This is a downbeat on ninety seven to one, the freak. Scott Staff
joins us at nine o'clock. You believe that you should? Holy cow?
Who booked him? Was that you? Mikey? Was that UKT? We
both had a big email chain yelling it's worth the magic, but yeah,
you guys are incredible. Got him? Creed was at the Ranger game last
night, had a big press conference and making the rounds. So get him
on nine o'clock. You think they called Scott Staff like, hey, we
come the Ranger game and He's like, yeah, we'll come. Then John
Blake's like, we don't really need all the guys. I mean, just
because they kept showing Creed and the other dudes. Imagine have they ever been
stopped in public? I mean it's kind of unrecognizable now too. If you
look at scott'staf he you would know what scott'stab. But he he looks different.
He needs to grow a beard, he needs I think a beard would
help. Yeah, but how bumped he has rubber face? Now did they
do the song? An intro? Right after? It should be nice to
him since he's joining us. He's really handsome. When did they do the
song was that after the second inning stretch they did last time. I'm not
sure when they did it. I think they did the same spot right after
they hung three on us, So that took so much air out of the
sales of the sing along. And then oh my god, cut the Creed.
They're here, Yeah, he's here. Just to be clear, this
was a song that was played in the clubhouse yes one time, and everybody
was kind of singing that long multiple times. And Jared it can only be
Jared reported this. Jared got it from Andrew Heeney. Otherwise this probably would
have never even been a thing. Yeah, they've been secretive too this.
Jared Sanlin deserves an award for this because he got that out of Heen Dog,
and somehow it's taken off into this whole thing. And now the Minnesota
Vikings are getting create and Creed streams are going up on Spotify, and so
Creed just was sitting around, you know, yeah, just putting the word
Creed into the search bar and hitting a refresh, hoping that something new would
come up. Anything. Oh, I've they've been able to parlay this little
report about the Rangers listening to their song a handful of times in their clubhouse.
They've been able to parlay that into a trip to the ALCS in Arlington,
getting seats, getting cool jerseys, and holding a press conference. Dude.
The Dallas Morning News article said this the first time the band has reunited
in ten years now. They did have a cruise that is scheduled. Uh
huh, and this is the thing that they're going to I think next year,
because it is a some form of anniversary for them. Maybe it's twenty
five years. Yeah, they started ninety nine, so next year, twenty
twenty four would be the twenty fifth anniversary of Creed beginning. So that's uh.
I think it's taking it back to nineteen ninety nine cruise or something summer
of ninety nine cruise. Yeah, you know what, let's save that for
I don't know, nine o'clock. I could go through the specifics of the
Creed Cruise with you guys. Just Second Sailing just announced. Hell yeah,
that might not be for Creed though, because you can also go on the
Three Doors Down Cruise or the Daughtry Cruise. Yeah, a lot of options.
Oh my god, Buck Cherry is going to be on there. Hey
man, she's a crazy buffet. Hey what's up, man? God?
What big fan? Leave them alone? People trying to be so sad?
Honey, that's buck Cherry, everybody. A lot of people like these bands,
Daniel, is that the verb pipe? Now, that's getting another donut?
The verb pipe? So you're gonna be You're gonna spend thousands of dollars
to go on this cruise to see but Cherry, and then the bass player
of butck Cherry is going to get the last scoop of pasta salad in the
buffet, and you're gonna be standing there with empty plate. Yeah, you're
gonna make me scold you guys here. You know when to take shots at
these bands who used to air on the station Tonic. I love Tonic.
That's what does Tonic do? I think they did. Let's do this,
you see? I like that song too, She loves Me? Maybe?
What's the verbs pipe song? They have one? We were They're the better
freshipany we were only freshmen, we were merely freshmen. I don't hate that
song. I always thought that some one wasn't a utterable Okay, look I
get it. I know a lot of people like those bands. I've admitted
to liking article. Sure, of course. The only thing is it's like
it's one thing to like turn them on the radio or put them on your
phone and jam them out in your car. But do you want to be
sequestered for like nine days on a boat with them? I don't know.
I need to be trapped on a boat with dishwalla. You're viewing you're you're
viewing it wrong. You're not trapped on a boat with I guess you are
on any cruise. It'd be fun. Nine days is going to be there
and get you know, nine days. No, they're a big song.
No, no, this is the story of a girl that's nine days of
river and drown the whole world. Yeah, and it opens up the pohotograph.
Pop radio is nuts in nineteen ninety nine when you'd hear that into the
thong song back to back. Let's review some of the jams you'll hear on
the Creed Cruise later in the orientation This morning, I love it. It's
kind a but oh give it to me now. I got a wild one
for you today, guys. It is I usually like to be local here,
kaka cavo, be a little uh, a little national here, because
that's the story and it's it's kind of something that's on the minds of many
in the NFL, and the event holding a sphere, give me the sphere,
the tease again, something the NFL is afraid of, but does not
involve sports technically. Okay, I genuinely don't know what this is, do
you know, Danny O, no idea. I mean, we're talking terrorism
in the stands, Like I don't okay, I like terrorism that you said
there, Oh, don't don't keep I like terrorism. I would say,
like where you're going there, because you can't just a good guess, is
what I'm meant to say. So we're on the right track. Yeah,
so, Jonas said. A couple weeks ago, Ohio State and Maryland played
college football game and a drone was spotted over the game. This game was
on Fox, and officials suspended the game a few minutes pulled the players off
the field when a drone was spotted over the field. Now, the drone
flew off real quick, because it's a pretty quick interruption. Police tracked down
and arrested the pilot, who claimed that it was a new drone. He
just lost control of control of it. He's facing criminal charges, but he
looks like he's gonna get off because they're not feeling any malicious intent as he's
doing. I'm sorry, which caught itth man, he's doing that bit,
and maybe it's the truth that they're they're really like, Look, no priors,
nothing that would say that this guy meant to do this. But this
incident is the latest in a string of drone appearances over stadiums, and NFL
executives and members of Congress are paying close attention to this. Now. I'm
gonna read you this quote I found from an article on NBC News. Many
believe it's a huge security vulnerability that could result in a catastrophic loss of life.
We're concerned about somebody who would use drones in a nefarious way and drop
a grenade that would do considerable damage and possibly kill people. That's from Senator
Gary Peters, a Democrat from Michigan. He's also a chair on the Committee
of Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs. They also had valid concern right something.
I definitely haven't thought about the idea of a drone doing something like that.
Can I tell you if you didn't say that that G word right there,
I would have never said it on air. Because I don't you don't want
to like plant the idea of any of the stuff for no good reason.
I have for a long time feared the stadium grenade. Yeah, you know
what I mean, and I hate like I've been to stadiums, even with
media passes and stuff, where it's real lax and whatever, and just someone
bringing them in considered really the drone option, which is probably even more a
lot easier, kind of crazy, terrified. Yes, So basically what they're
talking about this article, stadium's and outdoor venues are defenseless from an attack of
a drone or a mishap from above. But they have incidents that have happened
in the last few years that we didn't know about, or at least it
was news to me. One thing they talked about the article is the Rush
of Ukraine war has demonstrated how easy it is to weaponize small drones. Okay,
right now, US law only gives the FBI and the Department of Homeland
Security the power to take down a rogue aircraft, and because those agencies aren't
fully funded, well, I think we have a skeleton crew around here.
The FDA, the USDA, the FBI, and Department of Homeland Security.
They don't have the resources to cover normal games. They only cover the Super
Bowl and the World Series. That's it. What So this could happen anytime,
And the FBI director said that they've investigated multiple instances of people trying to
weaponize small drunes. The NFL head of security said there were around twenty five
hundred drone incursions over NFL stadiums last season. Now, a lot of people
have drones. So did you say twenty five hundred. Yeah, up one
percent from the year before when it was thirteen hundred. So in twenty twenty
one thirteen hundred and twenty twenty two to twenty five hundred drone incursions. Now,
what constitutes an incursion is that it's got to bec of the dirt bag
culture hour Saturdays here on the freak flying his drone. You know, I
don't know. I don't know what constitutes an incursion. It's probably just being
within a certain radius of the stadium. If TC is listening and can help
with this, go ahead and call in, or if brother Cash knows anything
about this. Cash has a bunch of drones for video production work at the
Well Creative all your video production needs and he had to get a pretty serious
drone pilot's license. We're had to pass like a pretty hard test, and
there are big requirements on flying anywhere near air, open airspace, airports,
that sort of thing. I would imagine, Yeah, I would think stadium,
although part of his job is to get drone footage of the American Airline
Center. You know, that's when you watch basketball games and you see we're
live in Dallas. Yeah, I mean there's or Oklahoma City or San Antonio.
Like a lot of that is Cash is drone. There's a high concentration
of people. Yeah, but there's just beautiful shots of the city and then
they there's the part, or there's the stadium. If a bird could get
sucked into the engine of a plane, a drone could, of course.
Yeah. Of course. Last year I did not know this. A Seattle
Seahawks Atlanta Falcons game was inner for ten minutes when a drone flew over Loomen
filled in Seattle. I remember that. I don't. I mean, good
lord, just one a crappy pilot of one just crashes one into a crowd.
You could take somebody out with just the drone itself. You know.
The first drone Cash got he was so excited. We were in his house,
and you've been to his house, so he's kind of got these high
ceilings in that living room area, and we're trying to fire this thing up
and it's banging off stuff. We're trying to catch it. Our fingers are
bleeding. It was the most keystone cop idiot thing ever. They are not
toys, but people get fairly inexpensive drones. They're like, oh my god,
there's a camera on it. I'm gonna They just have no idea,
like I'm gonna go look at the stadium. This would be fun. They
don't even think about it. In the NFL game gets suspended for ten minutes.
Yes, I mean, don't underestimate people's simplicity or stupidity. But yeah,
oh I got a cool drone. I'm gonna go look at the ballpark.
Yeah, this would be fun. And they don't think even think they're
doing anything wrong, much less threatening the homeland. How would you know,
you know, just I mean maybe the common sense would kick in the not
flat there, but I don't know. The NFL head of security said to
me, this feels like a big hole in our fence, which it does.
I mean, you present the idea of dropping a freaking grenade from one.
They were able. Hamas was able to coordinate hang gliders with machine guns
and glider pilots in tandem to annihilate a music festival. You can't tell me
that some organized terrat cell couldn't put together a hundred drones to just assimilate at
one time and coordination. Heck, even you could probably even pre program You've
seen the fireworks displays where they use drones for those, and those are all
pre programmed, you know, to set your coordinates and just go at this
time. We're all we're gonna have one hundred drones over an open air stadium
and drop one hundred grenades at the same time. Who's gonna stop that?
FBI and home Land Security, which they are only at two events a year,
not the plan ideas, And I'm sure bad people have had this thought
long before it got brought up on the down Beach. That was a shocking
thing about this article though, is like a lot of this the public did
not know about. I feel like, and I mean, no one had
drones how many years ago now teenagers have drones. I mean, there's they're
fairly inexpensive and the ability to drop something. I mean, hell, go
to a game, they drop coupons and crap from the little drone blimp.
I mean, this is they're all over five dollars to massage and be cool.
This is why I recommend these teams getting on board with Soroy Industries.
Drones swatters, Okay, keep talking. It's on like a track at the
top of the stadiums, and it's coiled backward and it can rotate around the
stadium and if you find a drone then you just line it up and release
and it's essentially just a giant fly swatter. It just smacks the living s
out of these drones, and it hits them hard enough to where they fly
far enough away along with any of their payload. It smacks that off in
the distance towards safety. Okay, sounds expensive, do you no? Okay?
Why you know anybody? Mark Cuban, Yeah, because I genuinely when
you first brought up, like all right, what do we do against this?
Then I think I turned into a dumb joke. But I'm like nets
And then I thought, in twenty five years, is it going to be
all domes, because that would eliminate you know that security threat, and we
do a lot of expensive stuff for the name of security. Good Lord,
good buy college football if that's the case. Yeah, and you don't get
any big crowds than you do at some of those college football stadiums. And
they're all open air. So there's a good one hundred games every Saturday.
Yeah, and it's all it's all probably kids with attitudes that people that hate
America would really love to take out. The real thing is too an the
image of this article a drone over a stadium. Now that this could start
getting in people's heads, could cause mayhem if people just go oh, they
start running for the exits and trample people think it's twenty seventeen, a drune
crashed within inches of a spectator during a game between the Diamondbacks and the Padres
pet Coe Park. Another story from six years ago. I don't remember,
but a drunk crash in on a person just flying out at a high speed
and can hit someone on the head and kill them. The NFL director of
securities, she said this. There was a close call at the twenty nineteen
Super Bowl in Atlanta. Six Air Force F sixteen's were set to do the
flyover the FBI spotted a drone. There wasn't time to take it down.
They quickly communicated to the F sixteen's that hey, there's a drone and you're
right, it's right in your way, and they quickly elevated their altitude on
the flyover. On the fly she said, we've got to stop kicking the
can down the road. Policy is not keeping pace with technology. That is
a huge problem. Yeah, and that is true. So humanity isn't keeping
pace with technology. We can't impossible, it's all impossible, and we can't
even process how quickly everything happens. Nope, that's the challenges. What do
you do? You take your loss? Probably is what you do. You
take your loss and hope it doesn't happen. I hope there's not any monsters
out there who either a get the idea of that or just you know,
we're thinking that anyways, and do it. Quick birthdays, quick, quick
birthdays. I like birthdays. Michael Young's forty six today, Yeah, mister
Ranger, right, fantastic, Yeah, what a great dude. Michael Young,

a different John Favreau. Doesn't matter, it's probably the Swingers. And this
is this John Favreau is all but taken over the Star Wars franchise. Yes,
we're gonna go with the guy. You you all know what he looks
like, that John Favreau. He has some severe weight fluctuations and I support

Peepers was funny because he would do anything with an apple. Was he like
the monkey man? Uh? Huh yeah. Was he attached to like tethered

that's the het. Yes. I interviewed him a couple of years ago and
it was strange. It's just me and him, and it was odd in
person on the phone, but he liked me so really cool, liked you
for drinks. It was an odd interview. John Lithgow seventy eight. I
love John Lithgow. Were you first introduced to John Lithgow turd off from the
Sun? No, he was. He is creepy and great. Underrated John
Lithgow. Movie where he's a pure villain is Ricochet with Denzel Another underrated movie
that he is a criminal is Bombshell. Very good movie with Charlie's their own
Bombshell. Margot rob Oh, that's great, Yeah, that's right. Well
he was good. Did he play George Georgia as Ales Roger Ales. Yeah,
I first saw him in a movie that came out in the eighties with
Robin Williams, one of Robin williams first roles of a movie called The World.
According to Garp, Yeah, I don't know if any of you have
ever seen that, but he played I believe a transitioning or a trans former
Philadelphia Eagles lineman that was like this badass football player but was a woman,
you know, deep down. And what an edgy movie that was for like
whatever nineteen eighty five or whenever that thing came out. Is that better than
Tony Danz's The Garbage Man of Philadelphia. He's the kicker who was a trash
man. Never saw the Garbage Man of Philadelia. Letz Gal also word farquad
on Shrek, which farquad code for f wat Shrek was pretty awesome. Big
Head Todd's fifty eight pass, Jose Batista forty three, Evander Holyfield sixty one,

Evander Holyfield part of a boxing match against Riddick Bow where fan Man descended from
the sky's much like An and That's what I thought of instantly, is that
the man, the template that Fan Man already set is essentially what we were
just talking about. I remember watching him box in the Olympics when I was
in high school. Yeah yeah, and they called him, uh what,
Evander Hollyfield? Really? Yeah, swear to god, he was. He
was in young red Evender Hollyfield. When's the silver in Munich or whatever?
I don't know. I don't think it was the Munich Olympics. There was
