Speaker 1 (00:00):
And we would love for everybody to come see us
this weekend for the grand opening of the new Rollertown
Beer Works in Frisco, Texas. That's the brewery that Ben
and I are partners in. We have closed down our
Salina location and move the whole operation to Frisco and
we are launching it on Friday, and we are so
very excited about this.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
Man, this is a dream come true, something we've been
working on for over six years and to finally be
in Frisco, to have this new world headquarter location. It's
on Main Street in Frisco at the Big White Silos,
just a couple of doors down from FC Dallas and
Toyota Stadium. But it is going to be awesome and
there's always going to be something happening there. There's programming

(00:42):
like concerts, live music stuff. You're gonna want to follow
Rollertown on social media just to keep up with everything
going on. There's constantly something programmed. Like Brand New Funk,
which is probably my favorite thing in all of DFW,
is starting a residency with us there and they're gonna
be It's Wednesdays.

Speaker 4 (00:57):
Right every Wednesdays. Wow, And that's a great exampample.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
If you go to Rollertown beer Works and look at
the events calendar, Brand New Funk is free every Wednesday night.
You don't need to buy tickets for that. But on
Fridays and Saturdays we have big events on the lawn
that you get tickets for. But the tap room is
always free and open to everybody. The beer garden is
always free and open to everybody, so you can always
come on through. But for the big events, you're definitely

(01:22):
gonna want to get tickets for the concerts out on
the lawn. See it's this one this weekend, rather Rollertown
beer Works in Frisco. All right, now it's time.

Speaker 4 (01:32):
For this.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
And it's big, really big.

Speaker 5 (01:40):
I always think it's funny when people have to go
on the apology tour.

Speaker 4 (01:44):
They've got to make amends for something they've done.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
Well.

Speaker 5 (01:46):
My first example I'd like to play for you is
Tom brennanan a play by play announcer Capitals of.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
The World.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Friends, why the pregame.

Speaker 5 (01:55):
Showy gay Game gets going again and.

Speaker 6 (02:00):
Then Costianos to lee things off. Jim Day is going
to be taking us the rest of the way through
this game. I made a comment earlier tonight that I
guess went out over the year that I am deeply
ashamed of. If I have hurt anyone out there, I
can't tell you how much I say from the bottom
of my heart, I'm so very very sorry. I pride

(02:23):
myself and think of myself as a man of faith.
As there's a drive in a deep left field, I'm
cast on us it will be a home run and
so that'll make it a four to nothing ball game.
I don't know if I'm going to be putting on
this headset again. I don't know if it's going to
be for the Reds. I don't know if it's going

(02:43):
to be for my bosses at Fox. I'm going to
apologize for the people who signed my paycheck, for the Reds,
for Fox Sports Ohio, for the people I work with,
for anybody that I've offended here tonight. I can't begin
to tell you how deeply sorry I am. Not who
I am and never has been, and I'd like to

(03:04):
think maybe I could have some people that.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
They could back that up.

Speaker 4 (03:09):
We're scared of you.

Speaker 6 (03:11):
I am very very sorry, and I beg for your forgiveness.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Jim Dale, take you the rest of the way home.

Speaker 5 (03:19):
Jim days, they're going Finally, hey guys, it's never been
who he was. That's very aggressive, dude.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
The one thing I would like to throw out there
without knowing who was in his crew and who he
was talking to. Maybe there is people in his crew
that are of the group that he was referencing, and
that's kind of how they joke with one another.

Speaker 5 (03:51):
But if you're looking to defend the guy, yeah, sure.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
I feel like, Uh, it's shocking that none of us
have been fired or canceled because we're always in front
of microphones and you just have a tremendous amount of
trust in people around you, and that it you know,
it's way too dangerous to say the things any of
us say in front.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
Of Mike's lower room talk bro.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
I mean, I think a lot of our off air
racial slurs, if they were to.

Speaker 4 (04:18):
Get out, would be problematic.

Speaker 5 (04:21):
Uh you know, here's another one. I'll wind al Michaels down.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
By Bradley Roby. I mean, let's fakure.

Speaker 6 (04:28):
The Giants are coming off a worst week than Harvey Weinstein.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
And they're up by fourteen points.

Speaker 4 (04:35):
Okay, fine, minutes later.

Speaker 6 (04:37):
Back and then sorry, I made a reference earlier before
I try to be a little FLI about somebody obviously
very much in the news all over the country and was.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Not meant in that manner. So by apologies and uh,
we'll just leave it at that. We'll leave it moving on.

Speaker 5 (04:54):
Don't take the minute and a half and stop the
game and make it about you like Tom Brideman did.

Speaker 4 (04:58):
We used a whole castianos home run.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
I was thinking about that because you know, usually if
you're going to issue an apology, you want to think
through it, man.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
But he was just diary of the mouth, you know.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
But in the case about Michaels, I was like, all right,
look man, I made a topical rape joke. I'm ready
to move on, right right, collins Worth, remember what you said,
Jesus Man is my bet coming through tonight.

Speaker 4 (05:21):
Now it's not.

Speaker 5 (05:21):
Always these national sports broadcasting legends.

Speaker 4 (05:25):
Sometimes you get a member of the Ben and Skin Show.

Speaker 5 (05:27):
Here's the time Ben had to apologize to Elvis Andrews
for trying to trade him.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
All right, well, look, even though I've tried to trade
you a bunch, it's not because I don't think you're
a great player. I just want you to be the
best that you can be, And I don't think you
were that last year, but I think based on this interview,
I could tell you're about to be that this year.
So I'm excited to have you back with the Texas Rangers.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
I'd love to pay for a second date for you, guys,
but you gotta hug it out, man.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
Go down that road.

Speaker 4 (05:55):
Oh dude, you probably didn't even know.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
You were know what that he speaks. English was the
second language he knew nothing about. It was and you
were in a meeting and spittle and Shan Trees demanded
you're accountable for a sports opinion.

Speaker 4 (06:10):
You'll be a pee if you don't apologize. There was
the time it was a utility infielder for the Rangers.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
Do you remember this.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
I don't know. It was a utility infielder. He barely
spoke any English at all, and I had been on
his cage whatever. My big opinion was that he should
shouldn't even be on the roster, and I went to
I went to his locker to apologize or something or
and it was like so unnecessary. He was looking at
me like, I don't even know what you're saying right now.

Speaker 4 (06:37):
This is thank you?

Speaker 1 (06:41):
It was was it was I think you tweeted something
about you've been played.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
That was so bad.

Speaker 4 (06:51):
Like I was listening to that just cringing.

Speaker 2 (06:54):
There was no not necessary.

Speaker 4 (06:57):
I'm glad you did that.

Speaker 5 (06:59):
Okay, So here here's one of why Brent Musburger on
four Oklahoma unnament Joe Mixon.

Speaker 7 (07:04):
But back in twenty fourteen, he punched a female student.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
Back in normany Pa. Pama dooty might transfer well.

Speaker 7 (07:11):
The video was released in twenty sixteen.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
It was proubling to see.

Speaker 7 (07:17):
We've talked to the coaches and they all swear that
the young man is doing fine.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
He's just one of the best.

Speaker 7 (07:25):
And let's hope that this young man makes the most
of his chance and goes on to have a career
in the national.

Speaker 5 (07:32):
Football Okay, so he's hopes he's over the you know,
punching the woman in the rest of.

Speaker 6 (07:37):
I love the pump up music underneath that he punched
his girlfriend.

Speaker 4 (07:40):
YouTube's weird. Here's the apology, you.

Speaker 8 (07:43):
Know, Jess, Apparently some people were very upset when I
wish this young man well at the next level. Let
me make something perfectly clear. What he did with that
young lady was brutal, uncalled for. He's apologized he was
heereful you got a second chance.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
From Bob Stoops. I happened to pull for people with
second chances.

Speaker 8 (08:05):
Okay, I mean, I get absolutely clear.

Speaker 7 (08:08):
I hope he has a wonderful career and he teaches
people with that brutal, violent video. Okay, sucking down at nine,
oh so mad?

Speaker 4 (08:18):
He didn't do it. He made it worse.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
He made it worse.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
Yeah, he should just moved and honestly, like that's the
whole thing we talk about. You can't control if someone
chooses to be offended. Like he didn't say I'm so
glad Mixing hit that girl.

Speaker 4 (08:36):
But he's moved.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
I mean, he just said, he said it was bad.
I mean, it's really more about Stoops than anything. Oklahoma,
let him back on the team.

Speaker 7 (08:46):
What was he.

Speaker 4 (08:46):
Supposed to do? It's a huge story. So there's one
that I'm gonna play.

Speaker 5 (08:50):
I'm gonna tease to to tomorrow, an apology that I
forgot existed. It involves two people from one of Yell's
favorite sitcoms. It involves David Letterman. That will be the
I want to end today's show, though by one of
our clients. They're not on the books right now. Gary
Garfield over at.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
Snake's po Oh.

Speaker 5 (09:09):
Yeah, remember this had an incident at the store and
he bought airtime to apologize to the Metroples and I
guess the rest of the globe really.

Speaker 9 (09:20):
Yeah, Hi, this is Gary Garfield, the manager of Snakes
Plus here in Frisco. You've probably seen us in the
news following a recent string of customers and employees being
bitten by snakes in our store. I'm here today to
offer you our friends and customers and apology. We miss
the mark and we can do better. No store can

(09:41):
guarantee zero snake bites, but we are putting together a
special safety council with the goal of reducing customer snake
bites by fifty percent by the year twenty twenty three.
And as always, we will continue our policy of giving
you free of charge any snake that bites you in
our store. Now that we've cleared the I want to
remind you that the holiday season is almost over. We

(10:03):
have more snakes here than ever and we would rather
make deals than pay taxes. On January first, we have
deep discounts on every snake, from Australian brown snakes to
Malayan pitfibers, and starting this Friday, we'll be giving away
a free snake with every purchase from our famous grab bag.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
But we hope to see you soon.

Speaker 9 (10:22):
And remember, Snake's Plus is not just a snake aisle,
It's a snake store plus a whole lot more snakes plus.

Speaker 4 (10:32):
Snakes buss they recovered nicely.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
Well.

Speaker 5 (10:36):
I wonder if he's going to apologize for those toilet
snakes that benh.

Speaker 4 (10:40):
Yeah, do they sell toilets?

Speaker 6 (10:42):
They do?

Speaker 2 (10:43):
They do?

Speaker 4 (10:43):
You can retrieve them from the toilet yourself. Wow, that's wonderful.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
While I look forward to the letterman apology tomorrow, I'll
never forget the time that Kat looked Gary Garfield dead
in his I at the Snakes Plus store in Frisco,
and he said.

Speaker 4 (10:56):
I think I would say, never change, you know, but
also change all that is helpful and committed.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
Speaking of committed, Christina, you're gonna stick around, play some
music till ten o'clock at a girl. Y'all hang out
with our girl Christina right here on the eagle here

Speaker 6 (11:15):
