This is an I-Heart podcast.
Guaranteed Human.
Readers, Katie's finalists, publicists.
We have an incredible new episode this week for you guys.
We have our girl Hillary Duff in here,
and we can't wait for you to hear this episode.
They put on Lizzie McGuire at 2 a.m.
Video on Demand.
This guy's bobble-a-m.
2 a.m.
Whatever time it is, Lizzie McGuire.
And I'm like...
A wild batch you were with.
It was like a first, like,
closet moment from me where I was like...
You're like, I don't feel like she's hot, like the rest of that.
No, no, no.
I was like, she's beautiful.
But I'm appreciating her in a different...
way than these boys are. I'm not like,
but listen to Los Coleristas on the Iheart Radio app,
Apple Podcasts, or whatever you get your podcast.
Hi, I'm Bob Pittman, Chairman and CEO of IHard Media,
and I'm kicking off a brand new season of my podcast,
Math and Magic, stories from the Frontiers of Marketing.
Math and Magic takes you behind the scenes of the biggest businesses
and industries while sharing insights from the smartest minds in marketing.
Coming up this seasonal Math and Magic,
CEO of Liquid Death Mike Cesario.
People think that creative ideas are like these light bulb moments that happen when you're in the shower.
Or it's really like a stone sculpture.
You're constantly just chipping away and refining.
Take to Interactive CEO, Strauss Selnick, and our own chief business officer, Lisa Coffey.
Listen to Math and Magic on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.
On paper, the three hosts of the Nick Dick & Poll show are geniuses.
We can explain how AI works, data centers, but there are certain things.
that we don't necessarily understand.
Better version of Play Stupid Games,
win stupid prizes.
Yes.
Which, by the way,
wasn't Taylor Swift,
who said that for the first time.
I actually,
I thought it was.
I got that wrong.
But hey,
no one's perfect.
We're pretty close, though.
Listen to the Nick,
Dick, and Paul show
on the IHeart Radio app,
Apple Podcast,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
Are you yelling?
They keep that music up real out sometimes.
I just want to hear when I finally
come to the proper audio level.

Stay tuned
You'll hear more about Draft Kings
And all it has to offer
Throughout the show
Draft Kings, the crown is yours
I'd like to give you guys
Three numbers
The numbers are three
One
and zero
Now we're not playing bingo
We're not playing a lottery
Yeah
What does 3 1 and 0 mean to you?
310
It's got to be an area code
No, what does 310 mean to you?
310. That's when I smoke.
I don't know what that means.
What does three minutes and 10 seconds left mean to you?
Oh, God.
Okay, now I know where this is going.
When there's three minutes and 10 seconds left in a game,
don't say anything about the outcome of the game.
Last night, we're at the freaking game.
I'm a massive Arkansas Razorback fan.
If you don't know, I'm a massive fan.
We go, me and my wife, Eddie, his son.
We got four tickets inside the Arkansas section.
It was amazing.
We're right behind the bench.
And it's also the loser game.
We're usually a good team this year, not our best year.
Arkansas playing Vandy, guys.
Vanderbilt.
Yeah, but they already beat us this year too.
They did.
So what happens is we're up by six or so with 310 left after a big comeback.
We were down 12.
We're up six.
Eddie goes, what time do we play tomorrow?
But that could have meant anything, guys.
No, he said we.
We're playing golf?
No, he goes, we weren't playing golf.
You don't know that.
He's talking about the tournament.
And if you win, you play again the next day.
He goes, what time do we play again tomorrow?
And I look at him and I go 310.
That's how much time was on the clock.
And you know what happened right then?
Freaking Vanderbilt shot the eyes out of it.
There's a little shift in the game for sure.
Didn't we just talk about this?
No, like literally this week.
No, no, guys, you can break it down however you want.
No.
What we talked about is saying like, wow, here comes Arkansas.
Vanderbill hits a three, or hits a two with like one second left.
Boom, game goes at overtime.
I didn't say anything.
Unbelievable.
But a planner would just say what a planner says.
You could wait until after three minutes and go,
okay, now what times the game?
If you win, you can't, with me, you can't declare,
hey, since it looks like we're going to win, we've already won,
what time do we play tomorrow?
Okay, and your theory is that I jinx the game?
Absolutely.
Right, and that's, because I have enough power to affect the game in my mind.
The last two times that's happened, it was absolute disaster.
Yeah.
Now, luckily, we went to overtime.
Yeah, theory bunk.
Two of your good friends.
I got two texts going, I can't believe Arkansas just lost that game.
Thankfully, yes.
To offset mine?
Yes.
Thankfully, it countered his or the game was over.
No chance.
The game was over.
My saying just bunked your whole theory.
That it doesn't matter what you say.
That's not true.
You can say, oh, we're going to win by 20.
This is awesome.
And that's what sank the game.
and thank God have other friends who message me going,
I cannot believe they just lost the game.
They're point guards.
Real sports fans that are friends.
Their point guard is who freaking almost lost that game for Arkansas.
You. You.
At what mark?
310, because as soon as he said it, I looked up and I said three minutes and 10 seconds.
If the game goes downhill starting right now, that's on you.
This guy, Kevin, was just number five.
He's the point guard for Vanderbilt.
I mean, he's their stud.
Dude, he was making impossible shot after impossible shot.
After he said that?
All game, though. He was lightning quick, but he just turned it on.
And it was wild how good he was. But he wasn't even that good until Eddie said it.
He must have heard me. We were so close to the court.
That's twice it's happened this week.
Yeah, I got to stop doing it.
As a rule, guys, we have to not do that. I would never during a Dallas Cowboys game.
What did I say? I said, what time do we play tomorrow?
I thought it was double elimination.
You did not. He knew it wasn't.
You never know, dude. You have to stop denying.
Okay, I said it. I was planning. In my mind, I'm like, dude, this is awesome.
We're going to have a game tomorrow.
And you could have asked three minutes and ten seconds later.
But we should all live under the rule.
Don't assume somebody's team is won until they've won the game.
I would never message you during a Cowboys game in the middle of the fourth quarter when you're up four, even if you have the ball.
And I'm like, let's go.
Cowboys win another.
I have too much respect for the game.
Not you.
Too much respect for the game.
I didn't text you, dude.
You're just in right next to me.
It's almost like I said it out loud and you heard me.
You asked me a question.
What time do we play tomorrow?
Hey, and then as soon as we won, I was like, hey, what time do we play tomorrow?
Let's go!
We did win, but thankfully it was counterbalanced by two other real friends that knew the struggle.
Because it doesn't matter, guys.
It did matter, and you saw it twice this week.
That's all.
We should have, yeah.
Thoughts?
We were keeping track last night.
Reed and I were at dinner, and we were saying.
What dinner were you guys at?
Kevin's birthday dinner, we weren't invited to.
Hey, we saw our boy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Aubrey, Head coach.
Did I?
Oh, Bruce.
Bruce.
Bruce was there?
Yeah, he walked in with his wife.
Did you say hi to him?
Of course.
Oh, you did?
That's cool.
Yeah, I didn't know if I should or not, and I was like, screw it, I'm going.
I was a couple drinks.
It was your birthday.
Yeah, I was like, why not?
Is that what you started with?
It's my birthday.
I was like, hey, Bruce is my birthday.
No, I walked over.
I was like, hey, and I was wearing too much access.
You say Bruce?
You say Coach Pearl.
I think I said.
Okay, thank God.
Bruce!
Yo, B-Daw!
Bob, blah, Bob, Bob, Bo, Pearl.
Be Pearl.
That you?
And then I was like, hey, you know, we came over here a month ago or so with too much access.
I'm a producer for Bobby Bones, blah, blah, blah.
And he was like, oh, yeah.
Yeah, he had no idea, you guys.
He doesn't remember it.
Oh, no.
That's the worst.
You know, it's just like, Bruce.
Cool, yeah.
He's like, this is my wife.
And so I met her.
And then he asked me, what's good on this menu?
He was still nice, though.
Oh, super nice.
What's good on this menu?
So he was sitting down already?
Yeah.
He was like, he just sat down.
A small talk.
Oh, Kevin.
If there's no food in front of him, you're okay.
You're okay.
Literally just sat down and it was right next to us.
Not like I walked across the restaurant.
Oh, Booth.
Reed, was it awkward watching it?
No, I didn't actually see it.
Okay.
Well, why?
Where were you?
It was like you had to get up and go around a corner.
Yeah.
No, Kevin, I think it was a table right now.
No, no, no, no.
There was like a booth, right?
And at the end of that booth, right around there is a table.
And it was a very first table that they set up.
It was right there.
I believe Reed, because Reed doesn't know how to lie.
Right.
He should have been like...
And when he lies, he stutters a little bit.
No, I don't.
He's too kind.
I was saying you should have said,
you remember the guy you said,
can't coach.
Reed's so kind.
That's that's me.
He's like, dude,
he deals with some media on every day,
so he doesn't remember me.
I thought about,
because, you know,
Janai Broome, he follows me on Instagram.
We follow each other on Instagram.
Thought about DM and be like,
dude, welcome to Nashville.
Want to hang out?
You have extra time?
Like, anything you want,
man?
Probably not a good idea.
You don't think so?
Well, you'd have been left on red, which, by the way, I've been left on red recently by...
Barry?
Barry?
Well, but I don't...
Barry Sanders.
Yeah, I forgot about that.
Dang it.
Sorry.
So there's two now?
There's two that he's...
Oh, no.
Sorry.
Barry Sanders left me on red on Twitter.
Yeah.
Because I was like, hey, we're going to Oklahoma State.
That's your old stomping grounds.
Yeah, I know.
I said, hey, we're shooting this series.
We'll talk to you about your time at Oklahoma State.
you know, if whatever.
I just thought maybe he'd get a message back
because he follows me.
I'm like, hey, man, can't do it.
It's just red.
Dang, dang, dang, dang.
So who's the second one?
Do you want to hear what I wrote to him, though?
Oh, the second one hurts worse.
Okay.
I want to hear this.
The second one sucks.
Now we're just going on a list of people left on red.
The second one, when you said that, it hurt my heart a little bit because I have one.
And I wasn't not going to share it.
I just try not to think about it.
I've repressed that feeling.
So you're going to read us the exact message you sent Barry?
And then I'll read you the one.
I sent the other person to.
Maybe.
It might be too embarrassing,
but that's okay.
That's what we do here.
Okay, here we go.
This is Barry.
Hey, Barry.
B dog.
Because again, he follows me, right?
Yeah.
He doesn't even have as many followers as I do.
He needs to bow down.
No?
Yeah.
I don't know.
All right.
Hey, Barry.
Go under your old stomping grounds.
OSU on Monday to shoot our sports show on podcasts.
It's called Too Much Access.
I'll link some places.
we've done in the last year.
We just return from Florida State,
and we're heading over to these other places coming up.
We'd love to swing up to Michigan where he lives.
I didn't say where he lives.
We have to swim up to Michigan,
and sit with you for about half an hour.
Wherever you want, you can even run us through some drills or game tape,
but we want to talk about your career.
This is hurting, dude.
It's a lot of detail in this message.
And then I sent the Dropbox.
It texted me if you're interested.
We'd love to spend the time.
Oh, God.
See, I'm what am I supposed to do?
Because I don't know how long enough to be like,
B-Dog, hit me back.
No, you're right.
But, I mean, it just seems like you put so much work into this message, you know?
Like, here's link here.
It's still a little subtle.
No, no, no.
I'm not saying there's too much.
I'm just saying, like, there's a lot of effort on one side and the other one reads it.
Yeah, okay.
I had no.
I don't have a good enough relationship to have anything except one shot.
Barry Sanders is not going to small talk with me on chat.
So it's how can I.
He's human too, man.
It doesn't matter.
How can I, he's not that human.
You watch him?
No, no, not in the football field.
How can I express to him what I want to express.
in the most concise way, but precise way as possible,
and giving them all the information.
No, I get it.
I get it.
And it was well-worded, good message.
Because I was also like, this is your,
we're going to your place, let me think about you.
Anyway, I got it on red.
I mean, hey, at the end of the day,
you shot your shot with Jerry Jones in an email.
Like, what happened there?
That's true.
Just an email to a random email address on the Dallas Cowboy website.
You never know.
Amazing.
So I was left on red on another one.
Yeah, what is this?
it sucks
basketball
let me find it first
is it because you thought you were tighter
it's not that I thought we were tighter
it's that I thought we would be tight enough
for at least a response
okay
to be fair though sometimes I'll read a message
and be like you know what I don't have time to respond to that
so I'll respond later
and then I forget about it
okay yeah I always like
check it back on unread just so I don't do that
but yeah you can do that
The text messages, I don't know about Instagram or social media.
Okay.
When I read, this is embarrassing.
Should we play a game?
I'll read the message.
Should we play a game?
And then you can guess who it is.
Okay.
Okay, this is good.
At some point, when you guess it, buzz in with your name.
I'll stop the reading.
One guess?
You get one guess.
But if you miss it, we get to thumping the balls.
No.
Well, I'm not playing this game.
Otherwise, you'll just jump in and meet.
Anyway.
There has to be a punishment.
Yes.
But if you get it right, you get to thumpion.
thump somebody else in the balls. Oh, how about all you guys in the balls? Reeds and sweatpants.
That's too many balls. Okay. Here we go. Buzz in with your name.
Yo, dude. Hope you're good. You're still in Tampa in the off season. I'm coming down to do a couple
private corporate comedy shows. We're going to go work out with Logan Ryan one of the days for my show.
Eddie. Eddie. I'm ready to thump. I'm going to thump all you guys in the balls. That's Baker Mayfield.
Baker. That's what I thought. I know. All right.
Hold, let me finish it.
I said, you're around March 22nd.
Great season.
If you're not around, no big deal.
We're doing episodes of this show.
We love to throw the ball around with a little bit.
Also, fun fact, I have my, I had my gaso as goat shirt.
He made those.
Yeah, yeah.
He literally made those.
Did you send him a picture?
No, I didn't do that.
Selfie.
Because that's what he made when he went back, and that's where I got the shirt.
And I said, I have my gassos shirt on.
Patty and DJer family.
And then I sent my cell phone number.
and nothing.
How long ago?
Red.
Friday.
So a week.
And that's red?
It's a scene.
Scene, yeah.
You probably just, you know.
Totally.
I'm going to come back to this.
Should I hit him up with a cool cool?
Oh, no.
Can't wait.
Then it gets weird.
Oh, hit him up with a U-Up.
That's even a weirder.
And then just trying to get your attention.
Do I just have to consider this dead?
Hey, circling back around.
Yeah, but what?
What if he comes back?
No, Reeves.
Per my last message.
Are you doing the little finger emoji?
Aeros.
Maybe he'll get back to the week of.
I don't know, dude.
No, that's this week.
I know, but we still got a couple days.
And you got to think these superstars, they get so many messages, dude.
You're getting lower and lower.
And he's got paid.
He went on vacation, probably.
That's it.
He's fishing.
He's a big contract.
They did it point arrow, point finger up.
Did you see this?
pushing this to your end
Who are you calling?
My friend who just saw him at the gym
Yesterday?
Oh
She may not answer
He just goes to a random gym?
In Tampa
He was at the gym
And she messaged me
And she said
Gronk and Bakke are here today
What?
Gronk too?
Yeah
What?
What gym is this?
That's got to be a 24-hour fitness
And I said
Or a planet
But she lives in Tampa
Right she's not here obviously
They don't judge there
And I said
I said Baker didn't respond to my DM
she said rude and that was it
dang okay I'm gonna respond to Baker
I'm gonna say anyway

Hold on.
Congrats on the due deal.
You get thrown a little joke in there?
I was just going to put like go.
No, no, no, no.
Go bucks?
No, don't do.
Anyway, congrats on the new deal.
Routing for you next season.
Can I borrow 100 bucks?
I don't.
Just say a joke.
He just got a deal.
Hey, can I borrow a K?
How about this, rooting for you next season?
Send me a helmet.
A band.
Send me a helmet.
Yeah.
You sound a little needy, dude.
Send me a signed helmet for the studio.
Now.
Hell no.
Is this how you, like, talk with normal people?
No.
I don't really, the only time, okay, here's my connection to Baker.
He was, like, roommates with DJ.
Yeah, yeah.
They were, like, and DJ's my brother-in-law.
They, like, ran together.
At Oklahoma?
I believe.
Yes.
Did he run from the cops with him?
No, that was in Arkansas.
Oh, that was in Fayetteville, actually.
Was it really?
Yeah.
Who ran him from the cops?
Baker.
Baker.
Yeah.
I remember that.
Let me call DJ real quick.
He may be practicing.
You hear it, ding.
What's up, Bobby?
Ding!
Maybe I just FaceTime.
Because if DJ, he may not have a relationship with him anymore.
But let's see.
Hey.
Oh, man, good.
He's in the toilet.
Look, we're recording right now.
So anything you can't say and will be used against you by millions of people.
Hey.
When did you become a Thunder guy?
Four years ago when I met Caitlin.
It should make me watch games.
And I took her to games.
Not a bad time to be rolling with the Thunder.
Well, now it's not a bad time, but it has been prior.
Hey, how about the Razor Valley?
Oh, yeah, we were there last night.
Hey, Eddie in the game.
Oh, no, no.
DJ is not true, dude.
It is true.
During the game, Eddie goes, it's three minutes and 10 seconds left.
We're out by six.
Eddie goes, hey, what times are our game tomorrow
and the right things when we start?
I said the game.
Yes, that's right.
Look at DJ's face.
I said the game, bro.
Go ahead.
What do you think about that?
Never.
Hey, there was a girl on our team
that threw a perfect game
and like I was trying to tell myself
that I even think about it.
Not even say it, don't even think about it.
Yeah.
And Eddie's like, what time do we show up tomorrow
for our victory?
Hey, DJ, I thought it was dope.
And then we're up like
with 10 seconds left, and then they do the impound pass,
and they tie it up.
And you're like, oh, my God.
Hey, I thought it was double elimination, man.
No, he didn't.
No, he didn't.
Okay, I got a question for you because we're doing this show.
And I was talking about, I sent Baker a message on Instagram
because we follow each other, and he left me on scene.
And you know, whatever, that's showbiz, baby.
I get it.
But how did you know Baker?
Jackson, you.
Who?
Jack Neal is one of my best friends.
He played football.
He started at Pitt State, and then he transferred to OU.
And when he was redshirting at OU, Baker was redshirting too, and they were roommates throughout college.
And so you knew him because he was roommates with your best friend.
Yeah.
And is, okay, so.
But does DJ know him?
I guess any more.
Do you know him anymore?
I haven't talked.
some while, but like, I mean, we know each other.
You know what I mean?
If I saw him, it would be like, who the heck are you, you know?
My, my gassau is goat shirt.
How, how is that affected by Baker?
What do you mean?
That shirt that I had on that says gassau equals goat.
Yeah.
Didn't he make those?
I don't know, did he?
Yeah, he's wearing.
Just hang up on him, dude.
We're done.
Yeah.
Yes.
Credibility.
I don't know if he made him, but I know that he's,
When he threw the first pitch at my mom's game, he wore it.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, I do think Gasso's goat, both generations, but mainly the younger generation.
Right.
Yeah.
Without the G, without the O, baby, that's the goat.
What is he think about, yeah, taking the G and the O out of it?
That's when you're the real goat.
Take the O out, baby.
Oh, yeah, I hear you.
Okay, so Baker left me on scene.
Any tips?
I'm trying to get him to acknowledge my presence.
Do I keep going or just leave it alone?
You could say, you're not responding
because I'm an Arkansas fan
and you had trouble in Fayetteville.
Oh, my gosh.
That'll do it.
Well, listen, I know.
I've talked to him before online
because he was a big fan
because he went to high school
and like Travis.
So he listened to the show.
So we have that,
I just may not be a big bigger guy anymore, guys.
This may be a big.
Oh, no, we're bigger.
show, so, oh no.
I know. Hey, I'll tell you what,
you get a hundred-bill contract.
I know.
Did I say that?
DJ, that was my joke, dude.
Just be like, hey, can I borrow some money
since you got a big contract?
He likes it.
Hey, dude, you look ripped.
Are you working out?
No.
Okay.
All right.
It's carrying the baby.
Carrying it around?
Yeah.
You guys have your first conference games
this weekend?
At Auburn.
At Auburn.
Yeah.
Excited about that or no?
Yeah, man.
It's going to be fun.
I'll be challenging.
So I like that.
That's more fun to me.
All right.
Well, I'm going to send Baker a message.
I just wanted to check in.
See what you could help me with.
Who are you rocking with today?
Who you're rolling with?
What capacity?
Like, who's all there?
Me, Eddie, Mike D.
Kick off Kevin and Reed.
It's the whistles crew.
It's a good squad right there.
Do we have a name for that?
Yeah, 25 whistle, dude.
Hey, wherever you listen to podcast.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, we're called it.
Everytime.
Ever heard of it.
God damn.
You have a name.
We do.
We do.
We have an Instagram and everything.
Yeah. Yeah. We're on TV, too.
Our show's on TV now.
On Roku.
It's like we're the goons spot.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
Good luck.
All right.
Okay.
Well, there goes all your Baker stories.
One, he wasn't his roommate.
Two, I don't know if he made the shirt.
But he didn't know.
And I was told he did.
Okay.
Because he's wearing it.
And I got it.
I was like, what is this shirt?
They're like, well, Baker,
made him and brought him and wore him.
Whatever.
Don't even care.
He's wearing one.
Yeah, we'll stick with that.
But the roommate thing makes sense.
Yeah.
His roommate with DJ's best friend, so he hung out with them.
Close enough.
Yeah.
Basically his roommate.
They hung out a lot together.
Right?
Yada, yada.
We play telephone, you know?
I mean, in college, everyone's roommates, right?
You lose some stuff.
Okay, so I'm going to say,
uh,
saw your deal.
Do the money joke.
Okay.
Dude, the money joke is so freaking lame.
But that's perfect.
He might be like, that's so stupid.
I got a response.
Saw your deal.
Congrats.
That's 100 million more if you let us do this show.
Congrats.
Loam me.
I don't know.
Lo me 100 bucks sounds so freaking lame.
Can you spot me 100 bucks?
Y'all don't like that one.
You're telling me what's funny.
Yeah.
How many times?
I don't think that's funny.
Bones, how many times we're hanging out and you're like, dude, that's funny?
I'm going to use that in my stand-up.
No, never.
It sounds like you're trying too hard.
Mike.
That's the whole thing.
His whole message is trying too hard.
No, it wasn't.
I was like if you're around, no big deal.
We're going to be it down there.
Yeah.
Yeah, but added the response to no response.
Anyways.
Written, it's not funny.
Written, it's not funny.
If he reads it, he's going to be like, what's he talking about?
So what would you write here?
Yeah, the context is totally different.
I almost think you'd just leave it, man.
Let it go.
Let it go.
Or wait until next week and be like, hey, just reaching out again.
We'll be there on Friday.
No, okay.
Or I delete it because I can delete what's sent.
Nope.
And then rescind it, and it looks like there's only been one message.
He's a, nope.
I like that more.
And he's like,
Oh, maybe he did forget to reply.
Because I can delete the whole thing to where it looks like.
But doesn't it say unsent?
It does.
What?
Yeah.
Yes, it shows up as unsent.
Or no, it says delete a message or something like it.
I'm pretty sure it tells them like they.
Let's try.
Let me see.
Yeah.
I don't understand.
You're going to delete the original.
We know you don't, Eddie.
You're too worried about a $100 joke.
I'm but heard about it.
Okay.
Mike.
I could be wrong, but I think it's.
I'm going to unsend what I sent you on Instagram.
Okay.
It's gone.
Okay.
I unsend it.
Got it.
And it says nothing.
It's just gone.
It's just gone?
It's just gone.
Oh, wow, that's cool.
Okay, so I'm going to copy paste.
That helps in the dating world, doesn't it?
Yeah, two in the morning I send it at 7 a.m.
Unsend.
Okay, so.
Did you copy it before you unsent it?
No, I didn't do anything.
I went to check mics.
Okay, so I'm going to go Baker, Mayfield.
Boom.
Copy.
I still think the joke's good.
I'll use it on someone else.
Unsend.
It's gone.
There you go.
Hopefully we're there for it.
Now I'm going to rescind it.
Yes.
Boom, sent again.
Okay.
So he'll get the red dot and think, am I crazy?
Dude, what if he sees it again and just has seen nothing else?
What if he sees it again and goes, yeah, let's go?
Because if he sees it again and does nothing, it's the same as it was before we started.
Yeah.
And I didn't have to make a hundred dollar joke.
This is terrible.
Either that or he blocks you.
All right.
That's okay.
What I really hope...
I really hope...
After all that, he unfollow you.
If he saw it, though, that means he follows you.
Because he's got to have somebody like requests by people he doesn't follow.
But if you unfollow somebody and you're still going to their box
because you've had other messages before...
It prioritizes it.
This is a world you guys are really familiar with.
He's DMing on Instagram.
Yeah, dude.
When you have Baker Mayfield as your friend, you would really worry about that.
I just hope so we can sit down with him and Eddie can ask him.
Oh, dude.
Could I have followed him?
I will, too.
I will. Okay, here's who he follows. Ready? Me? Caitlin? DJ. Grace. So tell me he's not like...
He's family, basically. He's in the family. He's basically a cousin. The shirt company that he made the shirt from?
I'm kidding. He's not there. Are you going to read all his followers?
No, I read the ones. There's the people that we both follow. But he follows all four of us.
In the dorm? Yeah. Dorm dudes? No. Okay. 25 whistles presented by Draft King Sportsbook.

We didn't hit our NBA parlay last time.
That's okay.
At least I got one, right?
You guys sucked last time.
Went 0 for 3.
Whatever.
I went one for three.
I tried.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Look, here's the thing.
SEC tournament, I'm just going to give you a little tip.
It's not even so much a parlay.
Kentucky, they are right at the right time.
And that's what you want to be.
You want to be right at the right time.
Kentucky is right at the right time.
And so I think Kentucky, first of all, I think Arkansas wins the whole thing.
I'm the only one that thinks that, though.
So if you are someone of sane judgment,
I would roll with Kentucky for a while,
even to win the whole thing.
I think they beat Alabama coming up.
So that's what I say to do here.
And as we get closer to the tournament,
we'll give you another parlay next week.

Readers, Katie's finalists,
we have an incredible new episode
this week for you guys.
We have our girl Hillary Duff in here
and we can't wait for you to hear this episode.
They put on Lizzie McGuire 2am video on demand.
This guy's bobo-u-b-a-m.
2 a.m. Whatever time it is,
Lizzie McGuire.
And I'm like,
wild bat you were with.
It was like a first closet moment from me
where I was like,
I don't feel like she's hot, like the rest of them.
No, no, no.
I was like, she's beautiful.
But I'm appreciating her in a different way than these boys are.
I'm not like, but listen to Los Angeles on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or whatever you get your podcast.
I went and sat on the little ottoman in front of him.
Hi, Dad.
And just when I said that, my mom comes out of the kitchen.
She says, I have some cookies and milk.
This is his badass convict.
Right.
Just finished five years.
I'm going to have cookies and milk at mom.
Yeah.

It's time for the Tiddle Tiddle.
After undergoing surgery on his knee, do you think the Timberwolves missing cat eliminates them from getting the number one seat in the West?
There are stars, and it's the Uing effect, which is what?
Bill Simmons talks about a lot where you lose your biggest player and everybody plays a lot better
for a while.
I don't think they're going to get the number one seat anyway.
But I do think they've been playing well without Cat.
Is that about Carl Anthony Towns?
Yeah.
Got it.
You call them Cat?
Is that what people call them?
Do you watch basketball?
Yeah, but...
Do you like to say Carl Anthony Town every time?
It's too long.
Yeah, that's just a...
K-8...
I'm tired just saying Carl Anthony Town.
The whole, the scary thing is they're not saying when he's coming back,
they're just saying when he's being re-evaluated.
Which means he's going to be re-evaluated in four weeks.
Not we expect him to be back, which means they don't even know.
That's the final week of the regular season.
So I'm saying he shouldn't come back at all regular season.
But it's okay the postseason lasts for like four months.
I know.
It should be all right.
True.
It's so long.
And if they go in as the two, obviously they're playing somebody from,
they had to come up through the playing tournament.
They're one game back of the one seed right now.
I don't think they're going to win the one seat anyway,
but they need them eventually.
But I think this is the Patrick Ewing theory
where Ewing goes down the next plate out of their mind for a long time.
I don't think they can sustain it, but I do.
I don't worry about him.
Anthony, freaking Edwards is awesome.
He's so good.
And he's able to shine even more
because they don't have to get the ball.
Big Cat, Cat just stands around anyway,
shoots threes, occasionally goes,
He's, you know, he breaks like glass.
Yeah, I hear you.
And they still have Gobert as far as a big guy goes.
Yeah, but Gober doesn't score.
I saw Shaq bust and on Gobert.
He's like, I can do what Gobert does and make $25 million.
Right now.
Did you see Gobert do the fine $100,000?
We're doing this to the ref, gambling thing.
He thought he had money on the game, the ref did.
I still think that the wolves go in.
It's probably like a three, and that's great.
That's going to be a battle over there.
That West is loaded.
It's loaded.
All right, what else you got?
All right, missing some key plays.
is an already out of the Big 12 tournament,
how confident would you be
if you were Kansas heading into next week's
March Madness tournament?
There is a theory in college basketball
that you don't really,
if you have a great seed,
you don't really want to make it
to the championship anyway,
because you just go tired.
So it's better just to lose.
If you're going to be a one or two seed regardless,
three seed even,
if you can't really play into those top spots,
the theory is it's better if you don't win
because you get more rest time.
And you're really not gaining anything.
I want to win.
everything all the time, but also that's why I'm not a college athlete.
That's why? I'm more professional.
That's the one thing right there.
But again, like Hunter Dickinson didn't play
that other kid, the
McClure. Yeah, he didn't play.
So I'm not concerned.
And they should rest up.
I like the rest. They're going to make a run.
They're rested. The tournament doesn't affect them at all.
I got a hot take on that.
They did lose. There's no Patrick Ewing effect on this.
Well, they lost two players because Cincinnati beat him by 20.
Yeah, they got smoked.
It was bad.
Yeah, I think Kansas goes out first round.
That is hot, hot, hot take.
First round.
Don't even know who they're going to play it.
Don't worry about it.
It doesn't matter who they're playing, man.
Why would they go out first round?
Because they're just not good.
They can't get it together.
But that's okay.
They're still Kansas premier athletes who are playing probably a major.
They go in as a what, a number four, four maybe?
I think they're still top ten in the nation, so.
Yeah, I mean, I would think three or four.
Yeah, that's coach.
So they go in as a four, they're going to play a decent team.
I think they're out the first round.
Boom.
Save this clip.
They play a 13, right?
Now if, yeah, but if Hunter Dickinson, amical or aren't healthy, that's got to affect their seating, right?
If you're Florida State football, it does.
Oh, man.
But also.
Does that work the same way?
Committee?
Yes, yes.
Yeah.
And here's what I would say to that, though.
Yes and no, I would say yes, if they're out for a long time, if they expect them to be out two, two, three weeks, a whole round in the tournament.
But I would say no if it's like they may come back game one, game two, because if that's the case, they will.
won't let it affect it because they'll just let them play the, they'll give them their high
seat, let them play their little mid-major when it move on.
So they have to push the narrative at PR.
They're not even that hurt.
Yeah, they're fine.
We expect them to be back.
Exactly.
Game one.
You can get in trouble for that, though, right?
They're not lying about anything.
Okay.
It's college.
It's how you word it.
You don't have to say anything in college.
Yeah.
You also be like they're doing cat.
We'll reevaluating one day.
And every day you reevaluate one more day.
Yeah, one more day.
All right, next up.
All right, going to football here.
Still sitting in Chicago as of right now.
where do you think the best landing spot for Justin Fields is?
I guess when you look at the teams that are interested,
that's all we can kind of go on right now
unless the bears re-sign them to hold them to trade them early.
That's also a thing if somebody gets hurt next year.
It doesn't feel like that would be good for the locker room, though,
because those guys like Justin Fields.
I mean, a lot of them were very pro-Justin Fields.
It's not that they were anti-Kaleb Williams.
They don't know Caleb Williams.
And Justin Fields was their leader.
And the Broncos are an option,
because what are they going to do over there?
Like right now, what are they doing?
You don't wait for a draft pick?
What are they, 13th, 14th, 15th, somewhere?
I mean, and they can get one of those top five,
I would say there are five quarterbacks now
that are going the first round
because you got Caleb Williams at one,
Drake May at, we'll just say two.
You got...
Jaden Daniels.
Jaden Daniels at three or four.
You have the...
Don't, let me get there.
Michigan?
No, no, no.
Oh, yeah.
That's going to be number five.
Who's my other quarter?
Oh, yeah, Bo Nix.
Oh, yeah.
No, and then Pennix, Junior's at four.
So it's like six.
We got options.
Because they always reach on quarterbacks.
It's like, oh, we expect to have in a second round.
Somebody grabs them late in the first.
And then from Michigan.
McCarthy?
McCartney?
Not McCartney.
Paul McCartney?
That's a beetle.
Jay-J McCarthy.
Yeah.
So the Broncos, I'm assuming they're just going to try to draft somebody.
The Raiders, which they did make a sign.
They did sign our boy Menshu,
but were they signing Monsu?
Is it a two-year deal?
Yeah.
Are they signing him as a bridge quarterback?
They also draft a quarterback.
The Vikings, what the F are they going to do?
Sam.
Pittman?
Ellinger?
Fonder.
Darnold.
But again, I feel like Darnold was the same thing.
Malone?
Sam Malone is that a cheers
The bartender
What about the Jets
What about him?
What thing you can do over there?
Aaron Rogers
No, he's a vice president
He's not going to play next year
That is wild
I am so annoyed by Aaron Rogers
But I respect it so much
Because he is such an attention horror
I feel like he gets bored
Like as a person
I would never be Aaron Rogers' friend
He is against everything that I like and a friend
he's an attention.
But as somebody that I'm just watching from afar in media,
you love it.
It's amazing.
Like the guy thinks he's by far the smartest guy in the room, right?
And finds ways for the camera to focus on him.
If it's when he's injured in a leg cast, throwing balls on the sideline.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Throwing the ball.
You know, will he come back?
He does that whole, I don't know.
The week in a dark room.
All of it.
Because he could have done that privately.
Yeah, and nobody would have ever known.
Couldn't have seen him.
It's a dark room.
That's so cool.
But as somebody who admires people who just seek attention and get it,
like he's a plus, man.
He run for vice president.
There's nobody better.
I'd stretch that out.
If I were him, I'd play that.
Oh, man.
Because you can even, like, submit your whatever request or...
He gets Secret Service with him.
That would be amazing.
Just dropped off in a black car every game.
I would think, man, all three of those teams, though, even the Vikings.
I know he said Sam Darnold.
I feel like he's a bridge quarterback too, right?
Oh, for sure, yeah.
So you got those guys just in case.
They're also good backups.
I mean, Michigan played great with the Colts.
As good as he can't play with the, I mean, for solid.
But if I were going to pick, probably the Broncos.
But I have no reason to think.
I just think that the Raiders and the Vikings are going to go draft somebody
and the Broncos might.
I like Justin Fields.
And I think he's gotten better every year.
Also, it's not like he was playing behind a good offensive line.
It's not like he was playing for an offensive coach.
So, and I also have a couple signed things about him.
Let's go.
Right.
We need to get the value up.
All right, one more.
Last one here.
After surprising everyone in signing with the Titans on Wednesday,
do you think the Titans overpaid for Calvin Ridley?
Four years, $92 million, but it's $50 million guaranteed.
So four years, $92 million.
So basically $25 million a year almost.
And he's not young.
If he's able to play through, he's 29.
But as a receiver, that's not so old.
It's not running back old.
If you're a 29-year-old running, like how old Saquo on 27?
Yeah, I think he just turned 27.
So I would say, if I'm comparing age as a 26-year-old running back
as a 29-year-old wide receiver.
I think at 29 you got one more good run and a three-four-year-old deal.
If you stay healthy.
Because isn't like A.J. Brown like 31 or 33?
And he's still extremely effective.
Is he that old already?
And then Ridley, hey, you got a year off, remember?
Yeah, he did.
Yeah, he got a little wagers here and there.
What do you call that when, like a professor leaves for a year?
Sabatical?
Yeah, he took a spadical, you know?
AJ's younger than him.
How old's AJ Brown?
26.
Interesting.
And Calvin is how old?
29.
I thought AJ Brown was a bit older.
That's interesting.
I still feel like it's fine.
And also, it's not all guaranteed.
So it's four years, but it's 50 million guaranteed.
And it's less, you get a good two years out of them, a really good two years.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think they need weapons.
Yeah.
And now they have Hopkins.
They have Traylon Burks.
They have Redley.
The running back situation is interesting in the ties.
They have Pollard and Spears.
And that'll just be, I think that'll be
1A and 1B more than 1 and 2.
So, I like it.
It's just who's going to get him the ball.
It's not like Levis is proven.
The one thing Levis proved is that
he didn't suck as everybody else.
And he's tough.
Yeah, he didn't have all season under his belt.
They still have Malik Willis?
Unless they just recently caught him.
So that's it.
I feel good about that.
Go Calvin Ridley.
Were you going to say tighten up?
I don't say that.
Okay.
I did it in a promo once for them.
They were like,
it's going to be on the scoreboard.
And they were like, say your name,
and say everybody get fired up.
I did like 10 videos.
And they play them on the scoreboard at a half time.
And they're like, high energy.
And I don't really like to say lame stuff.
Even doing like commercials.
They write something lame.
I'm like, oh, I want to.
I'm not saying it.
You always say like, I'd never say that.
I was like, yeah, not doing it.
And so they put a microphone and they're like,
high energy because remember everybody's cheering around you and if you're just like go tightens it's
just going to sound like you go and i go what's up bobby boats let's get high tighten up
they're like they're like okay what can you do tighten up higher like more pumped and i don't want to say
that because they already gave me a jersey my name on it signed when i got there they also gave me a derrick
henry jersey yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah we still have it i think it's in the backyard the
the day, but I got it. I rescued it. I rescued it. Don't worry. But it was also like
one of those autographed white ones, so you don't rescue that from a yard.
What do you mean? I did. It was in the backyard and it's like a rain. It's got green all over it,
but I guess you could say it's a game played. Yeah, game ball. So that was like, what's up
guys? It is Bobby Bones. Tightened up. So I just tried to fit it with less energy.
You're ridiculous. Tarting up. And then they were like, it's a little better. Hey, let me
get a visual. So you're like, they're shooting you. And they got camera, they got lights. They got lights.
and everything on you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
A boom,
boom,
Mike?
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
And mic on my collar.
Okay, okay.
And so I did the first
with no energy.
The second,
where I take my own energy
down and just try to match,
tighten up.
And then I do the third one.
And I can tell they're getting tired of me.
Not tired of me,
but they know I'm just,
they don't think,
I didn't say it was lame.
I didn't say I think this is lame.
So.
Is there a director?
Yeah,
they're like three.
I don't even know who the director is.
There's just a whole group of people,
like a promo staff.
And I'm like,
what's up guys you know what's up it's Bobby Bones
say it with me it's on the board
that's what they went with and they put it up tighten up
okay that's smart because you weren't
to say it at some point they realized
I didn't smart and they didn't tell me I could do that
I just did it oh yeah yeah and they were like oh that's interesting
no one else has done that and I was like yeah I'm creative
I didn't say yeah I'm creative but that's what I was thinking I was like yeah
sometimes stuff just comes and sometimes it's stupid
I like that I'm like us too
I'm not. Readers, Katie's finalists, publicists.
We have an incredible new episode this week for you guys.
We have our girl Hillary Duff in here, and we can't wait for you to hear this episode.

until I really start making money.
It's Financial Literacy Month,
and the podcast, Eating While Broke,
is bringing real conversations about money, growth, and building your future.
This month, hear from top streamer,
Zoe Spencer, and venture capitalist Lakeisha Landrum-Pierre,
as they share their journeys from starting out to leveling up.
If I'm outside with my parents and they're seeing all these people come up to me for pictures,
it's like, what?
Today now, obviously, it's like 100%.
They believe everything.
But at first, it was just like, you got to go get a real job.
There's an economic component to community striving.
If there's not enough money and entrepreneurship happening in communities, they fail.
And what I mean by fail is they don't have money to pay for food.
They cannot feed their kids.
They do not have homes.
Communities don't work unless there's money.
flowing through them.

It wasn't on the prompter and they told me I was never invited back.
Oh, oh, okay.
Don't do that anymore then.
Yeah.
So they had written all this stuff out and you just went on your own?
It's like a, there's like if you're doing a, I'll tell you what it was.
It was the first CMT awards I ever did.
Oh.
And I went up to, and I was just like,
they're probably never going to ask me to do this again anyway.
I just moved to town.
I was like, why are they even asking me to do it?
I wanted to do it, but I was like, damn,
no one ever asked me to do this.
I really had no TV career at that point.
And so I was like, this is my time to impress, time to shine.
And so I'd written like three little jokes.
And I walk up and I think just says,
hey, for video of the year for, I don't know what it was.
Generic.
Best video with a guitar.
The nominees are.
And I went out, I was like,
what's up guys, Bally Bones?
Man, look out in the crowd.
Then I did like a couple little jokes.
Oh, no.
Did you call somebody out?
In a funny way.
Okay.
And then I was like, all right, let's get to the award.
Best, da-da-da-da.
Whatever, boom, comes back.
And I had another little joke thing.
And I was like, all right, I don't remember them.
They probably weren't that good.
And I said, and the winner is.
And I don't know who the winner was.
And so afterward, the producer,
after the whole show was over,
I was leaving the producer.
like, hey man, do you have a second?
I was like, yeah.
He said, you can't change stuff up.
We're timed.
I was like, oh, my bad.
I wasn't told I couldn't change anything up.
And he was like, if it's on the script, there's a reason.
And I said, it's okay.
I'll be hosting this thing anyway in a couple years.
I was just kind of kidding.
You said that.
Yeah, I was kidding.
But he didn't take it as a joke.
You love awkward.
That is so awkward.
No, but I was kidding.
And then I said, a couple of hundred bucks.
He didn't laugh at that out.
That's a good joke.
There's a good.
But I was, I was.
I was kind of blocked from that show for like five or six years.
Wait, wait, wait, hold on.
What did he say after that?
It's not what he said.
He just stopped talking.
It was just like, he was done.
He was done.
That's all, he heard enough.
Yeah.
And I didn't mean it like, I'm going to be hosting this show anyway.
I meant it like, I'm being host a couple years anyway.
I was getting reps.
It just, I don't know.
I just said it.
Yeah, yeah.
And I wasn't invited back for a long time.
And then I got invited back.
And I went.
It wasn't that I read the script, but I wore a shirt with a message written on it.
Oh, boy.
Political message?
No.
I'm just joking.
You wouldn't do that.
I wouldn't do that.
And they just thought it was annoying that I was trying to make the show about something not me, even though I felt like the message was positive.
And so I didn't get in trouble, but I didn't get invited back the next year.
And then when I did get invited back, they were like, stand on the street and do it.
And I was like, I'm not doing that.
At this point, I'm interviewing people?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, like, stand on the street and be like, we're here at a boy.
You know how they do that.
They have a stage somewhere else.
Yeah, and I just felt like they were just doing that to kind of be like,
you've been troublesome.
Yeah.
And so we're going to narrow.
You're an outlaw.
You're in time out.
What that's the lamest outlaw ever, man.
What are you in for?
You know, I'm behold, someone's pocket if I'm telling them I'm into that.
I changed the script.
So, and then the only other, yeah, I haven't done that show.
They did approach me once, different producer to host the,
CMT
Crossroads?
No, CMT
like year
biggest artist of the year
and I ended up not
being able to do that
because of contractual stuff
but I told them going to say
I would love to do it
but I want to be able to write my own stuff
and I'll bring people to write with me
like Mike or whomever
but I want to be able to have my own material
and
they agreed to it
different producer
but then contractually I wasn't able to
at another TV thing
that wouldn't let me do it
Oh dang.
I know.
I'd have for sure been canceled because I was the only other issue that I had was the very first time they did the New Year's from Nashville.
Oh yeah.
I was one of the two hosts of that show.
And so I'm hosting that show.
And the girl was from entertainment tonight.
She's good.
Very straightforward though.
And that was a live show.
And there were all these instances of you got to just ad lib.
Yeah, stretch time.
You got it.
Yeah.
That I'm naturally good at.
not sticking to a prompter obviously.
Sometimes I have trouble seeing,
so I'm just not that good.
Like I watched Ryan do it, he's amazing at it.
Me on a prompter, I'm a B plus, maybe B.
And so it rained, and I had to cover so much ground.
They're like, hey, throw to Bobby, he'll just handle it.
And they're like, oh, hey, start talking, crush it.
And then they come back and they're like, hey, we want you to host the next year.
And I said, if I do it, I just want to be the only host.
Because I had to carry what it felt like to me,
because all the issues, I had to carry most of the,
I said, I don't want to be the only host.
And then we can't let you do that.
I said, okay, that's fine, because she's good.
I said, but, because they don't really pay me much.
It was like, first year, next year we'll get you.
And I said, okay, at least give me double the money.
That's how they do.
Next year they get you?
It's the first time they ever done the show.
Hey, we're good, man, we'll pay you next year.
All transparency, I think, I say much.
Go from memory, I think they gave me 40 grand to host a show that night.
That was the first year.
Yeah.
Usually my rate is to do something like that for a show at night, it's much more than that.
I'd be like, I made it, baby.
But I used to be that.
Like earlier, but if I take lower, then that's what they can be like, well, you took lower here.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The network knows.
And so I was like, hey, I at least kind of need double.
And they were like, we can't give you double.
Are you saying you don't want to do it?
And I had to really think about it because I know, I don't want to bluff.
And I said, I don't want to do it.
I was bluffing.
And they were like, okay.
That's a hard bluff, man.
They were like, okay.
And I said, peace out.
And then I can't wait for them to call back.
They never call back.
They never called.
But it's okay.
I wasn't going to do it.
I thought they would just call back and say, we'll meet your demand.
I wasn't going to do it for what they asked.
And also working on New Year's Eve, like that sucked.
So, but that's that story.
I think you've ever shared that before.
Okay, last thing I'm going to share here before we go,
I made a bet.
And depending on when you hear this or see this, it may already be over.
Or not.
Or not.
No one's ever won five games.
in five days to win the SEC tournament.
Oh, they've won four, three?
Arkansas won four before.
Four years ago.
92, I think, 91 or 92.
So I bet, before the game,
I bet $75 for Arkansas to win the SEC tournament.
So with five to go, bet $75.
If they were to win four more games,
I will win $22,575.
That's amazing.
And Eddie almost blew it.
for you. No, I didn't. He did. He almost cost me
22,000. I did not. He ended up winning.
All right, so that's my draft king's bet.
Go hogs. Go hogs.
They didn't give me a cash out often
yet, though.
Dang it. I don't think they will.
Not after one. Maybe after
if they win another one, yeah, maybe.
I don't think so because then they have to play
Auburn. Well, today
they play South Carolina.
Then they play if people will just win who I
expect to win. Then they play
Auburn. And then
if they win that, they have to play
Tennessee
and then if they win that
they'll play Kentucky
it's a long road
it's a long road
long road ahead
yep yep yep
all right that's it
hey but money don't come easy man
no
it takes hard work
get a hard money
that's right
let's see if Baker responded
that's right
oh yeah
oh bones come on man
let's say Becker responded
I got a red dot
oh
oh that was me dude
I just said sorry about the
no I just not from him
it's just a cent
he hasn't seen it yet
okay
We're still in good shape.
Unless he's like, I'm not even opening that bull crap.
No, he wouldn't do that.
I also thought he wouldn't ignore me.
All right, there you go.
Thank you guys.
Sometimes, though, you can just read the, I guess, the first thing, you know, whatever the tab that's on there, and you can see enough.
Not open the whole thing.
It's like, I'm not, four words.
I'm not interested.

No, no, no.
I was like, she's beautiful.
But I'm appreciating her in a different way than these boys are.
I'm not like, ugh.
