WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:02.439
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's get the eight o'clock hour started, shall we.

2
00:00:02.480 --> 00:00:04.040
<v Speaker 2>It is eight oh five here at Kentucky in this

3
00:00:04.120 --> 00:00:07.440
<v Speaker 2>morning news on news Radio eight forty whas Nick coffee

4
00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:12.320
<v Speaker 2>with you. Another reminder that they are seeking input when

5
00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:15.599
<v Speaker 2>it comes to I guess a new area code in

6
00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:17.719
<v Speaker 2>the future. We've talked about it throughout the week. The

7
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:20.600
<v Speaker 2>area code five oh two is it's not coming to

8
00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:24.280
<v Speaker 2>an end because if you have a phone that where

9
00:00:24.280 --> 00:00:26.160
<v Speaker 2>your numbers five oh two, you're good. But in the

10
00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:29.359
<v Speaker 2>future that is going to run out. The different variations

11
00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:30.960
<v Speaker 2>in which you can have a phone number with the

12
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:33.320
<v Speaker 2>area code five oh two, we're going.

13
00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:34.079
<v Speaker 1>To run out of them.

14
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:39.000
<v Speaker 2>So they're seeking input Tonight at the JCC Southwest location

15
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:42.679
<v Speaker 2>at six o'clock they're going to have a meeting with

16
00:00:42.759 --> 00:00:46.320
<v Speaker 2>the public as the Kentucky Public Service Commission is seeking

17
00:00:46.359 --> 00:00:49.159
<v Speaker 2>input on this. So I just want to remind you

18
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:52.520
<v Speaker 2>guys of that. But I would not have gotten an

19
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:54.679
<v Speaker 2>one hundred percent score on this test. But I'm gonna test.

20
00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:56.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna ask you guys how you would do on

21
00:00:56.240 --> 00:01:01.159
<v Speaker 2>this test. There are in the state of Kentucky, there

22
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:06.040
<v Speaker 2>are five different area codes. Can you name all five?

23
00:01:06.319 --> 00:01:09.040
<v Speaker 2>Either of you, because I'll tell you I got four.

24
00:01:09.079 --> 00:01:10.760
<v Speaker 2>I would have never guessed. I would have never known

25
00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:11.239
<v Speaker 2>of the fifth.

26
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:13.640
<v Speaker 1>We alternate, Scott, you and I. Yeah, go ahead by

27
00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:15.599
<v Speaker 1>to work as a team here. You want to do

28
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:16.319
<v Speaker 1>it all right?

29
00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:18.079
<v Speaker 3>Well, obviously there's the five oh two.

30
00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:20.359
<v Speaker 1>What say you, John? We'll go two seven oh? Okay,

31
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:24.959
<v Speaker 1>about six oh six? Yesh man, what's the Owensboro ones?

32
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:25.000
<v Speaker 3>That?

33
00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:27.319
<v Speaker 1>The one is that two seven zero eight five nine

34
00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:27.920
<v Speaker 1>eight five nine.

35
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:31.560
<v Speaker 2>That's one? Okay, So you guys are now four of

36
00:01:31.640 --> 00:01:34.000
<v Speaker 2>four and then the fifth one. So I think we

37
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:36.000
<v Speaker 2>would have done the same. I don't I did not

38
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:37.760
<v Speaker 2>even know there was a fifth area code.

39
00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:39.760
<v Speaker 4>Is it the southeastern portion of the state that this

40
00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:41.359
<v Speaker 4>one covers, because I don't think I think that's the

41
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:42.040
<v Speaker 4>one we're missing.

42
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:44.879
<v Speaker 1>Yes, go for it.

43
00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:47.879
<v Speaker 2>Three six four if you I had no idea, Yeah,

44
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:50.599
<v Speaker 2>I mean I can't think of I mean yes. It

45
00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:53.439
<v Speaker 2>says that the three six four area code is an

46
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:56.640
<v Speaker 2>overlay for the two seven oh area code in Kentucky,

47
00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:01.120
<v Speaker 2>primary primarily serving Okay. It's western and south sent part

48
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:04.879
<v Speaker 2>of Kentucky, So the majority of the cities that do

49
00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:09.319
<v Speaker 2>have the three six four area code are around Bowling Green,

50
00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:14.840
<v Speaker 2>but it looks like Hopkinsville, Owensboro and Paducah, Kentucky, which

51
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:17.800
<v Speaker 2>that makes sense. You know. Paducah, Kentucky is a place

52
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:20.960
<v Speaker 2>that I've been to it a couple of times, and

53
00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:23.680
<v Speaker 2>just because it's so far away from here, you know,

54
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:25.599
<v Speaker 2>you don't often think about it being one of the

55
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:28.520
<v Speaker 2>bigger cities in our state, but it certainly is. I

56
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:31.520
<v Speaker 2>just don't think i've ever I've ever looked at a

57
00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:33.319
<v Speaker 2>number that I looked for a number that I needed

58
00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:36.039
<v Speaker 2>and noticed a three six four area code. And I

59
00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:37.919
<v Speaker 2>don't think I know of anybody that's ever given me

60
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:39.599
<v Speaker 2>a number with a three six four area code. But

61
00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:43.560
<v Speaker 2>then again, with cell phones being the way that we

62
00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:47.360
<v Speaker 2>mostly communicate now, and once you save a contact and

63
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:50.960
<v Speaker 2>then you really don't I mean, I maybe somebody did

64
00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:52.199
<v Speaker 2>give me it. So if you gave me a three

65
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:54.520
<v Speaker 2>six four area code and we talked regularly and I

66
00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:57.039
<v Speaker 2>didn't remember, don't take it personal. Nobody remembers anybody's phone

67
00:02:57.080 --> 00:02:59.240
<v Speaker 2>number anymore. That's just not a thing. It's something we've

68
00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:01.199
<v Speaker 2>talked about, talked about throughout the week.

69
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:04.520
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, I had no idea. So now, at least if

70
00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:06.800
<v Speaker 3>we get this, what cracks me up. Is we're gonna

71
00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:08.439
<v Speaker 3>have hearings on this? I mean, is there someone who's

72
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:11.840
<v Speaker 3>vehemently opposed to having another Harry code?

73
00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:14.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if we run out of numbers, you're run

74
00:03:14.400 --> 00:03:15.400
<v Speaker 1>out of numbers, right right?

75
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:17.240
<v Speaker 3>Are there people that show up and go, no, I

76
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:19.639
<v Speaker 3>don't want that area code? I mean, what do we

77
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:20.840
<v Speaker 3>discuss at these meetings?

78
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:21.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't know.

79
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.639
<v Speaker 2>I guess just input on maybe what maybe what the

80
00:03:24.759 --> 00:03:25.439
<v Speaker 2>number would mean.

81
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:26.759
<v Speaker 1>Do you do you get the pick? I mean I

82
00:03:26.759 --> 00:03:27.199
<v Speaker 1>don't really.

83
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:31.800
<v Speaker 2>This is something that has existed these like these area

84
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:34.039
<v Speaker 2>codes we've discussed, the ones that we just ran through,

85
00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:37.560
<v Speaker 2>they've been in existence seemingly forever. Therefore, it's not a

86
00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:40.520
<v Speaker 2>process that we typically typically run into. Also, another story

87
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:42.560
<v Speaker 2>that we followed this week is after back to back

88
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:46.960
<v Speaker 2>weekends with a certain area on Barstown Road near their

89
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:50.680
<v Speaker 2>Highlands having I think upwards of four hundred people just

90
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:53.919
<v Speaker 2>out in. You know, obviously we know what's been going on,

91
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:57.719
<v Speaker 2>blocking traffic, dancing on cars. So obviously Mayor Greenberg as

92
00:03:57.719 --> 00:04:00.280
<v Speaker 2>well as Chief Humphrey, they've talked throughout the week letting

93
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:02.680
<v Speaker 2>you know that they're gonna do it. Basically, there's nothing

94
00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:04.439
<v Speaker 2>off the table as far as what they need to

95
00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:06.360
<v Speaker 2>do in regards to get this thing under control. So

96
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:09.520
<v Speaker 2>we now have a second business that has decided to

97
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:13.000
<v Speaker 2>close their doors a little bit earlier from four am

98
00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:16.360
<v Speaker 2>to two am. So it was Highlands Taperm initially now

99
00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:22.480
<v Speaker 2>the Taco Bell. Oh wow, I bet that's is so busy. Yeah,

100
00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:25.120
<v Speaker 2>at that time of night. I mean right.

101
00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:27.639
<v Speaker 3>Right, I get that is a gutsy call because you're

102
00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:30.160
<v Speaker 3>right down in the middle of I mean, that's prime time.

103
00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:34.120
<v Speaker 2>And when it comes to that time of I was

104
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:37.279
<v Speaker 2>going to say evening, it's really morning, but that late

105
00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:41.319
<v Speaker 2>even the bars that are open aren't serving food anymore. No,

106
00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:45.040
<v Speaker 2>So Taco Bell, I mean they've probably got It's probably

107
00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:47.680
<v Speaker 2>a lot for those that are working that shift at

108
00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:50.560
<v Speaker 2>that time, just a lot to deal with, probably overwhelmed

109
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:54.560
<v Speaker 2>and take away the potential behavior issues with customers, but

110
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:57.120
<v Speaker 2>just the amount of people that are, you know, wanting

111
00:04:57.160 --> 00:04:59.120
<v Speaker 2>to eat at that time. And I doubt you're fully

112
00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:01.399
<v Speaker 2>staffed at that a day. But if you wrong, I

113
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:04.879
<v Speaker 2>forgot those they probably they probably dominate the competition in

114
00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:06.800
<v Speaker 2>that window atom because where else you're going to get

115
00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:09.639
<v Speaker 2>a bite to eat that lake at Taco Bell their fault.

116
00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:11.879
<v Speaker 2>They're trying to help as well. So maybe we'll see

117
00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:14.319
<v Speaker 2>more businesses in that area. Decided to close down a

118
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:17.279
<v Speaker 2>little bit earlier. Who knows just what impact that will have,

119
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:18.959
<v Speaker 2>but it certainly can't hurt things.

120
00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:21.399
<v Speaker 3>I'm surprised there's not more food trucks down there. Yeah,

121
00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:23.600
<v Speaker 3>you will have a food truck around four in the morning.

122
00:05:23.720 --> 00:05:24.639
<v Speaker 3>You may kill a business.

123
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:26.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh you would. I bet those.

124
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:28.199
<v Speaker 2>I bet those who used to Maybe it's still a thing.

125
00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:30.079
<v Speaker 2>They used to hustle hot dogs on the corner road

126
00:05:30.040 --> 00:05:31.399
<v Speaker 2>the street when people would leave bars.

127
00:05:31.399 --> 00:05:32.639
<v Speaker 1>I bet they make a killing.

128
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:33.600
<v Speaker 3>Those tasted so good.

129
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah they did.

130
00:05:34.920 --> 00:05:36.839
<v Speaker 2>The alcohol is probably a factor and why it tasted

131
00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:39.480
<v Speaker 2>so good, But they tasted good. You are right, all right,

132
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:41.519
<v Speaker 2>We've got an updated trafficking weather coming your way right

133
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:46.120
<v Speaker 2>here on news radio eight forty whas. It's eight sixteen

134
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:48.480
<v Speaker 2>here Kentucky had his morning news on news radio eight

135
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:51.800
<v Speaker 2>forty whas Nick coffee with you. We will talk to

136
00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:55.319
<v Speaker 2>ry O'Neill coming up here in about fifteen minutes and

137
00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:59.480
<v Speaker 2>get his thoughts on the big beautiful bill that President

138
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:02.720
<v Speaker 2>Trump has has certainly received some pushback on from some folks.

139
00:06:02.759 --> 00:06:04.639
<v Speaker 2>So we'll talk to Rory coming up here shortly. Also,

140
00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:07.720
<v Speaker 2>we'll have another update of sports with Scott Fitzgerald. And

141
00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:09.639
<v Speaker 2>as you likely know when we've discussed it this morning,

142
00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:12.000
<v Speaker 2>the NBA Finals will start tonight, and I already have

143
00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:15.040
<v Speaker 2>some fatigue when it comes to just one of the storylines.

144
00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:17.839
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know if it would be fair to

145
00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:21.279
<v Speaker 2>say that this is a non existent storyline that people

146
00:06:21.279 --> 00:06:24.959
<v Speaker 2>are forcing into being a storyline slash talking point, because

147
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:29.199
<v Speaker 2>it is somewhat unusual for the smaller market teams really

148
00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:31.879
<v Speaker 2>in any professional sport to end up playing each other

149
00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:34.839
<v Speaker 2>for the championship, the title, the super Bowl, whatever it is,

150
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:35.560
<v Speaker 2>the World Series.

151
00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:36.720
<v Speaker 1>But it does.

152
00:06:36.639 --> 00:06:40.079
<v Speaker 2>Happen, and there are some rare examples of small market

153
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:44.480
<v Speaker 2>pro teams that are super successful, like the Green Bay Packers.

154
00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:49.519
<v Speaker 2>I mean, so what annoys me is that it feeds

155
00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:51.639
<v Speaker 2>into something that I've noticed on the sports side for

156
00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:55.800
<v Speaker 2>a while now, that it's more about a popularity contest

157
00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:59.439
<v Speaker 2>than it is about actual results and the actual competition.

158
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:03.480
<v Speaker 2>Because when I keep hearing, well, the NBA, what are

159
00:07:03.480 --> 00:07:05.720
<v Speaker 2>they gonna do if it ends up being the thunder

160
00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:07.920
<v Speaker 2>and the Pacers, which we know that it is now,

161
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:11.639
<v Speaker 2>and I get it when it comes to it's not

162
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:14.120
<v Speaker 2>as ideal because it's.

163
00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:14.639
<v Speaker 1>But there's no fix for it.

164
00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:16.399
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there's never gonna be a scenario where the

165
00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Oklahoma City Thunder have as big of a fan base

166
00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:21.920
<v Speaker 2>as big of a reach as the New York Knicks.

167
00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:27.120
<v Speaker 2>That's just and that shouldn't ever be an expectation. So

168
00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:29.399
<v Speaker 2>the noise.

169
00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:32.000
<v Speaker 1>About how they fix it, how do they avoid this?

170
00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:35.160
<v Speaker 2>I mean they can't and they shouldn't try to avoid it,

171
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:36.920
<v Speaker 2>because you know, if your team wins and your team

172
00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:40.879
<v Speaker 2>is successful, you end up there. So this actually has

173
00:07:40.959 --> 00:07:42.680
<v Speaker 2>and I don't just say this as a Pacers fand

174
00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:44.600
<v Speaker 2>this actually has a chance to be a very very

175
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:49.079
<v Speaker 2>entertaining series, which I would think it would lead to

176
00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:53.000
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people viewing the game. So yeah, the

177
00:07:53.079 --> 00:07:56.560
<v Speaker 2>number may be down just because of people not being

178
00:07:56.639 --> 00:07:59.040
<v Speaker 2>as interested if it's not a huge market team that

179
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.160
<v Speaker 2>has one of the big spaces in the league, like

180
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:04.759
<v Speaker 2>a Lebron James or a Steph Curry. But you can't

181
00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:07.560
<v Speaker 2>really control that, and there's really no fix for that

182
00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:09.800
<v Speaker 2>unless you want to live in a world where we

183
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:12.680
<v Speaker 2>make it way more based off popularity rather than you know,

184
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:18.120
<v Speaker 2>competition and entertainment. And if you watch this series and

185
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:21.720
<v Speaker 2>you're not a fan of the Indiana Pacers or the

186
00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:26.439
<v Speaker 2>Oklahoma City Thunder, and it's really competitive, really entertaining, and

187
00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:30.519
<v Speaker 2>yet you have a moment while watching the product and think, yeah,

188
00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:34.000
<v Speaker 2>but maybe better if it was the Lakers or the Knicks.

189
00:08:34.120 --> 00:08:36.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, what, like, how does that? Why does that matter?

190
00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:39.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, why does who it is matter? If you're

191
00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:42.639
<v Speaker 2>actually getting the entertainment value from the series. It reminds

192
00:08:42.720 --> 00:08:44.360
<v Speaker 2>It reminds me a little bit of whenever you go

193
00:08:44.399 --> 00:08:47.440
<v Speaker 2>to a game. And this is a fight I used

194
00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:48.919
<v Speaker 2>to have with Louivill fans, because.

195
00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:49.159
<v Speaker 1>I get it.

196
00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:51.000
<v Speaker 2>You want a lot of You want a lot of

197
00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:53.559
<v Speaker 2>people to show up. Attendance is important for variety of reasons.

198
00:08:53.840 --> 00:08:56.559
<v Speaker 2>But you really can't control that. And why would you

199
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:58.519
<v Speaker 2>let that ruin your experience? If you paid your harder

200
00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:00.679
<v Speaker 2>money to show up to a game and you're there,

201
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:03.200
<v Speaker 2>you're excited, and you look around and notice some empty seats,

202
00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:06.759
<v Speaker 2>and it has changed the way you can enjoy that experience.

203
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:09.720
<v Speaker 1>That's a you problem. It reminds many people do that.

204
00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:12.080
<v Speaker 3>It reminds me a lot of the NCAA tournament where

205
00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:14.600
<v Speaker 3>everybody loves the underdogs to win, but when it comes

206
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:16.440
<v Speaker 3>down to the final four, they want the blue bloods.

207
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:18.879
<v Speaker 3>It also reminds me a lot of NASCAR people go, oh,

208
00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:21.679
<v Speaker 3>Nascar is dying. That race was no good. Well, not

209
00:09:21.879 --> 00:09:23.879
<v Speaker 3>every race is going to be a photo finish at

210
00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:24.480
<v Speaker 3>the end, and.

211
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:25.480
<v Speaker 1>That goes with any sport.

212
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:27.919
<v Speaker 3>Not everybody's gonna be up there with three and two

213
00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:30.440
<v Speaker 3>two outs, bottom of the ninth, and that's what happens.

214
00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:32.919
<v Speaker 3>So to your point, I feel the same way you do,

215
00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:34.360
<v Speaker 3>and I felt this way for a long time, and

216
00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:37.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm glad you've finally said something about it. So I

217
00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:39.919
<v Speaker 3>say to those people, why do we even have the

218
00:09:39.960 --> 00:09:42.519
<v Speaker 3>Pacers in the Thunder in the NBA? Yes, why don't

219
00:09:42.559 --> 00:09:44.519
<v Speaker 3>we just keep it like the Yankees and Dodgers in

220
00:09:45.159 --> 00:09:46.840
<v Speaker 3>Major League Baseball and let them play year round.

221
00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:49.080
<v Speaker 2>Look, both things can be true. Yeah, it's the best

222
00:09:49.080 --> 00:09:52.559
<v Speaker 2>case scenario for a pro league if the best two

223
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:54.919
<v Speaker 2>teams that play for it all are your bigger brands

224
00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:57.720
<v Speaker 2>with a humongous reach. But there's no fix to make

225
00:09:57.759 --> 00:09:59.960
<v Speaker 2>that happen all the time unless you want to rig

226
00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:01.399
<v Speaker 2>or get rid of the small teams.

227
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:02.559
<v Speaker 1>Again, both things can be true.

228
00:10:02.600 --> 00:10:05.200
<v Speaker 2>It could still be very entertaining and you can enjoy

229
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:07.720
<v Speaker 2>it and just know that the reach may not be

230
00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:10.440
<v Speaker 2>the The ceiling for the reach is just not quite there,

231
00:10:10.440 --> 00:10:12.000
<v Speaker 2>because again, you're not talking about La.

232
00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:12.320
<v Speaker 1>Or New York.

233
00:10:12.360 --> 00:10:15.000
<v Speaker 2>You're talking about smaller markets. So it just annoyed me

234
00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:16.799
<v Speaker 2>a little bit. But I'm gonna watch. I'm gonna hopefully

235
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:19.799
<v Speaker 2>enjoy it and hopefully not fall asleep. It's gonna be tough,

236
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:22.120
<v Speaker 2>all right. We have another update of sports coming your

<v Speaker 2>by Tony Venetti.

242
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Just I thought I thought of you earlier.

243
00:10:36.360 --> 00:10:39.399
<v Speaker 2>We were talking about this new Nintendo switch to game

244
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:40.480
<v Speaker 2>that people are.

245
00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:43.879
<v Speaker 4>Waiting, nerds waiting in line.

246
00:10:45.039 --> 00:10:48.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, you're a huge You.

247
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:51.879
<v Speaker 2>Are someone that of all of my friend's colleagues, people

248
00:10:51.879 --> 00:10:54.879
<v Speaker 2>that I know, I cannot see you ever being a

249
00:10:54.960 --> 00:10:56.799
<v Speaker 2>video game guy at any point in your life.

250
00:10:56.960 --> 00:10:58.480
<v Speaker 4>I gave it up when I became a dad. I

251
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:00.440
<v Speaker 4>was like, I'm not playing video games. I'm a dad.

252
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:03.720
<v Speaker 1>I just took the play What do you mean like

253
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:04.360
<v Speaker 1>growing up?

254
00:11:04.799 --> 00:11:09.279
<v Speaker 4>Oh like ATARII was when I was very young, Thank

255
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:12.679
<v Speaker 4>you for And then Nintendo was really when I stopped

256
00:11:13.480 --> 00:11:14.840
<v Speaker 4>well because I don't know.

257
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:16.720
<v Speaker 3>So he was never in it to begin with.

258
00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:21.639
<v Speaker 4>Here's here's my problem. I had friends and girlfriends, so

259
00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:25.639
<v Speaker 4>I was doing stuff, tough life, friends and girlfriends. All right,

260
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:28.120
<v Speaker 4>God be with you. You guys sit here all night

261
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:30.519
<v Speaker 4>playing the video games. I'm gonna go out.

262
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:32.559
<v Speaker 1>So I had a PlayStation.

263
00:11:32.679 --> 00:11:34.159
<v Speaker 2>I got it as a gift when I was when

264
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:36.639
<v Speaker 2>I was probably entering middle school. I ended up getting

265
00:11:36.679 --> 00:11:39.559
<v Speaker 2>a PlayStation two not long after that, and that was

266
00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:42.480
<v Speaker 2>really it. I never had another gaming system, and video

267
00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:44.759
<v Speaker 2>games were always popular when I was in high school,

268
00:11:44.919 --> 00:11:48.519
<v Speaker 2>but it just never really hooked me. And again, people

269
00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:51.159
<v Speaker 2>enjoy what they enjoy. But the conversation I went that

270
00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:53.879
<v Speaker 2>we had earlier is the waiting in line. Has there

271
00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:56.159
<v Speaker 2>ever been anything that you said, okay, if I got

272
00:11:56.159 --> 00:11:58.919
<v Speaker 2>to stand there for eight hours without moving, or I

273
00:11:58.919 --> 00:12:01.799
<v Speaker 2>got a camp out overnight to get something like take

274
00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:04.120
<v Speaker 2>video games out of the equation. There's really not anything

275
00:12:04.200 --> 00:12:06.159
<v Speaker 2>I would think that would be worthwhile to me where

276
00:12:06.159 --> 00:12:07.919
<v Speaker 2>I would just stand in line that long.

277
00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:10.799
<v Speaker 4>If they brought John Belushi back from life and said

278
00:12:10.799 --> 00:12:12.679
<v Speaker 4>you got to wait in line for tickets to see

279
00:12:12.679 --> 00:12:16.000
<v Speaker 4>one show of John Belushi. I wouldn't do it. I'm

280
00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:18.960
<v Speaker 4>also the guy. Everyone has a time period when they

281
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:22.360
<v Speaker 4>walk into a restaurant. Now if they're if they say

282
00:12:23.559 --> 00:12:27.240
<v Speaker 4>for me, it's twenty minutes. If it's fifteen minutes, I go,

283
00:12:27.279 --> 00:12:30.639
<v Speaker 4>all right, well wait, but if it's twenty I turn around.

284
00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:33.159
<v Speaker 4>How many time you sent your wife in before you

285
00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:35.240
<v Speaker 4>get out of the car, go see what the wait is?

286
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:38.559
<v Speaker 4>And they say it's twenty five minutes. She doesn't even ask.

287
00:12:38.600 --> 00:12:40.360
<v Speaker 4>She just gets back in the car and go what's next.

288
00:12:40.559 --> 00:12:43.919
<v Speaker 2>What I love doing is calling her out whenever she

289
00:12:44.039 --> 00:12:47.399
<v Speaker 2>tells me, yeah, they said about fifteen twenty minutes. That

290
00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:49.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, They did not say fifteen twenty minutes. You

291
00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:52.120
<v Speaker 2>just wanted to stay. You wanted to get me in

292
00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:54.360
<v Speaker 2>the door. You want to You wanted me to have

293
00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:56.639
<v Speaker 2>the kids out of the car seats, bring them in

294
00:12:56.679 --> 00:12:59.480
<v Speaker 2>to where we're already there. We've invested enough, so we're

295
00:12:59.480 --> 00:13:01.639
<v Speaker 2>just gonna stick around because you really want to eat here.

296
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:03.639
<v Speaker 2>Because you know that if you'd have told me it

297
00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:05.159
<v Speaker 2>was thirty five to forty minutes.

298
00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:07.519
<v Speaker 1>I always said, well we can go next door and

299
00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:08.360
<v Speaker 1>eat something.

300
00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:11.000
<v Speaker 4>Because now it depends on date night or just a

301
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:13.440
<v Speaker 4>Tuesday night. Like we used to go to Old Charlie's

302
00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:16.039
<v Speaker 4>on Wednesday night because it was free pie Wednesday. You

303
00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:18.480
<v Speaker 4>would get a slice of free pie and it was packed.

304
00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:20.600
<v Speaker 4>But they have a bar, so if it was if

305
00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:22.600
<v Speaker 4>it was if you were on a hey, we were

306
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:24.120
<v Speaker 4>not in a rush thing. You go to the bar

307
00:13:24.200 --> 00:13:26.600
<v Speaker 4>and have a beer. You'll wait the thirty minutes and

308
00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:28.639
<v Speaker 4>they'll call your name. But if you're in a rush,

309
00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:30.720
<v Speaker 4>you're hungry. You know, the family's hungry. I got to

310
00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:32.080
<v Speaker 4>eat now the kids are in the back. On what

311
00:13:32.159 --> 00:13:34.440
<v Speaker 4>are we gonna eat? You want to get in and out.

312
00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:39.159
<v Speaker 2>Killing time or trying to keep kids, you know, and

313
00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:41.879
<v Speaker 2>from losing their mind when you're in the when you're

314
00:13:41.879 --> 00:13:45.440
<v Speaker 2>in the waiting area at a restaurant is difficult, and

315
00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:47.240
<v Speaker 2>I try to avoid that at all costs.

316
00:13:47.279 --> 00:13:48.519
<v Speaker 1>You mentioned the bar.

317
00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:50.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why it's the case, but when my

318
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:52.000
<v Speaker 2>wife and I when we go to dinner on a

319
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:54.279
<v Speaker 2>date night, even if we're at a table or we're

320
00:13:54.320 --> 00:13:56.879
<v Speaker 2>gonna we're gonna have a couple of drinks, just like

321
00:13:56.919 --> 00:13:58.000
<v Speaker 2>we would if we were at the bar. So I

322
00:13:58.039 --> 00:14:00.519
<v Speaker 2>want to insinuate that the but when we said at

323
00:14:00.519 --> 00:14:02.960
<v Speaker 2>the bar together and have dinner, for some reason, it's

324
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:03.840
<v Speaker 2>a better experience.

325
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:05.720
<v Speaker 4>It's a ten times better experience, is that?

326
00:14:05.799 --> 00:14:07.480
<v Speaker 1>And I think we're doing the exact same thing.

327
00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:09.240
<v Speaker 4>And I don't know why people don't like it, because

328
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:11.240
<v Speaker 4>it's like they'll go, it's a thirty minute wait, and

329
00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:13.159
<v Speaker 4>then you look at the bar and there's four seats open,

330
00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:14.200
<v Speaker 4>and you go, can we sit at the bar, And

331
00:14:14.200 --> 00:14:16.559
<v Speaker 4>they're like, yeah, we know, faster service. You get your

332
00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:19.080
<v Speaker 4>food faster, you get your drinks faster, because remember the

333
00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:20.600
<v Speaker 4>bartender has to make the drink and then give it

334
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:22.200
<v Speaker 4>to the waitress and the waitress takes it to you.

335
00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:25.440
<v Speaker 4>But if you sit at the bar, fresh beer, food

336
00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:28.559
<v Speaker 4>comes faster. You know, what are we getting onto here?

337
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:31.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, i'd tell you what the Maybe it's because

338
00:14:32.120 --> 00:14:33.720
<v Speaker 2>it just seems like there's more like I don't want

339
00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:36.559
<v Speaker 2>to sound like a bad husband, but I'll probably be

340
00:14:36.639 --> 00:14:38.679
<v Speaker 2>more often more likely to be on my phone if

341
00:14:38.679 --> 00:14:39.679
<v Speaker 2>we're across from each other.

342
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:41.639
<v Speaker 1>That's true, We're just we just kind of know you're.

343
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:42.440
<v Speaker 4>More engaged at the bar.

344
00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:43.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but never, but.

345
00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:45.120
<v Speaker 2>We're next to each other, so we're not really looking

346
00:14:45.159 --> 00:14:46.720
<v Speaker 2>out of eye. But yeah, we went out on our

347
00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:51.039
<v Speaker 2>anniversary dinner a couple of weekends ago, and we had

348
00:14:51.039 --> 00:14:52.639
<v Speaker 2>a lot of options, there were open tables, but we

349
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:54.039
<v Speaker 2>decided to sit at the bar, and I'm like, we.

350
00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:55.399
<v Speaker 1>Should just do this more often.

351
00:14:55.559 --> 00:14:59.799
<v Speaker 4>It is absolutely correct, and I'm realizing that now you're

352
00:14:59.840 --> 00:15:00.799
<v Speaker 4>more or engaged, Jacky.

353
00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Your next days you're going to be at the bar.

354
00:15:02.399 --> 00:15:04.360
<v Speaker 4>That's right, you're more engaged with your wife if you

355
00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:06.240
<v Speaker 4>are sitting at the bar. And you're right. When we

356
00:15:06.279 --> 00:15:08.399
<v Speaker 4>sit in the booth, I don't know how many times

357
00:15:08.440 --> 00:15:10.759
<v Speaker 4>I've looked up and we're both on our phone exactly

358
00:15:10.919 --> 00:15:12.159
<v Speaker 4>and so stupid.

359
00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:15.320
<v Speaker 2>So look at us giving advice dating rights problem. You

360
00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:19.240
<v Speaker 2>mentioned the weight at restaurants. My favorite people when it

361
00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:21.720
<v Speaker 2>comes to the weight at the restaurants are those who

362
00:15:21.799 --> 00:15:26.519
<v Speaker 2>walk in just looking already inconvenienced, as if, yeah, the

363
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:28.840
<v Speaker 2>hell's going on? Did people not know I was coming here?

364
00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:32.200
<v Speaker 2>And then they'll tell the sixteen year old hostess a

365
00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:34.679
<v Speaker 2>party of four and they'll say it'll be a forty

366
00:15:34.679 --> 00:15:38.200
<v Speaker 2>five to fifty minutes, as as the room is crowded,

367
00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:39.960
<v Speaker 2>people are outside waiting and.

368
00:15:39.960 --> 00:15:45.120
<v Speaker 1>They're like, forty five to fifty minutes. No, nope, you

369
00:15:45.159 --> 00:15:48.120
<v Speaker 1>wait to put your name down, sirps, no thanks, excuse me,

370
00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:49.480
<v Speaker 1>the chicken parms.

371
00:15:49.960 --> 00:15:53.679
<v Speaker 2>That sixteen year old hostess is impacted by you going elsewhere.

372
00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:55.919
<v Speaker 1>Okay, they're already busy enough. That's why there's a weight.

373
00:15:56.039 --> 00:15:58.399
<v Speaker 4>And how many times is the sixteen year old host

374
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:00.200
<v Speaker 4>is going to lie to you to get rid of

375
00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:03.279
<v Speaker 4>you so they don't. She wants to clear this hallway,

376
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:06.080
<v Speaker 4>so when you ask, it's probably twenty minutes, but she's

377
00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:08.720
<v Speaker 4>saying fifty minutes because I want you to walk out.

378
00:16:08.759 --> 00:16:11.919
<v Speaker 2>I would love for somebody to be like overly sarcastic

379
00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:14.519
<v Speaker 2>but yet polite to where you just have to there's

380
00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:16.960
<v Speaker 2>no way you can like, oh, I'm really sorry to

381
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:21.519
<v Speaker 2>hear that you're gonna go elsewhere. Oh no, I hope

382
00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:25.600
<v Speaker 2>we recover as an industry because Bob and his two

383
00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:30.039
<v Speaker 2>kids are disgusted by so they're gonna go next door.

384
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:32.759
<v Speaker 4>But yeah, we eat out a lot, and everybody that's

385
00:16:32.759 --> 00:16:36.879
