Eliminator. It's a very exciting,very simple game that Kevin says it has
been improved from last time, andI wouldn't even I thought that's possible because

(01:04):
it was about perfect. But it'sfunny and if you want to play,
you can play with us, playwith me, Danny and we'll all go

that, you probably know someone wholikes Dave. Yeah. Well, we

(01:27):
just don't need any of that negativitytowards the Dave Matthews Band today, when

most popular bands. Just scarred forlife. No, they'll get kicked in

ain't just us because we don't knowanything about it. We got Brody coming
in. Yeah. The wing Nutoff the top rope a popular demand.

(02:13):
Yeah, listeners want more Brody.I know every time he's on, they're
like, someone give Brody a show, And Lord knows, I've tried,
if I had any pull around here, you have a Saturday wrestling hour every
single weekend, and I think they'dbe awesome. People like wrestling, but
you don't have it. No,I don't. I've suggested it enough times,
No dice, But nine am,tell a friend that likes wrestling,

(02:35):
right, if you're listening you don'tcare, I don't know, text your
buddy and be like, these idiotsare cann do it. Wrestle Mania preview

am is the eliminator. Seven pointthirty seven am is the scuttle Bud.
And I think we should start todaywith audio. Let's take a look back

(02:59):
at the week that was in thenews, right, and that the best
play is that the way we shouldstart. I think we should. I
mean having options I could do,but I think we should start there.
This is what happened in the newsthis week. Drag race. Who done
it was Travis Kelce's Super Bowl teammatebehind the wheel then stranded on an island

(03:25):
and can join twins' secret wedding.Then dogs eat car, plus phony tree
trimmers, plus pink pog and aspeakeasy dicking finger blast. I think it
sounds pretty good. You think afinger blast sounds pretty good, Julie,
No, it's talking about the chicken, Jeff. That was an HR violation.

(03:49):
What you did? Talk about violations? Son of a bitch? Then
blown away by a tornado and shemade it to as on time. Totally
crazy? Whatever happened to singer PonnieTyler Ben the hole in the wall,

(04:09):
gag and brick attacks, plus eatsa lie, the porch pirate wrapped in
a garbage bag. Then see thebabies? What I think every week?

(04:32):
I could claim that's the best ever, but I think that one is the
best. Save the baby. Thendid he say plus dog eats car?
Yeah, dog, he eats car? What about and then ping pong?
Then huh the porch pirate wrapped ina garbage bag? Brick attacks? What

(04:58):
is going on? Addition, it'sthe greatest show because they are like serious
too when they throw it to thecorrespondence out in the field, they're very
serious. Do you ever watch thewhole shows? Never it's just the first
there's no reason. Yeah, well, how much of the car did dog

(05:18):
eat? All? Right? Nowwe need to follow up? Yeah,
dog ate car? Can you imaginehow underwhelming the stories must be compared to
the teases? Oh my god,Yes, that's right out the gate.
Right out the gate, you getdrum phill, I guess you. And

(05:42):
there's deb hosted by you. Hearit again. I'm absolutely fine hearing it
all again. Time drag race?Who done it? Was? Travis Kelsey
super Bowl teammate behind the wheel,then stranded on an island and conjoined twins,

(06:04):
secret wedding. Then dogs eat carplus phony tree trimmers, plus ping
pong and a speakeasy finger blast.I think it sounds pretty good. You
think a finger blast sounds pretty good, Julie, No, it's talking about
the chicken, Jeff. That wasan HR violation. What you did,

(06:26):
talk like son of a bitch?Then blown away by a tornado and she
made it to class on time,Plus a lid blitz frenzy, whatever happened
to singer Funny Tyler. Then thehole in the wall gag and brick attacks,

(06:51):
plus it's a lie, the bloodwage pirate wrapped in a garbage bag.
And then the Bob that's wonderful,That is amazing. One more time,

(07:13):
How sweet, Julie, cause you'retalking about some delicious meal it was
she's talking about the chicken. No, she's talking about the new ballpark rejected
food item, the chicken finger glassthey didn't make the cab glass. That
sounds pretty good. And then there'skeVs Hand. I'll just say that that

(07:33):
was last Friday's segment with them,and Julie got everything that she deserved in
that segment because she took things alot of different directions, talking about how
she wants to be a Guilf oneday. But she didn't know that it
was Grandma. She thought it wasa girl. Oh well, and I

(07:54):
was like, well, that's weird. The elf part still held true there,
right, Yeah. Uh. Ifeel like there's so much innocence with
Julie. But maybe she's just windingall of us up at all the time.
I always wonder too, And Ithink that's part of the thing,
is like we're in our head aboutit because and then Grooves just barraged her

(08:16):
with all of her jokes, Imean, all of her drops of just
out of context, the things shesaid, out of context. Dirty Julie.
She's the one who came on ourairwaves and said Mexi dips and chicks
chips the wrong way. I reallydid it too, though. Let's move
on. Oh man, good job, good job, good job. She

(08:39):
Rice decided that he would go aheadand speak now. And he was driving
the Lambea. We do nothing,so there obviously found proof. Yeah,
so his little open ended you know, I take responsibility my role for my
role without saying what his role was. The lawyers put that out there.

(09:03):
Clearly proof was found that he wasdriving. So now he has to cop
to it. What a weird,just little game. So the legal world,
well, yeah, because they figuredout what this is everything, what
what hurts you the least? OrI suppose, but it was a least
a rented Lambeau car, right,and part of that agreement, I think

(09:26):
he had to be the one drivingat all times. So they may have
just done the math on all right, you're gonna get in deep s for
all this, but at least you'renot gonna have to buy this two hundred
and fifty thousand dollars car. Itmight just be a math equation hitting run,
but you're insured. Right, aslong as you're driving, you're not
fully responsible. And then maybe likeplus, look the video, they're gonna

(09:48):
know you're in the car. Likeit's not worth saying you weren't in it.
But it took him four days todecide all right, he was in
the car. His attorney, Roycewest Is he had a fifteen minute press
coverage to day. He said thatRice has reached out to the victims and
will do everything in his power tomake everything right. He said his young

(10:11):
made a mistake. The twenty threeyear old's never done anything or never been
involved in anything like this. Okay, is that true? You know what?
I don't I don't know. RememberI actually thought there was something from
back in college. But I couldbe thinking of another guy because there's you
know, all that stuff comes outbefore the tell you what kind of unfair

(10:31):
to all that stuff that comes outtoo? Did jimmy perception of but you
can't leave you know that everyday manis thinking, Oh, he's an NFL
player, he's rich, he canafford this. This is this is just
a scratch in the surface. No, not really, this is a guy
on a rookie contract. This casecould break him second round pick. Yeah,

(10:54):
absolutely, especially when you've rented aLamborghini and you were leasing and renting
a corps or or own the corvette. Uh. Total guarantees of his for
his contract is three point five million. Yeah, you know, and if
you're in half of that, buyif you have to buy a quarter million
dollar do oosuv? That is awell And then think about the restitution he's

(11:18):
going to have to dish out tothese victims. This is going to end
in a lot from some civil suits. Yeah, he's gonna have to pay
it, pay them off medical bills. He's got medical bills if there are
any. You got to pay yourattorney. Not only not to mention the
guaranteed money that he got, he'sonly probably after tax is an agent is
only going to clear half of that. So guys, maybe got you know,

(11:39):
a contract worth about a million anda half dollars guaranteed, Go catch
a hundred balls with Patrick Mahomes nextyear. This could absolutely break him right
now. Yeah. Well, well, yeah, you don't drive one hundred
and forty and it's North Central Expressway. It's six point twenty on Saturday.
Aymen, what in the world arewe doing? Man? So yeah,

(12:00):
good to finally know I want todo I think I want to do this
just because it is Friday and it'skind of a new music day, right,
new music drops. I'm not gonnabeat you that guys down too much,
but there are three things out ofit. Is this billboard, Kevin,
It's not billboard Billboard, Kevin,there's no need to do bill board
billboard. Can it's on the BillboardChartshet Black Keys dropped a new album today,

(12:22):
Torn on how I feel about thempost like, I think they're a
good band, right, but Ijust think they're almost turning into like the
Foo Fighters, and like, hey, we put the same album out all
the time, but I just kindof like it. There was a each
album they've had over the last tenyears. I'll sit there and go,
man, there's like four great songson this album. So this is not

(12:43):
a bad per in today's Oh absolutelynot. This is this is Nowhere by
the Black Keys dropped today. Theycome up Witch to know. I'm gonna

(13:05):
pack my bats to know, gonnatell my friend to know. I've been
funny to know because then it wasbetter than game. The nice Spear in
the out of Spain, don't discobe so get it to you into the

(13:28):
top of the wind going that's finebecause this is all right, a little
driving music. Maybe you're maybe you'rebowling. I think that's good for bowling.

(13:54):
I don't want to hear that whenI'm bowling. I need my Rihanna
when I'm bowling. Their album covers, uh just bowling. Okay, Now,
we last Friday did preview the Beyoncealbum as it dropped, and I
had a little drive over the weekendto the hometown, so I listened to
the whole thing, and I did. We didn't play the best song on

(14:16):
the album, the best song onthe album. We played like two interludes.
We we played two interstitials things thataren't even really songs. Yeah,
we're just real quick about it.We didn't know what we were playing.
It just drops, so we're justkind of like hitting playoff. We yelled
at such God people did hammer that. I also took Simon for a long

(14:37):
walk and listened to i'd say eighteighty eighty five percent of the album.
I've never in my life listened toa Beyonce album in full or anywhere close
to it. I mean nothing notto like you gotta go out not like
it. Yeah, you have toactively be trying. And it's not my
whatever genre. I don't know thecountryside or I just don't know Beyonce,

(14:58):
but catchy as hell fun really welland I think this is the best song
on this album and it's coming out. When are you gonna play? So

(15:22):
sweet? I give you kisses inthe back seat, A whisper secrets in
the backy, you make me cry, you make me happy happy my lists
to consider tells it. Then youstomp it out out and now then what's

(15:46):
going You kiss my neck? We'vebeen hurting, but it's happy out.

(16:12):
Yeah. I think it's great.I love it. And it takes another
couple of parts, a couple ofsections that are a little difference that I
like. You know what it soundslike to me? It sounds like kind
of sounds like Fleetwood Mac. Okay, it sounds like something that was familiar.
Yeah, that probably is it reallydry Fleetwood Mac drums, and I
don't know, there's something really coolabout that. It's kind of like for

(16:33):
any album, it takes a fewspins. But yeah, and I probably
won't, but I think if Ilisten to this whole album, like three
times, I might listen to itlike a lot more for the rest of
my life, like at times,Catch You as Home Man Outstanding, Yeah,
that's Bodyguard, like that one BeyonceWell talking Heads, Yeah, right,

(16:55):
the tribute album coming out and Istill don't know when, but they've
been kind of secretly just kind ofhere's one. Here's one bunch of artists
or doing the Talking Heads tribute album. Paramore did the first one with burning
down the House. Kind of aguy. He just did a uh.
I think he just did a thingwith Doja Cat. His name is Tezo
Touchdown. He did making Flippy Floppy, which is great. But today's new

(17:21):
one comes from someone I haven't heardabout in a long time. Lord is
gonna be on this Talking Heads tributealbum. And here's the third thing that's
been dropped from that album. Ithink you guys will like this. Oh

(17:56):
dangerous the money by thinking about that, that's everything. We all just think

(18:27):
about it, our grandparents had.If someone's a million multi millionaire as a
result of Billy big Mouth, thinkabout Tony Soprano being haunted by that thing.
Yeah, the move It's head didn'ta j get it for him for

(18:48):

(28:04):
and greet. Oh oh, becausedude, all week when they were pubbing
that, I was mean on whatdoes it look like? I guess I
thought it'd be in one of thoselike the little tequila club down under the
thing, Yeah, but it wasless formal than that. But they have
the two guys who won and skinwalking them down, sit in front row
during shoot around and there's like kindof nobody in there, so they're just

(28:27):
wide eyed, and then they kindof go to the belly of the Beast
down the hallway on the way tothe locker room, and there's Luca.
I don't know if you want tosee how it looks. It's kind of
neat. That is cool, thelittle time lapse version of it. Yeah,
And then because it's gotta be soea, like Luca, how's it
work? You know, they're like, all right, I'll grab Lucas.

(28:47):
Somebody had to grab Lucas. Hisskin is sort of out front, but
you know they knew he was,they told him, but it's not like
Luca's thinking about it. Oh yeah, comes over, taps them up.
They get a picture, and thenLucas signed a couples it looks like in
a basketball card. And then it'skind of over probably one minute, you
know, definitely quit. Yeah,but the two guys are still kind of

(29:08):
like fro you know, like,yeah, just a picture and assigned jersey.
That's money. Ben said too thatthese are guys who only they came
to the station because of this contestthey were happening. They didn't, you
know, and now they're in andthat it after a few days, they
love it, you know. Hegot out the part of the video where

(29:30):
where Ben nervously saw Luca and treatedhim like the guy in the Ella Cool
J commercials Hi, I'm Keith andputs his hand out there for a shake.
Hi, I'm Keith. Turn around, be calm, don't say anything.
