This is the best of the herd with Colin Cowherg on Fox Sports Radio. Ah, here we go on a Wednesday. We are packed live in Miami Beach. This is The Herd, wherever you may be and however you may be listening. We're on IHeart Radio, Fox Sports Radio, and FS1. Joy Taylor is joining me on a Wednesday as we ramp up for the Super Bowl broadcast on Fox on Sunday. And Joy, how are you?

I'm great. It's another beautiful sunny Miami day. Beautiful. Unbelievable. In a couple of minutes, I'm going to give you exclusive tape. Belichick and Tom Brady having it out over his contract. But we start. Look at those beautiful pictures.

Beautiful pictures. If you're listening to us on radio, go to FS1. What a week. Look at those views. So there should be a new rule for all of us. in the media. I can't control fans, but there's a new rule in the media. When it comes to the draft, NFL draft, NBA draft, we don't know. We have a lot of information. We think we know, but you never truly know. So Kyle Shanahan is the best young offensive football mind in the

National Football League. Everybody thought it was Sean McVeigh. We told you, no, it's Kyle Shanahan. dad's a Hall of Fame coach Kyle's going to be a Hall of Fame coach and he was talking this week about you know he watched Patrick Mahomes he saw the tape and they decided hey just not that great I didn't look into him obviously as much as I should have

I think it was I mean we definitely looked into him studied all his tape was just a freak could make any throw had the ability to do anything I thought it was a little bit different situation for us we had the second picking the draft did not feel like from all the intel you get and stuff that he was going to go that high.

Yeah, Kyle Shanahan wasn't sure with Patrick Mahomes. New rule. We have a lot of information, but we don't really know who's going to change leagues. Janus went 15th. Jimmy Butler 30th. Kawhi Leonard's the best guy in the league right now to get a bucket and make a stop. 15. The best back court in NBA history is.

Steph Curry and Clay Thompson. One guy went to Davidson. One guy went to Washington State. They didn't get the big offers. One went seventh in the draft. One went 11th. By the way, Tom Brady's six round. Russell Wilson third.

Joe Montana third. Lamar Jackson, end of the first round. Aaron Rogers and Dan Marino both plummeted in the first round. Kansas City, A, had no idea Mahomes was going to be this good. And B, Mahomes wouldn't be this good if he was in Cleveland.

because it'd be on his third head coach, they'd have a crappy offensive line, and he'd be getting banged up. The schematics wouldn't be as good. He wouldn't have been able to sit for a year. They would have rushed him into playing, and he would have been overwhelmed and probably lost some of that confidence he has today. If Kyle Shanahan watched tape of Patrick Mahomes and was like,

I could go either way on the guy, then we don't know. not only Bill Belichick and the dynasty in New England has done virtually everything right for 20 years, except they're not always great on drafting. They're not even great on drafting

in the first round or the second. Some of their better players have gone in the fifth, sixth, fourth, undrafted. So you just don't know. Now, the good news about Mahomes, he appreciates the fact that it's an inexact science, and I love that he understands how lucky he is.

I think I ended up in the perfect place. To have Coach Reed and these coaches around me, to have Alex Smith in front me for a year and be able to learn from him, and then obviously to have all the players that I have around me. I'm in a place where the team was already a winning team, a team that had a lot of success, and I came in, was able to just be who I am,

be who I am, and ended up being able to win a lot of football games earlier. in my career. By the way, he gets compared to Steph Curry. Never forget 2012. The Warriors had Monta Ellis and Steph Curry. They called Milwaukee. The Warriors wanted Andrew Bogot. Which one do you want? Thank God they took Monta Ellis. Or Steph Curry could have ended up in Milwaukee and never play with Clay and never have Steve Kerr and never have Draymond Green and never attract Kevin Durant. And Mahomes could be in Cleveland. He's a highlight reel. on his third coach and Steph Curry could be on Milwaukee and never be part of the greatest dynasty

in the last 15 years in the NBA. We just don't know. We think we do, and we have a lot of information. In my lifetime, there have been five guys, since I've been a sportscaster, five that had to go number one. LeBron and Shaq, Bryce Harper and baseball, Andrew Luck, and. And Tiger Woods, if golf had a draft, that's it. Those were the ones there were no questions. And you could say, well, I mean, Bryce Harper has it.

Bryce Harper's making, you know, $38 million a year. Bryce Harper is great. Shack, LeBron, Tiger Woods, if golf have a draft. And Andrew Luck. And Andrew Luck, for the record, won a lot of games. Didn't even have the right GM. Didn't have the right players. Didn't have the roster.

Didn't have the coach. but even the physical freaks Janus, you don't know. You just don't know. All right, so I saw this this morning. We have been very blessed in the last decade.

It was the decade of the dynasties. Yukon women's basketball, Alabama football, Golden State Warriors, New England Patriots, that I say Alabama football, I think I did. They're all ending. Bama didn't make it to the playoff. Yukon women haven't won a title in four years. New England looks kind of old.

And Golden State imploded. Kevin Durant left. Lots of injuries as Steph and Clay and Draymond get a little older. You know, I was thinking about that as the news came down this morning, that Dante Scarnackia, the best offensive line coach, probably in the history of the NFL is retiring. And I think it's a really, really big deal. and Tom's getting old and Dante's retiring and Gronk retired and now you've got young receivers coming in and Tom is older and less patient and I thought about this this week with the passing of Kobe Bryant

we just have to appreciate the great ones for 20 years all we are hearing on New England has been criticism but I watched Dana White take the UFC and turn it into a $4 billion brand. I just saw this morning Barstool Sports sold for a zillion dollars. I watched Kobe Bryant. Oh, he shoots too much. He's hard to play with him coach. I watched the New England Patriots.

The truth is to be a dynasty, you have to shut out a lot of that noise. Because to be a dynasty and to be great, you're taking stuff from other people who think they want it as much as you. So you've got to be sort of obsessed. You're taking shots. You're taking money. You're taking wins. You're taking players.

You're taking coaches. I've always said this about the New England dynasty. I can't believe it lasted this long. Honestly, I cannot believe the dynasty lasted so long. So when you read these stories about Brady and Belichick, and it's getting sort of prickly, and Tom wants some money, and Bill doesn't hand out money to pretty much anybody.

Like, I get it. And I was thinking about that this morning. On a lighter side, I'm thinking, I would love to be a fly on the wall. And you know, as much as Bill loves Tom and Tom respects Bill, you know that this last contract conversation, you know it's uncomfortable. Be sure to catch live editions of the herd,

I remember it clearly as a kid. Terry Bradshaw was the quarterback Super Bowl winner in 74, 75, 78, 79, MVPs. And now, look at our set. Look at our, look at how

it's grown. Terry Bradshaw's joining us. Your first Super Bowl was in 1974. Did you even four? Did you even get a police escort to the game back then? I don't know. I don't know. Maybe. I'm not sure we did or not. But, I mean, it was pretty raw. It was a football game.

Right. I remember going to the game in New Orleans, and after the game, we got our clothes on and talked to the one or two beat riders. and that was it. One or two beatwriters. Yeah, I take one or two people. From the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. Probably, yeah.

And then may have done one more, but I guarantee you, I bet my life on it. I didn't do more than three. Okay, but I remember also the last one was in Los Angeles. Right. And that felt big. The game then was getting much more glam. I remember the catchback of the end zone to Swan,

Vince Farragamo. that game, Terry, felt like a Super Bowl to me. As a kid, that was one of the first Super Bowls that felt big. Do you remember? To you, not to us. To players, it was big. All of them were big. Here's the only thing that's gotten bigger is this, money, of course, but this, the coverage.

Look at the set. I mean, this is crazy. Isn't it crazy? Look at this. All this belongs to Fox. Fox set all this up? Yeah. Holy cow.

Amazing. How can they afford to pay us? How do that? I don't know. But really, this is impressive. And I think in Super Bowl 9, my first Super Bowl, I went with Fran Tarkington, and we went in the New Orleans Saints offensive players room, which was probably 16 by 30, and took pictures. Me and Fran. Yeah. to some to some

to some degree imagine the players today would say boy I wish it was like that now now you have with all the social media and you can't do anything and there would you have done okay with social media no you and Namath

no I would have not done well at all I wanted to be like Namath you did I wanted to be like Joe I wanted to have the confidence to talk like that no I'm going to back it up I would have loved to have been able to do that. I wanted to do that. The first pair of white shoes I bought in Tampa in a preseason game were 10 and a halfs. They didn't have my size, 12, and I wore them just so I could

be like Namath. Really? Oh yeah, about killed my poor feet. Why didn't you have the confidence? You were a number one pick? I don't know. I'm one of those kids. It's always, I always felt like I was about five years behind everything. You know, coming over here today and I don't understand anything they're saying in the back seat and they're talking on social media stuff and music's playing. I don't know any of this stuff. I'm just in a, I live in a protective world, I guess. I don't know.

I just got a very, my focus is so much different in everybody's. No, I get it. So I find it fascinating. You wanted to be Joe Namath and so many kids grow. I've told you this story. I'll tell this story one more time. So when I was a little kid, your team, Terry, I wanted to be quarterback. And so I got a football jersey.

And I had a football. You know, you got a football at a local sporting goods store, right? They didn't have dicks back then. Probably Bob's in my hometown. Got it. So I bought a football. And when Terry threw the football, he grabbed the top of the football. So I tried to throw it like that. And I remember my dad saying, I don't think you're Terry Bradshaw. I don't think you can throw it like that. He goes, why don't you just, because my hands were smaller.

And so I'm like a nine-year-old boy. And then I played high school football and as a quarterback. I was terrible. and I started... I can believe that. I don't see any athletic ability here. Okay, no, this is where you were born, man. You're born to be on a mic.

But I remember throwing out... You screwed up a lot of kids because you had this perfect... People forget this, Terry. You were drafted number one. None of your games were on television. In fact, when you were drafted number one, where were you when you got the call?

I was pulling out of the driveway to go fishing. And did Mel Kuiper call you? Who called you? Mel Kuiper, I don't even think even Mel Kiper wasn't born. I was going fishing. My dad stopped me and said, you got to get, you got to stay. I said, why am I? He said, I got a call from George Hallis.

And he said, they're trying to make a trade to take you with the first pick. I thought I'd go like third or fourth round. And I went, bull, dad, what's, you know. And he said, no. He said, you can't go fishing. I was mad. I had to park, put my boat up. And then he made me go put on a shirt and a tie.

Oh, Lord. I'm like, Dad, are you kidding me? I mean, I was furious. But I did it. And my dad said to us, I did it. Where did you get the artistic stuff, the singing, the music, where'd you get all that stuff from? All the singing. Yeah, where'd you get that from?

From my mother's family. All of them are, get to our players, singers, all singers. And the church in the South? Probably, mostly. my one uncle made his guitar, a beautiful voice. My other uncle had a gorgeous voice. He sold Wonderbread. He just loved to sing. My mother's got a really pretty voice. And my brother, my younger brother Craig, sings like Pavrotti. Oh, he's amazing. And I told him, I said, you didn't listen to God when God spoke to you because you're supposed to be singing and not

selling houses in Dallas. I mean, he's really that good. And here I am. I'm. I'm. I I'm the one that's singing. Makes no sense. You know? We love you for it. Yeah. So you go into games like this. I want you to go back because the Terry Bratja, I remember, big, strong, huge arm over the top.

You were all of it. But like Jimmy Garoppolo. Why come Joy doesn't get to talk? Well, you know, I... I mean, why have I got to listen to you? Terry, I talk a lot. I like, I like Kong getting his flow. But I can make an argument.

You were Jimmy Garapolo. You had a big running game. You had a big defense. Right. And you won Super Bowls. Right. And everybody was talking about Mean Joe Green. Right.

And Franco Harris. You didn't. How much did you throw a game? Your teams were like San Francisco. I think for my career, I had Johns Arneckee look it up. I averaged 19 passes a game. Isn't that incredible? 19.

And I saw Jimmy after the game the other day before we presented the trophy. I said, how's that arm? You guys, that baby down the night? What do you throw? threw eight passes and I said, Jimmy, I won a Super Bowl throwing 11 passes. I threw 11, 23, 32, 30, I think, something like that. No more than that. And he said, you've got to be kidding me. I think there was a certain part of Jimmy, and I'm going to interview him tomorrow. I really like, I love both these courts. My wife is here, she just loves Mahomes, loves him. She's a cheese fan, loves him. And both these kids are really good. But he was just shocked that we won't. I think he felt like he's not doing his job because he's doing his handing off. And I found as a quarterback making, because I called my own plays,

I had and was taught all this running game, you had to make the audibles to get the right play at the line of scrimmage. And I found that to be just as exciting, you know. And now at 71, you say, gosh, I wish I'd have thrown 40 a game now because we're not any good because our stats are so bad. I think Breezy's got 75,000 yards. I think I got 27,000. It's almost like take me out of the Hall of Fame.

How'd I even get there? Even this one idiot down in Dallas says, I don't even know how. He ought to take him out. He don't even belong to me. I'll kick his ass. A little worm. Well, I mean, just the world's change. I mean, in baseball.

For the better. For the better. Yes. And by the way, in baseball now, Terry, it used to be about starters going nine. Now it's all about the bullpen. Yeah. So relievers are going to have more endings and they're going to be. Exactly. And I don't know nothing about baseball, but Joel Lertsen's Joe Buck.

And Joe says, well, big so-and-so starting the day. Boy, he's had a guy. He's 21 and 2. If they can get five strong endings out of it, so they can get, they can't wait to get to the bullpen. That's right. Exactly. So when you look at Mahomes, you were known as having a legendary arm. And I'm trying to think a lot of your contemporaries didn't.

Greasy didn't have a huge arm. Stabler didn't have a huge arm. Oh, Stabler was amazing. We didn't have a huge arm. Oh, Stabler. So amazing. I played against that guy, man. He was so amazing.

Just scare you to death. He installed back with the two guys I never, Bert Jones was another one. You don't even remember. You remember Bert Jones? Yesterday in the elevator, I ran into Lydell Mitchell. Wow. He goes, young man, I enjoy your show.

I said, who are you? He goes, Lydell Mitchell. I said, number 26. You and Burke Jones were my second favorite team. There you go. Penn State. Boy, could he sling that pill? Bert was great.

Bert could sling it. I mean, like, talk about anybody in the NFL today, and they'd had to get their second behind Bert Jones. Man, what an arm. So when you look at Mahomes, are there throws he makes, you couldn't? Now, you really think a guy that's in the Hall of Fame is going to admit that there's a throw that this kid can make that I can't make? Go look at my tape back in the 62.

I watch you. You were good. I don't. I could make those throws. I just never, I'd made some throws like that, but he does it every game. Mine would have been highlight real. And he's allowed to.

He's got Andy Reed. You have Chuck Knoll who was. Let me make a point to our listeners. There's so much more pressure on a young quarterback, like Groplo. If you look, he averaged like almost 290 yards a game in the regular season. It got into the playoff.

I don't even think he's, I think it's 95 yards. It's something like that in the last two games. Yeah. And there's more pressure on him because he's not going to have an opportunity, so far from what we've seen, so far, because he may not have the opportunity to throw 35 or 40 passes. So therefore, let's say they come out and they run 13, 14 times in a row, and then they're filing a third and long,

misses it. What's Shanahan going to think? Oh, man, we've got to run more. I mean, you see it's a fine line, man, that guy's got to have that comments to know that this is our game playing. This is how we've been winning. And this chief team, while better now than they were after really 13, this is a pretty good defense played pretty good. And now you've got to say, this kid can chunk it, you know, but when you're only throwing a handful, there's more pressure on that guy that's going to throw eight than that guy is going to throw 38. That's a really good point. Terry Bradshaw, Four Super Bowl rings. That's a good point, isn't it?

You can use that as a show work. Okay, good. Later. So Pittsburgh girl, by the way, Joy Taylor's a Pittsburgh girl. Serious. Yeah. Jason Taylor, Hall of Famers. Her brother, you know that, right?

Wow, no. You didn't know that. No. Her brother's Jason Taylor. No. Hall of Fame, a good-looking guy? Yeah, I know who he is. Yeah.

But I can't. He shouldn't look like Jason Taylor. I have more hair than Jason does. Yeah. By the way. So good of you to let her talk. I appreciate that. The show, I do the interviews, and I fly.

Oh, you do the interviews. Most of them. I never watched the show, so I don't know how this word. You should. It's very, very good. Look at everybody laughing over there. Now, you're an entertainer, but you're actually behind the scenes. You're very serious. And I asked you one time, I said, you know, you were probably a partier before big games.

And you're like, please. you were kind of straight-laced. Very straight. My dad scared the hell out of me. He did. He told me when I got drafted, he sat me down, I'll never forget it. We went through a, you're leaving home,

and you're going to a strange town, and he's trying to explain to me how it's going to be, and he said, don't forget that you have my name, and don't embarrass the family name. You get up there, you do your job, and then when your career is over with, you know, You take that experience and you move on through your life, but he was real proud of the Bradshaw name, and I didn't, I never forgot that. I very seldom.

I remember one time I'll say this, Joe Green called me, and we were on our way to San Diego to play, and he said, meet me at the hotel. We'll have a beer before we go to the airport. So I said, all right. So go to have a beer with Joe, go to San Diego, I play bad, we lose. paper. Brat Shaw's seen in a bar before the game and that was just a really good lesson, just a simple, innocent little beer. And can you imagine today? Can you imagine, especially me, you know, as a friend of mine Dave Stewart, oh by the way, if you ever get down to Sarasota,

Florida, want a free meal, go to Captain Kirk's, ask for Dave, and he owns a joint, tell him Cherry Bradshaw, send you, food's free. Serious, serious, that's the key. Bratshaw sent you. Dave Stewart said, I got feelings. I'm used to say, that's a great line. I have feelings, and I think I'm too sensitive, but worried too much about what people say.

And so it would be hard for me. It would be, not now, because it doesn't bother me now. I'm used to it, but it would have been hard for me coming out of Louisiana Tech and, while a great school, It's not like we're, you know, in the Southeast Conference playing Alabama and Florida every week, so LSU. So it was a learning curve that I'm not one that really likes to grow up. I kind of like to stay a little boy. It's fun.

I married a really smart gal that takes care of me. Thank God, you know. So, but yeah, I'm pretty serious about a lot of things. But for the most part, I wake up making folks. laugh, which makes me feel good. I love seeing you. I love you coming by the show. I really do. I really enjoy it. Do I? Do you enjoy that? I don't have the earpiece in. I can't hear what you're saying.

You know what? Better that way. Oh, was it? When you can't hear me, I'm way better. Well, that's what I heard. Thank you for coming by. Oh, that's it. I drove hour and 45 minutes in this traffic. This is all I get. Can I at least say that I'll be at the Luxar starting in March for the whole year? come to Vegas, come see the show. Be sure to catch live editions of the herd weekdays in noon Eastern, 9 a.m. Pacific. All right.

And with that, it's time for, we do it about once, twice a year, another edition, a Super Bowl edition of two truths and a lie. Joy will give me all Super Bowl related, two truths and a lie. You're going to give me three things. One of them about these Super Bowl participants is not true, and I have no idea which one it is. Here we go. Okay.

Let's start with Patrick Mahers. Holmes, quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs, jersey number is his college number and his draft pick. His godfather is LaTroix Hawkins. Or he was nicknamed Kermit by his teammates because of his voice. Which one of those is a lie? The obvious one would be Kermit, so I'll just go with that one to start. That is a lie, yes. All right, I got that one right.

That was an easy one. You're easing me into this. Yeah, he was not called Kermit in college. No. All right. Jimmy Garapolo. He started as a running back, starred in local commercials as a child, local commercials as a child, played soccer in high school. Which one of those is a lie? Played soccer in high school. Wrong. He starred in local commercials as a child was a lie. I thought that was the most true. That seemed obvious. The handsomeness confused you. Yeah, that was the easy one I thought. No, he played soccer in high, in high school. high school. All right, Travis Kelsey. He starred in a reality show looking for love. He lettered for three years as a quarterback in high school. He was runner up on dancing with the stars. Which one is a

lie? I know he was on TV for something. Well, two of those are TV options. I don't think he starred in a reality show looking for love. Incorrect. He was not a runner up for dancing with the stars. He was on a reality show looking for love. What was the show called? It was a show. called Chasing Kelsey. Was that what it was called Chasing Kelsey? All right. I've got to watch more TV. Chasing Kelsey. I just watch sports and politics. I'm sorry about that. George Kittle.

His favorite restaurant is Panda Express. He knows every Rihanna song by heart. Or he almost left football to pursue professional wrestling. Which one is alive? He knows every Rihanna song by heart. Every Rihanna song by heart. That's false. No.

He does know every Rihanna song. Rihanna song by heart. He did not almost leave football to pursue professional wrestling, although I do think he could be an excellent professional wrestling. So far, two more left. I'm not doing well. Okay, two truce in the live. Big Rihanna fan.

All right, Andy Reid spent his summers working as a vendor at Dodger Stadium. He is from Los Angeles. His Tara Reid, the actress, is his niece. Really? He sold his Eagles gear at a yard sale after taking the chief shop. Which one of those is a lie? The third one. Sold his eagle gear at a yard sale.

Nope. Nope. You're not doing well at this game. Tara Reid is not his niece. He did, in fact, sell his Eagles gear at a yard sale after taking a chief job. What an interesting yard sale that must have been at the Reed home. Don't drive by that yard sale. You don't know if it's Andy Reid selling gear.

All right. Finally, Richard Sherman. He has a pet lion. He cries every time he watches the Titanic. He once showed up to rookie practice on a gym. jet ski. Which one of those is alive? There's no way he has a pet lion. Correct. He does not, I don't think it is legal to own a pet lion. Although I'm sure people have tried. He does not own a pet lion, but he does cry every time he watches Titanic. I understand that. I cry every

time I watch Armageddon. So sad. Really? Yes. That's not a sad movie. It's so sad. He saves the world and he loses his daughter and, you know, the song, the Aeroson song. It's weird about movies because I think... Stay awake. I have no voice. I'm singing like... If I said to you, Mrs. Doubtfire, drama or comedy.

Comedy. Okay. Remember I used to make the argument? Greatest comedy ever made was Mrs. Doubtfire. The funniest comedy ever made. It's literally as funny at the end as it is at the beginning. Mrs. Doubtfire. It's strong.

I don't know. Some people think it's a drama. I'm like, what? One more herd? The herd streams 24 hours a day, seven days a week within the I-Heart radio app. Search Herd to listen live or on demand. whenever you'd like.

So I saw a story that came over yesterday, and it said a chief owner Clark Hunt says Patrick Mahomes' extension is probably a year away. And, you know, it's, I often take advice from older people and smarter people than me. And Jerry Jones has one of my favorite quotes of all time. And Jerry Jones talked about this, and he said, I've only in my life of doing business ever regretted it when I went cheap on stuff. If something's great, spend the money. Russell Wilson, spend the money. Carson Went, spend the money. Patrick Mahom, spend the money. Three things in the world I'll never go cheap on.

Transportation, toilet paper, and quarterbacks. You never want to be in a bathroom and go, wow, nobody's winning here. Don't go cheap on toilet paper. Don't ever, don't ever, you know, you go and you go on a nice vacation, you've gone on a vacation, you go to a vacation, you go to a Hawaii and you're like, it would have cost $27 more a night to get a partial view of the water. You're in Hawaii. You don't want to look at a parking garage. You want to look at the water with your beautiful wife or girlfriend or whatever. So transportation, toilet paper and quarterbacks, just pay the money. There are things I'd save money on. I'm not going to spend a lot of money for vodka. I mean, they're just trying to distill the taste out of it. It's potatoes. Yeah,

there's no real taste. Don't listen to anybody. Gray goose costs more than kettle one because it comes in a frosted bottle. That's it. And I like vodka. Adville. It's aspirin. It's aspirin. What do I care? I've got a headache, pop men, I'm fine. Bottled water, again. Really? Comes from Switzerland, comes from the local pond. It really doesn't matter. It's water. I'm healthier drinking it. I'm not saving a dollar on quarterbacks. By the way, running backs, you can save money on. I'll give you an example.

Here are the running backs in Sunday's Super Bowl. These are the running backs. Matt Breedah, Tevin Coleman, Rahim Moster, and Kyle Eusecheck. Damien Williams and Darwin Thompson. you can save a little money on running back. Sequin Barclay didn't make the playoffs. Zeke didn't make the playoffs. Adrian Peters in most of his career didn't make the playoffs.

There's a lot of ways to save money in the NFL with a salary cap. I would always love three running backs over one star running back. But in terms of quarterback, just spend the money. It hurts initially, but like Jerry Jones says, it's like real estate, it's like anything else. It hurts initially, but you look back and you're like, it's great, pay for great. Certain things you've got to pay for. Vodka, let's go buy cattle on it. It's the same as Greg.

It's the same as great. It just doesn't have as cool a bottle. Be sure to catch live editions of the herd weekdays in noon Eastern, 9 a.m. Pacific.

So Frank Calliando's got a podcast, the Calliando cast, wherever podcasts are sold. We're live in Miami Beach. Frank Calliando is joining us, comedian and impressionist, worked at Fox NFL Sunday forever. Okay, so I'm looking. I went on YouTube the other day, and I went and looked at your first,

appearance on Letterman. Really? And you crush. The audience loved it, but he heckled you. Yeah, well, I go on and I start doing the John Matt. I said, I love football, but what I really love is John Mad, and I hear from the desk. Yeah! I was like, what that?

Like, I didn't even know what was going on. So Letterman doesn't talk during people's sets. I'm talking like, here's a guy, blah, blah, blah, blah. And Letterman's going more, more. I was like, all right. So it was just a surreal. Yeah. Did he not like impersonators?

No, he wanted me on. So it was like heckling your think of as completely. negative. Heckling is just when somebody's saying something when you're talking as well as a comedian. Well, I would say your first big voice was Madden. And I do think Madden, not that he's easy to impersonate, but he's like Keith Jackson or Ben Scully.

There is a sound. Tony Romo is red-hot, and I don't have an idea how you... So what do you... You have a Tony Romo. I've started to work on the take. The take is the interesting thing to find, and he's raspy. And he's always... When he gets excited and he thinks something's going to happen, this is where it goes. Here we go, Jim.

So he'll be like, oh, this is incredible. This amazing and incredible and incredibly amazing. I can't believe everything is about to happen. And you're just about to see it, Jim. And here it is. Here we go, dude. He would be the worst person to go to see a movie with, right? You go to see the movies like, oh, the girl, looking at the way they're focusing on her,

she's going to get switched. And at the end, you're going to find out they've been living separate lives. And here we go, Jim. I'll come back to Tony Romo in a second. You, there are people that like the impersonations. Madden was a little, you know, I think Madden was a little. It was weird. When they don't meet you, that's the odd thing. I was at a Super Bowl, actually, for Fox when I met John Madden and made his grandkids laugh. And it was like a light bulb went on over his head. Like, I get it now. Now, what about presidents? Well, here's actually an interesting story. So when I was at Fox, I did a couple of different Super Bowls. One of the Super Bowls that I did was in Dallas, Super Bowl 45. When George Bush was president?

George Bush was there. I don't know if he was president still. It might have been, but he was there, and John Madden was there. And they were sitting next to each other and Jerry, or right, close to each other, and Jerry Jones was in between them. So I got up, I got past the Secret Service. They were going to allow me, Fox had cameras ready. And I'm texting with producers and stuff. I'm in.

I'm in. I'm in. This is going to be great. And they wouldn't let me talk until Jerry Jones stopped talking to them. Well, they never stopped talking. What's he talking about? Like, I believe that you have every idea of what's going to happen here. I'll tell you what, man, that's pretty good.

I don't know what we're talking about. So I'm just waiting. And then Laura Bush comes out. And it's funny because Jamie Fox is sitting in the back of Jerry Jones Suite. He's got sunglasses on. I don't understand why because it's in Dallas inside. It didn't make sense at all. But he's a star, so I guess you can't.

But it was one of those types of situations. I said hello to him. He was very nice. But Laura Bush comes over and says, oh, the president and now we're watching you this morning. You were very funny. Like, well, can you tell him to tell Jerry Jones to stop talking? I want to go in there and get some big time publicity.

So Jerry is, I've met Jerry one time. He's a bigger than life guy. Yeah, he's, I've never met. When I tried to meet him years ago, he just turned, like, it was at an event. And he's like, ah, hey, it was like a sitcom. Remember when Seinfeld didn't have time for Newman? He was like, oh, I've got something better to do that. That was Jerry Jones.

I went up to, hi, Mr. Jones. I'm Frank. Okay, I'm going to talk to this guy. I can tell the same story I just told. Like, what the heck? What is going on here? By the way, Jay Glazer got you kicked out of a Super Bowl. Yeah, you're hearing all the stories, aren't you?

Yeah. Yeah, my first Super Bowl with Fox, I was, I got to, I got to, you get those credentials where you can go anywhere. You can go on the field. You can go. Yeah, I've never had one, but go ahead. I'll tell you what it's like to be in the big, with the big star on the door. So they said, you can go anywhere?

I go, can I go on the field? They're like, yeah, I go. kick the ball. They're like, kick the ball if you want. So I'm down there, and Jay Glazer, it was the one who gets me to go down. He's like, Frank, you got to go down there. It's incredible. It's amazing. You listen to the national anthem is one of the most amazing things I've ever heard. It's so incredible. And then, and then

the planes fly over, greatest thing I've ever heard my entire life, right? So I go down there, the planes fly over. A guy from NFL security is like, what are you down here for? I'm like, I've got to be honest. I'm just here with him. He's like, but what are you doing? I'm like, nothing. He goes, you got to get out of here. I go, but I have this credential that says I can kick the ball. He's like,

takes it off of me and kicks me not just out of the field, kicks me out of the stadium. So I'm kicked out in Jacksonville. I'm outside. I don't know. I sneak past a security guard who's hitting on some girl. And then I get back and I'm like, I talked to David Hill who was president of the network at the time.

Like, I don't know what just happened. You know, I'm not a troublemaker or anything. He goes, down where I'll take care of it. So I get my credential back. And I'm like, Terry, talking to Bradshaw. I'm like, I just got kicked out of the Super Bowl. Like, well, the plan worked. We got rid of you for a while.

Wow. Tell you what, let me tell you. He was in here earlier. How did that go? Oh, he's great. Any sequiters or was it just none? No, he just... Let me tell you about my grandpa.

How do my shoes look? Hey, cup is this way. Like, what you're talking to is like the herd with cow and how cow herd. Call head. Cowhead. That's what it's, but it says, herd up there. Come on. Just proven I can read, Calhead.

Cowberg. Cowberg, I remember you. We've asked to play for you. I love that you're trying to talk over me. John Gruden is going to very. Vegas, that you perform in Vegas, how do you think John's going to be in Vegas? I'll tell you what, man. Get some of those.

I'd like to see him just bringing other teams around Vegas before the game. I think that'd be a lot of fun. I'd tell you would, man. You should play some of these table games right before we start the game. How about that, man? We lose a couple guys that way, man. It's going to be pretty good. It is.

So I want to go back. So I did something earlier today. I don't do impressions, but we have this new technology where I, it's creepy, where I can talk my way through stuff and I can look like Belichick. We don't have it on our monitor here. Our monitor is changed up. I'm looking at Kyle Shanahan.

But we have these things where I can look like Shanahan or Belichick and Brady. So I ran this earlier. Let's run this from earlier in the show, please. You're looking at Patrick Mahalms. You're looking at Russell Wilson. You're looking at Lamar Jackson. The game has changed.

You're looking a little bit more like a Philipsy. It's happening. Journey line, Manny. Andy's not crazy? He's going to become Bill Belichick, but he's talking too loud, Jim. Here we go, Jim. Now, watch this. Then I become Brady.

Is that what you're saying? I can't handle this. Listen, if I could be Tom Brady, I would just do it all the time. I would never stop. So when you, can you do a Jim Nance and a Tony Romo? I've been working on the Nance by Nance. Hello, friends. That's all I.

Yeah, that's about what he does. Yeah. He's very good. John Holberg, who's out of a podcast with me, all he does is throw to people when he does Jim Nance. And let's go down to, like, that's what it always is. then they come back to him. Jimmy, when we, Frank, Jimmy, Frank Calliando, so I want to talk briefly.

We have about a minute and a half left. So you do a lot of sports stuff. That's my gateway into knowing you. Yeah, Frank. I didn't know. I see on Letterman. I see the Madden stuff. I see on Fox.

But you also, I would imagine audiences probably crave Hollywood people. Even more. I think to the average. Oh, yeah. Overall, if you want to, I think, succeed, you have to have a broader base, that type of thing. So if you stick to just the sports impression,

I think. Okay, so I'm going to ask you to do one. Okay. Okay, so I just watched the movie. I like that way more than my wife. Have you seen the Irishman? No, I don't have 15 hours to watch it. Okay, so I loved it. I love Scorsese. Martin's great. And I think they do this, by the way. The reason I showed that Belichick, Brady thing, they changed De Niro's face and Pecino's face. They look like kids. Yeah, but they're like 55 years old, you know, 70 years old. He's kicking a guy, but his face is 50 or 30, but his body is 75. How about Pacino going into dinner? Like, I heard you like Super Bowls. Like, let me try it on. Full light. Don't really have to do this. I heard you like Super Bowls.

I do. Yes. Yes, I do. But I also like pregame shows. Huh? That's a promo. Do you see what I did there? Huh?

Always working it. Frank Caliando, the Caliando cast. It's wherever you get podcast. iTunes. Yeah, and you can find me at Frank Caliando on Twitter, Instagram. And if you can't spell Caliendo, It's the letter C, the word alien, and the word do. At Frank C, alien.
