Speaker 1 (00:12):
WDV Pittsburgh, an iHeartRadio station, guaranteed Human.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
I went to Ritish one time and my buddy two
in the morning. He looks at the venue. The waitress
comes by, She's like, what do you want him? And
he's like, oh, the veal. We all stop, we look
at him. I'm like, what are you doing. He's like,
I give it a shot. I'm pretty hungry. It comes back,
you know, like he eats the veal. I'm like, how

(00:43):
was it.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
He's like, not that good. I'm like, it's on you.
It's on you.

Speaker 4 (00:48):
The truth is I miss being able to eat that
late and not having it affect me for three days.
Oh I eate at three o'clock in the morning on Friday.
That takes till Monday. You got me a lot of decisions, Abby,
the Domino effective that changes my lunch and dinner for
two days.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
You'r et laying in the creek for two days. Just
Brandy Bellman and the DV morning show.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
Tad Whistle with this here again this morning live and studio.
You know, we were talking about that Doors song was
just playing there Roadhouse Blues, and we groove into.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
It in the studio and I asked Abby.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
Do you think the Doors would have put out more
like classic albums? Would the next album been better or
as good as La Woman? Or would it have been
more of a soft parade kind of record It would
have been just okay, I think I agree with you
on that. I'm not sure how much they left in
the tank. I don't know, but I was a humongous

(01:49):
Doors fan as a kid. The two bands I love
the most as a kid the Doors and Rush. Well,
Zeppelin was like in there. Zeppelin was the like it
was a religion. Like it was like, well, of course
we understand that, right, but outside of that exactly, it's
like who are your favorite saints? Zeppelin is God? And
I read that whole book No One Here Gets Out Alive.

(02:11):
I think I read half of it on the bus
ride home from the Mill Creek Mall, like I just
couldn't get enough Doors. And then when the Doors movie
came out, and I think I was in high school
when the Doors movie came out, and I mean I
loved it, but as I got older, I saw it
for the hilarious movie that it is. It's the weirdest

(02:32):
thing because Val Kilmer I think deserved an Oscar. He
was so good in the Doors movie and it's eminently watchable.

Speaker 5 (02:40):
It is just great.

Speaker 4 (02:41):
I will put it on anytime and watch it start
to finish. And it's a bad movie. All of those
things are true, Like it's not good. Oliver Stone was
so heavy handed in the writing, you know, with the.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
The Native American.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
Every time he's hammered, he's these Indians, you know, and
then it's just a lot right And the fact that
you know, and I've pointed this out several times on
the show where he's just speaks, he speaks in lyrics,
which nobody did, Like Jim was a regular guy, and
that this is what pissed the band members off. They're like,
he was kind of a regular guy when you hung

(03:15):
out with him. He wasn't this you know, I'm dionysis
dying on the bull of infinity with.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
All else feels you can whip.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
They're like, Jim, eggs or meat loaf?

Speaker 3 (03:29):
What do you were trying to order here? Two sides?

Speaker 2 (03:32):
Sir?

Speaker 6 (03:32):
Yeah, I think of myself as a fiery comment.

Speaker 7 (03:37):
Oh is that what you did in the bathroom?

Speaker 3 (03:40):
Exactly? Dad.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
You had the funny observation on it too, because I
never realized that before.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Yeah, it happens a few times in the movie, but uh,
ray Man Xeric interjects with some totally rational suggestion or
he's like, uh, Jim, maybe you shouldn't drink so much,
and everyone goes, shut up, Ray, idiot, Why butt out?

Speaker 3 (04:06):
I just I don't think he's really drunk. Guys, he's hilarious.
Shut up Ray stupid.

Speaker 7 (04:16):
No one likes you.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
Ray.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
He gets little brother the majority of the movie, like
after the first five minutes.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
Yeah, he got the last laugh though, because for the
rest of his life he did eight million interviews going.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
Jim was a shop man.

Speaker 4 (04:29):
You never know what you were gonna get when you
got in the studio with Jim. One day it could
be dian Ices, the next it could be smoking Hopkins,
little blind Willie McTell. Like, you know, you're like, he
wasn't that complex of a guy. He's just a weirdo
from Florida, right, you know. But also I love the

(04:50):
doors and I you know, I find him to be fascinating.
He was one of the few dudes that did toe
the line between teen idol and like.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Respected rock star.

Speaker 4 (05:04):
Yeah, because a lot of times we we're in the
teen idle side of things you don't get the love from,
like you know, the I don't want to say hipsters,
but like you know, regular folk are like, oh dude,
he's just that's all just teen beat.

Speaker 3 (05:19):
Stuff, you know.

Speaker 6 (05:20):
And he's very specific kind of team though, don't you think,
what do you mean like a runaway kind of Yeah?

Speaker 3 (05:28):
Right, come join the circus. The West is the best, sir,
this you are you're being charged with human trafficking? Do
you understand that this is the bus station? Anyways?

Speaker 4 (05:43):
Oliver Stone thought he had written the perfect biopic, and
in a way I think he did. But like the
way they depict doors concerts is also kind of hilarious,
like the one in Miami, I mean they did. Someone
had a lamb on that one. You know, someone gave
him like a a goat or a lamb or something
like that. But there's like fires and there's always Indians

(06:04):
dancing around.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
Make sure to stop by the merch tent headdress, get
your own lamb and a dream catcher. The doors at a.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
Festival in modern day America would be kind of funny.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
They have that store at the airport is the spirit
of the Yeah, never understand that. I every time I
walk past it. I'm like, is that cool? I don't know, seems.

Speaker 4 (06:32):
Kind of yeah, like cultural, Yeah, depends on who you ask.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
Yeah, you know, but imagining them their humble beginnings as
the doors merch venders.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
The spirit of the West.

Speaker 7 (06:47):
Yeah, that's where started.

Speaker 5 (06:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:50):
On the you know today's show, by the way, not
for nothing, huge Meryll Hodge is going to be joining us,
Dang Mark Madden double m at eighty today and the
reason that Mark's going to be early today, and we
thank Mark for accommodating us. Jean's stairtor is gonna be
live in studio with us this morning. You're not gonna
want to miss that.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
And he wanted to come in. This is what I love.
Jean's like, hey, Red, I can come in if you
need me to. And I'm like, dude, come in and
hang with us.

Speaker 4 (07:18):
And then PFT, Commoner is gonna call while Jean's Star
Tour is here. So it's a packed host today, Abby.

Speaker 7 (07:23):
I love that, And we're gonna get you started with
some news.

Speaker 6 (07:26):
This hour brought to you by your neighborhood, Ford Store,
cloudy with most of us just seeing rain this morning.
This was actually supposed to be the day of the
week where we were supposed to all get snow and
it was like a ninety five percent chance, and it
sounds like we actually kind of all got lucky. So
it's gonna be a high of thirty eight today, and
if you're seeing anything likely, it's just rain. As a
Pittsburgh councilman, Anthony Cogil chairs city Council's Public Safety Committee

(07:50):
and serves on the Sports and Exhibition Authorities Board, But
even those credentials could not score him an invitation to
a closed door town hall Monday with NFL face about
the twenty twenty six NFL Draft coming to Pittsburgh in April.
You would think one of those elements might get me
in the door, Cogill equipped, but that wasn't the case.
Cog Hill wasn't invited, and neither was the media, despite

(08:11):
the city's playing host to what planners say might be
the largest gathering in Pittsburgh's history, with hundreds of thousands
of fans, maybe even one million, expected to swarm downtown
and the North Shore over three days.

Speaker 3 (08:22):
So this is a town hall that.

Speaker 7 (08:25):
No one was allowed to go to.

Speaker 3 (08:27):
They forgot the town park. You get the hall, right, Yeah,
they were so close. Not the town part. Uh how
about the balls on the NFL.

Speaker 4 (08:37):
Yeah, well they're like, uh, we'll tell you what we're
doing when we're ready.

Speaker 3 (08:41):
Yeah, not can we do it.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
I'd like to see some notes from the closed door
town hall meeting.

Speaker 6 (08:48):
Yeah, there was no specifics about this town hall. Who
was invited, how many people, how they were selected?

Speaker 3 (08:56):
Oh yeah nothing.

Speaker 4 (08:58):
It's probably like Goodell handingcot humiliation rituals to people. And
that's why cogoll couldn't go. This is like Art Rooney
wearing boxer shorts getting spanked.

Speaker 8 (09:08):
Go away, close the door, Coghill.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
I don't think that's what it was.

Speaker 7 (09:23):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (09:23):
I mean, at the minimum, if like visit Pittsburgh would
have been at this or just somebody, somebody like, you know,
just one or two would have been really nice. I'm
still super excited about the draft. I imagine that we
will be down there.

Speaker 4 (09:36):
Oh no, look, just do what you want to us.
NFL have your way with Pittsburgh. We don't care. Just
do it to us, to do the draft, to us,
do draft to me, do draft, draft all over us.
We're fine, look at me when you draft. Look here,

(09:59):
go ahead and just do whatever you want to, don't
worry about what we have to say about it. Now,
you might like benefit from somebody from the city being
there to be like, look, I know you want to
set that whole big interactive thing up, uh, you know,
under that bridge.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
But also here's why it's not a great idea.

Speaker 6 (10:19):
We've talked about this before with the people from the
pit coming in, like you gotta have a yenser on
your board, yes, just to tell you how things actually go,
how that's actually pronounced.

Speaker 4 (10:29):
A ambassador we were talking about for all things like this.
Nominate dad Dad would be a good one.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Hey, listen, guys, if you're if anybody's down by the river,
if you fall in, you're all fed up, you're probably
gonna end up in Emsworth.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
Not gonna go good.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
I'm just letting you know, get someone to point out
the obvious dangers.

Speaker 4 (10:54):
If your current's really running that day, try to hold
on some garbage. Just try to hold on some garbage
and float down the river to a safe space. If
you get poked bin needle on the way, save prayer,
I mean, bring somebody in from the city.

Speaker 7 (11:10):
Somebody all right too.

Speaker 6 (11:12):
Metallica fans received lifetime bands from an Australian stadium after
they climbed a speaker tower during the Heavy Metals Bands
show in Perth, Australia.

Speaker 7 (11:22):
Shows are getting insane.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
Yeah, what is going on down there?

Speaker 7 (11:25):
I mean they're having a good time.

Speaker 4 (11:27):
I saw our friend by the way, Katie Moran Pittsburgher
who's the tour manager of Garbage. She posted a picture
of herself at the at Akuala Preserve Ah yesterday as so,
I guess Garbage is still there.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
Metallica is there right now.

Speaker 4 (11:44):
Fans are pissing off artists climbing sound towers.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
It was Metallica in Sydney or are they Melbourne?

Speaker 2 (11:52):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (11:52):
Per Perth is like, isn't that the that's like the
rural part of Australia.

Speaker 7 (12:00):
I wouldn't know, but I believe you.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
I think it is.

Speaker 7 (12:02):
Well, you were at Australia for the Olympics.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
Let me tell you something.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
You think our trip to Dumblin was whirlwind in an
app of Ireland.

Speaker 7 (12:12):
It takes most of the trip to get to Australia,
doesn't it.

Speaker 3 (12:14):
And then we were there for three days?

Speaker 2 (12:16):
Oh come on, so you were a two to three
ratio of travel to yes ground time.

Speaker 4 (12:22):
We did and this is like when I first got
the this was nine months into me working here, and
like the second month, we went to Aruba for nine
days and did the show from a holiday and I'm like,
what the And then we went to Australia.

Speaker 3 (12:35):
Coca Cola paid.

Speaker 4 (12:36):
For it, and it was I think thirty hours travel
there and like thirty three on the way back.

Speaker 3 (12:45):
And then you had.

Speaker 4 (12:45):
Three days and they gave you all kinds of Olympic
ticket you got to go to events. We went to
the opening ceremonies of the Sydney Australia Olympics, which was
one of the most beautiful ever. But you couldn't get
out very far. We couldn't leave Sydney, like we had
to stay there. But we flew to Melbourne to connect
on the way home, and somebody was explaining Australia to
me from Australia and they're like, yeah, this is.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
Where it gets a little bit more rurally, you know.
And then that's not how they sound.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
And then Perth is like, I'm pretty sure, like the desert,
like you know, eight hundred different deadly snakes, like you know,
like has its own ecosystem kind of place. It's like
one of the most unique places on the planet. Wow,
so Metallica is like, let's play there, let's play.

Speaker 6 (13:29):
Well, they play everywhere, didn't they play in Antarctica a
few years ago. It's a little bit of a stunt.
I think I'm saying that is a rhetorical question.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
I was gonna say that I can see them they did.

Speaker 7 (13:39):
Yeah, they definitely did.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
They played Antarctica.

Speaker 7 (13:42):
Yeah, they've done it. They've kind of done it all
they have to do it before Dave Mustain does it,
and then that way they feel like.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
Shot Bucks got it.

Speaker 6 (13:53):
But yeah, these two folks got lifetime bands. I don't
know how any concert venue enacts that. We were kind
of talking. I think there was something a long time ago.
We're like, well, at this point with AI and facial recognition,
maybe that's how you do it. Or those people can't
purchase concert tickets anymore. They both pleaded guilty to trespassing charges,
and the judge added that the men stunt was an

(14:15):
incredibly stupid thing to do and a good way to
ruin your night out.

Speaker 4 (14:18):
So it is one of the most isolated like cities
in the world, but it is also like it has
a little metropolitan cultural art Hub. So it's not like,
you know, just like a wild West town or anything
like that, but it's like so far away from everything.

Speaker 6 (14:36):
I just can't like picture Australia in my mind's eye
like it's one of those obviously it's the place I've
never been. I just can't like picture it in anything
other than like a desert in a way, like you know,
like the Australian outback. Then the cartoon version that my
brain has imprinted it.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
I think that that's it.

Speaker 4 (14:58):
I think you've got it right point specifically, Well, no,
I just think all of the I think Perth is
a city with all of the stuff I was describing
between it, you know.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
But I will say this that do you remember how
when we were in Dublin.

Speaker 4 (15:10):
Every night we went out, we met Dubliner's and we
hung out and we hung out with him for like
three hours. That was Australia, but but nine hours, like
they drink their faces off. They were so much fun.
Like I made friends for life there, you know, guys.
But the weird thing was one dude and I remember
his name was his last name was Kren And because
we were laughing because Jimmy had the last same nat

(15:31):
name as him. His name was Greg Krann and he's
he's like got our emails and this was the year too,
the year two thousand and like emailing video clips like the.

Speaker 7 (15:45):
Like Ebom's World kind of stuff.

Speaker 4 (15:47):
Yeah, like the the technology just like you know, started
to exist that could condense all these big files. And
so he just started ending porn, like a lot of porn.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
And then I was like a couple of weeks, yes,
how the mates might like this?

Speaker 4 (16:10):
And then it turned to German scat porn and I
was like, how do you block somebody from emailing you things?

Speaker 3 (16:20):
Because I was just working.

Speaker 4 (16:21):
Its coming to my work email and I'm like, I
don't want any of this stuff.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
I was in it at first. It was hilarious. It's
like Jesus, look at this guy. Said, he's a real sicko.

Speaker 7 (16:29):
Huh.

Speaker 3 (16:30):
And then after you get done of him, you're the sicko.

Speaker 7 (16:32):
Yeah, if you don't block it. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
But is this more shy as and porn? Oh yeah,
you're seeing one. You see them all and favorite exactly.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
How do I say? How do I save it?

Speaker 7 (16:46):
Email? All right, we'll wrap with this.

Speaker 6 (16:50):
Oxford University Press announced rage Bait as it's twenty twenty
five Word of the Year.

Speaker 5 (16:57):
I've done that.

Speaker 6 (16:58):
Oh now different, you'll go blind. The Prestigious Publisher defines
rage bait as online content deliberty, deliberately rather designed to
elicit anger or outrage by being frustrating, provocative, or offensive,
typically posted in order to increase traffic or to engage
in a particular web page or social media content. So

(17:21):
the I don't need to tell you how we got
to rage bait. You understand the etymology of those words. Yeah,
But interestingly, the first use of rage bait online had
nothing to do with trolling social media. In a two
thousand and two post on usenet, the term was introduced
in the context of automobile traffic to designate a particular

(17:42):
type of driver reaction to being flashed at by another
driver requesting to pass them. That was called rage bait.
That was the first time it was actually used. I
guess we're like kind of used in the lexicon.

Speaker 3 (17:54):
Yeah, well road rage, I guess.

Speaker 6 (17:55):
Yeah, yeah, that's the first time. But now we use
it for social media. So now it is the word
of the year.

Speaker 4 (18:00):
Well, there are business plans that are centered around that. Yeah, that, like,
here is our mission statement draw people into our social
media posts and position them in a way that it
will anger most people, because that's how you get people
to respond healthy.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
You're in a healthy society.

Speaker 4 (18:21):
I say it all the time, living in the healthiest
of times.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
Enjoy.

Speaker 6 (18:26):
The other words, by the way that we're in the
running were biohack and aura farming.

Speaker 4 (18:34):
Oh my god, what is aura farming? I mean, I
guess I can deduce.

Speaker 6 (18:39):
It's like I hear my kids say this sometimes and
I don't quite get it.

Speaker 7 (18:44):
I'm gonna look it up quickly.

Speaker 3 (18:45):
Here, I would imagine that. I mean, it's just like, uh.

Speaker 6 (18:50):
Aura farming is a slang term intentionally cultivating an image
of effortless cool, charisma, or specific aesthetic.

Speaker 4 (18:58):
Yeah, it's like lying about who you are. Yeah right Instagram.
Instagram is a big oura or a farm.

Speaker 7 (19:07):
Okay, I get it.

Speaker 9 (19:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (19:09):
I can't remember what context that she uses it.

Speaker 7 (19:12):
She's like the I was.

Speaker 6 (19:15):
At dinner last night and we were having this conversation
because somebody else at the dinner table had a ten
year old, and I was like, I have a nine
year old. That's like turning into a ten year old slowly.
But she's still in like the Hello Kitty World, but
she's up against the Sephora girls.

Speaker 7 (19:30):
So I'm watching the change.

Speaker 3 (19:31):
Oh that's such a weird Like once.

Speaker 6 (19:33):
In a while there's a weird thing where she says
Aura points or Aura farming or.

Speaker 7 (19:39):
Six seven, and I just like go, like that's happening,
you know.

Speaker 6 (19:42):
So I'm watching like these things and trying to like
follow the currency, but they they do like you know,
it makes me feel like I'm losing her, Yeah, a
little bit at a time, and I try to follow
the thread and say as if I deeply know what

(20:03):
she's talking about already, like you know where I'm like, uh,
like if she says something like you know, Maddie's like
totally oraforming right now, and I'm like, yeah, man, she's
gotta act like he's been there before, right, And I'm.

Speaker 5 (20:16):
Like, oh my god.

Speaker 4 (20:16):
I say, she knows, I don't know exactly well, she knows.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
She knows you're you're a total fraud.

Speaker 6 (20:26):
She does, and I am so I never I'm trying
cloudy with most of us seeing just rain this morning
instead of snow.

Speaker 7 (20:32):
It is a high of thirty eight.

Speaker 3 (20:33):
Mom, now you're Aura Farming.

Speaker 5 (20:35):
I am.

Speaker 7 (20:36):
I'm trying too hard.

Speaker 3 (20:38):
She learned it from watching you.

Speaker 4 (20:39):
Michael be In in just a little bit with your
sports coach Tomlin speaking with the media yesterday, he says
he's still on the hot seat. He says he's always
on the hot seat. She's been on the hot seat
for nineteen years.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
It doesn't even bother him, doesn't. He likes it at
this point.

Speaker 4 (20:54):
He's not a farming, No, not at all, persecuted head coach.

Speaker 6 (20:59):
If he was orf arming, the barn on the farm
would be painted red.

Speaker 4 (21:03):
That is true. He would the barn on that farm,
on the Aura farm exactly. Mike will join us, as
I said, Mark Madden, Merrill, Hodge, Jean's Terator, Liven Studio,
PFT commenter, and more.

Anthony Minton right up there with Charlie Pooth.

Speaker 3 (22:26):
Charlie Pooth and Anthony Amen poofs that broke a two
to two tie.

Speaker 11 (22:30):
And then the Ducks Chris Crider was penalized at nineteen
forty two of the third period, So there's an offensive
zone face off for the Penguins with eighteen seconds left
in regulation, but they were unable to seal the deal.
Anaheim gets the game tying goal with zero point one

(22:51):
tenth of the second left. It was a centering pass
that got knocked into the net by Eric Carlson.

Speaker 3 (22:59):
I don't think I've ever I've seen that happen point one.

Speaker 11 (23:01):
They had the video review it to make sure the
puck got over the line before time expired.

Speaker 3 (23:06):
It did.

Speaker 11 (23:08):
They went to overtime, nobody scored, and then they went
to a shootout, and of course the Penguins lost that
because they just don't win shootouts. That's five straight shootout
losses this season, nine of their last nine, and fourteen
of their last fifteen. If you're scoring at all, Ducks four,
Penns three, Pittsburgh settles for a point.

Speaker 4 (23:27):
I can't wait to poke Madden in the ribs about
this one later.

Speaker 11 (23:30):
One tenth to the second left. And the sad part
is it was a fantastic hockey game, and they played
pretty well. They didn't dominate, but they were probably, you know,
the slightly better team. Anaheim's a good team. Penn's out
shot and probably out chanced them, played responsible, played hard,
did all the stuff they've been doing for the most part.

Speaker 3 (23:49):
But they just forgot to finish it.

Speaker 4 (23:52):
Don't you just get rid of like subout she loves
in the shootout portion.

Speaker 3 (23:57):
I don't think you can do that.

Speaker 11 (23:58):
It's not that you're not allowed, no, I just don't
think it's for his reasonable No, because the other guy
comes in after watching the game for sixty minutes and
now he's supposed to make saves.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
I mean you don't get a warm up period. Well,
the other guy can't do anything. I mean, well, I
mean you can only score too. You're allowed to score goals.
That's a good point.

Speaker 11 (24:16):
And they don't do that either, So I mean it's
a team thing. What I can't figure out is when
Prouder got that penalty, Dan Mues had Eric Carlson and
Crystal Tang on the ice is as defenseman for the
last eighteen seconds. They don't play together, and I know
they're both better, they're more responsible this. They're still not
shut down defenseman. But your defensive guys now.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
Two guys that do the same thing.

Speaker 11 (24:39):
Yeah, it doesn't matter that you've got a power play
with eighteen seconds left. You don't need another goal. Put
your defensive guys out there. And the guy went around
the Tang and then Carlson batted it into his own net. Brutal,
kind of an unfortunate development, brutal. Fourteen to seven and
seven are the Penguins start thirty five points. That's still

(25:02):
good for fourth in the Metro and first in the
wild card standings. They have Montreal coming to town Thursday,
then a busy weekend San Jose on Saturday and Utah
on Sunday.

Speaker 3 (25:15):
Mike Tomlin meeting the media.

Speaker 11 (25:17):
Yesterday and giving what could be a significant injury update.
Calvin Anderson tackle is out again because of his knee.
Anders Pete phil In Tackle, as well as Malie Harrison
and Darnell Washington are still in the concussion protocol. Kyle
Dugger has a chance to come back, he's dealing with
a hand injury. But the big news, Derek Harmon is

(25:40):
a maybe. Harmon is going to be limited at the
outset of practice tomorrow, according to Tomlin, and then they'll
let his participation and the quality thereof determine whether or
not he's available. Tomlins said he's quote excited about having
an additional day to potentially get Harmon ready.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
Well, bertally need him.

Speaker 11 (26:01):
Have you seen the splits on run defense when Harmon plays,
and when he doesn't play, Remember how we were saying,
yeah after the Buffalo, could one guy make that much
of the difference he can. When Derek Harmon plays nine
games worth, the Steelers average ninety six yards against on
the ground per game.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
Which isn't bad. It's pretty good. Yeah, if you're under
a hundred, you're doing well.

Speaker 11 (26:24):
When he doesn't play four games, one hundred and ninety
one point twenty five rushing yards per game.

Speaker 3 (26:29):
Allows ninety five yards kids absurd.

Speaker 11 (26:33):
I mean, it's just and it's not like an insignificant
sample size, and you could say, well, they played Buffalo
is a real great running team when he wasn't in,
But so Indianapolis and Chicago were real good running teams
when he was in. I mean, there's something that he
makes a difference. Apparently a huge, profound game team.

Speaker 3 (26:53):
Yeah, clearly.

Speaker 11 (26:55):
So hopefully he gets well and hopefully the Steelers are
able to attack Miami on Monday night with the same
kind of spreed decord that they did in Baltimore. Yeah,
they did what they had to do on offense and
defense to get out of Dodge with a w against
the Ravens. But you know, they also made sure that

(27:16):
their intangibles were what they needed to be.

Speaker 9 (27:19):
Largely though, I just I liked everyone's smile in the
face of adversity mentality. The environment was a tough and
competitive one. Certainly the Ravens are a worthy dance partner,
and we're able to get the job done.

Speaker 11 (27:32):
I mean, that's you gotta block and tackle and you
gotta have the right schematics.

Speaker 3 (27:36):
But we've seen this team.

Speaker 11 (27:38):
We noticed that for the first time in Minnesota, in
Dublin against Minnesota. You know, they played that game to
win it for Dan Rooney, and you know, the energy
and the vibe it was overflowing. And we've seen it
a couple of times this year. And then we've seen
games such as Green Bay where they just kind of
lay down at various points and a guy like Cam
Hayward emerges saying, we didn't have enough fight, right, Like

(27:59):
they got have that first. But they're not good enough
not to be as good as they can possibly be, right,
and they're they're as good as they can possibly be
when they're playing with energy and emotion. So that's uh,
you know, maybe the Ravens thing jump started that element
of it.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
I hope.

Speaker 4 (28:15):
So because to drop This game illustrates the point that
we all make with this team. That drives us crazy
is the up and down nature of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (28:23):
Yeah, although these guys Miami's they're they're they're upright now,
and yes they're trending up. They're six and seven, but
the last four games they're not six and seven.

Speaker 3 (28:34):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 11 (28:34):
It's it's going to take pretty much what the Steelers
have to win this game. If they think they can
show up and you know, half asset and get it
get away with it, it's it's.

Speaker 4 (28:45):
Not gonna win a full asset. Yeah you got to,
You got a full ass Abby's got your news.

Speaker 3 (28:50):
Top of the hour. What are you talking about?

Speaker 6 (28:51):
We have speculated, but we're finally getting clarity on the
Pam Anderson Liam Neeson relationship from Pam Anderson.

Speaker 4 (28:58):
Meryl Hodge, Mark maddenan stereotaur Live in studio this morning
here with PFT comment or calling in during that hour
in the nine o'clock hour, we'll rate our algorithms when
we come back.

V Randy Bauman and the DV Morning Show. Ted Whistle's
hanging out in studio with us along with Abbie Prisner
and Mike Pursuda.

Speaker 3 (29:53):
This morning, Jacob Bret to your producer.

Speaker 4 (29:55):
Every week, we like to raid our respective algorithms just
to find out what do.

Speaker 3 (29:59):
You look because we're all looking at a different world. Now, Well,
I don't know what's in your algorithm. You don't know
what's in mine.

Speaker 4 (30:05):
Now, this has more profound effects on society when you're
talking about news, but we kind of make it more
about like, look at this hilarious thing that's in my
algorithm that might not have been in yours, and we
call it rating the algorithm we're writing.

Speaker 3 (30:32):
All right, Yeah, so all right, we're putting it all together.

Speaker 1 (30:34):
Mike.

Speaker 3 (30:35):
We'll start with you. What was in your algorithm this week?
You know, believe it or not.

Speaker 11 (30:38):
Misery from Cleveland, And I got to tell you, maybe
it's because they've had so much practice, but nobody expresses
their torture better than Cleveland fans.

Speaker 3 (30:53):
We have a trash.

Speaker 5 (30:56):
Season tickets in that.

Speaker 3 (30:58):
Maybe we could go for let's use the Wildcats and
we don't make it there. Any team is better? Who
Boma Tennessee Because.

Speaker 5 (31:07):
We're trying to lose, maybe.

Speaker 3 (31:09):
We'll win something. We need a quarterback, so we're drafting too.

Speaker 2 (31:18):
And I remember when we weren't driving and driving down
the field throwing so fast I thought.

Speaker 3 (31:24):
I was drunk. Had to win right there before us.

Speaker 5 (31:28):
Oh we needed to win was shown us.

Speaker 2 (31:31):
So why did we go for two while we should
have went further?

Speaker 5 (31:37):
Tie?

Speaker 3 (31:38):
Now we lost the game?

Speaker 2 (31:40):
Man, we should have won, should have won.

Speaker 4 (31:45):
I mean it, it is really the factory of sadness
is really breaking out.

Speaker 3 (31:50):
But I love that song and I love that adaptation
of it.

Speaker 4 (31:53):
Yeah, I mean it really does convey the level of sadness.

Speaker 11 (31:59):
Because we're else guarant Jersey and he's got his Brown's
winner cap on and he's just doing the paved face things,
singing and play.

Speaker 4 (32:06):
That's what football does to people, really does. Like for
those who aren't fans, you just don't know what it's
like to be a fan of But did that.

Speaker 11 (32:12):
Guys start watching in October where you've been there, I
don't know what That's how it is. Yeah, that's I
feel like that's how pirate fans are.

Speaker 4 (32:19):
Pirate fans are like past the point of writing songs
in their sadness.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
There's have turned to like pitchforks, torches, screaming at Bob
nutting in the concoret. You didn't really offer swarm or anything. Yeah,
all right, let's do yours here. What do you have
in your algorithms?

Speaker 7 (32:35):
All right?

Speaker 2 (32:36):
Well, the holidays are fast approaching, and as such I've
been clicking like on a lot of Pogue's related content
because Fairytale of New York is a great.

Speaker 3 (32:45):
Song song but maybe my favorite holiday song.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
Yeah, it's amazing, and uh, you know, with that song
and with the Poges comes a lot of tin whistle
comments of course, or tin whistle content.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
So of course I was this.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
The guy playing the dire straight solo insults of swing
on the.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
Recorder, He plays the whole guitar solo a lot, Yeah
on a recorder. You get it? Shit, this is just
so swing.

Speaker 5 (33:18):
What happened?

Speaker 3 (33:19):
Did we post the wrong thing? Did we post the
wrong thing here?

Speaker 5 (33:24):
Jacob?

Speaker 3 (33:24):
It feels like we posted the wrong thing there.

Speaker 4 (33:25):
Why don't you try to find the right thing while
we go to the next one? Abby, What do you
have in yours?

Speaker 6 (33:32):
So we are always inundated with AI, and one of
these creators that I am seeing NonStop likes to try
to put AI in situations to see how it will react.
And so he'll do a variety of things. I've seen
him talk to AI and tell him AI that is
choking to see how AI will react. Or he'll say

(33:54):
you to AI, I'm in quicksand right now, what do
I do? Or he'll say I'm tied to train tracks and.

Speaker 7 (33:59):
I'm about to be run over. For AI's reaction is
not great.

Speaker 6 (34:03):
Okay, you would not want to call it in an
emergency situation. This one he tries an embarrassing situation to
see how AI will react.

Speaker 2 (34:10):
Okay, I just accidentally farted in front of my boss
and I don't know if you heard it or not.

Speaker 8 (34:18):
Oh, that's one of those classic little awkward moments for sure.

Speaker 5 (34:22):
Honestly, it happens to the.

Speaker 3 (34:23):
Best of us.

Speaker 5 (34:24):
If you're both happened to you.

Speaker 3 (34:27):
Oh yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 8 (34:28):
I think everyone's had at least one of those moments
where your boss one.

Speaker 5 (34:34):
I mean not literally in front of a boss.

Speaker 8 (34:36):
But I've definitely had my share of embarrassing moments in
very situations. Oh sure, I mean I've definitely had those
moments where I said something awkward in a meeting and
then realize it came out totally wrong.

Speaker 5 (34:50):
Or what meetings are you going to?

Speaker 8 (34:55):
Oh well, I'm not exactly popping into meetings myself.

Speaker 3 (34:59):
You are.

Speaker 5 (35:01):
Fair note.

Speaker 8 (35:02):
I think I was just speaking generally, But yeah, I
get it, it could sound like that. Honestly, the main thing
is that little a moment happened all of us. So
if you had the slip in front of your boss,
you're definitely not alone and having a little whoops of moment.

Speaker 3 (35:13):
Okay, I don't think he's gonna let me back in
the office.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
Skynet is going to kill that guy.

Speaker 4 (35:25):
But I'll tell you what, I've never been big on AI,
but if I could just sit there and make fun
of it for an hour. That might be how I
entertained myself once we get to full blade runner mode
here in a few years. All right, were you able
to fix Tad's now? All right, well let me do this. No,
he's got something though, oh did Okay? So this is
Sultan's of swinging on the recorder. Jacob's playing it.

Speaker 5 (35:48):
Go ahead, carry.

Speaker 4 (36:10):
Off answers around. That's absolutely hilario. All right, pretty much down,

(36:32):
would you? Thanks, buddy? I mean the amount of hours
it must take to learn how to play Sultan's just
swinging on the recorder.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
You're you're given a recorder in third grade and they
teach you how to play Hot Cross Buns. They teach
you how to play three Blind Mice spoiler, it's the
same song. But no one tells you that you could
tear Ass on one and play Mark Knopfler.

Speaker 3 (36:56):
You know, you're never You're not told that.

Speaker 4 (36:58):
Tear ass guy really tears.

Speaker 3 (37:01):
I don't know if you've seen Tyler on the recorder?

Speaker 11 (37:03):
You know that reminds me. Have you seen the chick
that does rock on the bagpipes?

Speaker 3 (37:08):
Yes? And it's actually pretty good. Yeah, oh yeah.

Speaker 7 (37:12):
Some people think the journey is done at hot cross buns.

Speaker 3 (37:15):
But that guy he had a lot more to prove,
all right.

Speaker 4 (37:18):
Last one for you, This was from my algorithm this week,
which and I thought this was hilarious. It's from one
of my favorite accounts, which is VHS Oddities, and it's
like all of these old eighties like TV shows and
commercials that they kind of repost. And this was an
eighties public service campaign to alert kids to stranger danger.

(37:41):
And it shows the first there's two guys voices you'll
hear here trying to solicit kids. And the first one
is your typical creepy looking guy who pulls up in
a car and he's got like a scullet, you know.
But the second guy whose voice you'll hear and it
kind of ends this very short clip. Uh, he looks
like he's like, uh, I mean, like a some moe

(38:04):
in offensive lineman for usc all right, So just have
those two pictures in your brain.

Speaker 7 (38:10):
You're sure a cute kid. You know, I'm a professional photographer.

Speaker 3 (38:16):
Don't you come on hop in the car. I'll take
your picture.

Speaker 6 (38:19):
If someone wants to take your picture, saying no and
tell your.

Speaker 8 (38:22):
Parents should tell anybody about our little secret, I'll kill
your dog.

Speaker 4 (38:30):
Should never be asked specialist, I will, My god, that necessary.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
The message is conveyed, I will kill your dog.

Speaker 7 (38:45):
Gets it?

Speaker 3 (38:45):
My god? I think like that's a little heavy hand.
It is all I'm saying. Like you can threaten the
kid or make him feel scared. Would that be I
will kill your dog? The kid?

Speaker 4 (38:57):
The guy who's doing the acting must be like, uh,
can I talk to the director real quick?

Speaker 3 (39:03):
They showed you what in school today?

Speaker 7 (39:06):
All Right, we're gonna do a bunch of takes. I
want you to just rip, come up with something new
each time.

Speaker 3 (39:13):
We're not gonna do anything scarier than kill your dog.
All right, got that, We're good.

Speaker 6 (39:17):
Print it, We're good.

Speaker 5 (39:20):
Yeah, weird the radio.

Speaker 3 (39:24):
Mike's got your sports at the bottom of the hour.

Speaker 4 (39:26):
More from Mike Tomlin in his press conference yesterday, in
which he was asked if he still felt like he
was on the hot seat after the win in Baltimore,
and he claimed he's always on the hot seat. For
nineteen years, he's been on the hot seat, which has
got to give you ham rights.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
I think he's pretty much not been there ever. Yeah, yeah,
I know, I agree with you. Abby. You'll have your
news coming.

Speaker 6 (39:47):
Up next, we're gonna get some clarity on the Pam
Anderson Liam Neeson relationship.

Speaker 7 (39:51):
From Pam Anderson.

Speaker 10 (39:53):
It's time for the Steelers Daily Report on DVE, brought
to you by your neighborhood Ford Store at.

Speaker 3 (39:58):
Steeler's Pro Shop.

Speaker 10 (40:00):
Get it direct from the team at shop dot Steelers
dot com. Here's Tom Opperman.

Speaker 12 (40:04):
Mike Tomlin addressed the media yesterday for his weekly press conference.
Falling and Steeers went over the Ravens and provided some
updates on the injury front. Keanu Bent and James Pierre,
Ben Skroonic, and Wya Black all were banged up in
the game in Baltimore Sunday, and Mike Tomlins said all
four could participate this week against Miami. Dk Metcalf, who
had a stomach issue after the game, will be limited
to start the week, but is expected to play. Kyle Dugger,
who missed the game in Baltimore with a hand injury,

(40:26):
was characterized with the same optimism that he could be back.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
Up for Monday night.

Speaker 12 (40:29):
Andrews Pete, Darnell Washington, and Malie Harrison are all currently
in the concussion protocol and their statuses are up in
the air. The most important piece of injury news, however,
was regarding Derek Harmon, who will begin practicing in a
limited capacity this week after missing the steelers previous two games.
Harmon coming back would be huge for the Steelers defense,
who has struggled to stop the run mightily in the
games without the rookie de tackle. In the four games

(40:50):
the team has been without Harmon, they surrender one hundred
and ninety one point twenty five yards rushing juxtaposed with
the ninety six rushing yards per game they allow. With
him out there, you can see how valuable his present.
With a team coming off back to back weeks allowing
two hundred yards rushing to their opponent, they now stare
down another stiff test in the Miami Dolphin rushing offense,
which rushed for over two hundred yards last week and

(41:10):
has averaged one hundred and ninety two point twenty five
yards rushing over the team's current four game winning streak.

Speaker 3 (41:15):
Potentially getting Harmon back.

Speaker 12 (41:17):
This week could go a long way and slowing down
that potent Miami rushing attack.
