Episode Transcript

(00:03):
Broncos receiver. Let's go on theofficial home of the Broncos. All right,
all night, kook to a Broncoscountry tonight. That's been all right
mcferguson the Hall of Famers, Steveat Water, Sharon Scott back there behind

(00:25):
the glass. Look at him,look at the look at look at you
looking respectable in a button down.I don't even know what I would have
been. This is really different.This is like heavy Scott shops at the
gap. I had no idea.It was a corn appearance. It was

(00:48):
like seeing Shannon was like usually whenwe see him at Buffalo Wild Wings,
because he's like a rocker to me. And today he's dressed like he's gone
country. Alan Jackson gone country.Look at him. I'm just I'm just
fascinated. Man, you were aninternational amount of mystery. Five six six
nine zeros a text line. Youguys want to get involved in the conversation
or tell Nick that his extremely welldone steak was not medium rare or whatever

(01:12):
it was he was. He washe was trying to perpetrate a fraud.
I wasn't perpetrated a fraud like thesteak. To be totally fair, the
estate was cooked last week. Andwhen I when I saw the steak cooking,
you ate steaked, it was cookedlast week. Well no, I
mean, I'm just I'm going back. The photo is a week old.
Oh god, I mean okay,so the last was on right, so

(01:36):
it's been a while. So whatI did was, I said, look
when we cook the steak. Iwas like, I have to take it,
take this photo for being in profit, because they keep giving me crap
about you know, it cooks you. It's like, look, I charged,
not charged. I think that's thewrong word. You see it on
both sides. For a bit,you take the meat thermometer and you stick

(01:56):
it in the meat to make surethat he's at a certain temperature, like
if you wanted meat him is Ithink is forty one hundred and forty degrees.
I just is this like how youcould skill in the Oh no,
what what are you doing when youwhen you eat a steak? How do
you eat? Like? What?What color is it? A little pink
in the middle? Little You bothare like that, man, that's too
much what I mean? Yes,oh no, no, yes, it's

(02:22):
not just this is an argument ofpopular fallacy here just because you guys are
in agreement doesn't mean you're right.You guys are you guys are Technically we're
doing it in a democratic way.We have the majority over here. This
is a dictatorship. It is nota rule that iron fist. When you
cut into the steak. You justwant it to be nice and tender.
That's all just juicy. Yeah,I want it to be to be red

(02:46):
or pink throughout. It doesn't haveto be like neon red, but you
need to see red to pink likeit needs to be What is that?
Well you do? I mean likesome people eat blue rare. You know
what? What is it? Whatis the world the red? Yeah?
It's what is it? Serutin?Which is uh protein? That's not blood?
You guys understand, you guys understand. You guys understand that if there

(03:07):
was blood in the steak, you'llbe illegal to sell it to you.
Right, you're saying that, likedid the butcher like would they drain all
that out? What does it looklike? Did you protein? Red stuff
on the plate that's a protest notblood? Is that natural? Yes,
there's a protein that has been cookedand broken down in the heating process.
Whatever you want that literally don't know. Yes, he can exactly what is

(03:30):
starting to break and make fools onyourself right now, Yes, say you
see you along with the listeners andProphet just thought it was me. And
and Ben has this fallacy that he'sperpetrating the throng saying that I like my
steak cooked like tires It does.She looks like it's just like a tire
fire necessarily be So what he didto get around this because he knew I

(03:53):
was gonna cloud him, is hecut like a tidy little piece off with
the gristles, like, look,no, it's cooked. Can cross here,
buddy, you know what you're doing. You gotta get all section cheat.
The whole idea was was it reallytough and brown inside? Or was
it did it have a little ofthat pink on it? So he found

(04:14):
a piece of the gristle that hecut off the ends put a little pink
on there. It was like thehifty your game Ferguson Steve is sees it.
It seems like just like I seeit. And to me, even
though that steak on the outside thereis a nice brown sear to it,
right, but when you when youcut it in, it's moist, man,

(04:36):
it's soft like butter, Well,I'm here for that. I do.
I see the steak. You know, I've turned my grill up at
a very high you know, theseer at first, but I mean when
I cook a steak on the grill, it's three minutes each side and we're
done. Okay. So so here'sthis, Like Father's Day is coming up
this weekend. So if any ofyou grill masters are out there, you
want to text in some some adviceon grilling, hey, man, I'll

(04:59):
take it. But just I wantedto send that image out just, you
know, just let people know thatthat I don't eat tires are now more
convinced. Whatever. Steve, you'reyou're you're familiar with my use and weaponization
of Twitter. I have already turnedTwitter against Nick on the steak issues,
so he wasn't. Steve was like, oh now, Steve literally told me

(05:23):
to quit tagging him. And stillkind of stuff just coming from all from
Ben. Okay, okay. Benhas been working with Ryan Edwards for a
while, and every once in awhile you see certain things about Ryan kind
of yes, like you heard metoday in practice telling Ryan like see you're

(05:45):
doing that Ryan thing again. Andthat's what Ben Ben does like Ben has
his own thing. He's trying torope you in. So now Steve that
water fans start coming at him.Look it seems like phones blowing up his
batteries. Doctors wife was like,what's going on? Yeah, phones,

(06:06):
phones jumping off like it's a party, man, Yes, it's crazy.
Oh fine party five six six ninezero. We have a couple of texted
coming here. Says you got totake it out before that because it still
cooks while it's sitting. So somebodytell you the steak here you want?
Okay, exactly? Uh? Andthen you get from the three ill three,
It says, can you guys getpicked? I can show them the

(06:27):
perfect steak, at least for Benand I so like for me. And
by the way, the red ismyoglobin. It's I'm telling you it's here
in proteins. To me, Idon't know. I haven't heard of.
I just went to the beginning thatI was cast on. You can google
is free right in front of you, Steve. I'm just telling you,
like I I know what it is, okay, and the like I red

(06:50):
is red. All I know iswhen you cut it, it shouldn't look
like a crime scene. No,man, yeah, when they asked me
how I want my steak and bloodyas hell, and it's like, I'll
just take the pile of ash.Okay, I mean I don't like it
really tough, you know, butmeet him. Well, here's what medium

(07:10):
is the absolute most for me.And that's if I'm like somewhere I just
don't trust the kitchen. You're like, you stay soft. Yeah, you
know, Okay. My time withthe Broncos, we would always go go
to Del Frisco's on Thursday to gettogether talk about game plan and watch field.
And usually when the plates come out, they tell you don't touch them
because the places are warm. SoI will get my steak a certain way

(07:31):
where it's some pink in the middleso I can cut it open and just
sit it there right and the sokand if there's juice on the say,
it'll soak it back up because youknow, as it contracts, as it
gets cooler, you call it juice. You know, I guess Steve,
and I call it blood. It'snot blood. My globe, see there
you go. My globe says,pat the meat dry before seasoning oil the

(07:54):
rate of the grill, not themeat itself. Yes, I always oil
the grill, not the meat.See, that was something that the two
things that I that you have thetwo textans talk about that I learned like
when you you take it out andyou sit it on the counter room temperature,
then you pat it, then yousees it and you rub it in,
and then once you cook it toa certain temperature, you don't cut
into it right away. And that'sone of my biggest mistakes cutting into it

(08:16):
right away. My wife is like, no, it's an amateur. You
gotta let us sit on accounter.Right listening to my wife, I let
us sit on accounter. Yes,we let add more great cooking tips coming
up on Cooking Country tonight, Broncosoh tier, Yeah, Ota is ending
today. Sehn Payton cuts it offearly Lisa's with an extra tells everybody to
get out of town for an earlyday. Didn't do that last year?

(08:37):
Did it this year? Obviously there'sone incredibly specifically small segment of the and
I will refer to it as fanbase, even though it's a person who
hates the fact that they do that. How do you feel about that?
As for players and coaches, likehey, we take it a day,
Hey, hey, good call.You better get out of the web,

(09:00):
tell me do the day. Listen, this is a perfect way to reward
the guys for all the work thatthey've done. And looking at the approach
this year opposed to last year,it seems really different for a lot of
reasons. And I can understand peoplequestioning because last year Russell was a veteran
and you had you have two rookiequarterbacks essentially on your rosters, and Bo

(09:20):
Niggas and Zach Wilson both's trying tolearn the scheme. But if Sean Payton
is doing this, then that tellsme that he sees that his quarterbacks are
doing something that he likes enough tojust give those guys a day off where
they can kind of get away fromfootball. Which is interesting to me because
it was probably Bo Knicks's worst dayin terms of media availability, viewing.

(09:41):
And I've privately to Riot Edwards privatelyto right everts, I started calling him
bafoot bow because I hate the wayhe gets on it back foot and starts
dropping the arm and throwing it likethat he's got He's got to knock that
stuff off. Well, not todaygot picked off. Come on, come
on, see, let's be fairright, let's let's help bid understand is
because every day is it going tobe your best day? And don't keep

(10:03):
this in mind. I know,I get some mistakes out now practical for
the most of the part when weas the media would actually come to practice
boas then he's performed well. Butas coach Sean Payton saying, he's mixing
this quarterback carrousel around. So juston this particular day, this is what
you and everyone else saw, andhopefully it's not like that's the lasting image

(10:24):
image trading camp because they're off likethat is going to be the last thing.
I mean, look, you're goingto have some great plays and have
some great days and you're not.Do you wonder I'm bleeding? You're walking
it right to where I want togo with this, which is do you
think that Sean Payton did that onpurpose? Hey, this is the last
image you have, rookie of whatyou did before we go to trading camp,
motiving that gap. No, seethat's no ya and reaching. No,

(10:50):
I don't think that was the caseat all. Okay, I'm just
kidding, know, because why wouldyou do that? He spent specifically that
he came into today not necessarily knowingthat he was going to call off practice
tomorrow. Hadn't made that decision yet. Well, he probably made the decision,
not just solely on those plays thatyou suf from bone Nicks, but
it's the embodiment of everything player.Okay, did you get your work in

(11:13):
or not? Right? I'm justopposing the question because somebody inevitably will.
You know, I don't think thatbon Nix has look bad to this point
at all, but I thought todaywas probably his worst day. Now,
we're all going to have up anddown days, unless you mean, say,
yeah, let's get be on themicrophone or hole down days. But
I I you know, but II you know, it's one of those

(11:35):
things where I think it's important tobe realistic here too, you know,
and and and and figure ou wherehe's at, and it is important to
identify, Hey, this guy isthis dude's doing this thing that he probably
needs to knock off. You know, Well, do you think an extra
day would have helped? I don'tknow that it would help or hurt.
I'm not against them calling it off, And in fact, usually I think
it's a good idea. You know, it make it endears you to the

(11:56):
players. You know, you're gettingout a day early. Coaches, you
know, is hooking us up.We're gonna come back and do it extra
form, you know, they wantto training camp, that kind of stuff.
I tend to think that's a goodmotivational ploy on per especially for all
of the guys who aren't quarterbacks,not a quarterbacks. Yeah, they may
have to watch they could probably watchinga lot more film during this time period.

(12:18):
Get together with receivers at some point, yeah, yeah, but they're
the ones who the eyes are onthough, right, so they got to
put in the work. Yeah.For me, this is always great for
players from a coaching standpoint because itshows that you have a certain level of
confidence and trust in your players.And this extends further than this OTA and

(12:39):
mini camp period. But when theteam is breaking off and you were not
going to see the Broncos on thefield again into training camp, it's saying,
okay, well I trust you.Now when you come back, show
me how much you've worked. Right, Because you mentioned that it's it's like
being your parent. It's always kindof hard when your kids first starts to

(13:00):
drive. But you want to say, okay, well, I'm going to
give you an opportunity for me totrust you based on your decision making.
So right now, this is abig situation for the Broncos that they didn't
do last year, and they're tellingtheir players and their quarterbacks, I trust
you, right, you've gone throughthese installation stages already. So when we
come back, knowing as though you'retaking a tablet with you, right that

(13:22):
you should be much better. Sowe're going to grade every player based on
what we see. Now, whenyou come back they won, we're gonna
know who studied, and we're gonnaknow how well they studied. You don't
know. You figure it out realquick, and they'll have an opportunity to
get together on their own. AndI'm sure the veterans will be able to
help coach up some of the youngerguys in those sessions as well, to

(13:45):
you know, have some things thataren't quite right in their minds. They
can get that cleared up before trainingcamp starts, and training camp it starts
back over again. You start rightback from day one. They won installed
and you get it all over again. Good repetition. Right, So was
the Saxon method. I guess whatthey call that in the education. Yeah,

(14:05):
the more times through when you doanything, the better the ideas you
get better at it. Once again, the evaluation is going to start for
startings at every position not named PStwo Day one, right, because as
soon as you come in, theywant to see, okay, well,
day one of OTA's here. Here'swas the install. How well did you
take to the install when we gotto mini camp day one of install,

(14:28):
first practice? What type of mistakesdid you make? What type of plays
did you make? So day oneof training, camp man, you better
be on point like an arrow besidethe quarterbacks? What else have we seen
out there? That's that's jumping out? Well for me, it's the pass
rush. That is something that forme when he passed an office of lineman

(14:50):
camp hold right now, see thatthe office of line coaches say, well,
inval evaluating his office line, hecan't really do that became good.
They can't grab there's no pads.But here's what you can evaluate from the
pass rushers. And this was mypoint, the level of get off.
Right, you don't need to havepads on for someone to watch the level

(15:11):
of get off and how relentless youare in your pursuit to the quarterback,
because how many times that we've seenguys rust the passer and they get stowed
on that first pass move and theystop. You want a guy who's constantly
working his hands and moving his feettrying to get even trying to get his
hip around. That's what I'm talkingabout. Now. Obviously we can't really
evaluate like we want to because thereare no pads on, but it's that

(15:33):
speed and how guys are trying touse their hands. So I just think
at this point of the game,at this stage of camp, everybody's doing
that. You know, everybody's gettingoff. They're not tired, they're not
too tired. You know, theyhaven't played games back to back to back
to back. You know, theythey're fresh. So yeah, you're gonna
get off every time. One ofthe things that to us, it's gonna

(15:54):
have some things. Hey, wegot to pick it up. Yeah.
One of the things they're interested meis I saw some narratives out there to
the running backs. You know,and people have talked about Gavante looking sorry,
I'm trying to I'm trying to holdback his sneeze. That looks I
know that it was little like theywas trying to hold back a fart.

(16:14):
It's an army trick. It's anarmy treck from when you stand in information
there and you can't flinch, right, but you need to sneeze, so
you like you're trying to do whatyou can to like keep it contained.
Anyway, there's some narratives going aroundabout the running backs that Javante hasn't looked
just looked washed, and it's allJulia McLoughlin and all this kind of stuff.
I tried to put something on Twitter. I'm like, look, the

(16:37):
speedy guys, the smaller, speedyguys always look better with the pads off.
Like that's a natural byproduct of that. You can't really make judgments like
that with intel the pads on.And oh, by the way, Julia
McLoughlin is not going to be RBone on this team. Like the pass
protection issues there kind of present aproblem. You guys noticed any of that.
I mean, Joel looks good.I'm not trying to take away from
swe even look good out there.And I've never had a positive word to

(16:59):
say about the baby. Yeah,well, delil he's a worker. I
mean, Sean Payton is missing himseveral times in terms of how early he
gets into the building, how thelady stays there, how hard he works,
and we see his effort on thefield. But like you said,
he is a lighter running back.Uh, he's a he's a playmaker.
I don't think he would be theevery down back just because I don't know

(17:22):
if he could take that running upin the middle in the you know,
a gap B gap, you know, all all game long. He's not
a twenty character. He's done that. He's he's running up, running on
the inside. Some had a littlebit of success because we have some MiG
guys that do that as well.Tough to find him back there in the
wash, but he's not that guy. He's not a twenty carrier game type

(17:44):
running b. He's a ten touchguy that you hope to get some explosive
plays out of there. But youdon't really need that in today's NFL.
Like like years ago, like thinkabout Dallas Cowboys and how im It ran
the ball. He was their BillKyle running back and today's game things have
changed. The only guy doing that. Yes, because if you can throw
a bevy of players from the runningback position at your opponent, trust me,

(18:07):
man, it wears you down.But it also presents difficulties for the
defensive coordinator in game planning. Ohyou think, okay, well, this
guy's coming in a game. Wegot a match up, Foh, we
know was gonna happen right, LikeI was talking to someone today about Philip
Lindsay and the time when Philip Lindsaywas with the Denver Broncos. Like every
time Philip comes in by kind ofyou know what's gonna happen, right,
You mix it up, You turnthat weakness into a strip, and that's

(18:29):
what I see happening with the Broncosrunning back room. Oh so, guys,
you want to stick through the break. We got a pair of tickets
to Janet Jackson with Nelly or Junesixteenth to give away at Ball Arena.
You need to be sticking around forthat Broncos Country to Night rolls on if
to this all about to Broncos CountryTonight, Mint been all bright, Nick
Ferguson Hall of Famer Steve at Waterpromised you guys some tickets before we went

(18:52):
to break, and we'll get righttwo those three or three seven one three
eighty five eighty five three or threeseveone three eighty five eighty five colorful or
one pair of tickets to Janet Jacksonwith Nelly. That's the Sunday June sixteenth
at Ball Arena with para tickets JanetJackson Nelly this Sunday Ball Arena caller four
now three oh three seven one threeeighty five eighty five. I think that's

(19:15):
Michael Jackson, not Jet Jackson.That's it. That's for her brother.
Okay, No, you going toJamaine Jackson country? Did you have one?
I don't know, Tito, Iknow, Oh my goodness, I
go to I'd go to Jamaine.I mean I go to a Jane Jackson

(19:37):
show. I'd still go to one, dude, Yeah, I mean,
look, I would. Jannet Jacksonis uh is amazing. I mean from
singing, the choreography, all ofthat. Yeah, I can't remember last
time she put out a song andthen Nelly. I mean my brother worked
on his album, so like,but I have one hit, boy,
you can you can ride that hitfor a long time time. She has
several of them back. Remember theone the black and white video with her

(20:02):
and her brother. I just rememberthat one. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
that was the last one. Iremember. That's that's awesome video.
That was the last one I don'tremember. I mean, and then of
course the you know, the SuperBowl thing with Timberlake. But I like,
I'm trying to remember, Like Imean, I remember all the things
you remember. I mean, weall remember. You guys are married.
You don't know Ben still has thaton records and goes back. You know,

(20:26):
you probably know exactly Mark. I'mbringing the time stamp right now so
that I know we're gonna rewind.A lot of people think that that was
planned. What do you think thatwas planned? Probably? Yeah? I
mean yeah, I can't. Ican't. I can't fathom anything where that
would not that would be that wouldhappen, like the way that people over

(20:47):
prepare, rehearse and all like.And then there was a whole bunch of
messages like right before you know,we got to Oh there's gonna be some
scandal of stuff tonight, you knowthey yeah, they post me all that
kind of stuff. I yeah,I think it was planned. And I'm
not even the conspiracy guy that's name. I'm not even how did I become
the conspiracy guy? Conspiracy what?What? What is it that I have

(21:08):
ever said that gave you that ideathat I'm the conspiracy everything. You can't
see somebody. You can't even pointto the Instagram stuffy, I love that.
I love this, Yes I do. There you go. Yes.

(21:29):
I figure it was planned, butthey planned to do something, but they
didn't know that it was going tohave that type of reaction or the ward's
robe was going to come out.I think when he said that, uh,
that that point in the song thathe was going to put his hand
there and act as though he wasriding something, but he didn't know that
the whole thing would Actually I believethere was an accidental component to it,

(21:51):
but I believe part of it wasplaying. By the way this this like
I was, it was like fourin the morning or whatever. I was
watching this in Iraq. I was, I was. I was in Iraq
watching this and I was like,wait, did I just see I'm like
watching an Armed Forces TV. Youknow, I'm wait a minute, did
I just see? Never seen anythinglike it? We why we have a
d DR. But this is whywe watch certain shows and we watch certain

(22:14):
games because when something happens live,there's no to take it back. He's
like, no, it's out thereright, and what are you gonna do
deal with it? Or how areyou gonna deal with it now? And
that is out there. That's interestingbecause I wonder as I as I sit
here and think about moments that we'vehad that have happened live and how we've
reacted to it. The most mostrecent one probably is the Deamar Hamlin situation

(22:37):
and how that happened. That onewas so emotional for so many people.
I wonder how the Internet would havehandled Dennis Bird, you know, I
wonder, I wonder situations like that. I wonder how the internet would in
Twitter, would have handled a situationlike that on the field. Yeah,
boy, I mean to Bird's credit, I mean he eventually was able to
walk again, but he was paralyzedfor a long time. Yeah. Well,
all you have to do to envisionwhat it might have been like then,

(23:02):
and just the more Hamlet situation,how emotional it was for so many
viewers who didn't anticipate seeing what theysaw. Well, but the only thing
is I think that now the viewershipis three or four times what it was
back then. You know, soa lot many more face, a lot
many more, A lot more facesgot a chance to see the more hamleting

(23:25):
than I did. Then they gota chance to see yeah, because every
game now is televised, whereas thoseweren't. Bird by the way, man,
what unlucky. May you rest inpeace? He was. He was
killed in an audible bl axe inthe twenty sixteen. What an absolutely just
unlucky life as far as this stuffgoes. His son was his twel year
old son was injured as well.It was just a just a bad situation.
But that was for a long time. I remember I bought his book

(23:47):
because he had a book called RiseWalk, And I bought his book,
and it was it was an inspirationalread, you know about how he went
through all that and then was ableto walk again. But I wonder now
how people would handle some of thethings that maybe when we didn't have the
instant reaction mechanisms that we have now, Like like back then, the physicality
was off the change. You knowwhat, we're taking quarterbacks all the way
to the ground full wall, entirelydifferent. The best video we used to

(24:11):
get every year was the end ofthe season had first of all, the
fall Letter Network had jacked up JackUp and we went as players, we
used to tune into it every thing, Yes, and every player used to
go out with an idea like Okay, well will this be a game?
This? Will this play get meon jacked up? Right? Yes?

(24:33):
And see like Shannon Scott's noting alongright now. Shannon has his own web
series on YouTube where he just goesand punches people. Calls it the new
jacked Up. He just he justgoes and tries to jack you. I'm
just kidding. I'm just like,he's like, no, that's that's not
me. Don't give away my milliondollar idea here. But that's the power
of social media and how it canI either help you or it can hurts

(24:53):
you as a celebrity of any sort. Yeah, yeah, I just that
was one of the those things thatI've I've pondered in recent years, like
if social media had been around whenI was younger, man oh man,
bro, it would have been outof control. Yeah, it would have.
It would have been bad for me, been real, real bad for
me. Yeah, there are acouple of those and I rarely went out,

(25:15):
but there are a couple of clubnights with guys that I play with,
and if social media was around,yeah, I had them. Yes,
God, somebody recording someone everywhere nowand like the things that that we
got away with when I was Wait, wait, why are you saying,
don't say we, don't put mein Steven that No, say you,

(25:37):
Benjamin Albright, don't say we.I mean we as in the collective crowd
that I was with, and Idon't think anything like necessarily illegal or anything
like that. But I'm just saying, well, I mean, okay,
we was was not legal back thenwhatever. But like I'm saying, like
that the stuff that we did,like the drunk nights and the you know,
with the club and all that kindof stuff, yeah, it would
have it would have not been.I probably wouldn't have a career. I
mean, i'd be doing it.How old were you when you started drinking?

(26:03):
Eighteen after high school? I didnot. I didn't drink. I
did not drink until after high school. I just didn't. I didn't like
I didn't. I had a drinkand I didn't like it. I didn't
like the way made feel. Ididn't. I didn't want to do anything
that would impair performance, and Ijust did. It was after high school.
I was in the Army, youknow, all that kind of stuff
and just the culture. You know. See, for me, my drinking
experience took place earlier on the timeline, and it was my dad used to

(26:30):
drink heinegan, well at least stilldrinking heinegan. And I remember my brother
and a friend was behind the carand they kept laughing, and I'm like,
what are they laughing for? SoI kind of scurry around and look
at him, like what are youguys doing? And at first the bottle
was green, so I thought itwas like sprite. I didn't really pay
attention to it. And then Itasted it, but it was only the

(26:52):
sun. And after that I spitit out and I was like, what
is this? And he turned abottle around. He was like, it's
one of Dad's high nicots. Andafter that I was like, I'm never
drinking again. Yeah. Ever,yeah, I was the first beer was
not. In fact, I wasn'teven a beer guy until much later.
It took me a while to developthe taste for all that. But one
thing we do have a taste for. That's a check in with traffic with

(27:12):
Darren Copeland. Way worse than thatfor me. You got I got myself
handed to me there Trastic six nineZeros, tex I, Broncos Country and
I Benjamin all Bright, Nick Fergusand Hall of Famer Steve ol or shant

(27:33):
Scott back there behind your grass,glass grass, whatever might be behind the
grass too. I don't know,shant Scott. You never know. Uh,
shout out to our shout out toour guy, Steve Lemkey, Is
that correct? Who won the jedof Jackets Jackson tickets? So that's awesome,
man. Now let me ask acool question because I do this and
most people don't do it, Like, if you're going to a concert,
would you wear the T shirt ofthe band that you're going to see or

(27:56):
the ill or not? Now,if I buy the T shirt there and
then throw it on, that's different, But I don't. Generally I don't.
In fact, I don't own thatmany band T shirts anymore than I
would even wear to a concert.Right you were you were a teacher to
a concert? Well, I mean, I mean I don't go to that
many concerts. Like I went toa jay Z Mary J. Blige concert,

(28:18):
like years ago when I played forthe Texan. Where did you even
have a Mary J. Blige Tshirt? He always been, He's always
But the whole idea roll it upin a key sweat T shirt? Please?
Please? No no, No,I didn't wear Mary J. Blige
T shirt obviously, you know,playing in New York. Okay, you

(28:41):
collect things, and you know,obviously being a fan of jay Z,
right, of course I had ajay Z shirt. So I wore a
jacket and I wore a shirt underneathit. Okay, yeah, okay,
So you were like, if youever wore a band T shirt to no
concert? Okay, yeah, I'mnot. Well. First of all,
I think you need to rephrase that. You need to ask Steve has he
ever been to a concert? Igot a concert, it was performed.

(29:03):
What's the last one you saw?Yes? The last one was the weekend?
Oh can't Okay, where did youwear week You didn't wear a weekend
T shirt? Though, I don't. I don't even know the weekend.
It's good answer, Hey it was, I believe it. I mean,
hey, dud perform. I've beento a weekend show. But I've seen

(29:25):
some of the stuff, you know, obviously, So like say, for
me, I like going to concertswhere people actually it's a performance, right,
you get what you paid for?Right. It's so funny you should
say that because like I, youknow, I used to go to concerts
all the time. That's what that'swhat we did. Right on the weekends,
we drive down to Austin, Texasor Dallas and go, you know,
go see concerts. We went andsaw and it was you remember Jet
I don't know if you guys rememberthat were a rock and roll band.

(29:45):
They had four or five songs?Was Ryan Edwards? Yeah? Right?
Was open enough? Right? No, but but they had like they had
some rock and songs or whatever.And then you watch them on they had
no stage presence. Was it wasjust like five dudes up there just playing.
It was a karaoke night. Howmuch did you pay for that?
I think there's tickets, right,twenty five thirty bucks a piece and back.
Yeah, there's a lot of money, right, you know. And

(30:07):
I've seen some good shows. Imean it's all the Foo Fighters and Chili
Peppers together. It was a greatshow. You know, Oasis, that
was a great show, all thatkind of stuff. Dude, cold Play
had more energy than these dudes.Wow. See I went to a Maxwell
concert and you know it's R andB. So you're thinking, okay,
well he's not going to do alot of moving around. And even though
he did not do, there wasa lot of background dancing. But when

(30:30):
you look at the overall show,like he had this giant jumbo tron behind
him as he was singing, therewere certain things going on. I was
like, yes, you give mesomething, keep me in that vibe,
keep me with that energy. Iused to do. I used to karaoke
with his saw I'm trying to thinkof it was that. Don't ever wonder
you know what I'm talking about.I'm trying to the name of the song
