Speaker 3 (00:20):
Pittsburgh.

Speaker 4 (00:23):
Like, I have trouble with like subtle greens and reds
and everything like that, So it's always a.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
Fight between us whenever we're doing anything like this.

Speaker 4 (00:30):
But like she's like, oh, like you, like your opinion
is so bad, Like you don't know what you're talking about.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
I'm color blind. Are a pair of glasses you can
buy to to like even out your color blindness.

Speaker 4 (00:43):
I've heard of such a thing, but I don't want
to spend the money. Like it's not that bad, Like
I can tell Abby's hats blue, but like that's that's
about the extent of it.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
But like, why why are you asking my opinion? Why
are you even asked? I'd like, why show me? Why
show me?

Speaker 5 (01:00):
How many fingers do I have? In your way?

Speaker 6 (01:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:03):
I have a disability?

Speaker 7 (01:08):
What you sound like you're talking to your wife right now?

Speaker 6 (01:11):
I am.

Speaker 3 (01:11):
We didn't do anything, I understand. I'm really out.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
It's like asking a guy with eighty HD to read
board games.

Brandy Bellman and the DV Morning Show.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
Six forty five. Today, Merril Hodge Dang seven forty five.
Mark Madden will be on with this in the nine
o'clock hour as well. I went to see Paul McCartney
at PPG Paints Arena last night.

Speaker 5 (01:40):
The videos looked awesome, Sir Paul. He was really really good.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
It's crazy to me that at that age he's singing,
playing bass, playing guitar, playing piano on every song. He's
singing and playing on every song, and at that age
is eighty three. I thought it was, but it's eighty three. Yeah,
someone's almost eighty four. It's eighty three. He did songs

(02:05):
that I wouldn't have thought he would have even tried
at this age, like Helter Skelter and he did. He
did Blackbird. And when he did Blackbird and I think
we posted that on the DV socials. He he kind
of showed his age a little bit there. He sounded
like an old man singing Blackbird to me, but plenty
of other stuff like baby, you can drive my car

(02:27):
and stuff like that. You know what's interesting too that
they did, which was really effective, is one of his
guitar players and I can't remember those guys' names, but
they've been in his band for a long time. The
drummer and the two guitar players have been with him forever.
And the one guy has the identical vocal tone to
Paul McCartney singing harmony, like high harmony, so like on

(02:50):
Baby you Can Drive My Car, Well, it's the exact
same on So it enables Paul to sing all the
low parts. Okay, so and it still sounds like Paul
McCartney is singing the high parts because that guy sounds
identical to him, and he's just a ripping guitar player.
But you know, there's no complaints with the set list,
that's for sure. I mean he starts with help you know,

(03:11):
oh man, it has to.

Speaker 8 (03:13):
Just be a bop. The whole time it was.

Speaker 3 (03:15):
I mean there was like three or four songs where
he like was like, you're not going to know this one,
but you know what, I'm gonna do it anyway. I
don't care.

Speaker 5 (03:24):
He was like kind of funny with the crowd like
that all night.

Speaker 3 (03:26):
And the crowd age it was definitely median age was
above sixty, I would say, yeah. And it was most
notable when we were trying to get into the arena
and people who are not used to using digital ticketing,
and the fact that he can't have a bag the
size of you know, Jack Kerouax on the road like.

Speaker 9 (03:48):
You You couldn't unlock his android.

Speaker 3 (03:51):
All of that. Yeah. So the line to get in
was forty minutes on the bottom part. It was quicker
if you went up top, but that it's just insane,
like a lot of.

Speaker 5 (04:03):
Time waiting to get in, big line for the elevator.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Oh, the escalator, you know when on the bottom part escalator, Yeah,
nobody was walking up those steps, dude. It was a
big center, AB Center ab in Yeah, fifth coming down. Yeah,
So that and understanding they were standing almost the entire time.

(04:27):
The crowd stood for most of the show. On the floor.
On the sides, they stood for half the show, which
I was also surprised at.

Speaker 5 (04:36):
But I think people were just in such awe.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
Anytime you get to see Paul McCartney and it's like,
oh my god, I'm seeing a real Beatle. And he
did that one song and I can't remember the name
of it that they put out not long ago that
John had written a long time ago. They never released it,
and he and Ringo went in and punched it up
and they used like some AI on it.

Speaker 10 (04:54):
I remember what song you're talking about. I couldn't tell
you the title.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
This video playing behind them, and I don't know if
it was released at the time, and I feel like
I had seen it before, but it was definitely augmented
with a whole bunch of new graphics that accompanied it.
And it's like the old John Like era Magical Mystery Tour,
the old George Harrison, same digitally restored. It looks like

(05:20):
it was filmed yesterday with old Ringo and old Paul
McCartney in the video, like playing with them in a band.
Oh wow. And as he sang the song and it
synced up perfectly to them playing it live.

Speaker 5 (05:35):
And I was just the entire time, I was nerded
it out.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
Thinking how did they They must have clicked that in
in their ears and then fired the video at the
exact same time, and they must have like the drummer
must be playing on a click. Something's got because it
was right in time with the video. It's like you're
watching them perform at live and everyone on the screen
is singing it exactly back to you. And it had
a lot of weird AI stuff in that video, like

(05:59):
it reanimated John and George a bunch of.

Speaker 5 (06:02):
Times and stuff like that, which I didn't love.

Speaker 8 (06:05):
It probably feels weird and also amazing.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
That's exactly what it was. It was like, I don't
want to like this slop, but.

Speaker 10 (06:16):
Like Prince with a selfie stick, you know whatever, that
Rod Stewart thing.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
Was forever with Jupac. It was not that, but that
in two other songs he played that I didn't know
really really well. Otherwise, I can't believe how many Wings
fans I saw. There was tons of people wearing Wings
shirts and Wings hats and stuff non ironically, no, they

(06:42):
like I mean, I don't dislike wings. It's just.

Speaker 8 (06:46):
Paul McCartney.

Speaker 5 (06:47):
You're thinking Beatles, you know.

Speaker 3 (06:49):
And he did Jet and he did Band on the
Run and he did what's the one Someone's knocking do?

Speaker 11 (06:59):
Well?

Speaker 7 (06:59):
But don't you think there's a lot of Wings fans
because the Wings were a thing for longer than the
Beatles were, like, because I look at it, like, were
my mom, Well, I don't know how long were we
I don't think they were wings together. I thought they
were like the Beatles were only together for eight years.

Speaker 6 (07:15):
No.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
Nineteen uh, sixty four or like sixty three until nineteen
Well no, yeah was ten years.

Speaker 5 (07:26):
Okay, yeah they were.

Speaker 7 (07:28):
Because I think of it because my mom is a
Wings fan, right, and I think of it as Joe
Iello started at Mineo's and then walked up the street
and started Iellos, and we grew up on Iellos because
that's just we were following Joe. And my mom loved
Paul McCartney and then he moved on from the Beatles
and started Wings and it's like, all right, now we

(07:51):
like Wings.

Speaker 3 (07:51):
And she loved Iellows Wings and Iellow did they have
They didn't have wings in Iellows.

Speaker 5 (07:57):
I don't they miss an opportunity, it really did. Their
mom would loaded up.

Speaker 3 (08:00):
Oh my god. They weren't wing Dings though, And that's
really her At this point, I don't know mylar to
comprement comprehend Wing Dings is still it's a personal fault.
I have the best. But at any rate, the show
was amazing the entire time. You just kind of like,
is that really Paul McCartney still singing those songs? He
kind of looks like my grandmother, Like he's got that

(08:23):
irish kind of look.

Speaker 6 (08:24):
To him.

Speaker 5 (08:24):
You know those Liverpudlians are all basically irish and all.

Speaker 9 (08:29):
Their aging spots start to merge.

Speaker 3 (08:31):
Yeah. I mean it's like a snow leopard, like his
not child, just his face. It just it looked like
my grandmother. It's hard to explain my grandmother also very
talented singer songwriter. Uh. Three hour concert for a guy
in that age, it's pretty remarkable, Pretty remarkable eighty three.

(08:52):
Just the fact that he was playing bass guitar and
then playing guitar. He's soloing, doing some ripping guitar solos
eighty three.

Speaker 10 (08:59):
I don't think he gets thought of when you think
of somebody who can solo.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
No. He goes and I can't remember what song it was.
I think it might have been let me roll it
to you. Uh. He'd put like a little tag on
it of Hendricks Foxy Lady, and then soloed over it.

Speaker 12 (09:18):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
And then at the end of it he's like, this
was Jimmy Hendricks. Yeah, you didn't know, And he was like,
very funny. He just told the story about the first
time he saw Hendrix and it's kind of a famous
story at this point, but he retold it.

Speaker 5 (09:34):
He did so.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
School, gymnasium or where where. Well, it was in a
club in London, and it was like it was kind
of like a vip room and there was not anybody really,
you know, it's like the Stones hung out there, the
Beatles hung out there, and there was only like twenty
people there. And then Jimmy Hendrix and Mitch Mitchell and
Noel Redding set up and they're all like, oh my,
what is this And he made that he made the

(09:57):
sound of Jimmy plugging in his guitar. He's like, it
is could be loud because when he plugged in, it
was like oh yeah, like it just the sound of
him plugging in was left. And then he's like, oh cools.
The next night, everybody was the Pete Townshend. Jeff book
was the Jimmy page, you know, and he clept and

(10:18):
he just goes through the list of all the people
and everyone's like the Queen, Oh my god, Benjamin Disraeli.
So it was everything you'd expected a Paul McCartney performance.
The only thing I'll say is this is entirely too expensive.
It's so expensive to go to that show. It bums

(10:42):
me out.

Speaker 9 (10:42):
How much.

Speaker 10 (10:43):
Oh I mean, when we were looking at them. I
mean we had a story. I thought that it was
like three hundred bucks.

Speaker 8 (10:51):
You on a lower end.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
Yeah, that was face value, secondary market, five hundred for nosebleeds.
On the secondary mark. If you wanted to sit behind
the stage and not be able to you would be
able to watch a TV and be behind the stage. Basically,
that was two hundred dollars last night. That's just too
much money that, yeah, to be behind him. And the

(11:14):
first time he played here at PPG Pains Arena, which
was the first concert ever at PPG Paints Arena. He
it was also stupid expensive, just crazy, and I.

Speaker 7 (11:24):
That made more sense right, new venue. He's however, many
years younger. When did that open PPG.

Speaker 5 (11:31):
Like earlyteen years ago?

Speaker 3 (11:34):
I think, oh, that's it. I think, yeah, I.

Speaker 8 (11:36):
Was gonna guess twelve, but let's.

Speaker 9 (11:38):
Yeah, that makes sense.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
Yeah, I think it was right around twenty ten. But
he was amazing. The setlist was great, the band is awesome.
It's weird seeing a beatle anytime you can still see
a beatle. I think that's the last time I'm paying
a lot of money to see a legend like that. Like,
I really didn't think i'd ever see him again, you

(12:00):
know what I mean. So it's like, yeah, this is it.
I'm gonna go. Well, how much more touring could he do?
He's eighty three, I don't know. He's running around the stage.
He's singing Jet Jet like all the like. Oh when
you say running, no, he's like like like a Johnt
like jaunting.

Speaker 5 (12:22):
I have trouble with a jaunt.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Like.

Speaker 8 (12:24):
His cholesterol is lower than mine.

Speaker 5 (12:26):
Oh, there's no question about that, no question about that.

Speaker 8 (12:29):
I mean, Bartneck's is lower than mine. For some reason,
I can't Yes, it is. Oh, he's been bragging about him.

Speaker 3 (12:35):
He's lying.

Speaker 10 (12:35):
He's like Jo flying by the way Serena twenty ten.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
Yeah, uh, packed house. Got to sit next to Kinger
and his family, which was great.

Speaker 9 (12:45):
Oh awesome.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
Uh, just an amazing show. They got to do something
about getting people in and out of there. That's the
only wild.

Speaker 10 (12:53):
But you're right, it's it's also probably the age of
the audience. Like when I went in for Sabrina, Carpenter
was like, yeah.

Speaker 9 (13:03):
It definitely is.

Speaker 7 (13:05):
But but you know what's interesting because you know we
have the draft coming up, and the last home game
I saw a bunch of people for NFL films and
just with the Steelers that I know, and I stopped
a couple of people and I'm like, what are you doing?
And they're like, Oh, we're working on traffic flow right now.
We're just mapping things out and trying to figure things out.
And it was for the Green Bay game, and it

(13:27):
was an absolute disaster down there, and I was like,
what what are you guys gonna do when four hundred
thousand people show up? They're like, we have no idea
because to your point, just like old people going to
a Paul McCartney concert is a disaster. If there's ever
been a game at Akershore and PNC Park, it's.

Speaker 9 (13:51):
A total nightmare. Yes, now double it now double that?

Speaker 3 (13:55):
Yeah right, And that's the draft.

Speaker 7 (13:58):
So I don't know how that we're going to do it,
or how they're going to support like a staye AE
like venue over there by PPG, because aren't they building
one of those.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
They're building another venue across the street.

Speaker 8 (14:08):
Yeah, that's correct, you know what.

Speaker 10 (14:10):
Honestly, I was downtown this past weekend just trying to
go to that Pittsburgh Vintage mixer.

Speaker 6 (14:16):
I was.

Speaker 8 (14:17):
I picked up a friend and I was going to
that there was also a pet Expo at the same time.
I loved it.

Speaker 10 (14:22):
It was amazing. It was there was so much stuff.
I wanted to send you.

Speaker 8 (14:25):
Guys pictures every five minutes.

Speaker 10 (14:28):
There was so much funny stuff we either like either
sports memorabilia, amazing.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
Concert t shirts, TV stuff.

Speaker 6 (14:36):
You know what.

Speaker 3 (14:36):
There was.

Speaker 10 (14:37):
There was dve stuff, but I think we've all seen
it before. People send us stuff all the time, either
of old vinyl records, yeah, stuff like that, So it
wasn't anything that we haven't necessarily seen before.

Speaker 8 (14:48):
But I really did love it. And because it's at
the Convention Center, it is ever too.

Speaker 5 (14:53):
They're really cool. The people who run that are great, amazing.

Speaker 10 (14:56):
But every parking garage that could be closed was closed,
every lot that could be closed was closed.

Speaker 8 (15:02):
Every street that could be closed was closed.

Speaker 10 (15:05):
And it took us two hours to park the car
to the point where I gave up. I parked at
the Warhol and I told my friends too, I'm.

Speaker 3 (15:15):
Like, we're walking, we're walking, yeah.

Speaker 10 (15:17):
And so we walked and then I was like, not
only are we gonna go to the mixer, then we're
gonna go on to pet Expo afterwards, because now we're parked,
and then when we.

Speaker 4 (15:26):
Walk back, we're on the War Hall and we're holding
and I'm like, this shit is not ready for a draft.

Speaker 8 (15:34):
I was losing my mind. I went full Pittsburgh Dad.

Speaker 7 (15:38):
I was just like, yeah, enough everything downtown now that's
a problem.

Speaker 3 (15:43):
We're like, how are we going to deal with the draft?
They're redoing the Melon Square parking garage, the one across
from William Penn.

Speaker 9 (15:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
So that's where I usually like the park for shows
because I like to just run out of rain and
get down there and I feel like it gets you
out of traffic enough. Yeah, sure to bump that was done.
That's they're they're redoing that, probably for the draft. So
I ended up Square was being redone. Yes, So I
ended up parking down at the Oliver Street parking Garage,
which is like where Capitol Grilla is, which is like

(16:18):
a ten minute walk and it was freezing. Oh my god,
it was freezing.

Speaker 5 (16:22):
But I was walking through downtown.

Speaker 3 (16:24):
I was thinking, Yo, everybody's freaking out about downtown being
all dangerous and everything, and it was like I'm fine,
and I'm like, you know, I'm walking out because I
left a little bit early from the show. Yeah, because it, dude,
it went late. I mean, the show went late. And
I'm walking by myself and I'm like, this is fine.
Everything's fine. And so I'm at Mellon Bank Center and

(16:46):
there's like this little there's a little like stairwell that
goes down three sets to drop from the that road
that goes like around it to basically it's a stairwell
that leads you to Melon Bank Center, but it's very dark,
or I can walk all the way around and go

(17:06):
over to fifth and go down that way right. So
I'm like, because I cut it down the middle coming
out of the arena, and I'm like, I'm just gonna
keep cutting, you know, through these building squares here. And
I got to that and i was like, I'm looking
down at it, and in my head the whole time,
I was totally I went out. I was like, I

(17:28):
was looking at it. I'm like, there's probably nobody in there.
I can't see anybody, but it's three stairwells of dark,
and I'm like, if I got mugged in there, I
would deserve it, you know.

Speaker 13 (17:40):
What I mean.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
I don't know that has I wouldn't be like pittsburghw
Pittsburgh's a mass play. Any city, you probably shouldn't at
ten o'clock or whatever time. It was like ten thirty,
like walk through these dark corridors, and so I ended
up walking a long way and I just beat myself
up the whole way. You're such as.

Speaker 8 (17:58):
Now you don't know that's not in there.

Speaker 5 (18:01):
Yeah, I was so bumfed.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
But other than because I was in my head thinking
it's it's not bad. This is Downtown's fine right now.

Speaker 5 (18:09):
You know it's looking better and better.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (18:12):
Might have something to do with the fact that it
was like fifteen degrees.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
Uh. The windshow was brutal downtown.

Speaker 7 (18:18):
I think most cities are like that at ten o'clock
at night, except for maybe Boston. Boston is like, for
some reason, the safest city I've ever been in, or
at least it felt like the cleanest and safest.

Speaker 3 (18:31):
But I used to live when.

Speaker 7 (18:32):
I lived in Hollywood, I had this thing that I
would do because everybody was getting mugged. Worked at the
Improv Olympic. Improve Olympic is in like a CD part
of Hollywood. It's right on Hollywood Boulevard, and people were
just getting beat up, getting their phones taken, getting you know, mugged,
And I was like, all right, well I got a solution.
I'm gonna run full speed to my car. You're gonna

(18:54):
mug me, you got to tackle me first. Yeah, maybe
that's going to take some of the mugg and energy
out of you. You can get me in the open field,
like I still had a little bit of like a
little bit.

Speaker 3 (19:04):
Of juke move right. That's smart, that's smart.

Speaker 9 (19:08):
Never had an issue.

Speaker 3 (19:09):
Well I probably should have just done that. Here's the
set list. He played thirty five songs last night.

Speaker 8 (19:14):
Oh my God, I'm tired.

Speaker 3 (19:15):
Thirty five, thirty five, open with help. Then he played
coming Up.

Speaker 8 (19:20):
Coming Up, Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (19:23):
Yeah, it's such a good song. Got to get you
into my life. Baby, you can drive my car. Let
me letting go is a wing song, Come on, come
on over now, let me roll it, which was awesome.
That's the one my wheelchair. It's getting better all the time. Yeah,
let him in closer to Heaven, my Valentine. He dedicated
to his wife Nancy, who was in the crowd.

Speaker 8 (19:45):
La married again.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
Yeah, He's like, this was my my wife and Nancy,
she's in the crowd, and he pointed kind of like
to by to where I was sitting, and I felt
compelled to almost stand up and take my hat off.
Here I'm Nancy eighty five that he played that's my
mom's name, and then maybe I'm Amazed, which was you

(20:09):
don't know, I'm not going to tell you that I
am amazed. That is my favorite Paul McCartney song. I
love this of all time, and I was worried he
wasn't going to be able to pull it off because
he had trouble singing that back in the day. Because
his vocal performance in the studio is so great. It's like, oh, darling,
you know, it's not one that you could just rip
off live because it's so impossible to sing. But he

(20:30):
did a really good job with it. I've Just Seen
a Face, which was just awesome. He did this kind
of broken down acoustics set, like where they came out
in front and they just all played acoustics and like
the keyboard player had accordion and stuff. So they for
that they played I've Just Seen a Face, In Spite
of all the danger, Love Me Do in spite of

(20:52):
all the danger. It was so the Quarryman. It was
the first song the Beatles ever recorded. Wow, he's like,
he told the story he needed his real country sounding song.
Then he played Dance Tonight, Blackbird Here Today, which is
that it was a tribute to John Lennon. Here, do
you guys remember when he put that song out. It's

(21:13):
all about him talking to John the whole song. Yeah,
if you heard it, you would remember, okay now. And
then Lady Madonna jet being for the benefit of mister Kite.

Speaker 5 (21:24):
Which was a really interesting one to do.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
Then he did something and he did something with the
with the ukulele intro like he does for George, and
he's like, George, would you know pass out ukulele? He
gave me this ukulele and he tells the story about
how he told George one day he's like, I learned
one of your songs on the ukulele. And he starts
playing something in the way she moves, you know, he
just and then the band kicks in. Yeah, so it's

(21:48):
that's cool, so good. Then it was oh bloody Obla Dah,
band on the Run, get back, let it be Live,
and let die Hey Jude, and then the encore come
on sounded like there no, this is the encore and
it's not one song. Good night. I've got a feeling. Now,
I was gone for this.

Speaker 5 (22:09):
I've got a feeling.

Speaker 12 (22:11):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (22:12):
I like that.

Speaker 5 (22:12):
It starts with I've got a feeling.

Speaker 3 (22:14):
Maybe another one of the most difficult songs you could
possibly sing in the Beatles catalog Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts
Club Band.

Speaker 5 (22:23):
They did the reprize, the fast part, you.

Speaker 9 (22:25):
Know, late in the night. That's impressive.

Speaker 5 (22:29):
Helter skelter damn.

Speaker 9 (22:32):
Yeah, he has enough voice to do that.

Speaker 3 (22:34):
Golden Slumbers, carry that weight at the end. He did
the end of Abbey Road at the end of the show.

Speaker 9 (22:41):
Wow, damn.

Speaker 5 (22:43):
Eighty three years old.

Speaker 9 (22:46):
I mean that's his lifestyle, honestly, Like the way that
he eats and lives it is so clean, like he's
a vegan, right yep.

Speaker 3 (22:53):
Yeah, yeah, he's more limber than like anybody too. He's
like super yoga man and all that kind of stuff.
You go to State fit financy Nancy Bauma. Yeah, that's right,
Thank you, everybody, Thank you. Mike's got your sports when
we come back there. Stealer coach Tomlin talking to the
media yesterday, mister Wednesday on the way as well, it's

(23:14):
the perfect thing to obsess over.

Speaker 8 (23:16):
I've been trying for years.

Speaker 3 (23:18):

Speaker 3 (23:35):
DV from the Bridgeville Orge, Well, I'm trying to just
like replay the concert off my phone for everybody in
the studio.

Speaker 5 (23:43):
It's not doing it justice.

Speaker 10 (23:45):
That's usually such an annoying thing to do, and it's
actually really enjoyable. It's like, Okay, watch this, no, watch this,
but it's really I mean, he does sound really good
and the visuals are really cool, like they're appropriate for
every song.

Speaker 3 (23:57):
Yeah, you know, he had a really cool stage setup,
but the whole arena is just filming the concert because
you're just in awe of what it's kind of like
seeing Bigfoot. I have to take a video.

Speaker 9 (24:09):
Was he out of focus in your videos?

Speaker 3 (24:10):
He was, but he's wearing a belt so it was
easy to tell their watch. Yeah, swim covered in hair.

Speaker 8 (24:15):
He knows when it's time to hide.

Speaker 5 (24:17):
Much better swimmer than us.

Speaker 3 (24:19):
Paul mccartneyest period Mice, Got your sports Now What's Up
Sports brought to you by Bridgeville Plights.

Speaker 14 (24:25):
Aaron Rodgers played what was undoubtedly the worst of his
nine games with the Steelers in Sunday Nights twenty five
ten loss in LA. But Steelers, said coach Mike Tomlin
emphasized yesterday he is not interpreting the result as the
possible beginning of the end for his soon to be
forty two year old QB.

Speaker 15 (24:43):
Sunday night was what it was. But I have no
long term reservations about his ability to play the position
and play the position at a high level for us.

Speaker 14 (24:53):
Well, he's got to be right about that. If they're
gonna make anything of this season. That's the first thing.
Rogers says, to play well for them to win. Yeah,
I mean any quarterback has to play well for any
team to win.

Speaker 5 (25:06):
Rogers in particularly for this one.

Speaker 7 (25:08):
Well, I mean one in three in his last four.
I mean, we got to write the rudder pretty quick here.

Speaker 3 (25:13):
By the way, I saw Kinger in the bathroom at
the show last night, and I said Kinger, Paul McCartney
is two Aaron Rodgers. If Paul McCartney can play at
eight thirty at night, Aaron Rodgers should be able.

Speaker 5 (25:21):
To Yeah, nobody's trying to kill Paul McCartney.

Speaker 3 (25:24):
While he's doing it.

Speaker 1 (25:25):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (25:25):
That drummer looked like he had a look at his eye.

Speaker 7 (25:27):
If he had to run from Khalil Mack. I don't
know how good Paul McCartney would have been. There might
not have been an en Court.

Speaker 3 (25:32):
Might have been lurking off stage with a blow dart.

Speaker 5 (25:35):
I don't know. I'm going to be the last one.
The bass player blocks the blood side like he ain't
finishing the tour.

Speaker 3 (25:44):
It's a good point.

Speaker 14 (25:45):
Rogers may get a boost from the presence of a
familiar face this coming Sunday against the Bengals. If wide
receiver Marquez Valdez Scantling winds up on the active roster, we'll.

Speaker 15 (25:56):
See what the week holds for him and all the
others on practice squad Man, We're not opposed to elevating
people and giving them an opportunity to contribute. I think
it's just been been about every game this year where
we've elevated someone and and and utilized their talents.

Speaker 3 (26:11):
Last week it was.

Speaker 15 (26:13):
Mark Robins, Mark Robinson who just reacquired several other weeks Man,
it's been Trey Sermon, for example, And so I'm certainly
open to evaluate and scantling his ability to to know
what to do and the quality and that execution, and
how it might fit into what we're trying to do
offensively in an effort to engineer victory.

Speaker 5 (26:35):
Certainly now interesting there he said.

Speaker 14 (26:37):
Uh, he referenced MVS and everybody else on the practice squad.
That may or may not have been a nod to
Sante Samuel Junior.

Speaker 11 (26:46):
Uh.

Speaker 14 (26:47):
It had not yet been reported when Tomlin spoke that
he was joining the Steelers practice squad, but ESPN subsequently
reported that.

Speaker 5 (26:54):
The expendables keep expanding, man.

Speaker 9 (26:57):
Which are collecting baseball cards, aren't we?

Speaker 14 (26:59):
Well, this guy's twenty six and he's a former second
round pick, and he's a really good player if he's healthy.

Speaker 3 (27:04):
No, we know he can play corner, but houses back.

Speaker 14 (27:06):
Well, he had back surgery done by a Steelers doctor, Beckyaty.
So if anybody ought to know how his back is,
it's the Steelers, and there were teams were lined up
to get this guy. They need help a corner, I mean,
makes a lot of sense. And the MVS thing, we
talked about this yesterday. The door has kind of opened

(27:26):
for him because Keishawn Williams muffed the punt. Now, he's
been returning punts ever since Calvin Austin got hurt and
been doing a really good job at it until Sunday,
but they haven't been playing him a wide receiver.

Speaker 9 (27:41):
So if you want to make sense, if you want
to take that.

Speaker 14 (27:43):
Game day helmet away, Austin goes back to punt returns
and then mvs joins the rotation at receiver.

Speaker 7 (27:51):
Yeah, and his relationship with Rogers said should have expedite
that process. I mean, it's funny that we're playing the
Bengals this week because Joe just got to town. He
didn't know the plays, and he's still hooking up with
Chase and Higgins quite frequently. You know, the plays don't
matter as much as the chemistry.

Speaker 14 (28:09):
Tomaland was asked about Keishawn Williams in that muff punt
against the Chargers, and part of the answer was, certainly,
we'll look at this week and make plans accordingly given
what transpired in the last game. And by the way,
Austin didn't let it up at receiver either, so you know,
if you want to put him back on punts, where
he's pretty good. And if that forces them to limit

(28:31):
his role wide receiver, there's your open door for MVS.
Might be a different looking Steelers team when they take
on the Bengals Sunday, which given the one and three.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
Record in the last four games, it would returning punts
limit his play at receiver.

Speaker 5 (28:49):
Austin possibly, you know, everybody has a reps limit.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
He was the number two guy when he was returning
punts above all else.

Speaker 9 (28:57):
Isn't it just like an injury concern?

Speaker 5 (28:58):
He did it a little bit this year.

Speaker 14 (29:01):
It was a little different story last year in terms
of where he was in the receiver rotation. And then
Tom said when he came back from injury, they just
wanted him concentrating on getting back up to speed at
wide receiver. And again Williams was doing really well. But
you can't put it on the ground. You just can't
put it on the ground.

Speaker 3 (29:17):
And also, he doesn't have a proven track record in
terms of bouncing back. It's not like he's got six
years of returning that you can bank on, So you
have to You're not in a position to be able
to take a chance on him right now, even though
he might be mentally sound enough and have the fortitude
to come back and not do it again. I don't
know that you take that chance. And it's not the

(29:38):
end of the world for him.

Speaker 14 (29:38):
He's a first year guy, but it's you know, right now,
you gotta do what you gotta do. And I told
you guys when MBS got here, they didn't bring this
guy in here to be on the practice squad. Well no,
I mean he made magic with Aaron Rodgers for four years.
It was a long time ago. But got to find
out if there's any left because they got three points
when it mattered against the Chargers. Some other tidbits from

(30:01):
Tomlin yesterday. He's feeling stability with Jalen Ramsey and Kyle
Duggar at Safety. In terms of the health status for
the upcoming week, Cole Holcom will be limited to start,
uh Jabrill Pepper's limited to start, Isaac Saamalo limited, but
they are optimistic about his return. And Scotty Miller has

(30:23):
been cleared with his broken finger. Yeah, I mean, Scotty
Miller is a nice, complimentary contributor, but he's not a
needle mover.

Speaker 3 (30:32):
Kind of let down.

Speaker 7 (30:33):
I thought he was gonna I thought he was gonna
mean a little more to this offense. Training camp preseason.

Speaker 5 (30:39):
Well, in training camp, everybody looks like they're all pro.

Speaker 3 (30:43):
Yeah they really do, don't they.

Speaker 9 (30:44):
Yeah, it's uh Nate Washington disease.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
Yeah, he's gonna make a big splash this year. You
watched certain days, everybody has a day. Abbey's got your
news Top of the Hour.

Speaker 10 (30:54):
A wild sight of a car hanging out of a
Pittsburgh garage yesterday.

Yes, sure, looking.

Speaker 3 (32:44):
Mister Wells, Well, you've got them. Jeff concle istory out there, everybody,
it's it's cold out there. What's going on?

Speaker 5 (32:52):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (32:53):
I hate coming in when like, nothing interesting has happened
to me, but like, you know, last week it's pretty typical,
just grocery shopping, Rake the Leaves got invited to an
underground ping pong fight club. The third thing my neighbor
got me all tangled up in this subterranean, suburban adult
ping pong league last week.

Speaker 3 (33:15):
Okay, So so.

Speaker 4 (33:17):
Last week, like he you know, I have a little
ping pong like an outside ping pong table, and like
my neighbor and I were playing. He's like, you know,
I played with a couple of guys you know, every
so often, Like you wanna you wanna come join us?
And I was like, uh yeah, yeah, I'll definitely do it.
And then of course he invites me one week and
I still have something going on, invites me another week.
I have something going on. So last week he's just like, hey,
what are you Are you gonna you're gonna come out

(33:38):
or come out or what?

Speaker 9 (33:38):
And I was like yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (33:40):
So at dinner he texts me it's it's real ominous
from here. He just texted me a random address and
says be here at seventy five And I'm like, what
is this a ransom?

Speaker 3 (33:51):
Money? Like no, cops like you so well.

Speaker 4 (33:58):
So it might have been like a rec center, but
it was somebody's house. So I'm like, all right, it's
just at somebody's house. I'm strapped exactly what you don't
come at all, right? And so so he says, you know,
seven forty five, definitely be there as sharp, like that's
when it starts.

Speaker 3 (34:11):
So what do I do?

Speaker 4 (34:12):
Of course I slow roll that and I'm like, I'm
not showing up at seven forty five on the dot.
I'm showing up ten minutes late so that the the
people and the party can arrive and everything like that.
So I go there at seven fifty five. I type
it in the ways. I'm driving by this house. It's
a cold, blustery night, like there's nothing that the streets
are dark, and I'm driving by this house and I
think is the address, and I'm like, uh, I go,

(34:36):
there's nobody at this house. It's there's no cars in
the driveway. The door is open, and there's like a
little light on the k.

Speaker 3 (34:45):
An abandoned house? Is it? Like it's not an.

Speaker 4 (34:47):
Abandoned house, but it's just there was no lights like
on it was not a like if a party just
swinging exactly back and forth exactly.

Speaker 7 (34:56):
That is a red flag in the suburbs. If you
don't have landscape lighting.

Speaker 4 (35:00):
Hell, there's no uplighting on your elderberry bushes, then your
as the kids say.

Speaker 3 (35:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (35:07):
But so I call my neighbor and I'm like, hey,
I don't think I have the right house. And he goes, no,
that's the right house. And I go, well, where's your car?
And he goes, I'm picking my daughter up from basketball practice.
I'm not gonna be there for like twenty minutes. And
I know what you're thinking. You're like, why didn't you
just leave then? And I was like, well, I don't know,
Like maybe they're counting on me at this point, Like

(35:28):
I don't know if there's brackets, if they're seating, if
I'm like the fourth guy that needs to help move
a heavy.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
Arm wire or something like that. I don't know anything
that's going on.

Speaker 4 (35:37):
So I'm sitting in the driveway and I'm like trying
to psych myself up to walk into a strange house.
And I feel like I'm Karen and Goodfellows just like
just go down there, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:46):
Just go down there.

Speaker 4 (35:48):
That's okaye going Yeah. So I'm psyching myself up. I'm
like doing all this positive self talk in the car.
I'm like, it's okay, just walk into the stranger's house.
You've never been here before, but people like you, people
like talking to you.

Speaker 3 (35:59):
So I walk.

Speaker 4 (36:03):
I was I was like, still on the phone with
my friend, and I'm just like, I was like, ago,
does he know this? This guy know that I'm coming.
And he goes, well, he knows I'm bringing somebody, and
I'm like, yeah, but you're not here. You're like, if
I'm a plus one at a wedding, I don't just
show up without the escort.

Speaker 3 (36:18):
That's the whole point of being escorted.

Speaker 4 (36:20):
So again, cold blustery night, I pop my hoodie up
because I'm bald, I got no hat on. So you know,
I'm walking up to this guy's house in a hoodie,
holding a paddle, just looking like I'm like a frat
pledge master from nineteen eighty eight.

Speaker 3 (36:34):
About their first bankfest.

Speaker 4 (36:39):
So of course I'm like, you know, going around the
house and trying to you know, get get up to
the storm door. And I'm greeted at the door by
you know what else but a rather large, muscular looking
pit bull mix and you know what, pitbull mixes love.

Speaker 3 (36:53):
Skittish people lurking around their house.

Speaker 7 (36:56):
Hold show objects holding potential weapons.

Speaker 4 (37:00):
So the guy comes to the door, and of course
all my fears were completely misplaced.

Speaker 3 (37:05):
He was like the nicest guy ever.

Speaker 4 (37:07):
But I also found like this, Like, so I go
into the house and we're making small talk, and it
just dawned on me that, like, this is the whole
point of small talk. Like, do you know people who
are just like I hate small talk. I hate making
small talk. It's like, well, that's because you suck and
you're rude, Like that's why you hate small talk. Small
talk is the I could not have gotten out of

(37:29):
that incredibly. It's not that they were making it awkward.
It was just an awkward situation. So I'm having to
talk about where your kids go to school, who plays sports,
and everything like that, And that's the whole point of
small talk. You can't get right into it. You need
a little off ramp to kind of exactly like social graces. Man,
you got to know how to navigate that situation. If
you don't know somebody, you don't walk up to him

(37:50):
and say hi, my name's Jeff Israel or Palestine, Like
that's not that's not how that works.

Speaker 3 (37:55):
You have to kind of feel people out.

Speaker 4 (37:57):
So other people start arriving at the end ground ping
Pong flight fight Club, and I am like woefully mismatched
because they're all carrying black satchels. Oh yeah, everyone's got
a little black satchel, and I'm just like kind of
waving around my like you know, lucy cigarette, frigging ping
pong battle. So all various dimensions, like people are opening

(38:17):
up and there's golden lights showing out of it, like
the briefcase in pulp fiction. One guy had this old
wooden paddle that looked like it was carved from the
same wood as Robert Redford's bat in the Natural Like
it was carved, it was hewn from a piece of
redwood that was struck by lightning. But the long story
short is that, like it was a totally pleasant time.

(38:39):
It got really overly competitive for a bunch of like
forty one year old guys. They're like people were sweating
at the at the end of this session. But it
was just the lead up that was like so unbelievably harrowing,
and but it turned out to be great.

Speaker 3 (38:52):
So that was what was fun about it. How did
you perform? I went to two and four.

Speaker 4 (38:56):
I kind of went in there thinking like, well, I
was invited, so I'm probably gonna I'm probably gonna smoke
some people.

Speaker 3 (39:02):
And it didn't happen.

Speaker 4 (39:03):
I was like, I do, like, really, the logic of
that is completely backwards, Like you're being invited to a
group of guys who are already extremely proficient.

Speaker 3 (39:13):
So yeah, I got absolutely smoked.

Speaker 4 (39:15):
And of course, you know they're all waving their custom
ping pong pads around and I'm like.

Speaker 3 (39:18):
I got mine at Dunham's the same whatsoever?

Speaker 6 (39:25):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (39:25):
You know Frank Calando when he iss the town, he
goes and plays with the Sea Miller family.

Speaker 4 (39:30):
But they're like like ultra experts, right, Yeah, these were
the Olympians, intermediate intermediate people high high intermediate. I would say, yeah,
we're not part of the full Pittsburgh underground scene yet.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
But it was just ping pong. It was just ping pong. Yeah,
we didn't move an arm wire after.

Speaker 5 (39:46):
Is there music playing while ping pong is going on?

Speaker 3 (39:48):
No, which I found to be lacking.

Speaker 4 (39:50):
Yeah, just speaking of lubrication, if we're trying to make
some like it depends the music is a personal choice too.
And if somebody puts on you know, Neil Simon or
something like that, are or Paul Simon or something that
doesn't really fit the vibe either, or how about goodbye horses, you.

Speaker 3 (40:05):
Know what I mean?

Speaker 4 (40:06):
Like you put on the silence of a lambsong. Guys
ready to play some ping punk. Turn out the lights,
everybody put your night vision goggles on you.

Speaker 5 (40:13):
Yeah, Abby's got your knees.

Speaker 8 (40:15):
Next, your new Miss World is a heavy metal queen.

Speaker 10 (40:19):
And we're gonna talk about that wild site of the
car hanging out of the pictures yesterday, those bananas.

Speaker 16 (40:25):
It's time for the Steelers Daily Report on DVE, brought
to you by your neighborhood Fords Store and Steelers Pro Shop.
Get it direct from the team at shop dot Steelers
dot com. Here's Tom Opperman.

Speaker 17 (40:36):
The Steelers added to their secondary yesterday evening when the
team signed twenty six year old cornerback of Sante Samuel
Junior to the practice squad. Samuel Junior has spent each
of his prior four seasons in the NFL with the
LA Chargers, starting forty seven games over those seasons, racking
up six interceptions and thirty seven passes defense. Samuel only
played in four games last year before suffering a shoulder
injury that.

Speaker 3 (40:56):
Would sideline him for the rest of the season.

Speaker 17 (40:58):
He underwent spinal fusion surgery this past April, hence the
reason a young, talented corner was still available to sign
this late in the season. With Darius Lay in the
concussion protocol and the Steelers being thin at the cornerback
position thanks to the move of Jalen Ramsey to safety,
a Sante Samuel Junior should be able to help that
cornerback room, and his elevation from the practice squad to

(41:19):
the active rosters should be coming soon. Elsewhere in Steelers Country,
head coach Mike Tomlin addressed the media for his weekly
press conference yesterday, and he updated the news on the
injury front. Mike Tomlin is optimistic that guard Isaac Samali
will be able to play as he's trying to return
from a peck injury. Sainty Gabriel Peppers an inside linebacker
Cole Hulkom are also trending back as they'll begin this

(41:39):
week of practice in a limited capacity.

Speaker 5 (41:42):
I'm Tom Offerman with your Steelers Report.

Speaker 3 (41:48):
Old Ringo and Old Paul McCartney in the video like
playing with them in a band. Oh wow. And as
he sang the song and it synced up perfectly to
them playing it live. Was just the entire time I
was nerded out thinking how did they must have clicked
that in in their ears and then fired the video
at the exact same time, and they must have like

(42:09):
the drummer must be playing on a click. Something's got
because it was right in time with the video. It's
like you're watching them perform it live and everyone on
the screen is singing it exactly back to you. And
it had a lot of weird AI stuff in that video,
like it reanimated John and George a bunch of times
and stuff like that, which I didn't love.

Speaker 8 (42:30):
It probably feels weird and also amazing.

Speaker 5 (42:33):
That's exactly what it was. It was like, I don't
want to like this slop, but.

Speaker 10 (42:41):
Prince with a selfie stick, you know, or whatever. That
Rod Steward thing.

Speaker 2 (42:44):
Was with Tupac, Brandy Bellman and the DV Morning.

Speaker 3 (42:52):
Show The Paul McCartney set list last night. Help coming up,
got to get you into my life? Baby, you can
drive my car, letting go, come on to me, let
me roll it getting better all the time.

Speaker 5 (43:04):
Let him in.

Speaker 3 (43:07):
My Valentine nineteen hundred and eighty five. Maybe I'm amazed.
I've just seen a face falling. Yes, I'm falling in
spite of all the danger, which is the first song
they ever recorded, Love Me Do Dance Tonight, Blackbird Here
Today Now, and then Lady Madonna Jet Being for the
benefit of mister Kite something, Oh blood oblad band on

(43:30):
the run, get back, let it be live, and let die.

Speaker 5 (43:35):
May Jude, I've got a and this is the encore.
I've got a feeling.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts club band, Helter Skelter, Golden Slumbers,
carry that weight the end, get out of here. Yeah
that's pretty.

Speaker 5 (43:48):
He is eighty three years old.

Speaker 3 (43:51):
He played bass, guitar or piano on every single song
and sang every single song.

Speaker 9 (43:58):
And then broke the stage down he did, which was incredible.

Speaker 4 (44:01):
Yes, I suffered from, you know, a little bit of
what do I want to call it, like beatles ambivalence.
And I think the reason why is because when I
was coming up in music, everyone compared or everyone basically said,
like you like, you gotta like if you don't like
the Beatles, then you have no taste in music, And
I was like, oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (44:22):
And so I just recoiled at it.

Speaker 4 (44:24):
But go going through that list and just hearing some
of those songs, like hearing Paul McCartney sing Blackbird at
the end. I mean, I've heard Blackbird a million times,
but it's still I would like, really have liked to
have seen that hearing him do that with his like
voice breaking up. Yes he's doing it because he's eighty three,

(44:45):
Johnny Cash doing hurt.

Speaker 3 (44:47):
It was I mean, I think I have it. I
think I can play it here, but it's like off
my phone. I don't know if it's going to work
too well. But he was also suspended in air, which
was kind of crazy. Wait what ink does whenever you waiting,

(45:15):
he's flying around the crowd. Yes, he's flying around the ground. No, No,
he's he was on a platform and it's slowly going
up until he's about what's really Yeah.

Speaker 17 (45:26):
Look you.

Speaker 9 (45:28):
Expressive FURNI good.

Speaker 3 (45:30):
Yeah, I feel like you need to be clipped in.
And then under the stage as it rows up in
the sky led monitors are underneath it and there's like
blackbirds flying.

Speaker 1 (45:45):
Fun that.

Speaker 3 (45:58):
I think he screwed up one thing on a tar
I got working.

Speaker 9 (46:05):
Perfectly, imperfect.

Speaker 8 (46:20):
Fun fun, it's just not.

Speaker 3 (46:32):
Yeah, so pretty pretty good.

Speaker 4 (46:33):
It's weird to hear that stadium or that arena that
enraptured and quiet like and respectfully because yeah, yeah, that's nuts.

Speaker 7 (46:42):
Can I ask you a question that has really nothing
to do with singing or a song list or anything
like that? Was there a lot of coughing? Because my
experience is anybody around that age can't talk so long
without coughing.

Speaker 3 (46:58):
Oh, I thought you met in the audience, in the
audience everywhere, like just in general, I think he did
pretty good. Yeah, people around know, they were yeah, that
was bad. There was here. The worst is so I
was telling you that the average age is like sixty plus.

(47:18):
So it took forever to get in because nobody knew
how to use their phones for their ticketing. And they brought,
you know, duffel bags like they were going to a
hockey tournament and you're not. You're not allowed to do
any of that.

Speaker 5 (47:31):
You know, you can't bring bags in.

Speaker 3 (47:32):
And every time some of these older people needed to
get up and down and go to the bathroom. I
mean it was it was like a parade of people,
and then you couldn't get mad because a lot of
times they needed help, you know, and so but like
it would just be like they're playing a song. You're like,
this is my favorite song, and they would be like

(47:53):
five people walk in front of you like elephants.

Speaker 6 (47:56):
Just how you do that.

Speaker 3 (48:01):
Invite my section of the Steelers game? Believe me?

Speaker 5 (48:08):
This was coming up, which was the second song of
the night.

Speaker 6 (48:25):
Cough.

Speaker 3 (48:27):
He said, he was fin this song is about Flynn
coming up, coming up, coming out there, My gird, there
it is.

Speaker 5 (48:35):
Abby's got a news update for you, Gird singing in
the he.

Speaker 10 (48:41):
This hour brought you by Keystone Basement Systems with Basement
Keystone Basement Systems dot Com.

Speaker 8 (48:45):
Mostly cloudy and breezy with a shower today in.

Speaker 10 (48:47):
A high A fifty, A vehicle was hanging out of
a parking garage for hours in Pittsburgh on Tuesday. A
U p MC spokesperson said a driver rear ended a
parked vehicle in the South Achin garage in Oakland. Vehicle
that was hit was pushed into a concrete barrier which

(49:08):
fell to the ground.

Speaker 9 (49:09):
Oh my god.

Speaker 10 (49:10):
Police taped off the garage until Toad trucks could remove
both vehicles, but a UPMC employee said the crash sounded
like an explosion. Crews spent a couple hours securing the cars,
clearing debris, and then getting the cars towed away.

Speaker 5 (49:25):
Now this is the I'm guessing the parking lot at
the professional building, not the.

Speaker 8 (49:29):
Hospital, because I'm trying to a in there.

Speaker 3 (49:34):
Yeah, it's all right around the corner though, right. My
dermatologist is there. And that parking lot is the worst
parking lot in America.

Speaker 9 (49:42):
The one that goes down and it's outside and.

Speaker 3 (49:46):
As you're turning left to make the circles going down,
there are cars coming up at you. It's all times
out room and you have to like, if it's your
first time in there, you very easily could get in
an accident. Oh yeah, and they have been redoing that,
so I'm guessing that's the one it was. It wasn't
the hospital side. I think you're correct, but that it
is completely destroyed.

Speaker 4 (50:07):
It's like, oh yeah, almost trying to back out and
then through it and drive and gund it or something
like that.

Speaker 3 (50:14):
You got to hit. I mean, that's pretty hard. Panels
off the anchors. I was probably saying people who were
blocking up the aisles last night.

Speaker 8 (50:24):
I mean the air bags went off, so you have
to hit it really hard.

Speaker 7 (50:28):
And it's in the like that Bermuda Triangle of Pittsburgh
where it's like Oakland, Shady Side, Bloomfield, Friendship, Yeah, right,
East Liberty, Yeah, what are we bomb Boulevard Intersex with
the nexus of the Universe.

Speaker 3 (50:40):
But that parking lot, once you get to the bottom,
it's like you could go out that one far side
and but what's that tur or that the school Winston
Thurston whatever. Yeah, yeah, it's like it butts up against
that and that looks like the easiest way to make
an escape, and there's always a fence there and you're like, oh,
I could avoid going up that spiral of death parking

(51:03):
garage if they would just open this up. And they don't,
and they never do, and there's always construction in there.
And it amazes me that a hospital makes you do
such a dangerous thing before you enter it.

Speaker 4 (51:15):
It's like it's like, uh, you know, uh, you have
to dodge uh you know, girder turts you know, on
you before because it's i mean, you know, think of
who's going to those doctor's offices.

Speaker 3 (51:28):
Most of the time. It's not like a J. Foyt.
You know, these are people Max.

Speaker 7 (51:35):
It's people that that's that's moles have changed slightly and
it's concerning.

Speaker 5 (51:40):
It's a big band, big band, aid p face ratio.

Speaker 3 (51:43):
Yes all right.

Speaker 10 (51:46):
Bernandez, a contestant in the Miss World Chile pageant who
surprise the judges and viewers with a crushing death metal
performance during the semi finals last week, has been crowned
the winner of the entire competition.

Speaker 8 (52:01):
You get to hear her.

Speaker 3 (52:02):
No, first of all, she's gorgeous.

Speaker 8 (52:05):
Like stupid. It's unbelievable how pretty she is.

Speaker 5 (52:08):
Stupid gorgeous. Keep that in mind when you hear this.

Speaker 9 (52:10):
Let me see what's her name again?

Speaker 10 (52:12):
Her name is h Ignacia so I g N A
c I A. Fernandez. Take a listen.

Speaker 3 (52:23):
Oh yeah, look how happy Paul McCartney did this in
the encore. Yeah he's China. Clear his throat, just type

(52:48):
of Chile.

Speaker 8 (52:52):
This is her band.

Speaker 9 (52:53):
This is her band bang.

Speaker 7 (52:58):
Oh wow.

Speaker 8 (53:04):
I can not tell you how many people sent that
to me and wrote, I think you'll like this. Okay.

Speaker 10 (53:11):
So she's twenty seven years old. The name of her
band is called Deceas US and and she had her
guitarist come on stage and that was basically her talent portion.

Speaker 3 (53:25):
Wow. Wow.

Speaker 4 (53:27):
I feel like the metal scene in other countries has
to be insane, Like like I was looking this up
last night, all these like metal festivals and they're all
in like Stockholm and Japan and Sweden stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (53:39):
But all those Nordic metal bands, like one out of
every five of those bands the lead singer is an
actual murderer. It seems like these guys go to jail
inspiration somewhere and you're.

Speaker 8 (53:50):
More like Nordic areas Yales.

Speaker 10 (53:53):
Yeah, but to your point, like Mexico and South America,
like those countries the metal scene.

Speaker 8 (54:02):
Is so intense.

Speaker 3 (54:03):
Yeah, yeah, what is it? What the washing is?

Speaker 8 (54:06):
Like, I don't know why really really works there.

Speaker 10 (54:09):
I was in a death metal band in like the
like twenty ten's and I remember like all of the
potential bookings that were out of the country. They were like, no,
we do nothing in the United States, but let me
show you what the numbers are outside of the United States,
especially in South America, And I'm like.

Speaker 4 (54:28):
What, like they were plus you see in crowd like
at like a it'll be like a you know a
Ryan Adams show and they're like mashing and you're like wow,
like nobody has their phones out, Like it seems insane y.

Speaker 9 (54:41):
What is it about that part of the country or
that country that goes so crazy?

Speaker 5 (54:45):
I don't know, I may be generalizing the Nordic.

Speaker 8 (54:50):
No, there's bands like Mayhem.

Speaker 3 (54:53):
Varg Vikernes killed his guitarist, he's in jail for murder. Well,
they're there's a huge Well who's the serial killer guy?

Speaker 11 (55:02):
Though?

Speaker 3 (55:02):
Wasn't there one guy who killed like a bunch of people?

Speaker 10 (55:04):
Yeah, there's if you want to there's a there's a
documentary called Until the Light Takes Us that goes through
kind of the death metal scene in which like, there
are basically a ton of pagan origins with the church
burnings and things like that, and it was because like
the Catholic Church was building on sacred grounds for their religions,

(55:27):
and there was there was a bunch of intertwined things
about different religions that were also feuding. But you also
have to remember that a lot of these guys that
were getting pulled into this death metal scene were also
derelicts and displaced teenagers from bad homes and then they
found themselves.

Speaker 8 (55:46):
People kind of it rained into like a spooky, scary
like hey you belong here.

Speaker 3 (55:51):
Though I understand when like Nordic people like gravitate towards
metal and death metal in that whole scene. I don't
understand when Mexicans and South Americans who live in you know,
what's nice steel drum to a double kick, It's like
what what?

Speaker 11 (56:11):
What?

Speaker 3 (56:11):
What happened to you that you know we're playing reggae?

Speaker 8 (56:15):
It's like player from California, the Bay Area.

Speaker 3 (56:19):
That's true, that's a good point. The Bay Area is
not southern Los Angeles, you know what I mean? It
gets dark.

Speaker 8 (56:27):
Up there regardless.

Speaker 10 (56:28):
All of those you know, even like Metallica, megat of like,
those are people that essentially they're growing up poor and
they're growing up in bad either family situations, economic situations,
whatever it is, and they're just ripe to be looking
for a group to fall into.

Speaker 8 (56:48):
You fall into the wrong route.

Speaker 10 (56:49):
But then it starts to get like how extreme can
you be with this death metal scene? It starts getting
too dangerous extremes and what you're talking about with with Mayhem,
there's bands like literally death and it started to get
to like they're all living together and the next thing,
you know, oh, I killed my roommates.

Speaker 8 (57:07):
But now.

Speaker 10 (57:10):
Death Now let's advantageously use this to the band's lore
and now let's eat his brains.

Speaker 4 (57:16):
But now, Abby, we have missed Universe singing death metal
on network television?

Speaker 3 (57:22):
Like does that take away some of the of the appeal?

Speaker 4 (57:26):
So where are where are the disaffected youth going to
go now that the beautiful popular girl has found out
about their their uh their art forms?

Speaker 3 (57:35):
Almost not fair?

Speaker 10 (57:36):
Yeah, I mean, in some ways I think that there's
still like a huge barrier to entry there because I
think you could see that and unless you have something
in you that gets attracted to that type of music,
it's just a parlor trick for a lot of people.

Speaker 4 (57:50):
I guess that's true. You have to want to just
stuff their toe And was like, hey, that sounds pretty good.

Speaker 18 (57:55):
Like how did I do that?

Speaker 8 (57:56):
Due to March Simpson impression one day? Wait minute, you.

Speaker 3 (58:01):
Know, I mean best hidden trick ever though?

Speaker 6 (58:03):
Right?

Speaker 3 (58:03):
Yeah, oh yeah, for sure. Not your average talent show
performance for a Miss World contestant. And she won, well,
good for her and she won, which is the Beatles
never did anything like that, like the mass killing anything said,
just a little circle one.

Speaker 8 (58:19):
A little more.

Speaker 10 (58:20):
Mind.

Speaker 3 (58:21):
We spent a lot of time in India. We don't
know what happened over there. There's a rumor that someone
killed Stu Sutcliffe, remember, like John Lennon.

Speaker 8 (58:30):
I actually don't know.

Speaker 3 (58:31):
There's there's there's this whole conspiracy theory that John Lennon.

Speaker 4 (58:34):
Didn't they think on Strawberry Fields that Paul was dead,
that Paul was that was like the original death metal.

Speaker 3 (58:41):
Yeah, but he wasn't. Well, they put it in their
their heads. They they hypnotized that you Paul McCartney last
night paying tribute to George Harrison playing it on a
ukulele that George gave him.

Speaker 8 (59:10):
I mean, it was an amazing how they clicked in
that's too let's see.

Speaker 3 (59:14):
Yeah, it was amazing. My only complaint is just too expensive.
It's just way too expensive.

Speaker 10 (59:18):
Although with the visuals, the time of the band for
what ended up being like, did you say it, three
hour show?

Speaker 3 (59:24):
Yeah? Too long, it's for that for that population group
on a weeknight get out of here. I asked the
two of you long, who the comedy equivalent is of
all of these rock stars who reached the age of
eighty and still perform. Like, is it only exclusive to music?

Speaker 1 (59:44):
Is it?

Speaker 3 (59:44):
Because yes, I think so.

Speaker 7 (59:47):
I mean there's a couple of guys like we named Seinfeld,
name Cosby would have been.

Speaker 4 (59:52):
Comedian that any audience would sit through and have a
good time for three hours hours.

Speaker 3 (01:00:00):
That part of it is different. Oh okay, I'm just
talking about that. I'm talking about like commanding an audience.
You know, maybe Chappelle when he gets to that age.
It on stub Hub to sit in the Nosebleeds last night,
Like I think we paid.

Speaker 4 (01:00:17):
Like not quite that much, but to see Seinfeld that
the ben Atum was a couple hunts Like it was
like two hundred and fifty bucks or something like that.

Speaker 3 (01:00:24):
It was not cheap.

Speaker 9 (01:00:25):
Here's my take on that though, and it's probably a
hot take.

Speaker 7 (01:00:29):
I think it's okay to have that expensive of a
ticket price for a guy of that age. Everybody's retired,
everybody has enough money to go see him at that point,
you know what I mean. It's the younger bands that
are gouging people where I'm like, where the hell do
you get off?

Speaker 5 (01:00:44):
Yeah, well, yeah, that's true. At least Paul earned it.

Speaker 3 (01:00:47):
Damn Beetle or what is the cut of the intermediaries
between the artist and you know?

Speaker 13 (01:00:57):
Right?

Speaker 4 (01:00:57):
For all we know Paul McCartney be like, oh dude
for free ticketmasters, just like how what five hundred.

Speaker 5 (01:01:04):
Mister Wednesday, Jeff Conkle, you got anything coming up?

Speaker 4 (01:01:06):
I have a gig that I would like people to
come to. How's that for a promotion beer out in Lawrenceville.
It's at this Saturday at Low Lev Beer. It's gonna
be me and Trevor Austin and UH and Abby Elias
Uh doing a doing a show out there. And if

(01:01:27):
you want the nice little I got a promo code too.
If you go to the low Lev Beer it's Jeff
ten gets you a couple bucks off.

Speaker 3 (01:01:34):
So if you want to go to that, then please come.

Speaker 4 (01:01:37):
I'm looking forward to having a nice, normal, fun comedy show,
so please join me for this thing.

Speaker 3 (01:01:46):
That is a great job.

Speaker 18 (01:01:47):
Man.

Speaker 3 (01:01:47):
Thank you for listening and thank you for your time.

Speaker 5 (01:01:51):
My name has been Jeff Conkle. Your powers of promotion
are real well.

Speaker 3 (01:01:56):
I've always excelled at it.

Speaker 6 (01:01:59):
DV.

Speaker 3 (01:02:00):
He sends the.

Speaker 16 (01:02:00):

Speaker 19 (01:02:39):
Com from the Bridgeville Appliance Weather Center, known for exceptional service.

Speaker 3 (01:02:43):
Bridgeville plan is and about Paul McCartney, He didn't do
the reck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. I thought opportunity missed
opportunity there should have. But hopefully the Steelers aren't sinking
to the bottom. Here herew says an acoustic version of
that he cut long time ago. He's going to release
that when he releases not does he really? He?

Speaker 6 (01:03:03):
Probably?

Speaker 3 (01:03:03):
I mean, I couldn't see him doing that. It's weird.
Because like Dylan loves Gordon Lightfoot absolutely loves him. He
inducted him into the Singer Songwriter Hall of Fame or
something like that, and I don't think people think of
him that way. But people certainly think of Paul McCartney
in that regard.

Speaker 5 (01:03:21):
As a Hall of Famer.

Speaker 6 (01:03:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:03:22):
Absolutely, yeah, first ballot. Now one of the uh Mike
Tomlin is being considered as a first ballot Hall of
Famer as a coach, Mike, I don't have a first ballot.

Speaker 5 (01:03:33):
You know, you won a super Bowl. He's in the
top ten all time wins. He'll probably get there.

Speaker 3 (01:03:38):
However, I keep seeing scenarios or people running him out
of town on a rail right now or you.

Speaker 14 (01:03:43):
Know, are you referencing the uh Mike Greenberg? He should
be the coach of the Giants. Yes, it's a pretty
comfortable rail.

Speaker 3 (01:03:53):
Oh to the Giants? Is it for more money? The
New York media?

Speaker 5 (01:04:00):
But he likes it.

Speaker 7 (01:04:01):
On Payday, well, I saw people saying Belichick is going
to go back to the Giants.

Speaker 3 (01:04:06):
That would be awesome because of history there. Jordan Jordan
Hudson would be like the bell of the ball She
would be in the on the Hudson every day. Yes, anyways,
coach Tom, Yeah, I was trying to make the seguay earlier,
you know, unsuccessful.

Speaker 5 (01:04:27):
We hogged it, we did. We hogged this break already.

Speaker 8 (01:04:30):
We are not holding our own.

Speaker 3 (01:04:32):
Hey, I was at I've got an excuse. I was
up late watching a Beatle as you should have been.
I left early and all the songs I love the
most were played after I left because I had to
get some sleep. We had Sunday night. I sleep well
Monday night. Drive you like you're sitting there. I have

(01:04:54):
seen more concerts than anybody you know.

Speaker 2 (01:04:56):
I know, but not like that one.

Speaker 6 (01:04:58):
I know.

Speaker 8 (01:04:58):
But also think about how hard it was to get
into the venue.

Speaker 10 (01:05:02):
He's probably in his brain going, I'm not getting home
until two in the morning.

Speaker 5 (01:05:07):
That's all.

Speaker 3 (01:05:07):
That was all I was doing the entire time. I like,
I'm looking if I leave now. I got attendant, walked
to my car. See, that's one of.

Speaker 14 (01:05:13):
The reasons I didn't go, is because I wouldn't have
been able to do that. And I wouldn't have been
able to not go to Shells in properly pregame beforehand,
I know, and I would not have been able to
I can't sit there. Oh, I should leave now it's
quarter I.

Speaker 3 (01:05:28):
Got one beer for ceremonial purposes and zipped it and
watched the show.

Speaker 5 (01:05:33):
You know, but I was thinking about that though.

Speaker 3 (01:05:37):
I didn't want to be like tanked, because the last
time I was there was for Billy Strings on Saturday night.
I was bombed, you know, like, right.

Speaker 5 (01:05:46):
Don't get bombed, but you get happy. No, I was
the happiest guy in the planet.

Speaker 3 (01:05:50):
Yeah, very happy. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:05:53):
I tried to run up the score in the first
quarter and then I take my foot off the gas
A great way to the second half.

Speaker 3 (01:05:59):
Yeah, great the air. Yeah, I do that for Steelers games,
pregame hard, have a couple in the first half, and
then just relax.

Speaker 14 (01:06:08):
Well, Aaron Rodgers didn't start strong Sunday. They didn't finish
well either, and the in between kind of suck too.

Speaker 3 (01:06:17):
I than that.

Speaker 14 (01:06:18):
Mike Tomlin isn't concerned about this being the possible beginning
of a downward trend for his quarterback, who is going
to turn forty two on December second.

Speaker 15 (01:06:30):
I'm not gonna, you know, talk it up to an
off night, but there are no long term concerns.

Speaker 14 (01:06:35):
They emphasized that A couple of times yesterday. I hadn't
seen any hint of Rogers being a quote unquote old
quarterback prior to Sunday, So you know, take that for
what it's worth, right, I mean from the first practice
in mandatory veteran mini camp back in the spring, watched

(01:06:57):
them throw for five minutes. Wow, you know, but it
is going to end eventually, and that end is going
to start somewhere, so I think it's something worth.

Speaker 5 (01:07:08):
Pondering. Oh yeah, is this the start of the steady
decline or they just have a bad game for whatever reason?
Why guys have bad games?

Speaker 3 (01:07:16):
Well, hot take, I don't think he could possibly be
as bad as he played on Sunday night. I don't think.
I don't think it's possible that that's the case that
he had that big of a drop off from the
guy we saw earlier this year.

Speaker 7 (01:07:26):
But he has looked old a number of times, but
not in his throws, just in how annoyed he gets
with the receivers, like that's an old guy thing.

Speaker 3 (01:07:36):
You should have done the other time. Come on, you know,
it's get on my.

Speaker 5 (01:07:40):
Lawn that precision.

Speaker 14 (01:07:43):
And I think, you know, I'm not sure what went
wrong on the dk Metcalf play early in the game,
other than.

Speaker 3 (01:07:51):
The twenty overthrown.

Speaker 14 (01:07:51):
They had the best flide receiver on a friggin' safety
and it should have been a touchdown and it wasn't.
I know that, you know, the more I look at it,
it looks like Metcalf flattened it out a little bit
late in the route and then went back to the
end zone when he didn't have to. Like, if he
goes on a straight diagonal, he probably ends up where
the ball is. I don't know if that's because he
wasn't sure where the ball was going to land, if

(01:08:13):
you had a hard time picking it up, or if
he thought.

Speaker 5 (01:08:15):
It was not where it was gonna where it was
supposed to be, or.

Speaker 3 (01:08:19):
The details of that play, I don't did you Were
you able to see the like an all twenty two
with the route, like him flattening it out or anything? Yeah,
but I mean, was he flattening it because that's where
he thought the ball was. He definitely flattened it a
little bit. Is he supposed to such? Saying well, and
you know he's got to react to the ball, like, yeah,
he doesn't run, he didn't read it well. Rogers doesn't

(01:08:40):
hit every throw exactly where it's supposed to go. Spot though,
isn't he? I mean he he sort of alluded to
that in the hail Mary he is, but.

Speaker 14 (01:08:47):
He's booting left and then turning and throwing. You know,
what if what if Metcalf said, Oh, that's not going
to be a perfect Daron Rodgers throw. I think it's
going over here, and then he started leaning that one,
and then oh, no, it is going there. There's some
detail in there that I'm not sure. I don't think
it was one hundred percent of miss well. He overthrew
him there, He under threw Calvin Austin.

Speaker 5 (01:09:08):
Under threw Austin. The one who Johnny Smith was a
terrible miss.

Speaker 14 (01:09:13):
The one to gain well in the flat before he
missed Metcalf at the pylon was a terrible miss.

Speaker 5 (01:09:20):
Javin Warren dug one out of the ground. He wasn't
He was off all night.

Speaker 14 (01:09:23):
You can't hit him all, but you also can't miss
four touchdowns, like you got to hit a couple of
them right, and then it's I.

Speaker 3 (01:09:29):
Don't know think Johnny was a touchdown. Yeah, I think
it might have been.

Speaker 14 (01:09:32):
He's at least he's gonna be at the five yard
line one on one with a dB. Gotcha if you
hit him on and he can tell, which he does
all the time.

Speaker 7 (01:09:42):
But this is the problem is that they started getting
to him. And if you get to him early and
you start hitting him, the night gets real long.

Speaker 5 (01:09:50):
You know, that's not just for forty one year old quarterbacks.

Speaker 9 (01:09:53):
That was for Brady and his prime. The only way
you could do it.

Speaker 14 (01:09:58):
So we'll see what he's got Sunday against the Bengals.
Sante Samuel Junior signed to the practice squad. According to ESPN,
former second round pick forty seventh overall the Chargers in
twenty twenty one, played fifty career games with the Chargers,
but only four last year. Wound up having back surgery,
but a Steelers doctor did the back surgery and a

(01:10:20):
bunch of teams were lined up to talk to this guy.

Speaker 5 (01:10:23):
He is coming here.

Speaker 14 (01:10:26):
With the Darius Slay in the concussion protocol. That is
a timely addition which might turn out to be a
big deal.

Speaker 3 (01:10:36):
Oh yeah, It's the only thing that gives me pause
is that they're not the most attractive team to land
on right now. Well, in your perception, that's right, Mike,
I said it.

Speaker 5 (01:10:53):
Maybe maybe to Sante Sampuel, they're a very attractive option.

Speaker 3 (01:10:58):
Maybe that's why he's here. Yeah, doctor is here.

Speaker 5 (01:11:01):
That is true. It would be easy, Yes, if his
back he oatomy acts out.

Speaker 3 (01:11:07):
But yeah, that like the Eagles collected a bunch of
DB's at the trade deadline, it just seems to me
there would be more obvious contenders who could use some
help in the secondary.

Speaker 5 (01:11:19):
It's the only thing that gives me pause. Teams were
lining up for this guy.

Speaker 3 (01:11:25):
Maybe he likes that Ramsey's a floor or the three
teams he supposedly visited went to the Giants.

Speaker 14 (01:11:29):
One of them, Minnesota was upset that he came here,
recording to Minnesota reporting.

Speaker 9 (01:11:36):
Where do you put them? They're on their way.

Speaker 14 (01:11:39):
He doesn't necessarily look at it the way anybody else does.
He looks at it the way he does. And there
are there are some players in the league that want
to play for Mike Tomlin. I know he should be
fired and run out of town on the.

Speaker 7 (01:11:49):
Rad No, everybody that's on the team wants to play
for them. I mean, all these free agents, it's all
they say when they get here. It's a little tradition here.
I mean there's a brand. No, I know, I get
all that. Yeah, I hope he's great.

Speaker 3 (01:12:02):
Wouldn't it be amazing if we ended up with, you know,
vintage Kyle Duggar, Giber Peppers and Asante Samuel that.

Speaker 14 (01:12:10):
Would be something. Yeah, it was Dougger a two mm hmm.
Porter is a two or a one? You know, tweeting
a two? Yeah, this guy's at two and Ramsey's a one.

Speaker 3 (01:12:22):
All right, We've got Merrill coming up here after the break.
We'll get his thoughts on Sunday night's loss to the
Chargers and look ahead at Joe Flacco and the Bengals
coming to Akerscher Stadium a Sunday one o'clock kickoff here
on DV.

Speaker 5 (01:12:34):

What's on, maryl Good morning everybody.

Speaker 9 (01:14:05):
I love the happy energy.

Speaker 3 (01:14:07):
Well nice. You know, despite the Steelers outcome Sunday Night
against the Chargers, we are optimistic that they are going
to turn things around. I think so. My question to
you we were just kicking this around, was Sunday Night
a harbinger of things to come for Aaron Rodgers in
terms of performance decline?

Speaker 5 (01:14:23):
Or is that just an outlier?

Speaker 3 (01:14:25):
No?

Speaker 18 (01:14:26):
No, listen, that guy is still elite, knows how to
play from the pocket and.

Speaker 3 (01:14:34):
Is elite.

Speaker 18 (01:14:35):
Now you know, Now did he underthrow a couple guys
and overthrows some guys that he usually doesn't.

Speaker 5 (01:14:41):
Yeah, but you know this is a this is a
product of the inconsistency up front.

Speaker 6 (01:14:46):
You know, like I.

Speaker 18 (01:14:48):
This is true every year, Like I always get asked
like who's going to win the Super Bowl? It's the
easiest question I have to answer every years, the best
team and then what's in the best team with.

Speaker 5 (01:15:00):
No I know you laugh at that, but it's watched
at the end of the year.

Speaker 3 (01:15:03):
It's going to be the best team.

Speaker 18 (01:15:04):
And then this is always forgotten when it's so over
because the MVP is going to go to the quarterback
or running back or you know, a permater guy, and
it's always how they play closest to the football. Always,
Like we used to Johns and I used to do
a matchup show, a wrap up super Bowl show.

Speaker 3 (01:15:19):
We did it for almost twenty.

Speaker 18 (01:15:20):
Years, and every time we did it, like we watch
the Super Bowl after we watched the tape of it, like,
oh my gosh, you could have got the actually MVP
from an offensive lindman or a defensive lineman, almost every
one of them, but they were negated or not looked at.
You know, it's just because of how the game is played.
You know, you miss that and you don't get the
sense of the trenches, and we're just not consistent enough there.

(01:15:43):
Like I don't care how I mean, what's Aaron Rodgers
twentieth year, twenty first, whatever it is. I'm just going
to tell you if you keep getting hit and you
keep getting pressure, quit you just tend to speed your
game up.

Speaker 5 (01:15:55):
You rush things, you don't trust things, and then.

Speaker 18 (01:15:58):
There's you could tell that he didn't that you know,
because they were getting quick pressure running, you know, and
they were collapsing in all areas of their protection, and
he started to rush things.

Speaker 3 (01:16:07):
You know, he started to play.

Speaker 18 (01:16:09):
A little faster than he normally does, and he plays
fast anyway, but then go on the back end when
they did have time, Like the Chargers were really good
at negating any any inside routes.

Speaker 3 (01:16:22):
They were great at.

Speaker 5 (01:16:23):
The line of scrimmage of.

Speaker 18 (01:16:26):
Eroding and disrupting our receivers from getting off and getting
into the routes. And there was nothing open quickly when
he did have time, So you know, ut cred them
on the back end, and what they did with their
combination of defense, you know, I think that's always forgotten
is that you just forget their pros too, and they're
really good, and the week before they did not play
like that. The Chargers defense they were actually they were

(01:16:49):
not very impressive, and they cleaned a lot of things
up from that previous week and played much better against
the Steelers.

Speaker 5 (01:16:55):
Marilyn Honor or your buddy Jaws.

Speaker 14 (01:16:57):
I think the next time somebody asked you who's going
to win the Super Bowl, your answer should be the
team that has a quarterback that doesn't throw three interceptions.

Speaker 3 (01:17:07):
Well, I can tell you this that makes it.

Speaker 18 (01:17:10):
I'll tell you another thing that I always look for
before any I start any game. It's like, how many
plays does the offense have versus the defense? Because I
think this is statistically true. The best defense in football
at the end of the year every year, they have
one thing in common, and this is almost consistent. They

(01:17:30):
play the fewest amount of plays.

Speaker 3 (01:17:33):
That is true.

Speaker 5 (01:17:34):
No best defense in football has ever played the most
that I know of.

Speaker 18 (01:17:39):
Now, maybe that has happened, but that is usually a
statistic standard that makes a great defense because offenses are
too good. You keep them out on the field, you
leave them out on the field, they will eventually erode.
It's usually the offense. And that offense may not be
an offense that scores a lot of points. But to
what we didn't do is we don't sustain any drives,

(01:18:00):
you know we I think they had like twenty plays
more than we did, and that's a lot.

Speaker 8 (01:18:04):
That's a lot.

Speaker 3 (01:18:05):
That's a big deal.

Speaker 6 (01:18:06):
Man.

Speaker 3 (01:18:06):
They had sixteen minute time of possession differential, right and
stuff like that.

Speaker 18 (01:18:13):
Now those things matter, you know, because then they control
the temple of the game, and then might you're right,
they won the turnover battle.

Speaker 3 (01:18:20):
I was just taking a shot at your worst. I
didn't really expect.

Speaker 18 (01:18:23):
You to go yell, well, that's not what anytime you
take a shot at him, I just keep building on it.

Speaker 14 (01:18:31):
What I did want to ask, and this is at
all sincerity and honesty. They're getting ready to host a
team that's three and six, and I have no idea
if they're going to win or not.

Speaker 18 (01:18:43):
No, no, no you're not, because they can put fifty
points on anybody.

Speaker 5 (01:18:48):
You know, Okay, go back to you know, you go
back and look at that last matchup.

Speaker 3 (01:18:52):
What do we do?

Speaker 18 (01:18:53):
I think there was two turnovers and then one that
was I mean devastating is we had a touchdown and
it got called back on holding. Okay, so I mean
that is a big No, that's not a turnover, but
that that's close to it, because now you lost points.
I think they only got three out of that, so
they lost four points. You have two turnovers down and
scoring territory.

Speaker 3 (01:19:10):
Those are big.

Speaker 18 (01:19:11):
And then if you go look at their passing attack,
some of their biggest plays were their third best wide receiver,
Like we would double their two best because we weren't
work going to let those guys win. And even though
they had a big day, two the third guy, because
this is what they're doing defensively, Okay, that third guy
is going to have to beat us. Well, that third
guy beat them, So that's how good they are. And

(01:19:35):
then they did this to everybody. Now it ain't it's
just a steel of defense. Don't don't think it's just
the stealer sho did have the Chicago. They did it
to the Jets. They did it to everybody. They just
their defense gives up fifty one. If they score fifty,
you know, they score forty eight, they you know, end
up scoring forty nine.

Speaker 5 (01:19:51):
Unfortunately, we just weren't. We didn't score those time.

Speaker 18 (01:19:56):
But the points that we did score we got called
back when we weren't positioned to score. We turned the
ball over. Well, you just can't do that against a
team that has that much offensive power.

Speaker 3 (01:20:06):
Merril, how much better are the Bengals with flacout now
than they were when we first encountered them only a
few days into his tenure?

Speaker 20 (01:20:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 18 (01:20:19):
Well, gods saying he played a really good game against
the first go around, Because when I was when I
went back and watched, I was like.

Speaker 5 (01:20:26):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 3 (01:20:27):
I mean this dude was on five. Those were the
best throws in a game of his life. I swear
to God, I swear.

Speaker 18 (01:20:34):
Okay, now listen, he Joe Flack I've always felt is underrated, okay,
in all levels of playing the position, because that dude
he gets the ball out quick. I mean he makes
majing throws. You know the guy six five too. That's
a big deal when you're forget.

Speaker 9 (01:20:48):
He's a monster. Yeah, yes, he's a big cat.

Speaker 18 (01:20:51):
And man, he just stands there. He doesn't flinch, he
didn't blink. Man, I would say, I don't think he's
played much better. I mean the Chicago game, he was terrific,
but he was no better than when he plays.

Speaker 8 (01:21:02):
If he gets any.

Speaker 3 (01:21:03):
Better, I don't know what you did.

Speaker 18 (01:21:06):
I'm just praying he just plays in the level he played.
And on our offense, you just don't turn the ball
over and you you don't get touchdowns called back.

Speaker 3 (01:21:15):
You would have won. Okay, we would have won that way.
We should we win that way if they don't do that.

Speaker 5 (01:21:20):
So that's how SO think you they can win this game.
They're better overall team.

Speaker 18 (01:21:25):
You just are not good enough to offset give them
two points and then take away four of your points
just against that offense.

Speaker 3 (01:21:34):

there's nobody at this house. It's there's no cars in
the driveway. The door is open, and there's like a
little light on.

Speaker 3 (01:22:47):

which has been kind of unique for everybody to really
get to know him.

Speaker 8 (01:24:04):
It's a Wonderful Life.

Speaker 9 (01:24:06):
Oh that's I mean, that's ahenomenal film.

Speaker 3 (01:24:08):
I always say that it's my favorite film because I
watch it at the time of the year that it
hits me the hardest. I don't watch It's a Wonderful
Life in June, you know what I mean. So while
I say it's my favorite film, I think it's my
favorite to sit down and watch because Christmas movie. Yeah,
it's it has to be specified as that, because like Goodfellas,
I can watch all year around, Godfather I.

Speaker 9 (01:24:29):
Can especially at Christmas.

Speaker 3 (01:24:31):
Right. No, look, there's some good Christmas scenes there Goodfellas.
Oh yeah, take it back. No, no, no, A little
bit insulted him a little bit.

Speaker 8 (01:24:43):
Tapping his musical side, he gave a shout out to
the sound of music.

Speaker 5 (01:24:49):
Whoa okay, curveball, you know, not my favorite. People love it,
not my favorite.

Speaker 7 (01:24:57):
Watched it with the girls a few years ago. Oh
it's an epic. I mean it's a beautiful film. It's
a million hours long.

Speaker 3 (01:25:05):
It's so long you.

Speaker 8 (01:25:07):
Only need to see it once, right, guys in that right?

Speaker 20 (01:25:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (01:25:12):
And that one okay, Oh yeah, there's some great scenes
too in that movie.

Speaker 5 (01:25:17):
Like just cinematography.

Speaker 9 (01:25:19):
Yeah, I mean, it's unbelievable.

Speaker 8 (01:25:22):
The US are alive.

Speaker 10 (01:25:25):
No drones back in those days, you know, right, you
had to really really do that on a craner exact.
Not all feel good flicks for the Pope though, and
before Mike went off to uh cut sound for sports,
he was surprised by this one Ordinary People, which that

(01:25:45):
has Donald Sutherland and Mary Tyler Moore.

Speaker 8 (01:25:48):
If you can't place that.

Speaker 10 (01:25:49):
Film seventies, well eighties. It's a psychological drama. I mean
it's it's got I.

Speaker 5 (01:25:55):
Watched it last year for the first time. It's really heavy.

Speaker 11 (01:26:00):
The thing.

Speaker 3 (01:26:01):
Yeah, like a son, it's a suicidal son and a family.
You would never expect it from well to do well respected.
Mary Tyler Moore plays a very cold mom, which is
like against type for her, right, and it's like Timothy
Hutton is the kid and he it was like one
of the first times they showed like a disaffected youth,

(01:26:22):
like from white suburbia, you know what I mean, and
just mental health issues and his issues with his mom.
It's like really Freudian psycho analysis kind of not it
is not a fun watch. It's well acted and it's
an interesting story, but also it's it's like how like

(01:26:44):
Robert Klein doesn't get credit for being the comic that
he was because so many people like impersonated his style
and that kind of movie was done a whole bunch
after ordinary people.

Speaker 5 (01:26:56):
But at the time it was really like not revolutionary,
but it was really different.

Speaker 10 (01:27:03):
And perhaps a nod to his Italian heritage. The final
pick in the top four Lavida E. Bell Life is Beautiful.

Speaker 3 (01:27:12):
Oh that's a beautiful movie, Benini. Yeah, oh yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:27:16):
One of the best acceptance speeches as well, and.

Speaker 3 (01:27:19):
He like climbed over the seats of the oscar.

Speaker 7 (01:27:21):
She's so happy, and he said he was blessed with
the gift of poverty growing up mm hm and how
that just made him like empathetic and how you think
everything is beautiful because you grew up with nothing.

Speaker 9 (01:27:35):
Right. Oh, that movie is heartbreaking. His performance is so.

Speaker 3 (01:27:40):
Good and it's like a lot different from the Jerry
Lewis movie about the Holocaust, which where he plays the clown.
Do you know what I'm talking about? No, yeah, it
got buried. It never got shown because it was.

Speaker 9 (01:27:56):
Did Robin Williams do that as well? Like, didn't Robin
Williams have a movie that well?

Speaker 5 (01:28:01):
I think that's Patch Adams.

Speaker 9 (01:28:02):
No, no, I'm talking about and maybe I got I'm
getting it wrong.

Speaker 3 (01:28:06):
Oh, yes, I know.

Speaker 5 (01:28:07):
It's like Jacob the Something, Jacob the Liar?

Speaker 6 (01:28:11):
Is that what it is?

Speaker 9 (01:28:12):
Yea, yeah, but it's not Jacob's ladder. Maybe it's a
different person. I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:28:16):
I don't think Jerry Lewis.

Speaker 9 (01:28:18):
Let's stop talking about it.

Speaker 3 (01:28:19):
I don't think Jerry Lewis had the like deafness of
character to be away. Yes, Chamber, it's oh man, it's
like it is a legend in circles. There are people
who have seen it apparently, like Patton Oswald did a

(01:28:40):
whole podcast about like having seen it. Jerry Lewis comedy.
It's a comedy The Day the Day the Clown cried,
That's what it's called. Oh Man Wow. Unreleased and highly
controversial film. The film is a tragic comedy set in
a Nazi concentration camp and is widely considered one of
the most famous lost or seen movies in cinema history

(01:29:01):
due to legal issues, creative disputes, and Lewis's own embarrassment
over the final product. The name of his character is
Helmet dork in the movie.

Speaker 8 (01:29:12):
Did he have anything to do with the script?

Speaker 3 (01:29:14):
He wrote it? Oh god, yeah, it's supposedly it's just
cringe start to He.

Speaker 8 (01:29:21):
Wrote it, and he is uh orchestrated. He orchestrated it
being buried.

Speaker 3 (01:29:27):
Yes, so he was at least aware of it, directed it,
started it, filmed it, looked at it and said, she what.

Speaker 1 (01:29:33):
Have I done?

Speaker 8 (01:29:35):
I mean, self awareness is important.

Speaker 3 (01:29:38):
Right, because Mike Myers put out the Love Guru. You know,
nobody told him.

Speaker 10 (01:29:41):
You know you don't have to, right, I mean a
cool list from the Pope here too. I think it
shows a little bit of rain.

Speaker 3 (01:29:50):
Yeah, definitely, and uh, you know I want to thought
Blues Brothers little Chicago in there, Yeah, May Christmas vacation, Yeah,
Griswalde and not maybe die Hard.

Speaker 8 (01:30:04):
Do you know what his favorite restaurant is?

Speaker 3 (01:30:08):
Is it like Malonado's or something?

Speaker 11 (01:30:09):
Or is it.

Speaker 3 (01:30:11):
Perfetos? What's the name of that? Portillo's, Red Lobster, ed
Guiney and the Pope? Yeah, all right, who doesn't Cheddarbay
sounds like a wonderful place to live.

Speaker 10 (01:30:30):
While some actors are fighting Ai tooth and nail, others
are just giving in, like Michael Caine, who has partnered
up with a company called eleven Labs to deliver his
voice to whoever. So here's how it works. Say you
want Michael's voice to deliver some kind of content, You
contact eleven Labs and they put you in.

Speaker 8 (01:30:50):
Touch with the rights holders.

Speaker 10 (01:30:52):
You hammer out a deal, and then eleven Labs uses
its voice cloning technology to deliver the voice. Why, says quote,
With eleven Labs, we can preserve and share voices, not
just mine, but anyone's. Eleven Labs is at the very
forefront of technology, using innovation not to replace humanity, but
to celebrate it. Matthew McConaughey is an investor in the

(01:31:15):
company It's not clear if his voice is up for grabs,
but he's using eleven Labs to translate his audio newsletter
Lyrics of Living into Spanish. Eleven Labs already has a
small collection of famous voices.

Speaker 8 (01:31:29):
Alive and dead, although mostly dead.

Speaker 10 (01:31:32):
They include Art Garfuncle, who is alive, Yeah, Liza Manellie
who is still hanging in there.

Speaker 3 (01:31:42):
That would be somebody if you told me she was dead,
I'd be like, yeah, I truly did think she was dead.

Speaker 8 (01:31:48):
I apologize.

Speaker 9 (01:31:48):
I think the last time I saw her was on
the Shopping Network.

Speaker 3 (01:31:51):
Well, the last time I saw was Rested Development, when
she played Buster Bluth's girlfriend.

Speaker 8 (01:32:00):
Is that fit?

Speaker 6 (01:32:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:32:01):
That one moment in like the Awards ceremony with Lady Gaga.
Do you remember That's right?

Speaker 8 (01:32:05):
Yes, was like helping coaching her through it.

Speaker 3 (01:32:09):
Because she was old.

Speaker 9 (01:32:10):
You know, I do remember that?

Speaker 3 (01:32:12):
Okay? She she played bass for Paul McCartney on the
songs that he played guitar last night.

Speaker 10 (01:32:17):
Yes, yeah, John Wayne who is dead and John Wayne
who was dead, and Mark Twain.

Speaker 8 (01:32:26):
How how do we know?

Speaker 3 (01:32:29):
How do we know?

Speaker 9 (01:32:29):
How do we know what he sounds like?

Speaker 3 (01:32:32):
There's recordings of his voice there, but that's justine. Remember
we had that whole thing about like the discovery that
Abraham Lincoln's voice was like really high.

Speaker 8 (01:32:48):
He was like our four score guys.

Speaker 3 (01:32:49):
Why was ever laughing?

Speaker 8 (01:32:51):
Why Daniel day Lewis does it so high?

Speaker 3 (01:32:53):
He does do thing like that, doesn't he?

Speaker 10 (01:32:55):
Yes, it does, which I thought, by the way, when
it's talking like vocal impressions. Here, there was this TikTok
that I saw a while back where there was I
guess the guy's a comedian, but he was showing you
how if you can do Michael Kaine, you can do
Matthew McConaughey and how you get from one to the other.

Speaker 21 (01:33:16):
So a lot of people do Michael Kayane out there,
except Rob but hopefully it's very very love and what
he talks, it's very very breathy love. This so most
tous Michael. He goes up there, but then he finds
himself back down here. You take this voice with the

(01:33:40):
breath double southern twang, dude, and never say you're ess
you got mccallaughey ashes a fact a right, And when
you do McCaulay and Wishery drop the edge, let your tongue.

Speaker 8 (01:34:08):
Name was Vincent Marcus.

Speaker 3 (01:34:09):
Okay, well, I didn't know if it was Rob Ryan
and Steve Coogan. Have you ever seen the scene? I'm
Michael Kane, rob Rydon, I'm Michael Kirsty. Yeah, they're dueling
and they're getting mad, and Cougan's like she was only
six years old. He out of breath. Michael Kite.

Speaker 7 (01:34:27):
I love that, Michael Kane because it always sounds like
he's about to sneeze.

Speaker 3 (01:34:32):
I don't think they swear in this. Do they swear? Yeah,
they swear. Okay, we'll pay. I'll set it to Jacob.

Speaker 8 (01:34:41):
Uh Vandaya and or Zenda and Sidney Sweeney.

Speaker 3 (01:34:45):
Is it? I think it's I always thought Zendia zen Diagram, Zendeia, Zandia,
let's call the whole thing off.

Speaker 10 (01:34:54):
And Sydney Sweeney became fast friends on the set of Euphoria,
but the honeymoon period is over. According to random Internet rumors,
these so called sources that they are engaged in a
bitter feud, seemingly over their opposing political views. After the
controversy over the American Eagle genes ad, which got a
lot of flak for having racial undertone, sources that Zendeia,

(01:35:16):
Zendaya is refusing to do press with Sydney.

Speaker 3 (01:35:20):
For the show.

Speaker 5 (01:35:22):
Uh oh, Jane Beef, I mean that is a beef alert.

Speaker 8 (01:35:27):
That all that's Oh no, you never I didn't be alert, guys, guys.

Speaker 3 (01:35:41):
I just think that she could have done herself a
big favor by pointing out how ridiculous the argument was,
to just go, it's crazy to me that this spawned
discussion about like eugenics. This is about genes and if
you extrapolated that to me something else, you're two online

(01:36:02):
go touch grass the end, Like she could have just
said that and she didn't even have to fess up
to a viewpoint. But like by saying there going if
I want to say something, you'll find out about it,
and like you're just you're you're only you might as
well say, like, yes, I believe that the white race
is superior, because that's all anybody's gonna ascribe to you

(01:36:22):
by not denouncing it.

Speaker 8 (01:36:24):
I made the connection between the.

Speaker 10 (01:36:30):
Lack of empathy she showed just for the misunderstanding and
the movie bombing. So I finally spent because we were
talking about at the end of the show yesterday.

Speaker 3 (01:36:40):
Yeah, her movie bombed and the movie that she.

Speaker 10 (01:36:43):
Did because Sidney Sweeney is obviously a beautiful actress, but
I don't think she's a lotted as being a great actress. Sure,
and you're kind of saying like, okay, well, why didn't
this movie do well? And you're saying, Okay, Sidney Sweeney
tried to do her ugly. She tried to do her
Charlie's there.

Speaker 3 (01:37:02):
On monster role.

Speaker 10 (01:37:04):
I'm going to do an ugly role that's about, you know,
domestic violence, and I'm going to show people that I
can get gritty and real. But I realized that she
lacks empathy in so many ways as a person, and
she's not able to show it. But also she's banked
her entire career on the male gaze.

Speaker 8 (01:37:25):
So she doesn't have the empathy of women.

Speaker 10 (01:37:28):
But she also doesn't show empathy in any social issue
or any social context, so she doesn't possess empathy.

Speaker 8 (01:37:35):
So she's trying to show a.

Speaker 10 (01:37:36):
Character with empathy. So when you strip her of the
main component of her value, which is the male gaze,
the movie bos right.

Speaker 9 (01:37:46):
Nobody wants to see her in a sports bra.

Speaker 8 (01:37:48):
Right, So I'm like, I think I figured this out out.

Speaker 5 (01:37:50):
Like as well said, I don't want to see the
Hot chick box.

Speaker 3 (01:37:59):
Wow, hold on, wait a minute, I just I do
want to see you Boston more than any Yeah, you know, putting.

Speaker 8 (01:38:09):
In a pool the only thing.

Speaker 10 (01:38:10):
We mostly cloudy today and breezy with a shower. It's
going to be a higher round fifty.

Speaker 3 (01:38:18):
I think I got COVID waiting in that line for
Paul McCartney last night. Cough over here, I'm coughing NonStop.

Speaker 8 (01:38:24):
Listen. Here's the thing.

Speaker 10 (01:38:25):
When you go on a lot of new medications, sometimes
one of the you know, side effects is cough.

Speaker 8 (01:38:31):
A lot more a lot of a lot of medications
make you cough.

Speaker 3 (01:38:34):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 8 (01:38:35):
You get literally flemy?

Speaker 3 (01:38:36):
Why am I? Is that a director over sixty crowd?

Speaker 6 (01:38:39):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (01:38:39):
That those people? Yeah, I mean, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:38:41):
I just think that we were packed in like sardines
waiting to get in there for forty five minutes last night.

Speaker 8 (01:38:46):
You didn't have to be COVID.

Speaker 3 (01:38:48):
Oh yeah, Oh they're they're coughing. Didn't Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm sure on the way for you. We will talk
with Mark Madden in the nine o'clock hour and Michael
Love Your Sports in just a little bit. There's a
big announcement today that we're going to be making on
the DV Morning Show at nine forty five, So stick

(01:39:10):
where I go, I always listened to.

Speaker 1 (01:39:11):

Speaker 19 (01:39:20):

visit today.

Speaker 5 (01:39:25):
This report is sponsored by Levin Furniture and Mattress.

Speaker 3 (01:39:28):
Cloudy skuys today with high temperatures Sports right now on
the DV Morning Show, Mike Sports is up, Roxy Vibe
Bridgeville Appliines.

Speaker 14 (01:39:36):
Mike Tomlin emphasized a couple of times yesterday that the
has no concerns about Aaron Rodgers' ability to play at
a high level in the long term.

Speaker 5 (01:39:44):
I assume he means the rest of this season. So
there was that yesterday.

Speaker 14 (01:39:49):
There was also another soliloquy from Tomlin about turnovers that
often comes up, and it came up yesterday in response
to a question about how could the Steelers peace so
good against the Colts and so bad in LA.

Speaker 3 (01:40:05):
Yeah, we don't talk it up to luck man.

Speaker 15 (01:40:07):
It's a culture that we work on the ball awareness
the ball hunting wind to appropriately do so where we're
tackling it and compromise, etc. It is agenda of ours.
Sometimes it turns turns up in the form of five
or six takeaways. Sometimes it turns up in the form
of zero. But it doesn't lessen our attention to that
area and our commitment to that area. But it's twofold.

(01:40:31):
It's not only the hunting of the football, it's the
preservation of the football on the other side of it.
And that's one of the things that I was referring
to when I was talking about the competition component of
practice Steeler versus Steeler. When we place an emphasis on
ball searching and hunting, we're also fortifying our ball security

(01:40:52):
from an offensive perspective. And certainly to turnover ratio is
something that we desire to be graded in. And so
it's two sides to that coin. But when you work,
you're working both sides of it.

Speaker 14 (01:41:04):
Yeah, they lost Takeaway Giveaway three to nothing in LA
and they lost the game. They are four and oh
this year when they win Takeaway Giveaway, they're one and
one when it's even and they're zero to three when
they lose it. And as he pointed out, it's not
all just a defense getting the takeaways. The offense has
to protect it, right, and they're just that kind of team.

(01:41:29):
There's a lot of statistics in the NFL, and there's
a million numbers you can crush, but those splits are
unmistakably accurate. So protect it first, take it away second,
and it's you know, they're not unlike other teams in
the NFL in that regard, but that's not an absolute

(01:41:49):
in the league. Chicago is a surprising six and three
by most people's standard. Bears are plus fourteen in takeaway giveaway,
leading the league by far. Jacksonville's doing okay having a
winning season plus eight. Tampa Bay is a real good team.

Speaker 5 (01:42:05):
Plus eight.

Speaker 14 (01:42:06):
New England's a real good team, and the Patriots are
minus one. Denver's a real good team. The Broncos are
minus four. Some teams could work around that, some teams cannot.

Speaker 5 (01:42:19):
Steelers are clearly in the latter category, but they do
think that their ability. How long are you thinking of?
Does he have a four quarter leash all the time?
Right now?

Speaker 3 (01:42:31):
Who Rogers?

Speaker 6 (01:42:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:42:34):
Yeah, I mean I say that only because if he
comes out in the first two quarters, look like the
last four, then maybe they rethink that at halftime.

Speaker 3 (01:42:44):
That's all I'm getting at. I think Merrill. I totally
agree with what Merrill was saying. That was my read
on the game is that it was the offensive line first,
and then he was he was.

Speaker 9 (01:42:53):
Here on they rattled him. He had happy feet for
the rest of.

Speaker 5 (01:42:56):
The footsteps the whole thing. He missed the metcalf play
happened on the second possession. Did Jonas Smith play happened
on the third possession? That was the third possession?

Speaker 3 (01:43:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (01:43:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:43:10):
Why did you think that was much later in the game?
So that, to me is a little early in the game. Bill,
I don't know what you think on that, but yeah,
I think it's a little early to say he's got
PTSD because he's been hammered all night.

Speaker 9 (01:43:24):
I mean that was after the safety though, wasn't it.

Speaker 5 (01:43:26):
Yes, but he kind of ran into the safety that didn't.

Speaker 3 (01:43:31):
Have to be a safety.

Speaker 6 (01:43:32):
I know.

Speaker 7 (01:43:33):
But how what does that do to your mental What
does that do to your mindset and your schedule for
the rest of the time, to.

Speaker 22 (01:43:38):
Your mentals and your chicken. Yeah, well, maybe he'll dress
that today. I don't think he's gonna because I think
he might have even have been skinners going into that game. Mike,
I mean, you're down an offensive lineman. You're you're trying
Anders Pete or whatever is that guy's name. Heress who
screwed it up the first play.

Speaker 3 (01:43:59):
False started the first play and it was a pitch
to Jalen Warren. They were going to start with the run,
and he screwed it up and then they threw the
ball three times, three and outs.

Speaker 14 (01:44:07):
Yeah, Pete got a positive review from Tomlin yesterday, as
did Spencer Anders. So I don't know if he was
just protecting that goofy decision to do what they did,
or those guys actually played well in the in the
Hannibal Elephants package.

Speaker 5 (01:44:20):
But he said the offensive line was below the line.
But those two guys were good. There was Troy FAM's
worst game of the year.

Speaker 3 (01:44:27):
Yeah, let's see what they got.

Speaker 5 (01:44:31):
And Roger Jones is a mess.

Speaker 3 (01:44:32):
He's a mess.

Speaker 14 (01:44:33):
If they can't block the Bengals, forget about it, right, Seriously,
we beat that drum yesterday.

Speaker 5 (01:44:42):
How bad they are defense? Did you see, particularly without Hendrickson?

Speaker 7 (01:44:46):
Mag Tomlin spent the most time talking about even though
he's probably not going to plan this gap because that's
the only player to talk about.

Speaker 3 (01:44:51):
McAfee did a like made fun of the Chargers offensive line.

Speaker 5 (01:44:56):
I didn't even notice this. Like they have the PFF rankings,
so they're.

Speaker 9 (01:44:59):
All ranked horribly on the broadcast.

Speaker 3 (01:45:01):
Yeah, they were all like either last in their position.
I don't put a ton of creeds that mean nothing
to me, but it was just hilarious that every one
of them. I mean, it has to have some credence
in terms of a metric. It's not one I would
solely rely on, but the fact that every one of
them was either last at their position or second to last.

Speaker 14 (01:45:23):
Yeah, I mean that's their interior guys. Beckton was on
the Super Bowl winning team last year. Bozeman, the center,
played at Baltimore for a couple of years. They were
running the ball pretty good till.

Speaker 3 (01:45:36):
Darius Lay has a Super Bowl. Yeah, I mean, okay, but.

Speaker 14 (01:45:40):
I mean they were down to their fourth and fifth
offensive tackles. That's that's the metric that you need. Like,
but I don't need Pro Football Focus to tell me
that that was Those guys were vulnerable, and I don't
believe anything they say.

Speaker 3 (01:45:55):
I don't. I'm pretty much with you on that. So
if people want to put.

Speaker 14 (01:45:58):
That on TV because Chris Collins were stilling game and
he owns Pro Football Focus, have thatd it.

Speaker 5 (01:46:03):
I'm not paying any attention, but.

Speaker 9 (01:46:05):
It is funny that they all got roasted.

Speaker 3 (01:46:07):
That's kind of what on the broadcast. What I mean
they stink.

Speaker 5 (01:46:09):
Yeah, yeah, well that's what I was getting at.

Speaker 9 (01:46:12):
And they got to Herbert. They just didn't turn him over.

Speaker 14 (01:46:14):
Yeah, and he escaped. Could have at least once, maybe twice.
I don't know about that dogg or play. That's a
tough play.

Speaker 5 (01:46:22):
Deflected diving, but the peas, it's in your hands, No,
that's not the more egregious of the two.

Speaker 3 (01:46:28):
Gotta catch it when they throw it to you. Sante Samuel.

Speaker 14 (01:46:31):
According to ESPN, Sante Samuel Junior is joining the Steelers
five ten and eighty pound cornerback. Former second rounder of
the Chargers out of Florida State, fifty career games, forty
seven career starts, six career picks, and he had a
three interception game in the playoffs against Jacksonville in twenty
twenty two.

Speaker 5 (01:46:51):
Actually it was twenty twenty three, but it was twenty
two playoffs. Maybe that's your answer.

Speaker 14 (01:46:55):
Maybe they'll throw it to him once or twice while
they're targeting Jamar Chase twenty five times, three thirty times.
What's what's the limit there?

Speaker 3 (01:47:06):
Well, look, you know when I was talking to Merylo,
I was saying that was the best game of Joe
Flacco's life from an accuracy standpoint, and I'm sure it was.
But also there were several plays where Jamar Chase is
running free, notably the one that mattened game on the line. Yes,
and there isn't one about five yards and the yak

(01:47:28):
turned it into a huge game.

Speaker 5 (01:47:30):
Yeah, it's annoying, annoying. I was serious when we were
talking to Maryland. I don't know what's going to happen Sunday.

Speaker 3 (01:47:40):
I have no idea. How could you. It's just Jecko
and Hyde and it's the Bengals. The Browns play the
Ravens this weekend.

Speaker 9 (01:47:48):
Yeah, the Browns versus the Browns.

bottom line. I don't care if I do.

Speaker 8 (01:50:29):
For three yards.

We gotta win.

Speaker 12 (01:50:31):

Well, you speak about the biggest implications, at the possible
bold implications.

Speaker 3 (01:50:43):
That makes the winning the bigger, doesn't it.

Speaker 6 (01:50:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:50:45):
It does. But you know what, we need to just
worry about taking them one game at a time.

Speaker 8 (01:50:49):
This is our first game that we took care of.

Speaker 3 (01:50:52):
We got two more games left and this is a
type of character this football team has and we got
two more games to prove it.

Speaker 5 (01:50:59):
All right, Tom, thanks, thanks of the We apologize for
todder Palko's language and the heat of the moment.

Speaker 3 (01:51:09):
Not yeh man, I mean I remember where I was
when that happened. That's so funny. He was so much
fun to watch as a player. He was with the media.

Speaker 5 (01:51:18):
He didn't have much of a pro career, but God
bless Tyler was like our Baker Mayfield.

Speaker 9 (01:51:22):
That's exactly the energy that he had.

Speaker 3 (01:51:25):
It's so much fun to watch.

Speaker 9 (01:51:27):
Yeah, his dad's a pretty good coach too.

Speaker 3 (01:51:30):
Addie, what was in your algorithm this week.

Speaker 10 (01:51:32):
Sometimes we align with the stories of our childhood so
much we don't know how to come at it from
any other angle. But just like I've mentioned on the
show before, and this is not my observation that like,
even if you looked at something like Missus Doubtfire from
another angle, it's actually a horror movie. But here is
comedian Daniel Fox. He is presenting the theory here that

(01:51:53):
Peter Pan, not Captain Hook, is actually the villain.

Speaker 3 (01:51:58):
Captain Hook.

Speaker 23 (01:52:00):
Is a nice, gay, eccentric, disabled sailor, an inspiration running
a full crew who love him. He's a good employer.
He's sailing around. He's got an old fashioned, lovely rustic
ship with his little sub boyfriend Shmi, sailing around having

(01:52:20):
a lovely time while a flying ageless demon chases them.
Peter and the Boy that Never grows up, I beg
your pardon. You are not a boy the boy that
never grows up. Oh so you're hundreds, possibly thousands of
years old. You're not the boy that never grows up.
You're the ninety year old man on Tinder going eighteen

(01:52:42):
looking for same horrible right an His entire thing is
creeping into children's bedrooms in Victorian England through their windows
and then luring them into his fantasy world.

Speaker 3 (01:52:57):
That's not the hero.

Speaker 23 (01:52:58):
He should be on a list. And the kid's attack
is a vulnerable kids. They have like cruel parents that
hate them. You don't see that in the film that
they called their daughter Wendy, So you have to assume.
And how does he get them? Oh, because he's aided
and abetted by tinker Bell, his accomplice, this little pick me.

(01:53:19):
The whole gang is then soaring through the air once
they've got them in, circling around Captain Hook and his friends.
Captain Hook, he's.

Speaker 8 (01:53:25):
Got a horrible hook.

Speaker 3 (01:53:26):
He's got a horrible iron hook. Have you seen him?

Speaker 23 (01:53:28):
He's not got a normal hand, like has he has
a hook? Yes, he has a prosthetic hand. You what's
a wild thing to target and bully someone for their
lack of a hand some horrible accident. Yes, a hook
is a weird choice, which me likes it. But like,
sorry accident, very generous, Peter. How did he lose the hand?

Speaker 3 (01:53:49):
Oh?

Speaker 23 (01:53:49):
You cut his hand off, and now you're bullying him
for it, chasing him around, calling him Captain Hook.

Speaker 3 (01:53:56):
And by the way, there's no way. He was born
with that name.

Speaker 23 (01:54:00):
Peter gave him that name, baby howk way profound coincidence.
He was definitely just like Captain Leslie or something before
Peter came along. It's the equivalent if I kicked someone
off the stage tonight and then the next day was like, everybody, look,
sergeant Wheelchair, wildly inappropriate. He is a flying ablest pedophile

(01:54:29):
and for anyone who's uncomfortable with that, oh, I'm so sorry.
His gang is called the Lost Boys, another way of
phrasing that missing chiltern. The man lives in Netherland. He
named it after Michael Jackson.

Speaker 3 (01:54:51):
That's so good. Was hilarious, created Yeah, one punch after
another never stops. Maybe look, all right, Bill, what was
in your algorithm? Okay? So I follow these guys.

Speaker 7 (01:55:07):
I don't actually I don't follow these guys, but they
pop up in my algorithm all the time, and they
ask each other really thought provoking questions.

Speaker 3 (01:55:21):
If a man has no arms and he has a
gun in his pocket, is that man armed or unarmed? Man?
Makes you think? Really? Yeah, that's one both? Yeah, I
think both. The answer is both. I think things that

(01:55:44):
make you go hmm.

Speaker 9 (01:55:46):
It's like Jack candy.

Speaker 5 (01:55:47):
Yes, it makes you go hmmm, well it won't surprise
you all.

Speaker 3 (01:55:53):
What's in my algorithm this week? All right, I couldn't.
I've ruined a lot of people's algorithms in town. I really,
I'm sorry. It was the fiftieth anniversary the wreck of
the Edmund Fitzgerald.

Speaker 13 (01:56:05):
This is a.

Speaker 5 (01:56:08):
Clip from the Great le Lakes Shipwreck Museum.

Speaker 3 (01:56:13):
The story of this song is a story in and
of itself, how this legendary tune came to be. And
this guy's a Gordon Lightfoot impersonator basically, But Gordo loved
him and became friends with them, and he was almost
like Gallagher two to Gordon Lightfoot.

Speaker 5 (01:56:32):
But he explains in this interview there was a whole lot.

Speaker 3 (01:56:35):
Of documentaries about the Fits over the last couple of
bill we call it the Fits in the community. Her her, yeah,
well when she went down, of course, yes, we might
have forgotten if not for Gordon Lightfoot song. But Gordo,
I'll tell you what, that song almost didn't happen.

Speaker 11 (01:56:53):
Recording the songs for Summertime Dream, my favorite Gordon Lightfoot album,
and one day they got some time left at the
end into the session and Gordon just pops out of
nowhere and says, hey, since we've got a little time
left here, let's play the Shipwreck song. Let's play it
all the way through. And the guys in the band said,
what do we play? We've never heard it? He said, well,

(01:57:16):
just you know, I've kind of hummed it. I mean,
it's kind of the same thing over and over again.
Terry's going to start it for us, and Rick will
come in with some bass, and you know, Pee Wee's
going to add some stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:57:27):
Just play what you feel.

Speaker 11 (01:57:28):
Just before they started, Barry Keen, the drummer, brought up
a topic and he said, Gord, am I in this
Do we have drums in this song?

Speaker 3 (01:57:35):
And Gorge said yeah, I'll nod to you when to
come in, and they got it done. They played it
through the song.

Speaker 11 (01:57:42):
On the other side of the glass. The engineer in
the recording session said, you guys want to hear it
back again?

Speaker 3 (01:57:51):
He said, you mean you recorded it? Well, you've been
fooling around with it for two weeks.

Speaker 11 (01:57:57):
I figured if you were going to play it all
the way through, i'd roll tape played it for the
record company. Record company said, all right, get it ready
to put on the album like you're doing the other
songs and we'll think about it. They worked on that
song for two weeks, playing it over and over and
over again, and they never could get it to sound

(01:58:19):
the way that it sounded that first time they played it.
And that's what you heard on the radio the first
time they had ever played the song.

Speaker 3 (01:58:30):
How crazy is that? I mean, there is some magic
to the first time, but the precision in which they
play a song that they didn't know always blows me away,
like that could have been a train wreck. Tempo's perfect,
the films are perfect, and like feel it did Gordon
tell the bass player to stay on the one during

(01:58:52):
those verses during the interludes and then drop like that's
part of what this part. And then when it kicks
into the verses, he follows the chorus yeah, and it
like opens it all up, like did that guy just
make that decision or did he not know what to
do so he stayed there right?

Speaker 9 (01:59:12):
And then this is Gordon looking around, going he's my man.

Speaker 3 (01:59:16):
Every gos lit the words turn the minutes two hours.
Maybe he's the best line ever gets good line.

Speaker 10 (01:59:24):
The searchers are saying, white Fish babs.

Speaker 3 (01:59:30):
Behind it so there. Fiftieth anniversary of Edmund Fitzgerald was
passed Monday the tenth was the fiftieth anniversary of its sinking,
and my algorithm is polluted.

Speaker 8 (01:59:43):
I'm rude for life in it, man, I.

Speaker 5 (01:59:45):
Said, happy like a hundred of them just to prove
to her how bad it is.

Speaker 8 (01:59:49):
But I'm getting I mean, I'm totally getting them now.

Speaker 3 (01:59:52):
Because I sent you so many. Yeah, I mean, way, drug,
There's only so much you can do. What's your next
quirky historical I don't no. I think that one because
of the Great Lakes really kind of hit me, you
know what I mean, like my lawyer of the Great Lakes,
And I never really considered that that shipwreck more than
what the song showed me. But because it was the fiftieth,

(02:00:15):
a lot of stuff started to pop up about it.
And when I googled, like a documentary on it, there
was two from Detroit news stations that they did, like
on the local Fox or the local NBC affiliate, and
they were really good, and I was like, oh my gosh.
So then I just kept watching because there's a whole

(02:00:36):
bunch of them out there, and then they kept Once
you do that, you can't get away from it. Everything
I have now is a meme about the Edmond Fitzgerald.
As you read the book, No, The Gales of November. No,
I tried to get that guy on the show John Bacon.
So I don't know, maybe we'll get him next week
or so. The accomplished guy. Yeah, I didn't realize how

(02:00:57):
accomplished he was. But he's in all the documentary and
he's really good. But that got to the point. I
don't know if I told you guys this yesterday when
they're like flashing guy's faces on the screen that that
died in the in the wreck, and I'm like, oh, yeah,
that's Champ and I know their names. I'm like, yeah, exactly.
Like once you start to their failures, send me that yesterday?

Speaker 5 (02:01:16):
Did it just pop in? I got the uh the
roster the pictures of what. I didn't send it to you.
That just showed up on your feed because of me,
because your phone is I've.

Speaker 3 (02:01:26):
Done some Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:01:28):
I guess I shouldn't say deep dives into this.

Speaker 3 (02:01:31):
No, you're not allowed.

Speaker 9 (02:01:34):
You're actually not allowed to do it deep.

Speaker 3 (02:01:38):
Into that. But the fact that there was six thousand
shipwrecks on the Great lakes six thousand over the course
of one hundred years, and that was the last one.

Speaker 5 (02:01:46):
Well, and imagine too, like New England in the eighteen hundreds.
Oh yeah, I mean that's something that some people died.
They went on boat trying to kill whales. They died, right, yeah, exactly. Yeah,
Well he died honorably trying to get us food. But these,
of course, these guys were trying to get pellets to
Cleveland iron ore pellets and it just that boat just

(02:02:09):
was not equipped for that storm that day, Mike.

Speaker 3 (02:02:13):
But who knows. You never would have liked that. Nobody
would know the name Edmund Fitzgerald if it wasn't for
that Gordon Lightfoot song.

Speaker 5 (02:02:21):
And he was a baseball not as well as an
insurance executive, Edmund Fitzgerald, really did he?

Speaker 3 (02:02:27):
Well? I mean, was he a pirates fan because that
would be fitting. Oh no, oh no, no, Mark Mannen's
going to join us at nine thirty?

Speaker 9 (02:02:37):
Was it McCartney last night? Wasn't he?

Speaker 3 (02:02:39):
Was he? Yeah? I thought he was. Oh well, we'll
get his review on and I'm interested to hear what
he has to say. But that's our algorithm there. Yeah,
Radio Abby has your news.

Speaker 5 (02:02:51):
When we come back.

Speaker 10 (02:02:51):
We had the date for the opening of the new
airport terminal, and Kim Kardashian field the bar exam but
blames the psychics for lying to her about it.

Speaker 3 (02:02:59):
And stay tuned for a big announcement about the DV
Morning show coming up at nine forty five today.

Speaker 20 (02:03:04):
Free Ride, joy Ride, whatever you ride, Save a seat
for Chad Tyson. He's got a reloaded cut for the
DV Morning show, Sports and a Workforce commercial. Free hour

Speaker 5 (02:03:21):
DVE Yo, It's Smart Madden, super genius.

Speaker 3 (02:03:25):
Have you been injured?

Speaker 8 (02:03:26):
If so, call the banked.

Speaker 10 (02:03:28):
Her entire career on the male gaze, so she doesn't
have the empathy of women. But she also doesn't show
empathy in any social issue or any social context, so
she doesn't possess empathy.

Speaker 8 (02:03:40):
So she's trying to show a character with empathy.

Speaker 10 (02:03:44):
So when you strip her of the main component of
her value, which is the male gaze, the movie bok.

Speaker 9 (02:03:51):
Yeah, right, nobody wants to see her in a sports bra.

Speaker 3 (02:03:54):
Right, So I'm like, I think I figured this out,
Like as well said, I don't want to see the
hot chick box. Wow, hold on, let me rephrase that.

Speaker 8 (02:04:09):
Wait a minute, I just I do want to see
you more than any Yeah, in a pool.

Speaker 2 (02:04:18):
Brandy Bellman and the d V Morning Show.

Speaker 3 (02:04:22):
Now all right, some other beautiful actresses who went ugly
for rolls. Nicole Kidman in the Virginia Wolf The Hours,
she did all we don't get to do that anymore. Charlie,
she played Virginia Wolf. Yeah, and she was pretty.

Speaker 8 (02:04:41):
Uh well she got a big prosthetic nose.

Speaker 5 (02:04:46):
Yeah, she's still you still get it, uh Charlie still,
I know.

Speaker 10 (02:04:56):
Actually I was talking about the Frank Jacob Alordi as Frankenstein.

Speaker 8 (02:05:00):
I'm like, fringing is so good at.

Speaker 3 (02:05:01):
Yeah, Charlie Staron in Monster, Gwenna's Paltrow in Shallow How
I forgot about that one.

Speaker 8 (02:05:10):
Mistake.

Speaker 3 (02:05:11):
I don't agree with this one. Angelina Jolie and Girl interrupted,
Oh yeah.

Speaker 8 (02:05:18):
That's not true at all. She was crazy hot.

Speaker 9 (02:05:21):
Yeah, she's like the hot crazy mental institute though.

Speaker 8 (02:05:25):
Yeah, sometimes that makes them hotter.

Speaker 3 (02:05:27):
Yeah, she didn't like put on like prosthetics to look uglier.
Angelica Houston in The Witches.

Speaker 8 (02:05:34):
She's you know, well she literally turned into a rat.

Speaker 3 (02:05:36):
Yeah, they say, Uh, Jennifer Aniston in a movie called Cake,
which I don't know at all, but it just looks
like Jennifer Aniston without makeup, Like she still looks beautiful.

Speaker 8 (02:05:50):
And you really got ugly for this one Hollywood standards.

Speaker 9 (02:05:53):
You mean my natural face?

Speaker 8 (02:05:55):
Yeah, you mean, yeah, how I look when I wake up?

Speaker 3 (02:05:57):
God, you're ugly. Wow, that's brave. You really went ugly
for that role. Yeah. They say the same thing about
Julia Roberts in a movie called Secret in Their Eyes,
And it's just Julia Roberts with a dull, down homely look.
It's still and she's got bangs, but it's still Julia Roberts.

(02:06:20):
Although I don't know, actually she doesn't look as I mean,
she's got big ears and but like, yeah, maybe she's not.
That's not the best look for ears. Julia Roberts ears.

Speaker 7 (02:06:35):
Was there a part of Pretty Moment that was about
that she's self conscious about her ears or something?

Speaker 9 (02:06:40):
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (02:06:41):
I think they made something of that in some film.

Speaker 3 (02:06:44):
She got big ears. But I mean, I still think
she's one of the most beautiful women that ever walked
the ear.

Speaker 9 (02:06:49):
Talk nice about her.

Speaker 3 (02:06:50):
She can hear you. Cameron Cameron Diaz in Being John Malkovich.
I mean she had a wig on, yeah, but she
was Frompy in that movie.

Speaker 5 (02:07:01):
Yeah, But like I think Frumpy is different than I.

Speaker 8 (02:07:04):
Would use the word mousey, all right.

Speaker 5 (02:07:07):
Yeah, like Anne Hathaway in The Princess.

Speaker 10 (02:07:09):
Diaries for like part of the film, which again is
to say they like gave her like a hair color
that didn't pop.

Speaker 3 (02:07:18):
Agnes or Vanessa Hudgens playing Agnes Bailey in the movie
Gimme Shelter, She yeah, she doesn't.

Speaker 9 (02:07:25):
Never seen it.

Speaker 3 (02:07:26):
I mean she looks like Jack White basically in that movie.
Mariah Carey in Precious, Oh, get out of her God
being a woman who's so horrible, she's imprecious. I never
saw she.

Speaker 10 (02:07:38):
Plays the guidance counselor and literally, guys, it's Mariah Carey
with a.

Speaker 3 (02:07:42):
Little less makeup. Did you ever hear the story of
Bill Bill Burr watching the movie Precious on a plane
and he was laughing uncontrollably hard.

Speaker 8 (02:07:50):
It's not good.

Speaker 3 (02:07:52):
He's like, she's getting this kicked out and I couldn't
stop laughing.

Speaker 4 (02:08:01):
He's like, because it's uncomfortable, and when things are uncomfortable.

Speaker 3 (02:08:05):
I laugh, And you know, he's like, people are looking
at him on a plane and he's like cackling, laughing
while he's watching Precious, Like Precious, I never need to
watch that one's.

Speaker 8 (02:08:16):
Never have you never? You've never watched, so I will
never watch it.

Speaker 5 (02:08:20):
Yeah, it's why one time, why subject yourself to that?

Speaker 10 (02:08:24):
It was I had to watch it because she won
awards for it, and I needed to know. And now
I know, and now I've known.

Speaker 3 (02:08:31):
N Sandra Bullock in Miscongeniality, they say early on, she's
like wearing sweatpants, cargo pants and T shirts to play
like a butch girl in the beginning of that one.

Speaker 9 (02:08:44):
Does that count if she's hot by the end of
the movie.

Speaker 3 (02:08:46):
I don't think so.

Speaker 10 (02:08:47):
That's the point is that, you know, you take these
really hot people and just be like, we'll make them
ugly by putting them in The things that I go.

Speaker 3 (02:08:53):
To target is Rooney Mara in the movie The Girl
with the Dragon Tattoo. She looks like Marilyn Manson.

Speaker 10 (02:09:00):
Disagree, Mia Goff made a career of that good point.

Speaker 3 (02:09:05):
Uma Thurman as poison Ivy in Batman and Robin when
she was like geeky her citizen persona.

Speaker 10 (02:09:15):
I can't believe we're on the ground floor of this building.
I wish we were up higher so I could jump.

Speaker 3 (02:09:23):
Drew Barrymore in Never Been Kissed Roche Yes, and then
Emma Thompson and Nanny McPhee. Well, yeah, she's like warts
and stuff.

Speaker 10 (02:09:36):
She is an actress. Getting ugly for a role is
not looking like a normal person. It's when you were
adding prosthetics, like you're saying they had to like truly
gain wait for a role, change their face like they
had to, you know again talking about Nicole Kidman, like
they literally changed her face.

Speaker 8 (02:09:58):
Yeah, but good god, not wearing a little bit of makeup.
That's not brave, that's normal.

Speaker 3 (02:10:08):
She Sidney Sweeney said she put on thirty to thirty
five pounds of muscle for this movie. Is that possible?

Speaker 5 (02:10:15):
No, No, that sounds ridiculous.

Speaker 8 (02:10:21):
Yeah, it doesn't look like it.

Speaker 3 (02:10:22):
She doesn't look ripped. Months of intense old school training,
including weight training in boxing sessions. I mean month, thirty
five pounds of muscle in months doesn't sound right to me. No.
What about Hillary Swank a million dollar baby? Oh yeah,
I mean she's she still looks like Hillary Swank when

(02:10:43):
she's not like boxing though. Right, yeah, boy, that's another movie.
That's the ending of that one.

Speaker 10 (02:10:48):
That's this movie though, I think to Bill's point, she
doesn't look ripped.

Speaker 8 (02:10:56):
She looks a little bit.

Speaker 3 (02:10:58):
No, are you saying that her pr people are lying
thirty pounds of muscle is insane? Yeah, that's a lot
of that's she barely.

Speaker 9 (02:11:07):
That's unheard of unless she was on straight up steroids.

Speaker 3 (02:11:11):
She might have been, but I don't think so.

Speaker 8 (02:11:13):
I hope.

Speaker 3 (02:11:14):
I'm gonna go ahead and say, Ron Burgundy style, I
don't believe you, mabbie. What's going on? News?

Speaker 10 (02:11:20):
This hour is brought to you by Better Call simost
to cloudy and breezy with a shower and a high
around fifty. The wait for the opening of the Pittsburgh
International airports highly anticipated new Landside Terminal is nearly over.
The airport on Monday announced an official opening date for
the one point seven billion dollar facility, a modernized and

(02:11:41):
more aesthetically pleasing update of the terminal. It's going to
be November the eighteenth, and that will culminate more than
a decade of planning and four years of construction. Additionally,
the three thousand, three hundred space new terminal garage has
three times the amount of covered parking and digital signs
with real time counts of the number of available spaces.

(02:12:03):
So that's nice because you'll be able to tell before
you go in. And the refurbished airside terminal, now linked
directly to the landside terminal, will have twenty new or
renovated concession spaces. I think what's good about this is
that they've done a bunch of run throughs. You were
talking earlier Bill to you about like when we're looking
at things like the draft, how like they're kind of

(02:12:25):
clocking things and what works and what doesn't.

Speaker 8 (02:12:27):
They've done that.

Speaker 10 (02:12:28):
When we were kind of saying how silly it was
that they were doing basically dress rehearsals for the terminal,
that is what they've done here. They've seen how efficient
this is going to run, so there should be Again,
there's other issues with the airport's going on now, but
they are trying to make this so that by the
time it's opened by the eighteenth, there are as few

(02:12:48):
surprises as there could possibly be.

Speaker 5 (02:12:50):
As long as they fix the bag as carousel, Well,
what's wrong with that?

Speaker 8 (02:12:56):
It's not fun.

Speaker 3 (02:12:57):
It takes forever. Pittsburgh is bad.

Speaker 9 (02:13:00):
Worse than other places, I think.

Speaker 11 (02:13:02):
So.

Speaker 8 (02:13:03):
I think so that is the most stressful thing.

Speaker 9 (02:13:06):
Oh yeah, waiting to see if they've lost your luggage.

Speaker 8 (02:13:10):
It just seems like, out of all of the.

Speaker 10 (02:13:13):
Buttoned up aspects of the airport that just like winging
it at the end, yeah, of just being like hope
it shows up and hope no one grabs my stuff.

Speaker 8 (02:13:24):
It seems like a really weird way for.

Speaker 3 (02:13:25):
Us to do that. I don't know how you do it,
But I also think there's a little bit of like
it's like that Luisa Kate bit about like being mad
about the phone call not going through right away, and
he say it.

Speaker 5 (02:13:36):
Has to go to space.

Speaker 3 (02:13:37):
Yeah, and then come back from space and find your friend. Like,
there's a lot of space between that plane which just landed. Course. Oh,
by the way, there's a lot of safety concerns with
the people who are you know, taking the bags off
the plane. They have to be careful and then putting
them on you know, a carrier and then moving them

(02:13:59):
somewhere where they then get shipped. Just as far as
you have to walk in the airport, which is pretty
damn far to get to the baggage carousel and then
dump it in the right one. Like all of that
reasonably should take some time. It's just when it's like
an hour that you're like, come on, it's the time.
But it's more that I want some kind of technology

(02:14:22):
that connects me to the bag.

Speaker 8 (02:14:24):
You know, That's what I want, because like.

Speaker 5 (02:14:27):
You can buy those those Apple trackers no no, no, but.

Speaker 8 (02:14:30):
Like their report to do it. I want them to
do it, like when they track my bag. I want
them to be like, this connects to your ticket, or
this connects to you.

Speaker 3 (02:14:41):
I don't it's not like an air tag, but like
you know, you could just put your own air tag
in there, I guess.

Speaker 9 (02:14:45):
But it'd be great if.

Speaker 7 (02:14:46):
They had like the grub hub technology where you can
see the car coming towards your house, like you want
your baggage, you could see it.

Speaker 8 (02:14:54):
That's what I mean. If they did that, I would
check bags all the time.

Speaker 10 (02:14:58):
But that's usually why I do don't, because there's this
knowledge that airports lose your.

Speaker 8 (02:15:04):
Stuff, and so I don't like to check bags if
I don't have to.

Speaker 3 (02:15:08):
I just don't like it because it takes longer, that's all.
And there's no better feeling than like bouncing off a plane.
Having just kind of right into a cab.

Speaker 1 (02:15:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (02:15:17):
Well, there are many flight delays and cancelations of course,
due to the government shutdown. So what do you do
if your flight gets canceled? Real simple, ask experts, and
here is their advice.

Speaker 8 (02:15:28):
One is, move as.

Speaker 10 (02:15:30):
Fast as you can to rebook, like lightning fast, because
everybody's going to be doing the same thing.

Speaker 8 (02:15:34):
So as soon as you can do it, try to
do it. But use the airlines app to yeah book.

Speaker 5 (02:15:39):
Yeah, totally do not.

Speaker 3 (02:15:41):
Like last night, the line of people at that concert
waiting for ticket help was huge, and it just reminded
me of when you're an airport and a flight gets
canceled and then you like see like oh here's the
United help desk and the line wraps around the corner.
It's like, why would you even bother? At that point?
Get on the phone.

Speaker 10 (02:16:00):
Well, and getting on the phone is the other aspect
of this, because everybody is so allergic to making phone calls.

Speaker 8 (02:16:05):
But while you're on the app, like if let's.

Speaker 10 (02:16:08):
Say you have a laptop or something like that, you
know you're looking at their options, call the airline like multitask.
Just try to get there as fast as you can
be as flexible as you can about when to fly.
Try not to kind of hold the line there just
because there aren't a lot of options.

Speaker 8 (02:16:26):
Sometimes, if your.

Speaker 10 (02:16:28):
Airline doesn't have options, ask for a full refund and
then just book with another company as soon as you
can and book six a m hour flights because they
rarely have issues.

Speaker 8 (02:16:38):
Yep, so those are all your you know, exactly all right.

Speaker 10 (02:16:43):
Kim Kardashian announced on Instagram on Saturday that she failed
the California Bar exam but remains committed to her legal career.

Speaker 8 (02:16:53):
She is forty five years old now.

Speaker 10 (02:16:55):
She wrote that she was so close to passing and
called the setback fuel for motivation. Six years into this
law journey, she wrote, I'm still all in until I
passed the bar. No shortcuts, no giving up, just more
studying and even more determination. However, she seems very mad
at her team of psychics for lying about her passing

(02:17:19):
the bar exam.

Speaker 24 (02:17:20):
All of the psychics that we have met with and
that we're obsessed with are all full of They all, collectively,
maybe four of them, have told me I was going
to pass the bar. So they're all full pathological liars.
Don't believe anything they say.

Speaker 9 (02:17:35):
Do not call miss cleo. I mean, that is so funny.

Speaker 5 (02:17:42):
How can you even get mad at a sec Have
you gone to a psychic before?

Speaker 11 (02:17:45):
No?

Speaker 3 (02:17:45):
Ever, I don't like messing with that mojo. I don't
believe any of it's true, but if it is, I
don't need to tap into that world, you know.

Speaker 5 (02:17:53):
Tap into the afterlife, tippy tap.

Speaker 3 (02:17:56):
John F. Kennedy Junior famously failed the bar exam in
New York twice before he passed. Hillary Clinton failed one
time also, really, and uh, Michelle Obama failed on her
first attempt. Franklin Roosevelt failed on his first attempt, So
I think we can agree. Kim Kardashian shares a lot

(02:18:17):
in common with Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Speaker 10 (02:18:19):
Really, And she passed the baby bar exam, which sounds
like it's not hard at all, but I bet you
it is.

Speaker 8 (02:18:27):
I don't think I passed the baby bar. O.

Speaker 3 (02:18:29):
Hell, what's the baby bar?

Speaker 17 (02:18:31):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:18:33):
Baby bar. It's just a tiny little one, a little
booty bar, pure bar.

Speaker 6 (02:18:37):
Oh.

Speaker 8 (02:18:37):
It took her three attempts for the baby bar.

Speaker 3 (02:18:39):
That's what she thought it was going to be. She's like,
I studied and she starts stretching.

Speaker 10 (02:18:42):
They're like, this is not you're not practicing making babies.

Speaker 8 (02:18:46):
Kim oh.

Speaker 3 (02:18:48):
I made a movie about that with Kanye A lot.
That's got to be I mean, that's got to be
a frustrating thing when you see there the father's behavior
spiral the way it did, and they like watch your
kid and be like, please don't have any of that.
Please don't have any of that. Please, please don't have
any of that.

Speaker 7 (02:19:06):
And then they name all their kids like directions. Yes, north,
there's northwest, there's uh southwest. Yeah, yeah, flights want to
get away from your dad because saying Nazi stuff.

Speaker 5 (02:19:21):
East west? Do they have an east west?

Speaker 3 (02:19:23):
Oh? I should west west?

Speaker 13 (02:19:26):
Wow?

Speaker 3 (02:19:26):
Wow west of course.

Speaker 9 (02:19:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (02:19:27):
We always love I do love that one. We'll finish
with this one.

Speaker 10 (02:19:32):
Record cold temperatures in Florida have resulted in our favorite
time of the year, falling iguanas.

Speaker 8 (02:19:39):
South Florida's cold blooded.

Speaker 10 (02:19:40):
Iguanas are experiencing muscle control loss due to the cold,
leading to a paralyzed state where they can just fall
out of the trees. The iguanas are not dead, but
they are in a paralyzed state. They can be revived
if the temperatures increase quickly.

Speaker 9 (02:19:55):
Mouth to mouth, you gotta go for it.

Speaker 8 (02:19:58):
See what happens.

Speaker 10 (02:20:00):
Multiple Florida Citi's posted record lows on Tuesday, November the eleventh.

Speaker 9 (02:20:04):
It's cold down there.

Speaker 7 (02:20:05):
Our buddy Tommy Sunshine sent us a video showing us
just how cold it is.

Speaker 5 (02:20:09):
She's in a winter jacket. Yeah, he was on his
way to the Hooters at the Villages.

Speaker 9 (02:20:14):
Yeah, he was waiting for his ferry.

Speaker 3 (02:20:17):
Yes.

Speaker 9 (02:20:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:20:20):
If Gecko's just started falling from the sky, I mean
it's like that scene in Magnolia where frogs fall from
the sky. That would definitely be creeping out, creep me
out if you're like sitting somewhere down there and.

Speaker 7 (02:20:30):
Just well now you have Google, but before that, when
that happened down there, they'll be like, okay, apocalypse on deck.

Speaker 3 (02:20:37):
Exactly the church, biblical stuff. I feel like biblical things
happen in Florida all the time. Though.

Speaker 5 (02:20:44):
Oh yeah, dream weather forecast, you know, pestilence.

Speaker 3 (02:20:49):
Things of that nature.

Speaker 8 (02:20:50):
God's testing ground.

Speaker 3 (02:20:51):
It really is. Yeah, uh double m Mark Madden coming
up after the break and Mike Pursuda of course, will
be joining us for that. And at nine forty five,
a rural big announcement about the dv More show.

Speaker 3 (02:21:44):
Hey, it's Randy from the dv E Mortger area for
over one hundred and seven years. From a brother station
one oh five nine v X. It's Mark Madden. Ladies
and gentlemen, double, good morning. How are you.

Speaker 6 (02:21:57):
Buddy?

Speaker 9 (02:21:58):
Uh Horny?

Speaker 3 (02:21:59):
You were at Paul McCarty last night, as I was
there as well. Anxiously awaiting your review.

Speaker 6 (02:22:04):
Oh, it was brilliant. I didn't see a thing wrong
with it.

Speaker 13 (02:22:09):
I'm kind of weird in that I prefer his wings
and solo catalog to his Beatles work, which puts me
in a big minority. I kind of missed No Junior's
Farm No Rock show, but that's nitpicking. He was absolutely brilliant,
and it's mind boggling that at his age he can
still perform and sing to that level and just produce

(02:22:31):
such a great show with such a great band.

Speaker 3 (02:22:35):
The fact that he's playing and singing on every single
song is what blows me away. I mean, he's playing bass,
he's ripping guitar riffs, playing the piano, and having the
cognitive abilities to do that at a high level is
pretty amazing. I mean, his voice is obviously not what
it was fifty years ago.

Speaker 6 (02:22:56):
But I kind of cracked a little bit in the
last start of the show, didn't it?

Speaker 5 (02:23:00):
I did, But I was still amazed.

Speaker 3 (02:23:01):
He even like the fact that he would even put
maybe I'm amazed in the set list that he would
have enough balls to do that given the vocal gymnastics
that have to recur in that one, and he gave
it a shot, and half of it he did a
really good job, and half of it he struggled. But
he was like that, I'm gonna play it and if
you like it, great, and if you don't, well that's
fine too.

Speaker 13 (02:23:22):
Well I'm struck by the fact that, you know, it's
sold out a very enthusiastic, if elderly crowd.

Speaker 6 (02:23:28):
Oh was the youngest person there.

Speaker 13 (02:23:31):
And it's just it strikes me that if you're below
a certain age, you just didn't have music like that,
music just died at some point. Maybe I'm an old
fogie saying that, but like I look at it rap
and like the stuff that happened after the Gunge era
is just meaningless, just just just just crappy fodder. And

(02:23:55):
those bands won't be selling out, you know, all those
Jewish I don't know, maybe Taylor Swift will probably will,
but you get my dripped. I just don't see the
same gravitas.

Speaker 3 (02:24:04):
Well, first of all, shocked you're not a hip hop fan,
but also it doesn't have that effect for you, right,
like even like all the music you're talking about.

Speaker 7 (02:24:14):
No, But to his point, Wu Tang Clan isn't going
to be selling out acrosshore in thirty years.

Speaker 9 (02:24:19):
No, their concerts sucked when they were in their prime.

Speaker 3 (02:24:22):
Yeah, I think all rap concerts are tough.

Speaker 9 (02:24:24):
Live seventeen guys on the stage with a microphone.

Speaker 3 (02:24:27):
A lot of that hip hop stuff unless it crosses
over into something that's a little more like with the
full band and has more of like a R and
B soul tinge to it. Possibly, But in terms of
like impact of all music before we go on a
you know, Ebony magazine sponsored dissertation here that we're unqualified for,
or at least I am, the impact of all that

(02:24:49):
stuff is because they're first. There is the reason the
reason classic raw found still resonating with people is because
nothing made that imprint the way that all of that
stuff did. And it's why all the early rock and
roll in R and B and stuff like that still
sounds great too, because that influenced the people who made

(02:25:10):
classic rock. It's why old blues records always still resonate
with people. It's the foundation, and everything that comes after
it's gonna struggle to have the same import No.

Speaker 6 (02:25:20):
There's no question about that.

Speaker 13 (02:25:22):
And I've always said, I mean the Beatles, there's no
denying their impact and their brilliance. I don't consider them
best as much as I do first, But then again,
were they really first? I mean, what about Elvis, Jerry,
Lee Lewis, stuff that preceded them, which you alluded to.

Speaker 6 (02:25:36):
I mean, yeah, but it's just.

Speaker 13 (02:25:39):
Again, it's just it's the opposite of recency bias. It's
the stuff we listen to. I am nonetheless convinced I'm.

Speaker 3 (02:25:46):
Right that may be true. The set list was pretty crazy.
The fact that he played thirty four songs last night
is just amazing.

Speaker 6 (02:25:57):
Well you know why.

Speaker 13 (02:25:58):
It's because Jimmy Yank got the via violin bow with
the Pyramid of Light.

Speaker 6 (02:26:04):
It's just it's just song after song after song. It's all.
It's as poppy as it is rocky, if that makes
any sense. I liked it.

Speaker 3 (02:26:11):
He kind of went through all sorts of different phases
of not just you know, the wing stuff, and hearkening
back to the early Beatles days where they were almost
you know, the first song they recorded as the quarry
Man is kind of like a country song.

Speaker 6 (02:26:24):
Well, could you be any more?

Speaker 13 (02:26:26):
At both ends of the spectrum right away, Randy when
he plays help to open up and then coming up, which.

Speaker 6 (02:26:32):
Was this kind of. I don't know if it's a
techno song. It had that computer gloss to it.

Speaker 3 (02:26:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:26:36):
I love that song coming up though, but yeah, gave
it through it.

Speaker 6 (02:26:39):
It's arguably my favorite McCartney song.

Speaker 7 (02:26:41):
The set list at the end of the show Mark
Randy's been reading it off this morning was absolutely incredible.

Speaker 5 (02:26:48):
I've got a feeling.

Speaker 3 (02:26:49):
Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band, Helter Skelter, Golden Slumbers
carry the Weight. The end was the encore that to
the end of the show. Oh yeah, from Lady Madonna,
down lad even Donna, Jet, benefit of mister Kite something
oh Blood deobladt Band on the Run, get back, Let
it be Live and Let Die? Hey, Jude, come on,
you know what?

Speaker 6 (02:27:09):
You know what I noticed?

Speaker 13 (02:27:10):
And I wonder if it's kind of a rib or
just coincidence. But you know they only use the pyro
for living Let Die right, Yes, it's exactly the same
pyro if memory serves, the same jets, the same flames,
the same everything the Guns N' Roses does when they
play Live.

Speaker 6 (02:27:27):
And Let Die.

Speaker 3 (02:27:28):
Oh I love that. Really that's awesome.

Speaker 5 (02:27:30):
Uh, well, will the Steelers offense catch fire this weekend?

Speaker 6 (02:27:33):
Mark, there's some weird stuff going on there. The Aaron
Rodgers thing. You guys have talked about the New York
Post story.

Speaker 3 (02:27:42):
Right about his wife.

Speaker 13 (02:27:44):
Yeah, but how she's a fan of may not exist,
which I think is a rotten thing for The New
York Post to do well.

Speaker 10 (02:27:51):
I see.

Speaker 3 (02:27:52):
I wondered if maybe because he lives in Malibu, that
she lives there, that he went home finally for the
first time since being a Steeler and then had a
big honeydew list and got her harangue all weekend and
it just had a bad game.

Speaker 13 (02:28:03):
Well, the New York Post story, I hear Rogers is
upset about it, and I heard what he's upset about
is they got the cooperation of some Steelers wags, wives
and girlfriends in doing the story, which would wait me
mad too. But he looked just kind of I don't know,
cranky rattle from the get go, not just when things
went bad. And I think because of that, this game

(02:28:24):
against Cincinnati Sunday is a big.

Speaker 6 (02:28:28):
It will tell a tale not only for the team
but for him. I think.

Speaker 13 (02:28:31):
I mean, if they don't win this game, and they should,
but what if they don't. Flacco's their Bogey quarterback. If
they don't win this game, it's gonna go bad in
a hurry, worse than a hurry.

Speaker 3 (02:28:41):
Well, I agree with everything you were saying leading up
to that game against the Chargers, that not only was
Rogers the least of their worries, he was the best
thing they had going for them at the time because
so much else was in flux. But I do think
that it was the offensive line breaking down. Roderick Jones
still just not having the know how and or ability
to reliable at left tackle and requiring these you know,

(02:29:03):
I call him training wheels, and Mike likes to correct
me and say that as the jumbo package is what
they're doing and they're having success with it. But I
still think that that just smells of like you can
you can't do more, you have to do less because
of Broderick Jones.

Speaker 6 (02:29:16):
Oh that I agree with you, absolutely so. And Broderick
Jones failing is their fault. It's the coaches.

Speaker 13 (02:29:23):
They brought him in to be their long term left tackle,
traded up to get him, then made him right tackle
for two years, so an absolute scrub, and Dan Moore
could keep playing out of veteran respect and now he's
in Tennessee and everybody's figured out he's the worst left
tackle in football. I think the coaching is just horrifically bad.
I mean I think it's indescribably bad. You look at

(02:29:44):
the stuff with Jalen Larren. Well we can't play him
more because we're not converting third downs.

Speaker 6 (02:29:49):
Well, sure you can't. He's your best defensive weapon.

Speaker 3 (02:29:51):
Playing one's third done, give him the ball war.

Speaker 13 (02:29:54):
I mean, it's all just every time that guy opens
his mouth, horseman or comes tumbling out, and it's just
reflect that in the way the.

Speaker 6 (02:30:00):
Team is administered. It's just awfully coached.

Speaker 13 (02:30:03):
I mean, just he should have been gone so long
ago and he won't ever be. And if that doesn't
frustrate Steeler fans, I don't know what can.

Speaker 3 (02:30:12):
We were just talking about the Penn's trip to Sweden
and I was asking about why the NHL does this,
and Mike says, well, it's a kin to like the
NFL Europe stuff.

Speaker 5 (02:30:20):
And Bill, you brought up a good point.

Speaker 3 (02:30:22):
I think Sweden's in on hockey, Like to the choir,
what are we doing?

Speaker 6 (02:30:30):
Yeah, they kind of like it.

Speaker 11 (02:30:33):
Well.

Speaker 13 (02:30:34):
I told I told everybody going over, including Sid that
the hockey don't matter.

Speaker 6 (02:30:39):
You gotta go to the Abba Museum.

Speaker 3 (02:30:41):
Oh yes, right, well no, oh come on, Randall.

Speaker 6 (02:30:46):
You gotta like Abba.

Speaker 13 (02:30:47):
I love Abba too, and people wouldn't think that I would,
but I mean McCartney said it. One other famous songwriter
said Pete Thompson that s os is the best crafted
pop song in his and I tend to agree.

Speaker 3 (02:31:01):
Yeah. Well, I like Waterloo because I think this is
ton One's Waterloo season. But we're gonna go back to
the Penguins for just a second here.

Speaker 13 (02:31:08):
Uh, I like I like Waterloo because it's a pop
song about a battle that killed thousands.

Speaker 5 (02:31:13):
Yes, yeah, there are a few of those.

Speaker 3 (02:31:17):
So the record the edmin Fitzgerald comes close.

Speaker 6 (02:31:19):
All right.

Speaker 5 (02:31:20):
I had to get one more mentioned it before we
get out of here today.

Speaker 3 (02:31:22):
Uh can they just sub out she loss on the
uh shootouts Mike or uh?

Speaker 5 (02:31:30):
Mark?

Speaker 3 (02:31:30):
Well me, Mike?

Speaker 6 (02:31:31):
Uh yeah, no, I'm righting to call me as we speak.
As we speak.

Speaker 13 (02:31:36):
Yeah, but I talked to Borky about that on my
show and he went apoplectic because it's an insult of
the goaltender. Although I think allowing seven goals and a
shootout the tempts is an insult.

Speaker 6 (02:31:47):
Of the eighteen skaters in front of you.

Speaker 13 (02:31:50):
Uh, you know, the other goal We might get hurt
because he's coming in cold, but goalie's coming cold all
the time. You know, the conversation with the Penguis has
changed so greatly because we thought they would stink and
get a top five pick. Now that they look like
they can hang in the playoff race. You got to
get every single point you can, and if that requires
changing the goalie for shootouts, I would do that. Then again,

(02:32:11):
Jari's no bonus at shootouts either.

Speaker 3 (02:32:14):
Double m Mark Madden here.

Speaker 13 (02:32:17):
But by the way, one last thing, did you see
that remake of The Running Man's Coming Out?

Speaker 5 (02:32:22):
I saw that it was coming out, but I have
not seen any trailers.

Speaker 6 (02:32:26):
I did Jalen Warrens the start, but only for the
first two downs.

Speaker 3 (02:32:31):
There's the opening Mark Madden from one.

Speaker 11 (02:32:37):
D X.

Speaker 3 (02:32:39):
All right, your WDV bud like Game Day Bart of
the week trolley stomp in in Bethel Park this NFL season,
stopping the trolley stop and grab three fifty bud light
bottles during all Steelers games, but like easy to drink
and easy to enjoy, stick around a really big announcement
about the DV Morning Show. Would we return?

Speaker 25 (02:32:56):
Hey, Pittsburgh, this is Will Howard with Pittsburgh Steelers. I
know teamwork and a winning tradition are all about, and
so does the team at Calusy Chevrolet. Having been in
business for over one hundred and seven years, they know
what it takes to keep customers coming back year after year.
Things like great pricing, great selection, and great service after
the sale. So take it from me, Will Howard, There's
never been a better time to buy or better dealer

(02:33:18):
to buy from Calucy Chevrolet. Together, let's drive.

Speaker 20 (02:33:23):
Tyson is safe for highway travel and ready to get
you from.

Speaker 3 (02:33:27):
Here to there.

Speaker 20 (02:33:28):
Thank you, my man.

Speaker 6 (02:33:29):
How's it go?

Speaker 20 (02:33:30):
He's got a reloaded cut from the DVE Morning Show,
Sports and a Workforce commercial Free hour at three afternoons
with Chad Tyson on DV.

Speaker 6 (02:33:42):
YO.

Speaker 3 (02:33:43):
It's Smart Madden, super Genius.

Speaker 24 (02:33:44):
Have you.

Speaker 3 (02:33:45):
It's the DV Morning Show Randy Bauman, Bill Crawford, Abby Krisner,
Mike Persuda and our producer Jacob Reck. And it's been
a tough week or so around here because we've kind
of been sitting with some news that we kind of
you know, I'm heartbrooking about and it's time now that
we have to relate to the listener, and I will

(02:34:05):
hand it over to you. Bill.

Speaker 7 (02:34:07):
Yeah, I'm just gonna ask for some grace here, Randy,
because there's no way to do this justice or express
the depth of my gratitude. But I just want to
take a second to say thank you to the listeners
and to you guys. After thirteen years, I'm going to
be stepping away from the morning show, and honestly, it's
just weird as hell to be saying this out loud.

(02:34:29):
This show has been such a huge part of my life.
My daughters basically grew up while I was doing this show.
I grew up while I was doing this show. I
got married while I was doing this show. I got
divorced while I was doing this show. I ran a marathon.
I almost got arrested because I couldn't get over a
velvet rope at Jurgles and spilled a beer on a
cop I've gotten headaches from laughing so hard. I've cried

(02:34:54):
talking about our co workers and loved ones that have
passed away while I was doing this show. And you know,
I've had the chance to work with some of the funniest,
most talented people you could ever hope to meet. Comics
and writers and athletes I admire greatly have become my
friends and colleagues, and I've been lucky enough to team
up with incredible local charities and businesses and work with

(02:35:18):
the Pittsburgh Freaking Steelers hosting the tailgates and the fashion
show and be part of something that's so special. And
this really has been the best damn radio show in
the city for forty plus years, and getting to be
a part of it with you guys for this long
has been an incredible privilege. I've just I've been feeling

(02:35:41):
a real pool lately to get back to my stand
up roots and explore some new opportunities and go dream chasing.
It's not an easy decision because I love this show
and this city and you guys so much. But sometimes
you've got to just follow your calling and listen to
that voice that says it's time. But mostly right now,

(02:36:01):
I just want to focus on my gratitude because I'm
so grateful. I'm grateful to all the managers here at
iHeart all the salespeople I've become friends with, and engineers
I've got to work with everyone who's listened, everyone who's
ever stopped me just to say they enjoy the show.
One of my favorite things to hear is when a
listener says they feel like they know me, and I

(02:36:23):
always say, you do. And it's been my privilege getting
to know you guys as well. Sorry, it's been an
unbelievable run and I've loved every minute of it, well
almost every minute of it. I mean, there were some
early mornings after a Steeler loss that weren't the most

(02:36:43):
fun coming here, and I fight with Mike for four hours,
but even those moments were worth it.

Speaker 9 (02:36:49):
And you know, as man Boy once said, Pittsburgh is
the best city in Pittsburgh.

Speaker 7 (02:36:55):
And I just want to say thank you to you
guys for being so fun to work with and being
such great teammates, and all the listeners for letting me
be a small part of your morning. And you know,
just to tell you, guys, no matter where I go
or what I do, I'll always be a DV guy.

Speaker 3 (02:37:14):
Man Well Well said, nobody believes in you more than me,
and I know you're gonna kick ass. And you know,
I've always said you're one of the best stand ups
in the country. And I look forward to having you
back at the DV Comedy Fest and can't thank you enough.
And I'm heartbroken over it, and I totally understand it,

(02:37:35):
and I admire your aspirations. Thanks, but you know it's
gonna suck, and uh, you're gonna be here for a
couple more days. Yeah, just so the listeners know, but
know that you you have established yourself as a d
V legend and you are part of the DV Morning
Show for a long time. Uh, integral part and uh

(02:37:56):
you know, you carved out of space in the Pittsburgh
radio landscape, which always the easiest thing to do.

Speaker 9 (02:38:01):
So get rid of me now, yeah, you're you're I mean, technically, well.

Speaker 3 (02:38:07):
You leave it. Yeah, I mean there's that. But I
have all the confidence in the world, and I just
want to say thanks for everything. You know, I love you,
and we've talked a lot the last couple of weeks,
and I'm wishing you all the best of luck. And
I know you're gonna you're gonna kill it, and so
let's have a good couple of days here. It's the
d V Morning Show.
