that's really streaming part.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
But you know what the cool thing about it is
is it came after I made one of the I
made some some smash burgers yesterday. Hell yeah, crushed them.
What kind of blend you use for your meat?
Speaker 4 (01:54):
You know what? Dark meat? You know.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
I got a cue for being a race baiter yesterday
because I lean into y'all messing around.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
It's so crazy.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
I'm not a race baiter. People, you know, stop reading
ac I know.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
But I like to check out, like what what people
are saying here and there?
Speaker 4 (02:15):
It's not it's not good.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
You know what time I use some some some fresh
ground beef, like fresh. It was fresh, and I you know,
through my through my gloves on my rubber gloves on,
and the guy's just seasoning it, and I seasoned it lightly.
I didn't go heavy on season you know how some
(02:37):
people say if you're not sneezing, you're not seasoning or whatever.
I didn't want to go too deep with the seasoning,
so I just kept it very simple, very plain. Some
fresh black pepper, some some fresh kosher salt, and balled
them up, put them in like little balls, not big balls,
(02:59):
like like real little balls like that, yeah, not like
the hand size filling balls, like like you know, like
little word.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Balls you throw them on there.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
I had the little you know, like the big cooking
pan that that creates like almost like uh, you know,
like the what's that joint call when you go to
you know, Benny Hannah, you know, like the top like
THATCHI like it looks like like a hibachi fattle flat
top grill, right, And I.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Squished them up. I squashed them down.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
They spread out, and they don't cook long, Like they
don't cook long. You flip them over. Put that cheese
on it, and then put another one on it. We
did doubles. I almost cursed like the s was good.
And then I threw the patties on like I put
(03:51):
and I used Keto buns, shouts out the PhD. I
threw my chto buns on there, and I squashed them down,
squash the buns down with the with the burger.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
I call them squash, I said, squashed burgers.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I know they're smashed, but I like, I like squashed
them down or you know, I guess smash is better
a word for it. But anyway, I was happy about them.
Oh man, I gotta tell you, I like want to
make them every day. Now I discovered something about myself.
I know how to make a smash burger.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
You can eat this?
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Yeah, so there you go, sweet. I probably should have
did that for the Super Bowl, but I didn't.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yeah, well that's all right. Did you go one patty
or two?
Speaker 4 (04:43):
I doubled them.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
I doubled all because they're small a right, you know,
they're real thin, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Like because otherwise the bun to meat ratios it's not
too much, it's too much bun, not enough meat.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
What kind of bun do you like?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (04:58):
I like them real thick and juicy. Who knows? You
can't say dark meat again for a bun sense dark
meat wouldn't make sense. I mean, but I'm saying sesame seed,
you know, Brioche, Like, what are we working with? I
used the keno like a regular regular Uh, kings Hawaiian.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
I would love to have used King's Hawaiian. Yeah, that
would have been the go to, like the real good one.
And I will do that, Like I believe I can
make a doghouse a dog house burger You guys are
up on doghouse. Now, what's what's that? It's like this
burger spot.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Oh yeah, yeah, I've never but they have hot dogs
and they was using kingswany which, by the way, why
does sticks run away from me?
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Yesterday?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Escaped artist out?
Speaker 4 (05:45):
I put him. I put him a racist, That's what
it is. Huh were you getting hostile?
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Racist?
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Bro?
Speaker 3 (05:51):
I chased him. It's like you don't don't look had
a point. He's too big. He's too big now for
me to just grab him and and like just walk them.
He's like way too big. So he I was about
to tak him for his walk, and he escapes from
his harness like he knows how to like back out
of his harness. So he backs out of his harness
and I can't you know, I'm like going to get him.
(06:14):
And he's a runner now, like he'll run away. So
I'm going to get on my neighbors, like do you
need anyhow oh the home?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
He was running away.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
So I get I catch up to him and he
goes around the car and you know how you put
your hands on the car and you're like stop that.
Stop that, shop that, stop that, stop, don't do that,
don't do that.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Stop stop.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
You know how, You're trying to get him around the car.
So finally that's really ridiculous. Looks like Lee. So also
looks like what Lee going on? So he finally starts
to run way and I try to tackle him, like
literally like boom, hit him into the bushes. We both
go into the bushes and I went down and he
did it and he kept on. And that's when I
(07:02):
realized that being a linebacker is not a part of
my life anymore. Oh no, yeah, I wouldn't be able
to take anybody down. I'd love to chase my dog down.
But well you could chase him down, just you just
have to go down, go down into the ground, you know.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Six ft under rent renting excavator and there you go,
get on down there had lunch pill type guy. Good point.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
It's the year to the boxer. Man, get you a boxer.
Hell yeah, I mean I would say get a borble,
but that might be too much dog for you, you know, yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
He's I can't take that much doll down.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
You might want to get it me, you know, you
might want ye when we go pet that dog, I'm
pet that dog.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
He don't have that much dog.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
No, can we get a round of applause to Fox?
A lot of you haters out there? A lot of people.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
Out there, the one you're setting me up right now,
are you? A lot of people tell them about it.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
You wanted to bear put dirt on what just like
just like Boss Hoggs did.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Yeah, not happening and happening.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
This dog's still alive and will one hundred and twenty
six million viewers.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
A couple of people watching me?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Yeah, how about that record setting?
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Here's what I wonder though, when you get to that
one hundred and six twenty six million, right, it's about
household correct.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
So this is why I need some conspiracy theory music please.
Oh it is, as you guys know, I'm a I'm
a geek. I like to dive into these things. No,
what if I told you that it just so happened
that January of twenty twenty five. In fact, January twenty
(08:56):
second of twenty twenty five, Nielsen, who essentially handles and
is the most trusted source in TV measurement and ratings,
just got accreditation for a new rating system, a new measurement,
for a national TV measurement system by the Media Rating Council,
(09:18):
And that is the certifying body that's basically in charge
of being the watchdog for these rating systems. What would
I tell you if that happened just this January twenty second,
twenty twenty five, I would say, is that good good timing?
It's good, great timing. Give them. The super Bowl just
(09:39):
took place. And this new rating system that just got
accredited for Nilsen is called Big Data Plus Panel. Oh,
it's a national TV measurement all right. And what it
essentially does is it takes viewership from forty five million
households across more than seventy five million set top boxes
(10:01):
and smart TVs. Right, So you've got your normal cable
subscriptions that are looked at and are monitored. You have
your normal rating for over one hundred thousand people that
they look at for their broadcast data. And then they've
bring in all this streaming now, which the game was
actually broadcasted or excuse me, stream multi free streaming, but
(10:24):
it was for free on two B all right, which
was one of Fox's moved in that regard. So when
I say, by the way set top boxes, I'm talking Roku, Comcast, Dish, Visio, DirecTV,
all those smart ties and set top boxes. And obviously
you know everyone's in on this, right, Like Amazon wants
this because they want a better way of understanding Thursday
Night Football, what their ratings are, what they're not. Netflix
(10:45):
wants this because both Netflix, which spent one hundred and
fifty million on those Christmas Day games, and Amazon is
spent a lot of money for the Thursday Night package,
they need to know too how they stack up versus
these TV networks. So now Nielsen has come up with
a comprehensive way to measure and essentially create a level
(11:09):
playing field for both TV networks and streamers. So when
you hear that number of one hundred and twenty six million,
and you give it some side act because you're thinking
to yourself, all right, let's just go back to what
took place in that game, all right, with a twenty
four to nothing blowout at halftime with the Chiefs, who
(11:30):
they're there again for the third time in a row.
We have a let's just call a halftime show that Again,
I don't have an issue with it. Some people might
have not liked it, some had an issue whatever. And
based on some early reports from the TV side that
there was supposedly a decline after halftime and even going
(11:51):
into or even you know, going at halftime, some early reporting,
but none of that, none of that's talked about now
that Neil which they'll give out their comprehensive like the
entire ratings deal how it all added together later on today.
But that is what we know is so far, and
again a little bit suspect, only because none of it
(12:15):
made a lot of sense. Like we were there that week,
I didn't feel like there was a lot of buzz
from many of the Super Bowls we've been to and
watch the game, being that was a blowout, being how
one sided it was and everything that went along with it,
these numbers are very surprising to me. But when you
look into a deeper and you figure out this is
what essentially Nielsen's done to help not necessarily inflate ratings,
(12:38):
but try to find a way of tapping in streaming
as well. That's how we get to where we're at.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Well, I mean it's very by the way, that's very
very geekish for real, like straight gee.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Here's here's my suspicion, all right, in a world now
where I think, look, everyone's curious as to like just
what's what's actually going on. It could be government spending
all that crap that's going on right now, or it
could be this where you go, like, whose interest is
it to make sure the ratings keep going up? It's
in the NFL's best interest, of course, and it's in
(13:13):
the TV it's in the TV network's best interest or
streaming party's best interest. You know who Else's in the
best interest of advertisers because they buy advertising space on
those So it's in the best interest of all parties involved.
And by the way, it's in the best interest of Nielsen.
What if Nielsen can't come up with a way to
accurately measure this to then provide that to the networks,
(13:34):
to provide it to the NFL, to provide it then
to advertisers who are paying for these spots, they'll find
someone else to do it maybe, or maybe it just
becomes something where it's the reality is that it's too
hard to figure out, and because it becomes confusing, people
are like, oh, maybe there's other ways we should be
spending our money in advertising. So again, not trying to
get on the conspiracy theory side of this, but I
(13:55):
was very surprised that this game outrated what was a
closer game last year and a back to back chance
everything else that went along with the Chiefs and Taylor
Swift and San Francisco, which is a big market. I
just it was a little bit surprised. Philly's a big market.
Though there is a.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Natural fatigue that's attached to Kansas City, and to your point,
being out there, it did kind of feel like here
we go again, Like when the Patriots went to the
Super Bowl three straight years a few years back. By
the third the numbers got worse viewership wise as you
got to the third year, because I think it was
like what we've seen them.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
Before, but there was history on the line.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Yeah, but I still there was history on the line
and there.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
But you knew at halftime that history was happenings.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Yeah, but you know what, but to a lot of people,
they would probably argue and say that if there was
anybody that could bring you back from this type of
a deficit, it would be Patrick Mahomes Like, I'm going
to check it out, you know.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
Like I don't know.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
I will say this the reason why earlier before your
wonderful explanation, totally geeking out on information, which you are
on information geek, I asked, how do they get the
numbers in terms of per house because I had the
entire l m U volleyball team at my house watching
(15:20):
the game. Shouts out to Layola Marrymont Women's volleyball and
that was you know, there was like at least twenty
people in my house watching the game. Now here's another
interesting tidbit. I don't have any boxes anymore. And I
don't have a dish. I do not have I have neither.
(15:42):
And I was I had, so what do you use frontier?
And and it's it's straight straight uh digital like it's
it's uh, it's all interesting. It's all streaming. I guess
it's all streaming, okay, right, But but I had I
had Spectrum stream on one and I had uh was
(16:03):
it Hulu? I had Hulu streaming on three others. I
had one outside streaming, I had one and like the
little dining area streaming, and I had another one in
like a little living room streaming.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
Damn got a lot of options, a lot of TVs.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
But but what I'm saying is is that it was Spectrum,
it was Hulu.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
So how how would they have rated my house?
Speaker 4 (16:33):
Right? Well, they're still going to measure each one of those,
in part because so Spectrum is just that your internet provider,
right well, Frontier is my internet provider, correct, But like
it's still going to measure each one of those in
your household. So whether you're watching on Hulu or Spectrum
or whatever app and what could be it could be
it could have been two b for example. How does
it measure it? Though?
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Like, how does like when you come up with the
amount of viewers? Does it just does it?
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Well, it's obviously not watching your room and saying there's
twenty people while but it's counting. It's counting the various
Like boxes are smart, you have smart TVs, so you
wouldn't be able to do that unless you had a
smart TV. So those TVs have the capability to be
able to be measured as far as what you're streaming,
what you're in fact, probably more accurately than even you know,
(17:17):
a broadcast.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
So what the hell does that even mean? Like, what
does that mean? So are they saying, Okay, this is
a probably a single family home, or yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
They know your demographics like that, they'll they'll understand, they
have a computation for all that, like they know where
you live. Obviously your surveys sent out. I don't know
if you've ever taken a survey. You actually can be
paid for taking a Nielsen survey like they have. I've
literally done it. Just I was curious to see what
would happen. They sent back cash? How many dollars I got?
I swear to God, like I've done before. I'm mailed
(17:49):
in a survey for Nielsen and they had given me
back cash, and I was like, this is great, I
want to send me more surveys. Didn't even take that long?
Oh no, no, no, it was like I don't even
know if it was five bucks, it might have been
like three bucks, four bucks.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
Now what though, I shouted out, I sided out there
pretty quickly. Nobody I thought it was pretty good.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Yeah, list, I mean for four or five bucks. Yeah,
I'll take a survey.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
Well, what was nice about it is you know, you
know I don't get any gifts anymore or like letters. Really,
you know, everything comes to like email for the most part.
If it's an Amazon box, it surely is not for me.
So it was nice just to open something, opening something
up with my name on it, where like someone gave
me a few bucks. I was like, oh, this is nice,
you know.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
I mean, if you want, Andy Furman sends out mail
all the time.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
The way people was up in your face at the
bar on Thursday, you could always go to a start,
you know, stripping for dollars.
Speaker 4 (18:45):
You get a whole lot of dollars. Yeah, that's a
great point. You could probably hostile about this whole situation.
I mean, it's Tuesday of the following week. You get
a wonderful point. Damn, I'm just saying I thought we
really bonded, and I didn't realize you've you a hostile No.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
I don't like people taking my shine man, even you like.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
We were bonding. We were talking about again tipping the
you were bonding a hole. What we're talking about I
mean yeah, yeah, big tips, big big tips.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
And this will conclude this uh segment of hanging out
with Brady Gwin.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
Huh what that's too bad? Hey.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
By the way, just imagine how much better the ratings
would have been if the halftime show didn't suck.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Imagine that would be sweet? Can I ask this were
they're more like messages and undertones besides just the drink stuff.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
You just didn't get it, man, you don't know what
they were trying to do.
Speaker 4 (19:50):
Because here's the thing is was it like I don't
know if it is ESPN or something. And they're like, oh,
you people didn't understand. I'm like, well, then explain it, yes,
Like don't say that you just don't get it if
you can't expect or you can't talk about what exactly
was in it.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
By the way, I thought Larna made the best point
yesterday during one of the breaks when she said there
was nothing you could really like get into, like a
Shakira song, you know those hits. You know, Oh, she's
gonna play the hits here. Like there's a lot of
people who don't know the backstory, don't know what's going on,
they're not familiar with it.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
But you're not on.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Part of the cool crowd, so you didn't get it.
You do not Okay, well, you got the biggest audience
you could possibly have. I understand why they made the
decision to go with him as their performer. It just
I'm sorry it didn't Land. They could say whatever they want,
but it didn't Land.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Some people would disagree with you, but that's what makes
the world go around.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
I mean, I at least know the whole the Drake
situation with Kendrick Lamar, so I found that highly entertaining,
especially when you looked at the camera on said the
man's name and smiled. I was like, oh, wow, this is.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Great because you know, it's like, if you say my name,
I'm going Sue. Right, if you say my name, I'm
going Sue. I'm going Sue. He looked at the cameon
and was like Drake. So I'm waiting to see if
he gets sued. To be honest, I'm certain he's going
to get some paperwork serve to him, you know, for
defaming you know, one Drake's name. But anyways, I think
(21:25):
the ratings are very interesting, I really do, and I'm
just interested in the fact that how do you how
do you measure? You know, you get to one hundred
and twenty six million people if you use my household,
you might have had one hundred and twenty six million,
and that that number one. You know what I mean
(21:47):
like because you have so here's people in one.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
Here's the biggest question that we ask ourselves every single
year around this time. That's right, there's three hundred and
thirty five million people in the United States at least
that we know of. What the hell the other two
period they're eating cats.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
That means that we're Yeah, that means that we are
overwhelmed by complete losers that are doing something other than
watching the super Bowl on a Sunday in February. It's
a damn shame. But here's what's not a shame. We've
got more to go here on the show. We are
going to have the usuals coming up later on. We
do have another edition of In case you miss NFL

Speaker 1 (22:40):

what took place.

homie just signed a fingernail polished deal and he's a
big time receiver and receiver and in college. But we
don't know what he signed for. No, it's like it's
easy to judge from outside.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
Someone's gonna pay you say, pay six figures as a
college athlete kidding me, and you do it anyway, you
put on anyway for that player. But I'm saying, even
if you didn't do it, if they came up to
you and they're like, hey, LeVar, you know you do
this whole leap thing, man, it's legendary. Guess what we've
got the LeVar leap nail polish. We want you to endorse.
(25:29):
And you're like, oh, I don't really. Then they're like,
for one hundred thousand dollars, Oh yeah, sign me up,
you know, like a heartbeat. No, c I'm not going
down that road with you, okay, but half dollars, yeah, dude.
As a college kid, I mean I was scrubbing together
changed in my dorm room, holding at pizza. I certainly
(25:49):
would think about it, but would not. I would not do.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
It diving with like a Revlon logo over the time.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
You imagine that as long as I holding like a
hair dryer or something, then you know, as he's diving.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Only if it made me a sex symbol, I wouldn't
do it. As if I was the user, that's your
soul good No, I would have used soul glow.
Speaker 5 (26:09):
You imagine your imagine your neck roll with having like
Jerry Curl juice on it, dripping yeah, ripping off the
jury Curl. I would be all in on that, dripping yeah.
And if I had revel on on my my horse collar,
my cowboy collar, I would have been okay with that.
Speaker 4 (26:28):
Any of that I would have been okay with. But
you're not going to have me all of a sudden
that people be like, man, that LeVar Anton too pretty? Yeah?
Where an eyeliner? Yeah, like hell yeah, I got an
n il deal for that too. That's going too far.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
That's going to like wearing high heels.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
Yeah, bro, this could have been a Chappelle Dave Chappelle Skip.
I missed that show. That was the greatest show. I mean,
I know it was controversial, but damn it was funny. Man,
it was. It was. But I'm not wearing no nail
polish for any of my like not not listen. I
couldn't as a college student. Yeah, you can't look back
(27:05):
inside yourself and go, yeah, I'll pay one fingernail for
five and a grand.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
I mean, all right, here's the yes I just.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Talking about.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
I'm not trying to be like like a hard ass
or this that and the other. But I'm just saying,
sometimes all money ain't good money, man, all Right. I
just wouldn't want to go back home and my uncle's
that I used to go down in the basement when
where I had my first drink of beer and learned
about you know, women and stuff like that. I just
wouldn't want to look at how they looked at me
when I go back, Like, I.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
Get, you'd be giving them, you'd be bringing the beer
from that out.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Yeah, I just I don't know, but they'd be like man.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
They they'd say what AB said to what the award?
So I'll be able to handle that.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
It's in reference to Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams apparently
signed an nil deal with There's a nail polished brand
called Sally Hanson. Not familiar with them, but they're probably
shelling out a bunch of cash to them, and that
nail paulish looks a lot different when you're just counting
out one hundred dollars bills, you know, just flicking them.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
I mean, like the color of money, you know.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Yeah, he wears it anyway, so it doesn't matter. I
just think for somebody who doesn't wear it, and it's
like they have like old school kind of ways of
looking at things, like my granddad's worked in steel mills, grandpappy, yeah, my, my,
my pat.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
And do you think there'd be someone who would wh
would yell at your grandpappy back of that steel mill?
But I just think I think would they yell what
the tweets sentiment? Oh grandpa? Every three grandsons that every
three words out of five, the award everything. So so
(28:53):
he's going to take you up out of the mill.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
He's gonna take you up out of here.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Well go ahead and hang out.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
With that in then the whole I can catch balls.
It's merman.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
These hands should have fingernail polish on them.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
I catch balls. I knew it, I do. I just
don't know.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Listen, my my, my granddaddy's would be rolling over in
their grades if I had If that's the if, that's
the lane I went down. And that's not me being like,
you know, I'm not judging this young man for his
opportunity and making the money he's making. I just don't
feel like all money is good money. And I would
really think about it, You're right, Q, I would really
(29:46):
think about it. But when I go around my family
and that would be one of the ads that are
out there, and and I'm you know, whatever it is
I got going. First of all, I would not have
fingernail polish on. I know, guys get their their nails
done and they get the clear you know, coating on
there and stuff like that. I even felt like uncomfortable
(30:08):
with that. I just felt uncomfortable with that. I don't know,
I'm not judging anybody. I mean, that's just my own
personal preference.
Speaker 4 (30:17):
And I'm not judging you because for your exact point,
I see some dudes that come up with like the
like what you're saying. They get their like fingernails done,
but it's like the nail color. Yeah, you know what
I'm saying. That freaks me out. Natural shiny ass fingers.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
And you know, in my day growing up, the dudes
that had shiny ass fingernails, you know.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Who they were, you know what, they were pemps.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
They were pimps, like Pooty Tang.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Yeah, but Pooty Tang wasn't a pimp. But they had
that type of swag to them. They pull their belt out,
they thank you with the belt.
Speaker 4 (30:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Me, that thirt look to them.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
I just wasn't trying to go down it just I
was raised a certain type of way. Call me old school,
call me old fashioned, my pet My grandparents wouldn't be
proud of me. My uncles wouldn't be proud of me
walking around with no I tried it. I tried it.
If I did it, I'd do it for relaxation. I
would not do it for vanity. How the hell how
(31:20):
does a manicure relax you? If that would fall weird
to me, like a manny and a petty, you know
I'd never do it.
Speaker 4 (31:27):
I don't just.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Because, like I know this sounds crazy, just because of
the way it sounds. I don't do it like you
want to go get a manny and a petty, Like
I'll be sitting in the parking lot waiting for for
them to get their manny's and petties done.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
What could they call it to make you want to
go get one of those?
Speaker 3 (31:43):
I don't know you, I don't know, but manny and
petty that doesn't like? That doesn't work for me.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
Wasn't there like a fingernail shaving? Would that be masculine enough?
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
What about extremity therapy? I mean, I like extreme therapy
for certainly get to the.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
Ray ray. Why is every time you say something like that,
it can be misconstructed.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
Like terribly And I'm a misconstrue it that way, and
I'm gonna go all the way and lean into that
because that falls into my category extremity therapy. I mean
sounds like sounds like one of the options Bobby Orchids
checked off when he went to Agent Orchands of Asia.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
I'm just.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
That sounds like one of the options that Sean Watson
chose when he went to get oh no, sounds like
something justin Tucker ass for with that deep tissue outer extremity,
outer extremity therapy.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
I'm just saying this is just unfortunate guys trying to
make a couple of bucks from a nail polish brand
and we get air him out on the air.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
Hey man, he uses it again. Like I said, I'm
no judgments here. He uses nail polish anyway, thus the
reason why he would be approached for it. But you
do open your cellphone, I like, and it's crazy, like
if you look at Caleb Williams's body of work this year,
like just a kind of product because he's a fingernail
(33:15):
polish guy. If you bring up his body of work
this year, his numbers are comparable to Jaydan Daniels. His
numbers are very, very comparable to Jaydon Daniels had one
of the best rookie seasons whatever in the history.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Of the Chicago Bears.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
Go yeah, I mean, I think some people, if I'm
keeping them all the way one hundred, since we hear
everyone talking about it, I think people have judged Caleb
Williams on how he is and how they feel about
him based upon little things like walking around with fingernail pologe.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
I've done a deep dive on this and I've seen
a significant drop in his passer rating when his fingernails
aren't painted. Are painting? Oh yeah, drop significant.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
I mean, maybe his receivers are resistant to wanting to
catch his balls.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
I don't know. I don't know, but you know, whatever
you're doing whatever. I don't know, man, whatever's on your fingernails.
As long as you're holding the burner.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
But you know what the cool thing about it is
is it came after I made one of the I
made some some smash burgers yesterday. Hell yeah, crushed them.
What kind of blend you use for your meat?
Speaker 4 (01:54):
You know what? Dark meat? You know.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
I got a cue for being a race baiter yesterday
because I lean into y'all messing around.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
It's so crazy.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
I'm not a race baiter. People, you know, stop reading
ac I know.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
But I like to check out, like what what people
are saying here and there?
Speaker 4 (02:15):
It's not it's not good.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
You know what time I use some some some fresh
ground beef, like fresh. It was fresh, and I you know,
through my through my gloves on my rubber gloves on,
and the guy's just seasoning it, and I seasoned it lightly.
I didn't go heavy on season you know how some
(02:37):
people say if you're not sneezing, you're not seasoning or whatever.
I didn't want to go too deep with the seasoning,
so I just kept it very simple, very plain. Some
fresh black pepper, some some fresh kosher salt, and balled
them up, put them in like little balls, not big balls,
(02:59):
like like real little balls like that, yeah, not like
the hand size filling balls, like like you know, like
little word.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Balls you throw them on there.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
I had the little you know, like the big cooking
pan that that creates like almost like uh, you know,
like the what's that joint call when you go to
you know, Benny Hannah, you know, like the top like
THATCHI like it looks like like a hibachi fattle flat
top grill, right, And I.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Squished them up. I squashed them down.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
They spread out, and they don't cook long, Like they
don't cook long. You flip them over. Put that cheese
on it, and then put another one on it. We
did doubles. I almost cursed like the s was good.
And then I threw the patties on like I put
(03:51):
and I used Keto buns, shouts out the PhD. I
threw my chto buns on there, and I squashed them down,
squash the buns down with the with the burger.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
I call them squash, I said, squashed burgers.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I know they're smashed, but I like, I like squashed
them down or you know, I guess smash is better
a word for it. But anyway, I was happy about them.
Oh man, I gotta tell you, I like want to
make them every day. Now I discovered something about myself.
I know how to make a smash burger.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
You can eat this?
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Yeah, so there you go, sweet. I probably should have
did that for the Super Bowl, but I didn't.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yeah, well that's all right. Did you go one patty
or two?
Speaker 4 (04:43):
I doubled them.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
I doubled all because they're small a right, you know,
they're real thin, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Like because otherwise the bun to meat ratios it's not
too much, it's too much bun, not enough meat.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
What kind of bun do you like?
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (04:58):
I like them real thick and juicy. Who knows? You
can't say dark meat again for a bun sense dark
meat wouldn't make sense. I mean, but I'm saying sesame seed,
you know, Brioche, Like, what are we working with? I
used the keno like a regular regular Uh, kings Hawaiian.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
I would love to have used King's Hawaiian. Yeah, that
would have been the go to, like the real good one.
And I will do that, Like I believe I can
make a doghouse a dog house burger You guys are
up on doghouse. Now, what's what's that? It's like this
burger spot.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Oh yeah, yeah, I've never but they have hot dogs
and they was using kingswany which, by the way, why
does sticks run away from me?
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Yesterday?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Escaped artist out?
Speaker 4 (05:45):
I put him. I put him a racist, That's what
it is. Huh were you getting hostile?
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Racist?
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Bro?
Speaker 3 (05:51):
I chased him. It's like you don't don't look had
a point. He's too big. He's too big now for
me to just grab him and and like just walk them.
He's like way too big. So he I was about
to tak him for his walk, and he escapes from
his harness like he knows how to like back out
of his harness. So he backs out of his harness
and I can't you know, I'm like going to get him.
(06:14):
And he's a runner now, like he'll run away. So
I'm going to get on my neighbors, like do you
need anyhow oh the home?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
He was running away.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
So I get I catch up to him and he
goes around the car and you know how you put
your hands on the car and you're like stop that.
Stop that, shop that, stop that, stop, don't do that,
don't do that.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Stop stop.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
You know how, You're trying to get him around the car.
So finally that's really ridiculous. Looks like Lee. So also
looks like what Lee going on? So he finally starts
to run way and I try to tackle him, like
literally like boom, hit him into the bushes. We both
go into the bushes and I went down and he
did it and he kept on. And that's when I
(07:02):
realized that being a linebacker is not a part of
my life anymore. Oh no, yeah, I wouldn't be able
to take anybody down. I'd love to chase my dog down.
But well you could chase him down, just you just
have to go down, go down into the ground, you know.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Six ft under rent renting excavator and there you go,
get on down there had lunch pill type guy. Good point.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
It's the year to the boxer. Man, get you a boxer.
Hell yeah, I mean I would say get a borble,
but that might be too much dog for you, you know, yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:36):
He's I can't take that much doll down.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
You might want to get it me, you know, you
might want ye when we go pet that dog, I'm
pet that dog.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
He don't have that much dog.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
No, can we get a round of applause to Fox?
A lot of you haters out there? A lot of people.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
Out there, the one you're setting me up right now,
are you? A lot of people tell them about it.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
You wanted to bear put dirt on what just like
just like Boss Hoggs did.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Yeah, not happening and happening.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
This dog's still alive and will one hundred and twenty
six million viewers.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
A couple of people watching me?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Yeah, how about that record setting?
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Here's what I wonder though, when you get to that
one hundred and six twenty six million, right, it's about
household correct.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
So this is why I need some conspiracy theory music please.
Oh it is, as you guys know, I'm a I'm
a geek. I like to dive into these things. No,
what if I told you that it just so happened
that January of twenty twenty five. In fact, January twenty
(08:56):
second of twenty twenty five, Nielsen, who essentially handles and
is the most trusted source in TV measurement and ratings,
just got accreditation for a new rating system, a new measurement,
for a national TV measurement system by the Media Rating Council,
(09:18):
And that is the certifying body that's basically in charge
of being the watchdog for these rating systems. What would
I tell you if that happened just this January twenty second,
twenty twenty five, I would say, is that good good timing?
It's good, great timing. Give them. The super Bowl just
(09:39):
took place. And this new rating system that just got
accredited for Nilsen is called Big Data Plus Panel. Oh,
it's a national TV measurement all right. And what it
essentially does is it takes viewership from forty five million
households across more than seventy five million set top boxes
(10:01):
and smart TVs. Right, So you've got your normal cable
subscriptions that are looked at and are monitored. You have
your normal rating for over one hundred thousand people that
they look at for their broadcast data. And then they've
bring in all this streaming now, which the game was
actually broadcasted or excuse me, stream multi free streaming, but
(10:24):
it was for free on two B all right, which
was one of Fox's moved in that regard. So when
I say, by the way set top boxes, I'm talking Roku, Comcast, Dish, Visio, DirecTV,
all those smart ties and set top boxes. And obviously
you know everyone's in on this, right, Like Amazon wants
this because they want a better way of understanding Thursday
Night Football, what their ratings are, what they're not. Netflix
(10:45):
wants this because both Netflix, which spent one hundred and
fifty million on those Christmas Day games, and Amazon is
spent a lot of money for the Thursday Night package,
they need to know too how they stack up versus
these TV networks. So now Nielsen has come up with
a comprehensive way to measure and essentially create a level
(11:09):
playing field for both TV networks and streamers. So when
you hear that number of one hundred and twenty six million,
and you give it some side act because you're thinking
to yourself, all right, let's just go back to what
took place in that game, all right, with a twenty
four to nothing blowout at halftime with the Chiefs, who
(11:30):
they're there again for the third time in a row.
We have a let's just call a halftime show that Again,
I don't have an issue with it. Some people might
have not liked it, some had an issue whatever. And
based on some early reports from the TV side that
there was supposedly a decline after halftime and even going
(11:51):
into or even you know, going at halftime, some early reporting,
but none of that, none of that's talked about now
that Neil which they'll give out their comprehensive like the
entire ratings deal how it all added together later on today.
But that is what we know is so far, and
again a little bit suspect, only because none of it
(12:15):
made a lot of sense. Like we were there that week,
I didn't feel like there was a lot of buzz
from many of the Super Bowls we've been to and
watch the game, being that was a blowout, being how
one sided it was and everything that went along with it,
these numbers are very surprising to me. But when you
look into a deeper and you figure out this is
what essentially Nielsen's done to help not necessarily inflate ratings,
(12:38):
but try to find a way of tapping in streaming
as well. That's how we get to where we're at.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Well, I mean it's very by the way, that's very
very geekish for real, like straight gee.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Here's here's my suspicion, all right, in a world now
where I think, look, everyone's curious as to like just
what's what's actually going on. It could be government spending
all that crap that's going on right now, or it
could be this where you go, like, whose interest is
it to make sure the ratings keep going up? It's
in the NFL's best interest, of course, and it's in
(13:13):
the TV it's in the TV network's best interest or
streaming party's best interest. You know who Else's in the
best interest of advertisers because they buy advertising space on
those So it's in the best interest of all parties involved.
And by the way, it's in the best interest of Nielsen.
What if Nielsen can't come up with a way to
accurately measure this to then provide that to the networks,
(13:34):
to provide it to the NFL, to provide it then
to advertisers who are paying for these spots, they'll find
someone else to do it maybe, or maybe it just
becomes something where it's the reality is that it's too
hard to figure out, and because it becomes confusing, people
are like, oh, maybe there's other ways we should be
spending our money in advertising. So again, not trying to
get on the conspiracy theory side of this, but I
(13:55):
was very surprised that this game outrated what was a
closer game last year and a back to back chance
everything else that went along with the Chiefs and Taylor
Swift and San Francisco, which is a big market. I
just it was a little bit surprised. Philly's a big market.
Though there is a.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
Natural fatigue that's attached to Kansas City, and to your point,
being out there, it did kind of feel like here
we go again, Like when the Patriots went to the
Super Bowl three straight years a few years back. By
the third the numbers got worse viewership wise as you
got to the third year, because I think it was
like what we've seen them.
Speaker 4 (14:32):
Before, but there was history on the line.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Yeah, but I still there was history on the line
and there.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
But you knew at halftime that history was happenings.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Yeah, but you know what, but to a lot of people,
they would probably argue and say that if there was
anybody that could bring you back from this type of
a deficit, it would be Patrick Mahomes Like, I'm going
to check it out, you know.
Speaker 4 (14:56):
Like I don't know.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
I will say this the reason why earlier before your
wonderful explanation, totally geeking out on information, which you are
on information geek, I asked, how do they get the
numbers in terms of per house because I had the
entire l m U volleyball team at my house watching
(15:20):
the game. Shouts out to Layola Marrymont Women's volleyball and
that was you know, there was like at least twenty
people in my house watching the game. Now here's another
interesting tidbit. I don't have any boxes anymore. And I
don't have a dish. I do not have I have neither.
(15:42):
And I was I had, so what do you use frontier?
And and it's it's straight straight uh digital like it's
it's uh, it's all interesting. It's all streaming. I guess
it's all streaming, okay, right, But but I had I
had Spectrum stream on one and I had uh was
(16:03):
it Hulu? I had Hulu streaming on three others. I
had one outside streaming, I had one and like the
little dining area streaming, and I had another one in
like a little living room streaming.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
Damn got a lot of options, a lot of TVs.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
But but what I'm saying is is that it was Spectrum,
it was Hulu.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
So how how would they have rated my house?
Speaker 4 (16:33):
Right? Well, they're still going to measure each one of those,
in part because so Spectrum is just that your internet provider,
right well, Frontier is my internet provider, correct, But like
it's still going to measure each one of those in
your household. So whether you're watching on Hulu or Spectrum
or whatever app and what could be it could be
it could have been two b for example. How does
it measure it? Though?
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Like, how does like when you come up with the
amount of viewers? Does it just does it?
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Well, it's obviously not watching your room and saying there's
twenty people while but it's counting. It's counting the various
Like boxes are smart, you have smart TVs, so you
wouldn't be able to do that unless you had a
smart TV. So those TVs have the capability to be
able to be measured as far as what you're streaming,
what you're in fact, probably more accurately than even you know,
(17:17):
a broadcast.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
So what the hell does that even mean? Like, what
does that mean? So are they saying, Okay, this is
a probably a single family home, or yeah.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
They know your demographics like that, they'll they'll understand, they
have a computation for all that, like they know where
you live. Obviously your surveys sent out. I don't know
if you've ever taken a survey. You actually can be
paid for taking a Nielsen survey like they have. I've
literally done it. Just I was curious to see what
would happen. They sent back cash? How many dollars I got?
I swear to God, like I've done before. I'm mailed
(17:49):
in a survey for Nielsen and they had given me
back cash, and I was like, this is great, I
want to send me more surveys. Didn't even take that long?
Oh no, no, no, it was like I don't even
know if it was five bucks, it might have been
like three bucks, four bucks.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
Now what though, I shouted out, I sided out there
pretty quickly. Nobody I thought it was pretty good.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Yeah, list, I mean for four or five bucks. Yeah,
I'll take a survey.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
Well, what was nice about it is you know, you
know I don't get any gifts anymore or like letters. Really,
you know, everything comes to like email for the most part.
If it's an Amazon box, it surely is not for me.
So it was nice just to open something, opening something
up with my name on it, where like someone gave
me a few bucks. I was like, oh, this is nice,
you know.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
I mean, if you want, Andy Furman sends out mail
all the time.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
The way people was up in your face at the
bar on Thursday, you could always go to a start,
you know, stripping for dollars.
Speaker 4 (18:45):
You get a whole lot of dollars. Yeah, that's a
great point. You could probably hostile about this whole situation.
I mean, it's Tuesday of the following week. You get
a wonderful point. Damn, I'm just saying I thought we
really bonded, and I didn't realize you've you a hostile No.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
I don't like people taking my shine man, even you like.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
We were bonding. We were talking about again tipping the
you were bonding a hole. What we're talking about I
mean yeah, yeah, big tips, big big tips.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
And this will conclude this uh segment of hanging out
with Brady Gwin.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
Huh what that's too bad? Hey.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
By the way, just imagine how much better the ratings
would have been if the halftime show didn't suck.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Imagine that would be sweet? Can I ask this were
they're more like messages and undertones besides just the drink stuff.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
You just didn't get it, man, you don't know what
they were trying to do.
Speaker 4 (19:50):
Because here's the thing is was it like I don't
know if it is ESPN or something. And they're like, oh,
you people didn't understand. I'm like, well, then explain it, yes,
Like don't say that you just don't get it if
you can't expect or you can't talk about what exactly
was in it.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
By the way, I thought Larna made the best point
yesterday during one of the breaks when she said there
was nothing you could really like get into, like a
Shakira song, you know those hits. You know, Oh, she's
gonna play the hits here. Like there's a lot of
people who don't know the backstory, don't know what's going on,
they're not familiar with it.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
But you're not on.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Part of the cool crowd, so you didn't get it.
You do not Okay, well, you got the biggest audience
you could possibly have. I understand why they made the
decision to go with him as their performer. It just
I'm sorry it didn't Land. They could say whatever they want,
but it didn't Land.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Some people would disagree with you, but that's what makes
the world go around.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
I mean, I at least know the whole the Drake
situation with Kendrick Lamar, so I found that highly entertaining,
especially when you looked at the camera on said the
man's name and smiled. I was like, oh, wow, this is.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Great because you know, it's like, if you say my name,
I'm going Sue. Right, if you say my name, I'm
going Sue. I'm going Sue. He looked at the cameon
and was like Drake. So I'm waiting to see if
he gets sued. To be honest, I'm certain he's going
to get some paperwork serve to him, you know, for
defaming you know, one Drake's name. But anyways, I think
(21:25):
the ratings are very interesting, I really do, and I'm
just interested in the fact that how do you how
do you measure? You know, you get to one hundred
and twenty six million people if you use my household,
you might have had one hundred and twenty six million,
and that that number one. You know what I mean
(21:47):
like because you have so here's people in one.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
Here's the biggest question that we ask ourselves every single
year around this time. That's right, there's three hundred and
thirty five million people in the United States at least
that we know of. What the hell the other two
period they're eating cats.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
That means that we're Yeah, that means that we are
overwhelmed by complete losers that are doing something other than
watching the super Bowl on a Sunday in February. It's
a damn shame. But here's what's not a shame. We've
got more to go here on the show. We are
going to have the usuals coming up later on. We
do have another edition of In case you miss NFL

And we'll close up shop with Lea here.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
All of that is yours here on this three hour extravaganza.
But we do have ourselves some collateral damage in the NFL,
some collateral damage in the National Football League based on
what took place.

Speaker 4 (24:26):
You know, he gives daily awards. Jonas not sure if
you've seen this.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Daily awards, the awards with inflammatory, derogatory terms. That are
the awards, like, you know, very interesting and the one
this morning was pretty Let's let's just say he's not
he's not. He doesn't discriminate on who he goes after.
I'll tell you that he does not discriminate. The young
(24:51):
homie just signed a fingernail polished deal and he's a
big time receiver and receiver and in college. But we
don't know what he signed for. No, it's like it's
easy to judge from outside.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
Someone's gonna pay you say, pay six figures as a
college athlete kidding me, and you do it anyway, you
put on anyway for that player. But I'm saying, even
if you didn't do it, if they came up to
you and they're like, hey, LeVar, you know you do
this whole leap thing, man, it's legendary. Guess what we've
got the LeVar leap nail polish. We want you to endorse.
(25:29):
And you're like, oh, I don't really. Then they're like,
for one hundred thousand dollars, Oh yeah, sign me up,
you know, like a heartbeat. No, c I'm not going
down that road with you, okay, but half dollars, yeah, dude.
As a college kid, I mean I was scrubbing together
changed in my dorm room, holding at pizza. I certainly
(25:49):
would think about it, but would not. I would not do.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
It diving with like a Revlon logo over the time.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
You imagine that as long as I holding like a
hair dryer or something, then you know, as he's diving.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Only if it made me a sex symbol, I wouldn't
do it. As if I was the user, that's your
soul good No, I would have used soul glow.
Speaker 5 (26:09):
You imagine your imagine your neck roll with having like
Jerry Curl juice on it, dripping yeah, ripping off the
jury Curl. I would be all in on that, dripping yeah.
And if I had revel on on my my horse collar,
my cowboy collar, I would have been okay with that.
Speaker 4 (26:28):
Any of that I would have been okay with. But
you're not going to have me all of a sudden
that people be like, man, that LeVar Anton too pretty? Yeah?
Where an eyeliner? Yeah, like hell yeah, I got an
n il deal for that too. That's going too far.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
That's going to like wearing high heels.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
Yeah, bro, this could have been a Chappelle Dave Chappelle Skip.
I missed that show. That was the greatest show. I mean,
I know it was controversial, but damn it was funny. Man,
it was. It was. But I'm not wearing no nail
polish for any of my like not not listen. I
couldn't as a college student. Yeah, you can't look back
(27:05):
inside yourself and go, yeah, I'll pay one fingernail for
five and a grand.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
I mean, all right, here's the yes I just.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Talking about.
Speaker 3 (27:15):
I'm not trying to be like like a hard ass
or this that and the other. But I'm just saying,
sometimes all money ain't good money, man, all Right. I
just wouldn't want to go back home and my uncle's
that I used to go down in the basement when
where I had my first drink of beer and learned
about you know, women and stuff like that. I just
wouldn't want to look at how they looked at me
when I go back, Like, I.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
Get, you'd be giving them, you'd be bringing the beer
from that out.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Yeah, I just I don't know, but they'd be like man.
Speaker 4 (27:44):
They they'd say what AB said to what the award?
So I'll be able to handle that.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
It's in reference to Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams apparently
signed an nil deal with There's a nail polished brand
called Sally Hanson. Not familiar with them, but they're probably
shelling out a bunch of cash to them, and that
nail paulish looks a lot different when you're just counting
out one hundred dollars bills, you know, just flicking them.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
I mean, like the color of money, you know.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Yeah, he wears it anyway, so it doesn't matter. I
just think for somebody who doesn't wear it, and it's
like they have like old school kind of ways of
looking at things, like my granddad's worked in steel mills, grandpappy, yeah, my, my,
my pat.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
And do you think there'd be someone who would wh
would yell at your grandpappy back of that steel mill?
But I just think I think would they yell what
the tweets sentiment? Oh grandpa? Every three grandsons that every
three words out of five, the award everything. So so
(28:53):
he's going to take you up out of the mill.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
He's gonna take you up out of here.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Well go ahead and hang out.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
With that in then the whole I can catch balls.
It's merman.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
These hands should have fingernail polish on them.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
I catch balls. I knew it, I do. I just
don't know.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Listen, my my, my granddaddy's would be rolling over in
their grades if I had If that's the if, that's
the lane I went down. And that's not me being like,
you know, I'm not judging this young man for his
opportunity and making the money he's making. I just don't
feel like all money is good money. And I would
really think about it, You're right, Q, I would really
(29:46):
think about it. But when I go around my family
and that would be one of the ads that are
out there, and and I'm you know, whatever it is
I got going. First of all, I would not have
fingernail polish on. I know, guys get their their nails
done and they get the clear you know, coating on
there and stuff like that. I even felt like uncomfortable
(30:08):
with that. I just felt uncomfortable with that. I don't know,
I'm not judging anybody. I mean, that's just my own
personal preference.
Speaker 4 (30:17):
And I'm not judging you because for your exact point,
I see some dudes that come up with like the
like what you're saying. They get their like fingernails done,
but it's like the nail color. Yeah, you know what
I'm saying. That freaks me out. Natural shiny ass fingers.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
And you know, in my day growing up, the dudes
that had shiny ass fingernails, you know.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Who they were, you know what, they were pemps.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
They were pimps, like Pooty Tang.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Yeah, but Pooty Tang wasn't a pimp. But they had
that type of swag to them. They pull their belt out,
they thank you with the belt.
Speaker 4 (30:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Me, that thirt look to them.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
I just wasn't trying to go down it just I
was raised a certain type of way. Call me old school,
call me old fashioned, my pet My grandparents wouldn't be
proud of me. My uncles wouldn't be proud of me
walking around with no I tried it. I tried it.
If I did it, I'd do it for relaxation. I
would not do it for vanity. How the hell how
(31:20):
does a manicure relax you? If that would fall weird
to me, like a manny and a petty, you know
I'd never do it.
Speaker 4 (31:27):
I don't just.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Because, like I know this sounds crazy, just because of
the way it sounds. I don't do it like you
want to go get a manny and a petty, Like
I'll be sitting in the parking lot waiting for for
them to get their manny's and petties done.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
What could they call it to make you want to
go get one of those?
Speaker 3 (31:43):
I don't know you, I don't know, but manny and
petty that doesn't like? That doesn't work for me.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
Wasn't there like a fingernail shaving? Would that be masculine enough?
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
What about extremity therapy? I mean, I like extreme therapy
for certainly get to the.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
Ray ray. Why is every time you say something like that,
it can be misconstructed.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
Like terribly And I'm a misconstrue it that way, and
I'm gonna go all the way and lean into that
because that falls into my category extremity therapy. I mean
sounds like sounds like one of the options Bobby Orchids
checked off when he went to Agent Orchands of Asia.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
I'm just.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
That sounds like one of the options that Sean Watson
chose when he went to get oh no, sounds like
something justin Tucker ass for with that deep tissue outer extremity,
outer extremity therapy.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
I'm just saying this is just unfortunate guys trying to
make a couple of bucks from a nail polish brand
and we get air him out on the air.
Speaker 3 (32:53):
Hey man, he uses it again. Like I said, I'm
no judgments here. He uses nail polish anyway, thus the
reason why he would be approached for it. But you
do open your cellphone, I like, and it's crazy, like
if you look at Caleb Williams's body of work this year,
like just a kind of product because he's a fingernail
(33:15):
polish guy. If you bring up his body of work
this year, his numbers are comparable to Jaydan Daniels. His
numbers are very, very comparable to Jaydon Daniels had one
of the best rookie seasons whatever in the history.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Of the Chicago Bears.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
Go yeah, I mean, I think some people, if I'm
keeping them all the way one hundred, since we hear
everyone talking about it, I think people have judged Caleb
Williams on how he is and how they feel about
him based upon little things like walking around with fingernail pologe.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
I've done a deep dive on this and I've seen
a significant drop in his passer rating when his fingernails
aren't painted. Are painting? Oh yeah, drop significant.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
I mean, maybe his receivers are resistant to wanting to
catch his balls.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
I don't know. I don't know, but you know, whatever
you're doing whatever. I don't know, man, whatever's on your fingernails.
As long as you're holding the burner.

I’m Gavin Newsom. And, it’s time to have a conversation. It’s time to have honest discussions with people that agree AND disagree with us. It's time to answer the hard questions and be open to criticism, and debate without demeaning or dehumanizing one other. I will be doing just that on my new podcast – inviting people on who I deeply disagree with to talk about the most pressing issues of the day and inviting listeners from around the country to join the conversation. THIS is Gavin Newsom.
