whole pool Parrie. All right, good deal. They's a special
guest dropping and we shall see what time is that show?
Speaker 1 (01:16):
I believe seven o'clock. All right, good deal. Abby has
a quick news update before we get to pick sex,
What's up?
Speaker 3 (01:21):
And is?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
This hour?
Speaker 5 (01:21):
Brought to you by Window Nation. Breezy and rainy today
a high of fifty two. If you were hoping to
throw a Halloween rager in a rented mansion this weekend,
you might want to check your reservation because Airbnb's party
police are already on the case. For the fifth year running,
Airbnb is deploying its advanced anti party technology across the
(01:42):
US and Canada to keep things civilized during spooky season.
The company's message is clear, ghost goblins and gules are welcome,
but unauthorized parties not so much. This year's crackdown is
powered by Airbnb's most aggressive detection system yet, using AI
to identify bookings as they're made.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
This sounds like the anti graffiti technology they had in
The Naked Gun.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
The algorithm evaluates details like how far a guest lives
from the rental, how long they're staying, what kind of
property it is, and when they booked it. If a
reservation looks suspicious, say a one night's day at a
big suburban home booked by somebody who lives five minutes away,
the system can block it automatically.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
And it does work. Last Halloween alone, Airbnb.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
Says it prevented over forty four thousand potential party bookings.
I don't know how they know that these things were parties,
but the company has seen similar results on other big holidays,
including New Year's Eve, Memorial Day, and the fourth of July.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
I don't understand why people still do air and airbnb
for any other reason than to have a party, because
it's just not cost prohibitive, any like going to.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
Hotels as it's not cheap enough to justify.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Right, Yeah, going to tells used to be cost prohabitive,
and now Airbnbs the fees they throw on all of
this stuff are ridiculous. And not to mention, there are
a million stories of the temporary landlords being completely obtrusive
while you're staying there.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
You know that doesn't happen to you at a hotel.
I've never stated Airbnb and I travel everywhere. I've done
vrbos in the past and those have always worked out fine.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
What's the difference?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
I think they just it's like think uber Lyft, you
know what I mean, Like the house one. They're usually
vacation homes, so you get them like in Florida in
places like that.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
And it just has a little more like.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
The quality control I think, although, and it may have
slipped through the years because I haven't used it as
much lately, but you know, ten fifteen years ago, I
used it all the time. But now the fees get
racked up so much. You look at the price, you're like, hey,
that's not bad if six of us, let's split that.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
And then you hit like, okay, let's let's book it.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
And then all of a sudden you're like, wait, where'd
that eight hundred extra dollars come from?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Exactly?
Speaker 5 (04:04):
I did that on a vacation I don't know how
many years ago now where I was like, I'm like,
this is going to be totally affordable. And then when
I was getting ready to check out, I was like,
one thousand dollars in taxes like that, that's.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
The whole vacation. Here you go, we're on Ticketmaster's running Airbnb.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Now.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Yeah, yeah, the codsome fee, a service fee. Hey you
booked a Z fee. There's a fee for everything.
Speaker 6 (04:25):
It does seem like all these entrepreneurs that have popped
up over the last decade or so, like we bought
ten properties and now we flip them and turn them
into moneymakers for us every week. But you go in
there and everything is either falling apart or is broken
and taped together underneath. And I think people are just
getting hip to it, being like this stinks.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Yeah, so many airbnbs are just particle board to me. Yes,
you know, it's like nothing's real anymore.
Speaker 6 (04:55):
It's a flip with like the lowest quality finishes you
could possibly have.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Right, and there's a camera in the bathroom. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
In a lot of towns like New Orleans, there's legislation
to get rid of all this stuff because they think
it's ruining, it's hollowing out these kinds of cities Nashville,
New Orleans, and it's all landlords and in like Ski
Town's Breckinridge Vail, stuff like that, where it's just all
second home owners that it's not their primary residence and
it exists to be a hotel for that person. And
(05:26):
now they're taxing the bejesus out of them in some
of those counties so that people can't afford to keep
them unless they literally.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Were housed, you know, three hundred and sixty five days
a year.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
And New Orleans has really suffered from it, and because
they're like, this is we're losing our city. It's just
all these venture capitalists are buying every home that goes
up for sale. They just buy it, renovate it crapply
like you said, and then throw it out there. And
it's not a family residence. It's just existing to be
(05:57):
a temporary residence. So they're changing the zoning down there
to stop that from happening. I do Airbnb every year
for the Frozen four.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
It's great. Okay, well then good experiences. Can you forget
everything we've said?
Speaker 7 (06:08):
We get like five or six guys, everybody get a
big place, everybody gets around.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
That's great.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
Yeah, we haven't go into this text thing you're talking about.
I mean, it's the cost is better than a hotel,
and it's more comfortable. Can you have hotel sex and
the airbnb? Well it depends.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, you're with I guess and you're doing it. It depends, yes.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
I mean that's the you know, is there extra towels
at the airbnb? How messy are you getting?
Speaker 8 (06:37):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Hey, yeah, all right, you don't know me.
Speaker 7 (06:43):
Man.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
It's time for our pick six segment.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Were Bill and I give you six games to choose
from this weekend that we think are absolutely definitely maybe
gonna win. And let's start it with the Ravens at
the Dolphin.
Speaker 6 (06:56):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
By the way, Pick six is brought to you by
Bett Parks Sports Book and casino app Family Problem Call
one eight Hunter Gambler. Start with the Ravens at the
Dolphins plus seven and a half.
Speaker 6 (07:04):
Mike McDaniel's seat is so hot that all of South
Florida smells like ass hair right now, Tuas said, the
Dolphins just need to clean up the little things, yeah,
like tackling, blocking, running, passing, kicking, showing up to players
only meetings, winning football games, and all that burnt ass hair.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
The Ravens, on the other hand, just need to clean up.
Speaker 6 (07:28):
The practice participation reports because they have Lamar Jackson listed
as fully undead this week and he already looks like
zombie Michael Jackson in the Thriller video. So the Finns
better lock the doors when it gets close to midnight.
The Dolphins are one to oher after to a tongue
of Victrola threw his teammates under the bus and disrespected
(07:49):
a coach. So to keep that streak going this week,
he's making sure all Dolphins fans know they're white trash
and the owner.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Is a cheapskate, and the Ravens are one and oh
after them.
Speaker 6 (08:00):
Cleaned out the video games, the ping pong tables in
the cornhole. So to keep that streak going, he's announced
that the Ray Lewis statue will travel with the team
until the Ravens defense can obstruct something. Lamar is undead,
and so are the Ravens. Take the rat Birds in
a thriller tonight.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
That's the Bears at the Bengals plus two. How are
things going for the Bears? Well, they're less than a
field goal favorite over an under five hundred team that's
starting a forty year old quarterback who eats at Applebee's
by himself, and they're fresh off a home defeat to
the previously zero to seven New York Jets. Safe to say,
Ben Johnson is still always away from restoring their Monsters
(08:39):
of the Midway reputation more like the Mama Luke so
to Midway. At this point, Caleb Williams has struggled with
more than just what nail polish to wear to lou Malinatis.
He doesn't have exactly a deep dish of receivers to
choose from this weekend. Two of his top wideouts have
been ruled out loser Burden, the third in Alamedae Zakias,
God bless you. You wonder without those guys, who's Caleb
(09:03):
gonna wildly overthrow to this weeknad.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
They did sign safety CJ.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Gardner Johnson yesterday to trap shorp the defensive backfield and
reunite him with former decoordinator Dennis Allen in Chicago, so now.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
He's a Bear. But the last time CJ.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Gardner Johnson played on Soldier Field with the Saints, Bears,
wide receiver Javon Whims tried to rip CJ's gold chain
off from around his neck and then punched him in
the head.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Thankfully.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Now, the only way you get treated like that in
Chicago is if an Ice agent thinks you look awfully
tan for this time of year. And acquiring Gardner Johnson obviously,
Ben Johnson and Ryan Poles think there's nothing wrong with
the Bears that a few unsportsmanlike conduct penalties can't fix.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
This is, of course, if a big if.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
If Flacco's good to go this weekend, which it's looking
like it might not be good for Joe Flacco. He's
officially got an ac joint sprain, which incidentally, that was
my cousin's rapper name. But for Flacco it means he
might not be able to go on Sunday, which leaves
the Bengals in the ink hands of Jake Browning, which
on Halloween weekend is the scariest ordeal conceivable.
Speaker 9 (10:07):
This weekend in the Queen's City, Prepare for the horror
of the most in nip quarterbacking you've ever seen. This Sunday,
Prepare for the Browning On November two, Prepare to ride the.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Escaloosa straight into the Browning. Hey, but who knows. I mean, look,
Joe is an old guy, you know.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
I mean, Flacco's like old guy's joints are always hurting
with changes in barometric pressure. Maybe his sore shoulder is
just a sign it it's gonna rain on Sunday, and
maybe he'll play. But one thing's for sure. If Caleb
can't get it together against this sloppy d, the Windy
City is gonna let him know just how much he blows.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
When he gets on. Flaco's arm is gonna fall off.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Take the Bears next Panthers at the Packers minus thirteen
and a half.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
Jordan Love came into Pittsburgh last week and cucked our QB.
I haven't seen that many Love completions since Caligula. And
now the Packers get the Carolina Panthers, who just shut
their eye out last week with the red rifle. Andy
Dalton took more sacks than a sauna bench at La Fitness.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
They scored zero.
Speaker 6 (11:26):
The only consistent thing in Carolina this year has been
the Punters cardio. Meanwhile, Jordan Love already looks like Bart
Starr Dipton Aaron Rodgers, and maybe it was just the
Steelers defense making him look like Farv in The Wrangler.
Jean's prime just picking apart soft zones in a local park.
Either way, he's throwing with confidence, and when you're facing
(11:47):
the Panthers, that confidence usually turns into forty burgers. If
he throws for less than three hundred yards and three
touchdowns this week, it's only because he feels bad.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
For them and his arm gets sore.
Speaker 6 (11:58):
The Panthers defense isn't it's just tired, and they're not great,
but they're relatable. They don't lay down, but you can
tell they want to they show more fight after the
game because it's over.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Don't snooze. Take the Packers.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Next, Niners at the Giants plus two and a half
forty nine Ers make the cross country track to METLFE Stadium,
where they take on the New York Giants, who are
without superstar running back Cam.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Scattaboo scatta boo. Can you do that fun angle?
Speaker 3 (12:29):
No, he cannot because his angle is mangled worse than
Freddie Mercury mangled his mouth retainer.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Sure did. Dable ran into the blue tent and raised
Holy hell.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Last month when Dart was concussed after watching Russ play
only one down, an understandable reaction. Quite honestly, imagine how
that fell for Russell Wilson, the head coach, completely willing
to take a one hundred thousand dollars fine to rush
his concussed quarterback out on the field screaming, and anybody
would listen to get that incompetently positive half leet off
the field. Kind of hard to post go Big Blue
(13:01):
on Instagram after the game which everyone saw your coach
flip over a tent leg he was a female worker
after a hurricane, trying to get you out of there,
seeing as though he has Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary
still to tote the rock. He probably Dable probably refrained
from barging into the o R when Scataboo's Boo boo
was being fixed. Of course, that probably didn't stop Jackson
(13:21):
Dart from headbutting the surgeon for good luck.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
What's up with these idiots in the head budding?
Speaker 3 (13:25):
I mean, Dart's not as bad with it as Scataboo,
but like by the time that guy's forty, Skataboo's gonna
have a smaller vocabulary than Coco the Gorilla. Brian's Dables
hilarious though. I like when he gets all mad and
red faced on the sidelines. He looks like an infected
big Toe wearing a Giants hoodie. See, the injuries are
piling up for New York because the Giants are already
(13:46):
living on a deserted island.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
They got no neighbors.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Molik the Unique Freak is out along with Skataboo, and
it won't matter that San Francisco hasn't seen this many
injuries on their side since the earthquake of NIGHTEO six.
Then Niners are without their own injury issues. Because aren't
without their own injury issues, rather because brock Purdy is
limited in practice. So you might see the return of
(14:10):
the Mac behind center for forty nine ers.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Hey mac Jones is four and two as a starter.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
And with all those people hurt that the g Man have,
all they got to do is hand it to McCaffrey
and let Christian know his time, his cub and it's
time for this Christian to perform some conversions of the
first down variety. This one's a layup. Don't sweat the
one pm East Coast kickoff with the cross country travel
from San Francisco.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
The Niners ain't leaving their heart there.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Take the Niners next, Cardinals at the Cowboys minus two
and a half.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
The over might hit during the coin flip on this game.
These teams are both sloppier than Honey Boo Boo eating
a man witch on the shaky floor on Noah's Ark.
Jonathan jam Is incited this presser this week that the
Cardinals just need to execute better. That's a fun word
choice for a guy that assault as players. He added,
(15:01):
we just need to make sure we're taking a stab
in the dark and not giving ourselves a puncher's chance,
and then he broke one of the reporter's fingers and
bit a baby. But the coach can't hit what he
can't reach, and Kyler Murray would just start biting his ankles. Anyways,
the QB in the cupboard is back this week and
looking to fly around out there like a dingleberry on
(15:24):
a dune Buggy. Dak was whack in Denver last week
and the defense looked like it smoked crack and sat
on its nutsack. George Pickens said the goal this season
was to go undefeated. He said that last week they're
three four and one. They lost the first game of
the season. Being bad at math actually does add up
(15:46):
for George. I could see him quitting on equations and
fistfighting his teacher down the hallway during the SATs and
jump punching the blackboard. Don't worry about the math in
this one. Just take the over and the cards with
the points next.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
The main event colts at the Steelers Steelers plus three
Halloween weekend. Nothing scary to me at the moment, and
contemplating what might happen with Daniel Indiana Jones in the
Temple of Rooney, Danny Dives is on a roll of quarters,
and after thirty two of them so far this year,
the Colts are seven and one and Jones has the
third most passing yards in the league. The only person
(16:25):
that moving to Indianapolis has worked out better for is
Pat McAfee and the person that sells tank toks to
Pat McAfee. The Colts Horseshoe finally stopped letting all the
luck run out for the first time since well the
luck ran out andrew luck to be precise, and fans
are now actually going to the games at Lucas Oil
Stadium dressed as Indiana Jones. Contribute to Daniel's success at quarterback,
(16:48):
I'd suggest trying to counter it by dressing up as
Indiana Jones's nemesis this weekend.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
From Raiders of the Lost Ark Quest.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
We don't need any more Nazis running around these days,
and it's not just Danny that the Steelers have to
make Room four. That's a nineteen fifty three reference out
there for all of the grandfathers who are listening.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
To and the kids who love the Nike at night.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
I'm not sure our secondary can keep up with the Jones' passes.
But also Jonathan Taylor is running his way to the
league MVP status. He's got fourteen touchdowns this year, and
with the Steelers run defense being more unpredictable than Kanye
West after shotgunning a Celsius, he could run for a
dozen more at Acroture on Sunday, That is, if the
shoddy field literally isn't turned to quicksand by now, seriously,
(17:29):
the farman Anhill's out there fix the field.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
It's an embarrassment.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
And what's the first thing Mike Tomlin complains about in
his weekly pressed slot feeding on Tuesday after Jordan ludd
Love torches them for three hundred and sixty yards, what's
his beef?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
The offense kicked too many field goals. You're the one
that wanted to kick um physician. Heal thyself fourth to
three from the thirty two.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Jalen Warren's averaging seven a carry, and you trot bas
out there to take his chances on that cow pasture
with a fadning pit logo that got airbrushed over with
a Steeler's logo like it's one of Graham Plattner's accidental
Nazi tattoos.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Oops, now it's a Calvin Hobbs. Sorry, you could have
gone for a dare coach.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Blaming the offense for the loss of the Packers is
like Sidney Sweeney blaming her bad reviews on her enormous cans.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
That's the only thing making people think it might be
worth watching.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
And how does Tarrell Austin still have a job after
the way last season ended? Simply bringing him back at
all for the season is like trusting Chauncey Billups to
run your poker game fairly. You're guaranteed not to go
home a winner. Steelers are home dogs for the second
week in a row. And you guys, now people want
to get rid of Renegade.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Trell Austin made people hate Renegade? How could you do
that to Dennis de Young? Tarrell that being said, I
really like us on Sunday, I mean I do.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
The Cults are due for a loss, and the Steelers
are annoying and win the games they have no business
winning and lose the games.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
They should get people fired for losy, but.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Nobody gets fired, and the vicious cycle goes on and on,
and we'll probably go into Week fourteen and have to
beat the Dolphins to get into the season, and we'll
lose that one by thirty because the standard is substandard,
but it is predictable, which is why I don't just
like the Stealers.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
I love the Black and Gold on Sunday, Baby, take
the money.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Line and watch Rogers turn Rowan Wilson into Jerry Rice.
Take the Black and Gold, and that's it for us.
There's six that will probably most guaranteed, maybe we likely win.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
You're gonna die up Bear Hill, You damn right. I'm
gonna die on that bear Sel. They're gonna be good.
You are gonna die on that bear Shill.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
We almost did last Sunday, that's for sure. Abby will
have your news when we come back at the top
of the hour, but you'll be joined by Billy Gardell
when you have it. He'll be live in studio with us.
More with Joe Bartnick and Big Cat joins us at
eight forty five.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
The answer is always yes. When you build them menu,
you know what, that would make my day so much better.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
We all request the Electric Lunch week days at noon
on DV from the Bridgeville Appliance Weather Center, known for.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Its DV sports.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
All Right, our buddy Joe Barnick, he's live in studio
with us this morning in anticipation of tonight's Joe Barnick
and Friends show at the Improv at the Waterfront, which
will include friends of the show Jeff Conkle, also Mike Sidell,
also Marcus Cox and a few other Surprise Poppins.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Surprise Poppins. That's gonna be a great show to be fun.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
Is Widey still in town? I saw he was here
for the game? Oh he was, yeah, for the Steelers game.
Recently married Ma Watney.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Yeah, I don't know. Get him on stage. I would
love to have to give him a call. Second marriage
for no, first, that's his first, so he doesn't Yeah,
he has not experienced all that you have. He's not
in the sweet spot like you. No, yeah, second one's
really sweet. He's still Daniel Jones with the Giants.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Yes, that's right. He has a nice lady. Yeah, that congratulations. Yeah,
he's Drake May with the Patriots.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
So what is what are the vikings in this scenario?
Just the slumpbuster like somebody day America picked up some things?
Yeah you know, yeah, all of America.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
That's like Mount Rushmore, that's like the arch and that's
another overrated thing you think is going to be great.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Mount Rushmore is overrated. Oh it is completely. It's like
you'd be this cynical with the penguins doing as well
as they're doing. The peguans are doing great. Why is
Mount Rushmore?
Speaker 3 (21:23):
Because to me, that is one of the most like,
you know, human, isn't it one of the seven wonders
of the world.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
It's like four guys heads in rock. Yeah, I mean
it is if you think, but you can only see
it from like so far away. It's like you're on
Mount Washington looking at the steel building.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
You can't get closed. You're not in the Hitchcock movie.
A friend of mine, Jerry, said the same thing. And
you drive two hours from each direction because it's right
in the middle of nowhere, and you get there and
you're like, well, how do I get I asked the ranger.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
I go, how do I get up to there?
Speaker 9 (21:49):
To go?
Speaker 2 (21:49):
He goes, oh, you can't get there. You're literally just
he could buy a postcard and have the same view.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Oh, well that does suck. I didn't know that, Yes,
exactly the day of your life. Well, I really did.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
North By Northwest is it screwed up a lot of
people's perception of what a day at Mount Rushmore well,
because the villain has a beautiful mid century modern house
on top of Mount Rushmore like that's obviously not there.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
But you think you'd be looking up like George Washington's boogers. Right,
You're right, No, you are nuggers. Wouldn't They should have
put a bar up there, Wouldn't it be cool? They
should at least let you walk close to it. Mike,
I'm telling you you are like at least five hundred
yards away from Wow.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
You were really down on the Sant Louis Arch as
well during our commercial.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Yeah, I think it's just like, yeah, it's like you
think it's gonna be amazing, and you're like, oh, I
like the arch.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
I'm not against it. I never I never got to
go up at though, so who knows.
Speaker 7 (22:51):
Maybe a little uh, you probably wouldn't enjoy it because
it's a little constricting.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
I heard it's janky. I heard the elevator's janky. That's
not what I want to hear. Compartments and it's I
won't do it again. I did it a long time ago.
I'm done with that now. Someone told me something was
like pee in there too. I never noticed that.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
But you know how he's always crowded to them. Everybody
goes there, always crowded, and so no one goes It's
like the Yogi Bear. No one got no because you know,
you see it your whole life, like, oh the arches
on every commercial and you drive and it's like it's it.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
What about space Needle? Space is awesome? Yeah, I agree,
Space Needle I think is like an oppressive Holy Jesus.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Yeah, it was like the first one too. Yeah, it's
the tower and Toronto is the other one. I've never
been on top of that. There's other things to do
in Toronto that's pretty cool sea, but there's nothing to
do with throw fishing to the space.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Needle in those days.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yeah, I haven't you know when I first started going there.
But now it's pretty I know, I see. That was
a great town.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
I love.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Kind of got too much, you know how they ruined
San Francisco. They kind of ruined Seattle. The tech bros. Yeah,
tech bros ruin it all they do.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
They really. I hate to be a downer, but welcome
to Pittsburgh, where thankfully that's not happening.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Oh wait, San Francisco, though, is really bouncing back in
a great way.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
I have I have not well. I went last summer,
but my friends who lived there have said that that
it is. There is a market difference out there in
terms of the sort of cultural vibe.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Yeah, I know, I really hang around North Beach because
it's the Italian center and all.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
That's where my friends live in.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
North Beach is it's it's about every night now. It's
like the streets are packed, the restaurants are filled. People
are dude, you gotta go.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
That's City Lights, bookstar Resuvio's there. You know, the fakes
play so whatever was it gone? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Yeah, but just such great Italian food. They have tons
of great sinking Yeah. I don't even know if that's
so there. There's just new restaurants all the time, but
just people, bands, this night life, just women.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
The Sinking Rose is a restaurant that is all garlic,
and when you go in there's pickled garlic like on
the table, and everything you get is smothered in different
kinds of prepared garlic.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Every dish is infused garlic. Like it is. It's like
it is a vampire's nightmare.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Malinari's they used to have my I dedicated my CD
to them, but that's what it was a restaurant.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
My heart attacked.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
No, it's a heart attack there, No, but I I
ate all the c I ate the cured salt, the
beets for like three weeks and came back. I was
I every day because I've worked on my CD there,
like every night doing sets. But they're Anthony Bourdain kind
of ruined it a little bit, and the pandemic kind
of made it not as it's a little different, but still.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
The best Italian sandwich. Where's the best Italian sandwich in
Pittsburgh Philadelphia?
Speaker 9 (25:40):
Well?
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Whoa?
Speaker 1 (25:42):
First of all, Dan Danny's Dandy's HOGI is the best.
Love Danny's the best. I've never set one person there
that was like, holy hell, that's amazing. Yep, I'm over due.
I always get Danny's and Rudy's mixed up though.
Speaker 6 (25:56):
Rudy's is like out in the East where I grew write,
and Danny's is out here is Gardell.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yeah, that's that's where you know, people from our end
of town went. Its great. It's on the cutest things
I like about Pittsburgh. People think the sandwiches are I see.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
You know Mike who is a Pittsburgh born and raised
and were you born here and moved there or are
you born there?
Speaker 1 (26:16):
Yeah? Yeah, grew up here kind of. It's the family
in Philly. I consider myself a pittsman.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
You are, but I got a call it like I
see it with the sandwiches in Philly, the Nicks, the Knicks,
and the reading. The reading terminal is the best, poor
the pork, roasted pork, broccoli robbed, uh sharp provolo.
Speaker 7 (26:38):
If we're ever out there at the same time, I'll
take you to a place called Lee's hogy Hut in Abington, Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Okay, Hey, I love sandwiches. That's my thing.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Everywhere I go, I'm absolutely poor Man's Bardain. That's my
favorite thing to do. Every town I know where to.
Speaker 7 (26:53):
Get a sandwich that we don't have to get redundant
about the cheese steaks because everybody knows.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
By Now, Hey, while you're talking about Philadelphia, I want
to make time to just wish our friends at WMMR
in Philadelphia. Send them our deepest sympathy. A legendary DJ
at WMMR in Philadelphia past Pierre Robert.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
No, Yes, I listen to that guy growing up.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
Yeah, he died at the age of seventy yesterday and
all of Philadelphia is mourning him. But like he was
a classic rock radio legends. He was only seventy, and
he looked really good for seventy. I mean he always
had that big, long hair. And I never met him.
I never knew him, but you could. You couldn't be
(27:37):
in this industry and not know about Pierre and the
impact he Like he really immbodied the old school of
FM radio and made it continue to work as it
became the world became digital and everything. He just really
represented like an analog past of rock and roll and
(28:02):
but never was a dinosaur about the changes in music
and was a guy that you know, that's like, you
know how it is, but like people trust Michelle and
they trust Sean and Chad and everybody, and that was it,
Like this guy.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Knows what he's doing.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
And he did countless interviews with bands over you know,
a fifty year career, and he was a legend.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
So he does look great. He looks fantastic.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
You know.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
It was really sad, and I know they're all hurting
over there because that was sudden.
Speaker 7 (28:33):
Yeah, what's the other Philly station? I can't even remember
because I was listening to MMR. But there was two
and there was kind of like a little bit of
a battle, but not much.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
I don't know, but yeah, I know.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Brian Adams was on stage in Philadelphia last night and
he dedicated one to him. There's gonna be a lot
of people dedicating songs to him. He's he was an
influential guy that musicians. Uh, you know, he came from
that old school where musicians had relationships with the on
air talent talent, and they all revered him. So deepest
sympathies to our friend on friends at WMMR over in Philadelphia.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
How are the applause?
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Well, you know what, See, if you come in off
of a commercial break, we'll give you the applause, like

of a longer top of the hour break and then
we just kind of like like merge you into the conversation.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
Yeah, all right, So I like the applause. We might
have to start doing the applause. It makes you feel special, makes.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
You feel different. I get it.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
Your performance is already off to a good start. So
let's let's do this. Top three Halloween candies.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
Oh man, it's.
Speaker 8 (30:35):
Gotta start with Reese's the Pumpkin or the air sorry,
the ghost Yeah, you know, the regular but they've obviously
made the ghosts. Anything chocolate and peanut butter is just
always top for me. I'm with him, so I'm heavy
on that. That's the problem. So Reese's uh.
Speaker 4 (30:53):
Number number number one?
Speaker 8 (30:54):
Easy, you can do regular cups or the or the Ghosts.
I'm gonna go kit catnumber two. There, Yeah you didn't
like that, okay?
Speaker 1 (31:07):
And the.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (31:11):
Three, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
The problem is you asked me this question. I had
literally never in my life.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Turned down any candy at all, So there's.
Speaker 8 (31:23):
Really no like, oh, like, if we're gonna debate it,
if we did a full debate of Halloween candy, my
answer to almost every single one of them would be like, yeah,
I'd eat that.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
I'd have that. That sounds good.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
The problem is they have so many they have so
many different reces now that that would be my one,
two three, because the Oreo receis we have been housing
here at the studio.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
They're unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (31:47):
But I let by, yeah are you we're sponsored by
reces and.
Speaker 8 (31:51):
We get like we have a a convenience store type
display of the Oreo reeses and it's it's insane. It goes,
we go through them. Like the other day, I just
had like I had like twelve Reese's cups. That's not
a normal thing to do.
Speaker 4 (32:09):
And I was just I was like, Okay, I had
twelve today.
Speaker 8 (32:12):
That's that's I need to like readjust my brain, like, no,
that's not what you're supposed to do.
Speaker 6 (32:17):
Yeah, dude, that in combination with the ice cream machine,
like you were on a fast track for type two.
Speaker 3 (32:24):
I thought you got rid of the ice cream machine. No,
did you amend your ice cream intake though? Wasn't there
something going on there? You put a governor on that thing.
Speaker 8 (32:37):
Yeah, we're trying to do no non no ice cream
on on day's NOLF football.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
So okay, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
Okay, Friday is going to change soon.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Do you think that Magic Johnson's tweets indicate a neurological disorder?
Speaker 8 (32:59):
So I've heard this, I've heard through I don't know
if you guys heard the same thing, But apparently he
dictates his tweets just to his assistant or something, or
he texts them. I don't think he's ever.
Speaker 4 (33:10):
Been on Twitter, So I think that's what he thinks
it is.
Speaker 8 (33:14):
I think these type of people, like super super celebrities,
they're so removed from the real world that I don't
think he knows that we're all laughing at him, because
he's never seen the reaction. But I will say this
about Magic, No else is doing it like him. There's
a lot of people on Twitter who are kind of
doing the same jokes, kind of doing the same stuff.
Speaker 4 (33:33):
He's just giving you.
Speaker 8 (33:34):
Straight analysis like an AI robot, and it's just it
hits every single time.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
With the series being this is before last night's game,
with the series being two two, Game five is very important.
Whichever team wins takes control of the series. That's a
Magic Johnson, such a great pot.
Speaker 4 (33:51):
Nothing is wrong about that. When he said was all fad.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Brian Kelly got gassed at lsu uh and then he
was pictured. He was pictured eating Mexican food, having a
casadia all by himself, wearing cargo shorts somewhere in Baton
Rouge Uh.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
Is that sad or boss move? Boss move?
Speaker 8 (34:14):
He went and got the biggest CASEO he could get.
I think that's a boss move. I mean, the guy
is It's very funny because he is. Uh, I don't
think I've remember the mex He might have, He definitely
might have. I don't think there's ever been a coach.
I can't remember a coach who's been fired that not
a single person has said a nice thing about him,
(34:35):
Like when James Franklin.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
When James Franklin.
Speaker 8 (34:38):
Was fired, there was a lot of people who came
out and they're like, Hey, this guy really cared about me,
like I was a walk on. Whatever the story may be,
James Franklin seemed like, you know, maybe there's you know,
a fakeness to him, but there was at least a
little real human behind all of it, and he was
he was He had good human interactions Brian Kelly. Like
(34:58):
I was saying, we had Jack Martin in studio last
week from the Cowboys and obviously.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
Played for Brian Kelly, No Dame, future Hall of Famer.
Speaker 8 (35:05):
He had the nicest thing to say about Brian Kelly
and what Zach Martin told us when I asked HI
about Brian Kelly, he said, yeah, we haven't really talked since.
Speaker 4 (35:13):
I saw since I left Notre Dame. That was the
nicest thing about Brian Kelly. That's it. Did you hear
that that was basically glazing him.
Speaker 3 (35:21):
Yeah, the anecdote from Robert Salah and Matt Lafleur when
they were assistants under him, they were grad assistants. Yeah,
and they got invited to his house and for a party,
and they showed up and he made them park cars.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
They thought they were guests and they were valets.
Speaker 9 (35:38):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (35:39):
Yes, yes he is.
Speaker 8 (35:41):
He just seems like a genuinely bad guy, and you know,
we need more of those where where you know, there
are bad people all around us, but a lot of
times they do a good job of hiding it. Brian
Kelly's one of those bad guys that everyone can look
and like point like, hey, he's like scarface, that's the
bad guy.
Speaker 4 (36:00):
We get all points.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
Yeah from away, big hat.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
Your computer your week eight computer rankings in the NFL
stirred up some emotion here in Pittsburgh because I retweeted
it and quoted the category that you had the Steelers in,
which is and they sit there alone, the exact same
team every single year.
Speaker 8 (36:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Yeah, And I don't know if you noticed, but like
right below it, it is the Iowa guys who are Yeah,
they're the.
Speaker 8 (36:30):
College Steelers because they wear the same colors, they're the
exact same.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
Team every year. But it's actually a good thing because like, hey,
this is fun.
Speaker 8 (36:37):
We we somehow find a way to win eight games
every year with Iowa, uh and.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
Then the Steelers.
Speaker 3 (36:43):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (36:44):
I mean, it's just when is enough enough?
Speaker 8 (36:47):
You guys have Like I used to laugh at you
guys when you'd be like, we have standards here and
this is we're sick of the nine and eight and
losing in the in the first round.
Speaker 4 (36:57):
Plass. I used to be like, you gotta be kidding me.
Speaker 8 (36:59):
I would do anything, go to the playoffs, like I
would do anything for that consistency.
Speaker 4 (37:03):
But now I'm one hundred percent on your guys side.
Speaker 8 (37:05):
This season looks exactly the same as the last like
decade basically, and it's it's just crazy to watch this
organization think that they have They just haven't had a
plan after Ben and it's been so drawn out. And
the problem is a lot of teams.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
When they don't have a plan after their franchise quarterback retires,
like they bought them out. You guys just won't bottom
out ever, and and now you're stuck with this.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Yeah, well said all right, I have one more question
for you.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
Has anybody at barstool played in one of Chauncey Billups
card games?
Speaker 9 (37:41):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (37:43):
Oh what I know? I don't think so it would
have been mere Dave. I don't, I know, I haven't.
I also know that would definitely be something I would
do to get taken.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
Get taken, yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:59):
With you.
Speaker 8 (38:01):
Just come home and my wife's like, what would you do?
And it's like, Oh, I went to this awesome card
game with all these NBA players. I wanted to lose
two hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (38:09):
It was so cool.
Speaker 4 (38:11):
Yeah, no, I that was when I read that story.
It was like I I you know, when you put
yourself in a story.
Speaker 8 (38:17):
It's like, yeah, I could one hundred percent be the
guy who got taken here, Like I would, without a
doubt go sit at a card table and have an
X ray in my cards and lose every hand and
be like, man, that was one guy.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
Do you think it's gonna have an effect on gambling
sports gambling?
Speaker 4 (38:33):
I don't know. I don't think.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
I think this is gonna be like one of those
things where they're like, well, all right, somebody, somebody got
a duy and they're not. Yeah, you know, legislation is
not going to come out to stop drinking. There's like, no,
these guys broke the rules of gambling. But gambling is
illegal as long as you don't do things illegally. If
you cheat, that's illegal. That's how I think it's gonna
be approached.
Speaker 4 (38:57):
I agree.
Speaker 8 (38:58):
I think it's gonna be something where they be a
little more strict with injuries and how they report news
and stuff, because that is you know, the leagues just
have to be a lot stricter and tighter on all
of that stuff when people are gambling millions of dollars
on every single game. But yeah, I the reaction to
it is always so over the top both ways, where
(39:18):
it's like people are like, you gotta ban gambling, gambling
is ruined sports, and then you gotta people are like, oh,
this is absolute, no problem. It's somewhere in the middle,
like everything in life. I don't think it's gonna change
anything long term. I think it's more like on the league,
and it's basically on Adam Silver and the different commissioners
of each league.
Speaker 4 (39:35):
You are taking the money in from.
Speaker 8 (39:36):
Gambling advertising, right like you are getting the benefits of
legalized gambling. You are now have to you have to
take the extra steps to make sure the integrity of
your game is not taking advantage.
Speaker 4 (39:48):
Of in any way. That's on you. That's not on me.
Speaker 8 (39:51):
Guy who's gambling on props, who wants to be able
to gamble legally, I have.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
No I did nothing here.
Speaker 8 (39:58):
It's on you to make sure that you're game has
the integrity and doesn't have anything going on that's that's illegal.
Speaker 6 (40:04):
Did you ever put a parlay together where you felt
like this is so crazy. I wouldn't be surprised if
the betting app flagged this, because that's how some of
these guys got caught. Like the parlay was so suspicious
that the app was like, no, no, we're not paying you.
Speaker 4 (40:22):
No.
Speaker 8 (40:22):
I I'm the type I get the uh I get
the hot tips after everyone in the world's gotten it.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Yeah, where it's like hey this guy.
Speaker 8 (40:33):
Yeah, yeah, Like once I have the hot tip, it's like, oh,
the whole world has already figured this out, and it's
already been baking the line, and so.
Speaker 4 (40:41):
People always think that they have like some tips or something.
Speaker 8 (40:44):
It's like they already had figured this out. The line
already reflects this so, but yeah, I think that uh,
the overreaction. And you know, obviously people will call me
a hypocrite because I you know, we draftings the sponsor
of ours. I actually think I'm the only one who's
not hypocript because I've been gambling long before.
Speaker 4 (41:02):
And I've been losing long before that. I've been losing
for two plus decades.
Speaker 8 (41:06):
And I'm like, hey, dude, I've never once said that
I know the answer to the question of like a
winner or.
Speaker 4 (41:13):
Anything like that. I lose. I'm a loser. I like
to do it. It's my only hobby. You can decide
to do it as well, or you can decide not
to do it. I don't care. It's a free country.
Speaker 3 (41:22):
I just want to say, as a parting note here,
my big play last weekend was teasing the Dallas Denver
over down and teasing the Bears up to eight and
a half and they had they had first in goal
with a minute left and couldn't get in the end
zone from the one inch line. Caleb Williams destroyed my Sunday.
(41:46):
They score there, pot of gold.
Speaker 4 (41:49):
This there.
Speaker 1 (41:49):
I'm down to the day killed me. Your team killed me.
Does it hurt to hear it, and you've got to
watch this every Sunday.
Speaker 8 (42:01):
Yeah, yeah, there's they were garbage on offense on something,
but you know the saying, the only.
Speaker 4 (42:06):
Thing you teases yourself, So just stop doing teasers. That's
not I'm me.
Speaker 1 (42:09):

What's up?
Speaker 3 (01:21):
And is?
Speaker 1 (01:21):
This hour?
Speaker 5 (01:21):
Brought to you by Window Nation. Breezy and rainy today
a high of fifty two. If you were hoping to
throw a Halloween rager in a rented mansion this weekend,
you might want to check your reservation because Airbnb's party
police are already on the case. For the fifth year running,
Airbnb is deploying its advanced anti party technology across the
(01:42):
US and Canada to keep things civilized during spooky season.
The company's message is clear, ghost goblins and gules are welcome,
but unauthorized parties not so much. This year's crackdown is
powered by Airbnb's most aggressive detection system yet, using AI
to identify bookings as they're made.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
This sounds like the anti graffiti technology they had in
The Naked Gun.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
The algorithm evaluates details like how far a guest lives
from the rental, how long they're staying, what kind of
property it is, and when they booked it. If a
reservation looks suspicious, say a one night's day at a
big suburban home booked by somebody who lives five minutes away,
the system can block it automatically.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
And it does work. Last Halloween alone, Airbnb.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
Says it prevented over forty four thousand potential party bookings.
I don't know how they know that these things were parties,
but the company has seen similar results on other big holidays,
including New Year's Eve, Memorial Day, and the fourth of July.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
I don't understand why people still do air and airbnb
for any other reason than to have a party, because
it's just not cost prohibitive, any like going to.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
Hotels as it's not cheap enough to justify.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Right, Yeah, going to tells used to be cost prohabitive,
and now Airbnbs the fees they throw on all of
this stuff are ridiculous. And not to mention, there are
a million stories of the temporary landlords being completely obtrusive
while you're staying there.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
You know that doesn't happen to you at a hotel.
I've never stated Airbnb and I travel everywhere. I've done
vrbos in the past and those have always worked out fine.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
What's the difference?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
I think they just it's like think uber Lyft, you
know what I mean, Like the house one. They're usually
vacation homes, so you get them like in Florida in
places like that.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
And it just has a little more like.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
The quality control I think, although, and it may have
slipped through the years because I haven't used it as
much lately, but you know, ten fifteen years ago, I
used it all the time. But now the fees get
racked up so much. You look at the price, you're like, hey,
that's not bad if six of us, let's split that.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
And then you hit like, okay, let's let's book it.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
And then all of a sudden you're like, wait, where'd
that eight hundred extra dollars come from?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Exactly?
Speaker 5 (04:04):
I did that on a vacation I don't know how
many years ago now where I was like, I'm like,
this is going to be totally affordable. And then when
I was getting ready to check out, I was like,
one thousand dollars in taxes like that, that's.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
The whole vacation. Here you go, we're on Ticketmaster's running Airbnb.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
Now.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Yeah, yeah, the codsome fee, a service fee. Hey you
booked a Z fee. There's a fee for everything.
Speaker 6 (04:25):
It does seem like all these entrepreneurs that have popped
up over the last decade or so, like we bought
ten properties and now we flip them and turn them
into moneymakers for us every week. But you go in
there and everything is either falling apart or is broken
and taped together underneath. And I think people are just
getting hip to it, being like this stinks.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Yeah, so many airbnbs are just particle board to me. Yes,
you know, it's like nothing's real anymore.
Speaker 6 (04:55):
It's a flip with like the lowest quality finishes you
could possibly have.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Right, and there's a camera in the bathroom. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
In a lot of towns like New Orleans, there's legislation
to get rid of all this stuff because they think
it's ruining, it's hollowing out these kinds of cities Nashville,
New Orleans, and it's all landlords and in like Ski
Town's Breckinridge Vail, stuff like that, where it's just all
second home owners that it's not their primary residence and
it exists to be a hotel for that person. And
(05:26):
now they're taxing the bejesus out of them in some
of those counties so that people can't afford to keep
them unless they literally.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Were housed, you know, three hundred and sixty five days
a year.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
And New Orleans has really suffered from it, and because
they're like, this is we're losing our city. It's just
all these venture capitalists are buying every home that goes
up for sale. They just buy it, renovate it crapply
like you said, and then throw it out there. And
it's not a family residence. It's just existing to be
(05:57):
a temporary residence. So they're changing the zoning down there
to stop that from happening. I do Airbnb every year
for the Frozen four.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
It's great. Okay, well then good experiences. Can you forget
everything we've said?
Speaker 7 (06:08):
We get like five or six guys, everybody get a
big place, everybody gets around.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
That's great.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
Yeah, we haven't go into this text thing you're talking about.
I mean, it's the cost is better than a hotel,
and it's more comfortable. Can you have hotel sex and
the airbnb? Well it depends.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, you're with I guess and you're doing it. It depends, yes.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
I mean that's the you know, is there extra towels
at the airbnb? How messy are you getting?
Speaker 8 (06:37):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Hey, yeah, all right, you don't know me.
Speaker 7 (06:43):
Man.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
It's time for our pick six segment.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
Were Bill and I give you six games to choose
from this weekend that we think are absolutely definitely maybe
gonna win. And let's start it with the Ravens at
the Dolphin.
Speaker 6 (06:56):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
By the way, Pick six is brought to you by
Bett Parks Sports Book and casino app Family Problem Call
one eight Hunter Gambler. Start with the Ravens at the
Dolphins plus seven and a half.
Speaker 6 (07:04):
Mike McDaniel's seat is so hot that all of South
Florida smells like ass hair right now, Tuas said, the
Dolphins just need to clean up the little things, yeah,
like tackling, blocking, running, passing, kicking, showing up to players
only meetings, winning football games, and all that burnt ass hair.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
The Ravens, on the other hand, just need to clean up.
Speaker 6 (07:28):
The practice participation reports because they have Lamar Jackson listed
as fully undead this week and he already looks like
zombie Michael Jackson in the Thriller video. So the Finns
better lock the doors when it gets close to midnight.
The Dolphins are one to oher after to a tongue
of Victrola threw his teammates under the bus and disrespected
(07:49):
a coach. So to keep that streak going this week,
he's making sure all Dolphins fans know they're white trash
and the owner.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Is a cheapskate, and the Ravens are one and oh
after them.
Speaker 6 (08:00):
Cleaned out the video games, the ping pong tables in
the cornhole. So to keep that streak going, he's announced
that the Ray Lewis statue will travel with the team
until the Ravens defense can obstruct something. Lamar is undead,
and so are the Ravens. Take the rat Birds in
a thriller tonight.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
That's the Bears at the Bengals plus two. How are
things going for the Bears? Well, they're less than a
field goal favorite over an under five hundred team that's
starting a forty year old quarterback who eats at Applebee's
by himself, and they're fresh off a home defeat to
the previously zero to seven New York Jets. Safe to say,
Ben Johnson is still always away from restoring their Monsters
(08:39):
of the Midway reputation more like the Mama Luke so
to Midway. At this point, Caleb Williams has struggled with
more than just what nail polish to wear to lou Malinatis.
He doesn't have exactly a deep dish of receivers to
choose from this weekend. Two of his top wideouts have
been ruled out loser Burden, the third in Alamedae Zakias,
God bless you. You wonder without those guys, who's Caleb
(09:03):
gonna wildly overthrow to this weeknad.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
They did sign safety CJ.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Gardner Johnson yesterday to trap shorp the defensive backfield and
reunite him with former decoordinator Dennis Allen in Chicago, so now.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
He's a Bear. But the last time CJ.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Gardner Johnson played on Soldier Field with the Saints, Bears,
wide receiver Javon Whims tried to rip CJ's gold chain
off from around his neck and then punched him in
the head.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Thankfully.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Now, the only way you get treated like that in
Chicago is if an Ice agent thinks you look awfully
tan for this time of year. And acquiring Gardner Johnson obviously,
Ben Johnson and Ryan Poles think there's nothing wrong with
the Bears that a few unsportsmanlike conduct penalties can't fix.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
This is, of course, if a big if.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
If Flacco's good to go this weekend, which it's looking
like it might not be good for Joe Flacco. He's
officially got an ac joint sprain, which incidentally, that was
my cousin's rapper name. But for Flacco it means he
might not be able to go on Sunday, which leaves
the Bengals in the ink hands of Jake Browning, which
on Halloween weekend is the scariest ordeal conceivable.
Speaker 9 (10:07):
This weekend in the Queen's City, Prepare for the horror
of the most in nip quarterbacking you've ever seen. This Sunday,
Prepare for the Browning On November two, Prepare to ride the.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Escaloosa straight into the Browning. Hey, but who knows. I mean, look,
Joe is an old guy, you know.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
I mean, Flacco's like old guy's joints are always hurting
with changes in barometric pressure. Maybe his sore shoulder is
just a sign it it's gonna rain on Sunday, and
maybe he'll play. But one thing's for sure. If Caleb
can't get it together against this sloppy d, the Windy
City is gonna let him know just how much he blows.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
When he gets on. Flaco's arm is gonna fall off.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Take the Bears next Panthers at the Packers minus thirteen
and a half.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
Jordan Love came into Pittsburgh last week and cucked our QB.
I haven't seen that many Love completions since Caligula. And
now the Packers get the Carolina Panthers, who just shut
their eye out last week with the red rifle. Andy
Dalton took more sacks than a sauna bench at La Fitness.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
They scored zero.
Speaker 6 (11:26):
The only consistent thing in Carolina this year has been
the Punters cardio. Meanwhile, Jordan Love already looks like Bart
Starr Dipton Aaron Rodgers, and maybe it was just the
Steelers defense making him look like Farv in The Wrangler.
Jean's prime just picking apart soft zones in a local park.
Either way, he's throwing with confidence, and when you're facing
(11:47):
the Panthers, that confidence usually turns into forty burgers. If
he throws for less than three hundred yards and three
touchdowns this week, it's only because he feels bad.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
For them and his arm gets sore.
Speaker 6 (11:58):
The Panthers defense isn't it's just tired, and they're not great,
but they're relatable. They don't lay down, but you can
tell they want to they show more fight after the
game because it's over.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Don't snooze. Take the Packers.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Next, Niners at the Giants plus two and a half
forty nine Ers make the cross country track to METLFE Stadium,
where they take on the New York Giants, who are
without superstar running back Cam.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Scattaboo scatta boo. Can you do that fun angle?
Speaker 3 (12:29):
No, he cannot because his angle is mangled worse than
Freddie Mercury mangled his mouth retainer.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Sure did. Dable ran into the blue tent and raised
Holy hell.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Last month when Dart was concussed after watching Russ play
only one down, an understandable reaction. Quite honestly, imagine how
that fell for Russell Wilson, the head coach, completely willing
to take a one hundred thousand dollars fine to rush
his concussed quarterback out on the field screaming, and anybody
would listen to get that incompetently positive half leet off
the field. Kind of hard to post go Big Blue
(13:01):
on Instagram after the game which everyone saw your coach
flip over a tent leg he was a female worker
after a hurricane, trying to get you out of there,
seeing as though he has Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary
still to tote the rock. He probably Dable probably refrained
from barging into the o R when Scataboo's Boo boo
was being fixed. Of course, that probably didn't stop Jackson
(13:21):
Dart from headbutting the surgeon for good luck.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
What's up with these idiots in the head budding?
Speaker 3 (13:25):
I mean, Dart's not as bad with it as Scataboo,
but like by the time that guy's forty, Skataboo's gonna
have a smaller vocabulary than Coco the Gorilla. Brian's Dables
hilarious though. I like when he gets all mad and
red faced on the sidelines. He looks like an infected
big Toe wearing a Giants hoodie. See, the injuries are
piling up for New York because the Giants are already
(13:46):
living on a deserted island.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
They got no neighbors.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Molik the Unique Freak is out along with Skataboo, and
it won't matter that San Francisco hasn't seen this many
injuries on their side since the earthquake of NIGHTEO six.
Then Niners are without their own injury issues. Because aren't
without their own injury issues, rather because brock Purdy is
limited in practice. So you might see the return of
(14:10):
the Mac behind center for forty nine ers.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Hey mac Jones is four and two as a starter.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
And with all those people hurt that the g Man have,
all they got to do is hand it to McCaffrey
and let Christian know his time, his cub and it's
time for this Christian to perform some conversions of the
first down variety. This one's a layup. Don't sweat the
one pm East Coast kickoff with the cross country travel
from San Francisco.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
The Niners ain't leaving their heart there.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Take the Niners next, Cardinals at the Cowboys minus two
and a half.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
The over might hit during the coin flip on this game.
These teams are both sloppier than Honey Boo Boo eating
a man witch on the shaky floor on Noah's Ark.
Jonathan jam Is incited this presser this week that the
Cardinals just need to execute better. That's a fun word
choice for a guy that assault as players. He added,
(15:01):
we just need to make sure we're taking a stab
in the dark and not giving ourselves a puncher's chance,
and then he broke one of the reporter's fingers and
bit a baby. But the coach can't hit what he
can't reach, and Kyler Murray would just start biting his ankles. Anyways,
the QB in the cupboard is back this week and
looking to fly around out there like a dingleberry on
(15:24):
a dune Buggy. Dak was whack in Denver last week
and the defense looked like it smoked crack and sat
on its nutsack. George Pickens said the goal this season
was to go undefeated. He said that last week they're
three four and one. They lost the first game of
the season. Being bad at math actually does add up
(15:46):
for George. I could see him quitting on equations and
fistfighting his teacher down the hallway during the SATs and
jump punching the blackboard. Don't worry about the math in
this one. Just take the over and the cards with
the points next.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
The main event colts at the Steelers Steelers plus three
Halloween weekend. Nothing scary to me at the moment, and
contemplating what might happen with Daniel Indiana Jones in the
Temple of Rooney, Danny Dives is on a roll of quarters,
and after thirty two of them so far this year,
the Colts are seven and one and Jones has the
third most passing yards in the league. The only person
(16:25):
that moving to Indianapolis has worked out better for is
Pat McAfee and the person that sells tank toks to
Pat McAfee. The Colts Horseshoe finally stopped letting all the
luck run out for the first time since well the
luck ran out andrew luck to be precise, and fans
are now actually going to the games at Lucas Oil
Stadium dressed as Indiana Jones. Contribute to Daniel's success at quarterback,
(16:48):
I'd suggest trying to counter it by dressing up as
Indiana Jones's nemesis this weekend.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
From Raiders of the Lost Ark Quest.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
We don't need any more Nazis running around these days,
and it's not just Danny that the Steelers have to
make Room four. That's a nineteen fifty three reference out
there for all of the grandfathers who are listening.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
To and the kids who love the Nike at night.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
I'm not sure our secondary can keep up with the Jones' passes.
But also Jonathan Taylor is running his way to the
league MVP status. He's got fourteen touchdowns this year, and
with the Steelers run defense being more unpredictable than Kanye
West after shotgunning a Celsius, he could run for a
dozen more at Acroture on Sunday, That is, if the
shoddy field literally isn't turned to quicksand by now, seriously,
(17:29):
the farman Anhill's out there fix the field.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
It's an embarrassment.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
And what's the first thing Mike Tomlin complains about in
his weekly pressed slot feeding on Tuesday after Jordan ludd
Love torches them for three hundred and sixty yards, what's
his beef?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
The offense kicked too many field goals. You're the one
that wanted to kick um physician. Heal thyself fourth to
three from the thirty two.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Jalen Warren's averaging seven a carry, and you trot bas
out there to take his chances on that cow pasture
with a fadning pit logo that got airbrushed over with
a Steeler's logo like it's one of Graham Plattner's accidental
Nazi tattoos.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Oops, now it's a Calvin Hobbs. Sorry, you could have
gone for a dare coach.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Blaming the offense for the loss of the Packers is
like Sidney Sweeney blaming her bad reviews on her enormous cans.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
That's the only thing making people think it might be
worth watching.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
And how does Tarrell Austin still have a job after
the way last season ended? Simply bringing him back at
all for the season is like trusting Chauncey Billups to
run your poker game fairly. You're guaranteed not to go
home a winner. Steelers are home dogs for the second
week in a row. And you guys, now people want
to get rid of Renegade.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Trell Austin made people hate Renegade? How could you do
that to Dennis de Young? Tarrell that being said, I
really like us on Sunday, I mean I do.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
The Cults are due for a loss, and the Steelers
are annoying and win the games they have no business
winning and lose the games.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
They should get people fired for losy, but.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Nobody gets fired, and the vicious cycle goes on and on,
and we'll probably go into Week fourteen and have to
beat the Dolphins to get into the season, and we'll
lose that one by thirty because the standard is substandard,
but it is predictable, which is why I don't just
like the Stealers.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
I love the Black and Gold on Sunday, Baby, take
the money.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Line and watch Rogers turn Rowan Wilson into Jerry Rice.
Take the Black and Gold, and that's it for us.
There's six that will probably most guaranteed, maybe we likely win.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
You're gonna die up Bear Hill, You damn right. I'm
gonna die on that bear Sel. They're gonna be good.
You are gonna die on that bear Shill.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
We almost did last Sunday, that's for sure. Abby will
have your news when we come back at the top
of the hour, but you'll be joined by Billy Gardell
when you have it. He'll be live in studio with us.
More with Joe Bartnick and Big Cat joins us at
eight forty five.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
The answer is always yes. When you build them menu,
you know what, that would make my day so much better.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
We all request the Electric Lunch week days at noon
on DV from the Bridgeville Appliance Weather Center, known for.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Its DV sports.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
All Right, our buddy Joe Barnick, he's live in studio
with us this morning in anticipation of tonight's Joe Barnick
and Friends show at the Improv at the Waterfront, which
will include friends of the show Jeff Conkle, also Mike Sidell,
also Marcus Cox and a few other Surprise Poppins.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Surprise Poppins. That's gonna be a great show to be fun.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
Is Widey still in town? I saw he was here
for the game? Oh he was, yeah, for the Steelers game.
Recently married Ma Watney.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Yeah, I don't know. Get him on stage. I would
love to have to give him a call. Second marriage
for no, first, that's his first, so he doesn't Yeah,
he has not experienced all that you have. He's not
in the sweet spot like you. No, yeah, second one's
really sweet. He's still Daniel Jones with the Giants.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Yes, that's right. He has a nice lady. Yeah, that congratulations. Yeah,
he's Drake May with the Patriots.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
So what is what are the vikings in this scenario?
Just the slumpbuster like somebody day America picked up some things?
Yeah you know, yeah, all of America.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
That's like Mount Rushmore, that's like the arch and that's
another overrated thing you think is going to be great.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Mount Rushmore is overrated. Oh it is completely. It's like
you'd be this cynical with the penguins doing as well
as they're doing. The peguans are doing great. Why is
Mount Rushmore?
Speaker 3 (21:23):
Because to me, that is one of the most like,
you know, human, isn't it one of the seven wonders
of the world.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
It's like four guys heads in rock. Yeah, I mean
it is if you think, but you can only see
it from like so far away. It's like you're on
Mount Washington looking at the steel building.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
You can't get closed. You're not in the Hitchcock movie.
A friend of mine, Jerry, said the same thing. And
you drive two hours from each direction because it's right
in the middle of nowhere, and you get there and
you're like, well, how do I get I asked the ranger.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
I go, how do I get up to there?
Speaker 9 (21:49):
To go?
Speaker 2 (21:49):
He goes, oh, you can't get there. You're literally just
he could buy a postcard and have the same view.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Oh, well that does suck. I didn't know that, Yes,
exactly the day of your life. Well, I really did.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
North By Northwest is it screwed up a lot of
people's perception of what a day at Mount Rushmore well,
because the villain has a beautiful mid century modern house
on top of Mount Rushmore like that's obviously not there.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
But you think you'd be looking up like George Washington's boogers. Right,
You're right, No, you are nuggers. Wouldn't They should have
put a bar up there, Wouldn't it be cool? They
should at least let you walk close to it. Mike,
I'm telling you you are like at least five hundred
yards away from Wow.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
You were really down on the Sant Louis Arch as
well during our commercial.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Yeah, I think it's just like, yeah, it's like you
think it's gonna be amazing, and you're like, oh, I
like the arch.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
I'm not against it. I never I never got to
go up at though, so who knows.
Speaker 7 (22:51):
Maybe a little uh, you probably wouldn't enjoy it because
it's a little constricting.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
I heard it's janky. I heard the elevator's janky. That's
not what I want to hear. Compartments and it's I
won't do it again. I did it a long time ago.
I'm done with that now. Someone told me something was
like pee in there too. I never noticed that.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
But you know how he's always crowded to them. Everybody
goes there, always crowded, and so no one goes It's
like the Yogi Bear. No one got no because you know,
you see it your whole life, like, oh the arches
on every commercial and you drive and it's like it's it.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
What about space Needle? Space is awesome? Yeah, I agree,
Space Needle I think is like an oppressive Holy Jesus.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Yeah, it was like the first one too. Yeah, it's
the tower and Toronto is the other one. I've never
been on top of that. There's other things to do
in Toronto that's pretty cool sea, but there's nothing to
do with throw fishing to the space.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Needle in those days.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yeah, I haven't you know when I first started going there.
But now it's pretty I know, I see. That was
a great town.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
I love.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Kind of got too much, you know how they ruined
San Francisco. They kind of ruined Seattle. The tech bros. Yeah,
tech bros ruin it all they do.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
They really. I hate to be a downer, but welcome
to Pittsburgh, where thankfully that's not happening.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Oh wait, San Francisco, though, is really bouncing back in
a great way.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
I have I have not well. I went last summer,
but my friends who lived there have said that that
it is. There is a market difference out there in
terms of the sort of cultural vibe.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Yeah, I know, I really hang around North Beach because
it's the Italian center and all.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
That's where my friends live in.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
North Beach is it's it's about every night now. It's
like the streets are packed, the restaurants are filled. People
are dude, you gotta go.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
That's City Lights, bookstar Resuvio's there. You know, the fakes
play so whatever was it gone? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Yeah, but just such great Italian food. They have tons
of great sinking Yeah. I don't even know if that's
so there. There's just new restaurants all the time, but
just people, bands, this night life, just women.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
The Sinking Rose is a restaurant that is all garlic,
and when you go in there's pickled garlic like on
the table, and everything you get is smothered in different
kinds of prepared garlic.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Every dish is infused garlic. Like it is. It's like
it is a vampire's nightmare.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
Malinari's they used to have my I dedicated my CD
to them, but that's what it was a restaurant.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
My heart attacked.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
No, it's a heart attack there, No, but I I
ate all the c I ate the cured salt, the
beets for like three weeks and came back. I was
I every day because I've worked on my CD there,
like every night doing sets. But they're Anthony Bourdain kind
of ruined it a little bit, and the pandemic kind
of made it not as it's a little different, but still.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
The best Italian sandwich. Where's the best Italian sandwich in
Pittsburgh Philadelphia?
Speaker 9 (25:40):
Well?
Speaker 4 (25:41):
Whoa?
Speaker 1 (25:42):
First of all, Dan Danny's Dandy's HOGI is the best.
Love Danny's the best. I've never set one person there
that was like, holy hell, that's amazing. Yep, I'm over due.
I always get Danny's and Rudy's mixed up though.
Speaker 6 (25:56):
Rudy's is like out in the East where I grew write,
and Danny's is out here is Gardell.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yeah, that's that's where you know, people from our end
of town went. Its great. It's on the cutest things
I like about Pittsburgh. People think the sandwiches are I see.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
You know Mike who is a Pittsburgh born and raised
and were you born here and moved there or are
you born there?
Speaker 1 (26:16):
Yeah? Yeah, grew up here kind of. It's the family
in Philly. I consider myself a pittsman.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
You are, but I got a call it like I
see it with the sandwiches in Philly, the Nicks, the Knicks,
and the reading. The reading terminal is the best, poor
the pork, roasted pork, broccoli robbed, uh sharp provolo.
Speaker 7 (26:38):
If we're ever out there at the same time, I'll
take you to a place called Lee's hogy Hut in Abington, Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Okay, Hey, I love sandwiches. That's my thing.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Everywhere I go, I'm absolutely poor Man's Bardain. That's my
favorite thing to do. Every town I know where to.
Speaker 7 (26:53):
Get a sandwich that we don't have to get redundant
about the cheese steaks because everybody knows.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
By Now, Hey, while you're talking about Philadelphia, I want
to make time to just wish our friends at WMMR
in Philadelphia. Send them our deepest sympathy. A legendary DJ
at WMMR in Philadelphia past Pierre Robert.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
No, Yes, I listen to that guy growing up.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
Yeah, he died at the age of seventy yesterday and
all of Philadelphia is mourning him. But like he was
a classic rock radio legends. He was only seventy, and
he looked really good for seventy. I mean he always
had that big, long hair. And I never met him.
I never knew him, but you could. You couldn't be
(27:37):
in this industry and not know about Pierre and the
impact he Like he really immbodied the old school of
FM radio and made it continue to work as it
became the world became digital and everything. He just really
represented like an analog past of rock and roll and
(28:02):
but never was a dinosaur about the changes in music
and was a guy that you know, that's like, you
know how it is, but like people trust Michelle and
they trust Sean and Chad and everybody, and that was it,
Like this guy.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Knows what he's doing.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
And he did countless interviews with bands over you know,
a fifty year career, and he was a legend.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
So he does look great. He looks fantastic.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
You know.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
It was really sad, and I know they're all hurting
over there because that was sudden.
Speaker 7 (28:33):
Yeah, what's the other Philly station? I can't even remember
because I was listening to MMR. But there was two
and there was kind of like a little bit of
a battle, but not much.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
I don't know, but yeah, I know.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Brian Adams was on stage in Philadelphia last night and
he dedicated one to him. There's gonna be a lot
of people dedicating songs to him. He's he was an
influential guy that musicians. Uh, you know, he came from
that old school where musicians had relationships with the on
air talent talent, and they all revered him. So deepest
sympathies to our friend on friends at WMMR over in Philadelphia.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
How are the applause?
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Well, you know what, See, if you come in off
of a commercial break, we'll give you the applause, like
and usually you guys will jump in in the middle
of a longer top of the hour break and then
we just kind of like like merge you into the conversation.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
Yeah, all right, So I like the applause. We might
have to start doing the applause. It makes you feel special, makes.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
You feel different. I get it.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
Your performance is already off to a good start. So
let's let's do this. Top three Halloween candies.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
Oh man, it's.
Speaker 8 (30:35):
Gotta start with Reese's the Pumpkin or the air sorry,
the ghost Yeah, you know, the regular but they've obviously
made the ghosts. Anything chocolate and peanut butter is just
always top for me. I'm with him, so I'm heavy
on that. That's the problem. So Reese's uh.
Speaker 4 (30:53):
Number number number one?
Speaker 8 (30:54):
Easy, you can do regular cups or the or the Ghosts.
I'm gonna go kit catnumber two. There, Yeah you didn't
like that, okay?
Speaker 1 (31:07):
And the.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (31:11):
Three, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
The problem is you asked me this question. I had
literally never in my life.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Turned down any candy at all, So there's.
Speaker 8 (31:23):
Really no like, oh, like, if we're gonna debate it,
if we did a full debate of Halloween candy, my
answer to almost every single one of them would be like, yeah,
I'd eat that.
Speaker 4 (31:32):
I'd have that. That sounds good.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
The problem is they have so many they have so
many different reces now that that would be my one,
two three, because the Oreo receis we have been housing
here at the studio.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
They're unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (31:47):
But I let by, yeah are you we're sponsored by
reces and.
Speaker 8 (31:51):
We get like we have a a convenience store type
display of the Oreo reeses and it's it's insane. It goes,
we go through them. Like the other day, I just
had like I had like twelve Reese's cups. That's not
a normal thing to do.
Speaker 4 (32:09):
And I was just I was like, Okay, I had
twelve today.
Speaker 8 (32:12):
That's that's I need to like readjust my brain, like, no,
that's not what you're supposed to do.
Speaker 6 (32:17):
Yeah, dude, that in combination with the ice cream machine,
like you were on a fast track for type two.
Speaker 3 (32:24):
I thought you got rid of the ice cream machine. No,
did you amend your ice cream intake though? Wasn't there
something going on there? You put a governor on that thing.
Speaker 8 (32:37):
Yeah, we're trying to do no non no ice cream
on on day's NOLF football.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
So okay, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
Okay, Friday is going to change soon.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Do you think that Magic Johnson's tweets indicate a neurological disorder?
Speaker 8 (32:59):
So I've heard this, I've heard through I don't know
if you guys heard the same thing, But apparently he
dictates his tweets just to his assistant or something, or
he texts them. I don't think he's ever.
Speaker 4 (33:10):
Been on Twitter, So I think that's what he thinks
it is.
Speaker 8 (33:14):
I think these type of people, like super super celebrities,
they're so removed from the real world that I don't
think he knows that we're all laughing at him, because
he's never seen the reaction. But I will say this
about Magic, No else is doing it like him. There's
a lot of people on Twitter who are kind of
doing the same jokes, kind of doing the same stuff.
Speaker 4 (33:33):
He's just giving you.
Speaker 8 (33:34):
Straight analysis like an AI robot, and it's just it
hits every single time.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
With the series being this is before last night's game,
with the series being two two, Game five is very important.
Whichever team wins takes control of the series. That's a
Magic Johnson, such a great pot.
Speaker 4 (33:51):
Nothing is wrong about that. When he said was all fad.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Brian Kelly got gassed at lsu uh and then he
was pictured. He was pictured eating Mexican food, having a
casadia all by himself, wearing cargo shorts somewhere in Baton
Rouge Uh.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
Is that sad or boss move? Boss move?
Speaker 8 (34:14):
He went and got the biggest CASEO he could get.
I think that's a boss move. I mean, the guy
is It's very funny because he is. Uh, I don't
think I've remember the mex He might have, He definitely
might have. I don't think there's ever been a coach.
I can't remember a coach who's been fired that not
a single person has said a nice thing about him,
(34:35):
Like when James Franklin.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
When James Franklin.
Speaker 8 (34:38):
Was fired, there was a lot of people who came
out and they're like, Hey, this guy really cared about me,
like I was a walk on. Whatever the story may be,
James Franklin seemed like, you know, maybe there's you know,
a fakeness to him, but there was at least a
little real human behind all of it, and he was
he was He had good human interactions Brian Kelly. Like
(34:58):
I was saying, we had Jack Martin in studio last
week from the Cowboys and obviously.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
Played for Brian Kelly, No Dame, future Hall of Famer.
Speaker 8 (35:05):
He had the nicest thing to say about Brian Kelly
and what Zach Martin told us when I asked HI
about Brian Kelly, he said, yeah, we haven't really talked since.
Speaker 4 (35:13):
I saw since I left Notre Dame. That was the
nicest thing about Brian Kelly. That's it. Did you hear
that that was basically glazing him.
Speaker 3 (35:21):
Yeah, the anecdote from Robert Salah and Matt Lafleur when
they were assistants under him, they were grad assistants. Yeah,
and they got invited to his house and for a party,
and they showed up and he made them park cars.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
They thought they were guests and they were valets.
Speaker 9 (35:38):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (35:39):
Yes, yes he is.
Speaker 8 (35:41):
He just seems like a genuinely bad guy, and you know,
we need more of those where where you know, there
are bad people all around us, but a lot of
times they do a good job of hiding it. Brian
Kelly's one of those bad guys that everyone can look
and like point like, hey, he's like scarface, that's the
bad guy.
Speaker 4 (36:00):
We get all points.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
Yeah from away, big hat.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
Your computer your week eight computer rankings in the NFL
stirred up some emotion here in Pittsburgh because I retweeted
it and quoted the category that you had the Steelers in,
which is and they sit there alone, the exact same
team every single year.
Speaker 8 (36:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Yeah, And I don't know if you noticed, but like
right below it, it is the Iowa guys who are Yeah,
they're the.
Speaker 8 (36:30):
College Steelers because they wear the same colors, they're the
exact same.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
Team every year. But it's actually a good thing because like, hey,
this is fun.
Speaker 8 (36:37):
We we somehow find a way to win eight games
every year with Iowa, uh and.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
Then the Steelers.
Speaker 3 (36:43):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (36:44):
I mean, it's just when is enough enough?
Speaker 8 (36:47):
You guys have Like I used to laugh at you
guys when you'd be like, we have standards here and
this is we're sick of the nine and eight and
losing in the in the first round.
Speaker 4 (36:57):
Plass. I used to be like, you gotta be kidding me.
Speaker 8 (36:59):
I would do anything, go to the playoffs, like I
would do anything for that consistency.
Speaker 4 (37:03):
But now I'm one hundred percent on your guys side.
Speaker 8 (37:05):
This season looks exactly the same as the last like
decade basically, and it's it's just crazy to watch this
organization think that they have They just haven't had a
plan after Ben and it's been so drawn out. And
the problem is a lot of teams.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
When they don't have a plan after their franchise quarterback retires,
like they bought them out. You guys just won't bottom
out ever, and and now you're stuck with this.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Yeah, well said all right, I have one more question
for you.
Speaker 3 (37:36):
Has anybody at barstool played in one of Chauncey Billups
card games?
Speaker 9 (37:41):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (37:43):
Oh what I know? I don't think so it would
have been mere Dave. I don't, I know, I haven't.
I also know that would definitely be something I would
do to get taken.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
Get taken, yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:59):
With you.
Speaker 8 (38:01):
Just come home and my wife's like, what would you do?
And it's like, Oh, I went to this awesome card
game with all these NBA players. I wanted to lose
two hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (38:09):
It was so cool.
Speaker 4 (38:11):
Yeah, no, I that was when I read that story.
It was like I I you know, when you put
yourself in a story.
Speaker 8 (38:17):
It's like, yeah, I could one hundred percent be the
guy who got taken here, Like I would, without a
doubt go sit at a card table and have an
X ray in my cards and lose every hand and
be like, man, that was one guy.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
Do you think it's gonna have an effect on gambling
sports gambling?
Speaker 4 (38:33):
I don't know. I don't think.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
I think this is gonna be like one of those
things where they're like, well, all right, somebody, somebody got
a duy and they're not. Yeah, you know, legislation is
not going to come out to stop drinking. There's like, no,
these guys broke the rules of gambling. But gambling is
illegal as long as you don't do things illegally. If
you cheat, that's illegal. That's how I think it's gonna
be approached.
Speaker 4 (38:57):
I agree.
Speaker 8 (38:58):
I think it's gonna be something where they be a
little more strict with injuries and how they report news
and stuff, because that is you know, the leagues just
have to be a lot stricter and tighter on all
of that stuff when people are gambling millions of dollars
on every single game. But yeah, I the reaction to
it is always so over the top both ways, where
(39:18):
it's like people are like, you gotta ban gambling, gambling
is ruined sports, and then you gotta people are like, oh,
this is absolute, no problem. It's somewhere in the middle,
like everything in life. I don't think it's gonna change
anything long term. I think it's more like on the league,
and it's basically on Adam Silver and the different commissioners
of each league.
Speaker 4 (39:35):
You are taking the money in from.
Speaker 8 (39:36):
Gambling advertising, right like you are getting the benefits of
legalized gambling. You are now have to you have to
take the extra steps to make sure the integrity of
your game is not taking advantage.
Speaker 4 (39:48):
Of in any way. That's on you. That's not on me.
Speaker 8 (39:51):
Guy who's gambling on props, who wants to be able
to gamble legally, I have.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
No I did nothing here.
Speaker 8 (39:58):
It's on you to make sure that you're game has
the integrity and doesn't have anything going on that's that's illegal.
Speaker 6 (40:04):
Did you ever put a parlay together where you felt
like this is so crazy. I wouldn't be surprised if
the betting app flagged this, because that's how some of
these guys got caught. Like the parlay was so suspicious
that the app was like, no, no, we're not paying you.
Speaker 4 (40:22):
No.
Speaker 8 (40:22):
I I'm the type I get the uh I get
the hot tips after everyone in the world's gotten it.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Yeah, where it's like hey this guy.
Speaker 8 (40:33):
Yeah, yeah, Like once I have the hot tip, it's like, oh,
the whole world has already figured this out, and it's
already been baking the line, and so.
Speaker 4 (40:41):
People always think that they have like some tips or something.
Speaker 8 (40:44):
It's like they already had figured this out. The line
already reflects this so, but yeah, I think that uh,
the overreaction. And you know, obviously people will call me
a hypocrite because I you know, we draftings the sponsor
of ours. I actually think I'm the only one who's
not hypocript because I've been gambling long before.
Speaker 4 (41:02):
And I've been losing long before that. I've been losing
for two plus decades.
Speaker 8 (41:06):
And I'm like, hey, dude, I've never once said that
I know the answer to the question of like a
winner or.
Speaker 4 (41:13):
Anything like that. I lose. I'm a loser. I like
to do it. It's my only hobby. You can decide
to do it as well, or you can decide not
to do it. I don't care. It's a free country.
Speaker 3 (41:22):
I just want to say, as a parting note here,
my big play last weekend was teasing the Dallas Denver
over down and teasing the Bears up to eight and
a half and they had they had first in goal
with a minute left and couldn't get in the end
zone from the one inch line. Caleb Williams destroyed my Sunday.
(41:46):
They score there, pot of gold.
Speaker 4 (41:49):
This there.
Speaker 1 (41:49):
I'm down to the day killed me. Your team killed me.
Does it hurt to hear it, and you've got to
watch this every Sunday.
Speaker 8 (42:01):
Yeah, yeah, there's they were garbage on offense on something,
but you know the saying, the only.
Speaker 4 (42:06):
Thing you teases yourself, So just stop doing teasers. That's
not I'm me.
Speaker 1 (42:09):
Okay. That's good advice from Big Cap, brought to you
by Yingling this morning on DV. Thanks buddy. Have a
good weekend, all right, See you guys.
