Speaker 1: Quick Win evan Quin.
Speaker 2: I'll show you're going rub ahead, except with sim Wee
Speaker 2: pursuing it. Donld out Shaw shank through the sewer.
Speaker 3: Kid.
Speaker 2: Now we're chilling at the Eagle. Yeah, we're doing it.
Speaker 2: Three a clock on the doc. Got a habit on
Speaker 2: my house, a goat status. Howard's starting to get cratic.
Speaker 2: Shows that up multiply like a rabbit tuned in. So out,
Speaker 2: prink it up, beat the habit.
Speaker 4: I'm on hang out with.
Speaker 3: Rocking on the radiot Christine, all of the lady.
Speaker 1: Ah, Yes, hello to welcome everybody, Happy Monday. It's the
Speaker 1: world famous Ben and Skin Show. Glad to have you
Speaker 1: in the mix. Thanks for making us a part of
Speaker 1: your routine. Goodness. We've got some serious MAVs content to
Speaker 1: discuss and we'll do that throughout the presentation. Bombshell article
Speaker 1: dropped by Tim McMahon. Tim Cato has an article, Mark
Speaker 1: Stein has an article, and then Nico has a press conference.
Speaker 1: Lots lots is that your is that your computer going?
Speaker 1: What are you doing?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 1: What's happening with this noise floor right now? Are you
Speaker 1: getting my computer down? Ready to go? We're good now
Speaker 1: getting ready to kick over an amp. Do you need
Speaker 1: me to ground your computer? We're fine, okay, Okay, So look,
Speaker 1: mav season ended, or actually the eve before the mav
Speaker 1: season ended, A bizarre press conference happens where Nico and
Speaker 1: Rick Welts have a closed door, secret not secret meeting
Speaker 1: that you can't film. Then the season ends, right Friday night,
Speaker 1: did you guys watch the game? I actually went to
Speaker 1: a concert and had an awesome time. Didn't think about the game.
Speaker 1: What did you go to soul Coughing on Friday night? Ben? No?
Speaker 1: I did not. I can't.
Speaker 4: I don't know a single person on earth that knows
Speaker 4: of that band, and that place was packed.
Speaker 1: They sing that song I'm loving it. Yeah, yeah, they
Speaker 1: do the McDonalds donald so I don't know the lyrics.
Speaker 1: So yeah, when all that happens, like the Despair, it
Speaker 1: just hit rock bottom, It's like, Okay, well it's over.
Speaker 1: But it's really a good thing that it's over. It
Speaker 1: was obviously a painful season, just the biggest self induced
Speaker 1: free fall I've ever seen from a sports organization that
Speaker 1: I rooted for. And I'm prone to harp hyperbole. Maybe
Speaker 1: there's some something else, but I mean, they were in
Speaker 1: the finals, they had a twenty five year old global
Speaker 1: icon leading the way. Then they're in the play in
Speaker 1: tournament and everybody's hurt and it's it's over, and it's
Speaker 1: just like it's just been so bad. But it was like, okay,
Speaker 1: and now we wait for Monday morning. It was just
Speaker 1: the idea that this McMahon article is going to drop.
Speaker 1: Certainly seem that McMahon was out talking about a divide
Speaker 1: between Novitzky and the Mavericks as well, and so we're
Speaker 1: all going, wait a second, you traded Luca and you
Speaker 1: lost Dirk, Like, how have you lost Luca and Dirk?
Speaker 1: Those are our MAVs whoobies? How has that happened? And
Speaker 1: so the article drops today from McMahon again. Cato wrote
Speaker 1: a piece, Mark Stein wrote a piece, and then Nico
Speaker 1: holds a press conference today. So how are you feeling
Speaker 1: in the aftermath of this rush of MAVs news? Skin,
Speaker 1: I probably feel about like I mean, this sounds weird
Speaker 1: to say. I probably feel about like the players. Dude,
Speaker 1: did you guys see any of the players comments from
Speaker 1: Friday night and Saturday day? They seemed exhausted. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean they all pretty much acknowledged we've been carrying a
Speaker 1: heavy burden. And it's like I thought they all said
Speaker 1: the right things. Gafford was probably the most descriptive of Man,
Speaker 1: it's just hard when he I think even said, no
Speaker 1: one came at us directly, but we could feel it
Speaker 1: like they knew. I mean they It's funny, man, It's
Speaker 1: like it's just energy. Humans feel energy, and when all
Speaker 1: the energy is negative, a human's gonna feel it, whether
Speaker 1: you say something directly to him or not. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: so it's just the back half basically since February. Yeah,
Speaker 1: February second, that was that day that the trade went
Speaker 1: down and they played Cleveland. Uh, there has been nothing
Speaker 1: but negative energy surrounding this team, and even when something
Speaker 1: good would happen, it would be immediately followed by an
Speaker 1: avalanche of negative energy. Right like the Houston game. They
Speaker 1: we couldn't even make it through an entire game. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and so you know, I think all those players are
Speaker 1: they're happy that it's over. None of them want their
Speaker 1: season to end by getting your ass kicked on national TV.
Speaker 1: But also, man, they are ready to decompress and move
Speaker 1: away and try to come back next year healthy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the key. And God, you look at it. I
Speaker 1: just if it appears that Nico is going to stick around.
Speaker 1: I mean, there he is doing the early press conference,
Speaker 1: doing this press conference. It appears that they're going to
Speaker 1: stay the course and see that through and and see
Speaker 1: if this team that he put together is what he
Speaker 1: hopes it will be. So I don't anticipate a change there.
Speaker 1: Let me say something about that. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you guys got to hear his pressure today, and it's like,
Speaker 1: I don't think that he would go out there and
Speaker 1: go I don't know, guys, it seems like I'm on
Speaker 1: thin ice right now, like he's not going to say that.
Speaker 1: But one of the things he pointed out is that
Speaker 1: the reason they did what they did last Tuesday and
Speaker 1: what was a private media session, it was not open
Speaker 1: to the public. Originally they said you couldn't even record it,
Speaker 1: and then at the last minute they let reporters record it,
Speaker 1: but originally weren't going to be able to do that
Speaker 1: is he said that Patrick wanted him and Rick, who
Speaker 1: are the forward moving faces of the franchise, to get
Speaker 1: out there and talk to media. That's I'm paraphrasing, That's
Speaker 1: basically what he said. And so to Ben's point there again,
Speaker 1: if Patrick Dumont is sitting there going, I can't wait
Speaker 1: to get rid of Nico, He's probably not going to
Speaker 1: have Nico go out there and say, Hey, we're going
Speaker 1: to get rid of me. But the way that Nico
Speaker 1: communicated that, from my perspective, it made it seem like
Speaker 1: to me that all of their internal dialogue is about
Speaker 1: how they are going to move forward with this current
Speaker 1: incarnation of the front office, the coaching staff, the players, etc.
Speaker 1: That's what it seemed like to me. Well, the McMahon
Speaker 1: piece was incredible, and he is the straw that stirs
Speaker 1: the drink. And it's so weird to see the perception
Speaker 1: that fans have thinking that God, I mean, this guy
Speaker 1: that asks all the toughest questions and has the hardest
Speaker 1: hitting facts from all this is also mis identified as
Speaker 1: being a plant like helping with Nico. It's so bizarre
Speaker 1: to see the way all that works. But the McMahon
Speaker 1: article really hammered home this idea that you know, Dirk's
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame ceremony, Casey Smith very involved in that.
Speaker 1: He's there, He's you know, highly respected. I guess what
Speaker 1: was his title head of Yeah, he was I don't
Speaker 1: remember the exact title, but I mean he was basically
Speaker 1: the highest ranking medical staffer on the team. After that,
Speaker 1: Nico reaches out to him after the Hall of Fame festivities,
Speaker 1: reaches out to him to say we need to meet.
Speaker 1: He says, I can. I'm with my dying mother. And
Speaker 1: you know, McMahon paints this picture of Okay, Nico fired
Speaker 1: him over a zoom call after all that that's the
Speaker 1: you know, I'm just you know, paraphrasing or whatever. And
Speaker 1: in that move, you removed a guy who Luca loved,
Speaker 1: who Dirk loved, who the whole organization loved. And it's
Speaker 1: the way the picture that McMahon is painting is that
Speaker 1: Nico viewed him as a threat and got rid of
Speaker 1: him in a corporate environment because he didn't want anybody there.
Speaker 1: He wanted everything to be very structured. He doesn't how
Speaker 1: do I deal with a guy who's a medical guy
Speaker 1: that has this much power. Whatever. But by that move,
Speaker 1: firing Casey Smith could have cost you Dirk and Luca. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, it's certainly the picture that Tim is painting broadly.
Speaker 1: And the thing that was I guess I don't want
Speaker 1: to say frustrating, But I was intrigued by is that
Speaker 1: Tim is in Oklahoma City covering a playoff series. So
Speaker 1: Tim wasn't there today. Yeah, And so Tim Cato wrote
Speaker 1: a similar article, different details, but kind of focusing in
Speaker 1: on some of the similar things. And Kato's article is
Speaker 1: more along the lines of what Patrick Dumont might be thinking.
Speaker 1: In fact, why don't we talk about that? On the
Speaker 1: other side, it based on all these articles, what does
Speaker 1: Patrick Dumont think about all this? Why don't we talk
Speaker 1: about that next? Right here in four short minutes on
Speaker 1: ninety some point one The Eagle. All right, it's Sabin
Speaker 1: and Skin Show, ninety seven point one The Eagle. Thanks
Speaker 1: for hanging out with us today. Now we're talking about
Speaker 1: this big Maverick story that just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
Speaker 1: Nico Harrison had his exit interview press conference in front
Speaker 1: of the assembled media. That happened, oh about two hours ago,
Speaker 1: and it was on the heels of an explosive article
Speaker 1: that dropped today from ESPN by one Tim McMahon, who,
Speaker 1: because he's covering the NBA playoffs, wasn't there today to
Speaker 1: ask any questions about you know, Nico's response to his article.
Speaker 1: Tim Cato of d LLS and Mark Stein of DLLs
Speaker 1: both had articles that came out over the weekend talking
Speaker 1: about various aspects of this. Tim's was probably the most
Speaker 1: in depth, and it clearly had been exhaustively researched over
Speaker 1: several I mean months really when you look at it
Speaker 1: and look at the timeline involved. One of the things
Speaker 1: that Tim Cato kind of hinted at was people don't
Speaker 1: really know what Patrick Dumont thinks yet. But you guys
Speaker 1: heard the press conference today, right, Yes? Would you guys
Speaker 1: agree that it was presented like there would be nothing
Speaker 1: changing moving forward? Did you take that sense nothing changing?
Speaker 1: In fact, the team's going to be very similar, going
Speaker 1: to add a rookie in the draft. Yeah, and they
Speaker 1: think they're going to be really good next year, and
Speaker 1: if they're healthy they should be. Yeah. But you're not
Speaker 1: going to get Kyrie back to I mean, I would
Speaker 1: say January is optimistic. Also, Man, I hate to say this.
Speaker 3: I hate to say this, but you know, Anthony Davis
Speaker 3: had played so much this year and played so well early,
Speaker 3: and he was he'd been hurt so much leading in
Speaker 3: I get it, you know, And I would hear the nicknames.
Speaker 1: Everybody has the nickname, day to day, street closed, all
Speaker 1: those things. He's always out and ever since he's got here,
Speaker 1: he's been nothing but hurt, right, And it's like I
Speaker 1: have a hard time watching him, Like I don't know.
Speaker 1: He rarely makes it through a game without being hurt.
Speaker 1: And it's because I think he fought back early to
Speaker 1: play hurt, you know what I mean. He wanted to
Speaker 1: be their first team, so he's never fully healed. And
Speaker 1: that's a big part of not only Tim Cato's article,
Speaker 1: but Tim McMahons, okay because and I respect the hell
Speaker 1: out of that he was trying to help. But my
Speaker 1: confidence that he's going to stay healthy moving forward is
Speaker 1: extremely low. And you got a thirty two and thirty
Speaker 1: three year old guy. If they're healthy, yeah they're going
Speaker 1: to be good. But I don't have confidence in that
Speaker 1: right now. This is what I said when we traded
Speaker 1: for Kyrie Irving, and I have loved Kyrie Irving, but
Speaker 1: it's really easy to pull up Basketball Reference and look
Speaker 1: at how many games a guy plays that year in and
Speaker 1: year out, Like it ain't hard and to me and
Speaker 1: I follow the league pretty closely, when a guy misses
Speaker 1: a bunch of games for a myriad of reasons. To me,
Speaker 1: that's a red flag, whether you like the guy personally
Speaker 1: or not. And so that's why I was scared of
Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving. But when he got here, it was extraordinary,
Speaker 1: and I got to where I never spent any time
Speaker 1: worrying about Kyrie Irving's availability, and then the horrible thing happened.
Speaker 1: And so if I take that same outlook and I
Speaker 1: pull up Anthony Davis's basketball reference page, there's a lot
Speaker 1: of games missed. So I don't have to personally like
Speaker 1: Anthony Davis or think he's like one of the greatest
Speaker 1: two way players in all the world and always has been.
Speaker 1: To go, oh, but by the way, he misses a
Speaker 1: lot of games. That's just that's not even opinion, that's
Speaker 1: just irrefutable fact. Let's pull it up and look at it.
Speaker 1: So I think, you know, to sit here and look
Speaker 1: at this and go, man, if they're completely healthy, they're
Speaker 1: a great team. They're a team that competes for a championship.
Speaker 1: I agree with that. I think it's reasonable. I also
Speaker 1: think it's very reasonable to be skeptical that that's going
Speaker 1: to fall into place, just because of all these other
Speaker 1: uh you know, things that we can look at and
Speaker 1: tell you that it's not gonna happen. Right, And I
Speaker 1: get it. You know, this is the reason this trade
Speaker 1: happened is because they didn't like dealing with Luca. It
Speaker 1: was a lot to work with him. They were about
Speaker 1: to have spa him seventy million year. They had no
Speaker 1: control over him, and they didn't like how teams were
Speaker 1: targeting him on defense, and they chose go in another direction.
Speaker 1: The problem is, I get it, Nico loved a d
Speaker 1: loves Ad. He may be stuck in the way he
Speaker 1: feels about Ad from six years ago. Because if you
Speaker 1: traded for twenty six year old Ad, it's a better deal.
Speaker 1: Or if you I mean, it's almost like he dealt
Speaker 1: with the Lakers from a point of weakness. I have
Speaker 1: to trade Luca because Luca's tainted goods. All right. Well,
Speaker 1: if I'm gonna take Luke off your hands, I can't
Speaker 1: pay full price for because you're not you're telling me,
Speaker 1: you're telling me you're not trading me full power Luca. Right,
Speaker 1: he's a problem for you have to get rid of. Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: then I can't pay full price. I mean, all that
Speaker 1: None of that matters, because all that matters is that
Speaker 1: the GM wanted a d and he went and got
Speaker 1: his guy. He went and got his guy and and
Speaker 1: you know, we'll listen to this audio coming up at
Speaker 1: four o'clock and people can decide for themselves. But one
Speaker 1: thing that is true that I agree with what Nico said.
Speaker 1: He hasn't publicly said anything negative about Luka Doncic. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he hasn't. People are taking what reporters have said the
Speaker 1: Mavericks think and it's not on record stuff, and so
Speaker 1: we're inferring from these reports that Nico thinks this, this, this,
Speaker 1: and I think it's all very reasonable. But to Nico's point,
Speaker 1: if you go on what's on the record, he's never
Speaker 1: said anything negative about Luka Doncic. And you know, he's
Speaker 1: not the only person in the world that doesn't think
Speaker 1: Luca's a great defensive player. Luca knew that criticism, which
Speaker 1: is why for the last year and a half, Luca's
Speaker 1: been pointing out his defensive qualities that have been good. Right,
Speaker 1: there's a reason he's done that. And then obviously Nico's
Speaker 1: on record is saying he loves Anthony Davis.
Speaker 4: Real quill Quick when you take the reporting and then
Speaker 4: you add that to the hot stove, that is the
Speaker 4: anger of MAVs fans.
Speaker 1: You get burned.
Speaker 4: And that's why people were saying it was a burn
Speaker 4: And that's how I'm gonna end that segment.
Speaker 1: Yeah, now that's why I like that segment so great.
Speaker 1: Coming up next in the Hollywood Shuffle, which huge celebrity
Speaker 1: both in girth and in status pooped their pants. Well,
Speaker 1: just sit through this commercial break and think about it
Speaker 1: and wait, that's nuts. All right, Happy Monday, everybody you
Speaker 1: are rolling would the Been and Skin Show. Glad to
Speaker 1: have you on board. We are cooking with grease obviously.
Speaker 1: Throughout the day we'll be getting back into the Dallas
Speaker 1: Maverick stuff, the Nico press conference, the bombshell articles that
Speaker 1: have dropped just the end of the season.
Speaker 2: All that.
Speaker 1: We'll get back into the Nico stuff coming up at
Speaker 1: four o'clock. You don't want to miss that with us.
Speaker 1: But right now, stop with this.
Speaker 5: Juicy moves, hot gods. Come stay on top in the shovel.
Speaker 4: All right, big weekend and the next hour we'll get
Speaker 4: into some big movie news over the weekend as well.
Speaker 1: But uh, I came across this.
Speaker 4: I don't know why, but there's a talk show that
Speaker 4: is hosted during the day.
Speaker 1: Your host is Jennifer Hudson.
Speaker 4: The guests that she had on are one Luke Bryan
Speaker 4: and the other guy that you just can't seem to
Speaker 4: get away from. Everywhere you turn, he's there. In fact,
Speaker 4: I pulled out my compass the other day and it
Speaker 4: was just his face. Which direction are we going? Jelly
Speaker 4: Roll He's everywhere. You can't He's your He's your wallpaper
Speaker 4: on your phone right now and you didn't even know it.
Speaker 1: Ye oh, bless Jesus your phone. There he is. It's
Speaker 1: jelly Roll. It's amazing.
Speaker 4: I swear to God. You go walk around, maybe you
Speaker 4: just want to go bump into someone in the office.
Speaker 4: You see jelly Roll on the walls of iHeart everywhere.
Speaker 1: Which is just amazing.
Speaker 4: You can't miss him. So here he is on Jennifer
Speaker 4: Hudson's daytime talk show. You gotta be ready for Luke
Speaker 4: Brian's crazy voice.
Speaker 1: It's very strange.
Speaker 6: What's the most embarrassing thing that's happened to you while performing?
Speaker 1: I pooped myself one time. Okay, there's more, but oh,
Speaker 1: it's a good start.
Speaker 7: Man.
Speaker 1: A guy that size pooping himself just out there on stage. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't. You know, the whole pooping yourself is not
Speaker 1: really a problem for me, which is why when Skins
Speaker 1: started hanging out with those legendary poopers that just for
Speaker 1: what was the golf club called Lakewood, the Lakewood Poop Band.
Speaker 1: It's all these guys poop themselves every year, so they
Speaker 1: have a bet with each other to see who does
Speaker 1: it first, and that's the big loser. I thought, Man,
Speaker 1: I don't this isn't even worth talking about. Nobody poops
Speaker 1: their pants, And then our text messages exploded with people
Speaker 1: admitting to pooping their pants. So I guess this is
Speaker 1: the thing, and you know he's communicating it the way
Speaker 1: that he best can. But everyone has pooped themselves because
Speaker 1: we were old babies once, but Jelly Roll is saying
Speaker 1: he did it recently while performing. The question is very specific.
Speaker 6: What's the most embarrassing thing that's happened to you while performing?
Speaker 4: Okay, that could be my guitar. I broke a string,
Speaker 4: you know, my voice cracked. Oh, I had a booger.
Speaker 1: You know, you gives me a lot of things. If
Speaker 1: it's Lenny Kravitz. My pants split, my dog fell out.
Speaker 1: My dog fell out, and everyone was okay with that.
Speaker 1: It was my pants split and a log fell out.
Speaker 6: What's the most embarrassing thing that's happened to you?
Speaker 1: Wow Performing? I pooped myself one time. I did. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: I listen. I did.
Speaker 6: I'm so sorry myself one time, Wow Performing, I pooped.
Speaker 1: Myself one time. I did. I'm sorry, I listen. It
Speaker 1: was what they call it. I didn't know. I was coughident,
Speaker 1: it was all there. It was not. I watched this
Speaker 1: crowd go from loving me to just being completely out.
Speaker 1: He's completely out. That's why we love him out there. Wait,
Speaker 1: that's why we love him because he craps himself. Dude.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine if they come out with jelly roll
Speaker 1: jelly roll adult diapers? Now, dude, look, Ryan just said
Speaker 1: that's why we have him around.
Speaker 4: It's not because he's good at what he does and
Speaker 4: that he sounds good and said he poops himself.
Speaker 1: He's kind of funny, big guy. You want to have
Speaker 1: one of those in your career. Okay, with his name
Speaker 1: being his last name being Roll, we could very easily
Speaker 1: have a toilet paper endorsement yeah.
Speaker 4: You know, I'm sure all of these ideas. His team's
Speaker 4: been sitting on things.
Speaker 1: Forever because his name is jelly roll.
Speaker 4: And I don't know if enough people have asked why,
Speaker 4: and I haven't looked that too too far into it,
Speaker 4: because what even.
Speaker 1: Is a jelly roll? It's not jelly donut? Right, I
Speaker 1: thought it was a fritter. I mean, I don't even
Speaker 1: know what it is. Well, it's a I think it
Speaker 1: probably falls in the category of Danish you know those.
Speaker 4: It's like a little little Debbie snack there, like the
Speaker 4: strawberry shortcakes.
Speaker 1: It's more like that. Okay, let me ask you this.
Speaker 1: What's more famous? Jelly roll or a jelly roll, jelly
Speaker 1: roll the performer or the Danish. I just searched jelly
Speaker 1: roll and what came up? All right, well that guy,
Speaker 1: the guy over, If you could you please google jelly
Speaker 1: roll pastry and see what category it falls in or
Speaker 1: does it just broadly fall in pastry?
Speaker 7: Uh?
Speaker 4: It comes up under I mean I put what is
Speaker 4: a jelly roll? And there's a picture of him and
Speaker 4: his silver teeth and his tattoo. Taste jelly roll cake,
Speaker 4: dirty diaper. Oh, it says it's a cake. Huh, yeah,
Speaker 4: I don't know. It's very strange. Hold on, now, I
Speaker 4: want you to listen to Luke Bryan says here, because
Speaker 4: are we just you know, I've said there's like sports funny,
Speaker 4: where sports guys don't have to work too hard to
Speaker 4: be funny, like a low hanging fruit joke will really
Speaker 4: pass the test. I've now determined that there's country funny.
Speaker 4: So country funny is gonna be. What the line that
Speaker 4: Luke Brian issues here that gets Jelly roll, It gets
Speaker 4: the crowd. Jennifer Hudson just sits there. She did not
Speaker 4: understand it.
Speaker 1: She don't want to hang out with these white guys.
Speaker 1: Completely out.
Speaker 2: He's completely out.
Speaker 1: That's why we love him out there and I over
Speaker 1: shared him.
Speaker 6: You're thinking you will's and turning like, how am I
Speaker 6: gonna top that?
Speaker 4: My problem was I didn't really get embarrassed about it
Speaker 4: when I did it.
Speaker 1: Oh no, that was amazing. Why's so good about that?
Speaker 1: So he's saying he pooped his pants also, but didn't
Speaker 1: get embarrassed, And.
Speaker 4: I didn't get embarrassed by It's what he's saying, that
Speaker 4: was his joke. So when this happens, jelly Rol grabs
Speaker 4: Luke Bryan and starts shaking him like he's trying to
Speaker 4: empty his pockets.
Speaker 1: He cragary thing. He couldn't help himself. He just started
Speaker 1: like hyperventilating. Look Brian with a singer. You know who's
Speaker 1: loving all of this. Jennifer Hudson. Oh, no, I know, Fergie. Fergy.
Speaker 1: Fergie's loving this because here's just a couple of guys
Speaker 1: about how frequently they pooped themselves while performing, and She's like,
Speaker 1: no one's talking about that one time I just urinated
Speaker 1: all down in my leg.
Speaker 4: That's what you went to because I went to the
Speaker 4: Kelly Clarkson story of the time she claimed that she
Speaker 4: had to go so bad she ran off stage and
Speaker 4: they had someone got like a home depot bucket over there,
Speaker 4: and she that thing up.
Speaker 1: I respect that because if I was having digestive issues,
Speaker 1: I would cancel the performance. Really, she's she's real the
Speaker 1: show must go on type. If you were over there
Speaker 1: going to town in a home depot bucket, would you
Speaker 1: ask somebody to bring you something to read? Yes, hold
Speaker 1: on someone sports page. Somebody hold their phone in front
Speaker 1: of my eyes and scroll with their finger when I
Speaker 1: tell them to. Hey, the audience which you'll come back
Speaker 1: out though the crowd. Wait, if you're pooping at a
Speaker 1: home depot bucket, are you grabbing the sides of it?
Speaker 1: How are you?
Speaker 4: You're not really thinking about it, You're just running to
Speaker 4: it and sitting because he had to go, so.
Speaker 1: You don't sit on a bucket though, is like, hey, man,
Speaker 1: have I had something in there? I had my lunch
Speaker 1: and I'm sorry. There's a couple of tools in here.
Speaker 1: There's a hammer and some nails. Somebody cleaned this up
Speaker 1: for the carpenter. All right, there you have it.
Speaker 2: J J.
Speaker 1: Roll pooped himself and admitted it to the world. That's
Speaker 1: why we have him around. Yeah, all right, coming up
Speaker 1: in less than four minutes, A strange new celebrity couple.

Speaker 4: Yeah, we got a real strange one right here, guys.
Speaker 4: I saw yesterday that they've gone ahead and made it official.
Speaker 4: Billy Ray Cyrus is now dating Elizabeth Hurley.
Speaker 1: When you say dating, do you mean they're just having
Speaker 1: sex or he's taking her to dinner. I'm sure they're
Speaker 1: having I'm sure they've had a couple of dinners. Sounds
Speaker 1: like they've gone to a Chili's. I bet you like
Speaker 1: triple dippers, Liz, and I feel like I feel like
Speaker 1: I could be reading her wrong because I thought she
Speaker 1: would be in a class that was he couldn't reach.
Speaker 4: That's why that's my whole point of doing this, outside
Speaker 4: of something in a second, is that this is hope
Speaker 4: for everyone out there.
Speaker 1: This is hope for everyone. Why are you guys holding
Speaker 1: holding Liz Hurley in such High's sixty and she's doing great,
Speaker 1: She's smoking hot, She's just got a British accent, so
Speaker 1: she seems smarter than she probably is. He's a guy
Speaker 1: that probably eats dirt sandwiches. He's about as smart as
Speaker 1: a box of rocks. He uh. Now, I guess her
Speaker 1: most high profile relationship before this was Hugh Grant, right, Yes,
Speaker 1: wasn't she dating Hugh Grant when he had sex with
Speaker 1: that hooker?
Speaker 4: I don't know if those timelines. I think is right
Speaker 4: after that, Okay, are you sure?
Speaker 1: I think so. I think this is like late nine
Speaker 1: because that was what that was. I don't remember, but
Speaker 1: it's basically what gave Jay Leno momentum. He went on
Speaker 1: for another decade. Hugh Grant went on there and admitted that, yes,
Speaker 1: I had sex with that hooker right like, right on
Speaker 1: a side street. Not a great look for her. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think I'm I'm willing to bet human money that
Speaker 1: he was dating Liz Hurley when that happened. Okay, but
Speaker 1: I could again, I'm old now and I forget a
Speaker 1: lot of details. Oh, he does matter, and that could
Speaker 1: be an unfair, unfair reflection on her. Why does that
Speaker 1: have to be about her? Well, I'm just saying now
Speaker 1: that she's with Billy Ray Cyrus. I think we're yeah,
Speaker 1: because has she not been in a single news item
Speaker 1: since that happened with you? She's been in a bunch,
Speaker 1: And this is why we're doing this. Okay. Do you
Speaker 1: guys remember the movie she was in about a year ago. Yes, Well,
Speaker 1: this I might not have been with the show at
Speaker 1: the time we did this. I don't remember it at all.
Speaker 4: So basically, her son was the director directing her, and
Speaker 4: she's in a lot of sex scenes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what was it?
Speaker 4: Yep, strictly confidential? Maazing straight to cable.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 4: No, I mean, well, a lot of things are Was
Speaker 4: there another human in it that we've heard of?
Speaker 1: Ummmmm no, yeah no.
Speaker 4: But the point is it was a big story because
Speaker 4: she gets naked a bunch of sex scenes with chicks
Speaker 4: and with guys and her sons. The producer he's like, yeah,
Speaker 4: he cast her for that role. I love to put
Speaker 4: mommy in these sex scenes and.
Speaker 1: That's a weird thing to Okay, was it strictly confidential?
Speaker 1: Is that what you're talking about? Yeah? Think so, Mummy
Speaker 1: is hot? Strictly confidential. A haunted young woman finds herself
Speaker 1: drawn into a world of seduction, duplicity, and betrayal as
Speaker 1: she desperately tries to uncover the mystery surrounding her best
Speaker 1: friend's suicide. Definitely terrible got a two point eight out
Speaker 1: of ten. Is it an episode of Red Shoe Diaries?
Speaker 1: So think about that. It had eight hundred and fifty
Speaker 1: two votes and it's ever two points.
Speaker 4: This is what is happening. Did you see how low
Speaker 4: her career's gotten? And then last time we heard from
Speaker 4: Billy Cyrus, this happened.
Speaker 1: You know what.
Speaker 8: Hell, just stab your fingers. That's okay, Bud, that's okay.
Speaker 8: You can tell the world you never was my girl.
Speaker 8: You can burn my clothes up when I'm gone gone
Speaker 8: like I said, Or you can tell your frayn just
Speaker 8: what a fool of ben and laughing joke about me
Speaker 8: on the phone. He don't tell my heart, my hegg
Speaker 8: can break your heart. I just don't think you don't understand.
Speaker 1: Make the stop. And if you tell my heart finished,
Speaker 1: you break your heart.
Speaker 8: He might blow up and kill a span.
Speaker 1: Thank you good night. Oh no, I actually think that
Speaker 1: that's right. In Liz Hurley's cousin, we have not heard
Speaker 1: for her in thirty years, except for when she had
Speaker 1: a bunch of sex scenes with her son watching Man.
Speaker 1: Remember you can't get his guitar to plug in. I
Speaker 1: still hold her at a higher regard than that Billy Raisers,
Speaker 1: I think, I think so. Yeah. Absolutely, he's out kicking
Speaker 1: his coverage right there, all right, coming up next. Don't
Speaker 1: go anywhere in just a few minutes, we're gonna get
Speaker 1: back into the Nico audio that's coming your way in
Speaker 1: the four o'clock hour the Ben and Skin Show. All right,
Speaker 1: we're about to get into to all the Nico stuff.
Speaker 1: We've got audio we'll play for you from his presser
Speaker 1: and we'll talk about all that. This segment is brought
Speaker 1: to you by Hurtado Barbecue, some of the best barbecue
Speaker 1: you could ever have in Yell Life. Brandon Hurtado spin
Speaker 1: on Mexicu Mexican Barbecue. They have a location Mansfield, one
Speaker 1: in Arlington, one in Fort Worth, now one in Dallas
Speaker 1: at the Farmers Market, which is pretty darn new, and
Speaker 1: then two locations in Globe Live Field. And Brandon's an
Speaker 1: author as well. We highly encourage you to go read
Speaker 1: his book about Barbaricola. But right now it's time for this.
Speaker 8: Now, let's go around the sports KTU tweets as all
Speaker 8: the sports.
Speaker 4: One PM KO Harrison for the postseason press conference with
Speaker 4: tons of Dallas media members.
Speaker 1: Let's get it on. Isaac Harris coming in from the turnbuckle.
Speaker 1: Why shouldn't you be fired?
Speaker 4: Okay, why was Nate Bargazzi at thes collar?
Speaker 1: Want to hear that again, why shouldn't you be fired?
Speaker 9: Well, One, I think I've done a really good job
Speaker 9: here and I don't think I can be judged by
Speaker 9: the injuries this year. You have to judge the from totality,
Speaker 9: from beginning to end. And so I think I have
Speaker 9: a really good working relationship with Patrick. I think you
Speaker 9: had and Rick. The leadership that we have is really elite.
Speaker 9: And you'll see next year when our team comes back,
Speaker 9: we're going to be competing for a championship.
Speaker 1: Suck on that, haters. When we come back and win
Speaker 1: a championship next year, you'll forget all about seventy seven.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you, guys, reasonably, how is he supposed
Speaker 1: to answer that question. It's not a question for an answer,
Speaker 1: it an possible question answer. It's it's it's the people's
Speaker 1: champion question. It's you know, and it's uh, it's from
Speaker 1: It's not the credited journalism and that. It's just that,
Speaker 1: hey man, this is open to Dallas media. This fringe
Speaker 1: of media is like I dig it, it's entertainment, it's podcast,
Speaker 1: all those sorts of things. I think he's really good
Speaker 1: at what he does. And yeah, that was just like
Speaker 1: taking a shot man. I'm friends with Isaac like and
Speaker 1: I know you are too. Yeah, and uh, and what
Speaker 1: he does with Nick I think is great. And our
Speaker 1: buddy slightly biased is on there. And I don't I'm
Speaker 1: not saying you edited that wrong at all. No, No,
Speaker 1: there's there's lead up. Yeah, And and but I think
Speaker 1: he's laying out the case, including the fire Nico chance,
Speaker 1: so he's not coming in shock chock of hey, why
Speaker 1: should you know? But again, without criticizing anybody, because I
Speaker 1: I was sitting there in that press conference, I could
Speaker 1: have asked questions. So I'm not criticizing anybody. But uh,
Speaker 1: I don't know that anybody's gonna get the answer they want.
Speaker 1: And quite frankly, I'm sitting there going, okay, if I
Speaker 1: was Nico, you know, the answer to the question is
Speaker 1: that's a question for Patrick Doom. I don't hire or
Speaker 1: fire myself. What do you want from me? But for
Speaker 1: that's the people's champ question, because that's the one that
Speaker 1: probably fans are like, hell, yes, thank you. Finally someone
Speaker 1: asked the question you need to be asked. It's not
Speaker 1: going to be productive because he can't really answer it honestly.
Speaker 1: And now I wasn't there, And I don't want to
Speaker 1: be critical of anybody for the question he asked. I
Speaker 1: was dying to have people asked the McMahon questions, right,
Speaker 1: because for me, the most powerful thing is they fired
Speaker 1: Casey Smith. That probably led to losing Luca and losing
Speaker 1: Dirk maybe at least that's what Tim McMahon is pointing out.
Speaker 1: And so that's one of the most important firings in
Speaker 1: the history of Dallas Maverick's basketball and it happened over
Speaker 1: a zoom call while a guy was with his dying mother. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I would uh, I would have loved for, you know,
Speaker 1: questions to be asked about that, just so I could
Speaker 1: hear because it's, you know, again, this is uh, Tim
Speaker 1: McMahon's version of what happened, and so I think there's
Speaker 1: a way to ask it. I don't think it's my
Speaker 1: place to go in there and ask it as someone
Speaker 1: who's on the MAVs TV broadcast, but I think that
Speaker 1: there's a way to ask the question. Do you refute
Speaker 1: any of this reporting? Because I just saw Tim up
Speaker 1: on television. He's in Oklahoma City, he's covering that series,
Speaker 1: so he can't be there. But I would I would
Speaker 1: have as having read that today and going my god,
Speaker 1: this and seeing people's responses to it. I would have
Speaker 1: loved to have heard Nico on the record respond to that.
Speaker 1: But again, I'm not criticizing anybody for how they went
Speaker 1: about what they did today. Everybody had their own story
Speaker 1: that they wanted to write or that they wanted to cover,
Speaker 1: and they asked the questions I wanted to ask. Tim
Speaker 1: McMahon wrote the story. He wasn't there, so there you go. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we needed Tim there. I wish Tim could have been there.
Speaker 1: There was a question from CAROLDI ten eighty. I'm like, a,
Speaker 1: we could probably do without that one. I actually liked
Speaker 1: the rust of Scott question. Then it's pretty good. Do
Speaker 1: you have it?
Speaker 4: Well, oh, let me say, let me be fair to
Speaker 4: iss too. We added that because it's perfect for our
Speaker 4: short radio segments. Yeah, but I could say, like, none
Speaker 4: of us have ever been booed by twenty thousand people
Speaker 4: calling for our job like he set it up.
Speaker 1: Please understand, I'm not criticized. Oh no, no, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I'm not either. I think again, it's the most gratifying
Speaker 1: question that was asked for the fan base, I think.
Speaker 1: But it's an impossible one to answer. Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: don't know you may have. Do you have any of
Speaker 1: the stuff where people are asking about Luca winning championships
Speaker 1: with defense?
Speaker 4: I have a bunch of How about this one is
Speaker 4: in your mind? Is Luca a championship player?
Speaker 9: When you look at Luka Doncic, do you consider him
Speaker 9: a championship level player? You know, that's kind of an
Speaker 9: unfair question. Luca is no longer on this team. But
Speaker 9: what I am excited about is I do believe we
Speaker 9: have a championship caliber team and we'll show that next year.
Speaker 4: And that was on the heels of two other questions
Speaker 4: about defense wins championships and that thing that we did
Speaker 4: last week.
Speaker 1: This is up to the discretion of the league. But
Speaker 1: if he started talking about a play that's not on
Speaker 1: his team, he can get fined by the league. Yeah,
Speaker 1: marywhind Magic Johnson went on Kimmel and then talking, you know,
Speaker 1: trying to get an He worked for the Lakers organization,
Speaker 1: so that gets that's a very slippery slope. So again
Speaker 1: I get the question, and I'm intrigued by what is
Speaker 1: he going to answer? But if he if he starts
Speaker 1: evaluating Luca as a championship caliber player or not he
Speaker 1: can get fined because that player plays for the Lakers.
Speaker 10: To the anger and outrage from the fan base. Has
Speaker 10: that exceeded what you were kind of planning for?
Speaker 9: Yeah, good question. I did know that Luca was important
Speaker 9: to the to the fan base. I didn't quite know
Speaker 9: it to the to what level. But really the way
Speaker 9: we looked at it is, you know, if you're putting
Speaker 9: on the if you're putting a team on the floor
Speaker 9: that's Kyrie, Clay PJ, Anthony Davis and Lively, we feel
Speaker 9: that's a championship caliber team, and we would have been
Speaker 9: winning at a high level and that would have quieted
Speaker 9: some of that and so unfortunately we weren't able to
Speaker 9: do that, so it just continued to, you know, go
Speaker 9: on and on.
Speaker 1: It would have helped, it would have helped it. Still,
Speaker 1: shortening the window by six years and not getting full
Speaker 1: return for Luca hurts no matter what. But even if
Speaker 1: your tiny little two year window plan was healthy and
Speaker 1: we got to see it and they were winning, it
Speaker 1: would have helped a little bit. It would have been
Speaker 1: better than this. I would say, like that is an
Speaker 1: accurate answer in that if you're not playing heavy minutes
Speaker 1: to Kessler Edwards and you have your team that you
Speaker 1: saw against Houston out there. There would still be lots
Speaker 1: of horribly upset people that want Nico fired, but the
Speaker 1: chance wouldn't be there, you know what I'm saying. If
Speaker 1: you're winning at a high level, people aren't in there
Speaker 1: yelling negative stuff like I don't even remember in the
Speaker 1: history of sports having seen that. Anyway, even with.
Speaker 4: Winning, you still have Luca coming back and the emotional
Speaker 4: return and all that that still destroys people. So there's
Speaker 4: no the winning. I know that's the answer he has
Speaker 4: to say, but it's not. No one's going to feel
Speaker 4: better by anything.
Speaker 1: But you still traded for a guy that's six years
Speaker 1: older who's always hurt, and then he got here and
Speaker 1: he was hurt. Yeah, So I mean, like, I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: that's aside from whatever emotion you want to take out
Speaker 1: of it, emotional attachment to the player, which I think
Speaker 1: it's fair to do. And we'll play more Nico stuff
Speaker 1: in a minute. What Ben said is if you did
Speaker 1: do if you take the emotion out of it, it's
Speaker 1: completely accurate. You can reasonably say you traded for a
Speaker 1: player that's significantly older, that has a back bad track
Speaker 1: record of health. That's a fair criticism of the trade.
Speaker 1: That has nothing to do with emotional attachment to Luca.
Speaker 4: Sure, well, what happens when he's asked if he knows
Speaker 4: that people hate him? Because he was asked that today,
Speaker 4: and how do you respond to that?
Speaker 1: Ax? Okay, that's the next don't go to her. That's
Speaker 1: in less than four minutes. That's coming up, all right.
Speaker 1: It's the ben and skin shown up in point one
Speaker 1: the Eagle. A day of freaking out across Mavland. Actually
Speaker 1: that's been every day since February second. It just really
Speaker 1: came to a head. The Mavericks season ended Friday night
Speaker 1: in rather humiliating fashion. Is Memphis whooped that ass? And
Speaker 1: then Memphis got fed to Oklahoma City and lost by
Speaker 1: fifty Did anybody want yeah? Oh my god? Yeah? Can
Speaker 1: you imagine being the Mavericks having to play them at
Speaker 1: noon on Sunday after after flying to Sacramento, flying back
Speaker 1: to Memphis, flying Oklahoma City. Oh, that would have been ugly.
Speaker 1: But the season is over. Nico Harrison had a press
Speaker 1: conference at one o'clock today on the heels of three
Speaker 1: I'd say two explosive articles, one from Tim Cato, but
Speaker 1: the one from Tim McMahon was really explosive and if
Speaker 1: you haven't read it, Tim wrote in ESPN that a
Speaker 1: big division happened between the Mavericks and Dirt Noovinski after
Speaker 1: Nico unceremoniously relieved Casey Smith, longtime gold medal winning head
Speaker 1: of the medical staff for the Mavericks, who had been
Speaker 1: a longtime friend of Dirt Novitski of Jason Kidd, had
Speaker 1: Luca's trust and he, according to Tim McMahon, fired him
Speaker 1: right after Casey went to Dirk's Hall of Fame event
Speaker 1: and did it over zoom while Casey was caring for
Speaker 1: his gravely ill mother. This was according to Tim McMahon.
Speaker 1: So then this comes out today, Niko does the exit
Speaker 1: interview today, the local media has access. I was sitting
Speaker 1: there in the room, I had access. I didn't say anything.
Speaker 1: I just watched it all unfold. But Katie has been
Speaker 1: playing a bunch of clips from it.
Speaker 4: Okay, So Dorothy Gentry is a reporter here and then
Speaker 4: nice lady, right, I love Doring. I did not expect
Speaker 4: this question come from her, though, I thought this is
Speaker 4: pretty heavy.
Speaker 1: The fans are upset, almost hate. I have to say
Speaker 1: the word are you dealing with that?
Speaker 9: One?
Speaker 1: And then two? Do you understand how they feel?
Speaker 6: I think they want to know that you feel their
Speaker 6: pain about losing Luca.
Speaker 1: What can you stay to them?
Speaker 9: Well, when you have twenty thousand people in this stadium,
Speaker 9: chanting fire and NiCl, you you really feel it. I
Speaker 9: mean it's I use the word awesome, but not in
Speaker 9: a positive way, like.
Speaker 4: I have to stop it here. I've never used the
Speaker 4: word awesome in a not positive way.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think by definition he's right about the word,
Speaker 1: but the way we use it in our popular vernacular.
Speaker 4: I just went and took a bunch of wiz, took
Speaker 4: a whiz and a bunch of blood came out awesome.
Speaker 1: It's not a good thing. I think. Like if he
Speaker 1: were to say awe inspiring, but even that wouldn't connect.
Speaker 1: I think the word he would probably rather use as
Speaker 1: it was overwhelming disapproving. The disapproval is deafening.
Speaker 9: Yeah, when you have twenty thousand people in this stadium,
Speaker 9: chanting fire and NiCl, you you really feel it. I
Speaker 9: mean it's I use the word awesome, but not in
Speaker 9: a positive way, like you can really feel how they feel.
Speaker 1: So, yes, I feel them.
Speaker 9: How am I doing? I'm good? You know I said
Speaker 9: this last week. God's got me covered. I have an amazing
Speaker 9: family and an amazing support group to get through it.
Speaker 9: But no, I absolutely feel it. But I'm also you know,
Speaker 9: my job is to make decisions that I feel in
Speaker 9: the best interest of this organization, and I got to
Speaker 9: stand by the decision. And some of them are gonna
Speaker 9: be unpopular, and this was clearly one that's unpopular.
Speaker 4: Not gonna win anyone over. But that's not the goal
Speaker 4: of his press conference today, probably right.
Speaker 1: I think he has zero intent to quote unquote win
Speaker 1: anybody over. Oh no, I don't think he thinks that
Speaker 1: way at all. No, it's he that's not what his
Speaker 1: that's not how he rolls.
Speaker 4: Yeah, how about the memes from the game Friday night now,
Speaker 4: because we can talk about that, the no emotion things
Speaker 4: get into that at the five o'clock hour. Yeah, the
Speaker 4: scene where Anthony Davis gets hurt. ESPN's got a camera
Speaker 4: trained on him. All that, the side eye, he side eye.
Speaker 4: I mean, it's like he just he's if he wants
Speaker 4: to be a villain. I mean, he's done a good job.
Speaker 1: I don't think he wants to be a villain. I
Speaker 1: just think it does either everything that's and is that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he has become the biggest sports villain in the history
Speaker 1: of df W, I think. And dude, the guy yeah,
Speaker 1: And and the guy who's probably happiest about all of
Speaker 1: it is Jerry Jones. Dude, have a great year. I mean, dude,
Speaker 1: he was on the hot seat. And then Nico says,
Speaker 1: I'll take that for you. I mean, it's dude.
Speaker 4: And also we're three days over the draft and there
Speaker 4: no one's talking about that.
Speaker 1: Has anybody Has anybody talked to Dumont about what's going
Speaker 1: to happen in twenty seven, twenty eight, twenty nine and
Speaker 1: thirty or whatever when they don't have any of their
Speaker 1: first round picks. Has anybody even broke that down to
Speaker 1: him at all? This is we built this team around Luca,
Speaker 1: and then everyone here is because they fit well with Luca.
Speaker 1: Then we traded Luca, got six years older, got a
Speaker 1: player who's always hurt, did not get full return on
Speaker 1: the trade, and don't have any of our picks after
Speaker 1: this little three year window ends. You know, let's talk.
Speaker 1: Let's pick it up later, all right, we'll get back
Speaker 1: into a little We'll get back into a little bit later.
Speaker 1: Coming up next though, movie talk, Let's talk about the
Speaker 1: movie that had everybody he buzzing this weekend. That's coming
Speaker 1: up next on the Ben Skin Show. Thanks for making
Speaker 1: the Ben and Skin Show a part of your daily routine.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get back into all the Maverick stuff coming
Speaker 1: up here momentarily. We got a news quickie coming up.
Speaker 1: We got the Today Game, but right now it's time
Speaker 1: for this.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I just make sure that my lightning was charged.
Speaker 4: Uh, Okay, that's my fault.
Speaker 8: Fuck.
Speaker 1: We know that it's a movie too.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's what I do to just make my wheelie
Speaker 4: get moving a little bit, right, A little shot collar action.
Speaker 1: To free Willie. Movie talk.
Speaker 4: Okay, so the movie talk of the weekend, which is
Speaker 4: weird because not every weekend anymore?
Speaker 1: Are you like, wait, what happened? Dropped at the theaters?
Speaker 4: Because once a monthor we like there's a big movie,
Speaker 4: maybe less than that these days.
Speaker 1: It's gotten kind of weird.
Speaker 4: But this is a movie that I've seen the trailer
Speaker 4: of I'm not kidding you, I think five times, because
Speaker 4: I've probably seen five movies and the last five or
Speaker 4: six months. If I've been to a movie recently, then
Speaker 4: I've seen this in the previews. The trailer for the
Speaker 4: movie Sinners, starring not one.
Speaker 1: But two Michael B.
Speaker 4: Jordan's Hey off to a good start, right, also starring
Speaker 4: the wife of Bill's quarterback, Josh Allen Hailey Steinfeld.
Speaker 1: I don't I know that name, but I couldn't place her.
Speaker 1: What does she do? What's your thing?
Speaker 4: She's in Sinners, okay, and she's done some other things.
Speaker 1: And I'm telling you, if you watch that and you're like, okay,
Speaker 1: this this could be good.
Speaker 4: But also there's a twist where they're definitely zombies or
Speaker 4: vampires or something, but it's a you know, it's directed
Speaker 4: by Ryan Coogler, the koug the guy who did Black Panther.
Speaker 4: He goes by the koog and okay, And then you
Speaker 4: go to a movie again the next month.
Speaker 1: And you see it again. I don't need to see
Speaker 1: this trailer again, and then I own so I've seen
Speaker 1: the trailer a bunch.
Speaker 4: Therefore, my interest in this movie was not high, and
Speaker 4: I'll be damn to fall over my timeline. Over the weekend,
Speaker 4: it was people ranning and raving about your box office
Speaker 4: winner this weekend, Sinners, which collected forty eight million dollars
Speaker 4: and beat the Minecraft movie. So have y'all seen anything
Speaker 4: about it?
Speaker 1: Yeah, my timeline was exploding people talking about it. But
Speaker 1: I don't really know a ton about it. I've seen
Speaker 1: some of the buzz leading up to it, and then
Speaker 1: I saw that it was out and that people were
Speaker 1: loving it, but I don't really even know what it's about.
Speaker 1: I watch a lot of NBA basketball and it has
Speaker 1: been promoted heavily on national NBA broadcast for months.
Speaker 4: Okay, so you know, I'm very aware of it. And
Speaker 4: also if you see Michael B. Jordan, you're like, Okay,
Speaker 4: there he is. Yeah, guess hot, right?
Speaker 1: And then also I should say that depending on how
Speaker 1: deep you want to get on this, Basically, ever since
Speaker 1: Get Out came out, there has been a lot of
Speaker 1: So basically throughout time, horror movies has represented oppressed people
Speaker 1: like very famously. All out the thirties and forties, gay
Speaker 1: directors would make horror movies in which the monster represents
Speaker 1: homosexuality because you couldn't put that in movies in the
Speaker 1: thirties and forties. So what's happened over the last basically
Speaker 1: since Get Out came out, there's been a lot of
Speaker 1: quote unquote thrillers and or horror films that have been
Speaker 1: used as a vehicle to represent the black experience in America.
Speaker 1: So when I saw these commercials, I had a very
Speaker 1: good idea kind of the path that we were going
Speaker 1: down here.
Speaker 4: So I thought I had a pretty good idea of
Speaker 4: the path were going down with this movie because in
Speaker 4: the trailer, it was one of those trailers where you're like,
Speaker 4: what else could they put in the trailer? They've showed
Speaker 4: me what happens in this movie. So Michael B. Jordan
Speaker 4: and his brother they come back. I'm not there's no
Speaker 4: spoilers here. This is all in the previews. They would
Speaker 4: show you a movie Michael B. Jordan and his brother
Speaker 4: Michael C.
Speaker 1: Is that right? I don't know. So they're coming back
Speaker 1: really town. No, there's two of them. So oh he's
Speaker 1: playing two different people.
Speaker 5: Yah.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Oh they're brothers and twin brothers. So they're coming back
Speaker 4: to their hometown and it's in Mississippi vibe and we're.
Speaker 1: Going back to the past.
Speaker 4: I know in the trailer there's a rattlesnake and uh,
Speaker 4: they one of the brothers hooks up with Hayley Steinfeld
Speaker 4: the van, but it turns out we learned that she's
Speaker 4: a zombie of some sort or a vampire. Okay, so
Speaker 4: that's that's the story. They're dealing with vampires.
Speaker 1: And that's it. That's all sell me.
Speaker 4: That's that's That's kind of how I would sell it
Speaker 4: if I based on the trailer. But you go to
Speaker 4: movie experts online, such as Chris Arnold, Let's go, here's
Speaker 4: what he told me about this movie on Twitter A plus.
Speaker 1: Don't leave after the credits roll.
Speaker 4: Like, but don't leave until after because you stay there
Speaker 4: at some point the movie. Don't leave after the credit,
Speaker 4: stay there, see how long until they don't leave until
Speaker 4: after the credits.
Speaker 1: So you're saying that Chris Arnold liked this movie is
Speaker 1: so great, and every one did. There's an outlet called
Speaker 1: cinema Score.
Speaker 4: They gave it the first A plus movie review of
Speaker 4: a horror movie in thirty five years.
Speaker 1: Okay, now the last one.
Speaker 4: I don't know Cinema's score from my elbows or my ass,
Speaker 4: I don't know, but that seems like a pretty big
Speaker 4: thing now watching the previews, I would tell you not
Speaker 4: a horror movie. That's that's a thriller, but maybe it is.
Speaker 4: Maybe they snuck a horror element into it. And that's
Speaker 4: like you.
Speaker 1: Just told me old gals a zombie or something. She
Speaker 1: turns into one or into vampire. It's hard to tell.
Speaker 1: Put you in the horror film category. They definitely lock
Speaker 1: one of the Michael B.
Speaker 4: Jordan's in a room and he has been infected by
Speaker 4: said virus because his head does a little whack you
Speaker 4: kind of a spook thing at the end. Okay, so interesting,
Speaker 4: and I think I'm gonna go see it. Run Tomatoes
Speaker 4: all above ninety five percent. Okay, that is snow Paddington too.
Speaker 4: But I don't pretty good.
Speaker 1: I don't get out to the theater very often. Dude,
Speaker 1: you're kind of wait for it to get home.
Speaker 8: I know.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this. The other night I spent time
Speaker 1: watching teen Wolf. This is I sitting there discretion. I
Speaker 1: watched it from the top. You saw when the guy
Speaker 1: hung dong it the whole movie. I looked forward and
Speaker 1: I never saw it. I was looking for dong, yes
Speaker 1: version of it, looking for dong and all the wrong
Speaker 1: please looking for dong.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 1: And it's a really bad movie. And I invested time
Speaker 1: in that because it was at my house on my couch,
Speaker 1: but actually getting up and leaving and going somewhere. I
Speaker 1: need to do that more often. I would go see
Speaker 1: teen Wolf in the theater. I mean, I would you
Speaker 1: rather see teen Wolff. I'll put it to you like this.
Speaker 1: I'd rather get out and go see teen Wolf in
Speaker 1: the theaters than Miss Congeniality, which is coming back. Man.
Speaker 4: I told you guys, I saw yes for that, but
Speaker 4: both terrible things to go do.
Speaker 1: Watching Michael J. Fox play basketball, he was literally four
Speaker 1: foot eleven Michael J. Fox or Michael B. Jordan four.
Speaker 4: Adding another Michael B. Jordan there, And I think it's
Speaker 4: an easy answer. Ninety eight percent from the critics, ninety
Speaker 4: seven percent from the fans.
Speaker 1: Is it rated R? It is rated R? Are you
Speaker 1: gonna watch it? And then go read a bunch of
Speaker 1: think pieces? Probably not watch it? Though, yeah, yeah the film?
Speaker 1: All right, I do want to watch it now. I'm
Speaker 1: in Oh yeah, no, absolutely, like we'll probably gonna go
Speaker 1: this week because I don't. I'm sure the guys made
Speaker 1: other movies between this and Black Panther, but I thought
Speaker 1: Black Panther was freaking awesome. Yeah, it was one of
Speaker 1: the best movies I've seen in the last decade or so.
Speaker 4: You would like to know what else the Cougar has done,
Speaker 4: because Tomatoes did rank Ryan Cougler's movies, Okay, number two,
Speaker 4: Black Panther, Number three, Creed, Yeah, I did, Jordan.
Speaker 1: He only makes Michael B. Jordan movies. I did not
Speaker 1: have an I didn't get it. I did not have
Speaker 1: an interest in seeing Creed. I'm it may be great.
Speaker 1: I just a lot of people loved it, but I
Speaker 1: just don't know there was a sequel to it until
Speaker 1: they released the Sylvester Sloan porn. I feel like we
Speaker 1: can't really take anything they do. So one that Shackleford
Speaker 1: watched and transcribed amazing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Number four Fruitvale Station with oh yeah, Michael B.
Speaker 1: Jordan, Yes, fruit Veil Station. But that was before Black Panther, right,
Speaker 1: I believe, so, I think, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's
Speaker 1: a long time ago, right. Yeah.
Speaker 4: That thing is what put him on the map and
Speaker 4: he took over Black Panther. Yeah, and there we go.
Speaker 4: Michael Jordan's one of the greatest actors. We have, one
Speaker 4: of the hottest guys we have on our good business
Speaker 4: to get into right there with Wallace still sad. If
Speaker 4: you watch The Wire, you guys know Michael B.
Speaker 1: Jordan was shot and killed spoiler dude in like about
Speaker 1: twenty five years ago when the Wire was on, a
Speaker 1: lot of people are thinking of turning that on tonight.
Speaker 1: Was Nicki minaj is really hooking up with them? You
Speaker 1: saw that Award Show. She was like, I'm wearing this
Speaker 1: dress made by so and so, and Michael B. Jordan's
Speaker 1: gonna take it off of me tonight. I've not heard that.
Speaker 1: You guys like Nicki Minaja know the story, guys, boone,
Speaker 1: this Nicki Minaje news. I am not intimately involved in
Speaker 1: her work. I'm aware that she exists and puts out product.
Speaker 1: Oh she does put it out Yep, anything else, Kevin,
Speaker 1: that's good for now. All right, all right, coming up,
Speaker 1: coming up next in less than four minutes, don't go anywhere.
Speaker 1: The Today Game, then a news quickie, and then we'll
Speaker 1: get in the weekday update and back into all the
Speaker 1: math stuff. It's all coming away in the benets Kin Show,
Speaker 1: Go ninety seven point one the Eagle. Thank you for
Speaker 1: hanging out with us today. We've got more of the
Speaker 1: Nico's soundbites from Nico Harrison's press conference today his exit
Speaker 1: interview with the media. A lot of stuff in there
Speaker 1: we haven't gotten too yet that is making the news rounds.
Speaker 1: So we will certainly get into all of that. But
Speaker 1: right now it's time for this. It's time to play
Speaker 1: the Today game. It's a game. It's Tonic Today. Let's
Speaker 1: go take it away, you jack wagons. It is time
Speaker 1: to play the Today game for today, April twenty first,
Speaker 1: and we will start with Tony Romo being forty five.
Speaker 1: He is, and it's happening now. Hold on, what's going on?
Speaker 1: Where you've been? Not my computers? Jack, Here we go, ready.
Speaker 2: Ramo Jordi Robo Jordy robo Jo.
Speaker 1: Romo is that rotational leg don't lose this game. I
Speaker 1: think either of them should be.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but no, neither are I did you guys know
Speaker 4: Romo's age?
Speaker 1: I know, did not know forty five.
Speaker 4: I was guessing forty two, and then I just remember
Speaker 4: that time flies, it flies.
Speaker 1: Now when I saw that age pop up, says like, man,
Speaker 1: I guess I thought there was a bigger age gap
Speaker 1: between now. Nine years is a big age gap. But
Speaker 1: I guess I'd always thought it was more than that.
Speaker 1: But yeah, man, he forty five. Now that's crazy. Forty five.
Speaker 1: You think you're getting the Ring of Honor.
Speaker 4: No, Jerry said, Hall of Fame, get you in the
Speaker 4: Ring of Honor.
Speaker 1: Wait, there's guys that are in the Ring of Honor though,
Speaker 1: that aren't in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 4: I know that's his excuse though, to not put guys
Speaker 4: like Jimmy Johnson. And he finally gives in and puts
Speaker 4: him in.
Speaker 1: I think that even though Romo has pretty much every
Speaker 1: Cowboys passing record there is, to have the legacy of
Speaker 1: Super Bowl winning quarterbacks makes it a difficult decision, But
Speaker 1: Jerry loves Romo. I predict Romo does get into the
Speaker 1: Ring of Honor because of that distinction. And I think
Speaker 1: Jerry feels guilty that Romo didn't win anything significant because
Speaker 1: it certainly wasn't because of Romo, it was because of
Speaker 1: the supporting cast. So I think that's on Jerry. So
Speaker 1: I think Jerry will put him in. That makes sense.
Speaker 1: Jerry's probably just start putting everyone in the next ten years, right.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if Steven goes in this summer.
Speaker 1: Of course, Steven's going in.
Speaker 4: We figured it was cowboys fans. He works with Will
Speaker 4: that's worse than the Luca trade man. Stephen, he's here there,
Speaker 4: it is he is.
Speaker 1: That's cool. Robert Smith the sixty six, Good job, Robert,

Speaker 1: update coming up. But this segment right here is brought
Speaker 1: to you by Andrews American Pizza Kitchen in Plano, Texas.
Speaker 1: There's only one location of Andrew's American Pizza Kitchen, but
Speaker 1: it's so good. They won best Pizzeria and all of
Speaker 1: DFW in the Dallas Morning News. That's at Preston and Plano,
Speaker 1: Parkway and Plano. They've mastered five different types of pizza.
Speaker 1: They have an amazing selection of craft beer. It's a
Speaker 1: great place to hang out. There's TV's as far as
Speaker 1: I can see. They got pasta something for everybody. But
Speaker 1: if you're a true foodie, aren't you a little bit
Speaker 1: curious of why Readers of the Dallas Morning News voted
Speaker 1: Andrew's American Pizza Kitchen and Plano the best pizzaia and
Speaker 1: all of DFW. Head out there and find out yourself.
Speaker 1: Be sure to see see us on social media on
Speaker 1: a post and give him some love. Andrew's American Pizza Kitchen.
Speaker 1: But right now after this, give me that moves quickie. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know you want it.
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna start off before I give you any
Speaker 4: details of this story. With our good friends up there
Speaker 4: at Channel seven in Bozeman, Washington, who got footage.
Speaker 1: No, this is the police.
Speaker 4: Chief of the city Bozeman, Washing That which I think
Speaker 4: is the town where Washington State University is, which I
Speaker 4: believe number one. Pick cam Ward of the Titans where
Speaker 4: he was there for a little bit, Mike Leach coach. There,
Speaker 4: here's the police chief explaining what went wrong.
Speaker 11: Two teams of patrol officers were engaged in a bingo
Speaker 11: competition where success in the game.
Speaker 1: Okay, stop, okay.
Speaker 4: Two teams of police officers okay a bingo competition.
Speaker 1: At Bingo Night, or.
Speaker 11: In a bingo competition where success in the game hinged
Speaker 11: on whether they engaged in actions listed on the Bengo card.
Speaker 11: Then they filled in squares of things that they wanted
Speaker 11: to see happen or have happened in order to check
Speaker 11: off that box in the Bengo card. So an example
Speaker 11: of one of those was to do a search warrant
Speaker 11: on a car, which in and of itself that is
Speaker 11: part of their duties. The concern is if then they
Speaker 11: manipulated anything in order to be able to search a car.
Speaker 1: Okay, and win it bingo and when it police bingo.
Speaker 4: And this is not like one or two or three,
Speaker 4: it's thirteen police officers. Man, Okay, so I have the
Speaker 4: bingo card.
Speaker 1: Okay. Oh so they all didn't have different bingo cards.
Speaker 1: There's there's one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think one team has a yeah, okay, midshift
Speaker 4: bingo is what it says to help the day fly by.
Speaker 4: So in the first column, two hat tricks per team
Speaker 4: per night, I'm guessing three arrests.
Speaker 1: That be your hat trick. Okay, recover a stolen vehicle
Speaker 1: one that's good, right, that should be a center square.
Speaker 4: Extinguish a fire before the Bozeman fire department gets the
Speaker 4: Oh that's awesome.
Speaker 1: Can you see him like fighting hard to get it done,
Speaker 1: and fire departments like, what are you doing? Why are
Speaker 1: you trying it so hard to put a fire out?
Speaker 1: We're on our way, okay, But clearly this puts the
Speaker 1: police officers in a position to start a fire in
Speaker 1: order to put it out.
Speaker 4: Yes, one arrest for every member for every team, for
Speaker 4: every day for a week, so you know, these are
Speaker 4: squads of probably six or seven people. I'm guessing if
Speaker 4: there's thirteen total involved, so you know, and then lastly
Speaker 4: apply a chest seal. I don't know what that means.
Speaker 4: A TQQR chest seal. I don't know what that could be.
Speaker 1: What's it? TQQR?
Speaker 4: Yeah, TQQR or over point three to zero blood alcohol
Speaker 4: content DUI, god.
Speaker 1: That's like.
Speaker 4: Almost four times the legal limit. That's insane, A non
Speaker 4: drug related what's so it's hard to see him?
Speaker 1: I'm good. I could sing in here.
Speaker 4: Everyone on the team gets a felony in a week.
Speaker 4: Successful CPR.
Speaker 1: That's a good thing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, arrest three people out of one car. Two on
Speaker 4: team and a vehicle pursuit. So looking for a high
Speaker 4: speed chase. Let's see, uh, successful canine track. I'm assuming
Speaker 4: get the dog out for something.
Speaker 1: I want to say something. Yeah, I'm laughing because this
Speaker 1: reminds me of super Bad. I mean, this is super Troopers,
Speaker 1: maybe super Troopers. Yeah, like the stuff that they were doing.
Speaker 1: I feel I've actually never seen Supertroopers, but I feel
Speaker 1: like this is objectively evil, that this is happening. This,
Speaker 1: This sounds exactly like super Troopers. Here's guys, doing idiot
Speaker 1: stuff to make the day fly by. But your law
Speaker 1: enforcement a three plus vehicle accident and we can get
Speaker 1: a pile up.
Speaker 4: That'd be great. We can get bingo. Here's my favorite
Speaker 4: one of all of them. Have a team member get
Speaker 4: hit on by an arrestee. God, does it specify gender? No? Ok,
Speaker 4: And you wouldn't have to, right. I don't know if
Speaker 4: there's any female policewomen involved here. How come they You
Speaker 4: don't ever hear that one?
Speaker 1: What's that?
Speaker 4: Police women? You're a policeman all the time because fear
Speaker 4: of them police women, police women, the policewoman, police lady.
Speaker 4: The policeman pulled me over, but it was a woman,
Speaker 4: the police woman pulled me over.
Speaker 1: Would you say that, yeah, the lady. I think skin
Speaker 1: nailed it. Police lady. Yeah. I don't think you can
Speaker 1: say that. Hey that or police mama. You're you trying
Speaker 1: to get canceled? No, police, police Mama's legit. I think
Speaker 1: like these are all things we could do. We could
Speaker 1: break out some bingo for work. Yeah, it's a little
Speaker 1: different for us, but our actions don't entail anyone going
Speaker 1: to jail unnecessarily to win a bingo car. That's a
Speaker 1: good point you make, and I hadn't thought that far.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, but what are some things we could
Speaker 4: do Austin Reeves, Well, he already has his list of things.
Speaker 1: He comes up. That's a square, which you did it
Speaker 1: today though, So that's on you. See, I'm influencing you guys.
Speaker 1: By the way, if the Lakers are going to beat
Speaker 1: the Wolves, Austin Reeves don't need to step up, dude,
Speaker 1: know he just need to step up one. No one
Speaker 1: rode along with Luca the other night, Well, nobody go
Speaker 1: into because.
Speaker 4: He is a disgusting fat pig.
Speaker 1: While Anthony Edwards was telling Los Angeles Laker fans that
Speaker 1: he had a bigger D than they had, what was
Speaker 1: the thing he was was doing a Spider Man web
Speaker 1: on Luca. I wasn't sure I saw that still photo,
Speaker 1: but was He held his hand out after hitting a three,
Speaker 1: and it looked like he had like a Charles Haley
Speaker 1: finger that was pointing the wrong direction. There's a there's
Speaker 1: a lot of things I don't understand because currently in
Speaker 1: the NBA, anytime a guy makes a three, he injects
Speaker 1: heroin into his veins. And I'm not sure I understand
Speaker 1: what all that's about. Yeah, it's very strange. I used
Speaker 1: to just like let that, let the hand fly, hold
Speaker 1: us hold it up there. What were your numbers like
Speaker 1: in your best year and my best year. I gonna
Speaker 1: go back into the archives here. It was like a
Speaker 1: twelve six three guy. Yeah, really, I've seen highlights of you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I was like all my points were threes. Yeah.
Speaker 1: It rained not stepping inside the three point line. Yeah.
Speaker 1: See your six boards or six assess six boards? Yep,
Speaker 1: Oh I played defense. Okay, it's unrelated to the question though.
Speaker 4: So what was your defensive rating? Show us your defensive stance.
Speaker 4: What was your individual plus minus? So where do you
Speaker 4: guys stand on this shoot these cops be canceled for yes,
Speaker 4: should be fired.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they lose their job a fun game of bingo.
Speaker 1: It shouldn't be in law enforcement. They shouldn't be in
Speaker 1: law It's a very serious job. And there's a really
Speaker 1: tough history because there's a of of people abusing the badge.
Speaker 1: And I would say that this. I think if you
Speaker 1: had any police officer and you asked them about this
Speaker 1: and they were on camera, they would say they were
Speaker 1: very embarrassed by the actions of this police officer if
Speaker 1: there was a recording device while you asked them. They
Speaker 1: were very embarrassed that this got out. I hear you,
Speaker 1: and I see both of you. But let's not act
Speaker 1: like there's a big line out the door. In Bozeman, Washington,
Speaker 1: one of the coldest cities in America for people to
Speaker 1: get into some odd hours law enforcement. I am people
Speaker 1: are looking for some indoor central heating jobs in Bozeman, Washington.
Speaker 1: I am very curious how many people are on the
Speaker 1: force does this represent, because I have no idea how
Speaker 1: big Bozman is.
Speaker 4: Okay, so there's two sergeants here, and you don't hear
Speaker 4: that word us much anymore either, Like what other job
Speaker 4: is there sergeants outside of military and police? So if
Speaker 4: there's thirteen people, two squads, two sergeants being charged.
Speaker 1: Six a squad, how many four or five squads? Probably
Speaker 1: six squads, I'm guessing. I feel like you're just making numbers.
Speaker 1: We're gonna lay off the whole department. Basically, Yeah, you
Speaker 1: can't do this. Just tell him to quit playing bingo. Gots.
Speaker 1: Just cut off the bingo. You do your job, all right.
Speaker 1: There you have it. There is the news quickie coming
Speaker 1: up next. Though the actual big news segment of the hour, KT.

Speaker 1: for hanging out with us today. We'll get back into
Speaker 1: the Nico Harrison audio and all the discussion going on
Speaker 1: around the Mavericks at the bottom of this hour. But
Speaker 1: right now it's time for this man.
Speaker 7: Now, it's time for Basis Weekday up Day, featuring veteran
Speaker 7: news anchor KT fun.
Speaker 1: Tweet hero of the important stories he's currently tracking from
Speaker 1: around the world. Thank you, Richard.
Speaker 4: All Right, so yesterday it was Easter Sunday and the Pope,
Speaker 4: Pope Francis, he's eighty eight years old, but he's had pneumonia.
Speaker 4: He's been dealing with quite a few things. He did
Speaker 4: go make the rounds. He's pushed around a wheelchair from
Speaker 4: of ten thousand people. He also had to meet with
Speaker 4: Jade Vance yesterday too. See a lot going on. And
Speaker 4: then this morning I woke up to the news that
Speaker 4: Pope Francis is dead. Hello the stroke. He's not doing
Speaker 4: well and hasn't been doing well for a while. So
Speaker 4: it didn't like shock anybody. But I don't think he
Speaker 4: was expected to die this morning or overnight last.
Speaker 1: Night, because he was poping yesterday. He was poping so hard,
Speaker 1: poping or poking, poping, lucket. How old is he eighty eight? Well,
Speaker 1: he was eighty eight. God, that is age, Okay, old age.
Speaker 4: So one of my favorite movies of the year is Conclave,
Speaker 4: which is incredible, and I can't believe he died and
Speaker 4: he was in bad health is when I saw that movies.
Speaker 4: But I'm glad I watched it because now I know
Speaker 4: what happens here. Basically, they have a college of cardinals
Speaker 4: and they're going to take fifteen to twenty days and
Speaker 4: there's gonna be some political lobbying back and forth, discussions here,
Speaker 4: secret whispering here, all in this crazy old church, and
Speaker 4: they're all dressed up in their stuff. And then what
Speaker 4: they need is two thirds majority to you know, get
Speaker 4: your winner. And that's all going to.
Speaker 1: Be happening now, can you gamble on it?
Speaker 4: I would love to gamble on this. Oh my god,
Speaker 4: that's such a good idea. I think there's seventeen Americans
Speaker 4: who have a chance to be the pope and there's
Speaker 4: like fifty one in Italy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, trust me, and ain't on be an American. I've
Speaker 1: been working with price Picks all day on this more. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm going way more on the Italians to get past
Speaker 1: the first round right now. In that movie, John Letgal
Speaker 1: in it. But in that movie, so I'm a spoiler.
Speaker 1: If you hadn't seen the movie, you hadn't seen it.
Speaker 1: H John Candy is in it.
Speaker 4: No with cow In that movie, at the end, they're like, hey,
Speaker 4: they they have their winner and they but then there's
Speaker 4: a discussion because there's a guy who leads it. I
Speaker 4: don't know who who it is, but he, you know,
Speaker 4: he's that they I don't know. He's the guy who
Speaker 4: takes the votes and has to be the messenger. I'll
Speaker 4: just call him the sergeant or the commissioner.
Speaker 1: It's good.
Speaker 4: So they congratulate yourself. The guy who wins the new pope,
Speaker 4: he's he's you know, in his room getting ready. They
Speaker 4: still don't know yet, and one guy comes up to
Speaker 4: the guy who's the messenger and has got to tell
Speaker 4: everyone that he wins. Goes, hey, there was an operation
Speaker 4: or there was a there was a consultation, a doctor's appointment.
Speaker 4: There's a lot going on. I don't know if there's
Speaker 4: an operation or not. Well, it turns out the pope
Speaker 4: who wins in conclave was born.
Speaker 1: With are you having a stroke? Female genitalia? Did you
Speaker 1: try to carefully say this? Did you turn the pope
Speaker 1: death into a movie review? Because I thought you were sick,
Speaker 1: because I thought you were saying like you were describing.
Speaker 1: All Right, the one who doesn't get it has to
Speaker 1: bring their playbook down and meet with that guy Turk.
Speaker 1: Bring your Bible talk to Turk.
Speaker 4: So the Turk learns, even though it's the guy he
Speaker 4: kind of wanted to learns Oh no, can we have
Speaker 4: a trans pope? And that's part of the discussion that's
Speaker 4: going on, because this pope was one of the first,
Speaker 4: maybe the first pope to be widely accepting of the
Speaker 4: gay population.
Speaker 1: The one who's gone.
Speaker 4: He was seen as yes, Pope Francis was seen as
Speaker 4: kind of the wild ass, pope.
Speaker 1: He DJed in a lot of clubs.
Speaker 4: And they think it's gonna turn the other way on
Speaker 4: the next pope, They're probably not going to have one
Speaker 4: that's like cool with the gays.
Speaker 1: I'll say this, and there is a big conservative backlashing.
Speaker 1: I'll say this, Uh, trans Pope definitely sounds like an
Speaker 1: Electric six song. Well, so here's the.
Speaker 4: Thing about that movie. I was surprised that was the
Speaker 4: thing because I thought the entire movie the guy had
Speaker 4: sex with a turtle.
Speaker 1: You gotta watch it tonight. Yeah, and you guys should
Speaker 1: probably tune in. Okay, but you mentioned John Littgow, John
Speaker 1: Littgow or Michael Kine. John Lithgow one hundred percent, not
Speaker 1: even close. You're better than Michael Kaine. Yeah, he's Lord
Speaker 1: Farquaad and Shrek Win or Winner. Yeah, he was also uh,
Speaker 1: you know in garp John Litthgow or Gene Hackman John Litzgal.
Speaker 1: All right, there's a test. I can't believe you answer,
Speaker 1: so you're wrong in both cases. All right, coming up next, Uh,
Speaker 1: be sure to join us as we talk MAVs during
Speaker 1: the final stretch last thirty minutes of the show. We
Speaker 1: talk MAVs with you, right, here on Eagle. All right,
Speaker 1: we got about thirty minutes left to go in the show.
Speaker 1: We're gonna spend it all talking about the MAVs and
Speaker 1: the Lucas situation. A big bombshell article dropped today from
Speaker 1: Tim McMahon on ESPN. You had Tim Kay article, You've
Speaker 1: had Mark Stein, and then you had another press conference.
Speaker 1: This time it was just Nico talking to the media
Speaker 1: here and he answered question for questions for about twenty
Speaker 1: five minutes. A couple of those questions not that good.
Speaker 1: Some of those questions pretty good. I had wished it
Speaker 1: would gone on longer, but it just would. He would
Speaker 1: have been a pinata out there just getting killed if
Speaker 1: it had gone longer. Yeah, and I think, you know,
Speaker 1: from a Nico perspective, the fact that no one asked
Speaker 1: him anything about those articles and he didn't have to
Speaker 1: go on record about it was a win for him.
Speaker 1: I don't understand that. I don't understand, and again, not
Speaker 1: being critical, I guess I am, but I'm not. Look.
Speaker 1: I wasn't there but for the people that went there
Speaker 1: specifically to ask questions. Tim McMahon basically wrote today that
Speaker 1: you know that there was a key moment that fractured
Speaker 1: the relationship between Luca and his team and Dirk. As
Speaker 1: he was pointing it out when Casey Smith was fired
Speaker 1: and he was fired, he was so respected and Tim
Speaker 1: McMahon makes it look like like Casey Smith was fired
Speaker 1: because uh Nico was threatened by him, and he fired
Speaker 1: him while he was over Zoom, while he was visiting
Speaker 1: his mother who was passing away, and he lost Dirk
Speaker 1: at that moment and probably lost Luca at that moment,
Speaker 1: and things were massively fractured, and that did none of
Speaker 1: the There was no questions about that that came up
Speaker 1: at this thing. He uh, you know, if I'm him
Speaker 1: at this point, I'm moving on. I'm not talking about that.
Speaker 1: I mean, I like, there's not gonna be another chance
Speaker 1: for him to be in front of the media except
Speaker 1: maybe on Draft Day. And you right, and so when
Speaker 1: draft day gets here, we're going to be in late June,
Speaker 1: so you know, it's not going to be a story anymore.
Speaker 1: And so again I'm if I'm looking at it from
Speaker 1: his perspective, he's got to be like, great, nobody asked
Speaker 1: me about this. Here's how I feel about all this.
Speaker 1: I feel that with Mark Cuban, it felt like the
Speaker 1: MAVs were a small family owned business. I know they're not.
Speaker 1: They weren't. And the you know, obviously he had his
Speaker 1: own issues, but I loved it. I preferred it, and
Speaker 1: I miss it. But it felt like a family owned business.
Speaker 1: A super passionate MAVs fan is running it. He's one
Speaker 1: of us. He just happens to be a billionaire. Felt
Speaker 1: like a family owned business. This field's colder and more corporate.
Speaker 1: And there was a moment in this press conference where
Speaker 1: Nico said, everything we do is without emotion, and it
Speaker 1: goes through the lens of process. Do you have that audio?
Speaker 1: All right, let's take a listen. Oops, wrong thing. I
Speaker 1: love a good drum, Pill said, locked on maps. You
Speaker 1: said that. Patrick Jumott initially laughed at you when you
Speaker 1: brought him the Luca trade. What did you say to
Speaker 1: convince him to approve it?
Speaker 9: It wasn't really it wasn't really a laugh. It was
Speaker 9: more of a chuckle, but.
Speaker 1: Really it was just I'd set it out of the blue.
Speaker 9: And then as we started talking more, I gave him
Speaker 9: reasoning behind it. And you know, we're a very process
Speaker 9: oriented organization and everything we do is without emotion and
Speaker 9: goes through the lens of process, and so once we
Speaker 9: had those substantive discussions, then he saw the vision.
Speaker 1: All right, if you're going to operate the organization with
Speaker 1: that emotion, it really just comes down to whether you
Speaker 1: win or lose. It's a corporate, cold blooded mindset. It's
Speaker 1: like everything is a spreadsheet. But when it's emotion, there's
Speaker 1: some emotions are really valuable in these situations, even from
Speaker 1: a business and marketing standpoint, like loyalty, things like that,
Speaker 1: like passion, and if you're just gonna, I mean, that's
Speaker 1: the problem. Like if you're a knee co and you're like, man,
Speaker 1: I just want to win a championship in the next
Speaker 1: two years. I don't care about the history of this organization.
Speaker 1: I don't care about the future of this organization. I'm
Speaker 1: going to be judging if I win a championship in
Speaker 1: the next two years, then maybe this trade makes sense
Speaker 1: to go for it like this. But if you care
Speaker 1: about the history of the organization, and you care about
Speaker 1: the future of the organization, and you care about the
Speaker 1: emotions of fans, you don't ever do this. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: would say like the things that he says, and sometimes
Speaker 1: you can say things in a way that you don't
Speaker 1: intend them. Like earlier we played the clip of him
Speaker 1: saying it was awesome when he was getting you know,
Speaker 1: you know, like sometimes you're not articulating things the way
Speaker 1: that you want. He may have been trying to say,
Speaker 1: we don't make emotional decisions, which is different than we
Speaker 1: don't factor in emotion, but regardless, that's how it came off.
Speaker 1: And the way that he's explaining himself to me very
Speaker 1: much reminds me of the way CEOs explain things when
Speaker 1: they run corporations. And usually if you look at the
Speaker 1: lifespan of a CEO in a major corporation, it's usually
Speaker 1: these periods of time and then they go on to
Speaker 1: the next corporation. And so that's what's being communicated right now,
Speaker 1: and how it's being received very much feels like that
Speaker 1: he's doing he's speaking in CEO corporate tone terms, and
Speaker 1: that's definitely the way that it's being perceived.
Speaker 4: I want to get this correct because I don't want
Speaker 4: to misinterpret what he says. But Bobby Carella, who's now
Speaker 4: at d LLS, used to work for the mass forever
Speaker 4: for a long time. His mom worked for the MAVs
Speaker 4: since the eighties. He very much cares about the Mavericks.
Speaker 4: A very good tweet this morning, and it was basically
Speaker 4: the point of this is the guy who has said
Speaker 4: multiple times he's here for three years, but nothing really
Speaker 4: more than that, which maybe that's Nico just saying that's
Speaker 4: how long my contract is. That That was another point
Speaker 4: this is i'm'ta read his sweet now, so I don't
Speaker 4: screw it up here. He has explicitly said he plans
Speaker 4: to finish out his contract and reportedly has no interest
Speaker 4: in continuing beyond them.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Cato wrote that, right, Okay, so I didn't know
Speaker 1: if Kato wrote that that that. I believe that was
Speaker 1: in the DLLs article, that he has no intention of being,
Speaker 1: you know, extending his contract. That's an amazing thing. Again,
Speaker 1: I would have loved if Cato could have been there
Speaker 1: to ask him that way. Record, and again, you don't
Speaker 1: want the steward of your whole spaceship being a guy
Speaker 1: who's out in three years because he doesn't care what
Speaker 1: happens to it after that. Presumab blah. I'm putting you know,
Speaker 1: but I'm just saying, you want, you want checks and balances.
Speaker 1: There should have been one other person they could have
Speaker 1: talked to with experience before they pulled the trigger on
Speaker 1: that trade. Well, I agree with you, Ben, But the
Speaker 1: problem with that is that person generally is the owner
Speaker 1: of the franchise. Yeah, it is the owner of the
Speaker 1: franchise's job to because again, like Nico can say he
Speaker 1: wants to do anything he wants, but if the owner
Speaker 1: doesn't let him, that's the owner doesn't let him. Ask
Speaker 1: Donnie Nelson what it was like working with Mark Cuban. Sure,
Speaker 1: you know, you can't just go do whatever you want.
Speaker 1: And so the whole point is that Patrick Dumont had
Speaker 1: the ability to say no, and he chose to believe
Speaker 1: in Nico and since then has said several times in
Speaker 1: Nico we trust and unless that has changed, which again
Speaker 1: that's the point of Team tim Cato's article, nobody has
Speaker 1: really seen that publicly, No one knows, right, all we
Speaker 1: know is that he has said and Nico we trust.
Speaker 1: And so you would believe that, especially based on the
Speaker 1: way it was presented today. It's the inexperience of the
Speaker 1: owner and it's a short term vision of the GM.
Speaker 1: But all the all Patrick Dumont had to do is
Speaker 1: called Dirk. Yeah, all he had to do is say, hey,
Speaker 1: you know what, you're the most important maverick of all time?
Speaker 1: What do you think about this? Right? And I'm sure
Speaker 1: it's Dirk. Dirk told his sister on that podcast and
Speaker 1: it has translated in German that he wouldn't have done that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, we're not finished yet. In just over three minutes,
Speaker 1: we'll be back to wrap up this conversation and wrap
Speaker 1: up the show. Don't go anywhere. It's the Been and
Speaker 1: Scan Show, ninety seven point one The Eagle. Thank you
Speaker 1: for hanging out with us today. Now, you know, today
Speaker 1: has been a weird day because a big article came
Speaker 1: out and then there was a press conference and it
Speaker 1: was all MAV related and so really all throughout the
Speaker 1: show we've been balancing around from the articles about the
Speaker 1: end of the season and the press conference with Nico,
Speaker 1: Harrison and Kat. You've gone in there and chopped up
Speaker 1: a lot of this audience. So we're gonna end the
Speaker 1: show today with our final thoughts on all this, any
Speaker 1: of the audio that we haven't hit yet that people need.
Speaker 1: I thought this is a very pointed question. Why are
Speaker 1: you betting against Luca?
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's it is more about Adie than than you know,
Speaker 9: I'm not gonna bet against uh uh luc or speak
Speaker 9: negatively towards them. He's not here anymore. But it's the
Speaker 9: belief that I have and the guys that are in
Speaker 9: this locker room.
Speaker 4: I mean, the question was kind of off Mike, so
Speaker 4: I didn't leave it in there. There was one that
Speaker 4: was that one with Noah. He had a series of questions.
Speaker 4: Yea yet Yeah, he had a series of questions and
Speaker 4: then he he continued on off Mike.
Speaker 1: Can I hear that one more time?
Speaker 9: Yeah, Yeah, it's it's is more about Adie than than
Speaker 9: you know. I'm not gonna bet against uh uh Luke
Speaker 9: or speak negatively towards them. He's not here anymore. But
Speaker 9: it's the belief that I have and the guys that
Speaker 9: are in this locker room.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 1: The question was, you know, betting against Luca to win
Speaker 1: a championship. Yeah, And we kind of talked about this earlier.
Speaker 2: Ben.
Speaker 1: It's like, you can't you know, he he can get
Speaker 1: fine if he go. If he went out there and
Speaker 1: then went on this diet tribe about how Luca can
Speaker 1: never win a championship. He's talking about a player that's
Speaker 1: not on his team anymore. Yeah, he can't talk about him.
Speaker 1: But man, I just worry that Nico's stuck in good
Speaker 1: old day syndrome because you know, he came up around
Speaker 1: Kobe and you know the players like this and players
Speaker 1: that he's familiar with. People want their own people, right,
Speaker 1: their own guys, their own guys. You know, it's the
Speaker 1: idea of Nolan. Ryan wanted his own guy, didn't want
Speaker 1: John Davis wanted his own guy. People want their own
Speaker 1: people that they worked with, that they're familiar with, their
Speaker 1: jobs on the line. That's what it just it's hard
Speaker 1: for us to fathom because no one can make sense
Speaker 1: of it. He just wanted a D. He wanted a
Speaker 1: D and he wanted Kyrie. And he goes back with
Speaker 1: those guys and believes he can win with those guys.
Speaker 1: And you know, again, you know I said this earlier.
Speaker 1: You know, we talked about it's up to the ownership group,
Speaker 1: if it's a group, or in the case of Cuban,
Speaker 1: if it's a person, they're the ones that are this
Speaker 1: wards of the franchise, right, and so it's really not
Speaker 1: up to Nico to think about the team. In five years,
Speaker 1: he's in a position where he gets replaced. He's thinking
Speaker 1: about himself and what is best for himself, which is
Speaker 1: what coaches do, which is what it's up to the
Speaker 1: ownership group to think about the long term benefit or
Speaker 1: damage to the team. And they were too new to
Speaker 1: know any better. It might as well be a cricket team.
Speaker 1: They're too new to know, and it just so happened.
Speaker 1: The infrastructure was set up where there were no checks
Speaker 1: and balances. They don't know anything. They're just saying, we
Speaker 1: trust Nico man. We just got to the finals. We
Speaker 1: trust this guy. Wait what? And by the way, that
Speaker 1: recreation that Ben just did is brought to you by
Speaker 1: Rollertown Beer Works. That's the brewery that Ben and I
Speaker 1: are partners in up there in Solona, Texas. And we
Speaker 1: should let you know that we had a very successful
Speaker 1: sumo crawl. You know, tomorrow. Can we talk about the
Speaker 1: sumo crawl? Yeah, we'll talk about it tomorrow, But we
Speaker 1: should let everyone know that there is live, free sumo
Speaker 1: wrestling at roller Town and Solana all day and night
Speaker 1: on Saturday. It'll be from about ten am to about
Speaker 1: seven pm or around that. So come watch actual sumo
Speaker 1: wrestling on Saturday, and then an incredible after party that
Speaker 1: includes sumo karaoke, and then let me just say, on Friday,
Speaker 1: the Bend and Skin show will be at Rollertown Beer Works.
Speaker 1: We're gonna be doing the show there and then afterwards
Speaker 1: we're gonna have the Sumo team draft and it is
Speaker 1: really it's gonna be a scene. So yeah, So this Friday,
Speaker 1: we're doing the show at Rollertown Beer Works and the
Speaker 1: Sumo draft immediately following. So join us out there three
Speaker 1: to six on Friday and stick around for the party afterwards.
Speaker 4: Okay, back to no, it looked like a fun time.
Speaker 1: I think we had some roller Town on the fridge airwork.
Speaker 4: Oh really, I wanted to do this one because Tim
Speaker 4: McMahon's article discussed in great detail the Mavericks medical staff situation.
Speaker 4: There is some names of guys I really had never
Speaker 4: heard of because you know, but I'm sure you knew
Speaker 4: a lot of them. You get the football player of
Speaker 4: the old football guy Belton, I do know him well.
Speaker 4: The other guy Billsborough.
Speaker 1: I do not know that guy. There's a lot of
Speaker 1: I've never met that guy and I was unaware of
Speaker 1: him until very recently. But that's okay, dude, I don't
Speaker 1: travel with the team. I very rarely train, and when
Speaker 1: I do travel with the team, I'm not on the
Speaker 1: team plane. So there's a lot of stuff that I'm
Speaker 1: not privy to. So that yeah, but again that was
Speaker 1: the name I had not even heard.
Speaker 4: Again, if you haven't because you had to go to
Speaker 4: work this morning and you've been working all day, and
Speaker 4: I get but if you want to, you know, tonight,
Speaker 4: pull out your phone or whatever. Read the Tim McMahon article.
Speaker 4: There is a point and that discusses the new medical
Speaker 4: staff over the past couple of years, Luca and having
Speaker 4: his own uh you know, training guys as well. And
Speaker 4: mac Ingle asked a question at the press conference today.
Speaker 4: I thought this was a good question, and I want
Speaker 4: to play.
Speaker 10: Quite a bit of speculation that one of the reasons
Speaker 10: that you made the trade was that you guys just
Speaker 10: couldn't get along. He saw things and his team saw things. Thing,
Speaker 10: He's going to do it this way and you wanted
Speaker 10: him to do it that way?
Speaker 12: True or not?
Speaker 9: No, you know, I worked at Nike for twenty years
Speaker 9: and there's there's like superstars they have they have teams
Speaker 9: around them, and you have to cater to them and
Speaker 9: that's part of the job and they've earned it. So
Speaker 9: I don't worry about getting along with people. I can
Speaker 9: work with anybody.
Speaker 1: By the way, I thought Mac was good with his question.
Speaker 1: Always good Max's straw too, and Mac made Nico laugh
Speaker 1: when he said, are you having fun to Yeah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was interesting. Got me. Look, it's obvious Luca is
Speaker 1: a mega star. He had his own training team, very
Speaker 1: much like other like Tom Brady, Anthony Davis does, right,
Speaker 1: Kyrie Rye. And you know, he's basically immediately starts talking
Speaker 1: about dealing with the team, not getting along with the player. Yeah,
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, I'm used to. You know, superstars have
Speaker 1: their own team. You got to work with those teams.
Speaker 1: You got to cater to them. And he knows that.
Speaker 1: And by the way, he's been a part of that right,
Speaker 1: like that includes Nike. Yeah, you know, so he understands
Speaker 1: that that landscape. Okay, now this is what's interesting to me.
Speaker 4: I don't know anything about I'm just reading this from
Speaker 4: Typical Man's article today. According to more than ten team sources,
Speaker 4: there was a situation where Billsboro and Belton got into
Speaker 4: a heated confrontation. Okay, that began in the trainer's room
Speaker 4: at the practice facility, and then continued.
Speaker 1: Into the light room. Guy, I'm just imagining it in
Speaker 1: my head. It sounds awesome.
Speaker 4: Harrison did not reply to a question about the incident
Speaker 4: or several others regarding the Health and Performance group.
Speaker 1: By the way, in Cato's article, he said that there
Speaker 1: was footage of that and that human resources had to
Speaker 1: get involved. Wow. Oh yeah, like security camera footage. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Oh my god. I apparently those two guys shared an
Speaker 1: office space or something, and so those guys were on
Speaker 1: opposite teams health teams. They're both for the Mavericks, and
Speaker 1: they're just button heads. They don't agree, and they're currently
Speaker 1: both there.
Speaker 4: Yes, oh okay, now this is a confusing part of
Speaker 4: the article. On November twenty ninth, the day before the
Speaker 4: fifth and final game, he set out this is when
Speaker 4: Luca had the wrist injury. That was really a getting
Speaker 4: shape type thing. A television in the media room at
Speaker 4: the mass practice facility was tuned into a close circuit
Speaker 4: feed of Daunchet scrimmaging with low minute players and staffers
Speaker 4: launching long jumpers on almost every offensive possession. When a
Speaker 4: team employee noticed the feed, they changed the channel, quickly
Speaker 4: saying they were unsure how it became available. The feed
Speaker 4: has not been shown in the media room since a
Speaker 4: lot of people were asking questions about that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't understand.
Speaker 4: We're going, what's What's the point is the idea that
Speaker 4: they were why is it Matt like they were watching
Speaker 4: him practice.
Speaker 1: To do that. My takeaway from that is the way
Speaker 1: that Tim portrayed that is that it was in a
Speaker 1: particularly good look that Lucas just out there just chunking
Speaker 1: up shots, playing half assed. That's that's my perception of
Speaker 1: how he wrote that, and so it's like, this is
Speaker 1: not good for media to watch. I will change the channel. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's my perception of what he wrote that rehab. Seriously,
Speaker 1: Tim would have to speak on that. That's how I
Speaker 1: read it, but I could be way off basic that's
Speaker 1: been That's been one sticking point of this article. I've
Speaker 1: seen a lot of people go, oh, what is this about?
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think within the greater context too, where
Speaker 1: Tim was painting a picture that the team wanted him
Speaker 1: to rehab one way and his side wanted him to
Speaker 1: rehab another way. Because the way that the articles written
Speaker 1: narrative wise, they wanted him on that trip. They refused
Speaker 1: to be on that trip, and he got traded while
Speaker 1: they were on that trip. But yeah, yeah, you see
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Yeah, it's all part of a greater narrative. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've choose to believe it.
Speaker 4: Sure, sure, sure, sure, Well I think that's it for
Speaker 4: to day. I'm sure there'll be more tomorrow because there's
Speaker 4: always new stuff.
Speaker 1: There is always new stuff, And I actually can't wait
Speaker 1: to talk about Sumo tomorrow. Yes, that was so much fun.
Speaker 1: All right, thank you for hanging out with us today.
Speaker 1: We will be back tomorrow. We'll talk a little Sumo,
Speaker 1: we'll talk a lot more until then, stick around more
Speaker 1: music right here on ninety seven point one The Eagle
