Haven't shit where is he? I was hanging out in
the woods with dudes who ended up in jail for life.
But at a young age, I knew like, I should

Good morning, young Tad.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
I see that.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
How are you, buddy, good Billy? How you doing I'm
so far behind. I think I'm first Tad.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
That's what's going to that because I've been seeing you
on you You've been on more pad podcast than Blue
Choo lately. It's it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Well, you know, I'm still figuring that out. You know,
I've been invited on a few, I've gone on a few,
and I'm still figuring out this version of you know,
I don't know what do you call it publicity? I
guess publicity. So yeah, I think I'm ready to step
back for a little bit and just go silent for
(01:54):
a little while. I've done a couple now, and I
don't want to be that guy that's repeating himself, you
know what I mean. Yeah, So I'm just I'm you know,
I'm trying to figure out how you do that. It's
it's almost I didn't realize those things.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
I'm so far behind everything.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I didn't realize those things are like those are literally
like late night talking.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
They are that is the new Tonight Show.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
It's crazy, it's great, that's crazy. Well, they have much
bigger audiences, much bigger audiences than the Tonight Show.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Well, I think it feels a little bit like we're
stuck in Wayne's world. But you know we do what.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Yeah, well you did Corolla's podcast that's one of the
biggest in the world.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Yeah, he was nice enough to ask me on I
met him on Funny you should ask when we do
the game show, and he's been on there before, and
it was nice enough to ask. He was He was
really good with me. And like you said that, I
did Pete Holmes and he was nice. Yeah, really good dude.
And then I'm going to go to New York first
(02:55):
week of January to promote my tour and I'm doing
Mark and Kelly and you know a few other shows
like just to promote that I'm going to be out there.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Now people still watch that stuff. People still watch the morning.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Well, well people from Earth one. You know, this is
why I tell you, this is why I tell you
television and radio and movies better than the Internet, because
when you heard a nutbag or saw a nutbag on
TV or the movies, you shut that off and you went, now,
that's a good actor. See a nutbag on the internet,
(03:30):
You're like, they're out walking around, that could be down
the street, that that guy is in general population. You
understand he's out there. So now I'm not leaving it.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Well, it's like listen to Art Bell, right, like like
late at night and you listen to Art Bell Show,
and anybody that did any driving at night definitely knows
Art Bell. And you would hear these han kooks on
Art Bell's show, and those people are now affecting international elections.
It's crazy who we have seeded response. It's ability to
(04:01):
it used to be people you'd be laughing stuff and
like like the tinfoil hats are now running things.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Yeah, well, I you know, I don't think we should
be relying on comics for breaking news, political opinion, or science.
And that's me present company included. I wouldn't want me
in charge none of that. And I'm a pretty good guy.
Yeah you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
So I just I don't think.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
We should be wading in and putting all our hopes
on comics. Let's remember its entertainment, you know.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
Well, the good news is you got plenty of entertainment
coming up with this tour that's going to be taking
you all over the country.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
You ready for that.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
That's going to be a little bit of a little
it's weird, man.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
I slugged it out in the clubs for the last
year and a half to get ready for this thing.
And uh and we'll see, we'll see. I'm gonna do
this tour from January to the end of March. It's
a theater tour and uh and we'll see. We're gonna say,
I'm gonna make a decision after that as to whether
or not discontinues. To be honest us with you, I do, Uh,
(05:01):
I am, I'm I'm tired, man.
Speaker 5 (05:05):
What's the.
Speaker 6 (05:07):
What's the pace of this tour? Billy, Like, are you
getting nice?
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Well, let's hope it's not something that gives me pneumonia
and a fab like traveling to eerie.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
Take care of yourself, you know.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
No, I'm with you, believe me. It's been mentioned by
Missus Gardell. That's been put in the suggestion box.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
That's on the sign when you get into town.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
You know, come for the pneumonia, say.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Then a fish fry. But I'm gonna uh, it'll be like,
I'll do like two weekends in a row, four different theaters,
one Friday, one Saturday, the week one Friday, one Saturday.
Then I'm gonna take a week off then go back
out and do the same thing. And it goes like
that all the way through the end of March. So
we'll see, we'll see what happens. I'm not sure yet.
I'm just being open to whatever whatever supposed to be,
(05:59):
you know what I mean. I think you you can't
really push. You just got to keep trying. And so
we'll see, We'll let it unfold and let's see how
what happens. Well.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
In the meantime, you also have a pretty big deal
in the works. It's not like you're gonna go live
in a cottage, you know, no, no, no no. But
I I'm.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Excited to try to get another show going with Reno.
I'd really like that. Another buddy of mine approached me
about something like It's it feels like there's a little
more production ramping up this year in Los Angeles than
there has been in probably the last four because there's
been some tax credits that have come back, which is good.
And I don't know, I don't like I said, I
don't know, man, I'm just uh, you know. I guess
(06:37):
it's the line of old James Taylor song. I guess
my feet know where they want me to go. So
we'll see. I'm just gonna keep walking and turning door knobs,
and most see what happens.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
James Taylor, I guess my feet.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
No way.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
They want me to go walking down the country road,
which is ye song? James, Do you want to write
a lyric for that? No, let's just go with the ls.
We're just gonna lay. Laddie's got some lis for you
right now on DV. What's going on?
Speaker 5 (07:09):
Is this hours brought to you by better call Sy.
Speaker 6 (07:11):
Rather Cloudy, and I have thirty four today currently eighteen degrees.
Today is National Christmas Card Day, which is a helpful
last minute reminder that.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
It wait a minute, Wait a minute, isn't that Christmas?
Speaker 4 (07:27):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (07:29):
So there's a Christmas Card Day and then there's Christmas.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Well, I think what she's getting to is that today
is the sort of starting line for the song sending
out Christmas cards.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Probably declared you had because if we had to have
all cards in today, I'm done. Hey, I wish everybody,
I'm merry Christmas. I thought I thought that meant they
were due today. I was like, what, I think it's
the starting day, right.
Speaker 6 (07:52):
I think that it's a reminder if you're going to
be getting holiday cards out this year.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
You probably need to get a.
Speaker 6 (07:59):
Move on it, which I always feel triggered and shamed
when Thanksgiving is done and somebody wants to prove how
great they are at life and I've already received your
holiday card.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Yeah, so here's what you could not do. Don't send
me the family newsletter. I don't care. Just pictures acceptable,
but don't send me the family newsletter. I don't want
to re repport.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Unless it's full of really good dirt.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Then I want there's a lot.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Of hot bring it off adventure exactly.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Yeah, you must have.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
You have to invent a new kind of light bulb
for me to read the newsletter. I'm not reading the newsletter.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
I wanted And is like, well, our son Eric is
still a derelict, you know, yeah, popped again.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
You know, Todd has absolutely no hope. I don't think
it's going to happen for.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Eric is no longer working.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
For more details, call me directly, happy to fill you in.
That could be something you do where you just send
it out like a block, Like here's my sub stack
if you want to read about the fan.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Yeah, subscribe to my patreon.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
Yeah, tied to you and your wife do a a
Christmas card. We don't.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
We don't.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
We just absorbed the shame and the bad feelings.
Speaker 7 (09:21):
Uh yeah, it eventually, Yeah, it does when you start
you receiving, you know, the first one comes the mail
and and like Billy was alluding to earlier, you're like, oh, no,
this is the nightmare where it's a final and I
arrived at the tests and I've done no homework.
Speaker 8 (09:39):
I've done no studying. But yeah, we're just gonna let it.
I'm just gonna let it go by, you know. Yeah,
I'm only two cards deep this year. I've only received two.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
You know, if you really need it out, you can
always you didn't get it, you didn't, Yeah, I can't.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
I'll tell you.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
There's a couple of people that are stuck with me
that I wouldn't have blamed them for bailing a long
time ago, and I still get them. And I'm always like,
all right, man, thanks for keeping me on the list
because I haven't seen yet a while.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Like, there's a couple of you.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
For years, my old man down in Florida, if you
wanted to come stay with him, you had to send
a physical card and he would put them up over
the arc of the area in the living room and
if you didn't send him a card, you were not
welcome back in the house that he made a list
at the end of the get you will not be
(10:35):
visiting me. I did not receive a holiday card.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Well, I got special dispensation when I got when I
went to visit him.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Then that was good because.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
You're a different cake.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
Yeah. I came bearing dv T shirts for him, so
that that was.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
My wheel of cheesecake with you. He never forgot the
wheel of cheesecake that you.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
A lot of different cheesecakes, A whole bunch of cheesecakes here, hey, man,
Like I grew up in the you know, school of
as my dad said, come kicking because your hands are full.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
You know that's right, a doorbell with your elbow exactly.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I got crap in my hands.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
I love that.
Speaker 6 (11:11):
I used to do holiday cards every year, and I
know that there was like one year where whatever company
I ordered from actually did screw us like hard, where
they didn't deliver the cards in time for them to
get out by Christmas. And then I had these Christmas
cards and they went out super super late. And then
every year after that I ordered New Year's cards so
(11:35):
the theme was always Happy New Year, so that I
built in this cushion to get it out for January
and then you know, and especially like I'm not big
on those cards, like I car, I don't care, but
I'm kind of always like if you have a kid
or you're gonna like you just had a new baby
or something like that, and you want to do a
card for that reason, Like.
Speaker 5 (11:54):
Okay, I get it.
Speaker 6 (11:56):
But the last few years I got to be honest,
like now when people like I didn't get a Christmas
card from you, I'm like I stopped.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
I just stopped playing.
Speaker 6 (12:05):
I'm just like it's it's just too hard and I
don't care enough.
Speaker 5 (12:09):
You have Instagram fantastic, but.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Who says who comes up and says I didn't get
a Christmas card from you?
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Your aunt?
Speaker 4 (12:20):
Like, yeah, you guys.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
Do Christmas card this year? And I'm like, lay off me.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Yeah. I have a buddy, Billy, who is who you've met,
is like one of my best buds. And every year
his his Christmas card is a major production and it
has been for twenty years, and his wife and his
two daughters have to go through with whatever Kakamami idea
he comes up with and their doozies. Like a lot
(12:46):
of times they are I can't believe he convinces them
to do that because his daughters and his wife don't
share the same sort of kookie sensibilities that he has. Comedically,
they think he's an absolute, you know nutcase. He is,
and it's flight of every father is hilarious. The the
like photos that he like he did smoking the bandit
(13:07):
one year and like, you know, his wife's dressed up
like the cop.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
He's Burt Rental, you know, Like it's always stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
But it's getting to the point now where he feels
so much pressure every year to outdo the prior year. Sure,
and his ideas are getting wilder and wilder. I mean
he's been in drag like ten times at Christmas on
his card, like there's nothing that is out of bounce
for him. And I just keep asking him, like, dude,
are you gonna you're doing another one this year? He's like,
(13:32):
absolutely have to. I'm like, what's the pressure Like, He's
like insurmountable. It's crazy.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
That's that's the plight of the father. You bring some
gooffye joy into the house and then you know the
rest of the family puts it out like the fire department.
They just hit you with a house.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
But he's like doing it. He's Buffalo Bill and they're
all in the pit, you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (13:54):
Like it's stuff like that that's dark.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yo, it's crazy.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
It's so funny though every year you always look forward
to it and it's like fall down funny. But I
just keep thinking of those poor you know, his daughters
are like college age now, you know, but and his
wife are just like, there's so much more sophisticated and
civilized than he is. You know, he's like still he's
the president of the frat. Still he's coming in going
(14:21):
here's what we're gonna do, and they're like, oh Jesus no.
But now with photoshop, you know, I think he's like
able to do a little bit more. And you know,
there's no actual costuming. He's just like, I need your
face to look like this, and then he gets the
perfect picture. It's a little easier on.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
That, ah, but he went technical on us.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Yeah, like everybody else, he's getting AI G Yeah, I
on your Christmas card.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
I don't know. Yeah, everything is.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
I saw a commercial for a U, a well known
U fast food place. So shall we say that was
all a that was getting thrown around?
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Did you see that?
Speaker 4 (15:02):
Abby?
Speaker 5 (15:05):
But go ahead?
Speaker 4 (15:05):
It genuinely looked like slop, like it looked bad, and
they are running it around the world. And I thought, like,
are we going to accept a lesser product going forward?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
And there is no reason to believe we won't.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
And the reason is because that I think that is
after COVID all of a sudden, broadcast sensibilities went out
the window. ESPN has people in their attic all day on.
They're in and out the entire time, you know what
I mean. Like Billy's a guest right now doing this,
but he's not a feature part of the show. There
(15:41):
are people he's not like the entire show. There are
people doing entire shows. They're not even at work. Tony
Kornheiser sitting up in his you know, study doing the
show from there. And the evening news is running footage
that people filmed on their phones, like they used to
not even put up a picture that a viewer sent
in without it being like, you know, John z and
(16:03):
Zoe from Doo Boys sent us this picture of the
lovely foliage.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
You know it would be once in a blue moon.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
Now it's like the crux of the news, and we
keep accepting lesser standards. So the people that own the
companies are like, well, why would we pay for all
that infrastructure to make it good when people don't care.
So that's why I'm worried about AI is that it
looks bad. It's definitely not as good, but do people care?
Speaker 6 (16:28):
Okay, So Billy and I had this conversation though, right
before we got into the burg.
Speaker 5 (16:33):
We were just talking about this.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
I had.
Speaker 6 (16:35):
There was a little new segment this morning as I
was getting ready about how there's a boom in people
getting back into film photography and even how that's like
a hot gift this year.
Speaker 9 (16:46):
Well, it's pretty good gift idea, because people are kind
of getting sick of having this bank of photos in
their phone that either they never really look at but
also they can't touch, and also like.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
There's kind of nothing to it.
Speaker 6 (17:01):
It doesn't like really cost you anything to take a
thousand photos, right, And there's like something about the moment
of taking a photo and getting it right and then
developing the film. And this is a younger generation that
wants that right. There's an accountability to it, there's a
risk to it. They're feeling something. I have so much
hope for that, I really really do. I might be alone,
(17:24):
I know, but it's the same thing. It's the same
movement of people that want final and they want to
hold something. And it's just like, I think that to
your point, Randy, you keep seeing that over and over again,
and you keep.
Speaker 5 (17:36):
Going, why doesn't it make me feel anything?
Speaker 6 (17:39):
And people just keep getting reiterated with this nothingness, and
then they will get yeah, they will get pushed toward
I want to go outside.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
I'm in favor.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
I hope, man, Yeah, me too.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
I hope.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Like I said my prayers every night before I go
to bed, let the internet become so ridiculu list that
it implodes, that's what. And we're going to be getting
close because you almost don't believe anything now. And I
think that's the only thing that's going to make us
look up again is when everybody, no matter what you think,
realizes I can't find the truth. I can't find anything real.
(18:15):
I'm done being shocked. I'm going to a concert and
let's hope that comes back.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
I don't know, Billy, There's plenty of people who see
a video of a gorilla hanging onto a doorknob, getting
sucked up into a tornado, and then asking this real.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
America, that's.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
An judy for real?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
What else you got to have?
Speaker 4 (18:42):
You?
Speaker 1 (18:42):
All right?
Speaker 5 (18:43):
Actually?
Speaker 6 (18:44):
I wanted to bring this up because there is a
new Netflix documentary Kidnapped Elizabeth Smart, which revisits the two
thousand and two abduction that became one of the nation's
most closely followed missings person's case, telling the story in
Elizabeth's own words, and she explained that after her rescue
that she didn't want to talk about what happened with anybody,
but sharing her experience as an adult became a way
(19:06):
to reclaim her narrative. And I was going through this
and I know that this was, like, you know, obviously
a story that really kind of gripped everybody, And you know,
I was thinking, like, we know so much now, we
see so much on social media that you kind of
like wonder about these kind of abduction stories, like is
this ever like something like we protect our children so
much that you kind of like, I don't know that
this is something that we hear.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
About as much.
Speaker 6 (19:29):
I had a holiday party in my neighborhood this weekend,
and I think that my kid knows everything.
Speaker 5 (19:35):
About stranger danger. Right, we have this holiday party.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
They got a food truck, they had a Santa, they
had little crafts and everything.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
And one guy walking around.
Speaker 6 (19:47):
It was it was, it was beautifully planned. I could
not believe that the neighborhood pulled this all together. But
at one point I noticed that Santa was kind of
pied pipering and taking all the kids off into like
a wooded.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
Area by himself. Whoa to have a snowball fight? And
I was. I was at the food truck with the
other adults and.
Speaker 6 (20:10):
We were having like you know, like these shy lattes
and hot cocoas and everything. And I went which which
neighbor by the way, I can't I can't tell who's
who anymore, who's in the Santa costume?
Speaker 5 (20:20):
And they're like, oh, they hired somebody.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
I'm like, hey, hey, guys, let's watch the kids.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
Jean Wayne. Santa was so easy. He's had a white
van with Sleigh written on it.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
They all big red like it still looked like the
blood was running.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
Yes, exactly, but they followed him like it was nothing.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
Well, because he was Santa. I know that one's on
you not on the kids.
Speaker 6 (20:54):
No, well, I saw I started following, and I'm standing
and I'm watching, and then one of the other dads
like walked over and was like, hey, sweet, come over
here just for a second.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
We're probably gonna go soon.
Speaker 6 (21:03):
And she starts bawling her eyes out and he's like, hey,
we don't really know Santa, And she said.
Speaker 5 (21:09):
What are you talking about, Santa? Navigate me through this,
Riddle me this.
Speaker 6 (21:15):
What was the parental Like, what do you do in
that scenario?
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Dude?
Speaker 4 (21:22):
I think it's hilarious that you guys hired a Santa
who tried to steal the case.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
He's one of Santa's helpers.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Yeah, so yeah, I really loved ab Yo. That was
straight Pittsburgh right there. Yeah, yo, yo, yo, Shanna, where

Speaker 4 (22:02):
Exactly what I just wanted.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Candy, We're gonna eat Rudolph's heart what.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
He just starts doing some pagan ritual Jesus get rid of.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
The Burrow and then the Burrow Lives characters and goes

and children.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Back to Christmas.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
He's just doing that little sweeping move that the burrough
Lives thing does to move. Doesn't have legs, It just
kind of like floats around like it hovers.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Then you're like, what isn't this try tea? Is this ayahuasca?
Speaker 4 (22:35):

Speaker 4 (22:48):
But I love them all.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
I love thee There is a.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Something warm abottom when you watch them.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
I love them. Uh.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
The ranking in bass is the production team that think
that's right, very good. But on the Chair Company, we
were talking about Tim Robinson's one of the side little
jokes is I haven't seen this is that good?
Speaker 5 (23:10):
He says it's cringey too.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
But his son, who is like a star backball player,
says he wants to stop playing basketball, and you know
he's he was headed forst scholarship. His heart's not in it,
and he's like, okay, buddy, well what do you want
to do? And he's like stop animation and he's like,
you mean like Rudolph. He's like, well, it's not it's
not all like Rudolph, and so he's okay. But that's
what I know, is like Rudolph and stuff. And it's
usually just like the whole gist of them is a
(23:35):
Santa can't do.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
It, can't do it.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
Maybe last it's like everyone was like, hey, he's not
gonna be able to do it this year.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
I can't do it, and they're, well, we got to
rescue Chris.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
You know. Every one of them is essentially Santa can't
do it, you know, but they are great. The heat
Miser one. Which one is that? The one that has
the heat Miser? And I'm mister.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Yeah, him and mister Freeze become friends, remember, Yeah, which
one is it is that that's not Rudolph that's coming
to town.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
Yes, I think you're right, And that's what because that's
one that has Chris Kringle when he's like younger, Yes,
she looks like Conan O'Brien.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
He does.
Speaker 5 (24:20):
The year with.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
Yeah, just to fatten them up.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
That's right, missus caused us to faten him up. Eat
dumb fitting with the first I'm gonna make Patty start
saying that when I come to the table, I want
to hear eat Papa. That's what I want to hear.
That's my That's going to be a declaration.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
Well, the Steelers fed on Ravens this past Sunday.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
That Yeah, damn, it's just enough hope to get disappointed
by Miam.
Speaker 4 (24:51):
Stop it, no, you forget, Yeah, Jacob, don't laugh at that.
This is Look, we have changed our attitude. It's nothing
but positivity. Aaron Rodgers is leading us to the promised Land.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
I'm on Beta Blockers from my heart right now. I
gotta double down on Sundays. I gotta double that doch
just to get through this.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
When I'm dying, you gotta put some extra in your
Buffalo chicken dip.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Yeah. I could have been one of those those pepper
crackers and I just ship Blockers over so I can
get through these games. My god.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Pursuit is coming in next with Your Sports on DVE.
Speaker 10 (25:30):
Live from the Don's Appliance Studios, where Pittsburgh shops for
appliance is.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
This is w d VEE Pittsburgh and Mike Prosuita joining
us here now on DVE Sports. US have brought to
you by Ridgeal Appliants.
Speaker 11 (25:44):
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel characterized his running back de
Von h Chan as quote highly motivated to play unquote
looking ahead to the Dolphins visit to Akrosher Stadium this
coming Monday night. Eh Chan was running through the New
York Jets seven carries for ninety two yards and then
he left the game with a rib injury. He has
(26:06):
been tearing it up of late. The Dolphins have been
tearing it up of Lake. They'll come to town riding
a four game winning streak and having won five of
six after starting the season one and six.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
Yeah, it's gonna be really embarrassing if Mike Tomlin caps
off beating the Ravens by losing the Howdie duty on
Monday night.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Well, you know that guy, the head coach of the
Dolphins reminds me that little tiny, brainy chicken guy that
used to follow fog horn like corner.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
I say, I said, how did you do.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
That about a boy? I don't like baseball. I'm not
even gonna look and he.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
Writes out the mathematical formula for how he made it happen. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 11 (26:49):
You know, they fired their GM Chris Career on October
the thirty first, after falling the one in six via
an embarrassing loss to Cleveland, as if there's any other kind. Yes,
haven't lost since. Excuse that was after the Baltimore game,
not the Cleveland game.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Same thing.
Speaker 11 (27:08):
Uh, But McDaniel at that time was considered to be toast. Yes,
they're they're just not firing them with the GM because
they just don't want to have to have somebody else
coach the team the rest of the year.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
These guys have it together.
Speaker 11 (27:20):
And I mentioned today it's it's hard to tell watching
the Jets be so non competitive against the Dolphins, but
that's that doesn't mean Miami's not executing. And it was
interesting during the CBS broadcast of that Dolphins Jets game,
A Deedie Kinkobwalla was the sideline reporter and she did
a little hit on McDaniel and basically what changed, and
(27:44):
they said when they fell to one and six, he
had a meeting with the captains and the team's leadership
council and they basically decided less is more. They're calling
it conviction. Name yeah, they're calling it conviction over perfection.
(28:05):
And they've shortened the time of the meetings and they're
only giving the players what they consider to be critical information.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Like you block him.
Speaker 11 (28:15):
You know, they're not overloading these guys and spend it
all day and going over it and and the team
is responding and they're playing much better.
Speaker 12 (28:23):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
One of the things I jotted down in my notes,
when you have Tyreek Hill and the team, he's not
on there now because you couldn't say conviction over perfection.
Speaker 11 (28:39):
With probably more, but you know there you can tell
they're having a good time winning. They got the new
loution thing going. They like winning. It's like better than losing,
and they're enjoying playing. One of the things I wrote
down in my notes was they have a variety of
well choreographed touchdown celebration.
Speaker 4 (28:58):
Because I mean, it was.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
A big the first three drives against the Jets.
Speaker 11 (29:02):
They got it in the end zone, and they did
something different every time, and it was I couldn't tell
what they were spoofing, but it was pretty involved.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
Like, yeah, how I always wonder about when they practice
that and when they you know, it's like a mic
laying gold call.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
How do you know which one to pull out?
Speaker 4 (29:14):
You know?
Speaker 11 (29:15):
But it's I mean, there's a there's an energy with
that team now. Yeah, and they're gonna be uh, this
is not a layup.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
They're gonna be pesky. Now, They're gonna be pesky. I agree,
They're gonna wear home for it.
Speaker 11 (29:27):
Yeah, and they're gonna try to run the ball down
the Steelers' throats and they're gonna they're gonna get them
all kind of eye candy, all kind of motions and
shifts and loaded backfields and weird looking, not weird looking,
but formations that you don't normally see. Yeah, and the
Steelers are gonna have to deal with it. This is uh,
this is.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
A pretty well earlier in the season, this seemed like
a layup.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
It is anything but correct.
Speaker 11 (29:51):
And I was gonna say, this is a big week
for the coaches. Every week's a big week for the coaches.
But the Steelers are gonna have to be well prepared.
You heard Aaron Rodgers, a of the Ravens game, talk
about how well they prepared and practiced. They better be
on their details with this crowd or they're gonna look silly.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
Losing to the Dolphins does make you look silly. Even
though they've turned it around us.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Tua should not be able to come into akrosure and
two is like a passenger right now. He just handed off.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
Yeah, they'll say something stupid after the game and get
back after it again.
Speaker 11 (30:23):
Hand it off throats short, you know nothing. You think,
oh my god, these guys have a great quarterback. But
they're not turning the ball over either. In this winning
streak of Theirs four games, they've gotten ten takeaways and
only three giveaways. So they're plus seven in four games,
which is almost plus two a game, which is it's
(30:44):
a big edge, plus two a game.
Speaker 8 (30:46):
As it's cold this week, as Pittsburgh's we need to
embrace the cold because that could be what does it
for Tua?
Speaker 1 (30:52):
You know in the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 11 (30:53):
I'm glad you brought that up because it might be
Tua when it's forty six toes or colder is not good.
He uh is uh. He beat the Jets when it
was forty three degrees. That was his first win when
it was colder than forty three.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
What are we looking at for Sunday?
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Mike if it's any like it is today, it's going
to be cold.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
Well, anytime I think about the Miami Dolphins coming to
Pittsburgh and playing in the cold, I think of this
play second.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
And nine, could play action four five. Some time he
gets away from to it, it comes Harrison chasing More.
Oh my goodness, More is absolutely lay was going to
get up.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
Oh Matt Moore getting bud dupreed in the second quarter
of that game in was that.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
Two thousand and fifteen? That was the playoff game? Yes,
it was.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Was the wildcard game here in fifteen or sixteen something
like that.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
That was the run was sixteen?
Speaker 4 (31:59):
Next week they can't the city week after they lost
to New England. Okay, the one where Lev took himself
out of the game because he was he's hurt. Yeah,
capping his illustrious career. Anyways, that's what I want to see,
big hits. I'm leaving on a two because that poor
girl die. Yeah, and again like that, his head will
(32:20):
fly through the uprights if you hit him the way
the budd Pre hit Mantas that.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
I don't you should.
Speaker 4 (32:25):
I mean something that Harbos should bring up with the
committee next year. But uh, what's the line right now
on that game, I have not looked. I got I
thought it was gonna be Steelers minus five and a half.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
Steelers minus three. That's it.
Speaker 11 (32:42):
That's that's your home. And so they're saying the two teams.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
Are either they're saying it's a pick them.
Speaker 11 (32:48):
Yeah, it's just you know, give him what we've seen
from the Steelers sounds about right.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Yeah. I hate admitting that, but you are right.
Speaker 4 (32:55):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Let me do a quick break and we'll come back
and one more Uh.
Speaker 4 (32:58):
We'll visit with Billy Gardell here life from Los Angeles, California,
with his least you could do is turn the lights
on on your Christmas tree behind you. She looked like him.
Speaker 3 (33:07):
Man, Listen, that comes on automatically at seven am. It's
six forty two out here. That starts rolling. Everything lights
up on a timer at seven am. It becomes a
winter wonderland. Just as Patty walks down the steps and
she goes, did you make the coffee?
Speaker 1 (33:24):
Does the train start at seven two? No?
Speaker 3 (33:27):
No, the training you have to put on manually. I'm
only allowed to play with that after four because she
doesn't like the noise.
Speaker 4 (33:33):
Do you put the liquid smoke in the thing so
that it blows smoke when it goes around.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
It not only blows liquid smoke, but it smells like
hot cocoa.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
Oh mine would smell like something else, but hot cocoa
is also good. Those days are over, so it's hood if.
Speaker 10 (33:48):
You're dribbling on the steering wheel that he's doing his job.
Chad Tyson rocks Pittsburgh weekday afternoons on DV. He also
has a reloading cut from the DV Morning Show and
Sports News after Noons with Chad Tyson on dv E.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
It's the DV Morning Show.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
Our buddy Tad Whistle hanging out with us here at
live in studio and Billy Gardell live from Los Angeles, California.
And you know, I told you during the break you
don't have to come on with us in the morning
when you have a late night. And you had another
one of them late nights last night.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
He was on.
Speaker 13 (34:25):
Stage, had a good show. Yeah, who was on the
stage of the pretty good crew. And first of all,
I like coming on in the morning. I don't want
to torch you guys in the afternoon. One thing you learn,
never torture radio people in the afternoon. The only time,
they have to themselves, so I wouldn't do that. But
last night I was at the Improva had a great show.
Speaker 4 (34:42):
Man.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
It was like the it was like the Way Back Machine.
Speaker 4 (34:45):
It was.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
It was Me, Darryl Hammond, Arsenio Hall, and Nicki Glazier
popped out.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Oh man.
Speaker 3 (34:50):
So that was a really good show them Prova last night.
I was really glad to be a part of it
because this weekend I had a tough one. I was
at a casino. Me and Joey O'Connell from pen Hills
went up to a casino in Susanville, California. And to
get there, man, it was planes, trains and automobiles. We
had to fly into Reno and then drive ninety miles
up into this little town of twelve thousand.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
Where this casino was.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
And we had a classic O'Connell Gardell moment because afterwards
we were trying to get.
Speaker 4 (35:18):
Something to eat and there's nothing open but to drive
through it.
Speaker 3 (35:21):
We were going back and forth about, well, there's a
Burger King and they got onion rings, but there's a
Wendy's and that's probably a better burger.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
So we had them both like it was the old days.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
That right, because we went through Wendy's and got the
burger and Joe didn't want to get fries, so we
got the baked potato. Yeah, And then we drove across
the street into the Burger King and as we pulled
up to the window, he had the potato from Wendy's
in his hands. While we were eating that. We had
a bag of Wendy's while we were ordering Burger King.
(35:53):
It's a good thing we're not on boar all the
time together, That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (35:57):
So you like butching sun dance knocking off two safes
and one run. I think we can knock them both
down if we go. Now, who are those guys? Weren't
the tights?
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Pot where the tights?
Speaker 4 (36:12):
But I know Christmas is like your time, Like this
is your holiday.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
There are Thanksgivings.
Speaker 4 (36:18):
My time.
Speaker 3 (36:19):
That's my kickoff is Thanksgiving, that's my time.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
But you kick off Christmas Thanksgiving.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
I do.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
I do.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
I put the tree up and the train all that
starts the day before Thanksgiving at my house and I
try to and I'll run it until Patty goes, okay,
take it down. So I think I got her to
January sixteenth once.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
That's my record. That's as far out as I got it.
Have you started watching Christmas movies yet?
Speaker 3 (36:42):
I have?
Speaker 4 (36:43):
Yeah, I got a few. I did have.
Speaker 3 (36:44):
Yeah, I'm like you. I pop them on and I
like the one on Yeah, me too. I don't like
the newer stuff. And I of course, as we get
closer to the holiday, we have a schedule like Christmas
Eve in this house. For the last twenty years, Will's
entire life is the Polar Express and then die Hard.
We don't believe it's Christmas in this house until Hans
(37:04):
Kruberg goes off the KNOCKNA tell me plasm that that
signifies Christmas for me? And uh, And then leading up
to it, we like to we like to put some
of our classics on. I got to watch the the
Charlie Brown Christmas. Got to watch.
Speaker 4 (37:18):
The fiftieth or fiftieth anniversary? Is it the sixtieth anniversary
of Charlie Brown?
Speaker 1 (37:24):
I don't know. I sent it to you earlier.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
Abby.
Speaker 1 (37:25):
It's like, Uh, that's how listen.
Speaker 3 (37:27):
That's how Patty got me to wear that Apple watch
thing because it monitors my heart. I gotta check my
KG once in a while. That's how she got that
Apple watch on my wrists. She's like, look, you could
put Snoopy on the front of it. You like snoopy.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
So they do like snoopy.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
That's how I ended up with my Apple. I like Snoopy.
Like she jumps into the leafs right after he raked it.
I don't know why he does that. It's baffling to me.
Speaker 4 (37:53):
That whole the whole story of that Christmas, the Charlie
Brown Christmas, is crazy too, Like they I think Coca
Cola paid for it originally, and they didn't want that
biblical aspect of it at the end, you know where
he like reads the Bible passage, which just think about that,
Like sixty years ago, they're like, oh, we don't want
to be overly religious. Now they'd be like, there needs
(38:14):
to be more Bible.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
We need lots more Bible in there.
Speaker 4 (38:20):
They're gonna get that.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
They're gonna get the guys from Stuff Park to add
a bunch of characters. Car is gonna join the Peanuts gang.
Speaker 4 (38:31):
I love the Peanuts. It was it was such like
a hilarious group, comfortable, but it like it had a
weird way of representing all kinds of different people in
the archetype of these these little kids representing all those
different archetypes. A slob guy, exactly, every crew has got
a slob guy. That's a big pen. You got big pen.
(38:51):
That's exactly right.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Yeah, that guy's a mess.
Speaker 3 (38:54):
The best, the best, the best pig Pen one is
the Halloween one where everybody's dressed as a ghost and
he's walking. Pig Pen is in his dirt, still following him.
He's like, they're never going to recognize me, and like, hey,
pig Pen, you're feilthy disgusting.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
You're gross disgusting.
Speaker 8 (39:13):
How'd you like to be Charles Schultz's buddy who it's like,
obviously based on you.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
Thanks for putting me in there. I guess.
Speaker 3 (39:25):
I feel the church the truth. I had to tell you, Sambo,
you know, you know he's like, what is which one?
Speaker 4 (39:32):
Am?
Speaker 1 (39:32):
I am? I? Uh am? I lies? No, Well I'm
not Franklin.
Speaker 4 (39:37):
I know. Yeah, he's got the horny girl, He's got
the two lesbians.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
I mean, there's everybody is represented.
Speaker 4 (39:47):
In the in the depressive loser that is Charlie Brown.
It is funny that like this is the second lesbian,
Marcy and Pepperman Patty and Patty.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
She literally.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
Yeah, yeah, I think, I think, I think, I think.
I think Marci is a young version of Thelma or
Velma on Scooby Doo visually. Yes, you could, you could
tie that together, right, she could be Vlma as a kid.
Speaker 4 (40:18):
Maybe she's just a smart chick. Yeah, she's just smart.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
Yeah, Peppermint Patty.
Speaker 4 (40:23):
I mean, they don't make a lot of bones about it,
like she's the best athlete in the Peanuts, crushes them.
Speaker 3 (40:27):
Yeah, she was. She was wearing she was wearing birkenstocks
before were a thing.
Speaker 1 (40:33):
She pulled a bit of super ruin that one.
Speaker 4 (40:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Those are from the sixties, right.
Speaker 4 (40:37):
Yeah, sixty years ago, yes, sixties, like today, it's the
sixtieth anniversary. So well that's looks the key to all
of it, does Vince. So it's just amazing. Geraldy's Tree.
I have that on Green Vinyl.
Speaker 3 (40:54):
That's how good that?
Speaker 5 (40:55):
Wow?
Speaker 4 (40:56):
Oh I know exactly Green vinyl. Yeah, that album, of
course you did. It's the reissue. Yeah, yeah, it's really good.
Speaker 3 (41:02):
It's that's the best one to put on in the
background when you're decorating and stuff.
Speaker 4 (41:07):
It's a killer, no question. Billy Gardell, lying from Los Angeles,
California this morning. So Bobby, all right, are we going
to talk to you next week or are you out
and about already? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (41:15):
No, No, I'm good. I'm good until we until I
start working again. That's gonna be get enough TV show.
And let's never talk about stand up again.
Speaker 4 (41:23):
I am tired, Yeah, I see, hold on, I am
going to submit right now. And I want it on
record that this like, oh, I know, maybe stand up
I don't know. I'm tired has little. It's not with
your lack of passion for the form, because we already
went through this. Thus it's you just went through a
(41:44):
major medical thing and then took no time to rest. Well,
I'm taking this month. I'm not doing nothing this all right.
What I'm saying is at the end of this month,
where you kind of chill out for a while, maybe
those fires are lit a little hotter.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
That's all.
Speaker 4 (41:59):
I hope. We'll we'll see, We'll see what happens.
Speaker 3 (42:01):
I go out there and pedal my wares like Willie
Lowman the last of the kind stand ups.
Speaker 4 (42:06):
By the way, did you see your former partner Melissa
McCarthy hosting SNEL this past weekend.
Speaker 3 (42:11):
I didn't get to see it. I got it taped.
I think that's her sixth one. My favorite thing she
ever did for me though, which was really sweet. My
wardrobe guy Anton, great dude. One Christmas took a picture
of me sitting in the director's chair. I was in
my we were outside and I was in my cop
uniform and I had a cigarette in my mouth and
(42:32):
I just flipped him off and he took a picture
of it, and he printed that on a T shirt
and he had the whole crew come out at rehearsal.
Speaker 4 (42:41):
They were all wearing that T shirt, about one hundred
and fifty of them. Mate.
Speaker 3 (42:45):
But she wore that T shirt on Saturday Night Live
on her first I remember.

Here's Tom Opperman.
Speaker 14 (44:19):
The Steelers took over first place in the ANFC nors
Sunday defeating the Ravens twenty seven to twenty two in
Baltimore in a game that the Steelers were outgained and
out possessed, but came up with more plays.
Speaker 4 (44:27):
Than the big moments to escape Maryland with a win.
Speaker 14 (44:30):
A couple of those big moments came on the defensive
side of the ball and were authored by cornerback James Pierre,
linebacker Patrick Queen, and outside linebacker Alex Highsmith. James Pierre,
who has been a pleasant surprise for the Steelers this
year at corner, made an impressive one handed interception of
Lamar Jackson in the first half for the game's only turnover,
which the Steelers would convert into three points. Patrick Queen
came up with a huge pass breakup on tight end
(44:51):
Mark Andrews on fourth down with the Ravens at the
Steelers goal line threatening to take the lead late in
the fourth quarter, and he also chipped in seven tackles
while clearly playing through an injury.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
But Alex Heismith was perhaps.
Speaker 14 (45:01):
The man of the match for the Steelers on defense,
having seven tackles, three tackles for loss, two quarterback hits,
and the walk off sack of Lamar Jackson to steal
the victory for Pittsburgh. It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows
for the Steelers defense, though, as they surrendered over two
hundred yards rushing for the second straight week. And seeing
as the Steelers next opponent, the Miami Dolphins, just ran
for two hundred and thirty nine yards this past Sunday
(45:21):
and that's something that Steelers need to improve and in
a hurry, I'm Tom Opferman with the Steelers Report.

You're not even sure. My father knew I was out
of the house, was here here, I.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
Haven't shit where is he? I was hanging out in
the woods with dudes who ended up in jail for life.
But at a young age, I knew like, I should
probably not hang out with this guy. This guy is scary,
and I just keep my huffy within the you know
a radio.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Yeah, Brandy Bellman and the d V Morning Show.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Billy Gardell joining us live from Los Angeles, California.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Kazi, our friend Tad whistling.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Good morning, young Tad.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
I see that.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
How are you, buddy, good Billy? How you doing I'm
so far behind. I think I'm first Tad.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
That's what's going to that because I've been seeing you
on you You've been on more pad podcast than Blue
Choo lately. It's it's crazy.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Well, you know, I'm still figuring that out. You know,
I've been invited on a few, I've gone on a few,
and I'm still figuring out this version of you know,
I don't know what do you call it publicity? I
guess publicity. So yeah, I think I'm ready to step
back for a little bit and just go silent for
(01:54):
a little while. I've done a couple now, and I
don't want to be that guy that's repeating himself, you
know what I mean. Yeah, So I'm just I'm you know,
I'm trying to figure out how you do that. It's
it's almost I didn't realize those things.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
I'm so far behind everything.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I didn't realize those things are like those are literally
like late night talking.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
They are that is the new Tonight Show.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
It's crazy, it's great, that's crazy. Well, they have much
bigger audiences, much bigger audiences than the Tonight Show.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Well, I think it feels a little bit like we're
stuck in Wayne's world. But you know we do what.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Yeah, well you did Corolla's podcast that's one of the
biggest in the world.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Yeah, he was nice enough to ask me on I
met him on Funny you should ask when we do
the game show, and he's been on there before, and
it was nice enough to ask. He was He was
really good with me. And like you said that, I
did Pete Holmes and he was nice. Yeah, really good dude.
And then I'm going to go to New York first
(02:55):
week of January to promote my tour and I'm doing
Mark and Kelly and you know a few other shows
like just to promote that I'm going to be out there.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Now people still watch that stuff. People still watch the morning.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Well, well people from Earth one. You know, this is
why I tell you, this is why I tell you
television and radio and movies better than the Internet, because
when you heard a nutbag or saw a nutbag on
TV or the movies, you shut that off and you went, now,
that's a good actor. See a nutbag on the internet,
(03:30):
You're like, they're out walking around, that could be down
the street, that that guy is in general population. You
understand he's out there. So now I'm not leaving it.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Well, it's like listen to Art Bell, right, like like
late at night and you listen to Art Bell Show,
and anybody that did any driving at night definitely knows
Art Bell. And you would hear these han kooks on
Art Bell's show, and those people are now affecting international elections.
It's crazy who we have seeded response. It's ability to
(04:01):
it used to be people you'd be laughing stuff and
like like the tinfoil hats are now running things.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Yeah, well, I you know, I don't think we should
be relying on comics for breaking news, political opinion, or science.
And that's me present company included. I wouldn't want me
in charge none of that. And I'm a pretty good guy.
Yeah you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
So I just I don't think.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
We should be wading in and putting all our hopes
on comics. Let's remember its entertainment, you know.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
Well, the good news is you got plenty of entertainment
coming up with this tour that's going to be taking
you all over the country.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
You ready for that.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
That's going to be a little bit of a little
it's weird, man.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
I slugged it out in the clubs for the last
year and a half to get ready for this thing.
And uh and we'll see, we'll see. I'm gonna do
this tour from January to the end of March. It's
a theater tour and uh and we'll see. We're gonna say,
I'm gonna make a decision after that as to whether
or not discontinues. To be honest us with you, I do, Uh,
(05:01):
I am, I'm I'm tired, man.
Speaker 5 (05:05):
What's the.
Speaker 6 (05:07):
What's the pace of this tour? Billy, Like, are you
getting nice?
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Well, let's hope it's not something that gives me pneumonia
and a fab like traveling to eerie.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
Take care of yourself, you know.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
No, I'm with you, believe me. It's been mentioned by
Missus Gardell. That's been put in the suggestion box.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
That's on the sign when you get into town.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
You know, come for the pneumonia, say.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Then a fish fry. But I'm gonna uh, it'll be like,
I'll do like two weekends in a row, four different theaters,
one Friday, one Saturday, the week one Friday, one Saturday.
Then I'm gonna take a week off then go back
out and do the same thing. And it goes like
that all the way through the end of March. So
we'll see, we'll see what happens. I'm not sure yet.
I'm just being open to whatever whatever supposed to be,
(05:59):
you know what I mean. I think you you can't
really push. You just got to keep trying. And so
we'll see, We'll let it unfold and let's see how
what happens. Well.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
In the meantime, you also have a pretty big deal
in the works. It's not like you're gonna go live
in a cottage, you know, no, no, no no. But
I I'm.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Excited to try to get another show going with Reno.
I'd really like that. Another buddy of mine approached me
about something like It's it feels like there's a little
more production ramping up this year in Los Angeles than
there has been in probably the last four because there's
been some tax credits that have come back, which is good.
And I don't know, I don't like I said, I
don't know, man, I'm just uh, you know. I guess
(06:37):
it's the line of old James Taylor song. I guess
my feet know where they want me to go. So
we'll see. I'm just gonna keep walking and turning door knobs,
and most see what happens.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
James Taylor, I guess my feet.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
No way.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
They want me to go walking down the country road,
which is ye song? James, Do you want to write
a lyric for that? No, let's just go with the ls.
We're just gonna lay. Laddie's got some lis for you
right now on DV. What's going on?
Speaker 5 (07:09):
Is this hours brought to you by better call Sy.
Speaker 6 (07:11):
Rather Cloudy, and I have thirty four today currently eighteen degrees.
Today is National Christmas Card Day, which is a helpful
last minute reminder that.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
It wait a minute, Wait a minute, isn't that Christmas?
Speaker 4 (07:27):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (07:29):
So there's a Christmas Card Day and then there's Christmas.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Well, I think what she's getting to is that today
is the sort of starting line for the song sending
out Christmas cards.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Probably declared you had because if we had to have
all cards in today, I'm done. Hey, I wish everybody,
I'm merry Christmas. I thought I thought that meant they
were due today. I was like, what, I think it's
the starting day, right.
Speaker 6 (07:52):
I think that it's a reminder if you're going to
be getting holiday cards out this year.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
You probably need to get a.
Speaker 6 (07:59):
Move on it, which I always feel triggered and shamed
when Thanksgiving is done and somebody wants to prove how
great they are at life and I've already received your
holiday card.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Yeah, so here's what you could not do. Don't send
me the family newsletter. I don't care. Just pictures acceptable,
but don't send me the family newsletter. I don't want
to re repport.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Unless it's full of really good dirt.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Then I want there's a lot.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Of hot bring it off adventure exactly.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Yeah, you must have.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
You have to invent a new kind of light bulb
for me to read the newsletter. I'm not reading the newsletter.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
I wanted And is like, well, our son Eric is
still a derelict, you know, yeah, popped again.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
You know, Todd has absolutely no hope. I don't think
it's going to happen for.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Eric is no longer working.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
For more details, call me directly, happy to fill you in.
That could be something you do where you just send
it out like a block, Like here's my sub stack
if you want to read about the fan.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Yeah, subscribe to my patreon.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
Yeah, tied to you and your wife do a a
Christmas card. We don't.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
We don't.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
We just absorbed the shame and the bad feelings.
Speaker 7 (09:21):
Uh yeah, it eventually, Yeah, it does when you start
you receiving, you know, the first one comes the mail
and and like Billy was alluding to earlier, you're like, oh, no,
this is the nightmare where it's a final and I
arrived at the tests and I've done no homework.
Speaker 8 (09:39):
I've done no studying. But yeah, we're just gonna let it.
I'm just gonna let it go by, you know. Yeah,
I'm only two cards deep this year. I've only received two.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
You know, if you really need it out, you can
always you didn't get it, you didn't, Yeah, I can't.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
I'll tell you.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
There's a couple of people that are stuck with me
that I wouldn't have blamed them for bailing a long
time ago, and I still get them. And I'm always like,
all right, man, thanks for keeping me on the list
because I haven't seen yet a while.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Like, there's a couple of you.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
For years, my old man down in Florida, if you
wanted to come stay with him, you had to send
a physical card and he would put them up over
the arc of the area in the living room and
if you didn't send him a card, you were not
welcome back in the house that he made a list
at the end of the get you will not be
(10:35):
visiting me. I did not receive a holiday card.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Well, I got special dispensation when I got when I
went to visit him.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Then that was good because.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
You're a different cake.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
Yeah. I came bearing dv T shirts for him, so
that that was.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
My wheel of cheesecake with you. He never forgot the
wheel of cheesecake that you.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
A lot of different cheesecakes, A whole bunch of cheesecakes here, hey, man,
Like I grew up in the you know, school of
as my dad said, come kicking because your hands are full.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
You know that's right, a doorbell with your elbow exactly.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I got crap in my hands.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
I love that.
Speaker 6 (11:11):
I used to do holiday cards every year, and I
know that there was like one year where whatever company
I ordered from actually did screw us like hard, where
they didn't deliver the cards in time for them to
get out by Christmas. And then I had these Christmas
cards and they went out super super late. And then
every year after that I ordered New Year's cards so
(11:35):
the theme was always Happy New Year, so that I
built in this cushion to get it out for January
and then you know, and especially like I'm not big
on those cards, like I car, I don't care, but
I'm kind of always like if you have a kid
or you're gonna like you just had a new baby
or something like that, and you want to do a
card for that reason, Like.
Speaker 5 (11:54):
Okay, I get it.
Speaker 6 (11:56):
But the last few years I got to be honest,
like now when people like I didn't get a Christmas
card from you, I'm like I stopped.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
I just stopped playing.
Speaker 6 (12:05):
I'm just like it's it's just too hard and I
don't care enough.
Speaker 5 (12:09):
You have Instagram fantastic, but.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Who says who comes up and says I didn't get
a Christmas card from you?
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Your aunt?
Speaker 4 (12:20):
Like, yeah, you guys.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
Do Christmas card this year? And I'm like, lay off me.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
Yeah. I have a buddy, Billy, who is who you've met,
is like one of my best buds. And every year
his his Christmas card is a major production and it
has been for twenty years, and his wife and his
two daughters have to go through with whatever Kakamami idea
he comes up with and their doozies. Like a lot
(12:46):
of times they are I can't believe he convinces them
to do that because his daughters and his wife don't
share the same sort of kookie sensibilities that he has. Comedically,
they think he's an absolute, you know nutcase. He is,
and it's flight of every father is hilarious. The the
like photos that he like he did smoking the bandit
(13:07):
one year and like, you know, his wife's dressed up
like the cop.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
He's Burt Rental, you know, Like it's always stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
But it's getting to the point now where he feels
so much pressure every year to outdo the prior year. Sure,
and his ideas are getting wilder and wilder. I mean
he's been in drag like ten times at Christmas on
his card, like there's nothing that is out of bounce
for him. And I just keep asking him, like, dude,
are you gonna you're doing another one this year? He's like,
(13:32):
absolutely have to. I'm like, what's the pressure Like, He's
like insurmountable. It's crazy.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
That's that's the plight of the father. You bring some
gooffye joy into the house and then you know the
rest of the family puts it out like the fire department.
They just hit you with a house.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
But he's like doing it. He's Buffalo Bill and they're
all in the pit, you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (13:54):
Like it's stuff like that that's dark.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yo, it's crazy.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
It's so funny though every year you always look forward
to it and it's like fall down funny. But I
just keep thinking of those poor you know, his daughters
are like college age now, you know, but and his
wife are just like, there's so much more sophisticated and
civilized than he is. You know, he's like still he's
the president of the frat. Still he's coming in going
(14:21):
here's what we're gonna do, and they're like, oh Jesus no.
But now with photoshop, you know, I think he's like
able to do a little bit more. And you know,
there's no actual costuming. He's just like, I need your
face to look like this, and then he gets the
perfect picture. It's a little easier on.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
That, ah, but he went technical on us.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
Yeah, like everybody else, he's getting AI G Yeah, I
on your Christmas card.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
I don't know. Yeah, everything is.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
I saw a commercial for a U, a well known
U fast food place. So shall we say that was
all a that was getting thrown around?
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Did you see that?
Speaker 4 (15:02):
Abby?
Speaker 5 (15:05):
But go ahead?
Speaker 4 (15:05):
It genuinely looked like slop, like it looked bad, and
they are running it around the world. And I thought, like,
are we going to accept a lesser product going forward?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
And there is no reason to believe we won't.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
And the reason is because that I think that is
after COVID all of a sudden, broadcast sensibilities went out
the window. ESPN has people in their attic all day on.
They're in and out the entire time, you know what
I mean. Like Billy's a guest right now doing this,
but he's not a feature part of the show. There
(15:41):
are people he's not like the entire show. There are
people doing entire shows. They're not even at work. Tony
Kornheiser sitting up in his you know, study doing the
show from there. And the evening news is running footage
that people filmed on their phones, like they used to
not even put up a picture that a viewer sent
in without it being like, you know, John z and
(16:03):
Zoe from Doo Boys sent us this picture of the
lovely foliage.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
You know it would be once in a blue moon.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
Now it's like the crux of the news, and we
keep accepting lesser standards. So the people that own the
companies are like, well, why would we pay for all
that infrastructure to make it good when people don't care.
So that's why I'm worried about AI is that it
looks bad. It's definitely not as good, but do people care?
Speaker 6 (16:28):
Okay, So Billy and I had this conversation though, right
before we got into the burg.
Speaker 5 (16:33):
We were just talking about this.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
I had.
Speaker 6 (16:35):
There was a little new segment this morning as I
was getting ready about how there's a boom in people
getting back into film photography and even how that's like
a hot gift this year.
Speaker 9 (16:46):
Well, it's pretty good gift idea, because people are kind
of getting sick of having this bank of photos in
their phone that either they never really look at but
also they can't touch, and also like.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
There's kind of nothing to it.
Speaker 6 (17:01):
It doesn't like really cost you anything to take a
thousand photos, right, And there's like something about the moment
of taking a photo and getting it right and then
developing the film. And this is a younger generation that
wants that right. There's an accountability to it, there's a
risk to it. They're feeling something. I have so much
hope for that, I really really do. I might be alone,
(17:24):
I know, but it's the same thing. It's the same
movement of people that want final and they want to
hold something. And it's just like, I think that to
your point, Randy, you keep seeing that over and over again,
and you keep.
Speaker 5 (17:36):
Going, why doesn't it make me feel anything?
Speaker 6 (17:39):
And people just keep getting reiterated with this nothingness, and
then they will get yeah, they will get pushed toward
I want to go outside.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
I'm in favor.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
I hope, man, Yeah, me too.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
I hope.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Like I said my prayers every night before I go
to bed, let the internet become so ridiculu list that
it implodes, that's what. And we're going to be getting
close because you almost don't believe anything now. And I
think that's the only thing that's going to make us
look up again is when everybody, no matter what you think,
realizes I can't find the truth. I can't find anything real.
(18:15):
I'm done being shocked. I'm going to a concert and
let's hope that comes back.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
I don't know, Billy, There's plenty of people who see
a video of a gorilla hanging onto a doorknob, getting
sucked up into a tornado, and then asking this real.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
America, that's.
Speaker 4 (18:35):
An judy for real?
Speaker 1 (18:41):
What else you got to have?
Speaker 4 (18:42):
You?
Speaker 1 (18:42):
All right?
Speaker 5 (18:43):
Actually?
Speaker 6 (18:44):
I wanted to bring this up because there is a
new Netflix documentary Kidnapped Elizabeth Smart, which revisits the two
thousand and two abduction that became one of the nation's
most closely followed missings person's case, telling the story in
Elizabeth's own words, and she explained that after her rescue
that she didn't want to talk about what happened with anybody,
but sharing her experience as an adult became a way
(19:06):
to reclaim her narrative. And I was going through this
and I know that this was, like, you know, obviously
a story that really kind of gripped everybody, And you know,
I was thinking, like, we know so much now, we
see so much on social media that you kind of
like wonder about these kind of abduction stories, like is
this ever like something like we protect our children so
much that you kind of like, I don't know that
this is something that we hear.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
About as much.
Speaker 6 (19:29):
I had a holiday party in my neighborhood this weekend,
and I think that my kid knows everything.
Speaker 5 (19:35):
About stranger danger. Right, we have this holiday party.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
They got a food truck, they had a Santa, they
had little crafts and everything.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
And one guy walking around.
Speaker 6 (19:47):
It was it was, it was beautifully planned. I could
not believe that the neighborhood pulled this all together. But
at one point I noticed that Santa was kind of
pied pipering and taking all the kids off into like
a wooded.
Speaker 5 (20:01):
Area by himself. Whoa to have a snowball fight? And
I was. I was at the food truck with the
other adults and.
Speaker 6 (20:10):
We were having like you know, like these shy lattes
and hot cocoas and everything. And I went which which
neighbor by the way, I can't I can't tell who's
who anymore, who's in the Santa costume?
Speaker 5 (20:20):
And they're like, oh, they hired somebody.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
I'm like, hey, hey, guys, let's watch the kids.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
Jean Wayne. Santa was so easy. He's had a white
van with Sleigh written on it.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
They all big red like it still looked like the
blood was running.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
Yes, exactly, but they followed him like it was nothing.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
Well, because he was Santa. I know that one's on
you not on the kids.
Speaker 6 (20:54):
No, well, I saw I started following, and I'm standing
and I'm watching, and then one of the other dads
like walked over and was like, hey, sweet, come over
here just for a second.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
We're probably gonna go soon.
Speaker 6 (21:03):
And she starts bawling her eyes out and he's like, hey,
we don't really know Santa, And she said.
Speaker 5 (21:09):
What are you talking about, Santa? Navigate me through this,
Riddle me this.
Speaker 6 (21:15):
What was the parental Like, what do you do in
that scenario?
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Dude?
Speaker 4 (21:22):
I think it's hilarious that you guys hired a Santa
who tried to steal the case.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
He's one of Santa's helpers.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Yeah, so yeah, I really loved ab Yo. That was
straight Pittsburgh right there. Yeah, yo, yo, yo, Shanna, where
are you from the part of the shitty?
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Are you from? Chris Kringle? That was the sideline?
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Yo.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
I mean, Sanna has been tracking a reindeer for the
last three days after he shot him. The other day.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
He kids, want to go help me. There's some blood
speckles in the snow.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
You guys want to drink the blood?
Speaker 4 (22:02):
Exactly what I just wanted.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Candy, We're gonna eat Rudolph's heart what.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
He just starts doing some pagan ritual Jesus get rid of.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
The Burrow and then the Burrow Lives characters and goes
there was nothing left to do but get the women
and children.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Back to Christmas.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
He's just doing that little sweeping move that the burrough
Lives thing does to move. Doesn't have legs, It just
kind of like floats around like it hovers.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Then you're like, what isn't this try tea? Is this ayahuasca?
Speaker 4 (22:35):
Burle? Did you?
Speaker 1 (22:38):
We got dosed?
Speaker 3 (22:40):
That hole that hold Those old clamations seem like a
bad doseg It seems like a microdose thing that those
old clamations.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
But I love them all.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
I love thee There is a.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Something warm abottom when you watch them.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
I love them. Uh.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
The ranking in bass is the production team that think
that's right, very good. But on the Chair Company, we
were talking about Tim Robinson's one of the side little
jokes is I haven't seen this is that good?
Speaker 5 (23:10):
He says it's cringey too.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
But his son, who is like a star backball player,
says he wants to stop playing basketball, and you know
he's he was headed forst scholarship. His heart's not in it,
and he's like, okay, buddy, well what do you want
to do? And he's like stop animation and he's like,
you mean like Rudolph. He's like, well, it's not it's
not all like Rudolph, and so he's okay. But that's
what I know, is like Rudolph and stuff. And it's
usually just like the whole gist of them is a
(23:35):
Santa can't do.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
It, can't do it.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
Maybe last it's like everyone was like, hey, he's not
gonna be able to do it this year.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
I can't do it, and they're, well, we got to
rescue Chris.
Speaker 4 (23:48):
You know. Every one of them is essentially Santa can't
do it, you know, but they are great. The heat
Miser one. Which one is that? The one that has
the heat Miser? And I'm mister.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Yeah, him and mister Freeze become friends, remember, Yeah, which
one is it is that that's not Rudolph that's coming
to town.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
Yes, I think you're right, And that's what because that's
one that has Chris Kringle when he's like younger, Yes,
she looks like Conan O'Brien.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
He does.
Speaker 5 (24:20):
The year with.
Speaker 4 (24:23):
Yeah, just to fatten them up.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
That's right, missus caused us to faten him up. Eat
dumb fitting with the first I'm gonna make Patty start
saying that when I come to the table, I want
to hear eat Papa. That's what I want to hear.
That's my That's going to be a declaration.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
Well, the Steelers fed on Ravens this past Sunday.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
That Yeah, damn, it's just enough hope to get disappointed
by Miam.
Speaker 4 (24:51):
Stop it, no, you forget, Yeah, Jacob, don't laugh at that.
This is Look, we have changed our attitude. It's nothing
but positivity. Aaron Rodgers is leading us to the promised Land.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
I'm on Beta Blockers from my heart right now. I
gotta double down on Sundays. I gotta double that doch
just to get through this.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
When I'm dying, you gotta put some extra in your
Buffalo chicken dip.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Yeah. I could have been one of those those pepper
crackers and I just ship Blockers over so I can
get through these games. My god.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Pursuit is coming in next with Your Sports on DVE.
Speaker 10 (25:30):
Live from the Don's Appliance Studios, where Pittsburgh shops for
appliance is.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
This is w d VEE Pittsburgh and Mike Prosuita joining
us here now on DVE Sports. US have brought to
you by Ridgeal Appliants.
Speaker 11 (25:44):
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel characterized his running back de
Von h Chan as quote highly motivated to play unquote
looking ahead to the Dolphins visit to Akrosher Stadium this
coming Monday night. Eh Chan was running through the New
York Jets seven carries for ninety two yards and then
he left the game with a rib injury. He has
(26:06):
been tearing it up of late. The Dolphins have been
tearing it up of Lake. They'll come to town riding
a four game winning streak and having won five of
six after starting the season one and six.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
Yeah, it's gonna be really embarrassing if Mike Tomlin caps
off beating the Ravens by losing the Howdie duty on
Monday night.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Well, you know that guy, the head coach of the
Dolphins reminds me that little tiny, brainy chicken guy that
used to follow fog horn like corner.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
I say, I said, how did you do.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
That about a boy? I don't like baseball. I'm not
even gonna look and he.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
Writes out the mathematical formula for how he made it happen. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 11 (26:49):
You know, they fired their GM Chris Career on October
the thirty first, after falling the one in six via
an embarrassing loss to Cleveland, as if there's any other kind. Yes,
haven't lost since. Excuse that was after the Baltimore game,
not the Cleveland game.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Same thing.
Speaker 11 (27:08):
Uh, But McDaniel at that time was considered to be toast. Yes,
they're they're just not firing them with the GM because
they just don't want to have to have somebody else
coach the team the rest of the year.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
These guys have it together.
Speaker 11 (27:20):
And I mentioned today it's it's hard to tell watching
the Jets be so non competitive against the Dolphins, but
that's that doesn't mean Miami's not executing. And it was
interesting during the CBS broadcast of that Dolphins Jets game,
A Deedie Kinkobwalla was the sideline reporter and she did
a little hit on McDaniel and basically what changed, and
(27:44):
they said when they fell to one and six, he
had a meeting with the captains and the team's leadership
council and they basically decided less is more. They're calling
it conviction. Name yeah, they're calling it conviction over perfection.
(28:05):
And they've shortened the time of the meetings and they're
only giving the players what they consider to be critical information.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Like you block him.
Speaker 11 (28:15):
You know, they're not overloading these guys and spend it
all day and going over it and and the team
is responding and they're playing much better.
Speaker 12 (28:23):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
One of the things I jotted down in my notes,
when you have Tyreek Hill and the team, he's not
on there now because you couldn't say conviction over perfection.
Speaker 11 (28:39):
With probably more, but you know there you can tell
they're having a good time winning. They got the new
loution thing going. They like winning. It's like better than losing,
and they're enjoying playing. One of the things I wrote
down in my notes was they have a variety of
well choreographed touchdown celebration.
Speaker 4 (28:58):
Because I mean, it was.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
A big the first three drives against the Jets.
Speaker 11 (29:02):
They got it in the end zone, and they did
something different every time, and it was I couldn't tell
what they were spoofing, but it was pretty involved.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
Like, yeah, how I always wonder about when they practice
that and when they you know, it's like a mic
laying gold call.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
How do you know which one to pull out?
Speaker 4 (29:14):
You know?
Speaker 11 (29:15):
But it's I mean, there's a there's an energy with
that team now. Yeah, and they're gonna be uh, this
is not a layup.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
They're gonna be pesky. Now, They're gonna be pesky. I agree,
They're gonna wear home for it.
Speaker 11 (29:27):
Yeah, and they're gonna try to run the ball down
the Steelers' throats and they're gonna they're gonna get them
all kind of eye candy, all kind of motions and
shifts and loaded backfields and weird looking, not weird looking,
but formations that you don't normally see. Yeah, and the
Steelers are gonna have to deal with it. This is uh,
this is.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
A pretty well earlier in the season, this seemed like
a layup.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
It is anything but correct.
Speaker 11 (29:51):
And I was gonna say, this is a big week
for the coaches. Every week's a big week for the coaches.
But the Steelers are gonna have to be well prepared.
You heard Aaron Rodgers, a of the Ravens game, talk
about how well they prepared and practiced. They better be
on their details with this crowd or they're gonna look silly.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
Losing to the Dolphins does make you look silly. Even
though they've turned it around us.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Tua should not be able to come into akrosure and
two is like a passenger right now. He just handed off.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
Yeah, they'll say something stupid after the game and get
back after it again.
Speaker 11 (30:23):
Hand it off throats short, you know nothing. You think,
oh my god, these guys have a great quarterback. But
they're not turning the ball over either. In this winning
streak of Theirs four games, they've gotten ten takeaways and
only three giveaways. So they're plus seven in four games,
which is almost plus two a game, which is it's
(30:44):
a big edge, plus two a game.
Speaker 8 (30:46):
As it's cold this week, as Pittsburgh's we need to
embrace the cold because that could be what does it
for Tua?
Speaker 1 (30:52):
You know in the Miami Dolphins.
Speaker 11 (30:53):
I'm glad you brought that up because it might be
Tua when it's forty six toes or colder is not good.
He uh is uh. He beat the Jets when it
was forty three degrees. That was his first win when
it was colder than forty three.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
What are we looking at for Sunday?
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Mike if it's any like it is today, it's going
to be cold.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
Well, anytime I think about the Miami Dolphins coming to
Pittsburgh and playing in the cold, I think of this
play second.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
And nine, could play action four five. Some time he
gets away from to it, it comes Harrison chasing More.
Oh my goodness, More is absolutely lay was going to
get up.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
Oh Matt Moore getting bud dupreed in the second quarter
of that game in was that.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
Two thousand and fifteen? That was the playoff game? Yes,
it was.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Was the wildcard game here in fifteen or sixteen something
like that.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
That was the run was sixteen?
Speaker 4 (31:59):
Next week they can't the city week after they lost
to New England. Okay, the one where Lev took himself
out of the game because he was he's hurt. Yeah,
capping his illustrious career. Anyways, that's what I want to see,
big hits. I'm leaving on a two because that poor
girl die. Yeah, and again like that, his head will
(32:20):
fly through the uprights if you hit him the way
the budd Pre hit Mantas that.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
I don't you should.
Speaker 4 (32:25):
I mean something that Harbos should bring up with the
committee next year. But uh, what's the line right now
on that game, I have not looked. I got I
thought it was gonna be Steelers minus five and a half.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
Steelers minus three. That's it.
Speaker 11 (32:42):
That's that's your home. And so they're saying the two teams.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
Are either they're saying it's a pick them.
Speaker 11 (32:48):
Yeah, it's just you know, give him what we've seen
from the Steelers sounds about right.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Yeah. I hate admitting that, but you are right.
Speaker 4 (32:55):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Let me do a quick break and we'll come back
and one more Uh.
Speaker 4 (32:58):
We'll visit with Billy Gardell here life from Los Angeles, California,
with his least you could do is turn the lights
on on your Christmas tree behind you. She looked like him.
Speaker 3 (33:07):
Man, Listen, that comes on automatically at seven am. It's
six forty two out here. That starts rolling. Everything lights
up on a timer at seven am. It becomes a
winter wonderland. Just as Patty walks down the steps and
she goes, did you make the coffee?
Speaker 1 (33:24):
Does the train start at seven two? No?
Speaker 3 (33:27):
No, the training you have to put on manually. I'm
only allowed to play with that after four because she
doesn't like the noise.
Speaker 4 (33:33):
Do you put the liquid smoke in the thing so
that it blows smoke when it goes around.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
It not only blows liquid smoke, but it smells like
hot cocoa.
Speaker 4 (33:41):
Oh mine would smell like something else, but hot cocoa
is also good. Those days are over, so it's hood if.
Speaker 10 (33:48):
You're dribbling on the steering wheel that he's doing his job.
Chad Tyson rocks Pittsburgh weekday afternoons on DV. He also
has a reloading cut from the DV Morning Show and
Sports News after Noons with Chad Tyson on dv E.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
It's the DV Morning Show.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
Our buddy Tad Whistle hanging out with us here at
live in studio and Billy Gardell live from Los Angeles, California.
And you know, I told you during the break you
don't have to come on with us in the morning
when you have a late night. And you had another
one of them late nights last night.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
He was on.
Speaker 13 (34:25):
Stage, had a good show. Yeah, who was on the
stage of the pretty good crew. And first of all,
I like coming on in the morning. I don't want
to torch you guys in the afternoon. One thing you learn,
never torture radio people in the afternoon. The only time,
they have to themselves, so I wouldn't do that. But
last night I was at the Improva had a great show.
Speaker 4 (34:42):
Man.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
It was like the it was like the Way Back Machine.
Speaker 4 (34:45):
It was.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
It was Me, Darryl Hammond, Arsenio Hall, and Nicki Glazier
popped out.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Oh man.
Speaker 3 (34:50):
So that was a really good show them Prova last night.
I was really glad to be a part of it
because this weekend I had a tough one. I was
at a casino. Me and Joey O'Connell from pen Hills
went up to a casino in Susanville, California. And to
get there, man, it was planes, trains and automobiles. We
had to fly into Reno and then drive ninety miles
up into this little town of twelve thousand.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
Where this casino was.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
And we had a classic O'Connell Gardell moment because afterwards
we were trying to get.
Speaker 4 (35:18):
Something to eat and there's nothing open but to drive
through it.
Speaker 3 (35:21):
We were going back and forth about, well, there's a
Burger King and they got onion rings, but there's a
Wendy's and that's probably a better burger.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
So we had them both like it was the old days.
Speaker 3 (35:32):
That right, because we went through Wendy's and got the
burger and Joe didn't want to get fries, so we
got the baked potato. Yeah, And then we drove across
the street into the Burger King and as we pulled
up to the window, he had the potato from Wendy's
in his hands. While we were eating that. We had
a bag of Wendy's while we were ordering Burger King.
(35:53):
It's a good thing we're not on boar all the
time together, That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (35:57):
So you like butching sun dance knocking off two safes
and one run. I think we can knock them both
down if we go. Now, who are those guys? Weren't
the tights?
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Pot where the tights?
Speaker 4 (36:12):
But I know Christmas is like your time, Like this
is your holiday.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
There are Thanksgivings.
Speaker 4 (36:18):
My time.
Speaker 3 (36:19):
That's my kickoff is Thanksgiving, that's my time.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
But you kick off Christmas Thanksgiving.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
I do.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
I do.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
I put the tree up and the train all that
starts the day before Thanksgiving at my house and I
try to and I'll run it until Patty goes, okay,
take it down. So I think I got her to
January sixteenth once.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
That's my record. That's as far out as I got it.
Have you started watching Christmas movies yet?
Speaker 3 (36:42):
I have?
Speaker 4 (36:43):
Yeah, I got a few. I did have.
Speaker 3 (36:44):
Yeah, I'm like you. I pop them on and I
like the one on Yeah, me too. I don't like
the newer stuff. And I of course, as we get
closer to the holiday, we have a schedule like Christmas
Eve in this house. For the last twenty years, Will's
entire life is the Polar Express and then die Hard.
We don't believe it's Christmas in this house until Hans
(37:04):
Kruberg goes off the KNOCKNA tell me plasm that that
signifies Christmas for me? And uh, And then leading up
to it, we like to we like to put some
of our classics on. I got to watch the the
Charlie Brown Christmas. Got to watch.
Speaker 4 (37:18):
The fiftieth or fiftieth anniversary? Is it the sixtieth anniversary
of Charlie Brown?
Speaker 1 (37:24):
I don't know. I sent it to you earlier.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
Abby.
Speaker 1 (37:25):
It's like, Uh, that's how listen.
Speaker 3 (37:27):
That's how Patty got me to wear that Apple watch
thing because it monitors my heart. I gotta check my
KG once in a while. That's how she got that
Apple watch on my wrists. She's like, look, you could
put Snoopy on the front of it. You like snoopy.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
So they do like snoopy.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
That's how I ended up with my Apple. I like Snoopy.
Like she jumps into the leafs right after he raked it.
I don't know why he does that. It's baffling to me.
Speaker 4 (37:53):
That whole the whole story of that Christmas, the Charlie
Brown Christmas, is crazy too, Like they I think Coca
Cola paid for it originally, and they didn't want that
biblical aspect of it at the end, you know where
he like reads the Bible passage, which just think about that,
Like sixty years ago, they're like, oh, we don't want
to be overly religious. Now they'd be like, there needs
(38:14):
to be more Bible.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
We need lots more Bible in there.
Speaker 4 (38:20):
They're gonna get that.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
They're gonna get the guys from Stuff Park to add
a bunch of characters. Car is gonna join the Peanuts gang.
Speaker 4 (38:31):
I love the Peanuts. It was it was such like
a hilarious group, comfortable, but it like it had a
weird way of representing all kinds of different people in
the archetype of these these little kids representing all those
different archetypes. A slob guy, exactly, every crew has got
a slob guy. That's a big pen. You got big pen.
(38:51):
That's exactly right.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Yeah, that guy's a mess.
Speaker 3 (38:54):
The best, the best, the best pig Pen one is
the Halloween one where everybody's dressed as a ghost and
he's walking. Pig Pen is in his dirt, still following him.
He's like, they're never going to recognize me, and like, hey,
pig Pen, you're feilthy disgusting.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
You're gross disgusting.
Speaker 8 (39:13):
How'd you like to be Charles Schultz's buddy who it's like,
obviously based on you.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
Thanks for putting me in there. I guess.
Speaker 3 (39:25):
I feel the church the truth. I had to tell you, Sambo,
you know, you know he's like, what is which one?
Speaker 4 (39:32):
Am?
Speaker 1 (39:32):
I am? I? Uh am? I lies? No, Well I'm
not Franklin.
Speaker 4 (39:37):
I know. Yeah, he's got the horny girl, He's got
the two lesbians.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
I mean, there's everybody is represented.
Speaker 4 (39:47):
In the in the depressive loser that is Charlie Brown.
It is funny that like this is the second lesbian,
Marcy and Pepperman Patty and Patty.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
She literally.
Speaker 3 (40:03):
Yeah, yeah, I think, I think, I think, I think.
I think Marci is a young version of Thelma or
Velma on Scooby Doo visually. Yes, you could, you could
tie that together, right, she could be Vlma as a kid.

Here's Tom Opperman.
Speaker 14 (44:19):
The Steelers took over first place in the ANFC nors
Sunday defeating the Ravens twenty seven to twenty two in
Baltimore in a game that the Steelers were outgained and
out possessed, but came up with more plays.
Speaker 4 (44:27):
Than the big moments to escape Maryland with a win.
Speaker 14 (44:30):
A couple of those big moments came on the defensive
side of the ball and were authored by cornerback James Pierre,
linebacker Patrick Queen, and outside linebacker Alex Highsmith. James Pierre,
who has been a pleasant surprise for the Steelers this
year at corner, made an impressive one handed interception of
Lamar Jackson in the first half for the game's only turnover,
which the Steelers would convert into three points. Patrick Queen
came up with a huge pass breakup on tight end
(44:51):
Mark Andrews on fourth down with the Ravens at the
Steelers goal line threatening to take the lead late in
the fourth quarter, and he also chipped in seven tackles
while clearly playing through an injury.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
But Alex Heismith was perhaps.
Speaker 14 (45:01):
The man of the match for the Steelers on defense,
having seven tackles, three tackles for loss, two quarterback hits,
and the walk off sack of Lamar Jackson to steal
the victory for Pittsburgh. It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows
for the Steelers defense, though, as they surrendered over two
hundred yards rushing for the second straight week. And seeing
as the Steelers next opponent, the Miami Dolphins, just ran
for two hundred and thirty nine yards this past Sunday
(45:21):
and that's something that Steelers need to improve and in
a hurry, I'm Tom Opferman with the Steelers Report.
