23
00:01:48.920 --> 00:02:01.719
us a book. Hey, you
never know ing, cling blingling bling cling

24
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:19.520
blingy got your hot little hand.
It is from Saturday Night to Sunday Night.

25
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:29.039
It's the Memoirs of Dick Ever Saul
a fucking face idt. He's such

26
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:32.960
a producer. You know what.
What's great about the Olympics are the stories,

27
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:38.800
huh you know? And he yeah, he definitely is a guy who

28
00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:45.639
who for as long as he could, did the the T shirt under the

29
00:02:45.639 --> 00:02:50.639
blazer, you know, as long
as he could, as long as he

30
00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:54.919
could. That's so I'm happy.
I'm happy in particular because I've I've read

31
00:02:54.919 --> 00:02:58.840
the book, and it's actually quite
good. So it's nice to have a

32
00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:01.240
hard copy. I have a copy. Absolutely. There we go a lot

33
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:06.520
of lessons in there. You remember
that episode I came out swinging saying that

34
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:13.639
the Dick Eversoll era of SNL is
actually wrongfully maligned. Yes, it said

35
00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:17.039
right after I read that. Wow, good sales job. Wow, But

36
00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:21.879
no, the breath of that guy's
professional experience, the amount of things he

37
00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:24.719
put his touch on, is just
breathtaking. He is an all time legend

38
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:30.639
in television, and Vince McMahon could
not have been more lucky than to have

39
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:35.080
ended up with him in eighty five
on NBC. I mean, you know,

40
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:38.639
we can talk all day about how
Vince had a unique genius for the

41
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:42.719
business, but without Dick Eversoll,
he's a bitch. Vince in the TV

42
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:50.199
absolutely Absolutely, we've talked about Yeah, ohh he's got a lot. I'm

43
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:52.199
just looking at right now. He's
got a lot. He's got some Linda

44
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:58.560
stories as well, apparently, Pedro
Martinez stories, the guy Terry Funk threatened,

45
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:02.919
or the Red Sox Pischure and the
Einhorn's business partner. You mean,

46
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:09.000
there's something called the I w a
that was getting stolen in seventy that's right.

47
00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:15.800
Oh Jesus, that's nice. A
lot of Boston stuff in there too.

48
00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:19.319
Is his late son, Teddy,
who tragically passed away in a plane

49
00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:24.160
crash. Was a huge Red Sox
fan, and there's a there's a park

50
00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:27.199
in Boston named after him. And
oh wow, I did not there's a

51
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:32.040
lot of there about that Connecticut guy, Dick ever saw, Oh dude,

52
00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:39.879
absolutely, Oh fuck yes, and
don't want to say that. I definitely

53
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:45.759
want to see just the name hul
Cogan good phul Coin. I looked looking

54
00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:47.319
in the index. Terry, Yeah, Terry Blayer, just see if that

55
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.480

source of it all? Can you put

64
00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:54.480

Why you do this? True of macho

65
00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:57.879

67
00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:04.360
