Speaker 1: It's time for coffee and Company, fueled by Thornton's on
Speaker 1: Sports Talk seven nine day.
Speaker 2: Holy crap, I don't know who the hell we think
Speaker 2: we are.
Speaker 1: Get off our show idiots. The kids are playing or
Speaker 1: tail off countures are screwing it up. Gold Play Inner Murals, Brother,
Speaker 1: gold Play Inner Murals. They're supposed to be.
Speaker 2: Mature adults, but they're really not.
Speaker 1: Who's the kid here? Who's the kid here? Are you
Speaker 1: kidding me?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 1: Here's Nick coffee?
Speaker 3: All right, good afternoon, and welcome in Coffee and Company.
Speaker 2: That's us.
Speaker 3: We are fueled bout Thornton's here on Sports Talk seven ninety.
Speaker 3: Appreciate you joining us here on a Wednesday afternoon. It
Speaker 3: may sound as if I have just emerged from underwater,
Speaker 3: but I can I can tell you that's that's not
Speaker 3: the case. I am actually above water, but I'm not
Speaker 3: in studio today. I am broadcasting remotely, and for the
Speaker 3: most part, that's never been a huge issue. But if
Speaker 3: there in fact is an issue, or you know, just
Speaker 3: some difficulty, it is usually when we rely on a
Speaker 3: setup that we are relying on today. So I'm kind
Speaker 3: of in my own head here in regards to that
Speaker 3: and usually it ends up working out. But I feel
Speaker 3: like each time we are forced to rely on the
Speaker 3: type of connectivity that we have right now. Each time
Speaker 3: it's like a reminder you don't want to have to
Speaker 3: do this again, Like you don't want to have to
Speaker 3: ever be in the position to connect the way you're
Speaker 3: connecting now. And I kind of feel like that's going
Speaker 3: on as we speak.
Speaker 1: But we sound great right now, nick, I will say that.
Speaker 3: Okay, so right now when I'm speaking, when I when
Speaker 3: I led the show and I just rolled in, it
Speaker 3: didn't sound terrible.
Speaker 1: Not at all. It sounded about as good as it
Speaker 1: could have sounded, giving the circumstances.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, good. So here here's how it works. I
Speaker 2: don't know why. Nobody knows why.
Speaker 3: In fact, I'll give some kind of price to someone
Speaker 3: if they can, if they can give us some information
Speaker 3: into what would potentially cause this to happen, because I
Speaker 3: can tell you this, for over a year we used
Speaker 3: the same connection and didn't have this issue, And I
Speaker 3: don't know what happened. I don't know if it was
Speaker 3: an update, firmware I think that's the thing, or you've
Speaker 3: heard of firmware. Yeah, I don't know, I don't know
Speaker 3: what it was, but at some point it became an
Speaker 3: issue to where whenever I'm rolling and we're connected, I mean,
Speaker 3: you really would never know that we're not even in
Speaker 3: the same studio together. But when it changed whenever there's
Speaker 3: music being played from the studio, like when we're coming
Speaker 3: back from break, or maybe whenever I've just been like
Speaker 3: turned off and then turned on initially. And I'm talking
Speaker 3: about you know, connectivity perverts, but it it it It's
Speaker 3: like I got to come out from underwater to start talking,
Speaker 3: and you know, and within a couple of seconds, I've
Speaker 3: emerged from water and I'm and it sounds normal. So
Speaker 3: if I'm speaking and then John jumps in, like if
Speaker 3: both of us are talking at the same time, it
Speaker 3: it won't.
Speaker 2: Let that happen.
Speaker 3: Because a lot of times in radio, when we're in
Speaker 3: the same studio and when we're connected with our other
Speaker 3: comra system that I usually use, you could talk over
Speaker 3: each other. And that's never good radio to talk over
Speaker 3: each other. But there's a lot of natural talking with
Speaker 3: you know, amongst each other, and it times over each
Speaker 3: other to where.
Speaker 2: You need that. So where if we both get to yap.
Speaker 3: And at the same time, it'll just sound as if
Speaker 3: one of us has been dunked underwater and we and
Speaker 3: I don't mind saying this. Maybe I'm not supposed to,
Speaker 3: but I don't care because that don't see, this is
Speaker 3: not how we typically do it, but it is an
Speaker 3: option when we connect this way. And we're only doing
Speaker 3: it this way because we have to. We use a
Speaker 3: program called on SIP. So I'm connected to our studio
Speaker 3: with a service called on SIP. And again it worked
Speaker 3: like a charm. I mean I never All I needed
Speaker 3: was an Internet connection and no external equipment and I
Speaker 3: could do the show every day from home. I did
Speaker 3: it during the pandemic. Well at some point there was
Speaker 3: some kind of a change. Uh, And and here's.
Speaker 2: What I think, can I can I give you my.
Speaker 3: Guess, John as to what happened Absolutely on sip the
Speaker 3: way they initially rolled out what we were using. Believe
Speaker 3: it or not, I'm sure they didn't cater to us
Speaker 3: because their services are used for you know, boy, it's
Speaker 3: it's basically connecting via phone and using you know, a
Speaker 3: super strong connection to where it doesn't sound digital like
Speaker 3: you are in fact on a phone. So you know,
Speaker 3: it worked to where they didn't have something built in
Speaker 3: that will well will quiet someone it. Basically there's there's
Speaker 3: something set up to where it actually prevents people from
Speaker 3: talking over each other, which is what you want. Like
Speaker 3: if you ever been on a Zoom call and everybody's
Speaker 3: talking and it doesn't it doesn't you can't like you
Speaker 3: can't hear anybody.
Speaker 1: Think I thought of whenever you were talking or this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's so they they on SIP was probably
Speaker 3: I mean, they've been around a long time. I don't
Speaker 3: know if Zoom was created during the pandemic, but we
Speaker 3: all know it became a really really big deal during
Speaker 3: the pandemic. And there's other providing Like I don't do
Speaker 3: Skype still exist. I'm sure it does, right, John.
Speaker 1: An't exists, but I don't know who uses it anymore.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I haven't used a Skype.
Speaker 3: I haven't been on Skype or seen somebody who's Skype
Speaker 3: in a long long time. But there's Skype, and then
Speaker 3: there's also stream Yard, but that's not for like business communication.
Speaker 3: That's mostly just for recording podcasts or live streaming a
Speaker 3: podcast with different platforms. So my guess is that they
Speaker 3: were trying to keep up with the Joneses on SIP
Speaker 3: was to where they would they wanted to add this
Speaker 3: feature that would prevent people from talking over each other.
Speaker 3: And what that did is it disabled the ability for
Speaker 3: us to communicate at the same time without its sounding
Speaker 3: as if And you, by the way, you never you're
Speaker 3: not connected through Like when you hear John, you hear
Speaker 3: the station that's coming through the typical setup of the
Speaker 3: radio station. I'm connecting in on a source that uses
Speaker 3: on set, So it's really just me that that ends
Speaker 3: up sounding like that. So anyways, I'm sure we don't
Speaker 3: sound as good as we typically do.
Speaker 2: But here's what I.
Speaker 3: Want to do today, John, Here's what I want to
Speaker 3: do because I think this, I think this could work.
Speaker 3: When we come back from break, you do your thing,
Speaker 3: company man, John Aldeno, the Ones and two is bringing
Speaker 3: us back with whatever.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: I love being surprised with the different music that John
Speaker 3: likes to give us throughout the show. A lot of
Speaker 3: times it's just you know, whatever he's feeling from a
Speaker 3: creative space or maybe something that is relative to what
Speaker 3: has been discussed on the show. So when we come
Speaker 3: back from break, you bring us back, but you know,
Speaker 3: do it in a way that where people aren't under
Speaker 3: the impression that you've taken my job, because you know,
Speaker 3: I know you made a pretty good impression yesterday, and
Speaker 3: I get a little insecure.
Speaker 2: I don't want to lose my job. I got a
Speaker 2: family to feed.
Speaker 3: John, So you come back from break, you play the liner,
Speaker 3: you say, just say, actually, do whatever you want. I'm
Speaker 3: not going to try to get in your way creativity,
Speaker 3: create a creativity creatively. I can't speak either. Again, I'm
Speaker 3: in my own head. We have these kind of issues.
Speaker 3: But John brings us back from break. He's let's just
Speaker 3: give you an example. He's like, Hey, it's coffee and company.
Speaker 3: Feel by Thornton's nix with us. I'm the company man,
Speaker 3: but we're connected underwater today or say whatever. And then
Speaker 3: once you fade the music and I hear that we've
Speaker 3: got a millisecond of complete silence, then I'll emerge from
Speaker 3: water and it won't sound as if you know, we
Speaker 3: were already opening the segment with me six feet underwater.
Speaker 3: You want to give that a shot, You.
Speaker 1: Can give that a shot. It is what it is.
Speaker 3: Because I try to be a perfectionist, and at times
Speaker 3: it's really a fault of mine. Because there's a lot
Speaker 3: of things that like, I won't pursue do creatively if
Speaker 3: I don't think it sounds or looks perfect. That's just,
Speaker 3: you know, a flaw of mine. So you know, the
Speaker 3: most one of the most important. Like if you are
Speaker 3: coming back from break and somebody's never heard your show,
Speaker 3: if they hear, oh these guys, man, they must suck.
Speaker 3: They don't even let them broadcast above water, Like these
Speaker 3: costumers really really be lousy. So it's probably not a
Speaker 3: big deal. It's never been as big of a deal
Speaker 3: as I make it out to be. But I know
Speaker 3: how I am. It consumes me and it's led the
Speaker 3: first ten minutes of this show, which really isn't good
Speaker 3: for anybody. But I feel like in order for us
Speaker 3: to minimize this uh underwater version of Coffee and Company
Speaker 3: that you occasionally get, I feel like you bringing us
Speaker 3: back from break, well one give you more reps. You're
Speaker 3: you're gonna you're gonna kill it, and that way we
Speaker 3: just we minimize it as best as possible. So that's
Speaker 3: not okay, down, Well, I'll do whatever for the sake
Speaker 3: of the show.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm the company man right.
Speaker 3: Perfectly said, could not have said it better. That's why
Speaker 3: you are the company man. You're exactly right, all right again.
Speaker 3: It is coffee and Company above water right now, and
Speaker 3: we are fueled by Thornton's here on a Wednesday afternoon.
Speaker 3: Appreciate you guys joining us. Just know you can take
Speaker 3: us with you wherever you go. Listen live on the
Speaker 3: iHeart Radio app. Listen live at seven dot com. I'm
Speaker 3: gonna rely on the text line a lot today because
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be straight up with you guys. I'm always prepared.
Speaker 3: I got a lot of things I could yap about.
Speaker 3: You could put me in front of this microphone without
Speaker 3: me having any you know, formal sitting in front of
Speaker 3: a you know, sitting in front of a computer preparation,
Speaker 3: and I've you know, I can play the hits, I
Speaker 3: can keep it rolling. But I do want to rely
Speaker 3: on the text line a lot today because I neglect
Speaker 3: you guys at times, and I've had a lot of
Speaker 3: time in the last twenty four to forty eight hours
Speaker 3: to you know, reflect, and I need to be more
Speaker 3: mindful of the text line.
Speaker 2: So keep them coming.
Speaker 3: Five O two six five three zero seven ninety Ellen
Speaker 3: n Federal Credit Union text Line members get more at
Speaker 3: Ellenn Federal Credit Union. You can learn more and open
Speaker 3: your account today at LLENFCU dot com. We'll see what
Speaker 3: we get on the phone lines today. I will encourage
Speaker 3: you to give it a shot. But again, if we're
Speaker 3: going back and forth with this type of connection, you know,
Speaker 3: it could be a lot of you know, you dunking
Speaker 3: me under water and then me coming above water to react.
Speaker 3: So text line is always the best way to interact.
Speaker 3: I always tell people that, I mean, we do encourage
Speaker 3: phone calls and we'll see what we get. But yeah,
Speaker 3: plenty of ways for you guys to be a part
Speaker 3: of the show today. Today's one of those days where
Speaker 3: whenever I pop open Twitter and it's it's got to
Speaker 3: be a me thing on my Twitter settings, my x settings,
Speaker 3: and that is that it defaults to the for you
Speaker 3: rather than the following. Because I actually think I did
Speaker 3: without realizing it is I punched this microphone here. I
Speaker 3: do spend more time on the for you than the following,
Speaker 3: and I think I actually at times find the for
Speaker 3: you a little more useful than the following, which makes
Speaker 3: me a hypocrite, because I think one of the best
Speaker 3: things Twitter has going is it is a real organic timeline.
Speaker 3: If you go to the following section of the platform,
Speaker 3: now you're going to see ads mixed in there, but
Speaker 3: nothing like honestly with people can say what they want
Speaker 3: about elon Musk and X and Twitter and whatnot. It
Speaker 3: has given us the ability to control what we see
Speaker 3: on the platform. You can't do that on Facebook. You
Speaker 3: can't do that on Instagram. They tell you you can,
Speaker 3: but you're still going to be bombarded. In fact, it's
Speaker 3: a really good write up I saw yesterday about what
Speaker 3: really what Facebook and Instagram have turned into in regards
Speaker 3: to like what you see, I mean everybody's I mean
Speaker 3: it's the same thing you do. See someone that you
Speaker 3: know posts something, then it's an ad for something that
Speaker 3: you probably searched. Then it's the people you may know.
Speaker 3: Then it is reels that they show for you to
Speaker 3: check out. Like you know, they're controlling what you see.
Speaker 3: Any you know, organically growing your brand via those platforms,
Speaker 3: it's just not what it once was. And by the way,
Speaker 3: ex is getting there in regards to like how you
Speaker 3: can grow, But as far as the timeline itself and
Speaker 3: what you see, they still let you for the most
Speaker 3: part controlled it better than anybody. But anyways, I've always
Speaker 3: wanted a real timeline. But again I'm a hypocrite because
Speaker 3: I think for you helps me. Like if I've been
Speaker 3: away from Twitter for a few hours, if I pop
Speaker 3: it open and go to the for You, more often
Speaker 3: than not, I'm going to see something that is newsworthy
Speaker 3: to me. Then I'm like, oh wow, I missed this
Speaker 3: when I was away from the platform. Now I can
Speaker 3: you know. Now I can read about it and maybe
Speaker 3: talk about it on the show. That kind of stuff.
Speaker 3: But anyways, today when I go to the for You,
Speaker 3: outside of everybody discussing the election, I see that there's
Speaker 3: a ton of back and forth between Louisville and Kentucky fans.
Speaker 3: Most most people I don't follow, by the way, So
Speaker 3: again the four you will show you people that you
Speaker 3: don't follow, But it's people that they may think you're
Speaker 3: interested in their content, interested in what they're saying. And
Speaker 3: it's not that I am that interested in it, but hey,
Speaker 3: they know me right. Louisville and Kentucky, the rivalry, that's
Speaker 3: something that I consume quite a bit. So the back
Speaker 3: and forth, once again about strength of schedule, one that
Speaker 3: tells me that we are, in fact getting closer and
Speaker 3: closer to real football because you know, we've exhausted all
Speaker 3: different ways of discussing the upcoming season, so now the
Speaker 3: rivals are going back and forth. And because we don't
Speaker 3: play until the end of the season and we know
Speaker 3: we won't be able to find out until the end
Speaker 3: of November.
Speaker 2: The one way to you know, at this point.
Speaker 3: The way to go back and forth, other than Kentucky
Speaker 3: being able to continue to say they've got bragging rights,
Speaker 3: which they do. You've got people talking strength to schedule,
Speaker 3: and I don't want to tell you that I don't
Speaker 3: have the energy for it, because I always do when
Speaker 3: it comes to back and forth with Kentucky fans and whatnot.
Speaker 3: But I'm going to give Louisville fans some advice when
Speaker 3: it comes to the strength of schedule situation with Kentucky
Speaker 3: fans because you know, I don't think you're sensitive if
Speaker 3: you want to chirp back when you know you've had
Speaker 3: a good year. You know you were a good program,
Speaker 3: a better program historically. But all they throw at you is, well,
Speaker 3: you ain't play nobody you play in the acc I mean,
Speaker 3: Kentucky fans are convinced that Trinity High School would beat
Speaker 3: anybody in the ACC. That's how they act in that
Speaker 3: and it's a complex that they have because they have
Speaker 3: nothing to show for their existence in their own conference.
Speaker 3: And you know, one of their ways to feel better
Speaker 3: about themselves they can't look among their peers in their
Speaker 3: league because they're middle of a pack at best in
Speaker 3: that league.
Speaker 2: That's the ceiling.
Speaker 3: I'm not even sure the ceiling is that high now
Speaker 3: considering the fact that their league just got better and
Speaker 3: some teams that they used to be equal to or
Speaker 3: better than, are now either equal or better than them.
Speaker 3: So one of the ways Kentucky football has felt better
Speaker 3: about themselves and really kind of created a new brand
Speaker 3: is that one they no longer suck.
Speaker 2: They don't.
Speaker 3: They're not a bad I mean, they are a good,
Speaker 3: solid program, There's no doubt about that. And they had
Speaker 3: a couple of years where they were pretty damn good,
Speaker 3: especially considering what they've always been, so you know, with
Speaker 3: that they can put together. I mean, even when they
Speaker 3: have a ten win season, at the end of the day,
Speaker 3: what do they really have to show for it. They
Speaker 3: didn't really beat any they didn't have any monumental wins
Speaker 3: along the.
Speaker 2: Way, but they beat their rival. They've beat their rival.
Speaker 3: Consistently for the last I don't know, six seven years,
Speaker 3: and that that that, you know, is the cherry on
Speaker 3: top of them, right because they you know, And I'm
Speaker 3: not saying that it shouldn't be like anybody who acts
Speaker 3: like all who cares just another game, Like those are
Speaker 3: people I don't want to be in a rivalry with.
Speaker 3: Why It's always been my pet peeve. Why do we
Speaker 3: not embrace the fact that we hate each other? And yeah,
Speaker 3: beating them feels better than beating just about anybody, Like,
Speaker 3: I don't know why there's that insecurity to say that
Speaker 3: when it's true, Like I know it didn't have anything
Speaker 3: to do with conference standings. I know it doesn't have
Speaker 3: anything to do honestly with anything. Usually that game means
Speaker 3: nothing to either team when it comes to a bowl
Speaker 3: game or you know, a playoff appearance. It's usually just
Speaker 3: about bragging rights, and that stuff matters a lot when
Speaker 3: it comes to a rivalry. So what I'm getting at
Speaker 3: is they have this complex of like, well, you know,
Speaker 3: we even when we are really good for our historical standard,
Speaker 3: there's really not much else to show for it. We
Speaker 3: usually finished three and five or four and four in
Speaker 3: our league, despite getting seven wins in the regular season,
Speaker 3: and then again they had two ten win seasons which
Speaker 3: were special. But you go back and look at that
Speaker 3: from top to bottom. The one year they did have
Speaker 3: a I mean, that was a big, big year form
Speaker 3: not just for who they were, but they ended up
Speaker 3: beating was it they beat Penn State in that bowl game?
Speaker 3: That was a good win form like that is a notable,
Speaker 3: memorable season, maybe one of the best ever for them.
Speaker 3: And then you know, since then, you know, they've been
Speaker 3: kind of average. They did have another ten win season
Speaker 3: that has since been vacated, but even that year, you know.
Speaker 2: Hard to say that that.
Speaker 3: They can't control it, right, They happen to run into
Speaker 3: LSU when they fired at they happened to, you know,
Speaker 3: beat Florida whenever. You know, was that Dan Mullins last
Speaker 3: year and then he got canned after he lost to Kentucky. Again,
Speaker 3: they can't control that. Those teams probably were expected to
Speaker 3: be pretty good and they just weren't. So I don't
Speaker 3: know why Louisville fans go back and forth. Again, part
Speaker 3: of me says, well, no brainer, it's because it's a rivalry,
Speaker 3: and you're always going to go back and forth and
Speaker 3: be caddy and be petty with the other side. But
Speaker 3: like Louisville fans need to understand that Kentucky will always
Speaker 3: be able to for the most part, be able to
Speaker 3: hold it over our head. At the end of the year,
Speaker 3: they played a tougher schedule because of their conference. Their
Speaker 3: conference is better than ours, it's not questionable. So what
Speaker 3: it usually comes down to is, you know, did they
Speaker 3: have a season where they played anybody in the non conference? Well,
Speaker 3: they never do, and the only time they ever have
Speaker 3: a non conference notable opponent is when Louisvill's pretty good.
Speaker 3: So just accept the fact that they bring up the
Speaker 3: schedule because it's one of the things they feel like
Speaker 3: they can throw out there that solid defies them. That Yeah,
Speaker 3: even the Louisville played in their conference championship, even the
Speaker 3: Louisville's been in two BCS Bowl games, even though Louisville
Speaker 3: has a Heisman Trophy winner, even the Louisville historian. You know,
Speaker 3: in the modern era of college football, since they stopped
Speaker 3: playing with leather helmets, Louisville has been a better program.
Speaker 3: And it's not that Louisvill's become, you know, like a juggernaut.
Speaker 3: Trust me, they're not. But Kentucky has been a bottom
Speaker 3: feeder of the SEC historically. They're not that now and
Speaker 3: that has since changed, There's no doubt about that. But like,
Speaker 3: don't let their oh, well, that the reason that they have,
Speaker 3: the reason Lamar Jackson won the Heisman trophies because he
Speaker 3: played in the ACC and it's like a high school
Speaker 3: league and he put up big numbers against like all
Speaker 3: the high school teams and that's why he got Heisman
Speaker 3: just because of the conference.
Speaker 2: That's the thing.
Speaker 3: The conference is so bad. That's why they win games.
Speaker 3: That's how they have these all these accomplishments because they're
Speaker 3: com And now again I'm willing to acknowledge that if
Speaker 3: in fact Louisville played in the SEC and had a
Speaker 3: tougher schedule, would they have had seasons where they found
Speaker 3: themselves in the Sugar Bowl or the Orange Bowl.
Speaker 2: We'll never know.
Speaker 3: I mean, I happen to think that they had a
Speaker 3: couple of teams that were really good that could have
Speaker 3: still got there. So it amuses me, but it is
Speaker 3: one of the things that triggers me because I can
Speaker 3: I can I can stay out of the of the
Speaker 3: U of the trenches if you will? With the rivalry
Speaker 3: back and forth on a lot of stuff, because I
Speaker 3: know because it's one of those things where it's like,
Speaker 3: what are we doing here? You're never going to change
Speaker 3: my mind. I'm never gonna change your mind because we
Speaker 3: are quite clear and set on how we feel about
Speaker 3: the rivalry. So like why are we yelling at each other?
Speaker 3: That's the way I now approach and I have approached
Speaker 3: my Kentucky fan friends and family for many years, like
Speaker 3: there's no reason to yell like I'm gonna hate Kentucky,
Speaker 3: You're gonna hate Louisville. Could we could argue, but like,
Speaker 3: no matter what, none of us is going here's what's
Speaker 3: not gonna happen. Neither is going to concede that you're right,
Speaker 3: I'm wrong, I'm wrong, you're right. And also we're never
Speaker 3: going to change our opinion on how we view each
Speaker 3: side of it. But the one of the few things
Speaker 3: that still times get get in the weeds about is
Speaker 3: the schedule thing, because it really is a nonsensical thing
Speaker 3: that Kentucky can you could they look they've beat Louisville
Speaker 3: for for how many years now, like there's no doubt
Speaker 3: about that, but this year, the fact that Louisville is
Speaker 3: getting a lot more votes than them, most people project
Speaker 3: Louisville to be a you know, have a better year.
Speaker 3: Maybe not everybody, but you know, consensuously, there's more. There's
Speaker 3: more talk of Louisville potentially being you know, a top
Speaker 3: twenty caliber team that Kentucky. At least that's what I've gathered.
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm a homer for seeing it that way, but
Speaker 3: that's at least the noise out there. But anyways, you
Speaker 3: know it, Sometimes Kentucky will get to the end of
Speaker 3: the year and not have a win against anybody with
Speaker 3: a winning record, and they claim, well, it's the sec Well,
Speaker 3: like last year, the only win they had against the
Speaker 3: team that with a winning record was Louisville. So that's
Speaker 3: that goes back to last year's loss being like the
Speaker 3: worst one you could take because it's the one year
Speaker 3: you don't lose. I mean, they limped into that game
Speaker 3: feeling like their team was big time underachievers that season.
Speaker 3: Their coach earlier in the year told them to sack
Speaker 3: up and pay more money. It was it wasn't sack
Speaker 3: up was it poniu niup, so you know, and then
Speaker 3: they still beat you. They had no wins to show.
Speaker 3: There was nothing on paper that said that Kentucky was
Speaker 3: going to be better. They were big time underdogs in
Speaker 3: that game for the rivalry, and yet they still beat you.
Speaker 3: And that's like, that's why it was one of the
Speaker 3: most painful losses to take in that rivalry. Now, the
Speaker 3: one thing that makes it a little less painful. Well,
Speaker 3: put it this way. That loss sucked and there's no
Speaker 3: way around it. But I can still look at year
Speaker 3: one at Louisville and see what was accomplished big picture,
Speaker 3: know that it was Bram's first year and feel like, yeah,
Speaker 3: even though it ended poorly, three straight losses and a
Speaker 3: loss to your rival that you should not have lost
Speaker 3: at home, you'd be a fool to not say ten
Speaker 3: wins in year one for Jeff was anything other than
Speaker 3: a success. So anyways, we'll get more into it later
Speaker 3: because you have some numbers to share to throw out
Speaker 3: that that'll I guess better explain why the conversation, why
Speaker 3: the endless debate about strength to schedule is silly for
Speaker 3: both sides, But also this whole thing is a reminder
Speaker 3: that we should have this game should be the first
Speaker 3: game of the season. And one thing that I will
Speaker 3: say like that I wasn't aware of for a long time,
Speaker 3: and I was talking.
Speaker 2: To somebody about this a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 3: Louisville asking if they could move that game to, you know,
Speaker 3: to the beginning of the season. Meaning they asked the ACC.
Speaker 3: That's not like a crazy request, and it like it
Speaker 3: wouldn't shock be if they said.
Speaker 2: Uh, well, if your opponent is cool with it, like
Speaker 2: we don't care.
Speaker 3: Like because it's rivalry weekend, right, like you've got you know,
Speaker 3: some of the big rivalries going on. But like in
Speaker 3: the ACC, I mean, do we think Georgia Tech and
Speaker 3: Georgia is that a big rivalry? I mean, I guess
Speaker 3: at one point back in the day it might have been,
Speaker 3: but like now, do we think that's a big rivalry?
Speaker 3: Like I mean, I think that's just a waste of
Speaker 3: a game here in recent years, like who ell a
Speaker 3: Clemson in South Carolina? I mean that that is usually
Speaker 3: a rivalry game, but Clemson has has dominated so I
Speaker 3: don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean, I.
Speaker 3: For for the last ten years roughly, I just believed,
Speaker 3: well that was it we'll never see this game played
Speaker 3: in the opener again, and I just have to live
Speaker 3: with it. And I still believe that it'll probably never
Speaker 3: be moved to the first game. But I don't think, like,
Speaker 3: if they really wanted to make it happen, I think they,
Speaker 3: I think they could they. You know, it's worth a try,
Speaker 3: It's worth a try.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 3: We're going to try to make this the best show ever.
Speaker 3: I mean, we try to do that every day. But
Speaker 3: you know, we've got some obstacles working against us today
Speaker 3: when it comes to the way we are set up.
Speaker 3: But you know, from when I've gathered, you know, anytime
Speaker 3: I start to complain about worried about quality, I do
Speaker 3: get texts on my own phone, not the text line
Speaker 3: from people like hey you sound fun, Hey sounds good,
Speaker 3: or what the hell you're talking about?
Speaker 2: You sound great?
Speaker 3: Just to show things like that, like those, those are
Speaker 3: the responses that we get. So hey, when need to
Speaker 3: get to our first break, we'll keep it rolling along
Speaker 3: until six o'clock. A lot to get into today, folks,
Speaker 3: I mean, I know, I kind of just jumped in
Speaker 3: there with our technical issues as well as you know,
Speaker 3: the whole schedule, strength, the schedule kind of stuff. But
Speaker 3: if Louisville basketball's looking for somebody to prop up there
Speaker 3: as the hater, the guy that's fueling motivation for Pat
Speaker 3: Kelsey and his team in year one, the guy's there
Speaker 3: and it's John Ross team. We'll talk a little bit
Speaker 3: about that and again get to the text line five
Speaker 3: O two six five three zero seven ninety. It's the
Speaker 3: Ellen and Federal Credit Union text line, and we'll keep
Speaker 3: it rolling along. It's Coffee and Company. We are fueled
Speaker 3: about Thorton's right here on Sports Talk seven ninety.
Speaker 1: That's right, This is Coffee and Company fueled by Thornton's
Speaker 1: right here on Sports Talk seven ninety. So you may
Speaker 1: be wondering, why is the company man? John? Bring us
Speaker 1: back if you just happen to stop buying miss the
Speaker 1: opening segment of the show. Well, Nick is with us.
Speaker 1: He's back at his home studio. We are trying to
Speaker 1: avoid the unfortunate error that sometimes happens where you hear
Speaker 1: the underwater unintentional sound effects. Let's go ahead and see Nick,
Speaker 1: are you still with us?
Speaker 2: I think you're coming from my job. That sounded amazing,
Speaker 2: That was smooth, that was relaxed, good stuff. Good stuff.
Speaker 2: I'm proud.
Speaker 3: I mean, this is a clop going on right now
Speaker 3: and it's above water. Just to make sure it's getting
Speaker 3: it's getting to who it needs to get to. But yes,
Speaker 3: well done. Appreciates you.
Speaker 2: John.
Speaker 3: Again, that's why he's the company man. And we got
Speaker 3: to improvise, We got to do things a little bit differently.
Speaker 3: He has no problem.
Speaker 2: He'd do whatever's needed for the show.
Speaker 3: Again, that's why he's the company man. All right, let's
Speaker 3: go to the text line five O two sixty five
Speaker 3: three zero seven ninety. It's the L and N Federal
Speaker 3: Credit Union text line. This text says, Nick, I gotta
Speaker 3: be honest with you. I listen in my car every day.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of outside noise. I'm pretty sure I
Speaker 3: would never know if you were doing your show in
Speaker 3: studio or doing it underground. And then he went on
Speaker 3: to kind of say I should probably just not talk
Speaker 3: about it. Well, maybe you're right, but again, if anything,
Speaker 3: I'm honest, and if I'm not myself and I'm distracted,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you guys what I'm distracted by.
Speaker 2: And again.
Speaker 3: Not that I've been accused of this, and I hope
Speaker 3: nobody listening from our team said it like, this is
Speaker 3: nobody's fault.
Speaker 2: This is me.
Speaker 3: I had to do the show remotely today and this
Speaker 3: is the equipment that I had to use, and you
Speaker 3: know it's working.
Speaker 2: We're fine.
Speaker 3: But I've always said this when it comes to doing
Speaker 3: really anything in broadcasting, whether it be radio, television, you know,
Speaker 3: just live on anything. I think other than knowing what
Speaker 3: you're talking about, or you don't really have to know
Speaker 3: what you're talking about to be honest with you, I
Speaker 3: think there's a lot of great examples of that. But
Speaker 3: my point is being comfortable, and if I'm not comfortable,
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm going to be worse than I
Speaker 3: typically am anyway.
Speaker 1: And I want to add to that nick too. I
Speaker 1: think sometimes addressing what makes you uncomfortable, especially on the air,
Speaker 1: helps it kind of go away, the uncomfortability of it,
Speaker 1: and you just kind of put it on the back
Speaker 1: burner once you've addressed it. I mean, I know we're
Speaker 1: still talking about it now the way that we did
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the show, but I do feel
Speaker 1: like it's a lot more loose than maybe it started
Speaker 1: off as.
Speaker 2: No doubt about it.
Speaker 3: And I also think like transparency is important in everything.
Speaker 3: So there's there's been very few instances ever in my
Speaker 3: in my time in radio where I felt like we
Speaker 3: really needed to talk about something. People tuning in expected
Speaker 3: me to talk about something and I simply couldn't. But
Speaker 3: so there's been probably three, maybe four times that that happened,
Speaker 3: But there's only been once where I felt like it
Speaker 3: was unreasonable for me to not be allowed to address
Speaker 3: it discuss it clear the air. The other times like
Speaker 3: it is what it is, right, Like I don't like it,
Speaker 3: nobody likes it, but we can't talk about it. But
Speaker 3: there's only been one time where I felt like, Hey,
Speaker 3: why are you guys gonna make me act like this
Speaker 3: isn't clearly something that everybody needs to discuss.
Speaker 2: And wants to discuss.
Speaker 3: And you may you may have a guess as to
Speaker 3: what that is, maybe you don't, But anyways, that's that's
Speaker 3: that's in the past and we're rolling forward here in
Speaker 3: the future. But this text, uh, this is a good one,
Speaker 3: this text. And I didn't know this was a thing,
Speaker 3: but I'm now seeing here. I thought somebody was just
Speaker 3: trolling on the text line saying that they're cleaning the
Speaker 3: stench off the Young Center that Kenny Pain and a
Speaker 3: lousy staff left. I didn't really know what that meant.
Speaker 3: And then somebody took a picture of what looks to
Speaker 3: be a screenshop from a news station and sure enough,
Speaker 3: youm center cleaning. First thing that pops up here on
Speaker 3: Google for me is from WLKY, our partners over there
Speaker 3: at news channel thirty two WKY, they've got a story
Speaker 3: on a cleaning that is going on. I guess as
Speaker 3: we speak this was posted earlier this afternoon, about an
Speaker 3: hour and a half ago. That yeah, I'll read directly
Speaker 3: from wkyses. Ever, wonder how all those windows outside the
Speaker 3: KFCM Center get cleaned For the first time ever. The
Speaker 3: entire facade got a cleaning on Wednesday, and they use
Speaker 3: some innovative technology to get a massive to get the
Speaker 3: massive project done, WLKY news chopper was outside a large
Speaker 3: drone clean was outside of a large drone cleaned each window.
Speaker 3: So drones are being used for a lot of things,
Speaker 3: and I guess cleaning humongous facilities like the Yum Center
Speaker 3: is one of them. This is a This is a
Speaker 3: statement from one of the Young Center officials.
Speaker 2: Here.
Speaker 3: It says drone power washing technology represents a significant advancement
Speaker 3: in exterior cleaning. By employing drones equipped with specialized cleaning equipment,
Speaker 3: the Young Center will benefit from a highly efficient and
Speaker 3: precise cleaning process, minimize disruption, and maximize effectiveness.
Speaker 2: So there you go, they're.
Speaker 3: Cleaning the drone. And as much as you know, I
Speaker 3: am not sensitive or offended bothered by any Kenny Payne
Speaker 3: criticism and slander. You know, I feel comfortable in saying
Speaker 3: they're not cleaning it because of anything that Kenny Paine
Speaker 3: and his staff did. They didn't do enough in there
Speaker 3: for it to get dirty, if we're being honest. In fact,
Speaker 3: I think it might have been. Chris Hatfield, a Louisville
Speaker 3: Big Louisville fan who's active on Twitter in the Louisville community,
Speaker 3: he posted something the other day that, really it might
Speaker 3: have been yesterday. I've been out of it the last
Speaker 3: two days. I'm kind of out of it now to
Speaker 3: be honest with you, But there was a video that
Speaker 3: the UL basketball team posted on their t Twitter account
Speaker 3: in October of twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2: And you may wonder, well, you know, why is that relevant?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 2: And it wasn't at the time. And I'll admit I didn't.
Speaker 3: There's many things I could and people said I was
Speaker 3: nitpicking and I was going out of my way to create,
Speaker 3: you know, drama and create concern for people about Kenny
Speaker 3: Payne as a coach whenever. I mean, there were countless
Speaker 3: examples and signs of things I said, oh, this ain't good.
Speaker 3: One of them was not when the when the team
Speaker 3: was at the Young Center. But think about this, like
Speaker 3: Louisville put together a brand new, brand new staff, br
Speaker 3: me entirely new team is in place here and we've
Speaker 3: already seen these guys playing in the Bahamas.
Speaker 2: We have you know, we have.
Speaker 3: A show with two of the players that you can
Speaker 3: watch on YouTube with Caseon Pryor and Noah Waterman. Kelsey's
Speaker 3: done every interview he's been asked of. I feel like,
Speaker 3: you know, these players have been active on social to
Speaker 3: see the team losing their mind over the villa and
Speaker 3: the TBT event meaning the current team, that was a
Speaker 3: awesome So things have been perfect for Pat Kelsey in
Speaker 3: this time. And that's not to say he hasn't missed
Speaker 3: on a player or anything like that, but I mean,
Speaker 3: as far as all you can do when you get
Speaker 3: the job in March to today, August fourteenth, Pat kelse
Speaker 3: to me has done everything right and he's done exactly
Speaker 3: what he was hired to do. Put together a good staff,
Speaker 3: build a roster right away that fans can feel good about.
Speaker 3: As far as the potential of having a winner and
Speaker 3: inject life and enthusiasm back in the fan base, he's
Speaker 3: done all that. So two years ago, when Kenny Paine
Speaker 3: took over, Kenny Payne's team didn't get to the Yumps
Speaker 3: Center and see the arena until October. Think about that again,
Speaker 3: might sound like a little thing, but again, it's just
Speaker 3: things like that really put in perspective the vast difference
Speaker 3: in culture among these two regimes. Clearly one was a failure,
Speaker 3: one of the worst hires ever made in sports. The
Speaker 3: other is a guy who has been super successful and
Speaker 3: has a winning formula, has a great culture, and now
Speaker 3: he's brought it here. And now we wait and see, right,
Speaker 3: does it carry over? Does it translate? Fingers crossed that
Speaker 3: it does, And we'll talk a little more about Louisville
Speaker 3: hoops later, because again I've been back and forth on
Speaker 3: feeling like I am legitimately able to be offended at
Speaker 3: Louisville and their lack of respect from the college football world.
Speaker 2: Which, again, to be honest.
Speaker 3: With you, it's a force to say they're being disrespected.
Speaker 3: But there's enough there to where if you really wanted
Speaker 3: to pump up this fan base and the team, like hey,
Speaker 3: they still don't think you guys are that good.
Speaker 2: You could do it again.
Speaker 3: It's a force to say they're being disrespected. But with basketball,
Speaker 3: I don't really know how I'm going to look at it,
Speaker 3: because they've Anybody that hasn't followed closely would just assume
Speaker 3: Louisville will be a lot better next year.
Speaker 2: Under Pat Kelsey.
Speaker 3: But you know that might mean like fifteen wins because
Speaker 3: they only won four and then eight, and who knows,
Speaker 3: maybe that person will be right. But I think if
Speaker 3: you're paying close enough attention and you look at what
Speaker 3: league Louisville plays in, which hate to say it, folks,
Speaker 3: I know we shake pomp poms for league affiliation every
Speaker 3: now and then. The ACC basketball I don't expect it
Speaker 3: to be very good this year, which could benefit Louisville.
Speaker 3: So you know, I'm going to understand and have a
Speaker 3: little bit more, you know, understanding for why people might
Speaker 3: downplay Louisville basketball being good.
Speaker 2: It's just because the.
Speaker 3: Recent memory was that they were so bad, like really bad.
Speaker 3: I mean, Louisville being as bad as they were was
Speaker 3: somewhat of a national story within college basketball. It didn't
Speaker 3: lead Sports Center, it wasn't you know, it wasn't something
Speaker 3: that everybody was consumed by. But last year, specifically because
Speaker 3: it was year two, if Kenny and you were having
Speaker 3: embarrassing losses, I mean, especially when you got to you know,
Speaker 3: into December January. At that point, you know, you started
Speaker 3: talking about which teams are really good, who's the surprise team, who's.
Speaker 2: The dud team?
Speaker 3: You know, who's looking like they may be a contender
Speaker 3: for All American Player of the Year. And then, oh, man,
Speaker 3: can you believe how bad Louisvill has become? Like that
Speaker 3: was a real thing. So it'll be understanding as to
Speaker 3: why there's a little bit of a lack of respect,
Speaker 3: I suppose, or lack of you know, belief that they're
Speaker 3: going to be good. But if you're paying close enough attention,
Speaker 3: I think you could look at this team and say, yeah,
Speaker 3: I'd be shocked if they don't make the tournament. Well,
Speaker 3: there's one guy who has a huge following that covers
Speaker 3: college troops, and I was blown away when I saw
Speaker 3: where he ranks Louisville among ACC teams.
Speaker 2: Have you seen this yet, John.
Speaker 1: I haven't.
Speaker 3: We'll get to it in the four o'clock hour. I mean,
Speaker 3: you're not going to have your jaw on the floor
Speaker 3: because you know you don't really care.
Speaker 1: But like.
Speaker 2: Rostein, like I don't know. I mean, is he not
Speaker 2: a I'm glad you.
Speaker 3: I'm glad you positioned it that way because you you
Speaker 3: asked the way you were did that?
Speaker 2: Is he not a believer? Puts me a little bit
Speaker 2: more what's the right word to use here?
Speaker 3: What it does is it it makes me look at
Speaker 3: it from like, Okay, it's not about like him being
Speaker 3: a hater, Like maybe he just doesn't think that we
Speaker 3: are just in our expectation of the with this team,
Speaker 3: given all the players he's added. But I just don't
Speaker 3: know if anybody else would put Louisville where he did.
Speaker 2: That's my thing.
Speaker 3: And for those who don't know, out of the what
Speaker 3: sixteen teams in the Ages, I guess there's more now
Speaker 3: because you've added Stanford, Cal and SMU, he has Louisville
Speaker 3: as the eleventh best team in the ACC, and like,
Speaker 3: I just I think that's insane, And I don't think
Speaker 3: me thinking that that's insane has anything to do with
Speaker 3: me being a big Louisville fan.
Speaker 2: Like I mean, coming six or seven.
Speaker 1: You talk about the AEC not being one of the
Speaker 1: better power leagues at least especially in the last few years,
Speaker 1: and if Louisville is going to take a step forward,
Speaker 1: you think that by in like minimum expectations, maybe like
Speaker 1: sixth or seventh in the ACC might be at worst
Speaker 1: if they're gonna take a step forward. Maybe again, maybe
Speaker 1: I'm wrong.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, I know they were dead last
Speaker 3: and there's clearly an acclamation process with you know, a
Speaker 3: new team. But again, honestly, I think this team is
Speaker 3: good enough to genuinely be a top twenty five caliber
Speaker 3: team throughout the year that safely makes the tournament.
Speaker 2: I mean I believe that.
Speaker 3: I don't and I don't think that's like a bold
Speaker 3: statement to be honest with you. But I also think
Speaker 3: that you know, others will see, well, hey, this guy.
Speaker 2: Came from Charleston.
Speaker 3: He wasn't even a I mean, let's be honest about
Speaker 3: Pat Kelsey here, and I love him by the way
Speaker 3: he may end up being a bad coach. He doesn't
Speaker 3: win games, and that'll obviously be a bummer. But like
Speaker 3: I think Josh heard, even though it wasn't his first, second,
Speaker 3: or seemingly third choice as far as who he wanted
Speaker 3: to hire. I mean, Pat, Pat check's a box that
Speaker 3: was so badly needed, and I think we knew it
Speaker 3: was needed. But man, now that he's here and he's
Speaker 3: checked that important box, like it's almost a reminder. Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: there's a reason why Josh Hurd's more qualified to hire
Speaker 3: a coach than me, you know what I mean, Because
Speaker 3: we got to get fan enthusiasm, we got to get
Speaker 3: people excited, and Kelsey hadn't coached a real game yet.
Speaker 3: But he is knocked it out of the park in
Speaker 3: that regard. But you know, others aren't looking at it
Speaker 3: that way, right like I.
Speaker 2: Think, and this is this is this is just the
Speaker 2: reality of it. We'll never know.
Speaker 3: But the buzz that Dusty may have at at FAU
Speaker 3: because he went to a final four, I feel like,
Speaker 3: even though in my opinion, Pat Kelsey is a better
Speaker 3: coach and has a chance. And again for those who
Speaker 3: claim like I'm no, go back and listen to anything.
Speaker 3: I was, I was leading, leading, I was enemy number
Speaker 3: one among louis Of fans because so many louis of
Speaker 3: fans wanted Dusty May. And I'm like, I don't, I
Speaker 3: don't see it. Like he had a Final four and
Speaker 3: that was cool, but like, other than that, what is
Speaker 3: there to show for this guy?
Speaker 2: Like what I mean, like, I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't think it's a fit. And it wasn't a fit.
Speaker 3: That's why he didn't come didn't come here. But you know,
Speaker 3: because he went to that final four?
Speaker 2: Would you agree with this?
Speaker 3: John someone who keeps you know, keeps your ear to
Speaker 3: the ground, you can check the pulse of college basketball
Speaker 3: like most college basketball fans can. There'd be more respect
Speaker 3: on Louisville's name if it was if it was if
Speaker 3: it was Dusty May, not Pat Kelsey Nationally don't.
Speaker 1: That's probably the case, just because more people outside of
Speaker 1: the Louisville area and know who Dusty May is as opposed.
Speaker 3: Sure because of the final four, right, yes, I mean
Speaker 3: that's that's what it comes down to. So anyways, I
Speaker 3: don't want to claim that like it's the most egregious
Speaker 3: thing ever, but like here I am once again, like, hey,
Speaker 3: am I turning into like a big homer because I
Speaker 3: think Louisville's team is at worst a top five ACC team.
Speaker 3: And again I say that mostly because I don't think
Speaker 3: the ACC is going to be very good league. But anyways,
Speaker 3: we got to get to a break. We will keep
Speaker 3: this thing rolling along. It's coffee and Company. We are
Speaker 3: fuel about Thornton's right here on Sports Talk seven ninety.
Speaker 1: That's right, this is Coffee and Company, fueled by Thornton's
Speaker 1: right here on Sports Talk seven ninety. Nick is with us.
Speaker 1: I just got to raise him up from the water
Speaker 1: from his submarine here as we get the final segment
Speaker 1: of the three o'clock hour started, Nicky with.
Speaker 2: Us, I am emerged water.
Speaker 3: I'm here and long feeling good, and so I have
Speaker 3: to ask you this, John, And I meant to ask
Speaker 3: you this before the show because it really isn't something
Speaker 3: that is probably even you know, needed, But we have
Speaker 3: such a little time here.
Speaker 2: And it's driving me crazy.
Speaker 3: Did you do an impression the other day off the
Speaker 3: cuff on the show that ended up being like really
Speaker 3: good to where you even agreed like you or did
Speaker 3: I dream that? And that was that like a pain
Speaker 3: pill induced dream.
Speaker 1: I've I mean, I've done them now and again, but
Speaker 1: I don't remember if I did anything overtly exceptional. If
Speaker 1: I did, I'll take the credit. I guess right.
Speaker 3: I feel like it would be we were on the air,
Speaker 3: or we were talking, but not on the air. I
Speaker 3: think that's that might have been what it was. Yeah, anyways,
Speaker 3: he did an impression, and visually I could see that
Speaker 3: after doing it, he kind of perked up, like, Oh,
Speaker 3: did somebody just overtake the company man's body? Because you
Speaker 3: sounded exactly like who you were trying to do an
Speaker 3: impression of. But the more I think about it, the
Speaker 3: more I think it was a dream because I.
Speaker 1: Had Now that you say it, I wish I have
Speaker 1: no clue who we're talking about. I know this conversation happened,
Speaker 1: and I do believe it was off the air, but
Speaker 1: I don't remember who I was doing an impression of.
Speaker 2: Would it have been Vinetti?
Speaker 1: I've done it, We've all done our fair share of
Speaker 1: Anettie impressions. It very well could have been.
Speaker 3: It's one of those things that will and it really
Speaker 3: doesn't matter. But it's going to drive me crazy because
Speaker 3: I had actually a real dream last night. I know
Speaker 3: this wasn't really a thing, but maybe it will be
Speaker 3: down the line that you left the show to do
Speaker 3: comedy impressions like Jay Farrow, who we had on you know,
Speaker 3: months ago when he was in town. Like that, that's
Speaker 3: what you went off to do. And I remember, like
Speaker 3: in the dream, I was like, well, I'll always be
Speaker 3: able to tell everybody that I was the guy who
Speaker 3: first heard him realize he had this talent to do
Speaker 3: impressions and what reminded me of it? And this couldn't
Speaker 3: be what made me think of this and make me
Speaker 3: have this dream because it's not really an impression. But
Speaker 3: John said he was going to walk away from the
Speaker 3: during I mean, yeah, he wasn't in that. So take
Speaker 3: us rap and smoke. Might if coach Signetti Kurt Signette
Speaker 3: at Indiana tells him to start smoking, John might buy
Speaker 3: a carton on the way home today because that's how
Speaker 3: fired up he is for the future of Indiana football.
Speaker 2: But you did a vision. You made the sound of
Speaker 2: a cigarette lighting.
Speaker 1: Do it.
Speaker 2: That's your mouth right, my mouth, yet it sounds like
Speaker 2: you're a lighter thing.
Speaker 1: I'll tell that.
Speaker 2: But that wouldn't have been.
Speaker 1: What we know different from that I say this now too,
Speaker 1: though you've now had dreams. So you've had a dream
Speaker 1: about me going off through stand up. You've also had
Speaker 1: a dream where I was arrested because I was supposedly
Speaker 1: a part of the January sixth incident.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they took you off the air, so
Speaker 3: you know, I mean the dream about you becoming an
Speaker 3: impression is not a bad one, and I was. I
Speaker 3: was flustered there because I don't want you know, everybody's
Speaker 3: so triggered with every little political thought obvious which hey
Speaker 3: end up producer because came for his.
Speaker 2: Capital.
Speaker 3: But you know, that's an society. I wouldn't want that
Speaker 3: to happen to anybody that I know and work with.
Speaker 3: But you know, I kind of thought maybe saying that,
Speaker 3: would you know, Oh this guy, he's left. He's at
Speaker 3: it again, that liberal scumbag. I've been called that before,
Speaker 3: by the way, called worse. But you know, anyways, John's
Speaker 3: gonna work on his impressions. As we take our top
