Speaker 3 (05:47):
We already know. I'll make sure she blocked.

Speaker 5 (05:49):
You're blocked on the ground, because every now and again
she feel herself and get a little frisky and post
a little some something.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
I know you go screenshot.

Speaker 5 (05:56):
I'm not screenshotting people's girlfriends. All right, Can we talk
about yes, Rob, jud we got news coming.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
From are all game fired? Coming from Sacramento? Yes, somehow,
some way. Uh, it's not bad enough that they were
an NBA Siberia. They just added a player.

Speaker 9 (06:14):
Well, first off, before we get to the news of
the day, let's go back twenty four hours, a topic
that we were sitting on we never had time to
get to.

Speaker 3 (06:22):
SGA, reigning NBA MVP.

Speaker 9 (06:24):
Did an interview with GQ magazine, right, and he was
asked about the idea different rob.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
Let me set the table for it. What's going on?

Speaker 9 (06:32):
She's Louise, go ahead, let me, yes, just run over
the middle, Rob, I throw the chest. Okay, And so
SGA was asked about this idea of these guys playing
late into their thirties, even into their forties. Right, here's
what SGA said, I definitely think I can. I won't,
though I won't want to miss that much of my

(06:54):
kid's life. That is a certain point of your career
when you reach your peak and I don't fall. Guys
were still playing. They love the game, but I just
feel like you play this game ultimately to see the
best version of me I can be. Once I figure
that out and I start going down, then it's like, Okay,
what am I playing for now?

Speaker 3 (07:10):
Well? Flash forward to today.

Speaker 9 (07:13):
Russell Westbrook, former Laker, former Rocket, former Thunder, former Jazz,
former Nugget, former Clipper, former former Oh.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
We don't have all day?

Speaker 9 (07:27):
I signed a one year VET minimum deal to join
the Sacramento Kings and finish thirteenth in the Western Conference. Rob,
What's up with guys like Russ and others? We just
can't seem to hang it up.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
It's just they're selfish and they can't let it go,
you know what I mean? Like seriously, because not only
are they just they're taking up a roster spot somebody
else could probably play.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
They're not going to get anything from it.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Russ isn't gonna win a championship, which he's never won,
and I get it. He just wants to be on
the bus, wants to be on the team, you know,
wants to still be relevant where they're still gonna talk
about Ross and he made a shot or a basket
or steal and look how much he plays with energy
or whatever. And a lot of these guys can't let
it go. I'm just I can't understand and and and SGA,

(08:21):
you know, was he talking about Lebron Like, seriously, I
don't want to be playing till I'm in my forties.
I got kids in time. I want to spend with
my kids and all that. And I think that is
a little bit of it. Where Lebron, You've been around
for a long time. I don't know what else there is.
You know what I mean that you're chasing even if
you win, You're not passing Michael Jordan.

Speaker 5 (08:43):
You got I hate to break it to you. You're
the fofote Finals failure of all time. You got more losses,
you know, than any other former MVP. There's a fact
the fun V. What's Tom Brady A man, I'm jumping
off your boat.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
I'm just saying and go, that's it. I couldn't disagree
more with you selfish, don't forget the massault.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
Kevin Durant, that's right, the most sensitive of all time,
the missault.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
Very nice.

Speaker 5 (09:14):
Well, I'm listening about to do whatever your OD is
right now. Let me figure out how oh for you.
I look at me, I'm the boat, you.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
Are the boat. I am not buying anything you selling
right now.

Speaker 5 (09:24):
This is this. I am not you at ross right now.
I'm not buying that deal. You love your career, correct
me if I'm wrong. Yes, but I'm not going to
be here forever. You already are you and you have
now you might not be, but you're not.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
I'm not Bob Bryan and those guys. So that's where
I was going.

Speaker 5 (09:44):
Who eighty years those dudes, I'm serious, Like, no, I
know you're right. We've seen it if you went out
the guys, those guys are eighty years old. I'm not
saying you're old. What I'm saying is you're in a
career where you already had it for you know, however
long forty years almost forty years, and you could have
it if you chose to another ten fifteen.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
We see it. We talk about the guys and gals
that we see.

Speaker 5 (10:05):
Sports is not that you come in at twenty twenty one,
two three, and you might get four or five or
in some cases ten years fifteen. You'll be lucky, right,
And so this is something that they know is going
to end. It has an expiration date, and they want
to enjoy it as long as possible because at the
end of the year, probably for us or Chris Paul
and these guys, that is it for the rest of

(10:26):
your life. But look, they don't have the luxury of
us getting to run our mouths for another thirty forty years.

Speaker 7 (10:32):
You know.

Speaker 5 (10:32):
If we chose to look at where Chris Paul is again,
like he's been on fifteen teams.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Like like, seriously, what possibly I start to question, do
you want to be around your family? Do you love
your wife?

Speaker 5 (10:46):
I think it's and I'm gonna tell you because it
ainate the money.

Speaker 1 (10:49):
Trust, and it ain't the money because they don't make
any money, you know, like the veterans minimum.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
I'm not making it runny.

Speaker 5 (10:54):
I think their spouses came into this, especially the guys
that were naming. You're naming or Russ. Russ has been
with his lady, his wife now four years. They both
r at UCLA. Chris Paul been with her for years.
Get it, Lebron, we know their story. My point is
there has been a sign on I know what this is.
I know I has signed up for. Lebron always talks
about how much he owes her on the back end,

(11:16):
Savannah and the children, because they had to sacrifice so
much for me to go do this thing that I
believe I was here for and I'm great for and
they are.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
Tom Brady did it for forty five Tom Brady.

Speaker 5 (11:26):
Tom Brady came Tom Brady, Monny came in later with
the wife.

Speaker 3 (11:30):
No gods, I name kind of they've been with no.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
But also he also got to the point where he
missed training camp.

Speaker 3 (11:38):
Do you know what I mean? Because he's overstayed Tom in.

Speaker 5 (11:41):
My opinion, And again I wasn't sitting in the you know,
in at the house when they're having these conversations. I
think one of the differences is she was very vocal about, Hey, man,
thiss gotta be it.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
Hey, this needs to be it. Hey we done? Hey,
what about your family?

Speaker 5 (11:54):
What I assume to be with the Chris Pauls and
west Rustbrook and I kind of know some people, you know,
like you know, they're very much all in the whole family, brothers, family,
everybody's all in on. This was the ride that we've
all taken because of you.

Speaker 3 (12:09):
You have kind of been the chosen one.

Speaker 5 (12:11):
You have this amazing opportunity to change your life, our lives,
better lives, and do something.

Speaker 3 (12:15):
Nobody's not making that kind of money now. It's not
the money.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
No, And my point is now, at some point to
just be on another team, to just be on the bench,
to just be mopping up. Why would you want to
put yourself It would be like it would be like
me sticking around Fox Sports Radio and I don't know
Scott saying, do you want to do two midday hours

(12:39):
where nobody's listening?

Speaker 3 (12:40):
Do you want to do that? I'm dealing with you
right now. What time slot? Rom midnight? I said night
job you? No, I didn't mean. He didn't We know
who he didn't mean.

Speaker 5 (12:53):
Men?

Speaker 3 (12:54):
Do you are to turn now? Let me roll my
sneezeer now because I know I'm be scrapping, rob Gee,
where'd your head go?

Speaker 5 (13:00):
Because Robgi no, he finna be scrapping, Yes, Finna finna
be scrapping.

Speaker 3 (13:07):
Telling. My point is I'm good. I don't want to
change spots.

Speaker 5 (13:10):
I'm good we have is these dudes are doing something
that me and you were. You had the baseball back
or stick or whatever y'all using in New York back
in the day, and I had the basketball and I'm
shooting hoops, or we had the tennis racket, whatever it is,
and they're getting to do something they absolutely love to do.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
That's such a small minority of people get to do.

Speaker 5 (13:30):
You get to be an NBA player four hundred and
fifty and out of eight billion people on the Earth,
I think they're gonna milk it. And Chris Paul gets
to be a leader, gets to be around, gets to
be that old vet on the team. Those young players
are like, dude, can this guy go sit out?

Speaker 3 (13:45):
So what every team needs? Can you go sawn?

Speaker 5 (13:47):
We got the first seven, eight guys who really are
gonna play eight nine guys, The last three, four or
five guys ain't playing, and we need some leadership. We
need some locker room guys. When you know what Charn
Berkley always talk about. He always talks about that he
had his vets and how grateful I mean, I mean
my guys. You talk about people who praise their mentors,
he brings them up every other week. How he didn't

(14:08):
know how to dress, he didn't know how to do money,
He didn't know about a bankc didn't know about all.
How do I get a house? How do I be
become a professional? You need those You could do all that.
They don't need to be on a team. They could
be an assistant coach, they could be a would be
on the team. I have to be on a team.
So yeah, I just think I think it's overstated. I
think you're overstating, like these dudes are like third mid
thirties or you know, thirty six, or they'll have the

(14:31):
rest of their lives.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
But they played a long time, is my point, Like
there's a shelf life.

Speaker 3 (14:37):
Sometimes ebody wants me.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Sometimes it's great to walk away on that kind of level,
like just to be on yet another team, here's the
last one.

Speaker 3 (14:45):
I'm gonna bring.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah, there are kids in this country who don't know
how great Vince Carter was.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
Okay, look at his stats.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
He played so long, all of his stats numbers have dropped,
and now a lot of people won't even consider go
like he was.

Speaker 3 (15:01):
Okay, he had a eight year run, He had two.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Separate careers, He had a career as a bench player
that nobody knows about, and he was a really star player.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
He's stuck around too long. I think that's where you
could get hurt if you stick around.

Speaker 5 (15:14):
Too I just think there's such a small minority of
guys who do this, like who we can even have
these conversations about that is worth it.

Speaker 10 (15:21):
Man.

Speaker 5 (15:21):
If I get to make hey I make two three
four million dollars, which again in money really at issue
at that point for some of these guys, and I
get to do the thing I love, I just think
why not?

Speaker 3 (15:31):
Why not? And the most important, I think their families
know what it is.

Speaker 5 (15:34):
You. Savannah knows Lebron, Russell Westby the wife for years,
Chris probably the White for a year.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
They kind of know. The fans all in. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (15:41):
Tom Brady's wife knew too, and she bound he went
to fifty two years old and she told him, hey, brouh,
this is it. No why but she knew they were
all living off for tom Brady and TV twelve and
all that.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
He told him. She gave baby, He gave the aultimatum. Bro,
I'm just telling you.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven

a problem with guys like Russell Westbrook just hanging on
and becoming punchlines late in their careers. We'll continue that

very stric handsome guy, great player. Anytime I see him

a guy you want to push forward and say, here's
one of our stars of the game. And then we
mentioned maybe it's a great Northwest where but he absolutely

(17:50):

one hundred percent disagree with you, man. There's so many
guys now that are figuring out how to play later
into their careers. Look at Tom Brady for example, Look
at Brett farre You know, all these guys have figured
out ways to play later into their career. Even then
it's not gonna hurt Russell Westbrooks does. Look what Russell

(19:01):
Westbrook was when he started. You know, he was all
about him. It was all about him.

Speaker 3 (19:06):
Look at how he's playing in Sacramento. What does that
do for you? Stony? Though, Guys Sacramento.

Speaker 12 (19:13):
Maybe I'm that second guy and how he's accepted all
those roles, you know, pretty much being diminished as he's
gotten older, as he's moved on to all these different teams.

Speaker 3 (19:24):
All right, no problem, no problem, thank you.

Speaker 12 (19:30):
You know, if he still can play the game, then
play the game, and then one day he'll figure out,

you be little two to three million dollars way too easily.

Speaker 3 (20:29):
Secondly, you mean million and a half has attack very product.

Speaker 5 (20:32):
He was productive with the Clippers, right, we were all, wow,
look he readbound for later.

Speaker 3 (20:35):
He was productive with the Nuggets.

Speaker 8 (20:37):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
So he still feels like he has something to prove it.
You go to another team that that had no shot.

Speaker 8 (20:42):
But Kevin which did not understand these So the longer
you place you get only hurt yourself. Yes, look at
Russell Wilson, Look at Lebron. He's ever going to be
the goat.

Speaker 3 (20:53):
No, this is why I agree with the Russell Wilson.
Russell Westburg is certified first ballot. We know that. But Bron.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
You can look at Lebron and go He played twenty
five years, only won four championships.

Speaker 3 (21:03):
Wow.

Speaker 8 (21:03):
But people are looking at Russell Wilson different now because
they don't even remember half of it.

Speaker 7 (21:07):
If you don't remember, he.

Speaker 5 (21:08):
Russell Wilson wasn't cemented. I get your point. I said
he's hurt himself and that he played himself out the
Hall of Fame. He wasn't cemented. Russell cemented.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Terry in Texas, you're on the yard couple of Fox
Sports Radio. What's up Terry? Terry all right, going once,
going twice. I guess he's not there. Uh, Tyler in Philadelphia,
you're on they couple of Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
What's up Tyler?

Speaker 7 (21:34):
Rob, Kevin, how y'all doing?

Speaker 3 (21:36):
What's up?

Speaker 4 (21:36):
Glad?

Speaker 3 (21:36):
How are you good?

Speaker 8 (21:38):
Good?

Speaker 3 (21:39):
Long time, second time, appreciate you.

Speaker 7 (21:42):
Yeah, yeah, so Rob, I mean I kind of I
think it depends on, you know, which is what the
type of player that we're talking about, as far as
if they sticking around, like you know, for somebody like
Russ and the Kings, I don't know why they would
pick him up. But you know, like one call has
said about Tom Brady, it's like, you know, he went

(22:02):
out on top and then you know, we keeping an
honest robe. I mean, you, my man. But Aaron Rodgers
has been around, and he hasn't won a Super Bowl
in almost two decades, and so it's all right, now.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
You're being ridiculous. He hadn't even played two decades. Okay, So.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
Okay, okay, But here's here's the point. Two decades would
be thirty. We're at twenty five. Okay, so you're a
little bit long. Here's the difference. Aaron Rodgers is a
Hall of Famer first ballot, all that, and he's on
a team that feels like they can maybe try to
make a championship run. Russ who has never won, okay,

(22:42):
never won. If you're gonna stick around, at least be
on a team where maybe I could get a ring
like what was his name.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
With the Miami Heat, the guard?

Speaker 1 (22:53):
Oh my god, Gary Payne, who got a ring on
the backside, do you remember? Like like, at least be
something like Peyton on a team where you have a
chance to at least get a ring on the way.
Cal Malone came to the Lakers with the idea that
maybe I might have played all these years in Utah,
maybe I could finally get a ring, be a part
of a championship team. I get that. I Like I

(23:15):
told Rob g when he went to the Jets, it
was a mistake. I'm dead serious, because that team.

Speaker 3 (23:19):
Wasn't winning the Super Bowl.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
You weren't winning a super Bowl, and if you were
gonna go play if the same thing. Tom Brady didn't
pick any team. He looked at Tampa bay Man. The
only thing that they needed was a quarterback who didn't
throw thirty interceptions. They had a great defense, they had
an offense. Don't forget go look, I mean Cherry picked

(23:42):
and that's all I'm saying, I don't understand why go
to Sacramento last?

Speaker 5 (23:47):
Quickly, russ mentality is this ain't my last season, So
I'm in Sacramento. Maybe I'll go to another team next year.
Russ is an amazing shape. Somebody gonna pick him up
next year. To Manti had a Globetrotters.

Speaker 5 (24:11):
Live Join now by our man Tyler Dragon USA today
national NFL reporter, The Tyler Dragon on X always going
to chop it up with you.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
What up, man?

Speaker 10 (24:21):
What's up? How you guys doing tonight?

Speaker 5 (24:23):
Doing well? Where you want to start? There's so much
we can start with. We could start with this one.
We just saw Caleb Williams the Bears. They get a
win there. Are you happy with what you're seeing from
his progression? Him and Ben Johnson Now they've won three
straight games? Are you still a lot of work to
be done? So?

Speaker 10 (24:44):
I know you're a Lions fan over there, but I
have me yes, I'm pleasantly surprised with what I've seen
from Caleb Williams and the Bears. Mean, he looks like
a totally different quarterback. He's more comfortable in the pos
it he's actually processing well and not playing playing improvisation

(25:05):
football and just going off script. He's reading coverages and
throwing the ball to the open man, staying within the offense.
And the Bears looked good offense, defensively and the special teams.
That was a huge win in Nation's Capital on Monday night,
especially on the heels of that huge collapse and that

(25:26):
Hailed Mary that took place last year, which was the
genesis of the Bears' collapse.

Speaker 3 (25:32):
It really was. That game really changed everything.

Speaker 5 (25:35):
And I remember that because if they would have won
that game, there would have been like one game over
five hundred song. They just collapsed totally. Tyler after that,
where are you?

Speaker 3 (25:46):
Kelvin?

Speaker 1 (25:46):
Said Aaron Rodgers, and the Steelers would win not four games?
I think it was a four first.

Speaker 3 (25:55):
And all that.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
And they have four wins already going four fifth one
on on Thursday night. And he's played pretty well for them.
This is what they were looking for a quarterback. And
the last game he won sack once. I mean, they
did a nice job in protecting him so far, what
are you.

Speaker 10 (26:11):
Saying, Well, looking now, they're going to win the AFC
North and I don't see any reason why they won't.
They should beat the Bengals Thursday night. They's going to
have a tough They have a tough one against the
Packers the following week, then they play a couple of
teams with winning records. But I like what I've seen
from Aaron Rodgers. He's not the Aaron Rodgers of old,

(26:33):
not a three time MVP, not playing that four times.
But I mean the way he's orchestrating and leading the offense.
BK Metcalf is playing well for them, and as long
as he's a little bit above average that defense with TJ. Watten,
those boys should be enough. I mean, they've played well.
They're in the three game winning streak, and I expected

(26:55):
to be four and then to beat the Bengals tomorrow
night in Cincinnati.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
And we have.

Speaker 5 (27:00):
And I agree he's not the guy who could elude defenders,
and he was and his hey.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
Day hit the ball out quick, very wisely.

Speaker 5 (27:07):
But he also Tyler had a couple throws that were uh,
you know, classic Aaron Rodgers like on the money about
the accuracy.

Speaker 3 (27:15):
I just do it. Yeah he did.

Speaker 10 (27:17):
He is still there. The only thing that I've seen
from Aaron Rodgers that I would say, okay, yeah, that's
the forty one year old quarterback is when he tries
to move within the pocket or scramble.

Speaker 3 (27:28):
I mean, he.

Speaker 10 (27:29):
Cannot run anymore. All three of us can probably beat
him in the race, but he is still He still
has one of the strongest arms in the NFL, despite
the age.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
If I named two coaches, which one should be fired,
John Harball or Aaron Glenn because I'm fa them, But
if you had to pick one.

Speaker 10 (27:47):
Who would you by, I would say Aaron Glenn because
John Harball's won in Super Bowl, his resume as good
as any active coach in the National Football League.

Speaker 5 (27:58):
Yeah, but they've they're disappointing a year after year. But
go ahead, I want to.

Speaker 10 (28:01):
Hear Aron, they're disappointing. But I do have to point
to Zach Orr, their defensive coordinator, that since he's been
hired their defensive coordinator, their defense hasn't really been able
to stop anybody. Yes, they went to the playoffs last year,
but they had a terrible pass defense. This year, their
defense is even worse. Despite name players in that team,

(28:22):
but injuries has certainly played a factor. They've had multiple
players injured on both sides on the football. Wokland Smith,
Lamar Jackson come to mind most notably. So I would
say it would have to be Aaron Glenn unfortunately, because
the Jets are the only winless team in the National
Football League and.

Speaker 3 (28:42):
They don't look good at all? Do they at all?

Speaker 10 (28:45):
All?

Speaker 6 (28:45):
At all?

Speaker 5 (28:45):
It looked like when it's gonna be hard to get Hey,
Tyler Dragon, our guests, let me ask you this one
of coats. I'm looking at the schedule right now. They're
sitting here looking really good this season. Got a couple
of like Daniel Jones could be an MVP candidate. You
got Jonathan Taylor offensive Player of the Year candidate. Look
at the schedule like they haven't really beat anybody. There's
a big test coming up this week as they're going
to be in here in LA taking on the Charges.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
What are you making this Coast team? Right guy? Right now?
You buying them? You're believing in them.

Speaker 4 (29:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (29:10):
I'll actually be at this game this weekend when they
play the Chargers, and I am buying them because I
was at the game when they played the Rams and
played them pretty well. Uh you know, yes, they have
had beaten inferior teams, accept the exception of the Broncos.
This is going to be a big test against the
La Chargers. But you have to give Daniel Jones credit.

(29:32):
He looks like an entirely new quarterback, playing up more,
buying more confidence and what well. You definitely have to
buy Jonathan Taylor.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
He's leading the league. I got Jonathan Taylor, okay, But
Daniel Jones.

Speaker 10 (29:45):
You see him a running back that's an Offensive Player
of the Year candidate in the backfield. That makes your
life so much easier as a quarterback. Daniel Jones just
doesn't have to mess things up and throw two three
turnovers the game. As long as you hand the ball
off to him and throw the ball to the open man,
win necessary. The coach should be fine and that defense
is playing pretty well well.

Speaker 5 (30:05):
Last thing, we got about a minute Gino's Pizza out
in Las Vegas.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
Just I know that they won their last game, but
I just you know, Pete Carroll, I get it. You know,
sodium free bacon, a chest x way and DCAF coffee
for his pregame meets.

Speaker 3 (30:26):
You should have went home, Okay, Russell wes.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
Home Pete Carroll and then he brings his quarterback. I
mean the Raiders again. Rob G's not happy. He's the
biggest Raider fan, going what do you make of the Raiders?
And it's been disappointing to me so far.

Speaker 3 (30:40):
If you're a Raiders.

Speaker 10 (30:41):
Fan, I'm still laughing at your Gino pizza commas.

Speaker 3 (30:44):
That was hilarious.

Speaker 10 (30:45):
That's how your best joking. While overall, I mean even
before the season, when you look at the AFC West,
the Raiders were still going to be the worst team
in the division. You have three playoff teams from the
season ago. The Raiders, to me, they're still a couple
of years away. The good news is that they have
building blocks on offense and Brock Bowers and the ash

(31:07):
and Genty Bowers is hurt with a knee injury right now.
But the Raiders, they certainly need a quarterback. Gino Smith
is not the answer. He's more of a bridge quarterback.
I expect them to draft a quarterback high and next
year's draft. But yet they're a bottom tier team. I
expected them to be, so that's not really surprising to

(31:27):
me at all.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
He said he was a bridge quarterback. London Bridge is
falling down down. Don't act like he won the Brooklyn
Bridge for a few years. He had a little few
years where he was Brooklyn. All right, appreciate you Tyler.

Speaker 4 (31:39):
Of course.

Speaker 9 (31:39):
I have a good night you.

Speaker 3 (31:40):
Too, now, Tyler Dragon, give him a follow Tyler Dragons
because he lasts a good funny material on the way.
Now he understands you, gets it. I sit next to
you every day for hours, so I've heard them all.
You know. Todler's a mente at mine as well. Boy, Yeah,
who isn't? AMENTI? Who is not?

Speaker 5 (31:56):
Would be the better question at this point, one's got
to go. That's coming up next. Stick with you, boys.

Speaker 5 (33:02):
That is because for those of us who live in
southern California, unusually cold and wet the last.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
Couple of days. So this morning, Monzi, it was got
beautiful today.

Speaker 5 (33:12):
It was beautiful, but but you know what time I
get up in the morning, so it was still some rain.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
And little jumblem is not morning. It's still nice. I know.

Speaker 5 (33:19):
Basically I used to hang out at that time of
night back in the day. So get in the car.
Oh shoot, I had actually throw on a jacket the
last couple of days, and so it started to think
one of these winter slash fall attire editions have to
go flannel, puffer coat, is this really a topic? I mean,

(33:42):
sweater or a leather jacket. One of these has to go.
How about a five a pluthero jacket that can stay
that is considered a leather.

Speaker 3 (33:52):
Robb G, you meant real, robb G. You had a plum,
didn't you. Everybody had a pluther jacket. Clearly that's your first.
Of all, your eyes are clearly giving me your answer.

Speaker 5 (34:02):
Flannel, puffer coat, hoodie, sweater, leather jacket, the fall ones
gotta go edition your fall kind of you know, your
attire from when it's breezy and chili outside of here
in these streets.

A flannel. A flannel in southern California. Who whizz, it's
actually what they wear.

Speaker 3 (34:36):
A lot of people. Yeah, I know, I know, a flannel. Yeah,
I would itch all day in a flat. Well that's
not a good flannel. Yesterday it was just brown.

Speaker 1 (34:45):
It was brown. It wasn't flannel. It didn't have that material.
It was a nice show.

Speaker 3 (34:50):
Are you looking? I have an instant rewine right now.

Speaker 8 (34:52):
It was.

Speaker 3 (34:57):
I'm not a brown and cream, We're white. It was
a shirt.

It was running back, Eliza, run it back. I'm talking
about the flannel that's wooly and makes you itch. He

Speaker 2 (36:00):
I kind of always outdoors and yeah, I got.
