we had Jay.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Maybe he's doing some ass modeling games on It could
be he could be taking a last couple of pictures,
depending on the pose. I mean, you accidentally bumped the
wrong button on your phone. He got a couple more
pictures to take. Take that one there, Take that one
one more. This is my good glue. I have a
better glute side than the other. This is my good
glute side. This is my bad glute side. Right here,
(01:43):
I host a saying there was a famous King of
the Hill episode where Hanks having a lot of problems
and it's all because he has a diminished glute.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Very good.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Yeah, Jay, we thought that maybe we were finishing up
an ass modeling session and that that's why we took
a couple of seconds to get you.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Is that still on my on my Instagram page?
Speaker 3 (02:02):
I wait, you know, dudes in the private media section?
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Is it still in there?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
I don't, I don't know. I just I just thought
you were still doing it.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Well, you know, I you know, I've kind of closed
down my only fans account for that. Yeah, I said,
Rosie didn't like it. We got a big fight like
Goo that basketball player and his wife and all that stuff,
so we didn't want to get into it.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
I would want to see you be on Only Fans,
just for you to break a story and have someone
to say Jake Glazer on his only.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Story as I broke it in the news, I have
no idea, no idea, I'll never forget. I don't even
know how to say this story on race there. I
don't I possibly say this, but well, I had broken
the story about the play Kate when the Patriots were
(02:56):
flying in to Arizona for their Bowl against the Seahawks,
and I had broken the story that a the NFL
actually has video of the uh like the locker room
attendants they're picking the balls and going to the bathsroom
and all that stuff. And everybody accused me after that.
(03:17):
These Patriots fans are going crazy, like you intentionally waited
to know that the Patriots were on a flight. And
the truth was, how do I say this from the air,
There couldn't have been a worse time for me to
ever break a story, and yeah, it was an only
fans type of bubble Jordan, and I couldn't And I
(03:39):
actually said to the young lady I was with, I
got I got, I gotta break the store up the
playgate right now. She's like, uh, why you hear about
the flaygate shios. No, but the word you're using.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Right the house is not happen to you, brilliant.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Did I get a light wag? Is okay?
Speaker 3 (03:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
And I remember getting torched by it by the New
England media and and I actually she had ten a
picture while I was on the air breaking the story,
show this to certain members of the New England media, saying,
so it's like, look like something I would like. It's
(04:19):
perfect time for me to step away from the go
break the story. So that's my only fan type story.
Therefore you breaking story.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
It's a different way of thinking about baseball something.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
And uh yeah, probably wasn't the smartest story to me
have a repeat, But I don't have much of a
filter itself.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Hey that's a holiday story. Everybody can get some stories.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
They can't wait. You gotta go that they gotta go.
And I just got my What happened was I just
got my third you know, I was getting presorts to
some things or I just got man. The third story
came over most possible time ever, and I was like,
I gotta, I gotta go do this.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
You right now, boy ja?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I know, man, I mean all the stories you have
told us over the better part of the last seven
eight years.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
I don't know that that's there's a better one than that.
I think that's why I can write a book off
the money.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
I just can't. I just there's no way for me
to tell those without getting us all.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Fine, So, okay, that's gonna be your last book, the
last book, Jay Laser writes, you know, the the Andrea
Accuracy Open where I'm just going to torch everything.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
That's that's your last book that you're gonna write.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
You know what times people talking to give me to
write a book, like like what I really know about
the NFL, I'm like, cause of your mind, I'm not
looking at.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
He told those stories behind the scenes at Ballers and
then they had to be cut from air.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Oh my gosh, Ballers. That's I'm like gray to compare.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
What really happened.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
How nervous so many people were for the Britney book. Hey,
the Jake Glazer Book's coming out. Man, I don't know,
I don't know how I'm gonna be for trading that.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
People knew Jay Lazer's coming out with Jake the book
What really happened in his league? Jay Glazer wouldn't really
be alive much longer.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Jay Glazer was disappeared. Which owner was.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Yeah, pretty good.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
Oh, the one and only Jay Glazer with us here
on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
All right, Jake, we watched the Cowboy look one of
the best games of the year. Tonight, watch the Cowboys
beat the Seahawks. Dak Prescott is on a heater of
biblical proportions the last six weeks.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Is he the MVP right now? Because I think it
the MVP is his to lose right now?
Speaker 5 (06:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I like, there's a team with one loss and a
guy and a quarterback who's playing hurt and no. No.
I look, And here's the problem. When you say this,
people go, oh, you're hating on Dak.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
He don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I'm not hating on Dak. I've always said Dak is
a gangster. Like any Dak tore thing to play that
position and have that kind of success to beat the
quarterback of the Cowboys, there's nothing like it. It's like
the quarterback of the Cowboys like the centerfield, look for
the astis the center for the Lakers, stop for the
Red Sox, all wrapped up and won. Like it's incredible
(07:04):
the amount of tension that you get and and you know,
guys like hate man of guys like like that's just
done it better than you know, and most at that position,
Robert we stole back and even for Romo to you know,
to have the success he's had with how much is
put on you in that position. But what Jaylen Hurts
(07:25):
has done. They got one loss, so you know, I
think it's hard for me to go against anybody with
one loss. And also like Dallas is you know, look
I will say, would I say Dak is like most
improved from a year ago? Yeah? Absolutely, And I think
and you know, Mike McCarthy never talks about himself ever,
(07:47):
but Mike McCarthy and even Brian Schottenheimer over there too
have done a lot with Dak's mechanics. And I got
to give Jax so much credit. And this is where
Jalen Hurt comes into play too. But Jalen Hurt is
so coachable when you try and coach him about things,
he doesn't act like he knows at all. He doesn't
push back. He's wants to learn, just takes it in
(08:08):
back in the same way. So here come McCarthy and
and then Brian shottenheimers like, hey, we're gonna start working
on your footwork. We're gonna start work on the mechanics.
You know, have to tell it more. Left. They started
working on kind of basic things with him, and he
is it's exploded. But you got to think about that.
I think how strong it is for a guy like Dak.
They say nah, like yes, okay, I need this, instead
(08:29):
of now I'm good, I'm good. A lot of guys
would act like now i'm good, I'm good. But for
a guy like Dak, Trescott said, yeah, I want to
be coached, I want to learn more. I'd like to
get better mechanics. I'd like to even if it's a
basic mechanics too, you got a better way for me
to redo them whatever. You know, they've really done the
mazing jobs. And it's such a testament to Dak and
a testament to Jalen for those doucs who are grease, Yes,
(08:52):
we want to get coached up, we want to learn
and trust me. Man, there's that's not a recorded every
quarterback is willing he coached by the quarterback coach or
head coach, their offensive coordinator. You know, a lot of
guys come in this league singing, Hey what I did
in college, and I already proved it. I'm talented enough.
That's just not how it is in this league. So
(09:13):
both those guys are just done amazing jobs. But I
you know, you know again, this is not a knock
on Deck, but well, the other cat got one loss.
That's kindab the only thing I'm going off.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
We're gonna get to see him settled on the fields.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
The records real the other way around, go with Deck.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Sure, and Hurts has been, as you said, playing hurt.
We don't know how bad that knee is hurt.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Hurt, right, So yeah, he's been shut out.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Well we'll get another battle between them on the field.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Jay Glazer, our guest NFL on Fox Broadcasting, Hall of Famer,
The Unbreakable Performance Center, his book Find it on Amazon.
Go into nice stocky stuff for uh to give to
a friend's family.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Uh, if you know someone going through it, please, you know.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
In the Hot Angels, holiday is a hard time for people.
Holiday is a very hard time. And this when we
really need to start learn how to open up and
talk to our people who you know normally, especially dudes,
you don't know how to if you get them. Break
up with my book Unbreakable How I turned my depression,
anxiety and the motivation, and you can too. You will
really excuse just give your words as dudes and even women.
(10:18):
A lot of women have taken it and show their
men saying this is how I feel. I need to
understand this, but just give you words. We could start
having this conversation more because his holiday times really tough
for a lot of people. I would love to be
able to help out as many people as I can.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
We always appreciate the tales. We'll talk about the podcast
in a minute.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Jay.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Something you talked about a couple of weeks ago NFL
on Fox. Uh, the tenuous hold on his job for
Frank Reich. He's been relieved of his duty. Now it's
the David Tepper experience. Goes to the next iteration. All right,
everybody wants to be a head coach in the National
Football League?
Speaker 3 (10:54):
What what? What is the right type of guy to
go work for? Tepper?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
They here's the problem, He's gonna mess it up again
and he's gonna go I needn't got to work with
my young quarterback. No, man, hedn't got a changeer to
like set a culture in there. That's what you need.
You need somebody to set a culture in your place.
You look at places like Pittsburgh's culture. Mike Tomlin, even
when his offensive coordinators terrible, he got a fire him
(11:19):
still winning. Right, He's never had a losing season. John Harbaugh,
they constantly win. Kyle Shanahan sets his culture. Almacks even
when they have a losing season, like many as a
certain culture, right, they got Andy Reed always has a culture.
Nick Surriani says he came in there, he built a culture.
You gotta build a culture. But I'm sure he's gonna go. Oh,
we didn't offers the coach. They already looked at Ben
(11:40):
Johnson last year. And Ben Johnson didn't want the job
last year. And that's really the guy right now, his
offensive coaches out there. What he needs is a culture guy.
But the problem is, listen, I talked to David Tepper
about this. I have to shoot bowls pass here. Rosie
was sitting there with me. I said, a separate and
I have to talk with a lot owners. I said, listen,
would you trust best coaches in this league? The Bill
(12:03):
Belichicks and Mike Collins and the John Harballs and the
Andy Reives and the Sean McVay. Would you trust them
to run your business? Oh no, absolutely out. Jay's so
totally different. I told to them, why do you think
you could make a second round pick? Why do you
think you can jump in a personnel? Fully different. Also,
and the owners who don't do that, they succeed, Like
(12:24):
mister Rooney doesn't jump in there, and Fitzburg right, he
just never does it. The owner in Baltimore is the stud.
He never jumps in there and tells them what to do,
like stay out the way. And the owners who jump
in there and constantly try and make like draft picks,
that's when you get in trouble. And David Tepper he
(12:46):
needs to let his football people just do their football stuff.
But it's hard to do that when you got an
owner that medals and he's a meddler. Jay.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
When it comes to Aaron Rodgers, we'll end on this
one before you get to the podcast.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
He says, anything is possible.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
We thought his return was going to be sometime at
the end of December, he's going to go to practice
and practice full and all right, by god.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
I just want to go back by Tepper storing real quick.
Oh yeah, good at least if I'm gonna say him
and say it all. So Rosie standing there with me,
and I'm saying, I said, all that's miss Stepper, And
I said, so, you know, why do you think you
can make a second round pick? And he starts saying, oh,
so I should just let my coaches hire whoever they
want to hire. I said, I'm not talking about that.
I'm talking about well, I'm talking about you making personnel decisions,
(13:30):
like let your football people work three sixty five, make
your personal decisions. And he's like, oh so I just
let my coaches just bring in whoever they want. And
he's talking about Matt Wohl and his coaching staff and
I'm like, hey, dude, no one thinks about this, and
then like he keeps saying the same thing, and I
started getting a little, you know, irritated, and Rosie finally
was like, hey, I don't know if it's really going
(13:50):
on right now, but Taylor's let's talk away, and Tail
it was really nice to me, and I'm like, oh
my God, I'm like literally saying like I'm not talking,
I'm Matt Will with the coaching stept. But that's the
problem is that man like guys like this who yes,
and you are so successful one area of business doesn't
mean they're gonna be great another area. It just doesn't.
(14:12):
It doesn't work like that. And like we've seen it
the Peter principles, just because God a great co ordinate
here does mean they're gonna be great. A hey, coaches,
just because you could run ahadgephone fund doesn't mean you
can make a first or second round pick or ditay Treesman,
that's not what you're doing full time. And I'm sure
he would looking and go, whoever is running my companies,
(14:32):
I want them working three sixty five, twenty four to
seven of you know, on something, and that's who's making that. Well,
if you jump in and make those selections, that's not
someone who's working twenty four to seven at it, right,
it's someone who's working part time in it. And that
doesn't it just doesn't make sense. But as an owner,
if they're looking to go, hey, am it's my team,
I want to get to buy the growtheres. Honestly, it
(14:53):
just doesn't work.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
All right, Jay, I know, hey special podcast this week,
Unbreakable Mental Health po cast near Deeter my heart. You
got a Syracuse guy on there with you kick guy
on there more he.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Was he was a kicker, Jo Listen. Yeah and uh yeah, Josh.
He's training with us an Unbreakable Performance centator for years.
But his stories are incredible. And you know what I
didn't know is that he crashed and burned early on.
I had no idea that he really crashed and burned
with everything and that to rebuild himself completely up. Uh
and then even million dollar listing when he he was
(15:28):
told that he got it or about it. He didn't
know about Hollywood. He's like called his mom like, oh,
I got got this TV show million dollars listening when
he showed up, he was one of seven hundred agents
the show. But he ended up getting it, and he
listened to me. He's been very authentic. He's been a
solid friend. But there's really a lot of lessons in
(15:49):
there to learn for all entrepreneurs but also people like man,
it really a secret of successive when when you get
knocked out, because you will, when you get rejected, because
you will. I got rejected for eleven years before I
finally got my first freaking full time job when that happened,
How are you going to respond? How many times are
(16:11):
you going to respond? And he was just it was
a great podcast from a guy to not become a
tycoon in real estate and on television.

doing a game has become kind of its own cottage industry. Sure,
and you and I don't get to really see it
on Thursday Nights because we we do the show, but
we can get.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
To watch games after, watch a.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Highway, get clips during the course of a night and
look and look. The main thing to know about before
we get into what Kirk Herbstreet said, because that's the
big that's the big thing is is that. Look, I
think if you because listening to Al Michael some of
his calls, if you said, Al, here's your call from
a touchdown from a game earlier this year, here's your
call from a touchdown in twenty ten, here's your call
(22:57):
from a touchdown in two thousand, You're gonna under stand
that the ones earlier in your career, when you're younger
and have more energy and you do it, okay, they're
gonna sound better.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Right. It's that's just the way it's going to be.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
So that that's kind of what I don't look at
it as a case oh Alm, but that's kind of
that's kind of what it's been. Now for all the
criticism that al Michaels is gonna get, now it's time
to keep a whole bunch on Kirkurbstreet, all right, not
because of what he's done during a game, but he
did an interview in which he was asked about the
criticism of al Michaels. Now they've been partners together now
(23:31):
for a couple of years, and it's they worn't okay
together it still seems a little awkward, but you know,
they've been doing things all right. And Kirk Kurbsee was
asked about the games and al Michael's performance and a
couple of things that Herb Street said. I think al
when he would do Sunday night football or Monday night football,
those games were massive. You know, you're doing big games,
(23:52):
and your voice projects based on the setting that you're in.
So this is Kirk Kurbstreet saying, Hey, in a good atmosphere,
a good game, you're excited these Thursday night games, they're good.
They're good atmospheres, but I don't think they're.
Speaker 4 (24:06):
At the level of a Sunday night game or when
I'm doing Saturday night games. So I think your voice
always matches what you're doing, right. So here's here's Kirk
Kurbstreet saying, Hey, you know some of the games I
do Saturday night, Anders was there, So I'm very excited
about it.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
I'm kind of a big deal.
Speaker 4 (24:21):
Look at me on my Saturday night college football games.
That's really what that was. Now here's the he was
a flex. Here's the money quote from from Herb Street.
I've noticed that al Michaels is very much like me.
When the game warrants excitement, he brings excitement. All Right,
I'm gonna say this, the games are exciting. They may
not be as exciting.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
As Cowboys Washington or Steelers forty nine ers. They may
not be a Sunday night game, may not be a
Monday night game, but you know what, these Thursday night
football games, they're exciting to a lot of people. They
mean a lot to the fan bases that are watching.
They mean a lot to the fans who take time
out to watch a game. They don't want to watch
a game where you, well, I don't think I'm not
(25:03):
as interested, So why can't give you a great call?
Speaker 3 (25:06):
You know what?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Just like it's every player's job to play the best
he can in every game. I don't think Dak Prescott's
walking away going well, you got a great performance for
me tonight because we were playing the Seahawks.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
It was a great game, a lot of energy. But
we were playing the Cardinals. Yeah, Cardinals, they kind of stink.
We didn't really practice that hard. I just couldn't get
excited about playing in a game. Can you imagine a
player saying that? But this is Kirk Kurvestreet saying hey,
when the game, when the game is important enough, when
the game, then I get excited. Dude, if you can't
get excited to do a game, then quit and let
somebody else do it. There's many other people that would
(25:37):
do everything they could prepare how much they want to,
that would want to give you an a list broadcast.
Because your job is to give us the best broadcast
you can. Not to be excited when the moment calls
for it, or I'm sorry, I'm not excited because it's
DAGs Titans. You know what, There's a lot of people
out there that would give you a great call on
Jags Titans.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
They would be excited to do the game, and.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
It wouldn't be just oh, hey, look at what it is,
because you know what it sounds like, he sounds like,
and how my when he says it sounds like, byes,
you've been doing this too long. You've been doing it
too long, so stop doing it because obviously you don't
have the level of excitement and involvement and investment in
the game that you did when you were younger or
when it wasn't so brand new to you. Right, everybody
gets to a point where I've been doing this for
(26:16):
so long, and now you know, yeah, I'm out here.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
I'm traveling, I'm going to the game. I'm giving you
I'm giving you a solid broadcast. Now give us the
best broadcast you can.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
There's nights on the show here when we come in
sometimes we have unbelievable topics that just fall in our laps,
whether it's Aaron Rodgers coming back, or the Jets winning
or whatever it is, or the Jets sucking wine. Well
once in a while, you know. And there's other nights
where it's hey, there's big things going on, but from
a game reaction. But we still do the same show,
and we still bring you exciting things to talk about,
(26:46):
stuff that we're excited to talk about, because that's our
bleeping job. You don't want to listen to us on
the radio if we're just saying, hey, you know, the
excitement level of the stories doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
No, we love.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Coming on here every night and doing a show and
doing it the best as we can. And the stories
that we talk about are exciting. Some stories we don't
talk about are because well you know what, Eh, that
doesn't really float it for us. So we're gonna do
something that excites us to make sure that we give
you four hours of exciting things. Things were opinionated on.
Things you want to have fun with. Whether it's you
(27:16):
getting all your money stolen from Mark Cuban, that's your job.
And here's Kirk Curvetreet saying, hey, when the game warrants
excitement out were the same way he brings excitement. If
you can't be excited, don't do it anymore. Let somebody
else come do it, because you're doing a disservice to
what you do for a living, to the games that
are on, to the fans that are watching, because everybody
watching gives a crap about this game. Nobody watches a
(27:38):
game and goes, you know what, this game just so
totally sucks and I'm rooting for bad things happening. Everybody
wants excitement, they're excited to watch the game. But no, no, no,
you can't be bothered because ah it's Jags Titans, or
it's not a game that's exciting. Yeah no, then quit
quit and don't do the games. That's what you should be.
If this is how you really feel, then quit, don't
do it. I know you like catching the check, no,
you like being a big star, but you know doing
(28:00):
what you should be doing, and you're shorting your industry.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Well, he's a big deal on Saturday nights. Didn't you
hear that part of it? Do that?
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Then?
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Just do that? So just do that.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
The thing that it comes to, and maybe this is
my personal philosophy on this, is that we are and
they are and broadcasters are. We're selling, right, We're selling
a little bit of ourselves, right, our personalities. What we bring,
you know, family stories, little anecdotes, the stuff that gets
(28:28):
us excited, TV movies, music, whatever else is a bit
of ourselves that go in and obviously, yes, the analysis
and thought to it all. But you're selling, you know,
whether we're gonna do a bit for progressive or whoever else,
there's an audience for al Michaels and for Kirk kurb Street.
Guess what your job is to sell product, not to
(28:48):
just go eh, I don't know, there's a third and seven.
It's complete Good for him, Good for him, Hey you
like that? No, your job to sell the game, whether
it's you would bad ugly. There should be an excitement
for the three offs, because that's what you're brought there
to do, right. Nobody's there for the cutaway to you
guys in the booth nodding at each other and smiling.
(29:11):
The idea is that you're going to be additive to
the product on the field. And if you're not excited
about it in some way, shape or form, I might
as well turn on music and have the Barking Dogs
Holiday Holiday Holiday Going, or the Chewbacca song or Belichick
or whatever the hell else you're gonna put on, because
you're you're doing me a disservice. Now, you're taking away
(29:33):
from my game experience. Why am I jacked up? If
these two guys that are cashing six figure checks each
week to cover this game, they don't give a damn Right,
you're part of the product. You're part of the NFL. Yes,
you happen to be going through the vessel that is
Amazon Prime. But your job is to sell the league.
That's what you are there for. Right, You're not in
(29:56):
death of a salesman, You're not. You know, it always
be losing, you know, it's like, you know, we're not
going into some some high drama, like have some fun.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
It's football. They're not always gonna be great games. Tonight.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
I'm sure they were laughing their asses off and having
the grand old time. There's no punts, there's seventy plus points.
Oh my god, the over under was crushed, you know
as we got early.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
Into the second half. That's great. Like his comments from
that interview, when I.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Read those earlier today, all I had to do is
shake my Head's like, you know what, just just give
the checks away then then don't Then don't do it.
Go back to your your your high powered Saturday night thing,
you know, be the Graham Poobah of college football where
everybody goes and kisses your ass and asks your opinion
on the rankings and everything else. And just leave the
(30:47):
pros behind. If this isn't enough juice for you, and
if for al Michaels he's mad because he's no longer
our Sunday Sunday night or Monday night life goes on, man,
all right, go go find something else. Go back to
watching the Kings games. You could be the next buck
dropper after Seth throw what's next?
Speaker 3 (31:06):
You guys gonna crush them from never eating a vegetable
in his life, Yes, I don't care. Maybe if you
had vegetables things I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Well, I mean, you know, you eat the right vegetables.
It's gonna help you your digestive, right. I mean, when
we're talking about the meditarian diet that he espouses, I mean,
you need some ruffige in there.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Otherwise you got some problems. Buddy.
Speaker 7 (31:29):
I bet you has parasites we've never seen before, Jason.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
Parasites, unseen parasites. They're gonna devour us, all not undiscovered,
is what he's saying. Speaking of vegetables.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
I mean, who also has never had a vegetable before,
at least none that I've seen.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
See you to say, not true? Who's got what's trending
this week?
Speaker 8 (31:52):
As a matter of fact, I love the death of
a salesman.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
I had one this week. I had a vegetable this week.
Speaker 8 (31:57):
As far as you know, because there's the quote. I
am not a leader of men, Willie, and neither are you.
I'm a dollar an hour al Michaels is slightly more
than a dollar an hour, more like a million dollars
a week with this Amazon contract. So yeah, I couldn't
agree more. If you can't get up for that, quit,
you're doing us a disservice. He's finally these last couple
(32:19):
of weeks gotten close to the previous Al Michaels. Tonight's
game may have helped, but it shouldn't matter what the
game is, and stop complaining about the matchups.
Speaker 3 (32:29):

And none of us were not fun.
Speaker 8 (34:05):
I no, no, I know when you get to a
certain age, you imagine yourself having a set amount of
power that doesn't exist.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
No, no, no, I can replace all of you with artificial intelligence,
and no one would even know.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
Have no idea. I think they would know.

a robot in the room pressing buttons for tysher are
you kidding?
Speaker 8 (34:21):
And and Nicks would be twenty and oh right now

Speaker 3 (34:28):

Yeah I might.
Speaker 4 (34:31):
Hey, yeah, but that's happened before to dire consequences and
folks still have their jobs.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
Fresh.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
Thank you very much. I'm here all night. I'm a rich.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
History Jason Smith Show with Mike Carbon Live from the
tireg dot com studios.
Speaker 3 (34:49):
So not been the best week for Sports Illustrated. That's
a rough one.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
We had the story earlier this week that they have
AI writers who are writing stories for the for the website.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
But people happy like it was just about the outdoors. Jason, Look,
I have a real question coming off to SI stuff. Okay,
you sure it's a real question. Are Fabiano's rankings they are?
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Oh you know what, I will definitely tweet at him
with that. I mean, I think this is AI Fabiano
and rankings. Oh yeah, Yeah, you had a better week
last week?
Speaker 3 (35:25):
Was that you?
Speaker 4 (35:27):
So not a great week for Sports Illustrated And now
it continues because they're getting all kinds of heat because
they have made Deon Sanders the sports person of the Year.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Dion Sanders, who owns September, but Colorado finished four and
eight coaches are leaving, players are leading, players are de committing.
Speaker 4 (35:49):
Yeah, he demoted a coach and then he took a
job as the headman for San Diego Estate.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
So Dion sports Person of the Year.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
What Yeah, the coach that probably was instrumental to that
early success that I tried to stump for every chance
I got.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
To talk about Tim Lewis and the game he called
on offense.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
Apparently Tim Lewis wasn't a key because he got demoted,
but now he's a head coach.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
It was actually Richard Lewis. This is Richard Lewis.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
Well, that's not bad, and it's Sean Lewis.
Speaker 3 (36:21):
Richard Lewis is from anything but Love. Yes, wow, Okay,
that's that's I was gonna go Kurt but yeah, yeah,
Jamie Lee Kurtis, Sure, well that's true.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
But this is this is why it's it's such a
bad week because you know, I talk about sports Stonehenge
and programs and teams that meant so much a long
time ago, and now no one really understands why they
were relevant, like Indiana basketball, Nebraska football. It's been so long.
These teams are relevant. Sports Illustrated now has gotten that
(36:54):
point because you have ai writers and now you have
something that's just done because you can get clicks on it,
not because you really think Deon Sanders is a sports
Person of the Year, because you know it's it's controversial
and people are going to talk about it. And that's
where Sports Illustrated is the bastion of journalism. For over
sixty seventy years in the United States, what Sports Illustrated
(37:15):
with the level of respect it has and now we
are reduced to we have AI writers and we need
hot takes to get closed.
Speaker 4 (37:21):
Now I've not been able to read the article, you know,
summarizing this and discussing it from a friend of the show,
Pat forty.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
But I'd be curious, right the logic as you flow.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
Through and who are the finalists that were up for discussion, right,
because there's everybody's got their angle of it.
Speaker 3 (37:40):
They want to go for the sports here though, Was.
Speaker 4 (37:43):
There anything bigger in the United States than Dion Sanders
and what that program did for a month, like the
way that resonated in September.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
Yeah, but they thought fell off a cliff right away
once they lost two games.
Speaker 4 (37:57):
A lot of the other stuff is a moment, right,
it's a college football goes though you're done. It's a
month if he was sports Person of September. I would say,
Deon Sanders is a sports you know. The beauty of
it is most of it's digitized. Now we can create
a new magazine cover and name a new sports Person
of the Year tomorrow. Nothing ended well for him, The
season did end well for him. Player, no players would
(38:21):
leaving you, Oh, we're not an ATM. It's it's no,
it's in a bad place. This to what could have
been the Game of the Year in the NFL on

Speaker 3 (01:11):
It is Jay Glazer? Jay, what's happening, Bud? We got Jack? Oh,
we had Jay.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
Maybe he's doing some ass modeling games on It could
be he could be taking a last couple of pictures,
depending on the pose. I mean, you accidentally bumped the
wrong button on your phone. He got a couple more
pictures to take. Take that one there, Take that one
one more. This is my good glue. I have a
better glute side than the other. This is my good
glute side. This is my bad glute side. Right here,
(01:43):
I host a saying there was a famous King of
the Hill episode where Hanks having a lot of problems
and it's all because he has a diminished glute.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Very good.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Yeah, Jay, we thought that maybe we were finishing up
an ass modeling session and that that's why we took
a couple of seconds to get you.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Is that still on my on my Instagram page?
Speaker 3 (02:02):
I wait, you know, dudes in the private media section?
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Is it still in there?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
I don't, I don't know. I just I just thought
you were still doing it.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Well, you know, I you know, I've kind of closed
down my only fans account for that. Yeah, I said,
Rosie didn't like it. We got a big fight like
Goo that basketball player and his wife and all that stuff,
so we didn't want to get into it.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
I would want to see you be on Only Fans,
just for you to break a story and have someone
to say Jake Glazer on his only.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Story as I broke it in the news, I have
no idea, no idea, I'll never forget. I don't even
know how to say this story on race there. I
don't I possibly say this, but well, I had broken
the story about the play Kate when the Patriots were
(02:56):
flying in to Arizona for their Bowl against the Seahawks,
and I had broken the story that a the NFL
actually has video of the uh like the locker room
attendants they're picking the balls and going to the bathsroom
and all that stuff. And everybody accused me after that.
(03:17):
These Patriots fans are going crazy, like you intentionally waited
to know that the Patriots were on a flight. And
the truth was, how do I say this from the air,
There couldn't have been a worse time for me to
ever break a story, and yeah, it was an only
fans type of bubble Jordan, and I couldn't And I
(03:39):
actually said to the young lady I was with, I
got I got, I gotta break the store up the
playgate right now. She's like, uh, why you hear about
the flaygate shios. No, but the word you're using.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Right the house is not happen to you, brilliant.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Did I get a light wag? Is okay?
Speaker 3 (03:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
And I remember getting torched by it by the New
England media and and I actually she had ten a
picture while I was on the air breaking the story,
show this to certain members of the New England media, saying,
so it's like, look like something I would like. It's
(04:19):
perfect time for me to step away from the go
break the story. So that's my only fan type story.
Therefore you breaking story.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
It's a different way of thinking about baseball something.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
And uh yeah, probably wasn't the smartest story to me
have a repeat, But I don't have much of a
filter itself.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
Hey that's a holiday story. Everybody can get some stories.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
They can't wait. You gotta go that they gotta go.
And I just got my What happened was I just
got my third you know, I was getting presorts to
some things or I just got man. The third story
came over most possible time ever, and I was like,
I gotta, I gotta go do this.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
You right now, boy ja?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I know, man, I mean all the stories you have
told us over the better part of the last seven
eight years.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
I don't know that that's there's a better one than that.
I think that's why I can write a book off
the money.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
I just can't. I just there's no way for me
to tell those without getting us all.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Fine, So, okay, that's gonna be your last book, the
last book, Jay Laser writes, you know, the the Andrea
Accuracy Open where I'm just going to torch everything.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
That's that's your last book that you're gonna write.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
You know what times people talking to give me to
write a book, like like what I really know about
the NFL, I'm like, cause of your mind, I'm not
looking at.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
He told those stories behind the scenes at Ballers and
then they had to be cut from air.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Oh my gosh, Ballers. That's I'm like gray to compare.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
What really happened.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
How nervous so many people were for the Britney book. Hey,
the Jake Glazer Book's coming out. Man, I don't know,
I don't know how I'm gonna be for trading that.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
People knew Jay Lazer's coming out with Jake the book
What really happened in his league? Jay Glazer wouldn't really
be alive much longer.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Jay Glazer was disappeared. Which owner was.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Yeah, pretty good.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
Oh, the one and only Jay Glazer with us here
on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
All right, Jake, we watched the Cowboy look one of
the best games of the year. Tonight, watch the Cowboys
beat the Seahawks. Dak Prescott is on a heater of
biblical proportions the last six weeks.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Is he the MVP right now? Because I think it
the MVP is his to lose right now?
Speaker 5 (06:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I like, there's a team with one loss and a
guy and a quarterback who's playing hurt and no. No.
I look, And here's the problem. When you say this,
people go, oh, you're hating on Dak.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
He don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I'm not hating on Dak. I've always said Dak is
a gangster. Like any Dak tore thing to play that
position and have that kind of success to beat the
quarterback of the Cowboys, there's nothing like it. It's like
the quarterback of the Cowboys like the centerfield, look for
the astis the center for the Lakers, stop for the
Red Sox, all wrapped up and won. Like it's incredible
(07:04):
the amount of tension that you get and and you know,
guys like hate man of guys like like that's just
done it better than you know, and most at that position,
Robert we stole back and even for Romo to you know,
to have the success he's had with how much is
put on you in that position. But what Jaylen Hurts
(07:25):
has done. They got one loss, so you know, I
think it's hard for me to go against anybody with
one loss. And also like Dallas is you know, look
I will say, would I say Dak is like most
improved from a year ago? Yeah? Absolutely, And I think
and you know, Mike McCarthy never talks about himself ever,
(07:47):
but Mike McCarthy and even Brian Schottenheimer over there too
have done a lot with Dak's mechanics. And I got
to give Jax so much credit. And this is where
Jalen Hurt comes into play too. But Jalen Hurt is
so coachable when you try and coach him about things,
he doesn't act like he knows at all. He doesn't
push back. He's wants to learn, just takes it in
(08:08):
back in the same way. So here come McCarthy and
and then Brian shottenheimers like, hey, we're gonna start working
on your footwork. We're gonna start work on the mechanics.
You know, have to tell it more. Left. They started
working on kind of basic things with him, and he
is it's exploded. But you got to think about that.
I think how strong it is for a guy like Dak.
They say nah, like yes, okay, I need this, instead
(08:29):
of now I'm good, I'm good. A lot of guys
would act like now i'm good, I'm good. But for
a guy like Dak, Trescott said, yeah, I want to
be coached, I want to learn more. I'd like to
get better mechanics. I'd like to even if it's a
basic mechanics too, you got a better way for me
to redo them whatever. You know, they've really done the
mazing jobs. And it's such a testament to Dak and
a testament to Jalen for those doucs who are grease, Yes,
(08:52):
we want to get coached up, we want to learn
and trust me. Man, there's that's not a recorded every
quarterback is willing he coached by the quarterback coach or
head coach, their offensive coordinator. You know, a lot of
guys come in this league singing, Hey what I did
in college, and I already proved it. I'm talented enough.
That's just not how it is in this league. So
(09:13):
both those guys are just done amazing jobs. But I
you know, you know again, this is not a knock
on Deck, but well, the other cat got one loss.
That's kindab the only thing I'm going off.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
We're gonna get to see him settled on the fields.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
The records real the other way around, go with Deck.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Sure, and Hurts has been, as you said, playing hurt.
We don't know how bad that knee is hurt.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Hurt, right, So yeah, he's been shut out.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Well we'll get another battle between them on the field.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Jay Glazer, our guest NFL on Fox Broadcasting, Hall of Famer,
The Unbreakable Performance Center, his book Find it on Amazon.
Go into nice stocky stuff for uh to give to
a friend's family.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Uh, if you know someone going through it, please, you know.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
In the Hot Angels, holiday is a hard time for people.
Holiday is a very hard time. And this when we
really need to start learn how to open up and
talk to our people who you know normally, especially dudes,
you don't know how to if you get them. Break
up with my book Unbreakable How I turned my depression,
anxiety and the motivation, and you can too. You will
really excuse just give your words as dudes and even women.
(10:18):
A lot of women have taken it and show their
men saying this is how I feel. I need to
understand this, but just give you words. We could start
having this conversation more because his holiday times really tough
for a lot of people. I would love to be
able to help out as many people as I can.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
We always appreciate the tales. We'll talk about the podcast
in a minute.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Jay.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Something you talked about a couple of weeks ago NFL
on Fox. Uh, the tenuous hold on his job for
Frank Reich. He's been relieved of his duty. Now it's
the David Tepper experience. Goes to the next iteration. All right,
everybody wants to be a head coach in the National
Football League?
Speaker 3 (10:54):
What what? What is the right type of guy to
go work for? Tepper?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
They here's the problem, He's gonna mess it up again
and he's gonna go I needn't got to work with
my young quarterback. No, man, hedn't got a changeer to
like set a culture in there. That's what you need.
You need somebody to set a culture in your place.
You look at places like Pittsburgh's culture. Mike Tomlin, even
when his offensive coordinators terrible, he got a fire him
(11:19):
still winning. Right, He's never had a losing season. John Harbaugh,
they constantly win. Kyle Shanahan sets his culture. Almacks even
when they have a losing season, like many as a
certain culture, right, they got Andy Reed always has a culture.
Nick Surriani says he came in there, he built a culture.
You gotta build a culture. But I'm sure he's gonna go. Oh,
we didn't offers the coach. They already looked at Ben
(11:40):
Johnson last year. And Ben Johnson didn't want the job
last year. And that's really the guy right now, his
offensive coaches out there. What he needs is a culture guy.
But the problem is, listen, I talked to David Tepper
about this. I have to shoot bowls pass here. Rosie
was sitting there with me. I said, a separate and
I have to talk with a lot owners. I said, listen,
would you trust best coaches in this league? The Bill
(12:03):
Belichicks and Mike Collins and the John Harballs and the
Andy Reives and the Sean McVay. Would you trust them
to run your business? Oh no, absolutely out. Jay's so
totally different. I told to them, why do you think
you could make a second round pick? Why do you
think you can jump in a personnel? Fully different. Also,
and the owners who don't do that, they succeed, Like
(12:24):
mister Rooney doesn't jump in there, and Fitzburg right, he
just never does it. The owner in Baltimore is the stud.
He never jumps in there and tells them what to do,
like stay out the way. And the owners who jump
in there and constantly try and make like draft picks,
that's when you get in trouble. And David Tepper he
(12:46):
needs to let his football people just do their football stuff.
But it's hard to do that when you got an
owner that medals and he's a meddler. Jay.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
When it comes to Aaron Rodgers, we'll end on this
one before you get to the podcast.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
He says, anything is possible.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
We thought his return was going to be sometime at
the end of December, he's going to go to practice
and practice full and all right, by god.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
I just want to go back by Tepper storing real quick.
Oh yeah, good at least if I'm gonna say him
and say it all. So Rosie standing there with me,
and I'm saying, I said, all that's miss Stepper, And
I said, so, you know, why do you think you
can make a second round pick? And he starts saying, oh,
so I should just let my coaches hire whoever they
want to hire. I said, I'm not talking about that.
I'm talking about well, I'm talking about you making personnel decisions,
(13:30):
like let your football people work three sixty five, make
your personal decisions. And he's like, oh so I just
let my coaches just bring in whoever they want. And
he's talking about Matt Wohl and his coaching staff and
I'm like, hey, dude, no one thinks about this, and
then like he keeps saying the same thing, and I
started getting a little, you know, irritated, and Rosie finally
was like, hey, I don't know if it's really going
(13:50):
on right now, but Taylor's let's talk away, and Tail
it was really nice to me, and I'm like, oh
my God, I'm like literally saying like I'm not talking,
I'm Matt Will with the coaching stept. But that's the
problem is that man like guys like this who yes,
and you are so successful one area of business doesn't
mean they're gonna be great another area. It just doesn't.
(14:12):
It doesn't work like that. And like we've seen it
the Peter principles, just because God a great co ordinate
here does mean they're gonna be great. A hey, coaches,
just because you could run ahadgephone fund doesn't mean you
can make a first or second round pick or ditay Treesman,
that's not what you're doing full time. And I'm sure
he would looking and go, whoever is running my companies,
(14:32):
I want them working three sixty five, twenty four to
seven of you know, on something, and that's who's making that. Well,
if you jump in and make those selections, that's not
someone who's working twenty four to seven at it, right,
it's someone who's working part time in it. And that
doesn't it just doesn't make sense. But as an owner,
if they're looking to go, hey, am it's my team,
I want to get to buy the growtheres. Honestly, it
(14:53):
just doesn't work.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
All right, Jay, I know, hey special podcast this week,
Unbreakable Mental Health po cast near Deeter my heart. You
got a Syracuse guy on there with you kick guy
on there more he.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Was he was a kicker, Jo Listen. Yeah and uh yeah, Josh.
He's training with us an Unbreakable Performance centator for years.
But his stories are incredible. And you know what I
didn't know is that he crashed and burned early on.
I had no idea that he really crashed and burned
with everything and that to rebuild himself completely up. Uh
and then even million dollar listing when he he was
(15:28):
told that he got it or about it. He didn't
know about Hollywood. He's like called his mom like, oh,
I got got this TV show million dollars listening when
he showed up, he was one of seven hundred agents
the show. But he ended up getting it, and he
listened to me. He's been very authentic. He's been a
solid friend. But there's really a lot of lessons in
(15:49):
there to learn for all entrepreneurs but also people like man,
it really a secret of successive when when you get
knocked out, because you will, when you get rejected, because
you will. I got rejected for eleven years before I
finally got my first freaking full time job when that happened,
How are you going to respond? How many times are
(16:11):
you going to respond? And he was just it was
a great podcast from a guy to not become a
tycoon in real estate and on television.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
The Jason Smith Show with Mike Carmen, Live from the
tirec dot Com studios. So we watched the uh watch
the Cowboys win tonight. Thanks to Jay Glazer for stopping
by and I mean it. Check out the podcast So
Good after the show is over on iTunes wherever you
listen to podcasts. Jay Glazer told a story about breaking
the news unto Flate Gait that you absolutely have to hear.
(20:52):
You absolutely have to hear it. I mean it was
in a decade of story near decade.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
Yeah, that Jay's been coming on and he's been giving
us goal yes right, not just you know, hey, here's
here's what's coming, and here's the insider view on things,
which we get. And Jay's better than anybody at that
right because he doesn't go with it until he's triple sourced,
like if it's rock solid, there's no ambiguity about it.
But we also get the slice of life and all
(21:19):
the behind the scenes of how he does his job.
And this might be he might have bared his soul
and a little else more so than ever.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
I don't know that there's a better Jay Glazer story
than what we heard. Podcasts go up on iTunes, iHeartRadio app,
wherever you listen to podcasts, that's there. The Jason Smith
Show with Mike Harmon Again, it gets posted about ten
minutes a show after the show is over. Jay Lad's
in the beginning of the interview, you really want to
hear it how he broke the the flate Gate story
and it's absolute gold. The Jason Smith Show with Mike
(21:51):
Carmon Lifethtirec dot Com Studios. Meanwhile, another story, because well
to get away from.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
The game, but stay with the game for tonight.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
The never rending topic on Thursday Nights of the level
of excitement of al Michaels when it comes to announcing
Thursday Night for sure, Uh, he's not sounded as excited
as as he is.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Yeah, well look he was tonight. Tonight was a good game.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
And now that this gets into the into the story
that I want to get into, because the topic of
al Michaels and how he's into it, how well he's
doing a game has become kind of its own cottage industry. Sure,
and you and I don't get to really see it
on Thursday Nights because we we do the show, but
we can get.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
To watch games after, watch a.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Highway, get clips during the course of a night and
look and look. The main thing to know about before
we get into what Kirk Herbstreet said, because that's the
big that's the big thing is is that. Look, I
think if you because listening to Al Michael some of
his calls, if you said, Al, here's your call from
a touchdown from a game earlier this year, here's your
call from a touchdown in twenty ten, here's your call
(22:57):
from a touchdown in two thousand, You're gonna under stand
that the ones earlier in your career, when you're younger
and have more energy and you do it, okay, they're
gonna sound better.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Right. It's that's just the way it's going to be.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
So that that's kind of what I don't look at
it as a case oh Alm, but that's kind of
that's kind of what it's been. Now for all the
criticism that al Michaels is gonna get, now it's time
to keep a whole bunch on Kirkurbstreet, all right, not
because of what he's done during a game, but he
did an interview in which he was asked about the
criticism of al Michaels. Now they've been partners together now
(23:31):
for a couple of years, and it's they worn't okay
together it still seems a little awkward, but you know,
they've been doing things all right. And Kirk Kurbsee was
asked about the games and al Michael's performance and a
couple of things that Herb Street said. I think al
when he would do Sunday night football or Monday night football,
those games were massive. You know, you're doing big games,
(23:52):
and your voice projects based on the setting that you're in.
So this is Kirk Kurbstreet saying, Hey, in a good atmosphere,
a good game, you're excited these Thursday night games, they're good.
They're good atmospheres, but I don't think they're.
Speaker 4 (24:06):
At the level of a Sunday night game or when
I'm doing Saturday night games. So I think your voice
always matches what you're doing, right. So here's here's Kirk
Kurbstreet saying, Hey, you know some of the games I
do Saturday night, Anders was there, So I'm very excited
about it.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
I'm kind of a big deal.
Speaker 4 (24:21):
Look at me on my Saturday night college football games.
That's really what that was. Now here's the he was
a flex. Here's the money quote from from Herb Street.
I've noticed that al Michaels is very much like me.
When the game warrants excitement, he brings excitement. All Right,
I'm gonna say this, the games are exciting. They may
not be as exciting.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
As Cowboys Washington or Steelers forty nine ers. They may
not be a Sunday night game, may not be a
Monday night game, but you know what, these Thursday night
football games, they're exciting to a lot of people. They
mean a lot to the fan bases that are watching.
They mean a lot to the fans who take time
out to watch a game. They don't want to watch
a game where you, well, I don't think I'm not
(25:03):
as interested, So why can't give you a great call?
Speaker 3 (25:06):
You know what?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Just like it's every player's job to play the best
he can in every game. I don't think Dak Prescott's
walking away going well, you got a great performance for
me tonight because we were playing the Seahawks.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
It was a great game, a lot of energy. But
we were playing the Cardinals. Yeah, Cardinals, they kind of stink.
We didn't really practice that hard. I just couldn't get
excited about playing in a game. Can you imagine a
player saying that? But this is Kirk Kurvestreet saying hey,
when the game, when the game is important enough, when
the game, then I get excited. Dude, if you can't
get excited to do a game, then quit and let
somebody else do it. There's many other people that would
(25:37):
do everything they could prepare how much they want to,
that would want to give you an a list broadcast.
Because your job is to give us the best broadcast
you can. Not to be excited when the moment calls
for it, or I'm sorry, I'm not excited because it's
DAGs Titans. You know what, There's a lot of people
out there that would give you a great call on
Jags Titans.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
They would be excited to do the game, and.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
It wouldn't be just oh, hey, look at what it is,
because you know what it sounds like, he sounds like,
and how my when he says it sounds like, byes,
you've been doing this too long. You've been doing it
too long, so stop doing it because obviously you don't
have the level of excitement and involvement and investment in
the game that you did when you were younger or
when it wasn't so brand new to you. Right, everybody
gets to a point where I've been doing this for
(26:16):
so long, and now you know, yeah, I'm out here.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
I'm traveling, I'm going to the game. I'm giving you
I'm giving you a solid broadcast. Now give us the
best broadcast you can.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
There's nights on the show here when we come in
sometimes we have unbelievable topics that just fall in our laps,
whether it's Aaron Rodgers coming back, or the Jets winning
or whatever it is, or the Jets sucking wine. Well
once in a while, you know. And there's other nights
where it's hey, there's big things going on, but from
a game reaction. But we still do the same show,
and we still bring you exciting things to talk about,
(26:46):
stuff that we're excited to talk about, because that's our
bleeping job. You don't want to listen to us on
the radio if we're just saying, hey, you know, the
excitement level of the stories doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
No, we love.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Coming on here every night and doing a show and
doing it the best as we can. And the stories
that we talk about are exciting. Some stories we don't
talk about are because well you know what, Eh, that
doesn't really float it for us. So we're gonna do
something that excites us to make sure that we give
you four hours of exciting things. Things were opinionated on.
Things you want to have fun with. Whether it's you
(27:16):
getting all your money stolen from Mark Cuban, that's your job.
And here's Kirk Curvetreet saying, hey, when the game warrants
excitement out were the same way he brings excitement. If
you can't be excited, don't do it anymore. Let somebody
else come do it, because you're doing a disservice to
what you do for a living, to the games that
are on, to the fans that are watching, because everybody
watching gives a crap about this game. Nobody watches a
(27:38):
game and goes, you know what, this game just so
totally sucks and I'm rooting for bad things happening. Everybody
wants excitement, they're excited to watch the game. But no, no, no,
you can't be bothered because ah it's Jags Titans, or
it's not a game that's exciting. Yeah no, then quit
quit and don't do the games. That's what you should be.
If this is how you really feel, then quit, don't
do it. I know you like catching the check, no,
you like being a big star, but you know doing
(28:00):
what you should be doing, and you're shorting your industry.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
Well, he's a big deal on Saturday nights. Didn't you
hear that part of it? Do that?
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Then?
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Just do that? So just do that.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
The thing that it comes to, and maybe this is
my personal philosophy on this, is that we are and
they are and broadcasters are. We're selling, right, We're selling
a little bit of ourselves, right, our personalities. What we bring,
you know, family stories, little anecdotes, the stuff that gets
(28:28):
us excited, TV movies, music, whatever else is a bit
of ourselves that go in and obviously, yes, the analysis
and thought to it all. But you're selling, you know,
whether we're gonna do a bit for progressive or whoever else,
there's an audience for al Michaels and for Kirk kurb Street.
Guess what your job is to sell product, not to
(28:48):
just go eh, I don't know, there's a third and seven.
It's complete Good for him, Good for him, Hey you
like that? No, your job to sell the game, whether
it's you would bad ugly. There should be an excitement
for the three offs, because that's what you're brought there
to do, right. Nobody's there for the cutaway to you
guys in the booth nodding at each other and smiling.
(29:11):
The idea is that you're going to be additive to
the product on the field. And if you're not excited
about it in some way, shape or form, I might
as well turn on music and have the Barking Dogs
Holiday Holiday Holiday Going, or the Chewbacca song or Belichick
or whatever the hell else you're gonna put on, because
you're you're doing me a disservice. Now, you're taking away
(29:33):
from my game experience. Why am I jacked up? If
these two guys that are cashing six figure checks each
week to cover this game, they don't give a damn Right,
you're part of the product. You're part of the NFL. Yes,
you happen to be going through the vessel that is
Amazon Prime. But your job is to sell the league.
That's what you are there for. Right, You're not in
(29:56):
death of a salesman, You're not. You know, it always
be losing, you know, it's like, you know, we're not
going into some some high drama, like have some fun.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
It's football. They're not always gonna be great games. Tonight.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
I'm sure they were laughing their asses off and having
the grand old time. There's no punts, there's seventy plus points.
Oh my god, the over under was crushed, you know
as we got early.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
Into the second half. That's great. Like his comments from
that interview, when I.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
Read those earlier today, all I had to do is
shake my Head's like, you know what, just just give
the checks away then then don't Then don't do it.
Go back to your your your high powered Saturday night thing,
you know, be the Graham Poobah of college football where
everybody goes and kisses your ass and asks your opinion
on the rankings and everything else. And just leave the
(30:47):
pros behind. If this isn't enough juice for you, and
if for al Michaels he's mad because he's no longer
our Sunday Sunday night or Monday night life goes on, man,
all right, go go find something else. Go back to
watching the Kings games. You could be the next buck
dropper after Seth throw what's next?
Speaker 3 (31:06):
You guys gonna crush them from never eating a vegetable
in his life, Yes, I don't care. Maybe if you
had vegetables things I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Well, I mean, you know, you eat the right vegetables.
It's gonna help you your digestive, right. I mean, when
we're talking about the meditarian diet that he espouses, I mean,
you need some ruffige in there.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Otherwise you got some problems. Buddy.
Speaker 7 (31:29):
I bet you has parasites we've never seen before, Jason.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
Parasites, unseen parasites. They're gonna devour us, all not undiscovered,
is what he's saying. Speaking of vegetables.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
I mean, who also has never had a vegetable before,
at least none that I've seen.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
See you to say, not true? Who's got what's trending
this week?
Speaker 8 (31:52):
As a matter of fact, I love the death of
a salesman.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
I had one this week. I had a vegetable this week.
Speaker 8 (31:57):
As far as you know, because there's the quote. I
am not a leader of men, Willie, and neither are you.
I'm a dollar an hour al Michaels is slightly more
than a dollar an hour, more like a million dollars
a week with this Amazon contract. So yeah, I couldn't
agree more. If you can't get up for that, quit,
you're doing us a disservice. He's finally these last couple
(32:19):
of weeks gotten close to the previous Al Michaels. Tonight's
game may have helped, but it shouldn't matter what the
game is, and stop complaining about the matchups.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
You signed up for.

Speaker 8 (34:05):
I no, no, I know when you get to a
certain age, you imagine yourself having a set amount of
power that doesn't exist.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
No, no, no, I can replace all of you with artificial intelligence,
and no one would even know.
Speaker 3 (34:15):

Fresh.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
Thank you very much. I'm here all night. I'm a rich.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
History Jason Smith Show with Mike Carbon Live from the
tireg dot com studios.
Speaker 3 (34:49):
So not been the best week for Sports Illustrated. That's
a rough one.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
We had the story earlier this week that they have
AI writers who are writing stories for the for the website.
Speaker 3 (35:01):
But people happy like it was just about the outdoors. Jason, Look,
I have a real question coming off to SI stuff. Okay,
you sure it's a real question. Are Fabiano's rankings they are?
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Oh you know what, I will definitely tweet at him
with that. I mean, I think this is AI Fabiano
and rankings. Oh yeah, Yeah, you had a better week
last week?
Speaker 3 (35:25):
Was that you?
Speaker 4 (35:27):
So not a great week for Sports Illustrated And now
it continues because they're getting all kinds of heat because
they have made Deon Sanders the sports person of the Year.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Dion Sanders, who owns September, but Colorado finished four and
eight coaches are leaving, players are leading, players are de committing.
Speaker 4 (35:49):
Yeah, he demoted a coach and then he took a
job as the headman for San Diego Estate.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
So Dion sports Person of the Year.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
What Yeah, the coach that probably was instrumental to that
early success that I tried to stump for every chance
I got.
Speaker 3 (36:07):
To talk about Tim Lewis and the game he called
on offense.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
Apparently Tim Lewis wasn't a key because he got demoted,
but now he's a head coach.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
It was actually Richard Lewis. This is Richard Lewis.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
Well, that's not bad, and it's Sean Lewis.
Speaker 3 (36:21):
Richard Lewis is from anything but Love. Yes, wow, Okay,
that's that's I was gonna go Kurt but yeah, yeah,
Jamie Lee Kurtis, Sure, well that's true.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
But this is this is why it's it's such a
bad week because you know, I talk about sports Stonehenge
and programs and teams that meant so much a long
time ago, and now no one really understands why they
were relevant, like Indiana basketball, Nebraska football. It's been so long.
These teams are relevant. Sports Illustrated now has gotten that
(36:54):
point because you have ai writers and now you have
something that's just done because you can get clicks on it,
not because you really think Deon Sanders is a sports
Person of the Year, because you know it's it's controversial
and people are going to talk about it. And that's
where Sports Illustrated is the bastion of journalism. For over
sixty seventy years in the United States, what Sports Illustrated
(37:15):
with the level of respect it has and now we
are reduced to we have AI writers and we need
hot takes to get closed.
Speaker 4 (37:21):
Now I've not been able to read the article, you know,
summarizing this and discussing it from a friend of the show,
Pat forty.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
But I'd be curious, right the logic as you flow.
Speaker 4 (37:33):
Through and who are the finalists that were up for discussion, right,
because there's everybody's got their angle of it.
Speaker 3 (37:40):
They want to go for the sports here though, Was.
Speaker 4 (37:43):
There anything bigger in the United States than Dion Sanders
and what that program did for a month, like the
way that resonated in September.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
Yeah, but they thought fell off a cliff right away
once they lost two games.
Speaker 4 (37:57):
A lot of the other stuff is a moment, right,
it's a college football goes though you're done. It's a
month if he was sports Person of September. I would say,
Deon Sanders is a sports you know. The beauty of
it is most of it's digitized. Now we can create
a new magazine cover and name a new sports Person
of the Year tomorrow. Nothing ended well for him, The
season did end well for him. Player, no players would
(38:21):
leaving you, Oh, we're not an ATM. It's it's no,
it's in a bad place. This to what could have
been the Game of the Year in the NFL on
