Speaker 1: All start to you want to present some off the
bench with Jacob Hester and T. Bob Abert. Yeah yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah, off the bench with Jacob Hester and T.
Speaker 2: Bob aber I gotta come off the pitch.
Speaker 1: Now, here's Jacob Hester and T Bob Abert.
Speaker 2: What's going on? Y'all? Want been down? Or two oo
TP And even though we're a couple of weeks late
because of the Senior Bowl and Super Bowl and all
the madness they're in, it is finally time to bring
back one of our favorite takements every single week, that
is Thursday at eight am, where we are blessed to
talk to LSU hey coach Bethserena. And at this time
of depressing amounts of inflation in society falling around all
around us, falling apart, all around us. You know who's
not falling apart, the LSU softball team ten and zero
multiple ranked wins, top five in the country in the
latest D one on rankings. Coach Terarina want to start
how we feeling.
Speaker 3: We're feeling good. We're feeling like we might be playing
in a hockey game ourselves this weekend. Oh yeah, you know,
we're gonna get it done. We are gonna get it done.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not gonna Lie been trying to get a
group out of the burn Friday afternoon, and jeez, we
are really soft here when it comes to cold weather
because I'm running into some pushback. But we'll see, we'll see. Okay,
let's look before we look forward, though, you got another
five games coming up this weekend. But before we look forward,
let's look back. Because again, in case you've missed, we've
talked about on her. But in case you missed it
Elseie saw play perfect ten and Oer Like I said,
multiple ranked wins, and some new superstars beginning to emerge,
none bigger than Heavener. Currently through two weeks of college baseball,
she already has a perfect game in her first ever
college baseball game. She's twice been named SEC Freshman of
the Week last week, and she got two top twenty
five complete game wins over Northwestern of Virginia Tech. What
can you say about your freshman feenom, Well.
Speaker 3: She is really really special. We're lucky to have her.
I mean, she was the number one player in the country,
so we had a good, good idea of what we
were getting. But she's really lived up to the Bill.
Just been a joy to coach to, just like open
and wanting to make change. And I am going to
help you out though, because you're going to say the
same a lot Asner. It's Oh, you're bad, You're.
Speaker 2: Jordan Evener, Jane, I screwed up again. Wow god, oh
my god, what a disaster. What a disaster. It's the
cold weather, the cold weather, yeah, my brain.
Speaker 3: I'm just helping you because you're going to say the
name a whole lot, four years, a whole lot. So
she's really really special.
Speaker 2: I'm also coach. You gotta understand, I'm very flustered. Okay,
I just figured out a knax. Eighteen dollars now, Taylor
got three things from Taco Bell yesterday was eighteen dollars.
I mean when we were in school, eighteen dollars supposed
to buy you equity in the Taco Bell itself. I
thought I thought you got like at least two percent,
And now I can't even get two burritos. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we could have fed the team for eighteen dollars,
no question, like the whole team, you know, yes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do't think there's any question about that.
Speaker 5: Coach, have you ever had a stretch of playing four
ranked teams in a row and winning all four.
Speaker 3: I don't know, I'd have to look back, but it
was awesome. It was really exciting. I think there's so
many questions surrounding this group before we got going, So
many young people and even some of the older people
are new to us with Avery Hodge and Jayla Lasseter
and so a lot of question marks. But they answered
the call. You know, they stood, They stood to the
test and it's a super exciting time around here at
Tiger Park and Coach.
Speaker 5: That's something we've actually talked with Jay Johnson and Jay
Clark and Coach Mulkey about young players now.
Speaker 2: Just being ready to play. And it's a different age.
Speaker 5: And I don't know what you can attribute that to,
maybe because I know, like when I was like it
was twenty years ago, but when I was coming into
LSU twenty one, oh god, that hurt. You know, young
people didn't play like and when I didn't red shirt,
like I remember it kind of being a big deal
and every like a lot of really good players red
shirted because that's just the way you did things. Like now,
like in your career, you've been doing this a long time.
Does it feel like young players are more ready to
play as soon as they get to campus now compared
to even a couple of years ago.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, you know, at LSU is having an
opportunity to get such special athletes. You know, we get
the top of the top and the best that are
out there, so they already have a ton of experience.
They've been challenged and played for national championships at their levels,
you know. So yeah, I think we're going to We're
able to get a lot of athletes with a ton
of experience. So but this this group has been super exciting.
I can tell you. The feelings around here are just
really good. Everybody's plumps, everybody's feeling good about them so well,
So hopefully we can keep it going here And Coach.
Speaker 2: We'll talk a bit about Danica Coffee because you mentioned
all the young players.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 2: But but any great team is going to have a
mixture of veteran leadership and kind of those those those
those you know, those phenoms, those young stars. But Coffee
last year, uh injuring her knee brutal for her. I'm
trying to remember. I remember talking about with you right
after it happened. And her basically like, this is not
how it's going to end for me. She is now
back patting over five hundred. What's it been like watching
her on that roadback and now having such great success
right o here at the gate.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just picked up where she left off. It's
been really fun to see. I mean, she's one of
the best offensive players in the country, one of the
best players. I think she's the best leadoff hitter out there.
You know, it was a huge hit for our team.
We never really could fill that spot that she left
last year, so it was fuss that. I'm so happy
to see her up and going again. And the pult
of mining is she's she's leading a bunch of a
bunch of women just want to be tough, like just
try to have tough competitive at that like that she
is fast, they run well. So she's set such a
cool tone for us every time, and just how to
be brave and have a veteran at bat and then
the young people follow and just kind of run all
over the place press people. It's been fun to see.
Speaker 4: Coach.
Speaker 5: You're gonna have a bunch of games coming up, as
we've talked about, You're gonna have five games in a
couple of days. Maybe give us a book on some
of the teams that you're going to be playing. I
know it starts out with Penn State and then you
go to Southern Miss and Nichols is going to be
on Saturday and Sunday there to finish it up. So
I know you and I think we've talked with you
enough to know that you already have a book on
each team. But give us a little preview of what
we're going to see in Tiger Park there for the
LSU Invitational.
Speaker 3: Well, I've seen every pitch on the offensive side for
all three teams that they played this year. They're all
about ten games deep IAT seeing them all. But Penn
State has a really good arm, but she's been seems
like she's had some injuries, so I don't know if
we'll see her or not. I think that's been some
of their issue. But an offense that runs a little
bit like us, they're fast athletics. Southern Myss took All
Miss down to the wire last week and beat them,
so they've had some moments where they've been really good.
And then Nicholas is coming off back to back really
good years. So you know, as always, you don't get
a moment to take a day off or take a
game off. You got to show over with your best
well no.
Speaker 2: And I mean it's so important preparing you for the
best conference in softball. It's time and close, which is
the SEC. So like having that kind of preseason forge
to you know, to temper yourself, I think matters a
lot and you'll have done great in that regard. You've
mentioned your team applying pressure, running a lot. I mean
you have some power, certainly with Macy Bergeron and Tory
Edward's been huge just far out the gates. But if
somebody's coming to this twenty twenty five LSU softball team,
you know every year it's kind of like going on
a first daid, forming a new relationship. What do you
think are the traits of this twenty five team? Like,
what should people expect when they come out to Burm. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think this team is tough. I think they're athletic.
I think they understand how to play in Tiger Park.
Our park plays a little differently and they've embraced that. So,
you know, I think they've done a really good job.
Last week and I sat in the press bog watching
for Junia Tech, and I was like, Man, if this
isn't the top ten team, I don't know what is.
You know, before we played two seventy mile an hour
arm the lefty alrighty, I mean they really had all
the pieces and then our team went out and just
did such a good job against them. So I think
you're going to get a little bit of everything, But
I think the difference is going to be it's a
lot of hard sixties, Like we're coming out of the box.
We're coming at you. If you leave anything open, We're
taking it and just applying pressure in a different way
than we have before.
Speaker 5: Coach, is there one thing that you know, having another
group of games coming up and being in your ballpark
or your team knows it well, Like, is there one
thing that you can point to to say, I want
to see this this weekend before we head out to California.
Speaker 3: We do kind of have a list of things we
want to accomplish this weekend. Some of our you know,
different run plays and different things that we're trying to implant.
We do want to see some of that. This weekend
gives a chance to practice some of the things. So
you know, in a pressure spot. We've done it before,
so hopefully you see us take an extra basis and
you know, circle in those base paths pretty often.
Speaker 4: This weekend, h.
Speaker 2: Coach to go back to Heabner for a minute. I mean,
a perfect game out the gate to start the career.
Have you ever experienced anything like that?
Speaker 3: A little perfect that's her.
Speaker 2: I mean it's like I just can't fathom. So you're
the number one recruit in the entire country, so much
pressure on your shoulders. You get the NOD opening day,
first game of the year, and I mean, like you
could it be better? It's it's it's it's it's I
guess it speaks to everything you're talking about her, like
mental toughness, physical ability, just all of it.
Speaker 3: I didn't tell this story yet, but I I want
to tell us she was pitching, and I'm sure everyone
assumed you know, it's did right, because I mean it
is still our horse, right. I mean, she's just the
best of the best. I mean, it's hard to mention
our pitching without talking about how specialty is. But I
thought the matchup was for staid in the second game
on the first night, So I went to Keithner and
I was like, jan you're gonna go the first game,
the opener of the whole season, you know, and she
goes just look at me and she's like yeah, yeah,
all right, Like like she just nothing rattles her. There's
no moment that's too big.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: She just wants the ball and wants to compete. It's
pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and to be fair to Sydney Burzon,
she falls that perfect game up with a two hit
shut up right. So, like you said, a lot of
a powerful duo on the mound there for your LSU
Tigers coach Tarita, it is so great to speak with
you again. Looking forward to doing this every Thursday again. Guys,
five more games coming up in Tiger Park this weekend.
It's going to be a great weekend in the park.
Get out there, have some fun again. One of the
best vibes in all the beaton rouge is the burm
watching a game having a good time.
Speaker 3: Thank you, coach, Thanks for having me appreciate you, guys.
Speaker 2: Always good to be back. Feels great, coach. Okay, so again,
let me give you those game times real quick. So Friday,
you're gonna have three thirty against Penn State and six Coggins,
Southern Miss Saturday, four pm. Southern Miss six thirty Nickels
Sunday one thirty Nickels. So a very full fun weekend
in Tiger Park coming up coming up next here on
OTB on three went through the worst officiating calls, the
worst calls of the last college football season, and LSU
made the list.
Speaker 4: South Carolina game.
Speaker 2: Maybe they find out next on Off the bench, Off
the bench, go to all Start Toyota Ben Rouge, All
Start Toyota Ben Rouge. Now All Start Tote is there
for you. Man, Look service, enter body shop, open to
all make some models, right. I always talk about that
because they're the best. They have a great quick turnaround times,
free fresh vestments, excellent lines communication. They also they have
factory parts right there on site. So you know again
in and Out told you about the woman next to
me last time. I was getting a tire fixed over
there last week and she said me out, oh my gosh,
ive got this done so quick. I ain't getting home
in time for my story. And yeah, I was like,
oh that's all the story I know made so happy.
Speaker 5: My stories were prices right when I got to stay
home from school.
Speaker 2: I don't know what I watched when I got to
stay from school. I guess like a lot of like
uh Jerry Springer stuff like that probably led to my
original brain rot. You know what won't give you brain rot?
All start to go to all start yondah batanroogs dot com. Today,
she's burning me to hold on to this. I know
this is something I gotta do.
Speaker 1: Welcome in to the best morning sports this show around
off the Bench with Hester and t Bob.
Speaker 2: I love you, hey, hey hey, and it's better for
me to let it go now, guys gotta burn. The
best part of the music video is when he pulls
out he's between the palm tree. He goes and all
the palm trees go up in flames behind him.
Speaker 4: It's a good part.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 7: I think we should do uh.
Speaker 2: I don't know why these music videos burned into my brain.
Speaker 7: That the is with the fedora that he.
Speaker 5: Confessions, that's a good one.
Speaker 2: Uh, Mitchell's go ahead.
Speaker 6: I was gonna say you said between two trees. I
was gonna say, we should do like a between the
ferns or whatever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, between two berns.
Speaker 7: Yeah we should do that, like you.
Speaker 2: I was almost thinking about watching the between two Ferns movie.
And how many y'all know that they made a movie. Yes, yeah,
and it's actually very funny and it justifies its existence,
which I would not have expected. And it's got Will
Ferrell in it at some point. It's it's it's really good.
You know what I never knew about Between Two Ferns.
I always watched and I laughed, and I knew it
was very funny. Uh, but I didn't realize kind of
the core concept, which is just for them not to laugh, right,
like he says these you know, jokes and other things
and everybody's just wanted to not laugh. Would you kind
of pick up on naturally? But one of the funniest
parts about Between Two Ferns movies is they show you
bloopers afterwards of everybody dying laughing, and it's it's just,
you know, bloopers are great comedy.
Speaker 8: Who was it that he had on in the movie
and they like flooded the place?
Speaker 2: You know, I'm not sure my favorite ever now I
don't remember who I was in the movie, So my
favorite Between Two Ferns ever, though John Hamm was great.
I think mcconae was good, But my favorite ever was
Charlie's staring. She was so clearly extremely stoned, I mean,
like red eyed, giggly, like a faint hint of a
smile always on her lips. But she was also like
so funny and beautiful, just like overwhelmingly cool, seeming shadow
Charlie's staring, which I imagine that's kind. She probably is
overwhelming cool and funny because like her and Seith MacFarlane
are real tight family guy guy. They made a Thousand
Ways Dine in the West, which I don't know. I
never saw that. You have to watch that movie, Gulf South,
says Will Ferrell. I'm out, that's crazy. Will Ferrell, to me,
has the same thing that all the greats have, like
a Bill Murray, where you just see them on screen
and you could almost feel a giggle. They have an
aura about them, you can feel a giggle bubbling up
in your belly out of nowhere.
Speaker 8: I know a lot of people feel the way he does.
Gulf South does about Will Ferrell, like.
Speaker 4: For me, Will, I don't think I've ever met somebody
for either, Miss.
Speaker 8: I either love Will Ferrell in movies and he makes
the movie for me, or it doesn't quite hit with me.
Most of the time. I enjoy him, but sometimes sometimes he's.
Speaker 6: The only Will Ferrell movie that I didn't like was
Get Hard with Kevin Hart.
Speaker 2: I'm not saying it like every Will Ferrell movie, but
Will Ferrell's never the problem at the movie generally I agree, like, yeah,
Getthard's not very good.
Speaker 7: No, I agree, but it's not like it's not Will's fault.
Speaker 2: Actually I like it. I don't know.
Speaker 7: I didn't like it that much. I think I watched
it once.
Speaker 4: The one that John Mayer makes It came here.
Speaker 8: For the part he plays for his like wife for fiance.
Speaker 2: I will tell you when I watched the other night
with Bill Murray that I had not seen him probably
twenty years, that he used to watch all the time
growing up, because there's a VHS that we had at
Talta beinn h Jones. What a classic and it is
just as funny, but really even funnier than I remember
because there were so many jokes that I missed. Now
I don't know what it is man now again, all
the live action scenes with Bill Murray and then Chris Elly,
it gets involved, well, Molly Shannon. The live action scenes
of that movie unreal, funny, every single one of them
unreal funny. Me and the cannon were dying laughing at everything.
Bill Murray said. Basically he went through I mean think
about it. Between that and Space Jam, Murray had just
a couple of hybrid live action animated scene stealers there,
but whatever. But even going into the actual like movie itself,
like it's a good buddy cop. It's it's a good
buddy cop story like that would work at any setting.
But then they said it inside the body and all
the body puns and analogies, like it's just freaking awesome. Dude,
if you have not seen Osmosis Jones in a while
two thousand and one, is it Chris Rock? Yeah, it's
Chris Rock, not Chris Tucker. Right. Well, I think I
figured out the other day Lawrence Fishern's the bad guy.
Like it's a star studded casts and it is absolutely fantastic.
Speaker 4: Love it. Check out how Mosa's Jones. I don't know
that I've seen that. You never seen it? I probably
have and just don't remember.
Speaker 2: Bill Murray is so deeply unhealthy in the movie. He
will make you feel uncomfortable. Yeah, like the dude, somebody
the ziit the everything when he's like turning green after
eats the oyster. Oh my gosh, it's so funny, dude.
Speaker 7: They made us watch that in I don't know, probably
chemistry or something.
Speaker 2: I mean, because it has like actual good. It's got good,
like biologically, like you know how Inside Out does a
very good job of making a kind of traditional movie
like set around emotions and whatnot, and like you're like, oh,
that's funny, that's clever. That's clever, like constantly during Mosa
Jones or in every joke like, oh that's clever, that's clever.
When the the know that you have the politician for
change there in the pits and and you have your
kind of uh mayor, your incumbent mayor who wants to
keep things as they are, and we're going to Buffalo
for the wild Wings. So it's just so good dude.
Speaker 8: When uh when Murray's uh zip popped like.
Speaker 2: So griss. Yeah, yeah, it's all time good. You should
watch that with the with the Boys, Jake. They would
actually think it's funny too. They're not too old, they're
not too old for it.
Speaker 4: I don't know, members you know, you got to try
to fit it in between.
Speaker 2: Chicago PD and.
Speaker 4: And Will Trent.
Speaker 5: Yeah, wait what Yeah, there's a detective show on ABC
Will Trent that Memphis just.
Speaker 2: Loves, just straight up called Will Trent.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a detective's name and it's called Will Trent
and he loves it.
Speaker 2: That was a good detective show. Is it? Is it good?
Speaker 4: It's actually not bad for for like an a b C.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is what it is is good within that
within that context.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a little there. It's setting in Atlanta actually, okay,
works for the g.
Speaker 2: B I, the Green Bay Institute Technology. What's the GBI.
Speaker 4: Georgia Bureau of Investigation.
Speaker 7: Oh you said Atlanta and he went green Bay.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and this man's from it.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I wait does every state have their own b I?
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Is there an l b I out there Georgia Bureau
Investigation like FBI, which is federal, but g for Georgia.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: Maybe is there a TBI.
Speaker 7: Isn't there like fbis in each state?
Speaker 2: Well that would know, I mean that would be yeah,
there's like Bran yeah for sure, Yeah, the branches on A.
Shreveport has one, Monroe has one. Bro. If you're an
l b I agent, get in touch of me because
we're gonna hunt down chucks in the avenue and eat
salami and drink pino noir on ice together. I want
to I want to feel like greases. Let them coat
my cheeks. I hate it. Wash you down the throat,
clear it out. Oh Chuck, you, Chuck, love you. Even
though nobody reached out to me. What's up, Chuck? Nobody
in your ecosystem listens to the show?
Speaker 4: Come on now, your pepperoni guy?
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, it looks like the videos from like the
two thousands, so.
Speaker 2: They could have defogged the camera maybe before they did it.
Do you want to watch the French fry pomework video?
Speaker 7: Absolutely not.
Speaker 4: That's just a California brito. Uh French fries when I'm
oh boys, basically a California breedo.
Speaker 2: They put French fries in their britos in Cali. You
know that sounds delicious. So On three had the worst
officiating calls of the twenty twenty four season, number ten.
They had in the Nebraska Hot State game, which was
shockingly close. I mean, Nebraska control for much of the game,
ends up losing by seven, but there was a Nebraska
run that was spotted incorrectly and it forced Nebraska to
use a timeout on a critical a critical drive right
before the end of the half. They have an Ohio
State targeting call that got overturned, which was pretty crazy.
They had the Alabama illegal touching Ryan Williams touchdown in
the Oklahoma game, which remember Alabama getting absolutely throttled and
finally they had something right. I think it was gonna
make like twenty four to ten. But they had a
massive Ryan Williams touchdown. They called it illegal touching because
they said he was covered up. He was absolutely not
covered up. They had at number seven two lanes game win.
He touched out against Kansas State. Oh the oki that they.
Speaker 4: Called I was, I was massive at the time.
Speaker 2: You know. There's a not no targeting call in Miami
cal which again I still like how last year we
aired on the side of no targeting.
Speaker 8: Was that the one where like the helmet came off
or whatever. Yes, yeah, I didn't think that was starting.
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, there there we go.
Speaker 8: Just because your helmet comes off doesn't mean it's starting.
Speaker 2: It looked bad.
Speaker 7: Uh.
Speaker 2: The Virginia Tech hail Mary attempt that was overturned against Miami,
I don't know.
Speaker 4: I kinda.
Speaker 2: I don't remember thinking that call was bad. I think
it was a gray area, but I don't think it
was like field and there was nothing. There was nothing
that overturned what they called in the field. So they
had that on there at number five that might be
number one, number four. Uh the p I in uh
Georgia Georgia Tech and one of the ots and what
Georgia Tech was saying, the ball was tipped at the line. Uh,
the Texas the the Texas PI when the Texas Georgia
when they called it on Georgia and then or sorry
to know they called it on Sorry, I'm trying to
remember exactly, Okay what there was an interception they called
PI and then they talked and they just like straight
up overturned it. And that's when the Texas fans threw
all the trash on the like if you the trash
on the field. So then it was so then and
then oh yeah, and then the rest were ward. That's
what it was. Texas. Finally they got made me play,
They got a pick. They called p I. Text fans
through trash on the field. So the game stops. The
rest talk and they're like, actually, wasn't PI We're gonna
give your way Texas, right, So that was number three,
number two, the personal foul in the South Carolina pig
six and my god, you watch it again. I mean,
LSU was cooked. But Canard couldn't help himself.
Speaker 4: As soon as he put his arms up too.
Speaker 2: Braden Swinton quote tweeted the tweet where they were announcing
this list or whatever, and he tagged Canard and he
was like, shout out to my boy, tagging him that
you know we needed this one true good job by
Garrett Lane on the ground too. Yeah, I'm sure it
didn't feel And then Jake, I know that this is
very close to your heart.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get kind I guess yep, I have no
idea peach bowl.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 4: The what happened to the targeting that wasn't called.
Speaker 2: The Texas no targeting call against Arizona State, which again
I'm okay with, I'm okay with I I agree. I mean,
you know, his face was up, but I agree. But
I'm okay with Aaron on the side of no targeting.
But that was, according to on three, the number one
worst call of the entire season. And it is crazy
mean the receiver had to leave the game. You watched
the you watched the replay again too, and it is
I mean it is helmet on helmet, Like maybe the
one thing, maybe the one thing that changes it a
little bit is like he didn't hit like Crown. But still,
I don't know, pretty wild, pretty well.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and airs on a State Wednesday game and thing
all it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I still want the game decided like that, But
I feel you, I mean, they do. They got you know,
well the game did get decided by that Texas won.
I mean I guess, you know, from like a purely yeah,
from a pure argument standpoint, I guess I can't really
argue with that. Uh. But again I would say that, like,
you know, I'd rather have it decided if the plays
that ended up deciding that game were more satisfactory than
a targeting leading to bombing. That's pretty crazy.
Speaker 4: That game was awesome, by the way.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's what I'm saying, and we don't get
a lot of the even extended awesome that we got
if they end up.
Speaker 5: I mean, there's there's not many times that like I'm
watching a game like LSU's playing, but like I remember
the entire family we were in the living room watching
this game, like kind of going back and forth back when,
back when we thought Scataboy was a king. Yeah, back
before he lost his way, before he didn't play in
the Senior Bowl, and that receiver I believe got knocked
out and didn't.
Speaker 4: Come back in the game on this.
Speaker 5: It's knocked out, got a concussion. Well, you know how
it is, like the a couple of concussions I got.
Just like the guy just like whispers basically to the
side of your helmet, and for whatever reason, it just
that's true.
Speaker 2: That's true. Sometimes you can yeah, yeah, that's true. That's
just not always one to one. That's fair.
Speaker 5: You're like, oh, that's somebody's somebody is really messed up.
I was about to say something appropriate, but yeah, and
then you get up and it's fine, and then somebody
like barely grazes the side of your helmet and concussion.
Speaker 2: Mitchell Sev's was it because it was tipped.
Speaker 5: I think that takes tart. That doesn't take targeting off. No,
but I passed like some different stuff.

learning the value of Jagged edging a bit more of

Speaker 2: A fork in the road and you took the path
lets travel, and that has made all the difference. Jake Frost,
let's tell you ended up in the NFL. You got
a little soula and maybe that's what it was. What
I'm saying. You are here listening to Kanye twitty kanyewit
be coaching running backs in high school some twitty Conway
Kanye Twitty Conway Conway. Well, okay, to be fair, I
wanted to talk about I wanted to talk about. To
be fair, I wanted to talk about Kanye because did
you see his tweets yesterday?
Speaker 7: Oh he's back?
Speaker 2: Well he said, uh, uh, let me he looked them
up exactly. Uh, he said.
Speaker 7: Because whenever I sent you what was it last week?
The tweets?
Speaker 6: Yeah he was crazy, yeah, but he had deleted his
Twitter or shut down or something.
Speaker 2: So Kanye yesterday, tweeting, after further reflection, I've come to
the realization that I am not a Nazi.
Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, I always.
Speaker 2: Said, he said, shout out to Adam Sandler. He said,
Adam Sandler, thank you for he said, Adam Sandler, thank
you for the love of course, Adam Sandler Jewish. After
further reflection, I've come to the realization that I am
not a Nazi. And then a bunch of people were
posting memes from oh man, what's the show with Oscar Isaac?
The Disney Marvel show Moon Night. Yes, a bunch of
people were posting memes from Moon Night being like Kanye
waking up and seeing what he did? Well, like, well,
what the hell happened?
Speaker 7: No, what is his alter ego?
Speaker 2: Yeah? So Kanye exactly? Is Kanye Twitty?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I mean got that.
Speaker 5: Conway twitty Lonely Blue Boys a jam.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's my favorite Conway song.
Speaker 2: I just figured out that one of the main producers
and owners of the James Bond franchise is named Barbara Broccoli.
Speaker 4: It shook you too, So.
Speaker 2: You don't think that's a hilarious fake last name, Like,
there's no way that Barbara Broccoli is a real freaking name, dude.
Speaker 7: Apparently it is.
Speaker 2: Somebody on Twitter is trying to tell me that the
vegetables named after her family, and I'm an idiot because
I freaking think I believe it. How do vegetables get
their names?
Speaker 6: You know what I saw on your Twitter is that
guy like, no, thank god, I wouldn't even look at
them if that was still available.
Speaker 2: And Trump or Elon whoever did it, I don't know
clip it.
Speaker 6: You no, the guy that saw one of our videos
of like saying Jamis should be the quarterback for the Saints.
Speaker 7: And he's like breaking it down.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I saw. I didn't watch the whole thing.
It was sixteen minutes song. I actually didn't watch any
of it, but I knew. I knew he's disagreeing with
us reacting.
Speaker 7: Hell yeah, I like it. But I watched some of it.
Speaker 6: I was kind of like flipping through it, like fast
forwarding through it, and it got to a part where
I said, like, no, wait.
Speaker 7: What was it? Something he starts trying to explain to like.
Speaker 6: Jake made a comment and I don't remember what it was,
but he's trying to explain, like how it works in
the NFL, like that how it works guy in his
basement trying to explain to a former NFL players.
Speaker 8: They thought, but forgot.
Speaker 6: I mean there's a difference between being in a basement
and being like a.
Speaker 2: Man's playing the NFL. To a seven year NFL.
Speaker 7: That was like, I don't have to go back and look.
Speaker 5: But guys, I mean jamis one on one.
Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no, no, this is a content creator.
Shout out to him. Let's give me shout.
Speaker 7: Let me see if I can find jamestta or something.
Speaker 2: But no, he was doing like a reaction to like,
look see, look like he's reacting. James Kametta says, bring
back James Sminton to the same who says, no parentheses
me and then a link to the the YouTube video.
And as I said, the less evolved brain cannot understand vibes.
So James, I appreciate reacting to the content.
Speaker 7: Hell yet, shout out James, it was just really funny
to me.
Speaker 2: But you are still just you know, you're a step
below me. Why you're You're a step above monkeys, but
a step below me. And one day, when you get
big brained enough, then you'll realize the Jamis take.
Speaker 8: Yeah, why did he come out to Jake, because not
all of us in this room, Jake included, we're on
board with Jamis coming back.
Speaker 4: Jake said, no, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I get. I don't want to know.
Speaker 7: I get. And it was like I was skipping through
it like it was something he was. We were talking
about tanking, and he's like, they're not going to tank,
and then I don't know.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean again, I don't I don't think teams
intentionally tank, but I think you can massage things around
the edges to be like, oh, you know what, we're.
Speaker 4: Just not that goodness follows.
Speaker 2: And also yeah, yeah, hell I know, shout out James.
Speaker 4: It was just fun.
Speaker 7: I wasn't making it.
Speaker 4: Like what was the deal?
Speaker 2: Why are you coming after a listener?
Speaker 5: But because Lodgers and the Fox Hall and she sticks
up for her own, which I really appreciate about Alandra.
Uh yeah, I'm with you though, Like James, anytime you
want to have a conversation about how the NFL works,
I am here for you.
Speaker 4: We can have that debate.
Speaker 7: I will say that, like te ball played at a
high level too.
Speaker 2: If there ever was a team that could tank or
a head coach. Sorry, that would have the the understanding of, hey,
we don't have a ton on like you don't you
don't have a ton of pressure on you. It is
one of the kind of hidden advantages of the or
I don't know if I call an advantage hidden elements
of the Mickey Loomis situation is he has such job
security that he literally he's basically an owner, so he
literally can tell Kellen Moore like, hey, look, we actually
don't care about your year one results, like you're not
gonna get something fired out of nowhere, like like it's
it's like, we're going to give you time to try
to figure this out. Bro. You know, what's laundry. You're
in the fight scene. You know. It's disconcerting me a bit.
What even though, was this in Vegas? Actually, according to
the ring, some of the fight game coming out of
Eastern Europe. I assumed this was Eastern Europe, And now
I'm not so sure, But like I watched one Eastern
European video of like ten regular dude against two MMA
fighters that was pretty awesome. But yesterday there's a video
of two men against three Instagram models and it's female, yes,
and it's just like abuse. They're just beating the hell
out of these women in the ring, and it says
Las Vegas all over the rings. So like, I don't
I don't know.
Speaker 7: Yeah, no, I've never heard of this, but send me
the link.
Speaker 2: I'll text Dystopian. Everywhere I look. Everywhere, we have freaking
AI robots that are now imitating the musculature of human
beings being hung by meat hooks and twitching around disconcertingly.

Goodwood in Sexual Wellness, your Goodwood dot Com. Uh, speaking

time on it. A big deal or no big deal
if you want robot umps with some of the Spring
Games are using now they're saying you have to get
rid of the K zone on television. Yeah, what's up?
What's up with that? Because it would still the robot
umps right now as it stands in the system, the
humans are still calling all the balls and strikes. But
you can challenge and then you know, you can you
get two challengers, so you can challenge a call if
you're right, you know whatever. But the point is, if
you have the K zone on television, then people can
just be watching the TV and be like, hey, challenge that, Hey,
don't challenge that.
Speaker 8: You think they should take down the first down marker
on football broadcast?
Speaker 2: I don't think it's one to one. But I'm just saying,
I'm just repeating. I'm not don't shoot the messenger here.
I hate the idea of robot ups. Yeah, none of
this is a good idea.
Speaker 6: Also, don't you want to quote unquote speed up the game. Yeah,
and if you have people checking, like reviewing every well.
Speaker 2: I think but I will say this though, I think
it could be like a too. But I think I
think it could be like a tennis challenge situation where
you know tennis is instant, Yeah, you challenge and they
have the tech where they're like they're great, Like you're like,
oh my god, it's somehow barely touch a line or
didn't and like this is cut and dry strike or not. Yeah,
So I don't know.
Speaker 7: I still don't like it.
Speaker 5: Just do like whatever minor league that system that is,
whether the batter just taps his head, hey, check it
on the big screen in center field ball strike all right,
cools go, I say, uh, forget about robot. I don't
want Robot's like, just have a normal ump and then
if you want to challenge one, I.
Speaker 2: Say, you'll suck it up and play baseball like it
has been played for one hundred freaking years, you nerds.
Speaker 7: Exactly exactly.
Speaker 6: I think the NBA and the MLB are running with
or like running into the same problem with their leadership,
where like Manfred and Silver just don't care what the
fan base has to say.
Speaker 7: Or think or anything like that.
Speaker 2: I think Silver has been desperately trying to innovate, but
he's gone so far that he's Yeah, I guess you're right.
Speaker 6: You're right.
Speaker 7: Stupid Golden at bad thing that he was even tinkering with.
It's just so dumb.
Speaker 2: What's the Golden a bad thing again? Yeah, it's super suck. Yeah,
I love that. It's like the Beer Pug celebrity shot.
Speaker 6: Yes, that's also that's exactly that's a great way to
put it.
Speaker 2: Actually, Beer Pug finally getting legitimized in the Golden Bat.
