WEBVTT

1
00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:33.479
Well, good Tuesday, Metriplex the
down Beat us here with you. I'm

2
00:00:33.560 --> 00:00:39.640
Kevin Turner. We had Nanda Alis, but no Mikey Siroy. He was

3
00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:45.640
power texting us last night from New
Orleans. That was nice having a little

4
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:51.439
a little text tryst with New Orleans
Mike Siroy. He's having a good time.

5
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:56.640
I texted him earlier that day he
sent us the picture of the Jarnians

6
00:00:56.679 --> 00:01:03.320
commercial. He sent me a picture
of a Portocol hamburg Kay, And yeah,

7
00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:06.439
it was half eaten, so it
looked kind of gross at the time,

8
00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:08.719
but I'm sure when it was served
it was perfect. But yeah,

9
00:01:08.760 --> 00:01:15.840
Portocol, is this joint really awesome, this little spot in in New Orleans.

10
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:19.359
It pound for pound, It's my
favorite hamburger that I've ever had,

11
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:26.760
With all due respect to Maple and
Motor gold Rush, the Landing Portocol is

12
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:32.120
badass and no one thing that I
forgot to mention to Soroy when because he

13
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:34.879
said he's gonna go. They went
their first days. It seems like it

14
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:41.280
was their first meal when they were
but they don't do French fries. Instead

15
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:47.000
you get you get a hamburger,
and then instead of French fries, they

16
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:53.680
give you a giant baked potato.
Whoa, And I tech he because I

17
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:57.599
saw Christina had posted something about that
they were at portocol and it is like

18
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:01.599
its eighteen minutes ago. And I
texted Mikey immediately and I said, U

19
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:06.799
gonna need a picture of that burger
bro. Then he sent me the photo

20
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:08.000
and I was like, oh my
god, the baked potato. I forgot

21
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:12.120
to tell you about that. He
goes, baked potato is kind of stealing

22
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:15.840
the show. Okay, baked potatoes
are dope. Why do we forget about

23
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:20.680
the baked potato because fries are so
easy? Is that what? O?

24
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:24.520
Foods are great? We love snacks. Yeah, yeah, and I I

25
00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:29.599
mean you're both in the same page. War to teamotatoes, not haters toats.

26
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:34.280
And a baked potato should serve as
the same thing as a French fry,

27
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:38.120
but it's just not. It's because
it takes like forty five minutes in

28
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:39.800
your oven. Yeah, but you
can do a lot of cool things with

29
00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:44.199
baked potatoes and mash a lot of
ingredients in there if you want. Mm

30
00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:49.840
hm. You'll have to still prefer
the fry though, like the one at

31
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:52.960
a time. Man, the bite
size. I'm just saying, chop.

32
00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:58.759
We as much as we love the
potato, I probably have like one baked

33
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:01.400
potato a year, and it's criminal, yeah, because they are so good.

34
00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:07.039
I saw that picture the Mikes Roy's
baked potato, and I immediately went

35
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:08.639
to my fridge to see if I
had any potatoes, and of course I

36
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:15.400
didn't know, but I had a
whole freezer full of crinkle fries and waffle

37
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:21.800
fries and tater tots because it's a
good air frar snack that takes five minutes

38
00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:28.199
and your toddler loves them too.
Yeah. Boys, there anything better then

39
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:32.560
air frying up a nice batch of
tots and then you take them out and

40
00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:38.319
then put the aluminum foil down on
the toaster great or whatever that thing is,

41
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:43.599
put them on that and then put
cheddar cheese and jalapenos and just kind

42
00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:50.560
of give it a nice little salamander
melt. It's amazing. Okay, Carl

43
00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:54.080
Lewis, We're gonna be hungry all
day now, I know because we did

44
00:03:54.080 --> 00:04:02.199
this to ourselves sometimes in the first
hour we talk about and they were hunky.

45
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:06.159
We're sitting there going at eight o'clock
or God could use a water burger.

46
00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:11.879
Burger and some of us elite the
whole thing. Huh, and then

47
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:15.279
feel bad all day. But yeah, he uh, he's okay. So

48
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:18.839
I didn't know this. So Mikey, he's off all week. He's in

49
00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:24.959
New Orleans, him and Christino taking
a little little mid December Vaca. He

50
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:28.160
went to the damn Cowboy game on
Sunday night. I didn't know that.

51
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:31.639
I'm not surprised. I mean he
does make the list of people that you

52
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:36.279
would expect to show up somewhere big, you know, somehow, some way.

53
00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:42.519
Yeah, and he's got a lot
of golf friends that have connections and

54
00:04:42.759 --> 00:04:46.560
free tickets and cash. Yeah,
he rubs, he rubs elbows with folks

55
00:04:46.600 --> 00:04:50.920
that we could only imagine. Oh. Christina Ray has known for a lot

56
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:55.920
of things, but one thing she
did that just blew us away. Long

57
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:59.399
time ago. There's a big concert
for what this isn't Green Day and Wheezers

58
00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:01.000
a few years ago. But Ben
was trying to get tickets to it,

59
00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:09.199
and Ben like called John Daniels the
Rangers GM at the time, like can

60
00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:13.160
we get tickets? And He's like, man, that's concerts like next week?

61
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:15.439
Like I don't, probably not,
And I was like you know,

62
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:18.800
it's like in the middle of the
trade deadline, he's just bothering. What

63
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:26.800
is been doing? Yeah, and
uh, Christina got sent up there yn't

64
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:30.240
go to the iHeart Suite. Just
do a couple of social media posts and

65
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:31.519
she's like, oh my god,
I had the sweet to myself. And

66
00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:34.600
Ben's like, I was trying to
get tickets to this thing and she's like,

67
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:36.480
yeah, no one was in the
iHeart Suite. It was just me

68
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:41.240
and Mike. It's like so that
they're pretty good. It ended up at

69
00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:46.839
big events. Yeah, those two. Cause he we were texting yesterday and

70
00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:49.399
you know, talking about the delicious
portocol Hamburger and I said it so,

71
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:51.800
well, you know there's a bar
right down the street from where you guys

72
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:56.639
are, easy walking distance, my
favorite bar in New Orleans. But I

73
00:05:56.639 --> 00:06:00.000
don't think they're open yet. This
was about like twelve thirty or one yesterday

74
00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:02.399
afternoon. Yeah they opened. I
looked ups, like, yeah, they

75
00:06:02.439 --> 00:06:06.399
open it three and he said,
yeah, man, I went to the

76
00:06:06.439 --> 00:06:12.279
game last night and I think I
only slept from about three am till six

77
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:17.079
am. So we're gonna go grab
a nap. So man, I love

78
00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:24.680
vacation. Siroy is oh man,
there's a distinction between vacation Siroy and in

79
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:32.439
vacation time me that you're tired,
just trying to not be tired. Yeah.

80
00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:35.079
If I can do that at the
end of a vacation, I'm happy.

81
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:39.759
Well, you know, Mike and
Christina both go have a good time

82
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:47.480
and can rally with the best.
I can still do it for one day,

83
00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:53.279
yeah, and then it's we've hit
them and we've just crossed that line.

84
00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:56.199
I've accepted it. I don't even
try to fight it anymore. Now

85
00:06:56.240 --> 00:07:01.160
we've got one day next week where
up it might get a little silly.

86
00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:06.439
Yeah, yeah, might be ubering
to the U Alamo Draft House in Lake

87
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:11.800
on Tuesday night. Yeah, fine
with it. Buy your tickets if you

88
00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:15.360
want to take part in that chit
canery at ninety seven on the Freak dot

89
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:18.360
Com. Tell more about that real
quick. It's Alamo Draft House. Uh,

90
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:23.000
let's freaking chill series and it's office
Christmas Party A good comedy movie.

91
00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:28.879
Jason Bateman, Jennifer Aniston, TJ
Miller, Kate McKinnon, Olivia Munn and

92
00:07:28.959 --> 00:07:33.240
more funny movie. I don't think
any of us have seen it. I

93
00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:36.240
haven't seen all of it. Yeah, so I'm looking forward to it.

94
00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:39.920
I wanted I wanted to watch something
I hadn't seen before. Same kind of

95
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:43.240
thought that'd be kind of cool.
Yeah, And I mean, I don't

96
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:46.240
know. We had to do something
Christmas season. The do you like?

97
00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:50.399
We were making fun of Mike Trico
and Chris Collinsworth yesterday claiming that they watch

98
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:55.920
home alone every single year. I
don't know. Maybe I'm a jerk.

99
00:07:57.079 --> 00:08:00.920
I don't like feel the need to. That's Chris was time was load up

100
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:05.800
some Christmas movies or you know what
I do? Though, I found some

101
00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:09.319
of my favorite TV shows of all
time, Parks and rat Community, two

102
00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:13.199
of my faves, The Office too. Everyone loves The Office of course,

103
00:08:13.680 --> 00:08:16.680
of course, but I might run
through a Christmas episode or two of that

104
00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:20.079
stuff, like you'll go dig in
and find them in there. I just

105
00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:24.759
find a couple of series and kind
of funny. You know what's funny is

106
00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:33.600
most of my twenties and thirties I
didn't I kind of lost that Christmas spirit.

107
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:37.399
But there is something about having a
baby in the house. Yeah,

108
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:41.840
I am all about it and have
been now for three years straight. Like

109
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:46.320
I like putting up the decorations.
I like having the lights on in the

110
00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:52.000
house. I put up the lights
on outside on the front and make sure

111
00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:54.519
that I'm turning them on when they
need to be on and all that.

112
00:08:54.679 --> 00:09:01.200
And I love driving through neighborhoods and
showing Malcolm, you know other houses they're

113
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:05.919
badass Christmas lights, and going on
walks and looking at inflatable Santa and all

114
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:09.399
that stuff. I don't know.
I'm way into it, like okay,

115
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:13.080
real quick. So this year we'll
do what we did We've done for the

116
00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:15.919
previous two. So this will be
his third Christmas. He's not three yet,

117
00:09:15.960 --> 00:09:20.200
but you know, he was born
in March of twenty twenty one,

118
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:24.159
so this will be his third Christmas. And we always go to, Uh,

119
00:09:24.519 --> 00:09:28.200
there's this house and I always forget
what street it's on, but it's

120
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:33.840
a Highland park and it's called like
Santa Village, and these people have been

121
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:37.919
collecting all of these, you know, different types of Santas and all these

122
00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:43.399
badass Christmas displays and their entire front
yard. Their electric bill in December must

123
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:48.600
be about probably, I'm not kidding, probably about ten. Grand City gives

124
00:09:48.639 --> 00:09:52.679
them at tax Tit's insane. There's
like one hundred and twenty Santa lit up

125
00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:56.320
Santa Clauses in their front yard.
That is so crazy. It's really really

126
00:09:56.360 --> 00:10:01.919
cool and it's kind of a Dallas
ella se thing to do, especially if

127
00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:05.360
you're in the neighborhood, because you'll
go, you'll go on any given you

128
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:11.120
night after dark and they'll be I
don't know, half a dozen to twenty

129
00:10:11.159 --> 00:10:16.080
people standing out that make that a
stop that it's a destination point. People

130
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:18.279
have their they're all bundled up,
they've got their coffees and their mittens,

131
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:22.080
and they've got music going in the
front yard Christmas music. It's just really

132
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:26.759
cool and Malcolm loves it, and
we'll do that again this year. Yeah,

133
00:10:26.840 --> 00:10:28.919
it's kind of a little You just
create these little traditions that are fun

134
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:33.200
for kids and you find a way. That's one cool thing about having a

135
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:37.120
kid later in life is you get
to relive all this stuff that you thought

136
00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:41.320
was kind of dead inside. That's
awesome. Well, this is where I

137
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:43.919
like acause now that I'll live with
a woman too, that'll change things a

138
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:48.720
little bit. Yep, because like
trees going up, well, it wasn't

139
00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:52.080
in the last ten years when I'm
living in an apartment alone, I wasn't

140
00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:54.720
doing anything. It's like lights are
going up, there are decorations now,

141
00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:58.720
and all that stuff. That's all
back. Okay, so your family is

142
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:03.559
enough to you with all me only
being what hour and a half, couple

143
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:07.759
hours away? Yeah, so you
probably didn't spend too many holidays by yourself,

144
00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:11.240
now just a couple. There were
times. I remember plenty of times

145
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:18.480
where I would get takeout at Maggiano's
at North Park on Thanksgiving because I knew

146
00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:22.480
I was spending Thanksgiving by myself.
You know, ten years ago is a

147
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:28.720
breaking into the business. Ten years
fifteen years ago now almost like I had

148
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:31.440
to work overnights and things like that
though, So you're like you're kind of

149
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:33.600
there. Yeah, you're running the
board for the Robert Rolonski, you know,

150
00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:37.919
Christmas show or whatever. So like
that. I remember a couple of

151
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:46.399
Christmases or Kavanaugh and I just went
to a wing place and watched basketball.

152
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:50.480
I've spent a couple of Christmas is
doing that. I kinda there's part of

153
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:52.360
me that kind of loves nice,
right. One of my favorite things to

154
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:58.320
do on holiday nights. If I
am kind of an orphan, a holiday

155
00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:05.639
orphan, there's no better time to
go to a dive bar than the night

156
00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:09.039
of a holiday. Yes, Wednesday
before Thanksgiving, of course, well that's

157
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:13.159
kind of like that's I don't want
to say amateur hour, but that's a

158
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.559
big night in the bar industry because
you know, family is just getting in

159
00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:18.559
town and you want to kind of
tear it up because nobody's working the next

160
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:22.919
day and it's a lot of people
that are from out of town. You

161
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:24.440
know, your cousins are in town
or whatnot. You want to take them

162
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:30.960
out to. But yeah, the
holiday night. Most people aren't going to

163
00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:35.120
get a free pass to go out
on Christmas night. But if you're single

164
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.480
and you live alone and you don't
have any family around, and you have

165
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:43.720
don't have to really answer to anybody, that's a great time to show up

166
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:48.679
because that's when the true hardcore,
dedicated barflies are there and it's just fun

167
00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:54.720
to be with who you said single, Yeah I did, but trust me,

168
00:12:54.799 --> 00:13:00.919
girls aren't there. It's you know, dude, it's sad only dudes

169
00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:03.960
that are that are hanging out.
It's just kind of fun to converse with

170
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:07.720
those guys. You know, I
go. I still do like the Polyphonic

171
00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:13.919
Spree Christmas thing every year, pretty
much every once start doing tooth year and

172
00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:18.480
like this year usually like my brother
and his wife will come up for it,

173
00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:22.559
or a couple like my parents went
last year. So like it's like

174
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:26.240
weird kind of kind of way like
to get together and then that always turned

175
00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:30.879
into a wild, long night.
Yeah. Usually it's like this year,

176
00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:33.799
like my brother's bringing his five year
old. My brother's got three kids under

177
00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:37.759
the age of five. He's bringing
his five year old niece or my niece,

178
00:13:37.840 --> 00:13:41.000
my niece to go to my daughter. Yeah, I guess she can

179
00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:45.159
handle it now, she can you
know, it wouldn't be sensory overload and

180
00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:50.919
intertention spans broader. Yeah, and
you know, you know, like you

181
00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:54.399
just like as you know, when
the two year old's God, they just

182
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:58.759
go off on their own now,
and you can they do like hover at

183
00:13:58.799 --> 00:14:03.480
all time. Well, they set
the tone too, and dictate the evening,

184
00:14:03.559 --> 00:14:07.960
because if you're one song in and
a tantrum goes down and they want

185
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:11.559
to leave, it's over. It's
pretty much over. Yeah. But the

186
00:14:11.559 --> 00:14:15.600
five year old's like and she's she'll
be six in January, Sojesus, she'll

187
00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:16.960
be able to handle it. Absolutely. It's gonna be kind of fun and

188
00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:20.720
it will be cool. That's the
type of thing that makes me go,

189
00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:24.200
oh, you know, we're also
fortunate enough in this town to have a

190
00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:26.639
I've got a couple of friends.
You may may or may not know them,

191
00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:31.000
but Max Hartman, good good buddy
of ours, and Ricky Derek.

192
00:14:31.080 --> 00:14:35.519
They both do a Sinatra Yeah I'm
kind of not impression, but a tribute

193
00:14:35.559 --> 00:14:39.480
to Sinatra. And they do these
things kind of that tonight. I don't

194
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:43.840
know if it's tonight, but Max
has been doing them his Sinatra thing more

195
00:14:43.879 --> 00:14:48.759
and more frequently lately, but he
does like the Sinatra holiday thing, and

196
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:54.960
Ricky does his with like a full
orchestra, and typically it's like at the

197
00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:56.799
Granada or something like that. But
those are always really fun to go too

198
00:14:56.840 --> 00:15:00.120
as well. I haven't made one
this year, but I think I will.

199
00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:03.120
The stuff like that that I still
I still feel like I do all

200
00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:07.600
that Christmas stuff like a a few
like a little bit of it. And

201
00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:11.200
it's more and more that I live
with a woman like now, it's like

202
00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:18.240
mapping out to like Christmas Eve,
I'm going to her family and then figure

203
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:20.879
out the rest with my family.
And it's a little more scattered now.

204
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:26.720
But I was thinking about this last
night, and maybe I was just mad

205
00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:31.279
because the Packers were getting beat.
I'm a Packers fan and they just lost

206
00:15:31.320 --> 00:15:35.720
the Giants, and is mad.
I was just like so, And then

207
00:15:35.720 --> 00:15:37.480
there's thinking about this. I mean, Christmas is so stressful. I think

208
00:15:37.480 --> 00:15:43.080
I was just in a bad mood, but it is because I do get

209
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:46.799
to a point around this time,
two weeks before it where I'm just like,

210
00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:50.759
I want it to stop, because
people have been talking about Christmas for

211
00:15:50.840 --> 00:15:52.600
three weeks now, and I'm kind
of like I want it to stop.

212
00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:56.039
I want it to be over.
Well, there's radio stations that have been

213
00:15:56.039 --> 00:16:00.759
playing the music since like the day
after Halloween. Yeah, crazy thanks like

214
00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:07.080
Thanksgiving or November one. That's when
the playlist gets transferred and kicked in and

215
00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:11.639
you're here in Silver Bells. I
think you did something. You said something.

216
00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:15.200
It's gonna change my outlook though,
because you said, like those things

217
00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:18.480
that you thought were dead inside,
you can get them back, absolutely,

218
00:16:18.519 --> 00:16:21.840
because I you know that he says
a kid that is like the number one

219
00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:26.159
thing you look forward to all year
long m hm for whatever reason. So

220
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:29.279
I don't know, maybe I need
to get that back. I'm going to

221
00:16:29.399 --> 00:16:32.240
change my attitude today, Danny.
Oh love that today is a day of

222
00:16:32.360 --> 00:16:38.240
change. So next week I'm out
and you guys are working Monday and Tuesday.

223
00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:41.120
Correct, But I'm gonna come up
on Tuesday. I want to come

224
00:16:41.159 --> 00:16:45.440
hang with you dudes, all right, And I think we're gonna do our

225
00:16:45.559 --> 00:16:48.600
downbeat gift exchange. Yeah, that's
not a white elephant kind of thing or

226
00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:52.039
secret Santa. We've just you know, gotten some things because JJ got all

227
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:55.440
of us something last week and we
said, you know what, hold on

228
00:16:56.039 --> 00:17:00.879
because we've got a plan in place
here and we're gonna to do this next

229
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:03.680
week and we'll do this on the
air next week. So I'm excited about

230
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:07.160
getting y'all's presence together. I have
an audio gift that I was gonna play

231
00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:11.680
last week, but the fire alarm
went off in the building, So great,

232
00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:17.039
save that for that day too.
Amazing. You're a giver, Kevin.

233
00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:21.920
I'm a giver. It's the season
of giving. Like I don't even

234
00:17:22.160 --> 00:17:26.559
I don't even mind the the Christmas
commercials now you know, now you're back

235
00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:32.440
in I don't care safety. Oh
Toyota Lexus has a bow on the car.

236
00:17:32.759 --> 00:17:36.240
Awesome. You like when that hot
blonde got her boyfriend a dog again

237
00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:40.319
for the that chick's got to be
like sixty three by now, who's driving

238
00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:45.240
the car? They're standing and the
snowy no one knows who's driving the car.

239
00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:51.279
What about the one where he walks
outside and she's like, no,

240
00:17:51.559 --> 00:17:53.680
that one's mine as she picks the
bigger one, like the truck over the

241
00:17:53.720 --> 00:18:00.640
car, and I'm like, who
got two cars? That's seriously not relatable.

242
00:18:00.680 --> 00:18:06.000
It's literally anymore. You you just
racked up eighteen hundred dollars a month

243
00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:12.160
in car payments and that's probably on
a ridiculous eighty four month note, yeah,

244
00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:15.079
which is a thing now eighty four
months. Yep, it's a big

245
00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:22.000
deal. Essentially, a car is
now a mortgage. Pretty much? Who's

246
00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:29.079
got two big luxury cars? Commercial
actors Jardians galm makes probably fifty thousand for

247
00:18:29.119 --> 00:18:33.519
that commercial. I bet you made
more than that. No, there's no

248
00:18:33.640 --> 00:18:37.359
way. I bet you don't have
a huge budget they have. I'm sorry,

249
00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:41.880
what Jardian's Big Pharma doesn't have a
huge budget? Okay, fair,

250
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:47.039
come on, I bet I guarantee
you she made at least one hundred grand

251
00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:48.680
for that. That pill does have
a story to tell. It's little,

252
00:18:48.759 --> 00:18:53.519
but it does have a big story
to tell. We're having Chris Jericho at

253
00:18:53.559 --> 00:19:00.640
studio at nine ten, which that
ought to get our wrestling audience all fired

254
00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:03.920
up. But he's way more than
that, and he will join us at

255
00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:10.119
nine ten, and probably it's a
thing with just quite frankly, let's just

256
00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:15.160
be open here me and you would
have been like, no, I'm good,

257
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:18.319
but Mikey was like, oh,
dude, y'all need to take Chris

258
00:19:18.400 --> 00:19:22.200
Jericho like he's a big deal.
And I'm like, I know he's a

259
00:19:22.200 --> 00:19:26.720
big deal, Like I knew that, but I didn't realize how big.

260
00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:30.920
No, I didn't realize how big. I didn't realize how how he had

261
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:37.400
diversified his career either into a million
other things. Dude, talk about a

262
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:40.440
guy with range, Yeah, I
can. Can't you kind of read up

263
00:19:40.440 --> 00:19:45.079
on that? That fella, he's
like the boss who's got time. You

264
00:19:45.079 --> 00:19:51.079
think skin's busy, try being Chris
Jericho for a day. Good lord,

265
00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:53.599
so much stuff. And then when
he gets done with us, he's gonna

266
00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:57.759
sit down with AO. But he'll
join us at nine ten. So Wrestling

267
00:19:57.799 --> 00:20:02.640
Hill, why are you promoting?
I don't know? This is on my

268
00:20:02.759 --> 00:20:07.799
email is it really Ao was gonna
interview him? Yeah, and their show

269
00:20:07.839 --> 00:20:11.359
off right now? Yeah, I
wonder what they're running. They're running best

270
00:20:11.400 --> 00:20:18.599
of They're playing Godzilla? Yeah,
Stephan things they're playing Godzilla? No,

271
00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:22.880
they might be actually hold on,
let me find out you see, Yeah,

272
00:20:22.960 --> 00:20:26.440
go take a look. We're gonna
find out what lone Star ninety two

273
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:29.559
point five is playing because we're in
a studio right next door to them.

274
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:33.599
They're in the iHeart Family, the
Dallas Cluster, if you will. Kevin's

275
00:20:33.599 --> 00:20:37.240
gonna peek his head and then find
out what jam they're playing by I predicted

276
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:41.720
Godzilla. It could be Oh,
I don't know, feel like making Love.

277
00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:45.119
It could be Goodbye Stranger by Super
Tramp. It could be the Rain

278
00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:51.440
Song by led Zeppelin. What is
it? Katie? Commercial? Commercial?

279
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:53.799
Something we don't do much. We
have big, long, fat segments here

280
00:20:53.839 --> 00:20:59.119
on ninety seven, Won the Freak, What was he saying? Oh?

281
00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:02.599
Yeah, Christ Jericho, Ben and
Skin's performance reviews at nine thirty five.

282
00:21:03.519 --> 00:21:07.400
Today, we have to take a
look at their year in and just kind

283
00:21:07.400 --> 00:21:10.680
of see if they're gonna make it
back for twenty twenty four and after what

284
00:21:10.759 --> 00:21:15.400
they pulled yesterday. Things do not
look good for them in the upcoming year.

285
00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:18.240
No, and when you say they
pulled, you gotta be careful because

286
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:26.799
those guys are always pulling. H
that's Kevin Turner makes always off this week

287

nine probably JJ's top ten movies of
the year. A buckle up for that.

297
00:22:14.720 --> 00:22:18.000
I'm gonna do it. Eight.
We're gonna do a couple more couple

298
00:22:18.079 --> 00:22:21.000
things in there. Let'll see if
we have time. It's look, just

299
00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:23.880
tell everybody it's it's time. Not
to mail it in, but it is

300
00:22:23.960 --> 00:22:27.920
time. For year end wrap up
stuff. It's time for lists, it's

301
00:22:29.000 --> 00:22:33.559
time for bestus. Look, everybody
does this, and there's a reason they

302
00:22:33.599 --> 00:22:37.160
do it. It's there's two reasons. Number one, it's pretty easy,

303
00:22:38.079 --> 00:22:41.640
and number two, people kind of
like it. I think. Let me

304
00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:44.799
tell you, narrowing down my top
ten songs of the year was the hardest

305
00:22:44.799 --> 00:22:48.319
thing I've done in my entire life. Okay, it was torturous and it

306
00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:53.160
took forever. My top ten TV
shows the year as well, I think

307
00:22:53.200 --> 00:22:59.079
I can do those quickly. Okay, at eight o'clock probably we'll see seven

308
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:03.480
point thirty in the sky. I
got some things and one of them involves

309
00:23:03.559 --> 00:23:11.799
controversy at Saturday Night Live, which
may not may may not get anyone fired

310
00:23:11.880 --> 00:23:18.480
up. I'm all ears kind of
interesting. They left a rookie cast member

311
00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:22.319
out to dry on Saturday Night and
TMZ has picked us up. It's kind

312
00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:26.920
of taken off a little bit.
Also got a new brewery and deli in

313
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:32.519
town nextored to each other. Might
talk about that and little more details in

314
00:23:32.519 --> 00:23:36.119
the map cell as well. Got
a lot of sports too. We have

315
00:23:36.599 --> 00:23:41.400
boy Mikey and Kat were sad babies
last night watching their football teams. I

316
00:23:41.480 --> 00:23:56.119
was a bitch last night exactly.
Luca went bananas again. That dude's playing

317
00:23:56.160 --> 00:24:00.880
on an entirely different level. So
we'll hit all of that at seven.

318
00:24:00.279 --> 00:24:07.240
He's the only healthy mav dude.
He is insane. And there's something Luke

319
00:24:07.400 --> 00:24:11.880
headband Lucas has a new attitude too. That or being a future father.

320
00:24:12.359 --> 00:24:15.720
No, he's been dad now.
Actually the thing already came out. I

321
00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:23.200
forgot eight thirty Dingo's Morning News.
And we've been so bad this week because

322
00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:30.400
one of our own, Dallas's own, appeared as the musical guest on Jimmy

323
00:24:30.480 --> 00:24:37.039
Kimmel was this Friday. This was
like last Wednesday. We've done a terrible

324
00:24:37.079 --> 00:24:40.000
We've done an injustice to our community. We're going to talk about that.

325
00:24:40.039 --> 00:24:44.240
We're going to play a little bit
of the audio from that performance. But

326
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:49.960
one of Dallas's biggest exports right now, I would say, who is blowing

327
00:24:51.079 --> 00:24:55.000
up and has been blowing up over
the last couple of years, did a

328
00:24:55.160 --> 00:25:00.680
very unlikely cover when we tell you
who this guy is, and the song

329
00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:06.000
that he chose to cover just kind
of made for a really fun night on

330
00:25:06.079 --> 00:25:08.920
Jimmy Kimmel last week. And we'll
finally get to that at eight thirty and

331
00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:12.920
Dingoose Morning News and also real quick
if we have time, so you said

332
00:25:12.920 --> 00:25:17.680
at eight o'clock, you're gonna do
your top ten songs of the year and

333
00:25:17.920 --> 00:25:19.680
in top ten movies. If we
have time, TV shows, TV shows,

334
00:25:19.720 --> 00:25:22.960
we'll see what happens. Okay,
if there's extra time, If not,

335
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:26.640
we can hold it till tomorrow.
If you're on Spotify, you know

336
00:25:26.799 --> 00:25:30.880
the year in wrap ups, and
I'm sure other platforms do this too,

337
00:25:30.880 --> 00:25:33.880
where they kind of tell you what
your most listened to artist of the year

338
00:25:34.119 --> 00:25:41.440
was, most listened to songs of
the year were I've got mine, And

339
00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:45.920
that end of itself is not terribly
interesting, you know, to me,

340
00:25:47.079 --> 00:25:51.400
I don't really care. It's pretty
easy radio show fodder to go down.

341
00:25:51.880 --> 00:25:53.799
Yeah, you know, it's kind
of like a self serving thing, like,

342
00:25:53.839 --> 00:25:56.799
look how cool I am and all
the cool songs I listened to this

343
00:25:56.920 --> 00:26:00.559
year. I have a twist on
this because I want to go back to

344
00:26:00.640 --> 00:26:06.759
twenty twenty, before I was a
father or a second time father, and

345
00:26:06.839 --> 00:26:12.559
I want to compare how awesome my
musical tastes were then as opposed to now

346
00:26:14.200 --> 00:26:17.920
on my year and wrap up and
we'll compare and contrast those if we have

347
00:26:17.960 --> 00:26:19.319
time. If not, we'll get
to it tomorrow. Get baby sharked?

348
00:26:19.880 --> 00:26:26.599
Good God, did I ever?
It'll happen. Uh huh. Well,

349
00:26:27.880 --> 00:26:33.920
we'll celebrate Al Roker day here on
the downbeat as he celebrates his forty fifth

350
00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:37.880
anniversary at NBC. That is just
reading what you saw on TV. Uh

351
00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:42.839
huh, sorry, said christ Jericho, nine o'clock. A lot more stuff

352
00:26:42.880 --> 00:26:45.920
throughout the day, a lot of
fun. We'll talk to Sports at seven

353
00:26:47.680 --> 00:26:52.039
coming up next. There were some
big dominations unveiled yesterday. Who got snubbed

354
00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:52.039
next? On the Freaking
