Speaker 1 (00:00):
I heard radio station guaranteed human.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
I've seen this happen with other couples before. I know
I had a girlfriend that at once one. I don't
remember if it was Christmas exactly, but she kind of
knew the relationship was over when her boyfriend at the
time got her hangers.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Like clothes hangers, nice one, Cedar. I don't think so.
I think he was just like, this is.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Somebody who's given hangers. A second, to be clear, don't
smirch a hanger. You're saying that hangers would not be
a good gift. Okay, let me just yes, Yeah, hangers
is a little impersonal.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Yeah, it's like I just noticed we needed hangers, and
I thought that was dutiful.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
She was like, yeah, dry.
Speaker 5 (00:56):
Bone, Brandy Bellman and the DV morning Show, all right,
well we.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Know what not to get outy, it's not gonna work.
Merry Christmas, everybody. Eight days away from Christmas?
Speaker 3 (01:11):
I am. I am not ready. That snuck up. It's
not up.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
When you're a kid, eight days from Christmas seems like
an eternity.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I gotta wait eight days.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
And right now it's like Jesus, oh my god, eight days.
Oh am, I gonna do this.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Who can I gift card? That's where I'm at right, Yeah,
in the shopping well. I think people are gonna get
a lot of beef logs for me this year. It's
gonna be a lot of beef log A lot of
beeflog not a euphemism.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
He no, I'm talking hickory farms, the summer sausages, the
beef log. There was nothing grander as a child to
me than going to the Mill Creek Mall where I
grew up and with my dad, who knew everybody, so
he'd be like, here's twenty dollars, go by your siblings something.
I would run to the record store and buy them
all pins from bands, like here's a led Zeppelin pin,
(02:04):
Here's an Aerosmith pin, And every one of my siblings
I would buy them like a pin for their jean jacket.
You know, Okay, I'm done buying for them, and now
I get to roam the mall during Christmas. And there
was nothing quite like it because you would run. First
of all, you had a hard time getting past the
Orange Julius without that whift just aspirin. It smells like
(02:29):
baby aspirin, and you'd want to go over and get
one of those. But but you knew you had to
wait because you had to see how much you could
get at the hickory farms first, and once that supply
ran out, you were screwed. And there was always a
guy there who was just hired for the holidays holding
a glue plate that had you know, a heating, heated
(02:50):
plate there, and it had like the hot mustard on it,
and it was like all hot and everything, and they
chunks of sausage with a toothpick. It was like, how
many toothpicks would end up in your pocket by the
time you left there? How many times could you do
the oh what's this without him be included too? All right, kid,
you've eaten half the sausage, but that was you know,
(03:12):
the goal, get there and eat as much free sausage
as you can, and then you know you probably go
home with one of them.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Would you turn your hat around backwards? Get out of here?
It must have excuse me, but it like the Christmas
music would be going. So that's what I always remember.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
When we were kids, we did Christmas visits to all
of our aunts and uncles and my dad's and my parents' friends.
When we were much younger, and it would be like
this night we went in exchange presence with all, you know,
with these people, and then we'd always get gifts from them,
which was nice when we were younger.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
It was usually like a sweater or something, nothing big.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
But the allure was the cheese and meatrey because we
knew we could go and pick app And when six
kids run into your house, I mean what, it's just
a bad deal for everybody that let us visit, you know,
because we'd run in and just eat everything. But every
one of those places had that Hickory Farms beef stick
the summer. I think it's summer sausage. It's like you
know what I'm talking about. It had like a rind
(04:10):
around it. Sometimes you'd eat the rind. Who knew?
Speaker 3 (04:13):
I ate?
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Do we eat it? Just better be safe, Let's eat it.
It's roughige. It'll help clear out the beef stick. You
have to eat that if you want to bestick eat
the packaging. And to this day, if I see it,
I'm gonna sit down hot mustard that crush a few
beers and eat way too much of it. That's the
(04:33):
food I am the most looking forward to for Christmas
is that stuff, which is all nitrates and probably not
a real animal.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
I still could survive on a charcootery board in that way, girl,
Dinner for me could be meat, cheese and crackers.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
But that's what it was.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
It was like ritz crackers, you know, nothing fancy, maybe
a sociable if someone was really getting high falutin, but
it was the early charcut He didn't call it sharkooterie.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
It was just meats and cheeses.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
And it would be like chunks of ham, squares of ham,
delicious Swiss cheese.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Cheddar that was as exotic as it got.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
Beefstick, ham, Swiss cheese cheddar, and then you would just
toothpick them all, eat as many crackers as you could.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
That was dinner.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
The finger foods are great because you can sort of
stay mobile and you can eat them without making like
a slob of yourself. If you go for like a
real item, especially at you know, my wife's family does
a huge Christmas Eve party, you get like a real
stuff pepper or whatever, something you have to use a
knife and for on a flimsy cardboard or plate plate,
(05:40):
you run the risk of drunkenly like piercing it and
exploding it upwards everywhere.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yeah, there is a Christmas Eve party that I have
gone to for many many years, but I always go
there last, and it is like dear friends of mine,
who are you know, they're kind of like relatives to me.
But I always get there late and everything's kind it
picked over, but there's usually still enough of the meat
and cheese part of the tree, right, you know, like
(06:05):
there may be if you meat balls or rigs or
whatever they had on the stove, but you can do
the drive by on the buffet where the the quacamole's
kind of going bad at that point. Yeah, the veggie
tray is mostly like there's a few celery sticks left
and that's about it. But the carelessness that you can
attack that food at that point in the evening is
(06:26):
that's just the fun part of the night, where you're
just sticking your hand in a tray of cheese cubes
and going and throwing half of the light beer that
you pull out of the fridge to wash it all down,
going in and getting another one. God, I just love
the whole pageantry of all of that. It really does
say the holidays. One of their uncles that they only
(06:48):
talk to once a year. Is usually sitting in the
corner and nobody's talking to him and they're like hey Andy,
and he's like, how you doing.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Oh, a merry Christmas. It's like then he just goes
back to his house for a year. I brought the
meat and I saw what you did.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
You're welcome.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
Yeah, he's basically the meat and uh cheese cock chair
is what.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
You like that? I just wanted to watch you eat it. Yeah,
they're they're dry, perior. Once you go ahead, get in
there again. Yeah, have some honey mustard. It's good, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (07:30):
I'm sorry, yeah, An He's like Jimmy Stewart, Yeah, get
in there again.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
I got another one of the car.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
Anyways, happy holidays, you only got eight days.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
And again food. I can't stress us enough. Last minute gifts.
Send food. Nobody gets mad. That's it.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Since we're talking holidays. Actually, let's stick with that. With
news this hour brought to you by Wind Donations. Some
consumers are abandoning this idea of expensive Christmas gifts for
micro gifting, which I think I like this idea. So
choosing multiple smaller presents instead of a single costly item.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
So instead of the.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Big splashy like, Wow, happy Honda Days.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
I'm getting you like a bunch of little things. I
think I like this. New research shows the twenty two
percent plan.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
To avoid biding buying any one pricey singular gift this year.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
What do you think?
Speaker 4 (08:38):
I'm I like that because I think that variety. I'm
I'm always in the camp of more is better. Yeah,
And if they're smaller gifts, that's fine. One big one
you miss, it's over.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
If you miss, there's no coming back for you and
for the gift giver or the gift receiver. Rather, it's
like hedging your bet mm hmm. Also, I mean I'm
not saying.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
This only because there's a lot of people I didn't
buy for yet, but I am get it.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
And maybe this is my age too.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
I am getting into this mindset that like, spending time
with people is also part of the holiday, Like that
is kind of the important part.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Like maybe just like all of us be in the gather.
That's nice. That's a mom. You are a full mom mode? Now?
Can I get away with that?
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Though?
Speaker 4 (09:31):
All I want from your kids? My mom does that
every year with the text message to all of us,
just to remind her all I want. This holiday is
time with my kids, and they're all like, yeah, we're
not coming to town this year, Mom, but we're going to
FaceTime the hell out of you going to do that?
I mean, I'll see her, But she says that every
year and you have to get her a gift. Well yeah, okay,
(09:52):
she's not being serious.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
I've never tested it, and I never would. She's eighty three,
and it would be like, you know, every holiday now
is like it's not like I will get her nexte
you never know, you know what I mean. It's like
you really got to try to make all of these
count at this point. Although she seems healthier than every
one of her kids, he's busier than every one of us.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
You think one of your siblings will be maybe be
the first through the wall. I'm like, you know, Mom
said she didn't want anything, so I didn't.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
I think that happened for many years, ok I think, like,
you know, twenty thirty years ago, when things were a
little tighter, Well, you said you didn't want nothing, ma, Well,
well I brought a bottle of wine over.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Why don't we enjoy that.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
That's the difference between my sister and I a thousand
percent is my mom always says that, she said.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
I don't want anything, don't spend your money. Yeah, that
makes that actually upsets me.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
And I go like, she's out of her mind, and
I will get her something. I've got her clothes. I
will go out of i will go out of my way.
I'm like, this is a trick and I can't do that.
My sister's like, I haven't bought her anything. Twenty years
of what you're talking about. That woman says she doesn't
want anything, and I don't care.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
And I bet your mom is one dredercent fine with that.
We are treated as equals even though we are not.
We are not there. There's I have no extra equity.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
I'm My favorite was always well, why don't we do
the somebody buy one big gift from all of us
and then we'll all sign it right like back in
the day.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
And I was.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
Always like, that never works because whoever like rights the cards,
she knows that the person who organized it and did
every they're the quarterback.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
See it's always clear, very clear. Well, now though I
do like again not to keep laboring the point. I'll
send her like a box of wine and be like,
here's your wine for the holidays, and she psyched for
that because then she doesn't have to run. You know,
if you're saving her from running errands, that's like a
good one, because why am I gonna get an eighty
three year old like, you know, here's a hoodie, you
(11:50):
know what I mean? Like Lululemon, like got you some
yoga pants. There's not a lot, you know, other than
getting her like you know, new maja on tiles. I
don't know what it would, what would get her excited.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
You just have to make people's lives easier. That's it. Yeah,
all right.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
HBO Max has released the first trailer for the upcoming
second season of the Pit. Of Course, the hit medical
drama stars Noah Wiley.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
But it's set here in Pittsburgh, and that's what we
care about the most. I did love me?
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Uh did you see that Scott Lazy posted? That gets
some Clark's love.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
So the The opening of the first episode of season
two features the Clark's Better Off without You yea and
a beautiful aerial shot of the I Think the Warhol
Bridge and Noah Wiley, an eer surgeon, passing an ambulance
(12:48):
on the bridge with his motorcycle, on his motorcycle, not
wearing a helmet.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
It's ridiculous. It angers me. You should never pass an
emergency vehicle like that. I'm here to tell you.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
Yeah, yes, even if you're like, hey boys, I'm one
of you.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Yeah, which I don't think the medics are like, hey,
that's the doctor from you know, he's not getting them
a Christmas gift, right, he's just rudely passing them on. Dangerous,
dangerous to do. Don't put a helmet. You would know
who he was. You could see his face if he
wore one of those cool guy helmets. Yeah, you'd still know.
Speaker 4 (13:29):
Yeah, he could put like doctor I can't remember what
his name, Robin, like you know what I mean, like.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
On his chest or something you wear scrubs if people
had to know you were the big shot.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Or just show him at his house putting on the
helmet and then cut to that shot so that we
know that it's him, right, Yeah, something like that, because,
as was pointed out by numerous people on those posts
on social media, there is no er doctor who would
not wear a helmet.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
You question them, you'd be like wait a second, you're
like you're you're in like see it you're in traction.
You're like, wait, you're the guy that doesn't wear the helmet. Yeah,
I don't know if I could take it, I could
take your care seriously.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
I mean, if you don't want to wear a helmet,
you know, there's arguments for it and whatever, you know,
the cost to you know, rescuing people in those situations.
It's the law, you don't have to wear a helmet.
But it just seems implausible that a person who has
cared for many people who have wrecked without helmets would
be recklessly passing ambulances without a helmet.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
That is also I believe the scene in which they
got in trouble with the city. Remember we talked about
that they didn't have a permit to film that scene
in particular.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
And it was on that was.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Yes, they were going to film it so early in
the morning that they kind of figure, They're like, it's
a drone shot, and like, who's gonna say, it's like
before really traffic.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Yeah, and so they just went for it.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
And because there was an ambulance that they were kind
of like trying to time for when it was going
because it was like they were like, he's going to
pass the ambulance. So like they made this decision on
multiple levels before they decided, you know, like the er
doctor without the helmet's going to pass the ambulance, Like
that went through several tests before they decided to go
(15:27):
for it.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Anyway, But the ambulance was part of it. Okay. It
wasn't like they didn't just pass a random ambulance. No,
it was on purpose. Okay, extra Dome.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
But they got in trouble with the city because they
didn't have a permit to film it.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Well, I'll tell you what, we could earn half of
that Clark's album if they would have showed him waiting
at those traffic lights at Alleganty West, because those take forever.
You just sit there and you're like, why am I
even waiting for? There's no traffic coming around here at all?
Nova Place is sitting there, there's nobody there, four traffic
lights to go fifty yards, and you're like, I can
(16:00):
see East Ohio Street.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Why I'm just turning. I don't care, I'm going through.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
Ah, there's a penny on the loose Mercury like Clark
song number five, the guy's still sitting there.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
That Yeah, it's gonna jump in now. This is a
fun take on Springsteen's The River Vincent. Well still not
even over to Cedarr.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
I don't know if you saw this footage the door
Dash worker who was caught on a doorbell cam spraying
a mystery substance I did see on the delivery order.
She claimed that she was aiming at a spider when
she sprayed the food.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Her name was Courtney Stevenson.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
She was seen on footage delivering Arby's to a doorstep
of an Indiana home. She took the confirmation picture and
then you see her spraying an aerosol substance onto the bag.
What I bless you, bless you, bless you. She says
(17:08):
that she was trying to scare away a spider when
she was tracked down by the cops. But Mandy and
Mark Cardon had complained that after they ate their food,
they vomited and suffered from burning sensations and their throats
and mouths an their peans. She told detectives that she
had been staying with her father in Indiana took the
job at door Dash during her visit. According to Fox News,
(17:30):
but yeah, they noticed as soon as they started eating,
they started kind of choking and gasping and uh, she's uh.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
I keep eating it and I keep getting check how
about you?
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Yeah, horor shock right.
Speaker 4 (17:50):
Violently ill me too, keep going.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
Was the spray? They think it might have been pepper spray. Yeah,
it's the reason I don't think you would. I couldn't
take the bag in Probably that's what I would think.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
I would think there'd be like a fog on the
porch that would make it kind of hard to even
want to eat that food. Now you know my thoughts
on door Dash. This is the price of doing business
if you are venturing into the wild wild West of
food delivery, but with people who have absolutely no training
about food handling at all. It's just any random can go. Yes,
(18:28):
I will deliver food to your mouth and you won't
have to leave raad. This is the risk you take.
Sometimes you get your chicken sandwich gets pepper sprayed. That's
just the price of doing wid potentially involved. Yeah, I
would rather eat the spider, let the spider into the bag.
But I do think it's funny she took the picture
(18:49):
and then you get this picture off. Now I can
do whatever to the food. I received the highest compliment
from a door dash drive. One time I ordered a pizza,
which doing that on door dash is like prohibitively expensive.
It's like, eh, it's Friday night when I have a
couple of drinks sit on my porch. The DoorDash driver
(19:11):
was one block away when they with the pizza. They
canceled the order and just disappeared forever with the pizza.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
No one block away. What happened? They took the pizza.
They just it smelt so good. I guess, so. I
guess they were like, wow, pepperoni and onion. This guy's
an innovator. They're like, this job sucks anyways, and I'm hungry. Yeah,
I wonder what happens at that point. No, they just
refunded I had. You know, you have to fill out
(19:40):
like an online form and be like they they took it.
Just like the door dash detective come to your house.
So when did you order this? Oh?
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Likely story? They like, check your old ordering history. Yeah,
one of your buddies didn't obscond with the pizza.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
Am I to believed that? Uh? You know, it's the.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
Wild wild West when you're doing that. I hate the
idea of it swishing around in there. This is why
anytime that I have an uber and I'm like, if
we stop a few orays, I'll buy you a slice.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
And the driver's like, in do you have to kind
of cut them in on it?
Speaker 4 (20:14):
So I think that they should give you the option
of do you want to share your food with the
DoorDash driver?
Speaker 3 (20:20):
Tip like you can have two cuts? Yes, when you
deliver it, I will give you two slices. Don't cherry
pick them, just take two side by side cuts. Yeah,
no corner slices on a square pocket. You've been in
a gross suber before. You've been in a gross stridesharing thing.
And then you imagine that person with the pizza on
the front seat just sitting there.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
And their dog hair, like you know, just hair, anything
that is in that car floating around landing in your food,
like French fries, open bag. I wonder what the percentage.
I wonder what the percentage is of people who eat
French fries.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Oh pretty, Oh you gotta you gotta kick up a
little extra little something for the effort, a little.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
The fry tacks. I'm sure it's levied consistently.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
We got here rooting through the bag.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
Yeah, you almost have to order like food that is
trifle proof, Like you can't get into it, you know
what I mean, and mess with it.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
Yeah, but you can mess with anything, that's true. Why
are we allowing this now that I think because we're
that lazy and we keep paying for it.
Speaker 4 (21:33):
Like if you look for look at how much you
pay extra for door dash to deliver something versus what
you would get at the restaurant. It is incredible how
much they're cranking those up. The price is same with Instacart.
If you're getting groceries, everything is more expensive than if
you actually just go to the store. And there's times
where I'm still contemplating doing it and I'm like, it
(21:55):
would take me ten minutes to do this, and yet
I'm thinking about spend twenty two dollars to let someone
else do it.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
You know what happened that Instacart with me is like
there was a day that I think I was so
slammed and I'm like, I.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Just got to do a quick instacrt.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I There's just no way I'm getting this done. It's
going to screw up dinner, it's going to kind of
screw up everything I do in instacart order I see
that it gets delivered I'm likes, I'm going to go
out like a little gobblin and go get all my
groceries from the stoop. I pulled everything in and I
start unpacking. It all smells like a cigarette.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Whatever.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
That's fine, that's what I that's what we bargained for.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
I start to put everything away.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
They are not my groceries, not even close to my
grocery stuice. And then I'm trying to go back in
the app and I'm trying to like cont because they.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Can't be that far.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
And I'm just like, turn around, come back with mine
and I'll give you these before I unpack them all.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
And you can't do that, Like they're gone. They are smoke.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Guys are so say gone there, so I can't get
them to come back. And Instacart's like, just keep the
groceries and we will refund you what you wanted.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
I'm like, that helps me with dinner none percent. But okay,
this woman.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Somehow does end up contacting me, or I think maybe
she rang the doorbell and she came back and she
was like, I have your groceries.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
I'm really sorry. I'm like, I unpacked everything that you brought.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
She was like, I have the receipt, can you just
put it all back in the bag.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
It will swap And I'm like, I guess some of
it was produced, so and it has now.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Touched my refrigerator, like and we just kind of like
did this stare at each other.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
I'm like, I guess I'm gonna do that.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
So somebody got groceries that like I touched and we
put them back in the bag.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
But I was like, I guess that's what we're doing,
so like we used to be a society. I don't know,
I don't know why we're doing this.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
I think a fun prank to play if you were
a DoorDash driver would be if they got like a
fountain drink is to just put the straw in it.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
Here you go. Why is I just I just did
that part for you? Tell a little ad. You don't
have to welcome. Yeah, I set you up. I just
set you up. Did you sip it?
Speaker 7 (24:12):
No?
Speaker 3 (24:12):
I know, I just set you up. But that's all
I got it. Yeah, I'm like a concierge.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
You know.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
It's like wiping your seat off before you sit down.
Just straw, Gia, that's all. Just want a minute from
my pocket?
Speaker 5 (24:26):
All right?
Speaker 2 (24:28):

DVE Sports up brought to you by Bridgeville clients.
Speaker 9 (25:11):
Not a lot of updates from Mike Tomlin yesterday, and
I get that because it was about twelve hours after
the Steelers had beaten the Dolphins on Monday night. Tomlin
has no new information slash news, slash update on TJ
Watts status. You can say the same thing for Isaac Say, Malu,
tricep and Nick herbig hamstring.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
It's gonna be one of those wait and see weeks.
Speaker 9 (25:34):
It does appear as if Derek Harmon is going to
be able to play at least Tomin sure made it
sound like that yesterday.
Speaker 4 (25:40):
I don't know which one is more troubling, say Malu
or herbig well, depending on TJ.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Watt's availability there.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
I mean, if you lose two edge guys, I mean
all of a sudden, what used to have a position
that had depth?
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Pretty thin? Yeah, pretty thin.
Speaker 9 (25:57):
I think they need to score as many points as
they possibly can to survive this game.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
So having a garden, the ability to do the jumbo
package and protect. Yeah, because I want to hold on
the ball here, I want to run the ball. I
want to use gain Well, I want to use Jalen
Warren keep.
Speaker 9 (26:13):
Yeah, it's gonna be not one of those fine line
kind of games because you're gonna have to hold the ball,
but you're gonna have to score when you're done holding it,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
And well they did that three times this past weekend.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Yeah, and it works.
Speaker 9 (26:26):
Monday, there were a couple interesting tidbits yesterday from Mike Tomlin.
He talked about going for it on fourth down from
his own twenty nine on the second possession of the game,
and that was basically to possess the ball more than
it was to try to have a high scoring game. Yeah,
Like the goal was they knew they had to stop
the Miami run, had to they or they had no chance.
(26:49):
And they knew they had to do that with offense
as well as with defense and keep it away from them.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
It's weird though, with the Steel City Shove are calling it.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
It has a high success rate, and I never trust it.
Every time I see it, I'm like, oh no, no, sure, okay,
they got it.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (27:08):
I tell you who does trust it, Mike Tomlin, and
he trusts all of his tight ends.
Speaker 8 (27:14):
I think it's been reliable the whole time we've done it.
I'm man, maybe we've only failed once in Chicago. It
just speaks to the versatility that we have in the
tight end room. We've talked a lot about it. We
got a deep and diverse tight end group. Darnell is
a point of attack, run blocker, John who was good
run after you saw that. In a lot of ways,
(27:36):
we threw them a screen, We pissed him a toss.
Muth is his own killer. You saw that last night.
And Connor's a jack of all trades. He's a four
faced special teamer. He does things like that for us,
and so I think that's just more of a reflective
of the deep and diverse group that we have at
that position.
Speaker 9 (27:55):
Technically, it's failed twice because they didn't make a third
down against Miami, so they just went ahead and did
it again on fourth down and made it the one
in Chicago. I think they actually converted and it was
a bad spot and where was replay assist then chiming
in to change the spot?
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Remember that play?
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Which one the one in Chicago?
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Connor Heyward?
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Yeah, oh yeah, that was a first.
Speaker 9 (28:23):
Down, yeah, and they didn't get it. They also false
started on one in Cincinnati, which turned out to be
a big deal because they were going forward on fourth
and one in Bangals territory and then they moved it
to fourth and sixth and they kicked the field goal
instead of potentially scoring a touchdown.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
In the game.
Speaker 9 (28:41):
They lost by two points, so it all adds up,
but they think they got something going there.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Steelers at the Lions on Sunday.
Speaker 9 (28:49):
Penguins interesting night down of PPG Paints Arena last night.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
Tristan Jari and goal.
Speaker 9 (28:55):
For your Edmonton Oilers. Stuart Skinner in goal for your
Pittsburgh Penguins, and each guy was still wearing the mask
from his old team because they had time to get
a new one painted.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Yet since since the trade.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
Was it the moose and when he came from Saskatoon
or whatever, and he still he had to wear his
Uba man.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Yeah, he had to wear the minor league helmet for
a while.
Speaker 9 (29:19):
Sidney Crosby with an assist in the Penguins six to
four loss, and he is now one point behind Mario
Lemieux for first play.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
The guy was there last night.
Speaker 9 (29:30):
In all time Penguins points, Lemieux had one thousand, seven
hundred and twenty three points in nine hundred and fifteen
career games. Crosby's now at one thousand, seven hundred and
twenty two in one thousand and thirty three hundred and
eighty four games.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Also, Lean Drysdle of.
Speaker 9 (29:50):
The Oilers four assists, he became the first German born
player to go over one thousand career points. Nobody reacting
to that, I don't know what you mean mean all
the time, Well, hey, you know.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
That's there aren't a lot of German greats in the NHL.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
A lot of German mediocres start, a lot of Germans.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Not a lot of Germans playing hockey. Penguins have lost
six in a row. Hardest skating, later hosting, you know.
Plus they're usually invading Poland or something. Usually get practice
you madeland one time do they call you just at
be the bridge builder. No, Pens are in trouble.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
They are. They are coming on glued.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
Just in time for Christmas.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
No, they gave us six weeks.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
It was pretty fun.
Speaker 9 (30:46):
Yeah, the Crosby think will be a big deal when
it happens.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
Yeah, I'm sorry it didn't happen with Mario and.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
The hass Well, I mean he can go again.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
He won't, you know, obviously, one and done.
Speaker 10 (31:02):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Back the Montreal playing in Ottawa.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
A bunch of beavers.
Speaker 9 (31:09):
He can go there, or they could sit sid and
then the Penguins play at Montreal.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
He could do it there.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
They appreciate him up there. They love him in Montreal.
Speaker 4 (31:19):
Since he started winning them gold medals. Yeah, before that
though not so much. You know, there's a great sitcom
about Newfoundland that's on Netflix right now. I can't remember.
It's like something The Richest Family or something like that.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
Any race.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
It's like Malcolm in the Middle kind of thing. But
it's all about like growing up in Newfoundland. And the
whole time I'm like, wow, Sidney Krosby grew up here.
And then I'm like, wait, no, he didn't watch like
five episodes, and I'm like, it's crazy that he grew
up this far away and like Nova Scotia, Newfoundland. I
don't know where anything is up there. I don't know
what anything is there. It goes forever, It's all I know.
(31:58):
It goes forever.
Speaker 9 (31:59):
By the way, I uh, before I went home and
crashed very early, I had to cleanse my palette a
little bit.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
So I watched your Gordon Lightfoot documentary.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
It's wait, wait, the Edmund Fitzgerald or the Gordon Lightfoot one.
The Gordon light It's awesome, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
It's very good.
Speaker 9 (32:13):
It's I had no idea that guy's depth. I mean,
I liked about four or five of his tunes, but
I had no idea who he was or how.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
Much they heard the Morning Read because the songs, you're like,
this guy's lame, you know, and but he's not. And
he was a boozer and a partier and a total Canadian,
like he was the party. He was like the life
of the party, of that entire scene, and like Dylan
loved him and.
Speaker 9 (32:35):
I felt this way before I saw it, but this
just reinforced. I think one of the most chilling lyrics
I've ever heard is does anyone know where the Love
of God goes? When the waves turned the minutes to ours?
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Yeah, And he just had that sitting around.
Speaker 4 (32:50):
He's like, I don't know, boys, I gotta go one
sitting here, we could try this, so I guess Sea
Shanty not really done yet. And they're like, well, let's
Jered Cordo and he does the wreck of the Edminfitz chair.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
That's some type on this one. Yeah, what the hell?
Speaker 3 (33:02):
And that's the version they end up using. Wow, it's crazy.
Speaker 4 (33:05):
But the fact that he was like just party central,
you know, because you don't think about him that way.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
And then it was.
Speaker 4 (33:12):
Weird how he evolved, like he turned into like a
crypt keeper looking dude when he got older and like
him an old man with super long hair, and he
got kind of that's not a good look.
Speaker 9 (33:23):
I know, I know, you want to be a rock
guy or or whatever, just you know, give it up.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
Even weirder is the Gordon Lightfoot impersonator guy who can't
sing in any of the original keys.
Speaker 3 (33:34):
But Gordon Lightfoot loved.
Speaker 11 (33:35):
Him, but he loved him. He loved him. He's like,
this guy's awesome. He does all my songs. He's like
his Gallagher too. And then the guy say he can't
even do the original, which makes it sound like a
completely different song. I don't know everything about him. It's
just so Canadian. That one was on Uh it was
it on Prime? I think, Yeah, there's several on there. Yeah,
(33:58):
there's this other rock one, and there's a Dylan one.
Speaker 4 (34:02):
The Gordon Lightfoot one's really good. Highly recommend him. Abby,
you'll have your news coming up at the top of
the hour.
Speaker 2 (34:07):

lies the parents tell to their kids.
Speaker 4 (34:11):

Missy Matthews, ladies and gentlemen, I guess ee, how are you.
Speaker 3 (34:55):
No out there? I have her on air.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
I got to hurt the button because I did. I did,
and sometimes you don't I know, but this time I did.
Missy's there now I believe hi, Missy No, yeah, I
don't know. Jacob says, it's on air on my end
of the line here, okay, So that gives me a second,
Abby to bring up the fact that we're gonna feed

(35:54):
to Rob James of the Clarks, who is putting this on.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
This was a cause that.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
I thought it would be really important this time of year,
and we agree. There was a rehearsal last night and
I know that things were starting to come together for
the show. But this is always an effort again of
all of these local musicians who bring a ton of
heart to just pull it together.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
So again, it's coming up on Friday.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
If you have not grabbed tickets yet, you can at
mister Small's dot com or DV dot com.
Speaker 4 (36:19):
I was at the rehearsal last night. It's going to
be a banger and it's all for a great cause. Also,
Rob James and the Clarks want me to reiterate that
they are they do. They're not about like the controversy
in the uh the pit.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
They don't want you on your motorcycle without a helmet
tossing an ambulance.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
No yet, but they will tell you what is you
not wearing a helmet? Because Scott doesn't wear a helmet
on the on the cover of one of their records,
I think on his solo records. He's riding down the
highway without a helmet.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
Okay, so they're just not gonna tell youssing an ambulance though. Yes,
they're not gonna tell you what to do with your life. Yes,
but also if they if they were your er doctor,
they would wear a helmet. They listening to you. They're
better off without rules.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
Missy Matthews is joining us right now from the Steelers
Audio Network. I think we finally got you on air.
High Missy, Hi, can you hear me? Oh my god,
you delayed a little bit and I thought, Jesus three
times in.
Speaker 10 (37:12):
A row, we can't do that.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
How cold were you on Monday night?
Speaker 10 (37:20):
Okay? So it was not as bad as I thought
it was going to be. But I will preface I
am like the biggest baby. I had on a heated vest,
I had on like mittens, you know, I did like
all the things to stay warm. But I was anticipating
it to be worse. I think probably because the wind
wasn't really a factor that usually, you know, when you're
(37:40):
just getting slammed in the face, makes you want to
just start crying. But that, yeah, it just it was
not that bad, and I was pleasantly surprised by how
many fans were there and say the entire time, because
I at least moved during the game, Like I can't
imagine just sitting there.
Speaker 3 (37:58):
No, No, I know, well, Tad, you were there, Yeah,
I was there. I also was moving the whole time
to get beers and go to the bathroom constantly.
Speaker 10 (38:07):
So important stuff.
Speaker 4 (38:09):
Yes, but the Steelers moved the ball, that's for sure
on Monday night, and it was nice to see, first
of all from a Steeler fan perspective. Think one of
my buddies was saying to me, Las, I just needed
that game. I needed to see that we weren't a
complete mess and that the Baltimore game wasn't a fluke.
And I think that as bad as Miami was, and
(38:30):
let's face it, Tua was not great, that this is
still a jumping off point for the Steelers, that they
can use these two games in a row to re
establish what they've been trying to do for a while
and been inconsistent at, and that's that time of possession
reflected that they were able to have a balanced attack
with the running game coming out in the second half, running.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
The ball five straight times.
Speaker 4 (38:53):
Missy finally they established a ground game, but with Kenneth
gainwell mostly.
Speaker 10 (38:59):
Yeah, I agree. It was like good for the soul
type of win. And it was Monday night. Just yes, yes, yes,
I actually ate some chicken stop at halftime, but it
was just great to see. And I think that, you know,
scoring a touchdown on four straight drive, that's where you
(39:20):
were like, okay, this feels different bookending halftime with scores, uh,
time of possession. Haven't won that all year, running more
plays than the opponent. It just felt like they were
able to play BULLI ball on both sides and do
what they wanted to do. Obviously Aaron Rodgers was masterful
and a lot of things that he did just that
throat in DK metcalf DK just you know, pulling a
(39:42):
Darnell Washington and not let guys take him down. And
I think just looking back to last year, at this point,
things were going stout and not that I wanted to
go through what we went through. I feel like, you know,
mid season at least, it feels like we're erow pointed
up to to steal a coach tomlinism and terms of
the end of this season, so hopefully it continues. It's
(40:03):
not gonna be easy in Detroit. They're facing elimination from
the playoffs, so this is gonna be a good game.
Speaker 4 (40:10):
Dylan Cook really comported himself nicely. If you go that
far down the death chart, it's reasonable to assume that
you're not going to get a first class effort there,
but that wasn't the case.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
I thought he had an outstanding money night.
Speaker 10 (40:23):
Game, absolutely, and you know, they definitely had a lot
of confidence in him. You know, the Olne guys are,
they're a tight knit group. They support each other, and
I think they're young, they're different. You know, seeing Marky Coouncy,
David Castro, alvil in Aweva and then at the game
this weekend, you forget what a group like that is
like until there's some consistency and kind of watching them
(40:45):
grow together. But no offense to Dylan Cook. He was
one of those guys that in my preseason notes, you know,
obviously being a quarterback turned offensive line and that's a
little different on most people's story, but if I have
notes on you, that's because during the pre season a
lot of the starters don't play. But I just think
phenomenal draw by him, even when he didn't have as
(41:07):
much help, and he was going against you know, some
really good defensive guys. So clearly this week another tough
challenge depending on what happens of who's starting if Pete
didn't get that out of concussion protocol. But I just
thought he played phenomenal. And I think, you know, the
the Aaron Rodgers confidence and speaking positively about teammates and
(41:29):
things like that they follow and that kind of rubs
off on guys. And I think that was a perpose
example with Dylan Cook.
Speaker 3 (41:36):
That was as good as Aaron Rodgers gets on Monday night.
Speaker 10 (41:40):
That was fun, like you know, getting them with an
extra guy on the field, just those little air Rodgers things.
Speaker 3 (41:46):
That you hated when you played against.
Speaker 10 (41:48):
Him, but you love when he's your guy.
Speaker 4 (41:50):
Yeah, that was really I mean, that was such a
sharp move by him on that and there's just not
a lot of quarterbacks that are going to do that.
Speaker 9 (41:57):
And then he had to go tell it there's not
a lot that are going to get that ball of
metcalf either.
Speaker 3 (42:02):
Oh and he no, I mean, what a throw?
Speaker 1 (42:05):
Yeah, what a throw? Before all the metcalf.
Speaker 3 (42:09):
Do you think he even saw that it was the
safety coming over?
Speaker 1 (42:11):
He just said, I can get this in there.
Speaker 4 (42:15):
I was a bullet, Yeah, no question, Uh, Aaron Rodgers.
The confidence seems to be spilling over to the offense
a little bit, and that doesn't seem to be coincidental
with the arrival of Feeling and mvs NO.
Speaker 10 (42:29):
And I mean, you know, I feel like he kind of,
you know, was going to bat for MBS. Obviously they
have a history. But even before he signed to the
Steelers practice squad, when he came in for a visit
or workout, he didn't sign, and Aaron said, yeah, you know,
I think it's you know, he wants to be on
the fifty three type deal and then maybe who knows
what didn't work out elsewhere, uh, and then decided a
(42:51):
week later, all right, I'll do the practice squad thing.
And then you know, Aaron kept getting questions about it,
and he did the whole above my pay. Great thing,
but how great to see when it did come to
fruition that they were able to connect somebody that he knows,
and Aaron spoke, you know about just the level of
intensity at practice with him and Adam Feelen and you
(43:12):
can just tell and I'm sure Trip can attest to this,
like Steelin is just overjoyed to be here. Clearly he's not,
you know, catching two touchdowns a game, not in the
prime of his career. But you can just tell this
change of scenery coming here, as hard as it probably is,
you know, just doing it so last minute. His family
is still in Minnesota, that this is this is good
(43:34):
for him, and I feel like it's good for the offense.
Speaker 3 (43:37):
As well, no question about it.
Speaker 4 (43:40):
Steelers and Detroit a four to twenty five game Sunday,
Ford Field in Detroit. At least you won't be cold
on the sidelines for this one, Missye, I.
Speaker 10 (43:48):
Know, I'm pumped. I just our plane. I just saw
West Jeweler textar radio group that the Dolphins didn't leave
Pittsburgh until three am because they were de icing their plane.
Speaker 4 (43:58):
Oh insult to injury. Just sitting there, everyone's staring.
Speaker 5 (44:04):
At you.
Speaker 3 (44:05):
Too. It's like you guys want to play cards. They're like, no, no,
we're good.
Speaker 10 (44:09):
And no we quit.
Speaker 4 (44:10):
Yeah, we're gonna start.
Speaker 3 (44:13):
We're gonna sleep this one off. Missy.
Speaker 4 (44:16):
You'll be alongside Rob King and Max Starks this Sunday
for twenty five on the Steelers Audio network.
Speaker 3 (44:24):
Right here, you're radio home with the Black and Gold TV.
Thank you, Missy, Thanks guys.
Speaker 4 (44:28):
Missy brought you by Boris and Boredis. This morning, Abby's
got your news when we.
Speaker 2 (44:32):
Return Major Pittsburgh Highway with a temporary closure that's happening
in about an hour, or give you the details.
Speaker 3 (44:37):
Double m Mark Madden nine to five. I'm Jamie Bortis.
Speaker 4 (44:41):
What makes our law from great are a lot of
the same things that make the Steelers great.
I heard radio station guaranteed human.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
I've seen this happen with other couples before. I know
I had a girlfriend that at once one. I don't
remember if it was Christmas exactly, but she kind of
knew the relationship was over when her boyfriend at the
time got her hangers.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Like clothes hangers, nice one, Cedar. I don't think so.
I think he was just like, this is.
Speaker 4 (00:29):
Somebody who's given hangers. A second, to be clear, don't
smirch a hanger. You're saying that hangers would not be
a good gift. Okay, let me just yes, Yeah, hangers
is a little impersonal.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Yeah, it's like I just noticed we needed hangers, and
I thought that was dutiful.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
She was like, yeah, dry.
Speaker 5 (00:56):
Bone, Brandy Bellman and the DV morning Show, all right,
well we.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
Know what not to get outy, it's not gonna work.
Merry Christmas, everybody. Eight days away from Christmas?
Speaker 3 (01:11):
I am. I am not ready. That snuck up. It's
not up.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
When you're a kid, eight days from Christmas seems like
an eternity.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I gotta wait eight days.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
And right now it's like Jesus, oh my god, eight days.
Oh am, I gonna do this.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
Who can I gift card? That's where I'm at right, Yeah,
in the shopping well. I think people are gonna get
a lot of beef logs for me this year. It's
gonna be a lot of beef log A lot of
beeflog not a euphemism.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
He no, I'm talking hickory farms, the summer sausages, the
beef log. There was nothing grander as a child to
me than going to the Mill Creek Mall where I
grew up and with my dad, who knew everybody, so
he'd be like, here's twenty dollars, go by your siblings something.
I would run to the record store and buy them
all pins from bands, like here's a led Zeppelin pin,
(02:04):
Here's an Aerosmith pin, And every one of my siblings
I would buy them like a pin for their jean jacket.
You know, Okay, I'm done buying for them, and now
I get to roam the mall during Christmas. And there
was nothing quite like it because you would run. First
of all, you had a hard time getting past the
Orange Julius without that whift just aspirin. It smells like
(02:29):
baby aspirin, and you'd want to go over and get
one of those. But but you knew you had to
wait because you had to see how much you could
get at the hickory farms first, and once that supply
ran out, you were screwed. And there was always a
guy there who was just hired for the holidays holding
a glue plate that had you know, a heating, heated
(02:50):
plate there, and it had like the hot mustard on it,
and it was like all hot and everything, and they
chunks of sausage with a toothpick. It was like, how
many toothpicks would end up in your pocket by the
time you left there? How many times could you do
the oh what's this without him be included too? All right, kid,
you've eaten half the sausage, but that was you know,
(03:12):
the goal, get there and eat as much free sausage
as you can, and then you know you probably go
home with one of them.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Would you turn your hat around backwards? Get out of here?
It must have excuse me, but it like the Christmas
music would be going. So that's what I always remember.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
When we were kids, we did Christmas visits to all
of our aunts and uncles and my dad's and my parents' friends.
When we were much younger, and it would be like
this night we went in exchange presence with all, you know,
with these people, and then we'd always get gifts from them,
which was nice when we were younger.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
It was usually like a sweater or something, nothing big.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
But the allure was the cheese and meatrey because we
knew we could go and pick app And when six
kids run into your house, I mean what, it's just
a bad deal for everybody that let us visit, you know,
because we'd run in and just eat everything. But every
one of those places had that Hickory Farms beef stick
the summer. I think it's summer sausage. It's like you
know what I'm talking about. It had like a rind
(04:10):
around it. Sometimes you'd eat the rind. Who knew?
Speaker 3 (04:13):
I ate?
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Do we eat it? Just better be safe, Let's eat it.
It's roughige. It'll help clear out the beef stick. You
have to eat that if you want to bestick eat
the packaging. And to this day, if I see it,
I'm gonna sit down hot mustard that crush a few
beers and eat way too much of it. That's the
(04:33):
food I am the most looking forward to for Christmas
is that stuff, which is all nitrates and probably not
a real animal.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
I still could survive on a charcootery board in that way, girl,
Dinner for me could be meat, cheese and crackers.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
But that's what it was.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
It was like ritz crackers, you know, nothing fancy, maybe
a sociable if someone was really getting high falutin, but
it was the early charcut He didn't call it sharkooterie.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
It was just meats and cheeses.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
And it would be like chunks of ham, squares of ham,
delicious Swiss cheese.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Cheddar that was as exotic as it got.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
Beefstick, ham, Swiss cheese cheddar, and then you would just
toothpick them all, eat as many crackers as you could.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
That was dinner.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
The finger foods are great because you can sort of
stay mobile and you can eat them without making like
a slob of yourself. If you go for like a
real item, especially at you know, my wife's family does
a huge Christmas Eve party, you get like a real
stuff pepper or whatever, something you have to use a
knife and for on a flimsy cardboard or plate plate,
(05:40):
you run the risk of drunkenly like piercing it and
exploding it upwards everywhere.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yeah, there is a Christmas Eve party that I have
gone to for many many years, but I always go
there last, and it is like dear friends of mine,
who are you know, they're kind of like relatives to me.
But I always get there late and everything's kind it
picked over, but there's usually still enough of the meat
and cheese part of the tree, right, you know, like
(06:05):
there may be if you meat balls or rigs or
whatever they had on the stove, but you can do
the drive by on the buffet where the the quacamole's
kind of going bad at that point. Yeah, the veggie
tray is mostly like there's a few celery sticks left
and that's about it. But the carelessness that you can
attack that food at that point in the evening is
(06:26):
that's just the fun part of the night, where you're
just sticking your hand in a tray of cheese cubes
and going and throwing half of the light beer that
you pull out of the fridge to wash it all down,
going in and getting another one. God, I just love
the whole pageantry of all of that. It really does
say the holidays. One of their uncles that they only
(06:48):
talk to once a year. Is usually sitting in the
corner and nobody's talking to him and they're like hey Andy,
and he's like, how you doing.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Oh, a merry Christmas. It's like then he just goes
back to his house for a year. I brought the
meat and I saw what you did.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
You're welcome.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
Yeah, he's basically the meat and uh cheese cock chair
is what.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
You like that? I just wanted to watch you eat it. Yeah,
they're they're dry, perior. Once you go ahead, get in
there again. Yeah, have some honey mustard. It's good, isn't it.
Speaker 6 (07:30):
I'm sorry, yeah, An He's like Jimmy Stewart, Yeah, get
in there again.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
I got another one of the car.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
Anyways, happy holidays, you only got eight days.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
And again food. I can't stress us enough. Last minute gifts.
Send food. Nobody gets mad. That's it.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Since we're talking holidays. Actually, let's stick with that. With
news this hour brought to you by Wind Donations. Some
consumers are abandoning this idea of expensive Christmas gifts for
micro gifting, which I think I like this idea. So
choosing multiple smaller presents instead of a single costly item.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
So instead of the.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Big splashy like, Wow, happy Honda Days.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
I'm getting you like a bunch of little things. I
think I like this. New research shows the twenty two
percent plan.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
To avoid biding buying any one pricey singular gift this year.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
What do you think?
Speaker 4 (08:38):
I'm I like that because I think that variety. I'm
I'm always in the camp of more is better. Yeah,
And if they're smaller gifts, that's fine. One big one
you miss, it's over.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
If you miss, there's no coming back for you and
for the gift giver or the gift receiver. Rather, it's
like hedging your bet mm hmm. Also, I mean I'm
not saying.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
This only because there's a lot of people I didn't
buy for yet, but I am get it.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
And maybe this is my age too.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
I am getting into this mindset that like, spending time
with people is also part of the holiday, Like that
is kind of the important part.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Like maybe just like all of us be in the gather.
That's nice. That's a mom. You are a full mom mode? Now?
Can I get away with that?
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Though?
Speaker 4 (09:31):
All I want from your kids? My mom does that
every year with the text message to all of us,
just to remind her all I want. This holiday is
time with my kids, and they're all like, yeah, we're
not coming to town this year, Mom, but we're going to
FaceTime the hell out of you going to do that?
I mean, I'll see her, But she says that every
year and you have to get her a gift. Well yeah, okay,
(09:52):
she's not being serious.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
I've never tested it, and I never would. She's eighty three,
and it would be like, you know, every holiday now
is like it's not like I will get her nexte
you never know, you know what I mean. It's like
you really got to try to make all of these
count at this point. Although she seems healthier than every
one of her kids, he's busier than every one of us.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
You think one of your siblings will be maybe be
the first through the wall. I'm like, you know, Mom
said she didn't want anything, so I didn't.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
I think that happened for many years, ok I think, like,
you know, twenty thirty years ago, when things were a
little tighter, Well, you said you didn't want nothing, ma, Well,
well I brought a bottle of wine over.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Why don't we enjoy that.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
That's the difference between my sister and I a thousand
percent is my mom always says that, she said.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
I don't want anything, don't spend your money. Yeah, that
makes that actually upsets me.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
And I go like, she's out of her mind, and
I will get her something. I've got her clothes. I
will go out of i will go out of my way.
I'm like, this is a trick and I can't do that.
My sister's like, I haven't bought her anything. Twenty years
of what you're talking about. That woman says she doesn't
want anything, and I don't care.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
And I bet your mom is one dredercent fine with that.
We are treated as equals even though we are not.
We are not there. There's I have no extra equity.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
I'm My favorite was always well, why don't we do
the somebody buy one big gift from all of us
and then we'll all sign it right like back in
the day.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
And I was.
Speaker 4 (11:20):
Always like, that never works because whoever like rights the cards,
she knows that the person who organized it and did
every they're the quarterback.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
See it's always clear, very clear. Well, now though I
do like again not to keep laboring the point. I'll
send her like a box of wine and be like,
here's your wine for the holidays, and she psyched for
that because then she doesn't have to run. You know,
if you're saving her from running errands, that's like a
good one, because why am I gonna get an eighty
three year old like, you know, here's a hoodie, you
(11:50):
know what I mean? Like Lululemon, like got you some
yoga pants. There's not a lot, you know, other than
getting her like you know, new maja on tiles. I
don't know what it would, what would get her excited.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
You just have to make people's lives easier. That's it. Yeah,
all right.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
HBO Max has released the first trailer for the upcoming
second season of the Pit. Of Course, the hit medical
drama stars Noah Wiley.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
But it's set here in Pittsburgh, and that's what we
care about the most. I did love me?
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Uh did you see that Scott Lazy posted? That gets
some Clark's love.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
So the The opening of the first episode of season
two features the Clark's Better Off without You yea and
a beautiful aerial shot of the I Think the Warhol
Bridge and Noah Wiley, an eer surgeon, passing an ambulance
(12:48):
on the bridge with his motorcycle, on his motorcycle, not
wearing a helmet.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
It's ridiculous. It angers me. You should never pass an
emergency vehicle like that. I'm here to tell you.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
Yeah, yes, even if you're like, hey boys, I'm one
of you.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Yeah, which I don't think the medics are like, hey,
that's the doctor from you know, he's not getting them
a Christmas gift, right, he's just rudely passing them on. Dangerous,
dangerous to do. Don't put a helmet. You would know
who he was. You could see his face if he
wore one of those cool guy helmets. Yeah, you'd still know.
Speaker 4 (13:29):
Yeah, he could put like doctor I can't remember what
his name, Robin, like you know what I mean, like.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
On his chest or something you wear scrubs if people
had to know you were the big shot.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Or just show him at his house putting on the
helmet and then cut to that shot so that we
know that it's him, right, Yeah, something like that, because,
as was pointed out by numerous people on those posts
on social media, there is no er doctor who would
not wear a helmet.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
You question them, you'd be like wait a second, you're
like you're you're in like see it you're in traction.
You're like, wait, you're the guy that doesn't wear the helmet. Yeah,
I don't know if I could take it, I could
take your care seriously.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
I mean, if you don't want to wear a helmet,
you know, there's arguments for it and whatever, you know,
the cost to you know, rescuing people in those situations.
It's the law, you don't have to wear a helmet.
But it just seems implausible that a person who has
cared for many people who have wrecked without helmets would
be recklessly passing ambulances without a helmet.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
That is also I believe the scene in which they
got in trouble with the city. Remember we talked about
that they didn't have a permit to film that scene
in particular.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
And it was on that was.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Yes, they were going to film it so early in
the morning that they kind of figure, They're like, it's
a drone shot, and like, who's gonna say, it's like
before really traffic.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Yeah, and so they just went for it.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
And because there was an ambulance that they were kind
of like trying to time for when it was going
because it was like they were like, he's going to
pass the ambulance. So like they made this decision on
multiple levels before they decided, you know, like the er
doctor without the helmet's going to pass the ambulance, Like
that went through several tests before they decided to go
(15:27):
for it.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
Anyway, But the ambulance was part of it. Okay. It
wasn't like they didn't just pass a random ambulance. No,
it was on purpose. Okay, extra Dome.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
But they got in trouble with the city because they
didn't have a permit to film it.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
Well, I'll tell you what, we could earn half of
that Clark's album if they would have showed him waiting
at those traffic lights at Alleganty West, because those take forever.
You just sit there and you're like, why am I
even waiting for? There's no traffic coming around here at all?
Nova Place is sitting there, there's nobody there, four traffic
lights to go fifty yards, and you're like, I can
(16:00):
see East Ohio Street.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Why I'm just turning. I don't care, I'm going through.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
Ah, there's a penny on the loose Mercury like Clark
song number five, the guy's still sitting there.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
That Yeah, it's gonna jump in now. This is a
fun take on Springsteen's The River Vincent. Well still not
even over to Cedarr.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
I don't know if you saw this footage the door
Dash worker who was caught on a doorbell cam spraying
a mystery substance I did see on the delivery order.
She claimed that she was aiming at a spider when
she sprayed the food.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Her name was Courtney Stevenson.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
She was seen on footage delivering Arby's to a doorstep
of an Indiana home. She took the confirmation picture and
then you see her spraying an aerosol substance onto the bag.
What I bless you, bless you, bless you. She says
(17:08):
that she was trying to scare away a spider when
she was tracked down by the cops. But Mandy and
Mark Cardon had complained that after they ate their food,
they vomited and suffered from burning sensations and their throats
and mouths an their peans. She told detectives that she
had been staying with her father in Indiana took the
job at door Dash during her visit. According to Fox News,
(17:30):
but yeah, they noticed as soon as they started eating,
they started kind of choking and gasping and uh, she's uh.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
I keep eating it and I keep getting check how
about you?
Speaker 3 (17:46):
Yeah, horor shock right.
Speaker 4 (17:50):
Violently ill me too, keep going.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
Was the spray? They think it might have been pepper spray. Yeah,
it's the reason I don't think you would. I couldn't
take the bag in Probably that's what I would think.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
I would think there'd be like a fog on the
porch that would make it kind of hard to even
want to eat that food. Now you know my thoughts
on door Dash. This is the price of doing business
if you are venturing into the wild wild West of
food delivery, but with people who have absolutely no training
about food handling at all. It's just any random can go. Yes,
(18:28):
I will deliver food to your mouth and you won't
have to leave raad. This is the risk you take.
Sometimes you get your chicken sandwich gets pepper sprayed. That's
just the price of doing wid potentially involved. Yeah, I
would rather eat the spider, let the spider into the bag.
But I do think it's funny she took the picture
(18:49):
and then you get this picture off. Now I can
do whatever to the food. I received the highest compliment
from a door dash drive. One time I ordered a pizza,
which doing that on door dash is like prohibitively expensive.
It's like, eh, it's Friday night when I have a
couple of drinks sit on my porch. The DoorDash driver
(19:11):
was one block away when they with the pizza. They
canceled the order and just disappeared forever with the pizza.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
No one block away. What happened? They took the pizza.
They just it smelt so good. I guess, so. I
guess they were like, wow, pepperoni and onion. This guy's
an innovator. They're like, this job sucks anyways, and I'm hungry. Yeah,
I wonder what happens at that point. No, they just
refunded I had. You know, you have to fill out
(19:40):
like an online form and be like they they took it.
Just like the door dash detective come to your house.
So when did you order this? Oh?
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Likely story? They like, check your old ordering history. Yeah,
one of your buddies didn't obscond with the pizza.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
Am I to believed that? Uh? You know, it's the.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
Wild wild West when you're doing that. I hate the
idea of it swishing around in there. This is why
anytime that I have an uber and I'm like, if
we stop a few orays, I'll buy you a slice.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
And the driver's like, in do you have to kind
of cut them in on it?
Speaker 4 (20:14):
So I think that they should give you the option
of do you want to share your food with the
DoorDash driver?
Speaker 3 (20:20):
Tip like you can have two cuts? Yes, when you
deliver it, I will give you two slices. Don't cherry
pick them, just take two side by side cuts. Yeah,
no corner slices on a square pocket. You've been in
a gross suber before. You've been in a gross stridesharing thing.
And then you imagine that person with the pizza on
the front seat just sitting there.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
And their dog hair, like you know, just hair, anything
that is in that car floating around landing in your food,
like French fries, open bag. I wonder what the percentage.
I wonder what the percentage is of people who eat
French fries.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Oh pretty, Oh you gotta you gotta kick up a
little extra little something for the effort, a little.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
The fry tacks. I'm sure it's levied consistently.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
We got here rooting through the bag.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
Yeah, you almost have to order like food that is
trifle proof, Like you can't get into it, you know
what I mean, and mess with it.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
Yeah, but you can mess with anything, that's true. Why
are we allowing this now that I think because we're
that lazy and we keep paying for it.
Speaker 4 (21:33):
Like if you look for look at how much you
pay extra for door dash to deliver something versus what
you would get at the restaurant. It is incredible how
much they're cranking those up. The price is same with Instacart.
If you're getting groceries, everything is more expensive than if
you actually just go to the store. And there's times
where I'm still contemplating doing it and I'm like, it
(21:55):
would take me ten minutes to do this, and yet
I'm thinking about spend twenty two dollars to let someone
else do it.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
You know what happened that Instacart with me is like
there was a day that I think I was so
slammed and I'm like, I.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Just got to do a quick instacrt.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I There's just no way I'm getting this done. It's
going to screw up dinner, it's going to kind of
screw up everything I do in instacart order I see
that it gets delivered I'm likes, I'm going to go
out like a little gobblin and go get all my
groceries from the stoop. I pulled everything in and I
start unpacking. It all smells like a cigarette.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Whatever.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
That's fine, that's what I that's what we bargained for.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
I start to put everything away.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
They are not my groceries, not even close to my
grocery stuice. And then I'm trying to go back in
the app and I'm trying to like cont because they.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Can't be that far.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
And I'm just like, turn around, come back with mine
and I'll give you these before I unpack them all.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
And you can't do that, Like they're gone. They are smoke.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Guys are so say gone there, so I can't get
them to come back. And Instacart's like, just keep the
groceries and we will refund you what you wanted.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
I'm like, that helps me with dinner none percent. But okay,
this woman.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Somehow does end up contacting me, or I think maybe
she rang the doorbell and she came back and she
was like, I have your groceries.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
I'm really sorry. I'm like, I unpacked everything that you brought.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
She was like, I have the receipt, can you just
put it all back in the bag.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
It will swap And I'm like, I guess some of
it was produced, so and it has now.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Touched my refrigerator, like and we just kind of like
did this stare at each other.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
I'm like, I guess I'm gonna do that.
Speaker 2 (23:36):
So somebody got groceries that like I touched and we
put them back in the bag.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
But I was like, I guess that's what we're doing,
so like we used to be a society. I don't know,
I don't know why we're doing this.
Speaker 4 (23:50):
I think a fun prank to play if you were
a DoorDash driver would be if they got like a
fountain drink is to just put the straw in it.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
Here you go. Why is I just I just did
that part for you? Tell a little ad. You don't
have to welcome. Yeah, I set you up. I just
set you up. Did you sip it?
Speaker 7 (24:12):
No?
Speaker 3 (24:12):
I know, I just set you up. But that's all
I got it. Yeah, I'm like a concierge.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
You know.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
It's like wiping your seat off before you sit down.
Just straw, Gia, that's all. Just want a minute from
my pocket?
Speaker 5 (24:26):
All right?

DVE Sports up brought to you by Bridgeville clients.
Speaker 9 (25:11):
Not a lot of updates from Mike Tomlin yesterday, and
I get that because it was about twelve hours after
the Steelers had beaten the Dolphins on Monday night. Tomlin
has no new information slash news, slash update on TJ
Watts status. You can say the same thing for Isaac Say, Malu,
tricep and Nick herbig hamstring.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
It's gonna be one of those wait and see weeks.
Speaker 9 (25:34):
It does appear as if Derek Harmon is going to
be able to play at least Tomin sure made it
sound like that yesterday.
Speaker 4 (25:40):
I don't know which one is more troubling, say Malu
or herbig well, depending on TJ.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Watt's availability there.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
I mean, if you lose two edge guys, I mean
all of a sudden, what used to have a position
that had depth?
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Pretty thin? Yeah, pretty thin.
Speaker 9 (25:57):
I think they need to score as many points as
they possibly can to survive this game.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
So having a garden, the ability to do the jumbo
package and protect. Yeah, because I want to hold on
the ball here, I want to run the ball. I
want to use gain Well, I want to use Jalen
Warren keep.
Speaker 9 (26:13):
Yeah, it's gonna be not one of those fine line
kind of games because you're gonna have to hold the ball,
but you're gonna have to score when you're done holding it,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
And well they did that three times this past weekend.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Yeah, and it works.
Speaker 9 (26:26):
Monday, there were a couple interesting tidbits yesterday from Mike Tomlin.
He talked about going for it on fourth down from
his own twenty nine on the second possession of the game,
and that was basically to possess the ball more than
it was to try to have a high scoring game. Yeah,
Like the goal was they knew they had to stop
the Miami run, had to they or they had no chance.
(26:49):
And they knew they had to do that with offense
as well as with defense and keep it away from them.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
It's weird though, with the Steel City Shove are calling it.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
It has a high success rate, and I never trust it.
Every time I see it, I'm like, oh no, no, sure, okay,
they got it.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (27:08):
I tell you who does trust it, Mike Tomlin, and
he trusts all of his tight ends.
Speaker 8 (27:14):
I think it's been reliable the whole time we've done it.
I'm man, maybe we've only failed once in Chicago. It
just speaks to the versatility that we have in the
tight end room. We've talked a lot about it. We
got a deep and diverse tight end group. Darnell is
a point of attack, run blocker, John who was good
run after you saw that. In a lot of ways,
(27:36):
we threw them a screen, We pissed him a toss.
Muth is his own killer. You saw that last night.
And Connor's a jack of all trades. He's a four
faced special teamer. He does things like that for us,
and so I think that's just more of a reflective
of the deep and diverse group that we have at
that position.
Speaker 9 (27:55):
Technically, it's failed twice because they didn't make a third
down against Miami, so they just went ahead and did
it again on fourth down and made it the one
in Chicago. I think they actually converted and it was
a bad spot and where was replay assist then chiming
in to change the spot?
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Remember that play?
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Which one the one in Chicago?
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Connor Heyward?
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Yeah, oh yeah, that was a first.
Speaker 9 (28:23):
Down, yeah, and they didn't get it. They also false
started on one in Cincinnati, which turned out to be
a big deal because they were going forward on fourth
and one in Bangals territory and then they moved it
to fourth and sixth and they kicked the field goal
instead of potentially scoring a touchdown.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
In the game.
Speaker 9 (28:41):
They lost by two points, so it all adds up,
but they think they got something going there.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Steelers at the Lions on Sunday.
Speaker 9 (28:49):
Penguins interesting night down of PPG Paints Arena last night.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
Tristan Jari and goal.
Speaker 9 (28:55):
For your Edmonton Oilers. Stuart Skinner in goal for your
Pittsburgh Penguins, and each guy was still wearing the mask
from his old team because they had time to get
a new one painted.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Yet since since the trade.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
Was it the moose and when he came from Saskatoon
or whatever, and he still he had to wear his
Uba man.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
Yeah, he had to wear the minor league helmet for
a while.
Speaker 9 (29:19):
Sidney Crosby with an assist in the Penguins six to
four loss, and he is now one point behind Mario
Lemieux for first play.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
The guy was there last night.
Speaker 9 (29:30):
In all time Penguins points, Lemieux had one thousand, seven
hundred and twenty three points in nine hundred and fifteen
career games. Crosby's now at one thousand, seven hundred and
twenty two in one thousand and thirty three hundred and
eighty four games.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Also, Lean Drysdle of.
Speaker 9 (29:50):
The Oilers four assists, he became the first German born
player to go over one thousand career points. Nobody reacting
to that, I don't know what you mean mean all
the time, Well, hey, you know.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
That's there aren't a lot of German greats in the NHL.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
A lot of German mediocres start, a lot of Germans.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
Not a lot of Germans playing hockey. Penguins have lost
six in a row. Hardest skating, later hosting, you know.
Plus they're usually invading Poland or something. Usually get practice
you madeland one time do they call you just at
be the bridge builder. No, Pens are in trouble.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
They are. They are coming on glued.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
Just in time for Christmas.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
No, they gave us six weeks.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
It was pretty fun.
Speaker 9 (30:46):
Yeah, the Crosby think will be a big deal when
it happens.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
Yeah, I'm sorry it didn't happen with Mario and.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
The hass Well, I mean he can go again.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
He won't, you know, obviously, one and done.
Speaker 10 (31:02):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Back the Montreal playing in Ottawa.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
A bunch of beavers.
Speaker 9 (31:09):
He can go there, or they could sit sid and
then the Penguins play at Montreal.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
He could do it there.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
They appreciate him up there. They love him in Montreal.
Speaker 4 (31:19):
Since he started winning them gold medals. Yeah, before that
though not so much. You know, there's a great sitcom
about Newfoundland that's on Netflix right now. I can't remember.
It's like something The Richest Family or something like that.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
Any race.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
It's like Malcolm in the Middle kind of thing. But
it's all about like growing up in Newfoundland. And the
whole time I'm like, wow, Sidney Krosby grew up here.
And then I'm like, wait, no, he didn't watch like
five episodes, and I'm like, it's crazy that he grew
up this far away and like Nova Scotia, Newfoundland. I
don't know where anything is up there. I don't know
what anything is there. It goes forever, It's all I know.
(31:58):
It goes forever.
Speaker 9 (31:59):
By the way, I uh, before I went home and
crashed very early, I had to cleanse my palette a
little bit.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
So I watched your Gordon Lightfoot documentary.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
It's wait, wait, the Edmund Fitzgerald or the Gordon Lightfoot one.
The Gordon light It's awesome, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
It's very good.
Speaker 9 (32:13):
It's I had no idea that guy's depth. I mean,
I liked about four or five of his tunes, but
I had no idea who he was or how.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
Much they heard the Morning Read because the songs, you're like,
this guy's lame, you know, and but he's not. And
he was a boozer and a partier and a total Canadian,
like he was the party. He was like the life
of the party, of that entire scene, and like Dylan
loved him and.
Speaker 9 (32:35):
I felt this way before I saw it, but this
just reinforced. I think one of the most chilling lyrics
I've ever heard is does anyone know where the Love
of God goes? When the waves turned the minutes to ours?
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Yeah, And he just had that sitting around.
Speaker 4 (32:50):
He's like, I don't know, boys, I gotta go one
sitting here, we could try this, so I guess Sea
Shanty not really done yet. And they're like, well, let's
Jered Cordo and he does the wreck of the Edminfitz chair.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
That's some type on this one. Yeah, what the hell?
Speaker 3 (33:02):
And that's the version they end up using. Wow, it's crazy.
Speaker 4 (33:05):
But the fact that he was like just party central,
you know, because you don't think about him that way.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
And then it was.
Speaker 4 (33:12):
Weird how he evolved, like he turned into like a
crypt keeper looking dude when he got older and like
him an old man with super long hair, and he
got kind of that's not a good look.
Speaker 9 (33:23):
I know, I know, you want to be a rock
guy or or whatever, just you know, give it up.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
Even weirder is the Gordon Lightfoot impersonator guy who can't
sing in any of the original keys.
Speaker 3 (33:34):
But Gordon Lightfoot loved.
Speaker 11 (33:35):
Him, but he loved him. He loved him. He's like,
this guy's awesome. He does all my songs. He's like
his Gallagher too. And then the guy say he can't
even do the original, which makes it sound like a
completely different song. I don't know everything about him. It's
just so Canadian. That one was on Uh it was
it on Prime? I think, Yeah, there's several on there. Yeah,
(33:58):
there's this other rock one, and there's a Dylan one.
Speaker 4 (34:02):
The Gordon Lightfoot one's really good. Highly recommend him. Abby,
you'll have your news coming up at the top of
the hour.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
Is the season we're going to talk about the white
lies the parents tell to their kids.
Speaker 4 (34:11):
Also, Missy Matthews, Mark Madden still to come here on
the DVE Morning Show.
Speaker 3 (34:17):

Speaker 7 (34:28):
On DV ninety four point five, Tree wsit Christmas.
Speaker 4 (34:44):
It's the DV Morning Show and joining us right now.
Brought to you by Boris and Boris fighting for justice.
Missy Matthews, ladies and gentlemen, I guess ee, how are you.
Speaker 3 (34:55):
No out there? I have her on air.
Speaker 4 (34:57):
I got to hurt the button because I did. I did,
and sometimes you don't I know, but this time I did.
Missy's there now I believe hi, Missy No, yeah, I
don't know. Jacob says, it's on air on my end
of the line here, okay, So that gives me a second,
Abby to bring up the fact that we're gonna feed
the burg this Friday night.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
We are just days away. Join us at mister Small's.
Speaker 2 (35:21):

to mister Smalls dot com or There's also a page
dedicated to it at DVE dot com. And major kudos
(35:54):
to Rob James of the Clarks, who is putting this on.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
This was a cause that.
Speaker 2 (35:59):
I thought it would be really important this time of year,
and we agree. There was a rehearsal last night and
I know that things were starting to come together for
the show. But this is always an effort again of
all of these local musicians who bring a ton of
heart to just pull it together.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
So again, it's coming up on Friday.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
If you have not grabbed tickets yet, you can at
mister Small's dot com or DV dot com.
Speaker 4 (36:19):
I was at the rehearsal last night. It's going to
be a banger and it's all for a great cause. Also,
Rob James and the Clarks want me to reiterate that
they are they do. They're not about like the controversy
in the uh the pit.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
They don't want you on your motorcycle without a helmet
tossing an ambulance.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
No yet, but they will tell you what is you
not wearing a helmet? Because Scott doesn't wear a helmet
on the on the cover of one of their records,
I think on his solo records. He's riding down the
highway without a helmet.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
Okay, so they're just not gonna tell youssing an ambulance though. Yes,
they're not gonna tell you what to do with your life. Yes,
but also if they if they were your er doctor,
they would wear a helmet. They listening to you. They're
better off without rules.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
Missy Matthews is joining us right now from the Steelers
Audio Network. I think we finally got you on air.
High Missy, Hi, can you hear me? Oh my god,
you delayed a little bit and I thought, Jesus three
times in.
Speaker 10 (37:12):
A row, we can't do that.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
How cold were you on Monday night?
Speaker 10 (37:20):
Okay? So it was not as bad as I thought
it was going to be. But I will preface I
am like the biggest baby. I had on a heated vest,
I had on like mittens, you know, I did like
all the things to stay warm. But I was anticipating
it to be worse. I think probably because the wind
wasn't really a factor that usually, you know, when you're
(37:40):
just getting slammed in the face, makes you want to
just start crying. But that, yeah, it just it was
not that bad, and I was pleasantly surprised by how
many fans were there and say the entire time, because
I at least moved during the game, Like I can't
imagine just sitting there.
Speaker 3 (37:58):
No, No, I know, well, Tad, you were there, Yeah,
I was there. I also was moving the whole time
to get beers and go to the bathroom constantly.
Speaker 10 (38:07):
So important stuff.
Speaker 4 (38:09):
Yes, but the Steelers moved the ball, that's for sure
on Monday night, and it was nice to see, first
of all from a Steeler fan perspective. Think one of
my buddies was saying to me, Las, I just needed
that game. I needed to see that we weren't a
complete mess and that the Baltimore game wasn't a fluke.
And I think that as bad as Miami was, and
(38:30):
let's face it, Tua was not great, that this is
still a jumping off point for the Steelers, that they
can use these two games in a row to re
establish what they've been trying to do for a while
and been inconsistent at, and that's that time of possession
reflected that they were able to have a balanced attack
with the running game coming out in the second half, running.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
The ball five straight times.
Speaker 4 (38:53):
Missy finally they established a ground game, but with Kenneth
gainwell mostly.
Speaker 10 (38:59):
Yeah, I agree. It was like good for the soul
type of win. And it was Monday night. Just yes, yes, yes,
I actually ate some chicken stop at halftime, but it
was just great to see. And I think that, you know,
scoring a touchdown on four straight drive, that's where you
(39:20):
were like, okay, this feels different bookending halftime with scores, uh,
time of possession. Haven't won that all year, running more
plays than the opponent. It just felt like they were
able to play BULLI ball on both sides and do
what they wanted to do. Obviously Aaron Rodgers was masterful
and a lot of things that he did just that
throat in DK metcalf DK just you know, pulling a
(39:42):
Darnell Washington and not let guys take him down. And
I think just looking back to last year, at this point,
things were going stout and not that I wanted to
go through what we went through. I feel like, you know,
mid season at least, it feels like we're erow pointed
up to to steal a coach tomlinism and terms of
the end of this season, so hopefully it continues. It's
(40:03):
not gonna be easy in Detroit. They're facing elimination from
the playoffs, so this is gonna be a good game.
Speaker 4 (40:10):
Dylan Cook really comported himself nicely. If you go that
far down the death chart, it's reasonable to assume that
you're not going to get a first class effort there,
but that wasn't the case.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
I thought he had an outstanding money night.
Speaker 10 (40:23):
Game, absolutely, and you know, they definitely had a lot
of confidence in him. You know, the Olne guys are,
they're a tight knit group. They support each other, and
I think they're young, they're different. You know, seeing Marky Coouncy,
David Castro, alvil in Aweva and then at the game
this weekend, you forget what a group like that is
like until there's some consistency and kind of watching them
(40:45):
grow together. But no offense to Dylan Cook. He was
one of those guys that in my preseason notes, you know,
obviously being a quarterback turned offensive line and that's a
little different on most people's story, but if I have
notes on you, that's because during the pre season a
lot of the starters don't play. But I just think
phenomenal draw by him, even when he didn't have as
(41:07):
much help, and he was going against you know, some
really good defensive guys. So clearly this week another tough
challenge depending on what happens of who's starting if Pete
didn't get that out of concussion protocol. But I just
thought he played phenomenal. And I think, you know, the
the Aaron Rodgers confidence and speaking positively about teammates and
(41:29):
things like that they follow and that kind of rubs
off on guys. And I think that was a perpose
example with Dylan Cook.
Speaker 3 (41:36):
That was as good as Aaron Rodgers gets on Monday night.
Speaker 10 (41:40):
That was fun, like you know, getting them with an
extra guy on the field, just those little air Rodgers things.
Speaker 3 (41:46):
That you hated when you played against.
Speaker 10 (41:48):
Him, but you love when he's your guy.
Speaker 4 (41:50):
Yeah, that was really I mean, that was such a
sharp move by him on that and there's just not
a lot of quarterbacks that are going to do that.
Speaker 9 (41:57):
And then he had to go tell it there's not
a lot that are going to get that ball of
metcalf either.
Speaker 3 (42:02):
Oh and he no, I mean, what a throw?
Speaker 1 (42:05):
Yeah, what a throw? Before all the metcalf.
Speaker 3 (42:09):
Do you think he even saw that it was the
safety coming over?
Speaker 1 (42:11):
He just said, I can get this in there.
Speaker 4 (42:15):
I was a bullet, Yeah, no question, Uh, Aaron Rodgers.
The confidence seems to be spilling over to the offense
a little bit, and that doesn't seem to be coincidental
with the arrival of Feeling and mvs NO.
Speaker 10 (42:29):
And I mean, you know, I feel like he kind of,
you know, was going to bat for MBS. Obviously they
have a history. But even before he signed to the
Steelers practice squad, when he came in for a visit
or workout, he didn't sign, and Aaron said, yeah, you know,
I think it's you know, he wants to be on
the fifty three type deal and then maybe who knows
what didn't work out elsewhere, uh, and then decided a
(42:51):
week later, all right, I'll do the practice squad thing.
And then you know, Aaron kept getting questions about it,
and he did the whole above my pay. Great thing,
but how great to see when it did come to
fruition that they were able to connect somebody that he knows,
and Aaron spoke, you know about just the level of
intensity at practice with him and Adam Feelen and you
(43:12):
can just tell and I'm sure Trip can attest to this,
like Steelin is just overjoyed to be here. Clearly he's not,
you know, catching two touchdowns a game, not in the
prime of his career. But you can just tell this
change of scenery coming here, as hard as it probably is,
you know, just doing it so last minute. His family
is still in Minnesota, that this is this is good
(43:34):
for him, and I feel like it's good for the offense.
Speaker 3 (43:37):
As well, no question about it.
Speaker 4 (43:40):
Steelers and Detroit a four to twenty five game Sunday,
Ford Field in Detroit. At least you won't be cold
on the sidelines for this one, Missye, I.
Speaker 10 (43:48):
Know, I'm pumped. I just our plane. I just saw
West Jeweler textar radio group that the Dolphins didn't leave
Pittsburgh until three am because they were de icing their plane.
Speaker 4 (43:58):
Oh insult to injury. Just sitting there, everyone's staring.
Speaker 5 (44:04):
At you.
Speaker 3 (44:05):
Too. It's like you guys want to play cards. They're like, no, no,
we're good.
Speaker 10 (44:09):
And no we quit.
Speaker 4 (44:10):
Yeah, we're gonna start.
Speaker 3 (44:13):
We're gonna sleep this one off. Missy.
Speaker 4 (44:16):
You'll be alongside Rob King and Max Starks this Sunday
for twenty five on the Steelers Audio network.
Speaker 3 (44:24):
