your keyboard, I get.

14
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 4: A little I'm talking to the good folks in the

15
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,840
chat about this balley I have on a card.

16
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 3: Well what card is it? It's a do you mind sharing?

17
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,719
You know? It's almost like we're you know, played in

18
00:01:42,719 --> 00:01:45,359
a couple of different states, a couple different areas in Louisiana.

19
00:01:45,519 --> 00:01:45,920
That's true.

20
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:50,519
Speaker 4: I'm looking for a twenty twelve Panini prism, first year prism,

21
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,200
green prism parallel of myself?

22
00:01:55,439 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 3: Is it numbered? I just green acting? I don't think

23
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,400
it is. I think it was like, yeah, twelve first year.

24
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,239
I didn't have ed cards in eight, nine, ten, eleven,

25
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,920
and I didn't have them in twelve. Miss Prism.

26
00:02:05,959 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 4: I'm not like super like honed in and educated like

27
00:02:10,039 --> 00:02:13,159
on all like the different releases on the parallels. But

28
00:02:13,159 --> 00:02:16,039
there was the first year, so there's limited parallels. But

29
00:02:16,479 --> 00:02:21,000
you boy, there's rainbow hunting right now. I need the Green.

30
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:26,000
It's the only one you need, right Yep? I got

31
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:27,599
some how many of that? I got the ones that

32
00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:30,840
are harder to find? How many of those are out there?

33
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:35,639
I mean it's not like super Short, I don't think,

34
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,159
because there's a green of other players like out there

35
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,439
for sale and they're not that pricey.

36
00:02:41,479 --> 00:02:47,439
Speaker 3: So that's what I need. Green Parallel Matt Flyman, twenty twelve. Green, Nope,

37
00:02:48,319 --> 00:02:51,400
what's your prism? Prism?

38
00:02:51,439 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 4: So Panini losing the license after this year, so the

39
00:02:54,719 --> 00:02:57,159
original year Prism is going very sought after.

40
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, because that's all going to Tops, right everything, Yeah,

41
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,599
the license Tops is Panina gonna have anything? I mean

42
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,000
other sports, That's what I'm saying, Like what a sports football?

43
00:03:10,759 --> 00:03:15,039
Speaker 4: Like everybody is pretty much declaring the football part put

44
00:03:15,039 --> 00:03:15,919
a tombstone on it.

45
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:17,599
Speaker 3: They're like, oh, this is the last year of.

46
00:03:18,439 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 4: Prison, this is the last year of National Treasures, this

47
00:03:20,759 --> 00:03:23,159
is last year of blah blah blah. That will still

48
00:03:23,159 --> 00:03:25,520
probably have them, just not with a license, so they're

49
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:26,080
not going to be.

50
00:03:28,319 --> 00:03:31,159
Speaker 3: So they'll just have like a red helmet on instead

51
00:03:31,159 --> 00:03:36,479
of a red helmet with a logo. Yeah, which is

52
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,000
just not good. Only just give both companies the license.

53
00:03:43,319 --> 00:03:46,599
That's how licensing works. Well, I could your point. I mean,

54
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,439
you know you're you're right not seeing it, bud.

55
00:03:50,199 --> 00:03:52,759
Speaker 4: No, it's not there. You can find it on a

56
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,039
card ladder, like a sold one. I've reached out to

57
00:03:55,039 --> 00:03:57,159
the people that sold it, got crickets.

58
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,919
Speaker 3: There is like one like a singular, and I like,

59
00:04:03,159 --> 00:04:05,199
duh because it's one of one. But like you know,

60
00:04:05,599 --> 00:04:09,000
like Cooper Flag's got thirty one of one's just different cards.

61
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:14,159
There's one one of one of me on eBay and

62
00:04:14,199 --> 00:04:17,199
I just continue to message the guy like hey, Like

63
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,000
at first I started like I didn't really like this card.

64
00:04:20,199 --> 00:04:22,000
What would you be willing to do on it? Because

65
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,319
he's got a way over price for who it is. Yeah,

66
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,319
Like what do you know? There is nobody in the world, literally,

67
00:04:27,879 --> 00:04:31,800
not one person in the world, not one, not even

68
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,319
my mother. What's been that amount of money on this card?

69
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,160
So I'm like, hey, like, realistically, what can like, what

70
00:04:38,199 --> 00:04:39,800
do you want to do here? I was like, what's

71
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,720
your PC. I'll trade you some cards and give you

72
00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:45,839
some money. Nothing. Check your messages, Bud, it's been six

73
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,680
months since you five messages. Nobody the cards still there.

74
00:04:50,879 --> 00:04:52,680
He's a big fan. He doesn't want to sell. No,

75
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,360
he's not like in Wisconsin or something. Yeah, he doesn't care.

76
00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,319
Check your messages, Bud. Yeah, just say hey, no thanks, Yeah,

77
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:00,759
I'm good.

78
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:03,879
Speaker 4: Problem is, it's like they've probably been sitting on these

79
00:05:03,879 --> 00:05:05,800
for a long time. They probably paid like three bucks

80
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,160
for them ten years ago. So they're like they don't

81
00:05:08,199 --> 00:05:10,199
have anything invested in it. So it's not like they're

82
00:05:10,199 --> 00:05:13,399
trying to get it flipped. They're just waiting on, actually

83
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,800
you to come to your senses. Maybe have to make

84
00:05:16,079 --> 00:05:18,319
cole pops. One night, I'm pull the trigger.

85
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 3: It's it's a principal deal at this point, not doing it.

86
00:05:24,879 --> 00:05:27,399
I got a lot of numbered and I've saved them

87
00:05:27,439 --> 00:05:29,920
for our you know, for the boys and for Harlof

88
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,879
they ever want them, probably probably not. I got them,

89
00:05:34,319 --> 00:05:36,319
got a lot of the fifties a lot of the fives,

90
00:05:36,319 --> 00:05:39,240
a lot of the tens. Yep, there's one one of

91
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,720
one out there. This guy will not message me back. Yep.

92
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 4: When I first got into it, I was like, oh, yeah,

93
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,240
I'm buying like everything and numbered I can find.

94
00:05:48,639 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, buy it. You told me that, and I did

95
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:50,879
it too.

96
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 2: Ye.

97
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 4: At the point, at some point I was like, all right,

98
00:05:53,879 --> 00:05:55,879
I got a lot now I just want I'm gonna

99
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,800
hone in on two sets. It tried to complete the rainbow,

100
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,839
which is getting every parallel of that one set. One

101
00:06:03,879 --> 00:06:06,319
of them is twenty twelve prison yep, because this original year.

102
00:06:06,319 --> 00:06:08,600
And one of them's two thousand and eight tops chrome.

103
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, rookie, that's that's one of the sweetest cards. They're great,

104
00:06:15,439 --> 00:06:20,600
eight tops chrome, impeccable. Yeah, they're fantastic. I've got a

105
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,759
bunch of the black ones of that. Yeah. Yeah. They're

106
00:06:23,759 --> 00:06:24,279
a lot of fun.

107
00:06:24,319 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 4: And you gave me a greater one. I gave you

108
00:06:26,519 --> 00:06:29,360

109
00:06:30,399 --> 00:06:32,120
it was a little gift for you. It's your birthday

because nine though, jump. So let us know if you're

111
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:41,920
going out to the card show this.

112
00:06:41,879 --> 00:06:44,319
Speaker 3: Week, if you find those any one of those parallels

113
00:06:45,439 --> 00:06:47,879
if you see another one of one, or if you

114
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,519
see the green parallel there. I've reached out to.

115
00:06:50,519 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 4: Card shops, like in California on the East coast, say hey,

116
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,439
like people that have sold these cards in the past,

117
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,360
I hate like, can you get that information if you

118
00:06:58,439 --> 00:07:00,000
bought it I those six years ago.

119
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, we need to find out how many are actually

120
00:07:02,079 --> 00:07:02,439
out there.

121
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 4: Though it's not like I know you can look up

122
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,839
green Parallel from twenty twelve and like that tons of

123
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,560
them pop ulpar like from other players, just not to me.

124
00:07:11,839 --> 00:07:14,399
Speaker 3: Have you put it out there on the socials? No,

125
00:07:14,519 --> 00:07:15,920
I don't know. If I got a lot of card

126
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,759
folks that follow me, you don't know.

127
00:07:18,879 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 5: I guess I've been assuming you'd be Packers twenty twelve.

128
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,399
Actually that's a I couldn't remember what year was that?

129
00:07:25,399 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 3: Your first year in Seattle? Yeah? Only year?

130
00:07:27,879 --> 00:07:30,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, and like that part is not valuable to me.

131
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,079
It's just the fact that the the brand it was

132
00:07:35,079 --> 00:07:37,240
the first year of like this like one of the

133
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,120
top brands in sports card collecting a football at least

134
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,839
since what people say kind of changed the game a

135
00:07:42,839 --> 00:07:48,959
little bit. In any prison, anyway, I'm sure people are

136
00:07:48,959 --> 00:07:50,360
really tired of hearing it's talk about sports.

137
00:07:50,399 --> 00:07:52,399
Speaker 3: I don't know, I think, I mean, you're not the

138
00:07:52,399 --> 00:07:54,800
only people to do it. I mean we're not the

139
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,720

153
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,440
in the card game, you're the weirdo, not us. Yeah,

154
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:50,120
you know what I'm saying. Herds not in cards doork's.

155
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 6: But seriously, if you could have a a one of

156
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:03,039
one of a current player the National Football League current player.

157
00:09:04,279 --> 00:09:07,639
Speaker 3: Well, you're a rookie one one. Uh no, let's go

158
00:09:07,799 --> 00:09:12,320
veteran one of one for sentimental value. Sentimental value, you

159
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,480
know what I'm saying, Like you're like, this isn't worth

160
00:09:15,759 --> 00:09:20,159
as much as some others. I'm going Kyle used check

161
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:28,840
no doubt. Guy literally by himself kept fullbacks alive long

162
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,519
enough for it to become a deal again. And now

163
00:09:31,519 --> 00:09:34,240
it's a deal again. Okay.

164
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 4: Sentimental I don't know y'all have I don't know if

165
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,159
I have. I think the current sentimental one. I don't

166
00:09:45,159 --> 00:09:45,879
think I have one.

167
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,799
Speaker 7: No, I don't know about sentimental. But like I'm thinking,

168
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,679
but if I'm thinking of like what's going to have

169
00:09:51,039 --> 00:09:56,240
like a high value later, maybe this is dumb, But

170
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,799
like Miles Garrett, it's not dumb.

171
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 3: Now, say, in the card game, quarterbacks are king. Offensive

172
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,240
players are king the most part. So it's like quarterbacks.

173
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,039
Speaker 7: And then I'm thinking the sack record thing.

174
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 3: Yeah he's bad, I guess good rookie rookie rookie card

175
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,919
for current. Oh current, I know it seems like he's

176
00:10:17,919 --> 00:10:21,399
always current. That's why I said current, because like you

177
00:10:21,399 --> 00:10:23,480
could give like, oh, give me a Mickey Mantle that'd

178
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,000
be cool, be fun.

179
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,759
Speaker 5: It's got to be worth something, right, Hunter Renfro, Renfro,

180
00:10:29,879 --> 00:10:33,240
you think so Tyler shuck Renfro will be current when.

181
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:34,039
Speaker 3: The same is big.

182
00:10:34,639 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 4: I am a proud owner of a lot of Rattler

183
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,799
cards and now shut cards as well. Got on the

184
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,399
Rattler game when demoted. Yeah, oh yeah, you jumped on

185
00:10:45,519 --> 00:10:46,480
like you you bought low.

186
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:47,159
Speaker 3: I bought low.

187
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, okay, it makes sense if I had to pick

188
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,919
like one card, like I have one, but I'm not

189
00:10:53,039 --> 00:10:55,440
into the card thing. But if I had to pick

190
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,559
one that I would value and probably never sell for

191
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,799
my entire life, is like a Nolan Ryan Carr, Yeah

192
00:11:02,879 --> 00:11:03,159
I would.

193
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 4: I don't think I'd ever get rid of any of

194
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:08,000
any of the nineties like Dallas teams, I really like.

195
00:11:09,759 --> 00:11:13,039
I am looking. I can't decide. I'm trying to get

196
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:17,320
a again, were cards of the three so in my

197
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,720
career as a starter in the NFL, I think I

198
00:11:19,759 --> 00:11:23,679
was three and three or something like that. I'm trying

199
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,679
to decide. I want to get good cards of the

200
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,480
three quarterbacks I beat and.

201
00:11:32,279 --> 00:11:34,399
Speaker 3: Because I got ultimate respect for all of them. Yeah,

202
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,279
but like you got three.

203
00:11:35,519 --> 00:11:37,399
Speaker 4: I'm trying to decide if I'm going to get a

204
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,120
card from the year that we beat them, or like try.

205
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 3: To find like a rookie card of theirs or something.

206
00:11:44,519 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 7: The year would be cool.

207
00:11:45,799 --> 00:11:50,159
Speaker 4: So that'd be let's say Stafford, Matt Ryan, Tony Romo.

208
00:11:52,639 --> 00:11:56,840
That'd be a fun, fun one to have. Do you

209
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,720
have any three? You have a Stafford? I got a Stafford,

210
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,600
but not I. I got a Stafford from the Rams.

211
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,039
Oh not the Lions.

212
00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

213
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,399
Speaker 4: I was looking for Stafford rookie stuff about like in November,

214
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,919
because I knew he was gonna win the MVP. But

215
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,759
I just didn't pull a trigger. I was like, Oh,

216
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,440
people selling they're kind of on the same page as me,

217
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:15,919
so I don't know if I'm actually getting a good deal.

218
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 3: All right, Yeah, it's us nerding out about cars, but

219
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,600
a lot of people do. Now it's in vogue. No

220
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,399
big deal. And there is a card show in Gonzalez

221
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,639

00:12:33,919 --> 00:12:37,039

265
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,759
Thursday morning. Let's go ahead and get to some monkey questions.

266
00:15:11,759 --> 00:15:12,480
A chef might go.

267
00:15:12,799 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 1: Get ready to tantalize your taste buds and leave this

268
00:15:15,399 --> 00:15:22,039
segment hungry. This is Monkey's with executive chef Michael Johnson, Jeff?

269
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:23,879
Speaker 3: What's going on? Brother? How we doing? How we living?

270
00:15:24,559 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 9: Madam? Great? How are you all?

271
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 3: Blessing Holly's favored? Appreciate you asking? All right? Got a

272
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,440
little mounchy question coming in. I have some leftover rotisserie chicken.

273
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,720
Should I use it to make chicken salad? Or you

274
00:15:40,759 --> 00:15:41,759
got something else for me?

275
00:15:42,879 --> 00:15:45,919
Speaker 9: I don't know, you know, like leftover leftover rotistrie chicken.

276
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,000
I like to flother a lot of mayonnaise and on

277
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,799
some bread and then eat it, make a sandwich out

278
00:15:51,799 --> 00:15:52,240
of it.

279
00:15:52,639 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 3: You know, isn't it Chef? It's you that likes cold

280
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:56,120
chicken too, right?

281
00:15:56,559 --> 00:16:00,799
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, okay, yeah, and you know, like a piece

282
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,960
of French you know, like a French loaf or a

283
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,320
back end or something. Look, oh man, probably we'll put

284
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,600
some sauteed mushrooms on there or something that, you know,

285
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,080
like to give a little bit of character. But yeah,

286
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,399
I like rotistri And honestly, you know, like you can

287
00:16:14,399 --> 00:16:17,159
pull rotistrie chicken and make pull chicken out of it.

288
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,039
You can chop it up and put it into a

289
00:16:19,879 --> 00:16:22,279
lazy man's gumboo if you want to instead of you know,

290
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,080
cooking it from scratch, and there's lots of stuff you

291
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,480
can do with rotissrie chicken. You just don't want to

292
00:16:27,519 --> 00:16:30,320
do it, you know, like if you picked it up

293
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,360
on Monday, you know, today's the last day you want

294
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:34,960
to use it. You don't want to put fourt a

295
00:16:35,039 --> 00:16:36,960
old chicken into a gumbo that you're going to store

296
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:38,399
for another four days, you know what I mean. You

297
00:16:38,399 --> 00:16:39,600
want to consume it immediately.

298
00:16:40,679 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 3: We're in the.

299
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,799
Speaker 4: Flynt family, we are taking our rotisserie left or too.

300
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,960
So you're making chicken case of dias for the kids.

301
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,600
Oh yeah, so that's highly recommended right there. But yeah,

302
00:16:49,759 --> 00:16:51,519
just cheese chicken. Don't church it up too much.

303
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:52,159
Speaker 3: Cheese and chicken.

304
00:16:52,279 --> 00:16:57,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, hashtag munchies. We talked about this yesterday. I believe Jeff,

305
00:16:57,559 --> 00:17:00,120
what's the most overrated cut of steak?

306
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 9: Oh man?

307
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:02,159
Speaker 7: You know?

308
00:17:02,279 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 9: For me, I think it's the fil a, you know,

309
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,160
like it's nice and tender and everything. But I don't

310
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,319
necessarily like that. I I like kind of a firmer

311
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,680
texture of meat, and I like some marbling in there too.

312
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 7: You know.

313
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:16,759
Speaker 9: The tender loin is I think expensive because there's not

314
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,799
much of it, right it's it's the flying demand and

315
00:17:20,319 --> 00:17:22,799
while it's hasty and tender, you know it doesn't have

316
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,279
the marbling that if you look for flavor that I,

317
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,759
you know, look for and say a strip loine and

318
00:17:27,759 --> 00:17:30,799
and I actually prefer a little bit of fat on mistakes.

319
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:35,000
So you know, it's it's just an opinion. There's gonna

320
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,559
be people that don't agree with me. But you know,

321
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,599
I like I like the marbling of a stripline. I

322
00:17:40,599 --> 00:17:43,759
think if you know you there's a there's an argument

323
00:17:43,799 --> 00:17:48,119
to be made. It's the ribbi. I think it almost

324
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,200
goes a little too far sometimes with the starfat. It's

325
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,960
in the center of the of the eye. So I

326
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,119
don't know, you pay a premium price for both of

327
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:58,759
those cuts, where I think a strip woint is more

328
00:17:58,799 --> 00:18:02,000
affordable and it has as kind of the the best

329
00:18:02,039 --> 00:18:03,519
of both worlds of the two.

330
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 3: Hashtag MUNCHIESE trying to work out and get in shape.

331
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,720
What's a solid meal planned dish I can make on

332
00:18:11,799 --> 00:18:15,039
a Sunday and eat on for a few days. Also,

333
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:19,279
boiled crawfished potato salad was incredible. Thank you now, chef.

334
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,000
I do know that, like for you, meal prep is

335
00:18:22,039 --> 00:18:25,599
something that you you worry about a little bit because

336
00:18:25,599 --> 00:18:27,920
you do lose some of those nutrients if you make

337
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,440
it and you wait too long to eat it.

338
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,079
Speaker 9: That's right, but you know, if you're cooking during the

339
00:18:33,079 --> 00:18:36,319
week specifically, so if you're trying to have it, if

340
00:18:36,319 --> 00:18:38,279
you're cooking it on Sunday, then you want it for

341
00:18:38,319 --> 00:18:40,759
the week. You know, like whatever you're making on Sunday,

342
00:18:40,839 --> 00:18:42,279
just make a little bit more of it, you know.

343
00:18:43,079 --> 00:18:45,359
The thing about it is is that if you're looking

344
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,200
to cut lights, it's calorie and calorie out, and there's

345
00:18:48,319 --> 00:18:50,440
other dynamics there, you know, like honestly, you got to

346
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,640
talk to your doctor about it, make sure that you're

347
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,079
doing it healthily healthy, but as a general rule of thumb,

348
00:18:57,079 --> 00:18:59,599
you need to be tracking your calories right. And it's

349
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,960
it really is, you know, like I'm cutting my carbs first,

350
00:19:03,279 --> 00:19:06,279
I'm keeping enough carbs in my diet to give me

351
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,519
energy so that I can exercise. Exercise is super important

352
00:19:09,559 --> 00:19:12,720
when you're trying to lose weight, because you're increasing your

353
00:19:12,759 --> 00:19:16,720
calorie burn, not just reducing to your calorie intake. Both

354
00:19:16,799 --> 00:19:21,839
those things have necessity, and so I'm really careful about

355
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,279
not having any carbs in my diet because you know,

356
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,160
like it's it's to me a necessary thing. But I

357
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,559
do think that you know, measuring, you know that you

358
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,519
have four ounces of carbs, depending on what the carb

359
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:36,079
is obviously, but you know four ounces of carbs, you know,

360
00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,319
six to eight ounces of protein, and then lots of

361
00:19:38,319 --> 00:19:41,920
fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables fill you up faster

362
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,200
so you feel full, but you're actually in taking less

363
00:19:46,279 --> 00:19:50,200
less caloric intake. And so a lot of people don't

364
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,039
like to hear that, you know, like I want the

365
00:19:52,039 --> 00:19:53,559
meat and potatoes that I don't want. I don't want

366
00:19:53,599 --> 00:19:55,920
the fruits and vegetables and fruit and vegetables or how

367
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,920
we get full and add fiber to our diet that

368
00:19:59,079 --> 00:20:02,200
helps balance blood sugar and stuff like that. And also,

369
00:20:02,559 --> 00:20:05,880
you know, you got to watch the fats. The that's

370
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,279
the you know, the cooking techniques that you're using. When

371
00:20:09,279 --> 00:20:12,319
you submerge something in oil and deep fat fry it,

372
00:20:12,319 --> 00:20:16,000
it's going to exchange moisture for oil. And so what

373
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,039
tastes good about about deep fried foods is that it

374
00:20:19,079 --> 00:20:21,400
has fat and the tissues in it. You know, you're

375
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,480
submerging it in oil and exchanging you know, there's a

376
00:20:24,559 --> 00:20:27,200
there's a liquid exchange there. So you know, deep fat

377
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,599
frying is not super healthy. You can you can oven

378
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,559
fry and uh, if you have an air fryer, you

379
00:20:32,559 --> 00:20:35,000
can code with oil and air fry get the same texture.

380
00:20:35,039 --> 00:20:38,039
But you really have to watch your fat anything because

381
00:20:38,079 --> 00:20:42,519
if you're not burning the fat through through caloric burn, uh,

382
00:20:42,799 --> 00:20:45,079
you're going to store the fat, you know, And so

383
00:20:46,279 --> 00:20:48,519
that's that's an important piece of it. And and what

384
00:20:48,599 --> 00:20:51,240
fats as well. You know, olive oils are good. There's

385
00:20:51,279 --> 00:20:54,920
lots of different conversations about steed oils and you know,

386
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,279
all kinds of all kinds of different oils, but my

387
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,319
go to is olive oil. It's proven and we know

388
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,519
what it is. Version good for you. Then it helps

389
00:21:02,559 --> 00:21:08,920
manage your LDLs, which is your low density lipoproteins obviously.

390
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, chef, I mean you bring up a lot of

391
00:21:11,799 --> 00:21:13,960
good points there, but like weight loss and trying to

392
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,440
get in shape, like it's different for you know, certainly

393
00:21:17,079 --> 00:21:19,079
things work for one person that might not work for other.

394
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,480
You just got to kind of find what works for you.

395
00:21:21,759 --> 00:21:23,880
And a good rule of thumb is just kind of

396
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,960
like you said, if you look through the day and

397
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,960
you didn't burn more calories than you took in, then

398
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:30,119
you're probably not going to lose weight.

399
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 9: I think you have to be smart about it too,

400
00:21:32,559 --> 00:21:35,599
right brother, Like you know, having a two hundred calorie

401
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,559
deficit by day means that you could probably lose one

402
00:21:39,559 --> 00:21:41,759
to two pounds per week. And you know, like trying

403
00:21:41,799 --> 00:21:44,240
to drop ten pounds in a week is really harsh

404
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,480
on the human body. You have to be realistic about

405
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:51,039
the burn, you know, and set a realistic goal versus

406
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,720
an over aggressive goal that your body is going to

407
00:21:53,759 --> 00:21:54,759
respond negatively too.

408
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 4: Yep, okay, chef ashtag munchies here, we're getting close to

409
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,759
I think wild turkey season. What's your best advice for

410
00:22:02,799 --> 00:22:04,680
a good wild turkey breast?

411
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,039
Speaker 9: You know, Brian, it's wild turkeys are they They move

412
00:22:09,079 --> 00:22:12,119
around even more than you know farm turkeys do, and

413
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,480
so that they're they're leaner. And while I enjoy this,

414
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:20,319
I absolutely love wild turkey. You know, my my always

415
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,160
go to is you know, and whether truth be known,

416
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,000
if it's wild or not, I'm gonna brine it just

417
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,799
because it helps. It helps pull the salt into the meat,

418
00:22:27,799 --> 00:22:30,079
It helps retain moisture during the cook and it helps

419
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,759
prevent drying out while you're cooking, and so why not, right, Like,

420
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:37,960
it's just a it's just a preparation that's gonna ensure

421
00:22:38,039 --> 00:22:40,519
that you have a better product and the end result. So,

422
00:22:40,839 --> 00:22:43,359
however you cook your turkey, make sure you brian it

423
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:44,039
ahead of time.

424
00:22:45,799 --> 00:22:50,799
Speaker 3: Hashtag munchies attempting to make authentic auropas. Hope I got

425
00:22:50,799 --> 00:22:53,279
that right. For a Columbian friend of mine tomorrow night,

426
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,200
what do you suggest and what would you suggest putting

427
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:57,160
on the inside?

428
00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,519
Speaker 9: Yeah, rapists. I've never actually made a rapist from from

429
00:23:00,519 --> 00:23:04,160
scratching myself. I work with a lady that that does.

430
00:23:04,319 --> 00:23:08,000
But I'm afraid I don't have too much insight there.

431
00:23:08,319 --> 00:23:14,400
It's great. It's a it's a traditional dish. It's like

432
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,759
a somewhere in between a tortilla and a and a

433
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,240
oh geez, like a it's a lot or something like that.

434
00:23:23,279 --> 00:23:28,640
You know, it's it's a dish. It's a traditional, just dish.

435
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,839
Speaker 3: I always get hungry right about this time. That's why

436
00:23:31,839 --> 00:23:33,720
we moved it back. We do. We used to do this,

437
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:35,240
yeah seven thirty.

438
00:23:35,319 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 4: Right, and it was it was too much because chef

439
00:23:37,799 --> 00:23:39,319
we don't like there's not a lot of time in

440
00:23:39,319 --> 00:23:41,240
the morning to get a breakfast before this. I'm always

441
00:23:41,279 --> 00:23:44,160
got like pretty hungry in general, but like right now

442
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:48,160
it's like even more so. So so okay, so I

443
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,559
got a question. So we were talking, so I was

444
00:23:51,319 --> 00:23:53,079
the kids were kind of in the grilled cheese world

445
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,160
right now, and I want to, like, what's your best

446
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,960
advice on a maybe not like a kid doesn't have

447
00:23:57,960 --> 00:23:59,839
to be a kid friendly grilled cheese, but like, if

448
00:23:59,839 --> 00:24:03,359
you're making the perfect grilled cheese sandwich, how you doing it?

449
00:24:04,559 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 9: Starting off with brioche, like a thick cut Texas toast

450
00:24:08,279 --> 00:24:11,319
brioche because it tolerates a lot of heat. And I'm

451
00:24:11,759 --> 00:24:14,160
going to butter both sides of the bread, Like if

452
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:17,000
we're going to do a grilled cheese up, you know,

453
00:24:17,079 --> 00:24:20,720
like a grown making grilled cheese, it's gonna have a

454
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,440
thick piece of bread. And I like to take and

455
00:24:23,519 --> 00:24:26,079
make not just butter, but take and make like a

456
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:29,519
mad or d butter where you put chopped parsley and

457
00:24:29,559 --> 00:24:32,039
garlic in it and whip it up so that it's

458
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,079
nice and lightened, spread easy. So you know you're gonna

459
00:24:35,079 --> 00:24:37,359
have these chunks of parsley and stuff on the bread

460
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,039
as you toast as well, and you got to toast,

461
00:24:40,279 --> 00:24:42,880
you know, the first side goes down. You don't put

462
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,200
the cheese on the bread yet, you know, you heat

463
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,480
that bottom side up and then flip it and immediately

464
00:24:47,519 --> 00:24:49,960
put your cheese on the bread. And it's gotta be

465
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:54,839
you know, like greasy cheddar cheese is not going on

466
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,839
my you know, like it's gonna be grew yere or

467
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,880
something nice and soft. And they actually have this cheese

468
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:05,160
called raclet that you eat over fire and you scrape

469
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,240
it onto your grilled cheese. And if you've never had

470
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,519
a grilled cheese made that way, your life is missing something.

471
00:25:12,559 --> 00:25:15,119
And reclet is it's got a little bit of bite

472
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:19,160
to it's a little funky. But if if not, you know,

473
00:25:19,279 --> 00:25:21,039
like smoked dudahs.

474
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 3: Great, I just how do you spell reclet?

475
00:25:24,039 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 9: Are a c l e pte Reclet? I think it's

476
00:25:28,039 --> 00:25:30,880
actually a Swiss type of cheese, but it's it's not

477
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:35,000
it's not like your typical Swiss, but it's a European

478
00:25:35,079 --> 00:25:36,880
for sure, but it's it's.

479
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 3: Wonderful, so it has opinions unlike the other Swiss. Most definitely, okay, Jesus,

480
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,640

Speaker 1: Off the bench.

490
00:26:04,319 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 3: All right. If your business relies on technology to run smoothly,

the Raising Kine studio. Every single Thursday, we have the

516
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,440
great opportunity to catch up with the head baseball coach

517
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,160
for the LSU Tigers, Jay Johnson, who joins us now. Coach.

518
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:50,119
We always appreciate it. I hope you're doing well, doing great,

519
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:53,920
how doing fantastic? Always excited for the conversation. Just like

520
00:27:54,319 --> 00:27:56,200
something we talked about last week. Then I'm sure you're

521
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,839
excited about We're excited about that you can look up

522
00:27:58,839 --> 00:28:01,759
and see number one back in the lineup and see

523
00:28:01,799 --> 00:28:04,759
him out there in the field as well. And coach

524
00:28:04,759 --> 00:28:06,799
we were talking about Chris Stanfield of course number one

525
00:28:06,839 --> 00:28:10,000
on your team. Uh, just what he gives you in

526
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,119
so many different phases of the game and in the box,

527
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,480
on the base, pass, in the field, and somebody has

528
00:28:16,519 --> 00:28:18,359
been through the fire before, right, I mean he's a

529
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,680
senior player. He has been in a lot of different situations.

530
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,960
Now that he is like fully back in the lineup, Like,

531
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,960
what does that guy mean to the success moving forward?

532
00:28:29,759 --> 00:28:31,880
Speaker 2: Well, it means a lot. If you look at this

533
00:28:32,039 --> 00:28:34,519
the contribution of last year, I feel like it really

534
00:28:34,559 --> 00:28:37,680
flew under the radar. You know, maybe for you know,

535
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,599
a couple of reasons. Is on the best team in

536
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,799
the country. But he was our leading hitter, you know

537
00:28:42,839 --> 00:28:46,279
in SEC play, which is the best pitching that you see.

538
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,079
He led the SEC all sixteen teams in doubles. So

539
00:28:50,119 --> 00:28:54,480
I think this is pure hitting. Offensive contribution is undervalued.

540
00:28:54,559 --> 00:28:57,880
And you just said it like, you know, the threat

541
00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,680
on the basis and it's not even just like a

542
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,960
stole base thing, but you know, ball in the gap,

543
00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:05,400
he's on first to run. You know, a ball goes

544
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,720
in the dirt, he's advancing to second base or a

545
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,160
third base. Then the ball goes up in the outfield,

546
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,079
it's it's an out and so that's a lot of

547
00:29:12,079 --> 00:29:15,920
ways to impact the game. Maybe from a football standpoint,

548
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,440
it's it's kind of like that, you know, guy can

549
00:29:18,519 --> 00:29:22,119
catch the ball out of the backfield, return punts and kickoffs,

550
00:29:22,559 --> 00:29:26,960
you know, and can you know run protect the quarterback? Yes,

551
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,759
exactly the probably most important thing right there.

552
00:29:31,279 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 3: Overt Matt Alway. Coach Matt always hating on the running back.

553
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,279
The quarterbacks, always just wonder how they stay clean back there.

554
00:29:41,119 --> 00:29:43,519
Speaker 2: That's right. You know, It's like I was watching this

555
00:29:44,039 --> 00:29:46,480
clip of the movie The Draft Day the other day

556
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,319
when the coach is like once a runner and the

557
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,119
GM wants a blocker. So I guess you know you

558
00:29:52,119 --> 00:29:54,720
can do it all like you could. You're probably in

559
00:29:54,759 --> 00:29:55,920
a good spot, that's sure.

560
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 3: That's right.

561
00:29:57,119 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 4: I love it, coach. Uh, just looking back a little bit.

562
00:30:01,079 --> 00:30:03,759
Drop two this the past weekend versus Vanderbilt. But you

563
00:30:03,759 --> 00:30:07,000
come out Tuesday and I had a really good pitchers

564
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,640
thrown well win the game be graand with seven to one.

565
00:30:09,839 --> 00:30:13,119
But I found a fascinating kind of the the remarks

566
00:30:13,119 --> 00:30:15,680
you made about about this as being a must win

567
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:17,200
game on a Tuesday. I just kind of wanted to

568
00:30:17,359 --> 00:30:19,359
follow up on that and what kind of you meant

569
00:30:19,599 --> 00:30:21,240
about and what I know, we want to win every

570
00:30:21,279 --> 00:30:24,000
single game obviously, but for a Tuesday game.

571
00:30:25,359 --> 00:30:28,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I live in a different world than everybody else

572
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,880
with college baseball, and you know, the RPI is a

573
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:36,400
real thing, and you know, like you usually get protected

574
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,839
and we have a ton of protection coming up because

575
00:30:39,519 --> 00:30:41,839
everybody we play for like the next six weeks is

576
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:45,799
like eighteen and three or better, and so you're your

577
00:30:45,799 --> 00:30:49,720
opponent's winning percentage is the most important calculation in the RPI,

578
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:54,400
and ours will probably get taken care of. But you know,

579
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,079
we got some ground to make up as it is

580
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,839
right now. And if you lose to another team this

581
00:31:00,079 --> 00:31:04,480
five and twelve home losses hurt you worse. Like we're

582
00:31:04,599 --> 00:31:07,079
just you know, I don't want to dig a hole

583
00:31:07,119 --> 00:31:08,880
then if we can't get out of no matter how

584
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,799
well we play, an SEC play and it's one of

585
00:31:11,799 --> 00:31:15,559
those games that if you lose, you're going to drop

586
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:19,519
like another thirty or thirty five spots. And I mean,

587
00:31:19,559 --> 00:31:21,960
it's it's difficult because you don't you can't tell the

588
00:31:22,039 --> 00:31:24,319
players that really, And finally, in the middle of the game,

589
00:31:24,359 --> 00:31:26,720
I was like, guys, can't can't lose this game, Like

590
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,359
we've got to offense, got to kick it in the gear.

591
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,880
And that's the opposite of way I think and the

592
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,640
way I coach. But it's like there's a reality component

593
00:31:34,839 --> 00:31:38,839
to that, and not on anybody else's radar, you know,

594
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,799
maybe even my assistant coaches, players, fans, but definitely online.

595
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,359
And the other part of this is like, you know,

596
00:31:46,839 --> 00:31:48,920
we want to play well in the game, and I

597
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,559
thought we certainly pitched well, which was great to see,

598
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,720
you know, like getting some of our supposedly better guys

599
00:31:56,759 --> 00:31:58,759
back out there, because I feel like one way to

600
00:31:58,759 --> 00:32:01,079
get him throwing the ball zone is to get them

601
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,480
to pitch more. And so I think there was a

602
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,000
lot of positives in that game. I mean, they didn't

603
00:32:06,039 --> 00:32:07,880
make it easy. They decided a roll three o their

604
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:11,079
weekend starters out during the game, which was you know,

605
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,799
kept it a little closer maybe than I guess it

606
00:32:13,839 --> 00:32:17,400
should have been. But happy we won and that taken

607
00:32:17,559 --> 00:32:20,039
that loss doesn't mean every Tuesday is like that, but

608
00:32:20,119 --> 00:32:24,680
that Tuesday would have caused another big hole that, regardless

609
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,079
of sec play, might have been harder to dig out of.

610
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 3: Coach, if we do go back to the weekend, we

611
00:32:30,559 --> 00:32:33,519
go to Sunday's game, Like that's one of those games

612
00:32:33,519 --> 00:32:35,839
where I felt like guys pitched really well. Like I

613
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,519
know the runs that were on the board for Vanderbilt,

614
00:32:38,559 --> 00:32:40,440
but like I think the weather conditions obviously if they

615
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,400
got it up in the air, that thing was just traveling.

616
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,960
But I do feel like, and correct me if I'm wrong,

617
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,519
but it feels like Garcia and Sheer and they came

618
00:32:47,559 --> 00:32:50,400
in and more than just watching the stat line, like

619
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,680
they kind of closed that game down, gave the offense

620
00:32:52,799 --> 00:32:55,440
time to not only play catch up, but to pull

621
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,079
ahead and stay ahead. Like it felt like even though

622
00:32:58,079 --> 00:33:00,559
maybe the numbers don't say it, like there was some

623
00:33:00,599 --> 00:33:02,119
good on the mount on Sunday as well.

624
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought Williams threw really well, you know, his

625
00:33:06,799 --> 00:33:08,920
little back thing like tighten up, but he could have

626
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,720
kept going. But it's like I think I said, this

627
00:33:11,799 --> 00:33:14,680
epic game, like that guy being healthy for the next

628
00:33:15,319 --> 00:33:17,839
next eighteen months is probably the key to my life.

629
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,319
So it just like we had a fot before runs.

630
00:33:21,839 --> 00:33:24,079
It's like, you know, Coach Davin would have lost his

631
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,039
mind if either of you guys would have got hurt.

632
00:33:26,079 --> 00:33:28,000
You know. It's kind of one of those things like

633
00:33:28,119 --> 00:33:31,359
I I just I made it, and we we had

634
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,559
a little bit of wiggle room, and really what was

635
00:33:33,559 --> 00:33:35,480
in a really important game to win too, and I'm

636
00:33:35,519 --> 00:33:38,000
just like, nah, like we're not doing this, so he

637
00:33:38,079 --> 00:33:40,559
could have kept going. I thought he pitched out standing

638
00:33:40,839 --> 00:33:45,240
in the game. And then you know, we ran into

639
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:50,000
you know, an inning with Rizzy that was kind of interesting,

640
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,240
and you're right, I mean there was, and we benefited

641
00:33:52,279 --> 00:33:54,279
from this too. In the first inning, the conditions were

642
00:33:54,359 --> 00:33:58,039
very offensive. One of their guys just had a routine

643
00:33:58,079 --> 00:34:00,319
pop up that just kind of kept carrying it off

644
00:34:00,319 --> 00:34:02,119
the top of the big wall for a double and

645
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:03,039
a couple of runs.

646
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 9: So that was part of it.

647
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,119
Speaker 2: You know, Garcia similar kind of thing, ran into some

648
00:34:09,159 --> 00:34:11,639
bad luck. I thought Sharon did a great job. We

649
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,199
made two errors in the infield. Otherwise I don't think

650
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,559
he would have given up any runs, and so because

651
00:34:17,559 --> 00:34:21,480
the homer came right after two errors, so he did

652
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,760
a great job. And then I was really proud of

653
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:27,320
Cooper Williams coming back and finishing the game clean and

654
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,400
had another good inning on Tuesday. He's a guy that

655
00:34:30,159 --> 00:34:32,800
you know, is really capable of pitching well often and

656
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,039
so that was good to see, so you're you're You're

657
00:34:35,039 --> 00:34:38,400
probably right the series as a whole, Like, I think

658
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,000
we left a lot to be desired on the mound,

659
00:34:41,039 --> 00:34:43,119
but we're we're working on it hard, and we have

660
00:34:43,199 --> 00:34:46,159
good pictures like this. The pitching talent in our program

661
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:47,760
is not an issue right now. We got to get

662
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:52,440
them better and you know, and have them execute to

663
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,800
take some pressure off of the of the offense and

664
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,559
tell some guys, you know, find their way at this level.

665
00:34:59,159 --> 00:35:01,199
Speaker 4: I'll follow up on that that last point you were making,

666
00:35:01,559 --> 00:35:03,679
and we know that the talent level there certainly on

667
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:04,119
the mound.

668
00:35:04,679 --> 00:35:05,159
Speaker 3: Is there?

669
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,639
Speaker 4: Is it just and you look back at the Friday

670
00:35:07,639 --> 00:35:08,880
game with Case and that it is probably not the

671
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,280
best out and that he would have liked to have.

672
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:11,199
Speaker 3: Is it? Is it?

673
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 4: Is it guys that are just like close and just

674
00:35:13,079 --> 00:35:16,239
missing spots or is there is there larger issues that

675
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,239
need to be kind of worked out over time?

676
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:23,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's a little bit of everything, like

677
00:35:23,679 --> 00:35:27,039
and we're looking at it. You know. Internally, we had

678
00:35:27,039 --> 00:35:31,639
a three hour meeting on Monday just discussing our staff

679
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,400
and basically how to get them on the rails and

680
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,760
how to pitch to their capability and Yeah, use, there's

681
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:40,599
a number of things to look at, you know, like

682
00:35:40,679 --> 00:35:44,199
a bigger picture. One is like, hey, like it's really

683
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,840
difficult scheduling here because you got to play at home

684
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,119
three of the four weekends because of the crowd, and

685
00:35:49,679 --> 00:35:52,119
we're tied into some tournaments for another couple of years.

686
00:35:52,159 --> 00:35:54,400
But like, hey, do I need to bring in like

687
00:35:55,159 --> 00:35:59,199
PCU or somebody like I'm just Texas Tech or you know,

688
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:03,119
UCLA in a non conference weekend so that our staff

689
00:36:03,199 --> 00:36:06,000
is ready, you know, opening weekend of SEC play. And

690
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:10,280
you know, again with the scheduling, you know, parameters were

691
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,639
under That's that's a lot harder than it sounds to

692
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:17,280
actually do that, But that was a layer of it.

693
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:18,840
But that was like a big picture and then the

694
00:36:19,159 --> 00:36:23,679
more micro or smaller focused stuff making sure the relievers

695
00:36:23,679 --> 00:36:26,159
are ready to go with you know, coming out of

696
00:36:26,159 --> 00:36:28,400
the pen and a couple adjustments we can make with that,

697
00:36:29,199 --> 00:36:32,000
making sure like we were flipped a little bit this

698
00:36:32,079 --> 00:36:35,679
week of how the starters are preparing, you know, relative

699
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,400
to their bullpender in the week and then their bullpen

700
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:42,280
leading into the game. You know, when a guy goes

701
00:36:42,639 --> 00:36:45,360
gets off the rails with a pitch or two, making

702
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,480
sure they're clear on their adjustment, you know, whether it's mental, visual,

703
00:36:48,599 --> 00:36:52,679
or physical to get back on it. You know, Kotcheski's

704
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,880
you know great at staff's are always great at throwing strikes.

705
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,159
So it's like there's some guests play intricacies that we

706
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,599
adjusted with a few guys, and so we just they're

707
00:37:02,639 --> 00:37:07,880
young players. We just got to keep advancing them, and

708
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:09,880
so I just I want to make sure we as

709
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:13,400
a staff are giving them every chance to be successful,

710
00:37:13,559 --> 00:37:16,280
and we will continue to do that. I thought take

711
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,679
opponent out of it Tuesday was a step in the

712
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:20,760
right direction because that was a number of guys that

713
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:23,280
we count on and getting them back on the mound,

714
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,039
and I thought they executed great in the game. It's

715
00:37:26,079 --> 00:37:27,719
great to see like Grant font No come out and

716
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,719
get us a couple of clean innings, pause finishing it out.

717
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:32,880
He's going to be a star here. He's he's coming

718
00:37:33,079 --> 00:37:36,000
fast ricking, you know, got us a scoreless inning in

719
00:37:36,039 --> 00:37:38,559
the first. So there was a lot of positives and

720
00:37:38,599 --> 00:37:40,880
we we just got to keep working. That's part of it,

721
00:37:41,679 --> 00:37:44,719
you know, controllable weeken control, which is the preparation part.

722
00:37:44,599 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 3: Of this, cause know what else you have baseball coach

723
00:37:47,519 --> 00:37:51,000
Jay Johnson here on OTV. All right, coach, got a

724
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:55,119
new series starting tonight Thursday, Friday, Saturday series against Oklahoma,

725
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,440
another great baseball team. Like you said, that's what the

726
00:37:58,519 --> 00:38:01,800
SEC is. Kind of give us maybe a preview of

727
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,800
Oklahoma what we can expect inside the box this weekend.

728
00:38:06,119 --> 00:38:08,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're playing well. Like I mentioned, they're one of

729
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,320
those teams that's seventeen and four or eighteen and three

730
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:17,199
or something like that, great record. They've pitched really well.

731
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,159
They have a lot of velocity on the mound, like

732
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:24,000
hard throwing guys like art throwers, good out pitches, good

733
00:38:24,039 --> 00:38:27,400
brand of offense like they have a lot of fast players.

734
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,840
They have a lot of old players. Very similar team

735
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,840
to the team we played last year, just a year older.

736
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,760
You're better, you're stronger, a little more physical, dynamic. They

737
00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,440
can it's ball over the fence a little bit more

738
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:41,679
than they did a year ago. But they're really really

739
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,960
aggressive on the base path and have a really good

740
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:48,039
style of play. So the last year we were able

741
00:38:48,079 --> 00:38:50,719
to play the series the way we wanted to play it,

742
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,719
and it's really important against these guys. You know, Kentucky,

743
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:57,000
similar deal next week because they definitely have a distinct

744
00:38:57,039 --> 00:38:57,719
style of play.

745
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,800
Speaker 4: Yes, coach, as we get ready for the series, I

746
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,599
wanted you to just kind of pick your brain a

747
00:39:03,639 --> 00:39:06,360
little bit. Take us through your process before a game

748
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:10,079
before weekend series, Like how do you kind of make decisions,

749
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:15,440
build the lineup and balance the who has a better bat,

750
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,679
who has the better glove? How do you balance that

751
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,719
lineup each and every game? Is there a plan for

752
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:21,719
all three going into it, or you'd kind of take

753
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:22,440
a game by game.

754
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,760
Speaker 2: It's there's a plan, but definitely game by game. The

755
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,639
best way to do it is get guys that are

756
00:39:29,679 --> 00:39:33,199
balanced on both sides of the ball that you know

757
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:36,840
can make a positive contribution on offense and defense. So

758
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,159
like you look at I'll just use last year's team

759
00:39:39,159 --> 00:39:41,440
as an example because it was a championship team. Like

760
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,960
the value in Luis Hernandez and Danny Dickinson was they

761
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:47,599
were very good on both sides of the ball, So

762
00:39:47,639 --> 00:39:50,880
you weren't you weren't pinch hitting, you weren't platuning for

763
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,480
those guys, and the more you play, the better you get.

764
00:39:53,639 --> 00:39:57,280
But if you have an area you're trying to compensate for,

765
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,559
you know, it's my job as a coach and where

766
00:40:00,599 --> 00:40:02,360
you think you should have to or shouldn't have to.

767
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:04,480
It's like Tuesday night, I mean in terms of how

768
00:40:04,519 --> 00:40:06,400
we use the pitching, how we use the eight and

769
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,920
nine hole in the lineup, it's like until we get going,

770
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:12,199
like that's the way you have to do it. And

771
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,000
I don't mind it that way because I think it

772
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,800
it's more guys involved in all that. But ultimately, our

773
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,599
job is to win every game that we play. So

774
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,440
there's a thorough process. As soon as I hang up

775
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:25,880
with you guys, I'm walking in here with the staff

776
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:30,159
and kind of going through our outline. It's a faster

777
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:34,320
week obviously, start on Thursday, so everybody's you know, spent

778
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,400
the last you know, since the end of the game

779
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:40,199
on Tuesday to today on Oklahoma. I got to be honest,

780
00:40:40,199 --> 00:40:43,199
I cheated. I did some stuff on Tuesday before on

781
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:47,159
Oklahoma and that's very out of character for me. But

782
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,920
we got that coming right now and then we'll make

783
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,480
some decisions, you know, on the lineup. And there's some

784
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,760
some interesting things in this series that we have to

785
00:40:56,159 --> 00:40:58,559
have to pay attention to, and so there may be

786
00:40:58,599 --> 00:41:00,639
some some couple different things than usual.

787
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:04,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, coach, and like we were talking beforehand, a guy

788
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,519
like Jake Brown, who's hitting four hundred and just crushing

789
00:41:07,519 --> 00:41:10,760
the ball eleven homers, thirty seven RBIs already Like I'm

790
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:12,719
sure part of the conversation is, Okay, we got to

791
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:14,639
make sure this guy gets pitches, like we got to

792
00:41:14,679 --> 00:41:17,719
make sure that everybody's doing their job around him as well,

793
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:19,960
because I mean, he's hitting so well and he's been

794
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:23,000
so good at the plate. He hasn't been chasing anything,

795
00:41:23,079 --> 00:41:25,559
and he's got as many walks as he does strikeouts,

796
00:41:25,599 --> 00:41:27,840
and so I'm sure like that those are big conversations

797
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,119
that feel like they're easy, but a lot of thought

798
00:41:30,159 --> 00:41:32,199
goes into something like that to make sure your guy

799
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:33,519
is getting an opportunity.

800
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt, and he has helped like last year.

801
00:41:40,199 --> 00:41:42,880
You know, use that only as an example of point

802
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,360
of comparison, you know, I mean I mentioned Luis. I

803
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:49,039
mean he's hitting the eight hole in some games in

804
00:41:49,079 --> 00:41:52,000
the NCAA tournament, and nobody has bigger hits than that guy,

805
00:41:52,199 --> 00:41:56,039
you know, and so like he putting pressure that you

806
00:41:56,079 --> 00:41:59,079
can score two runs in every inning that you play.

807
00:42:00,119 --> 00:42:02,559
Tell guys get going. You have to pay more attention

808
00:42:02,639 --> 00:42:05,400
to what you were talking about. And you know, Derek

809
00:42:05,599 --> 00:42:07,599
for me is one of the best players in the country.

810
00:42:07,679 --> 00:42:09,800
So I mean, ideally you'd like to hit and lead off,

811
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,960
but you know we've hit him behind him for a

812
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:17,159
few games here just to help that cause. And he's

813
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,480
cashed in. And you know, our best scenario is you know,

814
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:25,519
Banfield nine, Mileum one and then Brown Imperial two three.

815
00:42:25,599 --> 00:42:28,119
You know, four guys that won us a championship, all

816
00:42:28,159 --> 00:42:30,800
batting right in a row. Kind of putting Jake in

817
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,039
the middle of that. But it's a game by game thing,

818
00:42:33,119 --> 00:42:36,480
like we've flipped it on Tuesday for a very specific

819
00:42:36,519 --> 00:42:38,119
reason and it was great. You know, Chris got to

820
00:42:38,159 --> 00:42:40,719
pick to RBA single, you know, and the bases loaded.
