with Billified on Facebook and Bilified Underscore pod. Oh it's always a good time.
Kevin has a chemistry experiment going on, and his pants over there,
and Dan as well, what really, I don't know some of them was
happening. I fart ones in one in a whole year, and I know
a whole year, in a whole year. My god, there are some
stuff happening over there. But you know what I have to say, never
offensive, never offensive. It is never offensive. That's the That's the thing
I have to say. I cleaned my mouth not so much. I went
I apologize fellas. I was a little delayed getting here today. I was
running around seeing some of the uh fine sponsors of this podcast, Billified and
uh ended up at Cobblestone on Main Last and had a Guinness and then I
had another one and then I had some dinner and I had another one.
So one of us is getting called an asshole, like the night of the
PGA. Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, everything's fine. Was it the night of the PGA? That
night he got drunk with Greg at the PGA? What did I do?
I called you an asshole? You called it? Lost a lot of things
that night, I don't remember. I forget about things, crying one I
put thirst behind me, I called crying. I believe you guys are so
nice to wait for me. I don't remember that you were sitting right there
with me. Don't fucking shake your no, But I don't remember. I
wasn't on the phone though. Well, now the truth is coming out,
and I like this because we called him an asshole. No stuff you did?
I don't know. Now Kevin has he didn't disagree with it. So
Kevin has gone on to me, and I made me feel somewhat inferior,
okay, because he's going on about I got a really cool gift for you.
It's so cool that I ordered one for myself. So I wasn't sure
what to do with gifts, so I I he had already ordered, so
I made sure I had things, and I was going to get things anyway,
but I don't know what I don't know what the protocol is, and
we're all dudes, but I was very Uh. I have to say I
have enjoyed Kevin's enthusiasm over the holidays. Yeah, seriously. I explained to
you earlier why I got you what I got you. I was looking for
something and found something cool. I just ran into it. It was an
accident, all right, whatever, Hey, I said to you, the
fact that you looked at it and went looking for something, I was like,
I thought, very very And No, Doug's from the Dollar Story,
you dick. Yeah, he keeps going on about your Craig Connor's thing being
from the dollar Store. No, it is not from the Dollar Store.
So, uh, should we commence with that? We'll start with that.
Then we've got Peter coming up to talk about break down the all twenty two.
Then he's got a lot of thoughts. What's your name? Shit,
don't say that, because that's gonna get me in trouble. And that was
exactly the only name I could come up with in my head at the moment,
and I didn't want to say that. All right, Okay, fine,
you ready ready for this? Okay, you've told the story. I
know, I know how it doesn't matter. Okay. When Monday Night show
we had a mom from Webster on and the mom from Webster says her daughter
got beat up by a transgender student. Okay, attacked, Okay, I
said, I think there's more to the story. I did learn that there's
a little bit more to the story. Today, Kevin calls me and says,
and so I actually talked to somebody and they said, you know you
were you might have been a little rough on the mom and I that sounds
wrong. You might have been a little uh yeah rough when we were talking
to the mother. So I said, well, I had told her ahead
of time that I was going to at least play devil's advocate, because you
can't have just one side, and this is an issue that has many parts
to it. So we got to kind of try to look at it from
I believe as a responsible adult, you should try to look from all angles.
You should try to It's not always easy to do. So I did
call her and she said to me that she was upset with Laura. She
said that she would have crawled through the phone. Laura was here on Monday.
She said, I would have crawled through the phone and choked her.
Choked Laura, yeah, because Laura had said basically that was out of she
said that. Laura said that it was this is the type of behavior that's
taught in your home. Basically. I don't disagree with her, Okay,
So I didn't hear. All I said was listen, I go, She
said to me, But you told me ahead of time, and I did,
and I tell that to everybody. Comes on, We're going to have
a discussion. And sometimes discussions get uncomfortable, but there's no means to walk
away, like I don't want anybody hanging up or pissed off or it's a
discussion. You can have a discussion and not come to an agreement and not
be assholes to each other. I believe is his. Yes, her formula.
I have a formulated one, but we can have one where we can
we can talk and sometimes and you may be able to see something and go,
you know what, I didn't think of it that way, right,
same thing. So all the facts, that's why they say there's three sides
to every story. Well, you can't change facts, but you can change
opinion. Facts are facts. Facts are undisputable, undisputab bull that would be
uh so. But then Kevin called me and said, hey, uh there's
more to the story. Uh. Lauris had had talked to Kevin. So
one time I got a Laura was here and she left the podcast and she
went to someone I know. She went to a party and it was a
woman there that I know, and this woman sent me a text and it
said it was the picture of the woman I know and Laura, and she
said she upgraded. And so I didn't know what to say. So I
thought, I'll be nice and I said, she's got good taste. But
then I always, my biggest fear starts nice and then there's none of hang
on, hang on. My biggest fear is I'm always afraid. And it's
more from my time on radio as you got more and more and more well
known, and not that necessarily the case now, but I always was worried
that somebody would misinterpret something. So I was I was concerned after I said,
like, she has good taste, meaning that she's hanging out with you,
and that maybe you think, like, could that be interpreted as I'm
hitting on you? Could it be? Well? I wasn't. But do
you understand I'm always I'll tell you I fucking think of everything. There isn't
a text that goes out. There is in an email that's written that isn't
probably written three times if you get it from me, And except you assholes,
seriously, because I don't want anything at all ever to be misconstrued,
because the world is a fucking fucked up place and people look for shit all
the time. And I will tell you a story of something after this.
So she writes back something about except for she has good tastes, except for
can am I allowed to say this? I don't care, okay. Earle
was hitting on her Earl David Reed. Earl David Reid was the comic who
I think is hilarious. Worked with him for a little while in radio.
He was here. He is no longer here. He Kevin and Laura went
to the club when Earl was here. Earle apparently was someone interested in Laura
made it a light term, made it, made it known, and I
think she said, well, you're out of my dating age range. Earl's
an older cat, I mean, a little bit older than me. Old
the bear, the sweeter of the juice Pilly. Well, I don't know
I've heard. So this woman writes back, you have some a reference to
Earle and I write back. I write back, but now I'm laying on
my couch. It's probably like ten thirty eleven o'clock at night. Pants num
my hands on my pants because Doug Phelps is on the fucking phone. So
I'm on speakerphone with Doug Phelps and I'm textings material and I have no idea.
I don't even remember what we were talking about. He called me about
something comedy related, and I write back, I go to right back,
Earl. This sounds terrible, and I hope people don't get upset. But
I'm like, oh, Earl digs the white meat is what I was trying
to write. Okay, all right, I will admit that I don't think
that that's a terrible thing. I don't the joke and well, yes,
but on some people get offendite. So but my phone, my phone auto
corrected white to ship Oh okay, so Earls, and to ship me is
what goes goes through. It's amazing how it auto corrected to a swear work.
Yes it is. So it is dead because I write shit a lot
apparently apparently I didn't know you need your herd exam, Bill. So this
holiday season, this ship means Jesus shit me goes through and now I'm like,
oh my god. And and then the response is she is not ship,
she's like perfect or whatever. I'm like, okay, well I disagree
with that. However, I'm kidding. Uh so I write that's not what
I meant at all, And I don't know why my phone did that.
So now I can't I often cannot ducking awful Bill, Yeah, I can't
think, so he calls me, laughing off his ass. I couldn't believe
I did this. I was so embarrassed. Now here's the thing. I
can never remember her name, so Ill, that's how you referred to her
to Kevin, I refer to her as ship me okay, which which is
terrible, Which is I mean, you should never refer to another human piece
of me. That's all I did, and never was that anyway. Things
just got out of control. So so there you go. So she'll be
on tell us to tell us what she knows about what's happening, what's happening
in in webster, in webster about that and everybody so Kevin. Uh should
I get you know what? I'll hand out my this one is for oh,

you say? I said, I said, I'm surprised you to have Doug
coming tonight. Why would I have done on Tuesday? I have? I
know you like Doug. I guess you know what I like. I'm going
to tell you this. You show, Yes, he does. Uh he
does. Years ago though, when I was switching a radio station, there
was somebody who I really think has got a brilliant mind when it comes to
everything in life. And this person, uh said, you know what it
should be? You and friends, no partner, blah blah blah. And
I'm like, hey, we're doing this. Not everybody can commit to this,
so we just have different people different nights, right, And I like
it that way. You can come, you can come, if you can't,
you can't. Fridday's a spice of life, Billy, That's what I
say. And I like the mainstay right here, that's the mainstay. But
I'll you know, so if we were a mafia, you'd be the godfather
Kevin and I like Coppo's yeah, okay, then from there, next in
command Okay, I'm in the next in commander. Both of you like Scott
That means Mark killman's like a street soldier. Absolutely. I love this from
Danny killed it, killed that, they killed the dog. I killed the
nog from Danny from that you brought in here. I apologize Mary Christmas.
I only kill that. I killed the other cream brandy you had here the
other night. Son of them. Yeah, I just sat here drinking.
I've been this and I put on more weight. I can see it in
my face and everything didn't then went to the blue Blue. I was standing
to Kevin earlier this Christmas season for whatever I used to never understand. We're
here about, you know, the blue holidays. People get depressed, blah
blah blahlah blah. Excuse me. Uh, I'm like, who the fuck
we can get depressed at Christmas, happiest time of the year. Couldn't wait
to get my gifts. I'm at a certain age now. I don't have
my kids around, I don't have any like, I don't know where I
fit anymore. I don't know where I fit because I don't have my kids,
I don't have a spouse, I don't have anybody really, And I'm
like, where, where where do I fit in this whole game? And
I was telling him and I go. This has been a little rough one
for me. Jesus, I thank god the shotgun didn't come in for me.
Holy shit. Well I got a gift for you that's coming. That's
gonna help you for twenty twenty four. All right, awesome, can't wait?
Well, I know what it is. What's that? I gotta fucking
know what it is? Okay, go ahead. I might allowed to say.
Yeah, you went and got the big ass calendar, didn't you.
Oh no, all right, he said helpful. Oh gosh, you know
what now I said about twenty twenty four, and I know week you wanted
to know about. This is this is a media calendar. This this is
something I think you got to read it. But it's gonna be helpful from
a guy I really respect. Okay, it's the Bible from this is nice?
It isn't. It isn't. It's the who's that priest that he loves
priest? God loves you. It's not gonna be brother love. No,
it's not. Uh So that was the So that that That's how I've been
just the holidays, it has been like it's been tough this year. First
of all, it has some weird things. The last several years. If
you've noticed, Thanksgiving was right before December. This past year, it went
back because the last Thursday it can't have the last Thursday of November cannot be
Thanksgiving too, So it went back to a week prior, right, so
now you had an extra week. Almost on top of that, it hasn't
really snowed. I mean it snowed the last couple of days. People really
aren't in the Christmas mood. The economy's kind of sucked. A lot of
people got laid off this year. People are waiting for like impending doom.
Uh. You know, mortgage rates are through the roof right now, inflations
through the roof. I think it's been a tough year for people, and
they're still spending. And I think they know that they're afraid it's going to
catch up with them. Uh, that very well could be. I don't
know. I was just thinking more from an emotional thing. When I was
looking at my life, I go, oh shit, how am I a
happy one of the three here? When I was when I when I missed
people yelling at my children around the holidays, that it's not me yelling,
it's other people, I go, I was charming, And what happened.
At the time, I'm like, God, damn, that's annoying. Now
I go, it's kind of charming. I can colimborate them if you want.
Me and Daniel just take care of charge to put the shot put up
higher. Good. Uh so that was just my thing. It's just like
it's been at us. Well, yeah, you got us. No,
seriously, I'm trying to help them. Dan agree. I agree. I
think Kevin gets worried like Kevin. Uh. You know when when everything started
and Kevin was one of the first people I talked to about doing the podcast,
and Kevin said to me, he goes man, you said it awful
the other night. I thought you were going to jump off to bridge or
something. I was like, no, I just you know, I've forgotten
that from you. You've always no it was it was. It was right
when he used well we put it this way when we work together. There
were some dark times in your life, okay, and they would seem to
call in at about seven o'clock every morning, maybe sometimes seven thirty, like
different situations in your life that would happen. You were so calm and cool
about it, or me if that were me and you made a comment about
Danny'd be on the ceiling. Yeah, Well because you can't though, because
that's that's always my thing, and it's just no. But it's way easier
to say than to do. I truly believe that our point in life is
to be happy. And I know that sounds weird. What is because everybody
goes, well, what's the purpose in life? What's didn't the thing?
I was reading about a new movie that Adam Sandler's doing, where he's a
spaceman or something. Yeah, but it's supposed to be almost looking at your
life in the macro and what does it all mean? And everybody's going,
what's the meaning in life? I think your whole purpose here is to be
happy. I think that all these ideas that we put on ourselves of if
we sacrifice, we didn't know. I think when you die the heaven,
it's the release of everything, every restriction that you had on yourself, every
bit of resistance, everything is gone, it's gone, it's over. Fat.
Well, my point is, why can't you live that way? Now?
You can? So you got to stop putting out. But we need,
we need all the things that get in our way a little bit to
show us what we want what we don't want, right, That's what it
is. And I think that that's an important part of life. It's an
ugly thing where we get, but you don't need to stay in that treadmill.
And a lot of times when we go through, you know, we
punish ourselves. We've been conditioned, in the human condition to feel guilt about
certain things and feel bad about certain things. And you know, always it
was a philosopher that I had spent a lot of time with who once said,
you know, I was very much against uh, pretty pre cohabitating before
marriage, right, And his conclusion in this was, if love is the
purest thing, if love is the purest, most wonderful white light we can
have is love, then there's nothing bad in love. And if this is
two people who love each other, and then there's nothing bad here. That
was his conclusion. And I always kind of held on to that, and
I thought, sure, there's nothing, there's no all the guilt we carry
like there's people who would be because you've been conditioned, I shouldn't you shouldn't
have sex before marriage, you shouldn't do this. And I think that that
may be less and less today, Okay, but you can carry that,
but maybe that's not real, maybe that's wrong, and maybe we need to
put that down. And if it's just too people that genuinely love each other,
then go with that. And there's nothing wrong. There's no wrong in
that. And I think a lot of times we get conditioned a certain way
in the human element and a lot of that stuff, I mean a lot
of the Bible and things have been interpreted by man to control I think,
to control people. I do. I think. You know, look,
government's changed. You know, the country where most of my family has come
from was divided because a king changed religions control people, and that it's absolutely
not it's intent, absolutely not. It's intent. I agree with that.
Yes, well it was defined, yes, And to teach you that it's
all right here. You can have anything, you can be your do or
have anything you want. You just have to fully believe. And the one
thing is faith, and that's our biggest tripping point. It is faith in
anything. Faith in that something's gonna work, faith and that it's gonna work
out. Faith in that everything always works out for me. Whatever that is
faith, and that's when you have to have and you got to stay on
that end of of of belief on this end you've got I don't have it,
I need it. I gotta have it by by mistake, stuck there,
or the other is, hey, you know what, things are going
pretty good for me. This is all right, and you can just start
slowly feeling bye. We talk about it's called putting on the full arm of
God. You got it. But the only part that's not covered is from
your knees to your feet, because that's where you're supposed to spend on your
knees praying to God. So that's how that's how you do it. Okay,
So little philosophy there, little from Jesus. A little different. Sorry,
Kenn's already end of the drinking to read his book over there. He's
like, I got the Emi Williams in the book. This is awesome,
Beth Hopes. You like the hats. The hats are really really cool.
They're very stuck. They're going to keep you warm. Yeah. I like
it. Nuclear colors because the color green is a good one. Yeah,
and so I'm a fan. Could and you could look if I'm Saint Patrick's
day of this year, if it's wearing that, there you go. It
will be. It will be because it's not cold now, it'll stay cold
in May. We'll take a moment. When we come back, we'll talk
to Peter Montemerno, who has watched the all twenty two of the Buffalo Bills.
I said to Dan, who you watch the all twenty two as well?
I don't watch it all twenty two. I watched a thirty minute recap
of the game, so I said to Dan, nearly a flawless game for
the Buffalo Before the word Buffalo Bill's got out of my movie. I don't
know about that. Okay, I get it. I get it. No,
it wasn't bad that you saw things that maybe I clearly didn't. And
we'll see what Peter has to say. We will get to that next.
But I want to tell you about Cobblestone on Maine. I was out there.
Well, the whole thing is like when you walk in, it's such
a they haven't decorated for the holidays. It's like perfectly and I saw Dan
bresnahand the owner, and I go, clearly, you didn't do this,
and his daughter pops out of nowhere and goes, no, of course not.
She's like me and my mother. But the place is so well appointed.
The food. I had the bacon cheddarburger and it was just perfect because
they put the onions underneath on the bun and so with like when you bite
into it, it's got oh god, it's the sauteed onions. I loved
it. They know what they're doing. I prefer chips over fry, so
I had the chips. Chips were great, and then you just have just
this sounds weird, but like the clientele, everybody kind of rises up to
the environment. They're in a happy, fun, upscale environment. That's what
you're gonna find a Cobblestone on Maine. They were having live music there tonight.
They have a great cocktail menu for the holidays and even winter cocktails.
You get some great craft beer, and then if you were looking for intimate
dining, they have that. And they have a private partying room you can
rent out downstairs. A lot of people waiting maybe to have the company holiday
party because things get very busy before the holidays. They still have some dates
available in January if you want to do that. You can go to Cobblestone
on main dot com. They're at one o nine West Main Street in the
village of Webster. It is Cobblestone on Maine. Paul Connors and Paramis have
two six to two comp today Mac of All Trades. As we come to

part of was with at Wrong Collective Soul. I was a great interview.
That's when I turned into a fanboy later on. They have more. Collective
Soul has more hits from the nineties than any other band really, any of
the rock banders did not know Over Pearl Jam, Over Smashy Popkins, think
about hitters from the nineties, Chili Pepper's Metallica. Good for them. Yeah,
a great guy. There's great guys and uh, really likable, Like
I I could have sat and talked to these guys all day. Yeah,
they're they're good guys. It was uh, and I'll spend time with the
two. Yeah, man, like they grateful. They don't see yes or
grateful. I would even say, yeah, I guess appreciative of your investment
in their art. Like we were Record Archive. They were doing a thing
there, Yeah, on a Saturday, and it was we hung out and
just my kids hung with them. They were chooting the ship with my kids.
They were cool with my kids and Google dolls. I think it's a
lot of it's that they just don't see a lot of kids. Oh see,
yeah, sure they see a lot of Google kids were screwing what they
were The busting Sam's balls was hilarious. That's funny, that's good. The
uh so, I wanted to tell this and then we'll call uh Peter.
So I get a message from somebody, So, anybody remember the website when
Stephanie first started coming on the podcast. Do you remember the website that she
had mentioned? You got it? Well? Yeah, are we dating the
same guy? Rochester? Doc? Facebook? Facebook? Facebook? So I
get a Facebook message from somebody and it's my Facebook profile picture and it's on
the Are we dating the same guy Rochester? And it says spill the tea
or red flags on there? And I don't respond to it. And then
another message comes from the person and that sort of elicits like a something about
the show. So I write back and then I go, all right,
now I'm curious. I go, who doctored the photo? Because I'm not
dating anybody and I'm not on any dating websites. And this person like,
no, it's it's on there. I have a friend who lives in Hilton
who's on this site and saw your picture and sent me the thing. And
I go, you gotta find out because so underneath there's like there's two you
know that shocked faced emoji like surprise to surprise than one comment. So I
go, So now I don't want to know, but I want to know
because here's the truth. I'm not I'm not I'm not on any dating websites.
I'm not out anywhere. You can't go anywhere and find out any I'm
not doing anything, do you know what I mean? Somebody told you on
Christian Mingo. Huh, I was told you were on Christian Mingo and Jay
Day. I don't even know what those are. So this person goes and
comes back and sends me a screenshot of the only comment, and the comment
is this woman, and she writes, I don't listen to a show anymore?
Is he still married? And I'm like okay. So I was like
good because somebody I did not put certainly I can't get on there. I'm
not dating anybody. So I have a feeling I know what's up here.
Oh I think it's somebody. That's why I think somebody's trying to find out
am I dating? Yes, somebody's fishing and stuff. And you're not gonna
fly have Monimalna. You're not gonna find anything. But I go, but
at the same time, well, who knows what someone you could write anything
on there and then fuck someone's whole world up in a way. But then
I'm like, oh, why do I give a fuck? You fucking my
world? It's already so fucked up, there's nothing right. But I thought
that was too honest to get our crack back off of staff on it.
No, I don't because I'm afraid that if if it's the crack the crack
back off of staff that I'm thinking of, they would certainly do what I
would do and go, oh my god, smallest dick in the world,
you know, So I would write is the comment. If I saw one
of you assholes on there, I knew, and I'm like, I just
you know what it is. It's like, it's somebody doing something. It
bothered me for honestly, I'm going to give you the the length of time,
and this is real length, three minutes and forty five seconds. It
bugged me, and then I was like, give a fuck because but once
I figured out, Okay, this is clearly somebody trying to find out and
on me, and I think I know why, and I think I know
who, and it doesn't matter. Does it go back to a letter that
was written a letter? No, I don't know. That's a that's a
weird thing. That's and then I think that's I think I found animal of
burden. That's right. I should you know, Kevin and I were talking
about over the holidays because I ran the Charlie Fitzsimmons one because I decided to
go to the game that I don't have any new stuff. But maybe we'll
run some best ofs next week, some of the things, and maybe we'll
go back to the letter. Letter of part one and letter part two would
be funny. Yeah, I got these letters like every time we get to
a dramatic point in the reading to drop. It was weird, but I
showed you guys, it's real. I wrote letters to my house, like
I think I know who it is, your bill. I think that there
was one night that person who wrote the letters showed up in this studio.
I was here alone late at night. I got a message, are you
where are you at your studio? And I wrote back stupidly yeah, And
then all of a sudden, like within twenty minutes, the door opens up.
Yeah, and I'm like, I want to make sure, like there's
lights and windows and the cops are right there, and so no, and
I don't even have to see what you fucking wrote. I answers, no,
answers, No, oh yeah, did I not know that already?
Did I not say? It was not? It was? That was another
weird thing. Like, there's so much weird shit that has happened over the
past year that I cannot I cannot talk about. I just can't. I
would love to, but I can't. Come on it. Yes, yes,
lady's pointing to the Buffalo Bill logo on her jacket outside the studio,
was why is he bleeding? No, there's so many things I can't talk
about, all right, Well, only because you would you sohos know the
story? Yes, yeah, but I can't talk about it. I got
dan Ken, I got the nobody can but the I would love to be
able to talk about that, but so apparently I'm on that that Facebook page.
You know, that's actually kind of a compliment in a way. Well,
no, it's somebody trying to do a little recon Yeah, it's somebody
trying to go uh huh uh, Billy Boner is out on the town anywhere
but home here home. Somebody else that came in here for Doug Phelps's fort.
Somebody, somebody came in here last night after the show, Yes,
and wanted to make sure And I will tell you off air. Uh that
well he said hello to you, yeah to me yep okay ye from a
radio pass Yes, yes, okay, And uh, I don't want to
the only reason I'm not going to say it is I don't want to make
their life difficult. Not difficult, but just me though. No, it's
not that it's the person. If I say the person's name, other people
go, oh, well were they doing at the bill of fied studio packers
packing one hundred percent? With the small minded, narrow dicked assholes that run
that business? Come on, man, where they go for Chinese food or
Chinese billion? Is the same name I wrote earlier? No it is not.
Yeah, that'd be weird. No it is not. I wrote that
pretty good back. Did he did? Man? Yeah, exactly what you
had there? All right, let's call Peter Montemerno and find out what's happening.
Then the all twenty two. Uh. I want to thank Peter because
I know he's had little kids, and Peter in their mind sounded like he
was flying the plane offs. I'm like, hey, do you think he's
on? Uh, he might be putting the kids, might be a diaper
duty. Yeah, no, hang on, no, he's no, he's
he's available. All right, Well, god damn it, Dennis. Okay,
there's Peter. There's Peter. He was driving. Okay, I'm driving
right now. I'll see your message. What I get where I'm going?
Oh? Is he driving right now? I don't know? Pete. Peter,
Yo, are you okay to talk? I don't want to catch you
if you're driving. I am okay to talk. Bill. It's out for
that bridge, so I said, okay, more than okay. Do you
still have a company car from the last time I do? Dan? Yeah?
Yeah, Dan, Are you don't have it? Peter had a Mercedes
from his company. He went went, good, Yeah, that's fine,
pretty well. Yeah, what kind of Mercedes? Low end Mercedes? Now
talking about he got he like had free parking at the PGA Championship and all
this stuff. That's awesome. Yeah, I like that they give you.
Mercedes. Was not the company car? Oh it was mal never mind.
The Mercedes had a mile of Corkay, it's still nice driving eighty six es.
Cart might be nice and hell together by black duct tape, only because
it blends in Peter I said to Dan the other day, and Dan,
and before I even got the words out of my mouth, disagreed with me.
But I said, the Bills played a nearly flawless game against the Cowboys,
and now Dan disagreed. I have not seen the all twenty two.
I was at the game, and I only say that because you don't see
as well as you do on television. I had no idea until I got
home about the Stefan Diggs fumble that and then I heard about that there was
a glitch in the stadium so they couldn't show the replay, and that's why
it wasn't challenged by the Cowboys, even though the Bills rushed to the line
of scrimmage, which is usually a dead giveaway. By the way, on
FanDuel I took the over and lost two hundred dollars on m No, no
Greg saying the F word in a game, because they did so well.
It was at twelve and a half. There was only four, so you
know there was a stadium glitch. It was the stadium. That's what they
That's what I was told now again, I wasn't aware of any of that
being in the stadium. You just you're not catching all that, right,
But did you did you think it was nearly a flaw that we won penalty?
No? I did not. I mean I've said this before, bell
I said this week one against the Jets when they lost nothing. As ever,
when you watch the tape, nothing is ever as good as it seems,
and nothing is ever as bad as it seems. But you know,
the Bills played a good game. Was it flawless? No? No,
it wasn't flawless, But I mean James Cook was as close to flawless as
as you can get. And Joe Brady was really good with the game plan.
And what what made me? When I'm comparing the way Joe Brady is
calling games versus the previous o c Eric Dorsey calling games, I think it's
night and day. I think it's night and day. I think he's Joe
Brady's calling a game and Dorsey was calling plays. Comparison, that that's the
comparison. There was a plan in place. Yeah, there's almost someone's look
at the macrol and someone's look at the microL what's the next play with?
And there and how on the big picture. Yeah, they're putting. They're
putting like Joe Brady was putting defenders in conflict against the Cowboys. And when
I say that, I mean look at Michael Parsons. One of the things
that a lot of teams say, it's the old adage in football, you
know, run the ball at the strongest player of the defense, make him
beat you. They didn't do that, But what they did was they they
left him unblocked for several plays, and they forced him to stop his feet
momentarily in the NFL, that's that's a lifetime. So he couldn't pursue down
the line of scrimmage, so they always run away from him. But they
left him unblocked because he has to stop and worry is something coming back my
way and I can't commit all the way down the line of scrimmage. Then
they could come back around me. And then the offensive coaches for the Bills
are watching how he reacts to those plays, so they can continue playing the
same player, running the same side, or depending up on how he reacts
to those plays, let's come back around him because he's not doing his one
eleven. So Micah Parsons was was put in conflict a lot during that game,
and you know, they it's as if they were playing with ten defenders
eight to ten times during the game. On Sunday, was it was it
was a really good, good game plan by Joe Brady. Yeah, I
thought they. I mean, we haven't seen that kind of running game out
of Buffalo, and a lot of people said Thurman Thomas, Yeah, like
that was the that was the conception. So Thurman Thomas the offensive line coach
at that time and then later the offensive coordinator I believe was Dan Bresnahan's dad.
The owner of Tom bred is Dan Bresdahan's dad. Yes, I didn't
know that Dan Bresnahan. That I never knew Damn. Dan Bresdahan is the
owner of Cobblestone on Maine. He's still alive, Tom he is, he's
still they lost those four Super Bowl He has some health issues. Uh you
know that he's Dan has been very involved with things with his father. But
his father was at least the offensive line coach during that time, and he
was there when March and Broda left to take the coach job. I think
came up No. The second after the first Super Bowl Marchibroda went to Indianapolis,
and so then Tom Bresdahan took over the play calling with Jim Schaffner and
the quarterbacks coach the Super Bowls to through four. That was him, That
was Dan's dad. Yeah wow, or it is wasn't he one of the
wasn't he one of the coaches? Dan that got in the fist fight?
He got to fist fight with Nick Nicolau. Yeah, they got they got
a fist fight. Yeah, they got to a fist fight training camp or
practice was something because the defen because Nikola was coaching the defense and like they're
getting too rough in practice. They got to a fistfight. Oh yeah,
it made the news. I think, oh yeah, wow, yeah,
that was uh yeah, that's Dan Bresidhan's old man. How about that?
But the Therman Thomas analogies and I had to stop myself. I mean,
I said it myself, but I think I text and this is I said,
wait a minute, Okay, Thurman's a Hall of Famer. He won
an MVP. What I was meaning is I think a lot of people meant
was the dual threat that Thurman was that position in years and now you have
the confidence now you have an offensive coordinator and a quarterback that are on the
same page, and you see it. You see as clear as day as
to how they're meaningfully putting his his abilities into the game plan significantly. Yeah.
Well, look it looked great and it was different for Buffalo. I
loved what Josh said after the game, but I disagree. I don't think
he was the student who didn't participate. I think he was a big part
of that offense. Oh yeah, a couple of runs, some great throws,
and certainly I have to say, sitting up a little higher in the
stadium, I bit on some of those fakes where he was running one way
with the ball and I didn't realize he had even handed it off. So
you know, he's a big part of all that. And I thought the
overall yes to your point. Obviously, now we can say great move.
I thought it immediately, and oh we got to wait a game. We
got to wait a game, and I don't know. So I'm like,
well, look pretty good to me. And then the next week, and
then the next week and the next week. We've seen a great offensive play
so far, right, Yeah, And Josh is a he is a significant
of the game. Just being in her center. Yeah, before he takes
can't tell what this guy is gonna do. No, nope, no.
But now now you have that and the whole other dimension of the game with
you know, now a play action is really a play action when you have
a running game like this. Uh, charges are in for it. But
you know, we'll see how they prepare after they have a new coach and
they went through hell last week when they fired to LESCo and their head coach,
so h uh called them san Diego again. But Los Angeles, Los
Angeles, everybody does. They're like a they're like a team with they're like
a team without a city. It's me. It's me that we're tired every
East as well. After his performance, An, I don't uh, yeah,
what's going to happen there? I mean, it gives a lot of
credence to your your Belichick rumor that you're laid on this last week or yeah,
I think I think that's going to happen. I think that's going to
happen the last day after the Monday, after the last day of the regular
season. I think I think you're going to see that that trigger pulled and
they have to do it. Quickly, right. I mean these teams,
this is why they do it. The first day after the last day of
the year. They got to start working on the draft, they got to
start working on personnel, they got to start working on coaching staff. So
you'll see this in January. It's my prediction you'll see Belichick the head coach
and GM of of the Chargers. I will say this, he should not
do that. Well, because you're Belichick. No, I get that,
I get that. Put Peter in there as the GM. Well, nos,
that are surfacing right now. He signed for Belichick. If it takes
to if you start to see a delay in the January afterward, well,
actually the season extents. So it might be Jim Harball from Michigan. That's
another possibility because he has a history with the Chargers organization. And the other
one now is Mike Tomlin possibly leaving Pittsburgh. Yes, no way, going
to the Chargers stop real that would be a big that's interesting. That would
be a way more shocking move to me than Belichick. The Harbaugh the Harbor
angle is interesting because there's some negative reports that came out again today about him
about him meeting with with Rekurts during COVID week or COVID blackout period. Some
just came out of the Detroit Free Press about that. So who knows what
that's going to mean for him in Michigan? Well could they? They keeps
spreading again, he keeps witting. Yeah, they need to keep him on
the right. He's the coach of the year. He didn't even coach at
seven games they won. I think that tomlin one would be more interesting to
me because what is he the third head coach of the Steelers organization? Yeah,
he's only but the third head coaches Chuck No And then has any other
Steelers coach gone after the Steelers and coached somewhere else? Uh No, I
don't think no. Noel like coached and retired. Yeah, cow heard went
to the booth? What to the what to the So there's a story about
Cower. Ralph Wilson offered Cower fifteen million dollars a year to coach the Bills
and he said no, and his wife was dying of cancer at that point.
Okay, but I mean, but he didn't never did that. He
just never came back, never coaching again. So this would be a this
would be sort of historic in the Pittsburgh end of things. Now before before,
before Chuck, No, they had a revolving door coach. They were
terrible. They were lovable losers. Uh, Pittsburgh until the seventies, they
were they were awful. They were just a fun team. Like, but
you're going over fifty years have only three head coaches. Yeah, that's a
long time. It's a long time. You forget how long he the current
coach has been there with the Steelers. So yeah, yeah, that's I
mean you're talking almost twenty years. Yeah, nineteen years. So that's uh,
maybe it's time for a tradition. There's a tradition there. Yeah,
all the same thing with I think it's him Carolyn Belichicker the three longest tenured
coaches. Is it really how long has Carol been in Seattle? Bush had
his He's been taken away. I love that win the other night, Peter,
come on you to watch my gosh, that was incredible, Come on,
Peter, which a lot lock out of the the out of the end,
you had a love Drew Locke's answer at the end talking to him,
he goes, hey, man, these guys came in and he's talking and
he's saying things that I don't think anybody ever thinks about He goes, I
have a you know, you get a different quarterback back there, and all
these guys stepped up and rallied around. It's a different spin on the ball,
right, Gino Smith has won, He's got a different because we just
had you just have different styles. Everybody's got a different way of doing it.
But these guys came in and I went, well, I didn't even
think of that. Sure, Like, I'm not used to it. All
it takes is it's it's minutia, but it's minutia. Is the difference between
winning and losing it teams? You know, well, no, it's a
it's a good point. As we talk about Belichick and now everybody the NFL
seems to be doing it. But way back in the day, Belichick would
only employ a left footed punter. And the reason why he did it is
because the ball spins differently when it's when it's coming down to the returner.
Forces that returner who's practicing in practice all the time, agains the right foot
to have to make an adjustment. It's a different spin. Great idea,
right, just those little intricacies of the game you have to force the player
to adjusting. And now a lot of NFL teams employee left footed punters.
So I think Belichick started that trend. Little thing like that New England,
Kevin. Yeah, that's probably the other think Belichick would tell his players is
that to match your gloves with the color of the jerseys of the team you're
playing, because that way holding you can't see it. You can't pull that
jersey, you can't see it. Yeah. I'm always amazing and always and
always, and I love this about him. Whenever they're down at the goal
line, he tells his d line, always anticipate the snap count because if
you're off, where's the ball going an inch? Always anticipate the snapcount.
Try to get a better jump because you never know. You could blow it
up. It could be a fumble. But if you get a penalty,
who cares, then the ball's moving an inch. So true, little things,
little tiny thing, Yeah, boy, that it is. And that's
the difference between winning and losing a lot of times speaking and winning and losing.
I'm assuming you like the Buffalo Bills against the LA Chargers. I do.
I do, Bill, But this is I think we're at a point
here where no I mean, I just now now, I wonder, right,
so were they motivated by Tyler Dunn's article. If they were, they
were, they were motivated by the wrong thing. And does it carry over
to the Chargers. Do the Bills lay an egg go into a quote unquote
big city against the team they should be and we've seen it happen this year
already. They lose to these teams they should not be losing to Pats Jets,
you know. And what's really frustrating if they win just that Denver game,
if they win that Denver game or that New England game, they have
everything. They're playing what they call they control their own destiny. They if
they just win one of those two games, they control their own destiny because
then they would be and if Miami went out, then they would be facing
Miami in the last game with one less loss in Miami. But if they
beat them, they're tied, and then the Bills win the division. So
that that deck gets frustrating. And I hope those are the types of things
that mosttivate them more than an article. So it's very interesting to say,
because the Chargers are really reeling. They're not in the playoffs, they have
nothing to play for. So let's see if Buffalo shows up or plays down
to the level of competition. Well, I'm hoping they show up because I
mean it, certainly it was a lot of fun to see, uh Sunday
afternoon. But who knows. It is a short week, it is a
long trip. It is win and I but the way I'm looking at and
I keep hearing it over and over again, and I would agree with it.
The most dangerous team right now are the Buffalo Bills. And if the
playoffs were to be decided today, they're not even in. But yeah,
they're not decided today. Yeah, yeah, I mean they are a dangerous
team. There's no question they And they're playing well right now, the past
two weeks they're they're playing well. They should have won the Eagles game.
But you know, there's there's things that we've talked about it. I'm not
gonna we visit that game right now, but yeah, they are, They're
very dangerous. Is the dangerous football team right now the Buffalo Bills. And
and that's good, But I also said that a couple of weeks ago.
We're going to have the narrative that the Bills are the gosh, they're dangerous
and they're because I don't think they're going to make the playoffs. That's my
personal belief. I hope they do. I want them to. I'm rooting
them. I'm rooting for them to get in. For me to be wrong.
But I keep hearing this narrative it's starting out. I mean, that's
the nicest of heart. Knocks them out prepared. I'm not coming on the
show that. I'm not coming on the show if they lose, If they
lose the Patriot, I'm out eight season. Well, Peter, I think
all the stuff that you have contributed this past season has been fantastic. And
I know with the kids and stuff, it's it's tough. It's not always
easy to I appreciate that. My wife, my wife thanks you as well,
and I promise you she will be on the show before the year's out.
Well, the Lions and Lion stuff is interesting because you know they've had
that, you know, up and down themselves a little bit here, you
know, losing games that I didn't think they were going to lose. I
really didn't, and then once that they seem to come back and win,
and I went and I watched the very the It is so well done.
And I loved and you love his whole attitude of never was in it for
the accolades or the awards. Only big wardy one of them was the two
thousand yard season. That was important to him. But I get that.
I mean he would think, right, yeah, uh, certainly competitive,
never ever mailing it in and never doing I mean, we see celebrations now
where the whole team comes down and there're somebody's rolling, or they're doing this,
or there was practically a pyramid in the end zone. What the hell
they're doing? And this he would just hand the ball to the ref was
there was nothing, There was just hand the ball, and there was something
about that, and I felt like an old man with my old man curmudgeony
things. I really appreciated guy like that. But I really did, because
I go, I don't get some of these celebrations that. I mean,
look, I would say if I were if I scored a touchdown in the
NFL, I'm kissing everybody in the fucking stands. That looks it looks impossible
to me to do that. It just looks nearly impossible. So you do
it. I I think that's great. But the way he did it and
went about it, and it was consistent. It was never there was never
a change, There was never anything. And only one year they get to
the NFC Championship. Yeah right, that's right, and the last team to
knock out the Cowboys before the Cowboys went on that run years later and you
go, boy, it's too bad that they didn't. You know, other
guys started to leave and you could see where the team and and then when
he walked away. I found it very interesting, Peter, since you saw
it. Where boy, we I say on I've said on the podcast,
we hold our athletes to a higher standard than we do our politicians. And
people said, he owes us more than that. Who is he to just
walk away? What does he think he's doing? Just walking away faxing in
his retirement. This is ridiculous. Didn't he drive the training camp and just
say yes, screw him to go home. I don't know. I don't
think that. I think he had somebody. I think there were several drafts
of a retirement letter. He faxed it over and then he was going to
England. The press found out. They met him at the airport on his
way to England for a couple of days and in the documentary, he goes
with his four sons and explains, yeah, and he explained though why he
yeah, it really was, and why he did it, and he said,
look, I just it wasn't there anymore for me. We weren't going
to get anywhere as a team, and I just had I was done.
And I thought, well, yeah, if somebody walked away from Kodak,
if you walked away from Peterson Insurance, if you walked away, I think
most people go fuck smart, move beat, you know, you know what
I'm saying, I do. I think people would be much more empathetic.
But because this guy was really Detroit had put their hopes and dreams on Barry
Sanders, and that that was I think part of the reason why. And
we're so invested, and I go, boy, there it is. We
We expect more from our athletes than our politicians. And this guy just had
a gift to do something that many, many, many cannot so fast a
gift. It's a gift that we'll never We'll never. I don't think we'll
ever see a guy like that in that position ever again. And Dan,
you've got to watch it. You'll love it. You know. What really
struck me was how they were he was avoiding an interview draft day, yes,
and how he called out Patrick and really the entire media astounding. It
was an unbelievable answer, no shouting, just talking very monotone and called him
out. I was that was amazing. Well, so d Dan Patrick says,
I have a relationship with him, and so you know, you know
Danny from being in media. If okay, Dann, we're gonna come to
you live and you've got Barry Sanders, he's going to be the number one
overall pick or wherever he's going in the draft, top top five or three.
Uh. He he agreed to come do the interview and they couldn't find
him. And so you know, Dan Patrick's standing there at one point,
has to do it and he's getting basically chewed out, you know. And
but what did Barry say to him? Because you're right, it was it
was one of the most mature for someone that age to say, this is
basically a private moment, or yeah, you all really don't care about what
us sir me, No one really cares about me what my needs are something
I'm paraphrasing obviously, but it was it was all this is sensationalism. And
that's not what I'm about. This isn't caring about things that nobody really cares
about. You all care about it, I don't people that follow me down
something of that, some along those lines. But the way he said was
incredibly mature of seeing what was important in life versus what was not. He
knew that all the hype around here, Yeah, it was like it was
like all the hype around him, all the hype around you know whatever.
So many yard seasons and all other than the two thousand yard seasons, A
thousand yard seasons amazing right as a rookie especially, he didn't want any of
that stuff and didn't want to be MVP because it was short lived. And
to be truthful, it's recognition of what you've done, not what you're doing,
and not what you're about to do. You may not do it again.
And then what right? Right? And then what and he Jeff Daniels
may no, what did Jeff Daniels is in the documentary? What did he
say? He made a great analogy about how Barry Sanders how he is on
the field versus off the field, and Jeff Daniels is a great actor.
He is said people only live for the action in cut moments, and I
live he said, he personally lives between. He lives for action and cut.
Everything else's noise. Yeah, I mean, he goes, I really
don't matter. I don't care about anything else. And Barry Sanders plays and
lives for the games, the beginning of the game, in the end of
the game. That was it. That was his passion. Everything else is
really not important. And I think at one point it might have been.
It might have been draft day because he's in the same draft as Dion Sanders.
Oh that was a wild draft night draft. I think he said in
it, like, I, you know, I'm not Dion, but I
could use a little bit of that, like basically that kind of showmanship because
I don't have it, because that's like gold lemon jacket. Oh yeah,
let me be the best. And Dion, you know, backed up most
of what he's such a great draft the eighty nine draft. It was so
by the way, funny story. Aikman went first, Sanders went third.
You know, do you remember what second? Green Bay took a guy named
Tony Manderich who used a ton of steroids in college. He was supposed to
and they called him the sports oil trade later called him the incredible bust.
Now had they chosen Barry Sanders. They eventually traded a few years later for
Brett Farv oh Man. Can you imagine that team with Brett favor Barry Sanders.
Oh, he'd get a Super Bowl? You might have a few.
Yeah, you know so, But interesting time marches on. How about how
about just did Barry's college life? Oklahoma State? A backfield that has both
Thrman Thomas and Barry Sanders back Yeah, right, And the fact that his
father, his father would always go he was the third best running back.
Yeah, Jim Brown and himself and himself. Oh okay, oh yeah,
Barry Sanders dad very I don't know what his name was. Was a Barry
senior, He's not junior. Whatever it was. He just said, remember
what it was? He said, And I think it's some induction thing.
And Barry just rolled with it like I would start to bank you after a
while, like come on, man, I'm doing stuff that you never got
a chance. I thought he was an Earl Campbell guy's father, But okay,
no, he read Jim Brown was his number one Guy Brown? Ok
Yeah, Jim Brown? Ye? Well great, great, Dan go home
and watch it tonight. It's excellent. Yeah, that's excellent. A cool
Peter, thank you, Merry Christmas, Christmas beat Merry Christmas, guys.
And I appreciate again having me on the show and delivering a little bit every
week. Let me ask you this real quick, if I could, I
appreciate all the things you guys talk about during the week. And I was
listening to the other day and I wanted to know because I had an argument
with someone earlier and not my wife, just someone else. Uh, A
debate about if you're opening a Christmas gift or any gift really, but let's
use Christmas because of the time of the year, and you actually say what
the gift is verbally it means you do not like that gift. Opened the
gift tube sock, Oh tube sock? You know wow? Okay said it
the way I was gonna say. It's not so much what you say with
the gift is it's the expression before the gift. If it's oh tube socks,
then I know you hated it. But if you went damn a Bill's
ticket or you know, personal Sea license af like that would be I think
it's different. Beth. I don't know if it's so much about the saying
the gift. But you dropped the oh, and that was the first thing
I was thinking. If I got to, oh, tube socks, then
you know it's bad. So I think there's a little talent in it.
That would be my answer. But I that's good. Okay, yeah,
I think it's don't you know, Danny, I think, oh, a
book, yeah I got if you don't say oh, and you say a
book, yeah, book? Yeah? No, No, if it's a
book, you give the you yelled the title, oh yeah, the Bible?
Cool? Or you know, like, oh, the Tony Robbins awaken
the giant within? Thank you? Oh you open it up and before you
even see it, you just go, thanks, uncle Dan, What do
you get? You a Bible? They know it's coming. I'm still I'm
still of the persuasion that it's it's you hate the gifts. But okay,
you know, I think you're right, though. The inflection is important.
What did your wife get your favor birthday that you didn't like? We're all
friends here. She won't listen. Pet did you not get the lexus in
the driveway like the commercials? He did? Yeah, it just didn't help.
It was no big red bow. Yeah, I know, I think
like uh, I think if you went and bought one, Victor Krausho dasy
Brahm gives you the big bow. I think they're supplied with big bows.
Honestly. I know that sounds funny, but I think they are. I
thought that was a Lexis trademark. I don't. I didn't think it was.
I didn't think it was. And the only reason I'm saying that is
I know another dealership that did it, and they weren't Lexus. Maybe,
but I thought they all did it. I didn't know they could be Alex's
trademark. That's a smart thing if they did. Peter, thank you again,
buddy, Thanks guys, Thanks Peter. Christmas. All right, well
and we'll uh, we'll talk to Peter again in twenty twenty four, twenty

a party. I got invited to a uh and somebody's work party. But
they had a party Monday that I got invited to. There is not Connors
and Farris. Actually i'm going as I'm going into someone's date to this party.
Okay. The person I'm going as the I'm the date of my son.
It's his his company work party. That's cool. We date the same
guy weak the same day. Unbelievable. All right, There's a something happened
in Webster and we had this mom on Nicole I believe her last name was
morel Or Morrill, and she was very upset because her daughter, she said,
was attacked by somebody who's transgender. Now there's a big debate throughout the
country. Was it male. It's a male becoming female, so it's a
male, so they have a slight edge. Well, we don't just like
a boy hitting a girl. Let's be fair. So from what we understand,
and we said on the podcast that we felt like there was some pieces
missing to the story, a lot of them. But the mom, the
one the transgender student was allowed to change in the locker room. The girl
came home and told her mom or mom had called the school. The school
asked the student to write a letter an email saying that she was uncomfortable,
and then she addressed the school board as well. Since then, there have
been I guess, a lot of back and forth in things. And then
it seemed like sort of out of the oblivion, I don't like to say
out of the blue, but out of the oblivion. It seemed like they
had some kind of a fight at a Christmas concert and the transgender student and
her mother were both involved in this. Yeah, and this girl's mom,
this woman's daughter, Nicole's daughter was I think she had a head injury as
a result of it, if I recall so. But there was arrest me
there was no anything. So then I heard today and what was said in
here was it sounds like the transgender student may have been sticking up for themselves
after so much bullying and name calling, and that you finally had enough and
you stood up for yourself. Now, you shouldn't be putting your hands on
anybody period. Your mother probably shouldn't be encouraging you in any way to be
putting your hands on somebody. Somebody did report that the mother had put her
hands on one of the other students herself. I don't know. Again,
this is all hearsay, and I don't want to accuse somebody of something that
may not have happened, but they I did hear today that throughout the school
year. Here's just my opinion. I don't know that this is true.
I feel like kids are fairly tolerant. And if some kids said I feel
like transitioning that the other kids are like, all right, okay, you
know, no deal, I think they would be like yeah. I think
today, I think kids just just are always jerks. Well, so,
from what I knew is throughout the year, the kids have been referring to
as this transgender student as she After this stuff has now escalated. They now
will only refer to them by the pronoun he, which is inflammatory. I
mean, it really is right, if that's what's going to happen, you're
only doing that to be an antagonist. And up to this point in the
academic year, from what I've been told, and again even that is hearsay.
Uh that that the program was was she and now it's and it's not
done to be nice. And some parents said, I told, you know,
my kid, don't do that either. Don't interact and say anything.
But if you are going to interact, use the pronoun that they prefer.
Let's leave it at that. It doesn't affect your life. Don't don't don't
escalate. No, there's no point in escalating. This isn't I don't agree
with it, but don't escalate it period. Be kind, right, be
kind exactly you know, and this is this was I don't agree with your
lifestyle choice. Well let me then what Okay, so you know, well
exactly, here's here's where I come down on this. I think this is
a great example. And maybe I'm wrong, but in my opinion, and
again I say, you know, between fact and fiction, and that's the
definition of an opinion halfway. This is an example as to why other countries
have such a tight government and there isn't freedom of a press or or thought
or speech or anything because they don't want to hear your ideas. They don't
want you to running a muck. They want you running your big fat mouths,
deciding that you want penises not want penises. Yeah, all the problems
that come out of it. And that's the great thing about our country.
And one of the things that always bothers me is, well, here many
people talk about freedom, freedom, freedom, and I hope I'm wrong on
this, but I feel like a lot of times the idea of what is
freedom and what is freedom of speech is misconstrued. I think a lot of
people will say things like when someone on private airways, I mean, but
they're government airwaves, but they're owned by a private company. All of a
sudden, that person's why, kid, you have freedom of speech. You
can and you can say it, and you could say it here in an
independent model or really beholden to no one. But when you work for a
company that has to that has a group of investors and a board of directors,
and this is how big they've gotten as a company. They're not gonna
they're not gonna want to lose advertising right, freedom speech on I protect you
was supposed to protect you from getting arrested or fined. Yes, now sometimes,
but when but when we go to a public place like a public school.
This is where we kind of run into a bit of a problem with
this because now, all of a sudden, I'm somebody who I think that
a boy should only be a boy and a girl should only be a girl.
And but this country was founded on basically the freedom of religion. That's
what the Pilgrims came for. It was it was about freedom. It was
about being able to do anything you want. I know it says you know
under God right in the Pledge of Allegiance, but even there people have complained.
But you're allowed to practice any as long as it's not interfering with anybody
else. You pretty much can do anything in this country and say anything in
this country, as long as it's not harming, physically harming, or infringing
on someone else's rights. It's the pursuit of happiness. I believe that everybody
wants something in life. We all want something because we think we will be
better for having it, whether it's more money, a nicer car, a
better relationship, we want those things because we feel like we'll better for having
it. I can't tell someone who feels like they would be better for not
having an appendage on their body and being identified as that they won't be happier.
I have no idea, and it's really none of my business. But
when you start to infringe on other people, now, the public school I
think runs into a very very sticky legal ground because you can't discriminate. And
we've had that go on in this country for a long time over things that
people can't control. Now this is one that somebody can control. You're choosing.
No one chooses how much melatonin is or is not in their skin,
right, But this is something you unless you go to Golden Town, but
you go. So I think there's all this, but I think the school
has to say if you identify as this and this is the way you're going,
you get to use the women's locker room. If you're uncomfortable as a
women, you we will provide a separate room for you. That they have
to do. I think a lot of people's emotional side is why why should
why should it be the person who is born at birth as a woman,
and he uses the woman locker locker room who says she's uncomfortable that has to
go into the closet to change or whatever the alternative room is. And I
know, on a on an emotional level, and you know, even a
logical level, sure it doesn't make sense. But I think when you're looking
at it from a legal standpoint, that's pretty much all they have to do.
So all the protests and all the things that go on, to me,
it's like yelling in a black hole. I don't think it changes anything.
And I'm not sure that anybody at any level isn't necessarily agreeing. But
this is sort of the way our freedom has allowed. You know, that's
there's an there's an ugly side, and that's why I began with Some countries
don't allow this for exactly this reason and this way. So they did a
whole episode of South Park, like when when They're about to go to rock
yeah, and a lot of people and I think it was South Park's two
hundredth episode, and they did the whole a little bit country I'm a little
bit of rock and roll, yeah, And the whole thing was like the
Rock guys you know were very liberal were kids going into rock Yeah, which
now we all know was a mistake, and all the conservative the country people
were like, no, we need to go and direct a freedom. And
the whole point of the episode is like in America you could have your cake.
Yes, and he did too. And there's some countries where like just
north of here or south of here, you can't do that. Yeah.
I don't know much about Canada in terms. Trudeau is like clamping down on
free speech. Bro, he is awful. He he is the devil.
I don't Yeah, I'm not I'm not familiar. I don't know. Joe
Rugan's podcast is pretty much banned in Canada. Just to give you an idea,
Okay, So I just I think, like, so, that's what
I'm saying is you don't have that in this country. You get a dial
out was the basis of what we are right two hundred and plus years ago.
That's what formed this. So I do worry when I see other things
happening around the country where there is an ugly side I'll call it the ugly
side to free speech. There's an ugly side of freedom. Somebody gets to
do when practice and do things that you may not agree with, as long
as it doesn't interfere with your day to day life, then it's you have
really nothing to do. Nothing you can do about it. And I'm not
so sure on this one. I just think that, you know, public
schools a lot of times, I always heard about the war on Christmas.
They wouldn't allow you to say Merry Christmas in public places and government buildings weren't
putting up Christmas. Well, yeah, because you know what, there's also
people who are citizens and allowed to practice. Why should we be putting and
supporting one religion and not another, not Muslim, not Jewish, not do
you understand? And I think that's why. So they have to kind of
remain non secular, and a lot of people that's a war on Christmas.
Well it's not. It's freedom. It's freedom, and it's staying neutral.
And no, you have the right to wish anybody in Merry Christmas you want.
You can walk up to a Muslim and go Merry Christmas. And you
should have Jesus in your life. I mean you could say it. I
don't know what the result will be, but that's the point. So I
don't know what's going on out in Webster. But Laura, I think,
according to Kevin, has a little bit more information on there. On this
treet, It's Laura Live from Webster. Laura, what can you tell us
what's going on in Webster? She's gonna be high again? Hello? All
right, what bar are you at? Now? I'm at Buncey's. I'm
with a whole group from my gym and listening to one of my trainers play
tonight. No, it's just my trainer. His name's Pete. He goes
by Peter Ryan. And you know, so I'm out with some of my
friends for her birthday. I think that's great. When the gym goes to
the bar, that's awesome. Curl all we all worked out together today and
now we're all heavy. So I burning those calories off and putting them right
back on baby for the holidays. That's the way we like it. So
Kevin says that you have a little bit more as to what was happening in
Webster, and I will. I will tell you that I talked to the
mom again today and she was not happy with you in particular. I mean,
I don't think a lot of people are happy with me. At times.
But I'm not trying to be an instigator. I was just sort of
I thought you brought up a very good point where you said, like,
this sounds like something that's that's taught at home. And I understood why you
were saying that was more because the mother had one point had said this is
a form of mental illness or and it's a little harsh there to be saying
that those are inflammatory words, right they would be, yeah, and I
but she said that she was going to crawl through the phone and choke you,
and she doesn't think if she were in the room that you would have
said it. I just want you to know that. I just want you
to know that. Well, Mark wants to know if that's a turn on.
By the way, Mark just texted it, no, I think we're
done talking about my turns on the podcast. Oh by the way, that
that too. I think somebody else listened to it. And I had named
that episode pictures of Willie based off of based off the WHO song Pictures of
Lily. It's like, sometimes I try to go, what can I call
this? So it's really just a joke for me. But then this woman
said to me, my friend listened to the whole podcast. I don't want
you to be mad. I only listened to the part where this woman was
on, but she said Pictures of Willy was about Dick Pics, and I
said, yeah, I go. Apparently this woman who was in on the
podcast is a collector. She's got no really hockey court. You know.
You know how like you go to Delta Sonic and you can get a free
glass with every wash, you get a free Dick pic with every bonoid.
Yeah, I'm so good. There you go. Right, we need to
clarify that this has been new since my divorce two years ago. Well,
in a short period. That's a short period of time. We're talking twenty
four months. I want you to think about that. You've had children.
We talk about like the incremental ages of kids. Right, we go three
months, six months, nine months, twelve months, eighteen months, twenty
four months, within twenty four months. What did you have thirty two dickpics?
It was a card catalog with the Dewey decimal system. That's a lot
catalog. I'm just saying. I'm just saying, oh my goodness, now
I have I have heard that in Webster and we sort of surmised without any
real knowledge of this, but that this student who was transgender may have just
had enough and was sticking up for themselves at some point. Yeah, I
would say wrongly, so the wrong way to do it. Go ahead,
No, I was just gonna say, as we soap on Monday, I
said, I am so anti the violence, and speaking about myself as a
teenager, I would not have been comfortable if there was, you know,
any change in who was in a locker room, but in you know,
since then, I have watched a different video than what had been for Trade,
where it definitely seems that the transgender student was antagonized a little more.
And I understand where the mom Nicole was coming from and trying to stand up
for her child, saying that, you know, she didn't feel comfortable and
that she's trying to figure this out. But beyond if she takes the whole
transgender thing out of it, and she's talking about the violence that's going on
in school and talking about that it's a transgender female who attacks her daughter.
If you think about how much just heterosexual violence there is girl on girl in
any form or bron boy, there's so much violence in school that this shouldn't
be like, well, this is such an extreme case because there is more
violence. You know, this is just one scenario. But I talked to
a friend today about how her daughter goes to Open State night, who was
a thirteen year old daughter who goes to the same student school as the students,
and she's like, yeah, my daughter says that fight's break out all
the time at Open State. It's teenagers. It's teenagers being too violent and
too extreme. And what you know, I mean it's Danny sitting here doing
when you're right, Chet, You're right Jet from your first Sego Red Right,
which was in nineteen fifties, play Yes. So we're basically saying that
teenagers have been teenagers. They're a whole lot all Memorial right time. Memorial
is certainly right. I've also been told, though, and I don't know
if you heard this, Laura, that in the school district, most of
the kids and I don't know why, my gut feels this way. Doesn't
mean it's right, but I think the kids are a little more open to
somebody saying I'm translator, and from what I understood, that theory in my
head was somewhat supported by the actions of the kids who openly referred to the
transgender student as she, using the pronounce she. Since all this stuff has
happened, I think now, and again, I don't know when when anybody
says to me, well everybody, well, who's everybody in your world?
How you know, how do you quantify that? But everybody is now referring
to the transgender student as he, And the only reason to do that is
to be inflammatory, right, to piss the person off, get under their
skin, embarrass them, shim yeah right, yeah, well, like yeah,
I was talking to a group of moms whose kids, again all goes
to this middle school. They are all connected in some way, and they
are talking about how they now have the students are now calling the other students
a hey but, and that they're staging a protest and all walk out tomorrow
and all of this, and it just when I watched the full video,
it starts with a whole group of kids laughing, and you hear one of
them say to Layla, who was Nicole's daughters, Layla, you're gonna offend
her. And then you see Laila and the transgender students standing across from one
another, and the transgender student's mom clearly says I want to know where your
mom is, where's your mom or I'm going to call the police. And
then it seems as there so I don't know if they went with the attempt
to harm Laila. It's so completely wrong. Yes, that is a video,
keV, and like I, Kevin, I apologize and then you see
you see the attack. You see the transgender student attack Layla and whoever is
filming, there's a everyone is laughing though, and then the student hits Laila
and there's so many people who are just standing there and screaming and laughing,
and the mom of the transgender student, to me, it's very hard to
see, but it didn't look like she hit another child there. It looks
like there assumes to be a third child who is Leila's friend that goes in
and that mo but the mom with the transgender student pulls that child off and
is like pushing her back before someone else breaks it up. But you know,
when Layla did say that she was going to go to a teacher who
brushed her off, I didn't see that in the video. This is uh
All twenty two. No, it is the All twenty two right where they
break down the phone, right, But I think that this is uh,
it sounds like a very sad thing to me when I'm hearing this. It
sounds sad. And I say that because you've got somebody who clearly is having
identity. We can call it identity issues. We not comfortable issues, sir.
There's something they're not comfortable and they're trying. And all anybody wants,
especially that age, is acceptance. And it sounds like I feel like it
was cool with everybody up to this point. And here's where I do wonder
if the parents are kind of the rocket fuel to this, not that there
wasn't maybe some concern among the students themselves, maybe some questions, but it
wasn't. It didn't seem to be pervasive or prohibitive of anything. The kids
seem to get along, but then the parents inject and man, it's it's
like whosh, yeah, And that's when it's over. When the cooler heads
in the room can't vail and the supposed cooler heads can't prevail. But I
think it's like, but think of any generation, go back, go back
to Archie Bunker and the bigotry. Right, we all had a relative like
that, and well then when then we will do but then we realize that,
hey, people are people and it doesn't matter what color your skin is,
and so we move ahead, and we move ahead, and I do
wonder where this is one where many people who are of adults and parents can't
wrap their head around this makes no sense. And I I and there,
but the kids themselves are going it's a big deal. Now, maybe not
all of them, but it seems like enough of them that there wasn't an
issue prior to this. That's right, well, I do. I had
heard that there had been a past with these two students before even the school
board council, that the Layla had arranged, or Layla and a group of
friends had said that they were not going to participate in gym class with this
student. And then when I asked some other moms about, well, what's
the changing rooms like, and they're like, they know, there's no there's
no undressing and getting changed into gym clothes in it. But that what I
haven't told from people who are closer to the circle is that both Layla and
the transgender students are spicy women. And again, I was a thirteen,
I was told, I was told spicy families is what I was told about
And that's what I was thinking, because I'm with the gym clothes. It's
a public school, so you're wearing It's not like you're going to a quatres
of quid where you're change taking off your shirt and time putting on your shorts.
You're wearing pretty much what you were to school. Do you go to
gym class? So I think it, you know, I wonder what would
have happened if these two families had gone and sat down and over a cup
of coffee and maybe come to like as But I just think that, yeah,
you know, teenage girls are we're brutal. I mean, yeah,
no, I I think I think right from the cradle to the grave,
I would say it would be pretty brutal. I'm an angel, but family
should stop at the capital, start on me and get the nachos. Yeah,
maybe a lost Irish. I hash it out. I saw two bottles
of lost Irish and the lady next to me started chatting with me. Uh,
and she said, uh, what do you She asked me what I
was eating and I told her in the she said, we got the nachos.
I go they don't get soggy, because I've never had them like that
are amazing. Yeah, but no, I just think, yeah, I
think that, you know, as a webster mom, I am like very
into the story because it just makes you want to You gotta be careful though,
because from what I understand, some of them with other webster moms want
to know what's on your phone and they want to see if they can identify
any of the picks they're about to ship you east. See if you guys
know, there's a plethora. I've only dated a few people. Well I
don't know. I don't know how you quantify plethora, but from what Kevin
said, there's quite a few. What did Kevin say, Yeah, she
calls it the class of twenty twenty three. Kevin didn't say ship Yeah he
did. No, he did not. No, that's right, Kevin didn't,
But keV did. It's true the webster are unionized. What he does?
Huh yeah, yeah, anybody calls me keV? No? Well,
how about K man special K how about K nine? Sniff this out?
All right? Well, Laura, it does sound like this is something that
that doesn't need to go that way. And I know that the protest is
to sort of try to hit the school in the pocketbook because you get less
state aid but less students going in. There's going to be a picket tomorrow
and some students are going in. And I also, I you know,
I like vacation. Well that's true, but well one is you don't miss
a lot of work. But two they're hoping that in some way you get
less state aid. It's based on how many students actually show up. This
is why you know, the city of Rochester used to go out and find
kids and knocking the door, going hey, let's get in here. Because
they're getting paid per student that comes in from the state and every public school
it's not just there. So they're trying to hit him in the pocketbook.
And I don't know that this is really going to make anything I have said.
Maybe I'm wrong, but in my opinion, it's like yelling down a
black hole and you got to learn some tolerance. And unfortunately, I think
the laws are written in such a way that I don't know that there's much
that the public school can do, no matter where they're on it. And
it becomes an emotional issue, and once you start letting emotions take over intellect.
We have a lot of problems in the areas, and I can understand
why. And I'm not saying that there's no accusation here. If I had
a thirteen year old girl, I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with a thirteen
year old boy who now identifies as a girl changing in the locker room.
I understand what those people are saying. I have also said, and I'll
say it on the podcast that if one of my sons, I think I
might have said this the other night, if they decided that, hey,
I'm not comfortable, i want to transcender to a girl. I'd like to
know more about this identify as a girl. My answer to them would there's
a swim to a try out for I don't think they allow that in Alabama,
I would say, I will no. Oh no. I would say
to them, you are looking for acceptance outside the locker room, not inside
the locker room. So if you're going to change and people are uncomfortable,
you be the one to go to the alternate changing area, come out because
that way. Look, maybe it feels weird and you feel a little es,
but you're doing something that you want people to accept and is different,
and it's extremely different, right, It's extremely different for to day, not
saying it's wrong, not saying anything, but let's try to give a little
to get a little, right, we want some tolerance. Let's give some
tolerance. Yeah, I think that would be my way of coaching up my
kid. But thankfully I never had to do that, you know. And
I'll just say, because I don't know, I don't know how tough that
would be as a parent, and how confusing it would be as a parent
to even try to understand and relate to your own kid. I think would
be very hard. But you know, you have the right to do whatever
you want to do. And I would say, God bless you, but
I think Danny would get upset with me. May God bless all of us?
Yes, right, exactly, And I don't I wasn't trying everyone.
All right, go back to uh what does she get? Yeah, Well,
enjoy your night, and thank you for the cutter. I sett alone
for the update. All right, bye, guys, All right, the
Wild and Wonderful Moms of Webster. She was supposed to ask you a question
the way out as to why you hate her. Oh, but she forgot.
I don't hate I don't understand what. Well, hang on, why
don't we take a moment and then we'll come back and you can ask that
question. I want to know where that came from one and then you know,
keV, I'll try to give the answer to the best I can.
Sorry, Kevin, well, when I kicked the rolling stones on, you're
not Kevkev, don't you dare? Uh? Oh, we have the cobblestone,
not the cobblestone, excuse me, the Woodcliffe. The woodcliff did give
away the spot, give certificate or use it for dinner or the hotel stay.
We did get another call in, Oh we did. Yeah, we
got actually a couple. So we'll play a couple of those and then we
will I don't know what beats a kid getting kicked out of daycare, Well,
the kid had a daycare. I think it's definitely a winter. Yeah,
he won. And then we have to say whether it was the person
who was trying to put people into assisted living and painting rooms in their house
and the guy whose wife sat had a heart attack. That guy, I
don't think deserves it. I think if you had a heart attack and your
wife saved your life, you buy what that? Yeah, we'll give you
one hundred dollars swords. You better go all in, better go. Maybe
he got the medical bills and he can't. It ain't cheap. That's a
good insurance. It's it's not cheap to stay healthy in America. We'll get
Jamil to right alone, and we will get to all that next. But
first, Iron Smoke Distillery in Fairport, New York. I suggest you pick
up some of the Rattlesnake Rosies line, maybe the pumpkin pie Rattlesnake Rosies pumpkin
pie, or the chocolate peanut butter pie. It's just a great dessert drink.
This is great with anything. Put a little bit in your coffee.
It's just a great around the holidays, great any day, but the holidays.
Right, you pick up a couple of bottles of those. You show
up at a relative's house, you're a hero, You're a hit. They're
happy to see you. I mean, other times of the year maybe not
so much. And Iron Smoke is such a great place. You know.
They had their home for the holidays Christmas party yesterday and they had an indoor
snowball fight, I am just saying, and an ugly sweater contest with Santa
Dick Storms doing the whole thing. Just a fun tonight Chris and Corey and
the Friday Acoustic Sunset Sessions. That'll be a lot of fun. It begins
at five o'clock and goes till eight and then at eight thirty it's a Rochester
favorite Jumbo Shrimp rocking out the holidays, getting you right in the mood as
we get into the Christmas weekend, if you celebrate, and a whole lot
of fun. And when I say a whole lot of fun, a whole
lot of fun is always happening at Iron Smoke Distillery in Fairport, New York.
Baby, hell, you're the new Butler. It's been a long dot
sin's e been the new anything? What's happened to Hudson? I guess he's
changing. Yeah, it does that a lot, doesn't he? Am?
I David Bowie. I live down the road, Sir Perceval. Lets me
use his piano when he's not around. He's not around? Is he?
I can honestly say, I haven't seen him, but come on in,
come here, I'm gonna do. Come on in. Are you related to
s person? Well distantly? Oh you're not the poor relation from the America.
A Yeah, it's sure. It travels fast, doesn't it. I'm
being oh is to meet you. You're the one that sings right? Well,
right or wrong? I sing either way? Od I sing too?
Oh good? What kind of thing? Well? Mostly the contemporary stuff.
Do you do you like modern music? Oh? I think it's marvelous.
Some of it really fine. But tell me, do you ever listen to
any of the older fellas? Oh? Yeah, sure, I like John
Lennon and the other one with Harry Neilson. You'll go back that far.
I didn't know there was all this time. And he really gets excited around
the Christmas holiday thing. Do you win for any of the traditional things in
the boy household Christmas town? Oh? Yeah, most of them really presents,
tree decorations, agents sliding down the chimney. I was just seeing if
you're paying attention. Actually, our family do most of the things that other
families do. We sing the same songs. I even ever go at what
Christmas you do? And this one? This is my son's favorite. Do
that's all I do? Indeed, it's a lovely thing. Was this an
SNL? No? I don't. I don't know where this was. I
think it's like I'm wondered. Yeah, I think they did a video.
Yeah, obviously did a run on MTV. I don't remember it. Oh
no, I don't know. I don't think it was an SNL piece.
So I always liked this version for whatever reason. Don't they harmonized well Love
You and King old school new school now both old school. I don't know.
I think Bowie may have found God get sweeping boom. I don't know
that some of these people fine God. I don't think there's anybody that would
tell you that there is a can higher intellect intelligence, right, a source
intelligence that is always evolving as the world goes forward, which some people call
God. And your guidance system be your soul. When Pretty Mercury died did
the Concert for Life, Yeah, David Bowie, out of nowhere decided he
lays in general, let's do the Lord's Prayer together. Yeah, and there's
like two hundred thousand people in the crowd were like okay, and they all
did it in Unison in England. I mean it was like rock stars,
Wow, okay, we jold. I heard Penguin. I'm not singing with
that fucking hippie. Cross Stretch of Wio Space Odity by ass Boe just with
Bowie didn't Bowie just didn't care. But we don't play bunce. He did
not care what you thought of him. He told people he was gay in
the seventies. Well that was taboo. He just came out and said he
was gay. I don't think he was. I don't think he was.
There was a rumor on him and Mick. Yeah, I know. I
don't think it was true either. Uh. So there was a very there
was a rumor that the song Angie was about Angela Bowie, which was David
Bowie's wife. Okay, I don't his first wife. Yeah, I don't
know if that's true or not true. I will tell you that when Keith
Richards sat down with Howard Stern very recently. Uh and by the way,
I've become a huge XM fan. I want this podcast on there. I'm
gonna we're working some back channels here now. But that he uh, he
said, no, it was about it was written about my daughter. My
daughter's name is Angie. Keith Richard's daughters has a daughter named Angie. I
didn't know that that. I didn't either, And he said that was the
that's who the song was written about. But the rumor, and it was
I mean Stern I think brought it up and then in that vein that it
was about Angela Bowie, but it wasn't. Now the song Layla was that
about between Keith Eric Eric Clapton and George Harris George Harrison's well, Layla is
partised on like a Yes, George Harrison's wife did eventually become Eric Clapton's wife.
Okay, I thought it was the other way around. No, okay,
yeah, and it was, uh, Layla is uh? I think
a Greek love story, a love love character. I'd have to go back
and look. I don't I don't remember. I did a lot of classic
rock for many years, and when I did the national stuff, I would
always talk about the record. So because they were like best friends, they
were tight, yeah, so tight, they shared everything. I mean that
that stuff is like weird to me. I don't know. I'm I'm still
not convinced that, you know. I don't have two things, And I
don't think human beings can be unconditional in their love. I just I don't.
I think that we always have a condition by which right uh, And
then the other is by that you you don't want to I think we're incapable
of sharing because we put so much emotion into sex and that's my partner and
that's my one that if that were to deviate. That's why I think sometimes
I don't know. I would love to know, and I don't even know
how you would get percentage the percentage of couples that started out as swingers and
then after a period of time said this just doesn't work for us, or
it doesn't work for one of us, and I'd rather be with this person
than all these other people, So I'll do this, or I'll once in
a while go out and do my thing with that behind their back, I
guess, but I would love to know that because I just think that that's
a very difficult lifestyle. And I think if you talk to people who are
later on in life, say, yeah, there are times where it's very
challenging because you you become emotionally invested in someone and you don't want them with
somebody else, Right, that's just part of the It doesn't work for invested
in someone and you don't want them with somebody going on there, he heard
voices inside my head. I got it. Oh, so you're you're watching
over there? I'm just making sure it was you. No, that's cool.
I like that. That's all right, do a little monitoring. I
just I had your phone still up through the through the board, which because
we called shit meet just the most, like, is there a worst turn
that could come out? Like, honestly, that was a big mistake and
I should have I shouldn't even admit to these things. But she thinks I
hate her. I think she thinks you hate her? Well, why do
you? Why do you say that? Because she asked me why you hate
her? Oh, she said why do I hate her? Yeah? And
I said, he hates everybody, but I don't hate anybody. What am
I supposed to do? If Billy really hated her, she wouldn't be on
the show. Yeah, so that's an answer. I think it's security on
her part. Yeah, I agree. And I might have been a dickpicky
center too. No, I know, let's not start that. I uh,
are we seeing the same dicky that even better? I said, No.
What I did say was in a caption where you have to click I
war. Kevin said to me, Hey, she's gonna come on the show.
Do you mind? And I go no, But just this is your
call. If you think she's good to be on the show, that's fine,
I'll tell you afterwards if not. She's a fun person. Yeah,
she had stuff. I just let you be the liaison there. I don't
need to get involved in that. Like that one show that she was on,
people have my phonecall as one show she was on that I was on,
she was she was fantastic, she was great. Yeah right, and
she talked about, you know, going out with her ex husband's new girlfriend.
Yeah. Yeah, right. It's the modern family type stuff right where
Yeah, the world's are that? Fellas? Have you finished up the shopping
for your wives? No? No, I mean I'm trying to. Yeah,
but no, okay, because I remember her birthdays that day asked,
Okay, I like it. What's that she got? Like the Patriots?
I got a book for that's a great book. There's a can I tell
you something. There's a story in that book about everybody thinks about the spoilers.
So Bobby Bethard was the general manager of Washington. He won three Super
Bowls. She was on the team with two for two of them. Right,
So then they bring him to San Diego to run the Chargers, and
his biggest mistake that he's known for is drafting Ryan Leaf. He traded up
two spots to draft He gave up a haul to draft Ryan Leaf, and
Ryan Leaf became a bust. What you will find out in this book is
that that wasn't his biggest mistake yet. His biggest mistake was telling Mike Riley,
no, you can't draft Tom Brady. Really, that to me is
Bobby Bethard's biggest mistake. Riley one, But come on, Riley wan,
Now, we don't know that he would have become Tom Brady and Sandy I
under Mike Riley. Bro we don't know. But yes, but he did
become Tom Bradley, I know. And a lot of that was Tom investing
in Tom and putting in the time in this I mean that Tom at the
end of his career. I want you to go back and look at guys
at the beginning of their NFL career in the end of their NFL career.
Let's go with the quarterback the Steelers who recently reached Roethlisberger's Look at Roethlisberger at
the beginning of his career, then look at him at the end of his
career. Okay, he had a noodle arm no, but I mean he
just looked like he aged. Tom looks better when he left the NL than
when he entered the NFL. That's a rare thing. Tom also a lot
less lawsuits than Ben Roethlisberger head. Well, that could be. But I
mean I'm just saying, like, but Ben, Yeah, but Ben never
worked at it. Yeah, he never took care of him. He never
took care of himself. I mean, your boy was eating avocado. White
people were making all kinds of fun. We'll go to bed at eight o'clock
at night. Always it cost him a marriage at night. Yeah, absolutely
kill. And apparently they're they're possibly on the mends of getting back together.
Yeah, that could be. I mean I've also heard Tiger and the other
chick too. Possibly, no way, his wife. I love to see
that dude, if it means he'll be a better golfer at all for it.
No, I loved watching him with his kid. But I can't imagine
she remembers she like threw the golf club right through the back wingshield, and
oh god, we played that over and over again. We used to play
because he called the chick is take take my name off, called Rachel Utah
take my name off your phone? Yeah? Yeah, so want to take
your name off the phone? My wife baby calling? You turned your phone
to your name to a number. Yeah, that's right. And so it
was turned into his song. It's like, hey baby, take my name
off your phone. It's like, and we shouldn't laugh at this. It's
the destruction of a marriage and family and there it's more than just a couple
that's affected by this and all kinds of shit. But how about New York's
resolutions? What are you looking for in twenty twenty four? I actually I
actually lived all I actually lived up to quite a few of them from the
past. Stop it you did? I read ten books? You did almost
twelve? Hey, so I read ten books. I think that's impressive.
Good. I didn't lose all the weight I wanted to, but I did
lose you found a few pounds. Yeah right, But next time, I
try to lose the weight that I put on like I wanted to lose a
year ago. Right. Yeah. So, but uh, I'm gonna try
to be more christ like. And I know that sounds silly and everybody laughs,
but here it is. This the song by Tiger Can you turn it
up louder? On your can you your shady? Imagine this is your brother,
your dad, your nephew, your son, and you get in your
car to go to work and a couple of chuckleheads are playing this laugh come
on, I know, like seriously, it takes a special person to have
to brush this off set. A lot of work would listen to the production.
Hey mammy, I had a job as a backup sticker this morning,
so I don't understand like take your name off your phone? So, in
other words, Hi, you've reached Bill Moran. So instead of being like
you've reached five eight five, I would have been so stupid. I'd be
like, Tiger, I don't know what you mean. Wow, Okay,
yeah, all right, that makes sense. I never I have never Tiger
take my name off, your name off your phone? It was the whole
song. I used to love it. I play that all the day.
I'm at home. I'm just singing it taking me. I don't know why.
I just had a you played one more time the nipt off Dang and
play again, just because I love It's a smooth beat, banging music.
Right. He wise, brother, I don't. He's got a good video
to showing pictures of the crash. Can you take your hand bob her home?
Why not? Shall slow down, folks and do it with me now?
And on just having your sing some more? Your hand? Oh god,
I don't like to this day. I get such a charge out of
it. His wife to me was not I is it bad if I says
she was pretty? Yeah, she wasn't hot. I didn't find her.
I actually thought, Rachel, who could tell me a little hotter? She
had those collagen lips. Wow, she was sluttier. Let's put it that
way. Somebody are like, you like a girl that I'll do you in
the bathroom. No, no, no, I like it was Denny's parking
lot, Denny's Perkins like if I'm if I'm a famous guy and I'm single,
Maybe that's why Perkins closed. I you just know the deals you can
close and the deals that are gonna take a little while. How much time
am I going to invest in this? That's all I'm just judge. Tiger
Woods used to ask, like Eddie Murphy and Michael Jordan and other guys,
how do you pick up girls? And Charles Barkley just told me Tiger Woods,
yeah, that's how you pick up Because he was so insecure in his
own skin because he was his father had set up up to be this like
this folk hero, not just a golfer, but he wanted to be Gandhi.
Yeah, Kevin anything for twenty twenty four or keV okay Dog finding a
new podcast? Come on any plans, I'll give you this. So a
website will launching for the podcast will be all inclusive for the company. But
the podcast will be have a page on there and we'll update it. We'll
put things like you could go watch the video that Kevin just played, we
would put it onto the website. Well, the other podcast would be a
part of that too. What's that the website? We don't know what's happening
with the other podcast. Ask Games is kind of stalled. I heard there
was some inner transitioning. I don't know, I'm doing a podcast. There
was some I think there was some interpersonal I'm not going to get involved.
It wasn't one that I was involved in other than you know, I was
kind of the so Alex the pivot man, get back to work and then
and then there was some interpersonal things I think another podcast so that yeah,
yeah, yeah, there's some interpersonal doings. I don't know feeling. I
don't know again, Kevin me, but I just I don't I was,
you know, so I don't know. I think that may come back off
their phone. Well, the Greg Commons is going to do a podcast too.
I I don't know that Greg was. I've never talked to Greg about
that. There was talk to me about trying to get Greg involved in something.
I don't know where Greg has the time. I don't have the time.
I would need other people to pronounce yeah, start doing that cent of
thing, and then so we'll do that. We're going to do a live
show in twenty twenty four. A couple of times. I'll be out at
the Rickles Room, comedy at the car. Right now we're taped. Well,
I know what you meant by live, Oh leave the jokes was not
a bad joke. I just wasn't with you. I'm thinking we will be
live audience, let's put it that way. We don't have a live audience
necessarily here, So we'll have a live audience. We may do some where
we can invite people in and we'll get some more chairs in here. But
we'll definitely do that, probably once a quarter, but we want to do
it. Like a variety show. I've had a meeting today this about that
show, and yeah, we would do it. Where so we're thinking like
a musical act and somebody in this room suggested Dan and Beth maybe be playing
an acoustic set. Uh somebody who So we would do a sort of like
was it Stephanie was cav cav dog? Yeah, he said what about?
Kevin said what about you know? Uh, Dan and Beth, and I
said, yeah, they've talked about doing that, Dan and his wife.
So maybe, but definitely we're going to do some live shows. Uh,
we'll get the website up and uh, there'll be more you know, more
growth and expansion and uh, I don't know disruption. I suppose I don't.
I don't think of as disruption. I just see it as growth.
But I put this podcast up against any show in town. Uh you heard
it here first. Okay, Yeah, I'm not. I I don't know.
I enjoy what we do. I enjoy what we do and I'm not
looking to go at anybody. That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying,
but this quality stuff, I will Gampole's are over here doing that. I
will get a lot because of my long history in radio in this town and
in radio in general, I will get a lot of people who have said
things to me, and more recently I've had more and more people sort of
come out of the woodwork curiosity. Oh yeah, towards the end of this
year. I'm not kidding, like people I hadn't heard from in and I
never you know, whatever life goes on, write everybody's busy. You can
never take it when when things happen, you start to it's not about you.
Life isn't about you. No one's doing anything to you, no one's
coming at you to hurt you to anything. Usually, I mean, I
guess we could say the Webster case. Maybe I'm a little wrong there,
but I think overall the general idea isn't that people would get very caught up
in themselves. We're all pretty self interested and you know, trying to make
ourselves feel better. So I just think you get caught up in things.
So sometimes I'm surprised when I hear from certain people. But it's been people
wouldn't ever have expected to hear from, but all connected to radio, and
all want to talk about radio, and that's just not where my head's at.
And you know, I will say that I got a call from somebody
kind of gauging my interest about coming back to radio, and I said no,
So that did happen that, I will tell you. Yeah, I
believe that. Yeah, I just didn't. I just said I just said
no, not you know, and and would it be easier? Sure?
Would it be what I want? No? Yeah, you don't want to
talking the finger legs. He told that man to take his name off his
flo. I didn't know. I didn't say that at all. I just
said that there are other projects that I want to do. There's more things
that I saw hit. I'm totally joking. Man. This has been a
blast, great and I appreciate. I'm glad we've connected, you know.
I'm very happy about that and this this whole podcast. What I knew about
the worst part is the hits of the forties, fifties and sixties. Now
was the hits of the seventies eighties. I know. That's so true.
That's so true. Yeah, if you were, Yeah, it was that
long ago, right when I was nineteen years old playing those Uh god,
I want to feel old. When I was at Sint John Fisher last month
announcing games. Yeah, somebody made a reference to the Chris Farley, Patrick
Swayzey, Chip and Dale's video and if you have a started laughing and the
kids in the press box were like, what's that. Yeah, Well of
course they wouldn't they wouldn't know that. But I thought it was like iconic.
They didn't know. Well, they're both dead. Yeah, I know,
you know what I mean to a certain point, like if Chris were
still alive, I think that would be played at all these Hey, Chris
Farley's roast running in the ship, but no or Patrick himself. I guess
I would love to see them, even though he's not around, roast Chris
Farley one last time. Yeah, the guy deserves his brother sitting in the
chair and be there. Yeah, here's what my brother would have said.
Yeah, that's it. That would be an interesting thing. I first off,
Sandler stop writing the live show. I think Sandler Boy, Sandler's turned
out. I mean he went from schlock movies to this new one. It's
the Spaceman movie that I here's supposed to be fantastic, and then just all
the stuff he's done. I mean we look at uncut gems and the Basketball
movie that he did. I really enjoyed the Basketball movie. I didn't see
the best. I didn't see either of them where he went and recruited the
cutt and cut Gems gets uncomfortable for me. But he's great. I mean
it's the best. It's like the trauma. I mean, no, this
is where he's the jeweler and he's just kind of begging for money and you
know, going, hey, listen, I'll close this deal and I'll pay
you back. And it's it's Kevin Durant's in it. I'm sorry, Kevin
Garnett's in it. Mike Francis is in it. Yeah, they're buying jewelry
from him. He's like a jeweler and he's having an affair with a younger
woman at the at the place and then they get robbed and you know this
whole thing. But it was interesting. He was he was very good,
very good, very good. Yeah, all right, we will close out.
No no big plans, twenty twenty four, nothing, come on,
no more hockey tournaments. Stay above ground, baby, staying above ground.
You have Jesus in your heart. You don't have to worry. Yeah,
your heart, I'm gonna tell you about that's true. Oh we didn't wait,
we didn't play that. Yeah, we'll get it tomorrow. We'll get
it tomorrow. The Wickcliff, Yeah, we'll get the So you still got
chances, folks. Yeah, Well one I'm gonna give away. We'll give
away too. We're giving it to the UH daycare. Yeah, and the
guy who had to put some of the parents in assisted living. We'll give
it those two. Well, that means we have one one more. We'll
play the calls that are there. You still have time five eighty five to
zero, six eighty eight sixty six. We'll see you tomorrow.
