The down Beat on ninety seven to one the Freak. Yeah, oh,
let's get ready for Cowboys and Eagles at seven o'clock and more. Do you
see how the crap that Jaguars guys stole? No? What is that?
A big story of fraud in the NFL. And you know what if you
just want to say, you know what, look out of all the years
in my life, I think I can get away with this for four or
five years and then face the ramifications. This guy is making a case.
Now you gotta pay for it. But if you want to have four or
five good years, tell you what that means. At seven, I want
to hear that story. And that's a good tease. It's interesting. Yeah.
Can I read a couple of texts that we got so far this morning?
Yes, there's one house that gets in the last segment too, So
go ahead. This is great. How about this one? Nice and clean?
Ready? Yeah, good morning Downbeat. After years of trying, my
wife and I got our first positive pregnancy test this morning. I hope you
I hope you all have as great a day as I'm having. Make it
incredible. Years of trying, you should have just called me. Yeah,
how about that? This never trying. That's pretty awesome, but you know
what, most people aren't trying. And then I don't know if you guys
want to use me reading this next text as an opportunity of some kind if
it's confirmed. But Brody of course is listening our buddy, and he chimes
in December eighth. Eight is also the amount of world titles Chris Jericho has
won and the amount of times I used to crank to Stephanie McMahon in the

minute. You could zoom in. I'm not going to zoom in. You
could call in Christmas. Sorry, can't be there. Yeah, did it
hurt when John Cena slapped the hell out of you in his second ever match?
And he'll say, no, Mikey, it was fake. He never
touched me. He'd probably be like, where are you at? He's an
interesting guy. I think you guys have fun no matter what, and you
for real, he probably wants to talk about his band Fozzy more than he
wants to talk about aew coming to town, which I imagine that's what he
says on promote. He'll have to talk about something and yell whoever he's you
know they're pubbing him fighting? Yeah, take down Ron Springfield. No,
I don't think it was Ron Springfield. Wh's another one that's an option,
Terry Lassiter, just making stuff up, Texas Terry Lassiter. I don't think
it's gonna be Texas Terry Lassiter. It's the third guy. Who's that guy
that Jericho's fighting an a w Larry Schifflet. Kind of proper names not really
wrestling sound of names, but they do kind of sound like seventies wrestlers.

We have Larry Schifflet on your on your case here records on your property tax
case. Charles Gilbert will be in touch with the uh necessary paperwork for you

demand in studio give me a huge eye. Thanks to AO for ELP and
set that up as well. That's amazing. Yeah, all right, all

the under the whole can under that's a very bottoms of the most important thing
in the world. Usually it actually is, right, I don't know,
it's whatever. Look, the point was I was going to tell you guys
about this in the last segment. We didn't really get to it because we
play Kevin song which is awesome, incredible, and his new one for twenty
twenty three, The Deaths of twenty twenty three immortalized in song pinned by one

He he sells low any over delivers temper your expectation World. There's the underpromise
anyway mentioned Chris Jericho nine o'clock on Tuesday. I won't be here. I'm
leaving. I'm off next week and I'm going to place that I specifically wanted
to talk to Danny about, and I figure went on on air. We
can be five minutes of this because I'm going to the great state of Louisiana
and taking Christina to New Orleans for the first time in her life. Holy
nipples from Hell, and you know what, normally I don't, and I've
been there a plenty, I mean I know it fine, Yeah, but
I am way not above any recommendations for newer stuff. I mean, cities
evolve. So if you're listening and you're either from there or you've been there
recently and there's some hot restaurant or new thing that I need to check out,
fire away. I have a document with all sorts of restaurants that I
want to visit on it. You know, I always try to do that,
you know, but I'm very excited. Man. I think she I
was trying to describe it to her. I mean she's seen pictures, you
know, she's aware of New Orleans but never been and I'm like, well,
I'm like, it's kind of like a never ending, more colorfully lit,
deep elum. Yeah, like if you had a look, it's because
it's kind of dirty. It is dirty, just that just that one street
in the French Quarter and you know kind of if you're right off of that,
Yeah, it's it can be a little touristy and a little wild,
but it's so much more than bourbon. And there's no shame in hanging on
Bourbons. It's fun. So we're staying in the Quarter and we're gonna do
both. But the first thing we do, we're going to absolutely strut straight
down Bourbon Street. And I've done it plenty of times, but I want
her to if you experience that and see it, if it's especially if it's
your first time. Like even if I go now more often than less,
three times i've gone, I have not stayed in the Quarter, but the
first probably a dozen times that I've gone, we'll stay right there, you
know, right off the Quarter in a hotel, just because it's a good
central location because you can go east of town and get over to Buywater,
which is a great kind of up and coming area that they've developed in recent
years. Or you can go west and get to the Irish Channel and Magazine
Street and all that, which is super fun. Take the trolley all the
way over there. But yeah, the quarter's great because when you come back
to your hotel, all those bars are open freaking basically all night long,
or until the bartender decides to kick you out, which happened to me at
Fahi's one night at about five thirty in the morning where we were and there's
something about that city, the concept of powering through you just come up with
an extra extra element of energy that can get you going until damn near daybreak
every day. And we were in there at like five in the morning one
night. We've known the bartender there for years. He's great, and he
goes, all right, everybody, get df out of here. I got
paintball at eleven. Okay, I guess we're walking up, you know.
So it's it's that kind of city, man. But yeah, I love
staying in the quarter. It's awesome. You get you get a total vibe.
It's real vibrant, and you know, yeah, you're gonna deal with
a lot of drunk idiots and people vomiting. But for the most part,
dude, it's it's not that bad. No, it's great, only because
it's come up. And I will I've told you guys both this before,
but I'll tell you again. When I got punched in the face by a
girl on Bourbon Street with my buddy Isaac and he lived there at the time,
and we're just at a bar and it's a good three four am.
I walk out of a bar with him, exit the bar, hang a
right, and this girl comes up to me, I've never seen her in
my life, and she kind of hands on her hips and says, looks
at you right in the face and says, oh really, and punches me
in the face as hard as she can, and then she takes off running,
And I think I turned my face by a few centimeters to avoid her
exploding my nose because she was kind of big girl. So like I think
I turned my face and shooting like great here, you know, I mean
upper cheek, but like maybe grazing the side of the nose or glancing blow
as they say, no, no, a direct I mean this is a
glance. I mean a direct hit, but not direct hit to my button,
to my nose, which I think would have broken my f andose.
Were you in your twenties thirty thirties? Yeah, did we did nothing?
I mean I know that everyone's always no, no, no, that city.
You never know what time did nothing. It's the thing that's like,
you're allowed to drink on the street, so things happen, but not that
so they don't let you drink on the street in New York. Yeah.
I love that you working through the process of what happened. It's okay,
was this mistaken identity and didn't you get in Your buddy kind of figured out
this was a scam. She was gonna get you to chase her. And
then there was a big dude in the alley that was gonna rob you.
Yeah. Maybe, although I'm a big enough dude to where I'm a weird
candidate for it. Yeah. Yeah, after a little Kevot beat the lasagna
out of him, little come on, come beat me up? Just beating
the lasagna. But Kevin and Rata cheese flies out of his ears, ricottas
out of his ears, his stomach, and cheese, little Bigne falls out
of his pants. Where are you from? What happened? But anyway,
Yeah, that's what we settled on. It's funny because then we went to
a different bar asked for some ice, and we're in there drinking whiskey and
I have an ice pack on my face. I'm like, look, if
nothing else, these are a great story. He's the memories, right.
Yeah, it won the first ice pack they hand it out that weekend.
Yeah, it was you know what, you know what, And I know
this for a fact. It wasn't even an ice bag. It was the
football sideline rip cup with ice in it. You know that you rip the
top off and then and why they had that at the ready is even a
better question. But yeah, for a punch of victory. I don't know
if they're prepared for exactly that, but we're in there drinking a whole nice
to your face, still laughing anyway, pretty well. But yeah, I
love and I think this is super fun to take you know, girlfriend,
lover whatever, friend, brother to someplace that you have been and they've never
been. How many days? Three nights? Oh, it's gonna be so
much fun, which, much like Vegas, is probably right at the tipping
point of all you need. Yeah, that's a good amount. I would
say I've been to New Ons once, but that's it feels like a good
Yeah, it's not you know, the Caribbean where you three nights doesn't feel
like enough for it even close. Like, I don't know that we need
any more than three nights. And it's a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday night
next week, you know, which will be relatively chill compared to a weekend
in New Orleans. But weather's gonna be great and I'm just really looking forward
to you know. Obviously, she's a musician, so we're gonna you know,
just you know, I need even schedule. I think I did look
at like Tippatina's and see when the schedule is there, and there's nothing that
blew me away. You know, if you don't see anything like scheduled,
A good thing to do is walk up and down Frenchman Street and you can,
you know, hear the bands just spilling out onto the street. And
if you hear something you like, then you can, you know, pay
the cover and go in and check it out. There's some good stuff over
there, especially on weekends. But man, I've got some great, great
dive bars that are right around where you're probably staying, yeah, that are
off the beaten path a little bit, that aren't going to be filled with
revelers and tourists, right, yeah, no, And that's why I was
legit was gonna ask you off air. My favorite, one of my favorite
bars in America is in New Orleans and it's over there kind of near Frenchman
Street, and it's called the R Bar. And I don't even know if
you I'm sure it's on Google by now, but that's one of my favorite
spots to go too. It's very neighborhoodye it's kind of like the Lakewood landing
of that neighborhood and it's great. Yeah, yeah, it's super super cool,
well super chill oh on all just the whatever whatever local music spilling out
of the streets. I did look into it. I've never been to Preservation
Hall. Have you ever done that thing? I've never done that thing.
No, Like it's one of the oldest, the old one, not the
new one that's on. Yes, yeah, it is ancient. And you
go in there and there's a few seats and then standing room and you pay
twenty twenty five bucks and they just do a forty five minute old school jazz
performance that it's a little teruristy, but again I don't mind doing. You
know, we're going to go to freaking Dumont and get Vignet's. It's our
first time. Like we're obviously going to do that. We're gonna just eat,
which you know is kind of the trick to go on there, and
we are. I'm dragging her to the World War Two Museum, yes,
because I don't think I've ever gone there. In my last five times.
Have not gone to that because they update it, Yeah, you know,
it's still the old stuff. That's that's fixture. Yeah, fixture level.
It's so good you don't mind seeing it again. And she's really sweet with
she knows that she doesn't She said, I'm not great with history, and
she wants to learn more and she got a great memory. So we do
things like that. She loves it and kind of soaks it up, and
she's looking forward to that just for the knowledge, you know, gain.
And that's one of the best World War two museums in America. So we're
doing all that, man, But I'm looking forward to it. And you're
gonna have so much food. Yeah food, dude. Where do you like
to eat when you go there? Do you have any I have a place
called coach Seawn that I yeah, that I go to every time. It's
amazing. And then, uh, I mean grilled oysters. I'm all day.
Yeah, give me the oysters, dude. I might hit one hundred
oysters. And you know, just as as a solo project, I hope
you don't get one of those bacterias. Though the Gulf Coast oysters has been
a problem lately. I'm purely an East and West Coast oyster gray. Now,
I don't worry about anything our buddy PJ. Per Dames hit me.
He says Portocol. Portocol is my favorite hamburger that I've ever Okay, I'm
so glad that's exactly what he said. Yeah, he says, the best
hamburger in America. It is. I've had a lot of hamburgers, but
I haven't had every hamburger in America, but the ones that I've had,
Portocol is the best, the fing best. All right, Yeah, and
I didn't I've never been, so it's yeah, it's uh Esplanae. I
think it's on Esplanade. I'll give you a list of some good spots.
I know you've you've done it a plenty and you have some off the beaten
spots that I'd be looking for. So yeah, anyway, if you if
you don't mind, if you okay, if you want to do like a
semi nice thing, you might need to go ahead make a reservation now.
But if you guys kind of like a Mediterranean food, there's a place called
Shaia that opened up a number of years back and it's on Magazine Street.
It is awesome. Sha Ya put that on your list and try to get
a res used to like when it first opened, it was nearly nearly impossible
to get into, but now I bet it's you might be able to walk
up. But man, that place is insane. I love it. Not
too terribly expensive, but you know, not just cheap. So I have
a Google doc opening ready if anyone has any suggestions, because I'm gona spend
some time this weekend really hammering out exactly. You know you love the Poe
Boy, right, I have a really fairly low rated sandwich only because most
po boys I feel like too much bread. And it's not I don't like
the muffle atta that much either, but there, Yes, and a roast
beef Po Boy roastby Po Boy, Yes, look pound for pound. Johnny's
in the Quarter is my favorite poe boy. There. You're gonna get a
lot of people saying different, other other po boys are better. But man,
if you're in the quarter and you just want to grab it, it's
old school. It's been there for a million years. You walk in counter
service, they got one hundred different kinds. But get that damn roastby pro
Po Boy with debris you'll be so happy. And if you want to try
the muffle at a uh Napoleon house and that's in the quarter too. There's
great spots in the quarter. There's no shame in hanging in the quarter Napoleon
because she loves all of I don't really love all. Get a get a
muffle at a and a pims cup at Napoleon House and you will be like
pems cup so happy. Got birthdays? Spotted cat, I do you have
birthdays? Also know? Our TikTok with Kevin Hart has been We've avoided,
We've we've committed a violation. Oh I got yanked. It got yanked,
which I've appealed it. But it says well, adults making personal choices about
how they engage with alcohol, drugs and tobacco, we recognize that there are
risks connected to trading and using these substances, to which I just hit disagree,
and then I typed in. We didn't mention drugs, alcohol or tobacco.
