You know, instead of the top ten list, let's do

(00:23):
should be, all right, Eddie. So the top ten list
was recently unveiled. It was unveiled just a couple of
days ago where ESPN they had execs, coaches, and scouts.
They all voted on a top ten list for NFL quarterbacks.
And I mean it's kind of interesting where. I mean,
(00:46):
maybe you slot this guy at four and move this
guy down to seven, and YadA, YadA, YadA YadA. But
I thought we would do something a little bit different
over here, Eddie. I think this is a more interesting exercise.
If you look at the list of the bottom ten
quarterbacks in the NFL. Okay, you're looking at the bottom
(01:08):
of the barrel, right the bottom third, if you will.
And when you're looking at just starting quarterbacks, we're not
talking about backups over here. If you're just looking at
the thirty two starting quarterbacks, it gets really interesting who
you're gonna put in the bottom ten. Like, for instance,
when you start throwing out these names, it's like, is
(01:28):
Anthony Richardson with the Colts? Is he a bottom ten quarterback?
Right here? Right now? Is Derek Carr just throwing it
out there? Is he a bottom ten quarterback in the league?
So if you start looking around here, Eddie, and I've
got my list. It is a working list because I
thought if we compare notes, I think we can come
(01:50):
up with a better bottom ten list if you will, Okay,
So I'm gonna start with what I think is the
worst quarterback and we can work our way to who
like ends up in the bottom ten. That sound okay
to you? Sure you up for this? Okay? Now, he
(02:12):
might be the worst starting quarterback in the league right now,
And I promise you this is not a troll job.
It very well could be bow Nicks with the Denver Broncos.
He might be the worst, Eddie, I would still have
Bryce Young there. He was dead last and passer rating
last season. He doesn't have a whole lot of weapons
around him. With the Carolina Panthers, I would put bow
(02:34):
Nick's worst. I would put Bryce Young second worse. As
far as this goes, Am I losing you at all?
Or are you you still open minded as far as
this goes.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Well, I mean, it's a little harsh considering the guys
never played one second in the NFL to say he
is the worst. But I understand what you're thinking, and
somebody does have to be the worst. But that's a
little it's a little harsh again for who's just we've
never seen what he can.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Do, so it will be. But that's the thing is, man,
these rookies. That's where c J. Stroud was just remarkable
last season. A lot of these rookies are the opposite
of that, right, Like you gotta have reps in the
NFL to just find your sea legs. So I'm with you.
I understand it where it does sound harsh. He hasn't
(03:23):
even taken a snap yet, But I think that's the
point is you look at some Hall of famers, Remember
John Elway when he was a rookie, he was freaking terrible.
Like John Elway's one of the better quarterbacks ever. Peyton
Manning threw more interceptions than touchdowns, you know, so to
be anything competent in the NFL as a rookie is
(03:43):
really really difficult. There are some dudes here like Daniel
Jones is a good example with the Giants, nothing to
write home about. Daniel Jones is so far ahead of
where bo Nicks is right now. Bo Nicks might speed
past him eventually, but right here, right now, Daniel Jones
is better than bone Nicks, there is zero doubt in
(04:05):
my mind that's the case.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
The Hannesson is behind me is next level ofso.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Okay, Okay, that that wasn't supposed to happen, thank you, Hondam. Yeah,
I mean somebody's got to be there. And like I said,
I understand where you're coming from with and it just
you know, we don't we don't know. I mean, we were,
like you said, we would have said that c. J.
Stroud probably was in the bottom ten last year. Turned
out that wasn't the case.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Right to start the season, we would have said that,
and it would have turned out to be dead wrong.
Is the season played out? Okay, if you go through
this a little bit more. Third worst, I would go
with the two headed monster of Sam Darnold and JJ
McCarthy JJ McCarthy's a daisy fresh rookie, and we've got
Sam Darnold that's been nothing to write home about in
(04:55):
the NFL. I would have these two headed monster combinations
because we don't know who's gonna be the star just yet.
Fourth worst, I would say with the Patriots, I'd go
Jacoby Brissett and Drake May. Fifth worst, I would say
Gardner Minshew Aidan O'Connell. I like Gardner a bit more
than Jacoby.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Right.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Aiden's had a lot more starting experience in the NFL
than Drake May has. It makes sense to me now
where it gets interesting, Eddie, if you go six through ten,
we're talking the bottom ten quarterbacks in the NFL, just
for this upcoming season, just for twenty twenty four. Now,
all of a sudden, you're looking at these names that
are left on the list. So of these guys who
(05:38):
would just slot between six and ten, I think Daniel
Jones has got to be in the bottom ten. And
then there are some interesting names. Anthony Richardson with the Colts,
Will Levitce with the Titans. You get some of the rookies.
Jaden Daniels with Washington, the number one overall pick, Caleb
Williams just signed his deal, Derek Kaw, Trevor Lawrence, Russell Wilson.
(06:03):
I mean, any of those names that you would say, yep,
got to be in the bottom ten, even by default,
somebody's got to be in the bottom ten.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Yeah, I know. I think all those names are legit.
I haven't. There's not one name you said so far
where I'm like, no, no, the hold on a second, No.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Yeah, I think that it is a it's a fluid list.
It's you know, it's just like NFL are Like, well,
would I say college football rankings? You know, you might
have your top twenty five before the season starts, and
what do you know, a team that's in the top ten,
they lose a couple of games and you just adjust,
You adjust on the fly. But as of right now,
(06:42):
I would put Anthony Richardson with the Colts as the
sixth worst NFL starting quarterback. He didn't play that much
in college through fewer than four hundred passes. He threw
eighty four passes in the NFL last season before he
got hurt. He just doesn't have whole lot experience, Eddie.
He got a lot of ability, He's got a lot
(07:04):
of tools to work with, but he just doesn't have
a whole lot of reps. I would put him at
sixth worst. I would put Daniel Jones at seventh worst.
And that's where it gets tricky, where I think you
got to put will Levison there. I'll put him at
eighth worst, then ninth and ten. I can't put Russell
Wilson in my bottom ten. I just get Eddie. He
(07:26):
put up decent numbers last season. You look at what
he's done over a decade. He can't be a bottom
ten quarterback right now? Are you with me on that?
Speaker 2 (07:34):
I'm okay with it, Yeah, okay with it?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Okay. So are we putting one of these rookies? You're
gonna put Jaden Daniels or Caleb Williams in the bottom ten.
It's down to this. It's Jaden Daniels, Caleb Williams, Derek Carr,
Trevor Lawrence. Those are the choices who you going with
for two of the final spots ninth worst than tenth worst.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I guess if I had to choose, I would probably
go Jaden Daniels.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Okay, you go Jaden Daniels ninth worst starting quarterback. I
don't hate it. Look, he was fantastic at LSU. It's
a different ballgame in the NFL. We'll see how he does.
Are you going, okay, it's out of this Trevor Lawrence,
Caleb Williams or Derek Carr tenth worst starting quarterback who's
(08:24):
in the bottom ten right here, right now in twenty
twenty four.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I go I I would go Caleb Williams.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
You'd go Caleb.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
That's a tricky one, isn't it. Where you might be right,
but it's your mind plays tricks on you. Because Derek
Carr he hasn't been fantastic, but he hasn't been awful either,
So there's this tendency to think, Man, I saw Caleb
Williams win a Heisman, he was electric in college football.
(08:59):
It's like, well, he's in the NFL right now, right here,
right now, he very well could be worse than Derek Carr.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yeah, draumatic pause, Yeah, I agree. You had a Doug
Gottlieb moment there. No, we put all the rookies on here,
and I think it's understandable. There's a learning curve, you know. CJ. Stroud,
I think was the exception not the rule. Is it
possible one of these guys could have eventually a you know,
(09:30):
a season like him, or maybe second half of the season.
They kind of put it together and maybe you'd redo
the list at that point. Maybe, But for now, going
into the season, I'm putting all the rookies in there.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
It's pretty sobering, isn't it. Where listen, there are there
are a lot of Colts fans there live man Anthony
Richardson's going to be back look out for us. And
you start looking around the entire NFL and you start
putting these this whole list together, and you're like, he's
in the bottom ten right now, Like he's a bottom
(10:03):
ten quarterback in the NFL. Subject to change. Light bulb
might go on, he might stay healthy, he might show
a lot of skill and passing ability, all that good stuff.
But right here, right now, Anthony Richardson of the Colts
is a bottom ten quarterback in the NFL. That's just
where he is. Lack of experience, lack of production, lack
of you name it. That's where my head is at.
(10:26):
So I don't know. I think that exercise is interesting
as well. Top ten is fun, but I think going
with the bottom ten quarterbacks is an interesting exercise as well.
You have any strong stances as far as the top
ten quarterbacks, go Eddie, Is it just Patrick Mahomes has
to be number one? And then as long as you're
(10:47):
not doing something stupid, you can kind of jostle these
guys in different order. How do you feel about the
top ten quarterbacks?
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Are you talking about the list that you're referencing or
just like my top ten list.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
I could go with their list if you have what's
your biggest beef? This is the NFL Exacts coaches scouts.
This is who they listed. As far as the ESPN
Top ten quarterbacks of twenty twenty.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Four, for I think they had at number.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Five was they went Stafford?
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Statrafford? I thought that was high you did? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Okay the list they had Mahomes won, followed by Burrow,
Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Stafford, Herbert C. J. Stroud, Aaron Rodgers,
Jared Goff, Dak Prescott. Any major beefs.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
No, I think the one, like I said, the one
that stood out to me was was was Stafford?
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Yeah? Why you think he's near the end here? Yeah,
that sort of thing. Yeah, yeah, seven of the top quarterbacks,
seven of The eight top quarterbacks on that list are
from the AFC Eddie how about how crazy is that
he talked about talk about a stacked conference with quarterbacks.
(12:06):
That's that's pretty wild. Some people don't like where I
stand on Lamar Cliff's notes version. I think Lamar Jackson's
the most overrated player in the NFL. And that doesn't
mean I think he thinks. I don't. He's a two
time MVP. Clearly he has ability, but I think it's
just like, oh, Lamar, look this playmaker. He doesn't do
(12:26):
anything when it matters most in the playoffs. Nothing, He's
two to four. He's got a losing record like CJ. Stroud,
who is a rookie last year, has one less win
than Lamar Jackson does in his NFL career. Lamar Jackson's
not a precise passer. I don't think he's ever gonna
be this precision passer in the playoffs. I'm not gonna
(12:50):
view him like, oh, he's not a prototypical dropback quarterback.
He doesn't need to be, but I need him to
be more precise as a passer than he is. So
I don't have him as a top five quarterback in
the NFL. A lot of people disagree with that, but
you got to show me something more in the playoffs
and being a two time MVP. That's great and all,
but I don't want you to go crazy in Week
(13:12):
nine against the Titans or something like. I want him
to show up in the playoffs when it matters most,
and he hasn't. So I don't have him in the
top five. Sorry, can't do it.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yeah, I probably have him five or six. I'm not
the biggest fan of his as well, although I will
say I think he's probably the most exciting player in
the NFL because of some things he does. But I
think the formula is out there. If you get a
lead on the Ravens and they can't run the ball
and he can't. You know, his legs aren't as big
(13:42):
of a factor as they would be if they had
the lead, and you make him throw the ball, that's
a formula for success for you.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah, And look, man, I don't think either of us
are saying he can't throw at all. He can, but
it's like that those precise three where it's a super
tight window. Maybe it's a back shoulder throw. It's one
of those like ooh throws. It's just it's not there.
(14:11):
And yeah, and.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Matt Patrick Mahomes, you know, I'll throw Joe Burrow in there,
I guess as well. Like those guys when you know
they have to throw every play because they're down in
the final minutes, and they still complete the passes and
move the team down to get over the game winning
field goal. That's an e leade quarterback Lamar Jackson when
you know he's throwing the ball when it's an obvious
passing situation right, the Clock's not that you can't run
(14:36):
the ball anymore because of the clock, and you know
he's gonna throw. He's not going to complete those passes. Yeah,
for the most part, he may get a couple, but
not to get the winning of the game.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
A couple of the numbers, Like the people that have
Lamar over Josh Allen, you people are drunk, drunk if
you look at the playoff numbers, A couple of things.
Not going to bombard you with numbers galore. But listen
to this. So Josh Allen Ellen's passer rating in the
playoffs is one hundred. Lamar's is seventy five point seven.
(15:08):
Just for context, last season, C J. Stroud, who was phenomenal, right, Eddie,
he was electric. Stroud's passer rating last year was zero
point eight higher than Josh Allen's passer rating in the playoffs. Meanwhile,
Lamar jackson is passer rating seventy five point seven. It
(15:29):
was lower than Mac jones passer rating last season. Like
mag Jones who stunk out loud for the Patriots, he
had a higher passer rating last year than Lamar has
had in the playoffs. And touchdowns to interceptions not even close.
Josh Allen twenty one to four touchdowns and interceptions in
(15:49):
the playoffs Lamar six and six? What the hell is that? Right?
But I don't know what it is. The scrutiny isn't there.
Lamar should be scrutinized way hard. Sure as a two
time MVP. The more that you prove you can do,
the more we expect. And yet the backlashes isn't there
when he doesn't do anything in the playoffs. That's just
(16:10):
how I see you.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
No, I'm with you. I we did have our disagreements,
but it ain't on.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
This Bronnie is we need to go to the disagreement. Well,
we'll just talk about Bronnie James. But the agreement. Well
apparently it's Lamar Jackson who knew. This is interesting how
it works out. Okay, special treat the Queen of Hearts

Speaker 1 (18:26):
No, thank you, Eddie. Have you ever been blown off
for an autograph? We brought up the whole autograph thing
because Jason Tatum of the Celtics he had an autograph
horror story where Lebron blew them off at one. Have
you ever been blown off for an autograph?
Speaker 2 (18:40):
No? Because all the settings in which I get autographs
are some sort of event that I go to where
the guys are signing. Yeah, sometimes they're pay sometimes they're free.
But no, so no, I've never like tried to get
an autograph of somebody I just saw out in the wild.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Yeah, okay, I want to know about to Coop's story here.
So Garrett Anderson, very good play. I had some really
good years for the Angels. Were you a big fan
of Garrett Anderson there, Coop?
Speaker 7 (19:11):
Yeah, I mean I've I've always been a big Angels fan.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Okay, So you go up and you're like, mister Anderson
and he's like, how did it go down?
Speaker 7 (19:19):
Well, my my dad and I used to after the
games go wait by the like player exit, like the
player parking lot where they you know, come out after
the game they go to their cars. I don't know
if it's even like like that anymore there or anywhere
for that matter, because we used to do that at
Dodger Stadium too, But we would go and wait and like,
(19:41):
you know, ask for for autographs, and I just remember
and and look, there were probably other players that declined
to sign things too, but you know, Garrett Anderson was
one of the best players on the team, and I
was like, I was a big Garrett Anderson fan and
he just you know, it's not like he singled me out.
There were there are people there trying to get autographs,
(20:02):
and he was just one that just kind of like
walked He just like walked past, like kind of ignored everybody.
He went straight to his car, and then Tim Salmon
came out and signed everything for a bunch of people,
and that was really cool. So yeah, I had always
been like since that moment, like Tim Salmon was my
favorite angel is that?
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Uh do you guys have any favorite autograph stories? You know,
like you mentioned Dermani Dawson, what's like the crown jewel
for you? Eddie? What's the top of the list for
you autograph wise?
Speaker 2 (20:33):
That's a good question. Probably Luke Robotie of the La KINGSA.
He was a Hall of Famer. He was the highest
scoring left winger in ANJL history until Alexandrovchkin broke his record.
He was he was drunk. Uh well, he was feeling good.
He was feeling good. He had had a few cocktails
in him and he was he was more than happy
(20:55):
to sign it. And he's like it was like the
old school King's jerseys that he you know, that he
wore back of the day, and he was just like,
oh man, this is a beautiful jersey. I love this jersey.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Yeah, so he was, he was feeling he was feeling good.
He was he was. He was more than happy to
uh to sign it.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
It sounds like he's from New Zealand or something.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
He's French Canadian.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Yeah that's cool, you coop. You got a top of
the list autograph there.
Speaker 7 (21:23):
Yeah, well the top one is kind of a sad
story actually, oh wow. Uh so it is Magic Johnson. Yeah,
and I got his autograph before I was even into sports,
really before I was into basketball. We were on the
Tonight Show together with Jay Leno, and I got him
(21:46):
somebody like, you know, Magic Johnson's on the show and
he's like, somebody's like here here, I've got you know,
a basketball card you should get like, you know, I've
got a bunch of them. Can you get me, you know,
a signed card and you can keep one of the
cards for yourself. And I was like, okay, yeah, And
I don't know, just as like a kid, I would
have it. I had it somewhere in my desk. I
didn't have it like displayed somewhere. Yeah, and I don't
(22:10):
know where it is.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Oh wow, Yeah, yeah, I lost it right there.
Speaker 7 (22:14):
But besides that, the ones that I do still have
karme alone.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (22:20):
That one was really cool. He was on an episode
of a TV show that I did, and we played
we played some one on one before the taping. Nice. Yeah,
And I was because that was something we used to
do with the crew like before like hit like the
taping in front of the live studio audience every week
and we would, you know, have a little pickup basketball
game outside the dressing rooms. And he came like he
(22:43):
was walking to the stage to do his scene and
he saw us playing. He's like, he's like, oh, you
want to play? And I was like yeah, And so
we did like a little one on one and I'm like,
you know, like driven the ball and I go to
like drive to the hoop and get old lamp and
he just he just smacks the rap out of the
ball like sends it twenty feet the other direction.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
That's awesome.
Speaker 7 (23:04):
Yeah, and then he ended up signing the basketball for me.
So that was that was a cool one.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
I'll tell you this story real fast. By the way,
we're gonna get to the Queen of Hearts right after
Eddie's update. So if you have any questions for Lorena,
hit us up hashtag at Queen of Hearts or call
in more than Welcome eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
We'll just do that in a couple of minutes here
real fast. You like this one, Eddie, because Jerome Bettis,
(23:29):
that's probably my favorite autograph story. So you know me,
I'm from South Bend and so when I would get
autographs as a kid, I would just go to Notre
Dame campus and they would always talk about Jerome loving
to bowl, like he's a big bowler, and so I would.
I would see Jerome every now and then, and so anyway,
(23:50):
I just I made this like collage. It's just like
pictures of Jerome from like Blue and Gold or the
paper or whatever. And I gave that to him and
he's like, hey, come here, and he got me this
picture of him and he signed it and he's like, hey,
hopefully we can go bowling one day. And he went
with me and my dad. We went bowling with Jerome Bettis.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
What.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Yeah, he came out. It was awesome. We went and
got like king ghiros like. We got his ball redrilled.
He had to get the thumb hole like resized, and
we went bowling and he came out to the house.
He hung out for a little while. Yea he did.
He drank from a care bear's glass. It was a
true story. And I remember I was like, hey, Jerome,
(24:33):
you want to go throw the ball around? He was
like no, He just said no, and I saw him.
I was in Houston for Super Bowl Week when it
was the Patriots They're huge comeback against the Falcons, and
Jerome was there on radio row and there was an
opening for me to go up to him and say hey.
(24:54):
I didn't want to be the guy that was like, hey, Jerome,
do you remember when And he just has this blanks
there and he plays it off like oh yeah, yeah,
I totally remember that. Like who the hell is this guy?
So I always was curious if he would remember that
or not, but I haven't. I haven't asked him if
he if he does recall that, but it was awesome.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
I have a quick Jerome Bettis story. Okay, yeah, so
it's gonna sound like a humble brage, but I don't care.
So my wife you know, she's the super duper Charger fan.
And she became friends with Ladanian Tomlins's wife through social media, okay,
and so I guess she had messaged her and saying, Hey,
we're gonna be at the Hall of Fame when LT
(25:36):
goes in, We're so excited, and she's like, oh, come
to the come to the after party. So we went
to Ladanian Tomlins in the Hall of Fame after party
in can Ohio. And so it's a it's a who's
who of you know NFL people walking around and a
lot of the old Hall of famers. They kind of
make the rounds at all the Super Bowl parties. So
(25:56):
Jerome Bettis comes in and there's a he's he's you know,
and it's all like hey, and they're hanging out, and
so I want to go say hi to Jerome Bettison.
So I'm like standing like five feet away. I'm just
waiting for him to not be talking to someone, and
that he never was not talking because like all the
guys he's taking tod like like former coaches and players,

So how do I tell her that? You know, it's
not like I'm cheating on her, but you know we
can all get along together.
Speaker 8 (29:09):
Well, you know that could be a thing. Do you
do you have her join you when you listen to
the Ben Mallor Show. Do you say, honey, let's get
in our pajamas and come over here and cuddle while
we listen to Ben Mallard together.
Speaker 4 (29:21):
It could be like a pro desiac if.
Speaker 6 (29:23):
You play it right.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
No, in fact, you got mad that she heard it
on my AirPod.
Speaker 4 (29:31):
Well, Ben's whispering in your ear. I love that.
Speaker 5 (29:38):
I love that.
Speaker 4 (29:39):
No, I definitely know.
Speaker 8 (29:40):
Make it a couple's thing, you make don't do it
all the time either. If she wants you in bed
cuddling with her without Ben in your ear, you might
want to do that sometime, you know.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 4 (29:50):
Put sports down. Put sports down sometimes.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
Yeah, yeah, you got to connect every now and then. Right, yeah,
all right, Uh, Coop's got a question from the old
Twitter over there, Coop, what is it for Lorena?
Speaker 7 (30:05):
All right, so Art Puffin would like to know what
do you value most in a friendship?
Speaker 2 (30:11):
God?
Speaker 7 (30:14):
You know what I feel like this is more of
like a learn about Lorena question than advice question.
Speaker 8 (30:20):
But honestly, for for love and dating, it's really complicated
because a lot of your friends want to.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Be in love with you, and it's really it's hard.
Speaker 8 (30:28):
I've had a lot of friends who act like friends
and then all of a sudden they're like, hey, if
you if you don't date me, we can't hang out anymore.
And so for me, like, if you're going to be
a friend, be a friend, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (30:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (30:41):
So yeah, and then if you want to be lovers,
you should make that clear.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Mm hm no, no half step in.
Speaker 4 (30:47):
Here's no half step in.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Yeah, you got it.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
You know, like life's too short for that.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
What is it dtr down to find the relationship? To
find the relationship, Lorena? You know, are we friends? We
just try and back rubs?
Speaker 4 (31:02):
What are we doing here? Are we just puddling to cuddle?
Speaker 1 (31:09):
It's like it's like the old bucket from Pizza Hut.
I don't know if you guys know that thing, But
all right, Coop, what else do you have for Lorena?
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Here?
Speaker 7 (31:17):
Donkey Sausage is asking how many how many cats does
it take to become the crazy cat Lady?
Speaker 4 (31:24):
I think forty seven is a good number.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
Forty seven.
Speaker 8 (31:27):
I know that sounds like a lot of cats, but
if you think about it, some cats live outside, some
cat lips inside. Some might be in your chimney. But
that's the fun part about being the crazy cat lady.
Your cats should be everywhere, and they should be in abundance.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
Are you still cats sitting though?
Speaker 5 (31:43):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (31:44):
I am. They're right over here, Eddie. You know Coop
and Tiger. They've been checking out most of the show.
They've been fantastic. Love these cats. I might steal them.
I'm really thinking about stealing them.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
Don't steal your girlfriend's cats. If they're your girlfriend's cats.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
Well, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 7 (32:01):
I think we got one more.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
Let's you want to talk to her forever. I actually
have a friend.
Speaker 8 (32:05):
I'm sorry this is totally sidetracking, but one of my
best friends, her and her ex had cats together and
it's crazy. How many times she'd called me, being like,
he wants to see the cat. I'm like, girl, if
you him, come and see that cat, I swear to God.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
She would let Did she want to get back together
with him? Is that the reason why?
Speaker 5 (32:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (32:25):
She thought about it a few times.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
Yeah, that's why.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
All right, you can compat my cat.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Yeah, did it ever turn into anything more?
Speaker 7 (32:33):
Or no?
Speaker 2 (32:34):
Bet the cat?
Speaker 4 (32:35):
No, no it did not.
Speaker 7 (32:37):
What is going on here?
Speaker 4 (32:39):
Let's squeeze the last one in coop. Squeeze it.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
That the cat had squeeze it again.
Speaker 7 (32:48):
I feel like this is less of an advice and
more learn about Lorena. But what would constitute a perfect
date for you?
Speaker 3 (32:56):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Goodness, feed me, feed me, and I don't say feed
me bagels. I don't want to hear that.
Speaker 8 (33:02):
Aid me bagels and whisper sweet, nothing's into my ears.
Speaker 4 (33:07):
No, just just I like to chill. I'm just I'm
a chilling. Give me something to drink, Give me a martini.
Speaker 7 (33:13):
That's all.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
Drink and chill.
Speaker 4 (33:16):
Yeah, eat and drink and chill.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
So were you big like Netflix and chill?
Speaker 7 (33:20):
That got you?
Speaker 5 (33:22):
Right?
Speaker 7 (33:22):
No?
Speaker 8 (33:22):
Netflix never ends out right because you're just too close
in proximity clicks and chill doesn't happen until you're actually
comfortable m or shouldn't.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Okay, So this is more of like what a third
fourth date type thing, Netflix and chill.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
Yeah, yeah, once you actually do the person.
Speaker 8 (33:40):
Yeah, I did a Netflix and chill date once on
the second date and he's like, why aren't you And
I'm like, what do you mean, I'm still getting to
know you, bro, So just keep it, keep it public
in in open spaces until you're actually ready to.
Speaker 4 (33:50):
Netflix and chill. There you got the situations.
Speaker 7 (33:54):
I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
That's championship advice. Lorena crushed it. Thank you. Oh my
gosh hashtag Queen of Hearts. Huh love that fantastic?
Speaker 2 (34:03):
All right?
Speaker 1 (34:04):
Coming up next, we close it down in style. This
is just bad negotiating. And then this is also a
really cool story. We'll share both of those stories with you.

Speaker 1 (34:52):
No, you know, Eddie. I think this is just a
story of horrible negotiating. Granted, I don't know much about
ransom or hacking, but I just saw this headline and
I couldn't believe it. So AT and T they were hacked, right,
you've probably heard about this sensitive information these hackers have it,
(35:17):
and so AT and T they paid an amount to
a hacker group to delete stolen data. And this from
a breach, major breach three months ago. If you ballparked it,
how much do you think AT and T paid for
this hacker group to delete the stolen information? What do
(35:40):
you think it would be?
Speaker 2 (35:41):
So hold on, because I don't know about this story. Yeah,
so they were hacked. Yeah, and then they paid another
hacker group to go in and hack the hackers and
delete the info that I don't know.
Speaker 1 (35:54):
I don't know if it was the hackers that stole
it or they paid it to a hacker group. My
guess is it's the last. But they paid a ransom
to a hacker group to.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
Ransom.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Yeah, they paid a ransom.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (36:10):
So again, like you said, the hackers hacked them and
demanded a certain amount of money paid.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
Yeah, yeah, they paid it. And that happens way more
often than you would think. How much do you think?
What do you think the amount is?
Speaker 7 (36:21):
I want to say a couple hundred million?
Speaker 1 (36:24):
Okay, what do you say, Eddie?
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Uh yeah, I'll say the same.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
Three hundred thousand dollars?
Speaker 5 (36:35):
What yes?
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Think about all the information these hackers have? They have
social numbers, sensitive private information?
Speaker 7 (36:47):
Do you think at and T was like wait a minute, right,
And they held.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Them over a barrel for three hundred.
Speaker 7 (36:54):
K So that so that tells me it's like a
it's a four teen year old dork in his mom's
basis three D on a bridge and not a hacker group.
Speaker 2 (37:08):
Ches will write you, will write you a check for it?
Where should we mail it?
Speaker 1 (37:12):
Toh, my gosh, can't believe it. Now, this was the
cool story. So there was a guy who he's a
big Pearl Jam fan, and so he sent them some
wine and then he traveled seven thousand miles to see
them in concert in Barcelona. And he had a sign
(37:32):
that said, please let me play Yellow leadbetter on guitar,
like one of their songs. And he said, ps, hope
you like the Chilean wine. And so Eddie Vedder looked
at him in the crowd. He's like, you really know
how to play guitar? You're not bs and me like
you really know. They invited him upstage on stage and
this is the fan, super fan Carlos playing this song
(37:54):
on the stage. Let me get it for you. I
did a pretty good job, like their expressions are like
(38:15):
that bad. He can play a little bit. Now, Eddie,
if you could get on stage with any band musical act,
either play an instrument, sing, who would you choose?
Speaker 2 (38:28):
I mean, I'd have to choose Metallica because that's what
you're going my favorite band. But I've seen these before. Actually,
I have seen a few of these. I think food
fighters have done it. I've seen a few of these
where they've cool guy, Yeah, it is.
Speaker 7 (38:40):
Cool, coope.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
If if you say you've talked about bagels before, if
you say it's tool
Speaker 7 (38:48):
Now, I wanted to say it is a tool, absolutely,
if I had the skills to do that,
