Speaker 2 (00:23):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
On into the wind Up.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
In his first offering, Jos the bit outside was he
calling a Mets game?
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Stop?
Speaker 3 (00:44):
You know?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Can you let Kate? Can we play the Mister Belvedere
theme song for Bobby Kip? Can we play it for
Bob Buker? I'm surprised you didn't play the Pee Alonzo
home run in the middle of it. Welcome inside the
Jason Smith Show with Mike Harmon from the tire Rack
dot Com studios. And yeah, look, you know, sometimes you know,
(01:06):
shows are different, Sometimes shows begin weird. And I haven't
listened to Mister Belvidere theme song all day. After the
news of the passing of Bob Buker at the age
of ninety, there's you know, we say the word legend
and it gets a little bit over you sometimes, but
I mean there is you try to find somebody in
(01:27):
sports the last forty years bigger than Bob Uker, from
his playing days where he barely could hang on, into
his broadcasting days and to his commercial days and times
he hosted Coast of the Tonight Show. He's a guest
on that show over one hundred times. Then he started
on Mister Belvidere, and he was in millerte commercials, and
all of a sudden, Bob Buker goes from hey, here's
(01:48):
a backup catcher who has some fun stories to tell,
and he becomes an industry all of his own. And look,
we still play his major league drops. You know, the
movie was nineteen eighty nine, and here we are eleven
thirty five years later, and we're still okay, Francis Bob Buker,
(02:08):
and we're still like, we still run his lines, still
run the Harry Doyle lines all the time. That was
some kind of life Bob Buker.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Well, I mean, you don't often get a guy who
achieved so little at the major league level.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
He made he was a major leaguer, but generally those are,
you know, for guys that had long.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Careers became all stars became legends, and instead you had
a guy who told a lot of jokes.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I was listening to a bunch.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Of clips over the course of the day from great
comedians telling their stories.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Every one of them was profane.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
None of them had a simple Hey, you know, we
were hanging out with Bob and you know, something funny happened.
He's like, yeah, Bob started saying this, like whoa. Yeah,
so I think he feuded with almost every comedian that
you've come to know and love through the last forty
plus years as well. But the movies, we were running
Belvetere lines, and just the other day.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
We were just like, we were just talking about mister
Belvindere two days ago. I found it, like right, I
looked at it. I'd like, I said, where were people
responding on social media? I looked like, go, oh, yeah, yeah,
we we were just talking about mister Belvidere.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Like hes a.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
This guy goes from hey, okay, now I'm a I'm
a big spot a sports personality, and I'm doing interviews.
Now I'm starring in a sitcom. Whoa Okay, That's how
it goes.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
One hundred and seventeen episodes of a sitcom that wasn't
just a hey, you got a shot because you know,
you caught lightning in the bottle, because people were paying
attention to the Brewers like an eighty two right, the
Harvey Wallbanger Team or something like that. To worry me,
you got a little bit of juice. And even then, man,
and think about Uker as big as he is, if
(03:42):
he's that guy fifteen years later with the advent and
everything else that goes on, but just that you didn't
have that that.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
What one and done.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
Like a lot of guys got a cup of coffee
or a quick arc on a sitcom, it's like, ah,
is this gonna work?
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
He was the head guy of one hundred and seven Street,
sure it was.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
And Bob Umer, like Christopher Hewett was the store what
you know he was, And then Bob Ucker was you know,
a stretch. He was a sports writer. Then he got
a job sorry spoiler, then he gets a job on
TV at the end, like that's that's his character. Rock, Oh,
I'm a TV a sports on outside about that? Yeah,
he'd always called him Belvidere, Hey Belvindere, Hey Belvidere, Hey Belvidere.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
What a great show.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
I mean, look Bob Buker's life, like like to wait
to hit it as big as he did. Like you
have to remember this is back in the in the eighties,
seventies and eighties when comedians and people who were looking for,
you know, whatever they wanted to do next, you went
on the late night shows. Now people going the late
night shows as hey, we're promoting movies, we're doing all this.
(04:45):
Some people still did that back then, but this was
where as a comedian, you got you were broke on
the Tonight Show like you got on the Tonight Show,
and that's how you became famous. How Joan Rivers got
her started. How many comedians like you see the video
all the time. Here's Jim Carrey's first appearance on the
Tonight Show right and still nowadays like Conan O'Brien, a
lot of comedians now got their start on Conan O'Brien
show when when he was on. But back then in
(05:07):
the in the you know in the eighties, it was
if you were on Letterman or if you were on
Johnny Carson. You were on one of those shows and
you killed all of a sudden, whoa, whoa who is
this guy? Because there wasn't a big there wasn't a
big avenue for it, because after Letterman and Carson went
off the air, you got the the the bars and
tone and they and you deserved boo from two and
them until six in the morning.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
But those are the last guys to really run comedians
all the time? Yeah, right, and Conan did some, but
it usually ended up being in a sketch. And then
we know where we're at in the state of late
night these days, right where it's all right, how do
we make a viral clip?
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Right where there's also more more more ways. I mean,
there's so many more things, more ways.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
For commedct but just saying in terms of those shows,
they still exist.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Not in that format and where you would go to
the couch? What did that readon? Was over one hundred times?
Just said that Carson? Think about that?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
He was on the Johnny Carson Show over one hundred times.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
No, that guy canceled. Can you get out in thirty years?
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Right?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
So thirty years that means he was on three times
a year. You have that many stories. I mean, you
played what eight days in the yead but now you've been.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Around, but you've been around the game for seventy years
of his life.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
There's people who are really entertaining that make me laugh
all the time.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
All this.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
I don't know that you have enough to be on
a Tonight show three times a year for for you know,
thirty Like, how do you how does that even happen
as a yeah, you know what're missing? I'm sure it was, Hey,
if if a guest falls through, call you kill.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Me on yeah, come off season.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
I mean that's I mean, that's something that I can't
believe he was on that many times. But the way
that Bob Buker was able to become his own cottage
industry and it was really just about self deprecation, which
you don't have anymore. And that's usually the first thing
you ever taught at any kind of show businesses. Don't
be cocky, arrogant, you know, be self deprecating, understand, be
(07:02):
a little humble. And you know that's kind of gone
because people decide I don't need to do that. I
could just be a jerk and it doesn't matter. But
that was like, like, that's when you know you and
I coming up was always be self deprecating, be this
being Like I was told that when we first started
doing radio. Hey, you know, be humble, be self deprecating,
don't don't don't say things, I mean you say things
like I hate to say I told you so, but
I'm like, and I can't tell you all the bad
(07:24):
advice I've ever gotten, you know, radio. But the best
thing is that they always told me is you know,
be yourself, be a version of yourself when you're doing things.
Be yourself. And Bob Buker, that's just who he was. Like, Yeah,
I know I didn't have a great career. What were
your big career highlights. I got intentionally walked by Sandy Kofax.
Like that's that's a good pride, just to get to
the picture, right, I got intentionally walk by Sandy Kofax.
(07:46):
How do you catch a knuckleball? Well, there's two ways
to do it. Neither of them work, you know. I
mean just how he was able to wait, like just
the way he was able to be so self deprecating,
and that was his whole that was who he was,
like he was an everyman and and getting the break
on Major League it was it was I mean, it's
lightning in a bottle for him. And you know, you
(08:08):
watch the movie and your favorite lines of Bob Buker's
change from year to year. And and you know, sometimes
everybody likes to just a bit outside that we played
the beginning, because that's the big calling card. I'm sure
if I had a dollar for every time someone saw
him since nineteen eighty nine and said just a bit
outside probably way you know, you get, you get, you
get to stuff like, you know, three hits. That's all
we got was three bleeping hits. Yeah, I'm half in
(08:30):
the bag. Nobody's listening.
Speaker 5 (08:31):
You know.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
He's not the best color guy in the business for nothing,
you know, but he just says flyball call like you're
you're you're.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
The broadcasting paying off.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Anyway, run it down for your MONI what do you say?
It's great that Okay, he's not the best color guy
in the business for nothing. Uh just be and and
and and how that has lived. That movie's living forever
and it still lives forever. And it's just you know,
you you see the genius that was that that he
was able to bring to this role just because I
might like when you watched mister Belvindere, he was himself
(09:02):
the miller like commercials, he was himself. That's all, he's
a cottage industry because all I was was this is
who I am, and you don't really get that that
much anymore because so many people come up with this
is gonna be my angle, this is how I have
to cut through. I have to have some sort of
wave people to notice me. And boy, I'm a lot
different off the when you don't see me on TV
than when I'm on TV or when I'm in the movies.
(09:22):
When I'm not in the movies, and it's really really
rare to see someone that No. He was, that was
pretty much who he was his entire career. And obviously
you know, look we talked about all the things that
he's done and I haven't mentioned that. Oh yeah, he worked.
He was play by play for the Brewers up until
this last year, you know, I mean Peter Alonzo was
I mean Pete Alonzo again, that was the last game
(09:43):
that he did. You know, the way he was able
to broadcast for that long till he was ninety years old.
He found a way when you listen to him to
do games, to talk about the game. Part of it
is he found a way to be serious without being
too serious, right, like to really I understand what I
do for a living, and and I know I take
it seriously, but I don't take myself too seriously. And
(10:04):
and and when you think about Bob Egger that way,
it's like I feel like it was it was a
golden road for him because he had he knew the secret, right,
take what I do seriously, don't take myself too seriously.
And that doesn't well, but that's.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
The era of those broadcasters. Just go town to town
like all those guys. Go back to Harwell, go back
to what Harry Carey was.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
You leaned into the fact that everybody knew you liked
to drink all right now doing Budwiser commercials.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Oh that's great.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
Oh wait, we're gonna go sit in the bleachers and
I get to go hang out with the you know,
the co ed's that are there in the out there. Sure,
Arnie Harris, our producer is gonna give us all sort
of and director's gonna give us all sorts of fun
angles uh to play over and my partner Steve Stone's
gonna yuck it up. I mean, I I can't tell
you how many times I go back and listen to
old calls, just shaking my head with the back and
(10:51):
forth there, but when it came to the the game,
deadly serious, loved baseball, was you know, honest about what
he was watching Ken Harrilson's thing polarizing, guy, just go
city to city. It's a different era, right, love the game,
being around the game, but also recognizing in the end,
it's a kid's game, right, and you're getting paid to
(11:13):
go city to city, eat at the best restaurants, meat
all sorts of folks and having a great life with it.
And Bob Buker epitomized that, right, all those stories, like
I said, watching some of the old Carson clips, watching
and really an inordinate number of Norm McDonald clips talking
about his relationship with because he had a great Bob
(11:33):
Youumer impression and he was the one guy that had
a Bob Buker impression.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Like it really like my brand children's impression. Wow, got
a Bob.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
But like my brother kept in the dating after you know,
we exchanged this morning the news comes out and it's like, oh,
it's too bad, and obviously I'm up, you know, way
too early.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
After getting up and it breaks.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
It is like immediately sending them a note and my
older brother within like five minutes. He's got three Norm
McDonald clips talking about hanging out with you. All very
different stories, oh, very different, you know, my seriousness slash prevanity.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
It's kind of like this, whereas obviously you know you
don't curse when you're on it's one thing, you know,
you can't bring that to the air, and he couldn't
do that. But like conversations with Bob Uker on the
air and off them, you know, you have that little
more looseness than you curse. Like I curse a lot.
When I'm off the air, you get I curse a lot.
But like it's almost like it was with Bino Cook,
Like when when Pino on the air and he would
(12:32):
talk and and and and and and Jason, I I, Jason,
I can you tell me did the Steelers beat the
Jets on Sunday? I didn't see the final score right,
like stuff like that. But then off the air, Hey dude,
how you doing today? Is a blank and horror show.
I got up late, I missed the mailman came, and
then get to give him his blanking thing for Christmas.
(12:52):
So now I gotta stay up tomorrow when he comes in.
Like that's what Bino was like it was funny, like,
but it's still that's still who he was. He just
you know, I'm throwing enough bomb in here now and again, Yeah,
that's kind of what Uker would be off there. Look,
he did the same thing in Major League.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
They just bleeped it out and he's had a different
you know, it just kind of funny like some of
those stories, like and then he paused in the middle
of sena. It's like, boy, I'm really taking away some
of you know, the sanctity of what Bob.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Like.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Ah, he's just a man. So anyway, he tells me, hey,
like such a good stuff.

it's been an absolute wild week for you with the
(17:36):
fires here in Los Angeles. You safe, your family is safe. Everything. Okay.
Speaker 5 (17:41):
We actually got back in our house. Thank you, guys,
our house we are, Thank god, we're safe. We got
back in our house about two hours ago. We've got power,
no hot water or no heat, which just means, I
guess it's snuggle Rosie times. I'm good and uh, but
you know it's it's it's wild because where our old
(18:03):
house was, which is just some miles down the road, is.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Completely gone, as is everything over there.
Speaker 5 (18:09):
So it's kind of like about four miles down from us,
everything south without is gone, everything north without us here.
I've got a lot of friends who lost every day.
And listen, guys, one thing I will tell you here.
I was I was on ground zero.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Not eleven and it's.
Speaker 5 (18:28):
The worst thing that ever happened to us, and the
best of people came out and the same thing is
happening here, like the worst of times brings out the
best of people.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Talking about that God is saying, this is how I.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
Want you to act. Can you please act like this?
Not just in time to tragedy and it's it's been,
it's just it's it's it's let's we haven't better than
the most, but which exhausting just being displaced and not
knowing and you know, we came up there, I met
with the Uh, it's pretty while the cross Like now
(19:02):
I've figured out though, like where my house is state
this place here because the ground zero for the fire department.
It's pretty much right almost cross the street, little bit
down room a beach, but it looks like a military base.
It goes on for about a mile. There's four thousand
firemen and women and support staffs. There are four thousand
(19:23):
and from you see we drove past, say, there's two.
We just got back up here. And there's cars from everywhere,
like fire trucks from everywhere, notts just here and there's
tents for them on the beach for them to fire
fires come back to sleep. But it's not like there's
a lot of fire. There's a lot of people here
from I mean it goes different countries, different states. Well
(19:46):
you know, think about that. Where are they going to sleep?
So there's all these tents set up, there's all these
trucks set up for them, there's trucks set up for shower,
there's always I mean, there's so many volunteers to set
up for like food.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
And for yes. I think also like it's strenuous.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
They have like coro practice and physical therapist here for
these guys to put their bodies through. It was just
it's amazing. I'm actually going back tomorrow in the morning
to bring more supplies and just talk mental health, whoever
needs it, whoever I can just be around it, be
around them, and it's really part of it too, like
just giving your time, uh to them. I think it
(20:26):
was a lot when I realized the other day when
I went there and went with Rosie and they're kind
of making a big go over her, which is good.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Which is funny.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
So we had a little we had a little levity.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
There which is good.
Speaker 5 (20:37):
Look laughter, right, I always say it one of my pillars,
like laughter, fights to that gradient and this was this
is beyond great. This is they're in for a tough
fight too. Because after they put these fires out right now,
thank god they're contained, they said, you know, our next
fight to be really hard. We have to go kind
of search the house to house for for for bodies remains.
(21:01):
So there's gonna be gonna be a really it's not.
I just I don't want people to think, Hey, the
fires are out and the fight's over. It's not the
chase like I think, the struggle is just beginning for
a lot of people.
Speaker 4 (21:15):
Good to hear our guys voice, things are turning in
a positive direction. He's on the ground and helping out
and obviously nationwide globally wherever you can help chime in
as well, Jay Glaizer, our guests here on the show.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Jay, some news in the in the Fox line.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
A lot of speculation about Tom Brady in the broadcast world,
his ties to the Raiders and what it all means
and what his tenure happens. I mean, you've been working
with Tom and we've had a couple of great clips
with you this year on the pregame show. What's the
expectation going forward?
Speaker 5 (21:48):
Every time I've talked to him, he's like, I'm doing
this for ten years, like.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
He loves it.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
And I'll tell you this, he is working his butt
off on the seats like people have no idea what
he's doing. I do a lot of people talk to
you like he is, but he's not one of wo likes.
He's a private dude. But he is working so hard
to be great at this. And I think, like Tom
Brady thought, it's the greatest something, he ain't gonna stop
till he's like, not just great, but the best of it.
(22:14):
So I think everyone else is speculated without.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Really even asking him.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
Maybe they should ask him.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
I think, idea, why don't you ask him?
Speaker 5 (22:28):
How's that for a novel?
Speaker 3 (22:29):
Idea?
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Right, I tell you to tell me he's your new
uber driver.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
I thought that was gonna just.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
How he longed. Don't ever take that job from how
he longed. He lives for that, by the way. By
the way, recently I raised his uber rating up to
four z point one stars.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Whoa, there.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
He was down the two flew out.
Speaker 5 (22:52):
He was down the two flew while he was getting lippy.
I didn't like it. I don't like him. My uber
driver stuff back to me and get lippy. You know
he he's got a spectacular job of driving me around this.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Has he been suspected the swim move that he's pattented
in nineteen eighty five and driving me around the two
greatest things?
Speaker 5 (23:12):
And how do I mean let me tell you? Let
me tell you that again. Howie Longman, you gotta see this.
You know this square dude? How we bad at SB
who ever played you know that position? Right? And and
BRODDI one of the nastiest humans who've ever played football.
Like he's a bad soob. Or my son he's like
eight or nine years old. And Sammy says, Daddy, I
(23:34):
gotta do a book report. I'm not gonna say the
player is and I gotta do a book report on
such and such.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
I said, well, why don't you call Uncle Howie.
Speaker 5 (23:42):
Uncle Howie probably knows him.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
You could call Clowie. And my eight year.
Speaker 5 (23:47):
Old son called uncle Howe. Says Uncle Howie, I got
to do a book report at.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Such and sun and how He goes, yeah.
Speaker 5 (23:54):
That rat bastard cut me in this game.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
My name is I'm a smash. I'm like chills, dude.
Speaker 5 (24:00):
I was like, whoa, whoa whoa. Sammy is like, oh
my god, I'm a Cammy. That's not part of the
book report. I'm like, dude, you have the fun with Sammy.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Yeah, well, Sammy, what.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
Kind of guys doing a book report on wrapped faster cut?
Speaker 3 (24:15):
My knees out this game? Oh we can kill this dude.
Speaker 5 (24:20):
I'm like, Sammy, then he should do a book report
on the real Howe Long.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Daddy? What's a chop block?
Speaker 5 (24:28):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Can you explain that to?
Speaker 5 (24:29):
What is that? Bro? You're talking to an eight year old,
but old old Howie. He clicks over, he looks over.
You do not want to be in the crosschairs and
hence the two point two rating.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
At first, that's it.
Speaker 4 (24:46):
I'm going to a card show and I'm going to
ask for the inscription of Nippy.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
All right, well, hey Jay, let's get to the coaching carousel.
A couple of big stories obviously the Cowboys opening. Dion
Sanders has mentioned Jason, and Whitton has mentioned what's happening
in Dallas.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
That's not really what's going on right now. They're just
kind of kind of going through They've got they're kind
of opening the deck here a little bit. But they
have a couple of different ways they want to go.
You know, Dean and Jerry are really really really close,
like is like a second son. It like he loves Dion,
(25:24):
But I'm I don't see what happening, you know, And
I think, you know, they love Jason witten To, but
that isn't the thing of like, hey, let's just hire
something that we love. Like it's just it's just not
what they're going to do. So because they got Robert
Salah coming in here soon, they're bringing telling more in.
But I think they're sitting there going, Okay, what are
we really going to do here? Because they have a
(25:46):
couple of different ways to go. I know they actually
they like their offensive stuff. They love Actually what Michael
and Clart and Brian shot Humm do with dak now
would be surpribed if they get Bryan in there.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
But I think when too, there's kind of like, Okay, which.
Speaker 5 (26:01):
Way we're going to go to?
Speaker 3 (26:03):
And then we got I think I think I think
it's early for them, And.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
Then we got the fun and exciting, always swirling world
of Bill Belichie.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
They missed the window I'm talking to like Ben Johnson,
Aaron Glenn, Eric Glenn was there all right, and Eric
Glenn is a phenomenal choice. If you want to keep
your offitive staff and you want to get a guy,
all right, we already know this guy and the phenomenal
coach and motivator of defense Ghosts. That's a great choice.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
But they missed the window.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
They can't talk to him now. You know, I think
until one another talking about I think about is it
the part week for them? If they make it over
the Super Bowl? I don't remember that. There's so many
rules that change, but I remember. But they can't do
it now.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
The Jets are going to get Aaron blen Jay right,
we're putting out of the Jets are going to get
out the twentieth guy on this the Dungeons and Dragon
died there.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
A couple of teams go like Aaron Glenn, hoping he's
just Jets.
Speaker 5 (26:55):
I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
If I'm Dallas, I'm like, man, we know him.
Speaker 5 (26:59):
If we like our off of the staff, great, gotta
go after how'much saying that's where they're going to go.
I know they don't know where they're.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
Going right now.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Jake Glazer with us here on Fox Sports Radio. You
want to check out Unbreakable, a mental Wealth podcast. And
I know a great guest this week, a very difficult
guest you had Jayu had Body by Jake Jake steinfeld
On and unfortunately he lost everything in the fires. What
was that conversation?
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Like with him everything he has to be sure on
his back literally, that's it. And I want to say something.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
Here because people have commented about rich people losing their homes.
That is such an hignorance statement. The rich people lost
their homes, became rich and got there because they worked
their freaking asses off more than.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Ever anybody you could ever mess.
Speaker 5 (27:49):
They've got knocked down.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
More than anybody else.
Speaker 5 (27:52):
They've gotten rejected more than anybody else, and they did stop.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
So it's such a garbage.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
Thing for people to go, oh, it's a bunch of
rich people, such a horrible thing. And when tragedy strikes
everywhere else, people don't go, oh, it's what's the poor people,
it's about the middle classimle, we don't do that's not
the right thing.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
As Americans.
Speaker 5 (28:11):
You've come together. So that's garbage. So here is Jake Donzel,
who Yeah, he's lived in my house for forty years
and he literally has the closed off his back and guys.
I showed a clip today with the clip tomorrow is
the one you're gonna want to see because he talks
and he looks tied by Jake is that he's the
(28:32):
first infomercial guy for Waits in America. He was the
first personal trainer ever in Hollywood. He was a loofertor
he knows body double on The Incredible Hope and the
Legend right, and he starts crying on the podcasts and
the reason why that's how somebody make a remark today too,
about all possessions are for the week.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Shut up.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
He said, ma'am, I'm a that crazy dad. I saved
every single thing for my kids ever that I got
anything I ever did in school, and he never saved
them all. And then he just started crying and goes,
it's all gone. And he said, and I try to
like to do my thing where I pump something up,
(29:16):
but Jay, the memories never gone. And he's like, Jay,
I love you, but you're not You're not there, Like
you're not you're not going through it. It's it's gone.
And and he is like, he's a strong He's one
of the strongest people I know. So he has every
right to cry.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
He's the only question in his manhood. And he's a
really close friend of mine. But he's right.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
I'm out there.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
I mean, I just had to evacuated.
Speaker 5 (29:40):
He lost everything, right down to everything beside literally the
clothes that he has on his back.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
And I wanted to do this.
Speaker 5 (29:51):
That's with him, because I want to understand people understand
the pain that the rest of us are in because
we need you right now. We need our teammates, and
our teammates are the rest of America. And god, I
was down there and ground zero for.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Nine to eleven and oh my god, the kindness and the.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
Everyone becoming teammates together, it was it lifted us all up.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
We all need it.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
Katrina hart Day Harvey, we all became teammates. And I
hope I listened to his podcasts. If you're understand how
much we all need you as our teammates to get
through this. This ain't going to be easy. Like again,
there's there's a lars like most of my time is
gone and we love you, and it's it's it's it's
(30:40):
hard to see. It's it's hard to see people have
work their whole lives for something and it's all gone.
And like it's not it's not just that it is
those memberies with kids and grandkids. Some things you just
can't get back. So we need our teammates now more
than ever. So please listen this week to our podcast

Speaker 2 (35:22):
You missed it.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
We'll get that up and the best of our best
of podcast goes up right after the show is over.
Wherever you get your podcasts from Just search Jason Smith
and Mike Harmon. Incredible visit from Jay who was evacuated
because of the wildfires back home now and we talked
a little bit with about Tom Brady with Jay Lazer,
and now according to Brady's agent, he's gonna stay broadcasting,
(35:43):
gonna fulfill the ten year deal. Well, I say, when
I have nine years and thirty seven million dollars a year,
I'm gonna find a way to do that.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
But or at least have them pay me out one day.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
There was questions can he do that? Can he still
own the Raiders? Is there some sort of conflict of interest?
The conflict of interest is just stupid. It's just stupid.
Oh Brady said this on the air. That means he's good.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
They're gonna have to get Ben Johnson. Well, he talked
to Ben Johnson last week. I mean, come on, it's
just dumb. It's it's absolutely dumb, especially nowadays. I mean, really,
how much have we blurred the line with confident of interest?
And it's it's fine if Brady and Brady broadcast like
it's just such a joke in this business for folks
to be wagging their fingers on this one. And it's
(36:24):
not like unless Tom Brady has been classified a wizard,
he can't do mine control.
Speaker 1 (36:29):
Yes, you will be coaching with you. That's kind of stupid.
It's a stupid controversy. But Brady's gonna stay. And after
seeing Brady now for a year, I was surprised. I
thought it would be a little bit more natural for him,
it would come a little bit quicker to him, because
I look, I've never seen Tom Brady not succeed in anything.
Not that he's not succeeding, but I think everybody expected
(36:52):
a little bit something different. But I'll tell you what
with benefits of now eighteen weeks and a week of
playoffs in high you know what would have been great
for him Because I listened to him broadcast and I say,
he just can't be himself yet because he's worried about
explaining the block on this play and what happened with
(37:12):
the running back, and then he's got no time to
be himself. Pretty. He's a great personality, and this is
why something like the Manning Cast allows Peyton Manning to
be himself, Eli to be himself. Now Tom wants to
call games. Okay, great, but it's hard to be yourself
and do things like you want to do and tell
stories about guys and be really entertaining.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
When you have to go through that.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
I don't think he's been able to get to the
point where he's so comfortable where yeah, I can do this,
then I can segue into a story and I can
spin a yarn. He feels really beholden to explain what
happened on every play. So what would have helped this?
And looking back, you know now eighteen weeks, if they
had put him, if it was a three man booth,
if it was Kevin Burkhart, Tom Brady and another analyst,
(37:59):
and that analyst basically did this stuff after the play, Hey,
what happened on this interception? Here's the nuts and bolts,
this happens, yeah, bah blah blah. And then Tom can
come in and say, let me tell you what happened
on Let me tell you from the quarterback what he did,
let me tell you the defensive back did, and come
in with something really insightful, or tell a fun story
about this guy. This guy played basketball with him in
(38:19):
the offseason. Like people want to hear Brady in his
personality because he's got a really good one. He's a
lot of fun and I think that's kind of where
he was looking towards going. But the nuts and bolts
of the job have kind of gotten in that way.
If you had another analyst who'll be able to say,
after the play, oh, this, here's this, here's this, and
then Tom can pick and choose, because there's a lot
of mike time. When you're on three and a half
(38:40):
hours doing a football game and you're talking the entire time,
there's a lot of mic time for Tom Brady to
get in and get comfortable and then okay, after this year, Hey,
I think I got it. Now, I think we can
go to a two man booth and now it's me
and Kevin Burkhart. So I think the first year, if
they had Brady the three man booth, I think it
would have been a different experience. It would be a
different Brady and be a different point for him right now. Yeah,
(39:00):
the heart part is you also have the hate watching.
While we talk about it as players, a lot of
people with the poison pens ready for the first syllable
that Tom Brady uttered this year and they haven't let up.
So no matter how good it is, he's already you know,
been buried as well. I mean, look at what Greg
Olsen has been able to do. So like you say,
(39:23):
well he walked right off field. Well he did it
for five years. Yeah as a player. Why because he
kept getting hurt? Yeah, yeah, I'm free. I'm hurting.
Speaker 4 (39:30):
I'm ready the last six weeks and I'm not taking
it away from the guy had a fantastic career. He's
one of my favorite guys. I was still pissed when
the Bears let him go, had a chance to talk
about all that. He does a great job, but he
gets compared, you know, and what Romo did right and
coming in as he did. I think a Manning cast
like broadcasts, and this is where you know you got
(39:50):
a zag is you don't need to do it the
old traditional way. He could be him and Burkhart and
they just had the conversation. People are watching the TV.
They're seeing what's going on? So tell the story.
Speaker 1 (40:02):
Oh no, look, I always say I don't need to
know why. I don't always need to know what happened
on this running play the game seven yards right, I
don't even know if it's a pass play for forty yards,
but yeah, tell me what I Hey, okay.
Speaker 2 (40:14):
Springs free, Okay, cool? Next?
Speaker 1 (40:16):
Yeah, I mean right, I think, but I think a
three man booth would have really helped Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
I mean, what do I know.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
I've just been doing this for a long time.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
So what is some delated deflated football? Oh wow?
Speaker 1 (40:25):
Too soon?
Speaker 2 (40:26):
Too soon? You see him hit the target with that football.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
We'll tell you exactly where one superstar quarterback is going
to play next year. Fox

You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
On into the wind Up.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
In his first offering, Jos the bit outside was he
calling a Mets game?
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Stop?
Speaker 3 (00:44):
You know?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Can you let Kate? Can we play the Mister Belvedere
theme song for Bobby Kip? Can we play it for
Bob Buker? I'm surprised you didn't play the Pee Alonzo
home run in the middle of it. Welcome inside the
Jason Smith Show with Mike Harmon from the tire Rack
dot Com studios. And yeah, look, you know, sometimes you know,
(01:06):
shows are different, Sometimes shows begin weird. And I haven't
listened to Mister Belvidere theme song all day. After the
news of the passing of Bob Buker at the age
of ninety, there's you know, we say the word legend
and it gets a little bit over you sometimes, but
I mean there is you try to find somebody in
(01:27):
sports the last forty years bigger than Bob Uker, from
his playing days where he barely could hang on, into
his broadcasting days and to his commercial days and times
he hosted Coast of the Tonight Show. He's a guest
on that show over one hundred times. Then he started
on Mister Belvidere, and he was in millerte commercials, and
all of a sudden, Bob Buker goes from hey, here's
(01:48):
a backup catcher who has some fun stories to tell,
and he becomes an industry all of his own. And look,
we still play his major league drops. You know, the
movie was nineteen eighty nine, and here we are eleven
thirty five years later, and we're still okay, Francis Bob Buker,
(02:08):
and we're still like, we still run his lines, still
run the Harry Doyle lines all the time. That was
some kind of life Bob Buker.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Well, I mean, you don't often get a guy who
achieved so little at the major league level.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
He made he was a major leaguer, but generally those are,
you know, for guys that had long.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Careers became all stars became legends, and instead you had
a guy who told a lot of jokes.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I was listening to a bunch.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Of clips over the course of the day from great
comedians telling their stories.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Every one of them was profane.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
None of them had a simple Hey, you know, we
were hanging out with Bob and you know, something funny happened.
He's like, yeah, Bob started saying this, like whoa. Yeah,
so I think he feuded with almost every comedian that
you've come to know and love through the last forty
plus years as well. But the movies, we were running
Belvetere lines, and just the other day.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
We were just like, we were just talking about mister
Belvindere two days ago. I found it, like right, I
looked at it. I'd like, I said, where were people
responding on social media? I looked like, go, oh, yeah, yeah,
we we were just talking about mister Belvidere.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Like hes a.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
This guy goes from hey, okay, now I'm a I'm
a big spot a sports personality, and I'm doing interviews.
Now I'm starring in a sitcom. Whoa Okay, That's how
it goes.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
One hundred and seventeen episodes of a sitcom that wasn't
just a hey, you got a shot because you know,
you caught lightning in the bottle, because people were paying
attention to the Brewers like an eighty two right, the
Harvey Wallbanger Team or something like that. To worry me,
you got a little bit of juice. And even then, man,
and think about Uker as big as he is, if
(03:42):
he's that guy fifteen years later with the advent and
everything else that goes on, but just that you didn't
have that that.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
What one and done.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
Like a lot of guys got a cup of coffee
or a quick arc on a sitcom, it's like, ah,
is this gonna work?
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
He was the head guy of one hundred and seven Street,
sure it was.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
And Bob Umer, like Christopher Hewett was the store what
you know he was, And then Bob Ucker was you know,
a stretch. He was a sports writer. Then he got
a job sorry spoiler, then he gets a job on
TV at the end, like that's that's his character. Rock, Oh,
I'm a TV a sports on outside about that? Yeah,
he'd always called him Belvidere, Hey Belvindere, Hey Belvidere, Hey Belvidere.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
What a great show.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
I mean, look Bob Buker's life, like like to wait
to hit it as big as he did. Like you
have to remember this is back in the in the eighties,
seventies and eighties when comedians and people who were looking for,
you know, whatever they wanted to do next, you went
on the late night shows. Now people going the late
night shows as hey, we're promoting movies, we're doing all this.
(04:45):
Some people still did that back then, but this was
where as a comedian, you got you were broke on
the Tonight Show like you got on the Tonight Show,
and that's how you became famous. How Joan Rivers got
her started. How many comedians like you see the video
all the time. Here's Jim Carrey's first appearance on the
Tonight Show right and still nowadays like Conan O'Brien, a
lot of comedians now got their start on Conan O'Brien
show when when he was on. But back then in
(05:07):
the in the you know in the eighties, it was
if you were on Letterman or if you were on
Johnny Carson. You were on one of those shows and
you killed all of a sudden, whoa, whoa who is
this guy? Because there wasn't a big there wasn't a
big avenue for it, because after Letterman and Carson went
off the air, you got the the the bars and
tone and they and you deserved boo from two and
them until six in the morning.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
But those are the last guys to really run comedians
all the time? Yeah, right, and Conan did some, but
it usually ended up being in a sketch. And then
we know where we're at in the state of late
night these days, right where it's all right, how do
we make a viral clip?
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Right where there's also more more more ways. I mean,
there's so many more things, more ways.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
For commedct but just saying in terms of those shows,
they still exist.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Not in that format and where you would go to
the couch? What did that readon? Was over one hundred times?
Just said that Carson? Think about that?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
He was on the Johnny Carson Show over one hundred times.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
No, that guy canceled. Can you get out in thirty years?
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Right?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
So thirty years that means he was on three times
a year. You have that many stories. I mean, you
played what eight days in the yead but now you've been.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Around, but you've been around the game for seventy years
of his life.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
There's people who are really entertaining that make me laugh
all the time.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
All this.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
I don't know that you have enough to be on
a Tonight show three times a year for for you know,
thirty Like, how do you how does that even happen
as a yeah, you know what're missing? I'm sure it was, Hey,
if if a guest falls through, call you kill.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Me on yeah, come off season.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
I mean that's I mean, that's something that I can't
believe he was on that many times. But the way
that Bob Buker was able to become his own cottage
industry and it was really just about self deprecation, which
you don't have anymore. And that's usually the first thing
you ever taught at any kind of show businesses. Don't
be cocky, arrogant, you know, be self deprecating, understand, be
(07:02):
a little humble. And you know that's kind of gone
because people decide I don't need to do that. I
could just be a jerk and it doesn't matter. But
that was like, like, that's when you know you and
I coming up was always be self deprecating, be this
being Like I was told that when we first started
doing radio. Hey, you know, be humble, be self deprecating,
don't don't don't say things, I mean you say things
like I hate to say I told you so, but
I'm like, and I can't tell you all the bad
(07:24):
advice I've ever gotten, you know, radio. But the best
thing is that they always told me is you know,
be yourself, be a version of yourself when you're doing things.
Be yourself. And Bob Buker, that's just who he was. Like, Yeah,
I know I didn't have a great career. What were
your big career highlights. I got intentionally walked by Sandy Kofax.
Like that's that's a good pride, just to get to
the picture, right, I got intentionally walk by Sandy Kofax.
(07:46):
How do you catch a knuckleball? Well, there's two ways
to do it. Neither of them work, you know. I
mean just how he was able to wait, like just
the way he was able to be so self deprecating,
and that was his whole that was who he was,
like he was an everyman and and getting the break
on Major League it was it was I mean, it's
lightning in a bottle for him. And you know, you
(08:08):
watch the movie and your favorite lines of Bob Buker's
change from year to year. And and you know, sometimes
everybody likes to just a bit outside that we played
the beginning, because that's the big calling card. I'm sure
if I had a dollar for every time someone saw
him since nineteen eighty nine and said just a bit
outside probably way you know, you get, you get, you
get to stuff like, you know, three hits. That's all
we got was three bleeping hits. Yeah, I'm half in
(08:30):
the bag. Nobody's listening.
Speaker 5 (08:31):
You know.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
He's not the best color guy in the business for nothing,
you know, but he just says flyball call like you're
you're you're.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
The broadcasting paying off.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Anyway, run it down for your MONI what do you say?
It's great that Okay, he's not the best color guy
in the business for nothing. Uh just be and and
and and how that has lived. That movie's living forever
and it still lives forever. And it's just you know,
you you see the genius that was that that he
was able to bring to this role just because I
might like when you watched mister Belvindere, he was himself
(09:02):
the miller like commercials, he was himself. That's all, he's
a cottage industry because all I was was this is
who I am, and you don't really get that that
much anymore because so many people come up with this
is gonna be my angle, this is how I have
to cut through. I have to have some sort of
wave people to notice me. And boy, I'm a lot
different off the when you don't see me on TV
than when I'm on TV or when I'm in the movies.
(09:22):
When I'm not in the movies, and it's really really
rare to see someone that No. He was, that was
pretty much who he was his entire career. And obviously
you know, look we talked about all the things that
he's done and I haven't mentioned that. Oh yeah, he worked.
He was play by play for the Brewers up until
this last year, you know, I mean Peter Alonzo was
I mean Pete Alonzo again, that was the last game
(09:43):
that he did. You know, the way he was able
to broadcast for that long till he was ninety years old.
He found a way when you listen to him to
do games, to talk about the game. Part of it
is he found a way to be serious without being
too serious, right, like to really I understand what I
do for a living, and and I know I take
it seriously, but I don't take myself too seriously. And
(10:04):
and and when you think about Bob Egger that way,
it's like I feel like it was it was a
golden road for him because he had he knew the secret, right,
take what I do seriously, don't take myself too seriously.
And that doesn't well, but that's.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
The era of those broadcasters. Just go town to town
like all those guys. Go back to Harwell, go back
to what Harry Carey was.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
You leaned into the fact that everybody knew you liked
to drink all right now doing Budwiser commercials.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Oh that's great.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
Oh wait, we're gonna go sit in the bleachers and
I get to go hang out with the you know,
the co ed's that are there in the out there. Sure,
Arnie Harris, our producer is gonna give us all sort
of and director's gonna give us all sorts of fun
angles uh to play over and my partner Steve Stone's
gonna yuck it up. I mean, I I can't tell
you how many times I go back and listen to
old calls, just shaking my head with the back and
(10:51):
forth there, but when it came to the the game,
deadly serious, loved baseball, was you know, honest about what
he was watching Ken Harrilson's thing polarizing, guy, just go
city to city. It's a different era, right, love the game,
being around the game, but also recognizing in the end,
it's a kid's game, right, and you're getting paid to
(11:13):
go city to city, eat at the best restaurants, meat
all sorts of folks and having a great life with it.
And Bob Buker epitomized that, right, all those stories, like
I said, watching some of the old Carson clips, watching
and really an inordinate number of Norm McDonald clips talking
about his relationship with because he had a great Bob
(11:33):
Youumer impression and he was the one guy that had
a Bob Buker impression.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Like it really like my brand children's impression. Wow, got
a Bob.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
But like my brother kept in the dating after you know,
we exchanged this morning the news comes out and it's like, oh,
it's too bad, and obviously I'm up, you know, way
too early.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
After getting up and it breaks.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
It is like immediately sending them a note and my
older brother within like five minutes. He's got three Norm
McDonald clips talking about hanging out with you. All very
different stories, oh, very different, you know, my seriousness slash prevanity.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
It's kind of like this, whereas obviously you know you
don't curse when you're on it's one thing, you know,
you can't bring that to the air, and he couldn't
do that. But like conversations with Bob Uker on the
air and off them, you know, you have that little
more looseness than you curse. Like I curse a lot.
When I'm off the air, you get I curse a lot.
But like it's almost like it was with Bino Cook,
Like when when Pino on the air and he would
(12:32):
talk and and and and and and Jason, I I, Jason,
I can you tell me did the Steelers beat the
Jets on Sunday? I didn't see the final score right,
like stuff like that. But then off the air, Hey dude,
how you doing today? Is a blank and horror show.
I got up late, I missed the mailman came, and
then get to give him his blanking thing for Christmas.
(12:52):
So now I gotta stay up tomorrow when he comes in.
Like that's what Bino was like it was funny, like,
but it's still that's still who he was. He just
you know, I'm throwing enough bomb in here now and again, Yeah,
that's kind of what Uker would be off there. Look,
he did the same thing in Major League.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
They just bleeped it out and he's had a different
you know, it just kind of funny like some of
those stories, like and then he paused in the middle
of sena. It's like, boy, I'm really taking away some
of you know, the sanctity of what Bob.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
Like.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Ah, he's just a man. So anyway, he tells me, hey,
like such a good stuff.

year NFL on Fox Insider extraordinary, Jay Glazer and I know, Jay,
it's been an absolute wild week for you with the
(17:36):
fires here in Los Angeles. You safe, your family is safe. Everything. Okay.
Speaker 5 (17:41):
We actually got back in our house. Thank you, guys,
our house we are, Thank god, we're safe. We got
back in our house about two hours ago. We've got power,
no hot water or no heat, which just means, I
guess it's snuggle Rosie times. I'm good and uh, but
you know it's it's it's wild because where our old
(18:03):
house was, which is just some miles down the road, is.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Completely gone, as is everything over there.
Speaker 5 (18:09):
So it's kind of like about four miles down from us,
everything south without is gone, everything north without us here.
I've got a lot of friends who lost every day.
And listen, guys, one thing I will tell you here.
I was I was on ground zero.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Not eleven and it's.
Speaker 5 (18:28):
The worst thing that ever happened to us, and the
best of people came out and the same thing is
happening here, like the worst of times brings out the
best of people.
Speaker 3 (18:36):
Talking about that God is saying, this is how I.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
Want you to act. Can you please act like this?
Not just in time to tragedy and it's it's been,
it's just it's it's it's let's we haven't better than
the most, but which exhausting just being displaced and not
knowing and you know, we came up there, I met
with the Uh, it's pretty while the cross Like now
(19:02):
I've figured out though, like where my house is state
this place here because the ground zero for the fire department.
It's pretty much right almost cross the street, little bit
down room a beach, but it looks like a military base.
It goes on for about a mile. There's four thousand
firemen and women and support staffs. There are four thousand
(19:23):
and from you see we drove past, say, there's two.
We just got back up here. And there's cars from everywhere,
like fire trucks from everywhere, notts just here and there's
tents for them on the beach for them to fire
fires come back to sleep. But it's not like there's
a lot of fire. There's a lot of people here
from I mean it goes different countries, different states. Well
(19:46):
you know, think about that. Where are they going to sleep?
So there's all these tents set up, there's all these
trucks set up for them, there's trucks set up for shower,
there's always I mean, there's so many volunteers to set
up for like food.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
And for yes. I think also like it's strenuous.
Speaker 5 (20:03):
They have like coro practice and physical therapist here for
these guys to put their bodies through. It was just
it's amazing. I'm actually going back tomorrow in the morning
to bring more supplies and just talk mental health, whoever
needs it, whoever I can just be around it, be
around them, and it's really part of it too, like
just giving your time, uh to them. I think it
(20:26):
was a lot when I realized the other day when
I went there and went with Rosie and they're kind
of making a big go over her, which is good.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Which is funny.
Speaker 5 (20:35):
So we had a little we had a little levity.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
There which is good.
Speaker 5 (20:37):
Look laughter, right, I always say it one of my pillars,
like laughter, fights to that gradient and this was this
is beyond great. This is they're in for a tough
fight too. Because after they put these fires out right now,
thank god they're contained, they said, you know, our next
fight to be really hard. We have to go kind
of search the house to house for for for bodies remains.
(21:01):
So there's gonna be gonna be a really it's not.
I just I don't want people to think, Hey, the
fires are out and the fight's over. It's not the
chase like I think, the struggle is just beginning for
a lot of people.
Speaker 4 (21:15):
Good to hear our guys voice, things are turning in
a positive direction. He's on the ground and helping out
and obviously nationwide globally wherever you can help chime in
as well, Jay Glaizer, our guests here on the show.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Jay, some news in the in the Fox line.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
A lot of speculation about Tom Brady in the broadcast world,
his ties to the Raiders and what it all means
and what his tenure happens. I mean, you've been working
with Tom and we've had a couple of great clips
with you this year on the pregame show. What's the
expectation going forward?
Speaker 5 (21:48):
Every time I've talked to him, he's like, I'm doing
this for ten years, like.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
He loves it.
Speaker 5 (21:53):
And I'll tell you this, he is working his butt
off on the seats like people have no idea what
he's doing. I do a lot of people talk to
you like he is, but he's not one of wo likes.
He's a private dude. But he is working so hard
to be great at this. And I think, like Tom
Brady thought, it's the greatest something, he ain't gonna stop
till he's like, not just great, but the best of it.
(22:14):
So I think everyone else is speculated without.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
Really even asking him.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
Maybe they should ask him.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
I think, idea, why don't you ask him?
Speaker 5 (22:28):
How's that for a novel?
Speaker 3 (22:29):
Idea?
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Right, I tell you to tell me he's your new
uber driver.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
I thought that was gonna just.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
How he longed. Don't ever take that job from how
he longed. He lives for that, by the way. By
the way, recently I raised his uber rating up to
four z point one stars.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Whoa, there.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
He was down the two flew out.
Speaker 5 (22:52):
He was down the two flew while he was getting lippy.
I didn't like it. I don't like him. My uber
driver stuff back to me and get lippy. You know
he he's got a spectacular job of driving me around this.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Has he been suspected the swim move that he's pattented
in nineteen eighty five and driving me around the two
greatest things?
Speaker 5 (23:12):
And how do I mean let me tell you? Let
me tell you that again. Howie Longman, you gotta see this.

BRODDI one of the nastiest humans who've ever played football.

player is and I gotta do a book report on
such and such.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
I said, well, why don't you call Uncle Howie.
Speaker 5 (23:42):
Uncle Howie probably knows him.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
You could call Clowie. And my eight year.
Speaker 5 (23:47):
Old son called uncle Howe. Says Uncle Howie, I got
to do a book report at.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Such and sun and how He goes, yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
Can you explain that to?
Speaker 5 (24:29):
What is that? Bro? You're talking to an eight year old,
but old old Howie. He clicks over, he looks over.
You do not want to be in the crosschairs and
hence the two point two rating.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
At first, that's it.
Speaker 4 (24:46):
I'm going to a card show and I'm going to
ask for the inscription of Nippy.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
All right, well, hey Jay, let's get to the coaching carousel.
A couple of big stories obviously the Cowboys opening. Dion
Sanders has mentioned Jason, and Whitton has mentioned what's happening
in Dallas.
Speaker 5 (25:03):
That's not really what's going on right now. They're just
kind of kind of going through They've got they're kind
of opening the deck here a little bit. But they
have a couple of different ways they want to go.
You know, Dean and Jerry are really really really close,
like is like a second son. It like he loves Dion,
(25:24):
But I'm I don't see what happening, you know, And
I think, you know, they love Jason witten To, but
that isn't the thing of like, hey, let's just hire
something that we love. Like it's just it's just not
what they're going to do. So because they got Robert
Salah coming in here soon, they're bringing telling more in.
But I think they're sitting there going, Okay, what are
we really going to do here? Because they have a
(25:46):
couple of different ways to go. I know they actually
they like their offensive stuff. They love Actually what Michael
and Clart and Brian shot Humm do with dak now
would be surpribed if they get Bryan in there.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
But I think when too, there's kind of like, Okay, which.
Speaker 5 (26:01):
Way we're going to go to?
Speaker 3 (26:03):
And then we got I think I think I think
it's early for them, And.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
Then we got the fun and exciting, always swirling world
of Bill Belichie.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
They missed the window I'm talking to like Ben Johnson,
Aaron Glenn, Eric Glenn was there all right, and Eric
Glenn is a phenomenal choice. If you want to keep
your offitive staff and you want to get a guy,
all right, we already know this guy and the phenomenal
coach and motivator of defense Ghosts. That's a great choice.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
But they missed the window.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
They can't talk to him now. You know, I think
until one another talking about I think about is it
the part week for them? If they make it over
the Super Bowl? I don't remember that. There's so many
rules that change, but I remember. But they can't do
it now.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
The Jets are going to get Aaron blen Jay right,
we're putting out of the Jets are going to get
out the twentieth guy on this the Dungeons and Dragon
died there.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
A couple of teams go like Aaron Glenn, hoping he's
just Jets.
Speaker 5 (26:55):
I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
If I'm Dallas, I'm like, man, we know him.
Speaker 5 (26:59):
If we like our off of the staff, great, gotta
go after how'much saying that's where they're going to go.
I know they don't know where they're.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
Going right now.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
Jake Glazer with us here on Fox Sports Radio. You
want to check out Unbreakable, a mental Wealth podcast. And
I know a great guest this week, a very difficult
guest you had Jayu had Body by Jake Jake steinfeld
On and unfortunately he lost everything in the fires. What
was that conversation?
Speaker 3 (27:24):
Like with him everything he has to be sure on
his back literally, that's it. And I want to say something.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
Here because people have commented about rich people losing their homes.
That is such an hignorance statement. The rich people lost
their homes, became rich and got there because they worked
their freaking asses off more than.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Ever anybody you could ever mess.
Speaker 5 (27:49):
They've got knocked down.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
More than anybody else.
Speaker 5 (27:52):
They've gotten rejected more than anybody else, and they did stop.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
So it's such a garbage.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
Thing for people to go, oh, it's a bunch of
rich people, such a horrible thing. And when tragedy strikes
everywhere else, people don't go, oh, it's what's the poor people,
it's about the middle classimle, we don't do that's not
the right thing.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
As Americans.
Speaker 5 (28:11):
You've come together. So that's garbage. So here is Jake Donzel,
who Yeah, he's lived in my house for forty years
and he literally has the closed off his back and guys.
I showed a clip today with the clip tomorrow is
the one you're gonna want to see because he talks
and he looks tied by Jake is that he's the
(28:32):
first infomercial guy for Waits in America. He was the
first personal trainer ever in Hollywood. He was a loofertor
he knows body double on The Incredible Hope and the
Legend right, and he starts crying on the podcasts and
the reason why that's how somebody make a remark today too,
about all possessions are for the week.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Shut up.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
He said, ma'am, I'm a that crazy dad. I saved
every single thing for my kids ever that I got
anything I ever did in school, and he never saved
them all. And then he just started crying and goes,
it's all gone. And he said, and I try to
like to do my thing where I pump something up,
(29:16):
but Jay, the memories never gone. And he's like, Jay,
I love you, but you're not You're not there, Like
you're not you're not going through it. It's it's gone.
And and he is like, he's a strong He's one
of the strongest people I know. So he has every
right to cry.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
He's the only question in his manhood. And he's a
really close friend of mine. But he's right.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
I'm out there.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
I mean, I just had to evacuated.
Speaker 5 (29:40):
He lost everything, right down to everything beside literally the
clothes that he has on his back.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
And I wanted to do this.
Speaker 5 (29:51):
That's with him, because I want to understand people understand
the pain that the rest of us are in because
we need you right now. We need our teammates, and
our teammates are the rest of America. And god, I
was down there and ground zero for.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Nine to eleven and oh my god, the kindness and the.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
Everyone becoming teammates together, it was it lifted us all up.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
We all need it.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
Katrina hart Day Harvey, we all became teammates. And I
hope I listened to his podcasts. If you're understand how
much we all need you as our teammates to get
through this. This ain't going to be easy. Like again,
there's there's a lars like most of my time is
gone and we love you, and it's it's it's it's
(30:40):
hard to see. It's it's hard to see people have
work their whole lives for something and it's all gone.
And like it's not it's not just that it is
those memberies with kids and grandkids. Some things you just
can't get back. So we need our teammates now more
than ever. So please listen this week to our podcast

We'll get that up and the best of our best
of podcast goes up right after the show is over.
Wherever you get your podcasts from Just search Jason Smith
and Mike Harmon. Incredible visit from Jay who was evacuated
because of the wildfires back home now and we talked
a little bit with about Tom Brady with Jay Lazer,
and now according to Brady's agent, he's gonna stay broadcasting,
(35:43):
gonna fulfill the ten year deal. Well, I say, when
I have nine years and thirty seven million dollars a year,
I'm gonna find a way to do that.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
But or at least have them pay me out one day.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
There was questions can he do that? Can he still
own the Raiders? Is there some sort of conflict of interest?
The conflict of interest is just stupid. It's just stupid.
Oh Brady said this on the air. That means he's good.
Speaker 4 (36:03):
They're gonna have to get Ben Johnson. Well, he talked
to Ben Johnson last week. I mean, come on, it's
just dumb. It's it's absolutely dumb, especially nowadays. I mean, really,
how much have we blurred the line with confident of interest?
And it's it's fine if Brady and Brady broadcast like
it's just such a joke in this business for folks
to be wagging their fingers on this one. And it's
(36:24):
not like unless Tom Brady has been classified a wizard,
he can't do mine control.
Speaker 1 (36:29):
Yes, you will be coaching with you. That's kind of stupid.
It's a stupid controversy. But Brady's gonna stay. And after
seeing Brady now for a year, I was surprised. I
thought it would be a little bit more natural for him,
it would come a little bit quicker to him, because
I look, I've never seen Tom Brady not succeed in anything.
Not that he's not succeeding, but I think everybody expected
(36:52):
a little bit something different. But I'll tell you what
with benefits of now eighteen weeks and a week of
playoffs in high you know what would have been great
for him Because I listened to him broadcast and I say,
he just can't be himself yet because he's worried about
explaining the block on this play and what happened with
(37:12):
the running back, and then he's got no time to
be himself. Pretty. He's a great personality, and this is
why something like the Manning Cast allows Peyton Manning to
be himself, Eli to be himself. Now Tom wants to
call games. Okay, great, but it's hard to be yourself
and do things like you want to do and tell
stories about guys and be really entertaining.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
When you have to go through that.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
I don't think he's been able to get to the
point where he's so comfortable where yeah, I can do this,
then I can segue into a story and I can
spin a yarn. He feels really beholden to explain what
happened on every play. So what would have helped this?
And looking back, you know now eighteen weeks, if they
had put him, if it was a three man booth,
if it was Kevin Burkhart, Tom Brady and another analyst,
(37:59):
and that analyst basically did this stuff after the play, Hey,
what happened on this interception? Here's the nuts and bolts,
this happens, yeah, bah blah blah. And then Tom can
come in and say, let me tell you what happened
on Let me tell you from the quarterback what he did,
let me tell you the defensive back did, and come
in with something really insightful, or tell a fun story
about this guy. This guy played basketball with him in
(38:19):
the offseason. Like people want to hear Brady in his
personality because he's got a really good one. He's a
lot of fun and I think that's kind of where
he was looking towards going. But the nuts and bolts
of the job have kind of gotten in that way.
If you had another analyst who'll be able to say,
after the play, oh, this, here's this, here's this, and
then Tom can pick and choose, because there's a lot
of mike time. When you're on three and a half
(38:40):
hours doing a football game and you're talking the entire time,
there's a lot of mic time for Tom Brady to
get in and get comfortable and then okay, after this year, Hey,
I think I got it. Now, I think we can
go to a two man booth and now it's me
and Kevin Burkhart. So I think the first year, if
they had Brady the three man booth, I think it
would have been a different experience. It would be a
different Brady and be a different point for him right now. Yeah,
(39:00):
the heart part is you also have the hate watching.
While we talk about it as players, a lot of
people with the poison pens ready for the first syllable
that Tom Brady uttered this year and they haven't let up.
So no matter how good it is, he's already you know,
been buried as well. I mean, look at what Greg
Olsen has been able to do. So like you say,
(39:23):
well he walked right off field. Well he did it
for five years. Yeah as a player. Why because he
kept getting hurt? Yeah, yeah, I'm free. I'm hurting.
Speaker 4 (39:30):
I'm ready the last six weeks and I'm not taking
it away from the guy had a fantastic career. He's
one of my favorite guys. I was still pissed when
the Bears let him go, had a chance to talk
about all that. He does a great job, but he
gets compared, you know, and what Romo did right and
coming in as he did. I think a Manning cast
like broadcasts, and this is where you know you got
(39:50):
a zag is you don't need to do it the
old traditional way. He could be him and Burkhart and
they just had the conversation. People are watching the TV.
They're seeing what's going on? So tell the story.
Speaker 1 (40:02):
Oh no, look, I always say I don't need to
know why. I don't always need to know what happened
on this running play the game seven yards right, I
don't even know if it's a pass play for forty yards,
but yeah, tell me what I Hey, okay.
Speaker 2 (40:14):
Springs free, Okay, cool? Next?
Speaker 1 (40:16):
Yeah, I mean right, I think, but I think a
three man booth would have really helped Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
I mean, what do I know.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
I've just been doing this for a long time.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
So what is some delated deflated football? Oh wow?
Speaker 1 (40:25):
Too soon?
Speaker 2 (40:26):
Too soon? You see him hit the target with that football.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
We'll tell you exactly where one superstar quarterback is going
to play next year. Fox
