Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's a fresh show. This is what's trending.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
That would happened last night, guys, And I know many
people were watching and they were waiting with baited breath.
But Lebron James and his eldest son Bronni became the
first father son duo to take the court together an
NBA history during the Lakers Seatson opener against the Timberwolves.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
LA won the game. There was a moment.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Where Lebron kicked out a pass to Bronny for a
three pointer on the wing and.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
He missed it. Sure did.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
It's sad, but I watched I watched it, I saw
it live, and it's like, I feel like Lebron had
a conversation with the sun before the games. It's like
nothing special here. That cool, right, Yeah, like that cool,
like you belong here, you know, saying to.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Be honest with you, I watched the clip this morning
and I was a little disappointed. Yeah, he was like,
you know what, stop being a hard ass. Like I
get it, I get it. You really are trying to
make him seem like he's not there because of you,
and you want him to have his own thing and what.
And that was his debut in the NBA, and so
you know, I suppose it would be make it about
him a little bit, but he has made it all
(01:02):
about him. Yeah, he's been doing it for since the
kid was born. Basically, it was like, I want to
play with my kid, which is noble and great, so
why not take the moment. His mom was there, everybody
stood up, give.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Him a hug. Yeah, I mean he's like calling plays
on the side. I'm like, No, all he was doing.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Was coaching, Yeah, instead of JJ Reddick, who who everyone knows.
He's not the coach that Bronzi coach. Everybody knows him.
But like, take a second, you know what I mean, Like,
come on, this is a moment. Yeah right, I don't know,
Like you.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
Don't think so because if he if he had done that,
you guys would be mad that he did that.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
No, because I think we're ignoring the obvious, Like we
can no longer pretend this isn't happening for the reason
it's happening, so just embrace it, you.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Know what I mean? No, y'all would have still been mad.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I think that the the guy who loves my dad
and me and the father and Rufio would love to
have seen a moment, like give him a hug.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Oh police, I'm dead serious. I'm dead serious.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Who's the NBA game hugging somebody?
Speaker 1 (02:05):
It's never happened before. It's not a starter. Okay, this
was the second quarter already.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
You would have said the second quarter hugginst somebody.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Honestly, that would have been the most That would have
been the most human thing I've probably ever seen Lebron do,
so like I would have actually would have really liked
to have seen it. Instead, they just pretended like it
wasn't the moment that they've built up for years because.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
They've done They do a lot like when he broke
the scoring title or when anyone breaks any kind of record,
they'll stop the game, they'll have speeches.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
I'm like, dude, hug your son like this is.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
A moment like as.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
A as a father, obviously, like the storyline of this
Lebron and Browny thing, which you.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Would totally do. I would totally do it.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
This is not on Bronnie's time, This is on the
little Yeah, this is on Lebron's time.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Yes, I don't like about it, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
This life thing has always been about Lebron I'll be honest,
it's wildly unfair to.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
His kid, right because he's not ready. That's that's what
we're saying, right, he's not good enough.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
But here's the other thing you got to remember is
he's better than like ninety nine percent of basketball players
in the world. He's just not anywhere near as good
as his father, which nobody would be, which is an
unfair comparison. And he probably shouldn't have made the NBA,
but he did because of his dad, and his dad
was so vocal, and then all of a sudden, now recently,
his dad's like, oh, I don't know, don't talk to
me about this.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
You orchestrated it, own it, and like, don't draft my son.
Like he's going to be drafted by the Lakers, no
one else drafted him. I want to play my son,
like it's all the signs are all there, but it's
like as a as a dad, like to take that
moment like this never happened before.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Can you imagine if if I had a son, and
hold on, let me imagine.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
I know, honestly, I think I'd be a better girl dead,
But anyway, I think I've determined I be's.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Cute I'd be a girl. Then you kill it, you
kill it. I think I've determined.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
No, I've always told the joke that I will if
I ever had a kid, it would be a girl
because that's what I deserve. And the girl will be
like instantly attractive and instantly like ready to make my
life hell in the sweetest possible way. But I mean,
I'm talking about the girl that first develops, that the
girl that first wants to date, the woe that has
a boyfriend before everybody else, you know, the one that
doesn't you know whatever. You know what I'm saying that
(04:08):
there's no way I get off with a boy who
like is an athlete.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
There's no way.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
There's absolutely no way, like just because of the way
I live my life, like I'll just be tortured and
it will be but the biggest blessing of all time.
But like Polly and Gigi and the little girls in
my life, they're beautiful, they're perfect, and I can I'm
not their dad, but I can already tell you that
these girls are going to challenge uncle me. I just
(04:34):
I'm thinking about it now, poly text me give me money.
It's gonna be like Kaylen's sister I.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Don't know mom.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Mom says I can't do this, and I'll be like, okay,
you know, mom says I can't, and I'm like, well,
I don't have any kids, so fine, here's the thousand. No,
I don't know, here's a gazillion dollars.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Don't like I am I'm sending to Kaylan because I'm
not doing it.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Oh no, No.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Until she gets my number, he'll be like, God, text
uncle Fred. He doesn't have anything, so you know he
didn't have anybody, so just text him. I'll give it
to you and I will. Where was that going with
all this?
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Girl?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
But can you imagine if I had a son and
twenty years from now, or if the Greethings are going
another eleven months, I'm like, okay, he's taken over and
I just we just pass each other in the hallway
and I just leave and there's no moment like everybody
would be like how insensitive like this is? That's never
happened before. You know, has a father ever passed it
(05:24):
down to his son? And then the legacy continues And
I'm just like, eh, right, yeah, whatever, kid, go get
it because I'm trying to be a hard ass.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Nobody would like that really honestly, especially if you orchestrated
this whole thing.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
One of my issue with Lebron is that he never
acts like a human being. That's part of my issue
with a guy.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
I know people have the same issue with Beyonce. It's
when you're at a certain level of greatness, you just
can't make everybody happy.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
It's a nepotism. This is one hundred percent nepotism.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Which again I'm over that otism, right.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Yeah, if I knew where to find the guy, I
might have tried to do that that petition.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
It didn't work for me.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I had to do it the old fashioned way. Nonetheless,
it happened, and whatever elevation, and there you go.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
I just has a question.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
I remember, Keiki, when I was talking about this the
other day, you said that he didn't have a choice.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Little Lebron James didn't have a choice.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Yes, so he was forced to play basketball, but I
don't know he was forced.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
But I mean, it wasn't as though this narrative took
its this this whole thing has been orchestrated.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Yeah, I don't like that. I just feel like when
you have a kid and here that great, right, you're
Lebron James.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
You have access to so many resources, Like why couldn't
he just pick what he wanted to do, Like the
kid's good, he wanted to play basketball, then he would
he could have been He's behind because he had that
heart attack whatever was he like you know what I'm saying,
and that really pushed his college career back and then
he should still be in college.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
But heed to leave college, right He's like.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Yeah, my dad's only got his so's like this is
the forget forget it development, forget me getting better and
like I'm going now and I don't know, I don't
know that this is how it would have been drawn
up if he were just not a James. And you know,
he may have had a better chance if they had
done this differently and if there was less attention on him,
because I do feel bad for him in that regard,
(07:13):
Like everyone's looking at everyone knows how it happened. Now
Lebron's trying to make it look like that's not how
it happened. But he did got it, which is why, Like,
you know, they could have done the thing where he
has nothing to do with it and he gets drafted
or doesn't get like Jordan's kid played in Illinois, didn't
he Yeah, he did, and it didn't. It didn't go anywhere.
And I'm sure, I'm sure Jordan could have. You know,
Mike could have orchestrated something, but he did. The kid
(07:37):
just wasn't good enough, and of course he's as good
as his dad. Nobody really made that comparison, and he
didn't go to the NBA and whatever. It just fizzled. Yeah,
that could have happened too, But I don't know. I'm
also not a father, so I don't know what that's like.
I don't know what it's like to watch my kid
not succeed at something.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
But I don't know what's better.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Do you let your kid fail at the thing because
they're maybe not good enough, or do you prop them
up and then people rem because they're not good enough.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I really, as a father, I don't know. I'd like
to think that I would let them. I would try
and help them as much as I could, but also
let them make their own way, and if that means
they fail, then they fail, because that's because otherwise you
don't learn what.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
It's like to fail. But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I don't know what I would do is in like,
if I had a kid and he or she were
really bad at this, I would do I say, like, no,
you're doing it anyway because we've had success, Like I
don't think that's right, because then what have they come
in here in their ninetieth place and it's like, yeah, no,
but you can't you know, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I don't know what the right thing to do is
to be honest anyway. Yeah, here's the McDonald's story. The
CDC has issued a food safety alert regarding multi state
E Coli outbreaks, and they're saying it's linked to the
McDonald's quarter pounder.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
That won't stop me.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
At least forty nine illnesses have been reported across ten states,
including one death. Most of the issues are in Colorado
and Nebraska. I even has stated to do the story
because we're not in Colorado or Nebraska or can Just
or Utah. However, Iowa and some other states were affected
by this as well, so I don't know.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
In other states.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
The quarter pounder burgers may not be available until they
figured this whole thing out. Most people have had it
with daylight savings time. Is there anything more to say
about this than that. However, I don't know. Isn't that
Sunday is for the daylight savings people? Ready, isn't it Sunday? Yea,
so it's two Sundays. It's a week from Sunday. Now,
(09:29):
this is the one that benefits to sleep, right, yeah,
fall back, fall back, So I don't mind that, but
going the other way is miserable.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Oh yeah, no, But like the fall, it's dark. It's
dark at three o'clock, is dark at three four in
the morning. It's the sun never comes out.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
And you gotta realize, as a guy who grew up
in Arizona, this is a wild concept for me. It
took some getting used to it for eighteen years of
my life that the time never changed and mountain time
never changes. It's always the same. We never do any
of that. So what's funny though, is like certain like
if you're watching, if we were watching, for example, before school,
we'd watch WGN on cable what it was on cable,
don't know if it is anymore, and the superstation and
(10:09):
Bozo the Boso Show would go on and we'd watch
it half the year. The other half the year it
was either it already been on or it was gonna
come on because the time changed but ours didn't. So
it was like half the year we could watch certain stuff,
half the year we could. It's very weird, but anyway,
A new poll finds that two and five Americans will
experience daylight saving scaries. By the way, it's daylight saving time,
(10:31):
not daylight saving simon case you're wondering.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
People will still say, I always to add an ass,
I feel.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
Like jewels, right Illinois, Illinoise, we're adding that app you
don't have.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
To North Carolina. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
But a survey of two thousand Americans and people are
always saying that reveal that forty percent feel a sense
of dread when preparing to set their clocks back by
an hour. I don't know this one is less perilous
than the other one for me. But people were tired
of it, and I thought we were working on not
doing it anymore.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Yeah, what happened to that? Not sure? Not sure?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Something else I'm tired of and I'm standing on business
on this. Are we not all tired of the election?
Text messages and the emails?
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Oh my god, I'm getting texts all the time from
all over the place. We're friends it's just.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Like, yo, I don't know you, and I don't know that.
Stop texting me. The best thing you could do if
you want me to vote for you is not to
text me literally at all.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Like it's good. Yea, I got a political text about
Brett Summer. It is like, hey, Calin, Brett Summer's over.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Like, yeah, some campaign trying a little too hard to
be cool and it's not cool.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Okay, yeah, it's a little while.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Actually, if you look at where the especially towards the
end as the election is less than two weeks away,
where the candidates are trying to go to get attention,
like you know, certain pop culture podcasts and stuff like that,
places that you wouldn't expect political candidates or that they
wouldn't have gone even in the last election. It's like,
I'm not making fun of or picking on anybody, but
(12:03):
you know, barstool, you got political candidates going to you know,
podcasts to talk about mouth hugs and stuff like that.
I mean, well, because that's where the audience is, right,
but it's just not something you ever would have expected
a decade ago or even in the last election. But
people are tired of the text message campaign. It's almost
over guys, and Chicago has top ORGANS list again for
(12:26):
the tenth straight year as the radiest city in America.
According to the Past Control Service, New York is the
state with the most cities in ORCANS top fifty list,
which is five, but Chicago, LA, New York, San Francisco, DC, Denver, Philly, Detroit, Baltimore,
and Cleveland the top ten rattiest cities in the nation.
(12:48):
In case you're wondering, It's National Horror Movie Day, National
Boston Cream Pie Day, National TV talk show host Day,
what about Radio Hell, National Medical Assistance Recognition Dame, And
It's National iPod Day. The first iPod was sold November
tenth of two thousand and one, four three hundred and
ninety nine dollars in case you were wondering, And it
(13:10):
was the size and the weight of a brick, and
I still had one, and I thought it was cool.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
You know, you still had the box, a little scrolly
wheel thing.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I probably still have the box somewhere because for some reason,
I was taught never to throw the box away. And
they spent twenty years a cable. Someday they ain't taking
it back. They ain't taken it back now. So if
you open my cabinets, I have boxes from like iPads
eight eight generations ago. I'm like, why why, I don't
even have the device any longer.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
That's a weird thing. You're right, yeah, to keep the box. Yep,
what if it's broken. It resonates in my head forever.
The Entertainer Report will do it next. In two minutes.
We'll get the blogs out today.
