Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to the Greatest, a production of I Heart Radio.
Hello and welcome to another episode of the Greatest. I
am Megan Gaily, joined by my co host and husband
Um and Quarantine Hero Um c J Tol. I don't know, Hi,

(00:21):
c J. How are you doing good? For some reason?
And this is a tradition. I just feel like you're
sarcastic when you say quarantine Hero. I wasn't being sarcastic
at all. Oh my gosh, did you shave? I did shave. Oh,
I just looked at your face. Listen, my I like
to not shower or do anything in the morning so
I can get right to work, and then I work
out whenever I can, and then I shave and I

(00:44):
shower at three pm. I mean, I don't mean to
give away your secrets, but I don't think right to
work is an hour and a half of TikTok videos
in the morning. That's work. And I feel like our
guest would agree. Okay, Wow, I guess I'm outnumbered here
joining us today. I'm so so so, heited. We met
working at the NFL on the Checkdown together. If you

(01:05):
are a fan or have seen even if you don't
like it, you may not. It may be because of
me and not her. Um for me, Well, I was
going to bring up the Bubble Machine. Oh, I thought
you sorry. I thought you're gonna say, don't like the checkdown.
No you're not. No, no, you were gone. You made
it and then we perfected it and then we both left.
You know. Um, So our guests say, producer of the

(01:28):
Bubble Machine does all of the incredible graphics, fun little
Oh look, Megan's lost your mind, all those great things.
And the founder of Pink Deer please welcome Heather Pink.
Thank you, guys, Thank you for having me. It was
way too nice of an introduction, are you kidding? That's
what we like, That's what we like to give people. Um. Now, Heather,

(01:50):
how long were you at the NFL? Almost eight years?
It felt like a decade, truly felt like a decade,
but it Yeah, it was almost eight years. I produced
the show NFL Fantasy Live that was on NFL network
still is. I produced that for a couple of years
before I started to dabble in social and at the time,

(02:14):
no one was controlling the NFL Fantasy handles and there
was one person working in social there. And I asked
my boss to help out, and she said, as long
as you can do it on top of producing, I
don't really care UM, and that kind of started the
train that is this, I guess. I mean there's a

(02:34):
lot of stuff in between the Yeah. Yeah, because so
you were the producer on the checkdown and then left
to create Pink Deer tell us, I know some of
the clients you work with, UM, and if you signed
any nd as, you don't have to break them. But
you do do really cool stuff with athletes and you're

(02:56):
still very much in the sports world since leaving the NFL.
I actually just signed a new comedian too. Yeah, some
loser and that's a that's an A list A list.
He's he's really great to work with. Yeah, you know,
we started the company trying to take like all the

(03:17):
lessons we learned from the NFL, which actually, like we
learned even though it's from football, it could spread beyond
every single genre or industry. You know. We when we started,
we had fitness clients and this and that, but what
we really wanted to do is work with influencers on
their content strategy, UM their strategy, helping to sort of

(03:41):
bridge what they're doing with brands because oftentimes brands have
this like old or like stoic version of how campaigns
should be. But also work with corporate clients or small
businesses get up to speed, or individuals like CEOs, and
from a corporate standpoint, we help you there on board
teams or sort of bridge the gap between the upper

(04:04):
management and also the social media managers. But oftentimes we
always find ourselves in sports some rhyme or reason. But
we've been um lucky to not have to be sports. No, yeah,
we I feel like me and you can nerd out
on it. But now it feels like what was a
few years ago when people were like social that's sort

(04:24):
of like supplemental marketing or you know, kind of like
if you want it's like a bone. It was like
a bonus way to to market yourself or get yourself
out there. And now I mean social media is the norm,
and that's you know, people aren't waiting for them to
appear on TV or anything. It's just like we have
access to these celebrities and athletes and and everyone brands

(04:46):
at all times, and so now you know they call
on people like like yourself to like, hey, what what
do I look like? On every place? I mean, let's
let's make that clear. And you too, well, I mean,
I am just I'm a baby in this. You've been
doing this, and I'm like and now I'm like the
things that Megan has asked you, I'm like, all right,
I'm writing this down for my company. Um, but but yeah, no,

(05:07):
it's it's it's a really it's awesome that you also have, like,
you know, the TV producing skill set and then now
social because yeah, there's so many things you pull from
that that you're now doing for social that I think,
you know, this is really the future the stuff that
that we do. Yeah, you know, I never knew that
producing TV or something like fantasy football a couple of

(05:29):
times a week. I never knew how invaluable that would
be to me in social media. And I didn't realize
it then when I started working more into it, and
I would meet people that, oh, I you know, I'm
a social media manager, like, oh, how do you create
the content? Like, oh, well, I get handed, I get
handed from the marketing department. I'm like, that's not like
my mind blew. And like, when I started working in

(05:51):
social more and more, I realized that, like, what the
assets that me and my business partner have is something
that like not a lot of people have. They don't
know how to create content and then know how to
execute it. And creating the content is the battle, you know,
And I never knew that. And I mean it's truly
because of the NFL producing and grinding and learning actually

(06:13):
what is good content. But granted that does not always
translate to social like knowing what the differences is super important. Yeah,
I mean, on another well, we'll do another podcast. But
I I you know, and I said, that's awesome that
you did TV and then social. I really hate a

(06:34):
trend that I hate so much. And I tell a
lot of people, co workers and whatever when a TV
person is hired as a higher up or person leadership
position that has never touched social because they think, like, oh,
TV is so premium that they're gonna like this is
easy for them, And it's just it's infuriating, and I
think it's a huge issue in our field. But you

(06:57):
from the sounds of it, and obviously from you know,
working with Meg, and I can tell like you knew
about that transition. You knew what to pick and choose
from your old world into the new world. You know.
I was the one. I won't name drop anybody, but
let's say on the show like NFL Total Access and
it's um what they were called. They're primitive stages of
social media, which granted we're not primitive stages of social media.

(07:21):
They're like, let's just throw it to social Let's just
throw it up on social and see how this works.
Like who's telling you this, Like, let's just throw it
up there. I'm like, and you want to just throw
you know, like stuff against the wall and see if
it breaks? Like I'm confused, Like what do you think
is going to happen? So, you know, and there's still
is a huge misconception of that, but oftentimes I was

(07:41):
the one being like, do you actually know what that
means in that building? You know? And and oftentimes it
leads you to other opportunities like I got, but oftentimes
you get, you know, butt heads. Well I don't, I
don't care. We need to put it up there. I'm like, Okay,
you can see how it fails. But I was infuriated
by the same exact thing c J that still infuriates me.

(08:01):
C J loves to watch things fail on the Internet
that he know, not that I'm saying things that you
were like, this is going to fail, and then when
it does fail, he's like, look, I mean I get
a little petty. For sure, I'm not the smartest personal world.
But it's just you know, we social again. Social media
is not new. It's like the new normal, I guess
with a lot of people are coming to terms with

(08:23):
it or like figuring it out. But like, there are
some classic mistakes that are just so obvious that are
still being done in a in a lot of these things,
um like me like, and sometimes it just truly doesn't
matter when when huge corporations or channels or networks do
make those mistakes, because you know, these companies are always

(08:43):
gonna They've been in prominence for so long. So anyways,
that that's very nerdy talk for Oh I loved it.
Um okay, So the super Bowl is set Bucks shuffer.
If you would have told me Bucks chiefs at the
beginning of the year, I would have gone, you know, like,
I mean the season, I just it wouldn't have moved me.

(09:06):
And it doesn't move me now. I mean when we
when we were doing the Bubble Machine, you made a
comment about how very grumbly about the Colts making the
Super Bowl, I mean, and they like to be fair.
They got pretty close. Thank you, thank you C J C. See,
you were like dogging them, but yet at the same
time you still like believed in them. That's what you

(09:28):
have to Like you had just the like dis Dane
of reality. You're like, well, they're like to wash and
to do they still we left to the Jaguars and
the opening game, and they did turn out to be
the worst team. Um, and so yeah, that's that's a
tough that's swallowing a bullet. Well, it did end up
kind of sucking our seating for the playoffs, So we

(09:50):
learned that you shouldn't do that. I guess that's what
we learned. Um. Okay, I'm just happy to not watch
Aaron Rodgers in the Super Bowl the Bears. Okay, I
was trying to pick fights with Bears fans all day yesterday.
Y'all are so mad at Aaron Rodgers, when who you
really need to be mad at is your own organization.

(10:12):
First of all, you don't need to tell me this.
I am the biggest Pace hater on the pollet Like honestly,
I'm like the least loyal Bears man, only in the
sense that I just want them to clean house. Let's
just call like Sway the clean get rid of Naggy.
I have no faith, no loyalty in it. Like I
have no problem dogging on that team because they deserve it.

(10:34):
But yeah, I think you want to get rid of
everybody but the defense. I like Nick Foles. I have
no problem with Nick Foles. I thought that if we
actually had Nick Foles in that playoff game against the Eagles,
we would have won. Like they just it's really the coaching,
Like the head coach is a moron. I mean, you

(10:57):
stick anybody else in there and they'll do a better job.
And there's a lot of NFL head coaches that are morons.
And that is something that we really need to know.
I mean, because I get mad at cults. Fans are
always like fire Frank Reich, and I'm like, you don't
know who else is out there, and like it's not good,
So let the options. It's not Bill Cower coming out

(11:20):
of retirement, Like that's not what's gonna happen. And some
of these markets need to get it through their brains
that like you're not going to get a premier coaching
candidate that's sound and like, yes, you can. You know,
the the conversation is obviously happening about like how are
there not more black head coaches and how are there
not more black head coaches even just being interviewed for

(11:42):
those positions. And it's like because a lot of these
people are promoted within and once they have the job,
they keep the job because someone else they know is
bad at their job and they're like, hey, I'm not
gonna fire you at being a bad special teams coordinator.
And so then when it comes around when that special
teams coordinator is the head coup, Like, it's just a
cycle of eadiness that feeds itself. But I have to

(12:02):
argue that one of the best coaches I think that's
ever coached is Mike Tomlin, you know, And like, I
don't know what your feelings are about Mike Tomlin, but
if he wasn't a head coach, I would be thrilled.
I think Tony Dungee is an incredible coach. I think
um Jim Calledwell is a great coach. I was wait,

(12:23):
I was just talking about Tony Dungee the other day
and I was thinking about you because we're I was
watching the other game. This is totally off topic watching
the game the other week. And I used to love
at the NFL watching that pre Sunday night football game
with Tony Dungee and who is the other day Harrison
the Okay, they've been working together for how many years?
And they have zero chemistry. It is like watching dry

(12:45):
when they talk, and it was borderline hilarious, Like, dude,
you've been working with the same guy for literally five years.
How is there no chemistry? And they both have chemistry
with Tariko though, you know, like one of my friends
was watching with one of my friends I was watching
with you was like, oh, this guy is awful. I

(13:06):
was like, well, he's one of the best. Like he
does just loves Jesus a lot. He just he loves
Jesus and that's his thing. From a programming standpoint, though,
isn't the Sunday night pregame classically when everyone takes their
break from watching football day, goes on a walk, picks
up dinner, and then it's just like I feel like
you tune in midway into the first coordinator, Like that's

(13:28):
when you're locked in. So it almost seems strategic that
the worst duo pregame duo isn't that it's the best
game of the week, you know, So it's some of
the choices this season that was not the game. I mean,
it's definitely better than Monday Night. Okay. I bring all
of this up because our topic today is greatest super

(13:48):
Bowl and I'd like to get a tally of how
many super Bowls have been attended within the US three
he there, how many super Bowls did you go to? Five? Five?
C J you have been to one and I have
been to two games three like cities um so too
for me. So we have a total of eight super

(14:11):
Bowls between the three of US. I feel like we
are a very accomplished and studied people to be talking
about this particular topic. Yeah, I felt better about this
than playoff games because at the NFL we were like
chained to our desk, like every single game except for
the Super Bowl, which you still had to work. There

(14:32):
was only one game, one Super Bowl, um that I
did not have to work, of the five I went to,
which was the best one in my opinion, because of course,
you know, but yeah, there there were some things like
when we were texting about it, that I realized, So
every time you go to a super Bowl. Um, when
you're like at the NFL. Afterwards, you get to go

(14:53):
to a convention center and eat and then you watch
the game over again if you want to stay or whatever.
And whoever I brought, we would watch the halftime performance
and oftentimes a lot of this stuff that you know
you see at a game you don't like, you don't
see it the game, but you see it on camera.
And that happened so much so now the Super Bowl

(15:14):
is notoriously a bad game because it's you know, it's
usually it's very overhyped. Um, there's yeah, I guess we
do do it to ourselves. It's teams that don't necessarily
have any rivalry whatsoever. Like part of what made that
Brown Steelers game so fun this year, it was like
their divisional rivals they've already played twice, they hate each other,

(15:37):
like truly. One player on one team almost murdered another
player on another team last year. So like there is
true like hatred, their um true rivalry, and with these
NFC a f C matchups, there's not that. Also, the
fans that are at the games at the Super Bowls
are not die hard fans. It's like Canadian businessmen and

(16:00):
than me, and then like whoever and Patriots fans that
can afford the tickets basically like, oh gosh, we would
like meet people at super there, like this is my tent,
super Us, Like, fuck you, you shouldn't get to come.
Why don't you, like those are our friends, why don't
you let less fortunate Patriots fans come. It's just the
same Patriots fans coming over and over again. I did. Oh.

(16:20):
I always was a little bitter about and granted I
was only there once, but also just hearing from our
my friends and former co workers that the people who
and they worked hard all season but for some reason
don't work real time or in game, and then they're
just like hanging out in the press box and really
enjoying that moment like they were there for the week
just to like kind of like, you know, cross tea

(16:41):
dot eyes, what the job. Let's just say that's why
you're there. I don't want to wear a suit and
do and cram into my row and just clip from
clip pro highlights and stuff. That was a little I
was like, well, maybe this could have been better at
the hotel and then I'll go there, but yeah, still great,
um okay, so we're breaking down ratest super Bowl of

(17:01):
all time when I when it's my turn, I'll tell
you the limitations I put on my choices. But Heather,
as our guest, we would love for you to kick
it off with your number three pick number three. Okay,
this is gonna sound crazy, Megan, don't hate me for
never um. Okay, So secretly, I am actually also a
Titans fan because I grew up watching Eddie George kick

(17:26):
every team's ass. And then I don't know if I
can say that in the Big ten. I've said I
ten times. I hate Ohio States so much like every
other person in the Midwest, but I just she went
to something. You have I Illinois. You by um Illinois,
And if anyone comes at me, I swear to God
I'm a produced friend. We've come, I know, but everyone's
like you have. I can't. I can't. It gets me

(17:48):
too rolka um. So my number three is actually Super
Bowl thirty four between the Rams that Titans, and it
was Okay, it's it's part because it was word of
when I fell in love with football, but also because
like I think, I mean, I think it's one of
the best Super Bowls of all time. And I don't
love Kurt Warner, like he was just like to me,

(18:09):
but I thought that Titans offense defense, Like the defense
was so much fun to watch. It was nasty, but
like not like Domickinson nasty, but like you know, I'm
gonna go. I mean literally, Kurt Warner got his ass beat.
Like play after play. Do you go and watch the highlights,
you'll literally see him like every play in the first half,

(18:29):
he just gets his ass feat and then everyone kind
of remembers at the very end to remind people that
basically the game is tied and towards the end, Kurt warners,
you know, throws a touchdown, Titans have to drive towards
the end, and then there's the famous stretch. I mean,
for me, it doesn't get every time I go to
Super Bowl, like people ask me, like, oh, you know,

(18:50):
it's Tampa Bay versus Chiefs. I just root for a
good game every time, like that is all I want.
Like I do not want to watch another Rams Patriot
Super Bowl. I would rather watch paint and dry and
sit and drink by myself for three hours. But that's
the worst that Rams Patriot one because we all knew

(19:10):
exactly what was gonna happen, and then it happened, and
it felt like it was worse than we all expected. Well,
and also we all live in l A, and no
one in l A cared and so it was so
it was like, you guys, that was the super Bowl
that I was at professionally, and then didn't go to
the game and I flew home. I'm sorry, it's okay.
I flew home Sunday morning. They just didn't send me
if you were happy to be I flew on Sunday morning,

(19:31):
and I was like, I'm glad I did not need
to stay an extra day be annoyed by every I mean,
this is going to sound very Champagne. Problems traveling to
and from the super Bowl can be complicated and get
stuck there. It's it's millions of people compaging onto one
city that maybe can't handle it. So this is okay,

(19:53):
this is where the super Bowl stories come. I'll say, oh,
I love. My first super Bowl was in New York.
It was the New York Super Bowl with um Seahawks Broncos,
and I was so I was working. I had to
like work the whole game because I wasn't full time
and so because I was working. I got on like
the NFL buses, and I literally, like they say, like,
get the funk out of there as soon as the

(20:14):
game's over with. So I got out literally the busses
next to the exit. But everyone that you know was
there all week, the executives blah blah blah. You know,
if you're in New York, the game was out in Jersey.
So everyone piled into the train and I was seeing
pictures from my friends of it being all to wall

(20:35):
and then on top of that, it it literally I
think it's snow ten inches within hours of the game.
They've done hours, so everyone not only stuck in New
York and or like everyone was like three hour delay
all day, Like it is nasty. That's a difficult stadium
to get to and from when it's not the Super Bowl. Um, okay,

(20:58):
so Heather, your your number three pick was actually my
number two picks, so I do have some info. The
final score ended up being twenty three sixteen with the
Rams winning. The Rams were up sixteen nothing at one
point and the Titans came back at that time. It
was the largest Super Bowl deficit to like overcome, even

(21:18):
though they didn't end up winning, and the performers. Faith
Hill performed the national anthem and then the half to
I Love faith Till Anytime You Tim McGraw, Faith Hill,
Let's yeah. The halftime show was Phil Collins, Christina Aguilera,
Enrique Glass, Tony Braxton, Edward James almost almost what's his name? Almost? Yeah,

(21:41):
he was. I don't know if this is a Phil Collins,
This is the wild Phil Collins, Christina Aguilera, and and
regulates just Tony brows and but it's very James almost
as sounds like a joke. It's like when we went
to see that Impressions show in Vegas and it was Elvi.
It was Michael Jackson, Elvis and Marilyn Monroe and then

(22:06):
Janice chopping. How is Janice Joplin here? Um? So that's
the vibe. But yeah, this was a great It was
also similar to you, Heather. It was like the first
Super Bowl as a kid that I wasn't just like
at my parents friends party, Like I was into the game.

(22:27):
I mean I was playing at the time, but I
like cared about it. And I remember my one detail
from it was that they kept talking about Kirk Warners
like he worked in a grocery store, like, and that's
what I love. And you know, people joke about like
the Super Bowl bingo card, what the announcers talking about.
I feel like that was brought up fifty times. Um,
this guy used to work in a grocery store and

(22:48):
then they continue to do that through his career and
it's like, no, he's been a quarterback for a while,
but um, but yeah, that was that's my memory. Steve
McNair rest in peace truly. Uh. The has been called
one yard shore the tackle it's referenced in Castaway. Um
if you remember at the very end, Yeah, he's been

(23:09):
gone so long and she's like, we have a football
team and they almost won the Super Bowl. Like that's
how long. Um. These tidbits are fire. Well the I
just remember the Castaway one from my dumb little dome.
There is a podcast. I'll look it up so I
can tell you guys, the Steve McNair podcast. That is

(23:29):
a phenomen It is so good and it is they
need to reopen the case. He I am a firm
believer that he was not murdered by his mistress. Um,
I think something else was happening. There's Nash's former Nashville. Um,
p D that believes that Steve McNair's family does not
believe he was killed by the shadus reopen up they

(23:55):
like when they first had the case, I think they
closed it with I mean that podcast I remember saying
they closed the case within like seventy two hours, which
is like record for like any murder, but for Steve
McNair's like, m okay, let's just mask the shadiness even more. Yeah. So, um,
he's very much missed. I think he would be such

(24:17):
an incredible voice in leader for today's players and everything.
I think he would just be important to hear from.
In terms of black quarterbacks in the Super Bowl, Donovan
mcnably before I don't know. I mean this was two thousands,
This is before that, This was before, this was before
right before vic to right yeahh so yeah, I have

(24:39):
to do some checking, but yeah, it seems like maybe
one of the earlier black quarterbacks in Super Bowl. I mean, yes,
Steve McNair's a legend. Yeah, pretty boring game until the second.
That's what it always feels like. And that's why we
should ban our friends saying this is over. I mean,
all the ones we're probably gonna mention it's not over.
Just wait. So you get to my number two Super

(25:00):
Bowl pick um Hall of famers from that game for
the Rams, Isaac, Bruce Marshall, Falk, Orlando Pace, and Kurt Warner.
For the Titans, Mike and George Munchuk and Bruce Matthews.
It says current future Hall of Famers. They don't have
George's in there. But I find that surprising. I find it,

(25:20):
I guess maybe not Steve McNair um. Okay, so obviously
an incredible first pick by Heather. It was on CJ
and my list as well. CJ, you want me to go, there,
you go, and there's going to be per per usual,
but it's I was I'm physically not going to be
able to pick one where it's the Patriots winning. So

(25:41):
I have no Patriot Victoria's Super Bowls. It's just I'm
I'm not the reward Listen. I make the rules of
what the greatest is. It's our podcast, and they make
me fucking furious and sad. So they're not on my list.
And then I know there's ones from like back in
the Joe Nameth and and it's just like I don't
I don't know the context fully, so I did do

(26:03):
relatively recent ones. But I understand that Terry Bradshaw is amazing.
I understand all these things, but I didn't see it,
so it's hard for me to like no. So with
all that said, my number three is super Bowl fifty
two and that is Eagles Patriots. That was the one

(26:23):
I got to go to because CJ was working. Yeah,
so Nick Foles, just a lot of amazing storylines. We
have a backup quarterback. The Eagles were such a long shot.
It felt like like going into that game, it was
like they're happy to be here. Like that was the
vibe in Minneapolis. And I'd also like to be on

(26:45):
record of saying, Minneapolis, so many lovely people, fun food you.
I hope you never host a Super Bowl again. It's
so fucking cold. It's snowed every It was just it's
too cold. Okay, it's not okay with enough with the
cold weather cities. And know Indianapolis had one, but I
don't consider a super super cold. It was warm. The
Indianapolis hosted one. That's the possibility. Minnesota in February should

(27:09):
not host an event. And that's just common sound kissing
me off. I walked out of the like direct TV
party and like Jayla was performing the night before the
super Bowl and it was like negative six outside. My dad,
who came with me, keeping me up from where I was,
He's like, man, it's fucking cold outside. And literally my

(27:30):
thighs actually took an hour to thought out, Oh gosh,
oh it's it was freezing and it's your dad's from Chicago.
It's not even like he flew into Miami, like that's
how we all fell to um but a lovely job. Nonetheless, Well,
I will say the one upside about that Super Bowl
one it's the only one I've ever been to. But

(27:50):
I love a good mall, and this is the biggest mall.
Yeah for on Yeah, I mean it's the biggest, the
Mall of America. I liked having to go there, to
shuttle there every every day. No, not downtown. It's like, no,
the Mall of America isn't a suburb. No, thank you.
I don't need to be in a suburb for the

(28:12):
super Bowl. Let's bullshit. Um, you know, give me some
It's like when the Real Housewives are poor, It's like
this is not what I want, Okay, I want like
some prestige happening. Uh so I had this one as
my number three. I was on it. It was great.
It was a very entertaining game, like high scoring. The
final score ended up being forty three. That's very high

(28:35):
for a Super Bowl. Take the under honestly if you're betting.
And there were fun storylines. There was a trick play.
Brady had a failed Hail Mary at the end, like
it came down to the last second and that so
rarely happens. And in the stadium there was just absolute joy,

(28:56):
like you were a Patriots fan or you were everyone else,
and everyone else was rooting for the Eagles, and so
there was energy in there. Like my dad was wearing
a Colt jersey, dying for the Eagles, you know, like honestly,
like going so over the stop for them. So it's
like that's how everybody felt like. There was a woman
from Orange is the New Black City in front of

(29:18):
us in Giant Scare. She's rooting for the Eagles. That's
a division rival, Like we just all wanted to see
something different and then we got it. And and the
Nick Foles very very Cinderella story. It had like a
March madness vibe to it almost and um yeah, I
just I think it was a very entertaining game, and
I feel like people at home watching it agree the

(29:40):
only thing that sucked the air out of the stadium
was just in timber legs half yes, yes, wow. So
I never revisited it and and yeah, I felt like
it was bad in person, but I was like it
was bad. But the national anthem was pink, and I
mean she killed it. Of course she murdered it. So

(30:00):
I forgot this in the first one we were discussing,
which was the year two thousand. Cost for a thirty
second commercial and that Super Bowl was one point nine million.
I'll go back to it cost for a thirty second
commercial in five million, So there you go. That's that's
inflation there. And um yeah, Minnesota, thank you, and I

(30:20):
will never be back in the winter. Speaking of the cost,
I can't remember. I think it's a beer company who
is forgoing making like an entertaining commercial. It's Budweiser. You know,
I've seen I've seen lots of jokes about how the
Bucks and the Chiefs we've kind of you know, they
know about Budweiser at this point, but they're doing it

(30:41):
to vaccine awareness, which I'm interested in seeing what that is.
But that that's cool and nice on the surface. We'll
see what it turns out to be. The estimated is
doing it. That'd be interesting. Estimated viewership for eighteen Super
Bowl was a hundred and three point four million in people.
That's a lot. That's a lot of people. Um. Okay,

(31:04):
so that's my number three pick CJ. You go ahead,
all right. Well, I gotta admit my super Bowl history
is pretty bad, so I feel like there will be
some overlaps, so I do apologize in advance if I
pick some that you guys have chosen. So my number
three is gonna be Super Bowl forty two Giants Patriots
the first one, just because yeah, Patriots going into into
that last game undefeated again people, this is the Tree

(31:27):
catch number three. This is my number three. Um, And yeah,
I think it was. It's more just on a personal
stance of I wasn't paying attention to that much like
it was. I came in, like to the playoffs, that's
when I started watching, and and then the narrative was
Patriots got this, they were comparing with the Dolphins or whatever.
And Eli too, I think had a lot of criticism
not as good as his brother, and yeah, they were.

(31:48):
They were complete underdogs. I think they were ten and
six going to the game and they had to win
like six games in a row to and and actually
the Giants and Patriots played Week sixteen, I guess it
was Week seventeen. They played the final regular season game
and the Giants party in Coughlin, played all the starters

(32:09):
and they narrowly lost. But you have to imagine now
looking back, it's like, oh, they for sure learned some
things going in. Yeah, everyone was saying like, oh, like
when Brady was facing Breeze, like, oh, you know, breezes
to and No, I'm like, that doesn't mean ship in
the playoffs, like you know, like if anything, that makes
me think that Brady's for sure going to win, if

(32:30):
you're gonna keep talking about it, I was. I was
debating about this because I went back and forth between
both Giants Patriots super Bowls, just because I actually liked
the other one a little bit more. But then I
was like the Tyreek catch like something that's super iconic.
But I just always felt like you no matter who,

(32:51):
like Odell Beckham Jr. Was the best wide receiver Eli
Manning had ever had every single other wide receiver, including
every single one that was in both Super Bowls. Jim Os,
They're just Plexico, and yet he still made it work. Plexico.
I have anybody that yes, very soft spot for Plexico. Listen,
if you shoot yourself in your own leg, we feel bad.

(33:14):
I have fan I have if you shoot yourself in
your own leg and then you go on celebrity wife swap,
I'm a fan for life. You can see why we're
attracted to certain players is because of their post reality
show careers. I mean speak of this upcoming super Bowl.
Every time Chasing Pierre Paul does anything. I'm like how

(33:35):
he blew his hand off with a firework, and I
think he only end he didn't blow his hand off
it he ended up like sort of mangling some fingers,
but a true success story to just from fire to
the super Bowl. I think JPP was in the Super
Bowl against Brady the second time they played. Yes as

(33:57):
a giant. Okay, I feel like I don't. I don't
want to go into great depths on your third pick
because I know that it will be coming up later.
But thank you for submitting your pick. What are you talking? Well,
I'm just saying, that's that's what you're doing now. Yeah,
I don't want to talk about it right now because
we're going to talk about it later. Oh okay, I

(34:19):
thought you were just like, thank you for I thought
you were just like thanking me for doing homework. No,
I think you did a great job. I just don't
want to go into great detail or else I'm gonna
have nothing else to talk for sure. Okay, so let's
take a quick break and then we'll be right back. Okay,
and we are back. What he's really freaking laughing at it?

(34:42):
I think happy was that interesting. I just didn't know
if we were like thanking each other for each other's picks,
like very formally after Okay, Well, I mean different, like
we're like forty five deep on this thing, and that
was new and it was it was fun. Listen, baby.
Part of what keeps Love cranking is doing new stuff
fresh podcast techniques. Yeah, that's how we keep it fresh

(35:02):
in the bedroom. We keep it fresh on the podcast. Um, okay,
how they give us your number two pick. I don't
know if this is controversial. I think partially it is.
And I struggled with this. One was Super Bowl fifty
one Patriots first Falcons like, I'm so sorry Falcons fans.
I know. I think mostly because I went with my
sister and it was one of my favorite Super Bowls

(35:23):
and we watched Lady Gaga, but before Lady Gaga Ga,
I was just like, hey, should we just leave after
Lady Gaga is done? And because the Patriots were down
so much, it was not the on paper, not a
good game, no, like, oh lord, I mean if you're
a Patriots fan, for sure. I mean, and also greatest comeback,

(35:44):
greatest Super Bowl comeback, and I believe it is that
it is that, like you know, but my my sister
said that, I said, Tom Brady is never going to
be done, like he is going to make it to
the last second, which is exactly what he did. I
think in this game, Julio Owns and Edelman had ridiculous
catches like the bonkers, like and I think that's what

(36:07):
I love about some of these games, like some of
the best of the best is that you've seen catches
that you truly don't you've never seen before, Like there
are like a once in a season type of catches,
and we saw that in this game. This was number
one for me and I'm gonna say this to you,
go just about patriot cause we do a lot of

(36:28):
Patriots hate, and we do a lot of Tom Brady hating.
But like again, like last night rarely solidifies it for me.
One of the greatest athletes like and as a huge
in this room, see a lot of Jordan things, but
like if he wins it, uh, like I won't. I
won't debate people if they say Tom Brady is better

(36:49):
than Michael Jordan's it's it's really it's like seven super
Bowls with ten visits, and in this game, especially like
just the when people talk about like talent skill, like
clock utilization every single second. I mean, sure he needs
to be like credit taken away for for wasting a
lot of quarters, but like that was the most masterful

(37:12):
thing I've ever seen that come back, and a lot
of I think the analysis after was like how did
the Falcons let this happen? There's that image of Arthur
blank like down on the sideline celebrating, so some some
blame does go on. I mean there was a collapse.
They had a collapse in the Super Bowl, which is

(37:32):
almost unforgivable. Dwit Freey was on that team, so it's
like it's sad. Um. Sorry, but no, why why I
hate that game is because it was it felt very
representative of the election to me. For for like, whether
that makes sense or not, I just was like, oh,

(37:54):
Hillary is the favorite, she's gonna win. The matchup is clear.
And then you know, you watch it fall apart and
you're like, oh, okay, that didn't happen. And then we
see the Falcons beating this like known Trump supporter, and
it felt good. And so then when it started to
fall apart, a lot of election night memories came flooding back.

(38:16):
I also was watching that Super Bowl at the same
place I watched the sten election results come in, and
I told this couple who has now since broken up, sadly,
I told them, I will never come to your house
ever again. I hate it here and I would burn
it to the ground if I could. No, I can't.
I can't argue with that. Um, A little bit seems personal,
but not. I agree. It was a little bit like

(38:37):
and this is what makes Tom Brady so good is
that I think he does embrace the villain role. But yeah,
it's just as like I was as a sportsman. I'm
happy that I got to witness that, even though I
was rooting for the Falcons. I'm happy God to witness
in person. I'm happy for you too. I don't I
don't hate it because here's the thing is. I mean,
I know you guys are Lakers fans. I'm not a

(38:58):
huge Lebron fan pers only, but also a lifelong Charago
Bulls fan. A Charago Bulls fan that is really a
Struggle Bulls fan. Will understand my disdain for him, but
I respect how amazing he is. And for Tom, I
don't like him, I don't like necessarily dislike him. First
of all, kudos to him for getting Giselle as a wife,

(39:18):
like I mean, anyone that like. But the fact that
he was able to come in this season on a
new team convinced Gronk to to stop doing reality TV
show like that mass singer and come back to playing football.
And like the Buccaneers were kind of like an okay team,
Like they had really good talent on defense, a little

(39:39):
bit here and there. It's so rare two for a
first year sort of team like that to bring it
all together and to make it as far as he did.
Like c J, I second that because I think that
what he did this year solidifies it a little bit,
even more so than some of the years past for him. Like,
even if he doesn't win, I think that he did

(40:00):
this season is enough. He's the got. I just don't like,
can I can I survey you guys, because I mean
everyone's always like, yeah, Brady over Jordan or whatever. But
that's like not the debate in my head or the
question like to me. I mean everyone's like, you know,
in terms of was it Belichick system or is Tom
Brady that good to either of you guys? Does this
answer that question at all? Or was it completely team effort?

(40:23):
Both times? And like Bruce arians is a great coach.
I think I saw people being like, well, this discredits Bellichick.
It's like, I don't think that at all. I think
Bill Belichick is Again I don't like him, but I
think he's an incredible coach, and I think he actually
is a football genius. And I mean that because he

(40:43):
can look at the rules and go, how do I
play within those rules without breaking them? And that is
a unique mind. I think it was both of them. Yeah,
I think you know, you can only set up a
system for success. Then I think that it really took
both of them to, you know, to to be as legendary.
I think that just Tom Brady's magic is different. You know,

(41:05):
Tom Brady can can make a James White be a
Super Bowl m v P. Like in what world do
we look like? At that time when that happened, I
was like, what the fuck is happening? Yeah, like Brady
did all the work or you know, And I thought
that was the NFL's way of saying, fuck you, you're
not getting the MVP Brady, because it was mostly Brady
that did the work. I think it was two passing

(41:27):
touchdowns and a running touchdown for James White, I can't remember,
but like the fact that he can make that guy
a super Bowl MVP because Brady did that, Like that
to me, Belichick awesome, coach, revolutionary, and both of both
people revolutionary. I just think that Brady's magic is different
because he just can make normal people look amazing. Yeah,
and that and that's a Jordan quality as well to

(41:51):
every great player quality. Iggy with the Warriors at one
year Finals MVP. It's like, you know, that was that team.
But I think I do think Belichick can take a
loser and make them good too, Like I think he
has that they both have whatever that like this year
special stuff is. Well, that's true. That's what happens when
you have Cam Newton as a quarterback. So you need

(42:13):
to give him a break. I love I love Cam.
We love Cam over here. Okay, so my my number
one of my number two have already been discussed, so
I have decided to pick a different number two, if
that's okay with everybody. And I think you're going to
find it shocking that this was not originally on my
list and this is Super Bowl. What's x l I

(42:34):
it was a cold So why is this not number one? Megan?
Shame because it's truly it's it's not number one because
it wasn't a great game, like it was horrible. It was.
It was horrible ring rain Um started that. Okay, well
that's a matter of perspective. Um. Yeah, it started off

(42:54):
with a like kick off return for a touchdown, And
I guess maybe that that's the most exciting thing that
it almost happened. And then and it also set up
like oh ship, the cults are in trouble, and then
they won, So I guess there was like a little
bait and switch that happened, first black coach to win
a Super Bowl and was going against love Smith. It

(43:16):
was the first time a black coach had been in
the Super Bowl. And we have two of them and
they were very good friends. And I think that that
that was extremely moving and beautiful to see first super Bowl,
that Peyton one, first one that he went to. So
there's a lot of Hall of famers in that game,
not a lot from the Bears side, but a lot

(43:37):
from the cult side. When it's all said and done,
and I'm very happy they won, and it goes down
as one of the greatest and most drunk days of
my life. I was thrown out of it was also
one of the drunkest days of my life. And how
horrible the Bears played. I mean, but here's the thing is,
that's like we got that far with Rex Grossman, like

(43:58):
vombit grows okay, like you know, I mean, it just
can serve like how good a defense can really get you,
but also a defense only a defense can only get
you so far. So Reggie Wayne was open on a
fifty three yard touchdown reception, and so the Bears defense

(44:19):
is incredible, has always been incredible, but something at the
bears covers the cover to scheme, like the cultures had
too many weapons for that too, totally shut them down.
I mean they were like, to be honest with you,
I think Peyton Manning could like ask that Dominic Rhodes
with the m v P Dominic Rhodes. Yeah, I mean yeah.

(44:40):
All three super Bowls that Peyton Manning's has been in,
he's played like ass Like I think he's been in
FO two of the Broncoses, two with the Colts, I'm
not no, I think yeah, he lost one with the
Broncos and one one thet Yeah, he was seeing the
Broncos because that was the one that Seahawks West and

(45:01):
it was bad. That was That's actually probably the worst
super Bowl I've ever seen. Uh no, Rams Rams Patriots
as the worst super Bowl I've ever seen. That is second.
But also it was my that was my first super Bowl,
so like as horrible. And I was in the press
box right above the end zone where they safetied Peyton Manning,
and I was like, oh, this is great. And I

(45:22):
just met Hugh Jackman, who are a huge fan of
so I was like on cloud nine. Yeah, and like
everyone's like, oh, that super Bowl is kind of shitty.
I was like, yeah, I don't like care. I went
and I got to like hang out with Hugh Jackman
and Jennifer Gardner like I'm I'm chilling. I don't care
like you're like and Peyton Manning lost. So like I was, yeah,
that was a bad one though. I was. I was

(45:42):
bartending and the bar empty, like people were like, we're good.
I mean, that's bad for a bar to empty out
on the Super Bowl Sunday. Oh boy, um okay, CJ,
what's your number two? Um? Well, fun fact that Bears
Colts Super Bowl was when I was visiting Chicago and
deciding whether I wanted to move there or not, and
I did. It was for and then yeah, so my

(46:04):
number two was said as well, which has gonna happen
on this stuff. So I mean, again I admitted, I
don't know. I just don't have the great memory for
a lot of Superls. The two fifteen one, it was,
I mean, Roman numerals are yeah x l I X,
so this would have been it was it was Seahawks Patriots.

(46:28):
And this is just because the legendary again it came
down to the last play. Yeah it was. It should
have ran it. Um, they should have handed off to Marshawn,
and as was my number one. Okay, nice, okay, because
I was just picking it based on this play because
I actually was very very high in a hotel room
in Denver and I slept. I fell asleep from eating

(46:49):
too much and woke up in my hotel room for
this last play and it was like, yo, yeah, they're
about to win it. Hand it off to Marshawn and
then they threw it and who intercepted it? Malcolm Butler.
Malcolm butl and that for me, working in memes and sports,
this was like pre NBA Twitter what it is today.
This was like the Warriors blew a three one lea,

(47:11):
like it was always handed off to mars Shawn. Malcolm
Butler inter said, like this was like sports Twitter at
its peak back then. Um. And so that that's why
I will say it's one of my favorite Super Bowl memories. Yeah,
I mean I chose it as my number one. I mean, yes,
there's personal reasons, but for me, I felt like, you know,
any game that comes down to the last play and
and I I just loved the games where it comes

(47:34):
down to that play and it's so controversial, so like
you just want to keep talking about it. You're like,
what the funk was he thinking? Why was it Marshall?
You know? And like, as I was watching the highlights
last night, and one of the highlights literally in the
beginning of the highlight was Marshawn eating skittles, and I
just I, you know, Marshawn what will go down in
history as one of the coolest players to ever play football.

(47:57):
But I thought that Seahawks team, I felt like, for me,
if I had one of these days, you guys don't
have to do a podcast of like truly greatest like
football teams of the nineties of the two thousands, that
to me was one of the greatest teams to like
full greatest teams to ever play football. I felt like
that was one of them, and they blew it. Yeah,

(48:18):
And I think that's why it's not one of my
favorites is because it was like so heartbreaking and I
like wanted Marshawn to like override the play, you know,
like just so much. Like even yesterday, I'm like, why
can't Aaron Rodgers just tell you know and be like, no, bitch,
We're not doing that. Someone asked someone as like we

(48:38):
were talking about on this call. I got on today
and there I got in and they were talking about
Aaron Rodgers, and um, I was like, yeah, I mean
people are gonna be talking about that. Like but and personally,
I felt like he always just ran the team, Like
why don't you just run up and say I'm not
I'm not kicking it on fourth and down, like like
fourth down, this is this is it. You can't give
the ball back to Brady with two minutes left. But

(48:59):
I would say that, Um, I know, you guys already
had greatest half time performances, but I felt like Katy
Perry's halftime performance in the Super Bowl was the greatest
next to Beyonce's with Desny's child. Um, I walked into
the game. This was the one super Bowl I didn't
have to work. So my dad and I go into
the tailgate and we got shammammerd and I managed to

(49:22):
sneak a beer or two into the game and I'm
in like my nice suit, which was hysterical, and um,
I don't even remember part of the first half because
I was so drunk. And also one of my friends,
um Adam Rank he had actually had the seat next
to me too, So it was just like a party.
And then when Katy Perry come on, so it was
controversial when you were there that it was like super

(49:44):
foggy and all that stuff. Like I walked outside in
Phoenix that day anything, so everyone's like, oh, the thing
isn't going to open up. And apparently Katy Perry's halftime
performance was going to involve it. And then as soon
as she sank firework, no one, no one knew that
it had moved, and everyone looked up. It was like,
oh my god. And it was just that to me

(50:05):
was part of the like craziness of it. And so
when we're on that final drive of that game, and
I think it was was a curse. Who had that catch?
The crazy clown catch or whatever? Seahawks are driving right,
it's the final class couple plays of the game and
there's this crazy catch that's it's tipped, it's this and that,

(50:27):
and it gets them in position. And basically between that
play and the play at the very end in the stadium,
no one knew who won. Literally no one knew who
one like we were. I was like, do you guys
know what happened? Everyone's like no, no, no, Like I
wasn't at the side with the jumbo tron, so no
one knew because because the phone was that bad. No,

(50:51):
because it's like because it happened so quickly. It happened
so quickly, and then all of a sudden, it's just like, wait,
who won? And then I'll we see like the and
Bettie pop out. I was like, oh, I think that's blue.
I had that experience with Paul George breaking his leg
and I don't know, and I don't know if this

(51:11):
is the stadium like a stadium thing, but cellphone reception
was bad and when it took everyone walking out to
the parking lot for it to pop up on their phone.
But I sort of know that feeling, and that's like, again,
the kind of the con of being there is you
don't get those replays. You don't get like, yeah, you
kind of just like everyone's left shark. Shark is a

(51:33):
cultural touchstone. And I had a thousand people text me
and I walked out of the stadium and my saidsters like, oh,
left Shark. I'm like, what the fund No one knew
left Shark in the stadium because you needed, like you
needed the shot of the left shark just totally going rogue.
I love Left Shark, and this is why I stopped
going to the All Star Games, because I go for

(51:53):
All Star weekend and then I started coming back one.
It's a lot of times your birthday, but because I
like watching the game, and you can't really watch the
games when you're in those press boxes. But I'm still
very grateful that we've we've gotten to go to so
much stuff like that. Okay, let's take one last break
and then we'll be back with our number one picks. Okay,

(52:23):
we're back. Sorry, it's gotten a little. This is great.
I feel like we're sharing kind of like what it's
like to be at these places. Yeah, I hope this
is relatable content, guys. So now we will go around
and do our number one. I don't have a number one.
You don't, okay, So and we're running along, so let's
just skip mine. Okay, Well, my number one is the
catch like the David Tyree Giants over the Patriots, and yeah,

(52:49):
that game was. The Patriots going into it were already
deemed the greatest team of all time. They were trying
to match the seventy two Dolphins. Um the Giants one
road games in Tampa Dallas and Green Bay to be there,
they had to go on the road for the entirety

(53:10):
of the playoffs. It was the first time an NFC
team had ever done that. And it was like, the
Patriots are winning. I mean, it's not that different than
that Eagles one that I brought up earlier. It's like,
the Patriots are in it. The Patriots are winning, especially
against this wild card Giants team that was very, very
unproven at that point. It wasn't even just Eli Manning

(53:33):
wasn't as good as his brothers. He wasn't as good
as the rest of his draft class. Philip Rivers had
better SATs than him. Like, yeah, he that that two
thousand four packed class. He just hadn't really proven himself
in any way. I don't really think he has since.
That's what's interesting. I mean, he's maybe the worst quarterback
to win two super Bowls. Maybe I'm putting something, don't

(53:55):
you know, really good? I think he was really good
for just to short him on a time and then
his expiration date just expired, but no one knew about it,
you know, I thought he was very like, you don't
win a super Bowl with a bad quarterback. I'm sorry,
but I thought he was really good, but just for
that really short amount of time, and then they just

(54:16):
made him play quarterback just for namesake. This was another
game that was not good until not even the second
half the fourth quarter. There were twenty one points scored
in the fourth quarter, the Giants scoring fourteen of them,
and so it was pretty much a snooze until then.
The Patriots were favored by twelve, which seems pretty wild.

(54:38):
Halftime show was Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Cost of
a thirty second commercial for this Super Bowl with two
point seven million and at the time it has been
broken since. At the time that was the most viewed
super Bowl of all time with nineties seven point five
million viewers. And the Super Bowl was in two thousand
and eight. Um, my senior of college, was this right

(54:58):
before the financial says probably, Um, so kind of feels
like yeah, because it was the beginning of two thousand
and eight. It really that Super Bowl. I like remember
watching it in my like college apartment. Like, when I
think back to two thousand and eight, that Super Bowl,
I'm like, oh, that was a much simpler time. Um.

(55:19):
We are generation had not experienced what we have experienced now,
and we've we've seen too much in the last twelve years.
But um, yeah, February of oh eight, that was nice. Yeah,
I thought that was for me. I couldn't decide between
those two Patriots games. I actually rewatched longer highlights of

(55:40):
the other Patriots Giants game, mostly because of the people
that were in that one. Um. I was that was
the that was the one in Indianapolis. Um, and that
was an amazing game. It really Ron her I mean
Ronet Hernandez, like the everything that happened to him. He
was awesome when he playing and when you know, when

(56:02):
he was locked in, you know, into the game, and
I think who else was? I mean, there were so
many people in that game. It was a fun It
was a very very fun game. Madonna performed at the halftime.
I think this one edges it out for me, just
because it was like it felt truly David versus Goliath,
Like it was like, oh, this is the best team ever,

(56:25):
and this is like a team with a man with
a red face who screams all the time. Like they
just seemed kind of like we and we didn't know
any of them, Like I still don't really even know
David Tybrey, But that catch like that Catches just burned
in my memory and them winning it felt like a
true release. But you're right, that other game was equally,
if not better. You know, it's hard to pick. I

(56:49):
mean it's hard to pick the greatest, right, you know,
you we only have fifty issues from But at the
same time, like what is great? You know? For me?
I want to close game at the end. I mean,
of course I want a close game everything all time,
going back and forth, back and forth, but you don't
get to have that. But sometimes things like the catch
outweigh it's just being a close game the entire time, right,

(57:10):
Like what's great? Because like the honestly, like watching that
Falcons Patriots game, I was like, okay, can someone else score?
Like you just make it close, you know, and that's tough.
But I think what was great was the comeback because
that was never been done and that's what made it great.
But like that game, That's why I was watching how

(57:31):
it did that Patriots Giants game, Like, man, this was
a really good game. Like maybe this one has to
be up there. I don't know, Well, it's your point.
Last year was really close, but it might be as
memorable as the catch or you know a lot of
these comebacks, but like that was a solid game, like
from start to finish, and I hope yeah, I mean
whatever my homes ends up doing, yeah, it just it

(57:53):
just like in ways. Yeah, we're we're like trying to
figure out what makes these the greatest, but like solid
game last year, and I do all a game, no
one remembers anything that happened outside of the Chiefs winning.
We'll just do greatest solid games. Well, And I guess
what we've learned too, is that that's the most you
can hope for in a Super Bowl Like this is

(58:15):
not the matchup that I wanted to see coming up.
Will it be exciting to see the true like passing
of the guard? Is that what the phrases passing? I
don't know, you know, old versus young. What I remembered
is the other super Bowl that Peyton was in was
against the Panthers in Super Bowl fifty and that was

(58:35):
one of the worst super Bowls ever. Well, was he
a factor? Oh that's when like the it was just
the Broncos defense that won it. Yes, yeah, that's the
one he won with the Broncos. And you're like that
was boring as hell? Remember I hope you guys did
like a worse like I hope when you guys are
watching this, you guys were evaluating the worst super Bowls

(58:58):
of all time. I said they had to live through
that one to a person, and even and I was
so excited, like in the office, everyone's like, oh, cold
Play is gonna do halftime and then they and everyone's like,
really cold Play, and then they're like, just kidding, just kidding,
it's gonna be Beyonce too, and like cool Beyonce in person,
because it was a horrible stadium. It was a horrible

(59:18):
And then you're watching this crap game. I'm just like, oh,
can we just this this? Like Bruno? What was the
good Bruno? The Bruno one with good Bruno was in
New York for Seahawks. Um, Seahawks Broncos. Okay, they're both
good to me, but I'm always trying to decipher or
distinguish the two. So I forgot this um second Giants

(59:40):
Patriots game that we're talking about, the one that was Indianapolis.
I said it was Madonna. It was also L M
F A O M I A. Nicki Minaj and C.
Low Green, And I guess I've forgotten. I remember l
M f AO because I was like that, but everybody
else I M I A. I didn't even realize m
I I was there. I feel there was some consciou
is he there about her performance? Maybe I don't know

(01:00:03):
if like she had been like banned from the States
at the time. But oh right, okay, that would um
when he just got real, that would sadly make sense.
I had what was your number one? Again? Remind my
number one was Seahawks Patriots? Okay, super Bowl? Any any
honorable mentions from you? Any games you feel like we missed? No,

(01:00:25):
I both Patriots Giants. Um. I thought that was you know,
goes down as the one of the greatest I think
super Bowl rivalries of all time. But between that, um
Egos Patriots, those were kind of my solid six and
I didn't Honestly, I'd have to say this, after those
super bowls that we talked about, excuse me. With the
exception of the Bears, Colts ones, I don't really think

(01:00:47):
that they're super bowls that are even close to those now,
except for like these oldies that we feel we can't Yeah,
I feel bad we can't really speak to those. Well,
there's I mean, I can tell you the number one
on this NFL rankings, and I hate to sound like
a loser. It's it's in black and white. And I
was like, sir, I don't know this. Um so this

(01:01:09):
is super Bowl eight. This is what they have as
number one. Steelers thirty five, Cowboys thirty one. I just
remember the party was that and yeah, it wasn't very
good this super Bowl eight. So it had to be
what nineteen six Bradshaw was m v P. There was
a bad drop by Smith pass interference call, so there

(01:01:31):
was some special teams fumble. So yeah, listen if you
watched that our list, yeah, let us we said it.
We said it super Bowl eight. Well, there was that
Steelers one, right, that Steelers super Bowl. I think that's
this one. Isn't the more recent one where Harrison James

(01:01:54):
Harrison Hinds word, Yeah, two thousand five. That's that's definitely
not going to be on my list. I definitely don't
like rooting for Ben Roll this worker though, so I
couldn't root for the Steelers if there was a gut
into my head. I always want to go on the team,
I mean team James Conner. Yea, um, okay, there where

(01:02:17):
can our listeners find you or find your work? Even
we have my Instagram Heather Pink seven. Most of my
stuff is on Pink deer Um LLC. And that's d
E A R D E A R yes um, even
though my logo is like a deer but that's the
play on the works, right Yeah. But um, yeah, you
know we don't. I gotta say, like, we don't post

(01:02:39):
a time even though we're like we're in social media,
like we're so focused on making sure one's okay, like
by the end of the day sometimes like yeah, I'm good,
like all everyone else is happy, you know, But no,
like the but then if you were to the collection
of all your clients like that, we're not the publishers.
This is what you gotta just like I gotta get
through to people, which I'm sure you did in the beginning,

(01:03:01):
is like no, we're not the destination. We're making everyone
else the destination totally. You know. I think if anybody
has social media, you know, big questions or need to
figure out what they're doing, or you know, if they're
in a stalemate or all those things. You know, that's
what my thing is like always with even with medical
like go seek the professional, Like, no matter what you

(01:03:22):
want in your life or what you're looking for, like,
seek the real professional that has real credentials out there
and hire that person, you know, And I think for me,
that's what we've always been. But like, if you're gonna
pay a doctor to tell you what's wrong, like, are
you not paying somebody else to tell you what's wrong
with your social media? If you make it your life
or your business and you're spending X amount of hours

(01:03:43):
a day on it? Like wow, you are You are
our first guests to leave us with valuable advice, truly,
and we've done I guess I'm not a comedian, that's yeah.
You know, you're an actual person who has real things
to say, and that's why sometimes valuable things come out
of it. So thank you for I think that's a
great I mean, I would hear comedians make that joke
when Trump was running of like people are like, he's

(01:04:05):
from the what who fun him? He's gone? See if
I make a joke like that, it doesn't kind of
like a joke. It makes me selling like an asshole,
So I just don't make it. I wish I hadn't
even started to describe a joke that's not even relevant anymore.
I'm an asshole, okay, c J. Where can um? We
find you at CD and everything okay, and I'm at
Megan Gaily and gosh Heather. Thank you so much for

(01:04:27):
doing this, Thank you for being the greatest mind behind
the bubble machine. And if it ever comes too much fun,
if it ever comes back ahead, we'll be there. I promise.
We're just busy bitches, you know, busy bitches. So all right,
