Speaker 4: Well, hello, Bills fans, thanks for getting your pot on.
Thanks for telling her friend. That's how we spread the
word about the pirate ship. I'm here, Joe.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's right, I forgot.
Speaker 4: I forgot You're another Bills Like Danny came in. All
deck down is Bill's gear Kevin, of course, is a
Patriot fan, has been for.
Speaker 5: A few minutes.
Speaker 6: You go back to the Steve Grogan, Doug Flutie days, right, Yes,
that's like late eighties.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Dick McPherson day. Do you remember Bob Do you
remember Bob Bler just from high school? You don't remember
him as the quarterback of the the Patriots?
Speaker 6: What the quarterback? Yeah, that's right, Yeah, he was the quarterback.
His brother was a running.
Speaker 1: Back, his cousin Rocky. And they have the purple Heart whiskey,
an iron smoke that you can get and the money
goes to help out veterans.
Speaker 6: I'm waiting for Ai to do a voiceover for that commercial,
like in the voice of John Facenda.
Speaker 1: Yeah, whiskey. They should do it. That's a great idea.
Speaker 6: The autumn wind is a purple hard whiskey.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's funny. I don't know if you saw the
online and I hear to day three that I bring
this up, but uh, it has motivated me more than
things have in recent memory. You got it, You got it.
It's the picture that Kevin took of me on his
Garagio couch, which I will say and I have said,
that I was not in Yes, but I was drinking
and I wasn't high. You were drunk? No, no, no, no no,
Well everybody assumes, so it has nothing to do with that.
But then I started to think, because why is it,
Like that's not bothering me, but it's been on my
mind and it's been brought up, you know a couple
of times by people.
Speaker 6: Well, picture is the saying a thousand orth a thousand words.
People make assumptions. So when that picture is posted out.
Speaker 1: So, yes, it looks like you're pass out, and I was.
I was a sleep.
Speaker 6: I mean the pictures distributed to people, right, So I
went behind it.
Speaker 1: Well, let me let me see if I can kind
of make sense out of out all of this for everybody.
So I was thinking about my summer and I go,
it would be great to do a collase of summer stuff,
like I have things that I've wanted to do and
I just haven't done. And then I go, but I
have a picture of me passed out of KUCA. I
have a picture of me passed out during the opening
band of the Stones show in the dance my head down,
passed out. I have a picture of me. I don't
know that there's a picture of me, but I think
I sort of nodded off or passed out while Jordan
was driving the UTV before he rolled it that I
was just.
Speaker 6: Like, I can't get you know.
Speaker 1: And then we have the picture of Kevin's scouts and
I got three of those. Three out of the four
were definitely due to drinking. I like to think this
one was due to more being tired, but either way,
I go. Man. And then someone said to me, you know, hey,
Fairport Music Fest is coming up. You should really do
a live podcast somewhere. You should do you should tell people,
talk to people. And I looked at this person and
I said, I can't. I don't think I can. And
they're like, why I go, I don't think, I said,
I will be quite honest with you, I was thinking
of not even going to music Fest at all this
year because.
Speaker 4: I just I can't handle it, because of what Yeah,
because I can't handle it.
Speaker 1: I cannot handle it. I remember last year, and I go,
I don't. I don't think I can handle it anymore.
And I was so then I stumbled upon something and
I play this at the risk of being absolutely ridiculed,
and made tremendous fun of But I was I'm watching
I'm looking at TikTok and this video of John Mayer
comes up. But listened to.
Speaker 2: This personal thing to people.
Speaker 1: It's talking about quitting drinking.
Speaker 7: It is, and I know it's one of the most
personal things to people because try talking to someone else
about drinking.
Speaker 2: Try talking to.
Speaker 7: Someone else about how you haven't had a drink for
two years, and watch.
Speaker 2: What happens to them. I don't drink that much anyway.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? How everybody gets defensive, right
and when you start saying.
Speaker 7: And if I were to tell other people how they
could do it, it just is so particular to your
own spirit and your own psychology that it's almost impossible
to develop one way of.
Speaker 2: Explaining it to someone else.
Speaker 7: You have to fight really hard to look at it
from a critical point of view, because it's constantly pushed
on you every Friday and Saturday on social media.
Speaker 2: There is enabling going on for drinking.
Speaker 7: When your friend blacks out, if he dies, he dies,
and me saying I won't have another drink ten minutes later.
Speaker 4: Write all those things, and then it went, oh my god.
And I've been thinking about this a lot. This has
been my life since almost every weekend. Might be a
little young to say this, but I certainly got drunk
at this age fourteen until now and I'm coming up
on my fifty third birthday.
Speaker 6: Well, you did have like that one dry period back
when we worked together.
Speaker 1: Fucking for ninety days. There's still ninety days?
Speaker 4: Is that what you're doing the doctor mat No, No, No,
this was satan.
Speaker 1: I would have like a glass of wine. I would
have a glass of wine. I didn't, and then everybody.
That's where I fucked up on the doctor Matt, because
I went out with people and I ordered a glass
of wine and they told me I looked like I
needed a sandwich, and what the fuck is wrong with you?
And blah blah. And I went home and I dipped
strawberries and peanut butter and my mom was over and
I woke up swollen because of the sugar and wrinkled
and dehydrated, and I felt hungover and I hadn't drank,
but I would drink a glass of wine when I
was on Doc.
Speaker 4: Now, are you gonna have one before tomorrow night? Before
you get out there? No, take the age way to
make sure that you're you're laser focused.
Speaker 1: I will not. I never feel like I need that
for those things.
Speaker 4: I never I saw your setate finger like you might
want to.
Speaker 1: I never. I never. I don't know. I never feel
like I used to. I don't want that, but I
never felt like it did.
Speaker 6: You don't want that?
Speaker 1: But listen, this is interesting. When he walked to Island,
he's talking about drinking.
Speaker 7: What if I woke up every morning on Friday and
Saturday and Sunday, I put my feet on the ground
and I just went not hungover and put it on
social media every day? You know, like that would be
an influence to people, because I think you forget that's
an option, and if you look at drinking the way
you would look at anything else, which is risk reward.
Speaker 2: What am I giving up? What am I getting?
Speaker 4: And I gotta say, the more I start thinking about that,
this almost makes me want to stop. It makes I
love drinking so much. This is where I'm torn. I
love it so much that I don't do you understand
what I'm saying?
Speaker 1: Like I love it. I love it for the social aspect.
I love it for hanging out. I love when I
know that I've hit this certain point and then I'm
as Kevin has put, I'm billing. I love that. I
love fun. I most of the assholes I hang out
with drink and party and do that. But then I'm
listening to this and I go, why has this been
so in my head? And then I stumbled upon them.
Speaker 7: Some of the worst odds, and I just looked at him,
like I have one night when yeah, man, I just
went deep one night.
Speaker 2: I remember being like, Okay, what happens if I keep going.
Speaker 4: I've been there. I swear to god, I had been
there Saturday night and.
Speaker 1: You were were pretty drunk. Well, here's the thing.
Speaker 4: You don't drink every day.
Speaker 1: You're like me. You you you pretty much go through
the week.
Speaker 4: Maybe you have one here, I had one there, but
then Saturday and Friday coming.
Speaker 6: It's the long to being that guy in the meme
we started It's Fatday, they started dancing.
Speaker 4: Going to drink tonight next day, you know, Friday and Saturday,
and make up for lost time during the week.
Speaker 1: Yes, I mean I've I've gotten to the point where
I don't.
Speaker 4: Like drinking during the week, okay, And that we weren't
recording on Tuesdays. I was getting drunk because I have
friends that are off on Wednesday, and I'm like, I
gotta cut this out too, because Wednesday is a pain
of the assid works.
Speaker 6: So it's funny you mentioned that. So I've you know,
I'm being I'm forty four, so most of my friends
you know, range in that age, right, And I've talked
to more empty nesters this summer and more like you know,
family people typically don't drink around their kids that I
that I know, but more empty nesters and more single
guys like, yeah, I don't even drink anymore. This I
think people just a lot of people I don't. I
don't know. These are people who actually like smoke weed
or take gummies either. In case you're wondering, well maybe
it's a legalization of pot. They just like, no, doesn't
do anything for me. I I've wasted too much money.
I don't want to do it.
Speaker 1: People are like, I do like a glass of wine,
and I do like I like glasses of wine with dinner,
But I like, like, if I'm gonna sit out on
a patio, the problem with me is one leads to two,
two leads to for too many. Yeah, I mean it
just does. It's like that slope ghost.
Speaker 4: We just sit down in the grade and we start
shooting the ship and it starts, It starts flowing right,
it starts. You know, I'm gonna we'll have a drink.
Speaker 1: We'll just shoot the ship. Well, here's the thing, like,
get out, we're have as your drink's gone. When we
went to Blue toed Sdary, there was a part of
me after having a couple, I'm like, well we should leave.
I see you get up to order another one, and
I'm inside, I'm going.
Speaker 4: Yes, right because and I go what is that? And
I fox up because listen to this.
Speaker 7: And it wasn't like dark, it wasn't sinister. I went,
I always stop here?
Speaker 2: What if?
Speaker 7: What if I keep going? It was really kind of
like an oddly like playful kind of a thing. And
then I went, oh, I'm a I'm done, And did
you go though?
Speaker 2: Did you keep going? Listen?
Speaker 7: I have the most amazing last night of my life
drinking story. It was Drake's thirtieth birthday party, and I
made quite a fool of myself. Really oh, and it
took me weeks to stop doing this. Every morning I
woke up and then I had a conversation with myself.
It was. It was like six days into the hangover.
I was in my sixth day of the hangover. That's
what the hangover was. And I looked out the window
and I went, Okay, John, what percentage of your potential
would you like to have?
Speaker 1: Okay, what percentage of your potential would you like to have? Now?
He breaks it down in a way, and I go, hmm,
I don't know. I know the answer we should give?
What what is the answer we should get? Yes, that
is not the answer I want to give, Like, it's not,
it's not.
Speaker 6: I think about all the aspects of life, where how
much are your potential?
Speaker 4: Well, he's going risk reward you the risk way. I
always a reward for being drunk, way fucking out waste.
I had a night back in the spring that I.
Speaker 1: I lost friends. I was drunk. I lost friends.
Speaker 6: Lost for like you lost where they were?
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, I ruined friendships.
Speaker 4: Okay, so no more.
Speaker 1: I did something I said ship that I lost friends,
and then the rest of the night is sort of
a blur. And what I can remember I don't want
to remember. I don't I'm embarrassed, I'm ashamed, and I
don't want anything to do with it. I wish I
could just scrub it all away, but I can't, and
I go, that's what happens. And sometimes my life has
changed so much in the past couple of years that
sometimes you focus on the wrong stuff and I get angry.
And when I get angry and I'm drunk, it isn't
fun right, And I'm just I'm listening to this, and
I go, maybe I'm better off just fucking saying see you.
Speaker 7: Because if you say you'd like sixty and you'd like
to spend the other forty percent having.
Speaker 2: Fun, that's fine.
Speaker 1: That's where I'd be.
Speaker 7: What percentage of what is available to you would you
like to make happen?
Speaker 2: And there's no wrong answer. What is it?
Speaker 7: And I went, I said I want? And then the
voice in my head said, okay, do you know what
that means? And I went, we don't have to talk anymore.
I get it.
Speaker 2: Let's go.
Speaker 7: And that next year I did four tours, I w
two bands. I was happy on airplanes. So what happens
when you stop drinking the level goes. It feels like
boredom at first.
Speaker 4: Thank you, it feels like boredom. I think for me
it would be different. If I didn't, if I actually
got hung over from drinking, Like, I don't get hungover
everything I drank it tonight. The worst thing is gonna
happen the next day is I'm gonna need to take
it like a thirty minute nap, but like three o'clock
in the afternoon, and then I'm good.
Speaker 6: I got a friend like that too, because I don't
get hungover. I have a friend who's never been hungover,
because I think it's my genetics.
Speaker 1: Because I've never been hung over. They probably have like
a yeah, they probably take a lot of anesthesia or something,
have a high tolerance.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think if I felt that misery the next day,
it might be a different story. But I don't.
Speaker 6: I don't feel it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have felt the misery for sure.
Speaker 2: But if you stick with it, the line goes.
Speaker 7: The line straightens out, and it goes kind of low, right, like, oh,
I'm not having these high highs. But if you work,
you can bring the whole line up. Well, do you
know what I mean?
Speaker 1: So your whole life is better, is what you say,
Like you all of a sudden everything's happier.
Speaker 4: It's not this up and down. So I don't know
that I can give up. I can give up drinking.
I don't want to give up drinking.
Speaker 1: But I'm watching this and I go, it's not the
hangover for me anymore, Kevin. The thing for me is
all the other shit around it. It's not so much
the hangover, it's the ruining. A relationship with somebody is
never stuck with me. Other embarrassing things have stuck with me,
and I go, those are the things I don't want anymore.
Now I'm in total control and I should know when
to leave, but I feel like I just can at times.
And I know with this event coming up, I'm like,
I don't know.
Speaker 4: And that's the thing too, is I get to a
point I think a lot of times where I know
this is where I'm at. Yes, and I can finish
this one.
Speaker 1: Yes, and it's time to time night. Yeah.
Speaker 4: And there's times that I just keep going.
Speaker 1: I just keep going, usually past that point, and that
I don't know why. It's just something that's been and
it's been a bit of a battle. You're right, because
I forgot that I had it a moment like this
from when we work together.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and then for those ninety days then your partners
stopped drinking for a while, and then he started trying
out a little bit and started getting cranky in the morning,
and the boss was like, you know, what do you
got to drink every morning? I go, Actually, if you
were paying attention, I didn't say that was No one
has had a drink on the show. Yeah three months?
Really go Yeah, if you weren't listening to serious exam
or your girlfriend down the hall, you know that, but
you don't listen to us. But I mean, I don't
know if it was my upbringing or what not, but
I've never had that kind of taste for alcohol.
Speaker 4: Oh now I got a shitty upbringing.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'll say this, I
definitely do because for me, I'm saying that, I know
you're not. But what I'm saying is I absolutely I mean,
my father has said alcohol was glorified in our house.
I don't know. There was just something about this that
I went, I don't know, I need to find a
way to cut back. I certainly am gonna have to
write with my son, but it's these big moments. What
I'm more concerned about is you're not gonna be able
to do the things you've done right you're not gonna
be able to go out on a Friday night, and
all of a sudden you've lost Friday night and it's
Saturday morning somehow, But it doesn't matter. You can lay
around do nothing and recover. Those days are gone. But
so now it's gonna they're not out.
Speaker 4: I mean, he's gonna be I understand, but my very
self sufficient I'm not gonna go out. You can't do
it every weekend. No, But it's not like you're bringing
a newborn into the house.
Speaker 6: I don't know about that.
Speaker 1: You're not bringing a newborn into the house, but you
are bringing somebody who's of the same age of when
I started drinking a lot and.
Speaker 4: I got drinking.
Speaker 1: Buddy, you don't want to do that, and you don't
want to and I can't have these where you're coming
home and the next day is lost because you're just
exhausted and you don't feel like doing anything, and you're
probably a little embarrassed when you you ever get like
one of these things like oh God, did I say
that to somebody last night or whatever it is. You
can't have that because you got somebody who's depending on you. Know,
you can be functioning what My concern is is he
goes somewhere for a weekend, an overnight or whatever, and
it turns into Fairport Music Fest for me. Yeah, all
of a sudden, now.
Speaker 6: Jesus is waiting at the airport. We're going to pick
them up.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm face down in a puddle somewhere, and
I go, that's the thing. And I started reading this
book called The War of Art. We've all heard of
the Art of War. This is by Stephen Pressfield, and
it talks about everything we do to destroy ourselves and
everything is resistance to what you really want to do.
And I go, I got all.
Speaker 4: This shit that I've said on this podcast that I
want to do in these projects and all this I
haven't done it because most of the time it's just
easier to go have a drink, hang out with a friend.
It's all resistance. It's all resistant that I'll wait till tomorrow.
I don't feel like and I go, maybe I'm fucking
myself up. And I saw that maybe I should stop drinking.
But then I really, I don't know that I can. Well,
I guess, I guess the entire intent of the picture
now has been perfectly laid out, because that's what all
the intend to do. You've been a fat fuck lately.
I want you to lose some weight.
Speaker 1: Well that's the other thing, is I so so I
wanted you to stop drinking. I looked at myself and
I go, hold, I mean fuck, did I put out
fucking wait? So I went the next day for a
three mile walk and then I went to the gym
and I started this odd workout, but a workout I
used to do that was, you know, lunges with press
you know, shoulder presses and uh skis. I don't know
if you've ever done the square where you raise the
arms and that's hard.
Speaker 6: Yes, I have a total home gym. Yeah that those
are hard.
Speaker 1: They're hard. So I uh, I went and I did that,
and yesterday I went and did the three mile walk again,
and today there was resistance. But I got back to
the gym and I did that same workout again because
I that fucking picture, and I go, I just can't
be this foot of the match.
Speaker 6: Huh did you put the picture on your fridge?
Speaker 1: No, I don't.
Speaker 5: I don't want to look at it.
Speaker 4: It's gonna be on a T shirt for that. It's
not that picture so much as it was when I
looked like, uh Bartolo cologne.
Speaker 1: Yeah, big fucking gut pitch.
Speaker 4: I didn't think you look that big in that. I mean,
just bed away.
Speaker 6: You look like a birl with sticks and shoes. Dude,
I'm not gonna lie to you. Stephanie cut that out
and send it to us with a white backdrop.
Speaker 1: Like, oh yeah, well that was that was the couch.
That was the couch O the pic. The picture. The
pitching was worse to me. Okay, yeah, I just look bad. Well,
so I go, I can't do this now. I mean
it could be just the angle I'm shooting at it.
It was half in the bag, say all kinds of things.
It doesn't matter. It doesn't like a girl is more
concerned to me. I was got like a girl. Some
of these girls will out throw you. I uh so,
I just like, fuck man, I don't want to.
Speaker 6: So on the flip side, Yeah, you know tonight when
we go out and throw, you go out and throw
the first pitch. Yeah at the Red Wings game. Let's say, hypothetically,
this is how movies start. Right, you have a cocktail
before you go out.
Speaker 4: Kevin wants me to go I'm there, I don't watch you.
Sometimes sometimes you just need it kind of so.
Speaker 6: You get out there just to loose it up, and
you can out there, you throw one hundred and ten
mile an hour strike and all of a sudden, the
Red Wing's like, yeah, we need a starting pitch, and
like David Wills, you go out throw a perfect hit
and all of a sudden, Now, all of a sudden, yeah,
I guess I can't stop.
Speaker 8: Can a.
Speaker 1: Somebody?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, because as they're looking.
Speaker 4: For a three year old control thrown at one hundred
and ten miles an hour barely across my backyard, dodging dog.
Speaker 6: Shit, I didn't see that. But I mean, I'll say
this as an old friend Bill Moran once told me
back in the day. He said, if you want to
do something, if you really want to do something, you will,
and if you don't, you'll find an excuse.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I believe that if you really want to, you will,
and if you don't, you'll find an excuse. And there
are times where I have I have allowed myself to
uh project that on other people's situations which you can't
really control or anything, and it pitches me and then
I'm mad at this person because they're not doing what
I think they should do, but it's not my life.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and as I depend on the receiving end of.
Speaker 1: That, Yes, I know. That's why I brought up what
is your problem?
Speaker 6: I don't think you were drunk, though I think I wasn't.
Speaker 1: But John Mayer does have this song. I love this song.
Speaker 6: Who says I just heard this on the way over
with a story in front of it.
Speaker 1: Yes, well they did the live video.
Speaker 6: Do you want to hear the story?
Speaker 1: What was the story?
Speaker 6: He's like that you just played the story about him saying, yeah,
I don't want.
Speaker 1: To drink because the video was about going out in
New York City with my friends. It was a couple.
It was almost ten years ago.
Speaker 6: But like he prefaces the song and was on the
Life channel, I'm serious and he goes, you know who says,
I can't get stoved.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 6: So I'm like, I'm hearing these two messages from John
Mayer and I'm going, Okay, did you replace one with
the other.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm wondering too. And I thought, and I
kind of thought, I need to figure out the wee
thing anyway, because uh, don't give your well, I think
it's a happier, more healthy thing to do. But I
like an iggregation. I just do.
Speaker 4: I've never been that, but I never gotten a month
he's drinking, I.
Speaker 1: Have gotten hungry where I have come home like that was.
I was fat when we did the break room and
I used to go home after drinking and I would
create like sandwiches with whatever was in the fridz.
Speaker 4: And we had a friend who used to go home
and he would find for shoot and put it into
the microwave with cheese and it would.
Speaker 1: Melt it down, eggs and jelly. Again, Billy, there is
a line of this song that always makes me throw
this out here for a moment.
Speaker 2: Don't remember you again?
Speaker 1: But then again, I don't remember you right, And I
bet I can't tell you how many times that that's
the thing. And I this.
Speaker 6: Songs about Taylor Swift, and you write some well.
Speaker 1: Somebody said now that he does have a song about
Taylor Swift. Yeah, I think I think it's uh paper doll,
I think it's about her. I think it is.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Somebody did say to me in the Stone Show, you
remember every song and every and everything, and I'm like,
they don't. And I probably should. I don't know.
Speaker 4: It's all self reflection. I know that's the thing.
Speaker 6: You were absolutely right, by the way. I know a
guy you know him too. His name is Mike the Georgia.
He worked in the Channel thirteen. He's a big Stones fan,
so he went and saw them like ten fifteen years
ago to show he's seen him many times since. And
remember when Matthews East and Grille was open. The bartender
was Carl Falk, another guy used to work with and
Carl goes, hey, so what songs did they play? Mike
from memory went down and wrote down on a napkin
every single they supposed to have played thirty songs in order.
He goes, I think he's gonna go to the internet.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, he just wrote him out and
then from them they check it against him, and they
checked it.
Speaker 6: They go, it's amazing. He got fifteen minutes till Lopner.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so yes, that's something I couldn't do sober,
but I would have probably appreciated things anyway. If you're
thinking to stop drinking, there's benefits to it. If you
are looking for a way to get past resistance that's
holding you back from living the full life and I
and it's every it's everything I say, but maybe in
a more palap paddle. Uh, yes, that you can actually
you know, not have to go well, it sounds like
food weirdo. Shit. The War of Art is great? Really
is great?
Speaker 2: Short?
Speaker 6: Are you finished with it?
Speaker 1: No, it's a really short book. I only picked it
up today and I read for like a half hour
and I think I got through like fifty to sixty pages.
So it's a quick read all that, you know. All right,
we will right now.
Speaker 6: I'm reading the Big Book of Belichick. Right now we're
on linebackers.
Speaker 1: I'm reading and ham sounds pouring.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: We will take a moment. How well, how do you
know you care about something? How do you know if
you really care about something? We'll get to that right
after this. Oh why died I tell you about?
Speaker 6: So?
Speaker 1: I MJ Dispensary. They're at nine hundred Jefferson Road in
the regional market Sweet nine on two. Kevin and I
were over there. We did the life Pike. Yes, somebody
had dropped off here prior to that, because I had
talked about not being able to sleep well. Gummies that
are supposed to help you sleep, So last night I
just again having trouble falling asleep. So one o'clock I
get up and I take half of the gummy. And
this is why you need if you're going to do
these sorts of things, you need to go talk to
MJ Dispensary because they'll be able to steer you in
a direction. Because I felt groggy and couldn't get going today,
just groggy, like I think. I finally peel myself out
a bed around nine point thirty and even then I
was like, I made two pots of coffee just to
try to get myself back to normal. Everything just took longer.
It was slower and all that, And I'm like, an MJ.
They know everything. When you let a friend steer you,
go talk to the bud tenders at MJ Dispensary because
they will steer you in the right direction for whatever
you need. If you have anxiety, if you want are
looking for energy, if you're looking for focus, if they've
got things that'll get you exactly what you need for
everything that's going on. And I will tell you that
relying on friends it's nice, it's very caring and kind
of them. Go talk to the experts because everybody's different.
And what was so cool was when we had Issa,
who's a bud tender on she goes gummies hit me differently.
Everybody's different, So you can go talk to them about, hey,
I've tried this, and everything's gonna be a little bit
of an experimentation, but you're gonna have a better shot
when you go to MJ Dispensary and talk to the
experts nine hundred Jefferson Road and they will do delivery
to you and you can find them online at Mjdispensary

Speaker 8: Oh, I'm in a good mood. Bill our wings hot.
Speaker 1: You know that I do, And I will say this
about you. I don't know I've ever seen you in
a bad mood.
Speaker 8: Oh, thank you.
Speaker 1: I think I'm sure. I'm sure at times we're all human,
we have that human experience. But I if I were
to think of people who I've never seen in a
bad mood and always seem happy, it would be you
know what, it's you and another McQuaid guy who no, no,
Jesus no.
Speaker 4: Kevin mcgred, that moody guy. Well, everybody loves Kevin, but
I've seen some bad moods with that dude. Whoa have
I seen it?
Speaker 1: And so is that?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 1: No? I was thinking Jim.
Speaker 8: Murkley, of course, Yeah, perma smile.
Speaker 1: He's got perma smile. He's lost all this way.
Speaker 4: You know what, He's got the cold tub in his
house where he goes and he actually gets into the
freezing cold tub.
Speaker 8: Oh I'm out on that cold tub game.
Speaker 1: Cold hot wings and cold tub. Oh my god. You
know what a challenge that would be. It's like riding
on or something. How can you eat in a cold tub?
How many can you? Guys?
Speaker 6: You're only supposed to be in there for like three minutes?
Speaker 1: Yeah, but mostly yeah, you're only supposed to be in
there for three minutes. But it's it's it's like thirty
two degrees. Yeah, it's freezing, it's ice, it's it's the
whole thing.
Speaker 4: And I'm sure some of the players do it. It
gets rid of your your fat, right, But if we
did hot wings in a cold Dan Mace, maybe not
this season. I'm just saying, you know, just a new thing,
a new wrinkle, a new wrinkle.
Speaker 8: Let's table, let's table that for next year.
Speaker 1: Line just line them all up.
Speaker 4: Yeah, these guys have been uh we practiced my pitching
strikes strike.
Speaker 1: Yeah, at like seven miles away they were bowling pens.
He was heading it was But the h what time
should I show up tomorrow for you to or today?
Speaker 8: Well, I need you to need you to meet me
at the gate that leads down to the field at
the Red Wings dug out on the first base side.
There's a gate on the home plate side, home plate
side of the Red Wings dugout, and I need you
to meet me there by six fifteen tomorrow at the latest.
Speaker 1: Perfect perfect. Can someone come out and video this? Yes, okay, wonderful.
That's it. That's all. Those are the only questions I
had other than that. It's and it's plate Night, Plate Knight.
Speaker 8: The first seven hundred and fifty fans are going to
get a plates jersey. It's also our duel of the dishes. Yeah,
battling the Syracuse, the dreaded syracuset potatoes.
Speaker 1: You should stomp us. Yeah, what if I brought a
soft potato and stomped on it. They can't do that
on the mound.
Speaker 8: Well yeah, yeah, that close to game time. Mcgroundscer might
have an issue with it.
Speaker 4: We'll do a bang.
Speaker 1: Of course, I'm trying to stay in there.
Speaker 8: I'm trying to stand on their good side.
Speaker 1: Of course they will. I don't blame you at all,
I am uh.
Speaker 8: But also Happy hour tomorrow, so fans get here early
five thirty to six thirty.
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, you're drinking. There it goes. We
might have to show back zero.
Speaker 4: What time is that Happy Hour five incident?
Speaker 8: Free started at five thirty, five thirty thirty.
Speaker 1: I will be there at five thirty.
Speaker 4: He'll be there at four point thirty, waiting in the
parking lot. Hold on, I'll be there at five thirty. Yeah,
I can't wait. Now you're right now, Now I'm done.
I just did this whole thing on how I've been
thinking of considering.
Speaker 1: Giving up drinking.
Speaker 8: Oh okay, but.
Speaker 4: Quitter. I know, well, I love drinking so much, but
I go sometimes I take it too far, Mace.
Speaker 1: And then and then that becomes a problem, and.
Speaker 8: I don't want that's, you know, everything my issue.
Speaker 1: That's right, and I always try to think self awareness.
Self awareness is important.
Speaker 8: Yes, here's a little suggestion for you. You can go on,
go on my game plan. I only allow myself to
have and I only drink on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.
If I have a drink, it can only be on Thursday's,
Fridays and Saturdays.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right?
Speaker 8: That way, and it makes it makes those a couple
of beers that I'll have on if I decide to
do that on those days, makes them more enjoyable than
if you do it every night.
Speaker 4: I think it's because he's a notre dame guy in
not an NFL.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 8: I think moderation, moderation.
Speaker 1: He's right about moderation. The problem with me sometimes makes
is I hit a certain point and I'll go, well,
I should really stop here, but I'm having too much
fun and like two or three beers, let's say three
or four beers, to be honest, turns into eighteen.
Speaker 8: That's a good effort.
Speaker 4: That's what happened started.
Speaker 1: No, what time you get up in the morning, No,
usually afternoon. Depends on the day. It depends in the day.
Speaker 4: But I went to the Stone Show with my brother
and I think we had eighteen beers before the show.
Speaker 1: Not a good not a good plan. Not a good plan.
Speaker 8: But that's an extenuating.
Speaker 1: Circums, extenuating circumstances. I understand, yes, you know you're trying
to be Keith Richards. I get it. But but this
this sounds fun. And by the way, is it what's
the name of the bar.
Speaker 8: The Jack Daniels tenth Inning Bar.
Speaker 1: Jack Daniels Tenthoning Bar. Thank you. I knew there was
a name with it. And uh, that's a great spot
to just go and stand. It really is. I mean,
you've done such a nice job over there at Innovative Field.
It's very, very impressive and I'm excited. Yeah, you do
have a good team. You have a great team over there.
Everybody I've dealt with the with the wings, they all
seem to have perma smile. Oh yeah, they always sounded
they're excited. The social media stuff you do is great.
So there you go, and uh, I'm excited to throw
out the first pitch tomorrow. And my son is even
coming before he uh heads out to Saint Louis for
his master's degree, so he's gonna come to more holy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm disappointed my son shows hockey practice. But what
are you gonna do with this?
Speaker 1: The priorities? I get it, prior artist, Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 8: Yeah, come on, he's got plenty of times.
Speaker 1: He's got a tournament.
Speaker 4: He's got a tournament this weekend, so he wants to
get one skated with his team before he plays.
Speaker 1: It's understandable. I don't like it either, Mace.
Speaker 4: I don't like any of that.
Speaker 1: He's fifteen.
Speaker 6: Drive me home, Gordon Bombay.
Speaker 1: Well, I will see you then tomorrow at six fifteen.
And I greatly appreciate this.
Speaker 8: Well, I thought you were guy was going to see
at five thirty five.
Speaker 1: I will five thirty, I'll be.
Speaker 8: You'll be at the gate. You'll stumble over to the gate.
Speaker 1: By six, I will not stumble. I will have one
and done. I will done one in water, maybe two.
Speaker 4: I am I in charge of keeping you one?
Speaker 8: Is that where we're at this point, they're only there
are only two dollars all.
Speaker 1: Right, two.
Speaker 4: Well, I assume it's like the like the other happy
hour at the other sporting event that's in town. They're
a little smaller. Yeah, so you can have fourest forest two.
All right, very very I don't like this already, Mace,
I will see you and I will be sober tomorrow.
Speaker 8: Awesome, all right, all right, I look forward to it, guys,
Thank you, and go wings wings.
Speaker 4: I love that idea of hot wings and a cold top.
I think that would be like a really fun most.
I bet Merkley could kill that too, because I think
Merkley loves his wings, doesn't he? I don't uh Merty
was a wing guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, he is a wing guy, and he does
sit in that tub for three minutes.
Speaker 4: He might be able to win that. Yeah, Now do
you go distance in the tub?
Speaker 1: You have to go how many wings can you eat?
Up to three minutes in the tub? Up to three minutes?
So you know, you could go in for a minute
and eat ten wings. But somebody stays in for three
minutes and eats thirty, You're out, you lost, you know
what I mean? You get up to three minutes? What
I oh, I see what you're saying.
Speaker 4: What if I eat twenty five and a minute a half,
but the guy stays it for thirty only eats fifteen.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, all right, there's there's there's flaws
to this thinking. Figure it out. Yeah, a couple of
drinks will figure it out. Lap a couple of drinks
and we'll figure it out. Danny sent a story about
a picture twenty five year old picture for uh, is
he with the Pittsburgh No, he's again the Reds. Yeah,
his name is hundred.
Speaker 6: Green is an All Star?
Speaker 1: Is that really his name?
Speaker 6: Hunter Green?
Speaker 1: Because that's a color.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Hunter Kelly to Hunter Kelly.
Speaker 1: I get Hunter Kelly, but I'm saying Hunter green is
a color.
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, Hunter and Kelly are both greens, right, and
so Hunter green is also called Yeah, parent's probably had
a sense of humor.
Speaker 4: Hunter and Green are shave. Hunter and Kelly are shaves
of green. Hunter Green is a green.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kelly Green would be the other. But Hunter greens.
This just struck me now as I read this. But
he wound up. This is so many flaws in this thing.
But let me see if I can find where the
sky he puked on the mountain. It looked like once
he puked through his mit. Yes, and another time he
just opened his mouth and puked. But listen to the
announcer when he pukes during a game. Let's see if
this is.
Speaker 9: The twenty one game hit streak, but lifetime against Green,
he's one par eight. The one hit is a single
Hunter Green, who got sick during the course of his
last start when he battled the incredibly hot conditions. After
the game, said he thought he overhydrated, and I think
just had a similar scene of about with illness on
the mound that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he threw up a similar scene because I'm going
he pukes right away. If I'm in the announcers booth,
I'm going.
Speaker 4: Wow, he threw up again, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Like something This guy was like so nonchalant and professional, Bob.
Speaker 6: You announcing that like a major league.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing. People can get themselves very worked
up and throw up before a big event.
Speaker 4: Yes, Josh Allen does for the game, Josh Allen, I think,
does does he really?
Speaker 6: I think he said Jim Kelly did.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jim Kelly puked before every game.
Speaker 4: He pukes before the huddle in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: I think yeah, But I thought sometimes I don't know
how you can't. You're getting hit in the moment, and
like if you ate at a certain time. I mean that,
but I think these guys do it out of almost
a nervousness. I heard that Henry Fonda threw up before
every live performance if he was doing a Broadway player
up until the age of seventy five, he would throw
up before live performance. And I think that's when you're like,
really care And I started to think, I go, there
has been nothing in my life that I cared of
that I actually threw up about it.
Speaker 6: Well, I've heard people like who race like five k's
or marathons throw up before races. Cross country guys would
throw up before races. Really they got really and they
knew they weren't gonna win, but they would just get
all like jacked up, jacked up. I think it's because
they want to get the start. They jumped off the start. Yeah, yeah,
just the nerves, the butterflies get Yeah, like they're.
Speaker 1: Like, like, I've had butterflies and nervousness. I guess I've
had that where you go I feel like I could
throw I'm sorry, that's not nice. Then we need a
camera for outside that was terrible. It was you'd rather
get hits so hard to throw up? Or would you
rather ge hits the harder, sh it yourself. I'd rather
throw up. I'd rather throw up. Yeah, ship yourself. You're
stuck in you Oh and then it's like because then
it dries. You got to get in the shower, and
there chunks of it.
Speaker 4: In the famous photo from the one of the outdoor
games in Canada where he lacked, the goalie for the
Canucks had a big brown stand on the bottom of
his white goalie pants and looked likely he had a
big turd in there, and Roberto Lelango posted that at
least three times a year, never.
Speaker 1: Forget you shit your pants? Did he? I don't think
he should his pants?
Speaker 8: Well?
Speaker 6: Sure, look, look I know Mark Slurth used to like
literally whizz in his pants. Yes, during games? Yes, on purpose?
Speaker 1: Yes? Well, well you used to hear about guys going
on the sidelines that said they would just pee right there.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they didn't care.
Speaker 10: No.
Speaker 4: Well, also, I got to think at times I wonder
if if you have to go, if you get let's
say you're a receiver, you're in that point, I could
go another ten minutes before I have to go to
the bathroom.
Speaker 1: Right, but you're starting to feel the pressure you take
a hit, I'm thinking it squirts out of you.
Speaker 6: We're trigging all that gatorade and stuff on the sidelines too.
It could happen. Those electro lights.
Speaker 4: These are the football player a Bills player on the answer. Yeah,
we don't need to break down on the four six. No,
you ever got hit so hard you pissed yourself?
Speaker 1: You pissed yourself, or you wind up going to the
sideline and throwing up, or did you ever like throw
up in your mouth, you know, when you get hit
so old.
Speaker 4: I would assume they probably don't throw up as much
now on the sidelines because that is a symptom of
concussion and they see you throw up.
Speaker 1: The sidelines protocol it depends on where in the game.
Speaker 6: They also have the tent, so they could just put
up the tent. You know, before the tent, there was
a punter from the Chargers who to take a leak,
and like, you're a punter and your team's on offense,
you could go out there at any point. You can't
just take off, so they like so the Traders all
held up towels while the guy like melt down and
took a leak on the sideline, like right in front
of like the tape the tape case.
Speaker 4: I'm surprised they don't have some sort of semblance of
a port a potty and that would be like a
great thing to have in the sideline. Just have it
there in case, yeah, why why not?
Speaker 1: It could be a line of sight and issue with
the fans.
Speaker 6: I can't stay over the presser.
Speaker 4: You don't have to put a porge on it and
just put something a little you could put it, see you, Yeah,
just walk in and at the level of the stadium.
Speaker 6: See a player walking with a newspaper. Got to take
a ship. Well think about it because like like the
media pays attention to everything, right, So if that blue
tent goes up, oh yeah, Josh Allen to Ted trying
to take a leak, you can admit that in the
press conference, maybe only if you win. If you lose,
then you can't sit well, yisky's going with as I
see where this one's going now, Like like there was
a lighted Eddie Gibvens Sunday where Stephen willy Beeman was
the third string quarterback played by Jamie Fox. He throws
up because al al Patino, Hey, your puke glass game,
you had a hell of a game, start a tradition,
so all now of a sudden it becomes it becomes
like a good luck chart.
Speaker 1: I know, I can't imagine let yourself throw up as
a blaming but I think that if you get yourself
so jazzed up. And we know these guys dude to
play this game like you, I think they get themselves
to another level of something because they don't even not
that they don't feel pain, they certainly do, but the
amount of pain they're feeling, I don't know that. Do
you understand adrenaline where that also helps you probably gets
you thrown up?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, absolutely throw up after each meal. That's what
works for me.
Speaker 6: Well, that that Chappelle show sketch where it's guys' night
out and they get in to a fight and Dave
Chappelle starts crying.
Speaker 1: Man, yeah all right, well, uh cry Danny has thoughts
on the Buffalo beils.
Speaker 4: I'll be in the baths paper what you're talking about.
Speaker 1: It's not that bad. I think Danny's got some thoughts
on the Buffalo bills. And then I want to hear
about his interview with Rac and Randy. We had Rac
and Randy on yesterday, and did you want up interviewing him?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 1: I go, oh my god, he was waiting for your call.
Speaker 6: I told him. I said he could be around. So
I called him and he, oh, sorry, Bud, I was
going the lawn two.
Speaker 4: Hours on three one five, got big lunch.
Speaker 6: Yes, so I been to Rady's house. Unless he's push
mowing it. Maybe he's push mowing it.
Speaker 1: He might be Yeah, that is uh for sure. Let's
tell you about our friends at Iron Smoke Whiskey Iron
Smoke Whiskey where we mentioned this earlier, the Purple Heart
whiskey from the Bliers, and that would be Rocky because
he won the Purple Heart. How about you go to Vietnam,
you get you know, like you get shot in the
thigh and then your foot is basically the four like
it hurt? I think it it altered his foot, let's
put it that way, by a grenade. And I go,
this is absolutely insane.
Speaker 6: You end up becoming a Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1: Run become a Hall of fame running back with four
Super Bowl runs, showing you that nothing is impossible. But
Iron Smoke Whiskey.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: It is the second batch of the Purple Heart that
is available, and you can get that at Ironsmoked Distillery
dot com. You know what. A lot of times too,
Iron Smoke Distillery tries to help liquor stores and things,
and they would prefer that you buy any Iron Smoke
products from the liquor store because they're gonna get a
little bit of a taste of that as well, which
I always think is kind of cool. But then you
can go over there and you can hang out at
Iron Smoke Distillery. Like tonight, you've got Silver Arrowband. The
Silver Hour Band is a collective of wedding and event
artists who create and capture memories.
Speaker 6: Oh wow, okay, so they.
Speaker 1: Kind of playing all that fun stuff. And then our
friend Steve Bartlotta will be there on Thursday, August fifteenth
for the Steve Bartlotta's All Star Jam, and I think
there's a sign up sheet and you can go up
there and jam. You go there and sing a sing
a song and.
Speaker 6: Or pick it or if you bring an instrument right,
you could probably play with them too.
Speaker 1: And have a whole lot of fun. And you can
have a delicious cocktail like the peacemaker. If you're just
a spectator like man, have no musical talent, I'm bringing
my trumpet. Would be so great if someone did.
Speaker 6: Bugle he and Mike mullane, but they would make it work.
He and Mike Mullan are like a Beatles encyclopedia. So
if you'd like your if you love to sing Beatles, yeah,
they'll they'll know it.
Speaker 1: That's great. Iron Smoke Distillery and Iron Smokedistillery dot com.
And right here in Fairport, New York.
Speaker 9: Baby mm hm.
Speaker 11: M m h m hm, A gypsy wind is blowing
wong tonight.
Speaker 6: Sky's started and.
Speaker 12: The time is right.
Speaker 1: I'm still you're telling me you have to go before
you leave this something you should know, Yeah, lady, something
you should know.
Speaker 6: I'll see.
Speaker 1: Are you smiling in the.
Speaker 4: Sam so I talk about thinking like I always see
your long half flat. I think I've made it pretty
clear that I love busting balls, but I don't like
being mean. And when what really made me feel somewhat
good in saying that was when I had people I
grew up with in the studio a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 1: I think the episode is I called it growing up
with Bill. But this one girl and she said to me,
you were a bully. You were always a bully to me.
And I said, well, I made fun of you for
watching soap operas, and I used to come up with
scenarios in your life that it would be a soap opera.
Speaker 4: And she actually said, that's true.
Speaker 1: You were never mean. You were never mean, And I went, yeah,
I just was busting your chops. I knew what I
was doing. I was poking fun of you, but I
wasn't saying like I always thought. A bully was your
fat You're ugly, you know what I mean? Hey, have
another cupcake? I don't know something, you know what I mean?
Speaker 6: Yeah, punching somebody in the locker.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I go that that wasn't me.
Speaker 6: You were breaking stone.
Speaker 1: I broke stones. You like soap operas and so then
and you were talking about the children. Yeah, I was like,
it's all a guiding light or whatever it was. And
I used to like that.
Speaker 6: I remember that.
Speaker 1: I used to so I used to try to come
up with themes. Yeah, And I didn't like I was
just a dick and I was God.
Speaker 4: I had to be like twelve thirteen years old, like
it say has been a lifetime of ad D eighty
HD and nutties, the.
Speaker 6: Kids, before cell phones, before internet. We had a career
on our own fund. Yes we did. We did, and
I did and we played outside.
Speaker 1: Right, So uh, I like. I like the fact that
I'm not mean, but I think what I'm about to
do could be fairly mean. Fairly mean. Okay, maybe not,
because I will say this, this is and what it do?
People say, this is my truth, this is the truth.
I'm speaking about stuff from behind. So yesterday I got
a text from our friend Joe Briccado a couple of
weeks ago.
Speaker 6: You see my jean jacket anywhere I lift it at
your podcast.
Speaker 1: So he's something about his cousin. His cousin Tony has
a new show that's coming out, and he goes, yeah,
you need to help him, you need to blah blah blah.
So I said, sure, TV not Oh, I don't know
what this show is. I must I don't know. I
have no idea. Okay, So I'm getting these texts, but
they come in almost you want to say, ADHD fucking
off the charts with Joey. Right, it's like gone.
Speaker 4: And we even heard a story I think Kevin was here.
I don't know if you were about him getting his haircut,
right Kevin where he showed up with the MILFs who
cut his hair, and she said that he comes in
and he had a drink and then he gets mad.
Just all this stuff of that would sort of fit
this urgency, like everything has to happen right now, right now,
right now. And then when the woman says to him,
I can't fit you in today, he writes her back goes, well,
you lost down on fifty dollars there, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 1: But he's serious.
Speaker 6: Fifty bucks somebody else.
Speaker 1: But he's serious, is the thing. And it's like this
urgency of everything has to happen right now, it's a
little nutty.
Speaker 6: So that's a case of OCD.
Speaker 1: By I'm just getting about to do the start the
last episode of the podcast, and I get I'm getting texts,
a flood of text Hey, my cousin's gonna call you.
Gotta get him onne, you got to help him out
with this show you got about b b bah bah
bah bah. And I'm like, I can't right now, I can't.
So while I'm on the phone, you just lost fifty bucks.
Speaker 4: The uh I mean isn't that what she said something
to that effect that she He comes in, he brings
a big bag, he's got a drink, he sits back.
Speaker 1: It's an entire show. It's a whole thing.
Speaker 4: He takes over the entire salot. Yes, basically, it's like
it's green room, but he yeah, brings all the shit.
It's it's a little mad, which is gonna sound like
I'm being mean to Joy, but this is what we
were told, and I'm just sound like, so I get
this like insane thing. And now my phone's ringing and
it's his cousin calling me, and the guy must know
that he's been told call right now, call Bill right now,
call him.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, I feel like I have to answer.
But we're about to start another podcast. Somebody's walking in
here to be on the podcast. They come in and
they're talking immediately, and I'm not paying attention to them
because I'm on the phone there. So now they're they're
they're they're a little put.
Speaker 4: Off off and uh, but I but.
Speaker 1: I wound up talking to his pation. But I wound
up talking to uh, to his cousin Tony, and they're
doing a Bob Seeker tribute band.
Speaker 6: Wow, that's the one tribute band Rochester needs.
Speaker 4: Dude, I'm telling you, and I know you're gonna be.
You're gonna be.
Speaker 6: I could be ill in the cover band community.
Speaker 4: There's a cover band for just about everything. So that's
not the Rolling Stones. They're gonna be playing an innovative,
innovative theater in the theater Okay, the old xerox, the
old Xerox. Okay, I've been there, Yes you have. That's
a nice place to watch music.
Speaker 1: October twelve.
Speaker 6: That's a big deal.
Speaker 1: And he said that this is like a twelve piece band.
He goes, we've got three female backup singers horns. I go,
three of them are Joey. He's got to stop put
Joey in a move movie. So I'm like, but I'm
I go, oh, I'm sort of excited by this because
I like, I really I said, I'd become a Bob
Seger fan. And I said, you know, how can I
help you? And he goes, well, can we come in?
And I go, I would love to have the whole
band in here. We're you gonna put tie No, but
wouldn't that be fucking amazing? Like the sound would be
amazing to me.
Speaker 4: Yeah, until the salon kicks us out, not the one
next to us, one over there. Yeah, I don't know.
And they're playing they're playing in Lockport.
Speaker 1: I guess too. On the twenty sixth of September. There's
a theater up there.
Speaker 6: It's funyu is lock A lot of bands play in
Lockport from here like Lockport, like this.
Speaker 1: They have a theater.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they have a theater and a lot of people
come over across the border and watch shows too.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, Like I know a guy who's hit three
Deer coming back from from Lockport playing shows hit Lockport
in three years, hit another Deer on one O four.
I'll maybe you should stop taking one oh four.
Speaker 1: Terrible but yeah, but anyway, there, So I was glad
that Joey put us in touch. But that was but
god is can he be a pain in the asswer
with this? Yes? Just tell me.
Speaker 4: So.
Speaker 6: I gotta ask a question. So Detroit has had the
home Motown kid Rock, Bob Seeger, other artists, many artists, eminem.
Rochester is the home of Lou Graham. I'm gonna ask you,
does Rochester love Lou more than Detroit? Loves Bob Seeker problem.
Speaker 1: I don't know the answer to that because I don't
know what it's like at the at the ground level
in Detroit. I really don't. And but he was I'll
just throw it out here. He was on the field
for the Lions playoff game. Okay, he was on the field.
Speaker 6: Well, Lou Graham has sung the national anthimes.
Speaker 1: I don't know that. Now Bob has retired, which I
always say that, you, yeah, he's retired. I go, you
can never retire from rock and roll.
Speaker 6: I know, I just just did this huge retirement.
Speaker 1: I've always believed this. I don't believe you can retire
from a creative endeavor.
Speaker 4: You can slow down, but you can never stop because
it retired. And I've seen him played four or five times.
Speaker 1: Right, But I'm going, if you're Bob Seeger, and your
whole life is about being on stage, and sure there's
a little bit of the adoration, but you also love
the music, you love to write. You got this thing
in you, you got to get it out. I guarantee
he's written more songs since he's retired. And but I
don't Big Sailor as it really Yeah, Big Sailor had
a big, a couple of yachts. I think up on
Lake Michigan up there, Yeah, from what I understood.
Speaker 6: But anyway, someday, lady.
Speaker 1: There's just so many Bob Seeker songs that I love
that never like. Come to Papa was one I always enjoyed,
and there's ones that didn't get a lot at radio airplay.
Speaker 6: Rambling Man's my favorite is it. It's one of his
early tunes. There's a video of him playing it, singing
it and playing the keys with this other He's got
a he doesn't have a mic stan, so he's got
to hold the mic and then play the play the
organ with one hand, and he does it like at
nineteen years old, masterfully.
Speaker 1: Who got in trouble in the I'm pretty sure if
I remember correctly. Stissing Mountain Junior Senior High School, they
used to have dances, and when you were seventh grade
he could go because it was grade seventh through twelve.
I don't think a lot of the older kids came.
But and the DJ came in somebody and they played
like a Rock by.
Speaker 6: Bob Seeker, and she Mercall came on.
Speaker 1: No. A couple of us went out there and changed
the words of course, and we were screaming this at
the top of our lungs. But one kid got in trouble.
Speaker 4: I think he got taken out because like we saw
the people coming and every shut up and sort of
move slowly moved away.
Speaker 1: There's one guy still with his eyes closed.
Speaker 6: Crew, I can only imagine the rest of the looks.
Speaker 1: God, yes, it was.
Speaker 4: It was everything you can imagine a twelve to fourteen
year old boy would come up with.
Speaker 1: Right there, right in the moment. Speaking of fourteen year
old boys, that's what Danny becomes every time the Buffalo
Bills play. Now, I'm kidding when it takes you back
to your youth, does it not? Absolutely all right? You
went to the game, Yes, I went to the preseason
green season games. Everybody, everybody on in the world of
national media, yes, I'll call that the ESPNS. I think
even a little bit of NFL Network, and I think
I might have seen some stuff on FS one about
the Bears new quarterback. It is not about anything with
the Bills. It was all about, yeah, we know what the.
Speaker 6: Bills could do. It's a preseason game. But I mean, Caleb,
he looked Williams.
Speaker 1: It was like he looked all right. He looked, he
looked poised.
Speaker 4: There was the one play.
Speaker 6: Where he was like flushed out of the pocket. You
thought they had him, and then he just flips the
ball off and then he get They get like what
thirty forty yards on that play. I mean the Bills
kind of the first team defense really just held him
to a field goal. And I think the second team
defense did too. But at the end of the day,
he looked, he looks he looked pretty good for his
first game. Now, I gotta remember r G three also
came to Buffalo as a member of Washington. You and
I were both there. Yeah, I said, save the ticket stuff,
this is gonna be a whole favor. Whoops. And he
actually looked really sharp too. And then afterwards he trash
talked the Bills. He said, yeah, it was pretty easy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Williams did not do that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, No, Caleb Williams did not do that.
Speaker 10: Uh.
Speaker 6: Now, the Bills did pull their defensive starters after one series.
I mean, ed Oliver gets hurt on like the second
or third play of the game. I go just came
a police escort home. Just take him home, don't even
risk it. But uh, Caleb he looked all right. Yeah,
he looked all right.
Speaker 1: Where you can concerned about anything you saw with the Bill.
Speaker 6: I wasn't concerned so much. Well, listen, like, I think
this is universal for every team with a star quarterback.
If it comes down to Tree, if Allan gets hurt,
they're screwed. They're done. They're they're gonna be picking on
the top of the draft or in the first ten
picks next year. If Allan gets hurt early in the season.
Speaker 4: That's Minnesota right now. They lost in quarterback and they
just lost their wide receiver today too.
Speaker 6: Jefferson went down.
Speaker 4: The other one.
Speaker 1: I can't think of his name.
Speaker 6: Oh, it's not he's gone. He's going.
Speaker 1: Wait, so I think it might be their quarterback is in?
Is in J J J J. McCarthy. Yeah, no, I
know it is. But he wasn't gonna be the starter.
Speaker 4: It would have after about three weeks of Sam Donald
the other year.
Speaker 6: Sam Donald's going to be the guy.
Speaker 1: I think Sam is and I think I wonder if
this is well, maybe it's chance.
Speaker 4: Now he's got to perform.
Speaker 6: Like he's one of the harder schedules in the NFL.
I believe this year, but.
Speaker 1: Kevin it's a torn I'm sorry, it's a torn. Right.
Speaker 6: They don't even know how he did it, No, because
he didn't look like he hurt himself during the game
and he played well, He played all right. Yeah, So
I mean that's I mean, it's the first time I
think in sixty seven and where a drafted quarterback, first
round quarterback, is not gonna be able to play his
rookie season due to injury. There have been others who
have been held back, like like Philip Rivers, Aaron Rodgers,
Tom Brady, others who have been held back to the
rookie Oh, Patrick Mahomes for the most part, But this
is the first time a guy's been wiped out because
of it. So he can't even take reps.
Speaker 4: Jordan Addison.
Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, that's a loss. That's a loss for them.
But as far as the Bills go, I mean McDermott,
they look sloppy and it wasn't sloppy played because they're
not really game planning. The offensive line didn't get much
of a push on the run game. Okay, that's something
to keep an eye on. The Other thing, too, is like,
you know, Trubisky sucks, but we know that he's a backup.
He's a journeyman. Keon Coleman, like Joe Marino, was talking
about this on his podcast, saying, Hey, look like he
had a couple of throws they designed for him to
get in the end zone to get open, and I
thought that Trubisky missed through the ball, which he did,
But the other thing was that he didn't get separation
from the corner. And those were plays designed specifically for him.
So he needs to learn how to get better separated shot.
Speaker 4: Well, I hope not, but I mean, yeah, that well,
but Gabe was getting the separation.
Speaker 1: He'd go left.
Speaker 6: This gave Davis was awesome when he was a four.
Then they made him at two, and when you're a two,
there's a lot more responsibility.
Speaker 1: We have four.
Speaker 6: Nobody's paying attention.
Speaker 1: So I mean, where would you say Ken Coleman's gonna be.
I think he's in a death chart.
Speaker 6: I think it's gonna I think he I think he's
gonna have to start because if you look at the
depth chart, really, I mean, who else to step on
that spot? Who's his size that can play the exposition?
You know? I mean Curtis Samuel looks pretty good, but
he's not. He's not the size of the guy like
Kean Coleman. So I mean, I think they'll be fine.
I mean it's a preseason game. But McDermot wasn't happy
after the game, and the second half was incredibly sloppy,
even by backup standards.
Speaker 1: Talk to me about the penalties and all that stuff.
Speaker 4: McDermott and and the number of people that seemed to
consistently say he'll be gone after this season.
Speaker 6: Well, I think we we all know here that that's
not the case.
Speaker 1: I don't believe that that's true.
Speaker 6: We don't. I don't He's not going anywhere. I think
Terry Pegoula right now, with so much upheaval and everything
with Kim that went on and we know now we
now know about that and all the C suite executives
he's had to burn through during this stadium building process
between the Bills and the Sabers, he needs some stability.
And who's the one guy, the one guy he's hired
over the years that's actually brought that. It's Sean McDermott. Now,
I don't love McDermott as a head coach, we know.
But at the same time, though, how many teams would
take him. Probably half the league, more than half the
league would take him as their head coach.
Speaker 4: Do you think Kevin probably right? I mean I think so,
just just just on I mean, he's available, and he's
in that fraternity now where he rebuilt the team. He
will come out and you get fired. You're usually re
hired pretty quickly. I mean the Bills and the brown
three times. Then it's sorry.
Speaker 6: Guys like guys like McDermott. I will say this though,
I mean he's I don't know if McDermott's is good
a head coach. Wade Phillips was, and I mean that sincerely.
I'm not trying to be Wayne. When he got to
the playoffs, though, much like McDermott, all of a sudden
he'd crap the bed. I don't think Wade ever won
a playoff game, if I'm not mistaken. Remember that that
Cowboys team where Tony Romo and Yeah and t O
went on that trip to Mexico or the bye week
to come back, they lose to the Giants. That's my
quarterback with the Super Bowl the Giants in Tennessee. Yes, yes, yeah,
of course you know, but I think that you know,
I don't think mcdermot's going anywhere.
Speaker 1: Okay, I think he.
Speaker 4: Saw on his YouTube blog Tom Brady still training Minnesota,
keeps down the rails with Arnold for a couple weeks.
You couldn't see Tom in Minnesota.
Speaker 6: Here's what's gonna happen. He's gonna wait for a team.
He's gonna wait for a team close.
Speaker 4: How old is he?
Speaker 6: This close? And a quarterback goes down? You know what,
I'm gonna go out and live here. If haven't forbid,
something happens to our beloved number seventeen. I could see
TB twelve coming to Buffalo. He's the same offense I.
Speaker 4: Can see with the right offense or the right players,
and not like a Minnesota with Justin Jefferson in a
decent running game.
Speaker 1: Where is Brady? Is he posting that he's still working out?
Is that his YouTube blog is YouTube now?
Speaker 6: He still has to sell supplements and stuff do the thing? Yeah,
I think he's rebranded TV twelve and the something else.
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams is on the diet yeah now, oh yeah,
and he's sort of a mentor to him.
Speaker 6: By the way, it's the same, basically the same diet
I was on fact, that's hell. That's hell, Dan, it
is you have to really be dedicated.
Speaker 1: All right, Well we'll take him moment. Can we do
a little theme that tune? Sure?

Speaker 4: He keeps telling that you're trying, you're spinning.
Speaker 1: What do you mean I'm spinning? The hell am I
spending for spin? Nothing? Spin? I think what you're saying
that I'm spinning that trying to be nice to him
or something.
Speaker 4: You're trying to make it so he doesn't try so hard.
I don't know what the play is.
Speaker 1: You think there's a play. This is my poker thing
