Hello, I'm Dan McDowell, longtime professional broadcaster.
Why subscribe to our Patreon podcast?
Well, perhaps you support our struggle to get out from under the oppressive thumb of the man.
Or, objectively, if you sign up at patreon.com slash the dumb zone,
you'll get the two episodes per week that are available on all podcast platforms, like this one,
plus an additional two episodes each week that
are exclusive to Patreon.
So subscribing on Patreon gets you four episodes per week.
Oh my, what a bargain.
Now, on to today's program.
James Adams of TristateFootball.com here with Coach Ryan Kanega.
Coach, you get the win, 34-27.
All right, all right, all right, all right, all right.
All right, all right, all right, all right, all right.
What?
We have to take that away from him.
I know.
He had too much fun with it on Sunday.
That and naysayer.
Dude, that made me uncomfortable.
Why?
That's what Jake was when we were saying
Saroy would join us.
We're just looking out for you.
Keep that in mind.
Who can fire it?
That's a really good point.
I guess you two.
We would never.
Oh, can we have votes?
Like, we could do like a hostile takeover of the board.
Yeah.
Blake doesn't get a full vote.
Like a coup.
Come on.
You already got all the money.
Yeah, you get the money, we get the votes.
A minute in.
Less than that, I would bet.
Holy.
So today's Jake's last day before his third vacation of the year.
The vacation he told us about four days ago.
That's right.
Oh, yeah, guys.
It's not true.
Did I put that on the calendar?
I'll be out Friday, by the way.
But it wasn't planned more than a couple weeks ago.
And you blamed the lady, which I would never do. And you blamed the lady.
Which I would never do.
I never pass the buck.
Stops right here.
That's where the buck stops.
That's right.
How was your Valentine's Day, fellas?
Great.
My jaw's still sore.
Oh, yeah?
Shouldn't take that long.
You would think. You know, you. Shouldn't take that long. You would think.
You know, you got to find it.
Yeah.
Then she's, you know, directing you to, no, no, no.
Or she doesn't direct enough, and that's the problem.
She's got to resort to.
How long is this going to take?
Resort to the alphabet, right?
The kinesin?
I've absolutely done the kinesin.
Wouldn't you love to see, like...
To varying results.
In your conceptualization of you performing the alphabet kinesin,
wouldn't you love to see it on an Etch-A-Sketch?
See how close you are?
Yeah, because I promise you it's not close.
Oh, interesting.
That's a good...
Like a golf tracer.
Yeah, that's a great idea,
to invent the Etch-A-Sketch
that you can only activate with your tongue.
Right.
What are they...
Even if it is perfect...
Somehow you insert a chip into her.
Yeah, Elon could help here.
And then you do your thing,
and then you could see it up on the big screen afterwards.
This is what you did.
It's like next-gen stats.
Yeah.
It's like Bromo's Telestrator.
Yeah.
That's a great idea, man.
You know, I don't know if those are still...
Actual accomplishment this time would have been good in this time.
Right, exactly.
Like the third hole.
Air adjusted, yeah.
I'm not sure if those are still popping,
but what I can tell you is still popping is the Night Bright.
The Etch-a-Sketch is a thing.
My kids had it.
Yeah, but that was a long time ago, though, bud.
Your kids are adults now.
Yeah, they're 80.
The Night Bright, definitely still a thing.
What's the Night Bright?
It's like a...
I don't even know how to explain it,
but it looks like about the size of a Connect 4 thing.
Blake, can you help me here at all?
You never had one of these?
I think I did. Let's see.
So it's more of a retro thing?
It is a retro thing, but I think they're still somewhat popular.
Nightbrite, Lite.
Yeah, what is up with your Wi-Fi recently?
It's not been great.
No good?
No.
Ever since Wired Will's...
Don't pick that up for me.
Ever since Wired Will's house burned down,
our internet is taking a hit.
There was actually a large night bright light thing
at that Fort Worth Kids Museum that I told you guys
about and it was situated about 15 feet
from the 9-11 Memorial.
Good. You could learn a lot then. You really could.
Oh yeah. These are cool. Yeah.
I don't
exactly know how it works but it's like
you plug stuff in and
make shapes.
It doesn't look like I would have had the patience for this, but I did see the commercials and thought, yeah, I can do that.
And then found out I couldn't.
I was on the road yesterday.
Okay.
No Valentine, your seatbelt will hold you.
Have a heart.
Be safe.
Drive smart.
I did see the have a heart one. drive smart i did see that i thought this bit was done
no no we we i think that they you know what it is i think it's kind of like abortion
where they were like you're good up until this date okay because we did do the story that uh
i believe actually like a federal agency was like hey quit screwing around with your signs.
And TxDot's
like, alright, well, I'm going to have to get these off
before Q4.
Something like that.
Yeah, they got St. Patrick's
Day coming up. Easter's a
big one for them. Those are already written. That's like
Jim Nance in the hotel the night
before. It's
100% done already.
Yeah, I saw it.
I was like, oh, okay.
I thought y'all were done with this, but okay.
I don't mind it.
It is very distracting sitting there trying to
write it down as I'm driving.
It's probably not great.
Yeah, it's good for the show.
More harm than good.
Do you do a lot of voice text?
That's what I do when I'm driving.
No.
I've actually never done it.
What's bad about it then is I don't like how it doesn't always accurately do it,
so I'll like, I have to check it then.
Yeah.
Oh, getting a...
By the way, we're on video today.
How about that?
And we're kind of doing an experimental thing Where we're doing some things that are
Video based
Yet they will still be good
If you are just listening
If you are an audiophile like myself
I'm a foodie
And an audiophile
You're not a foodie
Who eats the same lunch every single day
You go to the same four restaurants
Well I like food
We all do Okay well then we're all foodies Who eats the same lunch every single day. You go to the same four restaurants. Well, I like food. Okay.
We all do.
Okay, well, then we're all foodies.
I just think it's funny when someone says they're a foodie.
Like, oh, you're the one who likes to have really good food?
Oh, okay, cool.
I didn't realize that.
This is the basis of his Bourdain hate, I think.
I don't hate Bourdain.
It's just, let's just look at the rating system when someone dies
and not have to elevate it 80 times.
You should know that among anybody.
You're the guy who loves to S on people when they die.
Yeah, but I think he actually, that's not true unless they were jumping out
from the 70th story of a financial district tall building on the early 2000s.
Just saying, who's quick to throw out a kemp spin is it blake he definitely had a weird situation with like his girlfriend or
wife maybe had done a little reverse me tooing yeah and i think it it played in no small part to his demise at his own hand.
That's interesting because you don't think of the reverse me too.
Remember last week when I confidently told you that Jim J. Bullock
was who invented Jump the Shark?
Yeah, there was a lot of controversy about that.
Well, it turns out it's not Jim J. Bullock,
but it's a guy that looks similar to him.
Do you remember?
I don't recall the date.
I got a lot of feedback on that.
The guy with Married with Children and Happy Days is not Jim J. Bullock.
But someone emailed me a detailed description of Jim J. Bullock and said he doesn't really have a chemspin.
Like he was one of the first openly gay actors in Hollywood, I guess.
I don't know.
But he was in the 80s.
And he was on a show called Too Close for Comfort.
And they had an episode where he was raped by two women.
And I thought...
Luckiest Jim J. Bullock.
Interesting, you know, sitcom.
Especially for the time.
Subject matter, too.
But, you know, that was the era of, I guess, the 80s,
and then you say early 90s was the era of every show is about a latchkey kid
or every movie is about that.
Divorce, yeah.
No, but I credit
Bourdain with...
Bourdain and the fact that I married someone
who was pretty into it
with my
passion
for travel, I suppose.
We have a
passion for watching travel shows.
Yeah, there you go.
Hey, you're going to Europe. I'm about to go to France.
About to go to France.
That was part of our,
I guess, Business Wednesday talk.
Boy, business makes you tired, doesn't it?
It was a lot.
My God.
I think we're surrounding ourselves
with some people that are pretty good
at this business, though.
And hopefully can get us out of it.
Thank God.
But we've been hooking up with some people that
seem to know what they're doing. We'll see.
Maybe they'll just soak us for all we're worth.
Little do they know.
That ain't much.
It's like whenever you like... This is the wrong
time to scam us. If you ever like
leave your wallet or a credit card
or something somewhere and they're like,
lucky I didn't hang on to this. I'm like, see
how far that gets you. Yeah.
Let me see what you can do with that.
The last $40 on here. It
won't be much. $40?
You're not doing that well?
As well as I am?
Not as well as Blake. No one's doing
as well as Blake. Twice in this room.
I'm just living lavish.
Since we're a video, I'll just show you this.
And I also want to say this.
If you have sent us something
and I haven't acknowledged
it on the air,
I'm sorry. We're actually getting
a lot of stuff. And
it's just us. We suck. We're not good
at things. So if I haven't acknowledged
it, let's just say i got it
and i really like it but i did want to shout out to these guys at oakcliffsandlot.com
this is from uh he says patty evans a dude so i got all excited when it was from patty evans
and uh you know started easing them down but then it was a dude. And then I thought, you know what? I'm progressive.
Maybe I'll still get excited
about this. Patrick goes by Patty.
Patrick who? Mahomes.
Oh, really? I didn't feel like I had to.
He's friends with him. I didn't know.
Spongebob or what?
Yeah, anyway, they do free
pickup baseball games,
and they're inviting us to play anytime we want.
We just hang out, have a couple pops, enjoy baseball.
It's not like a men's league baseball thing.
And I think they use wood bats.
We've hosted Jamie Newberg and Levi Weaver in the past.
Both can ball
I emailed Blake about playing
But he never got back to me
Unsurprising
Yeah
Yeah
And he sent us a bunch of gear
He says t-shirts
And he said hats for everybody except Blake
Because Blake won't wear hats
What?
Is that true?
I think Blake is more of a hat guy than I am
Yeah
Oh really?
Well then no Jake
And Blake you get this hat Wow look at this So we'll represent Oak Cliff Is that true? I think Blake is more of a hat guy than I am. Yeah. Oh, really? Well, then no Jake.
And Blake, you get this hat.
Oh, look at this.
So we'll represent Oak Cliff.
That's awesome.
That's our hood.
Yeah.
I'll do that for just a little bit here.
You look like vanilla ice.
Is this a bad hat for me?
Does it work?
Yeah, you're killing it.
Yeah. And koozies, because who doesn't want another koozie? I'll tell you who. Does it work? Yeah, you're killing it.
And koozies, because who doesn't want another koozie?
I'll tell you who.
Patty, me.
Tired of koozies.
I'll take it.
Okay.
My thing is full of ticket koozies, and just anybody who's anybody makes koozies.
That's why I think at the Dumb Zone, I'm saying I don't want to ever create a koozie for the dumb zone. My feel on the koozie
is very similar to my thought on
plastic grocery bags.
It's like I either have
10,000 of them
and I then
get rid of them, and then when I
need one, I have none.
So it's like I'll throw out 20
koozies a year then i'm like you know what
i'd like to keep uh this this beverage cold oh wait i threw them all out i've become
guy who asked for paper at the the not everybody does that at kroger or tom thumb they they all
have it but they hide it okay did you say i take, no. And I started doing that because I told you my recycling company won't even take plastic bags anymore.
So I'm like, what's the point of being a recycling company?
But I also don't think they're woke, so that's good.
That's the main thing you want with your recycling.
A recycling company will take burnt-up books,
but not plastic sacks.
I have a couple of emails or missives.
One is from my architect, who you've met.
Very confused.
She says,
tell Jake to make sure all the hair ties are put away
Cat
Our kitten is having surgery
Oh
To have about 30 removed from her intestines
30?
Jeez
Apparently some cats eat them
Never would have thought about that
But they are everywhere
30 hair ties
Jeez
So yeah, you got yourself a dumb cat I think about that, but they are everywhere. 30 hair ties. Jeez.
So yeah, you got yourself a dumb cat.
I think.
Cat would be here today if Blake wouldn't have
demurred at the idea the other day.
Correctly,
truthfully, or incorrectly,
untruthfully or not, told me that he was
allergic. Couldn't really
spice up the show today, but...
Is that true?
I'm for whatever keeps
the cat away.
Okay, so you're not really allergic.
No. The cat's so chill, dude.
I mean, it would just sit there.
It's an amazing little beast.
Have you always been cat guy?
No, he used to... I've never had one.
I used to hate him.
Remember, he made fun of Julie for her cat dying.
In fact, he said it was a better day because it was dead.
I don't think I should.
I think you both mocked the death of her cat.
R.I.P. Blueberry.
I would never do that.
Cranberry.
Cranberry.
I think Blueberry's the new one.
Blueberry's the one you wanted to die.
No, I didn't.
And to be fair, I wanted Bentley to die, too.
Yeah. And your own dog. Never wanted Bentley to die too. Yeah.
And your own dog.
I've just never lied to cats.
This cat's different.
That's what they all say.
I'm telling you, dude.
I'm telling you, it's a great cat.
You saw it for ten minutes.
He was there for like an hour.
That's right.
When I go to Jake's, I just hang out.
They're like, when are you leaving?
I'm like, what?
We're watching some maps. Starving, dude.
Just go to the fridge, grab a few things.
Yeah.
So if you were to bring it over, are you going to put it in the kid's car seat and buckle it up?
No, but I can tell you what I would have done.
I would have worn it in my little baby.
Yeah, it'd be fun.
It'd be video.
We're thinking about the show here, and you're just thinking about your own little personal.
Won't go to France. doesn't want the cat.
How long's the flight?
Probably eight hours.
Maybe nine.
What if there's wind?
I don't know.
Guess who's paying for that flight?
Who?
Either the biz accounts or a sponsor.
That's the whole thing.
Yeah.
We also probably have some points on the credit card, you know?
You know what?
I'm tired of this.
I'm tired of trying to talk.
You get your own spot on our hotel room floor to sleep?
It would be great.
Yeah, you'll love it. You'll love it. Uncle Hotmail, today is my birthday. It would be great.
Yeah, you'll love it.
You'll love it.
Uncle Hotmail, today is my birthday.
Day 10 subscribe.
Oh, this is from Monday.
I missed it.
Somehow Hotmail went to junk.
Oh, interesting.
Subscriber number 3577.
That's interesting because now we can get a read on.
If you're like, yeah, we got 5,000 subscribers Right away
Well
3,500
After 10 days
There you go
One of the listeners
From the UK
I am a Brit
Sorry Jake and Blake
I also listen from Paris
I could answer questions for you guys
such as
is the United Kingdom France?
from DF Joel
happy birthday to Joel
we have day 2
number 1256 reporting
I'm turning 36 today
let me know if you need library cards
for the city of Dallas.
I got the hookup. Alright.
Okay.
From Raul. Raul H.
That's got to be one of the
least valuable hookups you could
possibly offer, but
I appreciate it. Like you want a guy,
right? A library card guy. Sure.
Yeah.
When's the last time you went down there?
To the
Dallas Public Library? Yeah. Never?
Really? Probably.
Why would he? Uh, I don't know.
He used to live in Dallas. He used to live in Dallas, yeah.
And he's a book guy or whatever. Maybe
when she was real little. It's pretty cool.
Once you sort yourself
through the unhoused out front.
Well, I mean, I use the proper term.
But I was a weekly grapevine library guy.
It feels like a...
You didn't have to pantomime it.
Crawling over like it's District 9.
It feels like a college library.
The last time I was there was when I picked up all of those...
the accommodation books.
And I kind of just like walked
around for a minute. I'm like, damn, this place is great.
I forgot. A lot of follow-up
on
remote pricing. And we'll talk more
I guess tomorrow about this because we're
trying to come to some decisions on
when this steal of $6.90
per remote is going to end.
Because again, we're hiring.
We're surrounding ourselves.
I don't know about hiring.
That would take compensation.
With smart people who are good at business who are telling us,
you've got to cut this off.
We can't be doing this.
And we're like, yeah, but all the people who supported us so early,
we're going to honor everything that's already out there.
That's who we are.
I mean, you know what?
That's our biggest fault.
Generosity.
Anyway,
we were trying
to find a
sexual position
that's higher than
690.
Because everything has to be a bit.
Yeah.
And so, I guess, let's see.
This guy says
818
represents
two sets of boobs
with a wiener in between.
Okay. Supposedly.
How would that even work?
And then I also got one.
Oh, okay. Two sets? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, where's the friction coming from? And then I also got one. Oh, okay. Two sets.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, where's the friction coming from?
And then we got 8008 because it spells boob on the calendar.
Calculator.
Or calculator.
Sorry, calculator.
Turn it upside down.
It was 80085.
Okay, boobs.
Yeah.
Popular one.
Or 135.
So we're working on it. Yeah. It's a popular one. Or 135. So, we're working on it.
135.
Boobies.
Oh, okay.
At the end.
I can see it, yeah.
I see the vision.
Yeah.
And my final email for today would be...
Hello, DZ.
Hate to pick on Jake.
Uh-oh.
Because I believe you're all equally dumb.
Thank you.
Huh.
I have a feeling.
But at the end of Friday's episode,
you made a deal to swap shows
that you've been pressuring each other to watch.
Jake would reluctantly watch The Morning Show.
Dan would finally watch Generation Kill.
The next bit was Dan playing some Country Joe and the Fish.
Asked if Jake and Blake had heard it.
Both said no.
What I was playing on Friday, if you remember, was this.
Hold on, let me turn this off and turn this on.
This was on the Woodstock album that my mom had hidden in the albums I'm not allowed to listen to.
It was like a compilation?
Yeah.
Yeah.
A little Hendrix.
Catch a little Hendrix National Anthem, a little, I don't know who else was there.
There was probably a lot of people there.
Woodstock, famous people.
Right?
Yeah.
No, it was it was
a fairly
popular concert
event
anyway
this is
let's see
day one
DF Bruce
patron number 13
wow
Taylor
says in episode
four
of Generation Kill
Ray Person
Corporal
do we have the video?
Can we pull it up?
We actually, he sent the clip.
It's one, two, three, why do we fight before?
Yep.
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn.
Oh, wow.
Next stop is Vietnam.
Look, there's the guy from Oz.
Oh, yeah.
Five, six, seven, open up the guy from Oz. Oh, yeah.
And that's Ziggy.
From The Wire?
Really?
The other one is Skarsgård.
Oh, right there.
From Succession.
From everything. So I guess what Day 1 DF Bruce, patron number 13, is saying.
Is I lied?
Or I just have a terrible memory?
Yeah.
Well, there ain't no time to wonder why we all gonna die.
He also says, P.S.
This was gonna be thrown P.S. This was going to be thrown away.
Nope.
P.S. More Blake.
Heck yeah.
Thanks, man.
Heck yeah.
That's a really good catch.
That is a good catch.
I've seen that episode 20 times, but I just didn't recognize it as an actual song.
Did he not wipe?
Are they just not going to show that?
Blake, they're in combat.
You moron.
So there might be a light wipe, but not much.
Okay, well that seems uncomfortable.
Yeah, it's probably a little bit less uncomfortable
than being targeted by enemy snipers,
if you could pick one of the two.
Just a thought.
It just seems like our soldiers should have some sort of wipes.
You know what?
I might crack open the morning show tonight, boys.
Okay.
What if we sent...
Do you send wipes to soldiers?
We should ask Joe this sometime.
Oh, I definitely did.
Okay.
Yeah.
He's like, oh, this is great.
Oh, yeah.
That, I mean, it's what you think it is
it's like wipes rip fuel and chew chew yeah can't send gummies do they check everything you send
um i bet they do but i mean i was talking to a guy in the halloween candy bit yeah there you go
i was talking to a guy the other day who did like three tours in the aughts in Iraq,
and he was like, man, there was booze everywhere.
Which my brother told me he never saw.
That was not a factor for him.
Doesn't the show start with them opening mail?
Yeah.
With letters from elementary school kids.
And they're like, yeah, this is great.
So there's only eight episodes?
I wonder if I can knock that out before Jake gets back.
It moves quick, too.
From his exotic vacation.
But I got a 40-episode watch of the morning show.
I do like 15-minute shows.
You just need season one, I think.
Probably two,
because we got to see him die.
Dude.
Jeez,
bro.
Come on.
Yeah.
And then I had a couple other little things before we get to content.
I don't know what else you guys have that's not like just massive,
awesome content.
I mean,
I was really like stoked to hear about your Valentine's Days,
but it appears like both of you kind of did nothing.
I sent her flowers at work.
At work?
That's a boss move.
You have to do it at work.
That's the problem with your wife working at home.
It's like this is pointless.
Because the only reason I was sending him to her job is so people would be like,
he's not that bad.
Right.
But now if it's just to home.
And the worst part is I was there. It was before we left for our business meeting. Did it get bad. Yeah. Right. But now if it's just to home, and the worst part is I was there.
It was before we left for our business meeting.
Did it get there?
Yeah.
No, I went in the day before.
Oh, okay.
And I sent some for my wife and for my daughter.
But it's so, there's just not a lot of romanticism to it if we're both just at home.
Did you do daddy-daughter dance?
No, we're not to that stage yet.
Okay, she's definitely old enough.
Well, I mean, her school doesn't have one.
No, Grapevine Library and stuff will host them.
I whiffed on that.
That's where I would always do it.
I've never done one with a school.
I've done it either at the city of Grapevine or city of Southlake.
They'll both have it, and they'll usually be at the library.
I will remember this 360-plus days.
Yeah.
And then they'll have stuff, a little craft room, whatever.
You make a little – you probably see some of the stuff lying around here.
And then they'll have like – there will be a huge line.
Treats and stuff.
And it's to go in a limo ride.
Ooh.
So you stand in line for like an hour, and then you get in a limo,
and it drives you around like, you know.
A parking lot?
Town Square or something.
Yeah, yeah.
It's not really far, and then you get back,
and it's like the first time they've ever been in a limo.
I did buy her a Ninja Turtles backpack.
Despite the fact that she's never actually seen the movie,
she's been made aware that that was my main thing as a kid.
And so now she's really into it.
Yeah, we have to push whatever we liked as kids.
I actually didn't push it.
I think my mom just showed her some pictures of me
dressed as a Ninja Turtle when I was a kid.
Yeah.
And she's like, it's really weird, dude.
Even though male you know,
male, female, whatever,
like she genuinely wants
to be into whatever I'm into.
We do that, though.
Like she'll watch football with me
and be like,
hey, who do we want to win?
And I'm like,
come on.
Like, I don't want to force this on you.
Like he's,
Brooks is like watching Scooby-Doo now
because that's what I watched
and I thought it was awesome
it is cool
hopefully one day they can both throw
Kraft singles onto
oncoming traffic in the summer
how's the singing telegram doing
boy I hadn't heard about that
in a long time
why'd you send one?
no
I just thought that used to be a thing, right?
Where you'd send it to work and they would sing your nice little tune.
I've at least heard of it and I didn't ever know if that's just a TV thing.
Yeah, I don't know anybody who's ever done it.
I would only do it if it were Alamo art.
Just shitty.
So I took a bite of some food the other day
Were you about to say something?
I was just going to say
We didn't do much
Oh I'm sorry
I didn't do anything
I had a buy one get one coupon
That we used last night
Little BOGO?
Little BOGO
Okay
Shouldn't you always get one if you buy one?
That's a
Oh god
Go to Biloxi or something
If you buy one and you get one
An extra one Then that's Now that's a... Oh, God. Go to Biloxi or something. If you buy one and you get an extra one,
then now that's a bogan.
This...
That's a terrible...
That's a great point.
I've read that before.
This moment right now is why we are not a comedy podcast.
Oh, damn.
That's an assault, brother.
Because of that remark right there.
Tell us your anecdote, Dan.
Make it funny.
It's not Bo Goff.
It's Bogo.
I'm just saying,
logically, if you read
that just for what it means.
So I took a bite of something the other day, and I ate it, and I swallowed it.
And then I was like, oh my gosh.
And then I did a Google search.
And the search is, how long is leftover pizza good in the refrigerator?
Because we had our Friday 690 show.
No, it wasn't Connie.
It was Beeman Pizza.
Oh, that's right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The pizza that they-
Betsy.
Betsy forced upon us, and I acted like I didn't want it, but I was very happy to have it.
Sure.
And just kind of sat in the fridge, ate a piece every now and again,
but then it was, I think it was yesterday.
Ooh, you're pushing it there.
Well, maybe it was Tuesday.
Okay, it was the day before.
Even Friday to Tuesday is eh.
Because I walked into the kitchen and Dan was in a cold sweat,
like looking at his phone.
Yeah, because I'm like, so it says, what, three to four days, I think it was.
Anyway, it was day five.
And I'm like, I should have searched this before I ate.
Did you heat it up?
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
Because in my caveman brain, I feel like when you heat something up, it kills the germs.
Yeah.
Well, and I thought of this because-
Like if you have a hot rag.
I walked in, or after Blake walked in today,
I see downstairs there's like a little thing of macaroni
and some rice and something else,
and Blake, I'm like,
do you want me to put this in the fridge for you?
No, I'll just heat it up after the show.
I feel like you're going to get botulism, dude,
and we need you.
We need you tomorrow.
I think you only get botulism from meat.
I think you're going to get salmonella.
There's some meat in there.
Okay, well.
That's my leftover Moe Bettis from last night.
Okay.
Yeah, I don't care.
I'm just concerned about you.
No.
I mean, if I get sick.
This guy, I would say he can do it.
I've seen him eat so much.
Yeah, but if you guys recall, about a couple years ago,
I had like a two-day incident where I was – I'm pretty sure I got food poisoning from eating –
Old food?
Yeah.
Hmm.
For most of my life.
I'm a big leftover guy.
It's weird to me when I meet people who aren't.
Yeah.
Like I have in-laws that are like whenever we're leaving a restaurant, I'm like –
They just throw it all away?
Yeah.
They just don't, yeah.
And then, since it was Business Wednesday,
I was falling asleep thinking of business ideas, as I will do.
And I thought, we can shape the world the way we want it.
You know, I can watch games when I feel like watching them.
They occur when I say they occur.
And although we were scouting out another studio location yesterday,
and I think we feel things are going good in that direction,
trending in the right direction,
we could still say, if we wanted to,
every Friday is Pizza Friday in the Den.
Like, we don't have to go five days a week to a certain location.
I mean, we can.
Yeah, you know,
I mean, I'm pretty sure, I'm not
positive about this, but even if we did
go to that location, I bet we
could get pizza delivered there. I know, but
don't you think, like, we want to keep
this as some kind of a...
I do like the vibe for
like, we're heading into the weekend.
Dan doesn't want to drive there five days a week.
That's fine.
We'll work it out.
But he's luring us here with pizza.
Yeah.
Or a half-priced sandwich.
Yeah, you...
Bogo.
You're a big pot-bellied Bogo guy.
You understand that.
I'm just saying when I read that, I say, boy, that's not logical.
That you should obviously get one if I bought one.
I would think that's just the norm.
Like the sign says, what if you're right and they're wrong?
I love our little rotating logo.
Isn't that cool?
Pet it.
You can pet it.
Anyway.
Blast it
What if we
Give it a double digi
Shift gears
Okay Jake
We have a Super Bowl recap
From our show
Super Bowl commercials
Micah
And
Zimmer
What do you say?
Spin the no puppet wheel
No puppet, no puppet, no puppet
Let's start with a little bit of Zim
Okay
Did the press conference yesterday
I thought it was kind of weird that
Neither Jerry or Steven were there
Seems like something Jerry would
have been there for, but I don't know where. He's probably got something going on, whatever
it is. Manny Pacquiao's fighting, the X Games. The lawsuit. The lawsuit, yeah, might have
been in court. Maybe a blood, you know. Infusion. Yeah, he just McCarthy and Mike Zimmer.
And, you know, it was interesting because for a couple reasons.
The first one is that it was just the two of them.
The second one is the Cowboys have started doing this bit with their press conferences, which makes me kind of uncomfortable.
I don't know if you've seen this pulling audio, Blake.
They cut to the reporter when they ask a question,
and they're like in 4K.
That's recent.
They definitely were not doing that for the whole season.
But now, like, here's John Machoda with, like, a tight shot.
In a lower third.
In a lower third.
So, like, they know who's coming up?
I think they just have somebody like Laughing Video Man
who just immediately is on it.
Okay, nice.
It's just weird.
It looks like a TV show almost.
But not everybody gets the lower third.
No, not everyone.
You've got to be one of the top five.
That's what you get with the great Tad.
That's right.
Yep.
So this I thought was interesting as far as McCarthy,
who got the first couple questions on what the coaching search was like.
Playoff time.
About matchups.
You know what?
WFA, your website.
I don't love it.
Here we go.
I've always had such great respect for Mike.
We've competed against each other
so many times over the years.
Even going back to New Orleans when Mike was coordinating here in Dallas
and obviously our time in NFC North.
So really just going through the whole process,
post announcement of Dan getting the Washington job.
We kind of had two buckets that we looked at as far as individuals that they were
tied to the existing defense
and then looking at former head coaches with something that, if you point to my history,
is a preference that I feel is very important.
And then having a chance to sit down and talk to Mike and I'll let him talk about his time off and so forth.
But I just think it's an incredible fit for us.
talk about his time off and so forth.
But I just think it's an incredible fit for us.
So I thought that was pretty interesting because they did, like you said,
sorted it in two ways.
Like are you familiar with the Dan Quinn primarily cover three,
cover one, base package?
We're going to play a lot of dime, a lot of big dime.
Maybe you were on the staff before.
Maybe you worked with Quinn before. Or,
and I believe this is an area where probably Jerry and Mike McCarthy's preferences align, is I want a guy who's like 60 and proven.
It would probably even help if I already had like worked with the guy in some capacity before.
You know, we used to say this about like Lincoln Riley when there were rumors about him going to the NFL.
And, oh, Jason Garrett's going to get fired.
I was like, dude, the Cowboys would never do anything like that.
Not since he hired Jimmy from...
Exactly.
And you could even sort of make the case about Garrett, but Garrett was a legacy Cowboy.
And he had been the OC for
three or four years when they promoted him to head coach. He was already on staff, you
know? This is the type of hire, and at the same time, I think at first glance, it's easy
to look at it and be like, oh, this is just another good old boy Jerry hire. But in the
column I wrote for D Magazine the other day,
dmagazine.com slash sports,
I really don't think that's what it is.
I think Mike Zimmer's good,
and he's proven himself to be really good
against the Shanahan coaching tree,
which obviously has been whipping the Cowboys' ass
over the last few years,
whether it's either LeFleur, Kyle Shanahan,
Sean McVay, Mike McDaniel,
and Zimmer's produced pretty good results against those teams.
Yeah, I like the number one thing he said there.
It's kind of like the we're not hiring a guy.
This goes back to our we really liked uh the belichick and saban documentary
when they talked about we do things a certain way we don't hire someone and now we just change the
way we do them yeah because that's the the kind of coordinator you are um which is a new way of
the cowboys to do things like it's interesting that they now have a way to do things because i
think when they brought dan quinn in they said hey what do you want to do? We'll hire the kind of guy you want. But I do like that. If
you have a way you do things, it seems the franchises who do that are pretty successful.
And then I never thought that about McCarthy, but I do know he, you know, just off the top of my
head, I know he hired Dom Capers, right, as a coordinator.
He had been a head coach before.
Mike Nolan was a head coach.
Okay, Mike Nolan.
That makes sense.
Dan Quinn.
And you think about that, that's interesting.
I'm reading the Belichick, one of the Belichick books out there right now,
and there's a lot of talk, you know, once he,
after the Cleveland experience, and then once he ended up,
then he went to the Jets, and then he went back to New England,
he had some of his same players come with him,
and they couldn't believe the difference in him.
Like, you actually do learn a lot.
Sure.
And so if you're going to hire a first-time head coach,
you're going to have a lot of – you're going to have growing pains.
Seemingly, everybody, maybe Sean McVay is a very rare example
of somebody who seemed to jump right into it and be fine.
But perhaps, you know, you got to even think he's learned something along the way.
Oh, no doubt.
I think it's more common now for you to be able to be a little bit more
successful early on just because the lower ranks scheme-wise
are filtering up more.
I mean, Shanahan was pretty successful pretty quickly.
Yeah.
So I think that's part of it is that the NFL is morphing.
But it's interesting you bring up that point about Belichick
and his former players coming back to play for him
because as we all know, Zimmer was retained
when Bill Parcells became the head coach.
And that was like a huge badge of honor that it's like, hey,
Parcells wants his own guys, players, and coaches, right?
We hear about the Parcells guy.
And the fact that he kept Mike Zimmer was just like, again, wants his own guys, players and coaches, right? We hear about the Parcells guy.
And the fact that he kept Mike Zimmer was just like, again,
huge badge of honor.
And I feel like in this clip he sounds exactly like Bill Parcells.
And it's 90 seconds so we can stop and start.
Jeff Colvin, Fox 4.
Mike, welcome back.
Two questions for you.
You spent some time at the college level the last two years.
Can you talk about that? Did you guys even know that?
With Dion? Yeah. I didn guys even know that? With Dion?
Yeah.
Who did? Zimmer was like a consultant for
Jackson State and
Colorado. Okay, I kind of remember hearing
something like that. And he'll get into this here
like he wasn't at practice.
Yeah, consulting is what we want to do.
Exactly. But he coached
Dion in Dallas and they've stayed in such close contact
that Deion brought him in to be like a quality control consultant.
Can you talk about your connection with Deion
and what your style is for connecting with young players today?
Yeah, well, first thing is, is that, you know, Deion and I connected here
many, many years ago.
I didn't know him at all.
You know, the first time I met him, you know, he basically had an entourage with him
and, you know, the change and all the stuff.
And we've become unbelievably great friends.
You know, I haven't spent as much time at Jackson State in Colorado as people think.
Quite honestly, I was at Jackson State two days, and I have never been to Colorado.
But we talk on the phone a lot.
He asks me a lot of questions about coaching and coaches and coaching and different things.
And as far as the second question, there's a reputation out there that I'm a jerk or something like that.
And I think this is the most important part of the press conference
because this is what I was wondering about when they hired him.
Like, Dan Quinn, despite the fact that he kind of looks like Dan Campbell
and he's all big and badass, he feels like,
not to say he's not going to coach you hard,
but he kind of feels like your buddy.
You know, his hat's on backwards.
He's up there shouting MFs.
I know I've heard Micah talk about, like, Coach Quinn will point out, like,
four plays that went wrong in practice and highlight those, and I like that.
But Zimmer's a little bit different.
And so this is the part I was most interested in.
A jerk or something like that.
I'll back it up just a little bit.
There's a reputation out there that I'm a jerk or something like that,
which it is what it is, I guess.
But, you know, since it was announced that I was going to be here,
I've heard from so many players that played for me,
players here, not just defensive backs,
but linebackers and defensive linemen texted me and said how happy they are for me.
And I think if I was such a jerk,
I wouldn't be hearing from those guys.
And secondly, you were part of the last.
I thought that was two questions.
I thought that was an interesting thing to leave in there
because he's like, I'm not a jerk.
And the guy's like, you already asked two questions, dummy.
But I'm not a jerk to the players.
No, no.
But that's what Parcells used to say, right, was that, hey, if I'm such a –
if people hate me so much, why are these guys calling me
when they're 40, 50,
60 years old or whatever the case might be?
Probably not 60, but you know what I mean.
But that wasn't even a question though, was it?
He just thought I'm going to bring that up? Well, I think what he said was – I think what Jeff Kolb said was,
how does your style relate to the younger player of today?
Okay.
And I think Zimmer kind of internalized that as like,
you think it means that I can't talk to a 23-year-old.
And I think that's a question.
Yeah.
One more here.
And then he said that your style is to not be someone who is your friend.
This is Classic Dony.
And he is referring to an article where Darren Woodson was quoted pretty heavily about how much he loved playing for Zimmer.
Just to get the best out of you, how would you describe your coaching style?
Has it evolved at all over the years, or are you still the same guy you've been your entire career?
Well, I think these guys that have been here saw me 18 years ago.
They've evolved.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be sitting in, and I think I've evolved, too, or otherwise I guys that have been here saw me 18 years ago, they've evolved. Otherwise, they wouldn't be sitting there.
And I think I've evolved, too, or otherwise I wouldn't be sitting here.
But, you know, I'm demanding.
I try to get the best out of the players.
But, you know, to me, there's a difference.
You know, I had one player who was a terrific player, and you could not yell at him.
You had to put your arm around him.
You had to talk to him, whisper.
He didn't like to be reprimanded in front of people.
And so that's what I did with him.
And he became a terrific player.
Other players, you know, I'd get after.
And you know, probably know some of the names.
One of them was here.
But I'll say it to him, Pac-Man Jones, right?
He gives me the biggest hugs now when I see him,
but we've had our issues going back and forth,
and I think everybody's different.
You try to hit the button however it is to make them better.
Got it.
Kevin, sharing. Now I left that last little part in there because, as we've noticed, however it is to make them better. Got it.
Now I left that last little part in there because, as we've noticed in press conference,
when people start to get emotional or a little bit nervous, they start doing the knock.
And you can hear him getting a shake voice. You know, I think everybody's different.
You try to hit the button however it is is to make them better huh listen that's interesting he got shake voice multiple times
which you know about the thought of players reaching out to him about yeah how much he
cares yeah and like the way that he's perceived He also referenced something of, which I didn't have time to look into,
but he had some sort of family situation the last couple years
that he was able to, I guess, be more present for,
maybe a parent or something like that.
Somehow overcome that with the help of his Instagram hot.
I think they broke up.
Oh.
But, yeah.
Instagram's a big C out there, though.
I do believe that that woman was younger than his daughter,
who he referenced multiple times because they live in the area,
and she has twins.
Okay.
I'm like, all right, dude.
Instagram hot for a 60-plus-year-old man who sometimes wears an eyepatch.
Yeah, it definitely matters how old you are.
You never seen the eyepatch?
I guess not.
Look it up.
He coached wearing an eyepatch.
I like that a lot.
You know, I think coaches who fail,
and maybe this goes back to Belichick's first time in Cleveland,
everybody is treated the same.
Yeah.
And that just is not the way it is.
And here's a...
Think about Jimmy.
Part right from that Belichick book.
Says, Belichick had one high-maintenance issue to deal with.
This is during their first Super Bowl with the Patriots.
Lawyer Malloy was complaining about the size of his hotel room.
His coach solved the problem by giving the safety his suite,
complete with a jacuzzi and treadmill that had been installed
specifically for Belichick.
Once that crisis was averted, the Patriots were in a favorable place
spiritually and emotionally.
Wow.
Like prepping for the Super Bowl that week in New Orleans.
That's awesome.
And you would never, if you think of Bill Belichick, you know.
Yeah.
Stoic.
Highway or the highway.
Yeah.
I cut players.
You know, whatever.
It doesn't matter.
I got rid of Tom Brady too early.
And yeah.
So, yeah, clearly you need to.
Requesting jacuzzis and treadmills in his hotel room?
The jacuzzi was probably already there.
Yeah.
The treadmill probably had to be retrofitted.
But it's where Belichick would work.
Prep, yeah.
Yeah, you don't have – I mean, most coaches, I feel like,
use a team facility at least for a nice walk.
They can't go outside and jog.
They can't go down to, like, the common gym.
But also, not just that, but just –
Although I did see Jim Montgomery there one time.
Every player needs to – you know, some guys learn visually.
Some guys learn by doing.
Sure.
And that's got to be a pretty difficult thing for a football coach
with so many players to, you know, try to pinpoint how –
you know, what's the best way for this guy to get the best out of this.
But I suppose you're really doing that with the guys you know have the most amount of talent.
You're like, well, okay, I'm going to really figure out how to deal with him.
You know, it's really just like any other job, right?
It's like any other form of management where you have to figure out different ways
to communicate with different people.
The only difference I would say is that in pro sports, in particular in the NFL,
you're talking about like 60 dudes who could all beat anybody's ass on the street
and they're all super teed up and make a ton of money for the most part. So you're just way
closer to the margins of like,
I can't screw this up.
You know, if your boss at your sales job
is kind of a jerk to you,
and it makes you not want to work that hard,
like,
that's not that big of a deal.
Kind of get over it.
But if you're lawyer Malloy,
or Tom Brady,
it can be a big deal.
So, I'm just going to play you one thing
from this Micah podcast,
and then we can move on to our Super Bowl stuff.
It's weird because, as we talked about before,
Micah has a podcast that is produced and, I guess, presented.
By the way, do you saw the eyepatch?
Yeah, it's not like a pirate one.
No, it's like an injury one.
It's like a bandage. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, I thought he's not like a pirate one. No, it's like an injury one. It's like a bandage.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, I thought he
was coaching like a pirate.
It's still a patch.
Why does he have a parrot?
What?
Yeah, we shouldn't be a comedy podcast.
Yeah.
So,
Micah will put these episodes out.
It's usually once a week.
It's called The Edge with Micah Parsons.
But I started seeing these clips of him talking to CD
and him talking to Jordan Love,
and then I went to the podcast feed,
and they weren't on there.
Where they are is on Max.com,
formerly known as HBO.
Oh.
Because they have a partnership
with Bleacher Report,
and eventually you're going to have to pay
like an extra $9 a month
to get the sports tier.
Because they're going to run live games,
they have all these, you know,
sports shows that will no longer
be a part of regular HBO.
So Micah had like three or four episodes on here
that I think he did at the Super Bowl
that are not on the podcast app.
You have to have Max to watch this.
So I watched, what, three weeks after
the Packers dismantled the Cowboys defense, if that,
he just sits there with the opposing team's quarterback
that just sent him home and they
talk for an hour and uh this is pretty much the meat of what's been making the rounds share your
analysis with the game like you know youngest team to make the playoffs since 1978 um what was
y'all game plan like what was y'all game plan it's y'all yeah go win that was our game plan man we
better go win better go beat these boys i mean obviously y'all game plan? It's y'all? Yeah. Go win. That was our game plan, man. We better go win.
Better go beat these boys.
I mean, obviously y'all execute the game plan,
but what was the strategy?
Like who was y'all trying to eliminate?
What was like some of the keys that y'all picked on?
Like show us how you, your growth,
how you dissected the game,
what you thought we were in.
Obviously made some great plays extending with your legs,
but just dive into what was your strategy, philosophy of how to, you know,
break down our defense.
Okay, before he gets to the answer,
just imagine this happening any time in previous sports history.
I mean, I guess the closest thing I can think of is like when Draymond
was podcasting during the series with the Mavs and talking about Luka.
But this is just an entirely new era, man.
It's like best player on one side, best player on the other side.
Like this is the sort of thing that Magic and Bird would do 25 years later.
Right, later.
Yeah.
Never two weeks later.
Insane.
Like I'm sitting here thinking that he should not answer this question.
Yeah, I wouldn't.
I'm sitting here thinking he he should not answer this question. Yeah, I wouldn't. I'm sitting here thinking he shouldn't be on this podcast.
I'm thinking his coach is like, what are you doing?
Yeah, man, I think the key for us going into the game
was we needed to run the ball.
That was a huge thing.
Obviously, we played y'all the year before,
and I felt like we ran the ball pretty well.
So just going against y'all, I'm not trying to talk,
but y'all linebackers,
I think y'all had a DB playing linebacker.
I don't know, but that was our goal was to be able to run the ball,
and it was going to set everything else up.
And obviously, I think y'all biggest weapon is y'all pass rush.
And so great DBs over there too, but I feel like they rely on the pass rush.
You know what I mean?
When you've got a great pass rush,
you're thinking the quarterback
gonna get the ball out of his hands quick.
And so we were able to take advantage of that by,
you know, get some chips on you,
slow you down a little bit.
D Lawrence, slow him down a little bit,
but I knew I was gonna have to hang in that pocket.
Take a couple hits from you,
take a couple hits from those guys.
The guys we had at receiver, man,
I was confident that they were gonna go out there
and do what they needed to do against the rdbs man yeah man why was aaron following me all game like
that bro let's talk about aaron jones here who really did kind of do a number on micah yeah man
why was aaron following me all game like that bro aaron jones yeah i did not expect that out of him
bro well that's the thing our game plan like, we have specific play calls where it's like,
all right, we chipping.
We're going to get the tight end, the running back chipping.
We got, you know, stud jet protection.
We going after the stud, man.
But he's literally exposing the terms of their playbook right now.
Yeah.
Jonesy in that game, bro, he did some phenomenal stuff.
It was sometimes we was doing play action stuff where he just,
he checking for, like, the nickel coming off the edge,
and if he not coming, he's supposed to get on his route and my fault and he would feel
you beat one of our old linemen and he would just instinct just just go to chip you and help and
protection it was unbelievable like it was on most of those inside rushes i was like no way he's
supposed to be there bro he was not he and that's just that's just the player he is where he's at
in the league man to to know how
good of a rusher you are and just be able to pick you up and help you know give me some time back
there because there was a couple of them if he wouldn't have did that i don't know bro i don't
know like i'm coming up to sound like yo like what like what is going on like that was tough like i
i'm not gonna lie i saw him yesterday i was like bro i was like i don't know if he was supposed to
do that like he was just doing that like he freestyling out there and picking up and doing some great things.
Jonesy not the biggest dude, bro.
Not.
But he got a lot of heart, bro.
He did.
He got a lot of heart right there.
He did.
I was like, that was tough.
That was tough.
See, Mike is saying he's coming back to the sidelines like, he's not supposed to be blocking
me.
Like, we've watched this on film.
Why is he in here right now?
And he's just sitting there talking to the opposing team's quarterback
as they're both just kind of talking through.
They're probably going to play again.
This is insane.
I can't believe it's happening, and I love it.
I know.
It's great.
Yeah.
And like you guys, I don't know, what did you just say?
Like, I think their coaches probably hate it.
Dude.
What are you doing?
And see, that's the thing.
Like, what would Belichick say to this?
And I feel like Micah kind of had a little bit of a substitute teacher
situation where Quinn was gone for, like, there was, like,
a two-week gap before Zimmer got hired because I'm pretty sure Mike Zimmer –
and if you have Max, you should go watch the whole thing
because it's fascinating.
Well, I'm more for Mike saying it, but hey, Jordan Love,
don't tell everyone what we do.
I would think so, yeah.
But I –
Some of it seemed pretty basic, like, yeah, we all knew.
Run the ball.
Yeah, they're very – that's a weakness.
Cowboy linebackers, their strength is running.
Okay, that should be something we're –
Okay, then I'll play you this one then.
I'll do one more.
This one's a little bit shorter.
And this is Micah talking about what they call coverages under Dan Quinn.
He does have a little bit of an out here that Quinn has gone.
So anything he's giving away here
is probably going to change.
Allen, that's what we call cover three.
Okay. Give me another call.
You know,
this don't matter because we got a new BC.
Are we writing this? We got a new BC.
I'm giving you the scoop for a whole different team.
Okay, maybe we play Washington Commanders.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe we play them in the future.
I'll take these notes down, man.
You know, but it might be a whole different city now.
It's not Texas no more.
Oh, that was a co-word for him?
So we'll have like Waco.
That'll be a check to like a three by one.
Like if you had speed at three.
So if he was in like a regular cover three, we'll check to Waco.
And the safety would come down strong.
Three by the fast three.
So it'll be like it's Texas coverages.
You know coverages and all that?
Yeah.
Okay.
That's great.
He's like telling you we named all of our coverages out of Texas,
Allen, Waco, whatever.
I love all of that, man.
And Jordan Love's like, are we writing this down?
Yeah, that's awesome.
So anyways, it's a very fascinating listen.
It's definitely a different era.
He's such a baby.
He is.
Why are you guys chipping me?
Why are you chipping me?
I didn't expect that.
Why can't you let me get a sack?
Yeah, let me dominate.
What are you doing having adjustments?
That's wrong.
All right.
Let's do some drainage, and then we'll play stuff from our Super Bowl coverage.
The Dunza, Dunza, Dunza.
Doesn't Mike Shanahan have half a tattoo that if –
Kyle.
Kyle Shanahan, sorry.
Yeah.
He has half a tattoo that matches up with someone else's half a tattoo?
No, he has a full tattoo that matches up with someone else's half a tattoo?
No, he has a full tattoo that he, Rod Babers, Chris Sims,
and I want to say one or two other Longhorns all have.
Rod Laber?
Like it's just for their special friendship?
Yeah.
And when they all put them together, makes like a penis The legend has grown
Far beyond
They all press them together
They have to do a human centipede
Nux in boys
A human centipede
It turns into a perfect penis
What if I can get
That's a perfect one
I'm in
By the fourth quarter
If I can get someone up here
Yeah
To give us all a tattoo,
like a 15-way, and it'll form some kind of cool thing.
As long as mine links to Jake's.
Well, Dan, I've seen you try to order pizza before,
and there's no way in hell it'll be here by the end of the game.
Get him an iPad.
I can get this done.
No way.
All I do is mention it to YouTube.
The tat tracker.
I can't.
You were so right on that whole thing. You were imposs do is mention it to YouTube. The tat tracker. I can't. You were so right on that whole thing.
You were impossibly right on the whole thing.
The tat tracker.
The pizza thing was madness.
He's in route.
It says he's in route.
You're listening to The Dumb Zone.
You don't want to dig up things of the past,
but I do think a lot of people were anticipating,
hey, once this six-month fog lifts,
the dog just took your napkin.
Oh.
Literally.
Moron dog.
He literally.
Hey, boy.
That was life imitating art.

No puppet.. No I guess thanks. I don't know. It's cool. I don't remember it. I hear it every day and I still love it.
Well, that makes two of us of the three.
All right, so let us recap the Super Bowl.
Super Bowl number...
Super Bowl.
Do we remember?
Do we know anymore?
Was it LVIII, so 58?
Is that right? That doesn't seem right. It feels like 53 is the right. Do we remember? Do we know anymore? Was it LVIII, so 58?
Is that right?
That doesn't seem right.
Feels like 53 is the right.
I was going to say 53, yeah.
What do you think?
Why are we the way that we are?
Okay, well.
Who cares?
Yeah, man.
Nothing matters.
So let's start by looking at some of the Super Bowl commercials,
and then I want to play some stuff from our— I was exactly right.
It's 58?
Yes.
It's not 53?
Damn.
It's like two boobs.
The eight.
Sideways.
So—
It is kind of like a ridiculous thing that it's the only use for Roman numerals in current society.
Yet they stick to it.
Like, is there going to be a point where they just give up on that?
Oh, yeah.
The Super Bowl?
Well, probably not the Super Bowl.
The Super Bowl will always keep going.
Yeah.
There will be flags.
There's an L in there. That keep going. Yeah. There'll be flags. There's an L in there.
That's right.
Yeah.
All right, back to you.
I think the Super Bowl gives up on the Roman numerals.
At some point, they have to.
Yep, there's the hat removal.
It's going to be too complicated.
Came a little later than normal.
Yeah.
I like that hat, though.
It's a nice hat.
So, we didn't really watch the commercials because we were doing, you know, destroying, doing a Super Bowl stream.
And so I went through all of them this morning and brought out some of my favorites and some that I thought you would like or be annoyed by.
Let's start with this.
Pickleball?
It's basically tennis for babies.
Are you annoyed by this?
For adults.
For a number of reasons
Okay, why?
Babies
Yeah, I just think that's such a cheap move
I like the E-Trade kids
They went away for a while
They're babies talking about investing
Somehow Grant Hill is here
Yes, there's odd cameos throughout these Super Bowl commercials
They don't really introduce him as Grant Hill Yes, there's odd cameos throughout these Super Bowl commercials.
They don't really introduce him as Grant Hill.
Thanks for coming to our clinic.
But Baby's talking.
I remember the first one 20 years ago or whatever,
and it was like, oh, my God.
And then the next year it was like an animal talking,
and you're like, oh, what's going on here?
I think it's a bad bit.
I think it's cheap.
I think it's like a fart drop.
Doesn't take a lot to pull off.
And then obviously just the penetration of pickleball to current society is not something that I'm all that on board with.
So, yeah.
I did not like that one.
Coors Light, is it thought of as the cool beer?
It probably depends on who you ask and what part of the country you're in.
Because you have your Budweiser, and they're very...
Iconic.
Anyone want a Coors Light?
Yeah, but this is like badass.
Budweiser seems to be, yes, the old school.
They carry themselves with a lot of dignity.
And Coors Light is acting like they're the...
Oh, shoot, I forgot to play the song.
Somehow LL Cool J involves.
Right, and nobody knows who he is, so you have to say thanks LL Cool J.
I don't know the last thing he's done.
That's not, dude.
That's because you're out of
network television.
Oh, he's on a show.
Like CSI or something.
He was on it for a long time,
which probably was watched by 18 million
people a week.
Okay.
Yeah, so here's the thing.
The Harold and Kumar extreme guys.
That's what I picture when I think busts do that.
But the difference, though, is,
and this is probably a little bit too much beer industry minutiae,
you're thinking of Budweiser, not Bud Light.
Bud Light will also do wacky commercials.
Oh, okay. Budweiser,
when they're just advertising Anheuser-Busch
and Budweiser, the
legacy brand, that's when you get
Clydesdales.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's the one they had.
But I'm pretty sure every
light beer is trying to be
the extreme Harold and Kumar guys.
Trying to kick ass?
In some way, shape, or form, yeah.
Okay, T-Mobile says—
And sometimes they just hire a trans person and have a former 90s rock star shoot all their product with an assault rifle.
Yeah, well, that works too, right?
And sometimes they hire Shane.
Yeah, well, that works too, right?
And sometimes they hire Shane.
T-Mobile says the guys were scrubbed from Scrubs, but as you'll see... Boy, these guys are perennial players now.
You see Jason Momoa here, but also...
Sorry, party's canceled.
Do you remember what we were talking about on the stream?
No.
While we were liquored up watching this.
Do you remember, Blake?
Give me a sec.
Think of Jason Momoa and how big he is.
Yes.
The subject matter was you don't want to date a girl after Jason Momoa dates her.
Yeah.
And I think that.
Because she won't know you're in.
Yeah, I would stand. Yeah. And I think that... Because she won't know you're in. Geez.
Yeah, I would stand by that.
And yeah.
Again, to reference Shane.
Now, who's this guy?
Who?
Who's the Scrubs guy?
What's his...
It's both of them.
It's both of them, yeah.
Is Jason Momoa's on Scrubs?
No, no, no, no, no.
No, who's the other guy?
The white Scrubs guy?
It's the two guys from Scrubs.
What's his name?
I don't know. Yeah, what's up? Zach Braff white Scrubs guy. It's the two guys from Scrubs. What's his name? I don't know.
Yeah, what's up?
Zach Braff.
Zach Braff.
Okay.
Garden State.
I'll date his woman.
Yeah, no problem.
After him.
Yeah, no problem.
That commercial sucked.
You know what?
Do you remember what they did last year?
To reference a topic that came up when our guests were here on Tuesday?
They did Grease with Travolta.
Oh, okay.
Do you recall that?
I don't remember it at all.
I thought that was the Saturday Night Fever one.
No.
Well, I don't think so.
I'm pretty sure.
Or that was earlier this year.
I don't know.
Yeah, yeah.
But they're like basically living off of a Super Bowl commercial every year now.
Verizon?
Not to say that they don't still probably do some sort of character acting or something like that.
But I haven't seen Zach Braff in a movie in a long time.
But they were friends on the show and they've now been able to parlay that into people recognize us together.
It's very like Farley and Spade almost.
Where it's like if you see both of us together, you feel good about it.
Zach Braff, Garden State?
Yeah.
I said that a minute ago.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Overrated.
Highly.
That's all I heard about for like a year.
Oh, you got to see Garden State.
The thing is, man, there was a time, and I was in the era,
where if you wanted to get a handy...
Tell her you love Garden State?
You just had to watch it.
That's worth that, probably.
Yeah, I would say it was right on the line.
I'll say anything.
So this is BMW...
It's better than going to church.
Let's go to BMW.
This one is just a...
Nice ride.
It's the real deal.
I enjoyed it.
It's not great.
It's the real deal.
Everybody Christopher Walken meets imitates him.
Which probably is...
Not that far off. Everybody Christopher Walken meets imitates him. Which probably is. Enjoy your coffee.
Not that far off.
Your dog's so cute.
So adorable.
Wow.
It's kind of a guy you think.
Everyone thinks you could do a decent Arnold Schwarzenegger imitation. There's five of them or so.
Harry Carey.
Arnold Walken, Trump.
And then the odd Usher.
The Usher.
Of course, because Usher has a song called Yeah.
There's only one Christopher Walken and only one ultimate driving machine.
I now present to you the Dumb Zone Award for
Worst Commercial During the Super Bowl.
Hit the Google AI.
For many people with blindness or low vision...
By the way, is this guy doing a walk-in?
...an easy way to capture daily life.
One face crop.
Move your phone down.
One face in pain.
I just thought it was a bad commercial.
Why did I think that?
I don't know.
But, um...
Dinner for one.
Let's see.
Did I write any notes on that one?
One face and one head in frame.
Look who's here.
I just wonder...
Okay, now, we got a buddy who could use this.
Blind Josh.
Yeah?
Two faces.
Good morning.
Two faces.
How many people are really needing this?
Why did he have to sit that close at the football game?
All right.
How many people need...
Stevie Wonder courtside.
Two faces.
It just feels like we're...
This is really narrow casting.
We could do this better in another forum,
and it could save a lot of money.
Hold for photo.
Yeah.
Capture life. So I think they're... of money. Hold for photo. Yeah.
So I think they're... Or,
instead of worse commercial...
You wanted to see him like blurrily humping his...
You know what I think I read?
I read my notepad.
Now you're in there. Now it's in there.
One behind in frame.
Now it's in there.
One behind in frame.
I actually read my notes wrong. They did skip an important step.
Behind.
I was going to say.
You put it in her behind.
Yeah.
Whoa.
That's not how that happens.
No.
I read my notes wrong, though.
It's the wokest commercial.
Wokest commercial.
Not worst.
Because it's for a blind guy, and then the blind guy is married to a black girl and it's like oh like oh okay i get it yeah
yeah um i'm on board with you google you know it's interesting because uh i want to fire my
gun at that camera i feel like what google's doing there although you're right about the narrow casting
what they're doing is just trying to show you how impressive their technology is and how it could be applied in all walks of life.
I would say supreme narrowcasting would be radio ads that are just for blind people.
Yeah.
That ran a lot and didn't really provide you with any...
Did we run a lot of those in the day?
It was nonstop.
It's just too woke for me.
And it wasn't, at least with Google,
like they're selling the idea that we could do this
and help you in other places.
This medication or whatever it was,
was just for blind people.
It's not like it could also help you with cloud computing.
I don't know, though.
Don't you think blind people probably listen to the radio more?
That is true. In general, yeah.
I had a good...
I would call him a friend.
Ned.
Who listened to a lot of radio?
Oh yeah. Like they certainly would listen to
the games more than watch them. Well, he would call
me,
and a lot of people know this story,
but he would call me, I was the board
op for the Stars games, and he would call me at the end of every game, could be game
one, could be game 82, and say, did the Stars make the playoffs? And he's like, I listen
to every game. I'm like, there's a lot of season left.
Yeah, then you should know, dude.
You would think.
Yeah.
left. Yeah, then you should know, dude. You would think. Yeah. And then TC and I went and saw him at a place for blind people in Fort Worth, which was both heartwarming and, I feel like I said
heartwarming, like a heartworm. It made me feel good, but also I felt bad about the fact that the
second I walked out of the place, I started laughing uncontrollably about the fact that the second I walked out of the place,
I started laughing uncontrollably about the idea that we just watched 20 blind people
try to feed themselves in a cafeteria.
It goes about like you think it would.
It's a mess.
It's a bit of a mess, but they were all super, super nice,
and were like, hey, do you want to, you know, I don't know.
It was really cool, but it was also like things padded and like you walk in everything.
Yeah.
And he had like five radios in his room.
Did you like move some furniture?
Yeah, pull the chair.
It was cool.
But yes, they do listen to quite a bit of radio in my experience.
Okay.
Now this I was telling you about during the commercial.
You hadn't heard about this, but it was Uber Eats.
So this is the one that did not air during the Super Bowl.
See if you can pick out what was complained about in this commercial
and what was actually deleted for the one that aired in the Super Bowl.
This is Uber Eats.
I didn't know you could get Bowl. This is Uber Eats.
There's Jennifer Aniston.
Is that a Spice Girl?
It's Ross.
Rachel doesn't remember him.
There's Jelly Roll.
They're not wearing pants. Eating peanut allergy. Peanuts and peanut butter? It's not coming up! Oh, it's the primary ingredient.
It has worked together for ten years.
Ten years?
Yeah.
You were great.
You still don't know, do you?
I don't.
Okay.
Do you remember when I told you the deleted scene?
It had something to do with Ross and Rachel.
I hope I get to play a halftime show someday, man.
No, think woke.
Be woke.
Put on your woke hat.
No pants in the office.
That doesn't seem like that's that.
No, something we can't joke about.
Well, you guys were wasted on something.
Peanut allergies.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The peanut council or whatever is like. I remembered Uber Eats has office supplies,
but I feel like I forgot something.
Yeah.
Yeah, so you said.
Okay, yeah.
You're jogging my memory a little bit.
Oh, is that?
Yeah.
So, yeah, that was complained about by National Peanut something.
For making fun of it?
Yeah, and that's just not a joke.
That's not something to joke about.
People actually die.
And I swear to God, though, I read the story.
It was like 13 people, 13 Americans die annually from penile.
Yeah.
Sharks are.
That doesn't seem like.
Yeah, it seems like.
Now we can't joke about lightning. I don't know if this was like a thing whenever you were, whenever your kids were my kids' ages, but they remind you about it quite a bit.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, and I don't care.
I'd never even heard of it.
You cannot bring any food to school.
When you were a kid?
No, I didn't know anybody.
Right, me neither.
And I'm not making light of it.
I think there's probably reasons why.
Maybe some kids before just were undiagnosed.
I feel like every time we talk about this, we get a dissertation on it um but yeah i they're pretty hardcore about it yeah it's not
something i'd ever heard of and i also don't think that uh had that commercial remain unedited that
more people would have died um this well it's because you mock it it's because you mock it. It's because you mock it. This commercial was voted number one from the downstairs party.
Okay.
I'm going to give you the final two will be number one in this house.
So downstairs, this was the number one commercial.
I'm Michael Cera.
I'm human skin.
This was good.
Which is why I developed this.
CeraVe.
You didn't know?
Can skin truly be this moisturized?
Yeah. So there's a skin cream called CeraVe?
Yeah.
Let my cream hydrate.
I'm a user.
He's so good.
CeraVe.
Developed with Michael CeraVe.
We like?
So my name is Cera.
And so it's a perfect crossover opportunity.
He grows the perfect Michael Cera beard, too.
He's just such an encapsulation of Michael Cera.
He's very good at being Michael Cera.
Yes.
That's one of those where I really want to just dap up the creative that thought,
why has nobody thought about this?
We're Sarah V.
Now, if you're Michael Cera, you're like, I'm holding out for a little more money.
It's a pretty big company, dude.
It's probably owned by, I don't know.
I'm just saying.
Who else are you going to get?
One of the staff companies, Johnson & Johnson.
Yeah, yeah.
What's your other idea for your Super Bowl commercial?
Sarah Palin.
Right.
Some that I didn't play play or I'll just mention
I thought it was
interesting
the homes.com one
only because
they have Jeff Goldblum
at the end
for like a
two second cameo
and I know you love
you some Goldblum
oh yeah
and I'm just wondering
is there a pay scale
like obviously
Jeff Goldblum's
gonna cost a lot
right
but he's not
the whole ad
but if I only put him
in for two seconds
yeah
do I get a discount on Goldblum?
Probably, yeah.
Like how much of your time are we taking?
You know I'm fascinated by what people make.
Yeah.
And obviously we can publicize athletes.
We can publicize what the commercials cost.
But what does each guy... I really want to know
what everybody gets paid
for the amount of time.
Like, what's Lil Wayne get paid?
Because he was in like 25 seconds
of a commercial.
Yeah.
Compared to Goldblum for two seconds.
And then finally...
Well, Sam did tell us
that when he has music in commercials,
it is based on the time.
Yeah, how long it runs.
So maybe it is scaled.
Or TV shows.
Yeah. Yeah. Maybe by... Yeah. Yeah. How long it runs. So maybe it is scaled. Or TV shows. Yeah.
Yeah.
Maybe by,
yeah.
Interesting.
So let me give you
voted number one by me
after I watched them
all this morning.
And I think this is
pretty,
when I'm reading about it,
it's,
everybody kind of likes it.
Let's give you the
Dunkin' Donuts commercial.
I don't think you should do this.
She came to my work.
Somehow Jack Harlow's here.
He's here.
I'm going to have to flex on the track.
What up, folks?
For your consideration, here comes the Boston Massacre.
The Dunk Kings.
Touchdown, Tommy, on them keys.
Play a coach.
Got it.
I'm open.
And need no introduction, my partner!
Sometimes it's really hard to be your friend.
You said you were gonna support me.
Dump Kings!
Don't, don't go right in my heart.
Why you dunking me, girl?
Why you dunking me?
Dump Kings!
My heart.
How do you like them donuts?
I'm so sorry.
You had to see it, but I forgive you.
Lay us on the track. Are we gonna be on the album? I'm so sorry. You can't see it, but I forgive you. Lay us on the track.
Are we going to be on the album?
We talked about this.
Let's go.
You're blinded by them pinstripes.
Wrap it up.
Here goes Babe Ruth.
Tom, you can stay.
You remember when I told you I'd do anything for you?
This is anything.
Chill.
They're naming a drink after us.
Yeah, there was a lot going on there. Have you seen the four and a half minute? Of course. Okay, it's great. Chill. They name it a drink after us. Yeah. There was a lot going on there.
Have you seen the four and a half minute?
Of course. Okay, it's great.
It's almost
like a little short film.
Randomly, they've got Fat Joe there.
I assume because of the
Bronx connection with Jennifer Lopez.
They're both from the Bronx.
Of course you knew that, Dan.
I thought they just both left Atlantic.
I don't know.
She might have been at some point.
But then you've got Touchdown Tommy.
You've got – I mean that's – how much did that cost?
That's a great commercial though.
It is a great commercial.
I mean I feel like it's getting the big buzz for –
Yeah.
Really that or Sarah I think have been universally thought of
as the best two and that yeah once you
then release the four-minute thing after
the Super Bowl it's like get that social
impressions yeah I don't know if people
talk enough about how weird the life and
career of Ben Affleck has been like he's
been to rehab a couple times and he's like oh yeah you never seen that photo of uh
is that him the cigarette sad beaten guy oh yeah that's the rehab okay no no no that's just him
that's dealing with life that's a thursday yeah okay no he's memed all over the place oh yeah
there was uh there's a photo of him i'm I'm pretty sure Jennifer Garner is either taking him to or picking him up from treatment.
Oh, yeah.
And they're in a jack-in-a-box drive-thru where he is clearly just like way out of it.
And it's like noon.
And now he's like all ripped again.
And he's best friends with Matt Damon.
And now he's remarried to Jennifer Lopez 20 years later.
Didn't he win an Oscar when he was like 25 or something?
Yeah. And I mean, he's made some incredible stuff.
Wasn't he on your Kimspin list because he, didn't he dump Jennifer Garner as soon as he
got out of rehab? Yes. And she like took him there.
It's kind of a Delaney situation, you know, like someone supports you long enough for you to get
into treatment. And then you're like, you know what?
I realized while I was in here, I hate you.
Well, they probably tell you you got to make a lot of changes
when you get out of here.
Sure.
You don't want to get the same old habits.
But, yeah, you know, from that to being hammered on the Armageddon commentary.
Did you get the how do you like them donuts line, Blake?
Yeah, how do you like them apples
Okay
Didn't know if you're
Familiar with that movie
I
I don't think I've ever seen it
But I'm aware of the reference
Okay
That's like my kids
They've never seen a movie
They just
They've seen clips
They saw a TikTok
Right
Yeah I saw it on
I saw two segments of it
On TBS one time
That's probably it
Jeez
Yeah Well That's probably it. Jeez.
Yeah.
Well, that's the way it is.
Okay, let's slide into then webcast highlights.
What do we call it, a webcast, a stream?
What do we do Sunday?
A stream.
Okay.
Uh-oh.
What?
I'm just bracing.
No, you're good in this.
And by the way, I will play this if you want to say...
Mark a little timey.
Not only marking the times, but we might say right now,
things after this moment will be a little NSFW.
Just because... Yeah. If you're playing this in the car with your kids or something,
maybe you want to rethink that,
or maybe you want to just quit being a pussy.
We start with a montage.
So we did a web stream.
You could see us on WWE.
Wait, it's YouTube.
Dumb Zone.
You could search the Dumb Zone on YouTube.
And our live stream, it should be right up there.
But our Super Bowl stream,
this is a montage put together by Video Man of some of the fun moments.
Oops.
No full camera shot.
What the fuck?
Hold on.
Hold on.
I better lock that away.
Is there anywhere safe I can do it?
Or is there a...
Oh.
A1.
How did he get your laugh?
No.
A1.
Our next two guests on the Jenna Ryan show,
it's Jake Camp.
It's A1.
Mustachioed.
That might be who you're looking for, Dan.
Mustachioed lover.
Oh!
Fuck everybody!
Fuck everybody!
Fuck everybody!
That's why you put it!
That's why you put it!
You're a damn bull.
Yeah, baby!
Wow!
I think I should start drinking more.
No, don't.
You should.
Absolutely, Dan.
I haven't been drinking enough.
Look how much fun you're having. Damn. Don't. You should. Absolutely, Dan. I have been drinking enough. Look how much fun you're having.
Damn.
Don't, don't.
I can't hear this shit.
Yeah.
You know what?
We're going to start doing live spots just for drinking again.
Got Louise back there.
Ooh, she touched her boob.
She's touching boob.
Make sure to get Brittany.
Hey, everybody.
Look, it's VJ Boyd.
No shit.
Are you serious?
VJ.
VJ.
VJ. VJ. VJ. VJ. VJ. No shit, are you serious? BJ! BJ! BJ! BJ! BJ!
BJ! BJ!
Are you going downstairs?
Bring one chip with a bunch of cake on it.
Pussy! Pussy! Pussy!
Pussy! Pussy! Pussy!
This is stupid.
Oh!
Here we go!
That's the best ever! She's won it, bitch.
Get fucking Taylor Swift.
She's cussing.
She's cussing.
Holy shit.
Holy shit.
Holy shit.
Does Purdy have three seconds left?
Hang on.
That was great.
Tons of big fights available left.
That was fun. Yeah, how did Austin Guttery end up in your lap? I don't even know. You didn of big fights available left. That was fun.
Yeah, how did Austin Guttery end up in your lap?
I don't even know.
You didn't even seem to care.
You're just petting him.
Yeah.
He's our editor emeritus.
Once the drinking got going, the chants.
Oh, yeah.
We would just chant for anything.
Yeah.
So, okay, let's go out of order here, the cuss montage,
just since we're kind of in that mode. So, okay, let's go out of order here, the cuss montage,
just since we're kind of in that mode.
So when Cash and Mike Soroy were here,
and Cash had a prop bet on if Taylor Swift was caught cussing on camera during the game.
So, I don't know, there's all these caveats on it.
Well, it's just because that was like a big story
the last couple times she was on camera. So anytime it's just because that was like a big story the last couple times
she was on camera.
So anytime she did appear,
he started yelling.
And as you'll find out here,
this is about a 50-second clip,
and she wasn't on that.
They only showed her
for about 50 seconds
of all the clips.
But then, so anytime,
this is just a montage of that.
Say shit.
Say holy shit.
Cuss.
Cuss. Cuss.
Cuss.
Please.
Please cuss.
Oh, I need her to cuss.
Now, who was that lady?
How many prop bets do you have?
Who is that?
It looked like Tori Kelly.
That's a real bet?
If she cusses?
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
Who's that pretty lady?
Oh, I need her to cuss.
I need her to cuss.
Ah!
MVP! MVP!
MVP!
One more play.
Say fuck, say fuck. Say fuck.
Say fuck.
Ah!
Here, give me your phone.
Tack it on.
Tack it on.
That's what I'm saying.
They got to score on this play.
What if she mouths the word midget?
That's a curse.
That's a curse. That's a curse.
How do we handle that?
We got the kill. We're doing it.
We're doing the fucking Kelsey game winner.
Oh my God.
Cuss. Cuss. Cuss.
Holy shit.
So ridiculous.
Room of morons. Alright, like I said, this is all It's so ridiculous.
Room of morons.
All right, like I said, this is all very NSFW.
This next clip is as well.
So this is why Jake didn't want to play this.
This is what it's like to watch a game with Jake.
He eats it.
Get off the field, fucker. He eats it.
Vinovich, you fuck.
He's short.
He's short. He's short.
Fuck you, bitch.
That's a...
Flag him. Flag him.
That was a goddamn flag.
You got time. You got time to do it again.
But you know that's fucking DPI!
BJ's fucking up there.
No!
What the fuck?
That's right, bit of it.
I think they're your phone.
Rachel forgot who Ross was.
Throw the goddamn flag!
Is this how you watch Cowboys games, dude?
Yeah.
No, it's much worse.
Oh, worse.
Way worse.
Have you ever been told you have anger issues?
This is how he lets it out.
Yeah, I mean, I really don't, to be honest with you,
but football gets me pretty...
You look pretty intense there, man.
Yeah, the phone throw.
I don't even know you.
And it also kind of applies to the Mavs, as Blake has seen.
Yeah, game 71.
Yeah, but for the most part, that's my outlet, as Blake said.
Well, on the other side of the spectrum,
when watching a game with Mike Soroy,
it's just kind of like really fun and funny.
Well, here's a little montage of Mike Soroy.
You have left and right socks on,
but they're on
I know.
What a good catch.
I know.
Is this some non?
No, no, no.
It bothers me.
And is this the R?
Yeah, for right.
I'm sorry.
I wanted to see them
beauties for a long
time anyway.
Why don't you pop
them socks off,
Jake?
OK, Mike.
That's my halftime
show.
I'm going to go get drink one.
I don't know that I do.
Ooh.
We're just going to jam.
You got a Zima downstairs?
I'll travel the world at the sight and see.
I'm looking for something.
Something I want to use you.
How you doing?
Welcome to the thing that's going on.
Thanks.
Is this Mike or the other Saroy?
Yes.
My name is...
It's a little truck.
It's a little truck.

To be clear, I have watched a game with him where he was pretty out of control in an anger standpoint.
He just doesn't do it for...
A Dolphins game?
Dolphins game.
I've seen Cash and Mav situations where he takes it pretty personally.
But the difference is just...
I mean,
if you have a good friend trying to win back-to-back Super Bowls.
Yes, Patty.
Yeah, Patty.
Then, you know, it cuts a little close to home at times.
Okay, and our final clip will be – we can or can't watch the whole thing.
This is nearly two minutes, but it's just something I had never heard of before,
but I had a lot of fun with it.
Let's play that.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Dan, have we ever told you about Cash's idea for NFL offense?
Go ahead.
That there would just be a team that would run an entire offense
that's just flea flicker based.
So how does that go?
What are they going to do next?
Well, you don't know when they're going to do it.
Sometimes it's just a run.
Yeah, sometimes it's just a run.
But if they run the flea flicker 12 times a game,
you're constantly backing off.
Is this the time?
Are they going to do it? You're constantly backing off as a run the time? Are they going to do it?
You're constantly
backing off as a
run defense because
you're worried that
they're going to
pitch it back and
throw it.
Can you ever drop
back and not?
Oh yeah, of course.
You're just saying
at least like five
times a game you're
going to flip it.
No, no, more than
that.
Way more than that.
Five times?
A couple times every series.
80% of the offensive plays are flea flicker based.
Okay.
They could be a flea flicker.
Okay, that play.
That fits into the model.
Anything is possible at any time.
You're doing flea flicker end arounds.
Yes.
It's always in the cards.
It's not a trick play.
No. The trick play a trick play. No.
The trick play is a regular run.
Yeah.
And does a regular.
A fake flea flicker would just be a run.
How would you even stop a regular run when the flea flicker is.
Okay.
I think that's enough, Rob.
You're paranoid.
I get the point, but I thought that was.
Yeah, no.
That conversation has taken place at 3 or 4 a.m.
Stone.
On vacation.
Wasted.
Multiple times.
That is such a great gift.
But yeah, Cash is like, all right, think about it.
And I'm like, about three minutes in, I'm like, oh, he's right.
That would work.
Well, a great job by video man for sure I thought a great job by all those are so much fun we're trying to figure out our act and I think
one of the things is we're definitely going to keep doing those next year for sure we got to
figure figure out a way to do it before then, though.
We have to do, yeah.
Mavs playoffs, if there's a big Mavs playoffs game or something like that.
And it probably won't have the juice of a Cowboy playoff game or a Super Bowl,
but we've got to do something.
Or do we just do a –
Pickleball World Finals.
Do we do, like, just a, you know, well,
you could think of what sponsor you'd like to sell this to,
but I don't know, just a Tito's Saturday night.
Yeah, that would be an option.
You know, just have a...
You're probably stocked with booze for the next year.
Oh, my gosh.
Have a, you know, I think somebody...
Grab a couple of those and take them with me.
Somebody suggested maybe we get Quaker City Nighthawks up here
and we just play up here and...
They would do that.
And we just have a little mini stream
and just, you know, do we Twitch?
Do we
just YouTube? I don't know.
I feel like you're saying the options are unlimited.
Would I be correct?
Fairly, yeah.
That's just the way we are right now.
Okay.
So,
I actually have one more clip
To play for you
Okay
He's reminding me of that
And
To
To play that clip
Or to talk about that clip
Joining us now
To celebrate her birthday tomorrow
You're not going to be here
It's Jenna Ryan
Is joining us now
What?
Jenna Ryan
You may know her from...
Oh, this will go well.
And Jake is not going
to be here tomorrow.
And so we were going to call you
and pop you on tomorrow.
But like,
I know you had...
You thought,
amongst all of us,
who's the cutest one here?
That's Jake. Jake, yes. Yeah, clearly Jake. saw all of us who's the cutest one here that's jake jake yeah yeah clearly jake yes i blush it so you may know jenna ryan from her uh well your news cycle what was it about last year around this
time you're hot and heavy in the news i i was it last year was Was it the year before? I don't know, man. It was 2021.
Okay.
When you were released from prison.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, I didn't do a lot of media at that point.
I just turned it all off because that was just a really scary part.
But I did come on y'all's show when I was released from prison.
Right.
Y'all were the only one I did, really.
Really?
Yeah.
Was it because of Jake?
Jesus.
How cute he was.
I said yes, no.
Right.
No, no.
That's the only reason I'm doing this.
Jeez.
You don't know the self-esteem boost you gave him, by the way.
That's what I'm here for.
Yeah.
That's what I'm here for.
I appreciate it.
Okay, I just wanted to play.
We did a Super Bowl stream the other day, Jenna.
You know when we did it?
Oh.
What?
No.
Do you know when we did it?
No.
During the Super Bowl.
Yep.
That's a key.
It's comedy.
All right, you better shut up.
Let me play one clip.
Can Jenna see it if we play the clip?
Okay, from our Super Bowl stream.
I brought you this. This was going to be thrown away. Oh, my God. Let me play one clip. Can Jenna see it if we play the clip? Okay, from our Super Bowl stream.
I brought you this.
This was going to be thrown away.
Oh, my God. What?
Yes.
That's mine.
That's incredible.
Jenna Ryan had a show at Iron.
I don't know anything.
Okay, you can stop it, Rob.
I don't want to know what y'all said after that.
No, no, no, no, no.
It's all good.
All good things.
Okay, good.
Thank you.
Yes, I miss doing that show.
Yeah, so what was that?
So iHeart hired you?
Is this right out of prison, in prison?
Where are you during this?
So prison was one thing.
I have a lot of things.
But what happened was I had a radio show for
three and a half years on I heart media and they really made it very easy for me to do. They didn't
pay me, but I was ready to be paid any minute. Um, they didn't pay me. I probably paid just a
tiny bit to get on the, get on the channel cause they were really needing people. And I had a big
audience or, you know, a decent audience for the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex and I just loved doing shows and I got
a lot of practice in doing it okay and so I did it right there in that studio all right nice so
they didn't pay you I that's what was going to be my next question what was your enormous salary
yeah I paid like a100. Oh, okay.
Well, it's better than we're doing.
We're just paying lawyers.
Yeah.
I loved it. It was good for
business and good to get out there and great
experience. I miss it.
Hopefully, they'll
have me back someday.
Do you want this back? Yeah, we could get this back to you if you
want a piece of memorabilia.
Well, I've changed my
company to more
a different color because hot pink
I just kind of put that
to rest. And so now I'm more
blue. So y'all can keep that
as memorabilia. Historic
you know, crazy
stuff. Now
next January any plans? you know crazy stuff now uh next january
any plans any plans for january for uh i don't know like trips to like
the east coast somewhere yeah maybe our nation's capital or you know
no no we do we're not we're not doing again. We are never going to that location ever again.
And no.
Okay.
Keep me far from there.
Yeah, just kind of chilling out.
Really trying to focus on, you know, selling houses.
I would like to do something else in the media.
Something, you know, more positive.
Because there's a lot more to me than those crazy videos
okay we have we like them though there's fun you know y'all have fun with my my image over there
yeah yeah yeah it's you know whatever so yeah is there any like storming the capital type tie-in
with your name of your business or no oh yeah let's think about that no i wish i had
something more you know i what i do you do real estate right i'm in real estate i sell real estate
it's called first place real estate i'm getting some really good listings um i have a very large
enormous lawsuit um going on right now in federal court against a certain humongous billion dollar company.
And I'm having to do all this litigation. I'm representing myself. Plus, I have an attorney
and it's pretty crazy, but it's actually moving forward just to kind of deal with some of the
crap I dealt with. And so that's going on. And then I'm selling houses and I'm getting it starting to get a lot of people who have the same belief system as me will hire me on their million dollar mansions or two million dollar mansions.
And then, you know, I sold a house recently to someone who had a Ukraine flag.
It doesn't really matter.
Everybody, the people that are on the liberal side.
OK. They know who I am. Huh? OK. No, I just find that funny on the liberal side they know who I am
I just find that funny
so if you have a Ukraine flag
usually you would not be on board with them
or what are we saying here
well I'm just saying that
are you calling for a ceasefire
both sides of the aisle
what I'm saying is
I have people that are liberal
and they will tell me
that, and I know they're liberal.
Dirty libs.
And they don't agree with anything I agree with or think.
And we love each other anyway, and I'm selling houses to them, and they know me from the
news.
Okay.
So they're like, oh, my gosh, it's Jenna Ryan.
And then the conservative people know me from being Jenna Ryan, and they're like, oh, my
gosh, it's Jenna Ryan.
So we have a happy, I'm doing okay.
What about in surreal estate?
Oh, yes, yes.
Yes.
That's free, Jenna.
There you go.
1776 real estate.
Yeah.
Okay, yeah, that one's a little more palatable probably.
J6 is overdone, right?
Yeah, you can't do that.
Yeah, well, I mean, technically technically j6 is really still going down
um i'm pretty much involved i'm pretty well involved with what's going on with all the um
the people yeah that are being thrown in prison like the middletons they just um recently got
convicted on all nine counts and they're facing 50 years of prison and they're facing 50 years of prison, and they're like as normal as night and day,
and they're, I mean, I'm not saying they're perfect, but anyway.
They're just taking a tour, right?
Yeah, they were just, well, they didn't even go in.
Yeah.
They didn't go in, but they're facing 50 years.
There's something called the 1512 that the D.C. is accusing people of,
and that's like a 30-year
prison sentence and there's people getting some serious serious time and so mine was nothing mine
was just a flash in a pan and thank god i was you know i was in the wrong place at the wrong time but
if you look at the scope of things thank god i wasn't in those other places but now my heart just breaks for the i mean these people are 55 years old did you ever get to meet the guy with
the horns and the painted face yeah the shaman yeah hilarious i mean this guy is a shaman yeah
like of all people to be arrested for insurrection a shaman wow really i mean if you talk to him he is literally he's like
peace
and you know
the aura
and he's a shaman
that's so strange
were you in like a ladies prison
all ladies
I was
I was in
yeah
no I just want you to slow down
and tell us about it
okay
okay
we gotta do this
oh okay
anyway
Jenna Ryan
I wanted to thank you
for being here
and wish you a happy birthday yeah Anyway, Jenna Ryan, I wanted to thank you for being here and wish you a happy birthday.
Yeah.
The great Jenna Ryan is –
Happy birthday, Jenna.
What, 29 and holding?
What are we going with?
I'm 42 and holding.
Okay, we're up to that.
Yes.
All right.
Well, good luck to you, and if we have any other ideas, Jake, we'll throw them your way.
For sure.
For, you know, real estate names, whatever.
And if you find a cheaply priced, like, a studio where you could do radio recordings, like podcast recordings, we're interested.
Me too.
For real.
Y'all should have me on your show more often.
We can share.
Yeah, maybe we'll just split the studio cost.
Yeah.
Once you win that lawsuit.
Y'all need some estrogen on there.
Once you win that lawsuit, then we got something going.
I'm working on it.
Okay.
Have me on.
Well, thanks, Jenna Ryan.
Thank you for your time.
Thanks, y'all.
Have a blessed day.
All right.
Bye.
There she is.
What's wrong with you two?
We got to the bottom of where that came from.
The Jenna Ryan Show.
That's now rebranded to a blue color.
All I'm trying to think about is new names.
I know.
Isn't it fun?
Look, we're trying to give you a little gift on your way out the door.
Hey, thanks, guys.
I appreciate that.
You don't seem to be appreciative.
No, I do.
I certainly do.
I certainly do.
I just, you know, to me, it's just I can't believe you guys would platform.
Yeah, I don't even know what that means.
Isn't that what we got hit with last time?
Probably.
Yeah.
I'm just trying to have fun.
Trying to be a little...
Riot real estate.
Okay.
I'll come up with some more.
Yeah, work on that for the next, well, 366 days,
and we'll call her on her birthday again.
Okay.
Sounds good.
I'm going to be a Saturday.
We'll have to wait a couple years.
That's when we're doing our Saturday night stream.
Okay, we'll do it.
Yeah.
Man, I'm distracted now, because there's got to be a bunch of them out there okay anyways uh here's mahomes hungover on cnn on tuesday as he's uh the image is kind of funnier
to be honest with you should probably look it up if you haven't seen it uh but he's at disneyland
and they have like uh you know a little backdrop set up for him to do 10 minutes with CNN.
His eyes are barely open.
He's got two kids, probably been busting his ass all day.
He clearly has not slept at all.
Because the kids are not appreciative of him winning the Super Bowl.
Of course not.
Of course not.
And he gets asked an insane question
about Joe Biden, Travis Kelsey, and Taylor Swift.
One of the biggest storylines of the season
was off the field with Taylor Swift and Travis.
And I wonder for you,
as somebody who's been with this team,
who sounds like you keep your head down,
you play football,
what has the Swift effect been like for you personally and for the team?
Good question.
I think it's been cool, honestly.
It's been extremely cool to see the support that comes with the Swifties
and how they really embraced us and Chase Kingdom
and they kind of combined together.
I'm all about growing football, and Taylor's a great role model
of someone who does
as great at her profession and I'm glad that she loves football as much as everybody else now and
we brought a new fan base to the Chase Kingdom. Yeah I mean that new fan base probably involves
a lot of young girls. My daughter is two and a half. She was watching the game last night
having a blast and I know you have a young daughter too.
There's a two and a half year old who knows who Taylor Swift is.
That two and a half year old
was having a blast
because anything was on TV
and it was awake.
There was a flash of color.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like I heard my daughter say
Taylor Swift's name last week
for the first time.
She's five.
And she still doesn't really have any idea.
She just heard the word before.
Yeah, my daughter's really, you know,
she actually bought NFL Game Pass last night on her tablet.
Yeah.
Do you think that this is a good moment for little girls like your own
and maybe her friends and what they might be able to take out of football
as they get older?
100%.
What a terrible thing.
To be able to bring girls and their fathers together or whatever that is
and have those family moments that I had growing up, I think it's special.
It really is special.
And my daughter obviously loves football and loves watching it,
but I want other girls around the world or whoever to really watch it with
their family and watch football and really see how great this sport is.
He's trying to be a nice guy.
He's trying to be a nice guy, but he's also like,
just get me out of here.
You know, my daughter's two and a half,
and she couldn't believe that Shanahan chose to take the ball in uh overtime yeah she's
yelling about the new rules i guess the pipe part wasn't in there but in any case you could just
tell he's like i don't know man i mean oh yeah yeah uh yes i think i saw a little clip where
she asked him yeah then she followed that those dumb questions with uh what do you think about
the conspiracy yeah biden rigged the Super Bowl?
Did Biden set it up?
He totally just pretty much deflected.
Yeah, yeah.
He didn't give much of an answer.
But he should have walked off like Dana White.
Was that staged?
Have you guys seen that viral video where somehow he's on a podcast of Howie Mandel?
Yeah.
Thought staged.
Howie Mandel is introducing him,
and then Dana White just got up and walked off.
Yeah, I don't know.
And it wasn't like a conflict.
He was telling him how great he was,
and then Dana White was like, I appreciate that,
but I can't tell you how sick of doing podcasts I am.
And he just gets up and walks off.
It's a really weird visual.
It feels like if it's staged, it's a good idea,
because it kind of went viral.
I didn't know Howie Mandel had a podcast.
Yeah, all of those things.
Okay, well, I'm going to play this as a palate cleanser.
And if it's staged, it's to say, don't invite me on your podcast.
Also true.
I'm going to play this just as a palate cleanser for me and Soroy's dynamic
of just being hammeronied during the Super Bowl.
I don't think either one of us can touch this.
You may remember that many years ago,
Jason Kelsey kind of won the Super Bowl parade
when the Eagles won their title.
He's wearing like a king,
he's wearing like a crown and like a king's robe.
So, Soroy's a full hand clapper.
Oh, yeah.
Or sing.
Yeah.
That's so ridiculous. He's wearing all white like he didn't want. So, Soroy's a full hand clapper. Oh, yeah. Or sing. Yeah.
That's so ridiculous.
He's wearing all white like he didn't want.
And, of course, we've seen – it's Miami.
Of course, we've seen Travis Kelsey and some of his parade appearances be pretty over the top.
But I'm not sure that I've ever heard anything like this.
No, no, no.
We ain't done yet.
There's one guy that's needed.
And his name is Big Daddy, Travis Kelsey!
This is
one of his teammates
introducing Travis.
Hold on. Cut that.
Cut that. Cut that.
I want everybody a part of this thing.
Oh, my God.
If you know this song, sing along.
Blamed it all on my roots.
I showed up in boots and ruined the Niners affair.
Okay.
The last one to know.
We were the last one to show. Okay.
Yeah, he's calling Mahomes up there. Took that glass of champagne. Pat took that glass of champagne.
I was calling my homes up there.
When I took and I toasted you.
Honey, we threw what I never.
What?
I got friends in low places. Get a pass for...
That is...
I don't know, man.
That's worse than bread hole.
I was going to say, very bread hole.
Bread hole is bad, but I feel like that's worse.
So that was yesterday, right?
Yeah.
So Mahomes went Vegas, Disneyland, back to KC for the parade.
Dude, that guy's got to be whipped.
Yeah.
And you have three drinks and you're done.
And I know that they've got a lot of help.
I'm still feeling it.
I know they've got a lot of help with the kids and stuff,
but I also think that we underestimate how much the sports wife is like,
well, it's off-season now, so tap in.
Obviously, again, you've got a chef.
I'm sure you have a nanny.
But they're like, now's my time. I'm sure you have a nanny, but they're like,
now's my time. I got a little girl's trip planned. Yeah. But yeah, similar, more severe than what
happened at the Rangers parade, but there was a shooting at the parade in Kansas City yesterday. One person dead. I believe at least 11 other people
shot. 22 people were injured, and some of that might have been from, well, it definitely was,
about half those people were from like the stampede that was caused by gunshots
and by gunfire and a crowd of hundreds of thousands of people.
It almost just seems like he kind of, I mean, this is depressing,
but I've kind of been in this mode for a long time now,
and it makes people upset.
But I feel like it's actually an easier coping mechanism
than being like, something's got to change.
I just assume now.
That there's going to be a shooting at every big event?
Yeah, and probably once a month at a school.
So, I don't know.
It seems like those are your only two options.
Because obviously nothing's going to change.
So you have one of those two choices of being like,
this is just so sad, something has to change.
Okay, well, that path ends right there.
Or you can say, probably any anytime you get half a million Americans
or 50 to 100,000 Americans together in one place,
a few people are going to get shot.
Especially if it's like a celebratory thing
where alcohol is involved
and apparently this was born out of a fight.
In fact, between like two juveniles.
It just feels like it's going to happen.
Yeah, and for some reason, I'm a weirdo,
and I enjoy seeing when...
Yesterday, it was some nerdy sports guy I follow
who covers Cleveland sports,
like I knew him when I worked there.
And that's when he decided he's going to jump into the fray.
Of course.
And, you know, I'm going to give my opinion now on that this is bad.
Oh.
Whoa.
You're now.
And then just to look at the replies.
Just to look at the replies and, you know, a couple of amens and more of, yeah, well, would you rather live in Russia?
You know, just whatever.
Although Russia now, it's like a thing.
That's cool, I guess.
I don't know.
Yeah.
I'm confused about it all, but I'm almost watching it like I watched, sometimes would watch the kids growing up.
I watched, sometimes would watch the kids growing up.
Like I would do it detached.
As like I'm an analyst, a scientist.
I'm watching this and it's very interesting.
You do that, that seems real illogical and idiotic.
And so I'm just watching it as, like you said.
I'm not watching it and offering an opinion or jumping into the fray because it doesn't matter if I did.
Right.
So now I'm watching it just as a social experiment and wondering how does this all.
A sociologist.
How does this work in 50 years? How will somebody look back at all of this and try to analyze what's been going on?
It's fun.
It's definitely weird.
The woman who was killed in the shooting
was a radio DJ
in Kansas City, Lisa Lopez Galvin.
She was the host of a show called Taste of Tejano.
What?
What's her name?
No.
I'm just asking the name.
There's gotta be a line somewhere.
She's dead.
Oh, I didn't know that.
I thought you said she was shot.
She's the one person who was killed.
Like that would stop you.
The difference between critically wounded and already...
Under the guise of a mortician anyways the one thing i was gonna say is it is funny to me um and i probably say this too much
i'm not trying to like pander but i i do still listen to the ticket obviously every day and i
was listening to the musers talk about this this morning and they had
like a really good segment on,
you know,
crowds and parades.
And are we going to stop doing this?
And is it too much danger?
And I feel like everybody has to give this caveat.
And I think in this case it was junior.
Who's like,
uh,
you know,
it is the greatest country on earth,
but we have so many things that we need to address in a serious way.
Why does everybody feel the need to say it's the greatest country on earth?
Like, isn't it possible that it's...
Are we sure? Yeah.
Yeah, I mean...
Have you been to every country?
Does everybody just say that?
Or, like, you could just look at, like, some statistics.
Like, is Canada better?
I mean, I don't know, but it feels like you're obliged to say, or obligated, rather, to say now before you criticize anything.
And he's not doing anything that I haven't heard.
I've probably done it before.
Sure, no, I kind of think it.
But, you know, I mean...
Like, it's the greatest country, but could the health care be better?
Pretty have, like...
It's the greatest country.
Could the court system be better? We have a pretty... It's the greatest country. Could the election stuff be better? It's the greatest country. Could the court system be better?
It's the greatest country. Could the election
stuff be better? Pretty rough economic
inequality situation.
But it's the greatest.
I just think it's weird that everybody feels like they have
to say, but everybody
does. Right, left, center, whatever, has to say.
Before I say some things that I think
should be different, I just want everybody to know
I think this is the best place that's ever existed in the history of the world, and certainly
on the current.
You're probably trying to preempt the, well, then leave.
Well, then leave.
Yeah, for sure.
You don't like it?
Get out.
Well, then you can always throw the counter argument is, well, that's what makes it great,
the ability to debate and to freely blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Did you guys know that they'll give a C-section to an ape?
What?
The Fort Worth Zoo is celebrating the birth of a new baby gorilla.
Do apes do it?
Yeah, they have little surgical masks on.
Little coats.
They make them figure it out.
And then the funniest part about this
scene from the one in Fort Worth is
that the ape who had the C
section performed on her is now in crushing debt.
Yeah.
She's bankrupt. Bills just keep
coming to her enclosure. Look, this is
the greatest zoo in the world. It's the greatest zoo in the world, however.
Yeah.
This occurred last month at the
Fort Worth Zoo. They actually will do an emergency cesarean birth for a gorilla.
It was early.
Are all C-sections emergency?
No, I guess some are planned, right?
Yeah, because if you've had one.
Then you've got to go back to that?
I think so.
Because it's like after you have it, they just install a zipper.
It's a Velcro, I think.
Yeah, and they just can open it right up again.
Yeah.
I've seen it.
My wife had a C-section.
Yeah, we did it for the second one.
I was in there, baby.
Watching those intestines get pulled out.
Gross.
Put over on a little tray.
Did they let you make the first incision like they did for me?
They did not.
I was not asked that question.
And then the cool thing is you got to have a photographer there.
It's like when you're – actually, for us, they did it like when we cut the cake, the wedding cake.
We both put our hand on the knife or the scalpel, they call it.
And then, yes, we got to make the cut together.
It was great.
It was beautiful.
they call it.
And then, yes, we got to make the cut together.
It was great.
It was beautiful.
I do remember thinking, like, I was getting the vibe that the doctors in that particular room were like, why does he want to see this so bad?
You know, because they're like, guy's faint.
Yeah, I didn't want to see any of that.
And I was like, hey.
They were like, hey, you can stay up here.
And I was like, I'm not staying up here.
I was like, I'm heading right down to South America.
And our final bit of animal news,
and I suppose our last bit of news for the day is,
have you guys seen what happened with these Arlington coyote attacks?
I saw a headline.
Three kids involved
in biting incidents, which I suppose
just means they were bit.
Over the last couple days, they found
it this morning.
Around 7.30 a.m.
The coyote, and he is...
They're sure it's him? Yeah.
How?
Teeth mark? Yeah. How? Um...
Teeth-ma?
Whoa.
Excuse me.
But he also could be getting, you know...
I mean, look, it's the greatest park in Arlington,
but sometimes maybe they're just a system.
Right.
And I thought it was weird, too.
Like, the city of Arlington posted a photo of this terrified poor creature in the back of the truck they put him in.
Okay, not the squad car?
No, but it kind of looks like that, though.
It's all beaten.
They're going to kill him, right?
Probably.
He's already dead.
Yeah, the coyote will be humanely euthanized.
They don't let the kids get their retribution.
Or at least watch.
Stone him.
Like a...
Oh, now I feel for him.
Murder victims family.
Yeah, he looks...
Last meal.
He looks terrified.
No, he looks sad.
And you know what they're going to do, don't you?
They built that park on his land, you know?
Cut his head off.
Send it to Austin.
Says he will be transported to Texas Health and Human Services in Austin for rabies testing.
Yeah, I mean, it's sad because, and you see this particularly up in like the northern burbs.
And, you know, it kind of relates to what we were talking about the other day of like the metroplex stretching all the way to oklahoma city like those coyotes have to go they have to go somewhere and where they end up is your
neighborhood yeah and that was the bad thing about the pandemic was everyone was starting
to venture outdoors yeah and you're like realizing like oh my god yeah there's
starting to venture outdoors.
Yeah.
And you're like realizing like,
oh my God.
Yeah.
There's wild animals here. Blake just said that was the bad thing
about the pandemic.
There was a couple,
but that was probably,
that was the biggest one.
1.3 million American deaths.
Not destruction of the economy.
Now there's less traffic.
And that was a buying opportunity.
It wasn't bad for the economy.
Fair.
You're the finance guy here,
Dogeman.
Do you guys think you could take on like a 20-pound
coyote? And by take on
I mean, could you kill it before it killed you?
Like if you had to fight it to the death.
Like, so think about this, Dan.
You just saw my dog the other day. It weighs 80 pounds.
20 pounds, huh?
And then how high
up do you think you could go before...
Because Kip's like 10.
You could take Kip.
Coyote Kip?
20 pounds?
I mean, you're just kicking.
But it's going to bite your leg.
100%. And it also probably has a little bit of a
leaping ability.
I think I could do a 20-pounder.
Like, you'd have to just, like, probably crush its larynx, right?
Yeah.
I mean, I'll...
I'm not going to look good after it.
But the problem is, for you to kill it,
you're going to have to get so close to its mouth.
And what if, like, one of the times you miss and it just...
It's a vein.
Well, if I'm just kicking...
Okay, so I can't have a bat?
No, no, no, no.
No.
In fact, you're naked.
Okay, we're both naked.
Coyote's laughing at you.
Yeah.
He's like, really?
Can't believe it's that small.
Show her not a grower, huh?
Whatever it is.
He'd just walk away like, dude, you got enough balance here.
I feel bad for you.
Yeah, I think Dan could take a 20-pounder.
Yeah, I don't know, though.
I also react very poorly to any pain.
So, like, if he got me a little, then I'd just start crying.
I don't think I react poorly to pain, but I do react poorly
to blood.
Yet you're down there staring at your wife's innards.
What? I mean...
Not his. Not mine. Okay.
I'm fine.
Got a zen in.
There's your news.
Tweeting.
I can't believe that's all the news you got.
What the... We did cut into news time with Jen. I can't believe that's all the news you got. What the...
We did cut into news time with Jenna Ryan.
We did that.
That was like four stories.
I know, but tomorrow we might have to cover SportsMare.
You guys can do SportsMare tomorrow.
She's getting divorced.
You want to do it right now?
We can do it right now.
Cheat on her.
My one comment on that is... Yeah, give your comment
because you're going to be gone for the next three
weeks. You're not going to be back until
Wednesday. That's correct.
We'll do a show on next business
Wednesday. I think
it sucks that people's divorces have to be so
public. Like, obviously
the guy did whatever he did. Maybe she
did something. Maybe they were like
separated or something at the time.
And like just trying to explain that to the public to me.
Like I had a buddy, Blake.
Yeah.
And he got divorced.
And just like his family's in court and her family's there.
And she's got like his internet search history like given to her lawyer and a photo of a weed pipe.
She's like, he's a druggie.
That's Gromster divorced?
Yeah, right.
Those two things.
I don't know.
I feel like people should be able to handle stuff like that behind closed doors.
Well, you're so sensitive.
Close doors.
Well, you're so sensitive.
You're so worried about sports mayor.
Divorce.
Or are you worried about your search history being revealed someday?
Yeah.
Have we been going a long time?
I bet we have. It's been a very long time.
Yeah, we have.
So do your little birthdays.
What are we at?
Like 2.10.
Okay.
I'll get this over quick then.
It's Thursday, February 15th.
See, I knew we had a lot of stuff today,
but then you were going to be gone
and then we could get her on.
Jeez.
Are you upset about that?
No, I'm not.
I mean, I can tell you this.
Nobody's going to yell at us about it this time.
It's like when you ask your wife something.
Are you upset?
No, no, no.
It's fine.
I do think that it was the day I earned your trust, though.
Don't say anything else.
So it's Thursday, February 15th.
We are recording this live to tape from high atop my garage.
We're even on YouTube today if you're listening to the audio
and you want to go check us out on the tube.
YouTube.
On this day in 1798, there was a feud between two members of the U.S. House of Representatives.
A duel.
This feud boiled over as Roger Griswold of Connecticut used a cane to attack Vermont's Matthew Lyon. Okay, I was
thinking Burr. He defended
himself with a set of tongs.
What?
Just lying around? Well, I think they
were for fire.
Because I looked this up before and I was like
what are you
making quiche or something?
Why did you just...
I believe it's like a
two-pronged fire poker type thing.
That's the real deal.
Yeah, exactly.
Like, eats his plastic tongs.
Yeah.
So Griswold was upset
because the house did not expel Lyon.
Lyon, two weeks prior,
had spit tobacco juice in Griswold's face.
Damn.
And then he's like,
well, you gotta kick him out for that untoward behavior.
And they did not.
That's enough to get attacked with a cane.
Yeah.
I think.
That's bad.
On this day in 1856,
a ship departed from Africa for Indianola, Texas.
The ship was carrying 65 camels.
The U.S. military wanted to test using camels transporting supplies in the Texas heat.
Apparently, it didn't work out, or else we'd see tons of camels, wouldn't we?
It did not work out, and I believe there's a chance that a guest that we're having
next week who is a history professor has some insight on this i've read his writing on this
before we have a guest next week next friday oh the uh the book guy i don't know professor
animal fights he's great you're gonna love it to love it. Okay. I'm in.
On this day in 1879, President Rutherford... B.
B. Hayes signed a bill which allowed female attorneys to argue cases before the Supreme Court.
What year?
1879.
That's a lot earlier than I would have thought.
Like, you can't vote?
Yeah.
Right.
That's a lot earlier than I would have thought.
Like, you can't vote?
Yeah.
Right.
On this day in 1987, in Is Golf Too Soft News,
Craig Stadler disqualified from the Andy Williams Open when he knelt on a towel to make a shot.
Apparently that's against the rules.
So if you kneel without the towel?
Yes, then it's fine.
That's ridiculous.
But like you use something to stabilize it?
I don't know.
Again, golf.
That's ridiculous.
You guys should do some waste management stuff tomorrow.
I'm going to produce your show.
Okay.
Do you tune in?
I mean, I've seen all the clips of everybody acting like Shooter McGavin.
Yeah.
How am I supposed to putt?
How am I supposed to chip?
That's interesting that you would say that,
because we have today's birthday, you know, tomorrow's
birthday, as you already know one. Yeah.
But today, actor Christopher
McDonald is 69.
Is that him? Isn't that Shooter McGavin?
Wow.
From Happy Gilmore?
I think everybody knew.
Oh, well.
I'll bet you somebody listening did not.
You think there's somebody listening who didn't know that Shooter McGavin is from Happy Gilmore?
That's right.
There's a 0% chance.
Actually, because my two-and-a-half-year-old daughter listens.
Damn it.
Oh, he's in Greece?
He's had quite the wheels off existence.
I've been told by people who have run into him,
like in Vegas or wherever,
that, I mean, he's just doing shooter like all the time.
Is that him on Twitter?
I don't know if he actually runs that account or not.
It's a great account.
Because it feels like it is.
I want to believe it is.
Book him.
He goes really hard.
Or at least used to.
How?
And like if you ask him, he'll give you a little shooter.
That's great.
Current Maverick, Derek Jones Jr., 27.
Who's Derek Jones Sr.?
Do we know?
I had a neighbor named Derrick Jones growing up who got bit by his dog the first week they moved in.
Maybe it's him.
Probably.
Willie Gay is 26.
Chiefs linebacker.
He was passed out with a bottle of Hennessy next to him at the Chiefs parade.
Really?
Yeah.
Have you seen this picture?
I tried to find better, longer audio of it.
I saw a picture of someone.
I just thought that was a bit.
Dude, he is in the street, shirtless, laying down with a bottle of Hennessy.
That's great.
And there's a news reporter that runs up to him,
and she cuts it off after about 10 seconds, from what I could tell.
To protect him?
Yeah.
And their license. Okay. See tell. To protect him? Yeah. And their license.
Okay.
See the bottle next to him?
And he's just all effing ripped.
Yeah. Golly.
How come I can't be ripped and passed out?
He took his shoes off.
He did. I didn't catch that the first time.
He definitely has his shoes off.
Like they're not really by his feet.
No, but they're neatly placed
next to the bottle.
Former Ranger Ugeth
Urbina is 50.
Now, is he the guy with six
fingers and six toes?
El Popo.
I think we do this every year.
We do it for about three guys
every year.
He also served prison time,
much like one of our guests today.
Yeah.
But it was for murder, I think,
in South America somewhere.
That's how he got the farmer's drop.
Antonio Alfonsoca.
That's the six finger.
Yeah.
Matt Granig is 70.
Simpsons.
Megan the Stallion is 29.
And Larry Yount is 76.
Larry Yount is, of course, Robin's brother.
You know this story, Blake?
No.
It's a sad one.
Larry Yunt is the only Major League pitcher in history
to be credited with a pitching appearance without facing a batter.
So he was a prospect.
And he was brought up when rosters were expanded in September 1971.
They expected to get him his feet wet, and then he'll be a good player in the future.
Well, just during the warm-up pitches, he left.
He got injured, like he did some news arm.
And apparently, the rule is that if you are announced as being in the game,
you must face one batter except in the case of injury.
But if you were announced, you get credit for playing in the game,
even though you didn't face a batter.
So he actually has one appearance, but he never faced anyone.
And that's his whole...
He never came back.
He never played again.
Yeah, that injury ruined his career. but he never faced anyone. And that's his whole... He never came back? He never played again.
Yeah.
That injury ruined his career.
That's about the worst sports story I can imagine.
For real.
Like, you work your whole life to get... And he was a big top prospect.
He was at least, you know...
Really good.
For the story, let's say he was...
He was basically... The you know, really good. For the story, let's say he was basically the best prospect in 50 years.
And on the other hand, his brother is like a sure first ballot Hall of Famer.
He just has to watch that.
Yeah.
I wonder what it would be like to watch your much more lucky and successful.
Brother get hurt.
And we'll give you one dead.
We'll give you born on this day.
They're not alive anymore, but it is Chris Farley.
Tommy Boy.
If you want me to just tell people what they already know.
Yeah.
That might have been the first one that really, really messed me up.
And that doesn't, there haven't been many, you know.
But that one, that one affected me.
When he died?
Yeah, dude.
You ever seen Almost Heroes?
Or is it Last Heroes?
No.
I don't know what that is.
It's the last one he made with Matthew Perry.
What if he didn't die?
He got cleaned up.
He got ripped.
That would be tough.
He pulled a Drew Carey.
Jonah. Yeah, Jonah Hill. He got cleaned up. He got ripped. Like he did a... That'd be tough. Pulled a Drew Carey or a... Jonah.
Yeah, Jonah Hill.
Just like a Jonah Hill got skinny.
Yeah.
Is it better just to die while you're at the peak of being fat and funny?
Doing what he loved.
Right.
Tokes.
Speedball.
Yeah.
Yeah, he'd be touring now and he'd be asking for interviews and he'd be saying, I don't
know.
Casino in Oklahoma.
You'd have him in studio,
but then like,
you're like wondering when he's going to leave.
Yeah.
Like,
uh,
he ends up being as Brian Curtis would say,
a Tuesday guy on radio row.
Yeah.
Oh,
there's it's Farley again.
Yeah.
He's here for CBD.
Once again.
For CBD.
Once again.
And that was Today in History.
Would you like to offer closing remarks,
knowing that you're not going to be here until next Wednesday?
You know, not really, other than the fact that I haven't really thought about this,
because we're just going to, like, a resort.
As we talked about earlier,
typically we go somewhere and we want to, to like kind of get out in the streets
you know eat cheap two dollar food that the locals eat so i didn't really think about this but
this morning my wife was uh working on a will like an online will whoa
and i was like what's the deal?
I know we need to do this, but why now?
And she's like, well,
going to Mexico.
So now I'm worried. Now I'm like a little
bit worried, you know, because she knows way more
about what... I didn't have anything to do with this.
Like you think she's plotting your death?
I just think there's something.
She has a premonition? I don't know.
Something. Can I have the catition? I don't know. Something.
Can I have the cat if you guys die?
Absolutely.
My mom would not want the cat.
Are the kids going?
No.
Would Nora be upset if I took the cat?
Well, you have to take her, too.
Can I take Carter?
Yeah.
That would work well.
Okay.
Him and your boy would be...
Yeah.
They'd be fun together.
Can I euthanize the dog?
No, please don't.
You don't care, though.
You're dead.
I can do whatever.
It's got a torn ACL.
You don't want that.
Two.
I said I'm going to euthanize it.
That's what I'm saying.
Yeah, it adds to it.
Yeah.
You're actually doing the dog a favor.
I remember reading stories just a couple years ago about people that were in resort towns.
And like cartels were battling each other from like jet skis.
Like they were like zooming up to the beach and shooting at people.
And I've never been afraid of anywhere that I've traveled.
I've never, you know, I was in the middle of the desert and, you know, near the border of Yemen.
And I was just like yeah whatever and now i'm like old and have kids and my wife's making wills and i'm like i'm up you know you know my bad reason for
never having a will because then you would die because i thought yeah then i'm it's like i'm
the world would say okay you've you've planned got your affairs in order yeah and so my affairs are
not in order,
so I don't think that the universe will let me die
until that's the case.
