24
00:01:03,079 --> 00:01:04,319
my god, everybody's so nice to me.

25
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:06,799
Speaker 2: Everybody's been so sweet, so nice.

26
00:01:06,879 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 5: I don't appreciate what he's about to the implication that

27
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:10,120
he is.

28
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 2: I wonder, I wonder if we were to go person

29
00:01:13,239 --> 00:01:15,519
by person enough, I was to interact with the exact

30
00:01:15,519 --> 00:01:17,599
same people, if they would be as nice to me.

31
00:01:18,719 --> 00:01:21,239
Speaker 5: It's not my fault that this is like a desert

32
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:25,519
for women. It's like when I go to March Madness

33
00:01:25,519 --> 00:01:28,359
with my dad to Vegas. It's like it's like one

34
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,840
of me to like eight hundred mentio. We need to

35
00:01:32,879 --> 00:01:34,120
get a laundry to March Madness.

36
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, get a lunder to March Madness. Indeed.

37
00:01:36,879 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 5: Uh Well, So I learned something interesting yesterday and maybe

38
00:01:40,239 --> 00:01:42,959
I've just always taken it for granted. But like I'm

39
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,159
not from Louisiana. So we're doing the bit where we

40
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,159
ask people who aren't from here to pronounce words they're

41
00:01:49,159 --> 00:01:51,959
reading them to trying to pronounce them, and or with

42
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,680
Michael Junior, Yeah, and you know, I like ordered them.

43
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,280
I'm like, we're gonna go like easiest to most challenging,

44
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,920
and I put first and he looked at that word

45
00:02:03,359 --> 00:02:06,239
like it was I mean, he was just like, this

46
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,199
is impossible. But like I think land Yap's like a

47
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,280
pretty normal word, even if you don't live in Louisiana.

48
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,560
I'm not from here, yeah, but.

49
00:02:14,599 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 2: You have a little bit, but you have a little

50
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,319
bit of neighborly instinct. I mean, you're not from as

51
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,080
far away as he is. I'll say this for sure.

52
00:02:20,199 --> 00:02:23,120
When I came over here after and this is somebody

53
00:02:23,159 --> 00:02:25,840
with a lot of Louisiana connections growing up and and

54
00:02:25,879 --> 00:02:27,639
you know, come back my entire life. But when I

55
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,319
came over here from Georgia, I had no idea what

56
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,719
land Yap was. I just how to pronounce it, the word,

57
00:02:33,759 --> 00:02:35,240
what it meant. I didn't know anything.

58
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 5: I also feel like if you have some general idea

59
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,520
of how letters work together, you could probably figure lan

60
00:02:41,599 --> 00:02:42,080
yap out.

61
00:02:43,319 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 3: I don't.

62
00:02:44,319 --> 00:02:50,879
Speaker 2: I don't entirely disagree, but I'm a genius and I

63
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,680
did not. So that's kind of where my hesitance it

64
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,479
comes into play. Yes, exactly exactly. Well, we did end

65
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,759
up uncovering though you were talking with gold guess after

66
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,919
maybe the most damning piece of avangs because were kind

67
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:06,800
of proud of him. He nailed some of the pronunciations.

68
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:08,479
Of course, he used to play for the New Lem

69
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,520
Saints for a little bit. Uh, but he's dating a

70
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,400
girl from Lafayette, so he probably should.

71
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 3: Have known Land.

72
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 6: Yet.

73
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,719
Speaker 2: Yes, I think he probably should have known Land.

74
00:03:17,879 --> 00:03:22,039
Speaker 5: He was not as impressive after we learned that, but

75
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:22,840
he did pretty good.

76
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:23,199
Speaker 4: Uh.

77
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 5: And then we did Stug Gotts. He didn't do as well.

78
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 2: Wait, so I haven't seen the Stu Gotts video yet,

79
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,520
so I've been on the lookout. Okay, okay, okay for

80
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,840
those that don't know Stu Gotts is I mean really

81
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,400
Dan and Stu uh, Dan Lebatorda Stugots. Those are like

82
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,400
my radio muses. I really try to fashion myself as

83
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,800
almost like a combination of the two. I'm terribly upset.

84
00:03:45,039 --> 00:03:46,280
I think it see him, but I had to run

85
00:03:46,319 --> 00:03:47,840
over to uh mostly Sports.

86
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,479
Speaker 3: How was house?

87
00:03:50,599 --> 00:03:53,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm so sad you weren't there to video us

88
00:03:53,319 --> 00:03:54,599
and commentate the whole time.

89
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,479
Speaker 2: Hey, I thought I did good filming, Mike Coulock Junior,

90
00:03:58,520 --> 00:03:58,879
what do you.

91
00:03:58,879 --> 00:04:01,159
Speaker 5: Mean you did great? It's just funny. We were like

92
00:04:01,199 --> 00:04:04,520
watching it back last night and yeah, Sondra and Chris

93
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:09,439
Marly were like, Bob's coming, Yeah him, you were gassing

94
00:04:09,479 --> 00:04:11,240
him up. I'm trying to embarrass him, and You're like,

95
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,000
you're doing great, sweetie, dude.

96
00:04:13,039 --> 00:04:17,639
Speaker 2: Look, hey, I'm an Look, I'm an on air personality.

97
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,079
You can't put me behind the camera. You can't put

98
00:04:20,199 --> 00:04:24,560
Bobby in the corner. Was when he was like, oh, no,

99
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:26,120
you don't have to put the cardo. Well, but we'll

100
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,439
do it in post. Wait, you don't have to put

101
00:04:29,439 --> 00:04:29,920
the cart up.

102
00:04:29,959 --> 00:04:30,759
Speaker 5: We'll do it in post.

103
00:04:30,879 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, what do you want to focus on

104
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,920
the freaking little note card every time? As well?

105
00:04:36,959 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 5: Guys, what are we doing here?

106
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:39,319
Speaker 3: No?

107
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:40,959
Speaker 2: You know how long that video would take if you

108
00:04:40,959 --> 00:04:42,000
sit there and held the carter.

109
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 5: I literally turned the cart around. I was asking you

110
00:04:46,519 --> 00:04:49,079
to zoom in, you to stand still.

111
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 7: Also, the word the word that Golic Junior like absolutely butchered,

112
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,279
like couldn't even couldn't even remember what he said. You

113
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,079
hear t Bob in the bag go, oh, that's not

114
00:04:58,199 --> 00:04:59,839
that bad dude. I'm like, no, it was.

115
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 3: It's not that bad.

116
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 2: Dude, like I told him, and I'll stand by it.

117
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,000
He got like fifty five to sixty percent of each

118
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,120
word correct. He barely hit one hundred, but but he

119
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,000
got he got he got most correct.

120
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 5: Okay, So to kind of circle this all back, so

121
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,399
when I do with Stu Gott's I was like, he

122
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,120
was like, how to do this? Afterwards, I was like,

123
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,480
I think you did pretty well. I was like, you

124
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,120
might have done better than you know, Golic Junior. And

125
00:05:23,199 --> 00:05:25,000
he was like. I was like, which is surprising to

126
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,319
me because I would have assumed Ole Junior already gotten

127
00:05:27,319 --> 00:05:29,759
all these words. And Stu Gotts was like, well, you

128
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,920
know what. He was like, I He's like, I'm intward

129
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,759
Ocha whenever he was coming into media, and he was like,

130
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,879
I remember one of the best pieces of advice that

131
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,040
I gave him was wait.

132
00:05:40,079 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 2: So Stucott said, the best piece of advice. That's that's

133
00:05:42,759 --> 00:05:45,720
funny to highlight because normally it's like the best piece

134
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:46,800
of rice that I received.

135
00:05:47,959 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 5: You said the best he's of advice I ever gave

136
00:05:52,079 --> 00:05:56,879
him was give them what they need. So he was like,

137
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,000
do you think Golic Junior really didn't know how to

138
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,720
say those words? Are giving you what you needed? And

139
00:06:01,759 --> 00:06:03,920
I was like, I was like, that's true. I was like,

140
00:06:03,959 --> 00:06:05,519
all right, were you just giving me what I needed?

141
00:06:05,519 --> 00:06:07,800
Then he's like no, no, no, I'm stupid. He was like,

142
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:08,240
I'm done.

143
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 3: See that's classics. Dude.

144
00:06:09,759 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 2: Dude plays the fool, but he always.

145
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 3: Has a little he's written.

146
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,519
Speaker 5: That's what he was saying. What he was like, I

147
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,600
hate these words, but I have written a book. I

148
00:06:17,639 --> 00:06:19,959
do know about the word. He wrote a book, he said,

149
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,959
he did, I mean, didty? I don't know. I have

150
00:06:22,319 --> 00:06:23,639
not didn't do any fact checking.

151
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 2: Diddy, I know he's I don't want to talk about

152
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:27,199
this hour.

153
00:06:27,519 --> 00:06:27,879
Speaker 6: All right.

154
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 2: That's a bad joke, My bad guys. You know, you

155
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,759
take a lot of shots. I went to stand up

156
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,639
last night, which is pretty interesting.

157
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 3: Rivers.

158
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,639
Speaker 2: You strike me as someone who would be deeply uncomfortable

159
00:06:36,639 --> 00:06:40,639
in an intimate stand up environment. I just see a

160
00:06:40,639 --> 00:06:43,959
lot of nose scratching going on if a joke doesn't land, which.

161
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,199
Speaker 5: To be fair tough, I would be sitting front row

162
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,399
smiling at them but giving them the thumbs up, like

163
00:06:50,439 --> 00:06:51,720
you're you're doing great.

164
00:06:51,879 --> 00:06:54,959
Speaker 2: I mean, you think I was gassing up Joey this thing.

165
00:06:55,079 --> 00:06:57,079
This room's probably, like you know, I don't know, fifty

166
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,720
square feet. There's like twenty people in there, randomly, a

given someone, is be careful. If you go all effort

222
00:09:09,519 --> 00:09:12,399
all the time, people are gonna start to expect that. Better,

223
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,519
establish a baseline of mediocrity, and then turn it up

224
00:09:15,519 --> 00:09:16,240

00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:48,679
Speaker 2: How you made it in the radio game, because it

331
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,679
really okay. So look, so I've been doing this now.

332
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,679
I'm about to be thirty six on Sunday, happy, thank

333
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:56,320
you very much.

334
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:57,159
Speaker 3: Not to brag.

335
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:02,919
Speaker 2: I've been doing uh daily radio since I was twenty three,

336
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,000
since like twenty thirteen. And here you sin at the

337
00:14:06,039 --> 00:14:09,159
pinnacle of the profession, the great set and everything back there.

338
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,360
What was the beginning of your journey? I mean it

339
00:14:13,759 --> 00:14:17,639
was what do you love? Madison? Yes, I mean from Madison.

340
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,320
Then you're like in South Beach all over the place.

341
00:14:20,519 --> 00:14:22,399
What's this journey been like? It's been awesome.

342
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 9: So I start, I'm from New York originally, okay, and

343
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:29,200
I went to University Wisconsin, Madison, And oddly enough, this.

344
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:30,919
Speaker 3: Is all I ever wanted to do my entire life.

345
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 9: Really, at nine years old, I listened to the radio

346
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,639
in New York and I heard Mike and the mad

347
00:14:36,639 --> 00:14:38,639
Dog and Christopher mad Dog was so I ended up

348
00:14:38,679 --> 00:14:40,919
working for and with for twelve years, and I work with.

349
00:14:40,879 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 3: Again now at ESPN. Yeah, I'm like, that's what I

350
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:43,440
want to do.

351
00:14:43,919 --> 00:14:46,159
Speaker 9: But you know, because you're in it that how many

352
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,440
people in and around Louisiana come up to me and

353
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:49,320
be like, oh, I love sports.

354
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:50,799
Speaker 3: I would love to do what you do, right, Yeah,

355
00:14:50,919 --> 00:14:53,639
all the time. And then my follow up is always cool,

356
00:14:53,679 --> 00:14:56,960
do you love radio? Like what? Like, do you love radio?

357
00:14:57,159 --> 00:14:59,360
Because that's actually what I do. Further, that's what you

358
00:14:59,399 --> 00:15:00,440
do for you say.

359
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,519
Speaker 2: Very good point, very sillyent point there.

360
00:15:02,559 --> 00:15:06,159
Speaker 9: Everyone loves sports, yep, not everyone loves the medium in

361
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,039
which you and I are in to deliver the sports

362
00:15:09,039 --> 00:15:10,879
conversation that we delivered well.

363
00:15:10,879 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 2: And it's funny because, like I mean, I remember growing

364
00:15:12,679 --> 00:15:15,240
up in Atlanta and there were the two live stews

365
00:15:15,279 --> 00:15:15,600
in the AFF.

366
00:15:15,679 --> 00:15:16,639
Speaker 3: They were great. Yep.

367
00:15:17,039 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 2: I remember touching Jimmy and Leslie, which is kind of

368
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,200
a ryebald shock jock kind of mourning each other. I know,

369
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,000
Steaks and bro Steaks that those are my guys. Yeah,

370
00:15:26,039 --> 00:15:28,159
seven ninety the Zone, back of the day, six't eighty

371
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,600
the Fan. But yeah, to your point, like how I

372
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,000
used to think about morning shows like those were those

373
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,759
are my guys that can be company. I loved it,

374
00:15:35,799 --> 00:15:38,480
looking forward to it and I've never really been cognitizve

375
00:15:38,519 --> 00:15:41,200
of that. You're right, Like, I loved the actual radio

376
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,840
itself as an entertainment media.

377
00:15:43,919 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 9: Well, think about all the people that are listening to

378
00:15:45,639 --> 00:15:49,120
you right now. Okay, they all obviously loved sports or

379
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,200
else they wouldn't be tuning in. But there's some part

380
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,200
of what you're doing every single day that they love you.

381
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 3: Hey, Kevin, Kevin and Gandhi.

382
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,919
Speaker 9: Look good, that guy, he's just so cool.

383
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 2: He always times you have Stanley Tucci in the Hunger Games.

384
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:03,639
Speaker 6: He's just got a compliments.

385
00:16:03,679 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 2: I think he's got this dazzling white teeth when he smiles,

386
00:16:07,279 --> 00:16:09,159
just like ah, just bursts onto this.

387
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,519
Speaker 3: He's so good at what he does. Oh my god,

388
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,200
is he good? Away, I'll tell you all. End it

389
00:16:13,279 --> 00:16:15,480
up there, dude. Yeah, Well, I'm.

390
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 2: Sorry, go out to you say people.

391
00:16:17,159 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm saying people love you, but it has to

392
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:21,799
be you, right, it has to be the like the

393
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,120
meant so. I see all the LSU gear, right, So

394
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,639
people are getting all kinds of LSU information everywhere, but

395
00:16:27,679 --> 00:16:30,960
the way in which you're conveying it is different than others, right, Yeah,

396
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:32,320
And I think that's the whole point.

397
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 2: Well, That's what I tell people all the time, because

398
00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:36,799
you're like, oh, Steve Naggs was wrong about this. The

399
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,159
guys that might be wrong, right, I'd be entertaining. It's

400
00:16:39,159 --> 00:16:41,320
like they want to listen to you or not some

401
00:16:41,399 --> 00:16:42,559
of it being right. I mean, yeah, if you're like

402
00:16:42,559 --> 00:16:45,320
a gambling professional, sure maybe in that sense you need

403
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:46,919
to be right or wrong. But outside of that, dude, no,

404
00:16:47,279 --> 00:16:48,840
can you can you make people laugh? Can you make

405
00:16:48,879 --> 00:16:50,879
people have a good time or enrage them, whatever the

406
00:16:50,919 --> 00:16:54,159
case may be? Right, do people want to listen to you?

407
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,399
It's obviously people do with you. And you've been doing

408
00:16:56,399 --> 00:16:59,200
this for so long. When did you feel like or

409
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,120
how the kind of your first big break come about?

410
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:03,559
Like what was that moment like when you're like, oh

411
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,720
my god, I think like like I think I'm actually

412
00:17:05,759 --> 00:17:06,559
going to be able to do this.

413
00:17:06,759 --> 00:17:10,039
Speaker 9: Yeah, so I think it was getting a phone call

414
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:15,319
December of two thousand and two. Okay, so I was

415
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,160
at the University of Wisconsin, Madison.

416
00:17:17,319 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 3: No I lied it. Oh yeah, December two thousand and two.

417
00:17:19,599 --> 00:17:23,599
Speaker 9: So I was at UW Madison and had graduated and

418
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,000
started working at ESPN Radio at the time in Madison, Wisconsin,

419
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,640
and these two guys who I saw all around campus

420
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,200
all the time and all around the Badger events, who

421
00:17:33,319 --> 00:17:36,519
owned and ran radio stations, called me out of nowhere. Hey,

422
00:17:36,559 --> 00:17:39,279
we'd love to have dinner with you tonight. And I

423
00:17:39,319 --> 00:17:41,880
was already in radio. And you said, when things change,

424
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,640
because this is like when did the breakdown? So I

425
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,599
was already in radio, and these guys called me and

426
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,400
they said, we're starting a radio station in West Palm Beach, Florida.

427
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,799
It was the largest market in the country without an

428
00:17:51,799 --> 00:17:52,599
all sports radios.

429
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 2: This took place in you at beaver.

430
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 3: Dam, Wisconsin.

431
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 9: When you want to talk about the middle of nowhere,

432
00:17:58,519 --> 00:18:00,799
that is the middle of nowhere out there find you.

433
00:18:01,039 --> 00:18:03,519
So I was on a competing radio station. I was

434
00:18:03,559 --> 00:18:08,200
doing sports and traffic Hell yeah, like actually calling traffic

435
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,000
reports teeth.

436
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,079
Speaker 3: Hell yeah. So I was doing I was the traffic reporter.

437
00:18:12,599 --> 00:18:16,559
Speaker 9: And interestingly enough, Madison, Wisconsin does not feel like a

438
00:18:16,559 --> 00:18:17,960
place where there's a lot of traffic.

439
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,079
Speaker 3: There's not. So when you're a traffic reporter.

440
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:25,640
Speaker 9: And you're driving around in a traffic mobile and it's like,

441
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,079
what miss Johnson made a left out of.

442
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,559
Speaker 3: Her driveway back to you, Bob.

443
00:18:30,039 --> 00:18:33,079
Speaker 9: So they they had me come to this dinner, like

444
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,519
the whining and dining was like a dirty, dirty restaurant

445
00:18:36,799 --> 00:18:39,400
with like, you know, five people in the restaurant. And

446
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,480
they said, we're starting a radio station in West pom Beach, Florida.

447
00:18:42,599 --> 00:18:44,359
It was the largest market in the country without an

448
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,799
all sports radio station dedicated to the market, and we'd

449
00:18:47,839 --> 00:18:50,039
like you to be a part of it, damn. And

450
00:18:50,079 --> 00:18:52,400
so it's it's like you and I have both worked

451
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,519
in radio. You're turning thirty six on Sunday for a

452
00:18:54,559 --> 00:18:58,000
long time, but have you ever started a station from scratch?

453
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,880
Speaker 3: It didn't exist. Uh No. So that's the opportunity that

454
00:19:02,039 --> 00:19:02,599
I got.

455
00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:05,519
Speaker 9: And that's what I'm like, Okay, I'm either gonna like

456
00:19:05,559 --> 00:19:07,680
we're either all in or all out on this because

457
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,640
we were doing sales, marketing everything. Ironically, enough back to

458
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,759
you for a second. The model for that station was

459
00:19:14,759 --> 00:19:17,200
seven ninety in Atlanta, no Way, which is one of

460
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:18,359
the stations you grew up on.

461
00:19:18,519 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I grew I was already I feel

462
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,200
like it was already big when I kind of came online.

463
00:19:23,279 --> 00:19:25,079
I guess I've never thought about the origins of seven

464
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:26,680
ninety was but it's not.

465
00:19:26,599 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 3: One of these historical stations that was around for one hundred.

466
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,279
Speaker 2: Years, true, like like a eight to seventy here in

467
00:19:31,319 --> 00:19:33,160
New Orleans. That's where I got my start. And that's

468
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:37,480
like you know historic three years, yes, exactly. So that's

469
00:19:37,519 --> 00:19:38,279
how it all started.

470
00:19:38,279 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 9: And then everything kind of led to the next thing

471
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:41,960
was in West Palm Forever. Got to call out of

472
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,279
nowhere from Serious XM to work there with mad Dog,

473
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,920
who I grew up like wanting to be like it

474
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,240
was amazing. And then down down the hall from Howard

475
00:19:49,279 --> 00:19:51,119
Stern it was the greatest radio host of all time.

476
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 3: Wow.

477
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 9: And then you know, I'm still doing the West Palm

478
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,759
stuff as I'm doing that, and then all of a

479
00:19:55,799 --> 00:19:58,519
sudden a year and a half ago, I get a

480
00:19:58,559 --> 00:20:00,839
phone call from ESPN Radio that we're starting a show

481
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,000
with Chris Kanty, Michelle's Mollman and myself with unsportsmanlike as

482
00:20:04,039 --> 00:20:06,359
you mentioned, and now here here at the super.

483
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,799
Speaker 2: Bowl and here at the super Bowl. Okay, real quick

484
00:20:08,839 --> 00:20:10,160
on the super Bowl. Then I want to give back

485
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:15,279
to maybe nerding out about radio. I think the storylines

486
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,279
are obviously many, and the narratives I think are going

487
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,839
to make any game very interesting. I mean, of course

488
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,799
you have the Chiefs trying to be unparalleled, Brady Cherry,

489
00:20:24,079 --> 00:20:26,559
Mahomes chasing the ghost of Brady and whatnot. I find

490
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,880
Jalen Hurts to be fascinating. Here two years ago, out

491
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,279
plays Mahomes. It has the one moment, the fumble, the

492
00:20:32,319 --> 00:20:34,680
one moment that he has to now live with for

493
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,240
the subsequent two years. It ends up costing him the title.

494
00:20:37,279 --> 00:20:42,559
Here he since though, finally with another opportunity. What bone

495
00:20:42,559 --> 00:20:44,799
are you chewing on this week? What most interests you

496
00:20:44,799 --> 00:20:45,519
in Sunday's game.

497
00:20:45,599 --> 00:20:49,279
Speaker 9: I love dominance in sports. I'm odd like that. I

498
00:20:49,279 --> 00:20:51,759
mean a lot of people hate it. I love following

499
00:20:51,799 --> 00:20:56,559
the dynastic teams and so the Mahomes part of it

500
00:20:56,319 --> 00:20:59,799
is what is most exciting to me. And I will

501
00:20:59,839 --> 00:21:01,880
say something about the Eagles, okay, because I think a

502
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,000
lot of people have gotten to the place of just

503
00:21:04,079 --> 00:21:05,799
dismissing Jalen Hurts.

504
00:21:06,039 --> 00:21:08,799
Speaker 3: Yeah right, and like they found him.

505
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 9: And I'm working with ZIP recruiter today obviously, and they're

506
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,039
recruiting different people and talented obviously, if you're looking to

507
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,119
hire there the place, and if you're looking to apply

508
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:16,799
there the place.

509
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts was this guy that was like, you.

510
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:20,559
Speaker 9: Know, I had to almost send in the resume, like

511
00:21:20,599 --> 00:21:22,480
the ZipRecruiter, like, hey, I'm a third round pick or

512
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:23,559
whatever it did, second round pick.

513
00:21:23,599 --> 00:21:25,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like and we all knew about him in college.

514
00:21:26,079 --> 00:21:26,880
You know about him.

515
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,279
Speaker 2: I mean you're saying his So his senior year, if

516
00:21:30,279 --> 00:21:32,119
it wasn't for Joe Burrow, would be one of the

517
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:33,960
greatest years of all time. I think you do it

518
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,400
for like thirty six hundred yards over thirty touchdowns, less

519
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,759
than ten pigs, seven years of completion. He rushed for

520
00:21:38,839 --> 00:21:41,440
thirteen hundred he rushed for twenty two touchdowns.

521
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,640
Speaker 3: Unbelievable. But Joe Burrows there, and think about hurts for

522
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:45,119
a second.

523
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,519
Speaker 9: I am amazed that he got benched in the National

524
00:21:49,559 --> 00:21:52,039
Championship game and came back the next year.

525
00:21:52,599 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 2: And then and it just again.

526
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 9: If people forget about that, you don't people forget about

527
00:21:56,759 --> 00:22:00,000
there was an Alabama year after the benching before Oklahoma.

528
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 2: Well, it's pre portal, so he had to graduate to

529
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,599
be able to transfer be eligible immediately. So he stuck around.

530
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:11,680
And then in a wonderful, just high character kind of

531
00:22:11,799 --> 00:22:15,079
narrative that played out in the SEC Championship two, it

532
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:16,559
goes down and he has.

533
00:22:16,519 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 3: To come in.

534
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 9: Wait, you just head on time. That's that's brilliant. Let's

535
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:24,119
talk about this for a second. Hypothetically, Jalen Hurts his

536
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,240
career in college started today?

537
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 3: Okay? Yeah?

538
00:22:27,519 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 2: Would he have ever made it to Oklahoma? I think

539
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:32,319
it would have been a year earlier. I don't know

540
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,720
if he ends up Oklahoma. Sorry, yeah, I don't think

541
00:22:34,759 --> 00:22:36,759
he sticks around for that. And then I don't think

542
00:22:36,799 --> 00:22:39,039
they have him in that SEC championship the next year

543
00:22:39,039 --> 00:22:40,079
when they would have needed him.

544
00:22:40,039 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 9: Right, so he would have been benched, would have left

545
00:22:42,799 --> 00:22:45,480
after the bench? Yeah, although maybe he wouldn't have been

546
00:22:45,519 --> 00:22:47,759
Maybe he's such a high character guy.

547
00:22:48,559 --> 00:22:51,799
Speaker 3: But everyone else, can we just almost hold hands? Is

548
00:22:51,839 --> 00:22:52,599
that what just happened here?

549
00:22:53,039 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 2: But I don't think it's really a character slight if

550
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:55,359
he would have left.

551
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 6: No, I agree with you.

552
00:22:56,519 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 9: But you brought up a great point because there was

553
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,839
no option. And by the way, back to ZipRecruiter, that's

554
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,200
that's the whole point. If you're looking to apply for

555
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,720
different jobs, ZipRecruiter is the powerful matching technology that helps

556
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:08,079
you do that.

557
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 3: And that's both for the employer and the employee. ZipRecruiter

558
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:12,720
and the other thing.

559
00:23:12,599 --> 00:23:15,319
Speaker 2: About it is though it's like okay. Well, also, though

560
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,599
to say that he had to stay doesn't take away

561
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,839
from why it's impressive, because it's about how you conduct

562
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,079
yourself in the situation that you're in, right, right, and

563
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:30,119
he conducted himself by staying locked in, not complaining, staying ready,

564
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,799
and when his team needed him, he was still there.

565
00:23:32,799 --> 00:23:35,160
And football is the ultimate team sport. And that's why

566
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,200
I just I know, like you said, you love the dynasty,

567
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:42,559
you love the dynastic moments here, but I find Jalen

568
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,640
Hurts to be the most sympathetic character in this entire time.

569
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 9: I agree with you, I would love and then I

570
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,000
am ready for him took.

571
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 2: It's a little bit of Siriani not getting any respect

572
00:23:52,759 --> 00:23:57,880
despite the incredible record forty twenty four playoff appearances too,

573
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:58,960
super Bowls ridiculous.

574
00:23:59,039 --> 00:24:00,559
Speaker 3: Can I ask you one thing on the way out here, Yeah,

575
00:24:00,759 --> 00:24:02,720
let's go. Is Brian Kelly on the hot seat?

576
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 9: Uh?

577
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 3: So I said this this morning.

578
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,160
Speaker 2: Financially, elis shoe's a bit strapped where a hot seat

579
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:09,880
is still tough because the buyout's so big.

580
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 3: Uh.

581
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 2: And it's still you know, it started one hundred million.

582
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,039
It's going down like ten Mili, he gets the remainder

583
00:24:14,039 --> 00:24:16,480
of the conject whenever if that was come beast. But

584
00:24:17,559 --> 00:24:21,720
if they cannot contend for a championship this year with

585
00:24:21,799 --> 00:24:24,359
the pieces they haven't played, Number one portal class three,

586
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,880
top ten high score recruiting class row, a returning quarterback

587
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:28,759
that's on the top of all the hides lists. If

588
00:24:28,799 --> 00:24:31,279
you can't compete for a championship this year, then I

589
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,160
refuse to believe that you ever will. So like so,

590
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,839
I don't know about firing, but those are the parameters.

591
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,599
He's kind of backed into his last He's back into

592
00:24:39,599 --> 00:24:41,920
the corner of do we still believe that he's a

593
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,960
top five, top ten coach in the entire country?

594
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,119
Speaker 3: Excellent point. Love it.

595
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,960

00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:37,960
Did all the the stereotypical veteran things, got in trouble

661
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,440
to law, drinking too much thought I should should have

662
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,880
died that night when I was rationalizing out and that

663
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,440
that moment of desperation, it was my dog. It was

664
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,039
an old English bulldog, the one that I knew that

665
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,319
he wouldn't be better off if I wasn't here anymore.

666
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,599
He ended up in the shelter and be killed like

667
00:27:53,599 --> 00:27:56,160
the other eight hundred thousand healthy training will adoctable dogs

668
00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,359
in this country. And so that was enough purpose, enough

669
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:04,279
reason for me to see through that depression and start

670
00:28:04,319 --> 00:28:05,799
putting one foot in front of the other, whether it

671
00:28:05,839 --> 00:28:07,680
was the flesh and blood foot giving by God or

672
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,559
the carbon, fiber and steel foot given by science.

673
00:28:10,599 --> 00:28:13,559
Speaker 6: But we end up starting in twenty seventeen.

674
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 10: We focused on service dogs at first, but then I

675
00:28:15,759 --> 00:28:18,240
looked around at how this was being done, and it

676
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,079
was so much waste. There was so much overregulation when

677
00:28:21,559 --> 00:28:23,440
ninety nine percent of the veterans out here.

678
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,279
Speaker 6: We don't need an eighty eight.

679
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 10: Medical assistance service dogs, right, But dogs and humans have

680
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,519
been working together for thirty five thousand years.

681
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 3: True.

682
00:28:31,039 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 10: There's tons of dog trainers out there, there's tons of

683
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,920
dogs out there, and there's tons of ways you can

684
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,880
work with your dog to enhance or improve your life.

685
00:28:39,279 --> 00:28:41,200
And what we miss from the military is being a

686
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:41,839
part of a team.

687
00:28:42,279 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 6: Now.

688
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 10: People are complicated, but dogs, man, they love you unconditionally.

689
00:28:46,279 --> 00:28:47,359
Speaker 6: They're always ready.

690
00:28:47,599 --> 00:28:49,799
Speaker 10: So if we can train the veterans and the dogs

691
00:28:49,799 --> 00:28:53,680
to shed hunt, mushroom hunt, you know, agility courses, doc diving,

692
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,720
whatever they want to do service dog work, Yeah, Sierra

693
00:28:56,799 --> 00:28:59,720
Delta will provide not only the education and the community

694
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,799
around that, but up to thirty five hundred dollars in

695
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:02,559
training grants.

696
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 3: It's incredible. Man.

697
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,759
Speaker 10: We take no government money, so we need everybody out

698
00:29:05,759 --> 00:29:08,200
there that wants to donate help businesses like one of

699
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,319
our best partnerships is with Blue Buffalo and Walmart. They

700
00:29:11,359 --> 00:29:14,400
run an annual campaign that generates six hundred thousand dollars

701
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:18,319
for us every year and they tell us every time

702
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,680
they do a campaign with Share of Delta, and we

703
00:29:20,759 --> 00:29:23,960
feature vets like Michael Smith and everybody else and their dogs.

704
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,279
We exceed their best sales expectations by double digits.

705
00:29:27,559 --> 00:29:30,799
Speaker 2: Damn dude, Wait so so then, what what's your story man?

706
00:29:31,039 --> 00:29:32,559
How did you get involved in Shara Delta?

707
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 3: Yeah?

708
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:37,079
Speaker 12: So so, first, I did twenty four years in the army.

709
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:38,359
Speaker 3: Damn guys, he's.

710
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 10: Always got to one up somebody because he did eleven without.

711
00:29:46,119 --> 00:29:49,119
Speaker 12: His arm So yeah, I did, the last half of

712
00:29:49,119 --> 00:29:52,519
my career was without my arm. So and then I

713
00:29:52,599 --> 00:29:58,559
do some professional triathlone. I'm professional cyclist so Olympics. Yeah, yeah,

714
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,079
the status. But yeah, I uh Matt bj we was

715
00:30:02,119 --> 00:30:05,559
doing a Wonder Warrior MPT football team, and you know,

716
00:30:05,599 --> 00:30:07,200
he kept telling me I needed a dog, and I

717
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:08,279
was like, yeah, bro, cool.

718
00:30:08,799 --> 00:30:09,319
Speaker 3: Yeah.

719
00:30:09,359 --> 00:30:10,839
Speaker 12: I didn't grow with pets, so I was like, nah,

720
00:30:10,839 --> 00:30:13,319
I'm cool. And it wasn't till he pretty much forced

721
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,960
him in my life. That's when I realized, like, oh dang,

722
00:30:17,079 --> 00:30:18,720
I didn't even know I needed it until I got it.

723
00:30:18,799 --> 00:30:20,119
Speaker 2: It's like you get a little you get a dog,

724
00:30:20,119 --> 00:30:21,519
You're like, oh my god, how long you fish?

725
00:30:21,599 --> 00:30:23,799
Speaker 3: Yeah. It's funny because I used to make fun of

726
00:30:23,839 --> 00:30:25,960
the people. You know, you see the people getting licked

727
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,839
in the face and yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I

728
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:30,319
used to make fun of those people and here I

729
00:30:30,359 --> 00:30:31,359
am now one of them.

730
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,119
Speaker 6: Yeah, behind closed doors. So it's cool.

731
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,119
Speaker 10: Us is his dog, and like, so he does triathl

732
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,200
Like right now he's just focusing on Olympic biking, but

733
00:30:40,319 --> 00:30:42,319
Zeus is trained to run next to him when he's biking,

734
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:43,960
run next to him and he's running, and when he's

735
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,559
in the pool, Jus just hangs out on the deck

736
00:30:46,759 --> 00:30:48,599
and Zeus.

737
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,279
Speaker 12: Is we've done over three marathons together.

738
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 2: Wait, so okay, so Mike so so, so he's telling

739
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:54,839
you all, but he's like, hey, man, you need to

740
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,319
get involved. You need to get involved. And then so

741
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,400
all of a sudden, the dog inners. You're like like,

742
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,720
oh my god, this is incredible. And then were you

743
00:31:01,799 --> 00:31:04,079
just inspired to to to kind of get the word

744
00:31:04,079 --> 00:31:05,240
out there to other veterans?

745
00:31:05,279 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 12: I was, man, because it changed my life in such

746
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,720
an impactful way, you know what I'm saying, Like, who.

747
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,119
Speaker 3: Am I not to pay that for it? You know

748
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:13,519
what I mean?

749
00:31:13,599 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 12: And so me and BJ were friends long before that,

750
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:20,119
and you know we talk a lot, and you know

751
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,480
I just told him, man, like bro, whatever, whatever you

752
00:31:22,519 --> 00:31:25,200
need for me whatever we can do together, and he

753
00:31:25,279 --> 00:31:27,200
always reminds me, like, bro, this is not my thing,

754
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:28,519
this is this is our thing.

755
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,960
Speaker 10: So all the veterans, yeah, you know our core value

756
00:31:32,039 --> 00:31:37,240
spelled epic. It's empowerment, purpose, innovation, and community. Community is

757
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,599
the most important. Right, people might not be able to

758
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:41,559
understand what we did in the military, even though I'll

759
00:31:41,559 --> 00:31:43,680
tell people all the time. Joining the military is like

760
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,880
painting by numbers. Anybody can do it. Yeah, right, you

761
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,839
just have to have the commitment. But you know you

762
00:31:49,839 --> 00:31:52,920
can understand that relationship with a dog, right. Sixty eight

763
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,640
percent of American households have a dog in it. Sure, right,

764
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,079
So let's build a community around that. Let's not talk

765
00:31:58,119 --> 00:32:01,680
about disabilities. Like, we're having these struggles in the veteran community,

766
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:03,440
and I've been an advocate.

767
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,559
Speaker 6: Now I get injured to No. Four retired like sixteen.

768
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 10: Eighteen years, and I promise you the number one reason

769
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,839
why we're struggling so hard in the veteran community is

770
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,279
how we deliver services to them.

771
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 2: So okay, So I expound, okay, expounded that because I

772
00:32:18,759 --> 00:32:20,599
was actually gonna be my next west V days, Like

773
00:32:20,599 --> 00:32:22,839
what what do y'all think is the.

774
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 3: Number one issue.

775
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 2: So what what do you mean by in how we're

776
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:27,000
delivering services?

777
00:32:27,039 --> 00:32:29,279
Speaker 6: Just so the VAH Yeah.

778
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 10: All right, So the VA they get a half a

779
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,200
trillion dollars annually in budget.

780
00:32:34,079 --> 00:32:35,559
Speaker 6: There's eighteen million veterans.

781
00:32:35,599 --> 00:32:37,799
Speaker 10: Can you tell me the percentage of how many veterans

782
00:32:37,799 --> 00:32:39,200
they take care of annually?

783
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:40,519
Speaker 2: But yeah, that doesn't make any I mean that they

784
00:32:40,519 --> 00:32:43,079
would feel like there's more than another right.

785
00:32:43,519 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 10: They only service thirty percent of the veterans. What, we're

786
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:49,000
not guaranteed health care everbody thinks we're guaranteed health care.

787
00:32:49,279 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 2: You're guaranteed care.

788
00:32:50,759 --> 00:32:52,880
Speaker 10: You only get it for one year unless you file

789
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:57,200
for a disability right, and then your family's not entitled

790
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,240
to health care unless you retire or you get to

791
00:32:59,279 --> 00:33:00,240
one hundred percent.

792
00:33:00,359 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 3: Oh my god, So if.

793
00:33:01,519 --> 00:33:02,079
Speaker 6: You're not missed.

794
00:33:02,079 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 10: And even like when I left Walter Reed, I was

795
00:33:04,799 --> 00:33:07,920
blown up, lost five friends, had retained shraped, and I

796
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,640
lost a leg. I left there at fifty percent. It

797
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,400
took me eight years to get to one hundred percent.

798
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,720
Took me to get a master's degree from USC and

799
00:33:15,759 --> 00:33:18,519
an emphasis on military life and social work. It took

800
00:33:18,599 --> 00:33:23,119
me becoming an accredited Veteran Benefit officer to understand this system. Right, So,

801
00:33:23,319 --> 00:33:25,680
losing your leg below the knee is a is a

802
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,839
forty percent max rating, Losing it above the knee is

803
00:33:28,839 --> 00:33:30,279
a sixty percent max rating.

804
00:33:30,839 --> 00:33:32,799
Speaker 6: Contracting genital herpes.

805
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 10: Is a sixty percent rating.

806
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 6: Is a fifty percent rating? No way it is. It is.

807
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 10: But then you look at the nonprofits too, right, and

808
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:42,960
I love them. There's a lot of goods, Like seventy

809
00:33:43,039 --> 00:33:47,119
thousand veteran centric nonprofits. There's only eighteen million veterans, twelve

810
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,599
million of which are fifty five and older. Four million

811
00:33:49,599 --> 00:33:52,480
of that twelve men. It's seventy five and older. We're shrinking.

812
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,559
But yet all these nonprofits, the majority of them, are like,

813
00:33:55,599 --> 00:33:57,960
you have to be post nine to eleven. You have

814
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,440
to have a rating, you have to have been I'm bad.

815
00:34:00,519 --> 00:34:02,240
You have to be this, you have to be that.

816
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,440
And yet everybody keeps saying veterans, you deserve everything. But

817
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,799
when we come, we finally get to that point to

818
00:34:07,839 --> 00:34:08,480
ask for help.

819
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 6: There's conditions today.

820
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,920
Speaker 12: Yeah, but you wonder why you see, like the whole dogs, Yeah,

821
00:34:13,159 --> 00:34:14,760
you like, I used to be one of those ones.

822
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,360
Be like, man, how did you serve so much time?

823
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,599
And you're homeless or you ended up in a shelter

824
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,159
for these very reasons. R Yes, for these very JA

825
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:26,840
is talking about I did over twenty and you would

826
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,239
think like going over twenty with one arm and I

827
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:30,480
also have one kidney?

828
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,840
Speaker 3: What you know what I mean? And you should be made.

829
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:36,079
Speaker 2: You should be taking you with what you what you

830
00:34:36,199 --> 00:34:40,360
sacrificed for the richest country on planet Earth, you should

831
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:41,119
be taking care of now.

832
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:42,079
Speaker 6: No, listen to this.

833
00:34:42,119 --> 00:34:44,440
Speaker 10: Now, we did this will only I joined the Marine Corps, right,

834
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,679
that's the United States Marine Corps USMC. USMC also stands

835
00:34:48,679 --> 00:34:50,559
for you signed the mother fing contract.

836
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:51,079
Speaker 6: Right.

837
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,760
Speaker 10: So I'm not saying we're entitled. And I don't want

838
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,880
people to feel forced. So why I don't say, if

839
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:58,239
you're not patriotic, that's not my problem, right. It's like

840
00:34:58,239 --> 00:34:59,920
if you don't believe in God, that's not my problem.

841
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:00,519
Speaker 6: Right.

842
00:35:00,599 --> 00:35:03,519
Speaker 10: But I want to inspire people to want to invest

843
00:35:03,559 --> 00:35:06,000
in this community. And I want these veterans to understand,

844
00:35:06,159 --> 00:35:08,639
quit being the victim, Quit asking for.

845
00:35:08,599 --> 00:35:10,519
Speaker 6: A handout, show the strength that you have.

846
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,760
Speaker 10: You have all the agency you need to overcome these disabilities.

847
00:35:15,039 --> 00:35:16,119
Speaker 6: Damn the VA.

848
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 10: Most of these guys won't get better because they're afraid

849
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:21,440
they'll lose their benefits. If some VA raiders says that

850
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,639
they're better, they'll lose their money, they'll lose their medical

851
00:35:24,639 --> 00:35:29,840
care for their families. So we have purposely incentivized these

852
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,559
men and women not to get better. It's like their

853
00:35:32,559 --> 00:35:33,920
phone at ten crack commitments.

854
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:34,639
Speaker 6: It's so crazy.

855
00:35:34,679 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 12: So like I served after I lost my arm, everybody

856
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,280
was like, man, why'd you stay in so long? And

857
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,760
you could have just got out then, you know, and

858
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,360
got medical retirement. I was scared shitless to get out.

859
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:48,320
I was scared because I didn't know what was going

860
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,239
to happen to my life. I was like, you know what,

861
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,920
I woult have collect this active duty paycheck for as

862
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,400
long as I can, because once I'm out, you're kind

863
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:56,719
of like on your own. If you are not a

864
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,159
fan for yourself, or if you don't know somebody, it's

865
00:35:59,199 --> 00:36:00,679
that old saying is not what you know is who

866
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:00,880
you know?

867
00:36:01,039 --> 00:36:03,960
Speaker 2: I mean, think about your whole life in this one environment, right,

868
00:36:04,039 --> 00:36:05,480
you grow up in this environment. All of a sudden

869
00:36:05,519 --> 00:36:08,000
it's a very controlled, very teamwart like you said.

870
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 10: And then what you're just like cast out, Like well,

871
00:36:11,039 --> 00:36:12,840
that's my problem is like why do we have the

872
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,679
Department of Defense that when we come in we raise

873
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,559
our right hand, you know, we go to them, but

874
00:36:18,599 --> 00:36:21,960
when we get hurt or we're done, they just ship

875
00:36:22,039 --> 00:36:24,760
us off to the VAH. Like why doesn't the d

876
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,840
d own us from the moment we pledge our allegiance

877
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:28,599
until we die?

878
00:36:28,679 --> 00:36:28,920
Speaker 3: Yeah?

879
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,320
Speaker 10: Man, they get almost how many trillions of dollars that

880
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:32,159
are unaccountable?

881
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:33,119
Speaker 6: Right?

882
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 3: Complex help Right?

883
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,320
Speaker 10: So it's you know, that's why we don't take any

884
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,280
government money. We never will. I don't believe. I think

885
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,679
the government is the problem. And and I believe in

886
00:36:45,679 --> 00:36:48,679
the American people. And that's why we're calling to them

887
00:36:48,679 --> 00:36:51,199
and like we're not begging. I don't want to pull

888
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,039
your heart strings. I think everybody else has pulled the

889
00:36:53,039 --> 00:36:55,800
heart strings out of this country. Like we're not here

890
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,480
saying that we're we're needy. The only people I say

891
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:01,280
I'm disabled to us to the VA and I r

892
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,800
s yep. Rather than that, there ain't nothing I can't

893
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:04,599
do on this foot.

894
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:08,199
Speaker 2: Well, And and that's what's incredible VJ and Mike is

895
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,079

you know, no, I'm going to kind of U claim.

by Low Bears Casino Hotel, Baton Rouge.

928
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 2: I'm a radio professional, guys, I promise, okay, I know

929
00:38:48,199 --> 00:38:52,039
exactly what I'm doing, and what I'm doing right now

930
00:38:52,519 --> 00:38:55,360
is talking to one of my favorite people ever. Uh

931
00:38:55,639 --> 00:38:58,480
used to be a weekly guest of Off the Bench

932
00:38:58,559 --> 00:39:00,280
back in the day. Used to be a guy that

933
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,360
really helped me out, brought me up in this business.

934
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:08,960
Who worked at WWL together. Uh Saints Legend or Miss Legend,

935
00:39:09,639 --> 00:39:12,519
the man and you know, looking very skinny nowadays, guys,

936
00:39:12,679 --> 00:39:14,079
juice for callous or do whats up?

937
00:39:14,119 --> 00:39:15,159
Speaker 3: Brother T Bob.

938
00:39:15,199 --> 00:39:17,679
Speaker 4: I don't know if this was a good decision what

939
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:22,119
for them to allow us to be able to get

940
00:39:22,199 --> 00:39:26,320
together in New Orleans Super Bowl. We You know the

941
00:39:26,679 --> 00:39:29,320
best part about it, though, I will say, is we're

942
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,800
not amongst the street. If we were on the street

943
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,199
right now, I don't know how much work we would

944
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:35,840
be getting done, and so I don't know how much

945
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,280
work we're gonna get done now in this segment, U.

946
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 3: He wants to get a little freaky guy.

947
00:39:40,079 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 2: You you see what I'm saying, and so we I'm

948
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,199
in this is then I'm gonna ask you this.

949
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:47,639
Speaker 3: We're gonna keep it PG. No, we're not. I'm gonna

950
00:39:47,639 --> 00:39:49,880
ask me well, as much as possible.

951
00:39:50,079 --> 00:39:52,800
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask you this. Duce Chad Johnson. This morning

952
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:57,280
one tweeted, I've ended up with a young lady in

953
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,320
my bed and I don't want to be rude.

954
00:39:59,679 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 3: How to I asked her to leave? But how do

955
00:40:04,559 --> 00:40:06,360
you ask her to leave? You can't without her get

956
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:07,559
up to like what you play? There?

957
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 4: Security, there's an issue on this floor, and you know

958
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,880
we have to basically leave the premises.

959
00:40:18,519 --> 00:40:18,639
Speaker 2: Uh.

960
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,519
Speaker 4: I don't know how we ended up in this situation,

961
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:28,599
but you know, I don't want that to escalate any better.

962
00:40:28,679 --> 00:40:30,880
So I guess we gotta we gotta listen to.

963
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:34,400
Speaker 2: A security here go with the fake fire drill. You

964
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:37,760
gotta pull you got you got you gotta pull it.

965
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,559
I mean, I mean you have more experience than I do.

966
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:45,760
Speaker 4: Hey, that seems a little bold and and and and

967
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,559
situations like that at what time.

968
00:40:51,079 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 6: So it's it's it's not getting any.

969
00:40:53,639 --> 00:40:56,639
Speaker 2: Earlier that you fire drill actually does play in the

970
00:40:56,639 --> 00:40:58,480
middle of the night potentially because like it's one of

971
00:40:58,519 --> 00:41:01,719
the only things they could act happened that that could

972
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:07,960
cause everybody to have to hey, dude, oh missus predamn good.

973
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 3: This year both not not good enough to beat LSU.

974
00:41:15,599 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 4: Probably the most frustrating, one of the most frustrating games

975
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:25,079
because you had bet, you had opportunities, but you kind

976
00:41:25,119 --> 00:41:27,480
of got greedy, particularly in the first half. Yeah, and

977
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,239
you knew and I do as well, playing in that

978
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:36,239
stadium at night, and the Tigers just that confidence is

979
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,519
gonna calm and if you don't kind of put that

980
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:42,239
game at least somewhat out of reach early on, or

981
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:42,880
at least put.

982
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:44,199
Speaker 3: Them up fourteen points.

983
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, the closer it gets to the third and fourth quarter,

984
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:48,880
and if that game is close, yeah, let the stadium

985
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:49,159
come up.

986
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 6: Look, it's it's it's good good, good night. This same Susie, and.

987
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:54,599
Speaker 2: And the same thing is gonna be the case when

988
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:56,840
LSU goes to Oxford next year.

989
00:41:57,119 --> 00:42:00,239
Speaker 4: Uh, you have a you have a quarterback that's coming

990
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,639
back that has a ton of experience and that should

991
00:42:02,679 --> 00:42:04,599
be good. No that, but that's what I'm saying. And

992
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,400
in the sec when you have that, and then you

993
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,159
look at the weapons on the outside. You know l

994
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,119
s U didn't run the ball as well as they

995
00:42:12,159 --> 00:42:15,039
should have this year. Particularly we'll just call it two

996
00:42:15,119 --> 00:42:18,000
tackles that will be uh one should be a top

997
00:42:18,079 --> 00:42:20,599
ten and one will be probably still first round.

998
00:42:20,679 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, when you have that type of talent dominated crazy.

999
00:42:24,119 --> 00:42:26,360
I mean, so you got you got running behind that.

1000
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,320
If you were on this LSU team, they probably wouldn't

1001
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:30,079
won a champion. It doesn't have to It could be

1002
00:42:30,159 --> 00:42:33,639
you running back there. I mean, it's just like t bop.

1003
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:37,480
The holes are there. You have too much experience outside

1004
00:42:37,519 --> 00:42:40,000
in the tight end position. And so that was probably

1005
00:42:40,079 --> 00:42:43,760
the biggest first surprise because your defense played well enough

1006
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:47,000
even with the injuries, even with the injuries that you had.

1007
00:42:47,079 --> 00:42:50,760
And so it's always intriguing and I had the opportunity

1008
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,360
to talk to some of the guys. Look how much

1009
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:57,519
college football has changed. I mean it's always been semi

1010
00:42:57,599 --> 00:43:03,239
pro NFL, but it is like it's Triple A. It's

1011
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:09,000
and so triple A but with actual money players they're

1012
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,599
all they're all first rounders, you know, the first round. Yes,

1013
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,800
they're all first rounders. I mean, and so they are all.

1014
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,199
You know, the parking lot is a lot different, I'll

1015
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,760
put it that way. The parking lot is a lot

1016
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,719
different it used to be. You know, you got the

1017
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:27,320
hills and the comas. No no, no more of that, baby,

1018
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:28,280
No more of that.

1019
00:43:28,559 --> 00:43:29,079
Speaker 3: Uh dude.

1020
00:43:29,159 --> 00:43:33,360
Speaker 2: So uh you're you're, you're, you are promoting a healthy

1021
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,840
lifestyle right in general for everybody. And if guys everything

1022
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:38,960
you look great, man, you look really good, like you've

1023
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:39,960
been dropping the Melb's.

1024
00:43:40,039 --> 00:43:45,159
Speaker 4: Man, you look fantastic. So Rivers has has done a

1025
00:43:45,199 --> 00:43:47,800
great job. So it's really that's what it's about. I mean,

1026
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,119
it's just like you know, not only from football players,

1027
00:43:50,159 --> 00:43:53,239
but you know Americans in general. You talk about when

1028
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:55,960
when you look at the numbers and the stats, it's

1029
00:43:56,119 --> 00:44:01,239
it's it's like, whoa we gotta we got especially we're

1030
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:05,000
pretty fast. Yeah, So from an obesity standpoint, just making

1031
00:44:05,039 --> 00:44:07,960
sure that we can from from a water. I saw

1032
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,760
you have some water over there. I'm proud of you.

1033
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:11,480
Now you just gotta drink it, you gotta use it.

1034
00:44:11,559 --> 00:44:14,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a water electrolytes, guy, yes or anything.

1035
00:44:15,039 --> 00:44:17,639
Speaker 4: I like that, and so just making sure from an

1036
00:44:17,679 --> 00:44:21,599
American standpoint, we do a little bit better job at it.

1037
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,360
And for me, it's just really encouragement. It doesn't have

1038
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:26,639
to be perfect. So if you miss one of your

1039
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,199
workout days, yes it's okay. Yeah, you just got to

1040
00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:30,280
make sure that you go the next day.

1041
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 3: You can't let I mean that is so true.

1042
00:44:32,039 --> 00:44:35,840
Speaker 2: It's like you can't let the guilt compound and then

1043
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:37,800
make the situation. Just do it, just do just don't

1044
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:39,760
don't you about the big picture? Folks are what you

1045
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:41,679
