This is the downbeat. I'm ninety seven to one the freak. Okay,
so we didn't get this baseball pant thing. Reade that real quick. So
baseball's got a pants problem. Guys, see what could this possibly mean?
Let's decode this before he tells us? What are you saying? See through
pants is the only teas I've gotten because baseball is a pants problem. I
can't possibly guess what this means. So basically, they got new Nike pants.
Nike took over to be the pant distributor, and there's been a few
problems with the rollout and some teams are now just using previous pants to get
through that spring training his pants. MLB Players Association Director Tony Clark said,
quote, the universal concern is the pant. Good sentence, that is a
great sentence. The universal concern is the pant. The first problems of pants
are see through, and Bruce Bochie, when asked about it by Evan Grant,
he goes, or you're taking a pretty good look there, aren't you
having really just good daddy? Were there? Yeah? Asking about these sea
through pants and you're looking at my crotch. So we're saying the inner thigh
and the billowing crotch. If there's a light behind it is see through,
yes, okay, And you can see the outline and shape of the nugs.
You can, you can. I've seen a couple of pictures. Yes,
pants you can see nugs. Yeah, it's not dude, it's very
it's very much a problem. I mean it's it's crazy. You can see
there, especially to their butt too. You can see it all. Yeah.
The second problem is there hasn't been enough of the pants made, so
they got a shortage of pants and their seat through pants that are unhappy with
them. So usually players would get fitted in uh spring training and then they
get request some customization, and then about a week before the season starts,
they're set on their pants for the year. But now these requests to take
the fabric in like an inch or you know, you want to make it
tighter on the bicep or more loose like all of this. There's stuff in
the uniforms. They're not allowing these customizations the way they used to it.
I don't know why. So players are basically sorted by three body types of
slimmer, regular, and baggy. Those are those are the pants you've got
and some players are concerned that if Nike can't supply these, then they're not
gonna be able to wear them during the weeks before the regular season. They're
not gonna get into it. One player said, guys are gonna be pissed.
You don't want to be worried about that BS on opening day. It's
a s show. Another player said, they got a pant problem something they
do. Is this MLB wide or is this Yes, so all of the
MLB is switching to Nike pants and they're transparent. We have a pant problem
universally. Just look to us see through pants. This is one. I
mean, look, you can kind of see what's going on all of a
sudden. If your shirt's tucked in, you can still cover some of it,
Lord, but it's very much a problem. You can see the tail
of your shirt tucked in to your pants through the pants. This is a
universal pant problem. Is it made of gray sweatpants material? Okay, I
have ever met and I've worked with groups, and that's saying a lot grace
sweat I'm asking for the people. Uh huh JJ knows what sweatpants season means.
I got I got hipped to that about three or four years ago,
heard the girls spilling the beans that they're real excited when fall comes because that
means it's sweatpants season for men. We're going to be spilling the beans.
Oh, they're looking the beans. They're on hog watch. No girl thinks
the beans. No girls think the beans are hot, right, not look
at them beautiful beans. That doesn't make any sense. None of it.
Doesn't even mentioned the frank personality. It's on the outside. I think that's
the fascination is because it's all on the outside. We're women's Yeah, there
is all inside. Yes, ours is on the outside. See, boys
have a penis and girls have a china. I understand. Now. So
are we frantically sewing sewing to get new pants ready? MLB sources say,
nothing different than the pants from last year. It's a studio lighting problem with
some of these pictures. And they're like, no, it's not we're having
issues here. Everyone is having this problem because they don't get the pictures taken
at the same studio. Like, so we'll be's just here to denying and
the player's complaints are just adding up over here. Like guys, I believe
the players. I do too, and I believe the pictures I've seen of
the seat through pants like it's it's just it's right there. You can see
everything. There's a picture for the padres. I was trying to find it
the other day. Maybe it's the giants and he's sitting legs spread while holding
a bat on a barstool, and you can see everything in there. You
can even see a little bit of his of his butt crack up under the
taint. Was it Reggie the player, the slugger, the news slugger,
Reggie Paroni ready to have a breakout year? All right? Fixed, Kevin?
Ye female, somebody to fix this. I'll just handle birthdays and then
we'll see where it goes from there. We'll start with the deads first.
Johnny Cash would have been ninety two. You ever see him play live?
I didn't know you, you Kevin Never? Yeah? Tons of times it
was he Johnny Cash play live? Are you for real? Why I asked
that money? He died in ninety ten, fifteen years ago? Right when
did he die? I mean a couple of years after he put out that
hurt cover. It was in probably maybe you're even earlier than that, Yeah,
yeah, mid two thousand. The wrong Guy September three. I think
Long Black Veil is his best song. September twelve, it's a good one.
Fast Domino would have been ninety six. I actually did legend, absolute
legend. We're at Jazz vest No a private event because my dad's old boss
was Popeyes, New Orleans, of course, and we when I was a
little kid, we went to some private birthday party for Al Copeland and he
had Fast Domino performing. Did they serve fried chicken? Because it's Popeyes?
They did. They would often be Popeyes Delicious, Popeyes about you know in
Popeye's biscuits and now good Pope's bis guitar. So they would have the freshest
biscuits right there and they'd pull them out. They're hot, piping hot,
and they would take this paint brush and just butter brush this biscuit right in
front of you and hand it to you, and then you would just instantly
eat it. You know what I like to do. I like to take
a bite of biscuit and then squirt an entire packet of honey into my mouth.
That's weird, the squirting, well, but the fresh little trick.
That's probably why I only saw part of Fats Domino's performance because I was fat
kid huddled around the biscuit bar. Bobby Hill, d can I have some
more biscuits? Get away from the biscuit tray? Bobby, You bastard,
Adam Man. I think we need to add Bobby Hill now to the no.
I got a handkill on there already. Your handkill is really good.
Bobby's not good. Played by Pamela Ade. Jackie Gleason would have been one
hundred and eight to the Moon. Alie Gleason uh buried in the same cemetery
in Miami as my grandparents are. So I have as his dawn shula,
as I've told you, but I do. Every third time I'll go take
a look at Jackie Gleason's grave. He's still there. Why I can't verify
that. He has a gravestone with his name written on it. And he's
got a great little slogan. I don't think it's to the moon. He's
got a fight, hope, not when he's threatening to punch his wife.
No, what was it. He's got a good oh, it says,
and away we go, and away we go to the moon. Now it
doesn't have the moon, but it's a big thing and it says and away
we go, which I thought was a that's a good guy texts. Avery
would have been one sixteen. You know he did never heard of him.
Don't have a story for any tunes animator. And then John H. Kellogg
would have been one seventy two cereal, which would be would have qualified him
to be the oldest person. And then Levi Straus would have been one ninety
five. He would have taken the crown from John H. Kellogg. He
could have fixed this damn baseball pants problem. Just make them wear Levis never
had a pair of sea through jeans on his watch. All right, boys,
pivot, We're going with five oh ones opening day. Damn they had
to wear wranglers. That's the way, like far BacT like it was comfortable
to play football and wranglers when everyone knows it was cutting off your circulation.
Hey, that's how they played baseball in my neighborhood. Jeans, geens,
but not wranglers. Don't you think the Rangers should have an alternate uniform that
looks like you're wearing jeans and like a Yes Cowboys shirt with pearl snaps.
Female Rangers prune day. I mean you're wearing normal stuff, but it looks
like jeans and like a shirt with whatever that thing is and pearl snap like
a relatable day. You know, we're all in it together, you know,
cowboys like you. Well not yeah, the regular clea sput somehow they
look their socks look like cowboy boots or however, you do it, do
it nice, wonderful, make it really nice. You did see the spring
training caps got released today by MLB. No, yeah, they're all throwbacks.
Somebody might have placed an order this morning, really, Danny, because
they're a new era fifty nine or whatever, five nines or fifty nines or
whatever. It's my lid, bro. It's a nice hat. Yeah,
it's cool. It's red, white and blue with the old silly Tea logo.
You guys are both wearing Texas Ranger hats today. Well, we're about
a month and two days away from opening day, Mike, and after that
MAVs performance, I didn't feel right about we're in my city. I could
probably do without the countdowns until baseball and the update. Like Twitter's a lot
on that little box score. They used to work on a show where we
read the strip spring training box score every day and had an opening and clothes
for it. You sing the song for us, I won't come on it.
And now's the time when we's now the time, Now's the time.
Now's the time when we read the Spring Training bunks score something like that.
No, the Rangers box score, Spring Training box written and recorded in Port
Charlotte. There you go. Erkabaddi's fifty three. She had Thundercat come up
to her birthday party. Damn this weekend. That looked like a throwdown.
DJ Menas who was at the Kessler Friday night. Then I saw him on
stage at Erica Badu's show, the jagging of the big screen back drop.
I was like, oh yeah he he upgraded the next night though, no
doubt. And then, uh, Michael Bolton's seventy one, and I've got
another birthday. Should we cold call this guy? I don't know, I
mean maybe not. Mark Followell's fifty three. I'll leave him alone, Okay,
Happy birthday, Mark, Happy birthday Mark? He blocked us. Oh
well, he's playing Cleveland right or wherever they're going. Uh, stop it,
guess some talkbacks from the iHeartRadio app. It's where we have a red
microphone button and you can leave us up to a thirty second voice message and
they go something like this, Hey guys, Jeff, I'm Tulsa. Yeah.
Shane Gillis has an uncle Danny. He talks about him in his stand
up all the time. He's a down syndrome guy who makes grilled cheeses at
night and he smuggles them into restaurants. It's probably some of the funniest stuff
he talks about. I mean, you'll have a great one, all right,
Uncle Danny. Uncle Danny's a good bit. He makes his own grilled
cheese and then brings them to restaurants. I love it. It's me Christopher
Waking Nada. You know, I'm like a mix of Christopher Walking and Arnold
any Ways, is the Foo Fighters That guy, it's all He's just driving
to work and he's like, man, I got this funny verstination. It's
me and I think, what's an egger? There's something there and the truth
is pretty easy pass to get through the gate sometimes, and that one.
If you're telling me that you're kind of doing an impersonation, I'm probably gonna
put it on. Whether it's good or bad. I just see, I
just see the process. I see the guy sitting in traffic and he's kind
of mine's wandering, he's thinking, and after a couple of minutes he has
this Eureka moment, goes, where's my phone? It's time, that's time.
Eureka. He goes for it. Here we go. This is like
it's a dancer. Brud though she was so good on radio, Crandell wouldn't
put a sign up. Still calling bs on Crandall. I'm telling you,
get the mayor on right now. Mike, you have to do this for
Christina. You have to make it happen. Use your celebrity to get the
Crandall. Christina kra cornbread not bread sign. Come on, Bennetts Ginner dropping
the ball here. So it's up to you. Yeahvin. They got the
guy on and the guy was like, I'll help try to push it through.
I'll see what I can do. Then they called my mayor of my
hometown. He's like, yeah, we'll have one up in a few weeks.
They never got it done, but they're gonna put a little two clips
and a little dangling sign beneath there, welcome to the city sign that says
home of Kevin Turner. A couple of beans Kevin Durant is not a little
bitch. No, who is Kevin K. T. Turner a little bitch?
Damn? Just me kidding, man. I'm honoring the memory of a
buddy who was a cousin of my friend that we used to do a podcast
with, and that was what he said every time Kevin came up, you
know, because it was a podcast about the Freak and he died nineteen years
ago. All checks out. Let me, Detective Glass, this, yes,
that's all agit. No, no, Katie, I'm not calling you
a bitch to your face right now. I'm actually reminiscing about all the times
that me and my dead friend called you a bitch behind your back on our
podcast that went out to dozens and dozens of people. It's it's trust me.
It makes it makes sense. He's dead. I think I think the
people maybe aren't believing him, you know. Uh, man, Kevin Durant
looked at those people with the same face that I looked at my radio with
when I heard a thirty minute story about Bondo. I can't remember where I
heard it, but it was somewhere on the radio. Anyway. I love
you guys, Stay freaky. That was the old me before I learned to
speak in bite size yeah portions. The new truncated bay list is better truck
in day two when he was here and told us about Bondo for thirty minutes,
and then Kevin played the whole thing for some poor blogger fellas. I
can confirm I just went to max Ago for the first time about a month
ago. And when you get to the border, you just cross. No
one asks you nothing, You pay your three dollar fee. No one checked
you for a passport, no one checks you for an ID, none of
that. You only needed coming back into the US. Well I needed it
coming back, all right. That's interesting because I got absolute mixed responses on
the tech. Some people said, you absolutely, since I guess nine to
eleven need a passport going to Mexico. I heard very confident answers on both
sides. I mean, he's not a confident and strong. Well, they're
good people on both sides. Hey boys. When I was five years old,
I saw Steing standing in the middle of a WCWE and wearing face paint.
I was like, Wow, this guy wears face paint at his job,
just like my dad does. And right then and there I fell in
love. With professional wrestling. This Sunday, Steen has his retirement match in
Greensboro, North Carolina, and thanks to my best friend, him and I
will be in attendance. I will cry like the shy dancing bitch that I
am, but I will use those tiers to prank every rod a then a
school miles. Well, anyways, boys, we're forty days away from WrestleMania.
That's the Showcase of the Immortals. Mike, I love your Evan Bonds.
Oh oh man, that was actually like very sentimental. Was Is that
really happened? Sting's final match? Is this? I guess so crank Rod
again. Crank Rod always finds us way in there and he's gonna crank every
rod within forty square miles using tears as a lubricant. I guess I was
doing. It's the weirdest thing I worked with the Cowboys a little bit.
Has been podcasts for them. You've been this podcast studio and you know,
every once in a while, they'd bring through luminaries to kind of swing by
and you happen to be doing your show and they're just kind of waving at
you through the window, you know, having Neil McCoy walked in one time,
me and Joe Green. But the weirdest one is a fully painted sting.
Yeah, and you're like, this place is a circus. I was
just imagining Mike McCarthy trying to get stuff done. We mull sting is walking
the holidays seeing the black and white crow. Look, it was the most
recent black, yellow and blue. He looked like dayl Earnheart's old car,
the black and white. Uh yeah, the crow era. Yeah? Was
it cool? Did you get a picture? I didn't get a picture,
but it was just like you're not expecting it is. They'll tell you it's
happening. That three more baby, get my narc and ready KT twenty twenty
four, President relegalizing everything, bitches. Yeah yeah, support, there we
go. Did anybody ever find Homeboys, Twofoot, Lizard or whatever, monitor
whatever the hell? Oh we do, that's resolution maybe tomorrow. Akt Brett
Favre didn't wear them nut cutting wranglers. He was the relaxed fit guy.
His his chod was all good up and there let's see update on the lizard.
We had to be out by nine fifty eight lizards dead. Yeah,
found it. He found it in his yard. I sent you the damn
link. Yeah, we talked abut the last street, didn't we No,
I just sent you over the weekend cut of a picture of his Facebook thing.
He said he found the monitor Lizard in his own backyard, bloated,
bloated, looked like him dead and he suspects someone threw it over the fence.
I don't know, maybe he's just in his backyard and croaked. But
Katie would like to offer a handsome reward if anyone any information leading to the
capture of the person that killed and threw the monitor lizard into the backyard or
the squirrel who killed it or dog. But it is a sad story.
Sadly. Hey w back tomorrow morning at six am for JJ for Mike yan
a podcast say what we do and we're gonna reload. So everyone enjoyed the
Vind and Skin show. Next with Christina and Steve. I love Christina.
She's beautiful and cool. Everyone have the day you deserve.
