Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's a podcast called twenty five Wists and they were
a whist So yeah, it's too bad, But what don't
you expect. It's a podcast called twenty five Whistles.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Oh blood.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
So the question is which is harder hitting a major
league baseball meeting a pitcher that can throw ninety five
can also dope curveballs, or scoring a goal in professional soccer?
Oh so you're playing against pros and both.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
Okay, is our goal a penalty kick or is it
just during the game.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
You have to maneuver through defenders.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
That makes it tougher.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Yeah, because part.

Speaker 4 (00:52):
Of breakaway or something.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
Yeah, like yeah, god, even if it were a not
a soccer guy, but that thing they do whereverybody covers
their nuts.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
Oh yeah, yeah yeah on the wall.

Speaker 3 (01:03):
Oh yeah, that that's a ball in place, kick, free kick,
free kick, corner kick. That's one. Yeah, which is harder?

Speaker 2 (01:12):
I would.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
Only because I've never played soccer. I feel like the
soccer would be harder for me personally.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
I'm gonna go with baseball. I mean, I couldn't even
hit off softball pitchers.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
I'm gonna go baseball too, just because it's somebody's one
ninety it's it's unlike anything I've ever seen. Also, I
don't play soccer. They're both gonna be impossible.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
They're gonna be really, really hard. I feel like the
soccer though, you can't get lucky, you know, like sometimes
it's just some of those goals where it goes off
somebody's knee and they're just like, wow, i'd expect that
to go in.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
I won't even get it there. Maybe saw me kick
a football. I can't kick. Kicking is not my strong
suit in any way. Yeah, so sports authorities say it's
hitting the baseball. Hitting a baseball requires exceptional handout coordination, timing,
and the ability to react to pitches traveling over ninety
miles an hour. The batter must precisely connect with a small,
fast moving ball, often with only milliseconds to decide. And contrast,

(02:08):
soccer involves maneuvering through defenders, reading the game, and striking
a ball into a twenty four foot wide net. They're
kind of making that sound easier than it is, though. Yeah,
they're both really hard. Obviously. Do you see the picture
of Messi and that baby. Yeah, so this is gonna
be lack of knowledge when I tell the story. But
Messi I think was like nineteen years old and he

(02:30):
was playing for Barcelona and there's the first or second
pro team ever and they were doing a calendar shoot
and they said, hey, anybody that's got like a baby
will do a drawing and these players will take pictures
of these babies. So these babies show up. It's Messy
and this baby and that baby is a dude who
plays for Spain.

Speaker 4 (02:47):
Yeah, he's like their best player.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Now, oh that's crazy picture.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
I thought it was fake at first, but yeah it's
MESSI who's the goat, and then this baby and now
he's like Spain's best player.

Speaker 4 (02:58):
One of them literally won a draw to take this
picture charity.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
That is crazy. And then they play each other now
in the World Cup Championship.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
Will you guys watch that?

Speaker 4 (03:07):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yea.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
Is it appointment watching for you guys?

Speaker 4 (03:10):
Second half?

Speaker 2 (03:11):
I mean, is it gonna be at like two o'clock
again or what?

Speaker 4 (03:14):
I think it is two o'clock at that time kind
of Sunday though.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Do you know why it's at two o'clock?

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Yes, because they're used to their time zones, right.

Speaker 3 (03:21):
Because if you have Spain playing and they're a European team,
let's say you do it at seven, they're not going
to get to watch all two am.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yeah, but I feel like we've been on the other
end of that.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
But we're not a soccer country.

Speaker 4 (03:32):
Everybody cares about us.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
Yeah, we're also not in the finals or the semi finals. True,
way earlier. I think they play games later and not
worry about it as much. You just got to stay
up later. But if your team makes it far, they
want to make sure those games are earlier in the
afternoon so those European countries can watch them.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
You know what's really cool about those games. So my
brother in law works for the FBI, and he can
kind of opt in whenever he wants to work security
at any Cowboys game, any Rangers game. And when he
saw the World Cup was coming, he's like, just throw
my name in the in the hat. And he's been
to every single World Cup game in Dallas this year,

(04:10):
Like he's seen Messy Ronaldo all of these just because
he was working.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
Does he get to watch any of the game.

Speaker 5 (04:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
He's not like the guy that stands and has.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
To have his back to though, that's what I expect
every security person is.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
He kind of roams the whole place. So if everything's cool,
you can watch the game for a little bit.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
So he's there just to be there in case.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
Yeah, would you guys even work out if you were
a security that had to face away, Well you have
a job, yeah, because that's my job.

Speaker 3 (04:34):
I need to make money.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
True.

Speaker 4 (04:35):
But I'm just saying like, would you like, would you
want to or would it be too hard?

Speaker 3 (04:39):
So are you saying if I'm a fan of sports?

Speaker 4 (04:41):
Yeah, Like, say you're working the Super Bowl and you're
a twenty one year old kid.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
I'd still want to do it. How else am I
going to get into a super Bowl? I'm twenty one?

Speaker 2 (04:49):
Right, that'd be cool.

Speaker 3 (04:51):
You're working security, but you're there, you're getting your experience
and see everything, and.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
You see sometimes like you see these guys on camera
just kind of like slowly turn around a little bit,
watch one play, turn back around.

Speaker 4 (05:01):
And they watch people hold store in the field.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
Remember the security person who was recording Morganwallen, No.

Speaker 4 (05:06):
It wasn't yeah what yeah the phone?

Speaker 6 (05:09):
Yeah yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (05:11):
He poses and goes back and grabs his phone and
throws it.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
That's gotta be a like, ah, screw it moment. You
know what, let's just give it a shot.

Speaker 3 (05:18):
You never think about that security person who because that
video went super viral and you know, for a couple
of days they were cool to the friends. Yeah, you're
the person in the video that everybody saw. That would
be pretty cool. I saw, I saw Rich Eisen's list.
I'm seeing a lot of these top ten quarterback lists.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Now I saw his list.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
What else you're talking about?

Speaker 1 (05:38):
Now?

Speaker 3 (05:38):
It's summer, there's nothing, no sports going on. Really, it's like,
where's Lebron gonna go by the time this comes out?

Speaker 5 (05:42):
Who knows?

Speaker 3 (05:42):
It may be somewhere already or well, these guys are
doing top ten quarterbacks, and Dak keeps getting put up.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
There is I think six or seven. Rich had him
at seven, pretty solid.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
All these lists i've seen have Dak six or seven
or eight. The other person that's getting probably a bit
too much love is justin her like what is he?
What's he done?

Speaker 5 (06:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (06:02):
But Dak too, And I thought too, Drake May is
kind of low on some of these lists as well.

Speaker 4 (06:06):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
No, I just think that, you know, he showed some promise,
he showed his potential. I would put him up just
a little bit more.

Speaker 3 (06:13):
If you get one quarterback? Who you taking because Josh
Allen's number one on all these lists, But it could
be possibly because Mahomes has been hurt. He's coming off
an injury. Must say injury aside, you get one quarterback
next year.

Speaker 4 (06:29):
No injury, no injury, Padrick Mahomes.

Speaker 3 (06:32):
Same for me too. Yeah, Josh Allen has more tools,
but I think I'm still taking Mahomes.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
Yeah as Yeah, I love Josh Allen and I'd love
to have them on my team. But yeah, one season Mahomes.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Where's Jalen Hurts in these lists?

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Not?

Speaker 2 (06:47):
No, Like that's crazy to me because I feel like
he is such a tool for a team.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
Such a tool.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
Not like that.

Speaker 3 (06:55):
They're trying to get rid of him. They've tried to
get rid of him twice. The first year is there
and now they want him out of there, like attitude
or something.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
I think it's his limitations more than anything.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Yeah, what's his limitation throwing? Well, I mean he can
still throw like.

Speaker 3 (07:09):
You can throw.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
Technically, we can all throw.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
Huh Okay, Now, I mean I wouldn't take Jalen Hurts,
but I just wonder where he was in the list.
I think I would take Lamar Jackson a healthy Lamar
Jackson because we've seen Lamar when he's healthy over everybody.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
Now, they don't get to stay healthy, they just start healthy.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
Oh gosh, like they don't. That's different. Joe Burrow. I'm thinking,
like I'd love to have Joe Burrow, but if he's
not going to stay healthy the whole season, I can't
risk that. I mean I might go. Josh Allen, might
go Josh.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
Who do your boy?

Speaker 5 (07:43):
Like?

Speaker 1 (07:44):
Like?

Speaker 3 (07:44):
Who do kids like? The kids likes be getting old
and not cool anymore.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
As far as quarterbacks, yeah, they love Josh Allen. Josh
Allen's a big one for them. They also like, uh,
I think Lamar Jackson's throwing up as well. Mahomes is
kind of a big name that people like.

Speaker 4 (08:03):
What about like Caleb Williams. You like him?

Speaker 2 (08:06):
No one talks about Caleb Williams's had a one good year.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
He's had two years total.

Speaker 4 (08:09):
Yeah, but he feels like he's always kind of in
news and like it could be either cool you like
him or you hate him.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
If he has another good year.

Speaker 3 (08:16):
I don't. I just don't think unless you're a big
call a big football fan, Caleb Williams has hit that. Yeah,
Jen Pop crowded yet.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Last season was crazy though he'd come back and win
these games over and over and over.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
Yeah, it would just suck to play somewhere cold all
the time, like Chicago.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
Yeah, like Chicago, Buffalo, I mean like Buffalo. That would suck.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
That would be rough.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
Is their stadium ready this year?

Speaker 3 (08:41):
It's ready now. I think they're playing in it this year.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Okay, cool, but it's still it's open, right, Yeah like that.

Speaker 3 (08:48):
I don't mind playing for the Vikings even though it's
cold up there, because they have a freaking dome. Like
that's nice. That's why everybody wants to play for the Dolphins.
But they're gonna be terrible. Yeah, are you guys not
getting in the league with me this year?

Speaker 2 (09:00):
I haven't said. I haven't even thought about that.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
Oh I've thought about it. What do you think I
can't do it again?

Speaker 2 (09:06):
You can't.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
Can't trust me. I want to really bad, but I
just don't think I can do it again.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
But what if we win?

Speaker 4 (09:13):
I know, I know, and I'm gonna have to pull
an eddie. I'm not gonna tell my wife about it
all year.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
She still doesn't know.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
Like that's you lost two thousand dollars is my own
little side. You save enough in your side to have
two thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
Yeah, it was up for a little bit. My draft
kings was up for a little bit.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
Yeah, no, it was two thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
No, no, no, it had money from other things. But then
draft kings can can can bump it up a little bit.
Any any one of my side hustles that money goes in.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
There is your wife storing money as well somehow that
you don't know about it, Like do you both have
so much money you're just not communicating it and you
can pay off all everything. You just don't share that
you have all this money.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
That's interesting. I don't think she does because she does
have a job, like a part time job, and I
thought that everything goes into our main account. But yeah, dude,
I should go investigate. But you don't.

Speaker 3 (10:06):
Yeah, what put the money in the main account and
not all the money?

Speaker 2 (10:10):
But she knows that because she knows, like she I think,
like about like eight months ago, she's like, I don't
see you taking a lot of money out for DraftKings, and.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
She knew you had thousands of dollars in a side account.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
No, no, and she was asking about the DraftKings at first
because it would be fifty dollars every month, right, she
would see it in the bank account. And then she
didn't see that anymore. And I kind of lied for
a little bit, like maybe two months and said I
just been winning, and then now.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
You had to lie to cover for money.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
But she hasn't asked since, Oh boy, is it.

Speaker 3 (10:39):
Because she doesn't want to know the answer, and it's
just to avoid a fight.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
I think she's just kind of forgotten about it, you know,
like that's not the money that we depend on, so
I think in her mind that's out of sight, out
of mind.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
So if we did this league where we buy teams
and last year we lost thousands of dollars for a
couple of reasons, Joe Burrow getting hurt was one of them.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
That was probably the biggest.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
Yeah, it's very unfortunate chiefs chiefs sucking and then Mahomes
getting hurt. So all of that happened. Yeah, it's perfect
storm for us to lose. Imagine though, because I had
big the two years prior, but.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
The one year that we'd jump on it, we don't
hit it. And what was the team that we picked twice.
Is it Miami? Yeah, to win in loose? Yeah, shouldn't
it is? That? Does that tactic work?

Speaker 3 (11:31):
It has worked for me every year.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
But this year this was the first year it didn't work.
It worked. We broke even I know, but it's a
waste because you have no way to catch up really
because you're just like, it's a team that we don't have.

Speaker 3 (11:41):
But also you can lose so much more if you
have another losing team. So it worked that we didn't
lose more because down in that whatever, if you're if
you're in.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
I can't be alone though, because I mean, I'm looking
at now my bag has gone down. It was my bag,
isn't what it was last week?

Speaker 3 (11:58):
What about your saw some money?

Speaker 2 (12:00):
I mean, I could definitely put it, push into high
gear and start making some seal some money quick. Put
that in. Let me see out of the next I mean,
how much time do we go with July? Yeah, August,
August two months. I have a solid month to make
cash and I'll let you know.

Speaker 3 (12:17):
But the thing is you have more than that because
you don't pay till the end of the season.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
Yeah, dude, then the pressure's on, Like if we start
and then we start losing quick. I'm like, oh God,
more salsa. I didn't saw some sales guys on the holidays.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
You can sell it for Christmas. I thought, we're gonna
have Jason Garrett on today?

Speaker 2 (12:33):
What yeah, yeah, what happened?

Speaker 3 (12:36):
So say, do you want Jason Garrett? Yep, we can
do it this time.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
Got it.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
And then it was he's not able to do it
at that time, and then we're not going to be
here later in the Afternoonang, that's awesome. But I only
was taking him because of you being a Cowboys fan.
Do you have any ill will towards Jason Garrett?

Speaker 7 (12:53):
Nah?

Speaker 2 (12:53):
No, I mean when he went to the Giants, I
was weak. But you have a job. He got fired.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
He didn't have a job.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
Weird though, I would still say, no, you would anybody.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
No team loyalties don't what I understand professional you don't
have those if you're like in the industry.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
No d but your I mean he was He's a
cowboy as a player, cowboy as a coach. He was
a lifer Cowboys guy, and all of a sudden he
plays for one of our biggest rivals.

Speaker 3 (13:20):
Coaches coaches for.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
One of our biggest rivals get out of here. It's
like a Keller arrivals.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
Not that it's not real. If you're in the business,
it's literally just another business.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
I understand. But as a cowboy, you know, it's like,
would you go?

Speaker 3 (13:34):
You're can ask him that if we get him on, Yes,
what are you gonna say? If he comes on? What
are you gonna say?

Speaker 2 (13:39):
Yeah, I'll just say like, what were you thinking? Man?
What were you thinking? Coach? Like that's our biggest rival
and you said, yeah, I'll take that job. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:50):
But what he's thinking is he probably needs to have money.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
I need money, you idiots.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
In a job for his mortgage?

Speaker 2 (13:57):
Like, would you go coach for Texas? Would you go?

Speaker 3 (14:01):
If I were a coach, they probably wouldn't accept me.
Too many pictures of me doing horns down it.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
But that'll resurface for sure.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
I know that DJ, my brother in law, who now
is the head coach of Tulsa. When he was at
Arkansas the first year, maybe the second year, Texas came
to him and offered him the head assistant job. And
he was the head assistant in Arkansas and he ended
up not taking the job for a bunch of reasons
because he felt like he was close to being a
head coach anyway, but he hates Texas and he's still

(14:30):
if it had been right taking that job, because all
that stuff goes out the window whenever it's real life situations.

Speaker 4 (14:36):
Especially Texas like love more at him and it's still Texas.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
I hate.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
Yeah, But if you're a coach, I mean.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
Is there one team professionally college doesn't matter, one team
that where you'd have to just say I can't no,
because you already have a lot of money. Dude, this
isn't like you need you really just.

Speaker 3 (14:57):
Not gonna let the team thing affect me. Like I
hate Texas obviously, but I'd probably go and vomit for
a couple of days, get out of my system, and
put the Orang John. But in baseball it'd be the Cardinals.
We went and worked out with the Cardinals. That was awesome.
As the Cubs fan, you hate the Cardinals. As an
Arkansas fan, you hate Texas and only have any other.
So now, because I'm not twelve when it comes to

(15:17):
like my job.

Speaker 4 (15:19):
I'm twelve because I could never work for the Yankees.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
You would no, you would.

Speaker 4 (15:24):
No, you know that whole uh. Ben Affleck said no
to a scene or something because the Yankees hat I
want to say in the town that would be me?

Speaker 2 (15:32):
Really yeah, and you're dead serious.

Speaker 3 (15:33):
Yeah, you gotta have millions of dollars to be able
to do that though, Yeah benefflick. Yeah, in this situation,
you're also ben affleting.

Speaker 7 (15:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:40):
Yeah, we're pretending. And if I were pretending I would
go with the Eagles, I would never be able to
coach with the Eagles.

Speaker 3 (15:49):
Then if we're pretending, I hate Texas never. Okay, I mean,
but I'm actually playing the game with some realism. My
wife and I are gonna go watch The Odyssey Friday
night on anniversary, which could be tomorrow, which could be today,

(16:10):
depending on when you hear this. And so I didn't
know Christopher Nolan had so many big movies.

Speaker 5 (16:15):
Mike, Oh, he's like one of my favorite directors.

Speaker 3 (16:18):
Does the director really matter?

Speaker 2 (16:19):
Yes, Yes, he's the charge, he's the head.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
No, I hear you. But I'm saying, does a director
if the movie's written well and you have great actors,
isn't the director just going no? Look here, no say
it like this?

Speaker 2 (16:31):
Is that?

Speaker 3 (16:31):
Is that what a director is?

Speaker 5 (16:32):
Yeah, that's the whole thing. Like that's how you make
a great movie. That's like saying there's a great host
on a radio show. Not matter of course, it matters.

Speaker 3 (16:39):
Well, no, because I have to create everything. A director
comes into the scripts already written.

Speaker 5 (16:44):
Yes, a lot of times he writes the scripts. Oh really, Yeah,
he writes and directs a lot of his own.

Speaker 3 (16:48):
That's different.

Speaker 4 (16:49):
He's a dark knight, right, yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
I will have all of those movies top three mover
there because I didn't. I didn't know until I saw
a list of all the Christopher Nolan movies and I
was like, dah, he's a banger after banger, like massive bangers.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
Let's singer.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
So some of these I haven't seen, but I'll start
with the ones I have.

Speaker 5 (17:04):
We have seen all of them.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
So Oppenheimer comes out in twenty twenty three, terrible.

Speaker 2 (17:09):
I liked it such a bad movie. I fell asleep
three years ago. I fell asleep at the Imax theater
and it was made for Imax.

Speaker 3 (17:19):
I would give that four out of five.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
What would you give it one?

Speaker 3 (17:26):
Like all the talking, No.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
Dude, it's about an atomic bomb. You know what? I
missed the bomb? Why? It was only two minutes of
the movie.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
It wasn't really about the bomb. It was about what
led to the bomb.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
I mean, he's like making out with some chick, like
he's in meetings.

Speaker 5 (17:39):
One of the highest grossing biopics of all time.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
Really, Yes, more than Ray.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
Yes, that's the one you go to. I loved Ray
Tenant twenty twenty. I love Tenant.

Speaker 5 (17:51):
Tenant was wild and it's like backwards. It takes you
probably like two times to watch it to really understand it,
which is kind of a theme with Nolan movies.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
Dude, Tenant was crazy because I watched that in COVID
when there were no movies during COVID, and I went
I went to the movie theater and it was the
no it was I think the rule was you can
only like you had to be six seats apart or something.
There was some kind of rule I remember, but that
was the only movie they were showing.

Speaker 3 (18:17):
I liked Tennant. I give that four. I like those
movies because it was also in the future or something. Yeah, yeah,
I liked us.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
It was good.

Speaker 3 (18:25):
Dunkirk, a World War two survival story. I never watched Dunkirk.
Is Harry Styles in that great movie.

Speaker 5 (18:31):
It is so good, dude, really good.

Speaker 4 (18:34):
Have you said that it was okay, Like I just
remember the hype around it was so big and it
was one of those I was.

Speaker 5 (18:38):
Like, yeah, it was okay.

Speaker 4 (18:39):
You don't like war movies, of course I like war movies. Okay, jeez, American.

Speaker 3 (18:43):
You want more one direction or what kind of what
are you going to sing?

Speaker 2 (18:47):
He's actually good in that movie too.

Speaker 5 (18:49):
He's a good actor.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
Yeah, what I like that.

Speaker 5 (18:52):
If I just watched it, I think you would like Dunkirk.

Speaker 3 (18:53):
Yes, hmm, I didn't watch Dunkirk. Interstellar one of the best.
I need to put that one of my five stars movies.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
Never seen it.

Speaker 3 (19:01):
It's one that's one that you kind of got to
watch twice because even if you watch it fully dialed in,
you're gonna miss some stuff because didn't he bring on
like actual astrophysicists to consult the movie.

Speaker 5 (19:13):
Actual scientists. They wrote like theories based on the movie
because of all the things they got into it, like
teaches you about wormholes, great story.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
McConaughey's in it.

Speaker 4 (19:20):
Okay, I want to watch that one.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
Is that McConaughey and Jody Foster.

Speaker 3 (19:26):
Is Jody Foster in that Interstellar?

Speaker 5 (19:27):
I think it's Anne Hathaway's in it with the Shallows
like a kid. Yeah, he's like really young in the beginning.

Speaker 2 (19:33):
That's good. You know, I don't know if you like it, yeah,
because is aliens.

Speaker 3 (19:38):
No, but you have to fo, you have to focus.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
I can focus.

Speaker 5 (19:41):
There's a lot of science.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
You didn't like Oppenheimer. That's that's just a focus.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
They're just in meetings the whole time. We should build
a bomb, build it, then blow it up.

Speaker 5 (19:49):
So that is really emotional to Matthew McConaughey.

Speaker 3 (19:51):
Interstellar five stars.

Speaker 4 (19:53):
Yeah, that cast is insane.

Speaker 3 (19:56):
Yeah, it's so good.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
So then we got The Dark Night two thousand and eight,
excellent movie.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
Legit, five out of five.

Speaker 5 (20:02):
My favorite movie of all time.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
That's Heath Ledger Joker. Yes, Dark Knight Rises twenty twelve.
I guess there are three Dark Knights.

Speaker 5 (20:10):
Huh. Yeah, there's the Batman Begins, Dark Knight and the
Dark Knight Rises.

Speaker 3 (20:14):
Oh, Batman Begins is before the Dark Knight.

Speaker 5 (20:16):
Yeah, and Nolan did all those all three basically. Once
he had success with that, he could do any movie
he wants.

Speaker 3 (20:21):
So Batman Begins. Did Batman show up in that one?

Speaker 2 (20:26):
That's yeah.

Speaker 5 (20:26):
Christian Bale's like origin story of like him training to
become Batman.

Speaker 3 (20:29):
Does that start out in the bottom like the well
or whatever that is?

Speaker 2 (20:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (20:32):
Is that that one?

Speaker 5 (20:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (20:33):
The well, it's it's a massive hole. He's down in it,
like is it if it's a prison hole or something.
I haven't seen it forever.

Speaker 4 (20:38):
That's one with Killian Murphy.

Speaker 3 (20:40):
Is that from? Yeah? You like Dark Knight better than
Batman rises Batman begins.

Speaker 5 (20:47):
Yeah, Dark Knight's way better.

Speaker 3 (20:48):
Okay, So there's those three. I've seen. All those are
all excellent.

Speaker 5 (20:53):
The Prestige, Yeah, that's the Magician movie. Yeah, it's good. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
Who's in that one?

Speaker 4 (21:00):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (21:01):
Is Christian Bell in that one too?

Speaker 2 (21:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (21:02):
Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman, Yeah, yeah, Michael Kaine's and all
of his movies.

Speaker 3 (21:07):
The Prestige is really good. I didn't expect it to
be in that one. Yeah. It's about magicians and like
the competition between them type thing, or the competition to
make a trick.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
Is that like take place in old days, like the old.

Speaker 3 (21:19):
Yeah, that's probably why he'd expect it to be good,
because I don't like all time stuff.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
I love that stuff.

Speaker 3 (21:24):
The Prestige two thousand and six, two rival magicians become
obsessed without doing each other.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
I don't know what that one. That one I.

Speaker 3 (21:31):
Think you'll like, Yeah, out of all these, I think
Eddie would like.

Speaker 2 (21:33):
That because it's it takes place in the old days.

Speaker 3 (21:36):
Yeah, maybe he has some great movies. I've not seen. Insomnia.
Yeah it's al Pacino and is Robin Williams a bad guy?

Speaker 5 (21:45):
Yes, he's trying to figure out the crime and then
he stops sleeping.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
Basically, oh, Insomnia, So it.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
Is Robin Williams.

Speaker 5 (21:52):
Uh, he's trying to know al Pacino's trying to track
down Robin Williams.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
Okay, so al Pacino gets in Zombie, Yes, got it.
They're good, really good, really good? Or some of these
movies do they just get better because he's had more
success though.

Speaker 5 (22:08):
Yeah, because probably when this movie first came out, wasn't
super successful. But when you go back and watch all
of those movies, you're like, oh, yeah that was the
big level Memento.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
Oh that one was so good. It is this is
a guy that has short term memories, right.

Speaker 5 (22:22):
He has like tattoos all over his body because that's
how he remembers. He kind of like piece it all
together but he keeps forgetting.

Speaker 2 (22:27):
That's so good, dude, that's not I mean, that's gotta
be early two thousands, right, it's two thousand two. That
was I remember that movie. He had a barcode.

Speaker 3 (22:37):
Is it that good?

Speaker 5 (22:38):
It's pretty good?

Speaker 4 (22:39):
Could hold up today.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
I don't know. I haven't watched I mean I watched
it once, but I remember I think.

Speaker 5 (22:43):
We watched it maybe like during COVID. It was still
pretty good.

Speaker 3 (22:47):
The other one is a low budget one that doesn't count,
called The follow Following.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (22:52):
I don't really count that one, Yeah, because it was
one of his first and didn't have a bunch of money.
But he's got again, he's got the freaking greatest Hits album.

Speaker 4 (23:00):
Yeah, that's pretty legit.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
So my son, are you guys doing imax on this one?

Speaker 3 (23:04):
On Alge going to the close movie?

Speaker 2 (23:06):
Because my son was telling me that this is going
to be and you can correct me if I'm wrong
or he's wrong, Mike, but he said, this is going
to be the first all seventy milimeter IMAX feature film
that's ever been made.

Speaker 5 (23:18):
Correct, There's never been a movie shot entirely like this.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
How will that affect my viewing experience?

Speaker 5 (23:24):
You probably wouldn't care about it. I think the average
person wouldn't care about it. Is it affects the aspect ratio,
so the screen is going to look massive where a
normal movie theater is going to cut off maybe like
forty percent of it. If you can go see it
in seventy milimeter, Imax are seeing like full wall a wall.

Speaker 2 (23:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:39):
I don't think that would affect me.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
And I think Oppenheimer, this is what my son was
telling me. I think Oppenheimer was shot maybe fifteen percent
of the movie was was with that camera.

Speaker 5 (23:49):
Yeah, because it's so expensive to shoot, and it also
takes a long time. Like it takes it. They can
only run the camera for three minutes at a time,
so they'll shoot a scene in three minutes. They'll have
to stop, pause, reset everything. Actors have to hold their
positions and then they restart again. And it's like incredibly loud.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
Yes, and he said it was loud, so he Nolan,
what's his name, Christopher Nolan. Christopher Nolan went to Imax
and said, build me one that's quieter so I can
do the whole movie.

Speaker 5 (24:13):
And they did.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (24:14):
So he basically built like this giant box that's like
a chamber over to the camera, so when they're running it,
the actors can't hear it because if they hear it, it
affects their performance.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
It feels like that's what people were dealing with when
movies first started. Just normal camera we only got so
we only record so much. It's loud.

Speaker 5 (24:30):
So this is why I'm saying it matters who the
director is, because he's going to these like crazy extremes
to make the perfect movie, to get all these little
details that maybe not everybody's gonna care about, but they
make a big difference.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
A movie I forgot was Inception. Oh that's really good,
so good for DiCaprio. Dreams, Oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
I don't think I saw that a dream. I don't think, so,
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
If you'd like it or not. Every movie that's smart we.

Speaker 4 (24:54):
Tell any I don't know, man, he had to do
a lot of thinking.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
I don't know if it's for you. Man, you really
got to focus and lay it out there.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
Because it's kind of my style. I don't want to
think too much during a movie. I just want to
enjoy it.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
So what should I watch?

Speaker 1 (25:05):
Then?

Speaker 3 (25:05):
If I do watch one of these movies that I
haven't seen, I.

Speaker 5 (25:08):
Would say Momento. I feel like that's more your style.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
Okay, so the ones I haven't seen are Momento, Insomnia, Dunkirk.

Speaker 5 (25:19):
Yeah, I would go Momento Dunkirk than Insomnia. Insomnia kind
of feels early two thousands.

Speaker 3 (25:26):
Okay, i'll watch. I'll try to watch Momento this weekend.
Thenolcause we're gonna watch Odyssey. My wife did hit me
up this morning ago, are we sure we want to go?
Because it's how I did to go, And I said, well,

want to go? She was like, it's three hours and

Speaker 4 (25:46):
You're planning a movie a month out and then tickets
see this a month? Oh okay, never mind, it wasn't that.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
Oh have you ever fallen asleep during a movie in
a movie theater?

Speaker 3 (25:56):
Not accidentally?

Speaker 2 (25:57):
Oh you did it on purpose?

Speaker 3 (25:58):
Yeah? Movie sucks and I know we're not leaving. I'll

Speaker 4 (33:21):
Yeah, okay, that's what threw me off. I was like,

Speaker 5 (33:28):
But Okayang, you want to find on one for fun,
little victory run the number one. Their franchise began in Portsmouth, Ohio,
before relocating.

Speaker 4 (33:39):
Kevin, Kevin, you're.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
The only one playing, dude.

Speaker 5 (33:45):
The Browns, No, next one. You might get it. They
have never appeared in a Super Bowl despite being one
of the oldest franchises.

Speaker 4 (33:53):
That's got to be the Viking. Guess the Browns Vikings?

Speaker 5 (33:57):
No, okay, give me another clue. Their current head coach
promised to bite kneecaps during his first press conference.

Speaker 4 (34:05):
Oh the Lions, Dan Campbell, There we go.

Speaker 5 (34:09):
Kevin is the winner, job.

Speaker 2 (34:10):
Kevin James pretty good. Hey have you guys seen the
new Rocky trailer for that movie? I think it's called
I Play Rockey, I Play Rocky.

Speaker 5 (34:19):
It looks awesome, dude.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
I saw it on TikTok yesterday and I saw three times.
I'm like, First off, that actor who's playing Sylvester Stallone
is just through the trailer. Looks like he's gonna do
a great.

Speaker 5 (34:33):
Job, Looks just like him, sounds just like him.

Speaker 2 (34:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (34:35):
I thought it was a parody when I first saw,
kind of like sk yes.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Exactly, a really high quality snl skit.

Speaker 4 (34:45):
Yeah, that's what I thought. But yeah, it does look awesome.

Speaker 2 (34:47):
Does it look good? Yeah, Mike, you're a movie guy,
I'm sure you love that.

Speaker 5 (34:50):
I mean, they're kind of getting a two for one here,
because they already made Rocky, which is probably the greatest
just underdog story of all time, and now they're making
a movie about the movie, and itself is an underdog
story because it's him betting on himself. Yes, he was like,
all right, I want to write this script, and in
order for me to get the best part, that's what
I have to do. So he writes himself the best part,

(35:11):
names the movie after him, and then it's like, I'm
not making this movie. I'm not selling it to you
unless I get to play Rocky. That's awesome.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
I wonder how much the Rocky franchises has made because,
like you think about all the Rockies and does this
fall under that category? Because like you got Rocky one, two, three, four,
five Balboa, then you got Creeds, which how many creeds are.

Speaker 5 (35:35):
The three's three creeds?

Speaker 2 (35:36):
Yeah, three creeds? And then now I play Rocky? Is
that count as I.

Speaker 5 (35:40):
Would say it counts. All the Rocky movies have made
one point seven billion dollars worldwide.

Speaker 2 (35:46):
I mean, honestly, I thought it'd be more me too, real. Yeah,
that's a lot. It is a lot of money. But
I thought it would be more than a billion because
of all the movies that there are.

Speaker 4 (35:56):
Do you think it's made more than Fast and Furious?

Speaker 5 (36:00):
No way, One Fast and the Furious movie will make
a billion dollars. That's crazy.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
See, that's why I thought it'd make a lot more.

Speaker 4 (36:05):
Yeah, that is true. I didn't know he wrote Rocky. Yeah,
I never knew that.

Speaker 2 (36:09):
Yes, wow, wait wait, so did you not know that
after you watched the trailer or did you not know
it now?

Speaker 4 (36:16):
I didn't know it now, so the trailer, Yeah, I
guess I didn't pay attention to it that much. I
just looked at them.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
I didn't look at the pictures.

Speaker 6 (36:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (36:24):
I looked at the pictures and I heard Stillone's voice.

Speaker 5 (36:28):
That's pretty good. The Fast and the Furious movies had
made seven billion dollars globally. That's crazy, like for their
lower budget movies to the Rocky movies. It's not like
they have a bunch of like superhero elements to them.
Like they're pretty bare minimum.

Speaker 2 (36:41):
When's the last time you watched Rocky one?

Speaker 5 (36:45):
Probably around the time where Creed three came out. I
rewatched all the Creed one and two, and then I
went back and watched Rocky one. So that was probably
like four years ago.

Speaker 4 (36:55):
Me, dude, I couldn't tell you twenty years ago.

Speaker 2 (36:59):
Really.

Speaker 4 (36:59):
Oh yeah, I mean they're they're okay. I'm not like, Oh,
Rocky's awesome kind of guy, dude.

Speaker 2 (37:05):
Rocky to me is probably one of the best sports
movies ever because it's such an underdog story, you know,
like and it's just I think it even helps now
knowing that Sylvester Salon wrote it, bet on himself to
play it, and look at the career Sylvester Sialone made
because he decided to play Rocky when the record when

(37:26):
the movie execs were like, you're not you're not an actor. Yeah, like,
you're not going to play this Even now, I think
it's one of the greatest sports movies now And.

Speaker 5 (37:33):
Could you imagine walking away from that money because they
keep offering more and more money and he's like, no,
I think it gets up to like a million dollars,
Like I think I would sell it at that point,
but he saw like the long game of like this
is gonna be a franchise and I want to be
attached to it forever. If I just sold it off,
then I'm screwed.

Speaker 2 (37:50):
And I just kept thinking of like the you know,
modern day Sylvester Stallone, Like, dude, he lives in a mansion,
Like that was the best decision he could have ever made.

Speaker 4 (37:59):
Yeah, set for life, generational. Yeah, yeah, that's pretty awesome.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
No, I thought that was when does it come out November.

Speaker 4 (38:06):
Mike, Yeah, you guys gonna see this well, I know, Mike,
will Eddie, will you see in theaters?

Speaker 2 (38:10):
Yes? And two and also too. I watched Rocky One
last night, not all of it. You watch the trailer, dude.
I was so inspired. It's on Netflix and I saw
it on there. I'm like, I'm watching this and it's
something like, dude, it's so rare to watch something with
my kids in the room. Sports really is the only
thing that we can really watch that's like safe. But

(38:31):
then Rocky One, like, I feel it's pretty safe, and
so I watched a little bit of it, dude. The
fighting scenes, Mike looks so bad, so so bad, they
don't even make contact with each other.

Speaker 6 (38:44):
Kids liked it, they love it really, yes, But then.

Speaker 5 (38:46):
You see it in this trailer of him like teaching
Carl Weathers. He's like, I don't know how to box on.

Speaker 2 (38:49):
My actors, right. I love the director being like us,
stop hugging his neck. It was boxing.

Speaker 5 (38:55):
Because I was so motivated by this movie. I remember
when I ran my first or my second marathon, I
was like, I want to time it out. So the
song I end on is the Rocky theme song. So
I could. I could hear that in my ears as
I was like crossing the finish line. Dude, that's such
a good feeling, Like that's such a motivating song just
on its own.

Speaker 2 (39:11):
What do you what do you mean? You like planned
your playlist?

Speaker 5 (39:14):
Yeah, so I designed my whole playlist and I kind
of knew him, like my finished time. So I was
like around the three hour and like twenty five minute mark,
I want this song to come on. So that's what happened.
Like right as I got to that, I was about
across the finish line. I did you hear no, no.

Speaker 2 (39:27):
No way, that's cool.

Speaker 5 (39:30):
Like my legs were exhausted, but that's what kept me
going hearing that Rocky theme song. We just visualized Rocky
just running full speed down the street.

Speaker 2 (39:37):
Did you ever look at the playlist and be like,
oh crap, I'm falling behind, Like I'm barely on Blink
twenty two.

Speaker 5 (39:44):
Like oh now, then my headphones started to die, like
towards the end of it, I was like, oh my gosh,
they have to survive.

Speaker 4 (39:49):
Did you ever want to skip a song? You're like
why did put this on here? But I can't because.

Speaker 2 (39:54):
That's funny that's a good question. That's awesome. So what
happened to you? Like, are you you hurt? Guys?

Speaker 4 (40:01):
I don't know. I've had some really like dumb ways
of getting hurt in my life, and this is for
sure in the top three. What I was doing was legit,
just in my backyard picking up dog poop, no joke.
I was about to go on a run, speaking of Rocky,
just like Rocky.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
But you're you're dressed in your lululemons.

Speaker 4 (40:17):
Yes, yes to cut off? Actually no, no shirt. You
have your playlist ready at my playlists ready? And I
literally was on like a ledge. I have like a
foot ledge on my patio out back, and I there's
like a table that's pretty much flush with it. You
just kind of got to step over it or just
go around it. And me being me, I was like,
I'm not gonna go right now. I'm just gonna step
over it real quick and go thro those in the

(40:38):
trash can. As I pushed off with my right leg,
I felt like a twist in my knee and then
when I landed, I just heard a big pot and
I was and then I just couldn't put any weight
on it. An instant pain and I was like, mother effort,
are you kidding me right now? And at first I
just saw, oh I I just popped my knee out,
like maybe I can just pop it back in real

(40:59):
quick because this knee is.

Speaker 2 (40:59):
Done that over the years, you can pop your knee
back in.

Speaker 4 (41:02):
It randomly like locks up and then it'll just like
boom pop loose, which probably now looking back on it,
it probably wasn't good. But it just randomly happened, and
it's one of those things that happens to you move
on and you're like, I'm just getting older. I guess
I don't know. And yeah, this time it wasn't good.
It wasn't going back in. I can't extend my leg fully.
It feels like it's locked. It's the weirdest thing ever.

(41:22):
Feels like it's locked, like on the inside, like the
mcl area. And my wife's like, we gotta take you
to the R.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
But you can bend it.

Speaker 4 (41:29):
I can bend it, but I can't straighten it. And
so went to the er and got what was the
way that the R do? Nothing nice? Yeah, it was
like a new one over by my house. She was like,
this is a new one. Was like, hey, let's try
it out. We literally walked in. There's not even anybody
working on the desk. We had to ring the doorbell.

Speaker 2 (41:47):
Wow, such an emergency room.

Speaker 4 (41:48):
Actually, let me tell you this story real quick. And
then we walk in there, we ring the doorbell and
this guy comes out. He's like, are you guys, are
you here for the er?

Speaker 2 (41:57):
Yeah, dude, you guys look around like, I think.

Speaker 5 (42:00):
That where I'm at.

Speaker 4 (42:02):
I think it says emergency room on the outside. And
then so he puts me in a wheelchair and he
rolls me to the back and there's another nurse with him.
I think he was like in training, and there's another
nurse with him. We walked to the back and then
all of a sudden, like these like nurses and doctors
come out of the woodworks.

Speaker 5 (42:17):
Dude.

Speaker 4 (42:18):
It was the weirdest single like nobody was doing anything.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
Like were they all having lunch somewhere?

Speaker 4 (42:22):
And then like that's what I ranked, dude, And they
all come out of the woodworks and they walked me
to the back and they're like, oh, she's taking the
room four.

Speaker 2 (42:31):
Now, well you can pick a room, doc. They're all open.

Speaker 4 (42:34):
Floor and then the nurses like, yeah, let's go oh no, wait,
if he's got to get this, and now let's do
room eight. Okay, let's go to the roommate. And then
they start walking me like wait, but if he needs this,
and they look at another guy and they're like where,
and he's like, should probably go to room one. You're
like okay, yeah, yeah, room one.

Speaker 5 (42:50):
They only have one room.

Speaker 4 (42:56):
He was playing this joke on me. And then they
backed me up into the room one, which is right
when you enter in of course, and we passed it
five minutes ago. And then he backs me in the
wheelchair and the nurses still following me in front of me,
and he stops me and she literally like bumps me
with her shin on my hurt knee on purpose, no,
on accident, because she wasn't paying attention.

Speaker 2 (43:17):
This sounds terrible, why awful?

Speaker 4 (43:21):
And I'm like what sick jokes says and then the
guy turns me in the wheelchair next to the bed
and then he bumps the bed.

Speaker 2 (43:30):
And then the bed flips over like sandwiches.

Speaker 4 (43:33):
Yeah, dude, And I'm like, okay, maybe I should not
have come here.

Speaker 2 (43:39):
Yeah, like that's why it's empty exactly exactly.

Speaker 4 (43:42):
So that was thank god that was the last of
like all that stuff that happened, and then I got
an X ray. I was there for like two and
a half hours and negative on the x rays. But
now I got a scheduled MRI.

Speaker 2 (43:52):
So negative I'm broken bones. Yes, so that means like
messed up ligament.

Speaker 4 (43:56):
Yeah, He's like, we can't see anything unless you get
an MRI. And you can see the inside of the
knee from all the homework I was doing on and
of course with chat GPT of course. Yeah, this is
what I want to see if they're right. By the way,
I want to put this on the record so you
guys hear it too. It says a pattern is likely
called a it's a bucket handle, meniscus.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
Tear, and meniscus is your knee, right.

Speaker 4 (44:18):
Yeah, the inside of your knee, and like, what's it
bucket handle, bucket handle. So what it is is it
looks like a bucket, like a handle on a bucket.
Part of your knee or meniscus pops off and then
that goes in between your knee and the meniscus and
that's why I can't walk back into place and straight
in your leg because that's blocking it. Yeah, I did
a lot of research.

Speaker 2 (44:38):
I've never heard of that me neither.

Speaker 4 (44:40):
And it said, you know, could possibly be some a
c L and MCL stuff too, So I just hope
it's a moniscus thing. It could be anything from like
an ar Arthur scot Arthur scops, scopic scopic surgery.

Speaker 2 (44:51):
Spic Arthur Arthur. What is it, Mike, I don't.

Speaker 4 (44:56):
Know, the scoptic surgery or like your knee scoped ye scoped,
or like a full in surgery where they like take
it out and all that kind of stuff.

Speaker 2 (45:04):
So question about the er, like don't they have an
MRI machine?

Speaker 4 (45:09):
They're like they said they didn't have one, huh.

Speaker 6 (45:12):
And I was like, hmm, okay.

Speaker 2 (45:14):
Because it's weird that you go to the hospital right
because it's a hospital, right or is.

Speaker 4 (45:18):
It just a just an er just an emergency room.

Speaker 2 (45:20):
Oh so it's like an urgent care.

Speaker 4 (45:21):
Pretty much, but it says emergency room, not urgent care.

Speaker 6 (45:26):
Interesting, it's emergency spilled, right, dude.

Speaker 4 (45:30):
That is a good that it's.

Speaker 2 (45:32):
Got one letter wrong, but that could be like you like,
this is one honey that got me one time and
it's said it's said local honey, and I'm like, oh,
that's what I need for my allergies. Turns out the
name was Local Honey.

Speaker 4 (45:43):
The actual name of the brandy.

Speaker 2 (45:44):
It was made out of New York, but it was
called Local Honey. I'm like, dangn maybe it's like this.

Speaker 5 (45:48):
Maybe I have a company around here that was like ambulance.

Speaker 3 (45:51):
You know.

Speaker 4 (45:52):
Actually one more story, Dude to the guys, like, I
guess I've seen that. Mic He's like, we're gonna give
you a tourt all shot. I'm like, all right, cool,
I've had those before. They suck, but it's take the
an away. And then he picks out this big ol'd
needle and he holds it up and he's like, yeah,
it's gonna be this big ol'd needle. And I'm like,
all right, yeah, it's all good, man, I've had it before. Like,
let's just get over with And he's like, I'm just
kidding this, just a little one.

Speaker 2 (46:14):
You're right hit the horn again, Mike. This is not
a bunch of jokerswhere.

Speaker 5 (46:20):
Dude, this sounds like when you go to like that
comedy defensive driving.

Speaker 2 (46:25):
Dude, those guys are so bad. They're not funny at all.

Speaker 4 (46:29):
Yeah, it was yeah, and he started laughing. I was like, bro,
I just want to get my knee fixed. Man, let's go.

Speaker 5 (46:35):
Speaking had to take your leg.

Speaker 4 (46:37):
Yeah, we have the saw your leg off.

Speaker 6 (46:39):
Just kidding, yeah, just kidding.

Speaker 2 (46:41):
Speaking of e R though, like my sister is a
like a trauma nurse or whatever. She said that her
hospital has changed the name to an edre just changed
it to a emergency department.

Speaker 4 (46:58):
That's like some cancel thing culture.

Speaker 2 (47:00):
I have no idea of it. I'm like, you can't
call it an ED, Like, ah, shoot, I'm HERD. I
gotta go to the ED. Like that doesn't work.

Speaker 4 (47:06):
Yeah, that wouldn't make any sense to me. But what
is that?

Speaker 2 (47:09):
Yeah, yeah, emergency department?

Speaker 4 (47:11):
Interesting?

Speaker 2 (47:11):
But she's like, no more people are doing that, so
like before you know it, the hospitals are all going
to be ed's.

Speaker 4 (47:16):
Maybe that's what this was, So don't go to an ED. Yeah,
so we'll see what happens. I got to get MRI.
But man, it really sucks.

Speaker 2 (47:24):
So when you took off, like your your knee just buckled.

Speaker 4 (47:27):
Dude is the weirdest saying Yeah, like I it happened
to be like a certain plant twist, and then I
felt it come a little loose as I'm in the air,
and mind you, I'm only a foot off the air.
And then I landed and I heard everybody says in
sports whatever, pop like a loud pop in my knee,
and I felt it and it just gave out.

Speaker 2 (47:47):
That's crazy, dude.

Speaker 4 (47:47):
And then now I feel the worse for my wife
because I'm just getting over the shoulder and she got
the kids and now I can't walk.

Speaker 2 (47:54):
Yeah, you're kind of pointless.

Speaker 5 (47:56):
Yeah, I should just leave.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
End it, dude, he's done. Did I went to the
doctor yesterday and uh it was like a new doctor, right,
that's gonna be my new primary care physician or whatever.
And she was asking me like, have you ever broken
a bone? And I was like, ah, yeah, this is
my chance to tell her I'm Saint Louis Cardinals story.
She's like, because, uh, I was looking at your family
history and like there's a lot of stuff that goes

(48:19):
along with high blood pressure and like diabetes where you
get brittle bone. So so what happened? She was like,
so what happened? Uh? How did you break your bones? Like?
This is it? This is the shot? I said, Yeah,
I was practicing with the Saint Louis Cardinals and I
kind of you said it like that, Yeah, yeah, I
stepped the wrong way on second base there at Bush Stadium.

Speaker 5 (48:39):
There in Saint Louis.

Speaker 6 (48:41):
Man, it's just like.

Speaker 2 (48:43):
And I was like yeah, and like I just twisted
my ankle a little bit and then yeah, I broke
that sidebone. She was like, yeah, see that's what we
worry about stuff that's not really a huge sports injury.
And I'm like, no, no, no, it was a huge sports injury.

Speaker 6 (48:55):
Like no, no, no, no.

Speaker 5 (48:56):
It was the bottom of the night.

Speaker 2 (48:59):
You didn't hear me. I was working out with the
Saint those Cardinals.

Speaker 4 (49:02):
Yea, you know MLB actual team. Paul Goldsmith was there.
