Speaker 1: Off the Bench with Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 2: As Hester and Hester got at.

Speaker 2: On the air, there's prop control.
Speaker 1: Live from the Raising Kine Studio.
Speaker 2: It's off the Bench, all right, welcome back in.
Speaker 3: We're number three three OTV here live from the Raising
Knes studio. Jake Flynn, Elandra Tatay all here with you.
Got our guy Devin Snow joining us about fifteen minutes
from now. But here in this segment, let's talk a
little NFL combine. Now, yesterday the kickers, the d line,
and the linebackers reported to Indianapolis to get there get settled.
Today there'll be a registration, there's going to be a
pre exam, there's going to be an orientation, there'll.
Speaker 4: Be team interviews.
Speaker 3: That is today, but everything actually kind of gets started
really on Tuesday. So looking forward to doing that, being
able to be there and interview all the early arrivals
there for D line and linebackers and specialists.
Speaker 4: And then the.
Speaker 3: Next day, so on Wednesday, you've got the dbs and
the tight ends, and then I believe it's on Thursday
where you have the running backs, quarterbacks, and receivers, and
the offensive line finishes things out. So we're going to
have I'll be boots on the ground there. I'll be
reporting back kind of who.
Speaker 5: Looks good, who measured well, who's a little underweight, who's
a little overweight, who's a little small boy, who's five
nine and seven eighths, and who's actually six foot tall,
like all those type of things.
Speaker 4: But there's a lot of things that go into the combine.
Speaker 3: Obviously, the only field portion is going to be a
large portion of it, but it's also it's a team interviews,
it's you know, the medical exams, it's all the different
things they go on for the combine. It's really a
mental test as much as it is a physical test.
Speaker 6: What a pressure cooker all of these athletes are going
to be put in, and for a good reason. That's
that's on purpose. They want you to be uncomfortable, they
want you to be The thing that I was shocked
at when I went to the combine was how much
they try to sleep deprive you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they literally make you do.
Speaker 6: Interviews until twelve or one in the morning, then you
got to wake up and do a drug test the
next day. You wake up like four thirty five in
the morning. The next day, they sleep deprive you, and
they do all these things you've heard of, like different
techniques that companies will use when they're interviewing candidates for
a job, Like they put you under pressure. They put
a test, like the interviewer will be thirty minutes late
to the interview. See how they react, and they're watching
them the whole time. Well, that's kind of how the
combine is. They put you in a lot of pressure,
they see how you react, and there are very few
people who's mind you like, there's a very few people
that go to the combine and help themselves.
Speaker 4: It fair.
Speaker 6: You go to the combine and a good performance is
not hurting yourself because all the scouts, all the gms,
all the coaches there, they are looking for reasons not
to draft you. Yep, they are looking for reasons when
you walk in that door, they're trying to scratch you
off the list.
Speaker 4: And your job is to stay on that list as
long as possible.
Speaker 6: Now, you can you hear the stories you see the
people that do go there and help themselves, and it's
usually guys that either bench press a lot, they run
a four to two forty a lineman that runs like
a four to eight or four to nine or whatever.
It is like you see these people that do something
that's so abnormal physically that they help themselves. Oh maybe
that's a guy that is a receiver and they just
thought that he was a you know, a third down guy,
sheer handed guy, but you know, not very then have
that explosive speed. Well, if he can go run a
four to four, that kind of that kind of squashes that.
But that's what I think a lot of people's misconception
of the combine is is you're trying to not hurt
yourself more than you are trying to improve your stock,
because it just doesn't happen like that. That's not where
the stock really except for you know, there's gonna be
a handful of guys that do yeah, that move up
around or two just because gms can't unsee what they
saw when you run that fast forty, right. But after that,
I mean it's a lot of pressure everything that you
do with these kids. And we've I've said it here
a bunch of times. Everything from your last game, your
senior year or your junior or whenever you decide to
leave college foot from that last game, every single day
until the beginning of September is about not getting cut
or having an opportunity to continue to play the game
that you've played your entire life. Yeah, and so it's
a lot of pressure, and that's the point.
Speaker 4: Is a pitch under pressure.
Speaker 3: Now for us, like we're trying to figure out where
the New Orleans Saint's.
Speaker 4: Going to do. And a lot and I mean a lot.
Speaker 3: Of mock drafts right now have them taking Jordan Tyson,
receiver out of Arizona State.
Speaker 4: Now, this is a receiver.
Speaker 3: He is six to two hundred pounds, so a different
type receiver than you have in Chris Olive, which we've
talked about if you go get another guy, you'd like
to see him in a different mold.
Speaker 4: And this is a different receiver.
Speaker 3: This is somebody out of Allen, Texas, close to where
you grew up there, Matthew. He started his career at
Colorado his freshman year, had a good season twenty two catches,
four hundred and seventy yards over twenty one yards per catch,
four touchdowns, big play guy. Right now, You'll probably remember
him most for his twenty twenty four season at Arizona
State where they go make the college football playoff, and
he was Sam Levitt now l Shues quarterback, his biggest target.
Seventy five catches, eleven hundred yards, almost fifteen yards per catch,
and ten touchdowns. Now this year he played through a
lot of injuries, sixty one catches, seven hundred and eleven yards,
only twelve yards per catch, but still had eight touchdowns.
So this is somebody in his career he has been
a big play guy. He has found the end zone
a lot of different ways and a lot of different times.
He has been a twenty one plus yards per catch
guy in his career. So he has shown you that
he can do that. This year, again, there were some
changes to the offense. It did not go as they
all laid out. Once Sam Levitt goes down, the offense
kind of changed a little bit there, but still pretty
productive when you consider all the shuffling they had there
at quarterback. Jeff Simms had to come into the game
at a different quarterback than Sam Levitt. So Jordan Tyson
somebody that is going to either be the first or
second receiver off the board. We all think Saints going
to go receiver. And again six to two hundred pounds,
a different body type than you have with Chris Olave.
So for Jordan Tyson, I want to see what what
does he do on the clock. I think that's gonna
be one of the biggest question marks for him.
Speaker 6: Wow, we you said, we assume that they're going to
take We hope that they take a receiver. Okay, let's
not make any assumptions here. Of course, with the salary
cap being healthy again, like, there's a lot, there's a
there's a lot to be excited about. Hey, can we
can we talk a little real right now? Like the
people that get drafted in the first round, especially, they're humans.
They they watch football, they know which organizations are good
and not good. And I think that for there's a
there's a decent amount of positions. And I think in
the past, like if the Saints are drafted, you high,
I think there's probably some athletes out there that are like,
dang it, and I'm just and I'm just being honest,
I'm doing real And it's just like someone getting drafted
by the Browns are like ugh, getting drafted by the Raiders. Now,
I'm not trying to put the Saints in the same category.
As them, but it hadn't been pretty for a couple
of years. But at the wide receiver position, if you
hear your name called by the Saints in the first round,
you got to be excited.
Speaker 4: This year.
Speaker 6: You got a young quarterback in Tyler Shuck that looks
like he's going to be the real deal. You're going
to play opposite of Chris Alave, so you are going
to have one on one matchups. You're going to get
an opportunity to make an immediate, immediate, huge impact, have
an opportunity with a young quarterback that you can be
y'all can be together for the next however many years,
so when and that might not be for every position,
if the Saints. If you hear your name called for
the Saints, if you're at you know, defensive line, whatever
it is like, you always want to go to a
top contender always, But at the wide receiver position, if
your name is called the New Orleans Saints, you got
to be fired up, man, because you're gonna have a
lot of opportunity with a young head coach, a young
quarterback opposite of another number one receiver.
Speaker 4: Great opportunity.
Speaker 3: So against the two ranked teams that Jordan Tyson faced
this year because again he didn't play a full season
and went through some injuries. So this is against number
twenty four TCU. At the time, he had eight catches,
one hundred and twenty six yards sixteen yards per catch,
two touchdowns against Texas Tech. They win that game, the
only game Texas Tech lost there. In the regular season,
he had ten catches, one hundred and five yards and
a touchdown as well, So he showed up in big
moments and this is a big play receiver. You go
back to the twenty four season kind of the same
thing against the best teams.
Speaker 4: That's actually when he played his best.
Speaker 3: And so right now, a lot of mock drafts have
the Saints selecting Jordan Tyson out of Arizona State. Cardinell
Tate out of Ohio State is another person that's kind
of in this conversation. Now, the Commanders, I know, are
big fans of Cardinal Taate, but even let's say, okay,
let's say that they take Jordan Tyson goes before you
Carneal Tait six three one ninety five.
Speaker 4: So he's in the same mold that we're talking about.
Speaker 3: That's somebody that had fifty one catches eight seventy five
and nine touds this year. So either way, whichever receiver
you like, at least they fit the mold.
Speaker 4: I think of what you need, what you're looking for.
Speaker 3: Chris Alive is a different type of receiver than a
carneal Tait than a Jordan Tyson. So that's good. I
like having diversity in my receiver room, Yeah, for sure.
And you and you need you need diversity. We've talked
about the you know what really makes a number one
wide receiver? Hey, what what is a number one receiver?
And there's not one mold that fits that. Certainly a
Lave has the stats of it, but there's parts of
his game that the Saints are are missing. There's some
missing pieces in the passing game that we need that
fits the mold of like what Tyler Schuck wants to do.
He wants to push the ball, he wants to throw
make contested throws, which they had a lot of success
with a Lave. But Albve is gonna he's gonna to
be explosive, he's going to route you up. He's not
necessarily going to make that contested catch. And so that's
the one part of the offense that is missing. And
you know they tried to do it with Ale a
little bit, who had some had some moments, had some moments,
but played better. Was shucked than he did with Rattler certainly,
and got on the field actually too.
Speaker 6: You gotta play, yeah, gotta gotta be put in a
position to catch a pass, to catch a pass. Uh
so certainly, yeah, that's uh just don't go running back.
Speaker 4: Don't go running back.
Speaker 3: I love running backs, Okay, yeah, but ending Gack's not
going to put you in a position right now with
where you're at on your roster, yeah, to be successful.
He's not the running A brand new first round pick
running back is not going to get you to a playoff.
Speaker 4: No contender.
Speaker 3: Now, the team that's selecting after you, the Kansas City Chiefs,
they've got a lot of pieces in place. A running
back might actually do them well because they're in a
different spot and you could say, well, they're picking right
behind you. They didn't play great, but you got to
look at what they have coming back, where they're at
when they're healthy. Just the Chief's history over the last decade,
Like Jeremiah Love might be perfect for them at nine,
it's not perfect for.
Speaker 4: You at eight, like, you need a whole lot of help.
Speaker 3: And I think your biggest need, your biggest kind of
calls for concern is who is going to be the
robin to your batman at receiver. So if you can
get that guy, and you get to your young quarterback
who at the end of the year was playing well
with uber drivers, so if you get him some more talent,
that's only going to raise his level of play as well.
So I think every team's got a different situation. The
Chiefs are in a completely different situation than you are
in New Orleans.
Speaker 4: And is that your favorite guy, Jordan Tyson.
Speaker 3: I like Jordan Tyson the most. Yeah, because I like
Cornell Tait. But he's never been the number one receiver
on his college team. It's not to say that he
can't play like a one, but he's had Marvin Harrison junior,
he's had Jeremiah Smith. He himself has never been the one.
Jordan Tyson's been the go to guy on an offense.
He's been the one everywhere really he's been. So for me,
I like that. I like that mentality because and you
can say, well, Cornel T's not gonna be the one
in New Orleans. I understand that, but I think at times,
whoever you select is going to have to be like
you said, if they shave coverage towards a top ten pick,
yeah right, you want him to have you want him
to What about a thousand yard.
Speaker 6: Kid Notre Dame Maleca Fields. What's his what's his prospect?
What's his I thought he had a position, right, I
thought he was. I thought he was good in the
Senior Bowl. He was good in the Senior Bowl six
to four. He fits what you're talking about. Ranked in
the top ten, I think.
Speaker 3: He's probably a top forty pick, top forty five pick.
Speaker 4: I don't know that he's a top thirty two pick.
Speaker 3: I know there's some uh, some big fans of Casey
concepts you on from A and M as well at
the receiver position because of all the different things that
he can do.
Speaker 4: Had our guy Tyron Montgomery, now I get an invite.
Speaker 3: To the Combine, Yeah, dummies, dummies out there not looking
in the D three ranks. I never really understand some
of that. Like Kaylon Black from Indiana didn't get a
Combine invite. He took over the National Championship game. It
was really the spark that kind of led them to
the victory invite to the and went to the Senior
Bowl and like it did good. Yeah, very productive running
back and didn't get an invite to the Combine. So
sometimes you have those head scratchers that would maybe even
more so than Montgomery, Like I think Montgomery should have
gone because of what he did in Mobile, Like Kaylon
Black was one of the best players on a national
championship team.
Speaker 6: That's that's a weird situation. That's an agent fault right there.
That's true. That would be so agent, give me an invite.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this team Roman Henby, who we shared the backfield with,
is going. But yeah, okay, Lone Black weird.
Speaker 3: So if the scenes don't go receiver at number eight,
I would be surprised. You to your question before, like
we think what they should do, but they're actually going
to do. And I say that because I know edge
rusher is another position that they're looking at, but this
one is so deep. At edge rusher, you can get
one of those I think instant playmakers in the second
round at that position. You start looking at some of
the names that could be available in the second round
at edge, and I think you're like day one starter
type guys in the second round because it's that deep.
Speaker 4: I think it's the deepest position.
Speaker 3: I think edge rusher and tackle are the two deepest positions.
Speaker 4: In this draft.
Speaker 3: And so knowing that, knowing that receivers not as deep,
you need a receiver and you need an ed rusher.
Let's fine, we'll get our receiver in the first or
edge rusher in the second.
Speaker 6: I mean, there's there's a lot of there's a lot
of positions you could say the Saints could improve on,
certainly most of them by receivers. Receivers the one. Just
do it. Just go receiver. Let's not make like the
don't overthink this. Help your young quarter you've wanted a quarterback.
Everybody wants a quarterback. You got one. Yeah, you found him.
You got your guy for a long time hopefully. Yep,
let's help go hold out. If you don't do get
an offensive lineman. Don't do that. You've not been great
at that. Well okay, yeah, sign one of the theory.
I only say that, like, get a good offensive lineman.
Speaker 7: Maybe.
Speaker 6: If you can't do that, if you don't know how
to evaluate offensive lineman, don't do that.
Speaker 4: But that'd be cool if they could. It'd be awesome
if you could get a good one. Do that.
Speaker 3: But yeah, and then don't pay the offensive lineman. And
once you drafted him, give him a second contract when
he has n't been great. That's a whole different conversation.
What as well? Oh my god, all right, we'll take
a break. When we come back. Our guy, Devin snow

uh if I saw your story right last night.
Speaker 9: Yeah, dude, as of six am yesterday. What what a
what a time? Man? Can't wait?
Speaker 10: Can't wait to watch hockey again in another four years?
Speaker 4: What a tradition, man, I'll tell you what though.
Speaker 3: It is one of those sports that you can, you know,
find your way away from it.
Speaker 4: And it's been a while, but then like when there is.
Speaker 3: A game of that magnitude, whenever it's USA whenever, Like
I mean, cause the Four Nations Tournament was the same
way for me, Like watching USA Canada in a final
so quickly can you It's kind of like a little
bit like soccer for a lot of people. Yeah, like
you're not watching it, but World Cup time, it's like
you were locked in and it's like you're right back
in it.
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's that's that's exactly what I fee about it's
like that soccer feeling, you know what I'm saying. Okay,
USA plays today, like of course you're gonna watch him.
But the big difference is is we better at hockey?
Speaker 9: You know, we just all even though we hadn't won
a gold in forty six years, that's only because Canada.
Speaker 10: That like, that's that's and that's what makes yesterday like
so fie, Like I don't care if you're in the hockey,
if you're not whatever, or you into the United States
of America competing, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 9: And I just don't know many people who aren't. So
I thought it was five. I mean, you got guys,
and we know that hockey guys like lose teeth and stuff,
but to just see it on such a grand stage,
I mean, come on, man, this guy lost him front
two te and he goes and does a pressa after
the game and he said, I am so proud to
be an Americine. That's two front teeth a missing bro, Like,
what more do you want from a human?
Speaker 6: Those two front teeth are they had already been gone
because like you know, that nerve was showing if those
were like it's real friend to that nerve was out there.
Speaker 4: What what a tough as.
Speaker 10: I'm pretty sure that's to do they got hit in
the mouth.
Speaker 9: What a hockey stick is? I learned it yesterday. They
call it a high stick.
Speaker 4: Yeah, penalty that I know.
Speaker 3: I know you had to if you saw it, you
had to enjoy the person that put together the difference
between hockey players and basketball players with the Anthony Davis
in the finger situation right exactly.
Speaker 9: I mean, dude, it's it's like, I mean, you're talking
about any injury that they deal with in basketball, you
dudes in hockey, like they won't even like brand up,
it's not even mentioned, you know, like hey dude, like,
hey I swallowed my.
Speaker 6: Finger, Like all right, did you say the White House
trolling Canada a little bit yesterday to yeah.
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's so good, It's all I mean, that's what
it's all about, right, Like that's to me, man, That's
that's why I love sports. And I mean it, like,
I know this is like cliche to say and all
that stuff, but like I really swear about that stuff, dude.
Like that's why I'm.
Speaker 10: Still into sports, because it's just something about competing and
how it collectively brings everybody together, especially on that United
States versus whatever a country stage, like you just I
don't know, you just can't top that.
Speaker 4: Did you?
Speaker 6: Did you walk into Olympics outside of hockey? Because the
Olympics to me are so great because you can watch
one sport like every like you said, every four years,
you're watching these sports. You're not you're not picking it up.
You're not watching figure skating or curling or anything like that.
But you can become an expert in that sport on
how to judge it with like the first two minutes
you watch a Bob sled, Okay, that guy's too high
on the edge right there. Curling, you gotta sweep, you
gotta curl that thing. Like you become an ex really fast,
and it makes it Those sports are simple, but it's
also enjoyable for the viewer once every four years.
Speaker 9: Yeah. So actually those two right now, I'm legend about
there's two ups. So the only other sport that I watched,
and I watched it for like five minutes, was I
watched the Bob sled after the game yesterday. Wow, Like I've.
Speaker 11: Seen Bob sleddon before, but I guess I forget but
to see four grown humans just hop into this into
these bob sled compartments.
Speaker 9: So like but like they just fit right, you know
what I'm.
Speaker 10: Saying, Like there's no problem, there's no problems getting bro
I can't even get into the truck right.
Speaker 9: You know what I'm saying. And four dudes just get
into a bob sled and like, I don't know that
it's that. It's that thing like you know in high.
Speaker 10: School, Like all right, I did track in high.
Speaker 9: School, right, you got to have like certain what do
you call it? Like there's certain things like getting off
the line. If you don't get the line right, you're
done right. Same thing with bob sledding. If you won't
push the bob sled right way, well guess what, you
ain't gonna go as fast, you know. So. And then
the curl And I just learned about that last night
on my show. Somebody called in, Hey man, you saw
the curl And I'm like, what do they do? They
just because it's the one the webs, like what do
they do? They just curl into their arms, go dead
and Nicole, you know, I don't know what's going on here.
He's like, no, huge, It's like I was thinking like
Rocky and Rocky boy, you know, but no, he's like
a shuffle boy, and I'm like, oh dude, it's like
at every bond Metterie.
Speaker 4: Okay, speaking of Metari little Metri.
Speaker 7: Uh.
Speaker 3: Marty Gras season, I saw dev I saw you were
out there, and I don't know how many different cities
and different Mighty Grals you hit. I know obviously New
Orleans you hit that one. I'm sure straight on. What
was Mardi Gras season like for you?
Speaker 9: Yeah? No, I heard Will Helmets on here early time out.
He went to Tipper bro. I don't leave New Orleans.
I ain't never been to another Marti Gral. I can't.
I can't. I can't fathom what it would be like.
Speaker 10: But you know the thing about Marti Grass, every single
one I've said this my whole life, every single Marti Girl,
I always leave saying.
Speaker 9: Damn, that was the best Marti Gral.
Speaker 8: Ye.
Speaker 9: That just something about it, man. And this year was
no different. This year.
Speaker 10: I got went out there Friday night because I live
right by, you know, like around City Park, del Guy
and stuff like that, and Orleans is waying Demian run.
So I went out there Friday night and we sat
out there till the next morning just to hold down
the spot on.
Speaker 9: The neutral ground. And it was so worth it, dude, Like.
Speaker 10: The whole in Demian day was It was the best
in Demian I've ever been a part of.
Speaker 9: It was just amazing.
Speaker 4: So you waited all night just for your spot.
Speaker 9: Yeah. I had some dudes running shift though, too. You
know what I'm saying. Yeah, we're running that thing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, some people that knew some people I got you.
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, I was like.
Speaker 10: You know, y'all. I did the shift from six pm
to around three am, and then I had some dudes
come in for the late night shift from three am
to seven am, which was the hardest shut.
Speaker 4: I mean, uh, now, do you do you ever ride?
Have you ever done that before?
Speaker 10: When I was a kid, Like I rode in the
Irish Italian Paride in Saint Bernard. I've arden like a
couple other parides like.
Speaker 9: Can Shell Matt. But nah, I don't like riding periods
because I like being on the ground, like being around
the I love to socialize and I'm that dude like.
Speaker 10: If I ain't seen somebody in five ten years, I'll
talk to them for twenty minutes.
Speaker 9: When I say, it's just how I am. Yeah, you know,
so I liked I liked that stuff. And that's what
Marti guards.
Speaker 10: You see so many people from your whole life and stuff,
and you can't do that on the float.
Speaker 9: Man. And then you got to worry about.
Speaker 10: Hey, did I throw this person person that knows me something?
Speaker 9: Did I thought? Did I miss him?
Speaker 8: Right?
Speaker 10: You know, there's just so much fun. I mean, y'all
saw a Tyler shuck.
Speaker 9: Bro, I mean five thousand passes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, hospitalizing people throwing fastballs. Yeah. Hey, these
quarterbacks can't help themselves. Dad.
Speaker 3: They're like, I'm gonna show you how strong my arm
is every time they get on a Marti gar float.
Speaker 9: Well, and I respect that about Tyler shuck because you know,
the evaluation is still on so that it doesn't that
when you're riding on the floor, Bro, were watching how
that spirals coming out.
Speaker 6: He gotta be careful though, Like throwing a bag of
beads like that, it's like throwing a weighted ball.
Speaker 4: You can get a little tenon itis in the elbow hopefully.
Speaker 9: Yeah, oh yeah, I'm sure. Oh yeah, I mean he
he he.
Speaker 10: Totally embraced Marti Gard the only thing somebody didn't tell
him is it wasn't like a competition, you know what
I'm saying, Like you could tell dude he was playing
them things.
Speaker 4: It's a competition, Devin, Yes, it is? Uh, Dev, What
the hell are you gonna do later today? Brother? I
mean nor in our day?
Speaker 3: Like what what are you going to do today? What
do you what do you playing it? I mean for whatever?
You obviously had a plan, well not a plan really
because you never really knew, but you knew something was
going to happen.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 10: No, I'm I got two guys about to come over here,
and yeah, that's what we're doing the next few months.
Speaker 9: Is uh really? Like I said, man, the YouTube, I
gotta get better at YouTube.
Speaker 10: You know what I'm saying. It's little things, bro, some
little things everybody else is doing. So you know, just okay,
you go on a live stream, well.
Speaker 9: All the things that come with a live stream.
Speaker 10: You gotta promote it, you gotta you know, post something
during the live stream. This is all stuff I've.
Speaker 9: Never done all these years. So it's like I just
got to write down all these little things that I
wrote down the driveboard and just.
Speaker 10: To tackle them. But I'm confident man like.
Speaker 9: I mean, look a look at yesterday, man. I put
out a video so so genuinely casually about the USA
hockey team, and you know, the video does great. Dude.
I'm sitting man like about to eat eggs and bacon
and I don't know, Bro, it's a different world, dude,
it's different work. Dude.
Speaker 10: Ask me, it's ten years ago.
Speaker 9: I was nervous. Yeah, I don't know what I'm gonna
do now.
Speaker 10: The way the way that the world's laid out, it's like,
you know, I just got to keep doing what I'm doing.
Speaker 9: Retire in the series, you know.
Speaker 6: Yeah, only like when you talk about that YouTube, like
the YouTube's such a like a powerful tool, yeah, touch
a powerful vehicle for content.
Speaker 4: Like just ask my kids.
Speaker 6: I mean they are locked in to YouTube any chance
they get. They have their YouTubers that they like to watch.
And I know that there's a skill. I think I
saw multiple years ago that mister Beast was like I
can take any type of concept and make it in
one hundred million viewers and like too or whatever it is.
So there's a formulae, like how do you figure that out?
Is it just is it just like trial and error,
or you call in other content creators that have kind
of figured it out for advice, like how are you
going about learning it?
Speaker 10: It's like college, right, so I've done this for so
many years with other things. But you have to like
watch what people are doing. For instance, like I believe
mister be. I don't even watch mister Bees like that.
I know who he is, I know that what he's
created all that stuff, But I believe because once you
understand that algorithm and how to work it and how.
Speaker 9: To do the little small things.
Speaker 10: Yeah, man, like if you got any talent whatsoever, like
it should work out for you. And then the next
biggest thing is just showing up consistency.
Speaker 9: Okay, like you did it two weeks in a row. Okay,
well you gotta do it twenty. Then you gotta do
it two hundred. You know. So it's just and that's
the part that I really understand. But the other part
is like that I don't understand, is like just the
little intricate things. And the only way to learn it, man,
is constantly watching YouTube. And you know, you say YouTube
is powerful. I definitely know that because what do I
watch the most? I watch YouTube and I'm thirty three.
You know, imagine these dudes in their early twenties, mid twenties, like, dude,
all these people are fascinated with YouTube, and there's so
many opportunities coming up. Like I bring up the GTA
thing because that's gonna be an era where it's gonna
take over so many like what people are looking at
for so many months years whatever. I mean, GTA has
been now for thirteen years and they haven't come out
with another one. So once this new one drops, people
are gonna be fascinated with looking at it.
Speaker 10: I gotta be ready. And that's just one side thing.
Speaker 6: You know, my son watches like this one got played Minecraft.
He does he just plays Minecraft and he talks in
these weird voices and he's got millions of people that
watch these videos. I'm like, my god, what is this?
He's building like the most generic looking house out of blocks.
Speaker 9: Yeah, and I do want to like get into, you know,
more live streaming. So what I mean by that is
like I'm not like sitting and play live streaming, but
you know, like what you see everybody doing that, it's
like live twitsch streaming, but not being like a d
bag doing it like a lot of these dudes I
watch that are like live twist streaming, but it's so corny,
you know, So just finding like a groove with that,
you know, I'm gonna do skits and stuff like that,
a lot of more writing, writing skits and stuff.
Speaker 3: So that's awesome, man, And we look forward to all
the new content from our guy holding Mayo.

Speaker 1: The bench, from the locker room to the airwaves. Gets
off the bench with Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, some.
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in ot be here live from
the Raisin Kanes studio. LSU softball did bounce back after
having some struggles there in clear Water. They come back
in in the midweek they beat South Alabama. Then in
the Purple and Goal Challenge they take care of Michigan
State twice. They beat Howard and they also beat u
LLL in a ten inning game two to one. So
LSU finds their winning ways again. And they've got McNeice
coming up tomorrow night. I believe that's going to be
in Lake Charles. So that's what the softball team has
coming up on their schedule. So nice bounce back week
for them after struggling down there in clear Water. For
the baseball team, they are going to come back and
play against McNeice as well, but this one will be
in Baton Rouge tomorrow night, and hopefully we can actually
watch that one.
Speaker 6: Swee'd be cool to'll be able to watch. I'm trying
my best, guys. It's hard when I can't watch Taylor.
You gotta be like losing it over the chat. Right now,
we're talking. We're talking yard stuff. I know I noticed it.
I got back in from the mountain on Friday. I
get looking my yard and it like it was like
eighty degrees and all of a sudden, things are green.
Things are starting to get green around here. Things are
starting to grow. So a lot of weeds popping up.
I hadn't seen it in a couple of months. We're
talking talking weed and feed in the chat. So what
your you do? You do you only mow or do
you get aggressive with the whole line care situation.
Speaker 4: I'm owed, weed eat, I.
Speaker 12: Don't use a ton of fertilizer. Like my grass is
always really green, but weeds I'm still dead right now.
It's kind of patchy. So I'm pretty sure whoever had
the house before me like planted two different kinds of grass,
because one section of mind right by the driveway grows
way quicker.
Speaker 4: Than the rest. So what I've been doing is just
weedy in the green area.
Speaker 12: Let the dead area grow up. Then I'm gonna just
cut it all at once after it rains, because.
Speaker 4: Don't act like you don't know exactly what type of
grass it is.
Speaker 12: I have no idea. I don't I don't know types
of grass. But like if you cut now, even yard work,
if I cut now, it's so dry, like the grass
is dead. The next layer is just gonna be dead underneath,
and it's not gonna get you water either. So I
normally wait till it rains a few days after cut it,
then it'll be green underneath.
Speaker 4: So I haven't been I haven't been cutting.
Speaker 12: I'm just kind of weed eating right now.
Speaker 6: I'm pretty sure ninety eight percent of my yard is
just weeds, very little grass. Kids don't know any different though,
a lot of clovers. How about you, Jake weed.
Speaker 4: And I don't know. Do we have grass out there? Yes?
Is there weeds? Sure? Do I need to spray them? Yes? Gotcha?
Do you spray?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Make spray well? Round up, well, round up. You just
got a little squad car. Yeah, you got a big yard.
Uh yeah, a lot of space there for you, bud.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's why most of it is weeds, because real,
real expensive to put the grass in. Why did you
get on this conversation.
Speaker 4: I don't know. We were talking wait and feed.
Speaker 6: In the chat people were asking for tips, so I
was assuming Taylor had a lot to say about it,
but he didn't.
Speaker 12: Type of grass, it's just kind of maintaining cut it
when it gets high.
Speaker 6: Matt, I think you might be an overrated line keeper.
Probably overrated. Fucking I don't even think you're effective. I
mean saying that either, which proves the point a little bit.
Speaker 4: Again. I know my limitations.
Speaker 12: We were talking about it last week, like Landra was
talking about like what she wanted to give up for Lent,
and I was like, I don't participate in Lent. I
use the excuse that I'm not Catholic, and it's like
I'm glad I'm not because I couldn't make it.
Speaker 4: I'm I'm kind of weak minded when it comes to that.
I know my limitations. Yeah. I tried to do weeding
feed one time.
Speaker 6: It's a couple of years ago, because I think if
I if I you know, certainly I have a like
you said, it's a big yard, so a lot, but
if you.
Speaker 4: Get the spreader.
Speaker 6: So I bought the spreader, put the weeding feed in
the top of it, and I started walking around, spreading around,
not really know what I'm doing. I'm following the directions
on the back. I was never taught how to do this.
I'm just trying to teach myself as we go, and uh,
I'm about eight feet into spreading it out and it
hits like a little bump in the yard falls over
all of it just falls into one pile in the yard,
burns it up.
Speaker 4: Nothing grew in that one spot for about two years
so I'm like, I'm sitting it's like a big pile
on the grass. Pick it up.
Speaker 6: I just like embrace it and just water it and
the sleid it melt into the ground. I don't know
what to do here.
Speaker 4: And you thought Taylor was going to give you the
take I did. I got nothing on that, Bud sad.
All right, we are going to take our last break
of the show.
Speaker 3: We're going to get to some of your questions inside
the bay U four chat when we come back with
