Speaker 1: All right, this segment is brought to you by Andrews
Speaker 1: American Pizza Kitchen. There's only one location in all of
Speaker 1: DFW of Andrew's American Pizza Kitchen. It's in Plano at
Speaker 1: Preston and Plano Parkway. But it is so good it
Speaker 1: was named best pizzeria in all of DFW by readers
Speaker 1: of the Dallas Morning News. They got Dallas styles, Chicago Style,
Speaker 1: Detroit Style, Tavern style, and New York style pizza. And
Speaker 1: everybody says they've mastered all five styles and that's what
Speaker 1: sets them apart. And that's why people are driving from
Speaker 1: all over the metroplex to get to Plano, to get
Speaker 1: to Preston and Plano Parkway to go to Andrew's American
Speaker 1: Pizza Kitchen. I did see this update before we move
Speaker 1: on to the weekly week day update. This is from
Speaker 1: Mark Stein at the Steinline on Twitter. He had a
Speaker 1: report that Anthony Davis and Derek Lively the Second are
Speaker 1: indeed both progressing towards an in season return. Whether those
Speaker 1: reactivations actually happen, of course, well that remains to be seen.
Speaker 1: But Davis played two on two this past weekend and
Speaker 1: will almost certainly reach the point before season's end that
Speaker 1: playing in an NBA game is feasible.
Speaker 2: That's interesting.
Speaker 1: You might be of the mindset that, hey, you just
Speaker 1: want to see the MAVs lose so they go get
Speaker 1: a better draft pick, or maybe they cling to the
Speaker 1: play in Tournament and get in. But they're not gonna
Speaker 1: get Kyrie back, and they're not gonna have Kyrie back
Speaker 1: until maybe halfway or further into next season, and so
Speaker 1: you wonder, Okay, there's not a lot of upside there.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, they don't even have bodies
Speaker 1: that are able to get out there play. They can't
Speaker 1: even add players because they're stuck. And so I mean,
Speaker 1: there's been some talk out there that the MAVs might
Speaker 1: have to forfeit games if they can't field enough people.
Speaker 2: I can see the NBA letting that happen, right, But
Speaker 2: there's gotta be some hardship where they could.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I don't know enough about the ins and
Speaker 3: outs of that, but like through all of this, if
Speaker 3: the season were to in today, the Evericks should be
Speaker 3: in the play in Tournament.
Speaker 2: Yeah, against the t Wolves.
Speaker 3: Like that's what's weird about it is they're technically still
Speaker 3: in right the playoff sort of, it's wild wild, you know,
Speaker 3: I don't personally think it'll last that long.
Speaker 1: But hey, yesterday we'll see Jason Kidd had this quote
Speaker 1: where he was like, this is the first time I've
Speaker 1: ever heard of this. I we don't have enough players
Speaker 1: for me to sub out guys when they're tired, because
Speaker 1: there's nobody else to go in and let them catch
Speaker 1: a breather, So they're already beyond the hardship level.
Speaker 2: I do get that. I understand that.
Speaker 3: But as a guy who went to a town where
Speaker 3: you kind of had to play everything and we able
Speaker 3: to occasionally have great issues or not enough people, Dude,
Speaker 3: we played a.
Speaker 2: Lot of games with five guys.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're playing every minute, you're conserving energy, you're changing
Speaker 3: your normally fast paced offense to slow it down. Yeah,
Speaker 3: because the five of you have to play the whole game. Well,
Speaker 3: problem with that comment from jakib Okay.
Speaker 2: I like it. Seven guys ever a game. Let's compare
Speaker 2: it to only high school basketball. It's just relatable. It's
Speaker 2: exactly right, it's exactly right right. Now it's time for this.
Speaker 4: And now it's time for bas Sweet Day Up Day
Speaker 4: featuring veteran news anchor kt fun tweets. Here are the
Speaker 4: important stories he's currently tracking from around the world.
Speaker 3: Now, I could talk about all the shootings that happen
Speaker 3: over the weekend, but I really don't want to, So
Speaker 3: with all due respect to the levity of those stories,
Speaker 3: you can go somewhere else if you want to get that.
Speaker 2: Am I gonna do that here? We're trying to have
Speaker 2: a little fun.
Speaker 3: Yeah, one time Ben came to the show years back
Speaker 3: a little concussed. And it is weird that, you know,
Speaker 3: we should have just told Ben look saying some weird
Speaker 3: stuff today, man, but he legit had a concussion. I'm
Speaker 3: just gonna play a couple of audio clips, you know,
Speaker 3: just kind of it's not all. It's a little fragmented,
Speaker 3: but these are some of the things he said while
Speaker 3: battling the concussion on the Airlive and Top five Marketing.
Speaker 1: Frogs are disappearing. Ask yourself. You spent a long time.
Speaker 1: I promise you if you think about it, frogs are disappearing.
Speaker 2: Have you noticed how few frogs there are? Have you
Speaker 2: noticed that they're all disappearing. I have this theory on frogs.
Speaker 2: That's how it started.
Speaker 1: Please back me on this at four three seven three three.
Speaker 1: The frogs are disappearing. I swear to you they're all gone.
Speaker 2: There's more. Hold on, when's the last.
Speaker 1: Time you saw a frog when you weren't like at
Speaker 1: a swamp or a creek.
Speaker 2: Listen.
Speaker 1: Frog Man as a show is really just about one
Speaker 1: guy in the suburbs who looks out and is like.
Speaker 2: Hey, man, look there's a frog. Check it out. I
Speaker 2: haven't seen it one in a while. That's a big one. Wow.
Speaker 2: All right, So that's that's the gist a Frogman. That
Speaker 2: was the pitch for the TV show of frog Man.
Speaker 1: I stand by it. It's better than the pitch pitch
Speaker 1: for shark butt.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. I'll give you that one. Chuk bow
Speaker 3: is not a good pitch. But I found the story
Speaker 3: today and it made me think of frogs. America's butterflies
Speaker 3: are disappearing at a catastrophic rate. Oh no, according to
Speaker 3: the Associated Press, so you know, a real news service. Okay,
Speaker 3: the number of butterflies has twenty two percent since the
Speaker 3: year two thousand do to climate change insecticides. Habitats are lost,
Speaker 3: so the wing to beauties have gone away. Butterflies are disappearing.
Speaker 2: Damn that sucks.
Speaker 1: Have you guys ever heard the idea that, uh, this
Speaker 1: idea that if you lose someone, when the first butterfly
Speaker 1: you see is that person.
Speaker 3: Yes, you've heard that. I've not heard that. I've heard
Speaker 3: that with you know, the Cardinal and the red bird. Yeah,
Speaker 3: but usually for those who practice Catholic faith. This is
Speaker 3: what that is about. I think I watched conclave.
Speaker 5: Oh okay, so the bird is me too?
Speaker 6: Is weird?
Speaker 5: Did they come back as a bird or a turtle?
Speaker 3: And that guy did not have sex with that turtle?
Speaker 3: Just in case anyone's asking, it's not what happened. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I know you've heard that.
Speaker 5: The butt I definitely heard that thing.
Speaker 7: And so I was in Florida once with Vida and
Speaker 7: she had just had someone pass away that she was
Speaker 7: close to, and then we were just sitting outside by
Speaker 7: the pool and there's a butterfly and so that's when
Speaker 7: she brought it up.
Speaker 5: She's like, oh my god, she started tearing up because
Speaker 5: of that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that that that has happened to me as well.
Speaker 1: That was my mom was big under that thing, and
Speaker 1: that was the idea.
Speaker 2: When my dad had passed, there was a butterfly around
Speaker 2: and she thought that that was. Yeah. I'm like, I
Speaker 2: don't know, man, if that's if?
Speaker 1: If Now, if we're losing all the butterflies, what does
Speaker 1: that mean in that regard?
Speaker 3: I was very young, but Papa Buddy was telling me
Speaker 3: like it was the stars we talk to each other.
Speaker 2: Uh huh, that it's pretty cool, and yeah, good kids,
Speaker 2: you don't understand.
Speaker 3: I really want to focus in though, if butterflies just
Speaker 3: like this was the pitch for the TV show from
Speaker 3: can cussed Ben Listen.
Speaker 1: Frog Man as a show is really just about one
Speaker 1: guy in the suburbs who looks out and is like, hey, man,
Speaker 1: look there's a frog.
Speaker 2: Check it out. I haven't seen him one in a while.
Speaker 2: That's a big one. Wow. All right, So that's that's
Speaker 2: the gist of Frogman.
Speaker 3: So we can laugh and we can make fun of Ben,
Speaker 3: but the truth is back in twenty twenty one, it
Speaker 3: almost got to the finish line Frogman was a show
Speaker 3: was really and they aired some commercials, so you.

Speaker 3: city pool and there's construction done over there.
Speaker 9: You know.
Speaker 3: My my brother is involved in all that stuff. It
Speaker 3: was like, look, how he's frogs there? So they're out
Speaker 3: in the countries where they are. We moved away while
Speaker 3: the cooties and the wild boars have come into our city.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: I remember my mom telling me her theory that frogs
Speaker 1: are disappearing, and then I never looked into it, and
Speaker 1: somehow I stumbled back upon it that day. And I
Speaker 1: don't know why, put your head. We grew up on
Speaker 1: a creek, and so like our front yard was like water.
Speaker 1: It was like a creek area, and so we saw
Speaker 1: frogs all the time, and then eventually I just stopped
Speaker 1: seeing them.
Speaker 2: But now I've seen them quite a bit. There.
Speaker 7: They've gone north, they've gone north, they've gonepearing.
