1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: I'll start Toyota Presents off the bench with Jacob Hester

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:05,240
and Matt Flynn.

3
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:06,559
Speaker 2: Say Hester and Hester.

4
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:11,880
Speaker 1: Five from carrying each other to and Natty to carrying

5
00:00:11,919 --> 00:00:12,400
each other.

6
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 3: On the air, there's Brock Control.

7
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:21,559
Speaker 1: Live from the Mercedes Benz of Baton Rouge Studio. It's

8
00:00:21,559 --> 00:00:42,079
off the bench, all.

9
00:00:42,039 --> 00:00:45,399
Speaker 2: Right, welcome back in our number three, O, TV one,

10
00:00:45,399 --> 00:00:52,079
O four five, ESPN, Baton Rouge. Let's get to a

11
00:00:52,079 --> 00:00:56,119
little big deal. No big deal, no big deal, big deal,

12
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:01,159
no big deal, big deal, no big deal, no big deal,

13
00:01:01,719 --> 00:01:07,599
no big deal, A big deal, big deal, are no

14
00:01:07,719 --> 00:01:11,599
big deal. Cleveland Brown's quarterback Shadier Sanders injured his oblique

15
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:16,719
throwing the football on Wednesday morning and is not likely

16
00:01:16,799 --> 00:01:20,519
to play this Saturday in the second preseason game for

17
00:01:20,799 --> 00:01:21,599
the Cleveland Brown.

18
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,239
Speaker 4: I don't think it's that big of a deal because

19
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,599
it's a preseason game and they haven't really named a

20
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,359
starting quarterback yet, Like they didn't say Shadoor is our

21
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:30,239
starting quarterback.

22
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:31,799
Speaker 5: So I don't think it's that big of a deal.

23
00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:32,439
Speaker 3: All right.

24
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 6: Look, normally it would not be a big deal for

25
00:01:36,079 --> 00:01:38,560
the guy that's listed fourth on the depth charge in

26
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,480
your quarterback battle. But the guy that looked very, very

27
00:01:42,519 --> 00:01:47,159
good and probably was gaining momentum towards at least being

28
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,840
the second string guy who would eventually play some games

29
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,079
this year. There's not going to be one starting quarterback

30
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,280
for the Cleveland Browns in twenty twenty five, so.

31
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 3: It is a big setback.

32
00:01:57,359 --> 00:02:00,519
Speaker 6: But what's crazy is of all the quarters and the

33
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,599
young guns, the only quarterback that has stayed healthy for

34
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,120
the Cleveland Browns is the old man.

35
00:02:07,159 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 3: Mister Joe Flacco, the guy draft class, the iron.

36
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 6: Man, the only one that stayed healthy and hasn't missed time,

37
00:02:15,759 --> 00:02:19,159
hasn't been missed, practiced, and will not have missed the game.

38
00:02:19,479 --> 00:02:21,159
Speaker 5: This is a big deal.

39
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 1: You know.

40
00:02:21,719 --> 00:02:24,319
Speaker 7: We talked about it on Monday when you and I

41
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,159
were discussing his performance over the weekend, Like, yeah, is

42
00:02:27,199 --> 00:02:29,319
he going to be named a starting quarterback from week

43
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:30,120
one to preseason?

44
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,199
Speaker 5: No, but he has an opportunity to make a.

45
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 7: Move because Dylan Gabriel is down with an injury, Kenny

46
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:36,199
Pikett's down with an injury.

47
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 3: It'd make him.

48
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 7: So it's a big deal for Shador Now he's taking

49
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,080
a step back again, and it's a big deal for

50
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,520
Cleveland because you have five quarterbacks on your team.

51
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,639
Speaker 5: You got to cut that down and pick the best guys.

52
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,039
Speaker 7: Now you're just gonna have to kind of decide who's

53
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,400
available for that opening day roster. Like that's a big

54
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,000
deal for Cleveland as well, because you can't evaluate any

55
00:02:55,039 --> 00:02:55,599
of these guys.

56
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 6: I would say that based on even if he doesn't

57
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,120
play another game, Shudre is guaranteed to make this team

58
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,439
as a fifth rounder. That's crazy to say, you know why,

59
00:03:04,479 --> 00:03:08,639
because the noise that comes with not keeping him after

60
00:03:08,719 --> 00:03:12,759
playing well is is going to be deafening. And I

61
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,639
know that that organization say like, oh, we we don't care.

62
00:03:15,719 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 3: We blocked that out. But like it's a big deal.

63
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,479
Speaker 2: So Flacco, Gabriel Sanders, pickets an odd man out.

64
00:03:25,159 --> 00:03:33,479
Speaker 6: Four probably four is absolutely unhurt. I think, yeah, when

65
00:03:33,479 --> 00:03:36,000
they drafted quarterback, I think pickets the odd man out.

66
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,479
Speaker 3: Now he might be. He might be their.

67
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,759
Speaker 6: Best option to be a seventeen game starter if they

68
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:42,240
wanted it.

69
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,319
Speaker 3: But to what end, I guess is what they would do.

70
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,240
So I don't know.

71
00:03:49,879 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 6: Earlier I was thinking Flacco would be the odd man out.

72
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,240
But he's the one one saying healthy right now and

73
00:03:55,319 --> 00:04:00,599
getting the most reps because nobody else is practicing. It'll

74
00:04:00,599 --> 00:04:02,360
be interesting to see, but I think we can all

75
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,840
assume there's gonna be at least three startered starting quarterbacks.

76
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:12,039
Speaker 2: Get that Jersey ready. There's gonna be names attitude.

77
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,719
Speaker 6: Not to say that Dylan Gabriel or should or Sanders

78
00:04:15,919 --> 00:04:17,959
won't be the long term option. I'm just saying for

79
00:04:18,079 --> 00:04:22,279
this specific year because should Or showed. I mean I

80
00:04:22,399 --> 00:04:24,800
was impressed watching and played just the mechanics of all

81
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:29,399
a great comfortability, the reads that he made. It was impressive.

82
00:04:29,399 --> 00:04:33,279
It was impressive to watch. Okay, all right, big deal,

83
00:04:33,319 --> 00:04:37,519
No big deal. I'm gonna look at Taylor right in

84
00:04:37,519 --> 00:04:40,519
his face right now. I say this one. The Dallas

85
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:50,040
Cowboys contracts and a lot of negative albeit press, it

86
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,879
is press, and I think we've discovered that Jerry Jones

87
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,879
is the modern day PT Barnum as far as uh media,

88
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,000
as far as marketing goes and get an eye by

89
00:05:00,319 --> 00:05:05,439
on his organization. He recently said that he loves the attention.

90
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,519
He would rather this basically interpreting the words that he said,

91
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,360
he would rather the attention on the Cowboys then make

92
00:05:12,399 --> 00:05:16,120
a smart business decision for the team. So of course

93
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,639
they're famously having this argument contract negotiations with Micah Parsons,

94
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,279
one of the best players, if not the best defensive

95
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,879
player in the entire National Football League, which means the

96
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:30,720
entire world, and they will not pay him. They are threatening.

97
00:05:30,759 --> 00:05:33,519
It seems like both sides have dug their feet in.

98
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,120
They are anchored into their position. Jerry Jones and his

99
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,519
side is saying that they had a deal verbally done

100
00:05:41,519 --> 00:05:43,600
in the spring, and he's welcome to take that. But

101
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,000
it takes two sides like Parsons in them. They disagree,

102
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,399
they want a deal done, they want to renegotiate.

103
00:05:49,639 --> 00:05:50,639
Speaker 3: Both size are dug in.

104
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 6: But the biggest travesty that continues to be part of

105
00:05:54,879 --> 00:05:58,720
the collecting collective bargaining agreement is the franchise tag, and

106
00:05:58,759 --> 00:06:01,319
the Cowboys do hold more cards because they can just

107
00:06:01,399 --> 00:06:04,000
franchise him and it's not just a bluff. They've done

108
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,120
it with Dak Prescott, and they were about to do

109
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,199
it for a second year with Dak Prescott and a

110
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,519
contract got signed like the morning of Game one, which

111
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,759
is insanity to me. So he's they're waiting and they

112
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,920
always pay more. Are they going to pay more this time?

113
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,279
It seems like this is not a bluff. They will

114
00:06:21,319 --> 00:06:24,160
actually sit there in franchise tagging big no big deal.

115
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,959
Speaker 7: Unfortunately, it's no big deal because I'm not surprised.

116
00:06:28,079 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 5: I mean, this is what Jerry does.

117
00:06:29,879 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 7: Jerry has turned the Dallas Cowboys into a soap opera.

118
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,480
He doesn't really care about what they do on the field.

119
00:06:35,519 --> 00:06:38,000
And then to your point, they can always just franchise

120
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,319
tag him. So for a guy that doesn't care about

121
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,439
on field success and knows that he has the franchise

122
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,360
tag in his back pocket, Jerry ain't moving. Like Jerry's

123
00:06:46,399 --> 00:06:50,079
whole point is just idiotic. Cause he talks about this

124
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,120
agreement they had in the spring. So the reports are

125
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,600
that him and Micah Parson's gonna have this quote unquote

126
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,560
a handshake agreement him without the agent, right, him and

127
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,480
Mike apart since one on one talked about it. Mike

128
00:07:01,639 --> 00:07:03,279
was like, yeah, sure, that sounds good. I just kind

129
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,199
of want to get back to it. He ran it

130
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,639
back to his agent and was like, hey, here's the deal,

131
00:07:07,959 --> 00:07:10,279
and his agent goes, no, no, no, no, I can get

132
00:07:10,319 --> 00:07:13,399
you a lot more money. And now Jerry's like, well,

133
00:07:13,399 --> 00:07:15,079
why don't we have to have the agent involved. I'm like,

134
00:07:15,079 --> 00:07:17,000
you're pissed off because his agent's involved.

135
00:07:17,399 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 5: Everybody an agent in every single agreement has one. It's

136
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,920
a flawed way of thinking for a very flawed GM.

137
00:07:24,959 --> 00:07:26,199
I'm not surprised.

138
00:07:27,759 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 2: That's no big deal because it's the Cowboys have been

139
00:07:29,759 --> 00:07:33,519
relevant last thirty years.

140
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,519
Speaker 6: So I think it's a huge deal because it highlights

141
00:07:38,839 --> 00:07:42,920
what the NFLPA should have negotiated out of the CBA

142
00:07:43,079 --> 00:07:45,680
a long time ago, which is the franchise tag.

143
00:07:47,439 --> 00:07:50,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean yeah, for sure, it's benefited like very few.

144
00:07:50,399 --> 00:07:53,000
There's some there's some running backs that maybe not would

145
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,639
have gotten the payday they got. But for the most part.

146
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 3: Yes, when is it? When has it ever been a

147
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:58,360
positive thing?

148
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 2: There was a couple of years I think it was

149
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,759
Sprolls that we we franchised and he made like he

150
00:08:03,879 --> 00:08:06,600
made some incredible money for the running back because running

151
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,720
backs just you just never know what you're going to get,

152
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,759
so any value, I think you get a running back,

153
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:11,959
but it's really the only position.

154
00:08:11,959 --> 00:08:14,279
Speaker 6: It's great for like one, but nobody wants to sign

155
00:08:14,279 --> 00:08:18,439
a side a franchise tag, and it's the ultimate negotiation tool,

156
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,920
power move that the organization has over the player because

157
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,160
they're like, oh, you don't want to sign it, you're

158
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,759
under contract, blah blah blah. I can just franchise you

159
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,319
and lock you up. And then players like, well, no,

160
00:08:30,439 --> 00:08:33,519
I can't get injured because I'm on one I'm on

161
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:34,200
this one year deal.

162
00:08:34,279 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 3: Yeah.

163
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,879
Speaker 6: Sure, I'm making decent money for really good money for

164
00:08:36,919 --> 00:08:39,000
this one year. I got no security. I've like, I

165
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,200
don't have any long term commitment from the because when

166
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,919
in a world where the commitment is so one sided

167
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,600
between the organization and the player. Yeah, like, oh, players

168
00:08:49,639 --> 00:08:52,600
got to play those contract. Well okay, well, organization, you

169
00:08:52,639 --> 00:08:54,440
got am under five year contract. You can't cut them.

170
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,559
I give him the same breath. It's like, it's just

171
00:08:57,279 --> 00:09:01,399
I think the franchise tag is awful, and I.

172
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,159
Speaker 2: Think being able to cut somebody when you have a

173
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:04,679
contract and owing them nothing is.

174
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 3: Awful because it's such a it's such a stupid argument.

175
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 6: It's such a stupid argument the Bengals are making with

176
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,080
their defensive end and the Cowboys are making. He's under contract,

177
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,120
he's got to play it out like he's an employee

178
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,919
right now. He has to play it. It's so one sided.

179
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,960
Don't love it. And then the franchise tag makes it

180
00:09:24,039 --> 00:09:25,200
even worse.

181
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 4: All Right, Alandra, I don't have a take on this,

182
00:09:31,159 --> 00:09:33,440
but I do have a big yeah.

183
00:09:33,519 --> 00:09:35,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean look, I fell asleep the

184
00:09:35,279 --> 00:09:37,879
Cowboys a long time ago. Like, it's very interesting in

185
00:09:37,919 --> 00:09:40,679
the fact that the franchise tag deal situation, but the

186
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,000
Cowboys portion of it, and that.

187
00:09:42,039 --> 00:09:43,919
Speaker 3: Was really the most part. I was like, more interesting.

188
00:09:44,039 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, hopefully it brings it to light that it becomes

189
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:51,399
more of a conversation that this needs to be negotiated out.

190
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 4: Sorry, I'm distracted. Landon just texted me. He said he's

191
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,159
bringing Benny up to us. Do we know like what

192
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,000
he's talking about? Because there's a Benny and he's Brazil.

193
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 5: Yeah.

194
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:08,279
Speaker 3: I wasn't sure.

195
00:10:08,279 --> 00:10:13,279
Speaker 2: I said, Okay, I said, policy big.

196
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:13,879
Speaker 4: No big deal.

197
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:14,799
Speaker 5: Benny Brazil and.

198
00:10:17,519 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: We're going to have an Olympian in the house, a

199
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:21,600
national champion. That's a big deal.

200
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,639
Speaker 4: Okay, So my my actual big deal are no big deal.

201
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,240
I'm going to give you all two options and y'all

202
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:26,679
can let me.

203
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:27,039
Speaker 2: Is he here?

204
00:10:28,039 --> 00:10:28,279
Speaker 3: Yeah?

205
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,399
Speaker 4: Okay? Should I just should we just wrap this up?

206
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 3: We do want okay?

207
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 4: All right, I'm gonna give you.

208
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:33,399
Speaker 8: All two options.

209
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 4: Do we want to talk the Athletics QB Tier list

210
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,399
or do we want to talk the Milwaukee Brewers.

211
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 2: The Milwaukee Brewers talking about QB tiers.

212
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:49,039
Speaker 4: The Brewers are on their second double digit win streak

213
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,039
of the season, So they had a ten game win

214
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:55,159
streak earlier this season, and they're on the They're eleventh

215
00:10:55,759 --> 00:10:59,679
game that they won in a row, thirty games above

216
00:10:59,759 --> 00:11:03,279
five one hundred, which is just where did the Brewers

217
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:08,159
even come from? This is insane? But so there's only

218
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:12,200
ten or nine other teams that have done multiple double

219
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,720
digit win streaks in a season. So the twenty twenty

220
00:11:14,759 --> 00:11:19,360
five Brewers, the twenty nineteen Astros, the twenty seventeen Dodgers,

221
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:23,840
fifteen Blue Jays, thirteen Braves, the two thousand and one Cardinals,

222
00:11:24,039 --> 00:11:27,679
nineteen seventy eight Pirates, seventy seven Royals, sixty nine Mets,

223
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:32,360
and the sixty nine Astros. The Brewers on a heater,

224
00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:34,720
big dealer, No big, that's.

225
00:11:34,519 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 3: A big deal.

226
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,159
Speaker 2: There's a lot of people that would not know that

227
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,039
the Brewers are on that kind of a run. The

228
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,840
Brewers have a lot of great star players. Yellock, Yeah,

229
00:11:42,879 --> 00:11:45,080
I mean he's he's like the veteran now, yeah, he

230
00:11:45,159 --> 00:11:47,679
is he's like crazy, Yeah no, but they've got some

231
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,799
great prospects that have all kind of turned out and

232
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:50,799
get at the same time.

233
00:11:50,919 --> 00:11:54,799
Speaker 4: Ricky Caleb Durban's doing a great for them. Yeah yeah.

234
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 5: I don't know if you've heard On Palmer's take on this.

235
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 7: I think Hunt Palmer says the Milwaukee Brewers are cheating

236
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,279
because they don't have any good players, so how are

237
00:12:03,279 --> 00:12:03,679
they winning.

238
00:12:04,039 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 5: So Hunt actually thinks.

239
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 2: The Brewers they have evaluated those players, and those players

240
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,159
are all up at the big league level now playing

241
00:12:11,159 --> 00:12:11,639
really well.

242
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 6: At the same time, then they're an hour and a

243
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:14,399
half away from the Cubs.

244
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:19,919
Speaker 4: Hat Murphy is they're a manager like they're cheating because

245
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:21,799
they're better than the Cubs.

246
00:12:22,519 --> 00:12:24,679
Speaker 3: Gotta be. They don't have to be. I just know it. Deep.

247
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 6: Sorry, sorry, as soon as you said the Braves, I

248
00:12:28,039 --> 00:12:29,159
knew Jake is going big deal.

249
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,799
Speaker 2: Thirteen Braves, twenty thirteen brads. Let's go all right, Uh,

250
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,960

Speaker 2: I'm just glad. Look, I was like, hey, we gotta

284
00:14:28,799 --> 00:14:31,440
get you on the show. You said nine fifteen, you

285
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,559
were here at nine ten. I mean, the man of

286
00:14:33,559 --> 00:14:34,759
his word pun sure.

287
00:14:34,679 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 9: Hey, hey, you know we've been blessed with that situation.

288
00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:40,039
He says, you're gonna do something. You gotta honor, you

289
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,879
know what I mean. We come from that coacher. Before

290
00:14:41,879 --> 00:14:46,120
we start this, though, I have to give Matt Fleyn

291
00:14:46,159 --> 00:14:49,279
his flowers. I haven't seen Matt in a while, and

292
00:14:49,679 --> 00:14:52,320
I feel like the things he did in college, we're

293
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:52,840
gonna go back.

294
00:14:52,879 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 3: Matt.

295
00:14:53,519 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 8: I remember the a SEC Championship when JaMarcus got hurt.

296
00:14:56,039 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 9: Right that two thousand and five, Right, he gets hurt,

297
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,480
you gotta come in. I remember your first pass and

298
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:07,120
what happened on that out route, right, Yes, sir, but.

299
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 8: But you came back through all that adversity.

300
00:15:09,519 --> 00:15:12,879
Speaker 9: You know what I mean that Bowl game Miami, you

301
00:15:12,919 --> 00:15:15,879
showed out, you came back and you showed us something.

302
00:15:15,919 --> 00:15:17,919
You led us to that win. I have to get flowers

303
00:15:17,919 --> 00:15:20,320
on that. But it's more to the story. You come

304
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:24,440
back the next year, right, JaMarcus is back starting. You

305
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,919
could have left, could have transferred. You know they had

306
00:15:26,919 --> 00:15:30,399
a quarterback then. But you deal with that adversity. You

307
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,279
set there, you set back and just went through it right.

308
00:15:33,519 --> 00:15:35,799
And that next year you had your time. You delivered

309
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,840
us a national champ right. So I want to always

310
00:15:37,879 --> 00:15:40,919
give your flowers for that shoot. Always put you in

311
00:15:40,919 --> 00:15:41,799
the list with quarterbacks.

312
00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:42,919
Speaker 3: We have come through L. S. Shoe.

313
00:15:43,039 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 8: We had a lot of talented guys, probably more.

314
00:15:44,799 --> 00:15:47,519
Speaker 3: Times than you. But you want us to ship and.

315
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 9: That's what matters. Like when you and your family go

316
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,519
out theater around bet and rouge. Matt Flinn shouldn't have

317
00:15:52,559 --> 00:15:53,320
to pay. He's a champion.

318
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,639
Speaker 8: He bought us a champions and that's the culture championships.

319
00:15:56,639 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 3: When it comes to L.

320

00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,000

Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, the the only Benny story that we tell.

333
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,559
That's it's a little negative, but not because of what

334
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,679
Benny did, because of Coach Saban. The day we had

335
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,600
to run more one tens because Benny, who was doing

336
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,080
exactly what he was supposed to be doing, he was

337
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,879
making his times. There's a time Benny was coming in

338
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,159
under the time. But because Benny wasn't winning every race

339
00:16:45,519 --> 00:16:47,720
and he was an Olympian, Coach Saban thought we needed

340
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:49,360
to start the whole one ten test over.

341
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 8: I apologize for that.

342
00:16:51,399 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 3: That's me. I'm wrong.

343
00:16:54,039 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 9: I apologize. You guys go through that. But it wasn't

344
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,840
just coach Saban. The other half of that was coach Maffitt.

345
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:00,279
Oh yeah, it was him.

346
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:00,559
Speaker 3: Yeah.

347
00:17:00,639 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 2: But but again, like you were doing everything that you

348
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,720
were supposed to do, you just weren't winning every race.

349
00:17:05,759 --> 00:17:08,400
And like you're going to the Olympics and you're not winning.

350
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:09,799
Every race started over.

351
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I apologize that was four. I mean you had summertimes.

352
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,519
Speaker 9: That was four was so it had to be that

353
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,640
next year after that was summer time.

354
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 3: I guess five, like whatever summertime runs. I remember that.

355
00:17:22,599 --> 00:17:26,839
Speaker 9: We were like we're like what thirty one?

356
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, because when.

357
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 2: Were you out for the Olympics, Like you were outside

358
00:17:31,519 --> 00:17:32,279
whole summer.

359
00:17:32,039 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 9: Train, just the summer training. You know what I'm saying

360
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,240
that I came back back at the very end. I

361
00:17:35,279 --> 00:17:36,400
came back at the very end.

362
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,880
Speaker 3: That's when that was really. I think that's where it was.

363
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,759
I remember I remember in mid stride that was tough.

364
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,759
Speaker 8: You know, don't I don't think they run one teams

365
00:17:45,759 --> 00:17:46,079
no more.

366
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 2: They don't.

367
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 3: It's changed.

368
00:17:47,599 --> 00:17:51,400
Speaker 2: They don't. I mean even like the guys that were here,

369
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,160
like Kirby Smart was here four and I remember asking

370
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,200
Kirby last spring, I'm like, what's the conditioning test now?

371
00:17:58,279 --> 00:17:59,640
He's like, oh, hees, we don't do the one ten

372
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,599
stuff more. It's like we're not knuckleheads like we used

373
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,279
to be. We got the GPS and we know if

374
00:18:04,279 --> 00:18:06,000
a guy is not working hard. We can tell and

375
00:18:06,079 --> 00:18:07,599
we make him run after that, he's like now one

376
00:18:07,599 --> 00:18:09,599
tens or a thing. In the past, Coach Saban didn't

377
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,920
run him at the end either. No shocks had to

378
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,480
change it a little bit. I heard it, but I

379
00:18:13,519 --> 00:18:15,960
wish you needed that. Bill care You remember our fourth

380
00:18:16,039 --> 00:18:19,359
like the fourth quarter program, Like I had to come

381
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,160
having the trash cans like every five yards, and I had.

382
00:18:22,039 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 3: To come out the track practice. That's changed. I had

383
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,559
to try right part in the evening.

384
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,559
Speaker 9: Yeah, it was forty five. It was in the evening

385
00:18:33,599 --> 00:18:35,599
time back then. So I had to come straight from

386
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,640
track practice to four quarter program. And then we're going

387
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,559
to these you know, we're doing all these stations and

388
00:18:40,599 --> 00:18:43,440
then you get the coach net station.

389
00:18:43,519 --> 00:18:51,759
Speaker 8: I couldn't take that serious or something. But yes, good thing,

390
00:18:51,839 --> 00:18:52,839
good times, good times.

391
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of good times, Benny, I want you to,

392
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,440
uh look at it now. Don't listen. Don't pay attention

393
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:01,799
to how grainy this is.

394
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:02,799
Speaker 3: Because we.

395
00:19:04,799 --> 00:19:08,039
Speaker 2: Played a long time ago, right, So look, we got

396
00:19:08,079 --> 00:19:10,599
a Bennie Brazil, we got a Matt Flynn, we got

397
00:19:10,599 --> 00:19:13,400
myself in here. We're all in the game. At the carry.

398
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:18,000
Carter a little shy up there in the eye. Let's see,

399
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,720
let's see how this play turns out for the law

400
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,440
Shoe Tigers against the Old Miss Rebels. My god, that's grainy.

401
00:19:25,319 --> 00:19:34,759
Oh what a release by that fullback. Benny's five yard down.

402
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,839
Maybe the only time that Benny didn't get a celebration

403
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,960
penalty was on this touchdown right here because he was

404
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:42,960
good for two or three.

405
00:19:45,599 --> 00:19:47,319
Speaker 3: I've never been there before. I've never been there.

406
00:19:48,799 --> 00:19:51,279
Speaker 2: Any of those though that year and five did Benny

407
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,920
catch like at least six of those kind of passes

408
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:56,960
that were like fifty plus yards. It felt like good

409
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,279
time the Florida game and five good time day game. Yes,

410
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,400
Tiger Stadium. I think Jay Russ hits you maybe.

411
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,759
Speaker 9: On the same play, yep, same thing in Arkansas. It

412
00:20:05,799 --> 00:20:09,200
was a couple of them good times fellers. Wow, how

413
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,000
does that make you feel? How grainy that was? Though

414
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,720
it's a little it makes me look my age a

415
00:20:13,759 --> 00:20:15,359
little bit, you know what I mean. But at the

416
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,240
end of the day, it was a touchdown. And like

417
00:20:17,279 --> 00:20:20,119
they said, you want a championship, man, I don't care.

418
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,599
You want us a ship you went next. I can't

419
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:23,359
take that from us.

420
00:20:23,559 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 3: I think it's got to be a bad download.

421
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 2: Right YouTube, you went to LimeWire to get that.

422
00:20:29,559 --> 00:20:32,319
Speaker 5: We were talking about it yesterday like this was five.

423
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,920
This looks like in nineteen seven. You gotta have a

424
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:36,480
better one than that.

425
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:41,559
Speaker 9: Crazy That was coach Madains first year, right, Yeah, Yeah,

426
00:20:41,599 --> 00:20:42,640
that was such a good team.

427
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 2: It was a great team. Tough year obviously with Hurricane Katrina.

428
00:20:46,279 --> 00:20:48,319
Where we're supposed to start the season planning against I

429
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,000
believe North Texas. That game gets canceled. We're supposed to

430
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,119
play Arizona State across the street. Yep, that doesn't happen.

431
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,799
We have to fly out to Arizona. I remember that Tempee.

432
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:58,279
They were a good team that were ranked teams.

433
00:20:58,279 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 3: It was we got kind of lucky. Yeah.

434
00:21:01,559 --> 00:21:05,680
Speaker 2: We we blocked the kick for a touchdown. Ye blocked

435
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,200
the punt for a touchdown. Then JaMarcus hits early on

436
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,279
a play that if it gets reviewed.

437
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 3: Out of the game.

438
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, but it worked out.

439
00:21:13,759 --> 00:21:14,680
Speaker 3: It worked out.

440
00:21:15,039 --> 00:21:19,559
Speaker 2: If if that season it was a normal season, I

441
00:21:19,599 --> 00:21:21,599
think LSU compete for a national champion.

442
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 8: I totally agree. But the next year, no excuse six.

443
00:21:25,519 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 9: Yes, I think that was one of the greatest chance

444
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,160
we ever had on paper, offense and.

445
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 2: D four first round picks.

446
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 3: Totally agree.

447
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,079
Speaker 8: So that team there no way that should have won

448
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:33,680
to ship.

449
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 2: Losses to Florida on the road in Florida on the road, Yeah,

450
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,880
that's what it was. We lost to Auburn, was like

451
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,559
nine to six or something something, low scoring game.

452
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,599
Speaker 8: Yeah, but as far as talent wise, both sides of

453
00:21:45,599 --> 00:21:46,519
the ball was amazing.

454
00:21:46,599 --> 00:21:48,559
Speaker 2: I'm with you. I'm with you. Now that season ended,

455
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,759
it ended well beating Notre Dame at the Sugar Bowl, but.

456
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:54,559
Speaker 3: Suld have done more. Totally agreed.

457
00:21:54,599 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 2: That was a window of now in four I don't

458
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:57,839
know if y'all agree.

459
00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:58,799
Speaker 3: We were We're.

460
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,680
Speaker 2: Okay, We're just three football team. Yeah, we had some town,

461
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,640
we had some you know, we had seaweb and spears

462
00:22:03,839 --> 00:22:06,319
on those guys. Ton, but we lost a ton because

463
00:22:06,319 --> 00:22:10,559
you won the national championship. But five O six there

464
00:22:10,559 --> 00:22:12,519
should have been at least one championship in those times.

465
00:22:12,559 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 3: I totally agree.

466
00:22:14,519 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, when both those teams were clicking, playing its best

467
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,519
football game plan, everybody healthy, like there was no team better.

468
00:22:21,799 --> 00:22:25,039
Certainly like there's no team in O six beating the

469
00:22:25,039 --> 00:22:25,839
team that showed.

470
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,279
Speaker 3: Up at the Sugar Bowl. Totally agree. Nobody, nobody even

471
00:22:28,279 --> 00:22:29,599
closed what did you.

472
00:22:29,599 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 9: Think the problem was in O six with you guys,

473
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,799
because we were already we had left.

474
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:34,799
Speaker 3: So what was different those?

475
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 2: I mean just two close road losses. So okay, I'll

476
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,160
tell you what. At Florida, we're at the swamp. We

477
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,000
score first, we hit like a two forty six Yukon

478
00:22:44,519 --> 00:22:48,319
score first, boom, and we're going in for our second score.

479
00:22:49,279 --> 00:22:51,400
And I think we were on fullback belly. I think

480
00:22:51,519 --> 00:22:52,960
we're at the ten. I think I get it down

481
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,000
to the one. I still think I scored whatever they

482
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,799
call it, down the one first and goal from the one.

483
00:22:56,839 --> 00:23:02,200
We're good, Okay, Jerry Russ Fommelton next. Now fumbled at Florida,

484
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,079
got it they went, they scored, and now we're talking

485
00:23:05,079 --> 00:23:07,519
about we were gone up. I think a couple of scores.

486
00:23:07,839 --> 00:23:09,960
Now it's like tid game crazy. And then that was

487
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:14,039
t ba's first ever jump pack Tibo mania. That was.

488
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,839
That was a tough game and we could not do.

489
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,240
The defense tried. It's one of those games. The defense

490
00:23:18,319 --> 00:23:19,920
tried to keep us in it for as long as

491
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:25,240
they could, but put him in bass situations. We had

492
00:23:25,279 --> 00:23:28,000
special teams play. I think I missed you. I don't

493
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,880
remember who it was. And might have been somebody somebody

494
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:31,519
muffed the punt.

495
00:23:31,519 --> 00:23:32,880
Speaker 3: I think something like that.

496
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, those two road games at Auburn and that floor.

497
00:23:35,279 --> 00:23:39,319
Now we're talking today's college football with that resume the playoffs.

498
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 9: So I think in our times, I think it was

499
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,359
just different and I think we had a standard. When

500
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,079
I say that, at that time, it was either BCS

501
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:50,079
a Bush. Remember that BCS the Bush. That's the standard.

502
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:51,759
Speaker 3: You know. If we didn't go to the BCS, I

503
00:23:51,799 --> 00:23:55,359
mean Texas Bowl. No disrespect of those bowl games, no bowl,

504
00:23:55,519 --> 00:23:57,880
no disrespect to them. But that was not standard, you

505
00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:58,359
know what I mean.

506
00:23:58,359 --> 00:23:59,839
Speaker 9: And I think when it comes to L s U

507
00:24:00,079 --> 00:24:03,279
football and some sports, the standards of championships a bus.

508
00:24:03,519 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think it should be that. Like I

509
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,880
think like if you ask Jay Johnson what the standard

510
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,559
is championships, he's not gonna tell you anything like record.

511
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,799
He's gonna say, omaha, So what he's gonna say? I mean,

512
00:24:13,839 --> 00:24:15,680
same thing you us Kim Mulky like, hey, what's the standard?

513
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,119
She's gonna tell your final fours? Track, same way, rack

514
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:19,759
and field, Like you've got a standard that you are

515
00:24:19,759 --> 00:24:21,519
going to try to list like now that it's a

516
00:24:21,519 --> 00:24:24,759
twelve team playoff for LSU, because you're right, like it

517
00:24:24,839 --> 00:24:26,599
was a BCS game when we were in school, there

518
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,160
was only so many of those. Now that's a twelve

519
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,279
team playoff. It's playoff or bus And if it's not

520
00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,519
that way, then you don't need to be here. Like

521
00:24:33,559 --> 00:24:36,000
in any sport, I'm talking any sport. I love, just

522
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,119
got any sport.

523
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,279
Speaker 3: I think that's the expectation, certainly the expectation this year.

524
00:24:40,319 --> 00:24:42,319
It's gotta be. And you said us.

525
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 6: In track, tell us about your coaching track, tell us

526
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,240
about what you're doing, your role right now and your

527
00:24:47,279 --> 00:24:47,960
day to day.

528
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 3: No good question.

529
00:24:49,039 --> 00:24:51,079
Speaker 8: So we kind of like an off season at this point.

530
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 9: Right now, you got people getting ready for world championships

531
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,720
coming up, so preparing for their different countries us say,

532
00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,480
anybody else that's on our team, So they're preparing for

533
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,759
that situation. But when it comes to the collegiate wise,

534
00:25:01,759 --> 00:25:03,000
we're getting ready to start practice.

535
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:04,599
Speaker 3: I want to say. We always go to day after.

536
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 9: Labor Day, we get the fall training going on everybody

537
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,480
and we're getting this ball rolling. So for the most part,

538
00:25:10,519 --> 00:25:12,440
we just ended up with recruiting and everything at this

539
00:25:12,559 --> 00:25:14,400
point and were just ready to get the season started.

540
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,759
Speaker 2: Couldn't you coach Matt Flynn to run the three hunters hurdles?

541
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 9: No, sir, I cannot do that. I wouldn't want to

542
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,960
see that. Like I said, Matt's already made men.

543
00:25:25,039 --> 00:25:25,640
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.

544
00:25:25,759 --> 00:25:28,799
Speaker 9: He bought He bought LSU a championship. So I feel

545
00:25:28,799 --> 00:25:30,559
like when you bring LSU a championship, you in a

546
00:25:30,559 --> 00:25:31,200
different category.

547
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 2: Is it something you did like all growing up as well,

548
00:25:33,559 --> 00:25:35,160
or is that something like you kind of found later

549
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,680
on as you got the l shoot good.

550
00:25:36,559 --> 00:25:38,519
Speaker 3: Question in high school.

551
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,519
Speaker 9: In middle school, I was just running regular and I

552
00:25:42,559 --> 00:25:43,160
was just trying.

553
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 3: One day, I say, you know, let me try this.

554
00:25:45,039 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 9: I was just trying it one day and I had

555
00:25:46,519 --> 00:25:48,319
to I was running the sprint hurdles, and I had

556
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,000
to want two three one two three.

557
00:25:50,039 --> 00:25:50,839
Speaker 8: It just came natural.

558
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:52,839
Speaker 9: So at then I just start doing it, you know

559
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,720
what I mean. And I around seventh grade. I started

560
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,319
eighth grade, I was okay. Ninth grade, I kind of

561
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,880
started coming a little bit. But I sophomore year in

562
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,440
high school, guess.

563
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 6: I can't believe you say you can't coach me to what?

564
00:26:06,559 --> 00:26:08,559
But I guess my my high school coach did tell

565
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,519
us that, like you can't win the Kentucky Derby with

566
00:26:11,559 --> 00:26:14,359
a jackass. I guess that's the statement, right, I guess

567
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,559
I guess I'm the jackass.

568
00:26:19,839 --> 00:26:23,279
Speaker 2: Well, I mean you said it, not me. Uh you

569
00:26:23,319 --> 00:26:25,319
mentioned like I don't even know if we were on

570
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,000
air when you said this, but like, you know, used

571
00:26:27,039 --> 00:26:29,400
to go like track practice, football practice. We always tell

572
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,519
stories about the guys that played baseball. Uh, you know

573
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,559
Chad Jones, you, Jared Mitchell, Chris Jackson. It was a

574
00:26:35,599 --> 00:26:37,799
part of team with us, like they would change on

575
00:26:37,799 --> 00:26:40,240
their way to the box and go play baseball. Uh,

576
00:26:40,279 --> 00:26:42,359
so you've done it in the track world as well.

577
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,640
So Jelanney Watkins is trying to do that, like right now,

578
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,440
Like what, like what are the challenges because it's I'm

579
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,759
sure like a different mindset obviously, Like he is so

580
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,200
good on the track, he's so good on the grid iron.

581
00:26:53,519 --> 00:26:55,440
What is it like trying to make sure that you're

582
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,519
in the right mindset depending on what sport you're at.

583
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 9: I think that's good question as well too. I think

584
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:03,720
for the most part when it comes to it with

585
00:27:03,799 --> 00:27:05,960
us as being like athletes, because we love both, right,

586
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,279
we love football and we love track. So the crazy

587
00:27:08,319 --> 00:27:11,079
part about it is when you win football season, you

588
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,400
win football season, you're thinking about track, and when you're

589
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,799
in track season, you're thinking definitely about track, you know

590
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:17,680
what I mean. So for the most part, it all

591
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,000
comes together because sometimes when you at track practice, you

592
00:27:20,039 --> 00:27:21,720
got to be able to go back to the spring ball,

593
00:27:22,039 --> 00:27:22,920
spring meetings and.

594
00:27:22,839 --> 00:27:24,079
Speaker 3: All that kind of aspect of it.

595
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 9: So you just got to keep your mental right, I mean,

596
00:27:27,279 --> 00:27:29,200
just stay positive best way you can, because we already

597
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,000
know you're gonna go through some adversity. I think in

598
00:27:31,079 --> 00:27:33,440
our time what made it different. We were red shirted, right,

599
00:27:33,759 --> 00:27:35,720
So in our time it was okay to be red shirted.

600
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,279
Speaker 8: Right these days, yeah, we wouldn't know you got it.

601
00:27:39,319 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 9: Hester you got it, you played at the true freshman congratulations.

602
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 8: But for the most part, it's okay to be red shirted,

603
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:45,440
you know what I mean.

604
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,799
Speaker 9: So I think these days and age, when guys get

605
00:27:47,839 --> 00:27:50,559
red shirted, they go in a tank guard this cre

606
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,519
and I know it's hard social media. Just imagine if

607
00:27:52,559 --> 00:27:55,680
we are all roommates in college US three. Yeah Heester's playing,

608
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,759
we're not playing. Were red shirted, and the social media stuff

609
00:27:58,839 --> 00:28:00,480
is going on, We're gonna feel some time way, you

610
00:28:00,519 --> 00:28:01,920
know what I mean. So you got to be able

611
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,200
to block that out the best you can, Like coach

612
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:05,920
Sabman always said, block out the rat poison.

613
00:28:06,079 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, I canque on how you handle your track athletes

614
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,480
because it's it's such a different sport than anything else

615
00:28:14,519 --> 00:28:18,039
because they do have like the Olympics, the World's thy

616
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,240
goa right, and different meets outside of just LSU. So

617
00:28:21,759 --> 00:28:24,279
like when you're coaching somebody, are you kind of like

618
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,640
end up being their personal coad? Do you travel with

619
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,039
them and coach them up for these different events?

620
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,599
Speaker 9: It just depends on what the track media is whatever

621
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,960
it is, Like I feel like collegian legs because under twenties,

622
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,319
but usually like World Championships and Olympics for the most part,

623
00:28:38,599 --> 00:28:40,319
Kochhev would be there, but if it's part of our

624
00:28:40,319 --> 00:28:42,000
sprinting athletes, I'll be there as well with them as

625
00:28:42,039 --> 00:28:43,640
well too. That's anybody on our staff, you know what

626
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,640
I mean. So how it comes to that aspect, but

627
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,559
it just depends on it. But the number one thing

628
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:51,319
is the NCAA Championship, coach Benning, right, that's number one.

629
00:28:51,559 --> 00:28:54,039
Speaker 8: Then Olympics and everything else. But the main thing is

630
00:28:54,039 --> 00:28:54,599
the main thing.

631
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,359
Speaker 9: Yeah, So I think at the end that you focus

632
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,960
one in that national championship first and go to everything else.

633
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 6: I would assume more like but I was saying, those

634
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,440
outside meets kind of help with recruiting athlete.

635
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:05,519
Speaker 3: Big time, big time.

636
00:29:05,599 --> 00:29:07,079
Speaker 8: They see it that way, but I feel like it

637
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:07,640
helps out.

638
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:09,119
Speaker 9: But you know, the number one thing is changed now

639
00:29:09,119 --> 00:29:11,200
it's all about nil, So I think that's kind of

640
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,079
important as well too. So I feel like the resume

641
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,119
really doesn't matter no more of what you've done, and

642
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:16,799
it's about what can you do for me?

643
00:29:16,839 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 1: Now?

644
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 2: Give me your favorite play you were involved in l

645
00:29:20,079 --> 00:29:21,799
s U football, l SU football.

646
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:23,519
Speaker 3: Favorite your favorite one?

647
00:29:23,799 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 2: My favorite one because my mind, I'm not even like

648
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,079
it's O five versus Florida, like I said urban Meyer,

649
00:29:29,119 --> 00:29:31,599
I believe his first year there. I want to say

650
00:29:31,599 --> 00:29:34,359
they came in maybe even as a favorite. In that game.

651
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,480
It is a CBS Day game. It was hotter than

652
00:29:36,519 --> 00:29:39,160
hot obviously, and Benny kind of closed the door on that.

653
00:29:39,319 --> 00:29:41,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say that that was my first touchdown.

654
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,000
It was huge. That was really huge for the game.

655
00:29:44,039 --> 00:29:44,759
I thought that was huge.

656
00:29:44,799 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 2: You get a fifteen year pal, I did got it.

657
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 3: I got in trouble.

658
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 8: You know, I got you know, I got cussed out

659
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:49,839
on Monday.

660
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,799
Speaker 3: Coach Mouse got me remember that meeting.

661
00:29:52,319 --> 00:29:56,599
Speaker 9: Yea next time again, next time I see you again

662
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,519
on the sideline, You're gonna be on the sideline with

663
00:29:58,559 --> 00:29:59,039
me next time.

664
00:29:59,599 --> 00:30:01,519
Speaker 8: I act like he been there and I was like,

665
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:02,400
I haven't.

666
00:30:03,079 --> 00:30:04,799
Speaker 3: Jimbo said, well, you know, he's right, you haven't been

667
00:30:04,799 --> 00:30:05,200
there before.

668
00:30:06,519 --> 00:30:09,559
Speaker 6: But let me let your celebration. Your yours is like

669
00:30:09,599 --> 00:30:11,440
the most genuinely like positive.

670
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 3: It wasn't look at me. It was just like, I'm excited.

671
00:30:16,039 --> 00:30:19,119
Let me celebrate. We gotta we got to celebrate together.

672
00:30:19,519 --> 00:30:22,559
Speaker 2: Don't worry, listeners, We'll we'll find that clip at some point.

673
00:30:22,559 --> 00:30:24,720
We'll play that Florida touchdown. Benny Man, you're the man.

674
00:30:24,799 --> 00:30:27,000
This has been a lot of fun. Probably, Like I said,

675
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,359
I mean, it's like open door policy. Whenever you want

676
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,440
to come in if track has something going on, football like,

677
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,119
it doesn't matter. If you just want to come hang out,

678
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:35,240
you got an open door.

679
00:30:35,559 --> 00:30:37,839
Speaker 9: I appreciate that, but that's not I forget the standard

680
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,160
of LSU is championships had some of the greatest individual

681
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,920
athletes come through LSU before one of the best ones ever.

682
00:30:44,119 --> 00:30:46,119
Speaker 3: I mean, hey, Shack, right, Shack was good.

683
00:30:46,279 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, good.

684
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 3: Shout out to Uncle Mallett.

685
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 9: You know Sharik, my little nephew. Shaq was one of

686
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:51,920
the greatest to come through l s U. But he

687
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,559
didn't win. I still love him though. It's about championships.

688
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 3: It is. Look at this, Look at this.

689
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 2: Let's go back. Yeah, we got the clip. Let's go back.

690
00:31:01,079 --> 00:31:02,960
It's so funny that that guy, oh wit, this is

691
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:08,960
grainy too. My gosh, it's just this is not good.

692
00:31:09,039 --> 00:31:11,839
Look I see you face Jones with the block Benn

693
00:31:11,839 --> 00:31:15,680
in Brazil down the sideline fifteen yards. That got him

694
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,240
fifteen yards. That right there got Benny fifteen yards.

695
00:31:18,319 --> 00:31:24,799
Speaker 3: So good. And think for myself that a team coaches

696
00:31:25,119 --> 00:31:26,559
haven't been there, haven't been one of the.

697
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 2: Benny. We appreciate it. I appreciate it.

728
00:33:06,799 --> 00:33:10,160
our guy, Bennie Brazil came in studio surprise us. It

729
00:33:10,279 --> 00:33:12,200
was awesome. I know you probably see Benny all the

730
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:16,839
time there y, you know, probably in the cafeteria certainly

731
00:33:16,839 --> 00:33:20,240
serving food and nutrition at center. So we had Benny

732
00:33:20,359 --> 00:33:23,400
on our guy. So we apologize for the tardness, but

733
00:33:23,519 --> 00:33:25,079
you know, Benny, I mean lights up a room. We

734
00:33:25,119 --> 00:33:27,279
had to have Bennie on for like twenty minutes.

735
00:33:28,119 --> 00:33:30,519
Speaker 10: Benny's one of my favorites for sure. Man, I love

736
00:33:30,559 --> 00:33:32,759
Benny's death. I'll take a back seat to Bennie any

737
00:33:32,799 --> 00:33:33,279
day of the week.

738
00:33:35,119 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 2: All right, chef, Like, how's it going, how's everything like? Camp?

739
00:33:38,039 --> 00:33:40,200
We know, man, this is a time where it's just

740
00:33:40,319 --> 00:33:42,799
like every single time you turn around, you probably feel

741
00:33:42,799 --> 00:33:44,200
like you're trying to feed an athlete.

742
00:33:44,759 --> 00:33:47,519
Speaker 10: Yeah. You know, yesterday I asked somebody what day of

743
00:33:47,519 --> 00:33:51,319
the week it was twice and what time it was

744
00:33:51,359 --> 00:33:55,559
twice because I've been losing tractive days and you know,

745
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,839
at like five o'clock in the afternoon yesterday, I wasn't

746
00:33:58,839 --> 00:34:01,359
sure if it was five AM or five MS. So, yeah,

747
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:02,200
it happens.

748
00:34:02,599 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 2: Hashtag of munchies hunting season is three weeks away. What's

749
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:07,920
your favorite wild game to cook eat?

750
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 10: Oh that's a good question, man, And honestly, I have

751
00:34:11,039 --> 00:34:12,719
you know, like I thought about hunting a deer for

752
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:16,480
the first time like two days ago, and I don't know,

753
00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:19,360
you know, it's probably gonna be deer. I mean, I've

754
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,280
I've never hunted an elk before, but I think it

755
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:26,159
could be something larger than a deer. But it's it's

756
00:34:26,159 --> 00:34:28,280
always going to be something that's in the moment fresh,

757
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,199
you know, Like I like to peel the backstraps out

758
00:34:30,199 --> 00:34:32,400
of a deer and cook them. I'd like I like,

759
00:34:32,559 --> 00:34:35,320
I like eating rabbit, you know, like I just kind

760
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,199
of enjoy you know, the hunt and the kill and

761
00:34:38,199 --> 00:34:41,360
and reaping the rewards of it. So I don't I

762
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,920
don't know that I have a favorite species, although there

763
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,440
is something really special about shooting a wild boar and

764
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,360
eating it, you know, like that not everybody eats wild

765
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,559
boar but I but I do. And I take a

766
00:34:52,559 --> 00:34:55,920
particular fondness for because not only are you killing a

767
00:34:56,039 --> 00:34:58,800
creature and you know, like putting it on the plate,

768
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,159
but you're also helping me in vironment and doing so yeah.

769
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 6: Yeah, the backstrap off while board is incredible and oh yeah,

770
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,519
and then just to add to that, my favorite would

771
00:35:08,559 --> 00:35:11,760
be the Mallard duck breast like a.

772
00:35:11,679 --> 00:35:14,599
Speaker 10: Fresh yeah so good, yeah.

773
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:14,800
Speaker 3: Very good.

774
00:35:15,519 --> 00:35:20,199
Speaker 6: Yeah chef hashtag munchies here putting together my wedding registry.

775
00:35:20,199 --> 00:35:23,280
What do you recommend for kitchen utensils, wood and metal

776
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:24,119
for different things?

777
00:35:24,199 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 10: Yeah? Man, you know, like I think every kitchen has

778
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,320
to have a sort of a set of really good

779
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,480
wooden like spoon sets and and and ladles and such.

780
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,079
And you know, I just yesterday I was looking at

781
00:35:36,119 --> 00:35:39,559
an olive wood set because pretty the wood is really dense.

782
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,280
Olive wood is uh, super tolerant of abuse in the kitchen.

783
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,559
There's some other woods, but they're a little bit more precious,

784
00:35:47,599 --> 00:35:50,320
and I you know, like they're they're good wood, good

785
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,559
woods to use, but they're kind of controversial as to

786
00:35:53,599 --> 00:35:56,400
whether we should be using them or not. And I

787
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:59,199
like damboo in the kitchen honestly, so I think some

788
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:04,519
one of those. I think a wine opener is important,

789
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,639
you know, like a proper wine opener, you know, because

790
00:36:07,679 --> 00:36:10,079
if you're if you're when I'm cooking at home, I

791
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:11,960
you know, like I kind of get passionate about what

792
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:13,920
I'm doing and you know, sharing that moment with my

793
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:17,880
loved ones. So I think that that's important. You know,

794
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,840
my knives are are like an extension of my hands

795
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:24,519
man and having the right tool for the right job

796
00:36:24,639 --> 00:36:27,039
is important. So a good set of knives is always important.

797
00:36:27,079 --> 00:36:30,119
I'm a Woostoff guy. I carry Woostos. There's other more

798
00:36:30,119 --> 00:36:33,519
affordable knives out there, but I have a knife for

799
00:36:33,559 --> 00:36:37,360
every task. I probably have. I probably have one hundred

800
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:42,199
knives somewhere shape or form over between the kitchen and

801
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,559
the house of you know, like different you know, like

802
00:36:44,679 --> 00:36:49,559
cheese knives and and different different tasks and such. I

803
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,199
don't know why, but I have a I have a

804
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,480
real fondness for a particular type of calendar. You know

805
00:36:55,559 --> 00:36:58,599
that it's I in particular, you know, like a sturdy,

806
00:36:58,639 --> 00:37:01,760
stainless steel And I found one just the other day,

807
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:03,400
And you guys are gonna be like, what the hell's

808
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,880
wrong with chef. But it's a it's a very steep,

809
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:10,119
sloped sided calendar I think lets the water and the

810
00:37:10,159 --> 00:37:15,639
materials flow out easier versus a broader, broader based one

811
00:37:15,639 --> 00:37:17,920
that you know isn't going to sit inside the kitchen

812
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,119
sink and so I just have an appreciation for the

813
00:37:20,159 --> 00:37:23,000
well thought out things that are quality, that do their

814
00:37:23,079 --> 00:37:23,559
job well.

815
00:37:24,039 --> 00:37:26,679
Speaker 6: Is there something in it, like a kitchen tool or

816
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:30,039
utensil that is like a frequent gift that people give

817
00:37:30,079 --> 00:37:31,719
to somebody, and like when you go to someone's house

818
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:33,760
they pull it out and you just kind of cringe, like, ugh,

819
00:37:34,039 --> 00:37:35,159
that's that's kind of dumb.

820
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,559
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, like a garnic press. It's one of

821
00:37:38,599 --> 00:37:40,840
those things. I kind of like, it's amentary gardic. It

822
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:45,559
doesn't take three seconds, you know. Like, but I do

823
00:37:45,679 --> 00:37:47,760
like a lemon dreamer, which is kind of weird, you know,

824
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,400
because it kind of I don't know. Well, I'm actually

825
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,440
not going to go down the road. I hear the

826
00:37:53,519 --> 00:37:55,639
voice of T Bob in my ear, you know, going

827
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:57,840
down this path of what a rumor is. And so

828
00:37:57,960 --> 00:37:59,719
I'm just gonna call now.

829
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:05,880
Speaker 2: A good idea hashtag munchies, any good healthy meal ideas

830
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,480
that I can cook at a beach house for eleven

831
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,559
people that's not too time consuming.

832
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,159
Speaker 10: You know. I love putting together a fresh falsa or

833
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,519
thebch and letting its fit, you know, because it can.

834
00:38:18,159 --> 00:38:20,039
And I like to take if you you know, if

835
00:38:20,039 --> 00:38:22,360
you have the fish available to you. You know, I

836
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,280
think I was just in grand Al not too long

837
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,679
ago when we caught fresh snapper and put it, you know,

838
00:38:27,679 --> 00:38:30,400
put it in the bowl and the incidity helps it.

839
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,079
It actually proves itself better to sit it on the

840
00:38:33,079 --> 00:38:35,199
table and let it fit, because it cooks better that

841
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,960
way rather than refrigerated. And you know, you can just

842
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,039
throw it together and pull some chips and people enjoy

843
00:38:42,079 --> 00:38:43,599
it for what it is. And if you make a

844
00:38:43,639 --> 00:38:45,760
big batch of it, you know, like I don't know,

845
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:48,039
I love sabch and I love I love salsa, but

846
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,079
you know, you can turn a salsa into a fruity

847
00:38:50,119 --> 00:38:53,119
salsa with paink pineapples and mangos and such, and you know,

848
00:38:53,159 --> 00:38:54,800
I think the kids will eat it that way rather

849
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,440
than it just being spicy. But if I'm at the beach,

850
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,280
I'm it is almost certain I'm going to have one

851
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,199
of those two things, chef.

852
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:09,280
Speaker 6: The are some like health safety controversy on nonstick pants.

853
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,880
Do you use like traditional store bought nonstick pans or

854
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,400
do you kind of just season up the cast ire?

855
00:39:15,679 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 3: How do you work with the nonstick?

856
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,639
Speaker 10: I did not use nonstick, specifically teflon coded so the

857
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,360
controversy behind teflon is is that it doesn't have a

858
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:26,800
half life, but it is a forever chemicals and if

859
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,880
you ingest that if it starts flaking and gets into

860
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:33,000
your food, it can you know, it will stay in

861
00:39:33,039 --> 00:39:38,159
your body for your life. And there is proven like

862
00:39:39,039 --> 00:39:42,000
there is a particular chemical company out there that produced

863
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,159
this material that has been sued time and time again

864
00:39:45,199 --> 00:39:47,920
for like the past thirty years and lost and that

865
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,800
they are still paying out because the where they started

866
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,360
producing teflon was soaking into the ground and started making

867
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,920
the township sick and the cattle sick. And so it's

868
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:00,840
not a matter of whether it is is an absolute

869
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,159
and so you know, the idea is that it's intact

870
00:40:04,159 --> 00:40:06,719
in the pan, it's nonstick. But if it's not and

871
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,599
it's flucking a way, it is a car synergen and

872
00:40:09,599 --> 00:40:12,920
and we just we just don't mess with it. I

873
00:40:13,519 --> 00:40:16,079
prefer to get a fan. I like stainless, and I

874
00:40:16,199 --> 00:40:20,679
like copper, and I like cast iron outside of those three.

875
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,360
You know, like if you hear somebody say there's this

876
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:27,320
new science behind nonstick, you know, food has been around

877
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,079
for a long time, you know, metallurgy has been around

878
00:40:30,119 --> 00:40:33,679
for a long time. I trust what I understand, and

879
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:34,880
I know, so when you.

880
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:36,760
Speaker 6: Make when you're making like a fried egg on a

881
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,039
stainless or a copper you have to use plenty of oil.

882
00:40:40,159 --> 00:40:41,440
Speaker 3: Is that how we we fit?

883
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 10: Yeah, proper heat, the proper proper amount of heat in

884
00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:46,639
the in the in the proper amount of oil. And

885
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:50,199
you know, like if you I think that those nonstick

886
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:55,679
pans are meant for absorbing lesser talents, is cook in

887
00:40:55,679 --> 00:41:00,480
the kitchen? You know? Yeah, yeah, exactly. And so I

888
00:41:00,599 --> 00:41:02,679
prefer to you know, I'm a man of education. I

889
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:06,159
like to teach people versus you know, kind of simplified

890
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,559
or done myself down to the less least common denominator.

891
00:41:09,559 --> 00:41:12,079
I would prefer to throw people. And so I'm gonna

892
00:41:12,119 --> 00:41:13,400
teach you how to cook in the right fan.

893
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,599
Speaker 2: There he is, Chef Michael Johnson, good enough to join

00:44:37,599 --> 00:44:38,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

960
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,760
Speaker 6: They said, yeah, Jacob, you red shirted in high school.

961
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:42,159
That's just called being held back.

962
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:46,440
Speaker 2: You know what, That's not true. I got red shirt

963
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:49,159
in fifth grade. Turns out they don't know what they're

964
00:44:49,159 --> 00:44:54,320
talking about. Jokes on you. U was a nineteen when

965
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,360
I got here. Maybe maybe a red shirt did not.

966
00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,559
Speaker 6: Hold you in seventh grade. I'm sitting there halfway through

967
00:44:59,599 --> 00:45:05,239
the cool year. I walks in from streetport evangel transferred

968
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,719
to our middle school, had a mustache.

969
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:10,039
Speaker 2: You're driving?

970
00:45:12,679 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 3: Can good friends with them too?

971
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:18,039
Speaker 2: Ask the bench? Can we get an intern handheld dry

972
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:22,840
erase board? I thought, I thought that's what he said

973
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:24,800
it first the way I said it, because it kind

974
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,039
of skipped past me. That's actually funnier if we just

975
00:45:27,079 --> 00:45:29,840
have an intern that holds the whiteboard note inroom held

976
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,559
held drag race boys, I go back down. I actually

977
00:45:32,599 --> 00:45:35,960
like the intern idea better. Could you bring that in? Please?

978
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:36,440
Thank you?

979
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,199
