We play Christmas music out here, we have the big dinner,
then everybody decorates the tree, and then once the tree
is don we get pictures of everybody wh's been in
our home for Thanksgiving, and then the dessert round starts,
and then uh, you know, by by the end of dessert,
it just looks like a battlefield because everybody's just picked
the place to lay on, button their pants and sleep.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
And I love that.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
You know, when people are falling asleep in your house,
they feel comfortable. Yeah, properly we properly darted you down.
If you're passing out on the couch, we've properly darted
you down.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
How do you handle like you know, this is the
holiday for over consumption, but you have to kind of
like regiment it.

Boa constrictor.
Speaker 4 (00:53):

Surely Cardell is joining us, Joe joining us this morning?

Speaker 3 (01:11):
I'm uping a bob brother. I'm up in about. The
pulse is right, the heart's beating.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I'm doing all right. That less time I'll tell you last.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Yeah, it was great to see you.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
You needed a little, a little, a little Pittsburgh to
almost kill you and save you at the same time.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Uh, you do look good. I'm glad things are going back.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yeah, man.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
But I we were just talking about Thanksgiving in that
rewind clip there from last week. I ate my final
Thanksgiving dinner last night and I texted Abby and I
was like, I'm like I just had a legit huge
plate of Thanksgiving because that I had it all left right,
(01:57):
and I'm like, I don't want to eat this after
today because Abby had this news story yesterday about how
that you know, it goes bad, and uh, I just
loaded it up.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Man.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
I got done working out and I'm like, I'm having
another Thanksgiving.
Speaker 7 (02:09):
Bad mistake, huge mistake, knocked me right out again.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
I'm on the couch. I'm like, why did I do that?
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (02:16):
It was so delicious though, it was so good, and
I'm like sopping up the last of the gravy with
some freshly toasted stuff in because I always reheat the
stuffing in an oven.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
I never put it in a microwave. That is correct.
You gotta like a little bit of stock, yes, yes,
soften it up.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
You got to bring it back to life, bring it
back to exactly. Yeah, by Shunday. By Sunday it's like
walking through mud. You just can't get your feet out right.
And by Sunday you just no more candy, no more gravy,
no more place. For the love of God, don't bring
anything else in this house.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
I was telling them that I did do something smart
with a lot of the leftover turkey that I had,
the carcass turkey that you like, shave off of the carcass.
I made a turk soup with it that was like this.
It was kind of an Italian suit. It was like
white bean kale and dice tomatoes, and you know, you
do it with the garlic and all that stuff and
fry it up for.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
A while and get all the aroma and all that.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
And it you know, it's still turkey, but you got
an Italian kind of vibe to it, so you're not
getting that like gravy mashed potatoes.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Did you did you put the neck bone in?
Speaker 6 (03:24):
No?
Speaker 4 (03:24):
I didn't go that far.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
No, No, I just I just sliced off a bunch
of meat.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Did you wear a scarf? Did you wear a scarf
a on your head while you were doing No?
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I did a very I know that you're supposed to
like boil the carcass and all of that, but I
didn't get into it like make your own stock. I
didn't do that, because that's how that's when it's really good. Oh,
you have the chicken neck fat or the turkey neck
fat and the soup. Right, Yeah, I didn't go through
any of that.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
I made it. I made a whimpier version of it.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
But hey, for me, it was like I was happy
to just have an alternative use of the turkey because
I I think of turkey down for a while.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
After After a while, you just have to change its
form to competing it.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Right, you're liquefied.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
You did good.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
You just have to change its polarity.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Yes, I was stand near ready to put some some
you know, cumin and paprika on it and do turkey tacos.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
So I think that was the better solution. Yeah, how
many people did you end up having did good.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
We ended up we did. I think we ended up
with twenty, which is good. That's what usually average twenty
twenty to twenty five out here. Well, you got the
family you make. My mom came out. We'll come home
with his girl, and then we take in a few strays.
You know, I put a few saucers of milk out front.
We're taking a few stray.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
Yeah, that's a testament to how many people love Billy Gardell.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
Oh yeah, twenty people.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Twenty people in LA.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
It's like we did you have U two in your
backyard in San Francisco. We used to have like sixty
to eighty people in LA. We get like twenty people
who all bitch did they had to drive.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Into It was like they say, oh, Joe, I got rules,
I've got Most of the folks been coming here and
it's the same faces for thirty years. It's like it's
like that scene in Goodfellas. It's the same card scene
and pouring water on Joey O'Connell's head.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
We're it's all the same crew out here. It's pretty
much the same faces and one or two new ones.
But but you got to be vetted before you get
into my house, like I.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Would have you over, Joe. There's not a lot of
people I have at my house.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Oh thank you. I may be.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
I always have people say I always have people say,
like they'll say dumb stuff like yeah, we'll drop by, Man,
where are you at?
Speaker 3 (05:35):
And I'm like, you know, just don't worry about that.
You don't need to worry about that. You're not coming
to my house. Yeah, right, Well we'll meet at the
coffee shop until I know you for ten years, then
you get to come to the house.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Well, no one really drops by in La though. That's
not even a drop by.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
No one drop nobody's popping in nothings popping.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
By the house. Your friends should equates to where they
live and friend of you.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Well, yeah, and in Los Angeles too, Man, it's so big.
The city's so big, Like if you I live in
the valley. So if you're moving to Santa Monica, that's
the end of our friendship. I'm not coming. I'm never
that's it's for it's what seven miles, it'll take you
two and a half hour to get them. Like, you
might as well be moving to Estonia. You're just going
(06:22):
to a different part of the it's like Europe unless
there's a train they build. I'm not coming to see
if ever a town would have benefited from a train.
It was Los Angeles.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Oh my god, yes, absolutely, we have.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
I think the whole after being in Europe seeing that
rail system, we really missed the boat because they got
the rail system over there for for passengers. Then they
got a rail system for freight. But it is the
easiest way to travel around the country, causes no pollution,
saves energy, and if what's.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Cooler than being on a train.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Anytime I step on a train, I pretend I'm I'm
Hercuro Paro and there's a murder mystery going on.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
I love we should all be riding the train of robots.
Come get us. I'm I'm I'm jumping on a train.
I'm not going to train.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
You'll already.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
I'm gonna buy like a wild Wild West. I'm gonna
buy like a wild Wild West car.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Just travel all over the country that way.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Don't don't, don't, don't, don't don't.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
I still think we can just unplug the robots. I'm
still like, just turn it off.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
Yeah, Joe, do you feel like I feel.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Like it's starting to be a little smoke, you know
what I mean. I feel like I'm not so sure
they're as far.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Advanced as they think they are, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
I'm starting to think there might be a little smoke
behind this. I'm not so sure anymore.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
Well, I've said this on stage up for a couple
of months, like, like Grady said, can't we I'm plug
the computers and then just throw water on them.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
It saves the world there, it is?
Speaker 2 (08:01):
What's zp them? Like a jets.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
We're gonna we're.
Speaker 5 (08:06):
Gonna lose Facebook, Like, oh my god, we're gonna have
to remember everyone's birthdays again.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Like wasn't my my deep prayer every night, Joe is
the Internet gets so ridiculous that we all give up
on it and look up again.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
That my prayer. That's that's one of my pro Please
let it.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
It's got to at some point, it's gonna get to
the point where nobody believes anything on the Internet at all.
And when we reached that, then it'll collapse and we
can get back to the mall. Can we go back
to the mall? I want to see I want I
want to go into Spencer's gifts. I want to go
look for CDs. I want to go see a movie.
I want an orange Julius. Why can't we just please,
(08:47):
for the love of God, hit the rewind hit playing
like what happened to that?
Speaker 5 (08:53):
What happened to that? And not like coach that organized
just ten kids in the park. Someone is gonna get hurt,
someone's gonna cry. Look, and that's where you learn life,
all life's lessons out.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
In the streets.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
The Adventure, we rode bikes in a slag dump. Now
I'm like, text me when you get there, Text me
who's going with you? Text me how long are you
gonna be the text when you go away? Text tex
tex text I need to know everything. I'm not even
sure my father knew I was out of the house. Yeah,
was she here? Here?
Speaker 1 (09:23):
I haven't sit where is he? I was hanging out
in the woods with dudes who ended up in jail
for life.
Speaker 8 (09:32):
But at a young age.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
I knew like, I should probably not hang out with
this guy.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
This guy is scary, and I just keep my huffy
within the you know, a radio.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Yeah, you know, I can just hop on that and
get out of here.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
And things getting weird. Huffy going, we're ten years old.
He's smoking. You know, maybe this isn't the wagon to
hitch my star to. Uh but you know, Bill Joe
Bartneck does have the brilliant idea of of just throwing
water on the robots when they come to attack. Love
(10:07):
this because you'd have to think that the other like
robot army members would have to be like man and
then put down their weapons and go grab the one
that got water on it and then go put it
in rice for a while, like.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
They're performing, Like that's what their robot medics do.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
We need those old we need them like old football
sprink ers.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
That's your put those out for you know that they
would do the football field with once a week.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
That that's the that's the machine gun we need.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
Hey, hey, that was a big time fun in the
seventies in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Billy run through. That was free. That was free washed.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
Oh yeah, that's sprinkler. Like we're not going to the wavepool.
We're gonna run the sprinkler for a while.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Well, nobody was driving us to the wave We must
have lived in the nice part of town.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
My Dad's like, no, we're not, no, we're not going
up there. That's crowded, Oh, dudels.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
I was watching there's this the documentary named Les blank
who it was like his eightieth birthday or shay or something,
And they had a special on some of his old documentaries,
which are great. A lot of them are in Louisiana.
He did a bunch of like in late sixties, early
seventies in like Cajun country, and I mean he's interviewing
the poorest of the poor, you know, in these very
(11:22):
unique areas of the world. And this one woman was
talking about how she grew up and she's like, no,
we had like.
Speaker 9 (11:29):
You know, twenty of us living in this house and
we would eat and talk and then we would sing
songs and then we'd just curl up on the floor
and then you go to sleep and would wake up
and we just talk to one another about life. And
now you can't talk to nobody because a TV and radio.
(11:53):
And she's saying this stuff in like nineteen seventies, right,
and she's like life just got way too fast, you know.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
And she's got like this some cage and drawl.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
And I'm sitting here thinking, like, lady, you have no
idea how crazy And Scott Sains that.
Speaker 5 (12:08):
My grandmother would always say, television was the ruination of
this country.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
You never saw the internet.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Yeah right, yeah, the Internet. The Internet. We went too far.
I if we have to pick, I think.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Hold on a second. Okay, TV, Mike Andy ruined us.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
A little, a little, A little bit of escapism is good.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
But the difference was when you watched a television show
or a movie and you saw a psycho, you turned
that off and.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
You went, man, that was a that's that's a good actor.
R Wow, that was scary.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
You see a psycho on the internet, You're like, that
guy's walking around, that's real. I'm not leaving a house.
I'm getting my garden hose ready for the invasion. That's
what I'm doing.
Speaker 10 (12:58):
Man.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
It just struck me that the idea that people used
to like, they'd sit around and talk and they're you know,
and then music.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Less cause cause I left the house at seventeen. If
that was my life growing up, I think I'd have
been out at nine.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
I'm like, I can't hear this story one more time.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Give me my Huckleberry Finn package and I'm gone. I
can't get me a stick with a bandana on it.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
I'm out.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
But not having like living in a house with a
younger family. Now, I can't imagine how hard it is
to like, and you guys dealt with this with Wilster
and Joe, You you dealt it with to a degree
with your daughter. Is that once the handheld devices and
the machines come in and Abby you're battling it right now?
Is like, how does a family even interact with each
(13:44):
other anymore? Is it just like every other relationship where
everybody is just like you're living next to a person,
not with a person.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
I'll tell you how you walk through the living room
like agin's your father and go.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Put that down?
Speaker 2 (13:57):
No, yeah, put it down?
Speaker 4 (14:00):
Ye right, you gotta hit the dome.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
If you hit the diamond, put.
Speaker 11 (14:05):
Some sang on it.
Speaker 12 (14:06):
I actually, over the break, I took my daughter to
the Children's Museum, which she's nine, and I kind of thought, like,
I wonder if we're past this being like within her
age range, Like is this kind of almost be too
babyish for her?
Speaker 11 (14:22):
Because also she.
Speaker 12 (14:23):
Does have access to YouTube and to a degree she
kind of sees things tangentially on Instagram, and so things
move really quickly, and I almost wonder at times it's
a brain just too broken for tactile.
Speaker 11 (14:38):
We're gonna play with.
Speaker 12 (14:39):
Clay for a little while. And so I but I
took her to the museum and I had a child back.
It's it was kind of wild to me how quickly
they really do snap back in to play and imagination.
Because also what's great about her, and it might be
(15:00):
because she's an only child, is that there were rooms
that I would take her to and I was kind
of thinking like it was going to be just the
two of us, and that you know, I was going
to have to be equally engaged in the play in
every single room. But there would be rooms where she's like,
I'm gonna go jump on that, I'll be back, and
she would just ghost me and she's gone and she's
doing her own things. So like it is taking them
(15:22):
out of that environment. And even actually last night she
said to me, do you think I use a You
think I have a little too much screen time?
Speaker 11 (15:30):
And I said.
Speaker 9 (15:32):
What?
Speaker 11 (15:33):
And she said, I think maybe I get a little
too much.
Speaker 12 (15:35):
She's like Leo was over tonight and he says his
mom only lets him have thirty minutes a day. I
feel like I get longer than that. I'm like, yeah,
but you can't yell.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
At me when I take it away from you.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Well, maybe maybe the kids will grow up much like
the above twenty one generation now that drinks in a
much lower proportion compared to when we went through that age,
Like it's drinking is now by a percentage of the
population at its lowest point since the nineteen thirties right now.
(16:08):
So maybe they'll recognize our own folly of letting them
have access to digital cigarettes basically and go like, yeah,
I don't actually want that.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Well, they think they're finally yeah, they're finally doing that
in schools where they're like put your phone away, like
they're finally catching on. But look at an entire generation,
like Will's generation, half of their brain got melted, and
not by any fault of their own. One, they got
hit with this stuff. Two when the lockdowns came, they
were on a screen for two years, literally two years,
(16:42):
just stuck staring at screens.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
And I think it's had an effect. Man.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
I think social media hit a generation that we I
always say we overcompensated. You know, we raised a generation
of housecats because we were feral.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
So I think social media hit a general.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
It just wasn't built like we I think if social
media would have hit back with us, I don't think
it would have been as big. I like to believe that.
I just don't think it would have been as I
think it would have been. Like I'm going to the concert, Dude,
I don't have any time for that right now. Oh
that guy stay put his lips together. Great, I gotta run,
you know what I mean. I just I think there
would have been a little more gen x on that.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
I agree with you, really.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
I think that the lockdown definitely created a buch bigger
monster because it was really the only game in town.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Yeah, that was the only way they could connect with
each other. And then who knows. You know, you never
know what your kids are doing. You hope for the best,
you know, you hope you're talking sense to him, you
hope they're making good decisions.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
But there's still kids, you know, you know, you never know,
and you don't know.
Speaker 3 (17:46):
I used to always go up to Will's room and
I go like this, I go, did you join a cult?
And he'd go no, I go is the earth round
or flat?
Speaker 2 (17:56):
He'd go round? I go continue, and then.
Speaker 4 (18:01):
Landing happened.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
Yeah, do you think the moon is a spaceship. Do
I need to straighten you up? Okay, good, all.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
Right, Abby, you got something for us here.
Speaker 12 (18:10):
You know, I will say that as much as we
were talking about maybe television being you know, the beginning
of all of our ruin or radio to some degree,
never make it, Molly, those are the things that we.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Say it's especially off. Now that's.
Speaker 11 (18:30):
It's well in that case, then television is terrible.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Until you were talking, Tosh.
Speaker 12 (18:38):
There are a lot of class classic Christmas movies that
are going to be hitting the theater chang Yes this month,
So a couple of the favorites, and then you tell
me if there's something that's missing here.
Speaker 9 (18:48):
Uh.
Speaker 12 (18:49):
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is going to be hosted by
a MC Theaters and Regal Cinemas, So that's going to
be back in theater.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
My brother is going to a screening of Christmas Vacation
with Chevy Chase just doing a Q and eight. He's
not sitting next to my brother. It's like Adam the
and and he's paying to do it. That's like a
thing that's happening quite a bit now, which I like
this trend, you.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Know, what's really cool for our generation is I don't
know if they're doing a nation why, but the ARC
guy's out here. They once a month they show a
classic movie, like they just did The Breakfast Club for
a weekend. Last month, they did Caddy Shack, and they
show these and those movies are filled.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
It's filled.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
You know, you can go to a new movie there's
twelve people in there, but those classics are filled, and
it's just super fun night out. For Father's Day, we
went and saw Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade. So
I love the fact that our group is like, yeah,
just run them old ones for us, We'll go.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Back to the theater. I think I love that whole process.
Speaker 12 (19:48):
This is crazy to me that how the Grinch stole Christmas,
which is this is the Jim Carrey one is celebrating
twenty fifth anniversary.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Yeah, that's when you realize when you turn on the
oldies and you hear Duran, Duran, Wow, I have the
I have slipped the timeline. I'm on a different timeline
and you like them now. I love them, I love
them closet, I love them at the time.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
Would you shut up, dude?
Speaker 2 (20:14):
No, I love the class I know what are you
talking about talking about?
Speaker 1 (20:17):
My sister's always like, well, why couldn't you just say
that you like Duran Duran back then? And I'm like
it just it's because every dude would have just hammered
you for being a homo. And like, back then, homophobia
was so rampant, we were so ignorant, especially at that age,
that was like an argument you did not want to
try to get into at all.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
No, no, like which is.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
In high school.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
I was like, guys, I love the clash, but it's
we're seven dudes and none of us smell good. All
the girls are dancing to Duran Durant, which, by the way,
that album, and then we have something to talk to
them about what do you think?
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Which is all done by Nile Rogers, like the funk
Master producing all of that stuff.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Brilliant, yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Probably the best one of the best bassists in music.
Yeah with Taylor, you know what I mean, and a
brilliant band all. But back then you.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
Too, because yeah, it was too insecure.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
I was a kid, but you have, like, you know,
any band that had makeup on that wasn't kiss.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
You'd be like, I wouldn't listen to those GIRs.
Speaker 5 (21:22):
Hot chicks in the videos though, I was pro Duran Duran,
were you, Well, you're a big enough guy to get
away with blaking whoever you liked back then, No.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Act did like Aran Duran. That's some good songs. I
do too.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
I think they're fantastic. Man. I've seen him twice at
the Bowl since top of my rand.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
Duran exactly. The girls weren't dancing to London's burning.
Speaker 12 (21:46):
They weren't Elf the Polar Express Love Accent Polar Express.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
Yes, that's my double feature for Christmas. Puller Express Polar
Express every Christmas Eve, and my time it showed that
I'm make whoever's ever watching them make the hot chocolate
when they do that scene and I come running out
and bring chocolates everything when everybody, Yeah, I was the
first Imax real experience. And then after that we watched
(22:14):
die Hard, so.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
That that's my double feature for Christmas, Christmas Christmas tell
Hans Gruber goes off to not to tell me Tower Christmas.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
R Christmas movie was always full metal jacket.
Speaker 5 (22:27):
Well that's an interesting one, real, yeah, because we always
have sixty comics that works like sixty Comics and the
punchline staff over and it's id to argument. So, like,
you know, twenty five years ago, I'm just like, We're
just gonna watch Full Metal Jacket and I'm thinking, you know,
happy birthday, baby gesus birthday to you. It's I mean,
(22:48):
I love that movie. Hey joke does this mean? And
Margaret's not coming?
Speaker 13 (22:53):
One of the greatest movie lines ever.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
That movie is so awesome.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Just it's two separate movies and they it works perfectly
as one piece.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Oh it's the best. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Uh, Billy Gardell lie from Los Angeles, California with us
this morning. Mike's coming in. I mean, I know you
were reeling like us from that Steelers game. Dude, dude,
they boot Renegade, they boot Renegade. They were chanting fire.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Mike Tomlin, Well, you know, I don't know. I don't
I don't know at this point what to do. I
I start with hope, I end in despair. And that's
been my season, you know what I.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Mean, Every every week I start with, all right, well
let's let's see, let's just take a look.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
We don't know it could have we stink and.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
It's just brutal. That was a Beatables, Beatable Bills team.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Beatables, yes, and a beatable Bears team I thought the
week before. I mean, I think if they had their
bleep together a little bit more under coach Tomlin, that
those were two teams that you could have coached victory.
But they got out coached in both those games. Ben
Johnson and company in Chicago schooled uh Tomlin and his
I think welterweight staff. And that's part of the problem
(24:09):
of coaching.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
I just, yeah, dude, you got. I think you got.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
If you have that much talent on defense and you
aren't scheming or making adjustments, I think that falls on
coaching and and and without the defense showing up last week,
they may have scored fifty.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
You know what I want.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
I want to may have scored fifty.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
I want to coach where I don't have to hear
the word scheme every day in analyza.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
So sick of satan.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
Did you watch did you watch New Did you watch
New England? Last night?
Speaker 4 (24:40):
A little bit only a little bit of the Pens
and Flyers around.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Just playing football, playing football everybody in there, so you
could tell Vrabel.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Has that team. I wanted him to his personality.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
I don't know where our personality is right, now we
don't look like the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
I don't understand the scheme. Bill. If you keep running
the same running play, can't you just say, hey, I'm
standing there and when someone runs by, you tackle them.
I mean, you don't.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
You don't need nine out in the film study to
realize they're running that play. Hey, let's put somebody over
there that might hit some play.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Hey, this looks familiar exactly.
Speaker 4 (25:16):
TJ.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Watt went on the podium after the game and basically said,
I've never seen the same play run so much to
so much success, and it's like they're running right over him,
like you know, he's getting triple teams and I don't.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
It's it's it's aggravating beyond belief.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
And coach Tomlin's person.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Tomlin Tuesday Today is gonna be a real entertaining half
an hour or twenty eight minutes, whatever that ends up being.
But hold on, let me do a break and we'll
come in. Michael join us here and talk a little
bit about that. And well, you know the fact that
Sidney Crosby still owns the Flyers. Two goals last night
for the captain and they take a five to one
(25:53):
victory out of Philadelphia.
Speaker 4 (25:55):

and Billy Gardella in Los Angeles, California, Gosh and Mike Pursuda.
Speaker 4 (27:03):
Now with your sports on DVE.
Speaker 6 (27:05):
Sports I brought to you by Bridgeville apply its five
to one Penguins over the Flyers last night and shot
a Sidney Crosby and his usual damage in Philadelphia. Two
goals for the Penguins. Captain Joe Bartnck probably knows these
stats by heart, but for the rest of us ninety
(27:26):
two career games played against the Flyers for Crosby, fifty
nine goals and one hundred and thirty seven points.
Speaker 4 (27:34):
Wow against Philly doing the Lord's work.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
The kid. Yeah, anytime you beat Philly, that's nice.
Speaker 6 (27:43):
Brian Rust picking up where Crosby left off. He had
a goal and to assist for three points. He's got
twenty nine points in thirty seven career games against the Flyers.
Not Crosby like, but getting there Eric Carlson to assist.
He moves into sole possession of eighth place among all
time Swedish born players in NHL scoring. He's got eight
(28:06):
hundred and eighty seven career points. Matt Sundean leads that
list with thirteen hundred and forty nine, and last, but
not least, I buried the lead. Penguins gave up two
goals or fewer for the eleventh time this season. They're
eight zho to three. When that happens, you keep it
(28:26):
out of your neck. You win a lot of games.
Speaker 4 (28:28):
Who knew? Who knew?
Speaker 6 (28:31):
I mean, two goals are fewer and eleven of twenty
five games. That's getting in the neighborhood a half.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Better defense in front of Jari, helping him to look
a little more more everything, better, everything, commitment to defense.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
They've played well enough defensively that I think they might
be able to dump Jari on Edmonton.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
You are hoping for that, trade me right off and
now now hang up? No, I you know, and.
Speaker 6 (29:02):
Joe, to your point about the defense, are thinking get
out from under the Graves contract?
Speaker 4 (29:06):
Oh my win win.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
Yeah, he's playing very well. You never know, someone goes down.
He's playing well enough to play a top six, you know,
or five to six on a playoff team.
Speaker 6 (29:19):
Right now, trade jarring him to Edmonton for Paul Coffee.
Oh wait, they did that already. Future consideration. Yeah, Pens
are thirteen to seven and five thirty one points. That's
got him back in the wildcard picture in the Eastern Conference.
Pens and Flyers are the two wildcards in the Eastern
Conference with thirty one points. They're both just three points
(29:39):
behind Metropolitan Division leading Carolina. Pens are next in action
on Thursday night at Tampa and then Saturday. Then they
play Dallas on December of the seventh. So saw a
joke that's cornball, but I love it on Twitter the
other day. The Toronto Maple Leafs are lad in their
(30:02):
division and in the Eastern Conference playoff picture, and it
was the old one of the Maple League seven common
with the Titanic. They're both at the bottom of the Atlantic.
Speaker 4 (30:17):
Any time you could poke fun at the Maple Leafs.
Some in favorite of that. Yeah, well, there's plenty of
opportunity to thirty three fifteen.
Speaker 6 (30:23):
He knew the Patriots over the New York Football Giants
on Monday Night Football Last night, Pats are eleven.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
And comber Mike Conference.
Speaker 4 (30:31):
It's about times somebody did. The Giants are the long eleven.
Speaker 6 (30:37):
Drake May continued his resurgence twenty four or thirty one,
two hundred and eighty two passing yards, two touchdowns, and
no interceptions. Jackson Dart seventeen of twenty four, but he
only had one hundred and thirty nine yards through the air,
one touchdown, no picks, and he got lit up once
on a rundown the sideline.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
To his credit, he didn't whine about it. He said,
that's football. Yeah, I like that, dude.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
He might be one of the those guys who knocks
himself right out of the game though. I mean he's
fresh off of concussion and he's still doing dumb stuff.
Speaker 4 (31:04):
Well, jud's got one of those already. Yeah, who has
knocked himself out of the game.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Yeah, and then did ww raw like a week later.
These guys are just these are not geniuses.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
Pretty.
Speaker 6 (31:20):
Arizona, Michigan, Duke, and Yukon are your top five teams
in the Lakes State Peek College Basketball Top twenty five,
Ducade hosts William and Mary Tonight at seven, Pit hosts
Texas A and M at seven, and Penn State host
Campbell at six.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
First place in the AFC North is on the line
Sunday at one o'clock in Baltimore, when the Steelers face
the Ravens, and if their run defense looks anything like
what we saw on Sunday against the Bills, Derrick Henry
will set a record for in game rushing performance because
they couldn't tackle anybody and they got blown off the
(31:58):
line the whole game and no matter what they did,
they couldn't stop it. So but but here's a great
hope for the Steelers. If there's one guy who will
be stupid enough to not just try to repeat that,
it's John Harbaugh.
Speaker 4 (32:11):
He'll go, you know what.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
They they know the run is coming, so obviously we
cannot choose.
Speaker 4 (32:20):
He's done that before.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
I'm gonna drink the poison exactly, not.
Speaker 3 (32:24):
The poison that you think the poison is inconceivable exactly.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
He turns into Wallace Sean. He's done it before with
the Steelers. He just overthinks it. So my problem with
this matchup is that that's what we're left to.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
Uh ha.
Speaker 6 (32:38):
They have bad coaches too. That well, it's the NFL.
A lot of goofy stuff happened, so they could win.
Speaker 4 (32:44):
Any given Sunday. Steelers Ravens.
Speaker 5 (32:47):
Usually it's great when teams would run on us because
at least they're not passing.
Speaker 4 (32:56):
The running takes longer. I just decided get it over
with him. You know what I mean? Tho our past terrible?
Speaker 2 (33:01):
Really?
Speaker 5 (33:02):
Oh like yeah, okay, but yeah it used to be like,
oh a run was like okay. At least they're not
throwing the right.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
J and Mikey. What's that old John McKay quote? How
do you feel about your team's execution?
Speaker 2 (33:14):
I'm all for it.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
Yeah, quick break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
I know.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
Pittsburgh Reddit Abbey is some suggestions for the people dooing Renegade.
Speaker 12 (33:24):
Yeah, the chats are chatting yesterday because obviously Renegade doesn't
have the same magic anymore.
Speaker 11 (33:29):
They want to replace the song. So some suggestions coming
our way.
Speaker 10 (33:32):
That's next GV Chad Dyson turns your car into a
sonic playground every weekday afternoon.
Speaker 4 (33:38):
He's got a reloaded cut.
Speaker 10 (33:40):
From the DV morning show Sports and a Workforce commercial
free hour at three afternoons with Chad ty Sudden on DV.
Speaker 11 (33:49):
My dad pulled double shifts at the Pittsburgh Mills.
Speaker 4 (33:52):
My mom showed me compassion.
Speaker 11 (33:55):
Dad taught me grit radio home with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
Why don't two point five DV DV morning show. Our
buddy Joe Bartneck hanging out with us this morning. Also
Billy Gardell live in Los Angeles, California. They booed Renegade
on Sunday at Achrocure Stadium, and that's first time I'm
aware of that Renegade has ever been booed.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
For the record, I used to boo Renegade in my
head everywhere? Can we get Black Sabbath? Can we get
for those top the story? He's always good artsy band
from that is the young I would Brian have been Johnson.
(34:40):
I want Metallica, I would I want wid that black Man,
see me Joe crushing somebody?
Speaker 13 (34:50):
Yeah, that actually war Sure when you play something after
you just got stuffed on fourth and two down sixteen
with ten minutes left, at the back end of a
crap performance like that, anything was getting booed.
Speaker 1 (35:08):
Well, I agree that the placement of that was the problem.
It wasn't just that it was Renegade. I've always been
a fan of Renegade because I think it is such
a weird song for Mike Martinski to have heard one
morning going to work, He's listening to DVE. We play
Renegade and in his head he envisions the highlight reel
and yeah, he's like, yeah, dude, this could roll up
(35:31):
the fans, and boy has he been right.
Speaker 4 (35:33):
The problem I have with renegade is that it's.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
Become this right of not right, a passage. It's an
expectation that it will play every game, and I think
it should be circumstantial and special. You don't always get
a renegade. It should be like dark Star at a
Dead Show, Joe, you know what I mean, like, you know,
for fifteen years.
Speaker 7 (35:58):
Yeah, well maybe not that rare, but you know what
I'm saying, like, oh yeah, we got you know that
we got a renegade.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
It should be special, not like I'm going in I
get a renegade because I bought a ticket shot.
Speaker 4 (36:14):
I don't think.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Now they're puting the team and the audacity of the
organization to play that there with the expectation that they
would somehow bail out the team.
Speaker 6 (36:27):
Anyways, our old buddy Bill Crawford used to maintain and
I couldn't agree with them more on this point. All
these teams now are selling the presentation and game day
atmosphere and all that. When you're getting your ass kicked
there should be no more tonight a night we're not
(36:53):
gonna make it.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
And three that's what it is.
Speaker 1 (36:55):
They're damn and an inch probably probably gonna get they
just gave the first is it.
Speaker 6 (37:02):
Time to get excited and the time to realize you
just got your head handed to you?
Speaker 4 (37:07):
Be quiet? Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
I think if we're going to change up music, let's
just do a song that fits what's happening to us.
Well now there, if we're getting buried, you know, then
then play a song like you know, it's a long
way back.
Speaker 4 (37:24):
I won't back down.
Speaker 3 (37:26):
Something something that fits what's going on in the game.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
But they were down the wow yeah right about that.
Speaker 4 (37:35):
They're so called we're getting run over and we have no.
Speaker 12 (37:38):
Hope see YouTube them more like honest approach, billy. I
think the chats that were chatting yesterday were kind of
going more of that uh headspace of talking about where
we actually are. So the most common suggestion was yackety sacks.
Speaker 3 (38:05):
I mean, just watch Tomlin come over and pat Arthur's
head five or.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
Six times.
Speaker 11 (38:15):
That one would you know? I don't think it would
feel good.
Speaker 3 (38:22):
Like the Keystone cops get out and circle the wagon
three times, you get back on it and then it falls.
Speaker 2 (38:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (38:27):
Right, if you were like in a depressed state, uh,
maybe you know again, you blow it on fourth down.
You could go with like everybody hurts from R E M.
That was another suggestion. I don't think everybody would have
to abandon their seats and.
Speaker 11 (38:42):
Just start walking. I guess it tells everybody it's just
time to go.
Speaker 4 (38:49):
I heard this.
Speaker 6 (38:49):
I would start walking toward a bridge.
Speaker 11 (38:53):
We got a lot to you just shrums.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
Yeah, when you're when you're slogan is do you want
to beat the traphic?
Speaker 3 (39:00):
You've done some things on defense.
Speaker 12 (39:05):
I think this one's tough because you'd have to get
a really particular part of the song.
Speaker 11 (39:10):
But the end from the doors came up.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Yeah, you'd have to get right to this.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
I don't friend.
Speaker 3 (39:19):
I only took a helmet from the bench and he
walked on.
Speaker 11 (39:26):
Some people like the curb your enthusiasm theme.
Speaker 9 (39:29):
You know.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
That's good.
Speaker 4 (39:33):
That would be perfect, That's tremendous.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Yeah, what are you gonna do?
Speaker 4 (39:39):
I guess just.
Speaker 12 (39:39):
Zoom in on Danny Smith's big water gum.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
You could just short the tube.
Speaker 3 (39:45):
Of wamp and just hit those every time we do
something stupid wompom.
Speaker 11 (39:52):
You can go to the Muppet Show.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
The price is right. Thing, don't don't do.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
The Muppet Show.
Speaker 4 (40:09):
I mean it's kind of.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
Yes, it's like it's time to light the lights.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (40:20):
I'm not sure about that one.
Speaker 11 (40:21):
It's cute, but it needs works.
Speaker 4 (40:23):
Yeah, it's a little too happy.
Speaker 11 (40:24):
Somebody Kill Me by Adam Sandler made the listen.
Speaker 4 (40:29):
I mean, this was this was dark.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
Here was the sound of them getting food or Renegade
getting mood. Now, typically, if you don't know, the crowd
is usually going crazy at this point, and it's it
just sounds like an angry mom. It's not even so
(40:52):
much that there's booze.
Speaker 4 (40:54):
It's just as soon.
Speaker 12 (40:58):
As the screen went black, which is usually when people
start getting ready for it.
Speaker 4 (41:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (41:04):
Now, I have said many times that the problem might
not be that it's sticks. It's just the selection of
that stick song. That there's other stick songs that like,
maybe you put on there instead. And I think this
is the one if you just put a highlight package
(41:25):
to Babe, I'm leaving.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
I played it for Rogers next week.
Speaker 1 (41:35):
Dude, Rogers looks like he has lost the will to
play football. He just the body language is like, these
guys are idiots. I'm giving them hand signals and none
of them know what I'm trying to tell them.
Speaker 4 (41:48):
They're missing that requestion.
Speaker 2 (41:51):
That Bosh tackle was the official You're done? Tackle? Is
what that was? That's the official you're leaving now?
Speaker 1 (41:58):
It d tackle kind of felt like that did him in.
And I don't know how bad his wrist is or
we're gonna hear about it today. I'm sure you know
he finished the game, but you cannot put him in
this weekend if you have to run him out of
pistol shot on the entire time like against Baltimore, you can't.
Speaker 2 (42:14):
Didn't work, no way, no way.
Speaker 1 (42:15):
So what what will have changed between Sunday and today?
Speaker 6 (42:21):
Well, he thinks he was speculating after the game. He
thinks he'll be able to take snaps this week.
Speaker 4 (42:28):
How I don't know how. I mean, not a doctor,
just telling me what he said.
Speaker 11 (42:32):
I'm Michael, just disappointed.
Speaker 4 (42:37):
Mike Casa Holly and express though.
Speaker 3 (42:42):
I will say, let's take a look at Will Howard's
under the hood.
Speaker 2 (42:52):
What's wrong with that?
Speaker 4 (42:53):
We'll take a look at Will Howard next August.
Speaker 1 (42:55):
Billy he gon Joe Bartney's suggestion to go.
Speaker 4 (43:03):
For renegade. I gotta tell you clipse to this.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
I mean, I could just see the crowd going crazy
and then the terrible towels flipping out on.
Speaker 5 (43:11):
Them with the real stut walking up els mean Joe,
mad Dog and Ernie when they come out.
Speaker 4 (43:19):
Of Super Bowl ten.
Speaker 2 (43:21):
Yeah, when they walk on when they were walking out.
Speaker 1 (43:24):
Yes, the only problem is the actual message of the
song is anti conflict. Oh did you see the way
they were tackling the.
Speaker 11 (43:43):
Problem?
Speaker 4 (43:44):
Yeah, we need something that's a little more troll more about.
Speaker 1 (43:49):
Thanks Tom, Thanks to Joe Barnet, Thanks to Billy Garda.
Speaker 4 (43:55):
We love you, Belly.
Speaker 2 (44:02):
I'm alive, Couzy, I'm alive.
Speaker 1 (44:05):
Tomorrow on the show, Mister Wednesday. Is mister Wednesday Tomorrow?
Speaker 4 (44:08):
I think so?
Speaker 1 (44:08):
Yeah, Merrill, Hodge, Mark Madden, Tad Whistle's gonna stop by,
and a whole lot more.
Speaker 4 (44:13):
Don't forget this week's WDV.
Speaker 1 (44:15):
But like Game Day Bar of the Week to win
Haven and Cranberry this NFL season, stop and win Haven
and grab two seventy five bud Light bottles.
Speaker 4 (44:21):
During Steelers games. But like easy to drink, easy to enjoy,

Speaker 15 (44:57):
The Buffalo Bills brought the NFL's number one rushing offense
Pittsburgh Sunday, and that rushing offense dominated the game as
it guided the Bills to their twenty six to seven
victory over the Steelers. James Cook led the way for
Buffalo on the ground, gaining one hundred and forty four
yards on thirty two carries, his NFL leading seventh game
rushing over one hundred yards this year. The Bills improved
to six and one in games where Cook eclipses the
(45:17):
century mark. It wasn't just James Cook, as Ray Davis
and Josh Allen added sixty two and thirty eight rushing
yards respectively to rack up a total of two hundred
and forty nine yards on fifty one carries for Buffalo
two hundred and forty nine yards is the most rushing
yards gained against the Steelers at Akrosher Stadium and the
most overall in Pittsburgh since nineteen seventy five, when funny enough,
(45:38):
the Buffalo Bills ran for three hundred and ten yards
at three Rivers Stadium. Offensively, things didn't go any better
for the Steelers either. They were able to generate only
fifty eight yards rushing on one of the league's worst
run defenses heading into the game, and only gained one
hundred and sixty six yards of total offense with just
eighteen minutes time of possession. The loss dropped the Steelers
to six and six, same as the Baltimore Ravens, who
(46:00):
they play this Sunday at M and T Bank Stadium
in Baltimore, with the winner taking control of the AFC
North Division.
