Speaker 1 (00:00):
Oh it's time for this.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
A sucks song, and that's that technical therefore it obviously
it sucks.

Speaker 3 (00:09):
I'm just kind of following up some stories that we
might have neglected over the past few days or didn't
finish up on our friend in the Morning's Woody is
a lifelong Pittsburgh Steelers fan, so yesterday I was just
do the show recap.

Speaker 4 (00:25):
I sent him kind of what we kept popping on
our show, and then.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
He said, he sent you a picture of Franco Harris. No,
he didn't, but.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
I asked him, what do you think about the George
Pickens thing? And here's what he said, You can have him.
I'm over all the problem child players we've had over
the last ten years. I'm hoping this is a new
era for the Steelers of not putting up with that
diva childish bs. It's a distraction. George is super talented,
fun to watch and has incredible potential, but that's if
he can mature as a man and stop being such

(00:54):
a little bitch all the time.

Speaker 5 (00:56):
That's Woody from the Morning Show here on ninety seven
to one the Eagle. So why do he's sounded like
a sixty year old white.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
Guy he's got session. Man.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
I was like, hey, man, my dad's friends just called in.

Speaker 4 (01:07):
How simple did you like? The trader? Not would have
been fine? No, no, no, I get it.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
Man.

Speaker 5 (01:13):
It's frustrating when you have a player on your team
that you feel like is causing more problems than helping.

Speaker 3 (01:18):
Yeah, especially when it's maybe even worse when they're kind
of really good. And I really expect the Steelers to
start a new era with Mike Tomlin as their coach, right, you.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Know it's uh, this whole thing is is really set
up perfect for the Cowboys. Problem child style diva receiver
who creates all sorts of issues, has to be on
his best behavior. It's a contract year. The only way
this goes south is if he's not getting the ball
and he feels like it's costing him his personal money,
and then he sabotages and torpedoes the team. Yeah, but

(01:51):
at that point they could just cut him if they
wanted to. Yeah, but then they won't get the pen
story pick for the rental. But I can deactivate him.
It's still worth it, you know, It's still worth it
to me to go for it, because it changes your
whole offense. So I love it, but it's going to
be entertaining. He's going to be a lot to deal with.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
This is less risky than giving up a first round
pick for Amriy Cooper, which you did back in the day, right,
and then you know signing Amari Cooper.

Speaker 5 (02:14):
And I haven't I haven't given up on Mingo.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
But George Pickens is such an upgrade over a Mariy
Cooper or Tyler Lockett or Jerry Judy or Courtland Sutton
or whoever heze. Yeah, he's such an upgrade over any
of those guys.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
You'll take it.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Talking about ring In so rich worth it. But always
good to get the insight from the other side. Yeah,
and from the other part what Mena said, it happened.
I don't think Minas as Steelers fan, don't really know.
Didn't ask what he gets the emails. So there we go.
Space Probe, the Cosmos four eighty two spacecraft that we

(02:47):
told you about a week ago when we were doing
the show live at Fortunate Son in Garland.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
All the trash hurling back.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
There's a lot of space trash going on because of
Russian This thing was launched in nineteen seventy two. They
create a space Probe with the intention of checking out Venus,
because that's.

Speaker 5 (03:03):
A great name for a all scent punk rock band.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Space trash, space.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Trash, I think can say space probe, space Probe have
like a scientist in an astronut uniform putting on a
rubber glove.

Speaker 4 (03:15):
Pretty metal.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
Here's the latest estimation, and I've been looking at a
couple of YouTube trackers of when this thing is gonna
gonna fall. It's gonna fall sometime. The latest estimation is
at twelve fifty four Central time tonight.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
I'm gonna stay up and watch it.

Speaker 3 (03:29):
Okay, is this the same one where it's uh, it
can handle really hot environments because of Venus, right, and
so it's gonna make it through our atmosphere. That's fine,
that's the thought, And that's kind of a part of
the concern is that if it will make it won't
like disintegratee on its way down.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
It's gonna be fun. Oh this is this is warm. Also,
it could have been made really shoddily in the nineteen seventies. Yeah,
let me have it.

Speaker 5 (03:52):
Isn't the real lead here that KT somehow has time
to watch various space trackers on YouTube.

Speaker 4 (03:58):
I just took a few minutes out of my day,
so aside, and there you go.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Got a lot of models.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
He doesn't sleep much.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
Okay, he's got that thing.

Speaker 5 (04:06):
Do you google Space Tracker YouTube and just see what
channels pop up?

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Or how do you get there?

Speaker 4 (04:11):
I knew the name.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
Of it because we discussed it last week, so I
just typed in Cosmos and once you type in the
word Cosmos, Cosmos forty two tracker, there's like five or
six live YouTube streams streams of it. Right now, it's
just Russian guys going, we don't know what will happened.
They don't you know, there aren't in English, and they're
asking for donations in the super chat.

Speaker 5 (04:32):
Serious, why wouldn't they Why wouldn't they just speak Russian?
Why would they speak English with a Russian accent like
it's a fake foreign movie.

Speaker 3 (04:39):
Well if they got all kinds of languages coming to
them in their chatbot, they're trying to play the different
cult because they would sometimes slip into Russian, but then
they'd go back into English.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
It's really crazy because there's too much inside baseball.

Speaker 4 (04:50):
Dude, you'll want to hear something. It's kind of crazy.
Now we have time, all right, I feel time.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
Sorry, if you promised that it's gonna be worth our time.

Speaker 4 (04:57):
Why didn't I promise?

Speaker 2 (04:58):
It's the five o'clock out is counting on you right
now here he is, and the time as well.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
Actually, during the last stream up, the guy from Burry
the timing forecast. Oh, they got a little bed of music.

Speaker 4 (05:16):
It's been like this all day.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
I'd love that you know this is in the world.
One more les. You gotta have someone in your crew
that this is in the world. Badass Kevin.

Speaker 3 (05:25):
Some one of the comments just said, oh look out Oklahoma.

Speaker 5 (05:29):
So there's not a day that doesn't go by that
someone doesn't issue that warning somewhere in the world.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
This al right be a problem.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
There you have it.
