I don't like how you said hard right, but yeah, Hi.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
It's a ninety degree. It's like a bam, It's like right, huh.
She's the aag, the all American girl. Yeah, the patriot
we need in times like this. Okay, Oh, she thought
I was talking about politics when I said hard right?

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Yes, what is she down in the middle?

Speaker 3 (01:44):
If you know her, I think she's very moderate except
when it comes to hot music opinions. And that's why
coming up today at four point thirty, don't miss it
Christina's cookie jar as we get into some rock and
Roll Hall of Fame announcement, Who's playing, who's presenting? We
have all the deats later in the show. Now, another
thing that's happening is we are giving away nine inch

(02:08):
Nails tickets speaking of rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Huge they went into the rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Was that like three years ago?

Speaker 3 (02:15):
Two years ago?

Speaker 7 (02:16):
I don't know, but I can't say. The talkback lights
up every time we give those tickets.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Is that right?

Speaker 3 (02:21):
Oh my god?

Speaker 1 (02:22):
People want those tickets. I want those tickets too.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
Got to be listening some point today during the show,
we're gonna give them away. There's gonna be you have
to use it with your iHeart app. Christina just mentioned
the talkback feature on your iHeart app. There's a microphone,
you click it and you can leave us talkback messages. Well,
we use that to also give away badass tickets. So
if you don't have the iHeart app, download it now.
It's free, and then it's going to reference something in

(02:44):
the show, and the first person that jumps in has
the right answer gives us the goods. You are going
to win those tickets. I have not seen nine inch
nails have either of y'all. No, no, I of them
in high school. That's a great story, man, if we
could save that story time later, tool too or just
not a tool. Okay, I want to get into that

(03:07):
story of you having that shirt at some point today
topic preacher thought I was going to hell. I really
liked Christina's point yesterday about not being willing to wear
a ramone shirt even though it's a cool shirt, because
she hasn't done the deep dive.

Speaker 7 (03:21):
Sure.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
I very much remember Kevin Durant after an NBA playoff game.
I believe he was wearing a Clash shirt and I
was like, man, that mf or has no idea who's
in the clash, what any.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Of their songs.

Speaker 3 (03:35):
Are you are posing so hard?

Speaker 7 (03:38):
I saw a video over the weekend. Go ahead, no, no, no,
I was going to congratulate you. I'm not being a poser. Yeah, well,
I don't think it really matters anymore. And I feel
like we've brought this up before, but there is a
girl who posted a video and she's filming herself and
she's crying. She's wearing a Nirvana shirt. She goes, guys,
it finally happened. This guy ran out of the cornfields,
ran up to me and said, name three Nirvana songs

(03:58):
right now. And she's again, she's doing great job, like
faking acting crying.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
Right She's like, I couldn't remember.

Speaker 7 (04:04):
I said smells like teen spirit, which I screwed up
because everyone's gonna say that that's so wame. And then
and then she said I wish you were dumb, and
then anyway, and so she's like, I just I finally
had the moment and I totally screwed it up, and
she just keeps crying, and it's just so funny that
we do have that weird mentality of like, yeah, I
don't want to be a poser. I want to make

(04:24):
sure I know at least three. I don't know why
three is the number. At least three songs of whatever
band shirt I'm wearing.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
Three is the magic number and gets you in it
is there is something too though, I mean, you can whatever.
The young generation just wears whatever. Yeah, Like my son
was wearing a Reservoir Dog shirt. He had no idea
what it was, no clue, and when he got the shirt,
I was like, you know your homeboy. He's got a
friend that's an aspiring filmmaker that loves Tarantino. I go,

(04:52):
you know your homeboy, Coop. He knows all the Tarantino movies.
In fact, I've had a conversation with him before about
Reservoir Dog and he's just looking at me like, cool story, Bro,
Can I leave now? Like, I don't want to hear
your crap. I just want to go about on my business.
But I've had this conversation with my wife before when
it comes to even just decorating, like whatever you hang

(05:15):
on your wall, whatever you wear, whatever shirt you decide
to wear. I guess my opinion is that I never
want to do that frivolously, and so unless it's some
super badass design that just blows my mind. Like I
would never wear Like if it was the dopest Garth

(05:36):
Brooks design, ever, then I might consider wearing it.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
Oh, the G logo is that it? I don't know,
you could be a real G.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Yeah, okay, well but you get my point. It was
kind of like when people first get out get a
home or a big apartment or whatever and they go
to back. I don't even know it does peer one
exists anymore? Peer one imports. I mean, I've heard of it.
It used to be like, think of it the same
way you would be container store. Yes, but you would
go and it would have prints, not the artists. They

(06:07):
would have Yeah, canvas is framed print. Sure, and it's like, oh,
here's the same matist tree that everyone buys and puts
in their dining room the very first time they have
space to hang something. And so my thought was always
I don't really want to hang something unless it means
something to one or both of us, Like I don't
want to just put something on the wall just because

(06:29):
I wanted to have some kind of meaning, And that's
the whole point of art in the first place. It
was like, I did this, This has meaning to me.
I connect to it and I'm representing it. And that's
the way I feel like when people wear band shirts.
You used to wear a band shirt because you wanted
people to know this is my band. And if you
see someone, you guys make the eye contact like, oh

(06:50):
you're one of my people.

Speaker 8 (06:51):
Tell yeah, right, and that happens strangers that were the
same band t shirts of a band I like, I
think love it.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
I think the Internet killed meaning well that's.

Speaker 8 (06:59):
Say, yeah, year all of the pre internet erow. Yeah
sounds weird to say, because Christina and I are are young.
Let's face it, Christina and I are still very young,
are you? But you know Christina and I are old
enough to have touched the little grass out there. Oh
go outside and play in the backyard, you know. Uh wow,
Christina and I were probably lying in the backyard huh nine.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
Or ten when you would get oh, we have a home.

Speaker 8 (07:24):
We have got a family computer now that we're see
if the connection work, and then everyone just gets mad
at each other because someone's got to be on the phone.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
The hard thing for the family computer is people don't
realize your parents can check your search history, and that
always caused a really uncomfortable thing for the family.

Speaker 7 (07:40):
Not even well, yeah, oh my god, my kid's doing what?
Uh do you remember Zinga kat This was like a
blog and.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
He's not a Zenga person, but I remember it okay.

Speaker 7 (07:51):
And I was a teenage girl writing my blog on
the internet about how much I hated my dad, and
my dad definitely found it very.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
Upset with me.

Speaker 7 (08:00):
Oh you can read that. Sorry, didn't know.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
I kind of like the drop of her. I was
a teenage girl, you know what she just said that. See,
it feels like a really good, out of context drop
that we can play with. Christina thought up, Vincent, what
year were you a? Yeah? All right, we got stuff
to do. Let's quit farting around. Action Pack show, nine
inch Nails, tickets to be given away, lots of stuff

(08:23):
to make happen. But coming up next, I'm going to
tell you guys, a young Hollywood filmmaker has the best
opinion on the comment section and we're gonna share.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
It with you next.

Speaker 3 (08:35):
Ben and Skin Show ninety seven point one The Eagle
a bendless show. He's under the weather, but we're pretty
confident he'll be back tomorrow for a big Friday show,
and tomorrow as well as later today, we'll be giving
away nine inch nails tickets.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
We'll be listening for that.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
Also want to let you know this Saturday, October the eleventh,
the Levy Event Plaza on Los Colleen's Boulevard, Innerving, Texas
is going to host a great event that you can
be a part of.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
Heart is going to be out there.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
There's gonna be an iHeart team for the American Cancer
Society Making Strides against Breast Cancer. If you want to
know more about it, how you can help out, how
you can help the cause, go to Making Strides, walk
dot org, forward Slash North Texas. All right later in
the show, at the bottom of the hour. I'm very
interested in this because I grew up in the era
of magazines. Loved magazines, loved going with mama to the

(09:25):
grocery store and just spending the whole time at the
magazine aisle, picking up every magazine looking at it. My
old people, my age that love rock music, they bought Hit,
Parader or Circus or any of those rock magazines where
you'd have all the guitar gods in it. Rolling Stone
later there was Spin. Anyways, love all those old magazines.
We have the top twenty five greatest magazine covers of

(09:46):
all time. We'll get into that later, but right now
it's time for this.

Speaker 4 (09:52):
Skinny track, another edition of Things Skinners Tracking.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
Have you guys ever seen subway takes on Instagram or TikTok.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
No, I'll tell you yesterday. All right, it's a dude.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
You know, everyone's just looking for quick content in a
weird place, like I bet tomorrow we end up talking
about Luca going on that wing thing.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
What's that called hot Ones?

Speaker 3 (10:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (10:14):
Hot Ones is huge, though, I mean how one's is. Yeah, yeah,
I know it's it's it's a huge deal.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
And then there's one that I really like where there's
a guy and he goes and plays music for famous
people like David Byrne or you know, I saw him
do one with Saint Vincent Annie from Dallas and it's
like playing songs do you know the artists and talk
about it blah blah blah. So I love those, you know,
short form content things. Well, there's one called subway Takes

(10:40):
and it's a dude interviewing famous people on a subway. Well,
I got sent one yesterday and it's my nephew, Cooper Riife,
who is a filmmaker and actor and director in Hollywood.
He's had a couple pretty big things. Happy, He's got
a new series getting ready to come out, Alan Harper,
so he's going to start doing the promo stuff. So
I guess his pr person booked him on subway takes.

(11:03):
I have no idea, but it showed up. It's pretty short.
I want to play it and then I want to
talk about this idea. Go ahead and play this KT.

Speaker 6 (11:11):
So what's your take?

Speaker 5 (11:11):
Who should only read reviews after you have experienced the thing?

Speaker 4 (11:17):
Disagree?

Speaker 5 (11:17):
But the way that you're going through life is because
of Karen's Yelp reviews.

Speaker 9 (11:21):
What if I want to go check out a film,
uh huh and the reviews are poor, Yeah, and I'm like,
I'm gonna watch it at home.

Speaker 5 (11:27):
So it's capitalism telling you where to put your money.

Speaker 6 (11:31):
And attention and then the cream rises to the top.

Speaker 5 (11:33):
And what I think is that because of that, everyone
who's making something is making something that is going to
get a good review, because that's the only way the
thing will be seen.

Speaker 6 (11:42):
But if we start telling people, you're only allowed to.

Speaker 5 (11:44):
Read this review after you have had your own locke, Yeah, like,
watch a trailer watch an interview, look at pictures of
the restaurant, read the back of the book. But I
don't think that you should be reading about someone's experience
with the thing that you're about to experience, because as
it forms your experience in a way that we're all
going to be the same person as the last time

(12:06):
a review made you decide not to do something.

Speaker 6 (12:08):
When's the last time a review tainted my experience? Every
single time?

Speaker 5 (12:12):
Sure, And I think it's led to you look at
the comments to decide how you feel about something, and
that's terrible.

Speaker 9 (12:18):
Some things, like art, maybe I can agree with, Like
maybe don't read the Some people don't even.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
Watch the trailer. I actually don't watch the.

Speaker 6 (12:24):
Trailer about I wish that there was less of it.

Speaker 5 (12:28):
Like I wish my friends would tell me less about
their experiences of things that they know that I'm about to.

Speaker 6 (12:33):
Experience, because it just I don't know who I am. Afterwards,
my boy wants to go monk mode. I think reviews
should be like support groups. Like you experienced something and
then that movie was so bad. I want to commiserate.

Speaker 9 (12:45):
Oh, I want to connect with others I also thought
it was bad.

Speaker 5 (12:47):
Yes, or learn about other people who actually loved it
because you know what you felt, and then maybe you
weren't thinking about it in this critical way. And then
you go and say like, here's what I thought about
this thing.

Speaker 6 (12:57):
What do you think about this?

Speaker 7 (12:59):
Yeah, it's called Reddit by the way.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
Yeah, I agree one hundred percent.

Speaker 8 (13:03):
It's why I didn't want you to say a single
word about one battle after another.

Speaker 3 (13:07):
I felt like I did a good job of refraining,
even though I was dying to talk about it.

Speaker 8 (13:12):
And I know, did I give away too much? No,
but you sent a Sean Penn thing that I clicked on.

Speaker 3 (13:18):
Oh you did this interview.

Speaker 7 (13:19):
I thought you guys both did a good job of
not saying because when I when I went to go
see it, I told you, guys, I had no idea
what I was getting into. I knew you liked it though,
which probably swayed my opinion a little bit.

Speaker 8 (13:30):
But for sure, and look, it's a hard movie to
just put it like here's what it you know, Yeah,
it's hard to take a whole time.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
I tried to describing it to my dad the other night,
and it's like, oh, Dad, you gotta see it.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
Man.

Speaker 8 (13:43):
Cooper's right, though I can't tell you how many times
it's happened to me. You hear something about an album
and you go and you listen to it, and you
might like it because someone else said it was good,
and that should never happen.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
You should make these decisions on your own.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
Yeah, you're a real human in this world.

Speaker 3 (13:57):
Use yourself.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
How do you feel?

Speaker 3 (13:59):
I I really like, I really like figuring out things
on my own, and especially like you know, there's a
lot of chatter with content about quote unquote easter eggs.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
Did you see this Easter egg?

Speaker 3 (14:11):
It's like, yeah, I would have loved to have figured
that out on my own, Yeah, instead of having you
tell me about the Easter egg? Right. And I feel
that way with you know, music, and now once someone
has seen it, I love talking about it with them
or once they've heard it.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
How do you Okay?

Speaker 3 (14:29):
What about I mean, my wife lives in the reviews.
I don't know that we've ever gone to a restaurant
that she didn't go read reviews first. I'll know we've
ever stayed in a hotel that she didn't go read
reviews first. Maybe I feel a little bit different about
that than I do. I absolutely do. Yeah, a little
more money being spent there, right, But if it comes
to a record or a book or a movie or

(14:51):
a show or whatever, I want to experience that on
my own and then talk about it with people who
have already seen.

Speaker 7 (14:55):
But also so restaurant things. I mean, I agree, I
always look at the reviews first, but you could have
a completely different waiting staff on duty that day. Yeah,
someone could be having a really bad day. Something could
have happened to them.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
They could.

Speaker 7 (15:07):
I mean, they shouldn't treat anyone differently. They might treat
someone differently than someone else. You know, that's a whole
side plot.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
I don't want to give anything away.

Speaker 3 (15:14):
But in the Bear, they're waiting for a big restaurant review, right,
and you know, and they're like, well, we don't want
to treat them different, you know, And there's that whole
thing going on.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
That's also a thing in Black Rabbit.

Speaker 8 (15:24):
I went to a place Sunday night, and just because
the aura I was giving off made me think they
were giving me a little extra special treatment, like this
guy might have the power to make us a four
or a four point five on open table.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
Dude.

Speaker 8 (15:37):
So a restaurant said, when you book a restaurant, always
say it's your anniversary.

Speaker 3 (15:43):
Oh yeah, they'll they'll roll it out. And you just
went to a restaurant that replaced a restaurant called Homewood,
And Homewood was started by this guy that had a
restaurant called FT thirty three that me and my wife
used to love and used to go to, you know,
all the time. And I remember, you may remember this,
you may not. I had experience at Homewood that we
talked about on the radio when we were on one

(16:03):
oh five to three and people from the radio from
the restaurant were listening and they hit us up, and
yeah it was it was pretty cool. But yeah, I
just I agree with that whole idea of try not
to live your life in the review section or the
comments section. All right. Been in Skin Show ninety one
point one, The Eagle coming up next, the twenty five
greatest magazine covers of all time? Have you seen these images?

(16:25):
We'll get into it with you, Okay.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
I saw this in the New York Times.

Speaker 8 (16:37):
It was the top twenty five most influential magazine covers
of all time, all right, which I was like, any
type of list will grab my attention pretty quickly. But
I really thought you could help with the historical perspective
on some of these. You should go through a few
in order. Here number one they have on there. Oh
you're going in reverb. I'm just going regular.

Speaker 3 (16:55):
Looks fun.

Speaker 8 (16:56):
I don't think they were really trying to rank them
all and they were collecting them twenty five that really matter.
This takes us to April nineteen sixty eight with Esquire.
It's got to be the Moonlight. Wait, that's sixty nine, right,
it's Muhammad Ali. Is he standing over the dude? Nope,
it's not that he's actually standing, but he's got a
bunch of arrows being shot into him and he's bleeding.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Wow.

Speaker 8 (17:18):
I don't think I've ever seen that. It looks really cool.
So that after he refused the US Army draft, Yeah,
that was of he had religious grounds that he went with. Yeah,
and that was after he had changed his name from
Cassius clad I don't know what year he did that.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
And they wouldn't let him box for a few years.
There's actually a documentary on Netflix right now called Blood
Brothers about the relationship between Muhammad Ali and Malcolm X.
And it's really really interesting and a guy that I
know through our Buddy. Paul Shaldon did the soundtrack, and
if you want to hear their music, go see the
Budos Ban on November twenty first at the Granada Theater.

(17:56):
But Tom Brenneck of Amy Winehouse Fame Sharon owns Budos Ban.
He did the soundtrack to it. It's really really interesting stuff.

Speaker 8 (18:04):
They have on here. National Lampoon nineteen seventy three, okay,
and it's got to be a Nixon thing. It says
if you don't buy this magazine, we'll kill this dog.
Oh my gosh, and holding a gun up to the
head of a dog that I was looking sideway.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
It's like, oh, that's great.

Speaker 3 (18:25):
And that's all the people that you know basically went
on to start Saturday Night Live. Yeah, they all came
from National Earth, some of them came from National imput look,
you have to buy it.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
We will do this. We're serious.

Speaker 7 (18:38):
So it's not a cartoon dog either, No, it's real. Okay,
that's amazing.

Speaker 8 (18:42):
All you see is the hand and the gun up
to his head. Another one, A Moment of Joy twenty thirteen,
is The New Yorker, and so it's basically when they
legalize gay marriage, but watching on a TV set is
Ernie leaning on Bert. It's like the back of their
heads watching the TV. It's so funny looking.

Speaker 7 (19:04):
So that's where we got. That's where that all started, right,
they just assumed they were a gay couple, and so
now we all assume they're a gay couple.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
I think it probably started before that, and they're leaning
on on that.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
Okay, no kind of pop culture riff.

Speaker 3 (19:16):
I think it started when they were sleeping together.

Speaker 8 (19:19):
We were relatively they were adults, and you know what
Bert gave this energy of the angry, closeated gay man.
Yeah you know Ernie, Hey, guys, here I am yeah, come.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
And get it.

Speaker 8 (19:33):
Bertie was sweet, Bert was bottled up. I think it
was the yeah, that little unifrow.

Speaker 4 (19:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (19:40):
Uh speaking of gay nineteen ninety seven, Time Magazine.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
Oh it's gonna be Ellen degenerous.

Speaker 8 (19:45):
Yeah, she's leaning at she's crouched and says, Yep, I'm.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
Gay, Yep, I'm gay.

Speaker 7 (19:51):
Nineteen seventy.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Yeah, she's Do you guys remember that y'all were six
or seven or I remember a little bit.

Speaker 8 (19:59):
About but not enough to care because I didn't really
know who she was that well, do.

Speaker 3 (20:04):
You remember this scene or have you ever seen the
scene where she the character came out on the show.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
I've seen it in hindsight. It was her.

Speaker 3 (20:11):
Talking to Laura Dern and she accidentally leans in on
a microphone at an airport and announces it to the
whole airport.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
Okay, it's pretty funny.

Speaker 8 (20:19):
I've seen Ben grabbed the microphone at Lax and start
telling people at the baggage claim and just start freestyling
on it before.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
It's kind of crazy.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
It was insane. I saw it just nine to eleven
to do that.

Speaker 3 (20:30):
I saw Nick Cage do it on a flight with
Charlie Sheen and Charlie Hume had drug strapped to his buddy.

Speaker 8 (20:38):
I don't know about this one nineteen sixty six Esquire.
It's just a quote to us, Oh my god, we
hit a little girl, and it's about the Vietnam War.
Oh hi, choking magazine cover.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
So what you have to realize about that is that
was the first time in American history where real images
and like film like actual footage of the carnage of
war made it back to America. And so it that
moment changed the idea of patriotism forever. So they're leaning

(21:14):
in on Wait a minute, so when war children get killed.
I'd never really had to think about that before. It's
you know, the Horrors of War New York Magazine, two
thousand and eight. What do you remember about Elliott Spitzer?

Speaker 1 (21:28):
He was the Was he the Attorney general?

Speaker 3 (21:30):
Or he was in New York and he had a
lot of shocking dms of affairs and things like that.
They it's just a picture of him smiling but pointing
at his crotch as the word brain.

Speaker 8 (21:44):
Oh, was he sending dong picks? He was sending dong pics. Yes,
that was a that was always a crazy name to like.
I remember that from pop culture.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
Yeah, I can't remember.

Speaker 3 (21:55):
He was like attorney general or he had I can't
remember what his office was in State of New York.

Speaker 8 (22:00):
When we come back, how about pregnant women, John Lennon
climbing another person naked and more.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
That's next biz.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
The Ben and Skin Show. Ben is still a little
bit sick, but he's.

Speaker 8 (22:12):
Back tomorrow for a Friday party and it's gonna be
lit a wild story about Kevin Costner, just teasing.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
Forward out there. I'm excited. Oh boy, he has made
some enemies and.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
I'm telling you it's ready to go today, but I'm
waiting on Ben to get back. Yeah, we need to
do that segment without Ben. We need Big Ben Costner
back to do that segment.

Speaker 8 (22:33):
We were doing the top magazine covers of all time,
a little list that came out, and looking at these
is kind of crazy because I do enjoy like the magazine.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Yeah, I don't know how often I have it anymore.
I have D Magazine. Outside of that, I'm not collecting
a lot of magazines. Unfortunately.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
The New D magazine with Dirk on the cover so great,
that's wonderful.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
It's wonderful.

Speaker 3 (22:56):
Just pick it up with.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
John Lennon is naked and nineteen eighty one with the
Yoko Ono. It's on the cover of Rolling Stone.

Speaker 3 (23:04):
Yes, it's the Rolling Stone.

Speaker 8 (23:06):
Yoko Ono's laying down, he's naked, butt naked, and his
left leg is kind of climbing like she's the tree
and he's the monkey.

Speaker 3 (23:17):
He's getting ready to try and spoon her, but she's
not in spoon mode. Yeah, and you should get a
little bit of his butt crack.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
That's great.

Speaker 3 (23:23):
And I even know this cover. It's iconic, very iconic,
because didn't they have a is this around the time
they did the leven. I think they did a big
love in where they were Gonna be and I can't
read the details, but all the press came and took
pictures of.

Speaker 8 (23:38):
Him and they were in bed and blah blah blah.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Ooh, I think it's around that tie.

Speaker 3 (23:43):
Maybe.

Speaker 8 (23:44):
So when did he die? Nineteen eighty So this cover
came out in nineteen eighty one. Uh, well, then that
must have been.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
Can you look up? Can somebody look up the day
he died?

Speaker 3 (23:56):
Because I thought it was nineteen eighty when they were
they Actually so he did an album, yeah, and it
was December eighth, nineteen eighty. Okay, but December eighth, nineteen eighty,
so that was probably January eighty one, right, yeah, say
it's probably like their dedication to John Oh yeah.

month later.

Oh, it's a great song.

Speaker 8 (24:26):
Madonna nineteen ninety and a magazine called Interview. Okay, she's
wearing fishnet stockings, short shorts and she's kind of grabbing
her crotch. Hell yeah, she just kind of did the
Michael Jackson. Oh, I bet very strange.

already divorced from Sean Penn by this time.

Speaker 8 (24:49):
And your little Sean pin Yeah ninety, he had sounds
ract I think she was done with him in eighty
eight or eighty nine.

Speaker 1 (24:55):
Okay, so that was a big one apparently. Oh yeah, one.

Speaker 8 (25:00):
I actually do remember this one because it was ten
years ago New York magazine. It's called an Unwelcome Sisterhood,
and it's all of the women that had complaints about
Bill Cosby. Oh god, and the Home magazine cover is

(25:20):
full of these lady.

Drinks, have my coffee, my protein shake, animid water. Yeah,

it sounds like a napkin will help. He can use
his human hands during the napkin No use the concrete napkins.

Speaker 5 (25:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (25:57):
Then so another magazine? Well, before you keep is there
anything that a magazine cover of your time that you
remember like? Well, obviously we like sports, so I've seen
a ton of.

Speaker 3 (26:12):
You know, the one I'm thinking of is the Sports
Illustrated one after the earthquake when the Giants were in
the World Series. Also, I would remember when the ride
around that same time when the Berlin Wall came down.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
Those come to mind.

Speaker 8 (26:28):
What else?

Speaker 1 (26:29):
What else you got? Okay?

Speaker 3 (26:30):
So this is interesting. This You're going to be some

Oh uh, there's your uh, you know famous.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
It's good. I thought that was it was.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
It says, you know, we like to deliver the news
with perspective.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
Here on the Eagle.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
Coming up next, we have a news quickie. Uh, let's
talk about how a lot of kids are in ai
relationships and it's troubling.

Speaker 4 (28:39):
Give me that news quickie.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
Oh uh oh.

Speaker 8 (28:44):
One in five Americans now regularly get news on TikTok.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
I actually thought it would be higher.

Speaker 3 (28:52):
Let me just say two and four Americans in my
household get their news from TikTok.

Speaker 7 (28:59):
Yeah, which is is the accuracy of it that worries me?

Speaker 8 (29:03):
You know, oh, one hundred percent. The misinformation is the
train has left the station.

Speaker 3 (29:10):
Yeah. I can't tell you how many pieces of information
about current affairs or world news. I've heard my children's
state boldly as fact that I'm like, what where did
you get that crap?

Speaker 1 (29:25):
It was on TikTok?

Speaker 8 (29:26):
So one in five is twenty percent? That's right, dad,
I'm gonna read this headline again very slowly. One in
five Americans now regularly get news on TikTok in twenty twenty.
What percent of Americans got their news from TikTok in
twenty twenty?

Speaker 3 (29:44):
Did we know it was a thing?

Speaker 1 (29:45):
Yeah? Three percent? It's three percent?

Speaker 3 (29:49):
Have you America? I number one?

Speaker 5 (29:52):
Dang?

Speaker 8 (29:53):
So if it's three percent to twenty percent, if we're
just following the growth here, I was getting thirty. Yeah,
I mean that would be seventeen. But I think inflation,
you have to added inflation add a couple more percents, but.

Speaker 7 (30:11):
The interest rate might throw that.

Speaker 1 (30:13):
Okay, I have a lot of interest rate talk here
on the Eagle.

Speaker 8 (30:19):
Yeah, I don't. Uh, I don't look at TikTok too
much for a reason. I mean, I remember look at it.
We had the very first day we were on the Egal,
Mark Cuban was in studio and we were just talking
about a lot of things, but we were just talking about
talking about TikTok, and TikTok was more prevalent in February
of twenty twenty, a month before COVID.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
Oh yeah, but he.

Speaker 8 (30:40):
Was talking about how the NBA has got to you know,
understand that kids are going to be looking at TikTok
and they're going to be looking at highlights and it
is addicting, was it? And he was talking about the
addictive nature of it. And I've always like been like
not saying everything that Cuban says is gospel to me,
but that one was like, and then you just look
around and see how people get TikTok and kind of

(31:01):
can't stop it. But He'm like, you know, I don't
need that. I'll it was time to time, but I
don't like to be there.

Speaker 3 (31:06):
He was looking at it too from the perspective of
marketing the NBA. And let me just tell you, my
son never I never tried to push the NBA on
my son. My son found the NBA by watching highlights
on TikTok and got real into it and got real
knowledgeable about it, completely independent of me, who works on
an NBA broadcast and has for almost twenty years, think

(31:29):
about that. He had the ability to walk down the
hall and ask me anything, have access to anything.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
He never once.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
It wasn't until he had educated himself and then we
started having debates and conversations and it was really fun.
I had nothing to do with it. It was all from
highlights on TikTok. Then I would be watching the game
and he had no interest in watching it.

Speaker 4 (31:52):
Huh.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
He just wanted to see the highlights.

Speaker 7 (31:54):
Yeah, it's too long.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
That's long of a game. And it's like Cuban had
kids that were of the age, so he knew. Yeah right,
and so is your business has to change with the times.
There was a lot of people that got real upset
when Adam Silver a month ago or two months ago
publicly said we're a league of highlights.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
Sure.

Speaker 3 (32:14):
And man, I can't tell you how much self righteous
chest out stuff I heard from people in the NBA
or who cover the NBA about that, And I'm like,
he just stated what was fact. He's not saying don't
watch games. They suck if you igno. It's kind of
like the whole thing with gambling. So you're gonna stick
your head in the sand. It's kind of like streaming.

(32:36):
You're gonna act like it's not happening. Yeah, let me
know how that works out for you.

Speaker 8 (32:40):
You know, yesterday college football they made the decision that
college football players are allowed to bet on what like
they weren't allowing.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
I missed that story. You don't have to gamble on sports.

Speaker 8 (32:50):
Now because yeah now college football, No, can't gamble in
college football. Clearly, you're right, But it's like the NFL's
dealt with that. I mean, Calvin Ridley gets a spend
an entire year just because he bet on the NFL.
I have some more stuff, I might say, because I
think some percentages on where people are getting the news
on Facebook and YouTube and Instagram and WhatsApp.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
You have that stuff?

Speaker 3 (33:10):
Oh hell yeah, man, hell yeah, dude, hell yeah.

Speaker 7 (33:14):
Okay, he's excited about it, like December.

Speaker 3 (33:17):
Okay? Is that your way of saying? The segment is over?
How much time do we have left? I mean, by
my account, we have a minute. Oh I would love
to jam a little further than right.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
This is a.

Speaker 3 (33:28):
Topic that means a lot to me. So I'm glad
we're doing this.

Speaker 8 (33:32):
I think when you look at it, what percent do
you all think, are all right, guys, we're.

Speaker 3 (33:38):
Out of time for fine? For fine? What percent do.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
You think get it off Facebook?

Speaker 3 (33:45):
Get what off Facebook? Their news? I think? Yeah, did
he nail it again?

Speaker 1 (33:51):
Fifty?

Speaker 7 (33:53):
I'm sorry, I was just gonna say that's that's pretty accurate.

Speaker 3 (33:57):
Yeah, what about boobtube? What YouTube?

Speaker 7 (34:00):
Get news on YouTube?

Speaker 3 (34:01):
Yeah? Uh, probably just a percentage of people who consume YouTube,
which I don't know that number, so I would say.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
Forty two percent, forty one percent. Really good.

Speaker 7 (34:12):
Did you see this?

Speaker 1 (34:13):
I could not Instagram?

Speaker 3 (34:14):
Wow, Instagram is gonna be much lower because there's not
it's not really a news eighteen percent, forty one percent,
forty one thirty Twitter or X Yeah.

Speaker 7 (34:27):
Sixty nine.

Speaker 8 (34:30):
I think that's a good number that people like. I'm
gonna say fifty four, fifty seven percent. Jeez, read it, Yeah,
I read it. Suck it, losers, I read it. Twenty
two percent, thirty four, thirty five percent.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Really okay? Next door app? Next door app?

Speaker 3 (34:50):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (34:51):
What next door app?

Speaker 3 (34:52):
Okay?

Speaker 8 (34:53):
One percent thirteen thirty three percent. Dude, people are talking
news in the next door app? Trust all right, I
have to go in there and mess around with them
a little bit.

Speaker 3 (35:02):
Those are really good numbers, Kevin, Thank you for adding
to the commentary. Coming up next, This was a huge
moment in sports broadcasting history, and we will revisit. Okay,
it's Dennis Miller on Monday Night Football next. Now to
some point one the Eagle don't forget nine inch nails.
Ticket's got to be listening to win. Gotta have an
iHeart at now. This segment right here is brought to

(35:24):
you by Frankelin Frankel two p. One four three three,
three thirty three thirty three. Those are our guys. Love
them Frankel and Frankel. They've been partners with the show
since two thousand and eight, and they take care of people.
Between Mark, Scott and Gene, they have ninety years of
experience getting you the money you deserve, deserve when you
get hurt in a wreck or on the job site.

(35:45):
Franklin Frankel. But right now it's time for this.

Speaker 10 (35:49):
Now.

Speaker 4 (35:50):
This is cool around the sports KTD twins as all
the sports.

Speaker 3 (35:57):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 8 (36:00):
Okay, So way back in the day, someone are my
good friend, good friend and good friend Texas Carter sent
me this videos and check it out, dude. It's like
twenty minute on Mini doc and when Dennis Miller got
into the Monday Night a football booth and it was awesome.
It was pretty pretty great. Pulled some audio from it
for a second. I do remember you.

Speaker 1 (36:19):
Remember this when this happened.

Speaker 8 (36:20):
I do, because it was I mean, I was around
eleven or twelve, so I knew it was going on,
and I wanted to be a play by play broadcaster grown,
so it was like, you know, followed this crap. I'm
one of those people who does care who's broadcasting the
games each week. Like I still in that way, So,
you know, back then in the nineties though, the cable
boom had happened, so you have dents in the ratings
for NBC and Fox and ABC and CBS. The networks

(36:41):
were kind of fighting that off. By two thousand, Monday
Night Football's ratings were declining, which, since sounds crazy now,
one reason they were declining is because so many young
men were watching Monday Night Raw on WFA test That
is the Rock, that is Stone called Steve Austin, That's Kine,
that's the Undertaker, and it was okay. At the time,

(37:02):
Rick Flair and hul Cogan were at WCW and it
was a little different.

Speaker 1 (37:06):
This was edgy over here, and it was good.

Speaker 3 (37:08):
I'm so interested in that as a cultural phenomenon, but
I care so little about it in terms of like wrestling, Yeah,
but I'm interested in the cultural impact and how especially
people y'all's age, the way I see you guys talk
about it is fascinating to me.

Speaker 8 (37:23):
Okay, So they hire or they make a call to
Don Oldmeyer. Donaldmyer had just left at NBC. Donaldmyer is
the guy who you probably know because he's the guy
who fired Norm McDonald because Donal McDonald was making jokes
about OJ Simpson. Yes, there will be a documentary about
this on Peacock in two weeks. Called Downey wrote that
it's about Jim Downey, the greatest comedy writer SNL history,

(37:44):
and Downey was the one writing those jokes with Norm McDonald.
They're going to do a whole section on that OJ
Steven Wow.

Speaker 1 (37:50):
Cool. But Don Oldmeyer was the first guy. He was
some hack like.

Speaker 8 (37:53):
He was the first guy to produce Monday Night Football
in the seventies, so he did it as long as
he got full control. So here is Don Oldmar's plan.

Speaker 10 (38:02):
Meyer figured the quickest way to get some buzz for
the show was through a very public search. The original
choice was recently retired coaching legend Bill Parcels, but after
that deal fell through, the field opened up. Steve Young,
Nate Newton, Jimmy Johnson, Tom Jackson, and Robin Roberts were
all rumored candidates, but ultimately the only other athlete hired
was NFL Hall of Famer Dan Fouts. Olmyer wasn't done there,

(38:24):
as he wanted to try something radical for the show.
In his initial search, two candidates stood out to him.
First was Washington Post columnist Tony Kornheiser. The second was
conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh, who came pretty close
to landing the gig.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
Okay, well, so Rush Limbaugh almost got the job, and
here's why he didn't.

Speaker 10 (38:41):
Rush had begun publicly campaigning for the job on his
talk show and dominated any poll that presented him as
an option. The publicity led to an audition that must
have gone well, because Olmeyers seemed poised to hire him
before NFL Commissioner Paul Pagliabu allegedly told him it was
a terrible idea.

Speaker 1 (38:57):
I wonder why the commissioner was so against it.

Speaker 11 (38:59):
I don't think he has been that good from the
get go. I think what we've had here is a
little social concern in the NFL. I think the media
has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well.

Speaker 3 (39:10):
Okay, do you guys remember this? No because Limbaugh ended
up being on one of the studio shows okay on NBC,
and he lasted I think that clip. I don't know
if they show you, but he got removed. I don't
think he lasted a full season because he went in
on the black Quarterback thing.

Speaker 8 (39:29):
Yes, yeah, so he was on I don't know if
his CBS or NBC. He's on NBC.

Speaker 1 (39:32):
I remember this. So yeah, he they got.

Speaker 3 (39:35):
Him on a studio show and then they removed him
because he couldn't help but be rush.

Speaker 8 (39:38):
So they would do rush because Tagliboo basically said no.
So here's the next plan. It was to go get
Dennis Miller. He liked Dennis Miller. He was considering him
for like a funny halftime show because he liked him.
But he does rants. Here's one of his early games,
which actually Tom Brady's very first preseason game ever as well, he.

Speaker 10 (39:55):
Wasn't going as obscure as often as you think. Now
the pregame analys, well that's a whole other story.

Speaker 12 (40:02):
Yeah, it's hit the Fan and Jacksonville, al and everybody's
got this theory on ow Comflin's going to handle it,
seems a local citizen reassumes he's going to become Captain
blind start keel haul and and he presumed malcontent. The
local press has gotten even more paranoid. They thinking of
this Captain Twig hallucinating that their strut ferries missing from

(40:22):
the team's walk in fuller.

Speaker 1 (40:24):
What in the world he's amazing? Okay, so that's that's all.

Speaker 13 (40:31):
Are you guys old enough to remember Dennis Miller when
he was the I remember, and Snellen never liked him
because he was using words that were too big for
a six year old, and not only that, references that
were so obscure.

Speaker 7 (40:43):
Yeah, like that right there.

Speaker 1 (40:44):
Yeah, like what.

Speaker 3 (40:46):
It's it's so like you know, and that I don't
remember it being that insane. Uh, this is more from
his early days.

Speaker 12 (40:55):
And he beats on Al Davis like Buddy rich on
a snare drum when he knew gene Krupa was and
then in the.

Speaker 3 (41:00):
Back of the room.

Speaker 12 (41:01):
Indeed, his debut was so preternatural last year.

Speaker 3 (41:04):
One can only assume the Warners a ladder day Joe Hardy.

Speaker 1 (41:07):
He's just no one knows that.

Speaker 3 (41:11):
Dude. No one's gonna get those right. You guys know
who gene krup is he is a very famous jazz drummer.
Buddy Rich was just one notch more famous than Rich.

Speaker 8 (41:21):
Yeah, okay, And this is where it talks about how
this guy's review because they watched a bunch of his games.
He was like, it wasn't his bat he dialed it
down and once he stopped trying to prove to everyone
that he knew football and just that was a big
thing in his line. And he's like, Alan Dan actually
liked him too.

Speaker 10 (41:35):
With this clip right here, does a pretty remarkable job
of summing up what made their dynamics so fun.

Speaker 3 (41:40):
But what it does is.

Speaker 14 (41:41):
If you do that in the first yard, it sets
up your play action game. It's said, it makes the
defense come up, play man the man, and it opens
up the long pass for the Redskins, something they haven't
had so far in the first two games.

Speaker 1 (41:52):
Oh you men with your football talk.

Speaker 3 (41:54):
Second down, right, that's him responding to the criticism.

Speaker 8 (42:02):
Yes, because sports writers hated he got that opportunity to.

Speaker 3 (42:07):
Go do that, I'm going to use that drop so
much a man.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
In your football time.

Speaker 8 (42:11):
Didn't Cornheiser end up on Money Night Football that you
got it after him?

Speaker 3 (42:16):
Okay? And Madden got it for a few years, and
then Cornizer. I mean, I respect Corneizer, but I'm not
into him, Like I don't care what he says or
doesn't say.

Speaker 1 (42:24):
He's never moved the needle for me. That was funny
though he only did for one year.

Speaker 3 (42:28):
That's amazing. All right, good stuff there. Tizzle coming up
next and Christina's Cookie Jar. We have a list of
presenters or performers for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
We'll do a little guessing game and figure out who
is matched up with who next right here on the.

Speaker 4 (42:43):
East Christina's Cookie Jar.

Speaker 7 (43:13):
So the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, guys, we
are less than a month away. November eighth is when
that ceremony is happening in LA and it will be
live streaming on Disney. Plus.

Speaker 3 (43:24):
I believe seven.

Speaker 8 (43:24):
O'clock did they live stream that on Disney last year?
That I've streamed it for like seven hours. I watched
the whole thing.

Speaker 3 (43:31):
God, last year, I've only ever watched like the HBO
recap of it.

Speaker 1 (43:35):
That's two hours.

Speaker 8 (43:36):
Oh, I watched the whole seven hour thing and they
closed the Dave Matthews Band, so I could have really
jumped in halfway through and I did watch the whole thing.

Speaker 7 (43:43):
But see, when you watch the whole thing, you get
to see all the like little minor fun stuff that happened.

Speaker 8 (43:48):
Yeah, they take that out. There's so much crap they
added out. Yeah, really, you gotta watch the whole thing.
I'm good, Okay.

Speaker 7 (43:55):
Well, anyway, so we are less than a month away
November eighth, and they finally reveal the list of presenters
and performers. But what's fun about this list? I have
all the names right here, I have no idea who's
actually presenting and who's actually performing.

Speaker 8 (44:08):
Okay, some of these people could do both, okay, like
the double dip.

Speaker 7 (44:13):
Now, I do know one presenter here, which I guess
is pretty obvious.

Speaker 1 (44:17):
Anyway, you know for.

Speaker 7 (44:21):
Starting with Beck, okay, presenting for I'll go over every checker,
the nominees. Yeah, wait, who is presenting for? We don't know,
we don't know, we're guessing. We give me Who's I
don't know the inductees this year? Okay, bad Company, Chubby Checker,

(44:41):
like Katie just said, Joe Cocker, Cindy Lauper, Outcast, sound
Garden and the Wide Stripes. Also Salt and Peppa and
Warren Zevon.

Speaker 1 (44:56):
Warrens Yvonne is probably like a honorary thing.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
Yeah, okay, Pepa uh.

Speaker 7 (45:03):
And then we have Tom Bell, Nicky Hopkins, and Carol
Kay for musical excellence for writers and Lenny Warrenker.

Speaker 8 (45:11):
Yeah, they have those extra awards that are well deserving
to those who get it.

Speaker 1 (45:15):
Also, you're like, can we get.

Speaker 7 (45:17):
So these are? Yeah, those are all the inductees this here.

Speaker 3 (45:20):
I don't know who Beck is tied to there unless
they were trying to do something cheeky and have him
to be a part of Salt and Peppa. Well, it
could be performing for someone, of course, could be doing
a tribute, could be.

Speaker 1 (45:28):
A lot of different things. Did Beck ever work with
Jack White? I don't think so.

Speaker 8 (45:31):
Okay, I don't think.

Speaker 7 (45:32):
So either, so Joe Cocker maybe, Well.

Speaker 1 (45:36):
I got a couple guesses on some other.

Speaker 7 (45:37):
People, keep going Okay, Brandy Carlisle is next on the list.

Speaker 8 (45:41):
They just have her there to do everything, So she's
probably gonna award someone and I don't know.

Speaker 1 (45:45):
I I don't see her.

Speaker 3 (45:46):
I think of hers a great songwriter, and so I imagine
that might be a Warren Zevon timemorium.

Speaker 7 (45:52):
Yeah, yeah, okay, David Letterman.

Speaker 3 (45:55):
Oh, that's definitely Warren Zevon. Letterman is a huge Warren
Zevon fan.

Speaker 7 (46:00):
That's the only one I know he is presenting for Warren.

Speaker 1 (46:02):
You have a good speech.

Speaker 7 (46:04):
Doja Cat o Salt Peppa.

Speaker 3 (46:08):
Okay, they paved the way, like the whole idea like
they were the first well they were the first female
rappers to break through commercially. There was like Roxane Chante
and people like that before them, but they were the
ones that first had hits.

Speaker 8 (46:22):
So Doja Cat's gonna have to get out of that flower.
She was stuck here, I'm sorry, not last week.

Speaker 7 (46:26):
That performance was strange.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
Why didn't they let her get out.

Speaker 1 (46:29):
Of the flower?

Speaker 7 (46:30):
Anyway, Elton John is going to be there.

Speaker 8 (46:33):
Uh who is he tied with Chevy Check saying Chevy Check,
Joe Cocker maybe Joe Cocker, a couple of brit singers
or Cindy. He might be doing something with Brandy Carlisle
for the memorium too.

Speaker 7 (46:46):
Okay, Yeah, they were just they just performed not too
long ago. Flee hopefully fully dressed, Flee, We'll be there.

Speaker 1 (46:53):
Flee would Flee be bad company?

Speaker 12 (46:55):
No?

Speaker 3 (46:56):
Sound Garden maybe Soundgarden he'll be dung out for sure.

Speaker 8 (47:02):
Iggy Popgast, Joe Cocker.

Speaker 3 (47:05):
No, they're totally different styles. Who was the give me
the list of company?

Speaker 7 (47:12):
No, no, again, that could be a checker.

Speaker 3 (47:16):
I don't know if it's.

Speaker 7 (47:19):
Outcast, sound Garden, white stripes.

Speaker 3 (47:21):
Oh, white stripes, White stripes don't exist. If Iggy Pop.

Speaker 7 (47:24):
Doesn't, skin Killer Mike is going to be there, outcast,
outcast Maxwell.

Speaker 1 (47:32):
Who is the R and B that went in?

Speaker 8 (47:35):
I mean there's not a clear one. Huh, Joe Cocker, let's.

Speaker 7 (47:40):
Keep going, stop it, Missy, Missy Elliott Jon for Joe Cocker.

Speaker 3 (47:47):
I mean, could could be outcast, but like again, like
they're gonna talk about Saltpa paving the way.

Speaker 7 (47:53):
This one's interesting. Olivia Olivia Rodrigo. I thought Cyndy Hopper there.

Speaker 1 (47:58):
Oh yeah, that's good.

Speaker 7 (47:59):
Okay, that'd be cool est. Questlove probably outcasts as well.
I would think, uh, Taylor Momson, Wow, Okay, the white
stripes maybe white stripes, maybe maybe Soundgarden. She's leading her
pretty reckless. Oh gotcha, he's about us. She got bit
by bat last year. Yeah yeah, yeah, Teddy Swims clearly outcast.

Speaker 3 (48:23):
Oh he might be Joe Cocky Joe Cocker honestly.

Speaker 7 (48:26):
Okay, and then twenty twenty one pilots last on the list.

Speaker 8 (48:30):
Of prad company. Would they Teddy Swims, Sound Garden? Surely
they wouldn't. No, no, no, sound could be White Stripes performance.
Oh okay, okay, so guy and a drummer. That's very interesting.
That's not id he connected dogs. The big question still
is is Meg White going to show up? It's all
I even thinking it's not clear she's said stage fright.

Speaker 1 (48:53):
Uh.

Speaker 8 (48:54):
That's a big question for me because if they if
she doesn't show up, then someone else will be the
White Stripes.

Speaker 1 (48:59):
Yeah, the songs?

Speaker 7 (49:00):
All right again November.

Speaker 3 (49:01):
Eighth, all right, I'll try to get all that answered
next in the Today game.

Speaker 9 (49:06):
Come on.

Speaker 15 (49:09):
Surprise, Yeah, alright, alright, alright.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
I've got something for you.

Speaker 3 (49:26):
Skin.

Speaker 8 (49:26):
I know Ben's the fantasy gallon this show, but I
do think this will actually make sense and me interesting. Okay, okay,
this is based on looking it where a lot of
players were drafted at their position in fantasy football, okay,
across all the websites and how they're doing.

Speaker 3 (49:44):
Now, let me take you to the tight end position.

Speaker 8 (49:48):
Okay, what do you think, Jake ferguson what tight end
do you think he was drafted?

Speaker 3 (49:54):
As? I think he was probably drafted. I think the
back end of the top ten. Like you know, it
really comes down to like how many people in your
fantasy league, right, so I think on average?

Speaker 1 (50:06):
Well yeah, but everyone ends up drafting a bunch of
tight ends.

Speaker 3 (50:08):
So yeah, okay, I think on average he probably went seventh, twelfth,
Is that right? I would have thought higher, I would
have thought people. But I get also people not believing
in Dak after what happened last year.

Speaker 1 (50:21):
Yeah, I know for sure.

Speaker 8 (50:22):
So for reference, Travis Kelcey six, Yeah, I had taken Jackerson.
He is your current number one tight end. I heard
this the other day.

Speaker 3 (50:32):
Maybe you told me this, and I was like, I'm
not following it closely enough. But there was that one
game where he had four hundred receptions because Dak refused
to throw beyond four yards.

Speaker 8 (50:42):
Yeah, and the touchdowns are starting to pile up. Yeah, yeah,
he not had a lot left right, could have had
another one in that Eagles game. But George Jorge Pickens,
do you think he was drafted amongst all wide receivers?
Oh wow, I'm gonna say twenty fifth twenty second. Okay,

(51:04):
he is your sixth leading wide receiver in fantasy football.

Speaker 1 (51:07):
Let's go now.

Speaker 3 (51:07):
Part of that is CD getting hurt, but also you
know he's he's a big target. No Turpin this week.
Most likely Turpin doesn't think he's gonna play.

Speaker 8 (51:16):
So flirnoy is flinoy real is Jalen Tolbert comeback game?
It's so strange to me after he had that big
catch against the Packers, he got one target. Yeah, it's
very weird. Well, I think they triple covered him.

Speaker 3 (51:31):
Running backs of all the day, I guarantee you that, dude,
we're talking about Williams. He's probably a top three running
back in fantasy right, he's number three, Okay, behind Christian
McCaffrey and Jonathan Taylor.

Speaker 1 (51:42):
Okay, And I bet he went.

Speaker 16 (51:45):
Dog.

Speaker 1 (51:46):
I bet he went dog. I bet he went twenty fifth.

Speaker 8 (51:50):
Keep going thirty fifth, keep going fortieth, keep going fifty lower.

Speaker 1 (51:56):
Are you seriah back the other way now?

Speaker 12 (51:58):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (51:58):
Okay, forty fifth.

Speaker 8 (52:00):
He was the forty fifth running back taken, just for
a reference point, the first ring back taken pretty much
across all platforms.

Speaker 1 (52:05):
And Jean Robinson.

Speaker 8 (52:06):
Yeah, he's your seventh fantasy running back third, Uh, Dak Prescott.

Speaker 3 (52:11):
But you know what, I'm curious, and you may not
know this off the top of your helmet, how did
where did Travis Hunter go?

Speaker 1 (52:18):
In fantasy drafts? Pretty far down?

Speaker 8 (52:21):
Okay, because no one was going to be the wide
receiver one for them yet and no one knew how
she's gonna play.

Speaker 1 (52:26):
Have you been tracking his defensive and offensive snaps? I haven't,
he probably should.

Speaker 3 (52:31):
I read an article about it yesterday or the day before.
It is all over the board, like there's no real
rhyme or reason to it. I think in the last
the last game was his best offensive game.

Speaker 8 (52:44):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (52:44):
But then the week before that he had three defensive snaps.

Speaker 12 (52:48):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (52:48):
And so there's been times where I think he's had
a couple combined games where he played half of all snaps.
But then he's had some where he's like not on
the defensive side at all, somewhere he's not on the
offensive side at all. And then there's did you see
that controversy about on the Manning cast? Eli Manning said
that the coach of Jacksonville told him that he never

(53:12):
practiced as a wide receiver in college, never got red.
Oh yeah, and all the people are but hurt about that. Yeah, now,
Deon Junior saying, I got footage of him taking reps.

Speaker 1 (53:21):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 3 (53:23):
That's just an interesting thing to follow because it was
such a big score. He takes the Manning cast as
gospel goof around quarterback. Dak probably went fifteenth. Tenth, Okay,
he went tenth. He's your fourth scoring quarterback.

Speaker 8 (53:40):
Oh, I think higher. I think he's starting a lot
of touchdown I think it's him and Baker Rayfield right now,
and maybe Josh Allen's right behind.

Speaker 1 (53:48):
You know what those vp.

Speaker 3 (53:49):
It's interesting because Dak doesn't have monster yardage games. He
just has touchdowns.

Speaker 1 (53:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (53:55):
I mean the Cows are not the leading rushing or
passing team, right, they're the number one offense with yards.

Speaker 1 (54:00):
You have a has he.

Speaker 3 (54:02):
Had a three hundred yard passing game?

Speaker 1 (54:04):
Yet that he has?

Speaker 8 (54:05):
It feels like it's been to eighty nine every week?
Surely the Packers game surely?

Speaker 1 (54:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (54:09):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (54:10):
And the Giants game is a shootout.

Speaker 8 (54:12):
Yeah that's enough. Oh, well, off tomorrow, I've been back.
We'll make our official picks to click. Get ready, We're
not the Packers, I mean, Cowboys, Panthers.

Speaker 3 (54:21):
No, this is NFC Championship game preview. I guarantee you
we're not doing picks to click on the Eagle coming
up next. How do you feel about the high end
fancy Mexican food restaurant. We'll have that discussion in the
weekday Update and skin Show ninety seven point one The Eagle.
All right, let's give away those nine inch nails tickets.

named one of them, and the first person that can
do it with your name, your phone number, your email address,
you're gonna win those nine inch nails tickets. We are
going to talk about is it a music curse or
is it a nice award. We'll get in all that
at the bottom of the hour as we have a
fun little game show for you involving music. But right

(55:23):
now it's time for this.

Speaker 6 (55:25):
Are You Excited.

Speaker 9 (55:30):
Day featuring veteran news anchor Katie fun tweets all right.

Speaker 8 (55:36):
Yeah, little food news to get to in the weekday update.
There's a new restaurant coming in Dallas and it's from
the owner of Hudson House. Hudson House, I believe, the
same people that also own you know, if you remember
Drake's Hollywood, Yes, well, and and a.

Speaker 3 (55:55):
Bunch of like they got a bunch of good stuff, a.

Speaker 8 (55:57):
Ton of stuff, dude, And I think I thought I
also Jack and Harry's if you've ever been there.

Speaker 3 (56:02):
I'm doing this off the top of my head. I
believe they're called Vandale. I don't know about that, Okay,
I don't know about that, yep. But the point is
they are opening up a place called El Molino. Okay.

Speaker 8 (56:15):
Now, they're inspired by Javiers, which is clearly a you know,
big time restaurant for many years here, Yes, in Dallas,
and they're really gonna focus in on fajitas.

Speaker 3 (56:28):
What the sizzling sound immediately the heat of policy.

Speaker 8 (56:33):
I love them.

Speaker 1 (56:34):
I'll listen to him.

Speaker 3 (56:36):
That to someone walking through the restaurant with fresh fajitas
just sizzling all over your sack.

Speaker 8 (56:40):
It's probably the food I like the most that I
never hardly ever order.

Speaker 3 (56:45):
I I don't order it as much as I used to,
But I love the way you presented that.

Speaker 1 (56:50):
Because I love fajidas.

Speaker 7 (56:52):
I've been on a fajita kick lately. Actually, I had
a girl you brought up Lacameda not too long ago.
It's right down the street from where I live. We've
never been, so I finally went over there. They had
fijetas on the menu and I said, you know what,
give me the fijetas. I go to Gloria's all the time,
and I've been getting fijitas there recently as well. It's
just like you can build your own million, your own taco.

Speaker 1 (57:13):
Yeah. Perfect, No, it's amazing.

Speaker 3 (57:15):
And this sounds like if this is going to be
a specialty, this is a place I want to go to.
But you brought up Gloria's their carne of soada.

Speaker 1 (57:21):
Oh are you good?

Speaker 3 (57:22):
Mine?

Speaker 7 (57:23):
That was my usual go to. Now it's fijtas.

Speaker 2 (57:25):
No.

Speaker 1 (57:25):
I just want to have it inside me, just to.

Speaker 8 (57:27):
See what some of these fijida options are. Yes, we
can go f le mignon, okay, God, a dobo chicken
what is that word you said? A dobl able? Guilbl
guhido shimp shrimp what guhidlo shrimp?

Speaker 14 (57:45):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (57:45):
Who are you?

Speaker 7 (57:46):
Shrimp fijetas? I love shrimp veetas. Oh, fried chicken? What
have you ever had a fried chicken? Fijta?

Speaker 3 (57:57):
I like you you're just going to ask me have
you ever had a fried chicken? I love fried chicken.
I don't know that I want fried chicken vehitas, but
I may try it, and it's so good I feel
like I'm selling myself short.

Speaker 7 (58:10):
Here some some sour cream and cheese on top of it.

Speaker 3 (58:13):
That also are going to have five versions of enchilados. Okay,
sour cream chicken enchiladas are amazing.

Speaker 8 (58:20):
They also are going to be uh presenting a world
famous flaming frozen margarita. Hello, I'm a frozen margarita. Yeah,
lots of oh yes, tahena on the rim, dude, I
always give my margarita a little Titian rim job, a

(58:44):
little salt on there. Yeah, it's great salt. I like
both a little bit of salt and then plenty of
tahen yep. I've always said that you just gotta have
a toothpick handy, because the ten will get in your
little teeth cracks yup.

Speaker 3 (58:57):
So let me ask you guys. Pretty much everything's expensive
now anyways. Yeah, but I'm always kind of like, you know,
I'm eating Mexican food, and I'm like, why is this
this expensive? There's beans, there's cheese, there's meat. I mean,
it just feels like it's so basic in general. It's
like they have the same five ingredients just mixed up

(59:19):
different ways on every plate that I feel like, of
all the foods out there, Mexican food, which is delicious, now,
this is gonna be different than just quote unquote tex Mex.
It sounds like they're putting their spin on it. But
what I'm saying is I feel like I overpay the
most for Mexican food, specifically tex Mex. When I look
at what's going into it and then I get the check,
I'm like, come on, Ernie, what makes you feel different

(59:42):
than having some sushi or something?

Speaker 1 (59:44):
Yes, what do you mean?

Speaker 2 (59:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (59:45):
I'm like, oh, they had to go down to some
special fish mart to get this.

Speaker 1 (59:49):
I get it.

Speaker 3 (59:49):
But I'm like, all right, beans, cheese, meat, What am
I paying for here? Why is this so expensive?

Speaker 7 (59:55):
And that's why you go ahead and get the fijtas. Yes,
you know, it's the same price.

Speaker 3 (59:59):
Really, I love.

Speaker 8 (01:00:00):
Shri but these are just so shareable they are well
could you know, I'll say this, the people that are
behind this vandal a they don't miss.

Speaker 3 (01:00:10):
I've never Yeah, and you know I have gone to
like hire in Mexican food restaurants because I want to
check it out. The one I haven't been to yet
that I've heard so much about is the Mexican down
in the Design District.

Speaker 1 (01:00:21):
Have you been to that? Nope, I want to go
check that out.

Speaker 3 (01:00:24):
But I will definitely go to this because again, these
folks do not miss. Like every restaurant they're involved in.
Home run, well, absolute home run.

Speaker 8 (01:00:33):
Get a Fahida and give it casadilla.

Speaker 1 (01:00:36):
Put it in my Mexican food. Do you have an
opening date for that place? I don't. Do you know
where it is? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:00:44):
Oh yeah, send you the coordinates.

Speaker 1 (01:00:48):
I actually do know the date.

Speaker 8 (01:00:49):
The opening date is October fourteenth, twenty twenty five, and
it's going to be at sixty eight eighteen Snyder Plaza
in Dallas.

Speaker 3 (01:00:55):
Oh okay, right over there by, SMU.

Speaker 1 (01:00:58):
Why do you sound like? Well whatever? Some of my
protein shake got caught in my throat.

Speaker 3 (01:01:03):
Clearly it's protein. It's the bit and Skin show. Nwe
one point one. The Eagle coming up next. Let's have
a fun music game. Is this a curse or is
it a tribute? You'll play with us and have fun
next right here on the Eagles. Yep, something gross about

(01:01:25):
that intro. Not sure what I love it. I have
something that I would like to bring to you.

Speaker 8 (01:01:31):
And I saw this via a TikTok that my wife
showed me of some guy was going through the Best
New Artist winners at the Grammys over the last fifteen years,
and basically he was playing the game of did it
work out for them?

Speaker 1 (01:01:45):
Or were they cursed?

Speaker 8 (01:01:47):
So I have got in front of me nineteen seventy
to twenty twenty four your Best New Artist winners Wow
of the Grammys.

Speaker 1 (01:01:54):
Wow.

Speaker 8 (01:01:54):
And we'll start with Christina. Give me a year, and
then I will list off your nominees and you'll try
to get the point.

Speaker 1 (01:02:00):
Just go back and forth.

Speaker 7 (01:02:01):
Okay, let's go with twenty eighteen.

Speaker 3 (01:02:03):
Twenty eighteen is the year.

Speaker 8 (01:02:06):
Your nominees for Best New Artists are Alicia Kara, Khalid,
lil Uzi, Vert, Julia Michaels, and Siza.

Speaker 7 (01:02:22):
I think, Okay, there's two that I'm thinking here based
on what you kind of just said. Did it work
out well for them? Probably not?

Speaker 3 (01:02:30):
Let's go Khalid.

Speaker 1 (01:02:32):
It was not Khalid.

Speaker 3 (01:02:33):
The winner was Alicia krah Okay. Yeah, I've never.

Speaker 8 (01:02:37):
Good try though, Christina, you did your best there, did
I skin Man?

Speaker 3 (01:02:40):
I believe Irene Kara passed away in the last couple
of years, of course, so.

Speaker 1 (01:02:44):
Good in the movie Fame, of course, Fame Well, one
of my favorites.

Speaker 8 (01:02:47):
Nineteen ninety, nineteen ninety Nina Cherry, Indigo Girls, Tone Loke,
Soul to Soul, and Milli Vanilli Milli Vanilli. Correct, But
also that has been revoked. Why they had it taken

(01:03:09):
away from them?

Speaker 11 (01:03:10):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:03:10):
Oh, I thought you meant my answer has been revoked.

Speaker 7 (01:03:13):
Yeah, you can have it taken away from you.

Speaker 3 (01:03:15):
Because they found out that they didn't perform any of
that music. Oh, they were just guys in biker shorts
up there dancing. Let me just say that I knew
the answer to that before I said the name. So

Yeah, but you know, I know, just the Grammys. I'm
just saying, you know, you're dealing with Macy Gray.

Speaker 3 (01:03:57):
I'm sorry. Christina Aguilera took home the crown in two thousand.
Good for her.

Speaker 1 (01:04:02):
It's what a girl wants.

Speaker 8 (01:04:03):
Actually probably worked out of all those acts in terms
of staying power.

Speaker 3 (01:04:07):
Yeah, I would say Kid Rock is right there, but
he had also been performing for I don't know a
decade before he was nominated for Best New Artists.

that's correct, Billy Eilish, We've learned that this is Skin's
favorite Grammys characters watches every year just to see no.

Speaker 3 (01:06:27):
I thought when I guess twenty twenty one, I thought
that was going to be twenty twenty because I already
knew because I was rooting so hard for the Black Pumas.

Speaker 1 (01:06:33):
But then Billie Eilish.

Speaker 3 (01:06:34):
One in my house was happy, because they all worship
Billy Eilish.

I'm a nerd.

Speaker 8 (01:08:15):
He loves the Grammy. This is his party trick, lives

good guess. That that song was so pervasive you used
to put on your pajami's, go to your Grammys and
watch the Grammys.

Speaker 3 (01:13:19):
Uh huh.

Speaker 1 (01:13:19):
I couldn't tell you curse.

Speaker 3 (01:13:21):
I couldn't tell you one thing about her, curse of
being best new artist in this day and age. Okay,
let's go to the air. I graduated from high school
nineteen eighty nine.

Speaker 8 (01:13:30):
Anteen eighty nine, Ready, Rick Astley, Tracy Chapman, Tony Childs,
Take six, Vanessa L. Williams. Do you know who Vanessa
Williams was? Is Rick Fox?

Speaker 3 (01:13:47):
Didn't she play tennis? She was married to Rick Fox.
She was like a Miss America. And then nude pictures
of her came out and it was a huge scandal,
and she was also like an R and B artist
she parlated into a good model career too. Yeah. Yeah,
she actually did a really cool cover version of the
Isley Brothers work to Do. But the answer is Tracy Chapman.

(01:14:08):
That's correct. Up to seven seven to two Racy. That
was everywhere, like you guys can't imagine. You can't imagine.
When Luke Colmbs covered it, it was.

Speaker 8 (01:14:22):
Too Yeah, but that other song's better than fast Car,
which one give him on, So I'll turn it back around.
The thing about Fastcar though, Oh, that's the one that
he covers. It's sad and reminds you of going to school.

Speaker 3 (01:14:35):
But you got to think about what's happening in nineteen
eighty nine. First of all, when it came out, there
wasn't a black artist anywhere in the world that sounded
like that, so much so that when everyone saw the
video and goes, oh, it's a black girl, like, nobody
sounded like that.

Speaker 1 (01:14:50):
That was African American.

Speaker 3 (01:14:51):
Yeah, And then for a song like that to dominate MTV,
I mean it was just everywhere.

Speaker 8 (01:14:58):
Yeah, Christina, oh uh yes, let's go.

Speaker 7 (01:15:02):
Two thousand and eight, you're I graduated, all right?

already had both my kids by the time Christina graduates.

Speaker 8 (01:15:17):
Amy Winehouse Feist Ladisi Paramore, Taylor Swift. Oh, is that
the year Best New Artist at the Grammys? I know
what you're thinking in the answer is now, okay, Amy Winehouse,
seven to four skin, Okay, let's go.

Speaker 1 (01:15:40):
Let's stay at high school.

Speaker 4 (01:15:41):
Let's go.

Speaker 1 (01:15:41):
Nineteen eighty eight.

Speaker 8 (01:15:42):
Nineteen eighty eight, the Year I was born, Breakfast Club,
Cutting Crew, Terrence Trent Darby, swing Out Sister Jody Wattley.

Speaker 3 (01:15:55):
The answer is the man whose album title became the
name of one of the most influential sports talk radio
shows in the history of DFW. The album was called
The hard Line. According to Terrence Trent Darby, that's incorrect.
It's Jody Watley, so confident.

Speaker 7 (01:16:16):
Thank you for all of that. I can tell you're confident.
I was so confident. But everyone did love her hit song,
g bag Nation. Oh that's good. All right, Well you
get the win seven to four. Well, I'll tell you what.

Speaker 3 (01:16:32):
Let's give her one last one and if she gets
it right, she wins.

Speaker 1 (01:16:35):
Okay, Okay, you got that, Christina.

I'll never forget the time that KT looked bone Vere
dead in his eyes and he said to him, the
pune is a bit of a mystery. And man, that

(01:17:24):
guy then went on to do songs with Taylor Swift.

Speaker 1 (01:17:27):
All right, Christina, you wanna.

Speaker 3 (01:17:28):

Speaker 7 (01:17:29):
