Speaker 1: Hey, folks, back after a bit of a hiatus. Everything
Speaker 1: is a bitch Episode number forty three. A Mike, He's
Speaker 1: aj thank god, we haven't done it in a while.
Speaker 1: We got a lost to walk about.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes we do.
Speaker 3: I've been getting a lot of itre some some listeners
Speaker 3: have chimed up, hey, when are you doing this again?
Speaker 3: I said, well, Mike's been crazy busy with this AI
Speaker 3: business of his, and you were traveling a lot, so, uh,
Speaker 3: you know, we just couldn't get it done.
Speaker 2: But here we are.
Speaker 1: Well, here we are, and okay, my first question for you.
Speaker 1: You really just walking down the street and there's a
Speaker 1: huge freaking coyote on the side.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean I've seen it before.
Speaker 3: I saw it in burd Bank it happened years back,
Speaker 3: but this one was like the one in Burnbank was
Speaker 3: thann looked sick. I saw it in Illinois quite a bit,
Speaker 3: but not here. This is crazy in North Hollywood because
Speaker 3: it's not really that close to any hills. It's a
Speaker 3: decent walk for coyote to come out of a hill
Speaker 3: in the valley or could it out of the park.
Speaker 2: We have a big park next to me.
Speaker 3: But yeah, on its chest just chilling out. I wasn't
Speaker 3: scared of it. I know you can't feed them and
Speaker 3: stuff like that, but I did.
Speaker 2: I had, you know, I threw.
Speaker 3: I threw some from raw bacon, and then I had
Speaker 3: some pasta and left over for the night before.
Speaker 2: It devoured the pasta with sausage and red sauce.
Speaker 3: And then, uh, last night I heard one of my neighbors,
Speaker 3: the old lady, said that because it came back again
Speaker 3: the next day, three days in a row. Yeah, three
Speaker 3: days in a row. But I only felt the one time,
Speaker 3: I know, but uh, she told me that it may
Speaker 3: have been a dog at the park, and so I
Speaker 3: don't know if that's true. But it's been risking to
Speaker 3: rain here the next four days, so I don't know
Speaker 3: where it's gonna be. Yeah, it's shitty out. It's been
Speaker 3: raining all day yesterday and today, so it's gone for now.
Speaker 2: But they're not really scary, but you know, they can
Speaker 2: tell your part they want to. But they look like
Speaker 2: a small German shepherd. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they love to go after the little dogs. But
Speaker 1: we used to, you know, we used to get them
Speaker 1: back before they read did Lakeside and there were yeah,
Speaker 1: all these little foresty areas inside of the golf court.
Speaker 1: We used to they used to be walking across the
Speaker 1: freaking golf course all the time. And yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: like those things.
Speaker 2: Did nasty then nasty, but I just felt that I
Speaker 2: love it.
Speaker 4: Animal an Italian meal, A hungry animal.
Speaker 3: Eating Italian food. I couldn't pass it up. I said,
Speaker 3: if he eats it, I got a story. If he doesn't,
Speaker 3: you know who cares. So of course he ate it.
Speaker 2: Dude.
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any food you could throw in
Speaker 1: the direction of coyote that the coyote would not eat.
Speaker 1: I can't imagine what it would be sort of be
Speaker 1: the ultimate food, you know, taste test is what food
Speaker 1: is shitty enough that a coyote.
Speaker 2: Board would right?
Speaker 1: I don't know what that would be.
Speaker 3: Well, when Rosevean and Jack got their house in Illinois,
Speaker 3: you have to get the because a lot of people
Speaker 3: like that on fence. It's remarkable Midwest how you can
Speaker 3: have six seven in houses in a row.
Speaker 2: Now one house is a backyard fence. Crazy.
Speaker 3: I mean, I kind of like it, but it's weird.
Speaker 3: So they got a fence to protect the dogs. But
Speaker 3: you got to get the roll bar on top because
Speaker 3: coyotes will jump up and granpa Yorkies. But that roll
Speaker 3: bar makes it hard efident to get over the fence.
Speaker 3: But yeah, there they're out there. I wouldn't up with
Speaker 3: a mountain lion. Now, mountain lion scared the shit out
Speaker 3: of me that you know, I would never get out
Speaker 3: of the house at all.
Speaker 2: But there was a mountain lion on the corner. Those
Speaker 2: are scary.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I told you a few months ago. I had
Speaker 1: the weird experience here. I mean I didn't even know
Speaker 1: they were here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't think she'll be doing it.
Speaker 1: And I'm walking through my neighborhood, which isn't I mean,
Speaker 1: we're in the middle of Jupiter.
Speaker 4: It's I didn't get a city.
Speaker 1: I mean, I didn't know this story.
Speaker 2: It was a mountain lion in the neighborhood.
Speaker 1: Well there, what's a uh uh cougar? Well, they all
Speaker 1: have the same.
Speaker 2: I don't know, a.
Speaker 4: Puma.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's kind of the same thing, aren't they.
Speaker 1: Well, I think they are all the same thing, aren't they.
Speaker 1: Mountain tumauh. There's something with cat in the name of it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think these are all the same freaking thing or
Speaker 1: darn clouds.
Speaker 4: I mean, this was a big ass one.
Speaker 1: Like I've seen little ones in l A, A little
Speaker 1: one once when I was hiking.
Speaker 2: Bobcat. Bobcat, that's right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's Florida panther obviously, Florida panthers and bobcats.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what you got.
Speaker 1: But in California, you know what, when you Griffith Park
Speaker 1: had a bunch of yeah, like cutting through Griffith Park,
Speaker 1: I would occasionally see in Griffith Park of coyotes as well.
Speaker 1: But I'm here, I'm walking in broad daylight. Wow, And
Speaker 1: there's a there's a river that weaves uh through the
Speaker 1: development that I'm in, and I'm going and there's a
Speaker 1: walking trail that goes along the river and cuts through.
Speaker 1: But I usually just walk the streets. So I'm walking
Speaker 1: the streets and there are along the streets there are
Speaker 1: gates that let you go into the more wooded walk
Speaker 1: where you walk around the river and a lake and everything.
Speaker 1: And I just looked to the left and right at
Speaker 1: the gate is a huge bobcat. Wow, who's just just
Speaker 1: looks at me. That's scary, And I'm like, what the fuck?
Speaker 4: I don't think these things are here?
Speaker 1: And I actually wanted to get a better look at him,
Speaker 1: so I took a.
Speaker 4: Few steps toward him. Right, he didn't move it all.
Speaker 1: I mean he could have. He could have jumped over
Speaker 1: that frigging fence and you know, a millisecond. And then
Speaker 1: I look the other direction and I see a lady
Speaker 1: coming with a baby and a stroller, and I'm like, eh,
Speaker 1: that's probably not a good idea, And so I ran
Speaker 1: up to her and I'm like, why don't you go
Speaker 1: to the other side of the street. There's this bobcat.
Speaker 1: But I've never seen another one here. And then I
Speaker 1: went and searched, and they're occasionally spotted, but they're rare.
Speaker 1: It's not like there where you know they're all over
Speaker 1: the place.
Speaker 4: But yeah, freaky stuff. But you don't feed them.
Speaker 2: I know, I know. It was a story.
Speaker 1: And why did you have Italian food with you? I
Speaker 1: mean you no.
Speaker 2: I went back.
Speaker 3: At first, I threw him from rub bacon. He devoured it,
Speaker 3: and then I had I had nothing, I had no
Speaker 3: meat in the house.
Speaker 2: I hadn't shopped.
Speaker 1: He went on to get him food.
Speaker 2: Well that yeah, because he was still rare, so I
Speaker 2: gave him.
Speaker 3: I had last night's pasta was feu zeally with sausage
Speaker 3: and red sauce, and he ate it.
Speaker 2: I threw it a napkin and I brought it out
Speaker 2: to him. He devoured it.
Speaker 4: So specifically went back to death.
Speaker 1: Yes, oh it is, it is. I know this isn't
Speaker 1: politics as a bitch, but there's so much fucked up
Speaker 1: stuff going on.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Now, I haven't had a chance today to see what
Speaker 1: the hell Tucker's talking about about this Thomas Crooks thing
Speaker 1: and this new conspiracy theory about the Trump attempted assassination stuff.
Speaker 1: Did you what's on this?
Speaker 2: No, I haven't heard what did Tucker said?
Speaker 1: Tucker said he was gonna this morning release have a
Speaker 1: special and release information about you know, the FBI withholding
Speaker 1: a bunch of information about Crooks that they said he
Speaker 1: didn't have social media accounts and that they found a
Speaker 1: bunch of social media accounts and connections to foreign governments.
Speaker 1: And Okay, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: There's too much concer. I don't know. I don't think.
Speaker 3: I don't think that I've lost Tucker's lost me, Canda
Speaker 3: Sellan's lost me, and Tucker has kind of lost me lately.
Speaker 3: I don't know what they both are up to. It's
Speaker 3: like they both got infected with the same weird conspiracy virus.
Speaker 3: They just go down these holes and they're both acting
Speaker 3: like everything they say is completely nine ways till Sunday
Speaker 3: checked out. It's all real. People have a little while
Speaker 3: with story. Even Glenn Beck had the big story about
Speaker 3: the pipe bomb. The girl set it down and she
Speaker 3: got a promotion to the CIA. She was a fed
Speaker 3: relagion and it turns out really not to be one
Speaker 3: hundred percent true. A lot of people are jumping the
Speaker 3: gun because we're starved for this. We'll star for Epstein
Speaker 3: News and we starve for more information about trumps sassination attempt.
Speaker 3: There's a few stories out that Charlie Kirk that really
Speaker 3: have no tidy endings, and that's why a lot of
Speaker 3: people and some journalists are going bananas. We want nice
Speaker 3: bows on things, and too many just open.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 1: I think what happens is, you know, you have all
Speaker 1: of these people out in the the pod sphere, you know,
Speaker 1: all these podcasts, I know, and if you're just reporting
Speaker 1: what's happening every day and just reporting it straight, and
Speaker 1: every is regurgitating the same thing, and so they're finding
Speaker 1: out that Well, if I have a scoop on something,
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter.
Speaker 4: If it's true or not.
Speaker 1: If I have the scoop and I'm the first out
Speaker 1: there with it and I can make it, I can
Speaker 1: serve it up in such a way that it's believable,
Speaker 1: it's at least compelling. It gets people talking. Well, why
Speaker 1: wouldn't I because audience eqels revenue, and so the more
Speaker 1: people I get to watch or to listen, the more
Speaker 1: money I'm going to make. And so you have a
Speaker 1: bunch of people who have stepped outside of the realm
Speaker 1: of actually trying to be journalists, just like the cable
Speaker 1: networks step outside the realm of trying to actually be
Speaker 1: news networks. But it just leaves the world with very
Speaker 1: few places to go for trustworthy interpretation of new Yeah,
Speaker 1: what is actual news?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 1: Crazy? I mean where where she's getting her ship? I mean, Tucker, Sorry,
Speaker 1: but I know you don't. You can't have Nick flint
Speaker 1: Day's on your show and not ask him any.
Speaker 2: Questions, right, Yeah, I know that was bad. There's too
Speaker 2: many people out there.
Speaker 3: And you know, when you worked for a newspaper and
Speaker 3: you broke a big story, the paper was recognized. The
Speaker 3: journalist was too, but you didn't reflect in your next paycheck.
Speaker 3: So you just went out there and broke stories. Did
Speaker 3: the best you could.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: But now these people, and I'm one of them, you know,
Speaker 3: you want to make a splash. When I when I
Speaker 3: broke the Jamie Fox story a few years back, I
Speaker 3: couldn't believe I want, I want on Doctor Drew's show,
Speaker 3: and I talked to him about I didn't break on
Speaker 3: his show, but I talked to him about it, and
Speaker 3: he's got such a big audience and people from India
Speaker 3: newspapers in India wanting to comment for me. I never
Speaker 3: saw something blow up that thing, So yeah, it could definitely,
Speaker 3: it could definitely make your head bigger if you have
Speaker 3: a platform like a Canvas or a Tucker where will
Speaker 3: generate money pretty quickly because all the the popularity they have,
Speaker 3: it's it's their month. They are sensationalists more than their journalists.
Speaker 1: You just come.
Speaker 4: You just reminded me of a rabbit hole I went
Speaker 4: down the other night.
Speaker 1: That was the funniest freaking rabbit holes talking about Indian journalists.
Speaker 1: Indian Christmas Carols.
Speaker 2: I've heard the list thing.
Speaker 4: Just go, just go, search it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and try and stop and try and stop listing,
Speaker 1: because the second you hear one, you'll be like, oh,
Speaker 1: I gotta hear him, do right? You know, I got
Speaker 1: to it's coming to town. I mean, you will just
Speaker 1: end up doing at least ten. You're not gonna do
Speaker 1: any less than It's pretty fucking funny.
Speaker 2: They're funny. Yeah. I love when they sing to their dogs.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of that on Instagram where it's an
Speaker 3: Indian guy singing to a dog and it's become a
Speaker 3: meme now.
Speaker 2: People use it everywhere.
Speaker 3: You know, we talked about dogs with such a silly voice,
Speaker 3: but when an Indian person does it, it's just even
Speaker 3: funnier with the way they sound, their accent, trying to
Speaker 3: make a song out of stupid words. It's just I
Speaker 3: know what you mean, get you. It's too funny.
Speaker 2: Hey.
Speaker 3: By the way, how about your buddy and my buddy
Speaker 3: Andy Garcia and Billy Bob Thornton in that scene in.
Speaker 2: Landman the premiere the other night? Did you see this
Speaker 2: scene together?
Speaker 1: I thought it didn't premiere till the sixteenth.
Speaker 2: No. I saw it two episodes yea on what paramount?
Speaker 4: Oh, you watched it on TV.
Speaker 2: What do you mean, how else do you watch it?
Speaker 4: I watch it on the Paramount app. That's what I did.
Speaker 2: That's what I did on Paramount app on TV. But
Speaker 2: I'm through Paramount.
Speaker 1: You know what. They've been advertising like crazy that it
Speaker 1: premieres the sixth, So I didn't think it was going
Speaker 1: to be out there at all until the sixteenth.
Speaker 2: You kidding.
Speaker 1: No, It's all over the place advertising for the sixteenth,
Speaker 1: So I didn't. I didn't bother to look for any
Speaker 1: And I'm desperate because Taylor Sheridan must not have paid
Speaker 1: attention to a single thing they did for Tulsa King
Speaker 1: for this season, because it's the worst acted piece of
Speaker 1: ship in history. I have Stallone's daughter, I'm sorry, fine
Speaker 1: cipher to do.
Speaker 4: She can't act.
Speaker 2: And his wife is a jack producer. I love that move.
Speaker 1: It's terrible.
Speaker 3: They break the law constantly, cops have to show up,
Speaker 3: no one gets arrested everybody.
Speaker 1: You can't believe any of I mean, you can believe
Speaker 1: some of the actors, but uh, and and what's the
Speaker 1: actor's name that was?
Speaker 4: You know?
Speaker 1: In uh?
Speaker 4: A few good men?
Speaker 3: Uh Kevin Pollock there, that's such a miscake.
Speaker 1: You can't put you can cast that guy.
Speaker 2: He's awful the FBI.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 3: I know Kevin Pollock, he's gotten Look, he's been in
Speaker 3: some good movies.
Speaker 2: No, he's very good after I know, but not in that.
Speaker 2: He can't play a heavy FBI guy.
Speaker 3: That didn't look good by the way, You're right, I
Speaker 3: must have caught the last episode of season one. Is
Speaker 3: that when Billy Bob gets beat up like crazy, and that's.
Speaker 1: That, and that's when stallone, stallone.
Speaker 4: I'm on still.
Speaker 1: Andy appears in the very last scene of season one.
Speaker 3: I thought that was season two, episode one. Okay, So
Speaker 3: I saw that one and I thought that was the opening. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 3: great scene, bloody.
Speaker 1: I don't know it's gonna be great. It'd be great.
Speaker 1: I will be, first of all, as bad as Tulsa
Speaker 1: king is. He's as good as Mayor of Kingstown has
Speaker 1: started for the seed. I don't know if you've watched.
Speaker 3: I don't watch that one. That's the is that that
Speaker 3: RENNERM Renner. You you haven't watched any not one episode.
Speaker 1: Oh you got to go back to season one, episode one,
Speaker 1: and oh, it's fucking great.
Speaker 2: I didn't know that. I didn't I didn't hear much
Speaker 2: about it. I'll check it out.
Speaker 3: I didn't like the other one, No, I know, not
Speaker 3: the one you're talking about, Renner. What was that one
Speaker 3: with the girl from Titanic in it?
Speaker 2: Kate Winsley was It wasn't a tailor show with the show.
Speaker 1: Though, But I get them, oh mayor, mayor of Yeah,
Speaker 1: I actually did like that, did you. Yeah? And I
Speaker 1: thought she was. I thought she was very good in it.
Speaker 1: But this, no, this is this is Sheridan Actually he
Speaker 1: he must have said, okay, you guys. Yeah, still, and
Speaker 1: I see this. Salone wrote most of the episodes of
Speaker 1: that season. This season four, season.
Speaker 2: Three, Yeah, this is season three. It's three. I think
Speaker 2: it's three, but you know it's funny. Years ago, Stalloan
Speaker 2: was looking to.
Speaker 3: Do a TV series and we were sitting down with
Speaker 3: a friend of ours and he said, get a j
Speaker 3: to write it.
Speaker 2: A read the pilot for you. So I made a
Speaker 2: deal with Stallone and my friend Richie. I wrote the.
Speaker 3: Pilot about Fish out of Water, Italian guy from New
Speaker 3: York winds up in Beverly Hills running a pizza place.
Speaker 3: That's what we wanted to do, and Stallone said, just
Speaker 3: don't make it too Italian.
Speaker 2: Like not much of it.
Speaker 3: I don't want to be a guinea or a tough guy,
Speaker 3: so no, I no problem. I said it off to him.
Speaker 3: He loved it every which way until he got to
Speaker 3: the end. Then he didn't like it, and it was
Speaker 3: a weird ending. We peated the two of us and
Speaker 3: it didn't work out. Fast forward five six years, maybe
Speaker 3: seven years, and there's Tulsa game, Fish out of Water
Speaker 3: Retalian guy in Tulsa, not Beverly Hills, but I know
Speaker 3: he didn't copy it, but it's still and now he's
Speaker 3: acting completely like a mobster and over the top Italian.
Speaker 2: That's exactly what he didn't want to do. I don't know.
Speaker 4: The walk is ridiculous.
Speaker 3: Well, Slone's got that move where he's always against somebody
Speaker 3: and then he takes the last one step or two
Speaker 3: to get this close to the guy's face. That's his
Speaker 3: move and every movie I've seen enough. I mean, I
Speaker 3: love the guy, but yeah, I could be honest, it's
Speaker 3: not a great show.
Speaker 2: I watch it because I like him, I like Annabella,
Speaker 2: I like that Garret Headland guys with good actor.
Speaker 4: Well other years, other other seasons.
Speaker 1: We're really good. Just when you when you try and
Speaker 1: go too close to home. I think these guys, you know,
Speaker 1: they're all desperate to get their kids work.
Speaker 3: And and but she's just she's not ready.
Speaker 1: Good's not good. And I don't know what else she's done.
Speaker 1: But this was a big role. I thought in the beginning. Okay,
Speaker 1: you made her a bartender. Great for two minutes an episode.
Speaker 1: That's cute. Okay, you did that for your daughter.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: Well, now it looks like now it looks like she's
Speaker 3: gonna have something to do with the black guy. It
Speaker 3: looks like they're having a they're kind of getting tight now,
Speaker 3: throwing parties together.
Speaker 1: Well they they yeah, they had this scam that they're
Speaker 1: running together. But well the other one, so Robert Patrick, Yeah,
Speaker 1: who's the bad guy? Okay, So he lived in uh,
Speaker 1: my neighborhood. His son was same age as as one
Speaker 1: of my sons, with a lot of common friends, right,
Speaker 1: and so I saw him quite a bit, uh in
Speaker 1: the day. And that guy was always well, he was
Speaker 1: always in great shape. Well he did that, he did
Speaker 1: that series that Max Martini did with him.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: The they were all military guys. Oh, it was it
Speaker 1: was like a sealed Team six.
Speaker 2: That's not what it was.
Speaker 1: Called it was thus something right. And I saw him
Speaker 1: a lot during that because Max lived right down the
Speaker 1: street and it was good friends with Matt and and
Speaker 1: so I all of a sudden see him in this,
Speaker 1: and my wife didn't, Jerry, and it's like, that's not Robert, Honey,
Speaker 1: Honey it is. She goes, no, it's not. I go, no, honey,
Speaker 1: it is. She takes a third look and it's like, Mike,
Speaker 1: there's no way, I go, honey, I swear to God
Speaker 1: it is sure to go and google it and show
Speaker 1: her that it is.
Speaker 4: And she's like, oh my god, what I know, what
Speaker 4: the hell happened to the fact.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, oh yeah the unit he was on the unit,
Speaker 3: that's the unit is what it was with Matt.
Speaker 2: He got got, he got old and big. He's very
Speaker 2: imposing looking. Man.
Speaker 1: I'm like, honey, I'm all this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. That's the way it goes.
Speaker 1: Unfortunate things that you think were like two weeks ago,
Speaker 1: we're twenty years ago.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it really is true.
Speaker 1: I mean they literally were twenty years ago, maybe eighteen
Speaker 1: years ago, when when you know, we were seeing seeing
Speaker 1: a lot of them. So, I mean, I know, fat
Speaker 1: and I'm convinced sixty is is the line. Sixty is
Speaker 1: the marker if you don't turn it up to a
Speaker 1: whole other level at sixty. Like, however hard you were
Speaker 1: working out, you better work out twice as hard. I know,
Speaker 1: however much you were watching what you ate, you better
Speaker 1: watch more twice as hard, right, because if not it goes,
Speaker 1: you're done.
Speaker 3: Listen, I make rocco. I you know, I'm always I'm
Speaker 3: good about cooking, saving mine. I saved money here and there. Nowadays,
Speaker 3: if I make him a nice steak, by the time
Speaker 3: I'm done cooking and making sides, I'll have like three
Speaker 3: inches of it and some bunch of broccoli, and that'll
Speaker 3: be my dinner, like you know, the old days would be.
Speaker 3: I got a big steak too. I can't eat like
Speaker 3: that anymore. Rosie's like, when you come by, I'm gonna

Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, no, she and and she's not bad.
Speaker 1: I'm at my I'm at the end with Megan Kelly.
Speaker 1: I'm down with Megan Kelly.
Speaker 3: Now she's too uh is she getting too high school
Speaker 3: for you?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 1: Just well, first of all, this her taking sort of
Speaker 1: Candice Owen's and Tucker's side in this thing against Ben Shapiro. Look,
Speaker 1: the the number one, smartest, most honest, the absolute best
Speaker 1: conservative commentator in America is Ben Shapiro period. And now
Speaker 1: you might not I mean, obviously he's very pro Israel,
Speaker 1: and so you might you might not love you know,
Speaker 1: all the time devoted to that topic and all of that.
Speaker 1: But when it comes to policy, interpreting what's going on
Speaker 1: out there, just depth of knowledge. I mean, the guy's brilliant.
Speaker 2: He's so smart, so smart.
Speaker 1: She tried to like, she tried to like brok her
Speaker 1: a piece between him and Tucker on this episode was
Speaker 1: the most ridiculous thing I do not know. And she
Speaker 1: went to she she thought she was popular enough to
Speaker 1: launch her own network, and that's what they tell everybody
Speaker 1: to do. Get a podcast that that's pop that becomes
Speaker 1: that popular, Well, you need to bring a bunch of
Speaker 1: other people onto your tent. Call it a network, and
Speaker 1: we work out deals with those people where we split
Speaker 1: the revenue that comes in because it's coming off a
Speaker 1: year back, and so you know, this is like you're
Speaker 1: forming your own TV network one hundred years ago.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 4: So she's done that.
Speaker 1: She's got this collection of weird people besides besides Helperan,
Speaker 1: who's good.
Speaker 4: I don't know who these other people are, not.
Speaker 2: The girl, the girl from She has a show called
Speaker 2: The Nerve, the one does the Nerve?
Speaker 1: Who she's the magazine is Aster the Male.
Speaker 2: You know what?
Speaker 1: She's got this this gay guy who's kind of funny.
Speaker 3: But he too many gay guys. Too many pretty women
Speaker 3: bring gay guys on the show. It's it's such a
Speaker 3: common recipe. I don't like it. But Megan has become
Speaker 3: very gossipy high school girl.
Speaker 2: And we didn't see that when she was at Fox.
Speaker 2: We never knew that. Then she gets a daytime talk show,
Speaker 2: a different personality.
Speaker 3: Now she's even she's three deep in terms of personalities
Speaker 3: because this gossip be Megan Kelly. It was first fun
Speaker 3: to hear the cursing. It was shocking to hear her
Speaker 3: let her hair down and say like, he's a fucking asshole.
Speaker 3: You could never thought you'd hear making Kelly talk that way.
Speaker 3: Now I'm hearing it all the time, and it's it's lost.
Speaker 3: It's like when Howard Stern went too serious and everybody
Speaker 3: could curse tell their sex stories that got old in
Speaker 3: a week.
Speaker 2: It was like, I don't want to hear this anymore.
Speaker 2: I can't.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think she's jumped the shark in a couple
Speaker 4: of ways.
Speaker 1: I think she uh, she drops in all these subtle
Speaker 1: stories that let you know how filthy, rich, disgusting her
Speaker 1: lifestyle is. Now, Oh, we were vacationing at in Montana.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can't, No, no, I can't say that. You
Speaker 3: can't let people here talk to you gotta keep that.
Speaker 1: One of the audience wants to freaking regurgitate to find
Speaker 1: out you were on a two week whatever in.
Speaker 4: Montana and you know you had to you just had
Speaker 4: to race.
Speaker 1: Into your Montana studio when this happened, and't get.

Speaker 1: house and we don't want to know about your time
Speaker 1: in the Jersey Shore. We don't want to know about
Speaker 1: your Montana house. We don't want to know about your
Speaker 1: vacation in the audience could give a ship.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't like that.
Speaker 1: Don't you want to think you're freaking normal?
Speaker 4: And you should want them to think you're normal?
Speaker 2: Exactly. Yeah, that's a bad idea.
Speaker 3: I've always said, whenever I see I remember Catherine Zanda
Speaker 3: Jones at one point was on this when she was
Speaker 3: young and beautiful, and she she's on a talk show
Speaker 3: and she turns to the audience and says, if you
Speaker 3: the next time you're in Paris, you must eat, and
Speaker 3: she mentioned she said it was such a straight face,
Speaker 3: And I said, what an idiot.
Speaker 2: You can't talk that way to people. People don't get that.
Speaker 2: Ship not good she was.
Speaker 1: I mean I haven't seen her. I've watched that whichever
Speaker 1: one of the Ocean's movies where she's in it. She was,
Speaker 1: she is, she was just strikingly gorgeous.

Speaker 3: that ever came out with sexual addiction. Yeah, he was

Speaker 2: Think about it?
Speaker 1: Well, unless it's a guys only.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, but yeah I listen.
Speaker 1: But yeah, a co ed, that's actually what a great
Speaker 1: scam idea for. You know, all those rehabs are bullshit anyway, yeah,
Speaker 1: right right right, most of them.
Speaker 3: Well you said a hot you said, you send you
Speaker 3: you a honeypot there and you get the guys all rolled.
Speaker 2: Up again, you know, back to rehab. I'm believing crazy,
Speaker 2: I know, I know.
Speaker 1: So Apparently the latest from my mother is that the
Speaker 1: Italians are now less than fifty percent of the population
Speaker 1: at the club. They've been all here, now they are
Speaker 1: now the minority at the No is it Well, it's
Speaker 1: got to be Jewish, has to be the more predominant. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: I told you this.
Speaker 2: We have to do this, This is the story we
Speaker 2: have to do.
Speaker 1: This is like Caddie Shack three. Yeah, there's this club
Speaker 1: on Long Island, folks. It's been there since you know,
Speaker 1: the early nineteen hundreds and going by nineteen twenties, nineteen thirties,
Speaker 1: and one hundred percent of the membership from its birth
Speaker 1: until the two thousand and five twenty ten. I would
Speaker 1: bring friends eraa's guests, and I would challenge them to
Speaker 1: find a locker.
Speaker 4: That with a name that didn't end in a vow.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: I would joke, you know, the golf carts are black
Speaker 1: with bulletproof glass. I would, because it was all believable,
Speaker 1: because this was, you know, and nobody's there. Weren't doctors
Speaker 1: and lawyers. You were in concrete or you're right, but
Speaker 1: the membership was right, well, they all got old, like
Speaker 1: my father, kids move away, and you know, I was
Speaker 1: a member for a number of years and and then
Speaker 1: moved to California, and so it, uh, there weren't enough
Speaker 1: kids of the Italian members to keep the thing going.
Speaker 1: People were getting old and dying off. And you know,
Speaker 1: the there's a Jewish club down the street, and there's
Speaker 1: a club for the you know, the the Waspy's right
Speaker 1: down the street. Everybody had a club. And that part
Speaker 1: of Long Island, which is the Great neck Manhasset Port, Washington,
Speaker 1: beautiful area right there. We once didn't have a club
Speaker 1: with the Asians, and so that changed. So their club
Speaker 1: made the decision to start taking in Asian members. And
Speaker 1: I mean one became ten, became twenty, became fifty, became
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty, I don't know what. There are
Speaker 1: probably five hundred families that are members of that club,
Speaker 1: so now it's three hundred.
Speaker 2: Wow. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And and my mother is my mother who is not
Speaker 1: at least bit racist. She really isn't. She lives in
Speaker 1: a bubble or her whole life Italians and of course
Speaker 1: around Italians, and so her routine has been disrupted so significantly.
Speaker 1: It's hysterical.
Speaker 3: We got to write this movie. It's such a movie.
Speaker 3: We talked about We had some ideas a few months
Speaker 3: about a year ago. So we were shooting around.
Speaker 1: Just go there for ten minutes, and the idea is
Speaker 1: just fall from the freaking ceiling. This is a place where,
Speaker 1: you know, twenty four to seven, they you know, they
Speaker 1: had Aposta station, right. You know, anytime you walked in
Speaker 1: the club, if you right, you wanted a bowl of
Speaker 1: you know, uh penne alavaka, righto, you had it? Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: now it's you know, miso soup is next to the
Speaker 1: men clock right, So it's nothing crazy, No, it's like it's.
Speaker 2: What happened in New York City. Mulberry Street and Mott
Speaker 2: Street were both Italian streets, and now well not now,
Speaker 2: but Mott Street has become all shiny all and they
Speaker 2: got part of Mulberry now and little literally is down
Speaker 2: to very little, very little Italy. It's most the Asian.
Speaker 2: Same shit's happened.
Speaker 1: How could we not mount enough forces to defend Mulberry Street?
Speaker 1: I mean, is right there? Some things just have to
Speaker 1: be defended to defend Mulberry.
Speaker 2: That's not they just you know what these people.
Speaker 3: My mother was working in the dry cleaners for wonderful
Speaker 3: couple we knew for years.
Speaker 2: White our neighbors, great people, the Garlands, Charlie and June Garland,
Speaker 2: and they had the dry cleaners on Higbee and you
Speaker 2: all union.
Speaker 3: They had to sell because this ch Chinese guy kept
Speaker 3: coming every six months with more money, more money.
Speaker 2: Cash cash. Eventually these people were in the sixties like
Speaker 2: we are now.
Speaker 3: They sold it. They Lily, we got to sell. The
Speaker 3: guy's giving us too much money. We can't turn it down.
Speaker 3: So that happens in Malbourne, they say, they come with
Speaker 3: suitcases of cash.
Speaker 2: These old people never saw money like that.
Speaker 3: And their kids are gone. Like you said, You and I,
Speaker 3: we moved to California. To this people are just leaving.
Speaker 3: But it's funny. I don't go to San Gennaro Feast anymore.
Speaker 3: But when I did go fifteen years ago down literally
Speaker 3: it used to be cut every game.
Speaker 2: It was all mafia. Every booth was a.
Speaker 3: T sausage and peppers. You want some garlic bread, now
Speaker 3: you go, and if you go. I made a joke
Speaker 3: one time. I said it was something like if you
Speaker 3: go to the Russian side of the Chinese neighborhood. In
Speaker 3: made street, you will find a Pakistani man making Italian
Speaker 3: meat balls. It's just not Italian anymore. And it's like,
Speaker 3: who wants to see this? I don't want to see
Speaker 3: this man.
Speaker 4: So my mother says, to my mother's tell me what.
Speaker 1: It's like now, and you know, she she plays Canasta
Speaker 1: and she goes, it's it's okay, even though they they're
Speaker 1: the majority of the club now because Michael, they don't
Speaker 1: play cards. I go, what do you mean? They don't
Speaker 1: play So the Asians don't play cards.
Speaker 2: They're doing in Vegas.
Speaker 1: So so what happens? So the the woman's grill area,
Speaker 1: so there's you know, men's grills, women's grill, everything, freing
Speaker 1: club segregation. Right inside of theoman's grill, there's an area
Speaker 1: with tables for cards, and it's full up with Italian ladies,
Speaker 1: old Italian ladies, playing either gin or Castle.
Speaker 4: And then there's a whole other side of the room.
Speaker 1: I don't know. My mother could not identify what they play.
Speaker 1: They play something, Yeah, I think it may involve dice.
Speaker 1: I don't know what exactly it is. It's probably got
Speaker 1: to go in there with freaking cameras because this is
Speaker 1: the funniest story. What happens on that board has to be.
Speaker 1: I mean the board's now like fifty to fifty, right,
Speaker 1: I know the pro there, Well he's a really nice guy,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure that guy's got a gazillion stories. But
Speaker 1: you talk about I mean just two cultures that clash,
Speaker 1: where a proactive decision is made to just put them.
Speaker 4: Together and let's just see where this goes.
Speaker 2: Let's see what happens.
Speaker 1: And the problem is one is just dying off and
Speaker 1: the others just end of time. One drops, they got
Speaker 1: they got the replacement. No, that will eventually be yeah,
Speaker 1: a Chinese club. They will sign, the sign out front
Speaker 1: will eventually be in Chinese letters.
Speaker 2: I know it's the same.
Speaker 3: You know, it's well, my mother was not a generation
Speaker 3: but yeah, well my mother would have been one hundred
Speaker 3: and something now, so good, good twelve years boing to
Speaker 3: your mom, maybe even maybe thirteen. But you know, we
Speaker 3: came to Long Island from Brooklyn and she was not
Speaker 3: racist at all. But my father definitely had some of
Speaker 3: that in his head. But my mother not at all
Speaker 3: an angel. But she we go to Long River Kitchen,
Speaker 3: the Chinese place along in West on a Friday. My mother, Oh,
Speaker 3: good food, but she will First it was a little joint,
Speaker 3: then it became a restaurant.
Speaker 2: They expanded, but she with the lady was named missus
Speaker 2: Kim and we.
Speaker 3: Said, hi, my mother, Hi Kim. You know it's so hot.
Speaker 3: I didn't want to cook. I said to my son,
Speaker 3: let's just have chinks tonight.
Speaker 2: And I'm the.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: But she, the lady, didn't care. She's probably her. Oh
Speaker 3: that's very nice. Okay, yeah, different world.
Speaker 1: My favorite thing was to hear them. There's certain words
Speaker 1: that they just can't pronounce right, right right. And the
Speaker 1: big thing when you go to a Chinese restaurant is
Speaker 1: you know, are you is everybody ordering for the table?
Speaker 1: And then uh, everybody having a little bit or you
Speaker 1: learn your own thing, And so they would always start
Speaker 1: off with together.
Speaker 4: Or injia visual that's right, you feel like what together
Speaker 4: in visual?
Speaker 2: That's I forgot about that.
Speaker 3: That's gotta be the hardest individual American word they can't
Speaker 3: say for the.
Speaker 1: Chinese to pronounce. What is it that's in the word
Speaker 1: that makes it the most.
Speaker 3: Usually they have problems with rs and l's, but so
Speaker 3: individual the l's at the end that shouldn't be a problem.
Speaker 2: I don't know is that.
Speaker 1: They want to put in a are with it vas.
Speaker 2: Indervisual something.
Speaker 1: I mean, they just can't get there. And it's the
Speaker 1: funniest fucking thing. I'm Look, there's we go to another country.
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's as of things to make fun of
Speaker 1: it that we do. But I always got to kick
Speaker 1: out of that ticket.
Speaker 2: Do you think does anybody care anymore?
Speaker 3: I mean, every day of the Epstein stuff, it's just
Speaker 3: how like the Democrats Barack Obama had stuff on his
Speaker 3: desk during his tenure when Epstein was initially arrested and investigated.
Speaker 3: Biden had the real dirty shit about Epstein on his desk.
Speaker 3: Neither one of them brought Trump's name up. I mean,
Speaker 3: his name came up during the Biden era a little bit.
Speaker 3: But now it's just like no one believes that Virginia
Speaker 3: Drewfrey said.
Speaker 2: Trump never did anything wrong. Epstein's not really saying shit
Speaker 2: about him.
Speaker 3: Is it still going on? Don't they realize that they
Speaker 3: had something? They would have nailed it me years ago
Speaker 3: with this thing? Why would they hold on?
Speaker 1: Look, I've been saying forever that this is a nothing.
Speaker 1: I mean just a big nothing burger. And uh, you know,
Speaker 1: conspiracies are really really hard to execute because people don't
Speaker 1: keep quiet about it. And you're these conspiracies that require
Speaker 1: lots of different people to have kept their mouths shut
Speaker 1: for long periods of time.
Speaker 4: It's just there's no such thing.
Speaker 1: And here it's such an obvious and despicable It's like
Speaker 1: it's like the BBC thing with January sixth, Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: I who would go so far to trick an audience
Speaker 1: with lies, to get them to believe something untrue that
Speaker 1: they want them to believe because just so important to
Speaker 1: them that their audience hates Donald Trump.
Speaker 3: I know, well, like somebody else, not just not just
Speaker 3: one person.
Speaker 2: The BBC knew that happened.
Speaker 3: Other people knew, and yet no one said a word, right,
Speaker 3: I mean people, there's a lot of conspiracies like that
Speaker 3: where you go, well, a lot of people would have
Speaker 3: to keep their mouths shut, and yet they did because
Speaker 3: the BBC story we didn't get it until just the
Speaker 3: other day.
Speaker 2: There's a lot of stories like that out there that.
Speaker 1: Well, but that's it's another country. It's you know, you
Speaker 1: don't that one is you know, they pulled the wool
Speaker 1: over a bunch of people's eyes, but no one in
Speaker 1: the US was paying attention to it. I mean, there's
Speaker 1: a lot the right would have to pay attention to
Speaker 1: to catch all the craziness that goes on on the
Speaker 1: on the left. Like watching Katie Kuric interview John Fetterman
Speaker 1: the other day, Just disgusting watching the interview that what
Speaker 1: magazine shoots from Forbes or whatever, the one who was
Speaker 1: trying to get a trip up Sydney Sweeney q Q.
Speaker 2: Do you want to apologize?
Speaker 3: Do you want to talk about how you might be seen,
Speaker 3: how might be seen like just as.
Speaker 1: You want to you want to just the computer and.
Speaker 3: I know it's disgusting. They just have such a it's vitriol.
Speaker 3: Do you want to do you want to apologize? Do
Speaker 3: you think maybe you should?
Speaker 2: Oh? I can't believe how.
Speaker 3: They've been brought up or at least what do you
Speaker 3: call it, the way they've been taught in schools, universities
Speaker 3: and brainwashed to believe a certain way.
Speaker 2: It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: And and to have been through all that and to
Speaker 1: think that you're on the higher moral ground, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's unbelievad Katie Cork so disgusting.
Speaker 3: Well, I did this on politics the other day. Michelle
Speaker 3: Obama made that stay. But on Stephen Colbert's show about
Speaker 3: I'm I taught people you could be black, smart, sexy,
Speaker 3: Michelle Obama said this, right, I saw it, I saw
Speaker 3: the replay. I go to write it for my show,
Speaker 3: and I'm looking. I go check. I wanted to see
Speaker 3: exactly what it was. And AI comes up basically saying
Speaker 3: that that what she said is probably not quoted correctly.
Speaker 3: They were doing all they could to make you think
Speaker 3: that she didn't say that, and she absolutely said it.
Speaker 3: It's on TV, it's in the press. But AI was saying, now,
Speaker 3: it was probably taken out of context, not at all.
Speaker 4: So Gemini, Yeah, when you go to.
Speaker 3: Google, the first probably chat when you go to Google,
Speaker 3: right when.
Speaker 4: You go to Gemini.
Speaker 1: When you go to Google, you're getting Gemini Gemini.
Speaker 2: So Gemini said that persuading me from Rock. Yeah, used Rock.
Speaker 1: I mean because at the end of the day, all
Speaker 1: the AI can do is scour the information that it's
Speaker 1: been given access to, and what it's got access to
Speaker 1: is determined by its creator. Right, So if I'm you know,
Speaker 1: the same shit that I went through, I went through.
Speaker 1: Ten years ago, my son came home from school saying,
Speaker 1: I got to do a report on how the US
Speaker 1: started the Cold War. And I'm like, no, no, no, your
Speaker 1: teachers just trying to test your your brain and challenge
Speaker 1: you to think for yourself. And that's not They don't
Speaker 1: expect you to come out with that as your opinion.
Speaker 1: And Jaxon's like, no, Dad, you don't get it. That's
Speaker 1: exactly what they want me to do.
Speaker 2: You're like, well, look.
Speaker 1: Here, google six pages of result. It's not a single
Speaker 1: story about how the US started the Cold War.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But on page twelve there is. And that's the
Speaker 1: one I got to go with because that's the way
Speaker 1: it is. But all this stuff has been shaped over
Speaker 1: tips of the records, clouded in any ai going off
Speaker 1: of the record, and I.
Speaker 2: Know, and you don't, you know.
Speaker 3: Unfortunately, you know, when I was a journalist, I think
Speaker 3: they still have Nexus lexus. I think that's the big set.
Speaker 3: Was like, yeah, that was the big thing we used
Speaker 3: to plug into it. That was as far as we
Speaker 3: can go outside of reading old clips. But the point is,
Speaker 3: if you made a mistake in the old days, you
Speaker 3: would write a retraction on page three correction well, corrections
Speaker 3: and retractions. Not only are there no more, but in
Speaker 3: the old days they weren't brought into the Lexus nexus search,
Speaker 3: so you would never know if what you were reading
Speaker 3: was wrong because the corrections don't run in Lexus nexus lexus.
Speaker 2: But however it's set.
Speaker 1: Don't run anywhere because no one, no one, no one correct. Yeah,
Speaker 1: BBC is not doing anything about it. Now I know
Speaker 1: what they did, and believe nobody ever does. No, they don't. No.
Speaker 1: Occasionally you'll see ultra fear I mean comes now I'm
Speaker 1: seeing is by CNN over the course of the last
Speaker 1: couple of days has done some things to back pedal
Speaker 1: away from Trump stuff because they know there's no there
Speaker 1: there and uh, you know they don't and they're gonna
Speaker 1: get sued. They want to try and tiptoe their way
Speaker 1: their way out of it. But yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 3: We got to sue happy president. He's not gonna let
Speaker 3: any of these things go by. And he's shown that
Speaker 3: he's he's won a couple of cases. And man, it's uh,
Speaker 3: we never had a president who did this like we
Speaker 3: just said, no, fuck you, that's a lie. I'm sulling
Speaker 3: you he's always been that way. I've gotten his uh
Speaker 3: his uh, his his wrath, his wrath when I wrote
Speaker 3: about his wife in my book and he sent some
Speaker 3: lawsuit paperwork to me, never sued me, but suddenly scared
Speaker 3: me enough to say, Okay, I won't do that anymore.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, he's also the one who runs to
Speaker 1: NBC a guy and talks about grabbing women by the
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 2: What I mean. He I know, I know.
Speaker 1: He's he's constant entertainment. But he's the most non presidential
Speaker 1: president in presidential history.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. That is true. Maybe that's what we needed.
Speaker 3: But uh hey, pardon maybe maybe we'll get it back
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 2: It's not talking. It just makes me laugh. No, it
Speaker 2: just makes me laugh. Let's just me.
Speaker 3: I'm not saying, let's do it. I just can't believe that.
Speaker 3: Being so like, there's a way, there is a way.
Speaker 3: They've got the Democrats bananas over this. Well, announce the
Speaker 3: plan one day, Well.
Speaker 1: An amendment to the constitution that that would be Yeah,
Speaker 1: that would be the only way. Yeah, and no, no,
Speaker 1: why that, No one's amending the constitution. No one wants
Speaker 1: ninety year old Trump in the freaking White House.
Speaker 3: And no, and yeah, I understand he can't possibly he
Speaker 3: won't do he won't do it. He's done, he's done.
Speaker 3: He's gonna go out. He wants to go out as
Speaker 3: the peacemaker of the world. I think this the stuff
Speaker 3: he's done lately with the peace talks, this and that, that.
Speaker 2: Makes him most proud.
Speaker 3: And uh, I think that's what he wants his second
Speaker 3: administration to be, all about the fact that he calmed
Speaker 3: the world down. Uh. And he has in some ways,
Speaker 3: But then again, here at the home front, we're not
Speaker 3: calm at all. It's a fucking bee hive out here.
Speaker 1: Kai Trump on the OPGA tour, you see.
Speaker 2: That having and last came in and last right.
Speaker 1: Well, she's cute though, she's very cutey.
Speaker 2: That's good. That's good.

Speaker 1: maybe a year younger. But he lives with his mother
Speaker 1: in the same complex that Kenny does Kenny areas.
Speaker 4: Kenny would say.
Speaker 1: He's in the slums of that development and is in
Speaker 1: the the heat figure plus uh household. She might be
Speaker 1: a couple of sings eight figures that house. That.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's got to Kenny's got to get there. It's
Speaker 3: just not you know, it is a bigger, bigger place.

Speaker 3: If all we need Chucky, well, we need, we need
Speaker 3: to we need we need what's his name, we need.
Speaker 1: Grudon jun Well, he'd be fantastic.
Speaker 3: But this would have been Belichick's team, This would have giant.
Speaker 3: Belichick would have been Giants coach if he didn't become
Speaker 3: this crazy guy.
Speaker 2: With the young girl from the North Carolina job.
Speaker 3: If he was just still out there being an analyst,
Speaker 3: Giants grabbed him in a second, don't you think why not?
Speaker 1: Because I think it's I think it's past him. You can't.
Speaker 2: It's a different league now. Your younger, younger coaches, players
Speaker 2: are different.
Speaker 1: They were all most of them now were coddled in college.
Speaker 2: With the NL. Shit, it's a different world.
Speaker 1: You need a different kind of coach and hang with
Speaker 1: young guys. And he's a great quarterback coach.
Speaker 2: That'd be fun.
Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin could work too, because of his history with
Speaker 1: with Dart. I don't know if he wants to coach
Speaker 1: in the pros, but uh, but we need this. They
Speaker 1: need to make the right move, not something also Ran
Speaker 1: being kicked around the league with twenty teams coach. They
Speaker 1: need to make a move for somebody who's gonna be
Speaker 1: the you know, Parcel is gonna be the next decade
Speaker 1: of coaching this team and make a freaking difference.
Speaker 3: But that's why I like the next. I like the next.
Speaker 3: I like Mike Brown. I think that was a solid pick.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have looked out rid of Thibodeau, but I
Speaker 3: think he's ok I think it's okay. I think he's
Speaker 3: got them doing what they need to be doing, except
Speaker 3: not leaving your starters in with two minutes to going
Speaker 3: down by sixteen. That I always get nervous when Brunson's
Speaker 3: got the ball and charging the hoop down by sixteen
Speaker 3: with two minutes. He's not gonna win. Get him out
Speaker 3: and get it back up. Get it back up, point guard.
Speaker 3: So we can spell this guy a little bit once
Speaker 3: in a while. But otherwise they're looking good. They're looking fun, fun.
Speaker 2: Year.
Speaker 1: How long is he out for?
