WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:04.040 Welcome Anthony Rodriguez to the show Live from New Orleans. 2 00:00:04.480 --> 00:00:07.000 First of all, to the person who said a modern 3 00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:10.560 version of Hogan's Heroes or McHale's Navy could be made. 4 00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:11.800 To be pretty funny. 5 00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:14.320 Did you guys ever wonder what that pitch meeting was 6 00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:17.440 like for Hogan's Heroes? It was like, hear me out 7 00:00:17.519 --> 00:00:22.399 a comedy set in a concentration camp. And then I 8 00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:24.839 was watching the movie I cannot remember what the name 9 00:00:24.879 --> 00:00:27.480 of the movie is with Miles Teller about the making 10 00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:29.000 of The Godfather, right. 11 00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:31.920 It was so good. It was a really good short series. 12 00:00:32.399 --> 00:00:36.840 But in that series, Miles Teller plays Robert Evans, who 13 00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:39.880 was the producer of Hogan's Heroes, and they wanted to 14 00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:41.159 pitch something else. 15 00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:43.439 And the studio hated it. So Miles Teller, just. 16 00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:45.920 His character Bob Evans, was like, let me just tell you, 17 00:00:46.520 --> 00:00:48.719 I got this other idea, and they were like, love it. 18 00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:52.679 And the sixties were wild because of that. 19 00:00:53.479 --> 00:00:58.600 Amelia Perez is a very well nominated movie. I still 20 00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:02.240 haven't watched the rest of it, but it was sort 21 00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:05.280 of controversial when they nominated a trans woman in the 22 00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:11.040 Supporting actress category. And now we don't have to worry 23 00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:15.359 about a person born as a boy winning a female 24 00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:21.519 category because unfortunately text messages have appeared, not text messages, tweets, 25 00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:25.760 and there might have been some anti Islam stuff and 26 00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:31.640 maybe some racist type stuff in the actress's Twitter account. 27 00:01:32.359 --> 00:01:34.359 And now she is expected to fly. 28 00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:37.959 She is no longer expected to fly from her home 29 00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.680 in Spain, but she has basically realized she's not going 30 00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:44.879 to win. And something you guys have to realize about 31 00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:52.560 this Oscar stuff is Oscar nominations, Oscar campaigns. Oh, it's 32 00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:55.319 the offer, Thank you, Miles Teller. The offer such a 33 00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:59.920 good show. These Oscar campaigns that are backed by the studios. 34 00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:03.200 There's a lot of money involved, and there's a lot 35 00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:07.760 of backbiting and backstabbing as people try to torpedo the 36 00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:09.319 nominations of other people. 37 00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:12.080 And I feel like, you know, but if. 38 00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:14.879 You've got racist stuff, like my Twitter feed has some 39 00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:18.960 stuff that is out of context, looks ridiculous. Like one 40 00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:20.719 of my tweets from way back in the day was 41 00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:25.000 one of my callers had just called me a member 42 00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:27.120 of the KKK first something I don't even know what, 43 00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.039 and I just said, can I wear my white sheet? 44 00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:30.840 After Labor Day. 45 00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:34.639 Obviously funny joke, right, but if people go back and 46 00:02:34.719 --> 00:02:36.319 see that and think that makes me a racist, I 47 00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:39.319 would burst out laughing at this point. But if you 48 00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:41.599 do have actual racist stuff, you probably need to scrub 49 00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:45.479 it out before this. But now she will not, Mandy, 50 00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:48.080 I wouldn't call Hogan's hero as a concentration camp. It 51 00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:52.879 was a pow camp. My bad, my bad, Hey, hear 52 00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:58.159 me out. Comedy based in a pow camp still sounds ridiculous, 53 00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:07.199 completely ridiculous. Laverne and Shirley, Yes, yes, Laverne and Shirley. 54 00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:08.919 And where did you get to do it? 55 00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:09.120 All? 56 00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:09.479 Right? 57 00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:09.960 Now? 58 00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:14.159 Our man covering the super Bowl live from New Orleans, one, 59 00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:16.759 mister Anthony Rodriguez joining us now? 60 00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:20.919 So a rod are you already tired? 61 00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:22.599 Exhausted? 62 00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:25.479 Is probably a better explanation, so like times a thousand, 63 00:03:25.599 --> 00:03:27.919 but yes, long answer, yes, So tell me. 64 00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:32.520 Your day right now? What has happened? Uh since you 65 00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:34.599 got there? Like walk me you got off the plane 66 00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:36.039 and tell me what you've done since then? 67 00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:40.520 Well I am I'm still reeling with a big giant grin, 68 00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:43.639 but reeling in exhaustion nonetheless, from opening a night last night, 69 00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:47.039 it was just just insane. First of all, this is 70 00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:50.000 my first media week. I've covered the NBA Finals, I've 71 00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:53.080 covered the Stanley Cup Final, covered March Madness. Right from 72 00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.240 the jump, I immediately knew this is a totally different 73 00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:57.280 ballgame intended because this is football. 74 00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:02.639 The Caesar Super Known Opening was just a mad house. 75 00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:06.960 I mean I've heard tales obviously, people not just countrywide, 76 00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:10.879 but across the entire globe come to this event. I 77 00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:15.800 mean hundreds of people at each podium for these star players. 78 00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:19.160 In the opening night, I mean to give you an. 79 00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:23.399 Example, I spent about an hour, give or take, getting 80 00:04:23.439 --> 00:04:27.720 one question into Eagle's superstar running back Saquon Barkley. I 81 00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:30.439 think I probably yelled Saquon's name at least one. 82 00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:32.279 Hundred times trying to get his attention. 83 00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:35.079 And you know, it didn't help that they didn't have 84 00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:37.040 the greatest set up in the world at each podium 85 00:04:37.079 --> 00:04:40.240 with the Molt box for audio right there at the front, 86 00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:41.959 with all the cameras in the front, So the reporters 87 00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:43.879 had to like try to peek their heads through all 88 00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:45.759 the tripods, including my own, to try to get in 89 00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:48.120 there and get a question. But opening night was just 90 00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:51.120 a whirlwind. I did get a chance to ask the 91 00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:53.759 question into Pat Mahomes. I pissed off all the Swifties 92 00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:56.879 yesterday with my question that Travis Kelsey your questions. 93 00:04:57.360 --> 00:04:58.759 I thought he knocked it out of the bark. 94 00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:02.160 I thought, he well, here's the thing Ross asked me 95 00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:05.279 earlier in terms of how NFL players typically are kind 96 00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:07.079 of top of the list of getting getting coach speak 97 00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:11.120 and players. And then when I asked Travis Kelsey, you know, hey, 98 00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:14.199 give me your pitch for NFL fans that are non Swifties, 99 00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:17.079 I was expecting the full can you know response that 100 00:05:17.079 --> 00:05:19.160 you would hear from a boyfriend of a Taylor swift 101 00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:21.360 And instead of getting that canned response that I had 102 00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:23.279 that I was anticipating and going to be a good 103 00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:26.800 social bit, he just hits me with, who's not a Swiftie? 104 00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:29.199 And I mean I was a techno. 105 00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:32.800 It was a perfect boyfriend response, it really was. It 106 00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:35.439 was so good and he looked at you like you 107 00:05:35.480 --> 00:05:37.040 were an idiot, which made it even better. 108 00:05:37.399 --> 00:05:37.839 I love it. 109 00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:40.079 Yeah, no bringing on. I just want a little bit more. 110 00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:41.680 But you know that's perfect. I'll take it. 111 00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:41.879 Well. 112 00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:43.360 Tuesday night is the big media day. 113 00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:45.240 That's what a Rod's talking about right now, and that's 114 00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:47.639 the media kickoff, and now what have you been up 115 00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:50.399 to today though? Because are you going to be able 116 00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:51.759 to make it to any of the parties that are 117 00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:53.399 happening because there are parties every night. 118 00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:56.519 Yeah, so yeah, so Monday night last night was the 119 00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:59.160 big was really the only big thing at Caesar Superdome 120 00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:00.920 when the game is actually going to be played, which 121 00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:02.920 is obviously the opening night with all the podiums. Like 122 00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:05.560 I mentioned, Uh, the rest of the week kind of 123 00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:07.000 varies from different spots. 124 00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:09.399 So most of today I have been here at. 125 00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:11.199 The Convention Center, which is about five or ten minutes 126 00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:14.240 away from Caesar Superdome.

I 208 00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:23.200 barely need. 209 00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:25.279 I'm not even doing any of the food, seeing that 210 00:09:25.320 --> 00:09:28.240 I did November, probably not gonna you know, enjoy a 211 00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:28.919 beverage or two. 212 00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:30.720 I don't know. I mean, I'm down to hit the 213 00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:31.120 party scene. 214 00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:32.440 Like I said, we'll see, we'll see what the media 215 00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:34.559 party kind of stems into for the rest of the 216 00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:36.200 week with who I chat with and what they're up to. 217 00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:38.399 But I'm all business. I mean, you see in the 218 00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:39.519 work I'm putting out on social media. 219 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:41.480 I'm working, I know, and you're doing a great job. 220 00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:44.799 You need to follow kaa social media on Twitter, on Facebook, 221 00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:47.480 on TikTok, if you've given your soul to the Chinese government, 222 00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:49.639 because A Rod's got all kinds of stuff that he 223 00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:51.919 is putting out up there. So a Rod, let me 224 00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:56.000 ask you this, like, well, there's no storylines right now 225 00:09:56.159 --> 00:09:59.919 out of the super Bowl. There's no like bulletin board materials. 226 00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:03.600 There's no you know, anybody's talking out of their you know, 227 00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:06.200 out of their behind. Are there any stories in New 228 00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:10.399 Orleans that we're not hearing about. 229 00:10:10.279 --> 00:10:11.720 In terms of what you're not hearing about, Well, I 230 00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:15.039 will say this, the only event, like I mentioned that 231 00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:17.679 was a Caesar Superdome though that at least that I'm 232 00:10:17.720 --> 00:10:19.679 aware of and I'm pretty aware of it is the 233 00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:21.759 is the last night was the opening night. But I 234 00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:23.639 got to tell you mentioned the RNC and the DNC. 235 00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:26.600 I've been chatting with other folks about how that uh, 236 00:10:27.039 --> 00:10:29.480 that experience around the Superdome and how long it took 237 00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:30.039 me to walk out. 238 00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:31.840 That reminds me of the security perimeter. 239 00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:34.600 Not as vast really so reminded me of the security 240 00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:36.879 perimeter that we saw in Milwaukee and in Chicago. 241 00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:38.759 I mean, they they are not messing around. 242 00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:43.320 It's very, very evident that New Orleans is now tied 243 00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:46.320 with Miami for hosting the most of these bad boys 244 00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:50.000 with eleven and they clearly are experienced in doing so. 245 00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:51.519 So I don't know about in terms of the storylines 246 00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:54.399 we're not hearing because that that's that's really notable. And 247 00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:56.200 and then like you said, with the with the game, 248 00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:58.480 I think you know, on the field, the one thing 249 00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:01.399 I know, like Travis Kelsey said, yes to day, someone 250 00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:02.960 asked him what would be the question you would ask 251 00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:04.759 in the media, and he said, why are you guys 252 00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:07.879 leaning in so much to this referee stuff that we're 253 00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:12.440 getting the calls and whatnot? So I think, well, it 254 00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:15.320 is and it isn't because there's some numbers out there 255 00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:17.159 that suggests they maybe don't get as many calls you think, 256 00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:19.240 but they kind of get him into bigger moments, which 257 00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:19.879 is I think. 258 00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:22.080 What makes people more talk about that more. 259 00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:26.440 But honestly, I'll say this, Andy Reid, head coach of 260 00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:29.799 the of the Chiefs, last night was talking about how 261 00:11:29.919 --> 00:11:33.200 you know, this team really hasn't leaned in to the 262 00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:35.879 talk of three P talked it lean into the talk 263 00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:39.120 of a dynasty. Even Pat Mahomes has said that that 264 00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:41.639 Andy Reid doesn't even say three P unless he's talking 265 00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:43.919 about it in reference to a question from a reporter 266 00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:46.360 and any rate said that they respect the Eagles. So 267 00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:51.360 I think there's a lot of probably stretched enforced storylines 268 00:11:51.360 --> 00:11:53.480 when it comes to making the Chiefs the bad guy. 269 00:11:53.559 --> 00:11:56.279 And I know in Bronco's country, we've already discussed how 270 00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:59.240 I've already gotten a bunch of flak from my appreciation 271 00:11:59.320 --> 00:12:01.279 of the greatness that is Pat Mahomes and the Chiefs. 272 00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:04.080 But but honestly, they're they're leaning in the right way. 273 00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:07.799 They are not taking any chances of giving the Eagles 274 00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:09.200 bolts and bore material and anything. 275 00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:10.080 They said last night. 276 00:12:10.279 --> 00:12:12.320 I will say this though, Mandy, in terms of storyline, 277 00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:14.360 I know we hear in the last couple minutes storylines 278 00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:16.960 for the for the Denver Broncos talk about good bolts 279 00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:19.120 and barred material. Because I made it a point to 280 00:12:19.320 --> 00:12:21.879 ask Andy Reid to ask Pat Mahomes, to ask uh 281 00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:25.639 Star defensive tackle Chris Jones, to ask Isaiah pa Checko 282 00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:27.639 running back for the Chiefs, all about the Broncos and 283 00:12:27.639 --> 00:12:30.360 all about Pat Mahomes, and you want to talk about 284 00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:36.000 the opposite of that stock answer. They all had glowing 285 00:12:36.039 --> 00:12:39.320 remarks about bow Knicks and what the what the Broncos 286 00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:41.120 were able to do. They all said the Broncos were 287 00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:43.840 an incredibly talented team essentially with the bright future. Steve 288 00:12:43.879 --> 00:12:46.360 speG No, the DC of the Chiefs, couldn't even really 289 00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:48.919 hold back his appreciation, said that how much bow Nicks 290 00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:51.919 impressed him, especially from matchup one to matchup two. So 291 00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:56.720 if there's anything to glean from the current team that's 292 00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:58.759 in this big game, that's you know, could potentially win 293 00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:00.639 their third in a row. If that they think the 294 00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:02.639 Broncos have what it takes is to maybe be here. 295 00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:04.919 I mean Ian rappaport Our NFL Network inside or even 296 00:13:04.960 --> 00:13:06.559 said the same thing to me, said he doesn't think 297 00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:09.120 they're that far off. I mean, you add some playmakers 298 00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:10.799 to this squad, so I think there's a there's a 299 00:13:10.799 --> 00:13:13.080 good chance the next couple of years that we're covering 300 00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:15.039 this bad boy and our Denver Broncos are in that thing. 301 00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:17.080 So talk about Bolts and bor Matlia for the Broncos 302 00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:17.879 in a positive way. 303 00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:18.960 Well, I loved your. 304 00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:21.799 Little interview with Sama JP Ryd where he said, I'm 305 00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:24.519 so sorry we couldn't get a championship for Broncos fans. 306 00:13:24.879 --> 00:13:27.200 But now, of course he's playing for the Kansas City Chiefs, 307 00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:29.919 so he has a chance to get a ring right now. 308 00:13:30.120 --> 00:13:32.480 You know what's interesting, by the way, a Rod, when 309 00:13:32.519 --> 00:13:33.879 you're reporting on the super. 310 00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:35.159 Bowl, you can call it the super Bowl. 311 00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:38.360 We just can't call it the super Bowl when we're 312 00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:39.840 not reporting on the super Bowl. 313 00:13:40.039 --> 00:13:42.320 When you're reporting it's newsworthy. 314 00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:44.039 Yeah yeah, oh, you guys wouldn't believe. 315 00:13:44.039 --> 00:13:45.559 And I don't want to go into it all, but 316 00:13:45.639 --> 00:13:49.080 there's you cannot use the word super Bowl in a commercial, 317 00:13:49.159 --> 00:13:51.399 you can't use them in a promo.
