and he came in and frankly was not having any
of it.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
No, he did.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
He pushed back on that.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
I had to go back and look at my text
again and he didn't say next Wednesday.

Speaker 1 (01:24):
He said Wednesday, say the twenty fifth. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:27):
Yeah, maybe I brought it up like two and a
half weeks ago because we found out about it a.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Couple of weeks ago.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
You brought it up two and a half weeks ago,
and I found out about it like Monday.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
You were. No, you were on the text thread with us. No,
it wasn't, Yes, you were. I think you were. Yeah, Okay,
I just didn't comment. I don't read. Yeah, I don't know.
I mean, I don't comment.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
You kind of pick and choose. Yeah, you have a
good use of emojis. You like your emojis.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
Yeah, I'm proud of myself. DI do very good. You
were very emoji appropriate. I kind of developed that ability.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
And who would know it, right, I mean really, other
than my close friends.

Speaker 4 (02:04):
Nobody would guess that Dave Logan has mastered.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
The Emochi big as thumbs and I know and you
use the right ones in the right situation. That's very impressive.

Speaker 4 (02:12):
Yeah, there's some people that just don't a gift.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
It's that yes, Yeah, and you you have the gift,
you were boring with it, I think.

Speaker 3 (02:19):
So.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
I want to say, Rick and I had dinner the
well Lives, the four of us Friday night, Friday night,
Oh thanks, at a really good restaurant that Rick was
familiar with, Virgilio's. Awesome place owned by Virgilio Urbano. Yes,
really cool guy who came over to the table and

(02:40):
and uh.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
Said where Mike and Susy.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
No, damn no, he didn't. I think he may have
been thinking that, but no, he he didn't.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
He didn't mention that. You know, I've known him for
a long time. But where is it?

Speaker 2 (02:53):
It's on four seventy and Kipling. But he was really
enambored with Dave because I've known him. Mean, he was
enamored with you.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
He's a family.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yes, he basically gave us a tour of Italy through
the kitchen.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
I mean he just kept bringing.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
These special dishes out and then explaining how we you
know the recipe, where they come from, what part of Italy?
And I thought it was fascinating. I felt like we
just took a tour of Italy. I will tell you this,
and this is unsolicited. Virgilio's is not a sponsor on
the show. But it is delicious homemade Italian if you

(03:33):
if you really like homemade Italian food, that place is
off the chart.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Nice. We'll go again. We'll bring you next time. He did.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
By the way, Virgilio has texted me several times weird,
really good, weird.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
In the morning, sometime for a coffee or No.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
He didn't mention that he's just a good hearted guy.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
He's a really good, good dude, very gregarious.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
He brought out a really fine bottle of red wine
from his personal collection, and then out the door he
handed us each two bottles of his like signature wine.
He's got a label with his grandparents. And then we
all took an uber home. Good it was.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
It was a really good night.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
Yeah, one other story today, I have to I have
to share this with you. No, this is not rich.
So I want to see if this has ever happened
to you. So today.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
I was at uh, SASA.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
Clinic, which is I'm going to start doing spots for
them on this device you put in your mouth and
it cuts down on snoring and allows you to get
a much deeper sleep, which frankly, I've been looking for
for like the last I don't know ears.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
I think I snore some, but I don't sleep. Do

Speaker 2 (05:36):
There was one other person there and he said, hey,
I want to introduce you. Got a big, big fan here.
I didn't know who it was, so I didn't. I
didn't see the person. I said, well, at least you
know I've got one. So I walk around. Here's this
nice lady. She goes, Hi, I said, how are you?
She goes, You're not going to believe this. I said,
try me. She said, my mother was your first grade teacher.

(06:03):
I'm like, and immediately I'm not sure how I did this,
I said, miss Burkey she was. She was like, you
remember her name? I said, absolutely, that's amazing.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
That's cool.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
And she she now takes care of him on her
mom lives with her. She was such an impactful I
don't know how when you're whatever, for how old are
you in first grade?

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Six? Okay, that's impressive, Dave.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
Yeah, so now you I mean right, yeah, so she
remembered you. Yeah, I mean, and you remembered her. I
remembered miss Burkey. She sent you a picture? She did, yeah,
she said, to be a picture of her mom. Oh.
I gave her my my cell numbers. Said hey, tell
your mom. I said hello. And she obviously had an
impact that six year old little butt head.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
So were you a butt head in first grade? I
don't remember. Were you a good kid? I don't remember
that student?

Speaker 3 (06:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (06:57):
I mean, do you have such a thing as a
bad student in first grade?

Speaker 3 (07:00):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (07:00):
Yeah? Uh really?

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Oh yeah, there's there's when they when it's time out
for a nap, you don't sleep.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
What makes I mean, they're just just they're just yeah,
they're just kids. You take all the other kids, Graham crackers, yeah,
the milk, No, I didn't the cray with the browns.
Some kids have way too much energy at that age
and went to school.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
They didn't have medication for things like that, so they
were just there was no a d D. When we
went to school, there were there were no allergies and
so they just kids were just crazy and crazy.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Yeah, yeah, so you're a good kid. That was a
good kid. Miss Burkie loved. That's pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Do you guys remember your first grade teacher? H so
you weren't a good kid or.

Speaker 4 (07:41):
I'm trying to think missus Armstrong, but I think she
was actually my kindergarten teacher.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
I remember a lot of my grade school teachers.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
Yeah, I don't remember first grade. I remember second grade.
It was what happened. But Rick, we're dealing with traumatic
experience in first grade?

Speaker 1 (07:55):
What was that Catholic school?

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (07:58):
You hate my pants? Didn't the classroom? No joke? This
is this is this is my real Are you okay?
Do we need to put you on a couch?

Speaker 2 (08:05):
I could use some counseling. So like that, the whole
year was a blur and a Catholic school. They're very disciplined.
You have to raise your hand to get called on
to do anything. And I remember I had to pee
really bad, and I'm raising my hand, raising my hand.
She's not calling on me. And then I'm like, you know,
you're like, she's still not calling on me. So I

(08:28):
just sat there, peed my pants right up my chair
and the girl behind me raises her hand. She calls
on her. She said, sister Richard, just pete his pants.
Is so funny, stand up in front of the class
with pete my pants. And then she said, you're gonna

(08:49):
have to stand in the hallway. So I had to
stand in the hallway. They called my mom to bring
some fresh pants. Everybody in the school walking by laughing.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
That is very traumatic.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
That the at the kid who peed his pants. I
don't remember that teacher's name.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
He is blanked out for completely blank it out.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
It's looking back, you know, it's kind of funny, but
at the time it was traumatic.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
No, not at all last pissed. Oh I bet she was.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
Yeah you no, because she showed up and sees me
standing there all ashamed of in the hallway. I don't
think I was crying but she she goes into the
boys room with me and helps.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Me change my pants. That's what moms do. Yeah, thank
you mom for doing that's what moms do. Oh my gosh,
that's horrible traumatic.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
You never peach your pants in school? Might be the
only one. Yeah, you're the only one in this room.
I never peed my pants.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
I did not even.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
Did you ever throw up in school? In classes?

Speaker 1 (09:49):
Stuck in my hair? One time I had a guy
behind it.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
We were doing like art projects, and I put my
head back to you know, say something and put.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
My hair in a whole thing of glue.

Speaker 4 (09:58):
That pasty stuff he used elementary school, and so it
to eat.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Yeah, figure that ust that?

Speaker 2 (10:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (10:09):
Yeah, why why? I don't know? Because kids are kids.
Kids eat everything, they eat all kinds of stuff. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
I threw up right at my desk, same thing, raising
my hand. She doesn't call on me.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Did you do Catholic school all through elementary till sixth grade? Oh? Wow,
you did? And my dad finally let me go to
public school.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
It was I felt like I got out of jail
when we started public school. It was a whole new world. Oh,
I'm sure those nuns were mean. They would slap here around.

Speaker 4 (10:38):
Oh back then it was it was serious business. Oh yeah,
both my parents went to Catholic school.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Yeah. Yeah, So that's my story, Dave, what's yours?

Speaker 2 (10:47):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (10:48):
No, my story is I remember my first grade teacher.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
So I don't have memories of painting my pants in
first grade, you know, so.

Speaker 1 (10:59):
I only have those core memories.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
I have one, specifically from third grade, and this will
shock you, guys. I used to want to during recess
play where the boys were with football and whatever they
were doing, and of course they didn't want me to
do anything with them, right, so I was. And so
one time I was out there and they were like,
you can't play with us, And so I.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
Said every cuss word that I knew. I'm a third
grader and told these guys.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
Off about you know why I couldn't sit out there
and play football with them, and walked away and I
was just like, I don't even know I knew all
those words, but I just really third grade.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
Yeah see, I don't I'm trying to think.

Speaker 2 (11:37):
I don't think I know a woman who cusses more
than you.

Speaker 4 (11:45):
Really, yes, I mean have to you have to not
really not that bad, am, I You're not bad.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
You just swear like a sailor. No, you're not. It's
not bad. Dave's right.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
I mean you you use the F word as an adjective.
I've heard it you used as a noun with you,
but I do it in correct context.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
Yeah, got that for it, you know. You know I
never noticed that, but you're right.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
But now I hear here she cussed out, you know,
boys in third grade grade.

Speaker 4 (12:20):
And you know, our daughter when she was I think
in fifth grade, we got a call from her teacher
who said that she had told a girl to I
was like, did she use it in the correct context?

Speaker 1 (12:31):
And she said she did.

Speaker 4 (12:32):
But I had to call you and let you know,
and so we had to talk. You know, there's there's
times you use it. I'm amazed. I mean, and I
know that sometimes I say some things I shouldn't, but
I never have on the air.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
No, I'm really good about that. I know you are.
You guys.

Speaker 4 (12:45):
You guys are potty mouths as well. Don't make it
sound like your angels. And I'm this, you know heathen.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
I do swear.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
I went to Catholic school, so no, I don't wear
as much swear.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
I got my mouth washed out was soap. Oh god,
no really no, thankfully, Dave.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
What you never had your mouth washed out with? So
my parents loved me? Wow?

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Yeah. I did not cuss in front of my parents,
or my dad would have. I had a little black belt.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
When I get in real trouble, like with my dad,
the little black belt, oh yeah, would get it done.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
And you could hear it. Oh yeahs almost like you're like,
oh you know, oh zoro, Yeah, it was bad.

Speaker 2 (13:31):
You knew that you were going to get when, oh
if you were going to get belted, which I didn't
too many times in my life, but I did enough
to know that I didn't want to do that.

Speaker 4 (13:41):
Too many times I had it threatened. I don't think
it ever happened to me. It happened to my brother
who's younger, and my brother got the belt a few times,
and I was like, oh dang, So I always tried
to typically the.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
Boys they get it. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
I had three sisters. They never got the belt. Really,
it was me and my brother. Do you get your
mouth washed out? And the belt? The mouth wash out
was from my mom. Oh, she didn't know what else
to do, you know. She had five kids, all of
us within about six years of age, right for real.
And so my dad was the big discipline guy, and

(14:13):
you didn't want any of that. So my mom's only
weapon was the bar of soap, and that was it.
She couldn't she couldn't hurt me. She couldn't nothing she.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
Could get used to get, couldn't hurt with it, okay,
And sometimes I would laugh at her. So that's not good, No,
that's not.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
But the soap, Yeah, that was an asty that worked.
It works, It definitely works.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
Goodness. They don't do that as an adult.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
Well, if you've ever had it, you know what I'm saying.
You know what I'm talking You'll never forget that taste.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
Okay, dial or Irish green, whatever, whatever the cheap soap was,
I'm sure that's what we used. We didn't get the
Irish green. I mean maybe around Christmas and the holidays,
go to a friend's house and they'd have Irish green.
I was like, oh you have Irish you mean iris was?

Speaker 4 (15:00):
It was a green bar, but the Irish spring, Yeah,
we never had that.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
No, we never did either.

Speaker 4 (15:05):
It was like the nice, the good, you know, sugary cereals.
We didn't have that either. You go to somebody's house
and fruit loops.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
It sounded like we grew up where they were covered wagons.
We never had soap. No, we had soap, but it
was like the bulk.

Speaker 4 (15:19):
Dial, you know, not like the Irish spring fruit loops
and no like golden Grams and cheerios whenever.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
We never got sugar cereals.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
All we had was the sugar stuff. That's all your
teeth are rotten. My teeth are actually pretty good. Yeah,
but it's just it's a shot. If they are three
bowls of that every day.

Speaker 4 (15:43):
Three bowls of sugar cereal, Yes, every day, Oh my goodness,
from probably till I was twelve.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Wow, No, lie, what'd you have for breakfast when you
grew up? Dave? I was a cereal guy. Yeah, I
was mid No, I mean, I'm not.

Speaker 2 (15:56):
I'm certainly not going to sit here and lie and
say I never had fruit loops. What was your favorite?
I'm trying to think frosted flakes. Yeah, I like frosted flakes.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
My daddy a lot of raisin. He'd do grape nuts
and raisin.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
My dad ate grape nuts also, you know, I could.
I could do the grapeness thing with honey on.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
You don't do something with it.

Speaker 4 (16:19):
You can't just have a bite cereals.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
Yeahurney nut cereals.

Speaker 4 (16:26):
When honey nut cheios came out, that became better, that
was good.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
Yeah, I don't know far.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
If k is okay, Okayney nut cheerios. I'm not sure
they may be going away too. Yeah, you think they're
good if they're supposedly healthy. Right, there's gonna be Raisin
Brand and.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Captain Crunch is dead. No done? Yeah, No, Cocoa puffs,
it's like eat Lucky Charms, ny charms. Oh, Coco crispies
puffs even okay, yeah, we didn't have that either. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:04):
So this is so you you if you're listening to this.
First of all, thank you, And second of all, this
is you sort of have an insight to hoe on
the plane in the in the night before dinner when
the Broncos are getting ready to play, Oh, I.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
Don't know, the Baltimore Ravens and conversation.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
Yeah, we'd like some more crab cakes, su as you
would say, how about another bottle of kiante? And then
we're going to talk about Coco pebbles.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
And what you ate? What'd you eat when you grew up.
That's true.

Speaker 2 (17:29):
That's how we do it. Our road trips, to me
are the most memorable. Yes, because you're going into a
different city with your crew. We all get along great.
We have great chemistry, and that's what I'll remember the most,
the road trip fund and laughs.

Speaker 3 (17:43):
That we had.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
What it sounds like, are you dying?

Speaker 3 (17:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (17:45):
Are you going away?

Speaker 2 (17:46):
That sounds like ants? I hope I'm not. I did
need three bowls every days? Yeah, I might have to
get my pancreas checked. It wouldn't be pancreas, would it.
That's that's where you're instantly comes out when you he
loft that sugary cereal.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
Oh that's right. Okay, yeah, okay bad ye. Yeah, seriously,
this is what we do.

Speaker 4 (18:07):
And we'll sit there and we have to get to
the plane, you know, hour before the team arrives, So
we'll just sit there in our.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
Chairs and yeah, a little more than an hour talk
like this. It's probably little more than an hour.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
Heathen's about ninety minutes before take betwere the team they
are there. We gotta sit in the plane and not
speak and to stair straight ahead, and we crack each
other up. We do like I can just look at
you guys and start laughing. Yeah, there's a certain look.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
That you have that I think is fun Well, what's
funny with the way we sit?

Speaker 4 (18:36):
So I sit in between the two of you, and
so Dave will be talking and saying something, and then
Rick will put on his headphones and then he'll look
over and we'll be talking. It's just it's like this
comedy show that's going on. And sometimes Rick, Rick's trying
to find a movie. What did you do that last
time when you were finding a movie. I always make
fun of the movies that you watch.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
Yes, so do I. I don't remember what movie I watched,
I know, but you and you watch it and yeah,
here's what I remember. You plug it in Dave's headphones
for it? Well, yeah, single flight.

Speaker 4 (19:12):
Find the little tiny jack for the whole f for
the headphones.

Speaker 1 (19:15):
Hard to find. Serious, So he gets up on all
fours on the seat. I do flashlight on my phone
under the seats. I take pictures.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
Sometimes it gets a funny pose and that cracks me
up every time.

Speaker 3 (19:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (19:31):
That that was one where the flat attendant walked by
and it was like to look like, really, these are
the things we do before we take it. Dave needs
to have his headphones plugeda. How does this look exactly? Sure,
this is what we wanted to get out, But.

Speaker 4 (19:47):
These seats are kind of you know, they're a little antiquated,
and it's very difficult to find where to plug in
the headphone.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Jack Rick seems to have no problem. I don't have
to plug in. I'm a little more technically right.

Speaker 4 (20:00):
No, I don't think you can't find the wife, and
I have to help each of you with that every time.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
May truth be known.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
Your hands are small enough that you have an easier
time migrating through the various things to get to the
little hole.

Speaker 1 (20:13):
You have smaller hands, well, there.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
Are some advantages to having well, like I have small hands,
you have small hands, stretch smaller than small hands, small feet.

Speaker 1 (20:24):
That's all.

after your football career seems like it's more of a guys,

of Alan Roach. Roach.

So this will be this will be year thirty six

Speaker 3 (22:15):
Longer than some of the listeners have been alive.

Speaker 2 (22:19):
You know, you don't you don't need to say. I mean,
we don't need to hear that. Yeah, grunt hadn't been
on the planet that long. That's right.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
Oh that's true, Grants, And I'm thirty six years old.
When were you born? Nineteen ninety one? Oh wow, so
you were born the second year that I was calling
Broncos games. Yep, wow, you.

Speaker 3 (22:37):
Been That was thirty thirty six years. That's play by play, No.

Speaker 2 (22:41):
So the first actually five and a half. So I
did the last year that Larry Zimmer was doing play
by play. He did play by play for home games
and I did color, and then I did the play
by play for road games, and we had a like
a rotating color analyst every game. And that was because Larry,

(23:05):
I think he was also doing CU football, so there
were there were a couple of games that were really
close to getting him there.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
So yeah, compla. We did it for sixteen roach. Wow,
there's some great stories about.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
Like thousand was the first year and twenty fifteen was
the last year.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
Okay too, that's right. We moved into this building. So
there's a funny.

Speaker 4 (23:27):
Story about Roach and I in an elevator, not like that,
but we were literally because we used to.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
Do the same shift at the same time.

Speaker 4 (23:35):
He was on the Fox and I was on KVPI Middays,
and so we had ended up going up in the
elevator one day here at this building. And it was
two thousand and it was right when one of our
other guests is going to come on later on g
Man didn't take because it was going to be g
Man doing the morning show on KOWA and sidelines, and
he decided not to do that.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
And then I told Roach and the elvera said, hey,
did you hear? And Roach was like, I will have
that job.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
What's the Mark Stout? Is that who was doing it? Right?

Speaker 1 (24:09):
I think Mark was doing it before you.

Speaker 3 (24:11):
Mark, that's right, Mark Stout was doing Colorado's morning news
and sideline report.

Speaker 1 (24:17):
Hey, Roach, what year did you start on the Fox?

Speaker 3 (24:22):
Ninety one?

Speaker 1 (24:23):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (24:23):
Wow, So I've got a Roach story going back to
the beginning, before anybody knew about Allen Roach. Our program
director called me into his office, Jack Evans, Oh.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
Jack, and he goes, hey, listen to this, dude.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
You got to hear this guy's tape and I sit
down and he played your air check tape and he.

Speaker 3 (24:42):
Goes, what do you think Colorado Springs?

Speaker 2 (24:44):
Probably, yes, was Colorado Springs. He goes, what do you think?
So we hire him? I said, hell, yeah, we should
hire him. Listen to those pipes and I'll never forget that.
And you come on, and when you look back at
the career you've had, I'm still here at the Fox
and now you're calling.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Super Bowls all over the world. Man, congratulations, But I
opened that door for you. I just want you to
know that. Thank Rick, Yeah, thank me. You're welcome, Broach.
And I could have said no, I could have said no,
don't hire that dude. That's funny.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
I love your stories about when when Roach was doing sidelines,
back when you guys had to wear like suits on
the plane, right, And I know now having been on
the sidelines, you're in all the elements and this and that,
and so Roach would have to change. Yeah, you'd have
to change right after a game and put your suit
back on.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
Roach probably, and he didn't even try to.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
Right of all of us, he probably pissed the Broncos
off more than anybody on the broadcast team. And one
of those things was because he had I mean, we've
done a game. Where was the game Miami.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
Or Tampa.

Speaker 3 (25:51):
We had to wear suits on the plane. Yes, we
had to wear suits on the plane on the way out.
We had to wear suits on the plane on the
way back. So, yeah, I'm in Miami and it's you know,
ninety six degrees and ninety more percent humidity and probably
rained twice during the game. And so I've been standing
outside for five and a half hours. And then I
go back in, you know, like year five, and I

(26:12):
go back to the locker room and after all the
players are done taking a shower. Then that's when some
of the staff had go in and take a shower.
Well for those first for a year a few years,
they allowed me to go in and take a shower. Well,
so I'm you know, waiting and waiting and waiting for
the time that they say, okay, you can go take
a shower. And that time never came. And I was
told by rep from the Broncos, yeah, you're not You're

(26:35):
not showering anymore.

Speaker 1 (26:39):
One more shower for suit.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
And it was like, because you're not, you're not part
of the broncos you're part of the media and we don't.
We don't cater to the media. Okay, well do I
have to I need at least someplace to change clothes.
Well you got a bus, don't you?

Speaker 1 (27:00):
Actually I do? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (27:02):
So yeah. For years after that then I had to
go no matter what we were doing outside and you know,
seven below or outside in ninety seven degrees after the game,
after being outside for five and a half hours, I
go get on a bus and change my clothes.

Speaker 1 (27:22):
Wow, into your suit. I'm so thankful I don't have
to change. Yeah, I mean things have become a bit
more lenient, they have, for sure. Yeah, So ruf, what
do you got?

Speaker 2 (27:33):
Obviously, as Rick said, you're doing so many things, and
I think anybody who's ever worked with you is proud
that your career has taken off the way that it has.
But what's what's next? What's going up this summer? What's
coming up? You're going back and you're the uh, the
PA announcer for the Vikings but in the ads still here.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
But what else do you got going?

Speaker 3 (27:56):
I've took down with Major League Baseball the last well,
I guess really four or five even six years now,
and in their marquee events. I did both the Field
of Dreams games in Iowa. I did all every game
that's ever been played in London for Major League Baseball.
I've announced those and now this year AMLB is not

(28:19):
going to London, but they are. They have asked me
to do the Home Run Derby and the All Star
Game in Atlanta.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Wow, that's awesome. That's a cool thing.

Speaker 3 (28:30):
You know what else Roach is doing doing those games
and then they're all Major League Baseball is playing a
game at Bristol Motor Speedway.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
I just I just discovered something else about your Roach.
I have a six year old grandson playing club baseball.
I went to his last game and the opposing team
now betting Mikey McGillicutty for the Serpentine. I'm like, that's Roach.
He know you did the announcement.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
You were the walk up voice for like these six
year old kids. Man, did you know that?

Speaker 3 (29:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (29:08):
Did he know?

Speaker 3 (29:09):
With Dave probably two months ago. I didn't start that
until the first of March, last few days of February.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
Okay, Saw, I thought maybe you were a friend of
somewhere and the team or something.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
Now March April, May June. So four months. In four months,
I bet I have announced close to seventy thousand names.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
Whoa wow wow. So you just send in the names
and they just they use them.

Speaker 3 (29:37):
It's an app.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
It's a.

Speaker 3 (29:40):
Wonderful app. It's been around for years and years. It
operated without me for eighty seven years, I think, and
then they invited me this year and yeah, it's it's inexpensive.
It's four bucks a kid that's his name. Wow, four bucks.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
That's worse.

Speaker 3 (29:58):
It can use it for the whole ethan and they
you know, you can have now batting, you can have
great cats, you can have stolen base, you can have
all these things that are pre recorded and you just
hit buttons in this app. You you basically need a
DJ for your game to sit there and run all
of that stuff, because certainly the coach can't do it.
One of the parents has to do it. But it's

(30:21):
wildly popular. Seventy thousand names and there's eight announcers and
the other announcers do names too.

Speaker 4 (30:27):
So.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
Thousand the entire in this business.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
The masks were that easy.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
Yeah, it was it was a that's genius, A.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
Great paying gig for four months to say the least.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
That's awesome. Well, we wanted the.

Speaker 3 (30:50):
Best part is it's great paying for me, but it's
super inexpensive for the people that are buying us.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
