00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:08.199
The Downbeat on ninety seven to one, The Freak seven thirty will say,

2
00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:12.960
if your eyes are going to be
permanently messed up from yesterday eight o'clock.

3
00:00:13.119 --> 00:00:19.600
Author Don Van Nada joins the show. He's writing the Jerry Jones biography.

4
00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:23.280
I just wrote down off the top
of my head, like four questions,

5
00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:27.359
but there's many more, the wrenth
of my mind about this one other thing

6
00:00:27.359 --> 00:00:31.839
on that, because we're talking about
why Jerry would let the guy who continues

7
00:00:31.879 --> 00:00:36.840
to write expose's on his poor behavior
write a book about him. And I

8
00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:40.679
think you're probably spot on what you
said to anywhere. It's just either he

9
00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:45.159
didn't care, he respects the best
of the best, does good work like

10
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:50.000
that was thorough the way you rip
me a new one. But also is

11
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:53.039
anyone else doing it? And if
somebody approaches you and is like, I

12
00:00:53.119 --> 00:00:58.119
want to write your story, your
whole life story, Like isn't that everyone's

13
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:03.239
not everyone's dream because not realistic and
all of our lives are nowhere near full

14
00:01:03.319 --> 00:01:07.799
enough to write a book about.
I suppose, well, I'm gathering from

15
00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:11.959
what you've said that this is an
authorized biography, then well that's a good

16
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:15.840
question. There was a picture of
them talking on the man. We can

17
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:18.000
ask him that, Yeah, I
mean, obviously that'll be a big thing.

18
00:01:18.040 --> 00:01:21.359
We ask him, is the Jerry
Jones support or involvement in this?

19
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:26.799
Yeah? Yeah, because typically an
authorized biographies, I think that can be

20
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:32.000
misleading because then you you, I
think you end up giving up too much

21
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:37.959
control to have the narrative customized to
benefit the person that's being written about.

22
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:42.719
Right. Yeah, this doesn't say, and he may not be willing to

23
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:46.000
say, is this book didn't come
out for another two years? Has he

24
00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:49.359
even started it? Surely he started
it. Surely he's been working on us

25
00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:53.000
for a long time. And I
think just by interviewing someone about their life,

26
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:56.599
if they're willing to talk to you, I mean, Jerry's pretty open

27
00:01:56.640 --> 00:02:00.439
to talk to anybody. You know, hop on the bus, let's go

28
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:02.280
have a have a cocktail and let's
chat. Yeah, it could be no

29
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:07.560
more than that, and that's gonna
be the things from those conversations could be

30
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:12.800
included in the book. But as
far as Jerry having a lot of control

31
00:02:12.840 --> 00:02:16.319
on what's written and what's what goes
to press, I doubt. I don't

32
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:20.319
think Don would write. I don't
think Don would write a book like that,

33
00:02:20.919 --> 00:02:23.159
and imagine Jerry's like, look,
yeah, tell my story. And

34
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:25.960
Jerry, in the deep part of
his head is probably you don't know the

35
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:30.439
worst. Like Don's like singing,
writ yeah the daughter, and yeah I

36
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:36.280
did this and yeah I went to
that rally and Don's like, well the

37
00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:40.319
picture yeah, And then Jerry's like, whoa who you talk to? I

38
00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:46.280
don't know how you keep that book
under five thousand pages long like I have.

39
00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:50.360
You're gonna you have to leave that
huge stuff. I mean, were

40
00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:53.599
you talking about the Are we talking
about the party House in nineteen ninety three?

41
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:58.439
Yeah? You, yes. I
don't know that he will Maybe that's

42
00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:02.719
cowboys centric and that's more of a
Michael Irvin Eric Williams tail maybe then a

43
00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:05.840
Jerry Jones tail. Maybe that's left
out. I don't know. That's why

44
00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:10.719
I want to ask him. Interesting. OK, we'll have him just because

45
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:14.479
we didn't. I mean, we
had some response from some listeners who are

46
00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:17.680
like, yeah, you should do
this. Tomorrow we're having on comedian Dusty

47
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:23.680
Sleigh. I gotta do some Dusty
Sleigh homework tonight. You're gonna see him

48
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:27.000
and you're gonna think he's Joe Dirt
and then you're gonna be blown away by

49
00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:30.240
his voice. I might see him
and go, oh that guy you and

50
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:35.840
him. You might yeah, but
he's a I listen, I'm not gonna

51
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:38.000
tell you that I'm a Dusty Sleigh
fan. I have not seen much of

52
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:42.560
his stuff. I've seen a couple
of things enough that when I got the

53
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:46.080
email, I knew his name and
okay, interesting, and I think we

54
00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:49.439
do it out there on the air
last week, and we got a little

55
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:53.439
bit of listener feedback was like,
yeah, you absolutely take him. We'll

56
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:55.280
see, we'll have him for ten
minutes tomorrow. But right now, let's

57
00:03:55.319 --> 00:04:27.199
do the most important thing in the
world. Wait, yes, talking before

58
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:30.240
we discuss how we took it in. Here's how it went down live on

59
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:33.639
ninety seven one The Freak yesterday at
Clyde Warren Park with the min and skin

60
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:38.920
show in the speakeasy. Thirty seconds, everybody, it's about to get really

61
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:46.720
weird. It does look like night
rain. Like right now, your boys

62
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:49.600
got so high because I really gonna
eat me quiet because people are hating us.

63
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:54.360
Right now we are eight seconds away
from your life being changed forever.

64
00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:59.199
Ladies and gentlemen, soak it in. It's the path of totality. It

65
00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:04.439
is happening. I swear girlfriends with
pubic hair is heavier than that. Yes,

66
00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:10.800
there's no sexual morality in the path
of totality. It's so weird that

67
00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:15.160
people are clapping for the sun.
Who are they clapping for the moon?

68
00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:21.720
Everywhere? That is a question whose
side are we on? Here? Take

69
00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:27.879
your glasses off and look around at
how dark it is? My legal dark,

70
00:05:27.959 --> 00:05:32.000
most there, almost there, almost
there, almost there, almost there,

71
00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:46.399
adding Christina, look at how dark
it is. This happened show.

72
00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:55.240
No glasses were days. Look at
it. Look at this and this is

73
00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:59.120
completely orgasmic. Shooty, oh my
god. Look at how well lit me

74
00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:09.759
Cosina is. Oh my god,
that's funny. We're all dead. We're

75
00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:16.079
all dead. Grooves grooves are shoo
bad. That's funny. I was listening.

76
00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:18.519
Yeah, it was a little delayed, you know when you listen.

77
00:06:19.240 --> 00:06:25.920
I was watching on the Instagram live
you see the video, and I actually

78
00:06:25.959 --> 00:06:29.920
had social media yesterday with Ashley and
she was, uh yeah, she had

79
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:32.040
pictures of it too, happening.
I don't know where she got that feed

80
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:35.519
or if she was doing it herself. I'm not sure how that worked out,

81
00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:41.360
but it was cool because a good
shot at the eclips happening on the

82
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:45.720
feed. I don't know if we
get ratings credit for watching on Instagram live

83
00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:49.519
or not, but the company is
tracking our Instagram engagement, so maybe a

84
00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:54.199
good thing. I don't know and
don't care. Go ahead, what'd you

85
00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:58.759
guys do? I had quiet experience, so go ahead kick it off.

86
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.600
So there's a park. I was
gonna go down to Clydeborne Park and join

87
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:06.759
the gang, but then I was
like a traffic and all that stuff.

88
00:07:06.759 --> 00:07:13.360
But more on that later. Traffic. The uh, there's a park near

89
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:17.360
my house. So I got home
and immediately like I tried to go to

90
00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:21.959
sleep. I said, look,
I'm sleeping till twelve and then so so

91
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:28.360
and I, Uh, I made
myself a peanut butter sandwich, no jelly

92
00:07:29.839 --> 00:07:31.720
I had. I hit fast forward. Yeah, yeah, that doesn't sound

93
00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:36.680
like essential information. I got some
sun chips, okay, fast forward,

94
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:41.879
fast forward times two. They didn't
have moon pies at the store. Can

95
00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:44.839
we listen to this? At one
point five? That's what people do?

96
00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:49.720
This a podcast what people do sometimes? The point is a lovely picnic at

97
00:07:49.800 --> 00:07:56.079
twelve fifteen, twelve twenty. It
begins at twelve twenty three, and we

98
00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:59.079
were talking about the one forty twelve
twenty three. It's on goggles on,

99
00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:01.560
it's covered, it's starting to cover
it. It was badass, okay,

100
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:05.079
so let's start with that. So
the big concern, and I was really

101
00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:09.399
convinced that it was just going to
be thick ass clouds, were you,

102
00:08:09.439 --> 00:08:15.720
guys? I was shocked when at
about twelve ten, the rays, the

103
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:20.480
real sun rays started beaming down on
my neighborhood. I'm like, okay,

104
00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:26.000
this thing might happen. Well,
you were down playing it all day saying

105
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:28.279
it was gonna be cloud covered,
and we were all boned. I fought

106
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:33.000
clouds pretty much the whole time.
Yeah, I think everyone did, and

107
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:37.000
some people did probably get somewhat screwed
by clouds, but I'm talking about but

108
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:41.440
there were gaps, it was partly
cloudy, and they were moving quickly,

109
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:48.399
so there was very little time where
the sun was just completely obscured for long,

110
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:54.039
like minutes upon minutes. And I
really did think that with that storm

111
00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:56.799
coming in, which it just seems
like it came in a lot later than

112
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:00.840
they expected, I did that it
was going to be those thick, thick,

113
00:09:01.799 --> 00:09:05.879
gray white clouds just covering the entire
area for the duration, so we

114
00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:09.759
got really lucky. It was awesome. This is going down, lovely picnic,

115
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:13.519
great day. But there's tons of
people in the park where I'm at,

116
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:18.679
and there was a school and this
is kind of where you got me.

117
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:20.080
Uh, this is this is what's
weird. But this is where I

118
00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:24.240
kind of got chills more than anything. It is like so it's just like

119
00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:28.480
it's preschool where kindergarten kids and the
clouds are covering it up and they start

120
00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:35.000
chanting, go away, really cloudy. It's like forty kids, but the

121
00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.000
clouds do go away and it starts
to happen, and kind of like that

122
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:41.840
in that clip, you could hear
the crowds start to just kind of uh,

123
00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:50.399
you have all these people, but
especially these kids just started shrieking.

124
00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:52.279
You know what it's I mean,
it's a bunch of kids and they were

125
00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:56.600
on the other side of the park, but they're just shrieking as as they're

126
00:09:56.600 --> 00:10:01.840
seeing it happen, just getting louder
because they were effing thrilled. And that

127
00:10:01.879 --> 00:10:05.919
part I just like, I was
just like, this is unbelievable. I

128
00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:09.600
don't know why that part got me
a little bit but I was just like,

129
00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:11.879
it's so cool. I think every
I think what you just described in

130
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:16.919
that audio that you played of them
listening live told the stories, the same

131
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:18.679
story for all for all of us. What was you were thinking and hearing?

132
00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:22.879
Because yes, it's cool, right, Oh my god, it's covering

133
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:26.000
it. You keep looking, it
keeps trying to cover it, right,

134
00:10:26.679 --> 00:10:30.600
and I feel like and I'm somewhere, maybe in Florida years ago I saw

135
00:10:30.639 --> 00:10:33.360
a partial eclipse, because I remember
I was not I was excited, but

136
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:37.200
I wasn't blown. I wasn't all
that excited for you stas. I'm like,

137
00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:39.559
all right, it's gonna be cool. You know, I give or

138
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:43.159
take. I know this is gonna
look like same cool. Excited, I'm

139
00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:46.080
outside. I went to my front
yard but plopped a chair out there,

140
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:50.840
had Simon and Hendrix by myself,
glasses on, chilling, and it kept

141
00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:54.840
covering, covering. I had no
idea that when it got to that totality

142
00:10:56.840 --> 00:11:00.559
what it was going to be,
and that audible shriek was on air,

143
00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:03.120
I mean skin They were screwing around, making jokes and then then when it

144
00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:09.200
hit total you could hear them yell
and act differently. Those kids acted differently

145
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:13.399
when it hit. I absolutely acted
differently. All the way up to winter,

146
00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:15.480
it was just a little sliver of
the sun. I'm like, oh

147
00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:20.120
cool. But when that thing hit
total and I took those glasses off,

148
00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:26.200
I involuntarily said, oh my effing
god, I know I did, and

149
00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:30.399
again I was by myself. Yeah, I shrieked like it was David Blaine's

150
00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:37.840
birthday, and I said, Oh, my efing god, I don't know

151
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:41.720
that. Look, I'm not radio
man. That's one of the most amazing

152
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:43.600
things I've ever seen in my damn
life. It was awesome. I can

153
00:11:45.399 --> 00:11:48.080
Before it left totality, I was
like, I can see why these crazy

154
00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:52.440
people traveled to fight to hunt these
things. I can see. I mean,

155
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:56.600
dude, I would fly to whatever, Arizona something a couple hours to

156
00:11:56.679 --> 00:12:05.039
experience that. Again. Too much, absolutely incredible to experience. Yeah.

157
00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:13.399
Look, I'm historically and one known
to be one that will downplay things or

158
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:18.320
not buy into hype. Kind of
like, was it Tim yesterday that I

159
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:22.559
did? I kind of, I
don't know. I saw his point of

160
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:28.600
view. I didn't agree with it
completely. I was concerned, obviously that

161
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:31.240
I thought that the clouds were going
to screw this whole thing up. But

162
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:37.679
I still thought total darkness would be
cool. But nothing that anybody, no

163
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:43.519
photograph, no video, and no
personal description could prepare me for the feeling

164
00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:48.519
that I had when that happened yesterday. So I was at home with Malcolm.

165
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:54.279
It was just he and I and
at about twelve twenty, it's like,

166
00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:56.279
let's go, let's go out in
the backyard. And because I wanted

167
00:12:56.320 --> 00:13:01.759
him to see how interested he would
be in and he doesn't like wearing glasses

168
00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:03.480
or things on his face, but
I didn't get him to put him on

169
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:07.559
and look up at the sun when
the when the moon started kind of starting

170
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:11.440
starting to invade on the Sun's property
a little bit, and that was really

171
00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:16.159
cool, and he did check it
out, but he was more interested in

172
00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:20.799
pointing out where Geraldine's dog poop was
in the backyard. That though it is,

173
00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:24.480
it's very important. And once we
i'd say it reached about twenty five

174
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:28.320
percent coverage, I was like,
let's go out in the front and we

175
00:13:28.360 --> 00:13:31.919
went out in the front yard and
kind of killed some time. He got

176
00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:35.039
in his swing and I'm looking up
at it, kind of monitoring it and

177
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:39.399
everything. And then once it gets
to the point where, okay, this

178
00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:45.799
is getting close. I went across
the street to my neighbor's yard and he

179
00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:50.320
doesn't have any trees, so I
was able to get a real clear view

180
00:13:50.360 --> 00:13:54.320
of it. And Malcolm was in
our yard across the street, you know,

181
00:13:54.440 --> 00:14:00.480
hitting baseballs off of a tee at
me, and when it happened,

182
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:09.480
the it's it's I'm almost speechless to
describe it. The sensation, the feeling

183
00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:16.200
that in one moment it is pure
daylight, and then for a stretch of

184
00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:22.320
about four minutes, the neighborhood become
something that you'll never experience again. In

185
00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:28.960
that way. People's people's lights that
are set to timers or are set on

186
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:35.440
a light sensitive timers that you know
there, there's their porch lights go on

187
00:14:35.600 --> 00:14:39.279
when the sun goes down. All
of those came on. The street lights

188
00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:43.519
came on. A guy that still
has his damn Christmas lights up that are

189
00:14:43.559 --> 00:14:48.519
set to one of those. Those
went on, and the birds went completely

190
00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:54.240
silent. You could hear animals,
you could hear dogs in the neighborhoods kind

191
00:14:54.279 --> 00:15:01.799
of making some you know, some
reaction to it. I heard cheering in

192
00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:05.279
the park down the street. It
was it was ominous. In a way.

193
00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:11.159
But it was also it was there
was a sense of elation, there

194
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:15.200
was no sense of dread. It
was it was an emotional experience. And

195
00:15:15.399 --> 00:15:20.559
I'm not one to really say things
like that about something that you know and

196
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:24.320
did you see? Did you?
I'm having a hard time getting it into

197
00:15:24.320 --> 00:15:28.320
words, I really am, But
were you? Sort of what I said,

198
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:30.679
which was, yeah, this is
gonna be cool, but until it

199
00:15:30.759 --> 00:15:33.840
hit, you had a different I
had a completely different reaction than I expected

200
00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:37.679
when it went total. Man,
I just don't know what I I guess

201
00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:41.200
I did expect that didn't city build
up or anything. No, I did,

202
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:43.080
But I was like, all right, I give or take. I

203
00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:46.360
know what this is going to be. Yeah. Sure, whether you mentally

204
00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:48.559
calm yourself or prep yourself or try
not to get too excited, I don't

205
00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:50.919
know whatever. But when it hit, man, I felt like I was

206
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.399
on a different planet. Yeah,
and it was just I don't want to

207
00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:58.879
be cheesy, but like a peaceful
moment. Oh I got misty eyed,

208
00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:03.120
but I cry like I'm getting worse. I I haven't got MISTI oud of

209
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:07.240
nam WrestleMania. Okay, I'm sorry, I don't I don't care. Oh

210
00:16:07.240 --> 00:16:11.639
my God, it's Meek Mill.
He's here, so like it's it probably

211
00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:15.799
happened four times this weekend, so
it's not abnormal for me. I don't

212
00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:18.639
know why, and I'll still whoop
your ass say something about it. No,

213
00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:22.600
I'm tough as hell, but I
also cry a little bit. And

214
00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:26.360
I'm not saying ball, but I
get misty eye. Man, I get

215
00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:30.879
emotional on important things that maybe I
just deem important for a brief moment,

216
00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:33.759
or something that's important to someone else
really gets me. If I can watch

217
00:16:33.759 --> 00:16:37.960
anyone around a marathon toward the finish
line, I'll cry the whole time because

218
00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:41.039
these people are achieving their life dream. Whatever I did, I got misty

219
00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:42.559
eyed and I was just there in
silence, and I pet my dogs and

220
00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:47.159
I'm like, I don't know,
this is just a magic moment that I'm

221
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:51.240
not gonna forget. But I just
felt way different than I was expecting to

222
00:16:51.279 --> 00:16:56.000
feel because of Bamn. When I've
hit I found myself. And maybe i'll

223
00:16:56.000 --> 00:16:57.320
play this later, I don't know. I don't know if I want to,

224
00:16:57.399 --> 00:17:03.679
but it's pretty awesome. But I
did film about a minute and a

225
00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:10.200
half of the neighborhood when it was
in totality, and you can see Malcolm

226
00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:15.680
in the background just firing off baseballs
and at one point he goes, Daddy,

227
00:17:15.720 --> 00:17:19.240
is it nighttime? Yeah, the
most basic, simple question. Yeah,

228
00:17:21.279 --> 00:17:26.720
it kind of is. But not
for long man, and the reaction

229
00:17:26.839 --> 00:17:30.200
that I have to it. I'm
not even realizing that I'm filming. And

230
00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:33.440
I go back and I listen to
this, like, you sound like an

231
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:37.119
idiot. I sound like the guy
that saw the double rainbow. Oh my

232
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:41.480
god, my god, is this
real? Is this real life? Okay?

233
00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:47.519
Like I know that if you're a
person who was just tired of the

234
00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:51.079
hype because this has been in the
news around here for three months, like

235
00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:53.079
I get I actually understand that part. I'm just tired of hearing about it.

236
00:17:53.160 --> 00:17:56.880
Everyone's been talking about it for three
months. I get that, And

237
00:17:56.920 --> 00:18:00.480
I think even those people get swung
on it, you know eventually where I

238
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:04.799
think I ended up feeling and I
knew. I kind of knew it was

239
00:18:04.839 --> 00:18:08.359
gonna happen, I think, but
I was like almost in my head,

240
00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:14.960
going, how could you take this
for granted? This is the ultimate everything

241
00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:18.559
is bigger than you moment? It
truly was. Yeah, maybe that's the

242
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:21.480
root of it. I think that's
what stop and go. I don't really

243
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:26.359
matter that much and I don't know
man it when it happened to me,

244
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:30.279
like as dark as the guy I
heard TC. He jumped on with the

245
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:34.440
Speakes yesterday and he mentioned a skin
reference because skin is like, it's like

246
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:38.599
it's eight thirty PM. And TC
said, no, it's kind of like

247
00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:42.799
a no shade of color that I've
ever really seen. And I agree with

248
00:18:42.880 --> 00:18:47.160
that outside a text TC, and
it remind him skin is color blind.

249
00:18:47.640 --> 00:18:49.640
He couldn't see a thing. Yeah, don't trust me. Don't trust him

250
00:18:49.640 --> 00:18:53.400
about anything when it comes to that. Skin doesn't know what color anything is.

251
00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:57.279
When people say they don't see color, skin truly does not see color.

252
00:18:57.359 --> 00:19:00.839
He thinks I'm Mexican. Yes,
he always goes hey, dingle.

253
00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:06.400
It's really shocking. He shouldn't do
it that way. But I wish he's

254
00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:08.960
allow it because we know of his
condition. Right. But I agree the

255
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:15.720
color, the shade of that color
was, I agree, like not it

256
00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:18.319
almost felt like you were in the
upside down and stranger things. Yeah,

257
00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:23.920
yeah, it was like you It's
like Apple put a filter on on your

258
00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:29.759
world for about four minutes. That
that is not known to man I ran

259
00:19:29.799 --> 00:19:33.480
into look I got when that was
happening. I'm like, dude, I

260
00:19:33.599 --> 00:19:37.880
downplayed this in my head. Maybe
not downplayed it, but it just wasn't

261
00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:41.599
what I expected. And I thought
back to Tim's phone call yesterday, and

262
00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:45.759
I go, Tim was wrong.
These people that traveled here, good for

263
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:48.440
them, you know what I'm saying. That there were people at the park

264
00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:52.880
at freaking Saint Francis Park right down
the street from my house when I went

265
00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:56.559
up there. Afterwards, we walked
to the park to go play playground,

266
00:19:56.759 --> 00:20:00.599
and there were people that were not
from the state that travel to Hear two

267
00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:03.640
Texas, and somehow they found in
far east Yallas this little park and they

268
00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:07.920
camped up there and sat out there
and watched the eclipse. And I heard

269
00:20:07.960 --> 00:20:11.240
him talking as they were they had
met some other people that had come from

270
00:20:11.279 --> 00:20:15.039
out out of town, and like, so, are you guys heading back

271
00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:15.960
tonight or tomorrow. It's like,
yeah, we got to fly out in

272
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:18.200
the morning, so we're gonna go
do some blah blah blah, and like,

273
00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:22.599
what the hell? They're in my
neighborhood, my little silly neighborhood.

274
00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:26.440
And they found that spot out of
the way to watch the eclipse and they

275
00:20:26.440 --> 00:20:29.480
traveled here for it, and good
for them. I think it's awesome yea,

276
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:33.799
and I would love to see this
again sometime to experience that again tomorrow.

277
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:37.640
Do you want to do it tomorrow? Yes, God, let's go

278
00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:41.039
to Clyde Warren Park tomorrow and just
see if it happens. By all accounts,

279
00:20:41.079 --> 00:20:45.359
that was not exaggerated, that the
number of people coming, the specific

280
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:48.440
number might have been. But even
then on the area yesterday, we're just

281
00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:52.640
like men, was even panicking about
I don't want to hand out all these

282
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:55.920
ninety seven one of the freak chirchs
to people who don't live here, panicking

283
00:20:56.079 --> 00:21:00.000
because there was a lot of people
who weren't from here. Can you see

284
00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:03.200
everyone with glass on staring at the
sun and the moon, and Ben just

285
00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:10.960
staring at the merch table, just
John d dang it from Michigan. I'm

286
00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:15.279
gonna listen, gonna help us.
I get out. We started going in

287
00:21:15.359 --> 00:21:18.079
line and interviewing people asking where they
were from. Dude, We've got an

288
00:21:18.200 --> 00:21:22.000
ESPA. More of eclipse stuff throughout
the show. I want to hear JJ's

289
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:25.839
experience too. We'll get that next. We will do a little bit of

290
00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:30.279
sports as well, and and more
than its seven thirty. The whole eye

291
00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:33.599
Eye thing, we'll get to that. It's a big show. It's fun

292
00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:37.720
stuff, all right. We'll continue
the excitement freak
