Speaker 1 (00:00):
From this it's called Spy Family, but it's anime. It's
not Spy Kids, Spy Family. The funny thing is that
she's a very cute, little pink haired anime character.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
And then she showed me what the rest of the
family looks like.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
The mom in this family looks like a character from
the Matrix, but she's wearing like a choker and then
like a Dominatrix outfit.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
And I was like, yeah, Mommy. I looked at it
and I was like, Eedie, I can't wear that. And
she said why not? And I said, well, the daddies
on the street are not gonna like that. Well, actually,
the daddy's on the.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Street aren't gonna like that, and that's why we can't
do that.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
And I said, if we get yeah, if we get separated,
that's gonna be a really big problem for the mommies
on the street too.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
That's not gonna be okay.

Speaker 4 (00:56):
Brandy Bellman and the DV Morning Show, I.

Speaker 5 (00:59):
Don't know, you're of lead into it. Go hot mom
the whole way. Go sec be that sexy mom. Take
all the glory away from your kids.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
On Halloween. Mom and Atrix, make it about you.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Make you're supposed to.

Speaker 3 (01:11):
That's right, Halloween's on a Friday. It's about us. Yeah,
it's different this year. Kids.

Speaker 6 (01:17):
Do you think mommy and get her clothes off?

Speaker 7 (01:19):
Now?

Speaker 5 (01:19):
Have you guys got any like Halloween party invitations for
that weekend?

Speaker 3 (01:23):
Because I'm wondering if people are gonna have Saturday.

Speaker 5 (01:25):
I know, Bill, you said the Halloween parties are kind
of few and far between in your world.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Yeah, yeah they are.

Speaker 8 (01:33):
I mean the girls are starting to get invited to
them now, which is another level of terrifying. It's one
thing to just not be invited yourself, but then your
kids start going to them, and then you're like, well,
this is a new circle of hell.

Speaker 5 (01:45):
I didn't know if it would be like parents and kids.
When it's on a Friday, someone might be you know
that sounds like a big suburban Hey we're gonna have
a fall festival in the backyard.

Speaker 3 (01:56):
There's Cauldon Sacks all over the neighborhood that are doing that.

Speaker 9 (01:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah, called to back and usually every year, like I
don't remember the last time we had one on you know,
like it was really a big party.

Speaker 5 (02:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
And so, but normally on the school nights even I
bring out a fire table, and you know, like try
to like make it a thing.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
You make it a thing.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
I want to make it a thing.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
I make a thing that's a meal.

Speaker 5 (02:21):
That's what will end up happening is that because it's
a Friday, people will just have cocktails out now and
they'll be a little more like lingering and socializing at
every candy stop.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
And uh, I always have a beer on Halloween. Right now,
I'm going to be dressed as Dominatrix with a beer.

Speaker 8 (02:36):
So I guess I was going to say parents are
drinking every Halloween, but I think they're actually going to
get hammered this one.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
Yeah, Friday Night. It's a good one.

Speaker 8 (02:44):
Because I love the I love the adults who sit
out at the top of their driveway with a cooler
or they have a cider, some kind of beverage to
offer the adults.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
I don't always indulge.

Speaker 8 (02:55):
But it's nice to know that I if I want
to pop, I can get a pop.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (03:00):
This year, I'm dressing as Aaron Rodgers and I'm handing
out ayahuasca to all the parents when they come back. Yeah,
I think it's going to be fun. And then there's
a Darkness Retreat in the backyard. If the kids want
to go in there and find some candy and.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
They can puke in the cauldron whenever.

Speaker 5 (03:17):
Well, there's just smelling salts. There's no candy. That's all
they get too.

Speaker 6 (03:20):
That's our too.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
And then they passway to DK and then that's also
that's great.

Speaker 5 (03:25):
Well it's the Steelers themed Halloween, and why not because
they're scaring the hell out of me right now.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
I mean that the kids are going to run wild
through your backyard. I think that is indeed what's going
to happen Sunday night.

Speaker 5 (03:36):
Let's hope the Packers don't run wild at Akerscher Stadium
the eight twenty kickoff, Rob King, Max Stark's Missy Matthews
will have that all for you.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
Of course, bedtime two in a row. We're getting hosed.

Speaker 5 (03:51):
It's not as bad as years past, but we do
have I think three of them in five weeks or
something like that. Not ideal, but we get a one
o'clock and I believe a four to twenty five against
the Bills, which is the day that's the Sunday after Thanksgiving.
I'm okay with that one being a four to twenty five.

(04:11):
People getting back into Town. Sure, that's fine.

Speaker 6 (04:15):
Is that Is there any chance that that game gets
bumped to the night game?

Speaker 3 (04:18):
One hundred?

Speaker 8 (04:19):
Yeah, if the Steelers take care of some of their business.
But this, this road ahead looks treacherous.

Speaker 3 (04:26):
It does.

Speaker 5 (04:26):
And it's interesting you say that because I was looking
at it yesterday. Say a guy where to have made
a wager at the beginning of the year where the
Steelers say have to win over eight and a half games.
It's just a hypothetical, and say that guy said, I
really like that bet. I'm gonna go over. So they
got to win nine games for that guy to win
his bet. Now, let's just say hypothetically that the betting

(04:48):
platform offered that guy an out right now where he
won a little bit of money, not a lot, hardly
any ten percent on his bet, but he could cash
out now walk away because he doesn't think the Steelers
are going to win five more games based on the
schedule ahead of them, five out of eleven, that's right.

Speaker 6 (05:08):
You think they're going to be sub five hundred for
this person, for this.

Speaker 5 (05:12):
Person, this person person who say no, I mean no,
because I have confidence in this team.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
Obviously the games.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
A woman named Sandy, Yes, that's right.

Speaker 5 (05:26):
So anyways, Sandy Foulman, Sandy is a worry ward about
the Steelers, and she looked at the schedule and she
was like, well that all of a sudden, that Indy
one doesn't look right. So you got Packers, not exactly
a layup Colts. Yikes, Chargers, you should be able to win. However,

(05:48):
that's a cross country game.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
That's dangerous, eight twenty at night. That's the other night game.
Then you get the Bengals again.

Speaker 5 (05:56):
Joe Burrow will not be back, and you got to
think Joe Flack will be by then.

Speaker 3 (06:00):
So let's say they win that one.

Speaker 8 (06:02):
Okay, I hope he I hope Joe Flacco gets hurt
and somehow we have to just face Joe Burrow because
Joe Flacco is not defensible.

Speaker 5 (06:11):
I agree with you that honestly one of the best
games he's ever had, not even just statistically, like, I
could not believe how pinpoint accurate he was that entire game.

Speaker 8 (06:21):
Didn't miss so didn't miss on the inside throws, he
didn't miss they dropped the balls.

Speaker 5 (06:26):
So let's say they beat that Bengals the second time. Okay,
So that's the Chargers in the Bengals. That's two. Still
need three more. Then you got the Bears at home
in Chicago. Should win that one.

Speaker 8 (06:39):
Should Flashes, though they're not as slappy as I thought
they would be at the beginning of the season.

Speaker 5 (06:44):
He's turned them around. Ben Johnson, I think he's gonna
be a good coach. Then you get the Bills, Ravens
with Lamar Back.

Speaker 3 (06:53):
Dolphins.

Speaker 6 (06:54):
Don't know what to make of them.

Speaker 5 (06:55):
Dolphins. Okay, okay, there's your fourth win. That's a driverless car.
At that point, there's your four There is no coach,
so then you and no quarterback. Yes, no pants either
for the coach that does not wear pants. So then
you and then you have the Lions, the Browns, and
the Ravens to finish things out.

Speaker 6 (07:12):
Oh god, the Lions.

Speaker 8 (07:14):
But again, you know, like Mike likes to say, the
league reshuffles every week. I mean, the good teams tend
to rise to the top, and by the end of
the season.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
We saw what happened last year.

Speaker 8 (07:25):
All of the good teams looked real good against the Steelers,
and the Steelers, who we thought were a good team,
not so much.

Speaker 5 (07:34):
Not so much is kind of what I'm wondering about.
The defense right now, not so much. Little worried that
Sligh is.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
Done.

Speaker 5 (07:45):
So I'm a little worried that Jalen is not elite,
He's just good. And I'm worried that Joey Porter Junior
is actively getting worse. These are the worries I had
over the weekend, as I sat since Thursday night mulling
over the fate of this team, whose identity I under
Mike Tomlin, I can never really put my finger on
at any point in the season until about the last month,

(08:08):
and they are liking.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
What I'm seeing on offense for the most part. How
could you not?

Speaker 5 (08:12):
I mean, not a great defense that they played against,
but no, they threw points, threw up a lot of points,
and they did what they had to do. There so
no reason to be down on the defense, even with
al Calvin Austin in there right which they'll be getting
him back for Sunday night.

Speaker 3 (08:27):
But defensively, man, I mean, offense looks pretty good. Defense.

Speaker 8 (08:33):
I don't know what it is worried about the run
defense because it looked like a big problem the first
two games, the second like little chunk of the season.

Speaker 6 (08:44):
The third three games we look like we got it
figured out.

Speaker 8 (08:48):
But did we I mean, we were opportunistic against the
Patriots and they had to go away from the run
because that guy couldn't stop putting it on the carpet.
Then you go over to Dublin and Wentz's throwing the ball.
He's got two top tier receivers, so they're not necessarily
a power run team. And then the Browns just brownsed it.
They didn't run with Judkins. They dropped back a rookie

(09:10):
quarterback fifty eight times. So I don't know that the
problem that we thought was solved when Derek Harmon came
in is really solved.

Speaker 5 (09:18):
They tried to run with Judkins and then they quit,
which is not trying to run because you have to
keep pounded in these games. That's exactly what the Steelers
had to do in that game. And you know Warren didn't,
you know, tear off any big runs there or gain
well until the second half. Really is where they wore
down the Bengals defense. Stefanski and company bailed on that one.

(09:40):
But you know, once you get behind, you get behind it.
Sometimes you know you got to you're a hurry up mode.
But I don't know what to think about the Steelers.
I have no idea. It's five days after the game
on Thursday, and I'm still I don't know. I don't
know what to make of them. They are always an
enigma to me. Mike Tomlins. Teams never have an identity
where I go, well, we do this well.

Speaker 8 (10:00):
Their ability towards that didn't you like with the run
game and the you know, the seventy four is an
eligible receiver. The tight end game, like, I mean, obviously
that was the the big coming out party for the
tight ends on this team. Every tight end on the
team had a touchdown.

Speaker 5 (10:16):
Yeah, I mean, I think that you have to continue
in Arthur Smith's done a pretty good job of this
building out of that. You can't just keep throwing out
that you know, seventy four every single time and be like, oh,
they're not going to know how to defend this, and
you know eventually they're going to You're going to have
to have more. You know, Swiss army knives come out
in that formation, and they showed that at the beginning

(10:40):
of the game against the Browns with the shot to
Mount Washington. But I guess when you look around at
Justin Fields and what Russell Wilson have been unable to
do on other teams. See, maybe you do give a
little credit to Arthur Smith and what he could do
with Ryan Tannehill that nobody else could do in Tennessee,
and what he could salvage out of Russ and bring

(11:01):
out of Justin. I wouldn't be super quick to say
Justin Fields is finished in the NFL. I think he's
damn near close. I don't think he has as much
potential as I thought Baker had when Baker even went
to Carolina and was getting nothing done. Justin Fields is
really on his last chance. And I don't it's not
gonna happen in New York, and he's got to find

(11:22):
a quarterback whisper. I don't know who that's gonna be.
But Mike Tomlin. What scares me about Mike Tomlin is
he's always the guy that thinks. Mike Tomlin is a
guy who when the soap dispenser stops there's nothing in there,
he's like, obviously, there's plenty of soap in there, and
then he puts water inside it, and then he shakes

(11:43):
up the water right, and he's like, see, he's probably
good soap. And it's like wellt'sle's deluded a little bit,
but yeah, I guess that'll do. And then that runs
out and he's like, I just plenty of soap, and
he's like, there's not that much soap in there. I
can see it's not really not coach a whole lot
of soap. And then he puts more water in the
soap dispenser and now you just got water.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
He's like, but it's coming out of soap bottle. It's like,
but that's not soap.

Speaker 8 (12:05):
And then he brings the old soap out from underneath
the sink and you're like, no, that soap is old.
It hasn't been soap for a while.

Speaker 5 (12:12):
That's what I mean. That's the analogy I'm making, is
that he.

Speaker 10 (12:15):
Squeezes every little bit out of all of these older
guys who once were a full bottle of soap.

Speaker 5 (12:24):
Yeah, and now they're just husks of what used to
have hand soap.

Speaker 2 (12:31):
Does it still kill the germs.

Speaker 5 (12:33):
Soap not on third down?

Speaker 3 (12:36):
No, can't kill the germs on third down. So that's
the problem in my book.

Speaker 8 (12:41):
And there's too much splash back.

Speaker 6 (12:46):
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (12:46):
I mean, I would say that this would just be
like a trend for veteran coaches. We saw it with
with Mike Sullivan, like you just develop this this dependency
or this trust for the veteran players, guys that have
been there and done that, because you know that you're
getting towards the latter stages of your career and you
don't want to throw an unknown out there and potentially

(13:08):
lose it all. But then I look at somebody like
Sean Payton and what he's doing out in Denver with
bow Nicks, and I'm like, everybody thought he was a moron.

Speaker 6 (13:16):
He ditched Russ.

Speaker 8 (13:17):
They paid all that dead cap money to Russ or
that you know, they they paid Russ to not play
football for them, chose their guy.

Speaker 6 (13:25):
It looked idiotic.

Speaker 8 (13:27):
For three four games in that season they caught fire,
and then this year they're they're battling.

Speaker 6 (13:33):
They look like one of the sleeper teams in the AFC.

Speaker 5 (13:36):
That Sunday game was the fourth quarter against the Giants,
was something to be hold.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
Well.

Speaker 5 (13:42):
Michael and I had a nice rollercoaster ride on Sunday
playing the playing the games, and that was one of them.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
That was an absolute barn burner.

Speaker 8 (13:50):
And oh, if you were live betting that one if
you bet that in the second half, like, there's no
way that the Giants could lose this one.

Speaker 5 (13:56):
Right, right, But I agree with you on Peyton. Everybody
was going after him. He did get lucky in getting
his guy. If you don't, you don't get bone into.

Speaker 8 (14:08):
The guy, right kind of travel in New England, I mean,
he couldn't find his guy in Tennessee.

Speaker 6 (14:15):
Fired. That team looks like it's a mess. They choose their.

Speaker 8 (14:18):
Quarterback, the quarterback is struggling. They just fire their coach
in the middle of the rookie season of a potential
franchise quarterback. So I'm not saying it's easy, because it isn't.

Speaker 5 (14:29):
No, but honestly, that might be the blueprint. Like when
you invest in cam Ward as the number one overall
and you're not getting any like progress from him and
the guy that's guiding him had three wins the season before,
it's time to just cut bait right there and find

(14:50):
somebody who knows what they're doing, because you you don't
have time anymore. Although I'm starting to wonder if you're
not better served in the NFL these days then by
finding the people that everybody's giving up on finding a
Baker Mayfield or the Sam Darnolds because at Seattle, yeah,
they look like genius. These are the guys who end
up taking team. It's so much of it is experience

(15:14):
and relationships get damaged with teams over time, so they
draft somebody like do you think it's inconceivable that cam
Ward comes out at number one overall?

Speaker 3 (15:23):
Last year?

Speaker 5 (15:24):
Play six years or five years with the Titans, and
at the end of it they go, you know what,
it's just I think everybody needs a change of pace here.
It's just not working. And then he goes to another
team and then he's really good.

Speaker 3 (15:36):
I don't think he's gonna get that long.

Speaker 8 (15:38):
I mean, they just they just drafted the kid who
puts mayonnaise in his coffee, like a couple of years ago,
year before, you know, the year before. So I mean,
and we saw the je difference gym several times. Well,
that's the turnover in these organizations. The pressure to win
right away is obviously crushing these quarterbacks. Like, unless you're

(16:00):
a Jaden Daniels or a bon Knicks or somebody who
is an elite passer like Justin Herbert or something, you're
not gonna get put into a situation on a crappy
team with a lot of turnover at the top and succeed.
And so these guys are getting trashed and I don't
know if they're trash or if it's their circumstance. It's

(16:21):
more pressure than anybody's ever been under Justin Fields.

Speaker 3 (16:24):
That takes us back to Justin Fields.

Speaker 5 (16:26):
Yeah, because I can't believe he's as bad as he
looks in New York, because he wasn't that bad here.

Speaker 3 (16:32):
I thought he was definitely.

Speaker 5 (16:35):
The last game he played, I think was the Raiders
win in Las Vegas. He did not look great in it,
missed a bunch of throws, but I think that they
were starting to figure out a way to make him
more comfortable. And you know, a proficient NFL quarterback. Now
he looks at anything, but he's lost. And I think

(16:57):
that coach has lost too, And that's a big part
of it. But he thought he was going to be
a great hire, you know, not just because of his
bona fides with Detroit, but because he had the history
of New York and he was a jet and this
makes sense. And then he first of all, you got
off on the wrong foot with the press and in
New York. That is just throwing gasoline on a fire.

(17:17):
You're walking into a fire in New York if you
are poking the bear in progress upon arrival. If you're
poking the bear, it's just not gonna be easy for you.

Speaker 3 (17:27):
And it never was. And he's a mess that he
might not lasting here.

Speaker 8 (17:31):
I mean, I think about Miami too, Like even if
you think you haven't figured out, maybe you don't remember
when Mike or Mike Daniels or what's his name name,
McDaniel when he first got the job, that offense was elite.
That was the best offense in the league. They were
putting up sixty burgers on people, and now they look

(17:51):
like they.

Speaker 6 (17:51):
Can't do anything to it through horrible interceptions in that game.

Speaker 5 (17:55):
And got told, well, I think Tua is done, and
I think it's I think it's largely due to the concussions.
I honestly think his brain is not in NFL shape
and I think he can't process, and I think he's
making bad decisions and that's all there is too. I
think it's that simple, because he has gotten demonstrably worse,
Like he started off with a whole lot of potential

(18:19):
and you could see that there was some you know,
rust around the edge of this type stuff.

Speaker 3 (18:22):
But you thought McDaniel was going to be able to
unlock his potential, especially.

Speaker 5 (18:28):
The way they got got along because Brian Flores was
so hard on him and then McDaniel goes down there
and I wanted him to do well, man, I really did.
He would have been such a fun person to roof
for it.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
We talked about that yesterday, like he had so much
potential because you were like, wow, new guard, like there.

Speaker 6 (18:43):
Was outside the box, thinking.

Speaker 1 (18:45):
Exactly and now you realize, no, he just wakes and
bakes and he's an idiot.

Speaker 5 (18:51):
He turns out he's just a stoner. Is really good
at devising the place exactly. What guys, what if we
did this? Would this be cool?

Speaker 3 (18:57):
It's like, yeah, it actually would.

Speaker 5 (18:58):
But he's not a leader of men. You gotta go
into a locker room and talk to people, and he's
like stoned looking down on the ground. Which is a
drag because to the earlier point, it would have been
fun to see people be mad at him being a
good coach.

Speaker 6 (19:11):
Can't be a coach with your ankles exposed, I just can't.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
Mike's got a full sports support for you when we
come back.

Speaker 4 (19:17):
It's the show where you picked the tunes.

Speaker 6 (19:20):
St Lloyd.

Speaker 4 (19:20):
We all want to hear. Let us know what you
want to hear on our socials phone or the talkback
button on the iHeartRadio AM three days at noon. I'm
going to need the whole thing. It's the all Request
DVE Electric Lunch.

Speaker 5 (19:34):
It's Randy from the DVE Morning Show. You know, it's
more important than ever before. Mike, Mike pursuita that such
you do you count the stupid stuff?

Speaker 9 (19:45):
Like?

Speaker 3 (19:46):
It was just a funny.

Speaker 11 (19:48):
Bill and I were talking about quarterbacks as we do
during the break.

Speaker 3 (19:51):
Yeah, sports is ub brother.

Speaker 11 (19:52):
We talk about Bridgeville appliance and he said he sees
Jordan Love doing this stuff, And I said, do you
count the stupid stuff? And just of because Jordan Love
does both. Yeah, well yeah, yeah, and he.

Speaker 8 (20:03):
Did both a couple of years ago here at this
stadium that kind of got us out of the game
with the.

Speaker 11 (20:09):
W Yeah, and Joe Flacco didn't and look what happens.

Speaker 8 (20:15):
So got to make the quarterback do some stupid stuff. Yeah,
how do you do that? I mean with the old guy,
you'd think you'd pressure him right, send the house.

Speaker 11 (20:25):
Yeah, Well, when it's coming out pick excuse me, when
it's coming out quick, it's harder to do that. But
you got to make them pay somehow. You got to
maybe be in position near enough to a receiver after
he cat to maybe knock the ball out or generate
turnovers how you can.

Speaker 3 (20:40):
But you know, the lake does reshuffle every week.

Speaker 11 (20:46):
And from the Steelers perspective, I went down to the
locker room session yesterday. They are hoping that the Thursday
night defensive performance is an outlier. They just picked a
bad night to have a bad night. They allowed the
worst rushing team in the league to run, and that
set the table for the pass yep. If they're not
gonna be any better than that against the run, then

(21:08):
it's gonna be a long year.

Speaker 3 (21:09):
Just nothing else is going to matter.

Speaker 11 (21:11):
Yes, Bill, to your point about Cleveland, they made Cleveland
stop running, and that one way you can do that
is put them behind. Steel's had a chance to knock
the Bengals out early. Maybe their best run defense will
be scoring enough points that the other team doesn't want
to run anymore.

Speaker 3 (21:29):
Just a little food for thought.

Speaker 8 (21:31):
I still think if you're the Browns, you have to
know your identity. You're not throwing the ball fifty times
in beating teams. The only way you're winning is running
the ball.

Speaker 11 (21:41):
Somebody tells Sefanski because they've been trying to tell them
that in Cleveland.

Speaker 6 (21:44):
For the entire year, run the ball, Kevin, that teen's
getting fired. I mean fifty shirts.

Speaker 3 (21:50):
And you saw what Judkins did Sunday, Yay went off.

Speaker 8 (21:54):
The only time they've looked good this year has been
when they run the ball.

Speaker 5 (21:59):
He's getting fired. I think he's doing it on purpose.
He's like, oh no, did I do that? Oh I
get fired?

Speaker 6 (22:06):
Oh well, it.

Speaker 5 (22:08):
Was fun to you about you on phones ringing hang on, yeah, exactly,
Get hired immediately, Miami.

Speaker 3 (22:15):
Yeah, I'll be right there.

Speaker 11 (22:17):
Steeler's, you know, a little emotionally scarred after that Thursday
night disaster in Cincinnati. But if they're looking for something
to rally around, well, hosting the Green Bay Packers Sunday
night at Akrosser Stadium qualifies as such, given Aaron Rodgers
eighteen year history.

Speaker 6 (22:35):
With the Packers.

Speaker 11 (22:36):
Just don't tell any of that to defensive captain Cam Heyward,
because he is looking for seeking interested in no such
external emotional motivation.

Speaker 6 (22:47):
No, no, different.

Speaker 7 (22:49):
You know, obviously you want to win for Aaron, but
we want to play better football, and you know, we
gotta get to stay.

Speaker 9 (22:55):
Some of around.

Speaker 11 (22:57):
Yeah, he's interested in stopping the run and not looking
slappy like they did on defense all night. And who
cares who your quarterback used to play for.

Speaker 3 (23:06):
We want to win for Aaron.

Speaker 5 (23:07):
It's a long way from if you want to play
with the Pittsburgh Steelers, get your.

Speaker 11 (23:10):
Sear taking a different approach. Maybe that's because he's an
offensive guy, a little bit closer to Rogers. Under normal
circumstances is hey, we're just allowed.

Speaker 9 (23:22):
Uh.

Speaker 11 (23:22):
The Steelers don't want to beat anybody anywhere just to
get that taste out of their mouth. But Friarmuth knows
the circumstances will be anything but normal.

Speaker 6 (23:30):
On Sunday night, Aaron.

Speaker 11 (23:32):
Mentioned in his post game next games against my old team.
I don't know what he's going to say ah the week,
But do you guys, since this is a huge game for.

Speaker 12 (23:40):
Him, absolutely, I mean he was he was there the
face of the franchise for twenty plus or eighteen years,
whatever how many it was, and it's gonna be at
to him. It's gonna be allowed to everyone in his
locker room. He's been so much awesome?

Speaker 6 (23:51):
Is that entering with that? You know what, it's meaningful.
You don't want a little bus.

Speaker 12 (23:55):
A big it's a big game, and I think we're
all focused on that Sunday night. I mean, it's all
all the makings of a big game. Good time to
have one of those, Good time to.

Speaker 9 (24:04):
Have one of those. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (24:06):
I mean, it's not just his former team, it's the
quarterback that they moved on from him with.

Speaker 11 (24:12):
And he's playing well, resurrecting if he came here to
resurrect his image and go out with a bang instead
of a whimper, he's well on the way to doing that.

Speaker 9 (24:21):
One.

Speaker 5 (24:21):
Well, you just wonder if he went to a better
organization off the bat and you know, didn't suffer the injury,
which you know, I don't know if that was an
injury that was just waiting to happen or whatever. But
if he had two years, how good would he have
been right out of the bat, Because it took him
a while after that injury, in years that could have

(24:41):
ended his career of being a non packer to come around.
It was halfway through the second season before he really
started to dial it in a little longer. Yeah, and
now he's I think, fully back. But he lost it.

Speaker 9 (24:55):
You know.

Speaker 5 (24:55):
It's a lot of father time is undefeated, you know.
And that was a tough year and a half that
he lost there of production. How much does he still
have left in the tank? I mean, I think if
you're a Packer fan, you could look at it now
and be like, boy, if he's as good now, and
we would have kept him. I mean, I think he
said would have been as good. It's the same thing
Bill and I were talking about the last half hour, Mike.

(25:16):
I think organizations just get to a point where do
they go.

Speaker 6 (25:19):
You get to a point, go to the point.

Speaker 5 (25:21):
Enough's enough.

Speaker 11 (25:22):
Everyone needs a change, a change of GM's or coaches changed.
They want their guy. Yeah, it's a vicious cycle. Let's
just change it up because it's not working here anymore.
And it's not necessarily because of lack of ability. But
if the Steelers are going to get out of this
up and down malaise that they're in, he's going to
be the guy that leads them.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
Out of it.

Speaker 11 (25:41):
I think I would have more confidence that the offense
starts consistently approaching thirty points if not scoring points, then
I end that the defense is going to be historic
at this point. Wow, And Calvin Austin is hopeful he'll
play Sunday.

Speaker 8 (26:01):
I mean, I see other little guys around the league
that have the speed that he has making splash plays
every single Sunday when I'm watching the highlights. So it's
not like, and I've seen him do it consistently is
going to be the issue for him without getting hurt.

Speaker 5 (26:16):
Well, that's all the little guy's problem is. You see
those highlights, but how many do you see in week seventeen?

Speaker 3 (26:22):
Not a time.

Speaker 8 (26:23):
Well, it might be there returning in week seventeen from
an injury.

Speaker 11 (26:27):
Right now, that's week seventeen's problem. Yes, the current problem
is Green Bay and you got rought on in Cincinnati,
and you got thrown on to a historic degree and
it wasn't nearly good enough and you still almost won.
Lost in all this is that we still almost won somehow,
which is kind of how the NFL is too.

Speaker 9 (26:45):
Right.

Speaker 3 (26:46):
Most of these games are out of the fourth quarter
and coming.

Speaker 5 (26:50):
Down one stop defense, one stop just one Okay, I'm sorry,
I'm still pissed about that.

Speaker 8 (26:58):
And it's the best players, it's the guy, guy that
you got just for this occasion.

Speaker 5 (27:03):
The money guys, the guys were paying TJ Cam which
well Ramsey Jalen And that was the defense with Toasting injured.

Speaker 11 (27:14):
And that was the defense you saw against the Jets
and against New England. They were getting moved on all day,
but able to rise up at the very end when
you needed to get a stop and get a stop.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
And this time they were not able to rise up
and get a stop. Third and thirteen thirty and ten's
no problem for fly that last.

Speaker 11 (27:29):
You know, they hit that miracle play to Friarmouth and
the defense can't make it stick.

Speaker 3 (27:34):
Abbula of your news.

Speaker 1 (27:35):

Is now to the end of the month.

Speaker 5 (29:27):
It ac culminated yesterday on Monday with the induction of
the ten Stars honoring the Pittsburgh Legends who you can
now walk across in the Strip District terminal. The Hall
of or rather Walk of Honor, was commenced yesterday with

(29:48):
the induction ceremonies, and I thought this was a pretty
big coupe for them because this could have been something
that they came up with and everyone was like, yeah,
that's dumb, we don't care.

Speaker 6 (30:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (30:02):
I think the execution was key. You got to be
able to pull it off.

Speaker 8 (30:06):
You got to get people from like people's family members
and hopefully you know, one of the only surviving people
that's being you know, honored on the walk.

Speaker 5 (30:17):
Getting him to show up. Michael Keaton was a big, big,
deal yesterday. They've been working on this for ten years,
bringing this to Pittsburgh. The founders of this of the
Walk of Fame Board based this on one that's in Saint Louis,
and they thought that'd be great in Pittsburgh because, oh yeah,
what town loves to talk about the famous people from

(30:38):
their town more than Pittsburgh. I mean, so, Keaton is
there yesterday and this is hilarious. They bring him on
like a band, but it was like a.

Speaker 6 (30:50):
High school band.

Speaker 3 (30:51):
Well I actually think it was members of the symphony.
Like I could be wrong.

Speaker 5 (30:55):
I alwayst saw from a weird angle but on a video,
but they played the Batman theme when they walked him up.

Speaker 3 (31:17):
I like it. It's awesome.

Speaker 5 (31:23):
Keaton was like, uh, that was the first time I
was ever played on him with a tuba.

Speaker 13 (31:27):
You know, thank you very very much. This is ridiculously nice.
Uh it's another first actually, uh speaking first, I don't
think I've had words before, but I don't think I
was ever played on by a tuba.

Speaker 14 (31:47):
Before there got a boy. I don't think that's ever
happened before. He definitely loves the people of Pittsburgh.

Speaker 13 (31:55):
I want to thank you, honestly, from the bottom of
my heart for even showing.

Speaker 3 (31:59):
Up for this.

Speaker 13 (31:59):
This is just so nice of all these and it's
just true what everyone says about these people. It is
just in New York City and I was in a
car driving with a cab driver I think, or someone
was taking me somewhere, and he was referring. He said,
everyone I know from Pittsburgh loves being from Pittsburgh.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
And it's true, such a great place.

Speaker 13 (32:20):
And I love these I love places like this, but
I especially love this my hometown. I love these immigrant cities.

Speaker 3 (32:28):
We're all.

Speaker 13 (32:33):
The entire country is a country of immigrants, and my
own family looks like the un and I'm so proud
of it.

Speaker 5 (32:41):
And you know, his affinity for Pittsburgh has been well
documented through the years.

Speaker 13 (32:46):
There's nothing like being recognized by your hometown or because
it's the place that actually make you who you are.

Speaker 3 (32:55):
These places and to be honored here.

Speaker 13 (32:59):
And boy included among this inaugural group of honorees people
who have not just shaped Pittsburgh, but literally shaped the world.
This this is almost embarrassing, almost. He talked about when
he left Pittsburgh. You know, I left here, even though

(33:22):
you never really leave here. I left here with kind
of a rough a very rough idea, kind of a
rough draft of what I wanted to do.

Speaker 6 (33:38):
And what I wanted to be.

Speaker 13 (33:40):
And the thing is, you know, he leaves with so
many memories and so many experiences and so many characters
that I knew over the years that I've created characters
based upon those people. But as I said, you know,
this city, this, these experiences, they shape you. At least
they shaped who I am, and you kind of carry

(34:02):
it with you.

Speaker 3 (34:04):
I mean love that, I do.

Speaker 5 (34:06):
Love how much he through the years has shared his
celebrity with the city of Pittsburgh, knowing what it means
to everybody here. Billy Gardelle's really good at doing that too.
Billy'll be on with us, Yeah. Joe Manganello also great
at that. He lets Pittsburgh share in his celebrity. He
loves the time, loves coming back, doing stuff for Children's Hospital,

(34:27):
and just being a part of any event that he can.

Speaker 8 (34:30):
Going to the Steelers games, being a maniac fan. I mean,
he was at the fashion show. His dog was wrapped
in a terrible towel. But Michael Keaton this means something
to him.

Speaker 3 (34:39):
So this star. I hope.

Speaker 6 (34:44):
When you.

Speaker 5 (34:46):
Mostly kids.

Speaker 13 (34:48):
When you walk through here and they look down at
this star of mind and the star of all these people,
I hope they look up and they just wonder what
as possible.

Speaker 3 (35:02):
This means the world to me.

Speaker 5 (35:04):
I like that kind OF's like, I hope they realize
they don't have to stay here. You get the hell
out of here and make it famous now a kid.
He gave a shout out to the Rocks too, Thanks
for coming everybody.

Speaker 13 (35:16):
You can see some friends, my family whom I love,
and I'm more proud of them than even getting this.
And my brother Robert came all the way from Florida.
My brother Paul came all the way from California.

Speaker 3 (35:36):
George came from the Rocks. It's down the river. It's
like it was an.

Speaker 5 (35:42):
Effort took the clipper up. But that shows you how
much it meant to his family. His siblings came in
from all over the country.

Speaker 3 (35:53):
I mean, it's a really cool thing.

Speaker 6 (35:55):
Man.

Speaker 3 (35:55):
Hundreds of people were down there.

Speaker 6 (35:57):
They it looked like they closed the street.

Speaker 8 (36:00):
People that have pat like it was Clemente Carnegie.

Speaker 3 (36:04):
George Benson got in.

Speaker 5 (36:06):
He he was unable to attend due to health issues,
but he provided a video Nellie Bly, August Wilson, Clemente Jonas, Salk,
Fred Rogers, Carnegie, like Bill said, is mostly posthumous inductions.
But I think that that sets the table because you
have to get those people in.

Speaker 8 (36:25):
You know who's that's Nellie Bly is the woman who
is the new statue that they've added to the airport.
She's the woman standing next to Franco and George Washington.

Speaker 5 (36:37):
Why did I think she was an aviator? She's a journalist.
I think she did a ton of stuff.

Speaker 2 (36:42):
Yeah, I thought she was a journalist among other things.

Speaker 3 (36:45):
But oh yeah, she did both.

Speaker 5 (36:48):
She had a record breaking trip around the world apparently. Yeah,
seventy two days of Pittsburgh.

Speaker 6 (36:56):
That's not bad.

Speaker 5 (36:58):
How long it usually takes you to get to Chicago
Airport to Monroeville connected, Charlotte said, Nelly, I thought of
Nelly Briles, right, Yeah, pirates.

Speaker 3 (37:11):
Throw pitches into seventy one World Series.

Speaker 5 (37:13):
No, this is Nelly blind pretty good first year for
this and.

Speaker 8 (37:18):
Oh god, and to have seedback hosting it was the
perfect choice.

Speaker 5 (37:22):
He's the guy and he's got to get his own
star eventually. But that's oh yeah, so now without just
concentrating on Sports Stars. They had Clemente in there. You
gotta think frank O Harris gets one next year. Oh yeah, right,
for sure, Franco's Are they doing this every year? Yeah,
that's the point I believe.

Speaker 2 (37:39):
Okay, yeah, I think every year they want to add
ten ten.

Speaker 5 (37:43):
Franco definitely, Charles Groden maybe, I don't know, he's Pittsburgh
of something. Drum Yeah, neither. Dennis Miller wasn't either. Yeah,
I know, it's kind of a drag. I'll go and
say go as far to say Billy Gardell's yes, yes, indeed,

(38:08):
and he'll be live on the radio with us in
the nine o'clock hour.

Speaker 3 (38:11):
Abbey's got your News next.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
Okay, Now, something else happened in the Stream District yesterday,
and that was a lot of people were mistakenly toady Bill.

Speaker 5 (38:20):
We should do an adjacent walk of shame on the
other side of the terminal. It's like the guy that
pretended to be Brian Saint Pierre, you know what I mean,
Like just all kinds of.

Speaker 3 (38:36):
We'll do a walker shame.

Speaker 15 (38:38):
It's time for the Steelers Daily Report on d V,
brought to you by Calli and Pizza and Draft Holes.
Three Time World Pizza Champions and Steelers Pro Shop. Get
it direct from the team at shop dot Steelers dot com.

Speaker 6 (38:50):
Here's Tom Opperman.

Speaker 16 (38:51):
The Steelers will trying to bounce back from their loss
to Cincinnati last Thursday night by welcoming the Green Bay
Packers to town for Sunday Night football. One thing to
monitor for Steelers fans is the week forgres. This is
the status of wide receiver Calvin Austin, Third, who's been
sidelined for the past couple of games with a shoulder
injury suffered during the team's Week four triumph against the
Vikings in Dublin. Austin's absence has been felt in the
Steelers offense. Over the two games without Austin, Steelers wide

(39:14):
receivers not named DK Metcalf received just four total targets
from quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Austin has had seventeen targets over
the four games that he's played in this year, catching
ten of those for one hundred and thirty nine yards
in two touchdowns. After seeing the tight ends emerge in
the passing game last week, thanks in large part TOI
one hundred and eleven receiving yards and two touchdowns by
Pat Fryarmouth. Adding Austin back into the mix should only

(39:35):
enhance the Steelers passing attack against the Packers defense that
comes in allowing just twenty point eight points per game,
tenth fewiss in the NFL. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin
has set to address the media this afternoon for his
weekly press conference and will hopefully shed more light on
Calvin Austin.

Speaker 3 (39:49):
The third status on pump up from in with the
Steelers report.

Speaker 5 (40:34):
Because it's a Friday, people will just have cocktails out
now and they'll be a little more like lingering and
socializing at every candy stop.

Speaker 2 (40:42):
And I always have a beer on Halloween. Now I'm
going to be dressed as Dominatrix with a beer.

Speaker 8 (40:47):
So I guess I was going to say parents are
drinking every Halloween, but I think they're actually going to
get hammered this one.

Speaker 3 (40:53):
Yeah, Friday Night. It's a good one.

Speaker 8 (40:55):
Because I love the I love the adults who sit
out at the top of their driveway with a cooler.
They have a cider, some kind of beverage to offer
the adults.

Speaker 3 (41:05):
I don't always indulge.

Speaker 8 (41:06):
But it's nice to know that I if I want.

Speaker 6 (41:09):
To pop, I can get a pop.

Speaker 3 (41:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (41:11):
This year, I'm dressing as Aaron Rodgers and I'm handing
out ayahuasca to all the parents when they'll come back. Yeah,
I think it's gonna be fun. And then, uh, there's
a darkness retreat in the backyard if the kids want
to go in there and find some candy.

Speaker 2 (41:25):
And they can puke in the cauldron whenever, well.

Speaker 5 (41:28):
There's just smelling salts there's no candy. That's all they
get too.

Speaker 3 (41:31):
That's whar too.

Speaker 2 (41:31):
And then they passed away to DK and then that's awesome,
that's great.

Speaker 4 (41:35):
Brandy Bellman and the DV Morning.

Speaker 5 (41:38):
Always ripping the smelling salts on the field. He's always
got him like in his waistband or something like that.

Speaker 8 (41:44):
We were wasn't there some sort of legislation out there
in the league or some rule change where that was illegal?

Speaker 5 (41:50):
Well, they didn't pass determined that if you bring your
own it's fine, the league couldn't provide.

Speaker 2 (41:57):
Them, which seems even more weird.

Speaker 3 (42:00):
Year it's b yoss, that's right, it seems more dangerous.

Speaker 1 (42:04):
Yeah, it's like, if you bring something we can't check,
it's fine.

Speaker 9 (42:08):
Right.

Speaker 3 (42:08):
Why don't you have a company smelling salt?

Speaker 5 (42:10):
Lawrence Taylor's like I had my own smelling salts back
in Yeah, just chopping rails his knuckle before he went out.

Speaker 8 (42:20):
He didn't even know what the team's name was that
he was playing against. If I've seen any of those stories, he.

Speaker 5 (42:27):
Did, Uh, no pregame walkthroughs. He wouldn't study a game plan.
He and and sometimes when he was in the meetings
with Parcels and they were talking about, Like Belichick would
be saying what they're gonna do defensively, Lawrence Taylor would
be like, no, no, that's.

Speaker 3 (42:45):
Not what's going to happen.

Speaker 5 (42:46):
And he would just say what they're gonna do based
around what he wanted to do, and everyone would be.

Speaker 3 (42:51):
Like, Okay, yeah, let's know that sounds good there.

Speaker 5 (42:55):
Yeah, he's a monster. Let him rampage. Adam's got your news.
Now what's going on?

Speaker 1 (43:00):
Sour brought to you Bike Keystone Basement Systems, Wet Basement,
Keystone Basementsystems dot Com. Cloudiness today, couple of thundershowers later on,
and breezy.

Speaker 2 (43:10):
It is a high of sixty four today.

Speaker 18 (43:12):
All right.

Speaker 1 (43:13):
There was serious frustration for some drivers in the Strip
district when the city mistakenly puts signs on the wrong
street blocks warning.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
Drivers that their cars would be towed.

Speaker 1 (43:23):
The sign said that for the rest of the month,
cars parked between twenty second and twenty third will be
towed as the city creuse paint new bike lanes along Penn,
But yesterday cars were towed further up the street all
the way up to thirty first on Pen.

Speaker 3 (43:41):
Yeah, all the way to the bridge.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
You dang the lanes are being painted after a several
months long battle with small business owners.

Speaker 3 (43:48):
In city lot of cars. Those business owners are super pissed.

Speaker 5 (43:52):
They filed suit to get that to stop because they're like,
it's going to be one lane now and people won't
be able to make delivery. So if they need to
have delivery, is like trucks are going to stop on
Penn Avenue and just block traffic, and then what if
someone has a heart attack on the other side of that,
you have to get an emergency vehicle there, but you
can't because someone's getting a bread delivery.

Speaker 1 (44:11):
Yeah, it does sound like they had a hearing last
week in the city scaled it back. I don't know
how much they scaled it back to accommodate those concerns,
but they had some small win in that.

Speaker 2 (44:22):
Again, I don't know exactly what it was.

Speaker 5 (44:24):
I know our friends in the Pittsburgh winery were very concernable.
It's like that could just stop them from operating. Yeah, sure,
but I don't know. I hope we can all live together.
I like I like having bike access, and I also
like to have local businesses who spend their entire you know,
wealth on a business to be accommodated as much as possible.

Speaker 3 (44:46):
Have you have you ever been towed?

Speaker 7 (44:49):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (44:49):
Yeah, district really.

Speaker 6 (44:54):
Right there?

Speaker 9 (44:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (44:57):
Only good thing about it you can walk to the
the place where you need to pick it up.

Speaker 5 (45:02):
I've also paid the guy as he was putting it
up on his truck. Oh really yeah, And I've been
like it works, Uh, yeah, it depends who the.

Speaker 3 (45:13):
It depends in specific.

Speaker 5 (45:15):
Yeah, like dude, how about if I give you fifty
bucks right now and just drop it?

Speaker 6 (45:21):
But that was out of here.

Speaker 5 (45:25):
That was in the early two thousands. It's been a minute.
I'm avoided getting towed, but you never know.

Speaker 3 (45:30):
In the Strip District there's like places that.

Speaker 5 (45:32):
Are they have yellow lines and they're indiscernible now, and
it's like does that mean it's not there anymore? Not
that that gets you towed, but it's just like, can
I park here? Am I going to get a ticket?

Speaker 6 (45:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (45:43):
Do they care? Are they ticketing people?

Speaker 5 (45:45):
Don't they have bigger concerns in the Strip District then
where I park my forerunner?

Speaker 3 (45:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (45:51):
But if it says toe, I don't mess around in
the Strip District because I know that that's the easiest
place they don't have to go anywhere they just pull
out of the garage, hawk eyes on the whole way,
grab you in your toast.

Speaker 1 (46:01):
Where what lot are you guys talking about when you
say that, the where you actually get a.

Speaker 5 (46:06):
Toe if it's in the If I remember correctly, it's
in the like low thirties, down near the river.

Speaker 8 (46:15):
Okay, yeah, No, I've never been towed down there. I
have been towed with a Christmas tree on my car.
That was depressing. That was I felt like Clark. I
was like, this is sad. Yeah, what the hell? Double
park with a Christmas tree on top of your.

Speaker 5 (46:33):
Car could not paint a better image of the stress
of the holidays than your car getting toed.

Speaker 6 (46:40):
With Wow in Monroeville. That really, dude, Just pick me up.
We'll get some wings at Carls and then we'll figure
this whole thing out.

Speaker 2 (46:53):
What was the circumstance of getting towed.

Speaker 3 (46:54):
I don't even remember.

Speaker 8 (46:56):
I just remember being at Carls and waiting for a
buddy of mine to come pick me up up to
take me to the tow yard, and just being like,
I'm sorry, man, I'm.

Speaker 3 (47:03):
Embarrassed, Like.

Speaker 8 (47:06):
It's so stupid with a tree on your car, Like
I went out to run the errand to get the tree.

Speaker 6 (47:13):
I got the tree.

Speaker 3 (47:14):
Did you have presents in the car?

Speaker 9 (47:15):
No?

Speaker 8 (47:15):
All right, well, but I have had my car stolen
with Christmas presents in the backroom.

Speaker 3 (47:23):
Remember it was in front of my house. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (47:24):
And they didn't take the presence, which you know was insulting.

Speaker 2 (47:28):
He could have done better.

Speaker 3 (47:29):
Did they unwrap them.

Speaker 8 (47:30):
And then leave them? No, they didn't even unwrap them.
I'm like you, you're lost, guys. There was a brand
new Lola loopsie doll in there.

Speaker 3 (47:37):
You can't get crank from.

Speaker 2 (47:43):
I was towed in Texas, which sounds like a wass.

Speaker 3 (47:46):
It sounds like a sounds like a country album.

Speaker 6 (47:49):
Toned and.

Speaker 3 (47:52):
And bulldos and billings.

Speaker 1 (47:54):
It was at a wedding and I guess we were
inside at the wedding and like wherever I parked, you
had to like keep going.

Speaker 3 (48:01):
Out and paying and one of those things.

Speaker 1 (48:04):
And then went out and it was all, you know,
all gussied up and everything and went out the car
was gone, and then had to go to find the car.
The axis and they are not nice when you go.

Speaker 2 (48:19):
To pick up your car.

Speaker 3 (48:20):
Well, I don't think any of them are. They're all miserable.

Speaker 5 (48:23):
I got one over on the saw Mill saw Mill
Run Road one time.

Speaker 3 (48:28):
I got towed there also. I forgot about that one.

Speaker 8 (48:32):
And they're like, it's like the junk yard in Nothing
but Trouble, Like these are places that exist, but you
junk yard, you don't know exist.

Speaker 3 (48:43):
What has been here?

Speaker 5 (48:44):
You know where it is, Crane Avenue where you come
down under that, you know the trestle of death. Yeah,
it's like, don't worry, they'll yield on the other side.

Speaker 6 (48:53):
Please yield.

Speaker 5 (48:55):
As soon as you come. If you're coming down it's
right right or right on the left. I think they
have on both sides. But from then there, I say,
the junkyard from Nothing but Trouble, I just think all
junk yards are that.

Speaker 6 (49:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (49:07):
There there's an entire ecosystem going on there that we
don't know anything about.

Speaker 8 (49:12):
Yep, like maybe some twins that are missing, several strands
of DNA.

Speaker 3 (49:17):
That have been missing. Are you the romanos?

Speaker 1 (49:23):
Well, either way, it sounds like a spokesperson for the
City of Pittsburgh told Channel in their permit software it
printed for the wrong blocks, and everybody who had their
cars towed will have their vehicles returned at no charge.

Speaker 8 (49:41):
Did they closed the street yesterday for that ceremony because it.

Speaker 3 (49:45):
Was so packed?

Speaker 8 (49:48):
They were they were It looked didn't didn't it look
like they were just completely filled from they were from
sidewalk to sidewalk.

Speaker 6 (49:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (49:56):
I had a friend down there. She said it was
pretty crowded, hundreds of people. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (50:01):
Did she get to see the Mancini's bread.

Speaker 5 (50:03):
I don't know about that. I know the Batman b
the Batman bread. I know you guys talked about it yesterday.

Speaker 1 (50:08):
Yeah, look, valiant effort.

Speaker 3 (50:12):
I think he probably the effort loved it.

Speaker 5 (50:16):
But the way that they put is like, like what's
it called? Is it kala or kala bread? Like that's
what it looked like, was the chin of Batman. So
it looked like Batman had mumps wrong.

Speaker 19 (50:32):
Type two rya Betes, a goiter, a few goiters. But
but you know, the Dark Knight was rise right there.
I just think it's hilarious.

Speaker 6 (50:44):
He got play.

Speaker 5 (50:46):
He got played on like this and then had like
a Janki loaf of bread given to him. You know
what I mean, what he could have expected no more
Pittsburgh experience than that.

Speaker 3 (50:56):
I want you to tell all your friends about I'm
delicious Nickel.

Speaker 5 (51:04):
Look, I love Nancini, Like, oh yeah, that is to me.

Speaker 6 (51:09):
What was that bread thing? Two hundred pounds or something?

Speaker 2 (51:13):
Mused to be like two hundred pounds four.

Speaker 6 (51:14):
Feet by four feet. You don't realize it when you're
looking at it.

Speaker 3 (51:17):
That Batman thing was two hundred punds. Yeah, yeah, of bread.
What are the characters were on it?

Speaker 6 (51:22):
Just Batman and the Batman sign.

Speaker 3 (51:24):
It was the actual weight of Batman.

Speaker 5 (51:26):
Oh yeah, Michael Keaton's not two hundred pounds.

Speaker 8 (51:32):
They painted it. I don't know if it's edible, is it?
I mean we talked about it.

Speaker 5 (51:37):
Edible if you use bread as a canvas unless you
can make it edible, right, Yeah?

Speaker 1 (51:43):
Why they do like black and gold like little PLISTI
sometimes you can eat that.

Speaker 3 (51:48):
I'd start that thing though.

Speaker 5 (51:49):
I mean their pepperoni bread is the best in the world,
and I would eat any Mancini pepperoni bread.

Speaker 3 (51:53):
I don't care what they painted on it. Yeah, I'm
all over it.

Speaker 2 (51:57):
I trust them.

Speaker 6 (51:58):
And don't forget about Kelly Mansines toast.

Speaker 20 (52:03):
Word doinging covy orange juice freshly squeezed.

Speaker 5 (52:10):
Juice, our overnight guy for so many years, Jack molloy
used to do these Kellyo commercials and that's how he
would announce all of those things, and it actually would
sound delicious freshly squeezed orange juice.

Speaker 6 (52:26):
That place is still packed.

Speaker 5 (52:29):
Everything down there is packed all the time. On weekends
of a Steelers game, before getting going through the Strip District,
if the sun is out at all, forget it.

Speaker 3 (52:41):
Like I was kind of not thrilled with what went
on with the.

Speaker 5 (52:43):
Terminal because it to me, it's like, ah, this is
just gonna be like every other city cookie cutter, same
dumb stores that you can see everywhere else. The originality
which we were promised was going to be a part
of it, but it's undeniable what it's.

Speaker 3 (53:00):
Done for the vibrancy of the Strip district. It's a
little bit of both, you know, tourist attraction now, yeah, I.

Speaker 1 (53:07):
Mean every for as much as the character has remained
in certain parts of the Strip District, there's still going
to want you know, there's still going to be people
that want to do a cute, colorful walk and get
a picture on a big, over sized chair, get a
shake shack, and that's that's fine, a little something for everyone.

(53:27):
But I agree with you like, I was not pumped
to be like, oh a Sephora.

Speaker 2 (53:31):
Cool.

Speaker 8 (53:31):
Yeah, there's too many chains in the terminal for my liking.
Like there's the shake Shack, there's a Chipotle, there's a Starbucks.

Speaker 5 (53:37):
But if you spend a million dollars on a Brownstone
that is on Railroad Street or whatever that's called back
the Railroad Ave or whatever, you want to be able
to walk and get all of those things and make that.

Speaker 2 (53:49):
Part of the why you're they need a pharmacy.

Speaker 5 (53:52):
Yeah, but again, you know, there's so many different original
and local places to visit Strip that it hasn't completely
lost its character.

Speaker 9 (54:02):
No.

Speaker 8 (54:03):
What I love is when they take an old building
and put something new in it but keep some of
the structure, like the exposed brick and some of the
beams and all that kind of stuff. Like I don't
know if you guys have been to Highline down in
the south Side, it's this old group of factories. There
is a brewery there as well. I think it's Sly Fox,

(54:24):
but they've completely renovated the space inside and there's all
these new businesses in there. There's a gym, there's a
coffee shop. Right, there's a brewery and there's an outdoor
space and it's just like this collection of factories from
the early nineteen hundreds where now you got new businesses
and tech companies in there.

Speaker 5 (54:43):
The thing that kind of flummixes me at the moment
is the lack of I mean, Carson Street is a
work in progress right now, and it has always gone
up and down through the years, Like there's always been
ups and downs on Carson Street right downs. Right now,
it's feeling pretty bleak, and I hope that it bounces

(55:03):
back sooner than later.

Speaker 8 (55:05):
But is it in what regards like just like nuisance
barred or businesses or.

Speaker 5 (55:10):
Not blight like places are not open, Like there's not
a lot, there's not as many choices as there used
to be, is what it feels like, at least when
I'm driving down, Like I went down on a Friday
night at eight o'clock, which is on the earlier side
for sure, but it was like barren, you know, and

(55:32):
it's like this doesn't feel right. It's I don't I'm
I don't know. I might just be an old guy
who doesn't go there and it gets hopping later.

Speaker 8 (55:39):
Well, no, I think you're actually talking about the balance that.
It's it's really hard to strike if you're the south
Side or really any place in the city is you're
trying to obviously cater to a younger generation of bar hoppers,
but you can't make it so that older people don't
want to come to that area at all.

Speaker 3 (56:00):
And so now it.

Speaker 8 (56:00):
Seems like a lot of the older people are just like, nah,
just stay in my neighborhood I'll just go to my
neighborhood haunts.

Speaker 5 (56:06):
Well, the neighborhoods are, you know, coming up all over
town too. I mean, that's part of it. It's like
you don't have to go from Dormont to the south
Side when you have all the stuff that's in Dormont now,
you know. But the point I was trying to get
to was that the one area of town that I
just cannot believe is in a constant attraction is Station Square.

Speaker 6 (56:26):
And there were.

Speaker 5 (56:27):
Times when it was popping, popping, you know, they got tiny?

Speaker 6 (56:31):
Is it?

Speaker 3 (56:32):
Two Bolow Honey?

Speaker 5 (56:32):
Is that the name of the places down there?

Speaker 3 (56:34):
That's really good?

Speaker 5 (56:35):
But the Grand Concourse is an absolute gem, the Gandy Dancer,
those should be enough of a hub right there to
make that pop and kind of what they're doing at
the terminal. I kind of feel like in the early
mid two thousands they were doing down at the Station
Square area that had Bar Louis.

Speaker 6 (56:54):
Of Head Saloon.

Speaker 5 (56:55):
Yeah, all of those bars where it became a destination place,
and I just wonder what they can you in steak
out again. Well, after a while it just became a
place where Pittsburgh didn't go there.

Speaker 3 (57:05):
It was all people from out of town.

Speaker 5 (57:07):
Yeah, And I wonder if that is what inevitably leads
to like you know, uh, you know, eventually people from
Stubenville stopped coming every Friday and Saturday or Cleveland or
wherever else, you know, because the hotel was right there.

Speaker 3 (57:18):
And if you go into a show or a game,
go right across on the Clipper.

Speaker 6 (57:22):
Go to Joe's Crabshack, have a nice meal.

Speaker 5 (57:25):
You know, it's still banging in uh Station Square, Kiku,
what's qui play?

Speaker 3 (57:31):
Yep has been there thirty years. You know where the
funny bone used to be inside.

Speaker 6 (57:37):
Which side because the funny bone has been like three different.

Speaker 5 (57:39):
The first one all the way over, yeah, is right
back in that behind the all the.

Speaker 6 (57:44):
Way up by like where it was Crawford Grill, for
a minute. Yes, it was a nightclub. I'm blanket on
the nightclub name.

Speaker 3 (57:51):
I mean there was a lot of Chauncey's was there.

Speaker 6 (57:55):
No Chauncey's I thought was at the other end.

Speaker 5 (57:57):
Well no, Imo, Station Square Yang, Chauncey's was there, and
then on that and I don't remember it's on the
like we're the melting pot?

Speaker 3 (58:05):
Is the melting bos still there?

Speaker 6 (58:06):
I don't know?

Speaker 3 (58:07):
Closed?

Speaker 9 (58:08):
Right?

Speaker 3 (58:08):
Yeah, book a Beap is gone. Joe's Crabshack.

Speaker 6 (58:12):
I think that's gone.

Speaker 3 (58:13):
Hard rock gone, gone, gone, going going. Bar Louis only
on the north Shore now, I think.

Speaker 8 (58:20):
Yeah, because Bar Loui is no longer uh in the waterfront.

Speaker 5 (58:24):
I remember we used to always walk through the one
bar to get the Bar Louis and they'd be like, hey,
can we get We're not the kissed them off so.

Speaker 3 (58:32):
Bad all the time.

Speaker 1 (58:34):
But that's the thing I mean with the Station Square,
I mean that's been under like foreclosure.

Speaker 3 (58:40):
Basically.

Speaker 1 (58:41):
There's other companies that are looking to possibly purchase it.
There is like a Boston company that has been in
talks to buy it for a minute.

Speaker 5 (58:48):
I don't know if you guys saw when you were
at the Dormont Street Festival. But on right on Potomac
there's a house that has for their Halloween decoration. They
have gravestones in their yard of all the places in
Pittsburgh that have closed.

Speaker 3 (59:02):
So they have a million headstones. They have like Century
three mall and stuff like that.

Speaker 5 (59:08):
Like you could do that down in the in the
Station Square matrix.

Speaker 6 (59:13):
Yeah. Margarita Mama's the Organ's Bar and Grille.

Speaker 5 (59:18):
Yeah, absolutely, dude, Margarita Mama's hilarious.

Speaker 3 (59:23):
Margarito.

Speaker 5 (59:24):
What was the one with the uh with the mechanical bull.

Speaker 3 (59:28):
Oh, that was well.

Speaker 8 (59:29):
They had Rock Jungle, Rock Jungle, and then Rock Jungle.
They changed it to whatever that place was, Saddle Ridge
Battle Ridge, and it was just Rock Jungle with Hay.

Speaker 3 (59:40):
They brought in half Rock Jungle.

Speaker 5 (59:44):
I always thought they were trying to like pull a
lava lounge kind of vibe, like a tiki lounge.

Speaker 8 (59:51):
L No, because at the end of the day, like
the decor only went so far. It was like a
dollar tree decor. Yeah, and it was really just you're
drinking in a warehouse.

Speaker 3 (01:00:02):
That was gross. But when we were in our twenties,
who cares?

Speaker 8 (01:00:05):
Yeah, right, someplace used to be packed and Matrix had
like different music in every single room.

Speaker 3 (01:00:12):
Matrix was hilarious.

Speaker 8 (01:00:14):
Now that Matrix is Tequila Cowboy is kind of like
that in that it has its cavernous You don't realize
how big it is. There's back rooms that were hip
hop and it's like karaoke bar in the one room.

Speaker 5 (01:00:28):
Yeah, Jacob, where do the people your age go? Is
it just all Larryville, Bloomfield, all on that side of town?

Speaker 9 (01:00:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (01:00:35):
More so that Belvidere's sorry, Belvidere's.

Speaker 5 (01:00:39):
Not really I mean I know people that go there,
but that's a little younger.

Speaker 3 (01:00:44):
I know people that go there that that are my age.

Speaker 6 (01:00:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:00:47):
The problem with that place is that it's one of
like the three places in town that charges of cover.

Speaker 3 (01:00:52):
This isn't New York City, So I don't know that's hilarious. Well,
I don't think they're I think they're doing great business
there though, So no, I get that. It's just like,
don't think people want to pay a cover for all
the people to go.

Speaker 8 (01:01:03):
You know what's hilarious is that I think that that's
just a new generation, like they just decided like, hey,
we're not paying covers.

Speaker 3 (01:01:09):
We grew up paying covers everywhere. There's a cover everywhere
you went.

Speaker 5 (01:01:12):
Yeah, I was talking to a buddy outside of Trace
Brewing for the Dve Paul Luke chet Vincent contract and
we're just talking at the door, and people instinctually are
like pulling out their wallets and like money for us,
and we're.

Speaker 3 (01:01:26):
Like, no, dude, we're just having a like.

Speaker 5 (01:01:28):
But I I feel like I don't run into that
so often anymore because there was no or gone.

Speaker 8 (01:01:35):
But like, even in this south side it was District
nine for a second, it was something that house towards bar.

Speaker 3 (01:01:41):
No, that was the locker room. Locker room. Yeah place,
it's topside with that place.

Speaker 6 (01:01:47):
Tiny. It was that. That was the long and skinny bar.

Speaker 9 (01:01:50):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:01:50):
It was in the news quite a bit.

Speaker 5 (01:01:51):
Oh yeah, but your your age group never went to
the South Side, Jacob. You guys were never Southsiders or
that is that because you didn't go to college.

Speaker 3 (01:01:59):
We did. But now that we're in our thirties, yeah,
not so much. It's different. All right, Mike pursuita coming
in here thirty.

Speaker 6 (01:02:06):
That's the funniest.

Speaker 8 (01:02:07):
It's like he's not called my nephew, baby James, and
he's seven.

Speaker 3 (01:02:11):
Yeah, baby, Jacob Mike Pursuda.

Speaker 5 (01:02:16):
He's got tales of bars that once were on the
South Side where you go see Tony jan Flowan at
the Blue Note and which is now at Primanny's full
details on the Steelers getting ready for the Green Bay
Packers Sunday Night football and eight twenty kickoff here on DV.

Speaker 5 (01:02:56):
Steelers and the Packers Sunday night, Aaron Rodgers face off
against his old team.

Speaker 3 (01:03:02):
We'll be waiting all day for Sunday night. Jeez, I'm
waiting all a week. What's the NFL doing?

Speaker 5 (01:03:07):
By the way, from nine thirty am on Sunday morning
until one o'clock in the morning on Monday nights.

Speaker 3 (01:03:12):
Now, that's what we got going on to Monday nights.
Last night including a West Coast game. That's too much,
too much, that's a lot, that's not let us up.
And then it's like you finally catch your breath. It's
Thursday night. I went to bed at halftime in the
Seattle game, the second one. You stayed up that way. Yeah,
I had a little interesting Okay, already Sports.

Speaker 6 (01:03:31):
This are brought to you by Ridgual appliants.

Speaker 11 (01:03:33):
Cam Hayward was admittedly quote pissed off unquote in the
wake of Bengals thirty three, Steelers thirty one late Thursday night.
He was still somewhat salty yesterday while beginning to turn
the page toward Green Bay.

Speaker 6 (01:03:47):
I took the news early changes.

Speaker 7 (01:03:48):
I think, Okay, you know, the game happen Thursday, got
the weekend off, but uh, you know, I'm trying to
write the ship on on Sunday.

Speaker 11 (01:03:57):
You guys, I assume we're perceiving.

Speaker 3 (01:03:59):
That to be able off outlier defensive.

Speaker 7 (01:04:02):
Oh it's got to be. You know, nothing is guaranteed.
You got to go out there and make the proper adjustments.
We got to play with a better technique.

Speaker 11 (01:04:12):
Yeah, they gave him more rushing yards to the Bengals,
who are the worst, who were the worst.

Speaker 6 (01:04:17):
Rushing team in the NFL.

Speaker 11 (01:04:19):
I don't I haven't checked out how far that one
hundred and forty two yard effort on the ground vaulted
Cincinnati up the rushing rankings, but more yards in that
game than they had in the previous two games combined
against Minnesota and Cleveland.

Speaker 3 (01:04:31):
So it was out of recent character.

Speaker 11 (01:04:35):
The Steelers had been a team struggling to stop the
run early in the season. Felt like they got Derek
Harmon back, they got to Shawn Elliott back.

Speaker 3 (01:04:42):
They kind of got things figured out.

Speaker 11 (01:04:44):
It was trending in the right direction, and the bottom
fell out against the Bengals. You heard Heyward talk about
technique that starts up front, where the Steelers were reminded
that when you don't play the way you need to play,
even the worst rushing team in the NFL can have
a day or in this case, a night.

Speaker 7 (01:05:04):
To be good in this league, you have to you know,
get off blocks, but also maintain your gap. You know,
a couple times we can get a little thirsty. Uh
and when you know, you pay the price. But uh,
you know, communication has to be stressed from here on out,
you know, in practice, out of it, you know, to
prepare for you know, every situation. So it's a it's

(01:05:25):
a process that it just has to keep growing too thirsty.

Speaker 11 (01:05:28):
Interesting hearing him till you hear the tone of his
voice there, Right, he's just not happy and shouldn't because
I was a disaster in Cincinnati. But if we rewinded
back a year ago, if I had been talking to
Russell Wilson yesterday, he'd have been.

Speaker 3 (01:05:46):
We're fine, no problem, baby, We're gonna run. We got
a whole lot in front of us. Until still there
toxic positivity.

Speaker 6 (01:05:52):
I like this better.

Speaker 8 (01:05:54):
Doesn't mean it's gonna change anything, at least feel.

Speaker 5 (01:05:59):
Better, because it denotes awareness, Yes, you know what I mean.
Like the other one was like, dude, do you believe
what you're saying right now?

Speaker 3 (01:06:07):
Because I can't tell because he's stunk less.

Speaker 6 (01:06:09):
Yeah, you know right.

Speaker 8 (01:06:11):
This is in tune with my philosophy of a crying
baby on an airplane, Like, if you're the parent, you
gotta look upset about it.

Speaker 3 (01:06:18):
You gotta look real bothered by it, you know, so.

Speaker 8 (01:06:21):
That everybody around you can see you're not okay with
this crying baby either.

Speaker 11 (01:06:25):
You don't just tell people who are looking at you, fuddy.

Speaker 3 (01:06:27):
Hey, he's gonna grow up and have a great life.

Speaker 6 (01:06:29):
And the president.

Speaker 3 (01:06:31):
Guys don't worry about it.

Speaker 5 (01:06:33):
Or like a giant eagle and they're like flipping things
off the shelves instead of just merrily going about your
way a peer annoid.

Speaker 3 (01:06:39):
Yeah, yeah, show some interest. Yeah, that's a good point.

Speaker 11 (01:06:43):
Uh, the way Cam Hayward saw it, among others, the
Bengals success on the ground just set the table for
their unbelievable success through the air, and the Steelers contributed
mightily to the Bengels being able to run the ball
for a change. You mentioned thirstay seton we go. You
think the gap stuff is more guy vacating than being pushed.

Speaker 7 (01:07:03):
We'll see whereas you know it can don't be righted,
but uh, we got work to do, and you know
we got to attack him.

Speaker 11 (01:07:11):
Yeah, just don't try to make the play that's not
your play. Stay where you're supposed to be.

Speaker 8 (01:07:18):
And you don't you don't read anything into his answers,
Like when you asked him, is that an outlier?

Speaker 3 (01:07:23):
And he said it's got to be.

Speaker 8 (01:07:25):
And then you asked him, are you getting pushed out
of your gaps or are you just vacating your gaps?
And he goes, uh, we'll see, that's not a lot
of conviction that it's going to change.

Speaker 11 (01:07:36):
Well, I mean, I think the tone he was trying
to set, the point he was trying to make was
they can't just talk.

Speaker 3 (01:07:43):
About it, they do it. They got to be about it.

Speaker 9 (01:07:45):
Now.

Speaker 11 (01:07:46):
The Bengals offensive line played better in the second half
against Green Bay, but it's still not good. And they
should have dominated up front and it should have been
third and nine all night and it wasn't.

Speaker 3 (01:07:55):
And you saw what happened. So tall for chance this week,
but also tens and thirty thirteenth, so I don't know
if it would have mattered.

Speaker 11 (01:08:04):
Also, being at home is an advantage for defenses, at
least it should be oh yeah, when the offense has
to go silent, count it theoretically should not be as effective.

Speaker 5 (01:08:15):
Early word on the weather here just looking ahead, looks
like we got good weather coming up, so already should
be not a factor.

Speaker 6 (01:08:23):
Though.

Speaker 3 (01:08:24):
A little chilli.

Speaker 11 (01:08:25):
Ask Calvin Austin if he'd be available, and he said,
quote hopefully unquote.

Speaker 6 (01:08:31):
Appreciate his brevity.

Speaker 3 (01:08:34):
Money add the quoter, did you huh?

Speaker 8 (01:08:37):
No, I added, I added the quote the unquote actually
got hurt again unquoted, No, I added to thank.

Speaker 3 (01:08:45):
You, he's out with a punctuation.

Speaker 6 (01:08:48):
Too.

Speaker 11 (01:08:48):
Money night football games. Last night Detroit played Tampa. Tampa
didn't have any receivers, Detroit didn't have any of the
defensive backs that started the season for the Lions. But
Detroit ran the ball twenty four to nine. Lions and
in the nightcap Monday Night or Seattle took care of
the Texans twenty seven to nineteen.

Speaker 3 (01:09:07):
We've got a World Series matchup.

Speaker 11 (01:09:08):
It'll be the Blue Jays against the Dodgers, Toronto beating
Seattle four to three in Game seven in Toronto last night.
The Jays got there thanks to a three run dinger
from George Springer.

Speaker 3 (01:09:21):
And to Bob of the seventh Springer dinger.

pin Rodney, three up and three down.

Speaker 11 (01:09:39):

Speaker 3 (01:12:11):
From the NFL and CBS.

Speaker 5 (01:12:13):
It's gane Gan.

Speaker 3 (01:12:18):
Geez Sterotor, Get out.

Speaker 9 (01:12:22):
Good morning everyone, Good morning Gino.

Speaker 5 (01:12:25):
First question we have to ask you about is taking
you back to Thursday night and the Steelers lost to
the Bengals. In retrospect the interception where DJ Turner ripped
the ball from DK Metcalf.

Speaker 3 (01:12:37):
Did they get that call right?

Speaker 18 (01:12:40):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (01:12:40):
I think they did get it right.

Speaker 18 (01:12:41):
I mean it was a frame by Francott of review,
but I think for him to finish the process of
the catch, right, you've got to have possession two feet
down time to make a football move or a third step.
And I think when I've watched this thing countless times, right,
I mean it's possession one foot Actually the second foot
just kind of hits the ground. But then as he's
going from that point the ball comes loose right away.

(01:13:04):
Then when the defender gets the ball. What I was
looking at too, was okay, is DK out of bounds
right as this is happening. But that left knee, I
think it was the left knee of the defender. It
hits in bounds when he has possession, and we know
that is you know that's a body part. Now that's
not two feet one league was two feet and then
you flip the flip play. Tough play for the ref.

(01:13:25):
I would have done what the ref did. He kind
of just stopped the clock and was looking around at
everybody like, dude, I don't know what just happened. I'm
not really sure, but one thing, Let's just stop the clock, everybody,
Let's just stop the clock.

Speaker 9 (01:13:37):
He send it upstairs.

Speaker 18 (01:13:38):
I don't know what happened, but something crazy happened over here.

Speaker 9 (01:13:41):
Let him figure it out upstairs, you know, Geen.

Speaker 8 (01:13:44):
Late in that game, after the touchdown pass that Aaron
Rodgers threw to Pat Friarmouth when Broderick Jones tackled him,
shouldn't that have been a penalty? I mean, is roughing
the passer? Roughing the passer, no matter even if it's
friendly fire. I mean, we protecting me, these guys are.

Speaker 9 (01:14:00):
Aren't we? Yeah?

Speaker 18 (01:14:02):
I think I think he could have fucked blindside block.
I think we might have like bargaining. I'm not really sure.
Like there was a lot of penalties there. Broger came
up from behind, you know, guys and see him coming,
and there was a lot going on there, and then.

Speaker 9 (01:14:16):
As a referee protect the quarterback all the way to
the bench, so you know you got to run with
him at that point.

Speaker 3 (01:14:21):
Yeah, nothing else.

Speaker 21 (01:14:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (01:14:27):
The facial expression though, is enough to look back.

Speaker 9 (01:14:30):
It's like plastic. It's priceless, no doubt.

Speaker 6 (01:14:33):
Jane.

Speaker 3 (01:14:34):
You didn't have to watch the Tampa Detroit game last night,
did you?

Speaker 18 (01:14:38):
I watched bits and pizzas of it, Mike, you know,
in my life, you know, you got to think about
it though, kind of that's my profession. You know, when
a guy that bills houses go home at night and
at eight thirty go, you know, I'm gonna watch.

Speaker 9 (01:14:49):
You know, d y D.

Speaker 18 (01:14:50):
I just watch a little do it yourself Hongry model. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm still I'm a fan of the game.

Speaker 9 (01:14:58):
So I did watch a good bit of it last.

Speaker 11 (01:15:00):
Were you a fan of the pass to the Tampa
tight end that was called a first down and then
reviewed and then called a first down and then reviewed
again and said, you know a lot, it's not a
first down, Detroit, Paul.

Speaker 18 (01:15:13):
You know, that was an interesting whole sequence to me,
because you know, when when you do challenge something, all
reviewable aspects of a play or you know, are reviewable
once you get into that, and then the wording of
it kind of perplexed me a little bit, quite honestly,
because he was ruling whether it was a catcher, whether
it wasn't a catch.

Speaker 9 (01:15:33):
Okay, well, well it was a catch, but he also
didn't make the line to gain. That was kind of a.

Speaker 18 (01:15:39):
Blip in the in the in the process, right because
when Hussy goes underneath the hood there and starts to
discuss whether it's a catch or not, somebody upstairs or
hopefully somebody on the field is saying, listen, not only
even need to look at that, this thing's close to
a first down or not. Let's finish it all at
one time. So when you come out then you go back. Uh,
not a good.

Speaker 9 (01:15:59):
Look as far as the process was concerned.

Speaker 21 (01:16:01):
They got it right, you know, but it did kind
of wonky.

Speaker 11 (01:16:04):
Because yeah, remember when people actually measured for first downs.

Speaker 3 (01:16:10):
They didn't say, they didn't say it looks like he's short.
Oh well, I know.

Speaker 9 (01:16:16):
Well I kind of a little bit old too.

Speaker 18 (01:16:18):
I remember when if it was really close, you just
pulled your penalty car out and ran them down the
lade of the games, you know.

Speaker 9 (01:16:24):
I mean you want to get in there really.

Speaker 18 (01:16:26):
Let you know, back in the day, this is how
we did it, not this cartoon animation stuff.

Speaker 9 (01:16:31):
You know, I didn't even.

Speaker 11 (01:16:31):
See they just said it. I mean, you got to
measure that at some point, don't you.

Speaker 9 (01:16:40):
You don't like you.

Speaker 18 (01:16:40):
You sound like about twenty five thousand people that I
used to see every Sunday in the middle of the game,
you know, voicing their displeasure and showing a little intensity.

Speaker 9 (01:16:50):
It was always a beautiful thing for me.

Speaker 3 (01:16:52):
Well, let me ask you this.

Speaker 5 (01:16:54):
Back to the Steelers games, Zach Taylor and the Bengals
challenged a spot on a fourth down. They were going
to go for it on fourth down, and then they
looked at it and they're like, now, it's still not
a first down, but we marked it wrong. It's a
lot closer to the first down marker than we had it,
but it's still not a first down, and so they
lose the challenge.

Speaker 3 (01:17:13):
But my point is.

Speaker 5 (01:17:15):
Well he was right, you spotted it wrong because this
could change his play call.

Speaker 3 (01:17:21):
Maybe now he pushed, you know, tush pushes or something.

Speaker 5 (01:17:24):
Shouldn't that enable a coach to keep their time out
if they re spot it, even if it's not for
a first down.

Speaker 18 (01:17:32):
Well, you change the aspect of the play because of review,
like you said, because we moved it. But you did
challenge that you felt like he made the first down.
So your challenge to me is I think it's a
first down. Okay, well it was a yard and a
half short on the field. Now it's a half yard
shot on the field. But you still lost it. You
ask me, you know, you ask if it was a So.

Speaker 3 (01:17:53):
It's because he worded it that way.

Speaker 11 (01:17:54):
Romantics. Yeah, you got to word it in the phrase
of a question. Do you know.

Speaker 9 (01:18:00):
You got it?

Speaker 18 (01:18:01):
Like a Jeopardy said, you don't when we get over there.
It's semantics now, you know, like can you say it again.

Speaker 9 (01:18:06):
Zach, Well, more times say it again? You get it?

Speaker 18 (01:18:09):
Hold it as a question.

Speaker 9 (01:18:11):
So it's wrong, you know, you know, yeah, I don't know.
You Yeah, last night was a.

Speaker 18 (01:18:19):
Really unique when they challenged I think it was like
five yards short of the line to gain and that
was also in the Detroit game.

Speaker 9 (01:18:26):
And then they challenged that.

Speaker 18 (01:18:28):
They felt like and Hussy kind of announced it, which
I thought was weird. You can't challenge just the spotting
of the ball if you think that, you know, with
a ten eight yard game and I think it was
a six yard game. You can't challenge just where the
ball goes. It has to be in relation to a
score or a line to games like so they were
like five yards short last night and someone challenged, like

(01:18:49):
and Husty announced, like the rule that you know, we're
challenging the spotting of the balls that relates to a
first ve Like, dude, these five and a half yards
short of the line to game. You know, you can't
really challenge but within reason.

Speaker 5 (01:19:01):
What if it were for a field goal? What if
it what if two yards was the difference between a
makeable field goal or not.

Speaker 18 (01:19:09):
It's a great question, but it's still again, Uh, you know,
you got to go back to how the how the
rule is written. Can schoulenge spots as it relates to
a scoring play for the line to gain a field
goal is a scoring play pending because we still have
to have it, you know, but it has to be
a kick.

Speaker 9 (01:19:26):
But you know, rid, I'm going to bring that one up.

Speaker 18 (01:19:28):
That's a competition committee and we'll take care of that.

Speaker 3 (01:19:31):
And most buddy, I appreciate it.

Speaker 5 (01:19:33):
The last last thing a half for you, Uh, they
finally called the false start on the Philly tush push
is did Minnesota unlock the secret?

Speaker 3 (01:19:42):
Do you just like get a guy on all.

Speaker 5 (01:19:44):
Fours sideways in front of the center and just confuse
those big hogs down there?

Speaker 3 (01:19:50):
Is that?

Speaker 22 (01:19:50):
Is that?

Speaker 9 (01:19:50):
What it is? Yeah?

Speaker 18 (01:19:52):
You know what, I think we're getting to that place
right where when it finally gets really so so ugly
that really it is an appealing whatsoever.

Speaker 9 (01:20:01):
And anyway, now, okay, well then.

Speaker 18 (01:20:02):
Let's revote on this and get rid of it. But
it looked like they came up with something there that
may be a deterrent to the tush push and moving forward.
But time will tell. Time will tell.

Speaker 5 (01:20:14):
Jean Seratoory brought you by Schneider Downs this morning on
DV GINO always a pleasure and we got a big
game against Aaron Rodgers former team Green Day Packers on
Sunday night.

Speaker 3 (01:20:25):
I like the drama on this one.

Speaker 18 (01:20:28):
I love the jarm on this and this would be
fantastic football, and you were not at a bad place.
A little blipping the screen defensively, it's time for the
defense to pick it up a little bit. But it
felt like the offense is clicking. Like you get a
different feeling now when you know, whenever.

Speaker 9 (01:20:45):
You get the football.

Speaker 18 (01:20:45):
It's not like it felt maybe years past, where man,
we're just we can't put the ball in the end zone.
They can put the ball in the end zone right now,
you know, So get the rhythm, get on the bicycle.
The defense will show up. You gotta have faith.

Speaker 11 (01:20:58):
We say years past, I mean like last year and
the year before that.

Speaker 5 (01:21:01):
Yeah, and the year before that.

Speaker 14 (01:21:05):
Before that, really before that.

Speaker 18 (01:21:09):
Yeah, the recent path, the distance path.

Speaker 5 (01:21:13):
Like yeah, always a pleasure, buddy, Thanks so much. Talk
about next week? All right, baby's got your news when
we come back. What are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (01:21:23):

Speaker 8 (01:21:48):
And they're like, it's like the the junk yard in
Nothing but Trouble, Like these are places that exist at
you junk yard you don't know exist like this?

Speaker 5 (01:21:59):
You know what is what been here? You know where
it is? Crane Avenue where you come down, Yeah, under that,
you know the trestle of death. Yeah, it's like, don't worry,
they'll yield on the other side, Please yield as soon
as you come.

Speaker 3 (01:22:12):

Speaker 6 (01:22:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:22:15):
I think they have lots on both sides. But if
you've been there, the junk gardn nothing but trouble. I
just think all junk yards are that.

Speaker 13 (01:22:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:22:23):
There there's an entire ecosystem going on there that we
don't know anything about.

Speaker 8 (01:22:28):
Yep, like maybe some twins that are missing, several strands of.

Speaker 3 (01:22:32):
DNA that have been missing.

Speaker 4 (01:22:36):
Are you the romanos Brandy Bellman and the DV Morning Show.

Cloudy chants for thunderstorms today and it's going to be
breezy with a high of just sixty four. And believe
it or not, we're only a month away from Thanksgiving.
There is bad news there though, if you're thinking about
maybe serving a turkey this year. According to the American
Farm Bureau Federation, America's turkey flock has decreased to the

(01:23:28):
smallest size in forty years. It's partially due to another
resurgence in bird flu cases AH and also reduced production.

Speaker 6 (01:23:39):
Yeah, they're sick and they can't get boners. Got a
bunch of ampotent turkeys running around.

Speaker 2 (01:23:47):
Turkey blue Choo.

Speaker 1 (01:23:49):
Turkey prices are about forty percent higher than they were
just last year, and apparently there aren't any signs that
that will be easing up over the.

Speaker 2 (01:23:57):
Next five weeks.

Speaker 1 (01:24:00):
So I guess the good news if you're willing to
pony up, there's gonna be turkey on the shelves both
Butterball and the National.

Speaker 3 (01:24:07):
Could this turkey get a boner? Get to ask your butcher?

Speaker 2 (01:24:11):
Can this turkey get a butter ball?

Speaker 3 (01:24:14):
Butter Balls?

Speaker 1 (01:24:17):
The National Turkey Federation says there will be enough frozen
turkeys for Thanksgiving, but supply tighten up for fresh for specific.

Speaker 5 (01:24:27):
I got a little there's I have some Thanksgiving drama
going on right now because my sister called me and
she's like, hey, she has in the last few months.

Speaker 3 (01:24:36):
And I don't get to see her that much.

Speaker 5 (01:24:37):
I see her like three or four times a year,
you know, unless you know she started dating somebody. She's
been friends with with this guy for yes, for fifteen years,
they've been friends and circumstances coincided and now they are
a couple. And she's like, and my older sister met him.
She's like, oh my god, he's awesome. You're gonna love him.
I'm so happy for and I'm like, this is great,
this is great news. And she calls me and she's

(01:24:59):
all say, She's like, I just want to let you know,
and I'm like, I dude, I heard it. It's awesome.
She's like, so we're gonna come for Thanksgiving and I'm
like that's great. And she's like, and he's got a dog.
I'm like, dogs are welcome. We love dogs. You know,
more dogs better and she's like, well, here's the thing.
So he's like a year in change and he's not fixed.
And I'm like, well, can you get him fixed before Thanksgiving?

(01:25:21):
Because that was certainly help, you know, And she's like,
butter ball's lopped off, that's right. She's like, well, he
doesn't want to get him fixed until he's two. And
I'm like, okay, all right, that's it.

Speaker 3 (01:25:30):
I don't know. And so I'm like, well, so here's
the only thing.

Speaker 5 (01:25:34):
Now you've described a big dog here that's only a
year and a half, so it's got a lot of
puppy and it's not fixed, and there's going to be
another big male dog in the house and a big
female dog in the house that's already kind of crazy.
Then we got a couple of toddlers that can't be

(01:25:54):
knocked over all right, also in the house.

Speaker 3 (01:25:57):
And I'm just like, should you say the breed? Uh it?
Or is it a mix?

Speaker 5 (01:26:02):
It's a mix, but it has burner is like, it's big,
so it's a big guy.

Speaker 3 (01:26:08):
It's a big guy.

Speaker 5 (01:26:08):
And so I'm like trying to be very like, I
want you to bring your dog. However, like, also, this
could be a disaster. I go, do you want to
introduce the guide to the family and have his dog
like causing dog fights in like we can separate him
and stuff, But like, you know, no, it's just like

(01:26:30):
she's like, it's gonna be fine. I'm like, I'm sure
it'll be fine. But also, is there an alternative? I
love dogs, but you're describing a potential like stressful situation.

Speaker 3 (01:26:40):
She's like, it's not gonna bother me a bit. I go,
I get, But.

Speaker 5 (01:26:46):
It's everybody else, you know, dog fights happening the whole
time while trying to corral toddlers. Is like, uh yeah,
potentially a little of a difficulty.

Speaker 3 (01:26:58):
It's dangerous. She heard none of it.

Speaker 5 (01:27:00):
He was just like.

Speaker 3 (01:27:03):
Fine, I'm like okay.

Speaker 5 (01:27:05):
And I talked to my brother and I was like, so,
I'm gonna get one of those big dog mits where
they bite you, and I guess I'll take care of that.

Speaker 3 (01:27:16):
Yeah, exactly. To everyone at the table, We'll be fine.

Speaker 5 (01:27:20):
Don't worry because you know how puppies are and stuff,
and I don't want to like be mad at the dude,
be like I just meet him and be like, hey, man, like,
did you think about leaving Kujo in the car for
you know.

Speaker 8 (01:27:35):
What's crazy too, is I told this story once on
the show that it's not just that that dog will
be aggressive, it's that the other dogs will sense and
smell that he still has his testes. Yes, because I
took Juju to a dog park and everybody rolled up
on him immediately, like, and I was like, what.

Speaker 6 (01:27:57):
The hell is everybody's problem? But they were like, you
still get your balls? Must be nice.

Speaker 3 (01:28:03):
It's jealousy, that's what it is. We all got empty.

Speaker 5 (01:28:06):
Socks this pieces and then they slash a over they
don't have balls anymore.

Speaker 3 (01:28:14):
Yeah, very zesty dogs.

Speaker 5 (01:28:16):
Yeah, that's what I'm worried about.

Speaker 6 (01:28:21):
It's literally gonna be like, you know, your dog might gons.

Speaker 10 (01:28:24):
Wolf side literally, yeah, story, yeah, the barks and the jets.

Speaker 3 (01:28:35):
Yeah, dude, it's not. I mean I loved about.

Speaker 6 (01:28:38):
The female dog. Is she fixed because that could be?

Speaker 5 (01:28:42):
Yes, she is, but she is also a puppy and
she's huge. She's a burner also, so all three dogs
have burner, so they're big. She is crazy, like, she's
already a handful, So that's kind of I was trying
to point out. I'm like, I'm trying to be very
diplomatic here. I'm not saying out to watch your boyfriend's dog. Come,

(01:29:02):
I love dogs. I'm just saying, maybe this particular mix
of dogs might be Yeah, let's just wait till they're
all fixed. Maybe, And she's like, nah, it's gonna be fine.
I'm like, you met you, Okay, you got it.

Speaker 8 (01:29:13):
What is the female's demeanor because I've never met him,
saying I've never he's met.

Speaker 6 (01:29:17):
A burner that that had that demeanor.

Speaker 3 (01:29:19):
This dog is absolutely nuts. She is hilarious.

Speaker 5 (01:29:23):
But she's one of those dogs where are like, you
can't catch her, she doesn't want to go inside, and
if you do, she rolls over on her back and
she's like a yeah. The pause her in the air
and she's like rolling around.

Speaker 3 (01:29:37):
You can't get me. I do that at the end
of the night when maybe he does that at the bar.
Being I've done it dead way, I'm sure it'll be fine.

Speaker 5 (01:29:50):
It'll be totally fine, but you know, at least we'll
have some like you know, Turkey issues on top of that.

Speaker 1 (01:29:57):
It would be.

Speaker 2 (01:29:58):
Nice and related item there.

Speaker 1 (01:30:01):
If you are thinking of flying for Thanksgiving, you might
want to buy those tickets sooner rather than later.

Speaker 2 (01:30:07):
Ideally.

Speaker 1 (01:30:08):
This week there was a travel report from Google that
found that the best prices for Thanksgiving plane tickets tend
to be thirty five days before you want to travel,
which is about now ish. Thanksgiving is thirty seven days off,
but you're probably not looking to fly on the day itself,
so you can get a decent price up to twenty

(01:30:30):
four days before you fly. So if you need to
wait another week or two, you're probably fine. Those might
not be the only tickets that you're buying in the
next few weeks, so the best time to book tickets
for Christmas is about fifty one days out, so that
is another thing to consider.

Speaker 3 (01:30:45):
I've told this story every year. Thanksgiving.

Speaker 5 (01:30:48):
My number one advice piece of advice for people who
are flying for Thanksgiving.

Speaker 3 (01:30:54):
Give up the Wednesday night.

Speaker 5 (01:30:56):
Just play just punt on Wednesday night, and if you
fly on Thanksgiving morning.

Speaker 3 (01:31:03):
It'll be stress free. You walk right through the airport, you.

Speaker 5 (01:31:07):
Get on your plane, you go, as long as you're
not going to like the West coast or something like that.
Because I would go to my sisters in Chicago's frequently
in the two thousands, and I always flew that morning
and I would catch like a nine to thirty flight
out of Pittsburgh. I was at her house by eleven
thirty Chicago time, like you know, yeah, because that flight.

Speaker 3 (01:31:29):
Is nothing and you go back what one hour?

Speaker 5 (01:31:32):
Yeah, yeah, So I'd be at her house before lunch, yeah,
you know, and then hanging out and seeing everybody's you know,
just kind of getting done with their morning.

Speaker 3 (01:31:40):
And you miss Wednesday night and Wednesday nights.

Speaker 5 (01:31:43):
It is a fun hang, I think on thanksgnning, but
game night, Yeah, it's a fun hang.

Speaker 3 (01:31:49):
There's no question. How you wake up and you're there.
There's that too.

Speaker 5 (01:31:54):
But the travel that like if you can't get out
of work until the afternoon on that Wednesday and you
have to take a Wednesday afternoon. Flight I mean the
planes trains in automobile scenario is definitely on the table.

Speaker 3 (01:32:08):
It's possible, yeap, all.

Speaker 2 (01:32:11):
Right, I sent you guys to the video so you
could check it out.

Speaker 1 (01:32:12):
Axel Rose has kicked and thrown his mic at his
new Guns n' Roses drummer Isaac Carpenter's kit, and stormed
off the stage at a show in Argentina.

Speaker 2 (01:32:22):
So we now have crash out Axel back.

Speaker 1 (01:32:26):
But the band are in the middle of a South
American tour and on Saturday this past weekend they played
the second of two shows in Buenos Aires. But during
the show's opener, Welcome to the Jungle, which they open
with that, the Axel appeared to lose his temper and
he took it out on the drum kit. Audio doesn't

(01:32:47):
really help you kind of visualize this any better. So
but after the song's chorus, he threw his microphone at
the kit, He tore off his jacket, he stormed off
the stage.

Speaker 2 (01:32:55):
But elsewhere in the show, and there's kind of like
a super.

Speaker 5 (01:32:57):
Cut first song he walked off stage.

Speaker 3 (01:33:01):
Yeah, got First.

Speaker 5 (01:33:02):
Of all, he kicks the kick drum, which stupid correct. However,
he looked like de Niro kicking that guy in the Irishman,
like too old. He's a little too old to crash out.
It's more like he needs a crash cart, you know
what I mean. Like he looks like he might be
going into a bit of a geriatric tizzy.

Speaker 2 (01:33:23):
Yeah, and he's a little off balance.

Speaker 1 (01:33:25):
He's actually lucky that he didn't tick and then backwards,
because that is not a good uh technique.

Speaker 5 (01:33:32):
No, that's it's a bad look for him all the
way around. But walking off stage in the middle of
the first song of the night.

Speaker 3 (01:33:39):
You gotta pace yourself.

Speaker 8 (01:33:40):
You gotta get pissed off as the set goes off exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:33:45):
So at some point in the clip, he just like
screams that he's going to try to wing it, but
nobody knows why. He was so angry, and he kind
of just like storms off the stage, and that was
kind of it. So he's been apparently mad at the
last couple of nights. So I don't know if he's
specifically pissed off at the new drummer or if he

(01:34:06):
was having sound issues or what's going on.

Speaker 5 (01:34:08):
But I think even Axel would refrain from embarrassing the
drummer like that, you would think, I think, but maybe
I'm wrong. It seems to be a general overall thing.
This Duff and Slash kind of follow him like yo, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You know, they look like they're trying to mitigate calm

(01:34:29):
him down.

Speaker 2 (01:34:30):
Yeah, which Bill?

Speaker 1 (01:34:32):
Did you see all of the hallabaloo on the Brandy
and Monica The Boy is Mine Tour?

Speaker 3 (01:34:37):
No?

Speaker 6 (01:34:38):
Did it?

Speaker 1 (01:34:39):
They're doing like this tour together, which you know, Wait,
this is twenty twenty five.

Speaker 23 (01:34:45):
We're talking in the in the Year of Our Lord.

Speaker 3 (01:34:48):
They wow, Correct me if I'm wrong. They both had
TV shows. I don't. I don't believe Monica did.

Speaker 23 (01:34:56):
No, but they had I mean said that like Jimmy
Glick their television show.

Speaker 3 (01:35:11):
I watched it.

Speaker 5 (01:35:12):
She had a reality TV show called Monica Still Standing.

Speaker 1 (01:35:16):
Okay, Brandy obviously had a television show, but.

Speaker 5 (01:35:20):
They it was.

Speaker 3 (01:35:22):
Right, right's still sitting.

Speaker 1 (01:35:27):
So they have been doing this The Boy is Mine tour,
And they did a show in Chicago in which Brandy
left the stage and just never came back.

Speaker 3 (01:35:37):
Well, guess whose boy it is?

Speaker 1 (01:35:39):
I guess Monica Battle and they never performed guess which
song they never performed? Because of that, that is correct.

Speaker 5 (01:35:53):
They did they actually bring a boy out on stage
and then they kind of fight over him, Like I
hope so in you know, like theater, you know, yeah,
that would make sense. Or do they bring like someone
out of the out of the crowd to do that
every show, kind of like Janet Jackson used to do.

Speaker 3 (01:36:07):
Did you see that that video that John.

Speaker 6 (01:36:09):
Still does that with females at his concerts?

Speaker 3 (01:36:14):
Enterry your own risk on that one. Did you see
the video that was going around.

Speaker 5 (01:36:17):
Like the there's like a collage of guys that Janet
Jackson was bringing up on stage back in the day,
And uh, I don't know if it was rhythmination toward
what it was, but these guys were like losing their mind,
like yeah, they were risking it all basically.

Speaker 8 (01:36:31):
Because she's putting them on like a torture rack. Oh yeah,
and climbing up on top of them.

Speaker 5 (01:36:36):
Yeah, and they're like huh And guys were clearly getting
aroused and about to.

Speaker 2 (01:36:41):
Get timber Lake yes, yeah, oh no.

Speaker 3 (01:36:44):
Oh yeah. Usher does that too.

Speaker 8 (01:36:49):
Usher like goes out into the crowd, serenades a woman,
like dances with her.

Speaker 6 (01:36:54):
He feeds them cherries.

Speaker 5 (01:36:56):
I think that's how Jeff Jimmer's interesting thing and something
that one all right, I love into the.

Speaker 8 (01:37:00):
Crowd on the ground somebody's lap start riding them.

Speaker 5 (01:37:09):
And then you know, if it works, he gets the
crowd to saying the rest of it and he can mac.

Speaker 8 (01:37:13):
Usher is like feeding women cherries in the front row,
and this girl has like a straight up giraffe tongue
and just starts.

Speaker 6 (01:37:24):
Like really tongue dancing all.

Speaker 3 (01:37:26):
Over these you're allergic to cherries, And.

Speaker 6 (01:37:33):
Usher's like, we're going to take a quick intermission that.

Speaker 5 (01:37:37):
We'll be right back. Do the video you sent the
other day or did you send them to me? No,
Clinton sent me this video of like there's a saxophone,
like an R and B saxophone player playing in an
old folks home, like like we're tired, and there's like
like an auntie who's in there who starts feeling her

(01:37:57):
oats from back, you know, and she's got like a
wig on and she's up front and she's like just
starts moving her finger to the guy like get over here,
get over here, and she's like, I mean, she's writhing
around and it's just like this woman became twenty five
years old again, just because she heard like the sexy
saxophone R and B the dulcet sound like, she's.

Speaker 9 (01:38:21):
All the.

Speaker 6 (01:38:25):
Darting her neck.

Speaker 3 (01:38:27):
We got transport her back to her room. Martha Nutt again, what.

Speaker 2 (01:38:32):
Was the clip that you sent us a while back?

Speaker 1 (01:38:33):
Was it Neil Diamond that like just straight up kissed
that woman?

Speaker 6 (01:38:37):
Dude?

Speaker 5 (01:38:37):
He used to do this at every concert, but there
was one. I think that one was in Melbourne. He
brings this woman up and I don't remember what song
he's singing to her. Might be Love on the Rocks,
But dude, first of all, she's way into it and
her head barely gets above the stage, so her chin
is on the stage, like right, that's that's how tall
she is compared to where he is. He's late, dude,

(01:38:59):
He's laying on his side. Now keep in mind he's
probably forty eight to fifty three at this time. Yeah,
and you know he has.

Speaker 6 (01:39:08):
Steve burnstyle like laying down.

Speaker 5 (01:39:11):
Yeah well yes, yes, super casual, but more like if
Bob POMPIENNI were laying down making out somebody, you know
what I mean.

Speaker 6 (01:39:18):
Okay, He's like, thank you for putting that image of Bob.

Speaker 5 (01:39:21):
Reminds me of Neil Diamond. I think they're the same
kind of character and.

Speaker 3 (01:39:27):
Steel Diamond, Yeah, Pittsburgh.

Speaker 5 (01:39:29):
So so she's singing the lyrics and this this woman's
like holding onto his cheeks and kissing him, and he's
like caressing her and stuff, and it is straight.

Speaker 3 (01:39:39):
Like on makeout dude.

Speaker 6 (01:39:42):
Yeah, they are.

Speaker 5 (01:39:43):
Getting it on and he's just on stage with that
glitter shirt. And you know that she got a backstage pass.

Speaker 3 (01:39:50):
Oh yeah, she got a lot more than that. Yeah,
he got some backage.

Speaker 6 (01:39:57):
And Barker totally romancing chicks when the price is right.
The cattle prod Mikey had, Yeah, with.

Speaker 3 (01:40:05):
That long mic that had the lavalier at the end
of it. The MIC's not the only thing.

Speaker 8 (01:40:10):
You know what, who is that guy? Richard?

Speaker 5 (01:40:15):
Richard Dawson kissed everybody and uh, he was as creepy
as they come. And when people watch it, you know,
it's funny to me that like this generation can't watch
The American Office without cringing. Now go back, have them
watch some of Richard Dawson kissing women of all ages inappropriately.

Speaker 6 (01:40:35):
Talking to them inappropriately.

Speaker 5 (01:40:37):
All of America was one hundred percent okay with it,
until eventually I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:40:42):
There had to be a lawsuit or something. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:40:46):
Now they have not only you know the babes that
show off all the prizes, they have hot dudes that

hilariously interacting with those guys too.

Speaker 3 (01:41:04):
I think.

Speaker 9 (01:41:04):
So.

Speaker 5 (01:41:06):
I just remember, well, Bob Barker had like an affair
with a couple of He got sued by those the
prices right beauties, did he really?

Speaker 9 (01:41:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:41:13):

Speaker 11 (01:43:58):
Steelers defensive problems were as obvious as they were abundant
in Last Thursdays thirty three thirty one loss in Cincinnati,
but the offense was likewise culpable in that bungle against
the Bengals after scoring thirty one but also leaving a
number of points on the field.

Speaker 12 (01:44:15):
Yeah, for sure, obviously what there was there was a
hold on one of the touchdowns that Jalen score.

I think we kicked one maybe push yeah, yeah, yeah,
So there's there's always gonna be stuff to clean up.
Uh yeah, yeah, which I don't really agree that that
was an interception, but yeah, obviously there's some things we
want to clean up. There's always gonna be that. But
I think for the most part, we played a pretty
clean game.

Speaker 11 (01:44:39):
Do you guys look at it just with blinders on
what you're doing, or when you see the defense struggle
against Chase and start thinking, hey, we might have to
start putting up thirty.

Speaker 3 (01:44:47):
I mean, yeah, it's a team thing.

Speaker 12 (01:44:49):
You know, some days we don't have it the defenses
to pick us up, or some days we know we
have it, we need to pick.

Speaker 3 (01:44:52):
The defense up.

Speaker 12 (01:44:53):
I think the biggest thing was just, you know, making
sure we go out there and execute. And like I
said before, you know, obviously we have the touch push
full start, and we got to hold on the jail
and touchdown. So that took off, however many points off
the board, So you know, it's a collective team effort
for sure.

Speaker 6 (01:45:08):
Yeah. Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (01:45:09):
I was trying to drive that point home Friday a
little bit.

Speaker 11 (01:45:11):
I don't know if it came across, but you know,
how many games did the Bengals lose last year when
they scored in the thirties a ton a lot, like
you got to score how many you need to score?
Not Oh we got thirty one, this should be enough
to win. Well it wasn't. Thursday night.

Speaker 8 (01:45:25):
Yeah, one of those losses was to us. Yeah, they
scored thirty eight, forty four to thirty eight.

Speaker 11 (01:45:30):
Yeah, a golden opportunity to take control of the AFC
North was lost as a result. But tight end Pat
fryar Muth that we heard from a moment ago insisted
the Steelers are looking ahead, not behind, and not very
far ahead at that.

Speaker 9 (01:45:44):
We're ready to go.

Speaker 12 (01:45:44):
We're ready to focus on Green Bay and yeah, we're
just excited for for next week. Like I think I
said earlier in the last week. You know, we were
ten and two last year, ten and three. Last year
we dropped the last four. So I think this year
the team's mindset is very much week to week and
I'm not trying to think of the bigger picture and
still early as what we hate.

Speaker 11 (01:46:01):
So we'll bet it's probably a good place to keep
the mindset week to week, just focus on the task
at hand and then add them up at the end.

Speaker 6 (01:46:11):
Yeah, but they did.

Speaker 11 (01:46:12):
Blow a golden opportunity to have a four game lead
in the lost column on everybody in the division.

Speaker 5 (01:46:18):
Well, Mike, you know, when we started the show, I
was talking about the fact that, you know, if someone
were to have, say a bet for over eight and
a half wins for the Steelers this year right now,
you need five more wins and you're looking at that schedule.

Speaker 3 (01:46:33):
It's tight. That's why they call it gambling. The hard
is what makes it great.

Speaker 5 (01:46:40):
The point not being about to bet so much as
navigating the rest of the season could be pretty tough
for them, and I would hate to see this go
the same way as last year.

Speaker 11 (01:46:49):
But and if they beat Green Bay, we're in here
Monday morning with a completely different narrative.

Speaker 5 (01:46:53):
It's true roller coaster Rod Indie, Green Bay playing Baltimore
twice when Lamar will be back.

Speaker 11 (01:47:00):
And they were giving up forty a game with Lamar,
I mean, who's the juggernaut other than Boo Kansas City.

Speaker 6 (01:47:07):
We talked about that. At the end of last week.
Looked like the Chiefs were the Chiefs.

Speaker 11 (01:47:11):
Again, and then they just blasted the Raiders. We think
ave up three first downs or something ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (01:47:16):
It was a joke like.

Speaker 8 (01:47:17):
They had thirty first downs. I think the Raiders had
thirty plays total.

Speaker 5 (01:47:22):
Yeah, they got to get rid of Pete Carroll. Bring
back Gruden again?

Speaker 3 (01:47:28):
What's Gino Smith?

Speaker 9 (01:47:29):
Right?

Speaker 5 (01:47:29):
He stinks he's They're just terrible. But yet, g you know,
I mean, he was serviceable the last couple of years.
It's crazy. A lot of great and a lot of
people were calling for him to come here in this offseason.

Speaker 11 (01:47:41):
I wouldn't have thought before this season started that that
was the worst idea.

Speaker 5 (01:47:45):
In the world exactly. But that's how quickly guys can
fall off. But I also think he would have played
better here. I think he'd have a much better record
than he does with the Raiders. He said the same
thing about Justin Fields and even Russell Wilson earlier.

Speaker 3 (01:47:57):
Though, thank god I don't have to watch Russell Wilson anymore.

Speaker 6 (01:48:00):
Or listen to him.

Speaker 11 (01:48:00):
Oh God, God bless him. The toxic positivity was good
in a very short dose.

Speaker 5 (01:48:09):
It was just like we said, man, it was just
the idea that you never knew if they actually understood
how bad things were when they were bad because of
the toxic positivity.

Speaker 8 (01:48:17):
I really loved it in the off season. That was
when it was at its zenith for me, right.

Speaker 11 (01:48:23):
After you blow a game to the Bengals at home,
probably not the best time to hear it.

Speaker 5 (01:48:26):
No, he was trying to give that crap to Cam
or Cam get them away from me.

Speaker 6 (01:48:32):
Oh, by the way, you just lost us.

Speaker 11 (01:48:35):
Overstatement, but he troubled at the end, totally failed. You
need to get about three first downs for Boswow.

Speaker 3 (01:48:41):
Hey, Arthur Smith.

Speaker 24 (01:48:42):
You know Ryan Tannehill justin fields, Russell Wilson, that offense
made quarterbacks effective in the NFL, And sometimes maybe Gino's
in a scheme that just does not work for him.

Speaker 11 (01:48:56):
More Hannibal's Elephants less push push, Yeah, you know, you're
allowed to just gain a yard by running then ball.

Speaker 5 (01:49:05):
Well, that's why I hated that touch push penalty against
the Bengals because it was just like, just we were
tearing them up in the running game.

Speaker 6 (01:49:13):
What are we doing here?

Speaker 11 (01:49:15):
And they had a long track record of what like
one successful touch push in the history of the franchise. Yeah, exactly, Yeah,
sometimes they overthink you see. Uh, Seattle was tearing up
Houston last night driving again and decided to have Cooper
Cup throw a pass, a wide receiver reverse pass, and

(01:49:35):
I didn't see that picked off.

Speaker 3 (01:49:37):
Why do teams do that?

Speaker 11 (01:49:39):
I don't know, but it's not the fans exclusive to
the Steelers. A lot of these problems are leg wide
what everybody struggles with self imposed.

Speaker 6 (01:49:49):
Yeah, did you see how.

Speaker 11 (01:49:52):
Brian Flora's offense got chewed up and spit out by
the Eagles on Sunday?

Speaker 3 (01:50:00):
It's the Eagles, I know, but he didn't stop him,
didn't come close.

Speaker 11 (01:50:05):
Hm, three hundred yard pass or two hundred yard receivers
wasn't even just Barkley running it down there.

Speaker 3 (01:50:11):
Tak had a lot of injuries though. Yeah, they got
a lot of injuries. I got some problems too.

Speaker 5 (01:50:15):
Steelers might have some injuries too, defensively, but they might
have Calvin Austin back.

Speaker 11 (01:50:19):
Well good, he said, hopefully he's going to play. Actually
he just said hopefully. I said, Calvin, what's to look
like Sunday night? He said, hopefully partly cloudy? I assume
he met. I assume he meant playing, because my question
was kind of unclear. Did you talk to him Mason? Also,
Mason sort of uh interjected, I was interviewing Pat Fryarmuth,

(01:50:40):
and of course, one of the reasons why Friarmuth came
back from the witness protection program.

Speaker 3 (01:50:45):
Yeah, I had a big game against Rudolph.

Speaker 11 (01:50:48):
Thinks that that may continue to happen because all of
a sudden, Pat Friarmuth looks the part.

Speaker 3 (01:50:53):
As as soon as he went with a mustache, looked.
Look what happened?

Speaker 6 (01:50:55):
Okay, two touchdowns, a big game.

Speaker 3 (01:50:57):
What does that tell you? It tells you that the
mustache should be here to stay.

Speaker 5 (01:51:00):
Well, then the whole team should grow mustaches. Yeah, let's
all grow mustaches.

Speaker 6 (01:51:04):
Whatever it takes.

Speaker 3 (01:51:06):
Yeah, November, let's make it happen for the Steelers. It's
gonna be d Line especially. I think that Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 5 (01:51:16):
Was not exactly hiding his cards on that one when
he brought them up last.

Speaker 3 (01:51:22):
Week after the game Thursday night.

Speaker 6 (01:51:25):
This is his first time facing them, right, I believe so.

Speaker 5 (01:51:28):
Yeah, he didn't play them with the Jets, so he
didn't play the first year.

Speaker 3 (01:51:32):
Yeah right, Yeah, that ended poorly? Am I murdering that correctly?

Speaker 9 (01:51:37):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:51:38):
My god? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:51:39):
In Green Bay?

Speaker 3 (01:51:39):
Yeah? Yeah, are you kidding me?

Speaker 5 (01:51:42):
No, their fans wanted him gone.

Speaker 3 (01:51:45):
They were calling them Karen Rodgers. Things are different.

Speaker 5 (01:51:49):
I'm telling you, he's settled down and stopped doing the
things that was pissing everybody.

Speaker 6 (01:51:54):
Off, Like the McAfee show.

Speaker 3 (01:51:56):
That's a big.

Speaker 5 (01:51:57):
One because it was yank in the wheel. It's just
a distraction, yes, because anything he says is going to
be headlines. Right, So now it's just about football and
that nobody's talking about him. Nobody's not relative to how
much they were before. But I mean he has and
you pointed this out earlier. I mean that performance against

(01:52:19):
the Bengals pretty damn good. Oh yeah, he's been pretty
damn good all year.

Speaker 8 (01:52:25):
Flacco kind of stole the headlines because he did that,
and it's a new team and he had been discarded
by the Browns and traded in division and Tomlin's comments
about Joe Flacco and then he comes out and plays
out of his damn mind.

Speaker 3 (01:52:38):
One of one of the best games of his career.
Flaco was.

Speaker 8 (01:52:42):
Yeah, Rogers was doing things that I haven't seen him
do as a Steeler. Some of the you know, the
scramble drills. I mean, that's really impressive. The throat of
Friarmuth to put the Steelers up late was incredible.

Speaker 3 (01:52:55):
That would have been the story.

Speaker 5 (01:52:56):
That that was the throw of the night. Surviving brought
at Jones totally. Well, yeah too, seriously, all that's big too.

Speaker 3 (01:53:04):
He had a night fleck. I had a better one.

Speaker 5 (01:53:05):
That's a good by the way, that would be a
good Halloween costume. You just wear an Aaron Rodgers jersey
and then you get a dummy on top of you
with a broderc jersey.

Speaker 3 (01:53:13):
Yeah, like tackling the tackling you all night. I actually
like that a good deal. Yeah, I mean you have
to get two jerseys.

Speaker 6 (01:53:22):
That's the ta.

Speaker 3 (01:53:23):
It'll flaw in that one three hundred dollars costume. But yeah,
well you're gonna commit to the bit or nut. Abby's

They're always looking out for you in this imperfect world.
Before you talk to the insurance company, fine Edgar from
the Pittsburgh Steeler Audio Network postgame show Charlie Batch joining
us right now.

Speaker 9 (01:55:54):
Now.

Speaker 21 (01:55:54):
I'm not good morning everyone. How's everyone doing?

Speaker 5 (01:55:56):
I'll be doing okay. I'm still a little pissed about
the way things went on Thursday night. Mostly from a
defensive standpoint, and let's start there. How do you go
from looking like you've shored up the run against Cleveland
to taking on the worst rushing team in the NFL
and making the guy look like Eric Dickerson.

Speaker 21 (01:56:14):
I think that's the right on point, and I think ultimately,
I think they went into this game underestimating that offensive line.
They looked at statistics, Oh, we can dominate up front.
Let's now disregard all of the details and just the
packages that they were using, especially in their sub package.
Those are things that are alarming because you gave up
you know, you look like you were trending in the
right direction, but yet you're giving up the rushing yards.

(01:56:36):
And that's something that ultimately can happen because we have
it automatically takes us back to last year, especially in
that Baltimore game, when they gave up two hundred and
ninety nine yards and wasn't able to fix the run defense,
so they got to fix it in a hurry.

Speaker 5 (01:56:47):
Was there one guy in particular or two guys who
didn't do what they did against Cleveland or got moved
around in a way that rendered them unable to stop
them from getting huge games?

Speaker 3 (01:57:02):
On first down.

Speaker 21 (01:57:03):
Yeah, you know, pun into it. You're using that defensive
line front and four linebackers and ultimately that package right
there with the formula that didn't work and they were
able to gash them every single time. It kept them
on track and they were in third, medium, thirty short
opportunities really the whole game. And that's the part that
it was frustrating because now when you get in that

(01:57:23):
second and medium, everything is on the equation as it
relates to what you want to do offensively, whether that's
taking a shot down the field or just play possession football.
And Black Oak may made that defense pay for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:57:35):
Well, are you saying that that's a function of the
defense they had called?

Speaker 22 (01:57:38):
It is?

Speaker 21 (01:57:39):
And everything that concerns me because now you put that
performance on film, Now you know Green Bay loves to
run the football. They're going to spread you out, and
now you're essentially going to have that same defensive front
this week. So now they have to prove that they
can stop the run early. If not, it's going to
be a long day for them with the run defense
against Green Bay.

Speaker 11 (01:57:57):
Charli, are you surprised they're not playing more press this
man outside?

Speaker 21 (01:58:02):
I am because this is you know, noticement has been
talked about a lot, and this is why you revamped
your secondary to take on a offensive like Cincinnati, and
they just weren't able to rebound. And man, the man
was the big forte of this defense. Coming into it,
they felt very comfortable, but unfortunately, you know, you got
to kind of pick and choose your battles and they
didn't want to get beat over the top. But yet

(01:58:24):
they were giving up that slant and that's something that
really we need to say, Swam. It probably did people
nightmares because they ran a slant so many times to
perfection in.

Speaker 8 (01:58:32):
That game of their corners, Charlie, which do you think
is the biggest issue is slay over the hill? Is
Ramsey giving up big splash or is Porter just not
able to keep his hands off receivers.

Speaker 21 (01:58:44):
Yeah, it's a combination of everything right now. But you know,
the one thing that I will say, yeah, I was
necessarily go there, this is the fact that they're not
playing together. And I say all of that because this
was that for team that form in the back of
the defensive front that was supposed to be the strng
of this team. But they haven't played together consistently and now, okay,
you will give them a pal give them the pass

(01:59:05):
this week. But again, let's see if they can correct that.
And a lot of it comes down to the communication
issues in key times and key moments in the game.
They're not all playing the same defensive guys are running
Scott free. I know, we'll look at T. Higgins in
that big pass and he caught over Jalen Ramsey at
the end of the game, but it was the play
before that they weren't playing the right defense. And here
you have Jamar Chase running free, getting him in the

(01:59:27):
field goal position. So those are things that can be corrected.
They just have to prove it.

Speaker 5 (01:59:32):
What did you make at Joe Flacco's performance? I mean,
how what did he take a Flakos before?

Speaker 7 (01:59:40):
No?

Speaker 5 (01:59:40):
I mean, I mean, he's not much younger than you,
you know what I mean, and he went out there
and looked like the best quarterback in the league. Is
that just that if you have Jamar Chase and T Higgins,
you can look like Joe Flacco did on Sunday night?

Speaker 3 (01:59:54):
Or was that a real special performance?

Speaker 5 (01:59:56):
Because it seems to me that I don't know that
I've ever seen him that pinpoint act for that much
of a game.

Speaker 21 (02:00:03):
Hey, they make your job a whole heck of a
lot easier. All you got to do is get them
the ball in space and let those guys run. But again,
when you have a guy who would experience as Flaco,
he's learning from the neck of and he faced the Steelers.
The defense hasn't changed. There's not much that you can
actually change, and people throw that out there. We knew
what they were doing. Of course you do, because we offensively,
you can dictate how you want a defense the lineup

(02:00:24):
at the end of the day. Defensively, as a coordinator,
you put your guys in one on one situation, whether
that's a linebacker on a running back. That's why we
always talk about back on bachers dockers doing training camp.
You have to whip the guy in front of you,
just like the defensive linment beat the guy in front
of you get to the ball carrier. So these type
of things. They just have to win their one on
one battles, and they're not doing it consistently. Well.

Speaker 5 (02:00:45):
You bring up that good point I keep seeing this online,
is that you know we know what's coming.

Speaker 3 (02:00:50):
They did exactly what they we thought they were going
to do.

Speaker 5 (02:00:53):
And if this gets translated into a criticism of coach Tomlin,
are you saying that they're only doing these things because
the offensive schemes are dictating they get back into these
predictable defensive formations.

Speaker 21 (02:01:09):
Yeah, this is this is the you know, the chess
match that you're playing there. You know the protection that
offenses are going to run throughout the course. You just
have to predict at that point when they're going to
run that protection to confusion.

Speaker 9 (02:01:19):
To get to the quarterback.

Speaker 21 (02:01:20):
That's the that's the head and flow of the game,
and that's the beauty of watching it and that's why
we all fall in love with it. At the end
of it, it comes down, Hey, I know what you're doing.
You know what I'm doing.

Speaker 6 (02:01:30):
Stop it.

Speaker 21 (02:01:30):
And that's just what it comes down to. And that's
why I say when I say they're not winning one
on one battles, that's what I mean.

Speaker 5 (02:01:36):
Sunday night, Aaron Rodgers taking on his former team. I mean,
another great game for Aaron Rodgers in Cincinnati this past
Thursday night.

Speaker 3 (02:01:46):
What do you like to do you see out of
Aaron Rodgers right now?

Speaker 21 (02:01:50):
Yeah, this guy is playing with a lot of fun,
that's for sure, outside of the Roger Jones taple of
you know, but when you get to this point of
him just having fun, understanding st situation, that's why you
brought him in here. He's not going to beat you
and making those mental mistakes. This guy has a ton
of experience. That's why you have him here. Of course,
now you know, I thought he would kind of not
say too much and kind of just kind of slide

(02:02:12):
under the waist. I bringing Rebay in here. He knows
this game and with that stake. At this particular point,
the reports are coming out this is the only team
that he hasn't beaten. If he beats him, he has
beaten all thirty two teams in his career. So this
is important to him. And I know of going against
a young Jordan Love up there in Green Bay, this
is going to be something that he wants to make
sure on a national stage that tell everybody he still

(02:02:34):
had this. So I promise you those conversations with Arthur
Smith are going to say, let's open up this offense.
Is I want to score points this week?

Speaker 5 (02:02:39):
Well, some of those Arthur Smith calls, I mean, they
did illustrate that this offense is progressing. But what did
you make of the sequence in calling there? I thought
that they got away from the run too quick.

Speaker 9 (02:02:51):
Yeah they did.

Speaker 21 (02:02:51):
And you know when they got to the point of
that fleet flicker, everybody got the call except Jalen Warren
and that's why Aaron ripped him in the manner like
what are you doing? And now you get you run
that play again. You already told Veigels that, hey, we
have this in our package this week, so you eliminated
play there. But up until that point, yeah, they had
running game going. So you take that sequence and then

(02:03:12):
come back on the next first down and you throw
that interception that you are trying to attempt to throw
it up all down the field of DK. I know
Aaron is going to take the plank. Hey, I threw
the ball. But to me, that was a poorly designed
play because you're bringing a crossing route to DK and
not naturally bring the safety over there. That all out
in the easy interception and I just changed the whole
momentum of the first time.

Speaker 3 (02:03:32):
I sure did.

Speaker 9 (02:03:33):
Charlie.

Speaker 5 (02:03:34):
We're nearing the next Batch Foundation huge event of course

I don't think you're a real parent until you've shredded
the bottom of your feet on a lego block and
a hot wheel. That's that's that's like, that's like when
that's like when Kui Ching King had to walk across
the hot coals and kung fu.

Speaker 7 (02:06:22):
You have to.

Speaker 6 (02:06:22):
That's your right as a parent. That's your right of passage.
You have to step on some stuff that cuts your
feet going through the bedroom at like five a m.
And then be quiet. So I'm like to get up.
So you have to hold that inner stream in. Yeah,
that's that's the one. That's the parents scream I'm talking
about right there.

Speaker 5 (02:06:40):
That has to be the quickest elicitation of the F bomb.
There is stepping on a lego.

Speaker 6 (02:06:49):
It rolls the the F in the F bomb rolls
from your foot to your mouth, and then you got
and then you've got to hold it.

Speaker 4 (02:07:03):
Brandy Bellman and the d v E Morning.

Speaker 5 (02:07:06):
Now, Billy Ardell Ladies and gentlemen, Bill CAUs, He's happy Tuesday.

Speaker 3 (02:07:13):
How are you.

Speaker 6 (02:07:15):
I'm doing pretty good, man, doing pretty good. I uh,
I'm getting uh, I gotta you know, I gonna give
you have a little We'll do a little throwback Tuesday.
Remember uh. In in the beginning days of all this,
I would tell you what I was auditioning for, and
then I'd report back as to whether it was a
win or I ate the bar. Yes, So I'm gonna

(02:07:37):
start doing that again, all right, So I'm still doing
it again. So so we got we got we got
to in play this week. One is for a new
series going up for high School Principal. Okay, that's not
you come a long way because Slucker. It was Slucker

(02:07:58):
Crawford Sluck. I'm doing. So we got high School Principal.
And then we got a big one. We got a
big audition today. There it's they're making the movie did
you see the naval movie Greyhound with Tom Hanks? Yeah, okay,
they are making the sequel to that, and it's about

(02:08:18):
that same captain who's on another mission and I'm auditioning
today for a part for a h He runs into
another naval captain who helps him, gives him some supplies
from his boat, who's just been through a very hairy
pass where there was a heavy battle, and he's kind
of informing him of what he's about to go through

(02:08:40):
and there's kind of a mutual respect club and then
he gives him the info on what to do as
he's going up to what to expect us he he
goes up through this path, okay, And so it's like
three or four scenes and it's with Hanks, which would
be unbelievable.

Speaker 18 (02:08:57):
Now.

Speaker 6 (02:08:57):
Look, it's a like a like I told will as
a as an actor when someone says it's a million
to one, you have to go all right, Well, then
that's me. We're going to go in. We're going to
go in. And uh And I got those two auditions
today and then I'll report back next Tuesday if I
got it or if I ate it. How about that?

Speaker 9 (02:09:18):
No?

Speaker 5 (02:09:18):
I love that, So what I would suggest, and uh,
I feel like I have a pretty good sense about
these kind of things.

Speaker 6 (02:09:25):
You know, Yeah, please man, let me know what I should.

Speaker 3 (02:09:28):
They approach this.

Speaker 5 (02:09:33):
If I understand correctly, you are a ship's captain who
is going to loan him some supplies, and you've already
been through the hell that he's about to jump into.

Speaker 6 (02:09:41):
And I'm and I'm giving him. I'm giving him the
four one one on what he would fall.

Speaker 3 (02:09:46):
Yeah, true, Bill, you just straight out of Pittsburgh.

Speaker 6 (02:09:48):
This up.

Speaker 5 (02:09:49):
This has got to be the.

Speaker 3 (02:09:53):
Cap Absolutely.

Speaker 6 (02:09:55):
You ain't gonna believe how many bombs.

Speaker 8 (02:10:00):
Listen from one gray hind captain to another, your ships, your.

Speaker 3 (02:10:07):
Gray high Huh, you're going where? You don't want to
go up there?

Speaker 7 (02:10:16):
You know?

Speaker 3 (02:10:16):
I want to go up there.

Speaker 6 (02:10:18):
I want to go up there. Listen. Hey, I's just
up there. I was just up there, right and I
look it, let me talk.

Speaker 3 (02:10:28):
You want to go up there?

Speaker 5 (02:10:32):
You know would be worse if you went down there.

Speaker 6 (02:10:34):
I wouldn't go up there.

Speaker 3 (02:10:35):
I definitely want to go down there.

Speaker 6 (02:10:37):
Listen. I just come down and you don't want to
go up there?

Speaker 3 (02:10:43):
All right?

Speaker 6 (02:10:44):
So I just said I give I thought we'd throw
it back to the old days and then see what happens.
Here's why I would love to have that part. Yes,
it would be very cool to be in a movie
with Tom Hanks. But beyond that, my dad was a
navy guy. If I can play to play a naval captain,
I'm so excited for this one. I actually went to

(02:11:07):
the Army Navy shurtplus store on Sunday and found a
naval captain's shirt so that I could walk in there
kind of looking the part. And I'm certainly wrinkled and gray.
And so we'll see what happens.

Speaker 22 (02:11:20):
Man.

Speaker 6 (02:11:21):
I'm excited. I'm excited. But hey, we're in the playoffs. Man,
We're in the playoffs in the area. Because it's we're

great old theater.

Speaker 3 (02:13:56):
Oh it's refurbished.

Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:13:57):
They put like ten or twelve million dollars into that.
It's a the State game, a bunch of money because
it's one of the original Warners. It's beautiful, really gorgeous.
It feels it.

Speaker 6 (02:14:05):
It feels it when you go in there, you get
the dust on your shoes.

Speaker 8 (02:14:08):
I like that, and I like this time of year
perfect up there, because the only times I've been up there,
I feel like it's the dead of winner and winners.

Speaker 3 (02:14:16):
With the wind and the ice, it's it's a real
hard place to be.

Speaker 9 (02:14:20):
Well.

Speaker 3 (02:14:21):
Sadly, it is going to be fall like weather up
there all week there. Bill, you're gonna that, ain't sad

Speaker 6 (02:15:16):
Dude, October is just let's just blow through this month. Nothing.
I just we could emit October. We could just go
September November. For me, just let's just roll right through it.

Speaker 1 (02:15:29):
There's I have some neighbors who are bypassing and they're like,
they're like, they want you to know they're not into it.
They just skipped and they went right to Christmas decorations.

Speaker 2 (02:15:39):
They do not care.

Speaker 6 (02:15:40):
Well, Yeah, we have a we have a we have
a November twenty third hard date in this house. I'm
not allowed to light anything up until then. That's what
I've been told. That's that's my I push. We got
four years four days earlier this year. We're just excited
about that. I got a little extra. I found a
new thing for my Christmas tree.

Speaker 3 (02:16:00):
To what's up?

Speaker 6 (02:16:01):
I was in Uh, I was in Georgia last week
and uh we went into one of those little country restaurants, Patty.
We went to visit Patty's dad last week. Dead little family,
an actual cracker barrel. No, no, no, no, I'm not
some one of those places that's been there since like
nineteen sixty two. Because I didn't see a green leaf

(02:16:23):
for three days. Everything, I mean it was fried fried
with a side of fried or gravy. It was like
I looked at the table. At one point it was
fried shrimp, fried pickles, French fries, hush puppies. I'm like,
I gotta get out of here. Man permea sweat. The
Red Hulk is about the bust out of me. Did

(02:16:44):
you get we know we had fried pickles. That was
one of the other pickles. And yeah, it's all good,
but I can't eat like that.

Speaker 9 (02:16:56):
No more.

Speaker 6 (02:16:56):
Got a tiny little storage tank. And then my brain
starts going two more wouldn't be bad. Shut up, shut off.
But I saw this cool little thing where it's like
a ladder where Santa is holding lights and he's a
little Santa and he and he goes up to the
top of the ladder and then he goes back down

(02:17:17):
the light and I'm going to put that on a tree.
It's coming here. She doesn't know I ordered that yet.

Speaker 5 (02:17:23):
Paying the check, you found a Greg Almond angel that
you were going to put on top.

Speaker 6 (02:17:30):
Of the track.

Speaker 5 (02:17:35):
Greg, Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 6 (02:17:37):
Yeah, we have a we have a We have a
tradition in this house at the holidays, everybody who comes
for Thanksgiving dinner has to hang an ornament and then
we buy an ornament everywhere we go. We have for
twenty five years, and our tree kind of tells our story,
which is pretty cool. Right, you know, I'm being sad,
but uh, you know, uh, Will has a place now

(02:18:01):
and so he's kind of started that little collection of
his ornaments for when he has a tree at his place.
So he's got We got one from Scotland, Ireland, England,
Paris when we're over there. So he's starting to build
his collection. But when I was down there, I saw
an ornament for him. There's gonna love it. It's literally
like a four inch Bob Ross ornament. It's just Bob Ross.

(02:18:23):
And he used to watch that with my dad all
the time because my dad was an artist. So I
can't wait to give that. That's awesome. A little bit
of tree, a little bit of green, cheer will cheer,
will create whatever you want. You want to. Put a
bird there, Put a bird there. I think we all
should be watching Bob Ross and mister Rogers n till
we come back to our sense.

Speaker 5 (02:18:41):
Well, you know, mister Rogers got his star on the
Pittsburgh Walk of Fame yesterday along with Love That a
Lot with Michael Keaton and Michael Keaton showed up that now, Billy,
I want you to hear this.

Speaker 6 (02:18:53):
Pittsburgh.

Speaker 5 (02:18:54):
He showed up and his whole family from around the
country flew in to be here with him. Like that's
how big of a deal he took that Like you
could totally understand, or maybe not understand, but you could
totally see if Michael Keaton was like, you know what, thanks, here's.

Speaker 3 (02:19:11):
A video and that's it, you know what I mean.

Speaker 5 (02:19:13):
But he came and made it a big deal and
had a celebration with his family and they walked him
on with this music. How awesome is that? And then

(02:19:38):
then he had this this not like.

Speaker 6 (02:19:40):
Was that like a local marching band.

Speaker 5 (02:19:42):
I think it was like members of the Filharmonic or something,
or the symphony Orchestra. It's so cool man, Yeah, he
thought so too.

Speaker 3 (02:19:49):
Check it out.

Speaker 13 (02:19:50):
Thank you very very much. This is ridiculously nice. It's
another first to actually U speaking first. I don't think
I've had words before, but I don't think I was
ever played on by a tuba before.

Speaker 14 (02:20:10):
God a boy, I don't think that's ever happened before.

Speaker 6 (02:20:16):
He is the coolest man talk about the right there,
right there, and mister Rogers and Keaton. That's two first
ballot Hall of famers right there, and everyone knows he's
started off working. Yeah, which is even cooler.

Speaker 3 (02:20:31):
That's just so great. Tell him the rest of the list.

Speaker 6 (02:20:34):
They also had Clemente and Carnegie.

Speaker 5 (02:20:37):
Wow, Nelly Bon Yeah, it was all about Jonas pretty good.
By the way, jonahs alretty pretty good. Uh, this is
the part I wanted to play about Keaton taking something
like this here.

Speaker 3 (02:20:50):
This is why, like and I mentioned this that you
have this same quality. And I think Joe Manganello does
as well.

Speaker 5 (02:20:57):
He loves sharing his celebrity with the city of Pittsburgh
and all the cool stuff that he does. He doesn't
guard it as something that is you know, in spite
of coming from Pittsburgh he had the success. He thinks
it has a lot to do with it.

Speaker 6 (02:21:13):
Thanks for coming everybody.

Speaker 3 (02:21:14):
You can see some.

Speaker 13 (02:21:15):
Friends, my family whom I love, and I'm more proud
of them than even getting this. And my brother Robert
came all the way from Florida. My brother Paul came
all the way from California. George came from the Rocks.

Speaker 3 (02:21:38):
It's down the river. It's like an effort took the good.

Speaker 6 (02:21:48):
That just makes me love him even more. It really
does that. And that's it. That's right. It's not in
spite of it's because of It's that, it's that work ethic,
that imagination. You know that that Keaton hits it down
the middle man.

Speaker 5 (02:22:02):
He just hits it middle I got to meet him
one time, and I was thrilled to do and then
I got one digital exchange with him because he was
they were working on bringing him on the show for
something specific and it didn't happen, and I was really
bummed out because I just thought, like, I would have
loved to have him on this platform, you know, because

(02:22:22):
I'm not sure if it was like this when he
left in the early eighties. Jimmy and Steve, I think
we're just kind of coming on and you know, I
think he is the like embodiment and you have this too, man,
like I said, like the idea that you appreciate Pittsburgh,
but you guys appreciate Pittsburgh for what it gave you,

(02:22:43):
you know. And I think that there are a lot
of people who left here and think that they made
it happen in spite of.

Speaker 6 (02:22:50):
Well, I think that those people are jack offs. Y.

Speaker 9 (02:22:54):
Yeah, and.

Speaker 5 (02:22:57):
I think there's differences though, But I think that some
people just don't get the experience in the city. Like
I don't know if I necessarily fault them. Their upbringing
could be different, the stress of like the civic pride
in their family might not have been as great, which
is hard to imagine at Pittsburgh.

Speaker 3 (02:23:11):
But that's also you know, possible, Bill.

Speaker 8 (02:23:14):
I also think that they might not totally get the
Pittsburgh humor like they might be Like Jeff Goldblum is
a great example.

Speaker 6 (02:23:23):
He loves Pittsburgh.

Speaker 8 (02:23:24):
He's a guy from Pittsburgh, but I don't know that
he gets the level of the Yinzer humor like Keaton does, like.

Speaker 5 (02:23:31):
Billy does, like there like it. They're more of like
the streets level of Pittsburgh.

Speaker 8 (02:23:38):
Yes, like if you come from the Rocks or if
you're coming from the alley in Swiss Fail like Billy.
You know, you get Pittsburgh all the way down to
its core.

Speaker 3 (02:23:50):
Right the most.

Speaker 6 (02:23:52):
You know, I'm I'm, I'm are Like.

Speaker 3 (02:23:56):
Now we lost your Bill, son of.

Speaker 2 (02:23:58):
A Zuomi Zummi zooms are freezing on us.

Speaker 5 (02:24:02):
Yeh, yeah, that's a shame. His his connection was going
off and on there for a second. Why don't we
do this conversation? Uh, he's so pissed it. Wait did
you get back on He's gonna swear. Oh, he's gonna
swear with the button.

Speaker 3 (02:24:13):
Yeah, remember that one.

Speaker 5 (02:24:16):
That one made it on. All right, looks like we're
we've got this the squinched up face now. So we're
gonna do a break and we'll let this get fixed
and we'll come back and we'll have more with Billy Gardell.

Speaker 3 (02:25:23):
Hey, it's Randy from the DV Morning Show. It's California.
He's back. We do have him, Yes, and.

Speaker 6 (02:25:29):
At that plugged in and I got aluminum foil on
the antenna. We're back.

Speaker 3 (02:25:34):
Did you want to finish the thought you had before
we went to break? Or do you not remember what
it was?

Speaker 6 (02:25:38):
Ca gets gone gone, I got hopping left. I walk
into rooms now and I go, why did I come
in here? I'm at that age and I just look
at Patty when I did that, and I go, you'll
put me someplace nice, right, I've been a good men.

Speaker 3 (02:25:52):
The biggest example of that for me is I send
I will send you the same meme.

Speaker 5 (02:25:57):
I don't care. I did it to these yesterday. I
I'm like, again, yeah, did you see this? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:26:06):
You said that to me?

Speaker 6 (02:26:07):
Well, look at it again, Well, I find it funny again.
So you're going to find.

Speaker 11 (02:26:13):
Mike's got a sports report for you now in DV
Sports brought to you by Bridgeville Clients. It's not what
the Steelers were doing or how they were calling it,
or even if the offense knew the defensive.

Speaker 3 (02:26:24):
Call that was the problem.

Speaker 11 (02:26:25):
In side, linebacker Patrick Queen maintained, it's how the Steelers
did what they were trying to do in Cincinnati that
was the issue. Are confident that the structure sound and
the method of communicating itself?

Speaker 22 (02:26:39):
Yeah, I think communication is good. I think and stuff
we could do better. I think it's different stuff that
we could do better. But at the end of the day,
you know we're gonna roll out there with what we
got and I got the most confidence in us to
go out there and make place. Do you think opposition
offenses know what you guys are in, They know what
a lot of people in the NFL, and you know
some some defense are knowing better than what we're doing,

(02:27:02):
even when the office knowing what they were on this.
So I think it's a thing in the NFL, like
certain coaches got certain ways they play, They called a
game and you know offices may know that, but at
the end of the day, wet we get paid to BLeague. Oh,
technique wise, assignment wise, whatever we could be better.

Speaker 3 (02:27:17):
Well, that sounded like he was agreeing with people.

Speaker 11 (02:27:20):
Well, but it's not like the Steelers are the only
team that people know what they're doing. I mean, Joe
Flacco's been around for one hundred years. He can tell
where the double coverage is and where the single coverage
is going to be right, and that's how he proceeds.
That's how Aaron Rodgers proceeds. That's how a lot of
teams proceed It's execution.

Speaker 9 (02:27:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (02:27:37):
The other side of that coin, that might even be
more alarming, is that they also know what the offenses
are doing. They see tendencies, they're doing the tape, you know,
they're doing their film study, and they couldn't stop it.
Anybody who was watching that game or in that stadium
or in the vicinity of Cincinnati on Thursday night knew
that it was a quick slant coming to Jamar Chase.

Speaker 11 (02:27:58):
And they did not have a safety come up and
fill the hole. When the Bengals went motion and they
had a tight end and a running back out in
the flat the Steelers sent two guys out there, one
of them being Patrick Queen. Now Ramsey and Elliott are
the deep safety. Yes, one of those guys has to
come up and fill the shallow cross it neither.

Speaker 3 (02:28:19):
One day wind open, wide open with the game on
the line.

Speaker 11 (02:28:23):
And then the other side of that is on the
play that was the dagger, the kind of lob fade
to t Higgins Jayalen.

Speaker 3 (02:28:31):
Ramsey's impressed.

Speaker 11 (02:28:32):
He's right with him all the way down and right
as the balls getting there, he kind of stumbles and
Higgins is able to body him and make the catch.

Speaker 6 (02:28:40):
They should they should have put our d on a
milk carton because they were missing.

Speaker 3 (02:28:49):
Delivery. He held it, he held it and then he
released it.

Speaker 11 (02:28:58):
It's possible it's another wake up a form like they
needed early in the year because.

Speaker 6 (02:29:03):
They've been banging on the door and housekeeping for about
five weeks. Now, how many calls we need?

Speaker 11 (02:29:09):
We if they if they'd got that last stop and
won the game, they might not be as willing to
address these things as they hopefully are.

Speaker 5 (02:29:18):
So that was the good out of this is that
it losing means you got to fix it. If you won,
if you're groping for a silver lining.

Speaker 6 (02:29:25):
That's it. And it felt like about the second quarter,
it was like, whoever has the ball last is going
to get this one. And I was really hoping that
the Bengals would just hold true to who the Bengals
are and blow that at the end of the game.

Speaker 3 (02:29:39):
But I hope for one Flacco interception.

Speaker 11 (02:29:43):
Second, I was, yeah, some splash play, which is kind
of what this defense has been. It's not number one
in total yards or anything, but it's been able to
make plays when it's had to. Thursday night, it was not,
and boy was glaring what they give up when they
don't get those turnovers or those splash plays. What the

(02:30:04):
Steelers are doing also came into question when offensive tackle
Broderick Jones leveled quarterback Aaron Rodgers in celebration of a
touchdown pass. Jones subsequently offered an explanation that just did
not hold water in fellow ot Troy Utano's estimation.

Speaker 6 (02:30:23):
Funny story.

Speaker 11 (02:30:24):
I don't want to put them on the glass the
way that Roderick described it on the field versus what
we seen on the video.

Speaker 6 (02:30:30):
It was so funny, you're making fun of it.

Speaker 3 (02:30:32):
So he saw it very differently in the moment. Yeah,
in the moment, obviously, motions are high. But I'll let
him tell you guys that.

Speaker 6 (02:30:42):
But it's just it wasn't what was pertained in the video.

Speaker 3 (02:30:47):
Did like t or pat Meyer or air In himself
issue anymore?

Speaker 6 (02:30:50):
Police, don't jump on back directed. Yeah it again, he might.
He might. I mean Roger's hillas going over there and
celebrating with Aaron.

Speaker 3 (02:31:01):
Is this funny. We'll see what happens.

Speaker 6 (02:31:03):
But it's pretty good tackle, wasn't it was? It was
he took him to the ground. Might have been a
hip drop.

Speaker 9 (02:31:07):
It might have been. He might.

Speaker 6 (02:31:11):
It might have been, must have been a hip drop.

Speaker 11 (02:31:16):
Jones, in fact, did not commit to not celebrating again
in such a fashion.

Speaker 6 (02:31:21):
Yeah, we're still joking about it. Yeah, he was a
little mad, but sorry. You know, it's football.

Speaker 9 (02:31:27):
It gets intense.

Speaker 6 (02:31:28):
No, but you know still no longer.

Speaker 3 (02:31:32):
It's just the energy that he brings and that I bring.
He told me, don't lose the fire, and I told
him the same.

Speaker 22 (02:31:36):
So you know, we shall see on Sunday after brows
another Touchdown't want to.

Speaker 6 (02:31:41):
Tackle in the game, Please don't, please don't. Yeah, don't
you imagine having to tell Jones like, hey, buddy, you
know when we're out there and everybody's yelling and cheering
and it's they're twelve, and then I throw something that ends. Yeah,

(02:32:01):
I'd like to be able to do that again. Could
you not land on me? Thanks so much. I appreciate you.

Speaker 11 (02:32:10):
It's gonna look like that's scene in The Replacements where
the Whitery kicker makes a real long field goal and
then Favros chasing him all over the field because he
wants to beat the crap out of him. Guy's serpentinating
all over the place. I mean, I don't know if
Far's got the wheels to stay ahead of him.

Speaker 8 (02:32:26):
Now he's gonna keep warning by his side to you know,
give him a chip block or something.

Speaker 11 (02:32:33):
Then Warren misses a check and he thinks he's supposed
to tackle him too.

Speaker 3 (02:32:36):
And I wonder if Project does that all the time,
if he likes the food he does it to the waiter.

Speaker 5 (02:32:46):
Jesus, stop celebrating like.

Speaker 6 (02:32:48):
That everywhere he goes. Next for the second time, people
start with hey buddy, after.

Speaker 5 (02:33:00):
Something, let me ask you something that was so cool
The way you congratulated our uncle at the end of
his marathon.

Speaker 3 (02:33:06):
But also.

Speaker 11 (02:33:09):
Rogers did star in a production of Mice and Men
at Georgia. Is the big guy, that's just Pisson. I've
seen a quarterback and again tell me about the Rabbits.
Linespeak to Bucks twenty four to nine, and the Seahawks
took care of the Texans twenty seven to nineteen in
Monday Night football. Last night, in Major League Baseball Game

(02:33:32):
seven of the American League Championship Series, the Blue Jays
get a three run home run from George Springer in
the bottom of the seventh and beat Seattle four to three.
The Mariners still haven't been to a World Series and
they're not going this year. Jays are going back for
the first time since nineteen ninety three.

Speaker 6 (02:33:50):
The Dodgers are waiting for him.

Speaker 11 (02:33:53):
The World Series begins on Friday in Toronto vlad Guerrero Junior.

Speaker 6 (02:33:58):
The ALCS MVT ten Monster ten for.

Speaker 11 (02:34:01):
Twenty six with three home runs, three doubles, and a
one point three to three tops. He was looked like
he was crying on the field while they were celebrating.
Of course, his dad played for the Exposed and he
was born in Canada and great day to be a Canadian.

Speaker 6 (02:34:18):
She's gonna be a good serish, gonna be a real good, serious,
goodish man.

Speaker 11 (02:34:22):
Big Dumper took it hard last night. Big Dumper was
in the on deck circle after homering.

Speaker 3 (02:34:30):
In that game solo hitcher Brian, who was being interviewed
and off camera, you can hear the sadness having gone
further than any other team in franchise history.

Speaker 6 (02:34:43):
Sounds like conned House is just screaming.

Speaker 3 (02:34:51):
That's tough.

Speaker 6 (02:34:51):
I thought they did.

Speaker 11 (02:34:53):
They did a tremendous job on TV last night of
just showing the celebration and the announcers kind of shut
up and they We're going back and forth between Blue
Jays hugging each other and just blank stars in the
dugout from Seattle.

Speaker 3 (02:35:05):
They couldn't even move. Oh so close, so close, and
yet so far.

Speaker 11 (02:35:11):
Penn's hosting up Vancouver tonight seven o'clock at the rink
and on your Penn flagship one oh five nine the next.

Speaker 5 (02:35:17):
Time, Did you guys take the Dodgers though, because Roderick
Jones went around and celebrated with everyone last night from
the Blue Jays, so most of those guys have some
blown out knees, only loud anybody.

Speaker 6 (02:35:31):
Roger got a minute.

Speaker 11 (02:35:33):
Penn's only loved three goals in third periods this year.
Only the Islanders in Avalanche with two each have done
better in third periods, so maybe they're starting to think
about getting it.

Speaker 5 (02:35:44):
Oh more with Billy Gardelle when we came back from
the commercial break here on DV if.

Speaker 17 (02:35:48):
You're drumming on the steering wheel that he's doing his job.
Chad Tyson rocks Pittsburgh weekday afternoons on DV. He also
has a reloading cut from the DV More Morning Show
and Sports News after Noons with Chad Tyson on DV.

Speaker 5 (02:36:05):
E five words, no one wants to hear you need
a new roof?

Speaker 6 (02:36:09):
What do you do?

Speaker 3 (02:36:10):
Who do you call?

Speaker 5 (02:36:11):
How are you going to pay for it? Well, hey,
it's ready from the DV Morning Now with us Live
in Los Angeles.

Speaker 23 (02:36:16):
Hi.

Speaker 5 (02:36:17):
Yeah, it's Steelers and Packers Sunday Night football here on
DVE and a twenty kickoff, which means four thirty. We
get the pregame going and Mike Pursuda will crank up
the network at six twenty and then of course Rob King,
Max Stark's Missy Matthews with the kickoff at eight twenty.

Speaker 3 (02:36:34):
Here on your radio Home of the Black and Gold
dv E.

Speaker 5 (02:36:37):
Now, Abby, we got chatting with Billy there and didn't
get through a couple of items on your list there.

Speaker 21 (02:36:43):
What do you got for us?

Speaker 1 (02:36:44):
You know, Billy, whenever we chat sometimes when we get
into our own discussions here, the phrase that we like
to use when things are not for us, we always say,
it's not for moms.

Speaker 3 (02:36:56):
Yeah, for moms. That's not that's not for moms.

Speaker 6 (02:36:58):
Just how my mom.

Speaker 3 (02:36:59):
That's how my mom discribed I'm listening to this radio show.
It's not for moms.

Speaker 6 (02:37:04):
It's not for moms.

Speaker 1 (02:37:06):
So I stumbled upon this uh list here because people
were listening things online that they.

Speaker 2 (02:37:12):
Just don't get the appeal of at all.

Speaker 1 (02:37:15):
There are some things that we could say are like
universally awesome, like you know, tacos or puppies or coffee,
But there are just some things that maybe not for moms,
like we just don't get it.

Speaker 2 (02:37:28):
I will list them off for you. Riff is necessary
social places where the music's too loud.

Speaker 6 (02:37:35):
Oh, I got I got one for you. We just
I just took Patty and we went, you know, we'd
go one our little date nights because we're empty nesters now,
which is really sweet. And I wanted to see the
movie tron Aries, right, I botch one about stop it,
the dude's going to show up, and if the dude

(02:37:56):
shows up, ibide. But we're in there and about four
minutes and Patty says the most mom thing ever. She
looks at me, She well, this is just unbearably loud.
Do you think I could go ask them to turn
it down in the movie? Please just sit here? Please
just sit here with me, get through this spaceship please

(02:38:17):
without embarrassing us.

Speaker 8 (02:38:19):
Even if you think that that's a question you could ask.
That's how you know you're getting old. That's supermom right
there can your turning day. They're not worrying about people
safety and they're hearing I take, She's right, I take.
I take ear plugs to every movie because that's a solution.
For ten years, I've been taking ear pluge to the movies.

Speaker 6 (02:38:39):
Was it was loud. It was loud, even for me,
and I'm a loud human.

Speaker 3 (02:38:42):
They play them way wanted to go.

Speaker 6 (02:38:44):
The fact she wanted to go ask them to turn
it down because she was worried about the people in
the theater.

Speaker 5 (02:38:49):
And they're hearing her. Well, you know there's a decibel
app you can get. I have it on my phone
that you can tell you click on her. It tells
you how loud the room you're in. Oh really, she
could have done that and just taking it right to
the manager and been like, I don't think we need
to be accusing.

Speaker 3 (02:39:05):
Tron that guy.

Speaker 11 (02:39:06):
Listen.

Speaker 6 (02:39:07):
If she had a cornered that manager, he would have
heard about how loud it is, how dangerous noise is
for the inner ear, how the inner ear works, how
it affects you, and how it deteriorates your hearing later
in the future. She'd ad it all. Dude, you never
want to argue with my wife. She's like she could
have been an attorney. Like her blood pressure don't go
up or down. She just keeps coming.

Speaker 3 (02:39:29):
She keeps coming.

Speaker 13 (02:39:31):
You can't.

Speaker 6 (02:39:34):
I steal a line from my father all the time
when his wife wild get just laying the facts on
him about where he was wrong. He would go, all right,
bring me to confession, get the chief. I'll sign it.
Whatever I tell you, whatever you want to know, I
did it.

Speaker 9 (02:39:51):
I did it.

Speaker 6 (02:39:52):
I'll sign it. What do you want? What's going to
make this stop? I'll sign I did it all?

Speaker 3 (02:39:58):
What else?

Speaker 6 (02:39:58):
Tabby? What else?

Speaker 2 (02:40:00):
Another thing that makes the list here worshiping a celebrity.

Speaker 6 (02:40:05):
Uh yeah, wait, it's not a mom thing for moms.

Speaker 18 (02:40:11):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (02:40:12):
To the people that like worship influencers even.

Speaker 3 (02:40:17):
Oh, that that's particularly problematic.

Speaker 6 (02:40:20):
I think you have very problematic, very unimpressed, very unimpressed.
But if there's a different way that you can organize
the house or Marie condo, that that's high level stuff.
But movie starts, not not if there's an efficiency person,
that's who's getting idolized. She got more systems in this house,

(02:40:42):
and dom Capers, I understand. I mean it's when I'm
out of place. I just hear her in the kitchen
over over. I'm glad you laughed at that, because I'm
probably gonna get why were you getting over over?

Speaker 3 (02:41:00):
I'm down with that decibel app on her phone.

Speaker 6 (02:41:06):
She's gonna jam the decimal app in my face. This
is what you sounded like.

Speaker 3 (02:41:10):
Dom Capers is still coaching.

Speaker 7 (02:41:13):
He is.

Speaker 6 (02:41:14):
Yes, he's a defensive uh like, not the coordinator, but
the what's he's a defensive assistants assistant for the Panthers. Yeah,
still doing it, still doing it, you guys.

Speaker 2 (02:41:27):
Aren't gonna like this one on the list. Sports betting
made the list.

Speaker 6 (02:41:32):
Yeah, I don't think Patty bets, but she does come
in and check my temperature and she's like, so, how
are we doing today? How are we doing today?

Speaker 3 (02:41:41):
Which team do we want to win?

Speaker 9 (02:41:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (02:41:44):
Sometimes she's say, what do you need in this one? Yeah?
And then Patty has magic feet. When she's sitting next
to me, there's an offensive foot and there's a defensive foot,
and I grab one of him when I need a
score or stop when you do it? Special powers, special powers,

(02:42:06):
pull ring or what. She just sits next to me,
she got little feets. I grab her foot that you
gotta make it weird. That's because Mike does that.

Speaker 5 (02:42:17):
You know I would have gone rabbit's foot, went Ryan, Yeah,
we were, We just didn't say it.

Speaker 6 (02:42:26):
Trying to tell you God, those are the two extremes
in life. You either believe in the rabbit's foot or
wreck Ryan.

Speaker 1 (02:42:36):
People said that they do not understand competitive eating competitions.

Speaker 6 (02:42:41):
No, that's the hot Dog contest. Every year, I'll put
that on for five minutes and that's just horrible.

Speaker 3 (02:42:47):
Have you ever watched it? The whole thing?

Speaker 5 (02:42:49):
When this is over, I can make about five. I
never Yeah, I kind of look at it for a
little bit, like saw I meet twenty? That was enough
hot dogs? It's insane.

Speaker 2 (02:43:00):
Conversely, will you watch like the hot Ones?

Speaker 9 (02:43:04):
Yeah? I like that.

Speaker 6 (02:43:05):
I like it because the chicken is that the chicken.
That's a funny to watch someone start heating up. That
is funny.

Speaker 2 (02:43:12):
Do you think you could do it? Billy Gardell?

Speaker 6 (02:43:14):
I couldn't get your conversation. The old Billy guard Dell could.
The new one could not know that that heat would
put me right over at Saint Joseph's emergency room, mysoph. Yeah,
it would look. It would look like you remember when
when the blood from the alien dripped and it melted
through nine floors of the spaceship. I'll be done. That's ship.

(02:43:41):
They'd rolled me out and I'd give the thumbs up
like I was. That's it. I'll be done.

Speaker 2 (02:43:48):
This is timely for this time of year. Pumpkin spice.

Speaker 6 (02:43:54):
I'm a fan. Yeah, I'm a fan. I love it.
As soon as it hits the shelves, I cracker, you
know what I did?

Speaker 9 (02:44:00):
What do you like?

Speaker 6 (02:44:01):
What is it? The creamer, the muffins, the twinkies, the
toilet paper. What I like? I like, No, I like
the coffee, the latte, the pumpkin spice latte. When that
hits and uh, I just got such a perk man.
I don't realize because I don't go through all your
rewards you can get for your sky mile numbers or
whatever shot somebody showed. I don't even dude, and I

(02:44:23):
got like a million eight miles on Delta. I got
a million six on America. There should I should have
a plane.

Speaker 3 (02:44:29):
With my name on it, but that would be cool
if you can catch it in For.

Speaker 6 (02:44:34):
That, I go up my app because well, thank you
for flying cauzy. You can't shit down now. But I
was looking through my perks right and I had a
Starbucks thing where you could you could like you could ship. Yeah, yeah,

(02:44:56):
I had like nine of them. So I I loaded
the app with a little help. Yes, but I got
the app and then Patty linked it for me, and
then I hit the flood button. Dude, let me give
you the perspective. You can get a pumpkin spice Lotte
for two hundred Starbucks stars. I got twelve thousand, so

(02:45:18):
I ain't paying for coffee again for about five years.

Speaker 22 (02:45:21):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (02:45:23):
I'm coffee's on the house on these you got, like
the Starbucks four oh one K. How long you've been
building that up? I had no idea. It was just
one of the perks, and they keep building and building,
and then I found a cash so yeah, I'm jam.
I got coffee for everybody. Well, the next time I
see in, how ready to.

Speaker 3 (02:45:40):
Get a franchise?

Speaker 6 (02:45:41):
When can you.

Speaker 3 (02:45:44):
Get a whole store?

Speaker 18 (02:45:46):
You know what?

Speaker 5 (02:45:46):
I'm the captain now?

Speaker 6 (02:45:48):
Yeah, yeah, if I had a Starbucks franchise, I tell everybody,
turn that heat down just two notches and let's let's
let's not let's not roast that coffee so much. Let
let's yeah, let's lighten that up just a little bit.

Speaker 2 (02:46:02):
I don't do the pumpkin spice loattes like. That's not
my jam.

Speaker 6 (02:46:06):
It's not a mom thing.

Speaker 2 (02:46:07):
It's not for moms.

Speaker 1 (02:46:08):
But I'll tell you what, I've been seeing a lot
of pumpkin cheesecakes, a lot of pumpkin.

Speaker 6 (02:46:13):
I'd be telling the truth.

Speaker 2 (02:46:16):
Catching your eye, Oh, I've been just destroying it, Billy.

Speaker 1 (02:46:21):
If it's on the menu, it's catching one of the
other things that was on the list. I'm going to
actually put two of these things together either watching someone
else online play a video game.

Speaker 3 (02:46:41):
I don't understand that at all.

Speaker 6 (02:46:42):
I have trouble with this. Okay, I'm just going to
tell you when me and my man, Joey O'Connell from
Penhills moved to California, we drove out here with whatever
the car would hold. Two grand for one month's rent
and groceries and that's it. That was our We bet
everything and and we had no money for cable. Back then,
they had uh it was called Sega Genesis, and they

(02:47:07):
had a game called Techmobowl. Hell yeah. And and me
and Joey we'd be broke sitting in La trying to
figure out what to do in our little apartment, and
joe came up with the idea, let's put a game on.
I said, what are you talking about? So he sets
up the Techmobil. We picked two teams and we let
we let it auto play, right yeah. And the funniest

(02:47:32):
one was my manager, Chris, my original manager, would would
come out and he would, you know, fill our fridge
with food and get us rolling him. But one day
he flies in, right and he opens the door and
me and O'Connell are sitting on the couch chips watching
an automated Techmo Bowl game, and we were calling the

(02:47:55):
game as we were watching it. You know, we're yeah,
and now kids make a zillion dollars doing doing that. Yeah, man,
you used to do it live like you would be
you know, your friend's house.

Speaker 8 (02:48:14):
They only have one controller, so they're playing Mario Brothers
and you're just sitting on the bed watching or yeah,
come on, yeah, you got to make them go fast,
and then you got to make them stop.

Speaker 6 (02:48:26):
On that little you got to double jump back, double jump.

Speaker 3 (02:48:29):
All the backseat driving that would go on. It's just ridiculous.

Speaker 8 (02:48:33):
But now, like I I actually understand. I'm not I'm
not into it, but I understand that the games now
are so high leveled and multifaceted that to watch somebody
play it at a high level, to be able to
do all of the stuff is probably exciting for these kids.
Like if I was what I now, i'd probably watch

(02:48:54):
that stuff.

Speaker 6 (02:48:54):
Here here's what I do. I just I don't play
many games. I only play I think it's called third person,
which means you could see your guy. I'm from the eighties,
I got to see my guy. I don't want to
I don't want the two arms in front of me
bouncing up and down. I want to see my gunny
off the wall, get into a building, flip a switch.
I want to see him do all that. So there's
not many games I play because they're not like that.

(02:49:16):
But every now and then one comes along and I
love it. And I'm a big, big Indiana Jones fan.
So there's a new Indiana Jones game on. So I'm
at this point where I got to swim through this lake.
The giant snake keeps eating me before I get to
the shore. And so what what I do is when
Will comes home from the break, if I'm at a

(02:49:36):
level there where it's too hard to get by, I
just say, hey, handle this for me.

Speaker 22 (02:49:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:49:41):
Will sits down and then blows it out. I told
that I've been I've been trying to beat this snake
for about four days. And I told him last night
my son gets here, he's going to wear you like
a belt.

Speaker 9 (02:49:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (02:49:53):
He's like I was alone. I was completely alone with
that conversation.

Speaker 3 (02:49:58):
He's a mercenary for you. He's like you blackwater.

Speaker 6 (02:50:04):
Che coat. Deal with this guy for me.

It's time for the Steelers Daily Report on DVE, brought
to you by Callie Ante, Pizza Draft Holes, three time
World Pizza Champions, and Steelers Pro Shop. Get it direct
from the team at shop dot Steelers dot com. Here's
Tom Opperman.

Speaker 16 (02:51:13):
The Steelers were trying to bounce back from their loss
to Cincinnati last Thursday night by welcoming the Green Bay
Packers to.

Speaker 3 (02:51:18):
Town for Sunday Night football. One thing to monitor for Steelers.

Speaker 16 (02:51:21):
Fans is the week progresses as the status of wide
receiver Calvin Austin Third, who's been sidelined for the past
couple of games with a shoulder injury suffered during the
team's Week four triumph against the Vikings in Dublin. Austin's
absence has been felt in the Steelers offense. Over the
two games without Austin, Steelers wide receivers not named DK
Metcalf received just four total targets from quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

(02:51:41):
Austin has had seventeen targets over the four games that
he's played in this year, catching ten of those for
one hundred and thirty nine yards in two touchdowns. After
seeing the tight ends emerge in the passing game last week,
thanks in large part to one hundred and eleven receiving
yards and two touchdowns by Pat Friarmouth, adding Austin back
into the mix should only enhance the Steelers passing attack
against the Packers d defense that comes in allowing just
twenty point eight points per game.

Speaker 3 (02:52:03):
Tenth fewest in the NFL.

Speaker 16 (02:52:04):
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin is sent to address the
media this afternoon for his weekly press conference and will
hopefully shed more light on Calvin Austin the third status.

Speaker 3 (02:52:12):
I'm Tom upfroman with the Steelers report.

Speaker 15 (02:52:16):
The Black and Gold faith will always travel well to
see the team on the road. And now Caliente and
