Speaker 1: All start to you to presents. Off the bench with
Jacob Hester and T Bob Abert.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Off the bench with Jacob Hester and Bob aber I
got to come off the bitch. Now here's Jacob Hester
and T Bob a.
Speaker 3: Bear Welcome back to oh t b Our number three.
We got a great hour play for you, A big deal.
Speaker 4: No big deal.
Speaker 3: Then we got shot a downtail. I have my new
Chapel Roan shirt on. We'll get to what everybody else
is wearing here in a bit. Thank you to a
launder for this Chapel Roane concert.
Speaker 5: I wish I could see it. I can't, I can't tell.
It kind of looks like I am.
Speaker 3: It kind of looks like a little like like a
little like metal head.
Speaker 6: Yeah it's cool.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's got like kind of like a like a
rock and roll. But let's go ahead and kick off
this hour with a little big deal or no big deal,
big deal, no big deal, big deal, no big deal,
big deal, no big deal, no.
Speaker 7: Big deal, A big deal all right, big deal or
no big deal. Our own tailor Sharp is currently wearing
a Dion Sanders Cowboy Suresey, that is right. We have
finally brought Tate over to the side of honoring the
best players ever for the franchise that he cheers for.
Speaker 3: Big deal or no big deal Tate in a Dion shirt.
Speaker 6: No big deal.
Speaker 3: This is you know, go ahead here, Jake, you answer first, Tail,
shut the hell up.
Speaker 5: Go hey, Yeah, you can't answer first. So there's a
rotation here, okay, sir. And it is a big deal
because he is a certified Dion hater. Even though he
did so much for his franchise, he still hates on Dion.
Sanders doesn't give him the credit that he went to Boulder, Colorado,
turn the team around from one win to four, from
four to nine, and this man still doesn't give him
his credit. So I'm glad to see him finally start
to give him, maybe not a dozen roses, but at
least one or two.
Speaker 3: Ah, Taylor, you should recognize that what you're really doing
is actually wearing the jersey of the Dallas Cowboys next
head coach.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so congratulations, you already had it. You're you're ahead
of the it.
Speaker 8: My brother last year got me a like a jersey.
It's one of the throwback Cowboys jerseys. It is a
Dion Sanders.
Speaker 3: I mean you should wear that.
Speaker 6: I think it's in my closet with attack.
Speaker 3: You should wear the jersey underneath and then when a
big play is made, take off the jersey only to
reveal the jersey and spin the jersey around your head.
Speaker 6: You're like, you know what? I like that? I do,
Maybe I'll come.
Speaker 3: You got so for those who don't know, LANNDR got
me this beautiful chapel roone jerse.
Speaker 6: You got on jerseys.
Speaker 3: You got Jake a great hat that is make Fullbacks
great again?
Speaker 6: Thank you, Lanja. Very good presence, very thoughtful.
Speaker 9: H no problem, but he's tte Yeah. Finally coming around
to Dion Jersey prospected.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Uh, you know my hat was almost stolen by like
four different family members who also want to make Fullbacks
great again.
Speaker 4: So it was really a family gift. A line you
so I appreciate it.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 3: I love that Dak Prescott makes one hundred and fourteen
dollars a minute.
Speaker 6: That makes me really happy. God, why why are we
just possible?
Speaker 9: So I almost got him a Dak Prescott jersey, but.
Speaker 6: Even I couldn't.
Speaker 2: I couldn't even go that far.
Speaker 3: No, the deal one makes more sense because he should
love Dionne. Yes, like it's actually sad that he doesn't
and wrong, so he need to. We needed to beerate
him into being like a better Cowboys fan.
Speaker 8: I don't Dianna's Dallas Cowboys non existent to me.
Speaker 6: I didn't even see play for the team.
Speaker 3: I don't care. That doesn't matter. I didn't see. I
don't know Arch Manning played for the Saints, right. I
know he still beloved New Orleans Saint. I was very
very young during the Dome patrol. No, they're still awesome.
Speaker 9: Show some respect, yeah, got some respect on his name.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Jake, you got a big deal.
Speaker 4: No big deal.
Speaker 6: I do big deal, no big deal.
Speaker 5: Just kind of the way James Franklin handled the press
conference yesterday down in the Orange Bowl. I mean, not
just one thing, but you know, talked about Notre Dame
they needed to be in a conference, uniformity across college
foot really and and then I don't know, and maybe
I'm just looking too much into this. He asked like
Marcus Freeman, He's like, how old are you? He's like
thirty eight, and he's like, ah, I look at that hairline,
like and just like I don't know, like he was
making light of how young he was, and I don't know,
to me, it just felt like a little bit of
a jab and it just had an awkwardness to it.
I don't know if you've heard sound, but just the
kind of snap.
Speaker 6: So you've given me good content.
Speaker 2: Wait, I have to play.
Speaker 4: Just credit your source this one time, you know.
Speaker 6: Okay, we'll relaxed.
Speaker 4: I'm kidding, shut up, I'm sorry. Just say my favorite
co host number one gave me this earlier.
Speaker 6: Yes, so well, I will absolutely do that.
Speaker 4: Okay, thank you to Aaron's face.
Speaker 6: Let's see, I'm looking.
Speaker 10: Over here at Marcus and how old are you know?
Marcus thirty eight?
Speaker 3: I mean, look at a hairline on this guy.
Speaker 10: I mean, you know, envious of his hairline in a
lot of ways, but Marcus has done done a phenomenal.
Speaker 9: Job, and I don't know, it feels kind of like
a little like trying to feel like.
Speaker 4: A little tapping him on the head a little bit
to me, I don't know.
Speaker 8: Also, why give a Notre Dame fuel the day before
this game when they don't even need it? Saying we
need uniformity in college football, you're either going to be
in a conference or you're not like right there, I
just what is what is your goal?
Speaker 6: Is your end game?
Speaker 5: There?
Speaker 6: That's a good question. I don't know.
Speaker 3: That's a weird place to stump for. That feels like
off season conversation. And again, I guess he'll never have
a bigger stage than this.
Speaker 5: But also like no matter, like, no matter what it's like,
is this really a time like he could have just
been like, hey, you know what, I ain't worried about
that right now, like it's something and we need.
Speaker 4: To talk about it. Well, we ain't talking about it
right Yeah, talking about this.
Speaker 6: I will say if I was James S.
Speaker 3: Tranglin, though, I would be jealous of his hairline.
Speaker 6: That's what I'm saying. Like Tranglin's old and bald.
Speaker 8: His comments from the conference aren't even true though, Like
if it would have been, oh, we got left out,
I got punished for playing in our conference championship. Penn
State lost the conference championship. They're in the playoff. S
MMU lost the conference championship, they still got in the playoff.
Is what is your issue here?
Speaker 4: Texas lost the conference champions Texas.
Speaker 6: Lost the conference championship, Like, what's your what's your problem?
You know?
Speaker 3: What one thing James Shrengland does have that peanut butter
of skins. Yeah, chill out with luck somewhere out there.
Whitlock's watching the press or just salivating sweating over his keyboard. Yeah,
a laudra big deal over.
Speaker 2: You, big deal or no big deal?
Speaker 9: Jason Whitlock saying that I read has peanut butter skin
and big and a big rack. No, okay, so this
one's not sports related, but it's just kind of funny.
So I want to hear your take on it, and
everybody else is. Of course, Donald Trump wants to rename
the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.
Speaker 3: I don't I don't give me.
Speaker 2: A Trump impression on why we're changing it.
Speaker 6: Uh, Golf of Mexico. Why do we call it the
Golf of Meica? I mean, it really belongs to us.
We lead the way.
Speaker 3: Everything that's good is the tailing has just any drugs
across the border. Now it's now the Gulf of America.
Speaker 6: Okay, guys, Golf of America's here. No, I don't know, dude.
Speaker 2: And we want Greenland.
Speaker 6: I love I love this idea.
Speaker 4: I did hear that we want Greenland?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then maybe.
Speaker 3: I I do.
Speaker 6: Look, I love uh.
Speaker 3: I do enjoy his directness. The actual geopolitical ramifications are
above my head and way above my pay grade to
comment on. But I enjoy his directness, and I think
that's probably the single thing that has made him as
successful as he has been in this venture of getting
into politics, because it's kind of at odds with what
you normally see.
Speaker 9: Yeah, so he's definitely trolling, but I just think it's
so funny.
Speaker 3: It did sound more like the Polar Express hobo.
Speaker 8: Actually, that's this is this is a great idea. If
you can do something and you know to to troll anyone,
why not. He also posted, oh on his Instagram, Twitter
and all that, like a picture of the United States
and he included Canada there as well. It's just it's
it's it's great. He's excellent at social media and Twitter.
Guys like, that's it's he is.
Speaker 6: Oh, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 9: Somebody did put a picture of a stadium in Greenland
and they're like, where would Greenland University play?
Speaker 4: Big ten? Yeah?
Speaker 6: They feel like a big ten.
Speaker 5: Yeah, just like Notre Dame deals like way things are
going now in the Mountain West, right.
Speaker 3: Hey, Tay, what do you got?
Speaker 6: Big dealer, No big deal.
Speaker 8: Tyler Van Dyke has chosen his third college and it's
s MU. Even though they returned Kevin Jennings, Tyler Van
Dyke is going to come in there. Look sev seventy
eight hundred career passing yards, fifty five touchdowns, one year
of eligibility left again. Kevin Jennings is returning. He was
only a freshman last year, but did struggle in that
Bowl game.
Speaker 6: Big dealer, no big deal. Van Dyke to SMU.
Speaker 3: You know, maybe maybe he's being like, you know, I'm
not going to play in the NFL, and they're offering
me the most money. Yeah, because m you paying for
equality backup so that the season is not blown up.
I'm guessing Preston Stone, Yeah, Presidon's already in the transfer wort.
Speaker 6: That's right.
Speaker 3: So that would be my read on this situation. Van
Dyke saying, I think we just lost Jake unfortunately. But
Van Dyke saying, look, the SMU is give me the
most funny You know what do we owe SMU an apology?
Speaker 11: Why?
Speaker 3: Because they tweeted out that graphic of them battling North
of the Wall and we all made fun of them.
But look at Dallas now freezing cold, about to be
snowed in. Yes, but s m U knew what was
The skyscrapers are mountains. The skyscrapers are functionally mountains. SMU
knew what was coming. They tried to tell us all
and nobody listened.
Speaker 2: That's that's fair. Big deal, s m U their psychic.
Speaker 3: I wanted Jakes take on this, but I'm don't know
we're gonna be able to get back in time. Big dealer,
No big deal tom Brady being alleged, because remember Tom
Brady is in the booth right now, but he is
also a part Raiders owner, and there are allegations out
there that Tom Brady is very involved in all these
Raiders' decision right now, very involved in the firing of
Tony and new Pierce, and very involved in the recommending
of Bill Belichick. In fact, David Sampson, former president of
the Marlins, does work with Dan Levattard and metal Arc Media.
Speaker 6: He's a big he's a big executive in baseball.
Speaker 3: He has a great mind for the business aspect, and
he's very honest and open about a lot of the
sausage making that you never get to hear about. He
went as far to say that there is no way
that Tom Brady will still be in the booth next
season because of his role with the Raiders in the
front office, in his ownership role, that he's in a
big dealer.
Speaker 6: No big deal tom Brady basically owning the Raps.
Speaker 8: Big deal because I mean, if any look what has
been the Raiders shortcoming in the last couple of years.
I get it Brady's not gonna be on the field
as a coach, but uh, Brady probably knows a good
quarterback when he sees one, and the Raiders desperately need that. Also,
he's been successful and everything else he's done in his
entire career. Why not be a part owner of the
Raiders as well. I think this is a big deal.
This is a team that that needs a change. They
need a facelift, if you will, and uh, Tom Brady
maybe could be that guy. Do you think they go
with Belchick?
Speaker 3: Non?
Speaker 2: Bill came out and said that he was okay staying at.
Speaker 6: You and c Now, maybe next year they go with Bill,
But I don't.
Speaker 8: I don't think you hire another one year coach though,
after just doing that with Anternio Peers says.
Speaker 2: He has no plans.
Speaker 3: I wonder how Fox feels about this. Do they still
want him in the booth, they want him out of the booth.
He definitely generated a lot of conversation, but a lot
of conversation was.
Speaker 6: We like grec Olson, we don't like Tom.
Speaker 3: But as we said yesterday, a lot of that's not
as much because Tom's awful as simply because he's been
perfect at everything and he's less than perfect at this,
and so of course people want to pile ale on
tough to parse like, maybe him stepping out of the
booth as a win for everybody involved. He gets to
go back to what he's strong at. Maybe maybe he's
not feeling very for filled booth, I don't know. And
then Fox gets their easy card if oh we didn't
fire Tom, you know, confidence.
Speaker 6: He had to leave and now we bring great I well,
it means to be seen.
Speaker 3: But I was shocked to hear David Sampson be so
emphatic that he will one one hundred percent not be
back in the booth next season. Something to definitely keep
an eye on going in this offseason. Go South Fox
and paint Brady like one hundreds of million dollars, right, yes,
but he may not be allowed to stay in the booth.
If this conflict of interest is called out, We'll see.
Speaker 2: I do believe you, really.
Speaker 9: I was just gonna say, I don't really see how
it would be like too much of a conflict of interest.
Speaker 6: I agree, you're not refing the game, You're just calling
the game.
Speaker 9: Maybe a little bit of bias if anything, But who
doesn't have a little bit of bias when they're calling
a game for their team?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you know they say Jonathan Billma on
the Saints calls all the time and stuff to common occurrence.
Maybe it's because you have the power to enact personnel decisions,
But what does that have to do with doing color
for a game, to be fair, Also, if you're doing color,
you're meeting with coaches and whatnot before the games, right,
Like you're getting some inside info. If you think that, wait,
this guy's in the Raiders front office, I can't guess so,
and you're calling an AFC West game like that does
become a bit.
Speaker 8: Of maybe maybe just don't allow him to go into
those meetings, you know.
Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: There's been talking that maybe he even wasn't allowed at
times this year, But then that takes away from the problem.
It's it's it's weird he's trying to do too much.
I think he's trying to do a little too much.
Speaker 9: Yeah, but I think he's better suited for a role
in a front office than.
Speaker 6: Maybe.
Speaker 2: I mean, he got hands on No, I actually like
him on the call.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he would probably be more fulfilled in the front office. Yes, uh, okay, yeah, look,
goulf Southa's Brady's already not allowed in building swatch practice.
Speaker 6: Okay, it makes sense.
Speaker 3: And those are some of the best parts of listening
to a call though, or hearing that kind of you know,
we were at practice yesterday and blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 6: I love those stories.
Speaker 8: I have a final big dealer, no big deal before
we go to break So big dealer, no big deal.
We did not lose Jay Kester because of our internet
connection or his.
Speaker 6: Guys are free.
Speaker 8: Zoom meeting expired and I have to wait nine more
minutes before I can start a new one.
Speaker 6: Big dealer no big deal because I didn't know this
was a thing.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm gonna give Zoom credit here. I I
generally need more than nine minutes if I'm gonna crank
back up. So credit to Zoom. I mean, I don't
know if that's good exercise. Maybe it's youth drinking a
lot of pineapple juice. But I think you're complaining about
something that I think is kind of impressive.
Speaker 6: To be honest, No, that's awful.
Speaker 9: I don't know you had to pay for zoom.
Speaker 8: Also, like then we have an account. It's like, no,
you need to upgrade to like the free free.
Speaker 6: Hey, that man is ny Keegels exactly.

Speaker 11: Like the legend of the thing mix ends with the
begetting in what keeps the planet sitting in?
Speaker 6: Uh fows of oh my bed.
Speaker 2: Come far.
Speaker 3: Welcome back to OTB where we're h ot t og
o with our guys, Chef Michael John Swan for some monchies.
Every single week. Chef makes time for us to answer
your culinary cooris. Of course, he's the executive chef of
LSU Athletics. He's got beautiful baby Blues and he's roaring
into twenty twenty five. Chef, what's up? Brother?
Speaker 12: Oh you guys?
Speaker 3: Uh, we're doing well, man, we're doing well. How are
you doing, bro?
Speaker 12: I'm good man.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Chef, give me your or something we discussed yesterday?
Speaker 6: Hasheg monches? Johnathan even gives it.
Speaker 3: Give me your.
Speaker 4: Premiere king cake, premiere kin cake.
Speaker 12: I like a little liquor in the and the and
the filling, you know, uh like like I don't know.
I'm a chocolate guy too, so like a like a
rich chocolate mouse with a with a some kind of
liqure in it. The CON's gotta be on it because
I like pick cons or even if a chocolate cream
cheese I think would be okay.
Speaker 3: So you are a feeling because ry landed yesterday, is
you know, feeling filling?
Speaker 6: Filling can do a lot.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think if you can make it's easy
to screw up just a base king cake, right, But
if you can make one that's moist and and delicious,
I think that's the pinnacle. But if you can't, then sure,
go ahead and throw some cream cheese and whatnot, Like
I get I guess I'm saying that I kind of
view the billing as a crutch.
Speaker 12: You're still bitter about the omelet tarncy Teva.
Speaker 3: No, I'm just saying, dude, no, I forgot yes, No,
And it wasn't omelet chef Okay it was. It was
over easy eggs. And guess what, I made myself a
bacon and sausage croissant which with those over easy eggs.
Then I cooked with the water without flipping them, and
they were delicious.
Speaker 4: I hope you're glad you did.
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's it's just gross, is what that is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this weekend, I'm going though to I'm going to
attempt frying an egg where I baste the butter on
top and flip it and everything else.
Speaker 12: So we'll say, no, honestly, I have a respect for that,
and I'm being serious, you know, like what that basting,
you know, like it's how you poach as well. Like
if you're poaching salmon in a pan, that's that's how
you would poach it as well. You kind of take
that the grease or the butter or the fat, whatever
it is, and kind of flip it up on there
and it keeps the top warm while you're cooking the bottom.
And then when you turn over, you know, you do
the same thing, and it's it's definitely as that is
a professional execution of cooking.
Speaker 3: You know, we'll see, we'll see it's you know, I'm
going to set out to try to we'll see hashtag munchies.
Speaker 6: Do you use organic produce?
Speaker 12: You know when I was in Seattle, I absolutely did
because it was close and available for me at the
nutrition center. You know, Nutrient density is something that we
talk about a great deal here. And if I buy
a tomato, for instance, from let's say Washington, the process
is an organic tomato. The process is is ninety percent
of the time they're going to pick that tomato when
it's green because it's got a ship and so when
it comes off green, it hasn't fully absorbed the nutrient
that it needs to from the plant. Now there's there's
a couple of caveats here. If it's picked with the
vine still on it, it will still draw nutrent from
that vine what's available, and we'll continue to ripen and
continue to put nutrient and absorb nutrient from the vine. However,
if it's taken off the vine, it stops absorbing nutrient immediately,
and so you know, like if I'm buying a tomato
from southern Louisiana from Bell Chase, you know, they're they're
going to pick that tomato when I ask for it,
not ahead of time, and it And what happens then
is is that that that tomatoes staying on the vine
for a greater amount of time, the nutrient density is
getting absorbed into it, and so and it's only going
to take two days for me to use it, right,
So it gets picked, it comes to me and I
use it. If you buy it from organic stuff usually
comes from the coasts, and so it's having to be shipped,
and so it's going to spend you know, a week
or so in a refrigerated truck, and they go to
the produced company instit on a refriger refrigerated shelf. And
then when I call and ask for it, they're going
to subject it to ethylene gas to turn it red,
which is.
Speaker 6: Just they'll just man, they'll just make it red, that's right.
Speaker 12: Yeah. Effling gas is produced by vegetables, fruits and vegetables.
It is the natural release. You have ethylene gas producers,
you have ethylene gas the steps susceptible produce like a
banana for instance, a banana, the reason you put it
in a paper bag is because it not only is
it an ethylene gas producer, it is ethylene gas susceptible.
And so if you put a spoiled banana that's producing
large amounts of ethylene gas in with green bananas, that
gas is going to mature those bananas. The banana, the
green bananas think that it's spoiling because of the ethylene
gas is being released and it starts to turn. And so,
you know, the produce companies figured this out a long
time ago. That's why the tomatoes at the store are
super firm, you know, because it was picked green and
it's been sitting in the warehouse waiting for the consumer
to say I need it, And so you know, I
buy local first because those tomatoes are sauce. They taste
like Grandma's out of the garden. Off tomatoes have been
matured on a plant and have greater nutrients density that Okay, so.
Speaker 3: This is pretty fascinating. So if you can get local organic, sure.
Speaker 4: That's the ideal, but absolutely it's.
Speaker 3: Actually maybe better to buy just the local produce over
organic p I never knew that.
Speaker 12: Yeah, because of the nutrients density, absolutely. So you know,
this is a this is an ugly truth about you know,
the food business as a whole, especially in the United States,
is that we have to eat more food now to
consume the amount of calories that are necessary for our
body because we're eating fruits and vegetables that are being
picked before their prime, before they're before they're ripe, and
so you know, the caloric intake, you know, like isn't
what it used to be. A banana off the tree
doesn't have the same coloric calories or the same nutrients
available because it's been plucked before it's fully right, before
it's you know, fully developed with nutrients. So yeah, there's
there's the science to it for sure.
Speaker 3: See, and this is it, guys. You learn some new
every single week here when we talked to chef hashtag Munchies.
In your opinion, is Budhan kincake a fun idea or
a hacky regression of Cajun tradition?
Speaker 12: I think both, you know, like I think to some
degree it's a little bit of both. But you know,
like I do like I do like it.
Speaker 6: I like it to to be fair.
Speaker 12: You know, here's the thing is, I'm a fan of
savory savory dish, like, uh, you know, like I like
I like crab crab cheesecake, right, I like that savory cheesecake.
Is it healthy for you?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 12: But man it's good, you know. Like And and I
do kind of I do like taking those sweet dishes
and turning them savory and seeing, you know, like if
there's value in it. And you put Boudan on anything,
and I'm gonna eat his son.
Speaker 3: True, I mean very actually actual true, Like sometimes the
the simplest things in life are the truest. Hashtag munchies.
What's your favorite cooking infomercial? And did you ever buy one?
Did infomercial ever get you to buy something?
Speaker 12: So I'm going to date myself here. And I don't
know that it was an infomercial, but it felt like
infomercial to me. Back in the day was Yan Can Cook,
and it was more like a cooking show. I don't
know that I've ever bought anything else.
Speaker 6: What is Yan? I'm got to google this. Yan can Cook?
Speaker 12: Yan can Cook is like the original cooking, you know,
like back in the.
Speaker 3: Two cooking show Yan Can Cook. It's on YouTube here.
Speaker 12: Yes, So Yan can Cook was like my inspiration because
he would sit there and chop stuff without looking at it,
and you know, like flip it around and flop it.
And I remember looking at this guy thinking, oh my god,
I want to be able to do that someday. And
you know, like that guy was a monster. He was
just incredible with the knife. And I don't I don't
know that I wanted to buy the knife, but you
know I wanted to be his. He was inspirational to
me to develop nice skills and so you know, I
can cut with my eyes closed now.
Speaker 3: I mean so right here, this episode of Yan Can Cook,
the title is.
Speaker 6: Martin.
Speaker 3: I guess he's Chef Martin Martin. Butcher's had chicken in
twenty four seconds. Yeah, takes it down the knife in
twenty four seconds. I'm watching now. It's amazing. Yeah, filmed
in front of a live audience.
Speaker 6: Chef, would you ever do a cooking show in front
of a live audience?
Speaker 12: I don't know, man, I maybe you know, like now, yeah,
because I'm mature and have the confidence to do it,
I think, you know, like back in my twenties, I
probably wouldn't have because at the time I wasn't seeking
that kind of attention. I guess you know, and not
who I am now. But I'm more, you know, like
settled in who I am as a chef, and at
that time, you know, like I wanted to be this
chef in particular, you know, and so being an audience
Jeff wasn't really interesting to me. Now it just sounds fun, Like,
you know, I would probably go do it once and
enjoy it just for the experience of what it was, because.
Speaker 3: You'd be great at it. I mean, you would be
great at it, y'all. Put it on like an a
evenor so. I mean, God, this guy's awesome. Shout out
Cheff Martin hashtag munchies. When making a room for gumbo,
do you cook your chicken or excuse me, do you
cook your sausage or chicken first to render out the
grease and then use that grease to make your room?
Speaker 12: Yes? Absolutely, But I don't use the grease just to
make the room. I'll use the grease and add it
to the room.
Speaker 3: So how does that how does that not become overly?
That doesn't mess with anybody's stomach ings. I'm terrified of
the grease because I'm back of the day. I didn't
know about that, and I just put it all in there,
and I ruined people's stomachs. One of the first gumbos
I ever made.
Speaker 12: And what I do is a lot of times instead
of putting it into the room, also is I'll cook
the sausage down, render it so it's nice and the
sausage is nice and brown and crispy. Because if you don't,
it's gonna leak out in your gumbo. It's gonna get greasy. Yes, yes,
so you know, you got to render that fat out.
And then what I'll do is like I'll cook my
chicken in there and brown the chicken in it, and
the chicken will absorb some of that grease in. And
then you know, like I'll slip my vegetables in it,
and the vegetables will absorb some of that grease in.
And then you go about making your gumbo with the
row and everything else and inn and that you know, like,
it doesn't it doesn't release as much once it's in
that once it's in the muscular structure of the chicken,
but it's in the cell structure of the of the onions,
it's not as likely to release as it is, you know,
in its solid fat version coming out of the sausage.
Speaker 3: I never see again another technique to add to the mix.
I never knew this. I just always assumed it was
like if it was in there, it was in there.
But it can be masked and other things and not
hit you in the same way.
Speaker 12: Yeah, well there's an exchange. It's kind of the same thing.
But behind deep prying a piece of chicken, the moisture,
the water weve it's in a chick chicken leg, for instance,
when you deep fry it it, the oils is getting
into the muscular structure, replacing the liquids the water that's
in there, which is why you have steam. You know
that the steam is coming out when you drop something
down on the fire. That steam that's coming out, that's
coming from inside the muscular tissue of the of the chicken.
Speaker 6: Damn, I mean, crazy man.
Speaker 3: The science again, it's science, it's art, it's everything. And
he is our Galileo rim Branch.
Speaker 6: A man of many talent.

gotta we gonna we we gotta try this out and
uh and see if we can.

Speaker 6: That's awesome. A year universe. I wish you would have known,
we would have done something I don't know special.
Speaker 3: Well, hell yeah, when Jay, when Jake gets back, we'll
have to do something to celebrate a year together.
Speaker 4: That I want to.
Speaker 3: Okay, but right now I should actually probably re mind
you all that if you get an ACCI you need
somebody stand up for you. Go to Gordon Curdie Andrey Attorney,
Get Gordon, get it done. Get Gordon dot com as

eight eighty eight eighty at fall mom Sowars Media at
get Gordon Tayite NFL Story of the Day Day.
Speaker 1: It's time for Taytay's NFL Story of the Day Day,
your daily dose of NFL news from Taylor Sharp.
Speaker 8: Got a little two for for you in good News.
They are both sad. No, I'm totally kidding. The first
one a little bit more of a PSA. Obviously, we
do pissa, yes, exactly, we do know about the wildfires
at LA. We're actually just talking about it during break.
It looks like if the fires continue, the game between
the Minnesota Vikings and Los Angeles Ramy we will be
moved to State Farm Stadium in Glendale, where the Arizona
Cardinals play. They actually did this in two thousand and three,
so there were wildfires in California and the Chargers were
set to host the Miami Dolphins. They played that game
actually in Sun Devil Stadium, where Arizona State plays. So
they have moved an LA game to the state of
Arizona before.
Speaker 6: But yet it looks like.
Speaker 8: The Arizona Cardinals could finally host a playoff game. Unfortunately,
they are not the ones playing in that game, but Glendale,
Arizona might be the side of this game.
Speaker 3: So man, I don't know, it's it's it's it's it's
I don't have a football take on it. I got,
I got all my family California. Everybody's save, everybody's evacuated.
But it's just wild, man, Like everybody's houses are burning down, friends, family,
and it just feels like something in the modern age.
You feel like you're exempt from right, like you eat
out like the Great Fire of San Francisco back in
like the early nineteen hundreds, and well, you know, surely
nothing that could ever happen again, and now we're going
through something even worse. So I know people in this
area know stranger to natural disaster and the rebuilding that
it brings and the loss therein some just praying for
all the California brotherren out there.
Speaker 6: Man, it's absolutely awful. All right, I want to something
actually fun. Yeah, that was sad, Taylor ready to go.
That's very sad. What's not sad? It's just a PSA
Like I was just letting everybody know.
Speaker 3: I mean, it is very relevant. You're right, it is
very relative and in full story of the day, Dave to be.
Speaker 8: The game could get postponed, it could get moved, or
the Kansas City Chiefs scared of the Cincinnati Bengals.
Speaker 6: Because on the New Heights podcast.
Speaker 8: They let listeners call in, send in messages and everything,
and overwhelmingly a lot of people said that the Kansas
City Chiefs intentionally set their starters in the Week eighteen game.
Speaker 6: For what it's worth, I fully do not.
Speaker 8: Believe this because they wanted the Broncos to get into
the playoffs instead of the Bengals. Jason Kelsey actually brought
it up to Travis, who had a rather colorful response.
I'll obviously skip over the swear words, but he said,
I ain't scared of nobody.
Speaker 6: I wanted them in the playoffs.
Speaker 8: I want to slay every dragon one by one, Mortal
Kombat style. T bombs into that, he said, I don't
even want this to be like we play the lowest seed.
Just give us the best teams, AFC, NFC, give me
all of them. Will play them in a Walmart parking
lot in the offseason where we can.
Speaker 6: Really duke it out. If that'll make people happy.
Speaker 8: Because a lot of people believe they intentionally threw that
game to keep Joe Burrow out of the playoffs.
Speaker 6: I do not believe that one bit.
Speaker 3: I mean, they already had one seed, right, yes, so no,
they're resting their start.
Speaker 8: I mean, Josh Allen didn't play at the Bills because
they had the two seed locked up.
Speaker 6: Sa Quon Barkley set out That's.
Speaker 3: What I'm saying. This is the uneraal NFL strategy, but
there always can be a situation in which you get
dual benefits. And I agree. I believe Travis Kelcey when
he says that because the Chiefs have proven that, I
don't think they're afraid of anybody. But at the same time,
the Broncos, even with that incredible defense, for a playoff scenario,
you're talking about a rookie quarterback who's been all right
versus a guy who's playing an MVP level. Like No,
it's not even close. So of course you would rather
play the Broncos than the Cincinnati Bengals.
Speaker 6: Here's something crazy for you.
Speaker 8: Everybody's obviously saying that because Burrow, I guess, out of
the quarterbacks in the NFL, has had the most success
against Patrick Mahomes. Yes, there was only two quarterbacks ever
to beat Patrick Mahomes in the playoffs. Tom Brady beat
him in the Super Bowl and Joe Burry beat him
in the AFC Championship.
Speaker 6: That's it.
Speaker 8: Nobody else's beating Travis Patrick Mahomes in the playoffs, so
I mean not right there, but you could say, okay,
well Burrow beats him every time they get in the playoffs.
Joe Burrow's last playoff game was the AFC Championship at
two twenty three.
Speaker 6: He lost to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaker 8: Again, I don't think, yeah, soon everybody was calling it,
uh borrowhead arrowhead. Yeah, and the Chiefs won that game,
and that was their first super Bowl or Mahomes a second,
but they took the year in between because because Brady
had beat him the year before and then Burrow went
against the Rams. But that's what potentially started the three
pat was a super Bowl run. Again, Burrow's great, but
I mean the Chiefs are fifteen and two, were talked.
Speaker 3: About it doing it, but they're happy to have it
have broken that way. You're not upset they to play
the Broncos over the Chiefs.
Speaker 6: Would they rather have the Broncos in the playoffs?
Speaker 8: Sure, At the same time, you're fifteen and two, you're
probably not scared of the nine and eight Cincinnati Bengals.
Like this is this is something that it's a fun
conversation to have, but in no way or than Kansas
City Chief scared of the Cincinnati.
Speaker 6: Ban closing out of the show.
