Let's go Tuesday morning. Come we out, sit down. Beat the latest
on the Fort Worth explosion that happened after yesterday afternoon. Today, it's six
thirty five. What was some first hand accounts people who were live in the
vicinity? Seven thirty five am. All right, that's right, damn people
in the area. First handed counts boots on the ground. You guys,
ever seen something explode? Talk in a while, boy in person? Okay,
Danny, you promised me, Yeah, dude, what's the deal man?
We clean up, set it up today. I'll do better from from
now on this weekend, starting right now, until you know things change,
I'm going to do better. I think it's an odd thing to see something
explode. It's obviously you can let up fireworks and stuff like that, but
to be to see an explosion that you had nothing to do with. I
guess a controlled explosion like the demolition of a building that didn't count. Does
that not count? Not in this case? Because yeah, no. Now,
tornado blowing up a transformer definitely an explosion I've seen live. I feel
like I've seen that too. I mean we see it on videos, I
like, on the ground and see it far away. It's pretty wild.
Yeah, yeah, but I don't think I've ever seen like a real big
explosion that's having to be at the right place, at the the right wrong
place, at the right time. I kind of saw my car explode,
and with all rogers you did when my car was on fire on my fortieth
birthday, I'll just tad to bring in the new decade in the tunnel,
in the tunnel, in the only tunnel in North Texas. Stupid, it's
real stupid. And some guy I pulled over and some guy ran up to
horn and I was like, get out of the car, got the car
because I couldn't see there was a fire. It was like under my engine.
I got the car. You just go back and kind of way watch
the old girl burn boils. Firemen showed up fast. He was like multiple
trucks like actually, the guy who waved it off coned it off like he
had cones in his truck. He was a good Samaritan. So people said
yesterday about the explosion, it is really quick. Tons of first responders barreling
down there at once, very quickly, and that was kind of I mean,
of course, it added to the chaos of the scene, but you're
kind of going, Okay, what just happened. There's tons of debris,
but the boy when ten cop cars and fire trucks start, yeah, zoom
into a spot. Everyone's on edge. I reached out to some of our
orth buddies last night and kind of to your point, Kevin, which you
just said, Geort's and Sam Georts, who you know, was during the
non college football season M and TC have a weekend show on this very station.
And then Sam Anderson from Quaker City Nighthawks, who played a freak of
Rosery. I was asking them, It's like, hey, do you know
anybody that well, were you guys near it? What happened? And George
is in LA working on some music project, and Sam said, I I
was driving into work when it happened and had ten military vehicles flying past me.
Drove past like ten minutes after it happened. You know what. Biden
was in town yesterday and I read one tweet that said that hotel was where
John F. Kennedy spent his last night. Lily, I thought it was
just built. I have no idea, literally did, I said. I
read a tweet, which is about the equivalent of me saying I just made
it up. And I'm sure they if they, you know, I heard
that it's new, but maybe it's an old building that's been redone. Yeah
it is. It was renovated. And yeah, okay by who? By
what company? The conspiracy is already within within a half an hour. Conspiracies
Fly, a company that stars owner Tom Gallardi is the CEO of Huh,
a Canadian. The day after, Jimmy Kimmel addresses the Aaron Rodgers debacle.
You guys are doing this. We'll get to that at nine. Yeah,
Danny, did you see it some? Okay? I did. I trimmed
it up pretty good to you know, cut out the fat on that you
trimmed it up display and impassioned. I should retort from Jimmy Kimmel seven minutes
worth, I believe, yeah really, and I think now you're gonna get
Aaron Rodgers is now in a place where he needs to. Probably he should
probably respond, because he's gonna look like a real jerk if he doesn't.
He teased that he's going to address it today on the Oh God say It,
The Pat McAfee show. Yeah, don't roll your eyes at us,
because we demand proper pronunciation of our media heroes. Mcaffey McAfee. So uh,
McAfee. So when Rogers is on with McAfee today, he'll either apologize
or he won't, and we'll have audio of the Kimmel retort at nine.
I also think we need to discuss for a few minutes. At nine,
Pat McAfee going after Norby the Snake Williamson, a CEO over at ESPN or
an executive at ES. Yeah, okay, I saw McAfee is doing a
classic and I mean a classic bit that quite frankly works. If you've been
fired or canceled, you should make everyone feel sorry for you and continue to
get people to glom onto your bus. And if he starts screaming sabotage,
which is what he's doing, then he's going to continue to gain more people
that were a large part of I would I would say his listener base,
I think it does. You know that barstool Broie type thing that gets you
ramped up. I'm in on McAfee. You know that type of thing.
And I don't know where this is going because they're paying him so much money
and so many people lost their jobs because they wanted to give him that much
money. Part of me was kind of wondering if him screaming sabotage is a
little bit on purpose too, though, like not really liking it. It
was a little better when I did it on my own and didn't have bosses
and didn't have to go do college game day every week and then have to
go to a field pass on the field every single week. Like he might
like it, but then might be beaten down by it after a while too.
So that's interesting thing. We'll talk about it now. It's exhausting to
this world that we live in today that every move, every thought that you
have to have has to be you have to either be a mind reader or
forming some strategy. Yeap. You can't just base anything on real facts,
what people actually think about you. You have to Everything is just so strategized
and okay, well, if he's thinking this, it's like life has turned
into an effing chess game. That's why you never went platinum? Is that
right? He just nods like, that's sorry. I had to say it.
Gotta make it a gotta make it a gotta be a manipulative force.
Yeah, I guess. So do you think you can still go platinum?
Platinum? I don't have a great example come on, dude, please go
platinum. Yeah, dude, if you can go platinum by the end of
the week, I need at the end of the week, we all need
it. I don't have a great example, but you're my only chance.
Dude, your mind. This is very much a band that I don't like,
never liked or cared for. But it doesn't matter. Everyone you like
what they want. But I've just read a whole book about the emo music
era from nineteen ninety eight to like two thousand and eight, and then how
it ended up, you know, and there were people call them sellouts and
things like that. Pete Wentz, the bass player a Fallout boy, was
a hardcore scene kid who then they got big and he started dating, making
babies with Jessica Simpson's little sister, and hanging out with Jay Z and Beyonce
in nightclubs, and they're like, Fallout Boy was trash. But Pete Wentz
had a marketing mind and he was selling merch on their website in two thousand
and two before anyone. He was on MySpace before anyone, and he created
all his own record label, Son of the Vents Forever. The point of
it all is fall that boy never makes it without that chess piece that you
were talking about, And that's what it is, man. Pat McAfee didn't
realize it until started getting a little bit of a following in the sports world
because he showed a little bit of a personality. And let's face it,
you show a little bit of personality in sports world, you can make it
on ESPN. A like big time analyst that they're going to continue to promote
is RG three, And you know what, he's kind of funny, but
he says some crazy crap sometimes he is. It's funny because he was like
posting about McAfee. It's like a whole meme of like jaw mouth open.
He's like when Pat McAfee goes at your boss, like this is kind of
funny. But they're about to just keep promoting RG three up through the ranks
because he's kind of he's not boring. You know, do you think Michael
Irvin gives like real good, hard hitting sports analysis. No, he's a
character. And that's how it works. It's almost like shoot for the lowest
common denominator and yell and yell the days of the slow burn intelligent build.
Oh done long gone, Yeah, been done, just point and yell,
yeah, you know what do you yell? Kevin? It works every time.
Oh my signature, yell, you don't have to read a book.
Speaking of selling out, what do you think John Travolta would have said in
nineteen seventy seven if you told him that forty six years later he was going
to be in a Santa Fat suit in the exact same dance he did in
his movie for a credit card Company. I was watching that and I like
it too. I like the commercial. He's cool looking and he's like cocky,
badass Santa, but he does the Santa you want. He does the
dance and the point and says, what's in your wallet? And he's seventy
years old. And if you told him that in nineteen seventy seven, he
would have laughed. Have you watched that movie Saturday Night Fever in Kevy?
No? Sorry no. It was always kind of a punchline growing up because
it was disco soundtrack, so you yeah, absolutely, But I mean the
Beg's that was. I had to reform my thinking on them as I became
an adult, because when I was a kid, I mean, that was
all just garbage music to us, and as an adult I've The Beg's are
one of my absolute favorite bands, and I love that era of music.
That movie is really good, believe it or not. It's not just about
disco dancing, much like Urban Cowboys, not just about you know, writing
mechanical bullets about domestic violence. Yeah, it's a really good movie. Can
Kevin and I try to guess what Saturday night fevers about? Absolutely going to
the club on a Saturday night trying to get women. Okay, that's definitely
a big part of it. Absolutely, But do you think that he just
started as a young buck dancing at the club and then the club was going
to be shut down or something, and that he had to like maybe end
up owning the club and dancing dancing it out of financial distress. Don't believe
that's working it out? Yeah, yeah, keep working. I'm gonna pull
up the official synopsis. Like he was a bad boy in Miss Misunderstood,
Bedford Steives Center wherever in New York. But he had this outlet and he's
a really good dancer, and that's where he felt really free. But what's
the fever part of it? That's because he can't stop he can't stop going
to the club on Saturday night and went in over everyone. Really yeah,
but well, you know what, winning over himself, Yeah, but gaining
equity in the community by doing that, allowing him to eventually have the financial
stability to buy the club, to buy the club and save the club and
save disco. The scene, the scene, we think, are we on
the right track? No? No, I don't think it has anything to
do with him actually buying the club. Welly didn't end up by the club.
He wanted to part in the middle. He wanted to buy the club
aspirations were there, and then he saved lives. He lives in a small
little apartment in Brooklyn with a huge family, his parents, his grandmother,
his younger sister. He works a crappy job at a paint store, and
to escape his day to day he dances at a disco tech and he gets
discovered. He gets good. He's the king of the floor. It receives
admiration. He's got some buddies that live in the neighborhood, and there's this
girl that's infatuated with him, but he's not attracted to her first, not
at first. But there's this dance contest that's coming up, and they enter
it. And that's kind of where it the apex of it happens at the
end of the movie. But there's so much other stuff that goes on,
as far as connections with his family and his friends and just being a nineteen
year old in seventies Brooklyn. It's a little snapshot of that era and it's
it's actually a decent film and it only costs three point five million dollars to
make and did two hundred and thirty seven at the box office. That or
Boogie Knights. I mean, you'll probably like Boogie Knights better. Yeah,
Booie Knights is great. I'll get to it's really funny, is good.
It's a lot of fun Yeah, no, I think I love it and
funny but it's not a comedy. But it's really funny, just like Harry's
supposed to get to all that when he still got to watch Oppenheimer. Like
Oppenheimer is just a wait that hangs above me. I know it doesn't.
I don't want to hit play on it. Well, and it's not even
free yet. It's still six bucks for rent on Apple TV. That's been
my excuse. Yes, exact stuff free like local radio and don't forget episode
two of Oh, tonight's the night. I'm not watching it tonight. I'm
gonna push it back. How how can you MAVs play a night? You
know, we had Jason Kidd on the show tomorrow, so I'm really want
to lock into the MAVs tonight. This John Morant list Memphis Grizzlies, and
we gave five listeners a pair of tickets, and I'm gonna see if I
can find them on TV ano. They're all at the game. Yeah,
I'm gonna see if I can point them out because I care. Look high,
I don't know they do not get Yeah, probably they're in the building.
When you were a little kid, you went to your first ever game,
did you know that you were sitting in the rafters? No, No,
you're laughing because you were there. You didn't think about it top row
and loved it. Do you know the first professional sporting event was that I
ever went to it and it was an exhibition take a wild guess. Well,
the way you said that makes me think so not like a Cowboys pre
That's what I was thinking. But he said it's an exit. Okay.
I would say the Cowboys were involved, but it was not a football game.
Oh, Harlem gold Rotters versus the Cowboys. They didn't Cowboys. The
Cowboys did back in the seventies and early eighties. They'd go on these tours
and do exhibition basketball games against the local fire department for some crappy talent fee.
And I went to one of those in Abilene. It was like a
ten years old and Witchita Falls. Yeah, I played some crappy you know.
I think it was like a what's the college? There's three ACU Hart
Simmons and another Murmurry. No, that's witched off aalls, Okay, it
was one of those, Yeah, that's switched off right. It was one
of those little college gyms. And there's Dallas, the Dallas Cowboys playing the
local PD or the local fire department. Then after the game was over,
guess what, you just walked on the court and walked up to Danny White
and asked for an audience the Cowboys. Yeah, summer summer hoops caravan.
I had this. I don't know where it is, but I had a
Dallas Cowboy pennant that was hanging on my bedroom wall. And I took to
that game and I got like Harvey Martin, Danny White, two tall Jones.
I mean some big names, dude that you would expect would be being
paid enough to not have to do this crap, not to bust out,
No, to go to Ablan to play a fire department in basketball? Did
cowboy Mania? And what if they did that to this day? These gyms
would be packed. If the cowboys that I mean even more so it could
be spare players and the gyms would be packed to go see O soo diggy
zoo wah. Yeah, hooping it up with first responders at Moody Coliseum.
Now, if they went on the road and did more of a tour,
it would be such a contract liability issue. It seems like those homeless places
are packed when they go feed all that food every time because people are hungry
every time. Give an example, it's a good example, a good photo.
Hospitals are packed. Yeah, that's due to the funny as a flu
rates arisingwoys dunk on everyone the fire department forehead, the fire department where the
they were the Washington Generals of the rolling planes. Was there mustachio competitive fireman
tiny shorts. Yeah, he's just taking a super serious Yeah. The traveling
sports games is kind of a wild phenomenon. Barn storming. Yeah, barnstorming
Jack White and his gang I like to do from time to time. It
looked that amazing that in just that short amount of time, you know,
about forty years, forty forty five years, that we've gone from athletes having
to effing go to Abilene to play an exhibition basketball game just to supplement their
income so they could make a livable wage from them to now promote the team.
It's just it's just the contracts that they've signed. But it's because the
contracts took forever to get anywhere near caught up with the ownership money. And
those players associations started fighting and be like, so what about this, you
guys, I think we're making a lot of money here, We're not making
that much. It's open up those books. So, yes, we all
get mad when these damn athletes make so much money. They don't have to
do anything like that, but it is commiserate to the ownership income, or
at least closer than it was back in those days. But dude, in
Abilene or even right now, if you went down to San Antonio or to
El Paso and you just said five cowboys, that were you know, maybe
a couple of me to start or get some snaps. We'll say Donovan Wilson's
the big headliner. They would pack out a place because there ain't many entertainment
options compared to here in the city, where we're spoiled rotten of having something
to do at all times, even when we're bored. We sound like idiots
the just crap to go do all the time, and the cowboy manias spread
so much about the Southwest that dude, it would it would be Midland would
be freaking out to go meet Malie Cooker, you know, at an academy
here. That was That's the thing that was interesting to me is those were
the level of players that you would see doing appearances, you know. But
to have Danny White and Ed Jones there was I couldn't believe it. Like
in retrospect, I can't believe they were there. That's really cool. No,
No Pain is too tall for him to handle. Hey, I'd like
to say commensurate, not commiserate. I screwed up a word right there,
and it's gonna bother me all morning. Guys. I don't correct it.
I have breaking news. What is it? Your local downbeat is now featured
in the Dallas Morning News. Why the post malone story from last week involving
Drew Pearson really look at that? That's sweet cover, guys. The fold

basically broke the news. I don't know. I didn't know anyone who knew

ten seconds during the games. I don't know, man, Posty is a
