Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Good morning, beyond a Giorno andDobro Juetro. I say that, right,
Derek, wherever you're at in theworld, scratch that, wherever you're
at in the universe, whatever languageyou speak, humans and aliens alike,
you are tuned into what we affectionatelycall the worst case scenario. You guys,

(00:23):
you got You're not gonna believe this. Abbott wanted us on the air.
No, it was a near miss. Our fearless leader in programm director
chat Abbot. You're all familiar withhim. He's rarely around here, but
you're you're all familiar with him.Nice of him to care. He wanted

(00:46):
to release the debut episode of abrand new podcast coming to the Cafe and
Airwaves featuring Brett Blakemore, Zach Calverson, Chris Hockey, Paul Meet Sauce,
Lambert Tenneby, Dan Burrero, andKevin Gorg, called The Bald and the
Beautiful. I was really excited aboutthat project too. I'm still pissed about

(01:10):
it and you and you'll know becauseyou were there at the recording session.
Unfortunately the recording. During the recording, the shine bouncing off of everyone's collective
bald heads caused temporary blindness in theroom. The save button couldn't be found
the podcast in the time, andI'm sorry, I'm sorry I had to
bring it up. I had toget ahead of the horse, you know

(01:33):
what I'm saying. So we're backfor another week. Scenario. If I
could see you, guys, I'msure. But it was Max Fuller a
k. A. Maxton America aKA Freny stark ak A bazillion other things.
I put the worst in worst casescenario Capital w By the way,

(01:53):
I'm really I'm really just that awful. But luckily this boat of bad is
buoyed by some of the best ofthe best. Don't say that three times
fast, including this next guy whocame into the studio on crutches this morning
because he was so excited about yesterday'sSuperhero movie news that he attempted to fly
out the window. He's been shootinghis Spider Man web shooters all over the

(02:15):
studio all morning. That's an HRviolation, by the way, but here
in the Twin Cities we simply callhim Brett doctor Doom. Well, I'm
on crutches, I'm blind, andI jumped out a window. Boy,

(02:38):
I had a rough twenty four hours. That's a weekend. You're party a
hard brother. Yeah, No,I'm doing right. That is again,
I get infatuated on things very easily. That's all that's on my mind is
like, what are they going todo with that new Avengers movie? So
yeah, I'm gonna have to turnthat off. That's why I had to.
I had to get out in frontof it, and I knew it
was just a statues like, wejust got to get it out of the

(02:59):
way right exactly. Next up,we got a guy that has lived more
lives than six cats, stuck inthe cycle of reincarnation. Wow. At
some point during the show, he'sgoing to tell us some ridiculous story that
he wants. I don't know,ran hurdles with Flow Joe or hit a
bong with Michael Phelps right before hewon a gold medal, and somehow all

(03:19):
of it will be true. That'swhy we call him the Human Onion.
That's why we call him the InternationalMan of Mystery, and that's why we
call him mister Robbie rosen House.What's good, Robbie. I'm actually the
original inspiration for Where in the Worldis Carmen San Diego is actually, where
in the world is Robbie rosen Housestole the beans from Lima and the like.

(03:42):
Well, we appreciate you that youchose to be at this place in
the world at this time. It'sthe worst case scenario. Very much happy
to be here as I am everySunday to hang out with all of you.
Lucky for us as well that weare graced by the presence of Rube
Royalty. Two weeks in a row. You saw her sneak in a play
The Ribs in a McDonald's Diet Cocainein the movie Theater. No you didn't.

(04:03):
She is the future President of theUnited States and current president of the
Marnie Gillener fan Clubs. She isthe Pull Tam Princess, the Dame of
Dabbers, the future Missus Chris Finch, and current Queen of Our Hearts.
Hailey Darling. Hi, hey Haley, two weeks in a row. I
mean, I feel so blessed rightnow. This is amazing. Thanks for

(04:24):
having me. Oh, thanks forcoming as always, guys, I'm a
little sad today though not gonna lie. Oh no, we don't like to
see you set Max. The summertimeis almost over. Yeah, we are
hurtling towards August. We are rapidlythe speed of a dinosaur destroying meteor.
But I would say that this yearthat you know, we like to call

(04:46):
the summertime the sports abyss, whichis kind of a slap in the face
to baseball. Sorry, John Bonus, it's so long spend money, but
we love baseball. When we allsaw we're not monogamous sports fans. We
like to have options, you knowwhat I'm saying. Yeah, we like

(05:10):
to survey the field right exactly,and every other time of years there's options.
Summertime is the only time that there'sreally like only one show in town
basically, but we're right around thecorner from fall training campus started all around.
NFL basketball and hockey will be rightback around the corner. But I
would say this year is definitely alot less abyss ish, would you guys

(05:32):
agree? I feel like it feelslonger. Maybe it's partially because of timbules
playoff run went into almost into June. I should say totally. How I
mean, when's the last time thathappened? Two thousand and four decades seconds
since we have had basketball that lateinto the summer. So definitely the summer
feels shortened just because of that.I do think the high of the Vikings

(05:55):
drafting a quarterback has not worn offbecause the anti it was. The draft
was great. Everybody saw him,everybody saw him speak to the fans,
and it was all great, andwe all went back and watched all the
highlights and then Mini camp and nowwe're revving it up again. It's like,
oh, we get to see himout there, and he's looked good
so far. We'll get into itin a little bit, but I think
that's a big part of why theabyss, like you said, Max,

(06:18):
has kind of been a bit nonexistent this summer, right, And there's
been plenty of off season news inthe NBA as well, lots of shake
ups. That'll mean, I meanhave reverberations. If I could speak all
throughout the next season and got allthese Vikings news. The WNBA is on
fire. And I'm sure longtime fansof the WNBA are like, hello,
Hello, we're all. We areall. We were all blind, much

(06:40):
like Brett Blake Moore, to theglory of the WNBA until this year.
But it's been awesome and the linksare on freaking fire man. I mean,
they're just one of the best teamsin the entire league. So it
definitely feels a lot more abyss lessabyss ish. But even if you did
feel like you were in the midstof the sports abyss, it's gone.
Training campus here, it's gone.We're We're there, We're there. We're
almost to the fall, We're almostto basketball, we're almost to hockey,

(07:04):
we're almost back to National Football League, And I cannot freaking wait. But
I don't want to wish away thesummer because one of my favorite seasons.
There's always something to do in thesummer. Not just because you know,
you can just go outside. Everybody'sgot the slabs out. The less close
the better you can get a tan. Love going out and getting a tan.
You know what I'm saying. Youguys see that I got you're doing.

(07:25):
I got a pretty good tan,right you. Yeah, that's not
fair. I got start. Butit seems like there's always something to do,
whether it's just go hiking in natureand get lit up by mosquitos,
get the slabs out at the beach, at the lake, whatever. But
there seems like there's always an eventin the Twin Cities are in the Midwest
in general, there's always some typeof festival. There's food truck festivals left

(07:48):
and right. These days, there'severy culture has their own festival. I
think there's like an Irish one comingup soon, and that's awesome. Like
I went to it a couple yearsago. It's awesome. They've got they
got all these different kinds of culturalfestivals. And one of the biggest ones,
it's not Minnesota specific, but oneof the biggest music festivals in the
Midwest is rapidly approaching this week.Lollapalooza kicks off in Chicago in just a

(08:09):
handful of days. It's got featuredyou know, it's got sizza. I
think the Killers are there. There'sall types. I mean, there's a
bajillion different artists. It goes onfor almost a freaking week. And being
the brilliant, elite festival and concertmind that she is, Haley Darling texted
me yesterday with a brilliant idea.Since it is festival season, she posed

(08:31):
this question to me, and I'mcurious to hear you guys's answers to if
you were in charge of a minifestival and you could only pick five living
artists living artists to perform and bea part of your lineup. Who are
you going with and why anybody wantto anybody want to start? Robbie Robin
Felt. That's the speaking I thinkis the one I'm most interested in.

(08:54):
Because your music taste is all overthe place, which is a good thing.
I would agree with that. Mymusic taste is very eclectic. But
there is one genre of music thatfor the last I would say twenty years,
I have specifically honed in on andspecifically enjoyed both new and listening back
to music that was from twenty yearsago. That's yeah, no, no,

(09:18):
absolutely, I mean play let's sayludicris and let's just go right,
just go right down the line,things like every Day Well that I was
red Eye. Wow, you knowthat. You don't know that song.
We can't believe you did an Atlantabased song. Seven all right. I

(09:46):
would go with country. That's that'smy genre and just full out country.
Now going multi genre. Now there'sa qualifier here because one of the artists
actually crosses over. Oh and Ithink Hanley knows who that would be.
So my father, Well, thanksfor berrying to read there. Brett,
Jeez, you couldn't you couldn't letme get to the headliner, right,
you had to. You had tothrow that out there in the ether.

(10:07):
But now that Brett has spoiled it, we'll go with Taylor Swift. Only
country, though only her country stuff. I was no, no, no,
but no, it's okay, Hey, no, it's okay, Brett.
Taylor Swift would be artist number one. Zach Brown Band I love Harmonies,
so Zach Brown Band, Big andRich. The Dixie Chicks or the
Chicks as they're now, Yes,sorry, I get political, Robbie,

(10:28):
you're not on on that other stage. I wouldn't. I wouldn't bring them
up in there either, but yes, the Chicks formally formally known as the
Dixie Chicks. And then my myfavorite probably musical group of all time country
wise, would be Rascal Flats.Even though they're not together. I would
try and get them together to beat my festival. And you said fest

(10:48):
there is, like you said,all the Paluza this weekend. There's also
we Fest going on, which isa huge, huge country music festival going
on in Wisconsin this weekend. Sothose would be the five artists, including
Taylor Swift. Just country real quickbefore you move on, how do we
How are we all feeling about RobbieFest them tickets? I'm Robbie. We

(11:11):
are in the same way for sure. So yes, I would actually like
this festival to come to fruition.Okay, I would ask Barb for tickets.
Now, I actually have socks tofold. I've got waiting on a
delivery a hot asphalt. That's funny. You actually asked me to assist with
your sock folding, so I'll bewith you folding socks as well. I'm

(11:33):
busy that day, Robbie, It'sall right, It's okay, no problem.
Hailey Darling, Hailey Fest. Whatare you calling it? Darling Fest?
Hailey Fest. I kind of likeDarling Darlingest sounds cool. Yeah,
it's kind of sweet. I kindof like that. So I do have
a bone to pick with you,because when we talked about this yesterday,
you said seven acts, and theway I seven it was so difficult,

(11:54):
so I just had to quick xnayto act. I'm like, oh,
it was terrible. So I gotrid of Eric Church and the Rolling Stones,
and I kept Jay z Fleetwood,Mac Morgan, Wallen Eagles and Taylor
Sweat. So I would say mytop two listen to. Genres are classic

(12:18):
rock because I am a six yearold man at heart, and then country
music, so yeah, I wouldgo back and forth. But then I
love jay Z. I've seen himperform multiple times. I think he is
so talented. And I don't knowif you guys know this about me,
but I am an East Coast rapof I love. I am so jealous

(12:39):
that you grew up in the eraby amazing Well, not Diddy anymore,
but Biggie Biggie was really so Ilove jay Z so much. I think
he is so intelligent and his rapsare insane, and he's a phenomenal performer,
so I would have him in there. So he's kind of the the

(13:01):
odd man out, but I thinkhe's fantastic and I think it would be
a vibe. Can you go throughthat list again? I love Darling Fest.
Okay, so jay Z, Fleetwood, Mac Eagles, Yes, I
actually almost as well. So theonly thing that I am dead set on

(13:26):
for Darling Fest is that Taylor Swiftis the headliner, because she is music.
I don't know if you saw herconcert over the weekend. There was
people on a hill overlooking the stadiums, like thousands of people looking into the
stadium just to be able to watchher. So she is the music industry.
I will fight anyone on that.And Taylor Swift closes anyone else,

(13:48):
it's all the men opening for herbecause she is She is the music industry
for sure. I love that.Robbie Brett, are you are you Darling?
I'm in Fleetwood Mac one of themembers passed away. Yeah. I
almost canceled the date the day thatChristine mcviee died because I was so upset.

(14:09):
I was here. It is twentyfourteen when they came back the original
lineup before Lindsay left the band andChristy was still of Sound Mind and she
played Songbird at the end of Cuse. I actually saw the original lineup down
in Atlanta and one of my favoritebands as well, so I would definitely
be their backs. Yeah. TimeI remember, I was getting I was

(14:31):
I was getting to well, that'sfine, I was getting to why I
would want to be at haley Fest. But Darlingest Darling Fest. That's sorry,
Darling Fests. What is Blake MooreFest? I'll say I'll say this
with the with Darling Fest, Idon't know where it would take place.
But I imagine there would be alot of scenic views around the festival,
probably a lot of good looking sitesto people who are attending there. Okay,

(14:56):
you can leave it. I feellike, Okay, no, the
I don't know blakemore Bash, maybeI don't know. By the way,
seven artists I scrambled for a couplemore, none of you will be interested
in this at all at all.This is this is not the let's try

(15:16):
to get as many people there aspossible fest. This is what I want
to see fest and everyone else.I hope you show up, but I
don't expect you to. So I'mjust gonna rattle them off because you guys
are not going to know almost anyof them. Neck Deep Silverstein. I
just learned one of their songs,Silverstein. I just learned Smile in your
Sleep the other day. I justlearned how to play that's fun song to

(15:37):
play four years Strong. I justsaw them open for someone else who's on
this list, spirit Box, femalelead metal band, Great Tunes, Great
Tunes, spirit Box. And thenmy top three is like mount Rushmore bands
for me? Uh is anyone seeingthe Goonies in here? Yes? My
one of my favorite bands is namedChunk, No Captain Chunk may sand so

(16:00):
good. This is a real thing, a day to remember. And then
the headline are my favorite band ofall time August Burns read this is a
metal slash punk show, and Iexpect that no one elbows will be flying
chairs. You know, I wouldstay out of the middle. That's what
I would say. You're You're safepretty much anywhere else, but in the
middle, you know, good luckto you. All of those could have

(16:22):
been made up and I would havenoah. And if you put a gun
to my head, I could notname one song from any of those people.
Like if someone said name one songfrom one of those people, would
be like, hey, tell myfamily. Sorry again. My expectations were
an all time level. This isnot trying to oh trust me. If

(16:44):
I was trying to win you guysover to a festival, that'd be completely
different. The Timeless Music Festival.Yeah, I would have loved to go
to that, do you guys?Nobody's attending Blake the Blakemore Bash, just
to support Bred At least i'd worksecurity. I would That actually is not

(17:07):
a good idea because you'd be catchinga lot of crowdsurfers in front of the
stage. I'll handle it, okay, I would. I would go as
long as I had vi P obviously, and if there was an open bar
for dump obviously, truly a dayto remember. If I could wear earplugs,
I would cheer. I would behappy for you, Brett, because

(17:29):
this sounds like it would be avery nice day for you. My neck
would be so for a week that'sbetween you and August Burns, red Brother.
I become like a silent disco stylewith my own headphones and my own
soundcheck. But I would be therefor moral support. Bro oh thanks,
Yeah, I'll take that pro fast. Finally, pro Fest just came up

(17:52):
with it a second ago, alittle different than Firefest, hopefully to different.
Well, you can take some ofthe good. Let's leave the front
out of it. Not a scam, no, necessarily not necessarily good time,
but not a scam. The openeris going to be Jamiqui because I
love Jamerica. I also special guestcameo from John Hayter, the Napoleon Dynamite

(18:18):
himself, and he's gonna do theNapoleon Dynamite dance that he did in the
movie. Because one of the greatestscenes in film history, timeless. So
I'm inviting Jamiroquai because that's going toget the people moving. You might get
MGMT bringing MGMT because what's a festivalwithout some psychedelic rock. Everybody in the

(18:41):
crowd wants to do some acid,some mushrooms, you know what I'm saying.
Yeah, wait what MGMT? Right, and that one of their songs,
it's called kids Kid. No,no, I said, a little
kid, I know, I said, how about I'm sorry, I know
the song is called kids Sorry,boy, let's just move on. Oh
my goodness, Oh, speaking ofDiddy, Wow, everybody, everybody wants

(19:07):
to happen. You gotta some psychedelicrock. Got a festival, It's now
at door festival. You gotta havesome psychedelic rock. So I'm MGMT.
I'm bringing Harry Styles. I don'tknow a single Harry Styles song, but
I need beautiful women to be atmy festival exactly. I'll Zach introduce him,
have the VIP, the gold band, gold membership, whatever. Zacho
will be there. So I haveHarry Styles there just for the ladies.

(19:30):
I want Britney Spears there with hericonic old school Britney Spears microphone. But
I also want her to be likeslightly crazy Britney Spears, not like prime
Britney Spears, like toxic Britney Spears. You know, like when she like
when she started kind of like shavingthe head and doing the weird knife dances
and stuff like that. Yeah,that's dark times because you never know what

(19:52):
she could just do some crazy youknow, like we need you always have
to have one of those acts that'sunpredictable. So I'm having Britney Spears.
And and because I said living artists, right Tubac because he's alive and he's
in and not enough people talk aboutit. People are talking about it,
so sorry Max. Before we getto whether or not we would attend for
Fest, which you all will,I feel like I've officially made it because

(20:15):
I just had more amster. Damnguy text me something about the show and
he said, if Brett stood ona street corner and started saying those band
names out loud, someone might callthe police to report in an emotionally disturbed
person. And I don't think I'mso sorry, So credit Maury Amsterdam.

(20:36):
That's good right there. My showwould be so much fun. Thus I
thought you guys feel about fro fest. I'm there for sure, even though
I'm East Coast Rap. I stillyou got b if Are you going to
are you going to do a jobdrive by? But I will sing California

(20:57):
Love and Mama. But everything elseI've all just bought my head. So
what about you, Brett Blakemore,you know well there could be negotiations,
okay, prof maybe some air conditioning, Okay, we could do that.
A couple of honorable mentions Cardi bMegan the Stallion says A just for personal

(21:18):
reasons, I would want them there, and also iced Tea because I would
want him to reenact scenes from SVUAUright exactly. That'd be pretty cool.
Now, if I had to forceyou to pick an artist from the East
Coast, the East Coast Rap,who would you pick? Your favorite?

(30:22):
that one hundred point three k atA and the fan. Welcome back to

(31:00):
Worst Case Scenario on a Sunday.We are back, and so is the
non ABYSS season. We talked aboutit in the opening segment, but training
camps have kicked off all around theNFL, and I love training camp season,
not only because I love being dramaticand making bold proclamations about things that

(31:22):
happen in practice, but also becauseit's the one time of year that every
fan base has hope, like theone time of year. I mean,
even Panthers fans down in Carolina,our Patriots fans over on the East Coast.
They're talking themselves into a possible pathof the playoffs right now. And
those teams are garbage, they're notgonna, but fans, we're delusional and
we have hope at this time ofyear? Do those teams have a Paul

(31:45):
Allen that's saying I looked at theschedule and I can't and saying that I
don't know about the Panthers, butI'm sure that almost every radio station in
Boston has the most city. Theygo win loss, win loss on every
single show from morning till night.Once the schedule comes out, and Vikings

(32:07):
fans, we have a lot ofreasons to be hopeful of After all the
reports coming out of the first coupleof days in training camps, it seems
to indicate that we have not one, but two stud quarterbacks on our hands.
Everybody down at TCL at San SammyDonald, Sammy Donold is out there
slinging bombs to JJ and JA andJJ McCarthy's impressing a lot of folks with
him his arm as well. Soit looks like we got we got a

(32:28):
quarterback controversy in the sense that wehave two stud quarterbacks. Don't they say,
if you have two quarterbacks, youhave no quarterbacks? Like, if
there is not a definite winner forthe job, aren't you kind of screwed?
Isn't that what they say? TheVikings are gonna be great. They're
gonna win every game this year.Come on, you're finally coming around.

(32:49):
They both have their good moments intheir boot and their bad moments. They're
they're trying to deal with a tonof pressure and complex coverages that Flores is
throwing at them. I think Ithink that they both look really good.
Yesterday. McCarthy was really cooking inthe red zone. He went four for
five in that setting with touchdown passesto guys like Jalen Naylor, who is
the favorite now for the wide receiverthree job made some great plays yesterday and

(33:14):
Donald had a bit of a shakyday, but through the start of camp
he's been more good than bad,And I just think that going forward,
they're going to have two good optionshere. I don't know what all the
consternation was when they brought Sam Donaldin. The guy can play. He
was a top five pick for areason. They clearly believed in him.
He was on the Niners who havea offensive staff that knows what the heck

(33:36):
they're doing. And this staff knowswhat they're doing, and I think Donald's
going to make an impact and gonnamake it early and often. And to
Haley's question, I think that prettymuch everything indicates that there is almost nothing
that JJ McCarthy can do to becomeQB one everything that I'm happy nothing.
It is not impossible. But theybrought Sam Donald in for a reason and
they paid him. Are they're payingon ten million dollars? So well,

(33:58):
what is the upside? Guys?Let me ask you ain this, What
is the up What is truly thathe that he hits the ground running like
that. I understand that's the bestcase scenario that he go that he turns
into a CJ. Stroud who justcomes in the league immediately breaks down coverages
and lights it up. But thenthere's the downside where I'm not sure you
want that to bench him three orfour games in go to Donald when you're

(34:19):
one in three, you know,having to go overseas. It's just it
would be kind of a tricky situation. No, I agree with you,
because if you put him in andhe sucks bad and then all of a
sudden he's got no confidence and hehas to come back at the end of
the season, it's just it's ano win situation for sure. Yeah,
one hundred percent. So hopefully hopefullythat Sam Donald, it can work because
if I can do have a toughschedule that yeah, yeah, yeah as

(34:45):
well. They got a really toughschedule this season, So I, like
Robbie said, you don't really necessarilywant to throw him to the Wolves.
There's not too much upside to that. Let him sit as long as he
can and learn, and hey,I mean this this offense is loaded,
this defense is retooled, and thenlike you said, they got a b
Flow co back. They definitely canmake the playoffs and make some noise.
It's just a really tough schedule totry to start a guy that's going into

(35:07):
his first season. Yeah, buton the offensive side of the ball,
they have shown, especially last season. The second half of last season when
Kirk Cousins was out that they wereable to piece things together and win games
with Josh Dobbs and even with NickMullins and that Lions game that was on
Christmas Eve, it came down tothe last play over the middle where he

(35:28):
threw an interception. Would have tiedthe game or or maybe put them ahead
by one. It may have giventhem the lead. I'm not sure if
it would have tied it or giventhem the lead. I think it would
have tied. It may have tiedit. Either way, it would have
extended the game and it didn't happen. Potentially, Darnold or McCarthy will make
those throws in the future. Ijust think on the defensive side of the
ball, Max, you're right,you hit it right on the head.
Just the infusion of new talent DallasTurner and they're gonna have to get things

(35:52):
worked out on the back end.But considering the way that they broke down
towards the end of last season dueto injuries, in effectiveness, and guys
kind of getting older, I justthink the infusion of young talent will propel
this defense to be a backbone ofthe team, just like it was early
last season when the offense kind ofwas sputtering at times. Robbie Hayley,

(36:15):
you guys are gigantic Vikings rubes headinginto this training camp and heading into the
preseason in the regular season. Whatare some lingering questions that you guys have
heading into training camp. I knowthere's Makai Blackman, unfortunately toward his acl
he's out for the season. Therewas an injury scare with Shaq Griffin yesterday,
I believe as well, so theVikings obviously looking to adds to their

(36:36):
depth that cornerback. But do youguys have any questions, lingering questions heading
into training camp slash the preseason?Well, I'm just excited to see Aaron
Jones injected into the offense and seewhat happens when we have a really strong
running game, because then that obviouslytakes a little heat off whoever is in
that quarterback. So I'm very excitedto see what he can do and the
fire that he brings in to whatwe have going on there. Having a

(37:00):
pass catcher and running back as well. It's just something the Vikings haven't had
in a couple of years. I'mcurious to see. From an emotional standpoint,
how the the passing of of KyrieJackson affects the team. We all
can't get in these players heads,we all can't get in the locker room.
Obviously was it was a tragic situationwhen U the line coach for the

(37:22):
Vikings, Tony Sperano died. Iremember that hit a bunch of the players
and the staff and the team,uh, really hard. And that came
I think that right right around thesame time of the season before before camp,
I believe. I think it wasthe night before. Zimmer used to
always have a party, shocking thatI know this celebrate the start of camp,

(37:43):
and I think it was the nightbefore Zimmer's party, and then camp
started a day or two later,if I have my timeline correctly. Yeah,
so something to hit and like that, and then obviously going back to
when we lost Corey, Yeah,obnestly. So just things like that and
kind of moment that can affect youoff the field and wondering how it does
affect But again it's it's a it'sa great tribute that they will be wearing

(38:06):
those decals and and and Dallas Turnerhas has his nameplate above his so it's
a really nice way to honor.I know a bunch of the staff and
some of the players went to theservices on Friday, and we'll we'll see
how it how it does affect them, and hopefully they can they can move
past it emotionally, but also yeah, but also rally around it and treasure

(38:28):
his memory forever. Yeah, there'sno good way to segue from that.
But I do have a comment aboutMike Zimmer because he might be the last
person I'd invite to a party.I thought you were gonna say Vice President.
No, he was the one throwingthe party. And there was a

(38:52):
friend of ours that was maybe goingto be performing one year at the party,
and he was going to invite mealong as a roadie so that I
could and then I didn't get aload of people in the hallways at the
party. Question, there's that,But no, he was the one throwing
the party. Apparently he did liketo have fun, and occasionally he could

(39:15):
smile every now, and that isshocking. The fan has learned breaking news.
Mike Zimmer liked to have fun.That is that is utterly shocking news
coming from I need I need visualproof of that. I know, no
one believed that I would have theMike Zimmer tea on the show. Did
you have one of those Zim Reapershirts back in the day, of course

(39:37):
I did. She also had ashirt that had him with his eye patch
on it. It was a Iwore it all the time. I finally
had to I had to get ridof multiple Mike Zimmer items of clothing when
and then I had to get ridof a Mike Zimmer bobblehead. You guys,
I had so much Mike Zimmer merchantand honestly, and you know who

(40:00):
else I was pot committed to TIBs. Of course, of course I did
not have any TIBs merch though,But yeah, I had to get rid
of an embarrassing amount of MICS merchwhen he got let go. That shocks
absolutely no one in the audience.She can't have a garage sale like but

(40:22):
stuff. Basically, final bit onthe Vikings training camp, Brett Blakemore,
you want to the resident packerbackers hereat the fan and we'll get into your
squad and just to second around thecorner. But as a Packers fan on
a scale at one to ten,how much do you fear the Vikings?
I don't know. Fear is theright, Well, how wary are you

(40:42):
of the Vikings as a as afan of a rival team in the sense
that you know we could lose adrop a game to them, Yeah,
sure, or lose you know thedivision. Well that in that sense,
I'm not to work. That seemsgood. I definitely think like in a
one on one, you know,if things go the right way and Darnold
is playing at his best, whichwe've seen it is there somewhere. You

(41:07):
see it every day on Twitter thathe just threw an amazing he just threw
as we're talking, another amazing passthat we need to talk about. I
like a lot of the surrounding pieces. Obviously, Aaron Jones goes out saying,
obviously Robert Tonyan goes without saying,but even if I'm not doing the
just packers bit, I mean JJis one of one. He is unbelievable.

(41:30):
The talent is there tj defense.That would be if you were gonna
ask me what my biggest question wouldbe is how to the new guys on
d the Grenards and the Van Ginkels, how do they fit into the Brian
Floores defense? Because at times theFlora's defense was great last year and looked
scary, and then at times theylooked like they were not at all playing

(41:52):
of Brian Flora's defense looked like atDonnatel was took the headset back at times.
So or maybe Mike Pednan took theheadset so too soon. Yeah,
exactly, So that would be mybiggest question is does the defense look intimidating
as it was earlier on in theseason. Well, I'm also curious to
get your thoughts on your squad,the Green Bay Packers who just paid a

(42:15):
Jordan Love a boat load of money. We'll get into that and more in
the mixed bag segment right around thecorner, worst case scenario hanging out with
you till one pm on the fanthe welcome back to worst case scenario.

(42:40):
Blazing hot day out there, man, stay hydrated, especially if you've got
an AFRO. It's tough for USafro heads out here. How was that
yesterday? Because yesterday was making infront of the air conditioning all day where
you violently hungover again, this timesworn off alcohol. I thought about you

(43:04):
yesterday and I was like, God, I hope Max is having a better
SAT weekend. Oh boy, Icould have been at a funeral and I'd
be having a better Saturday than I. That was rough, really really bad.
We opened the show talking about differentfestivals, what festival lineups we would
have if we were each in chargeof a festival, and we put it
up on Twitter. I'm curious whatthe polls say. Brett Blakemore, what

(43:28):
what what festival do the people wantto attend? Out of the Brett Bash,
the Blakemore Bash, the darling Fest, Roses what is it? Robbie
Ville, Rosieville almost robbie Ville,Robbieville and pro Fest what what? What
concert did the people want to attend? Yeah, Blakemore bashed running away with
it in the landslide. No,I'm just kidding. Actually not zero,

(43:49):
thank you very much. There hasbeen some, but not a lot.
Pro Fest leading the way fifty three. I'm surprised. It might just be
the name. The name. Itwas a little tick. I think it's
just the name. You about themerch for pro fests? How do you
not have Afroman? Yeah? Howis he out there? Yeah? He's

(44:14):
got like two songs. He's gonnado those two songs, like, yeah,
he actually he actually was supposed tobe at profests, but he got
high and he missed ouy okay withyou better. By the way, this
is true, not a made upstatistic. Robbieville and blakemore Bash both have

(44:37):
eleven percent of the vote. Ohthat's fair, this is this is not
a Taylor Swift crowd. Well no, so what Taylor Swift Country. Taylor
Swift Country. They don't remember oursong and Picture to Burn and some songs
like that. Darling Fest is attwenty five percent of them all. There
you go. I thought Darlingest wasgonna win. I hate every I'm very

(45:05):
competitive about this. That's why Iput it out there. You guys.
I'm running, folks. If Idon't be Blake more Bash, I may
just have to shut down operations.Man, just have to cease like Firefest.
No serious, if you're wondering.If you're wondering too, the uh
the fan favorite poll? Oh,get out your marvel pants fifty two point

(45:28):
nine percent of the vote. Wow. Talking about Robert Downing and Junior coming
back? Okay, well, robwe actually tried and we got nobody.
Unbelievable one day, I don't meetsaucege. Yeah, you know what the
good thing is we have? Oh, I don't know how many shows we
have left here to do. Wehave met ninety something days with the vice
presidential thing being relevant. So thereyou go, so we can we can

(45:52):
repurposit. There we go put topicsone time. Yeah, exactly. Yeah,
we don't favorite. It is veryfickle. It's such a it's such
a mixed bag of what the peoplewant. It depends on who's listening at
the time. And we love allour listeners, but they clearly have an
eclectic taste because I remember there wasI think three weeks in a row I
won, Max. I think whenwe first started, you had won,

(46:13):
a few weeks in a row,Haley had won, and then when Brett
won, I think Storytoppers, hewas so proud in there beaming, and
that was and that was one ofour better, better segments that we've done.
So it's it's kind of been amixed bag as we go along.
Thank you for that beautiful segue.Robbie Rosenhouse, you're a professional. You

(46:34):
are a professional like none other.Starting off with a little bit of sports,
the Packers agreed to terms with quarterbackJordan Love on a four year,
two hundred and twenty million dollar deal. That's fifty five million dollars per year,
which puts them on par with TrevorLawrence and Joe Burrow for the highest

(46:58):
salary not just in the league,in league history. Jordan Love is tied
for the most paid player in leaguehistory. After have a good So it'll
I'm curious. I'm curious about yourthoughts, Brett Blakemore because you were all
for it. You were like,sign them, give him a blaying check.
How do you feel about this historicdeal for your beloved and Jordan Love,

(47:22):
Well, it'll be a fun couplemonths of him being maybe a month
of him being the highest paid playerever because Dak Prescott's about to overtake him,
and that's and then the next QBis gonna overtake Dak and then the
next QB is going to take thata ceiling. But that's just that's how
and also the the league history.Here's the thing. I love it,

(47:42):
and I think you just have toplay the game. To me, there's
three options in this league. Youcan a draft a new quarterback every four
years and keep him on the rookiecontract, and when it comes time to
pay him, kick him to thecurb and draft a new one. And
good hope, best of luck toyou that that guy pans out, because
you could stink for four years andthen have to draft another one. Or

(48:02):
you can keep signing mediocre vets.That's option two. You know, you
could sign case Keenum, you couldsign uh Jay Cutler. You know,
I'm trying to think of non Vikingsrips. Or option three is you just
pay a quarterback who's good a boatloadof money. And that's the way the
Packers are going. That's the waya lot of teams are going. It's

(48:24):
way the Dolphins are going. TheCowboys are going to go that way.
And to me, give me,like I got in an argument so so
petty, I had an argument onTikTok with somebody because I was so fired
up about it. Geez. Soeverybody like, would you rather have CJ.

(48:45):
Stroud on his deal or Jordan Loveon his deal? Like, well,
if you're going to get rid ofStroud after three years, then give
me Jordan Love for twelve, youknow what I mean? Like that,
to me, that makes the mostsense of having more swings at it,
because he just has to get hotat the right time to win a big
game. Really, you have toit's I don't know, but the whole
he's only had a half good yearand I saw that. It wasn't just

(49:07):
you Max just saying it now.I mean I've seen it all day long
yesterday from the top criticism Levy.Yeah, A, they've seen him for
three years, four years now,so they know what they have. And
B what is the alternative that that'smy big comeback? Because the alternative is
you hold out, you have abig contract dispute. Now he's not playing.

(49:30):
Now you're stuck with the big reddog Sean Clifford. To me,
that doesn't seem like a very goodalternative. Or draft another quarterback and hope
for the best. You have toplay the game. That's the game.
And I think he's going to begood. I think it's going to make
it worth it. But if youwant to get on the franchise quarterback train,
it costs a price. Plus theymight have Aaron Rodgers PTSD. Yeah,

(49:53):
what about the whole thing looming overthem? So they're just like,
let's just get this out of theway. We don't want this guy sitting
out, we don't want all thiscontroversy. We're just gonna pay them the
money and like you said, youkind of have no. Eventually, somebody
one of these NFL teams, oneof these days is gonna they're gonna be
playing chicken with one of these quarterbacksand they're gonna be the one that keeps
driving. But that day was notyesterday or whatever day Jordan Love signed.

(50:13):
And I know I just wanted abig rant, but just very quickly.
If if the Packers did do that, and they didn't pay him, or
they were penny pinching, or theyyou know, made this longer process,
then the narrative would be, Oh, the Packers just don't know how to
treat their quarterbacks. They're always they'realways penny pinching with their quarterbacks, causing
drama. They don't know how toBut then they cave to the quarterback.

(50:34):
Oh, the Packers don't know whatthey're doing. They're paying way too much,
like they can't win no matter whatthey do. But that ends my
Packers speech. Hey, Aleen,Robbie, as I said last, the
two biggest Vikings rooms in this roomright now, both of you have furled
brows after listening to resident Packer packerBret Blake Moore talk about Jordan Love.
How do you guys feel about thisJordan Love deal. I don't go ahead,

(50:54):
Haley. It's just so interesting tohear someone talk about a quarterback when
they've had such concents distant quarterback playfor the last twenty five years. So
it's very I mean, it's justit's very interesting that you have this.
You're on your high horse in yourlife. Well, it'll probably work out,
because it's always worked out for us. I thought, I'm full of

(51:16):
If I was Brett and if Iwas a Packer fan, and if I
was in or in the Packer organization, I absolutely would have given this contract
to him. If you don't havea if you don't, you need to.
It's I know it goes without saying, but if you don't have one,
then then you're completely non competitive inthis league. He I think he
showed enough where they didn't give hima ten year, four hundred and fifty

(51:37):
million dollars deal like the Chiefs did, which now is turning out to be
a complete bargain. They didn't doit off of a playoff game against one
of the all time worst defenses inan NFL history that the Giants did with
Daniel Jones when they gave him adeal. He's not any good. It's
it seems like Jordan Love and hewon a playoff game. I just he

(51:59):
I believe that that he does havethe talent, and they've invested a lot
of time, like Brett said,and I think that in this division,
especially with the Vikings drafting McCarthy,and we know what Caleb Williams and the
Lions have. So I think itwas the absolutely correct move and I wish
him nothing but the worst. I'mcurious to any guys have thoughts about this,

(52:22):
because Jordan Love wasn't the only personthat got paid. On Friday.
The Dolphins in court and to atago vy loa tongueo vai loa, however
you pronounce it, they agreed toa four year, two hundred and twelve
million dollar extension, which is thebiggest in Dolphins history. Would you,
guys, rather have Tua or wouldyou rather have Jordan Love? Jordan Love,
because I don't want to his headinjuries. I think that those concussions

(52:44):
are going to follow him into thisseason, don't I wouldn't touch that with
a ten football, and I feelbad for him for that, but I
would go I would pick Jordan Lovefor sure, I would still take Tua.
I think his his his accuracy,his just I know he doesn't have
the strong arm in the world,but just the way he executes that offense
down there. And you got Hillrunning those deep routes and and and rontal

(53:07):
excuse me, ronteal Waddle running thosedeep crosses and and and over the middle.
And I just think the way thatthey kind of schemed it for him,
just like Saban did at Alabama whenwhen he was he was throwing to
wide open guys. If you gota guy who's accurate like that, scheme
guys open like KOs does. Herewe saw how accurate Cousins was, right,

(53:27):
he was a pretty accurate quarterback.So and and I think Too is
as accurate, if not more.And I would favor his career right now
over Jordan Love's. But I thinkLove is a pretty good quarterback. I
would, I would. I wouldadmit that I do not think. I
do not think he's Don's just it'sout and it's it's up in the air
whether he's going to be elite,you know, Packers quarterbacks of the past.

(53:52):
I want I want him to stayhealthy, but I want him to
be very subpart. Yes, hejust like okay enough to not get get
canned, but but skate through essentiallymiddle of the packed so they never get
that number one draft pick. AndPackers fans have just enough hope every year,

(54:15):
yes to get crushed and he stayshealthy. Yes, exactly right,
exactly with the Tua and Love bit, I just can't get that Chiefs game
out of my head for Tua wherehe just looked lost, and I get
it was like a record cold game. Uh, I'm pretty sure he has
like really small hands too for anNFL quarterback. Not good. The fan

(54:37):
has learned for cold games, especiallywith my team, you know, like
give me, give me Jordan Lovewhen he's half the season is going to
be in the freezing cold. Butjust the he looked he hasn't won a
playoff game, has he to A? I don't think he all. He
just doesn't feel like that prime timewhen the lights are the brightest type player
quite yet. Maybe he will be, but uh, in his little sample

(55:00):
size, I thought Love look reallysolid in his two playoff games that he
played. I do agree with youabout the prime time bigger and because like
Robbie said, that Dolphins team iscompletely engineered to all of Tua's strengths,
and he still hasn't been able to. I mean, last year he had,
he had the four thousand passing yards, He was phenomenal last year,
just they just ran into the KansasCity Chiefs and in the coldest game and

(55:22):
then one of the coldest games inNFL history. So you can't super fault
him for that. But there hasbeen time that Dolphins have had struggles in
the second half of their seasons overthe last couple of years to a like
Haley mentioned, has injury problems.Although well apparently he took like judo or
something like that to try to learnhow to fall better. It seemed like
kept him in the game last year, so because he said part of it
was on him. But he doeshave that injury history. So that's a

(55:42):
tough question. I might have toroll Jordan Love on that one. I
will say though, that I dothink the Dolphins take a big step back
this year because I think the Jetswith Rogers will take their place in kind
of ascending there. I think Ithink the Jets, and I'm not a
Jets fan by any stret but Ido think the Jets are primed for a
big season on both sides of theball if Rogers stays of sound, mind

(56:04):
and focus and stays on the fieldbecause he was gone after three plays last
year. But I just don't thinkthat. I do think I believe into
a long term, but this yearspecifically, I think they just take a
minor step back. Yeah, AFCEast is going to be a cutthrow division,
a quick on air production meeting.You guys want to continue with the
mixed bag segment next segment or doyou want to switch and talk Olympics or
do both combine them? I votefor both. I'll go with both as

(56:28):
well. Both sounds okay, allright, Then we'll continue with the mixed
bag, A little bit of this, a little bit of that, plus
some summer twenty twenty four Olympics inthe second hour of worst case scenario coming
at you right after this, Thefair second hour of worst case scenario is

(57:23):
back. We are live, weare local, and we're not the only
thing that's back. The twenty twentyfour Summer Olympics has gotten underway, and
we talked about it before. We'reall big Olympic nerds, and I don't
know to see Steph courage has hitthat three and just walk away. He's
crazy, dude. That South Sudangame that I think they're locked in US

(57:44):
is currently up on Serbia one tento eighty four. They just won the
game absolutely crush. Hey, NikolaJokic and the Serbians in their opening game
of the in their Quest for Gold. Curious to see how Anthony Edward was
doing a solid Brown was just lightedup. He's just been I mean,
he's been the star of the Olympicsthus far, just in general. That

(58:06):
guy was just actually about to saythe whole opening sam everything about the Olympics
this year, it feels like it'sback lightly. I get that it was
different because of COVID and everything,but it felt like for a long time,
like you know, back in theday the Olympics, they made household
names. People became famous purely offof their performances at the Olympics, and
for a while it just felt likeit wasn't that star studded. We weren't

(58:27):
getting all these same stories, weweren't getting making all these household names.
But now it feels like it's backto presentation. NBC has been lights out
with their presentation. How about thatred zone like style thing with the multiview
where you can watch multiple events.It's amazing. Ye to your point,
Max, I saw a tweet yesterdaythat I thought was so perfect. It
says we used to care so muchmore about the Olympics when those picks of
Michael Phelips smoking a bond came out. My uncle said this can't be happening

(58:52):
and went for it. Really didcare so much more, And then you
know, it took a dive intwenty twenty one because it just seems so
weird and everyone's wearing a mask andthey can't go out like they do normally,
and everything's so understated. But thisyear it's in Paris and it just
does seem bigger and so back.For sure. Snoop Dogg is there at

(59:15):
the Olympic torch. He did notdrop it like it's hot. I'm sure
somebody's made that joke. I shouldhave looked this up. But Flavor sponsoring
an Olympic women's team, that's oneof my favorite stories. That's what we're
talking about. That, Yeah,Flavor Flave. He found out that some
of those some of those gals,I think it's the water polo team's water
polo team. He found out someof those gals had part time jobs and

(59:37):
other jobs that they and he's like, no, bleep that, Like they're
not making enough money. So FlavorFlave has been sponsoring them. He was
even helping them train. I don'tknow if he saw that video a couple
of weeks ago. He was swimmingwith them and helping. He had the
swim cap on and everything. FlavorFlav an unexpected star of Yeah, maybe
he was sinking because of the clockeasy. He's a huge star. And

(59:59):
our first lady was over there spendingtime with with our athletes. And as
I told Max, she was picturedthere with Flavor Flav at the water polo
thing. And and as Brett said, water polo and as you guys agreed,
like water polo is really cool andand it and it comes into focus
here for men and women here inthe in the Olympics, and when it
comes around, we're always like,oh, yeah, this is awesome,

(01:00:21):
this is great, and then everybodyforgets about it. Yeah, I'm not
gonna yeah, I'm not gonna goNBC twelve so I can watch them show
yeah exactly, which I apparently they'reshowing something on there today, I act
started championship. One of the listenerstexted it and so I'm sure you guys
are locked in on that. Iam not, sir, but it definitely
feels like it has that aura again, as the kids say, it has

(01:00:43):
that vibe. Even just the openingceremony, Lebron James looking like la founding
American flag. It was amazing andall the memes that come from that,
and how cool is that that himand Cocoa Goth get to be the flag
bearers. And I just thought itwas also really cool that there's son.
There was many US Olympians there obviously, and they're the top at their sport,
and almost all of them from anysport. We're still fanboying and fangirling

(01:01:07):
at Lebron James and Steph Curry likeI'm not seeing all the you know,
the whole thing with the ping pongteam coming up to Steph Curry and Anthony
Edwards and he's saying he can beatthe ping pong team or at least score
a point on them. You know, you got gymnasts and and fencers and
everybody coming up to Lebron James justlike it, even though that they're in
Paris, competing representing their nation forthe highest honor in their sport. They're

(01:01:29):
still like, oh my god,that's Lebron's like, that's how cool that
guy is? Man? And andCoco Golf to your to your point,
one of the one of the uh, the torch bears, Haley, I
have a question for you here becauseCoco apparently in the and the and the
women's tennis team have moved out oftheir Olympic village spot because it's ten girls

(01:01:49):
for two bathrooms. So tell mehow how you think you would handle that
if you were in that situation.Not gonna work? Yeah, yeah,
that's just absolutely not. Not enoughoutlets because you got your hair dryers going,
your curl, curling irons, straighteners, whatever, you're trying to brush
your teeth and then there's ten peoplegot to go to the bathroom and absolutely

(01:02:10):
not. That's just that just soundslike chaos and you would have to have
a schedule. This sounds like likethe Brady Bunch had an easier time with
those six kids, Like, absolutelynot. You can't make that happen.
Yeah, I can't be locked inon my sport if I'm waiting because somebody's
due kid in the bathroom and Iget my hair right, you know what
I'm saying. And I'm getting rushed, Like my hair needs to look perfect

(01:02:31):
if I'm going to be on theOlympic stage. And I can't have five
minutes to get this together. Solike I need my twenty five minutes in
the shower. Fifteen of it existentialdread, ten of it actually showering,
Like I need that time in thebathroom. You know what minutes is a
concert? Yeah, there's been somany different great stories. It's just been

(01:02:52):
so much fun. I was lockedin on fencing yesterday like it was a
super Bowl. Yeah, I wasall in on fencing. It was it
was all some surfing kind of sucked. I was disappointed by surfing. Yeah,
most I thought it was just gonnabe like like Rocket Power, like
sick, just the dudes and hicksriding waves. But it's mostly and I
get it. They can't control it. Somebody's Poseidon around here, but they're
just sitting there waiting for the rightwave. The whole time it was it

(01:03:14):
was really boring. I didn't wantto do the hands from Rocket Power.
No, no, nobody did.Nobody did that. Hayley, what have
you been watching on the Olympics.So I couldn't sleep last night and my
insomnia finally worked in my favor,and so this morning I got to watch
the women's gymnastics all around qualifier thatthe USA was in, and it was
insane. I told you guys lastweek that I am a gymnastics room when

(01:03:36):
it comes to the Olympics. Icried watching the qualified to watch these women
living out their dream. And it'sso cool because we have four members of
the twenty twenty one team back.This is the oldest team that we've ever
had. We have and then wehave one sixteen year old who's the newest
member on the team. And itwas just incredible to watch Simone Vile because

(01:04:00):
obviously in twenty twenty one she droppedout because she had a case of the
twisties and she I watched her documentaryon Netflix called Simone Viles Rising, and
she basically just talked about how shefell out of love with gymnastics and going
to the Olympics in twenty twenty onewas such a different experience because it was
still COVID times. They were quarantinedevery morning, they had to get spit

(01:04:21):
tested to make sure that they couldstill participate, and her coach said that
it was all gymnastics all the timeat the Olympics. They didn't get to
fratnize with other people. They didn'tget to joke around like Aunt got to
do with the table tennis team.They just basically went to practice and then
they went back to their room andthen focused on gymnastics. And then you're
scrolling social media. You just can'tget away from it. So she had

(01:04:45):
to drop out and everyone was comingfor They're like, you're the goat.
How do you not perform in theOlympics. This is what you're supposed to
be there for. So her documentarywas all about her prepare four the Olympic
trials this year, so it wasvery interesting and then to actually watch her
go out and she crushed. Imean she didn't she well, yeah,

(01:05:11):
So she officially has five moves namedafter her. She's the only person in
the world to have five moves namedafter her, and she's petitioning to have
a sixth move named after her,and then once she does, then she
will have a move named after herin all four categories of women's gymnastics.
So she's just I mean, she'sincredible. Imagine being so good at something

(01:05:32):
that you're like, this isn't evenenough, Like I'm gonna make up my
own stuff because y'all can't even keepup with me. This is This might
be a preposterous statement, but watchingher do gymnastics is a privilege. She
is so talented and graceful and strong, and so it was just so fun
to watch her. And there waskind of a mishap. She went from
beam to floor exercise and during herpractice on floor exercise she tweaked her ankle

(01:05:58):
a little bit. They had totape. It was hobbling around. It
was terrifying. I'm like at theedge of my seat thinking, oh my
god. You know, she's finallythere mentally, and then her body's not
standing up for her. So shegot through it. She crushed. Laurie
Hernandez was a member of the twentysixteen Olympic team, and she said she
uh, simone performed her uneven barsbetter than she had ever seen her do

(01:06:21):
it her she crushed her vaults.I mean it was incredible. And then
you know, we love a localangle one of us, sunny Lee.
She qualified for the second all aroundposition and she's going to be defending her
title. She won gold in twentytwenty one because Simone dropped out. I
mean not because that and say that. I don't want to take away from

(01:06:42):
her. She's incredibly talented. Sure, it's like the guy that won the
Nathan's Hot Dog You, yes,won because Joey Chestnut wasn't there, Like
that would have been a significant hurdle. Yeah. Yeah, And so this
is the first time that two OlympicAll around gold medalists are going to be
going head ahead for the So it'sthere's a lot at stake this. I'm
so excited. I'm so proud ofour Tradama. They are incredible women.

(01:07:03):
So it was awesome, but itis the best of them because that's not
something you think about on a weekbut you were bawling this morning. That's
the best part of the Olympics islike you don't even necessarily know these people's
stories or these histories, but thenthey inform you and you're locked in.
Like yesterday, I was watching themen's gymnastics and they're talking about the Japanese
guy that he was like the bestin the world and he's having such a
hard day and they're like astounded byit, and I'm like feeling bad for

(01:07:23):
I don't know this guy existed untilfive minutes before that. They're just it's
such an incredible experience just in general. Back in two thousand and six,
the Vikings played a preseason game inBaltimore. Was living on the East Coast,
and after the game that night,the Olympics were I believe they were
in China, so Michael Phelps wasgoing for the gold medal record that night,

(01:07:44):
and they had all the fans inthe stadium because Michael Phelps is from
Baltimore, hold up placards and everybodygot together in the stadium and held up
placards, and the entire worldwide feedthey did a fly over the stadium and
it spelled Phelps out as he brokethe record, and I happened to be
there because I'm a Viking fan drivingdown to go to the game, and
it was just really cool and acool moment. Obviously still holding the record

(01:08:05):
for the most gold medals, butit just goes to show you how much
of an impact like Simone Biles,like Michael Phelps can have on on on
culture, on just society. Andwe're kind of getting a new crop of
star Caleb dressol As in the KatieKatie Leadecki, Sha Carrie Richardson and Noah
Lyles on the track the Crop ofStars, and that's kind of it just

(01:08:27):
feels like the Olympics is back andit is absolutely well. And one thing
I do want to say about SimoneBiles before we stop Simone biles fan line
is that an interesting point that theymade on the broadcast today is that she
has kind of changed the culture ofthe Olympics and this elite athleticism that athletes
are now working smarter, not harder, where it used to be like how

(01:08:49):
much can you beat your body down? How many hours can you be in
the gym? Now athletes are takingcare of their mind, they're they're eating
different, they're making sure that theyhave time for their friends in their family,
and they're trying to live more balancedlives. So I think that's such
a credit to people like Simone Bilesand Michael Phelps who have come out about
mental health and really talked about thoseimportant things that these aren't just machines.

(01:09:11):
These are people who have feelings andthey get stuck in a rut and they
have to take care of themselves orthey're gonna burn out. And that's important
for us as fans to know aswell. Like honestly, we know,
we know in our hearts, butlike a lot of people don't see athletes
as necessarily like real human being people. They have emotions, they're just like
us. Like they're not like yousaid, they're not machines. On the
Bradshawn Bryant KFA and text line sixfour six eighty six, Jake from Granted

(01:09:33):
Fall says, rumor is that Maxhas six moves named after him. Oh,
I didn't want to say, youknow what I'm saying. I want
to take those shine from some owebiles. But you know, I got
a couple. I got a coupleof moves named after me as well.
You know, six, maybe anine. You know what I'm saying.

(01:09:53):
You know I got a quote unquoteput it in reverse, Yeah exactly.
Jach Callerson go crazy and real quick. Just to actually make this a mixed
bag segment since we just went alongon the Olympics, because we're also locked
in down on the Olympics and Ilove it. I wanted to mention the
women's cheating scandal, which I thinkis super fascinate at the Canadian women's soccer
team. I think that's super fascinating. They're flying drones over another team's practice,

(01:10:17):
which I'm like, is this justgoing to be the evolution of cheating
now or using drones? Like,how is artificial intelligence going to be involved?
It's so crazy to me. Well, I heard Barrero and Brett talking
about that this morning and they werespying on New Zealand, who has a
terrible soccer team apparently, and it'slike, that's like getting a hall pass
and choosing to bang a zero,Like why watching New Zealand play soccer?

(01:10:41):
And what are you doing in Colorado? Yeah, that's funny. No,
seriously though, I mean think aboutstanding on the pitch training your team right
and looking up at the sky andelbowing your your your fellow coach and saying,
what the heck is that? Like, it just doesn't make any sense

(01:11:02):
to me. Clearly, the coacheshave been suspended, they've been docked points
because it opened the whole the floodgatesbecause apparently they've been doing this for years,
the men's and the women's teams.They've been filming people's practices and it's
just It's just mind blowing to methat we've had we have cheating scandals that
are old school, like banging ontrash cans, cheating scandals involving drones flying

(01:11:24):
over people's practices, and again,I'm curious to see, like what the
evolution of cheating is going to beas technology continues to evolve. I'm still
mad about them trying to cheat andtaking all those monopoly pieces from McDonald's and
holding the park place. It's like, what the hell, Like, how
much money did I try and spendtrying to figure out whether or not I
can get a park place. I'mjust shocked that it was Canada as well,

(01:11:46):
Like, yeah, exactly as Max. I mean, I feel like
every Olympic cycle there's at least oneneighbor cheating scandal, but nobody ever thinks
it's going to be our friendly neighborsto the north in Canada. Russia can't
blame Canada. We can we blameCanada and Southard reference. There we go
from cheating on the pitch to possiblycheating on a spouse. We're gonna get

(01:12:10):
into the worst case scenario, LoveLine. A couple more segments to go.
We will close out the show withthe fan favorite segment, Brett Blake,
Moore Win. Do the polls saywe'll be discussing in that final segment,
Well, it's it's almost certainly goingto be Robert Downe and Junior coming
back as Doctor Doom. I alsowould like to touch on Deadpool if we
can. Yeah, it would bea Saw movie review incoming. So it

(01:12:31):
looks like we'll be talking m SEUand the final segment, we're talking a
little bit of love on the corner. Worst Case Scenario. The penultimate segment

(01:13:20):
of Worst Case Scenario will be closingout with the fan favorite segment, and
it looks like we'll be talking Marvelmovies. But for right now, this
segment, we're talking love. We'relovers more than fighters here at worst Case
Scenario. We're lovers and we're friendsmuch like Urscher, Little John and Ludacris.
So we're gonna open up the cafein love line. I got a

(01:13:43):
couple scenarios here that I pulled fromvarious forums on the Internet, people asking
for relationship advice. If you theLovely Listener has any relationship advice that you're
seeking six four six eight six,you can text us call US eight hundred
three two zero five three two six. I'm curious this these there's two stories
are interconnected, and your answer forone is going to be dependent on the
other. So I'm really curious toyou guys' thoughts on this. Okay,

(01:14:05):
this first person, first scenario.My husband and I have been married for
three years. We have one child, four months old, Lucky. Recently,
I've had a gut feeling that he'shiding something for me. He was
signed into my laptop and I decidedto look at his Google photos and I
found a screenshot of a quote longterm friend, the quote don't worry about

(01:14:26):
her friend quote, and a screenshotof them texting. It was sexting actually
in fact, and she said itwas like a role play. She's like,
of course, I freaked out,and my husband came home from work
early. He's reasoning as he's saying, it's something they've done back and forth
for years, not consistently, butrandomly, and she said she texted the
friend as well, and the friendsaid the same thing, that they've only

(01:14:49):
ever sexted and they've never actually doneanything. Do you guys think that the
husband is that cheating, is sextingcheating, Yes it is. And yeah
if I was her and the friendthat the fact that she admitted it,
Yes, it's definitely cheating for sure. One hundred total. I totally agree.

(01:15:14):
Yeah, I mean sexting, Yeah, that has to include some sort
of multi media and yeah, yes, I don't know. I think the
lines are a little blurry on thisone. Really really role playing is kind
of extreme, like you're fully in, You're fully immersed into it. Like
that's not just a little like hey, what's that girl? Like you know,
like that's like the scenario. Youknow, that's just no, you

(01:15:42):
gotta know more details, Harry Potteror like what is it? What is
the deal? You know what I'msaying. Like, So, I don't.
I don't know. I think it'sa weird. I think it's a
case by case thing. I don'tknow, Max, this is very very
much. It wasn't. This isthe worst take since you took off your
socks. You don't got to bringthat back up. We just recently forgave

(01:16:06):
me for that. I still thinkabout that. Yeah, so I'm assuming
you're on Haley and Robbie boat.Yeah, that sexting is cheating no matter
what. Yeah, don't be doingwith other people. Don't be doing that.
So even if there's no pictures oranything, it's just words, it's
just a story. It's but itgoes beyond like the like just thinking about

(01:16:27):
it, you know what I mean, Like it's it's you take a step
further with another person. No,yeah, it was no, because then
when you're involved with your significant other, than the thoughts of the other person
are definitely going through your mind andthen and then but obviously you yeah,
absolutely, but only in your mindthat you cheating. But now you're asking

(01:16:49):
the audience if you think that inthere. Yeah, absolutely, I totally
agree. It's like a murder trial. It requires intent like sexting. Yea
great take. I watched How toget Away with Murder the other day show.
Yeah, well maybe I should makeHow to get Away with Cheating here

(01:17:11):
on this boat. But I'm curiousthis next scenario also involves a similar situation.
But I'm curious you guys' thoughts onthis and and listeners six four,
six eighty six if you want tochime in as well and share your thoughts
about these scenarios. I'm twenty four, my boyfriend is twenty six. We've
been together for six years, andhe proposed to me this afternoon. Oh
god, it was sweet and itwas cute. Honestly, it was the

(01:17:32):
best day ever. We had dinnerto celebrate, and I fell asleep.
Everything was great until my boyfriend wokeme up, telling me he had a
terrible confession to make. He admittingto cheating on me three years ago.
Boyfriend said that when we were ina long distance relationship, he sexted some
girl he knew from high school onenight. We just signed an apartment together

(01:17:53):
last week, and I literally justcalled all my close relatives and friends to
share the news of our engagement.To top it off, we're on an
international tri and now I'm stuck ina hotel with him in a foreign country.
He profusely apologized for the cheating andit was and he said it was
the worst mistake of his life andpromised that he hadn't cheated on me before
or since this specific incident. Ireally thought we had a great relationship before

(01:18:15):
this, and now I don't knowif I should forgive him or to break
up with him. So I mean, I mean Bernie and weekend, and
Bernie's wasn't dead, so I thinkhe was sarcast I mean, this is
just it's it's a slam dunk withthe other one. In my opinion,

(01:18:38):
once you've crossed that bridge, you'vecrossed it, and it's easier to cross
it again. So I'm fully outon that. I just I think him
locking her into the situation is whatis the troubling part. Like if you
if you want to do the sexthing and whatever, I might have you
back on that, brother, Butdepending on what you were saying. But

(01:18:59):
I mean, first of all,he also referred to it as self referred
to it as cheating, So clearlythat's the true their standards are they get
out of this rose. But himproposing to her and and locking in a
least first and then doing it,that seems like particularly manipulative to me,
And that lets me know that hewas like, Okay, she's probably gonna

(01:19:23):
leave me if I do this,so let me lock her inwork. You
don't bring paperwork into that money Likethat's really sinister to me. That makes
it, that makes it weird.Like you said, it's manipulative for sure,
I agree with you, but Idon't. I don't know if I
would break up with them. Imean, you just said yes to an
engagement. You just called all yourfriends and your family, You're on an

(01:19:45):
international trip, and everything was allgood until that one thing. Is that
something you can work Does it makea difference that they were in a long
distance relationship, Yes, I thinkthat is something you could work through.
But what my my first red flagin this is that she's like, I
just got proposed to tonight, nomatter what happened immediately that night when I

(01:20:10):
got proposed to, I'm not runningto the internet to ask for advice.
I'm calling my best friend. I'mnot running to the internet. So that's
my first red flag that she's lookingfor advice from strangers on what to do.
And maybe she's embarrassed about the situationbecause she did just call them and
tell them that she got engaged.But if you don't have at least that

(01:20:30):
one person that you can go tono judgment, who's going to have your
back, and you have to goto the internet, there's a problem right
there, and you're more likely totake the internet's advice. That seems wrong
to me. You shouldn't be takingthe internet's advice on your relationship when it's
that deep. For sure. Thetext line is I'm getting ripped. Yeah,

(01:20:56):
exclamation points sex thing is cheating,bro, Max? This is disturb
Sam okay, disturbing news started thedocumentary Surviving Max full or disturbing. I
mean, come on, someone said, what if your significant other is hiding
toys from me? Was that cheating? Are we talking about a yo?
Yo, we're talking finger trap.I'll tell you guys something off here.

(01:21:19):
By the way, did you guyshear about the the Italian speaking of Olympics
and potential cheating? Did you hearabout this Italian high jumper? What his
uh he lost air quotes? Well, he did lost his wedding ring in
Paris, and he claims he lostit because he was holding up the Italian
flag during the ceremony so high thathe lost. My first question is is

(01:21:43):
his wife in Italy right with him? Because but he made this big spectacle
of like, oh well, we'llthrow your wedding ring in the river too,
and then we'll both get new onesas a sign of your of our
love together. To me, thisscreams, you suddenly lost your wedding ring
at the Epics where people are sohorned up, and in Paris too,
and you suddenly lost it. Comeon, Yeah, that's in the first

(01:22:09):
page of the book. Come on, Brett. I thought you had a
really good point about the cardboard beds, and then everyone in the Olympic village
is horny, hockey level horny.So I thought that was a really good
point. But also about throwing bothof their rings in the river. First
of all, wasting a ring,that's insane. Second, isn't it that
bridge in Paris across the river thateveryone puts their locks with their initials on

(01:22:33):
them, and then it's like,Oh, we're going to be together forever,
but the French government comes in andcuts the locks off. I think,
yeah, I think it's a badsign to have both of your rings
in the water. Just get hima new ring. And he totally made
this up, and he's trying todo it like for love or country,

(01:22:54):
right, Yeah. Well that's alsoit kind of plays into what I think
might be going on in this scenariothat we read. What if if this
guy is only admitting to the sexthing because he knows he did something else,
and he's trying to say like themost innocuous thing to get ahead of
it, you know what I'm saying, Like he'll admit to one thing,
but he did some other stuff thathe's not gonna admit to. But he's

(01:23:14):
Ye. Is it the lonely highwayhere? Like you know from people that
are friends that I've had that havecheated them friends, Yeah, some of
my buddies. Oh yeah, secondhandsecondhand serenade. If it had been anything
more, I don't think he wouldhave said anything at all. I think
he would have just kept it.Oh yeah, I think he had guilty

(01:23:35):
conscience and that's why he brought itup. If it had been more than
that, he would have tried tohide it forever. Yeah, I do
think. I just I just thinkit's super manipulative to do it after the
engagement and after the least. That'sthat's what makes it sinister. And that's
when you have to go to counselingand stuff like that. You got to
go to therapy. Bro, that'snot healthy. That's a gigant. It's

(01:23:55):
a blazing Crimson. What is it? The August Burns red br That's like
trying to trap someone with a baby, kind of like a lease as a
baby. Do you guys think becausefor me, that's one and done,
Like I'm that to me? Isan uncrossable bridge. No, no forgiveness,
No, no, I don't know. It's more complicated. It's more

(01:24:17):
complicated. Sometimes I've been in thatsituation before and it seems cut and dry,
but sometimes you're just Sometimes love islike a cult, man. You
can't really see your way out,Like you can't see you cannot see reality,
your your your vision is very muchclouded. So some I've been there
before, So I can't fault anybodyif they didn't choose to forgive someone for
that, especially like you said,You're like you just called your mom,

(01:24:39):
like what are you gonna call herback in two hours? And big Mom,
actually, you know so and soseated on me. I think the
biggest lesson from what you just said, Max is that you never know what's
really going on in anyone's relationship,and each relationship is so situational that you
can't just say, just because yourboyfriend cheated on you, you have to
break up with them, Like,yeah, people can work through different things

(01:25:00):
and it's up to the couple tofigure that out. Now. Hopefully you
have family and friends that support youin that. But I don't think it
can be cut and dry and youcan just say it's over there, And
usually when cheating's involved, there's amillion other reasons why the couple shouldn't be
together. But if there's not andyou can work through it, then you
work through it. The patience isa virtue, and patience is something that

(01:25:25):
does not come easily for many people. So hopefully those people in that situation
have a lot of it. Leavinga joke on the table there, I
just got a text on the sixfour six eight six Bradshawn Brian text line.
I'm not sure the veracity of thestationment, but its situation that we're
gonna have got Someone texted it andsays six to one to two. Galer

(01:25:47):
guy says, I walked in onmy husband having sex with a doll that
looks exactly like my neighbor. Isthat cheating? I wouldn't say it's cheating,
but that's really freaking weird. Yeah, that's weird. I don't know
how you get past that. Itis different. I mean, yeah,

(01:26:10):
I'm not I'm not sure. I'mnot sure I want to touch that with
a ten foot what they called hthose h exactly. Yes, they're never
going to be the same. Talkabout oh my gosh, I mean,
how much like the neighbor. I'mnot defending this guy, don't rip me
text, but I mean I guessit like it is a custom thing.
These dogs get pretty in these day. Yeah, exactly, So again,

(01:26:31):
your friends, is it a kindof a cutout over just a random what
is it doll whatever? Or isit an actual custom situation. Yeah,
either way, it's really weird.And that's something that Yeah, that might
be. That might be what whatwas the phrase you brought an uncrossed the
ball bridge. Once you crossed,you can't cross it. That's not I
don't know if I'd be able toget over that. So the state farm

(01:26:55):
would come out with it might bebro like we couldn't have like a good
day. I want to have somefun too, That's all I'm saying.
Appreciate everybody timing on the six foursix eight six Bradshaw and Bryant text line.
We're gonna need to disinfect this textext. It's a couple of scenarios that

(01:27:16):
I won't even bring up on worstcase scenario because they're that they are that
too bad. We'll close out theshow with the fan favorite segment Brett Blake

(01:28:04):
for the week. Final segment ofworst case scenario for the week. But

(01:28:33):
we'll be back same time, sameplace, next Sunday, talking more.
Olympics will be in the real throwsof training camp. All of us will
be seeing a super Bowl in theVikings future. We got ww Monday Night
Raw in town. Next week,all right, next week, tomorrow,

(01:28:53):

Hailey's super pumped about it. She'salready given her pick. She puts
down, she put down, Irun an illegal gambling rings. But that

(01:29:16):
is not what we were talking aboutin this final segment for the week,
we're talking Marvel movies, because therewas a pretty gigantic week, probably one
of the biggest weeks in Marvel moviesexistence over the last couple of days.
Five for sure. Yeah, theyreleased Deadpool three, which I mean,
I think you would agree we're bothpretty big Marvel movie guys. But this
is the biggest movie they've released sinceThe Avengers the last Absolutely, I mean

(01:29:42):
certainly, the numbers are talking.They're probably going to cross the billion mark.
It's the number one in the world, the third time that these Deadpool
movies have done that. The firsttwo made over a billion dollars. There
was some concern, not a lot, but some concern that because it's a
Disney thing now that it's in thecarve Old Cinematic universe, that I'm seu
Disney doesn't traffic. The listeners areunfamiliar. Deadpool is a very rated,

(01:30:06):
like Capital R rated movie. Ifyou thought that last segment of ours was
disturbing, yeah, close your eyesduring Deadpool because there's a lot of graphic
violence, a lot of graphic language, but obviously it's done tastefully. It's
done in a funny way, andthey blended all together with the action.
But like you said, yeah,there was a there was a bit of
a worry because Disney doesn't that trafficin the R rated realm very often.

(01:30:28):
And let me tell you, theydid not water it out, not even
a little bit at all. Itkind of it feels like they almost went
out of their way to do alittle bit, a little bit of sauce
onto it, you know what I'msaying. Yes, yeah, here's my
thing with Deadpool and no spoilers here. I'm not gonna spoil the movie,
but as a movie itself in avacuum if it I loved it. I
thought it was brilliant. I thoughtit was so hard throughout the movie.

(01:30:51):
It was so funny, hilarious.It might be the funniest one. Yeah,
I think it's the funniest one.The action was good. My problem
with it, oh, is thatI left a little disappointed because and I
don't think this is a spoiler becauseit's still a good movie. If you
if it could be a minor spoiler, So I'll give you three two.

(01:31:13):
It doesn't feel like it's in thatuniverse, right, Yeah, Like I
wanted to see Deadpool interact with likea Spider Man or a Doctor Strange or
someone, and we really didn't getthat. And that's I guess that's because
my own expectations. But I expectedit to be an MCU and Ryan Reynlds
even tweeted out like, yeah,it's not an MCU movie. It's more
of like saying goodbye to the FoxUniverse and all the X Men stuff.

(01:31:36):
So I guess I just had myexpectations in the wrong place. But fantastic
movie. I loved every bit aboutYeah, no, I agree, it
doesn't really like I think people thoughtit would be like this big you know,
a big alley for the rest ofthe next five years or so.
But it wasn't really that, andthat's what they like. That's what they
left the comic Con announcement for yesterday. That's kind of what was the big
setup. But like you said,as a movie in and up itself,

(01:31:59):
it gives you absolutely everything you couldhave wanted in terms of action, in
terms of jokes, and there's gratuitousamounts of cameos and they tongue in chicily
mentioned that I can't believe they gotthe one some of those ones I was
like the theater actually like erupted,like it was like whoa, you know,
it was. It was crazy.It was a lot of fun,

(01:32:20):
and there was a lot riding onthis because I think over the last five
years or so and me and youare both victims of it, and we
loved I grew up loving kind Itwas my first love in life is comic
books and superheroes. And even Ihad the superhero fatigue, even you had
the superhero fatigue. Like we werekind of you weren't watching every single episode
of every single show exactly, That'swhat I'm saying, not watching Echo Disney.

(01:32:43):
Sorry. Everybody kind of was like, we're not out on superheroes,
but we're just kind of like,okay, like what's the next thing?
And every pretty much everything was ridingon this movie being as I mean,
Marvel wasn't going to go out ofbusiness if it wasn't a good movie.
But this this the whole future ofthis thing. This is the high which
I think I just saw this saythat it's the highest grossing movie film franchise
ever. Yeah, the first oneto reach like twenty billion dollars or something

(01:33:06):
like that. This is a giganticthing. And like, obviously I just
love movies in general. A lotof the film industry has been reliant on
Marvel and the money that they're making. So this was a gigantic There was
huge stakes riding on it, andI thought they knocked it out of the
park. You guys are clearly thetarget audience for the cinematic universe. So
when it comes to oversaturation, isit more of you? Guys would accept

(01:33:30):
more movies if they were this good? Like you enjoyed this one? Or
are you okay with? Kind ofabsence makes the heart grow fonder a a
in a lot of facets of life. So when you're waiting, everybody,
this movie was so well anticipated andit seems to have met expectations. You
guys both loved it. Which kindof camp do you fall in when it
comes to I'm kind of in betweenbecause it did help that. I mean,

(01:33:53):
it's been almost a year since thelast time you put out a movie,
so I did it was kind oflike, all right, I'm sick
of these. It felt like sidequests, you know what I'm saying.
Let's get back to the main story. Let's get back to the big hitters.
I get that they're trying to establishall these other guys, and they
you know, they had success.I mean nobody. I'm a comic book
guy. I barely knew who thehell the Guardians of the Galaxy was and

(01:34:14):
that movie made a bleieve ton ofmoney, you know what I'm saying.
So I think they thought, hey, we can take any care. They
were red hot. It was likein basketball, when you shoot a shot
from the half court, it's aheat check. They're like, we can
make any superhero do whatever we want. We can make money off of any
superhero. And then the narrator cameoverhead and was like, that is not
the case. It just felt likeit felt like their movies weren't advancing the
universe forward. That's what made itthe Infinity Song so cool is that you

(01:34:36):
felt like you had to see somethingin order to understand the next one and
to set it up for the nextone, and these ones were just kind
of like, yeah, it's allover the place. By the way,
we haven't touched on the actual thing, which is Robert Town and Junior he's
back. He was obviously, asmost people know, he is Iron Man,
but now they just announced that heis going to be doctor Doom,

(01:34:56):
the big the main villain of theFantastic for one of the big villains in
the entire Marvel comic and movie universe. He's going to be the fanos essentially
of these next upcoming Marvel movies.Robert Downey Junior is back in the Fold.
I think much too. A lotof people shock, and I'm shocked.
I didn't see it coming. Idid see some guy on Twitter that
tweeted it that morning. He said, we're only like X amount of hours

(01:35:17):
away from Robert. I don't know. I never would have guessed that.
And the comic books, there issome precedent for the two characters. Happened.
They have a connection, They havesome some sort of relationships. I
hope they don't personally, but Ihope he's playing a completely different person and
he looks different, and I hopeI don't even recognize him at all.
Think about how think about how goodan actor he is, all the way

(01:35:38):
back to like late seventies, earlyeighties and now doing Marvel movies. Awesome
after it's nuts man and they're bringingthe big hitters back. Ryan Reynolds in
the Fold. Robert Donnie Junior isback in the Fold. So interesting future
ahead from you Jack University until he'sa ninety interesting futurehead for worst case scenario,
because we'll be back, same time, same place next week. Thank
you for spending a little bit ofyour Sunday with us, on and off.

(01:36:00):
For Haley Darling, Brett Blakemore andRobbie Rosenhous. This is Max Fuller.
We'll catch you out next week.Stay safe, peace,
