We left New Orleans or whatever time my name was
Super European, Super Chatty, Oh boy Super.
Speaker 4: It was at like one in the morning.
Speaker 2: Uh huh, that's fine whatever. I could understand a little bit.
Speaker 4: What were y'll chatting about?
Speaker 2: Just his life?
Speaker 4: His life?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was selfish.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was just telling you his life story.
Speaker 2: Yeah, how he ended up in the States and how
he ended up in Louisiana and manytimes. You think he's
gone over that story A bunch a bunch.
Speaker 4: Probi every person that gets in his car a.
Speaker 2: Bunch nice guy, super nice guy, I'm.
Speaker 4: Sure, but like Surgey or something like that.
Speaker 2: Very close to something, very close to that, because I remember,
Oh my gosh, I was I'm gonna look it up.
I gotta look it up because it was too Europe.
Did he ever ask you about yourself? Yeah? He didn't.
He didn't really understand because he asked me after found
out what he did for a living, like what I did,
and he'd like he didn't really understand, Like, so he
talked sports into a microphone. This is a viable job opportunity.
Speaker 4: What is it?
Speaker 5: Is this real?
Speaker 4: He's like, my country is always at war, So I
don't know. I don't know what country is from, but
Eastern Europe, Europe always has something going on.
Speaker 2: Where was he from one of the ones that borders Ukraine?
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, so he's right in it, yeah, Dolph.
Speaker 2: Where was his position on it? Oh yeah, I think so.
I think where he landed? Yeah? Different? Yeah, I don't
know where to buy Romania and Ukraine shouts to shout
to uh, like I better made.
Speaker 5: I bet it made the drive feel like no Tom did.
Speaker 3: It helped got to put the headphones on. Brother, your
fads are in fo fought through the airpot right, ye.
Speaker 4: Just two am in the car.
Speaker 2: Yeah tough.
Speaker 4: Was he jacked?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah makes sense. Yeah, look like he was makes sense.
Yeah he was part of the organize organized crime situation probably,
but that's not real anymore. Twenty six. That's true. It's
all good unorganized crime. Yeah. So I just feel back
because we landed late anyways, but then there wasn't a
gate agent or something they like. We came out like
we got one gate agent in the in the airport
currently to be able to help us with the jet bridge.
And yeah, some rule point seventy six says that they
can only do one at a time and something or whatever.
I was like or whatever, it's already so late. It
doesn't really matter. I told you all. Kella Moore was
on our flight and he had all thirty seven of
his children shout out to him. He's part of the group.
They looked like they were pretty ready to get home. Yeah. There,
it's about that time, and I and I feel for that.
I could I could feel that pain. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Any hiccup on travel with the children, yeah is uh,
it is highlighted.
Speaker 2: It's like it's a hiccup on steroids. And to that point,
travel had been great because there was like twenty people
on this huge airplane. Yeah stretch.
Speaker 3: Everybody had like their own row. It was great to
that point. And that one you are a little too
happy affair is that one gate agent. It was like
twelve forty five, so there couldn't have been that many planes.
Speaker 2: There's three he told us three. Okay, I got it.
So there's three. Were third in line. They have to
clear one and two before were we made it? We
made it? You did man, Well, uh, kudos to you
for making it in this morning.
Speaker 3: Certainly I don't know if I don't know if either
one of us would have decided to come in after
that kind of travel, but you did it.
Speaker 2: That's why you're a fearless leader. Well, like I had
to redeem myself a lead from the front yesterday I
was getting we did, but you might have got it back.
I was getting slandered because.
Speaker 3: Of your travel struggles and making it in today and
suffering through an hour long uber conversation. You might have
earned your title to fullback back instead of running back.
Speaker 2: Thank you. Yeah, it's until. Yeah, I'm good. I'm good.
This coffee is going to do a lot of a
lot of wonders for me this morning.
Speaker 3: All right, well, enough of this small talk. Tell us
about the owner's meeting. There's a lot to get to.
Speaker 2: Me about something y'all did here that was going to
get us all in trouble. I don't know, do we
do anything.
Speaker 5: We didn't moon talk yesterday?
Speaker 4: There was moon talk the parody pages maybe, but you
know the fake pages on Twitter that a news.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, their fans actually they listen, Yeah.
Speaker 2: Listeners of the show love me. Oh yeah, you got
time to Yeah. So I saw somebody kept tagging me
and stuff and like I've missed something here, and I
was afraid to ask what I miss I was like,
they'll tell me tomorrow morning.
Speaker 4: We were talking about them, okay, yeah, we decided to stop.
Speaker 2: Yeah all right, okay, yeah you got added Yeah because
well somebody you got.
Speaker 5: You got added in it from Tyler Daegel shut out Tyler.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, all right. I didn't really know what it meant,
but I knew I meant something you.
Speaker 5: Met tll Nope, nobody has Okay, all last.
Speaker 2: Year in the break feels like there's a lot here.
All last year in the break, j GBT has met
owners owners meetings. Uh, very cool event, very cool. Now
this year there wasn't like a hot button topic on
the on the docket. Push was on there, so there
was nothing that was like earth shattering like on side
kick stuff that doesn't really matter because well no special
teams matter, you know me. But it was like, well,
you can on side kick anytime. Now It's like okay,
but I still got to tell them I'm on side
kicking because there's a new formation. So there's no surprise
on kicks. I think six percent success rate yep on
on side kicks last couple of years, so six percent
actually feel like that's hot. It was twenty three percent
when there was surprise on the side kicks. Well, of
course I do miss that part. I don't know. I
just tuned out.
Speaker 3: During the kickoff and for the most part I think
it's I don't know, it just doesn't ad anything to
the game.
Speaker 2: It's just you might let's just start him on the
twenty five. Every time learned a little bit better now
that they make they kind of make them return it.
But yeah, so well, the good part about their not
being a lot there and having to talk about that,
and we couldn't talk about the officials. Of course, they
were kind of like the NFL is pretty like, hey, no,
but you know the potential they're being replaced in refs.
You do it now? Oh yeah, we can talk about
it all we want. We talked about it on air.
We shouldn't ask a coach, our GM or president or
an own or whatever. But because there wasn't that, it
was good because we got a chance really just to
ask the coaches about their their roster and like their
players and free agents and draft and so it was.
It was good. It was good. We caught up a
lot of different people, a lot of head coaches, a
lot of gms. Matt Ryan, who's our draft class and
now is the president of an NFL team. They made
that position for him, didn't they? Yeah? What what what
is he he's president of football? I think he's president
of football operations? Yeah for him? Yeah? Did you call
him mister president? I gave him some hell for it, Okay,
I did, I did, for sure. Did. I saw a
lot of people that remember you and like you do
what with who? But who? That guy Mike? Mike did
make some comment about he does it every day in
the morning.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, they knew I was in the
morning person up in Green Bay. How is old mister
Mike McCarthy doing.
Speaker 2: He's good. He was good, you could tell. And so
having conversations with you and and and you know Scott
Tolzy that know him very well. I told him. I
was like, man, they talk about how much you love
Pittsburgh and how proud you are from being from there,
and you can tell like he appreciated that. And uh,
he went into some of y'all's times, you know in
Green Bay and and y'all's teams and but more just
how excited he was. And uh, my co host asked
about Aaron and now he didn't say him by name,
but you know, he found a way to and it
does sound like Aaron's coming back. So how so he
didn't say him by name. He's like, you got a quarterback,
you got pretty far familiar with that. It's pretty familiar
with the place you're coaching now. And you know, he
kind of did it that way, and he said, he's like, no,
I'm in I'm in constant communication with him. We talked,
we talk every week. Yeah, I think a great relationship.
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, I'm sure they've been in contact for since
they split in Green Bay. Yeah, uh, but yeah, I
know the reports of I read a report I think
two days ago about Aaron Rodgers if he's coming back
or not, and like something that he wanted thirty million
or something to come back because I think he played
what do he played for last year?
Speaker 2: Thirteen million dollar contract something like that.
Speaker 3: Which is like obviously far below what a starting quarterback makes,
and even thirty million dollars is still far below what
the average quarterback makes.
Speaker 2: So I don't know.
Speaker 3: Hopefully they can get it worked out. That'd be fun
to see those two back together.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: The only thing you can think of is like, man,
I'd hate for him to get back together and it
not work. It kind of like tarnishes the memory that
they had to when they were together in Green Bay.
But that's the only thing you can think of. But
I don't think either one of them really.
Speaker 2: Care about that, Like yeah, it's just like no, we're
it's gonna get back together. The division really hitting reset
to the new coaches with the Ravens, Steelers and Browns
say he did in the division.
Speaker 3: And the Steelers gut was Michael Pittman, right, Yeah, and
so they got they got Pittman, they got DK I
mean they Rico.
Speaker 2: Dell as well, which I think is I mean because
Mike had him in Dallas. Yeah, I'd like to run
that back with Rogers. Yeah, they got a pretty good opportunity.
Speaking of Cleveland, So I don't I think most LSU
fans will remember this. So Todd Mounkin was on the
staff and five and six here, he's a receivers coach.
I had a great conversation with him. They had like
this little Monday night thing for all everybody that's there,
like this big party outside, you know, great food, music, whatever.
But I had a great conversation with him, telling old
stories about LSU players. We talked Debo and Buster Davis
and just you know all these guys and we talked,
you know, told him that you and I were doing
the show together. So it was a good catching up
with him. But I say, coach, like you weren't in
the picture, like you know, the picture that everybody has
to be a part of, and like kind of is
like the biggest deal of owners and meetings now because
people like to have fun and break it down. He
was like, yeah, because it was on the schedule for
this time. I just got back from Vegas. Me and
my wife were there on vacation. Before we came here,
my hair looked a mess. So for the picture, I
want to go get a haircut right up the road.
Because they said the picture was going to be at noon,
this is at eleven thirty. They decided to go early.
So I missed the first picture. I had an opportunity
to be in. He goes hope. I last year number two,
get it. So he missed the team picture. He's not
in this photo. Come on, monk, because he was getting
a haircut for the team picture.
Speaker 3: We said yesterday that this picture looks like an advertisement
for untuck it.
Speaker 2: Holy Blue Shape Shape. Oh my gosh, I didn't. So
this is the first time I'm really even seeing it.
He just he told me that that he missed it.
Plastic Andy Reid with this Waiian shirt. Yeah, good for you.
I mean, never changed. Put the dumbbells down, Mike McDonald.
I mean like this guy's trying to look like he's swollen.
Speaker 3: But yeah, like you need another shirt to kind of
get your belly poppy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they had they still the shirts on Instagram. T
bobbysed to always get hooked in on it looks like.
Speaker 5: Down before in his life until this moment awkward.
Speaker 2: He rave too. They both kind of have the same stance.
You Know who I really really liked was Liam Cohen.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he was like he's not cool, but like he kind.
Speaker 2: Of in person though, like when you talk with him
kind of it. Yeah, he's got a great it kind
of it kind of shades. He had a d Oar
shirt that he had Okay, okay, Leo. He had a
little bit juice to him, so I I enjoyed our
conversation with him.
Speaker 5: I do like the McDonald's shirt too, just the just
the Navy T shirt, big deal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's uh, he's he's fun to have a conversation with.
He he's a Georgia guy, went to Georgia coach under
Kirby when he first got out of school. He's younger
than us. There's too many people in this photo that
are younger than us.
Speaker 3: But I got a question, now, was there any bad
energy or did you notice between this guy and this guy?
If you remember after the Packers, Floyd the Bears, Ben Johnson,
mattl Floor had this really awkward hands the Bears beat
the Packers and like really awkward handshake, and it was like, Wow,
didn't really know there was beef there. But apparently Ben
Johnson just wants all the smoke from everybody in his division.
Speaker 2: So I'll say this, Ben Johnson is that guy all
the time, super intense or super super intense and like,
I mean, look at his face. Yeah, I don't know
that you can get him looks like off of that
the tissue massage, you know. Yeah, every other coach shop
that we talked with had a different vibe, like all
of them. Now we didn't have Jim, we had John Harball,
we'd have Jim. Jim's a little different, but Jim's, you know,
great personality. So Lafloor, McVeigh, Shanahan like that whole coaching tree.
They hung together, Okay you know what I'm saying. Like
they like they were hanging out by the food together,
they were hanging out the party together. Clickie. Yeah, because
it's like high school, they've been together for multiple places.
They fall under the same coaching trees. They didn't want
else a small talk with Ben Johnson over here. I
think so one in the circle. I don't think mc
veay's in this picture either. I think there's only thirty
coaches in this because I don't see me. Well, they
need to do.
Speaker 3: They need to stay on schedule. Yeah, coaches are always
getting mad at players for not being a schedule.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well apparently they took this picture out of schedule.
They did. They took it about thirty minutes before it
was on the schedule.
Speaker 3: There's one guy I don't recognize at all, Okay, point
to I mean, there's a couple of people that Joe
Brady was great. Every time he walked by me. He said,
go Tigers every time, Joe. There's a couple of guys
that I don't know if I can name you their name.
This guy here.
Speaker 2: That is your head coach for the Miami Dolphins. Yes,
that was like Green Bay Packer, defensive coordinator, got it, athlete,
got it? Okay? Anybody else?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know him. This guy shouldn't be
a head coach.
Speaker 2: But what do act? Taylor? No, no cubes this QBA? Yeah,
oh yeah, that's right. Mhm. Jesse Minner, Jesse Minner. Okay,
that was the other Ravens Todd bulls him. That's Todd Bowles.
That does not look like Todd Bowles. Yeah, okay, he
was my coach for a couple of weeks as well.
That does not look like him.
Speaker 5: The two he didn't recognize was one that was his
coach and the other one with the package.
Speaker 2: That's pretty good though, that's all y'all. Gotta admit.
Speaker 3: That does not look like I mean, looks a little
looks a little frumpy.
Speaker 2: Yeah he does.
Speaker 5: He does look significantly fatter in that picture than I
thought he was.
Speaker 2: Oh is that right there? That's that's a reporter for ESPN.
I think that is uh, look at the picture. I'll
give you a look at the picture. Okay, Yeah, I
don't know. It's Little Flora's brother. The Arizona Cardinals. I
did find out, okay, break, but I did find I
did find out. So like the GM's like head coaches,
some good the GMS, I knew, you know, twenty five
of them off the top of my head. There was
something I'm like, oh yeah, okay, so the Jets GM
Darren Moojie comes over. I'm having a conversation. I'm like, okay,
it's got what I cannot like, I can't place him.
I'm like, I know you. I don't know where from.
I know you somewhere in the league we crossed paths,
but I can't I can't place it, okay, And then
finally I asked him to say, hey, where were you? Like,
where were you before? He goes to it and he goes, yeah,
he goes, well, early, super early in my carew was
in Denver. I said, I'm pretty sure you cut me
in Denver. He was the groom. I'm sure you were
the turk. He goes, I was wondering when you were.
Speaker 5: Gonna ask, so Jake fault him right there.
Speaker 2: Oh, so we both started dying laughing on there. He goes, man,
I saw you over here, and like I confirmed. I
was like, oh, yeah, that's Tesser. He's like, that definitely
was a turk in twenty thirteen in Denver.
Speaker 3: What do you call it? What do you call it
the turk? I don't know what that means. I don't
really know either, but that's what we always called him.
I never heard that one. We always just called it
the grim Reapert. Yeah yeah, And he started laughing. So
like he's like, I was nervous. I knew you're gonna
bring it up. I didn't know when I didn't know
how it's so fun. I was like, no, I said,
the only thing I'm mad about is I am old enough.
Where you were the guy that came around the locker room,
cut people and drove him to the airport, and now
you're a GM Yeah yeah, can you can you come
come to the offices, Uh bring your place book.
Speaker 2: Mine was even worse. He called me at midnight because
I told Jos when von Miller got suspended, that came
down the wire. They they it was gonna get released
that next morning early. They knew. They found out right before,
woke me up at midnight to do it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Darren, I had a buddy that got Grim Reaper
came and got him in the packer locker room mid season.
I just beat him three games in around ping pong,
and they came and got him at the ping pong table.
I just spiked it right in his face too. Grim
Reaper knocks on the door. Yeah that afternoon veteran player. Yeah, okay,
so we got his year salary. Then he might have
been m might have been his third he got. He
ended up getting getting us four, but he wasn't there yet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, my McCarthy was like, he's like that team was
really close. He's like sitting in Bakatiari and Flora Goo. Oh,
all those fools are going to Talladega here coming up.
He goes, you gotta be me. Yeah, he didn't. He
didn't just say he's ad it. Uh uh, Nope, somebody's
letting those guys on the loose. You should see his
face day. He's like, are you serious them? He's like
that correct, They're gonna let them in talented. It's so funny,
like the names. He went down and I was like,
I'm pretty sure all those guys are together. They get together.

with go flow iv spot Go flow iv dot com.
Speaker 2: All right, well, one of the things at owners meetings
that I think you'll appreciate, Matthew. So every coach that
came on, you know, we'd start the conversation with the
free agency, the roster, their draft bar blah blah blah,
and then we're like, all right, well because typically they
go from there to a Pro day or they just
came you know, that's and it's just like a stop
between pro days. And we were asking coaches like, all right,
how many Pro days you've been to, and like they'd
either hold up the zero or they just shake their
head like we're on air. You can say it, because
we're gonna say it. You're right. I mean, it was
shocking Liam Cohen hadn't been to a pro day. I
think Dan Quinn said he hadn't been to a Pro day.
I mean, it just go down the list.
Speaker 3: How many coaches had gone to and again we're talking
you're talking head coaches, head coaches, which are usually just
they're gonna be reserved to go in and seeing like
maybe the top.
Speaker 2: Guys at they're eyeballing. Yeah, And there was a GMS
that were like, nah, you know, we are a scouting department.
And to a man, they said something that I loved
they said we're getting back to trusting the tape and
not chasing things. I was like, oh, like it's supposed
to be.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, so you're gonna draft them to play football,
so you're just gonna go to watching them play football instead. Yes,
And now now the numbers are the numbers, and they
probably need the numbers, get it. They'll get the data,
but they don't need to They don't need to go
necessarily with what they're saying is they don't need to
themselves have a guy go past the eyeball test make
sure the muscles are popping.
Speaker 2: And they were like, look, the school's gonna set it
up and it's going to be a perfect script for them,
and you know it's it's not going to behoove us
to really be there and to and to see that.
Like he's like, even if we want to, like we
can get clips and you know, highlights from the pro day. Ye. Anyways,
but when they said like we're going back to trusting
the tape and the Seahawks, their head coach is like,
I'm not going to combine next year. Oh I'm not
going to combine. Like there's teams that don't do it.
And I understand why it's like that part too. He's
like if he said he said, if he said if
we like you, if we like you, we're gonna bring
you in on a thirty visit. He said, we're gonna
use every thirty visit that we have, And he said,
we've got a tier system of thirty visits for first
round or second rounders all the way down to u DFAs.
So it was interesting to hear everybody does like they
weren't the only team. They're like the Rams, the Jags. Nope,
it's like, stop going to these events, and almost almost
almost like they were saying that they don't want to,
like we always talk about chasing ghost things that aren't there.
They don't want to either get too excited because of
what they saw there or make their final verdict in
a guy based off something he's doing at a PADS.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, the the thought is sound, and it's
it's certainly a knee jerk reaction to the way it's
always been in the way that everybody is comfortable feeling
with the off season and the pre draft process because
the combines, the combine, like that's what you look forward to,
that's what that's the end all be all of in
like invitations you can get as a college athlete before
you go to the NFL. So to hear a head
coach for one of the thirty two teams that these
kids are going for a super Bowl champions team the
super Bowl channel, like, I'm just not going to go.
I don't think it's well, I'm not I'm not putting
words in his mouth here, but like it feels like
he's saying it's not important to us to do that
because of going back to the tay, which is what
we're always like. I think every person immedia is like that,
like why is this guy falling so much? Why is
this guy jumping so much? But it's also there to
showcase guys that might not be on that invite list
that he's talking about, Like if we like you, we're
gonna invite you to come do a workout or we're
going But like, but they also do have the too,
they have their scouts and you have to.
Speaker 2: One team president told us those guys get paid. He's like,
at some point in football it changed where their opinion
didn't carry as much weight, And he said, I don't
know why. He's like, we spend a lot of time
and effort putting together our scouting department, right, and they
do the work for like eight or nine months, and
it's all they do. And he said, all of a sudden,
people that haven't been doing it for eight or nine
months come in and take it over. He said, make
that make sense, right, and that that points to me.
I was like that, and I get a head coach
doesn't need to be doing that.
Speaker 3: But if the GM, the GM, to your point, shouldn't
be taken over at the the last second and making decisions.
The GM should be out there going to the combine.
But what I'm saying, like it's a little slippery soap though,
when you have head coaches saying I'm not going to
do this or we are not going to do the
combine because the combine is there because it brings numbers,
It brings excitement and ultimately brings money to NFL network,
to ESPN, to everything.
Speaker 2: Like that's why they do it.
Speaker 3: That's why they don't like teams just don't hold their
own workouts and invite people because it brings money. Yeah,
So like if you bring some of that excitement away,
it loses the allure.
Speaker 2: It loses the.
Speaker 3: Grandeur of the combine because teams are not going, then
that's gonna go away, and then there's gonna guys that
don't get the opportunity to go show. Because it does
help some people, right, it absolutely does help some people
highlight their I guess their.
Speaker 2: Hope is probably that those numbers and those clips are
gonna get out there anyways, and them being there is
not going to take away from it. Maybe it does
to your point, right, I mean, even though it could
be Slipper was asleep during the combine, right, I got it.
Head coach is still I mean head coaches.
Speaker 3: I mean unless the head coaches acting like a GM
position has a lot of say kind of like a
Belichick Dady of Elichick's famous for being there with binoculars
and popcorn and all the good all the good stuff.
Speaker 2: I just found it interesting, and that's very I do
like to part like where they are going back to
the tape, like at the end of the day, that
should be the most important thing, and then the other
stuff should fill in the gaps. The other stuff should
be they can't fill in the gaps if you're not there.
We still get the numbers though, and then for them,
Like they even like the Senior Bowl because they can
have those meetings that we're thinking about too. You know
what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: Those guys just like to get together, drink whiskey and
eat steak. That's why I was a little bit surprised.
I was like, guys, I thought that was like bro tip,
I thought, that's what y'all do, Like, that's the reason
you go to these That's that's.
Speaker 2: What up all. So I don't know, maybe they hate fun.

Speaker 2: All right, welcome backin o TV here love from raising
Kine Sho. So, I know I missed Moon Talk when
I walked in today there was Yeah, the Artemis two launch.
Was that shuttle? We're calling that rocket space rocket? I
mean yeah, it's a space structure that's a shuttle. Right, Yeah,
we got out. This is the live it does it
look like the one I've seen in Apollo thirteen. Yeah,
so I was hoping I was hoping that this would launch.
Speaker 5: It's not landing, it's just orbiting, so it's probably it's
pretty different.
Speaker 3: Yeah all right, So I was hoping this was launch
during the show today. But as you can see, team
minus nine hours forty three minutes at six thirty three
this morning Central time, they gave the go. There's a
lot of different like countdown situations. What happened for the
artimists two?
Speaker 5: You said you gave the go to start loading before
the show. Yeah, sitting there for ten hours?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3: So launch team decides go or no go at ten
hours fifty minutes. This is this is NASA, okay, So yeah,
there the moon situation. They're orbiting the moon.
Speaker 2: Amazon situation.
Speaker 3: So they're going around the Moon, okay, and they're testing
a lot of their emergency response systems to hopefully get
back landed on the Moon in twenty twenty eight. And
this is the first space travel into high space since
nineteen seventy three. I believe I read we read yesterday.
Speaker 2: Question YEP in the year of our lowerd twenty twenty six.
And if we landed on the moon fifty plus years ago,
we can't just be like we're gonna go land on
the Moon. You must not have been listening to the show,
that's my question exact. Well, well, we decided that we
didn't land on the Moon. Yeah, that's why I got
tagged on social media tagged Oh no, no, not that, no,
not that. I forgot to ask about that during the break,
And I'm saying, like I got tagged about moon talk. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well there was a couple of things we discovered
that meteors hit the Moon. Why there's craters going forty
five thousand miles an hour at least.
Speaker 2: One and sixty pound sixty thousand miles an hour.
Speaker 3: And we were wondering, like how in space where there's
like you know, no gravity or anything, like, how things
are moving that fast but there's gravitational pools. Yeah, so
obviously it's coming towards the Earth. There's no atmosphere to
burn it up on the Moon, so it hits it.
Speaker 2: And I was right. We looked it up yesterday. I
googled it. I was right. I got some weird looks,
some side eyes. Yesterday.
Speaker 3: I was like, aren't we always seeing the same side
of the Earth or the same side of the Moon.
We've never seen like the backside of the moon and
it does orbit. I was right, Well, I always see
the thing.
Speaker 5: It's kind of been brought up a lot, like the
whole dark side of the moon thing, like, I feel
like that's reference.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but yesterday you're like, no, dude, it spoons.
Speaker 5: Yeah I remember, I remember that. I must have blacked
out at that point.
Speaker 2: See. I need Michigan Troll to look a little bit
more like the movies. We'll see they got this is
like some cubicles and the people in there some storage stuff. Yeah,
they still got nine out. I need to look more
like the movies where everybody's got stadium seating and there's
one big screen, everybody sweating a little bit. It's like,
does ac notework in that room? There's just that much pressure.
So true.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So we always see the same side of the
moon because the moon is tidally locked. Okay, it rotates
on its axis and the same amount of time it
takes the UH takes to orbit the Earth, so approximately
twenty seven point three days. I mean, it's rotational speed
matches it's orbital speed. So we always see just one
side of the moon. So brought up a question yesterday,
Let's see if you can answer this.
Speaker 2: All I can. I'm just singing bad Moon Rising in
my head over there because.
Speaker 3: I'm just and I guess we're not supposed to be
moontalk before eight am. I got it, but it did
bring some questions because meteorites hit it, which great craters
which we know the Earth is happeninged craters, right, we
see them. And I don't know enough about how things
move extremely high rates of speed forty five thousand to
one hundred and sixty thousand miles an hour in space.
Speaker 2: It terrifying.
Speaker 3: But I would assume that it involves gravitational pools. So
if meteors are getting pulled to the Earth, okay, right,
and they hit the Moon and we're always seeing the
same side of the Moon, it's always facing Earth, right,
how are their meteors on that side, the side that's
facing us?
Speaker 5: You mean the craters?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm sorry, we talked about this, dude.
Speaker 5: I think it's dense just on the backside.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it just hits the back craters afront.
Speaker 4: Well, the craters I think are also like those lava
tubes or whatever that they were saying yesterday.
Speaker 2: They're not just like from impact.
Speaker 4: I feel like I read something.
Speaker 3: Hold on, So, if meteors are coming towards her, scary
stuff out there, why did this particular mission interest you? Well,
because it's because it's big news first time in nineteen
seventy three. We're ordered in the moon pala But what
are we going to gain from it? Oh, we're gonna
set up we're going to set up a base there
and then we're gonna get to Mars.
Speaker 2: Do you not want the human race to the bases later?
Speaker 4: The bases later?
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but we got to start somewhere.
Speaker 4: Right, So I think they're just testing right now.
Speaker 3: We didn't decide like how you can build a base
on the moon though, and also survive meteors Pepper in
the moon at forty five thousand miles an hour.
Speaker 2: No, we did you go?
Speaker 4: You build it under the under the surface.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, that's right in the lava tude.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're right, not scary at all to be up there.
For what it's worth, the Matt, twenty five thousand people
are watching this, so it is kind of a big deal.
Speaker 2: And that's just that one.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it's and it's ten hours out.
Speaker 2: It is a big deal. It's absolutely a big deal.
I didn't know why this one mission was maybe more
interesting to you than others.
Speaker 5: Because something that the movie, well like I feel like they.
Speaker 2: Send stuff to Mars, and I know you know, well
that's but this is man, right, this is a man.
So they're very disappointed in this. Yeah, it's like this
is this ain't gonna spice up? Yeah, right here, like
it's gonna look like a movie. I wanted to look
like a movie, like like glorious cabinet right here that
she got all the stuff on right now? Like that
does not look very movie.
Speaker 5: Yeah, where's the where's the war room at?
Speaker 2: Sorry about it? American flags? Four of them?
Speaker 6: Uh?
Speaker 2: There are? There is one Canadian going in the mission.
Speaker 5: Which why did they get.
Speaker 6: To go that?
Speaker 2: Like Constellation for losing in the stuff got there and
pretty much everything sport Yeah, played against the US. Yeah,
it's an olive branch all right, now, feel educated? Thank you?
So are they landing on the Moon? Jake?
Speaker 4: Yes, No, they're not landing, but later they're getting information.
Speaker 2: I thought you meant like at the end of the.
Speaker 4: Day they're going to land on Earth. They're not gonna right, But.
Speaker 2: I thought your question was after they orbit collect the
data that they need, can we do it again or maybe?
Speaker 3: But your question was absolutely sound. There is the technology
is there to land on the moon. Apparently because we've
done it right with your technology on the pocket calculator
in that rocket ship. Yes, the technology is better now.
You should just be able to go and land on it.
Speaker 5: It should take you like an hour, should go up
there back. Yeah, it's a day trip, dude.
Speaker 2: VERSI doro a hole on that thing. All right, we'll
be back more OTV brought to you by Hood Dental Care.
