Episode Date: May 6, 2024

David Dennis of Andscape joins us to properly educate us on the Drake and Kendrick Lamar rap beef. He walks us through the crazy weekend in which Kendrick dropped numerous diss tracks, and takes us through the roots of what led to this most recent battle. Then, we discuss Jhoan Duran's epic entrance from the bullpen and the origins of the reliever entrance. Finally, Drew Bledsoe joins the show sounding like an after-party after partaking in the Tom Brady Roast on Netflix last night. He gives us the inside scoop on how the night went, who had the best jokes, and whether the Tom Brady moment with Jeff Ross was a bit or not. Learn more about your ad choices.

You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. This is the Dan LeBattor Show with the StuGuts Podcast. Amin has some thoughts on the Kendrick Drake beef from the weekend. Kendrick Lamar has the top two spots on the Apple music charts. Kind of a surprise, I thought, to see him sort of swamp in views and listening. Everything that Drake was doing this weekend, given Drake's general popularity. But David Dennis Jr., he's a senior writer for ESPN's Anscape. He's the author of the award-winning book called The Movement made us a father a son and the legacy of a freedom ride

And he's been writing about this beef all month. Thank you David for joining us Take us through both the timeline because Kendrick is crazy and he's prolific and it's just an avalanche Of I'm not going to lose this uh... why would anybody ever try this against me i'm just gonna bury you in music and so your thoughts here are what on how this is going over over the weekend because a lot of people are talking about it and not until the roast did it get swept from a means timeline because of how interested people are in all of this and buhmanian others have pointed out that jay cole was wise to lose the way he lost just getting out instead of doing it the

way that Drake is doing. He didn't lose he just tapped out. Well that's losing. No, not necessarily. He said the beef was bigger than me. It's not trying. It is not trying and then therefore losing. So was Michael Jordan losing when he retired? Did he lose? He didn't win. He lost according to you, retiring. It's like losing in overtime in hockey. 202. 202, thank you. David, your thoughts as the expert on this thing? Yeah, the timeline goes back about a decade actually, which is like, uh, Kendrick Lamar has been wanting this feud for a very, very long time. Drake has been kind of like not, you know, they've been sort of trading

sort of subliminal barbs and then it just hit the moment of no return. A few weeks ago, Kendrick said, let's do this. Drake was ready and did not like, we did not know exactly where things would go until Kendrick actually put out a full fledged discged diss which he did with the Songy Forial. So Drake was kind of like, hey, you're short, you wear kids shoes, you know, I make more money than you. And Kendrick Lamar came back and was like, I hate everything about you. I hate your clothes. I hate the way you talk. I hate your music. You have inappropriate relationships with children. Your family is like, you know, not okay, you're not black. All these things that was like, okay,

we have accelerated this to a level that we did not think it would go. Friday, we hit our climax where Kendrick Lamar, or Drake released his song, Family Matters, with the video and everybody's like, Drake has come back. And Kendrick Lamar in a truly psychopathic move released his song 10 minutes later and claimed that Drake had an 11-year-old child and spoke to his mother and all this insanity

and has just been piling on Drake in a way that nobody thought would happen. Like he's outmaneuvered Drake, out-rapped Drake, made more popular music. He has, you know, these songs are number one on the charts and he's seemingly beaten Drake into submission in a way that I did not think we received. And featured an album cover of things evidently stolen from Drake's father or from Drake himself to indicate that perhaps he has someone in Drake's camp because he's got Ozempic as a prescription. What did you make of all of that as an album cover? Yeah, so Kendrick on Friday morning was you know, it was clear that he that Drake's music and the things that Drake's gonna Do were leaking out people knew sort of what was coming

And people had been hearing that Drake was going to have this song out and Kendrick Lamar wanted everybody to know that he knows Where it comes from so he released his album cover with Drake's personal belongings including Ozempic which has been the real winner of this feud because Ozempic has been name checked in multiple songs and now we have a rap beef that is about who's using bbls and who's cheating on whom and who's doing these things that feels sort of less? You know less enjoyable than just I'm a better rapper than you are David I'm an old man. So I Come from an era where like the diss track would come out and then we would dwell on it

And yeah, like maybe a few weeks later or even longer that another the response to come out like oh we dwell on that And it was kind of a measured, you had space to really absorb what was going on. And Friday I tapped out, I was like, I just don't care anymore. It felt like people tweeting at each other as opposed to songs that were written and recorded in a studio with the purpose of holding my attention.

Am I just old or is this a feeling that's shared with other people? No, no, this is a legit thing. I mean, first of all, Drake started this like bombardment, you know, strategy when he did this with Meek Mill in 2015. He dropped a song, then he dropped another one called Back to Back Right After and that sort of snuffed Meek Mill out. But Friday admittedly got like pretty uncomfortable. Like Drake was, you know, saying these things about Kendrick and Kendrick was saying these things about Drake and the family and it just kind of felt nasty. And everybody was a lot of people over.

My article is about the fact like I hope this ends really soon. However, Kendrick Lamar kind of brought us back. It was another strategic move with this party song called Not Like Us that he dropped on Saturday night in time for people to like play it in LA in the clubs and play it on in Cinco de Mayo, the biggest day party day of the year. And people are dancing through the song about Drake and the issues that he has with Drake. And he kind of made it feel joyous again when it was it really was teetering on this really, really dark place. And this is a dark place that Drake actually tried to bring us back to last night in a

really inconceived concession speech, it seems like. Does Drake indeed have fake abs? I don't know. I've never seen them. I've never caressed them myself, but that has been the actual, that's been the thing that's been going on for a long time. The rumors that Drake has these fake abs. myself, but that has been the actual, that's been the thing that's been going on for a long time. The rumors that Drake has these fake abs.

Pusha T, when he said surgical summer was alluding to the fact that Drake has these abs, there was a time where Drake was very, very proud on social media, you know, posting his abs, which, you know, full disclosure, you know, it doesn't seem like a bad investment. I wonder how much they are. As somebody who has a, as a doughy figure, I wouldn't mind like a bad investment. I wonder how much they are. As somebody who has a doughy figure, I wouldn't mind seeing them. I'm with you. Yeah.

The other part about this is, I think most of these songs, beyond like they just happened too rapidly, are eminently forgettable. How long of a, like, to give you an example, to me the most memorable song in all of this is BBL Drizzy, which isn't even one of the two guys it's an AI song like I can't stop singing that song all these other songs are kind of like okay I see you're the point you're making at

the other guy but it's not does it have staying power to you? I think I think Family Matters Drake's song that he dropped on Friday would have had staying power if Kendrick Lamar had not like nuked it by dropping his song right after. I do think we have some keepers. I do think Not Like Us is actually the like can be the song of the summer. Like it is it's about Drake but is actually a larger story about culture vultures and people sort of impeding into a hip hop culture who should not be there. I think this song could be, uh, like an actual, actual hit beyond the few. If I was scoring it UFC starts, I'd probably say 10, nine Kendrick right now.

But I said it the other day. It feels like this is Mayweather versus Pacquiao, 10 years too late where it's like these two guys back then could have made something so much better musically where now it's just, we're we're kind of trading shots and then everybody's winning because the rising tide lifts all boats when it comes to streaming. I think the thing about the Pacquiao Mayweather thing is what actually an illusion I made to MIPs like this feels like that but they feel more closely to their prime than Pacquiao Mayweather did. The problem I think here is that we've already seen Drake get knocked out.

We saw Pusha T hit him with the definitive knockout blow. So it's not sort of much chipping away as we did then. But what I'm surprised by is I think this can actually have true damage to Drake's career. Like at the beginning of this, I thought Drake was Teflon. Yes, he may lose, but he is going to still make hits. But there's so much that Kendrick Lamar has unpacked here that it feels like this could actually do something

to his career long term. Is it more Kendrick's return on that, or is it that nobody in the music industry wants to work with him, right? His songs with Rick Ross were always bangers. His stuff with Future, his stuff with Metro, all the things that he's usually going to when he wants to make these jams, all those guys are now out. Yeah they are, but Drake can make hits on his, I mean Drake is just wakes up and

makes a hit, you know like especially in the streaming era, especially the way people make do this, like Drake just just finds another area to like popularize. He goes to the UK and takes some of their sound and Kendrick Lamar talked about he goes to Atlanta. He just keeps doing that and he can always just make a hit. The problem is now Kendrick Lamar has put so much shade on what those hits look like, where they come from, who's actually writing these hits, who are you stealing from, who are you vulturing from, that kind of makes you question when the next Drake hit comes. And also, the guy has serious issues with women, you know, and that was his fan base.

And now that has all come into light in a way that's gonna be harmful. His latest column is headlined, The Kendrick Lamar and Drake feud is over, at least it should be. It's at ESPN's Anscape, and you write in it, quote, this is how rap feuds go with women as props for male rappers to insult one another. And it's a trope that's as tiresome as it is unnecessary,

childish and harmful for no reason. Rappers sling mud, reveal dark secrets and go for the proverbial death blow with women being both the nuclear bomb and the collateral damage. There are accusations of domestic violence in here. You mentioned pedophilia is being alleged here. What are we doing? Yeah, like this is the thing that has always been in hip hop

and with these few, just like I'm gonna get the dirt on you. Tupac in the 90s said, hey, I slept with Biggie's wife. Jay-Z said, hey, I slept with Nas's baby mama.'s wife. Jay Z said, Hey, I slept with Nas's baby mama. Pusha T says Drake, you're hiding a child. You know, the mother of your child is, you know, slept with a bunch of people. And so that is now for some reason, or it's been a prerequisite for a lot of people to have these feuds.

You have to throw these women in there who have nothing to do with this. Right. And we end up judging these women. So Drake says, Hey, Kendrick Lamar, you beat your wife. Kendrick Lamar, this other guy who's a business partner, Dave Free is the father of your children. Kendrick Lamar says, Hey, Drake, you have pedophilic tendencies. You have people in your crew who, you know, have things with them with underage girls. You yourself send underage girls messages. You have a 11 year old girl who you have not claimed

and it's just like, we don't have to do this. We can just do a thing where we say, I'm better than you, I can rap better than you. And instead these guys feign actual, you know, concern for these women that they don't seem to have. Like Drake, if you have concerns about Kendrick Lamar beating on women, don't name drop Chris Brown at the beginning of your song. Kendrick Lamar, if you're worried about how women are treated, don't have Kodak Black on your albums.

Don't pretend like you care when it's time to have a feud. I'm surprised by this. We have 30 seconds left, but Stugatz has a question he wants to ask. David, do you find it ridiculous that we're comparing Anthony Edwards to Michael Jordan? I do not. I do not. But by the way that they look, by the way that they look, that we're comparing Anthony Edwards to Michael Jordan. I do not, I do not, but by the way that they look, by the way that they look, I don't think Anthony Edward, I'm expecting three songs from you by the end of the day. See you over there. David, thank you for being on with us, we appreciate it.

And then you stand up and you give a good point to the right.

Stugatz. That's the same for strike two. But strike three, you get down low, you got your hands behind the catcher, alright. The right arm goes up into the air. Hy air, and then you finish it with a punch. The right arm flings way up into the air. I wish I could see that. It's terrible. The audio is great.

This is the Dunlapatar Show with the Stugats. We've talked Stugats about these bullpen entrances since really the movie Major League with Charlie Sheen and Wild Thing coming out of the bullpen throwing a hundred miles an hour. A long time ago, Mariano Rivera used to come out of the bullpen to enter Sandman by Metallica. Did Major League start that? Or was it already a thing and then Major League did it? The first time I remember a closer making his way to the mound in a way that was cool, it was Lee Smith of the Cubs he would sleep throughout the game nice and then just mosey to the mound in a way that was

menacing because he threw hard but at the time he threw about 92 miles an hour right now these guys are doing an entirely different thing and it does matter in terms of how it is that you're coming into the game in the ninth inning what you do to the crowd how hard you throw because until recently the best one i've seen of any kind is edwin deez of the match when he came out to timmy trump it uh... it was uh... really latin it was cool to see in a match uniform now at the beginning of the end of the for the massive of not mistaken now you're correct that is correct with the return of the word and i told him to stop doing it he kept

doing it he won't stop i told him to stop he didn't stop and then the Mets collapsed Edwin Diaz also got hurt But let's meet up Trump. It's also from Austria It okay, but it is Latin music. It is not Latin music. It doesn't it's a horn. Yeah, but it doesn't feel he was from Australia Yeah, Australia Australia. Yeah, okay put up Austria Yeah, Australia, Australia. Yeah, okay put up Austria It's not the dr. That's a beautiful exit you have understood Timmy trumpet is not Spanish Timmy trumpet as a name is very very American Thank you, bro. The me trumpeter brother. How are you saying brother bro?

thank you brother t.v. trumpeter brother how are you saying brother brother brother excuse me that's how chris kody says it there's an l in there let's hear uh this because i think we've got a competitor i don't know if we can beat edwin dies but let's see edwin dies first and you tell me what you think about this closer entrance and the one i'm about to show you There he is, the prideets are on top of the world when this is happening. No one's watched those videos on your phone. I love that. Hello, recording. The terrible energy. The lyrics! He looks Austrian. Tony Trumpet's like, Oh, you thought the prices were too high at the Formula One, did you?

You Americans. He blew a save yesterday against Tampa. What are these accents you're doing today? Credit to you, it's not Obama, which is what most of your accents are, but today it's been weird. What is what most of your accents are, but today has been weird. What are you talking about, William? My cousin Michael not doing so well. We don't support a mean around here. No, not at all.

Wow, Conan, everyone will be laughing. Oh, chuckling it up. The twins have Joanne Duran, and he throws dugouts. It's not just that he throws a hundred and four hundred five miles an hour he has a hundred and one mile an hour splitter and when he comes into games in minnesota the minnesota have a twelve game winning streak here recently when he did is yeah they lost yesterday when

he comes into games those games are over and look at what happens here when they turn off the lights and all of those cameras that were filming edwin deez that billy says correctly known of those people will ever look at that video again all of these people are participating in the him in in the all of we're winning this game and now the dude who throws a hundred and five is coming in. The Oh We're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot,

we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, we're making it hot, Minneapolis, a hotbed for Hispanics. Hit the sounder please. Someone, for crying out loud, hit the goddamn sounder. What are we doing here? What sounder do you want? Look at me moving. Sounder. Ha ha ha ha.

What's the sounder that you want? Really? It wasn't a... Chris Whittingham is a fancy lad. I missed that one. What's the one that you want? Billy? Was it a? It was a... Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Please correct me here, Billy, because you've said Austria and Australia, but I am learning for the first time that that's not a Hispanic song that Timmy Trumpet does. I thought that that was a song that was grabbing all of Hispanic flavor. I did not think not only that that person wasn't American or wasn't you know Austrian or Australian I thought that was a Latin song. We call it appropriation Mr. LeBretard.

It grabbed me in all the Latin places, Dan. Very good. The mustache? I'd like to. I took a lot of videos this weekend like those people took at the Mets game where I'm I don't know where I'm ever gonna post I'm not legally allowed to post this anywhere so they're just gonna be on my phone but I felt like I had to do it like everyone else was doing it so I just put up my phone also and film the end of the f1 race what happens if you post it somewhere yeah probably yeah yeah no I technically like it's against Probably yeah. You don't want to find out. Straight to jail. Yeah. No, I technically like it's against the media partnership agreement that we have.

Tony doesn't care but I would like to go back to races because professionally it's a thing that I have to do. So I don't really want to get in trouble even though I probably wouldn't. Wait, what if you sent it to a third party say for instance your friend Priya and Priya post I could probably post it and then you could retweet it. Yeah, so it's the same just laundering your videos But this is also like an international incident right so like then I don't like that twins entrance by the way why because they tell you to turn your phone lights on like it's on the scoreboard It says everybody turn on your phone. So it's like it feels a little you know what instructions exactly right?

I want to feel a natural moment. I want it to happen Everyone does that now every in stadium thing is like turn your phone flashlights on they do it every Third quarter break at the Miami Heat game Yeah, when they do the swag serve which as I pointed out is incredibly outdated at this point. But they hold on tight. A lot of places hand out those like LED wristbands now too. That's fine. That automatically. I like those.

That's fine, yeah. That's because like Billy said, I don't have to do anything. I don't have to do anything. Right. Pull out your phone. My battery's already low. Exactly.

I can't charge it. My flashlight's probably already on, because I'm a dumb idiot who put it in my back pocket and it's always on. Just kidding, I don't do that. Islights probably already on because I'm a dumb idiot who put in my back pocket Is this what you're objecting to the idea that they have to that they're telling you what to do that No, they're requiring me like if we don't do it if my we're all worried about our phone batteries the bit doesn't work They're forcing a moment. Yeah, that doesn't exist unless they're forcing it. Like I should see the lights start flickering. And then think, oh my gosh, let me turn on my phone.

Have a natural moment. Look at this organic crowd reaction. Wow. I think universally the church bell gong thing, everybody likes that. Except for Marlins fans who remember Heath Bell, who would enter to the same sort of gonging did he name was Bell wasn't it I Have like a mental block

Yeah, just said it and I but I don't remember it at all. I don't remember him and I don't mean it makes sense Bell I remember wanting him to thank you Jeremy. Yeah Yeah, he was supporting you I was just just supporting, what happened? Amin was just asking for support, I'm supporting Dan. It does make sense that his name would be Bell and then he would enter to the sound of a bell and then he would ruin all of the Marlins' hopes by blowing five games in the first month of the season. It's an unfair amount of pressure,

that type of entrance, to put on a closer, is it not? Unless he throws 105 and no one can hit him. But you have to close the game, you can't come into and no one can hit him. But you have to close the game. You can't come into that entrance and then blow a save. You have to close the game whether you get the music or the lights anyway. It's still your job to close the game. You think Mariano Rivera is walking out there

getting nervous, like, oh my god, they're playing that music again. You think that, like, the stadium operators, like, guys, we shouldn't play the music in case he blows this. Let's not make him nervous. Little smooth jazz as he enters I'm just saying it's an unfair expectation you come in with that type of music that type of entrance you have to get it done Well, yes, we're not talking about like a little league like eight-year-old going on to the friggin mound like

professional baseball This is how I know we've arrived at the end of the life of this show when Stu got to now become the protector of players Guys stop putting so much under pressure on them. It's bad enough. They gotta close the game. You gotta play that music, too Can we think I just want them to have fun turn off the lights turn off? Turn the lights back on I miss the lights that when you turned them off it took 15 minutes for the stadium to get lit up again What happened to that there used to be power outages by accident you couldn't start a game for half an hour because the lights had to just turn on again. And they would glow and you sometimes you hear the buzz you'd stare at it and it's like is it actually turning on or am I just imagining it? Didn't that happen at the Super Bowl like 10 years ago?

The power went out in a Ravens 49ers Super Bowl. 2012, right? It was the Beyonce one? The Harbaugh one. The Harbaugh's. And Beyonce. And Beyonce. And really, we remember it for Beyonce. At the time, it was probably the best halftime show. Put it on the poll, please, Juju, at LeBittard Show.

Do you remember 2012 Super Bowl for the Harbaugh's or Beyonce? The Ravens won it, so I blocked it out. Who was it, Stugats, if not Mariano Rivera, because Lee Smith didn't come into music, who was the first closer who added music to his entrance and was so dominating that the music was an accent that was formidable on the intimidation front?

Because I don't have anyone before Mariano Rivera. It was Sparky Lyle. Oh wow! Greatest duos trading cards have arrived at Tim's with two hockey icons on every card like Matthew and Brady Kachuk, rivals teammates family and more connected like never before. Head to Tim's and get yours today at participating restaurants in Canada. Don LeBattard. You were that kind of sad this morning taking the barrage of anger from Stugatz because you hadn't booked him enough interviews.

The only reason I keep bringing this up is because you are throwing a big party on Thursday. You're doing it and I want people to support what you're doing because Stugatz has not made this easy. Stugatz. Well, you know, I, well, yeah, you know. This is the Don LeBattar Show with the Stugats! I talked to Dominique Foxworth this morning who said our guest here, Drew Bledsoe, was the best of the athletes last night doing the comedy.

It's high compliment. You don't expect to be better than the comedians, the professionals. I would assume that most people in that circumstance would be scared no matter how confident they are. So Drew joins us now. Thank you, Drew, for joining us. When is the last time you were that scared to doing anything uh... but you know it

i was uh... i was a little nervous not a lot uh... but i did actually prepare you know my deal is speaking in public on the trip but uh... uh... but uh... actually i was a little bit prepared for that one last night but yeah i was nervous and you know it's high stakes

There's some really funny people up there, but being the funniest athlete. I mean, that's kind of like being the tallest midget, right? I mean, you know, not like not like I was taking down Nikki Glaser or anything Well, but I felt bad took down Gronk I felt bad for the I felt I felt bad for Randy Moss and a bunch of people because the pressure and the expectation of funny when surrounded by those people and you're not necessarily a public speaker used to being on television in front of millions of people and your friends so i i actually thought it was a terrible spot for you guys to be in so to overcome it uh... shows a measure of bravery no lie no matter what it was fun but yeah a lot of pressure like it's let's go put the comedians on the football field and see how they do, right?

I think we would do better at comedy than they would do at football. What were the things from last night that stayed with you? You know, we're just talking about that. We're in the car right now with my brother and my buddy that were there last night, and we're on our way to go play golf with a bunch of the comedians. You know, some of it was so rapid fire and so fast that I kind of can't wait to go back and watch some of it. But Andrew Schultz closed the show and he was just he was just a killer. Nikki Glaser, man, she her set, I told her last night after the show

that she's like a Bond villain, you know, she's really pretty. And she's just an absolute murderer. bond villain you know she's really pretty and she's just an absolute murderer when she gets up there so she was fantastic Grock did a great job of being Grock you know it's funny we're sitting up there and we I can look at the teleprompter dude he was so far off script I didn't know if he was ever gonna come back but he pulled it back in. Let's play for the audience a couple of the jokes last night from Drew Bledsoe and just get his assessment on a little review on these jokes

and if he thought he had done anything better than these jokes over the course of the evening, go ahead and play that sound please. Buddy, you know, you have more rings than I do, but I've experienced a couple of things that you will never experience. You know, the feeling more rings than I do, but I've experienced a couple of things that you will never experience. You know, the feeling of being the number one overall draft pick in the NFL. And a 28th wedding anniversary.

It was yesterday. You know, obviously, buddy, you got really used to not being touched, right? Just like the end of the marriage Did you have any joke writing help or did you handle some of that on your own yeah, um I'm sitting here next to my next to my bro. Adam. Say hi. Hi, uh, yeah My bro one of the funniest humans I know, he helped out and then I'm gonna get in really, really big trouble for this, but I'm willing to wear it. The Giselle joke that actually came from my wife.

Don't tell her I told you. Wow. But it was a, but the truth is it was a replacement for a joke that I had written that was far worse. And she said, no, you can't do that one. And so then she helped me write something that was a little more of a softball. I want to hear that one so badly. Let's not do that. Yeah, no, we're not going there.

She told me I couldn't say it. And then I really get in trouble if I actually told you the joke that she wouldn't let me say. Did you write any of the jokes? I mean, yeah, it's mostly there was a lot of those my material. The thing that I really appreciated was that the you know, the I was I was hesitant to throw in like the wine plug stuff because like, hey, look, I'm not gonna go up there and just shamelessly

promote our winery. But the the the writers actually wrote the wine stuff in for me, which was great. So I appreciated that. Cause you know, it was more genuine cause I wasn't shamelessly just trying to talk about our winery, it's called double pack. You can text us the joke. Do you think Tom Brady's

It was really Do you think Tom Brady's gonna get remarried like tomorrow so he can attempt to have a 28th wedding anniversary just because you said he'll never have one? Probably yeah, never never but never been against him Yeah, that was one of one of Nikki Glaser's best bits was you know about you know Tom doing things people said he couldn't do And I'm not gonna repeat what she said because it's not fit for radio. Um, but, uh, uh, yeah, I don't know, man. I, I, yeah, I hope he finds, I hope he finds a good woman or man. Uh, you know, I, we, there were a lot of, there were a lot of gay jokes last night.

So, uh, you know, whether smoke, there's fire, maybe he actually does like dudes. Who knows? Too many gay jokes. Some might argue, uh, sam j here had some good comedy let's uh... let's see what we've got here from sam j and get drew's assessment here the only ring you have is the one tom one for you so your super bowl ring is just like my strap on

just because you wear it doesn't make it real he's been cucking you for years. And yet here you sit. You like that s***, don't you, you sick s***? Tom, do us a favor and f*** this dude's wife already and get it over with. They came at you hard, Drew. She's so mean. I have my feelings for her. My feelings for her. My feelings were it is the truth is though. Do you think my wife kind of had a crush on him? She invited him over for dinner like every every two weeks. So she may have had a crush on him. I don't think they consummated the relationship. But but I do think she kind of had a crush on

him. There are a lot of people here talking about the moment that was caught. You can probably answer this question directly and solve the case. They are saying that the moment was orchestrated when Tom Brady came up to Jeff Ross and said to him, cut that shit out with the massage jokes at the expense of Bob Kraft I thought it was too well acted unlike the cold open that you guys did on that was an authentic moment man we're sitting up there on the we're sitting up on the stage so I can see the teleprompter I can see what's

scripted and what's not and that was not scripted Tom came up to make sure they weren't Getting after our buddy RKK He's he's he's a guy that both Tom and I have true and genuine affection for I didn't think he was gonna be there. I didn't know he's gonna be there until just before the show last night Just specifically so they would stay out of that's you know stay out of some of that stuff With him, but no that was not scripted. That was Tom actually genuinely coming to his defense. There wasn't a lot that seemed off limits though. That seemed to be the only thing that was off limits.

Was there anything else off limits by rule? Yeah, I mean, we talked earlier when we were doing like some of the pre stuff, you know, you can't go to the kids. And then I told him I wouldn't do any craft jokes. But other than that, man, everything was everything was everything was fair game. Do you have a good story from the after party? Could you have to be honest, you sound like an after party right now. Like you just you had a night didn't you? Well we decided that we would go to the real after party last night which was at the Comedy Store downtown with all the writers and comedians and

I'll just drop one name and it's one of the only names that I would actually be willing to drop but we sat there in a private setting and watched Dave Chappelle riff for about an hour and a half last night so I do I do feel it this morning it's definitely an afterpart different definitely an after after party hangover but it was worth staying up for I mean Dave spelled in my opinion probably the certainly the greatest current living comedian and honestly one of the greatest of all time so man we got to sit and riff with him last night which was fun. What could you tell us about watching Kraft and Belichick interact? You said

you you love Robert Kraft I don't know how icy all that stuff is. They had a, I don't know, probably a 15 minute conversation and nobody else got to listen in on back in the green room. Don't know what was said, but it was a pretty sincere 15 minutes where they had a good long conversation. You know, there's great mutual respect there, obviously. Most successful, you know, combo owner and head coach of all time. Obviously Tom and the rest of that squad had a great, a lot to do with that. But no, there's still genuine respect there between those guys.

What can you tell us your feelings are on the Apple documentary about the dynasty? You know, I haven't watched that much of it, to be honest with you. I did watch, sorry, hold on. I did watch a couple of the early episodes, mostly because my son called me and he goes, hey, Bruce, he has some nice things to say. So you should, uh, you should tune in and, uh, check that out. So I haven't watched the rest of it, but, uh, from what I understand, there was, there was some of it that was, that was, uh, not very kind to, uh, to Bella check. And, um, that's not deserved, man.

He's, uh, he is and always will be one of the greatest coaches of all time. Anything step over the line last night for you, a lot of Aaron Hernandez jokes. Yeah, there were there were you know, which obviously, you know always uh Never maybe all that great to make fun of some of this path But no, I mean it's a roast, you know, you're the only way that you do it wrong is if you don't go all the way right, so you you know, I think when Tom signed up for this thing,

he knew what he was getting into. And yeah, we went all the way there, but that's what it's supposed to be. And the only rule when you do one of those things, you can say whatever you want to say, it just has to be funny. Drew, we have about 20 seconds here. Final question for you.

Anthony Edwards being compared to Michael Jordan your thoughts completely ridiculous, right? I think he's a very very special basketball player and Comparing him to Michael Jordan is a very flattering thing for him as a basketball player and I'll just leave it at that Alright ask that question all week Drew. Thank you for making the time. You do sound like the after party, sir. I appreciate it. I earned that. See ya.

All right, boys. See ya.
