I'm fine because I feel like I'm actually and social.

Speaker 4 (02:22):
Media is a part of it.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
But I'm doing more now and I'm like kind of
more excited about like my life and our family what
I am doing more now than I even when I
was playing football professionally. Like it sounds weird, but like
I think it's just I've gotten older. I've like like
I want to do more and I want to you know,
And anyway, just hitting forty it hurt.

Speaker 4 (02:40):
It hurt, you know, like on the inside for a
few days and a few.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
Months a minute, and then I got over it. And
now you know, forty one will be nothing, and then
like fifty.

Speaker 4 (02:48):
Comes and I don't know, all hell will break loose.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
But and you'll get there.

Speaker 2 (02:53):

forty eight. And it's one of those things where you're
like the other day someone says I'm I was.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Like, holy shit, I'm like this freaking close to fifty.
Are we joking right now?

Speaker 3 (03:07):

just a number, but yeah, you're your two. I tell
my wife is thirty hell is she thirty six? She'll
be thirty seven always make fun. I'm like, you're almost forty,
You're almost forty. She's like, you got to stop that.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
When she goes to like fifty, You're gonna have to
just pause on that and be like, you know what,
I'm getting all those in before she's forty, and then
we won't say anything before sturn fifty.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
I'm already planning her forty birthday, like I'm trying. She's like,

pretty epic.

Speaker 4 (03:44):
I know she did it. Anyway, she did an amazing
job at forty.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
It it was great, and now I am an influencer apparently.

Speaker 4 (03:51):
Which I think is hilarious. But it's been fun, you know.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
It's like kind of like kind of reinventing myself a
little bit and having fun and.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
Just kind of entering that, you know, the family with
the kids.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
And we wait, let's let's rewind. Let's take some steps
back on how you got here. So you played college football, yes,
and you played where you played that?

Speaker 4 (04:15):
I played I played that? Do you don't know where
I played?

Speaker 1 (04:19):
I thought I knew it was that USC, not your question.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
Mammy, I'm no. So, yeah, I went to USC. I
grew up in Orange County, California. Stay at home at the.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
Sc oh so this is home home for you out there.

Speaker 3 (04:35):
Yeah, well we're in Manhattan Beach, but yeah, home is
forty five minutes away. Okay, So I went to USC.
We had a great run at USC. We won a
couple of championships and it was awesome. And then I
got drafted by the Arizona Cardinals.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Wait, sick, don't speed past. We have something in common.
We've got a couple of things in common. One, you
won the Heisman. I used to dish out the heisman
to all the dudes at the bar. So we got
that in common. But all day long, all day long.
But then, don't be past all your accolades. We're both

(05:13):
all Americans.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
Yeah, what do you know Americans?

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah? I played the other football.

Speaker 4 (05:21):
What soccer?

Speaker 2 (05:22):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (05:23):
Did you Yeah? You see?

Speaker 2 (05:25):
No, I went to Write State for a year and
then I transferred to Christian College.

Speaker 4 (05:31):
Yeah, I didn't know that about I didn't know.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
That about it most I don't tell most people. It's
just one of the it's one of those things, you know.
I stopped playing when COVID happened. That's when I stopped
playing because I played a year in the WPSL, and
then I had my son.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
Yeah, I had my son, and then you know, well
you gotta be a mom. And I'm like, okay, well
we're doing this.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
Alx Morgan had a baby and she and she plays.
She just plays. She's wrapping all the moms, soccer moms
out there.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
I think she just ran and squatted that out and
just kept running. They see even like had down time.

Speaker 4 (06:03):
She's like she's a beast.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Yes she is, all right.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
So you went to USC, won the Heisman, all American,
You get drafted.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
Tell me about that. Were you at the draft? For
you at home?

Speaker 4 (06:17):
I went to the draft. So at that time, the
draft was always in New York. I was at the
Radio City Music Hall, which is pretty cool. So I went.

Speaker 3 (06:26):
And that time they only invited a handful like five
or six. So like if you if you knew you
were going to be pretty much first round or you
know whatever, it was, top five, top ten, you went.
Now they invite like forty people and it's this whole
experience for different kids. Even kids will get drafted the
second round, which is which is great. So they've really

(06:47):
kind of just added a bigger like it's become more
of a spectacle that it will become. But yeah, I
was there with my family, me and my agent at
the time, and I got I got picked tenth overall.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
Did you know, oh, like before you went, you knew
you were gonna go first round for sure?

Speaker 3 (07:04):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (07:05):
Yeah, I kind of knew. I knew I was gonna
So it's pretty interesting.

Speaker 3 (07:08):
Like I thought leading up to the draft, there was
a couple of teams that I thought I would I
would get drafted by in the top ten. It was
in Arizona. I never met with Arizona prior to the
combine and all this stuff that you go through the
pre draft process. I met with the New York Jets,
who picked fourth that year. I met with the Tennessee
Titans who picked third that year. And I met with

(07:32):
Oakland Raiders when they were in Oakland and they picked seven.
Those are one of.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
Those three places I thought I would go.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Once Oakland didn't pick me at seven, I was like,
holy shit, where am I gonna I have no idea
am I gonna fall? So, like I don't know, if
you've watched the draft. But the year prior Aaron Rodgers,
he was supposed to go like one or two. He
fell like to twenty third.

Speaker 4 (07:54):
To Green Bay.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
Obviously Aaron Rodgers is great, but like he sat in
that room, which felt like probably a half a day,
and the cameras are on you, and you're like, it's
it's kind of embarrassing. It's just like this whole deal.
I was kind of dealing with that. Now I got
picked to ten, which wasn't that bad, but like I
was dealing with that for like an hour.

Speaker 4 (08:11):
I'm like, I don't know where I'm going to go.
My agent was kind of scrambling wall.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
Was your agent there as well? Or on the phone? Okay, yeah, So.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
You're like you're like in a green room with you know,
big tables and you're just with your your people who
you brought. There's like there was like six or seven
big tables and each person, there's six of us that
came that year. They had their crew. And then when
you get drafted, you know, you get up, you know,
you go on the stage, you hold up your jersey.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
And then and then you're like literally on a flight
like two hours later to the city that drafted you.
And you're doing wow press coffin. Yeah, it's pretty it's
pretty crazy.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
So anyway, I got picked by Arizona and played four
years there, and then I played in Houston for the.

Speaker 4 (08:50):
Texans for two years, which was awesome.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
And then my last season was in Oakland in twenty
thirteen and then uh, injuries. Just mentally, I just kind
of tapped out. I was I was just over football.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
So I played seven years, which is great.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
I met my wife, actually, Josie, the year I retired,
and that was part of the reason why I kind
of retired.

Speaker 4 (09:10):
I'm like, I just met my wife. I'm gonna I'm gonna,
you know, I'm gonna do this.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
How did you How do you meet her? How did
you meet her?

Speaker 4 (09:19):
Ether?

Speaker 3 (09:19):
I freaking pursued this woman like nobody's business.

Speaker 4 (09:23):
Okay, she wanted no part of me and.

Speaker 3 (09:28):
My best well, one of my really close girlfriends at
the time who I went to s C with was
closer to me and than she was with Josie. But
she was friends with both of us and like just
two different worlds. And because at the time Josie was
an actress, okay, and.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
What was she what was she in at that point?

Speaker 3 (09:47):
She was on at that point, what was she doing?

Speaker 4 (09:52):
She was she.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
She had made make it or break it and then.

Speaker 4 (09:57):
Make it her make it. But she was young.

Speaker 3 (09:59):
She was like eighteen nineteen. That was like right when
she was in college four years and then the.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
Mentalist she on that the mentalist was when we dated.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
Yeah, so that was that was her. She was doing
movies and stuff here and there.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
So you saw her and you were like, I gotta
get with this woman.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
I saw her the year prior and I was like,
who is that and can I get her number? And
Alexis was like, oh, that's my girl, Josie. She got
a boyfriend at time whatever, and like damn. Fast forward
a year. It was a Memorial Day. We went to
the same barbecue like every Memorial Day in Santa Monica.
And fast forward and my girl Alexis called me a
couple months prior, like, hey, Maddie, you come in and

(10:40):
she was like my homegirl. She's like, mat you come
in to the barbecue, Like yeah, maid. She goes, oh,
guess what. By the way, Josie's coming and she's single.

Speaker 4 (10:45):
I was like, yes, I will be there, and by
the way, I have zero game whatsoever.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
I mean, you're wearing a goated hat right now. I
have a feeling that you might not have that one.

Speaker 4 (10:56):
No, no, this is like I need to wear this
to feel cool.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Okay, So you get to the barbecue.

Speaker 3 (11:05):
So the best part is I get there and I like,
I say hi, I introduced myself up and that that
was really it.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
And then and I am not, like.

Speaker 3 (11:15):
I just not. I've never been that guy that was like, oh,
can I like like to go.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
Up to a girl at the ball? I'm not actually
quitch shy, to be honest with you, like came to
those things. And anyway, I hit.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
Up Alexis and said, hey, give me can you give
me Josie's number? I'm just gonna hit her up and
see and she goes for sure. So she asked jose
to say, hey, Matt wants her number, can I give
it to you?

Speaker 4 (11:37):
Give it to him?

Speaker 3 (11:38):
And Josie was like, absolutely not. And at the time,
at the time hurt. Well. There was a lot of
reason at the time, her father, her father had just
passed away like four months prior, so obviously she was
going through a lot of stuff emotionally, and she didn't
want to date anybody and just dealing with that, which
totally understood.

Speaker 4 (11:58):
Well, Alexis gave me her.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
Number anyway, She's like, she's kind of like f and dude,
here's her number.

Speaker 4 (12:05):
So I know, I let she's the beast. So I
was like, all right, I called.

Speaker 3 (12:12):
I called her and she later told me she's like
the fact that you called me because I called her.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
No one calls on the phone hardly.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
Right text her.

Speaker 3 (12:23):
I called her and I left her a message. I said, hey,
it's Matt. You know I'd love to like take you
out sometime whatever. I just shot my shot. Didn't really
think anything of it, and I think she called me
back like three days later, like I'm like, this is over.
And I got a random call and like the first
time that on the phone we talked.

Speaker 4 (12:41):
We talked like two or three hours, like super random.

Speaker 3 (12:44):
You know this first time you're talking, it just that
it goes by so fast, just constant communication talking.

Speaker 4 (12:51):
And then yeah, and then we then.

Speaker 3 (12:54):
I took her out a couple of dates and then
the best part along within it.

Speaker 4 (12:59):
With the best part with like it took out four dates.
It was going great.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
I knew and I say this and I always say this,
like I knew I was going to marry her.

Speaker 4 (13:07):
I definitely knew. I tell her and like I told
her that she didn't feel the same way. But I
was like, if I can get this girl to like
me and just put her guard down, it's a rap.
I got her. It is a rap.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
And four dates and we're like the best we live.
I was living by the.

Speaker 4 (13:28):
Beach, closer to the beach at the time.

Speaker 3 (13:30):
We did a bike ride down to like her most appear,
had some drinks, drove back totally awesome, like fourth day,
and then she like essentially broke it off with me.

Speaker 4 (13:40):
I was I was heartbroken inside, but I was like,
I was like, what do you mean, Like, okay, can
we still be friends?

Speaker 3 (13:45):
I was literally like out of sight, out of mind,
I'm not gonna do this. I'm gonna still text her like, oh,
we'll be friends. I just played it off and I
just kept kind of like I was persistent, and finally
a lot of stuff happened, but finally.

Speaker 4 (13:59):
She just gave in and she told me she's like,
I like this guy, what am I doing?

Speaker 3 (14:03):
She was just playing so freaking hard to get and
I was like, drop the act and let's go.

Speaker 4 (14:11):
I knew I knew. Yeah, I knew. I knew because
I was like all in, I'm like I'm done.

Speaker 2 (14:16):
I was, So is it true because they say that
guys know very soon whether or not this is the
person or not.

Speaker 3 (14:24):
Honestly, and I talk all the time. It was it
was for me now there was like you know, I knew.
For me, I was like, I'm going to marry this woman.
I totally knew that.

Speaker 4 (14:32):
Now we had like you know, like in anything, like
we had.

Speaker 3 (14:35):
To go through a lot of stuff and just live together,
work things out. So maybe this that, you know, like
just normal stuff. I always knew, and I tell her
all the time like I just knew, Like when I
saw her, I told her to day, I'm like, I'm
gonna marry this woman.

Speaker 4 (14:49):
Its long as she just like she lets me in,
you know. And I guess she was doing a lot
so so you weren't just.

Speaker 2 (14:56):
Gonna drag her to a chapel like you're marrying me regardless. Woman,
you were like, okay, I need to.

Speaker 4 (15:01):
Eleven years later, you know, married, We dated.

Speaker 3 (15:05):
We dated for a long time before we got married
because she she quit acting and went to law school.
Was like I'm going to become a lawyer at like
twenty nine thirty.

Speaker 4 (15:15):
So we dated.

Speaker 3 (15:16):
We're engaged for two years basically because she was in
law school, been married for five five years. In May,
it was so we've been together a long time. But yeah,
it was I knew it. I just had to get her.
She was just stubborn and she's still stubborn.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
But you know, but I'm sure you love that about her.

Speaker 4 (15:35):
She you know what, it's interesting, we are like we
are polar opposite. She's one Cuban from.

Speaker 3 (15:43):
Miami, like fiery everything you would imagine.

Speaker 4 (15:48):
I am, you know, as white as they come from.

Speaker 3 (15:51):
Orange County, Californy, very very very laid back kind of
like very laid back kind of like we're like two opposites.

Speaker 4 (15:59):
But that's, you know, obviously what works for us.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
Wait, did you guys do the TikTok where it's like
my husband's real quiet and calm and won't be confrontational,
and then she comes out.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
We're like swing, We have a lot.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
We have a lot of funny ones at that because
it's like married to a Latin woman, is is?

Speaker 4 (16:21):
I mean, it's fun. It's a lot, but it's fun.
It's great. So we we we mess around with that
one a lot.

Speaker 2 (16:26):
I love it when I see the two of you
guys together, it is pretty funny because you can tell
that you guys have that fun, spicy but fun and
lighthearted relationship and not like we yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:38):
We really like it's interesting just because, like I said earlier,
like kind of trying to like, you know, like reinventing
ourselves having fun with this. And and she, I mean,
she's she's I mean, as outgoing as they come. She's
like creative, she's an actress at heart. She's like theater
all these things. And like we love like we love
our boys, our family, We laugh at ourselves, we have

(17:00):
fun doing it, and.

Speaker 4 (17:03):
It's been a nice kind of balance for us to
kind of have fun. And also like for me, like
the one thing I always get to from social now
is like the relatability.

Speaker 3 (17:11):
You know, a lot of a lot of like my
i'd say following, but like fans are sports football and
they've seen me play football in this and then I
think now just being a dad, you know, and just
like I'm I.

Speaker 4 (17:23):
Mean again, I'm a normal guy.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
But being a dad and raising three boys and being
married to my wife, like there's a lot of fun
there's a lot of stuff.

Speaker 4 (17:30):
There that's relatable to a lot of people that kind
of just knew me as a football player.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
So kind of like peeling back those layers has been
fun for me just to do because I like giving
people like, hey man, I am like, dude, Like I
got a four and two year old who just like
give me gray hair every day.

Speaker 4 (17:47):
I have a.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
Seventeen year old who's in high school, and like I'm
having conversations with him about seventeen year old stuff. I'm
change in diapers, you.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
Know, and birth control. You're like, here's your birth control.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
My two year old the other morning like took a
dump and his diaper in the night and just and
stuck his fingers in his diaper and put it all over.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
So he's an artist as well, okay.

Speaker 4 (18:13):
And he's just laughing.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
I'm just like like this is like, this is crazy.

Speaker 4 (18:18):
But anyway, we're having fun, so that's awesome.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
It's crazy how things turned.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
Because I played, I coached, I coached in high school,
I coached in college, like all of those things.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
So my brain was so focused on soccer.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
It was like athlete, athlete, athlete, And I remember my
son I had coached a men's game in a women's
college game, back to back, and then I went and
got induced that night.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
They're like, wait, you just did what.

Speaker 2 (18:45):

mind is somewhere different, and that's I feel like, how
you approach parenthood. Right, You're like, all right, I got
a little zone defense over here.

it'sude just shifted and it's like, oh crap, no, see my.

Speaker 2 (19:41):
He has my personality. So he's he's super quick witted, like,
oh yeah, the other day he said something, you're in
for it. Oh, it's it's already, it's already on. I'm like, oh, Lord,
Like I was telling him, I said, okay, this summer.
He is ten years old, he'll be eleven in October.
He's like five two five three. Okay, buddy, I played basketball.
I almost played in college too, but it's hard doing

(20:03):
to sports. So we're gonna go ahead and let you
try basketball and see if you.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
Like that as well.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
And he's just, why are you forcing me? I'm like, okay, listen, sir.
I'm like, you're gonna do summer camps, you're gonna do soccer.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
You new basketball? Well, I mean it's just a mixed bag.
I guess if I gotta do one.

Speaker 2 (20:21):
I'm like, okay, Grandpa, what does he like to do?

Speaker 4 (20:25):
Because is he not an athlete?

Speaker 2 (20:27):
He likes So here's what's funny. He's extremely stubborn, like
I am. So when I put him in soccer early on,
he was that damn kid and hit. My ex husband
coaches soccer too, like super high up whatever. He is
the kid that gets in the damn goal and is
throwing the goals around and like playing in the pennies

(20:47):
and like not paying attention.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
I'm like, I was like, you can't do this. I'm like,
I cannot sit. So I was like.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
The side, oh my, I was like this close to
going out and coaching, and of course on the side
that I'm like, given the face of like get your
ass out of that goal right now, you know, like
gritting my teeth, I'm like I can't. So I told
his dad, I'm like, you either need to take him
because I'm not taking him because he's not paying any
attention whatsoever.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
So then I was like, he obviously doesn't want to
do this. We're gonna tap out. It's fine.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
And then we've just let him like any sport that
he's interested. He freaking went and played tennis this summer.
I'm like, I don't care what you do. But as
an athlete, yeah, as a parent, there's no way you're
getting through life without playing a sport to learn, especially
being an only child.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
Teamwork and everything else, I'm like, no freaking way.

Speaker 4 (21:40):
Yeah, that's it.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
It's funny, he said, I got my oldest is pretty
like a pretty high level athlete is getting recruited in
football but and my my almost four year old ball
three and a half and two.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
Here we go. They're getting recruited right now too, guys.

Speaker 4 (21:57):
Saying I'm just like as an act.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
And my wife is like, they're gonna do what they
love and if it's not sports, it's fine, and I go, yeah,
like I know, I'm just not there yet mentally, like,
and they're gonna play sports and they're and I hope
they like it and if they don't, obviously will cross
our bridge. But unfortunately they're both in it. But my
boys are so opposite. Like my four year old, it's

(22:21):
like he's super into it, but it doesn't come supernatural
for him at least right now.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
But he's just like he's still bands at times, Matt like.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
But my two year old is like, picks up a
ball and pitch it like it is just supernatural.

Speaker 4 (22:40):
It doesn't even think twice. So it's just it's my wife.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
Because we're entering kind of like the four yel it's
gonna play a little baseball this year. And honestly, I
am not like a I'm not one of those dads.
My dad wasn't that way with me. I wasn't that
way with my oldest, Like I left coaching my kids
and like teaching them, but I am not like the
yeller and screamer.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
There's okay.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
So here's the difference with us, right, someone who's had
a successful career in the sport. We don't have to
live through them. We've already been there, done that. So
I think that's the big difference of knowing Okay, I
can take a step back and I can let them
process and enjoy and all those things like the sandwich
method when they get done, build, break, build, but like
you don't need to be in their face screaming. So

(23:21):
that that's I think that's a huge difference between successful
and not.

Speaker 3 (23:26):
No for sure, and I don't but kind of like
what you said, like I just had sports are just
to me.

Speaker 4 (23:32):
They teach you so much, they're so great.

Speaker 3 (23:35):
Everything it teaches you that literally parlays into everyday life
is like a real genuine thing.

Speaker 4 (23:41):
And I just hope that for them. I hope that.
I mean, I don't know, I don't care.

Speaker 3 (23:46):
If they're good or I just I want them to
love it, have fun, but I also want them to
learn from it.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
And listen, I was pregnant, We'll see I was pregnant,
and I'm coaching out a college right men's program.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
Women's program took them both the nationals.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
Literally, the girls finish second, boys finished four, like it
was a whirlwind season.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
Get pregnant. My boys are like, he's gonna be a stud.
He's gonna be a stud. And I was like, watch
him play chess or something like that'll be his thing.
Why why two weeks ago, Matt did my son come home?

Speaker 3 (24:18):
Go?

Speaker 1 (24:19):
I learned how to play.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
Chess and I actually I was like, oh my god,
not that there's anything wrong with that. It's just nothing
wrong with that. I was just like, I think I
manifested and I think.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
I called that one. So it's fine. I'll be on
the sideline like, get that rook. I don't even know.
I don't even know how to play chess, but I'll cheer.

Speaker 4 (24:38):
Mind.

Speaker 3 (24:39):
If that's what you think of your social media like
platform and what you go for yourself.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
That's a good question, understood. He does.

Speaker 2 (24:49):
He does, so I let him kind of delegate what
he wants to do, Like if he wants to be
in a video, I'll let him be in a video.
Now it's the athlete mentality where he's like I want
to be in the video. I'm like, if we to
reshoot it? And then he's like, I don't want to
do it. Nope, you already.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
Said yes, we're in it. We're in it for the
whole like the whole video.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
But we were driving home one day and I said,
what do you want to do because for a while.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
He was like, palinontologists, paleontologists.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
Okay, a gamer and at ten, I'm like, your little brain,
I can't.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
I can't subject you to the asshole trolls. I can't
do that. Like I'm forty eight and there's days.

Speaker 2 (25:24):
Where I'm like I will punch you straight in the throat,
like you know, I bet your mom's real proud of you, right,
Like I just can't. I mean, yesterday I was looking
through some comments and someone's.

Speaker 1 (25:36):
Like, is it me or does she look like she
gained weight? And I'm like, oh god, are you joking
me right now?

Speaker 2 (25:42):
Like your mom's got to be clapping that You're like,
So I don't want to subject him to that, so
I said no. But anyway, we're driving home and I said,
what do you want to do when you get older?
And I just want to keep instilling in him. It
doesn't matter what. I don't care what you do. I
just want you happy. So I don't care if you
go and you make X amount or whatever. I hear
all these parents say, well, you've got to be a

(26:03):
doct you gotta I want you happy because I don't
want you waking up one day and miserable as hell
and wondering how you got there. So we're driving, he said,
I I'm inspired by you.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
I want to do what you do. And I'm like what.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
He's like, Mommy, you make people laugh and you make
people happy. Like that's what I want to do, is
make people happy. And I'm like, oh, like you know,
like oh my god.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
I was like what.

Speaker 2 (26:28):
But yeah, so he's even though he's only ten, like
he still is ten. But there are other things that
I'm like, Wow, you're like thinking of this like almost
in an adult way.

Speaker 1 (26:37):
So it's fun. I was talking about this on the
radio today.

Speaker 2 (26:41):
We went to the mall and I was going in
bath and body works and I walk in and the
clerk was like, oh my god, it's you. And my
son's like, oh, it's having all the time. And the
guy's like, can I get your picture? And and Cohen's like,
you know, he's siper sweet about it, because I had
to have a talk with him one time, but he's like,

(27:03):
you want to get in little body, And my son's like, nah,
I'm good on this one. And there was on time well,
and right after that there was a girl that was like,
oh my god, it's you and my son's like here
we go.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
Okay, But he does it in a fun way. Yeah,
So he's just like I love that.

Speaker 2 (27:21):
But he's also learning, which I'm sure your seventeen year
old is learning or in the middle of it's a
different world than when we grew up, Like we could
do crazy shit and no one was recording it, no
one was blasting it out. But he's learning that right
now through what I do and how I have to
handle things, and how we have to be private about
certain things, like we gotta be real careful about that stuff.

(27:43):
So that's kind of like a blessing and a curse,
a little bit of I'm glad he's learning it, but
it also I mean, think of your two and four
year old, like they're not gonna be able to do
anything in peace, Like it's gonna be literally blasted freaking everywhere. Okay,
So you're forty, so you're are you considered Jene, Yeah,

(28:05):
you're considered gen X right, where is that forty eight?

Speaker 4 (28:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (28:10):
Okay, yeah, so yeah gen X.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
Are you a true gen xer at forty where you
feel like you can still go back and play a
little bit in NFL?

Speaker 4 (28:21):
Dude, I have given up. It's God, it's so it's
so funny you say that.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
I feel like my football life was a lifetime ago,
like I.

Speaker 4 (28:32):
I and again it's it's it's just I'm in this
really weird.

Speaker 3 (28:35):
Space club because I'm on college football show for Fox,
which is great.

Speaker 4 (28:39):
So it keeps me in the game, and I love
my job. It's like the best job.

Speaker 1 (28:43):
What's the name of the show. So everyone listening, Big
Moon Kickoff.

Speaker 3 (28:47):
We're on Saturday mornings on Fox, and our first one
is we'll be at TCU. I don't know when this
is going to come out, but we'll be at TCU
for TCU Colorado, and then.

Speaker 4 (28:58):
We kind of live We kind of live in your neck,
but we kind of live in the Midwest. So we're
in Ohio bunch where, Michigan a bunch where Wisconsin.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
We cover mainly the Big ten we're all out that
way a lot. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
See, people in Ohio don't really say Michigan very much.
It's like a you know, nor they say I know,
and I'm wearing blue today.

Speaker 3 (29:18):
But I'm telling you, Ohio State, the Ohio Michigan hatred
is amazing.

Speaker 4 (29:24):
Like it is. I love it. I think it's outstanding.

Speaker 2 (29:27):
My friends won't even say it. They're like, Ischigan. I'm like,
come on, you're petty. No, I'm not.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
No, they are like Herba Meyer, coach of Vermire, actually
went to Cincinnati he coached, but he coached at Ohio State.

Speaker 4 (29:40):
He's on our show.

Speaker 3 (29:42):
And he I've heard him say Michigan one time and
it was accident and I literally was like, what did
you say?

Speaker 4 (29:51):
And he was like the team up north?

Speaker 3 (29:53):
Like he actually like he goes out of his way
to say, but it's slit.

Speaker 4 (29:58):
It was hilarious.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
I think I did it video. I think I did
a video of his actually where he was in a bar.
We'll skip past that one. But yeah, I don't remember.

Speaker 4 (30:14):
I have no comment.

Speaker 2 (30:16):
But no, you don't have to say anything. We could
skip past that one, so you.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
Don't think you could play anymore.

Speaker 4 (30:22):
No, But but my point was, is like I just don't.

Speaker 3 (30:25):
I feel like no, like physically like I can throw
and all that, I can't. I have bad hips so
I can't run. And I just feel like I retired
really young kind of for football. I only, you know,
I just my career didn't lasts as long as i'd hope.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
So you were no Aaron Rodgers, is what you're saying.

Speaker 4 (30:41):
I was definitely not. I retired like thirty I think
it was at thirty one.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
Okay, so it's been nine to ten years since I
literally played. So sometimes I feel like I forget like
I actually played football.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
Come on, there's got to be someone out there right
now that you feel you could replace, be honest, who
is it.

Speaker 4 (30:59):
No, No one in the NFL. Maybe in like the
XFL or you or the the USFL which we have
on which we have on Fox.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
Well we would take too.

Speaker 3 (31:10):
I think I could go out there and I could
complete a ball for sure, Like I could do that
because throwing a football for me is like riding a bike.

Speaker 4 (31:17):
I can still grow physically in all those things.

Speaker 3 (31:19):
But like I just want to have no desire to
play and too, like I am just I sometimes like
like I look back and I'm like, god, how did
I like? I was like, I feel like because now
all these kids are so freaking talented, and they're so like,
what's the.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
Average completion rate right now? Because you were at what
like fifty seven?

Speaker 4 (31:38):
Oh look at you, dude, your homework NFL. I was like, well,
they played like I didn't play a lot. So I
think in like the I.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Don't even know thirteen fourteen games I played started maybe
fifty seven or fifty eight. Most of them was my
rookie year, and then I got hurt a couple of times.
But like in college, I was like sixty six, I think.
But like nowadays, I think if we always said like
if you're in, if you're in.

Speaker 4 (32:02):
I mean you had to be in the sixties, was good.
Now it's so like it's like mid to high sixties.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
If you look like everyone, every quarterback's completing like almost
seventy percent of That's what.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
I'm wondering, because like Burrow, when he came to Society,
we were like, hot, dang, this.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
Team's on fine.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
The game the game is shifted a lot too, so
like there's a lot more rules favoring offenses.

Speaker 4 (32:24):
The passes in the system now.

Speaker 3 (32:26):
Where there's a lot more completion. It's just it's like
the game is evolved from when I played. So like
when I played, if you were at like sixty five,
if you were like mid sixties, you were it was
really like that was good.

Speaker 4 (32:37):
Now mid sixties is like the lower average, like you
got to be in even in college.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
Like just because the game is shifted towards it's a
lot easier, I think offensively now because it's more wide
open game than it was when I played.

Speaker 4 (32:50):
And that's just formations, all x's and other stuff.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Well, I think if you came to Cincinnati as like
our backup, backup, back up, I feel like you're in
your forties, you'd be smart right about Yeah, when to throw,
when to get out of the pocket, all those things
I'll coach, although I don't know. I mean, we kind
of sealed up our O line, so I don't I'd
probably be a little nervous if I was in my
forties and being Cincinnati Sea.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
You know, you know what, we might be at Cincinnati
in like four weeks.

Speaker 4 (33:22):
Really you are going to call if we're there. We
are potentially there. I think it's Oklahoma, Okay.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
Plays at Cincinnati like week four, which is literally like
the end of September.

Speaker 4 (33:35):
If we come, you're gonna come, hang you come, hang
up the show.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
Let's do it. I would do you think I could
do it?

Speaker 4 (33:41):
ABD do what?

Speaker 2 (33:43):
Well, I'll call them and say, no, you guys have
to come for sure? What that you guys have to
come to Cincinnati.

Speaker 4 (33:49):
Oh okay, you can call my boss and see depended when.
But it's slated right now. It's slated Oklahoma at Cincinnati.
I just I just saw the the other guys, so
that would be. But I've never been there.

Speaker 1 (34:01):
You think it's crazy.

Speaker 4 (34:02):
Oh, I've been. I've played the Bengals, I mean that,
but I haven't been to UC at all.

Speaker 2 (34:07):
Yeah, you see, it's pretty crazy too. Like I have
a lot of friends that went to you see and
it's they're die hard fans as well.

Speaker 4 (34:13):
Yeah. No, I mean it's a great program, like great program.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
So but wait, have you been to Cincinnata. Have you
been to a Bengals game recently?

Speaker 4 (34:21):
Or no? I mean we played the Bengals in when
I played like I think in Oakland.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
Wait didn't you play for did you play for the
Bills or no?

Speaker 4 (34:31):
No? Oh I did play I played for the bills
for like three days. Okay, talk about a miserable experience.

Speaker 1 (34:38):
Was it in the winter, that's girls, No, it was August.

Speaker 4 (34:42):
It was.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
Right actually, like right now, like this time ten years ago.
It was in preseason, and I was kind of and
I just this is right when I met my met
Josie at the time, but we were dating at that,
like we were like officially boyfriend girlfriend and I knew
she was the one.

Speaker 4 (34:58):
So I had all of that, like I just want
to be home my older son, like I was missing
at the time. He was seven, so like I was
gone a lot. So I was like I want to
be closer to him. I'm kind of done playing whatever.
But I had to work out in Buffalo and like I.

Speaker 3 (35:13):
Got out there literally like on a Monday and started
the fourth preseason game on a Thursday, went through like
a three day thing, and it's said crazy, like try
to learn on the offense.

Speaker 4 (35:23):
And again I was a dad. I played, but like
I played so bad. I was just I was so
out of that. I was just done and uh, and
I was like that was my last experience playing in
the NFL. But I knew it was like I love
my girlfriend, I want to be home. I checked out,
but I was in Buffalo for like a cup of
coffee for like three days.

Speaker 3 (35:44):
Their fans were amazing, like those buff like Bill's Mafia
is like real, like they're nuts.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
They've come down to Cincinnati and I'm.

Speaker 4 (35:54):
Like, oh, sure, yeah they're there. They were awesome, like
total football town like it was, and that part was
really cool. I just was overplaying.

Speaker 1 (36:02):
So yeah, I mean, when you're when you're done, you're done.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Okay, let's talk about before we end it, let's talk
about your new bromance with Richard.

Speaker 1 (36:15):

I've never really I had like a little bit of
I just never really invested in it and he and
he has a team that helps him and does all
this stuff. Yeah, so I was like, well, I'm ready
to do this, like I see the value kind of
like I see the value in.

Speaker 4 (37:37):
It, but I also like I'm at a point in
my life where like, hey, man, like this could be fun.
And my wife was all in and we're like okay.

same crew people. I'm in the same team. So now
when we do this stuff to get like we.

like stuff like that. I mean, you do this for
a living. So it was a lot of organic content
that we were just like, oh, this could be fun.

Speaker 3 (39:44):
Yeah. So we've been having a lot of fun with that.
There's a lot like people love it. I think, I
mean people really it's really fun.

Speaker 2 (39:50):
Yeah, you guys should do more because when he started
following up that was good.

Speaker 4 (39:55):
Yeah, because and RJ is hilarious.

Speaker 3 (39:57):
Like RJ is so he's very witty, he's very fast
like and he kind of has this whole thing down
and his kind of persona on on social media, and
I'm kind.

Speaker 4 (40:09):
Of finding my my lane. I think you know too.
I think we all kind of find, like, you know,
what you want to portray and who you are on there.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
And I'm still really new. I mean this was like
I just kind of reached out to people in January.
So it's really been like six months for me, seven
months where I've really just dove like headfirst into this.

Speaker 1 (40:29):
It's fun though, Right's, yeah, it is, you know what.

Speaker 3 (40:32):
It's I am so fortunate because of my job that
like I don't do another stuff too, but like my
job is literally now pretty much the end of August
through the first week of December.

Speaker 4 (40:44):
And then I'm done the rest of the year. Like
so my job is college football season.

Speaker 3 (40:50):
Now we travel every week, like I'm busy, and now
that there's social media aspects and we're doing a lot
of stuff on the road like that, it's going to
be busier.

Speaker 4 (40:57):
But like I had the luxury of like these last
six months, it's really like every day I'm like building
my socials. I'm putting the time in and so that's
been nice.

Speaker 3 (41:06):
Like it's been a really good balance because I have
the time and freedom to do that outside of the
college football season and now ramping up to create a
lot of fun college football content this.

Speaker 4 (41:18):
Fall is what I'm going to do.

Speaker 2 (41:20):
And they have crazy followers, so literally as you put
that content out, like people are going to.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
Be all yeah, it's like and again you know this
as well as anybody, but like, like I get to
go on the road, Like, for instance, if I go
to Cincinnati, I get to be on the road in
crazy college towns with like ten thousand people at our show,
and then like the TikTok demographic, you know, the gen
zers and much younger audience like trying to try to tap.

Speaker 4 (41:47):
Into that, excuse me, and then the campuses and I
get to there's a lot of cool stuff that I
get to do for my jobs. I'm like, oh my gosh,
Like this is going to be like gold, Like it's
going to be so fun to give people kind of
like access to.

Speaker 3 (41:59):
What, you know, what it looks like on the road
and like what we do and rehearsals and you know,
and just interacting with like the kids on campus and
stuff like that. So it'll I'm really excited for the
college football season. It's gonna be a lot of fun
to do with that stuff.
