly postgame interview right now.
Starting point is 00:27:17 Is that where it is? I'm trying to listen to it and see if they talk about it. You want me to just play for you? No, I want you to... What are you typing in, sir? Well, it's kind of hard to find just the interview itself. They have a lot of best ofs for John McKay.
Starting point is 00:27:33 I'm trying to scrub through it. It'll be in the best ofs. You can't search offensive... I literally search up offensive line, execution, everything. Well, don't do offensive line. Just do John McKay offense execution joke. Gotcha.
Starting point is 00:27:51 All right. Fair enough. But it seems like we just found a post-interview to scrub through, the chances of it being low. But I'm not sure. See, I don't know how the internet works. I do walk people through what to write because I feel like whatever it is I say
Starting point is 00:28:11 never fully gets converted. Yes. Is that correct? Well, I, for instance, didn't understand it would have been seen as a joke. I thought it was just him sort of being glib. I was trying to get onto it without giving. I tried to give as little away as possible.
Starting point is 00:28:34 So that's why I didn't want to do it. So maybe that clouded his ability. Is there somehow that's connected to the Philly game, or that's just a random? It's just a random clip. I'm just trying to scrub through him. But he's given 200 post-game interviews, so
Starting point is 00:28:49 the Philly thing wouldn't have been a good use of your time. We're watching an ad right now for the Mastro. Oh, okay. Did you watch Mastro? Now, what made that findable? Me saying the word joke? Actually, that's exactly what I switched out.
Starting point is 00:29:06 So you said John McKay, offense. Offense, joke, execution. Oh, okay. Before it just said offense, execution, whatever? Yeah. Okay. All right. This will support my Whoopi Goldberg thing.
Starting point is 00:29:20 Oh, we're tying it all together here. Yeah. All right. Has the maestro put his wand down? Yeah, but we're trying to find the all together here. Yeah. All right. Has the maestro put his wand down? Yeah, but we're trying to find the right clip here. Sorry. Just give me one more second. Listen, I'll watch anything John McKay says.
Starting point is 00:29:33 And by the way, if you play his best of, it'll just be in his best of reel. And it's all funny because he's a funny coach. I remember him smiling and laughing a lot. It's funny. My memory wouldn't have put him as funny. Well, funny for a football coach. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:29:52 Sorry. I can bring it back. Sorry. Sound, please. I've been playing tackle this poorly in football my whole life. 27 years of coaching. That's the worst exhibition tackle. So that's what you think of your professional debut. What's it like in the professional ring? Is that the joke?
Starting point is 00:30:15 I don't think so. No, the joke is offensive execution. Yeah. It'll be in the thing. It's got to be. It's got to be. But he would say stuff like, well, we didn't block what we made up for by not tackling. Yeah, that was kind of funny.
Starting point is 00:30:39 That's how he would speak. Now, that offensive execution joke has to just be there. Audio is so bad. Maybe you could tell us the joke. I'll tell you the joke, except for I know it's so findable. But nothing comes up, huh? So that's what happened. So you're putting in John McKay, interview. I think I know exactly what you're talking about because I see it in text. I just don't have a video for it. That's what I'm trying to find.
Starting point is 00:31:03 Oh, you're trying to find a vid of it. Oh. But if it's correct, I'll read to you what I have. There's audio of it. Oh, there's audio. Okay. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:31:11 I'll throw it up. I know there is, because here's all I know. Everything. Because I've seen it all. So then I know it exists, and I get into this with Chris all the time. He'll go like,
Starting point is 00:31:23 it doesn't, we can't find. And I'll go, you can. It does. It's there. this with Chris all the time. He'll go like, it doesn't, we can't find, and I'll go, you can. It does. It's there. There's something about the internet that I know the least about, but it's why I sort of know the most about. All right. If we have it, we'll play it. If we don't,
Starting point is 00:31:38 I'll say it. You know, I was speaking to a Detroit fan yesterday, or not yesterday, earlier, across the weekend. Yeah, that's your wife. And I was telling him about, again, this is my fascination with things that don't make it into the present moment. They don't make it through history to now. And I said, have you ever heard of the Paper Lion?
Starting point is 00:31:59 Paper Lion, I've never heard of it. George Plimpton. Yeah, and never. I said, you need to watch the movie. And do you remember who played George Plimpton in the movie? Who are you asking me? I'm wondering if you remember. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:32:10 Maybe Alan Alda? Which is crazy, right? Isn't it kind of wild that Alan Alda was in that? Was that well before MASH, right? It was before. I'd say before MASH. Yeah. I don't know if it was well before MASH.
Starting point is 00:32:23 Okay. It was definitely a few years before MASH. I don't know. it was well before MASH. Okay. It was definitely a few years before MASH. 68, I don't know. Was it? Yeah. You looked it up? Yeah. Yeah, he played author George Clinton.
Starting point is 00:32:33 I thought it was wonderful. We'd probably watch it now and not like it quite as much, but I don't know. Wait, so I went down a rabbit hole on Alex Karras, right, who was a famous offensive lineman or defensive lineman for the Lions. And not that I went a rabbit hole on the internet. I just went a rabbit hole with this guy going, you ever heard of how Monday Night Football got going and who the players were? How about the Mary Mac and the monitor?
Starting point is 00:33:00 I know, I know, I know. So I literally – so riddle me this. So it was Howard Cosell, right? Let's talk about the original – what made Monday Night Football a famous institution was that we're the announcers on Monday night, I would say. And in fact, it was a novelty playing a game on Monday night. Yeah. And they don't know who Howard Cosell was. So we start from that.
Starting point is 00:33:20 Yeah. Listen, a lot of this stuff is plausible know plausible deniability you know i don't know but but it's also it's like i don't when i was 17 i i knew who louis armstrong was you know i mean i knew who these people were we kind of made it our business and we all more so i would say i knew who dick van dyke was and jack Gleason. It was sort of more that kind of thing. But it was also a mindset. And I think we'll get into it the next show. Maybe, Emmy, you'll find that clip for the next show. But before we go real quick, who was the original cast? I was trying to put it together. And I put it as, you tell me if this is right or
Starting point is 00:34:01 wrong. Ready? Alex Harris, Don Meredith, Gifford, Frank Gifford, Howard Cosell. Were there four of them? Don Meredith. I cannot tell you who the first night was, and I can't remember. But I love Dandy Don. Turn out the lights, the party's over. Was he drunk when he was doing it? He sounded it sometimes.
Starting point is 00:34:24 It didn't matter because it was freezing and who gives a shit and we're having fun. Were Gifford and Meredith on at the same time? I don't think Gifford was there at the beginning. Okay, I don't think so either. I have it as Howard and Dandy Don and I can't remember the third person. And even Alex Karras came in
Starting point is 00:34:39 a little bit later, right? Well, I don't know Drew because we'll have to look it up and either figure it out, write it down. I don't remember the opening night of these people pass through the show. All right. Go to mcrowell.com for all the live shows coming up.
