the ho hokum. Well, I think it's or it's Sloan,
Sloan and now Holm. I believe that is the game
they won, right, I don't know. I feel like we

Speaker 4 (01:56):
They're working with the Chargers for the NFL combine and
we'll have more on that later and as far as
our schedule goes today, Matt, we have a four hour
show Tomorrow is a flex alert, and we had to
do some scrambling because we were teased almost to the
(02:18):
point of no return with our friend mc cronin, the
great Irishman, the greatest coach in the history.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Of college basketball, no doubt about it.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
We were teased almost like Latimer in the program. So
we've had to make a pivot a late pivot, which
Tim Kats does not.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Like, although he does it's very frustrated.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
But he's got Xavier McDaniel like moves in the low post.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Oh, I thought you were about to say he's got
us Xavier McDaniel. That sweet go.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
I would absolutely die. That would be the greatest thing
that ever happened. But no, we don't have that. But
we do have a basketball guests this hour and vassa
next hour and the Bats will report and combine.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Do we have the basketball guest yet or is that
still a fill an efforting situation. It's Boo Boo, that's
a big one. The Mavericks are in town. He covers
the Lakers athletic and he's got a pod all the.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
Live shots in front of Crypto right now. Everybody's excited
about this game.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Everybody's really excessed. So that's why we're going to talk
to Booha perfect. And you know, Matt, I know it's
a late night for you out there, and I know
that you could be feeling a little lonely. You know,
even though you have all your friends DJ and all
your Charger friends, it's not the same has great sports.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Talk, Great sports talk.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Not the same for four hours of great sports talk,
taking me until ten pm. Right, and uh, you know,
in order to do that, we have to be together.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
We have to be.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
Inclusive, Indigenous people of color a.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Little Well, that's a reason right out the gate, I'm
gonna have to do this.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Gay bye first of all. Minutes later O.
Speaker 6 (04:07):
Lesbian, gay bye, transgender clear Asian American Pacific Islander, Asian
American Pacific Islander, Latino, Hispanic Romaney and Creole, Latino Hispanic
(04:28):
Romney and Creole. We all the place in this world.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
One more time, girl, We all have a place in
this world.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Now I went a little left out. I'll be honest
with you.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Well, I mean I would say that. Well, I'm glad
you said that, Matt, because I would say that song
is good.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
It's good.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
If we liked that song, it carried us pretty far.
But what we need because you're out there late at night, Matt,
you got to wake up early. You know. I don't
like to get up super late. Uh and do the
show when it's dark and all that. I hate it,
you know that, Matt. So it's hard. It's hard to
bring the energy, you know what I'm saying. Uh, you're
all alone in that hotel room in your underwear, looking
(05:16):
at the pigeons, and I found a new song of
inclusivity that brings a little energy. Now it's not as long,
but you tell me what you think.
Speaker 7 (05:27):
Energy energy, energy energy.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
And then she's done. Oh he or they I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
They have energy, energy energy.
Speaker 7 (05:48):
Energy, energy energy.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I love it. No, I have energy. Right, that's that
reminds me of our days playing the Go team, right
the show started. You know, get a little little bounce
in our step.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
Energy energy, let's go.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
I'll f g. That's luck. That better than the all
inclusive song. I mean, there's been a couple of other ones.
There's been a which side are you on?
Speaker 4 (06:27):
Recently they came out like a like a like a
like an old civil rights song, but they they retooled
it to attack doge, Which side are you on?
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Both sides? You all on both sides to lose?
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Well, there's that one, and then there's another one that
was based on when the Saints go marching in about
black women leading the way. But those ones were a
little I mean, I don't know they were. They were
a little too politically pointed. This one energy stopping real fect,
Like honestly, I think if you played this for the
(07:04):
guys in the tunnel getting ready to do their combine,
you know.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
I mean, we're a.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Little lady for the forties and the drill. Last year,
Caleb would have really loved this. But let's get going again.
Speaker 7 (07:17):
Energy energy energy, all right, let's go the running backs, linebackers,
crossover drill right.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Now, like the callback, right, respot love it?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
They damn energy.
Speaker 7 (07:40):
Energy energy, energy energy.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
I could run through a wall.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
I could too that that person, that person and I'm
thinking it's a it's a lady or uh in the
somebody in the form of a woman is uh. I
would say the shape of a of a freshman team
guard bringing that they them energy and uh even like
(08:12):
an old school defense where you had guards and tackles,
like just lined up over the guards like a bear
defense with that vay them energy coming off the ball
and a bare crawl. You like that column?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Oh you don't like it? Huh, yeah, of course he is.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
I'm just saying, that's a pretty quick show, and there's
there's obviously a lot of people there, like if that's
all the show is, we're gonna have to talk to
the promoter. I love it because you're gonna have to
come with more. I mean, there's a lot of energy there,
but it's not an elongated song of inclusion like the
first one that we played, which are Creoles and the
Pacific Islanders.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, but she left out the Jews, which I take
offense to. Well, Matt, you know, and that's my big
problem with that song.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
I get it. I understand.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
There's a reason we have a big Galgadole poster up
in here. You love the Israel right.
Speaker 6 (09:10):
The place in this world'st me up.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Energy high am to life.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
There we can see there you go, Matt. See it's
written in between the line on both of those songs.
It's written in between the lines that the voice of
the Chargers has recently found out that he's twenty five
percent suy. It's written in the wind.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Did I tell you? My brother and I had a
pen contest over it when I was with him on Saturday.
It's like, hey, then you say you just did the
twenty three and me is like, yeah, he is, what
percentage are you? And what percentage are you? Said? I'm nineteen,
I said twenty two and a half. How do you
like that I'm a bigger Jew than you, Kevin. I'm
a bigger Jew than you, Kevin. The biggest Jew dumb Bash.
(10:01):
There's the biggest Jew in family.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
I am fly, I am twenty two and a half baby. Well,
here's your go team, Matt. Bring that Vedam energy from
the night time in Indianapolis. Petcha Somebody show Live in

Speaker 4 (11:01):
All right, Matt, it is time to bust a rhyme
with the Lakers. Big game tonight, and that's why Jovann
Booja is our guests from Spectrum Sportsnet and the athletic
Mavericks are in town. Of course, Anthony Davis only has
one groin, but Luka, Doncic and Lebron looks like they
(11:21):
had it figured out the other night in Denver. Here
to discuss it all and with maybe a less negative perspective,
is our friend Booja on your Southern California Toyo to
do a celebrity hotline? What's cracking Bouja? Is it already
exciting out there at the Crypto?
Speaker 3 (11:40):
It is?
Speaker 8 (11:42):
I heard that there is an insane amount of media
going to be in town, from all the national media,
all the Dallas media, So it's going to be, honestly
adding similar to Luca's debut, where it's going to feel
like a playoff atmosphere.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
How big of a deal do you think the Denver
game was for Luca on just the fact that he
can have a signature contest before the Mavericks come to town.
Speaker 8 (12:07):
It was huge, And you know, JJ talked about it
before the game that he wanted him to have a
blackout episode. Luca just got is talking to himself and
firing himself up, and he had multiple of he picked
up a technical foul right before halftime. He was jawing
with the Nuggets bench, he was jawing with the Nuggets crowd.
(12:28):
He was gesturing after making three pointers. So he looked
like the Luca of old. I think some people were
a little too overreactionary to his first three games and
just assuming that he was completely out of shape or
forgot how to play basketball. So I think it was
important for him on an individual level, but also for
this group, especially that matchup. Denver had won thirteen of
(12:51):
fourteen against LA. They had won eight straight in Denver,
So to beat that team, to slay the Denver Dragon
and do so so convincing and with them just having
no answer for Luca, I think for LA gave them
a big boost of confidence. And now they get to
fall set up with another emotional game against Dallas.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
This stuff can be kind of pendulous, right it goes,
it goes up and down. I mean, ever since this
trade happened, you know, you had another trade go south,
you had the fury of connect and I mean it's
been a real roller coaster that you've been riding. And
we're so focused on the Lakers. Of course, because we're
here in La. Why wouldn't we be. But just from
(13:32):
a Dallas perspective, Boja, since you know it so well
and now that Ad is hurt and just the negativity
surrounding that situation, this could not have gone worse for
them since this trade happened. Am I wrong to say so?
Speaker 8 (13:46):
I mean, I think the lone silver lining for them
is they have a winning record since the trade and
they've continued to remain in the playoffs slash plan Hunt.
But to your point, like they talk about Luca's weight
and conditioning and you know that they they go trade
for Anthony Davis, who, for as great as he is,
(14:08):
obviously has his injury track record and was currently injured
at the time.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (14:14):
And then you know adds up returning and Plague and
that gets injured in that you know, reaggravates the injury
in that game. So it's like Dallas just can't catch
any breaks and and a lot of it's self inflicted.
Like I don't know if you guys saw the hype
video that they put out where they just blur out
Luca dodgicch and Maverick's logo on his face. It's like
(14:36):
like they're acting like Luca demanded out and like disrespected
the franchise that they're treating him with, Like they're you know,
they're they're throwing dirt on his name any chance they
get that. They've slammed him in multiple interviews, and then
they have that hype video come out and it's like that,
you know that they've taken him down all around the
arena and like it's just like they've tried to erase
(14:57):
at worst, the second best player in franchise, his like
from existing. And it's just been a very odd move
of missteps from Dallas.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Their loss is certainly the Lakers gain, especially if if
the Denver contest is a sign of things to come.
The one interesting thing that's kind of come out of this,
it feels like, is and tell me if you would
agree with this or why you think it might be
the case. Boja Reddick was a punching bag for a while.
(15:29):
He was they were really piling on him, and now
it feels as though people are starting to take up
for him that they like the way this team has
come together, the way they're playing defense. Like what have
you noticed that might lead to the national media now
taking that position when they were all too ready to
pile on a guy that's, you know, to be honest,
pretty arrogant, and pretty condescending.
Speaker 8 (15:52):
Well, as you mentioned earlier, like the pendulous swing, I
think we've seen it swing decidedly in the lakers favor
over the past month. The Lakers have a fourteen and
four record since January fifteenth, which is the best record
in the NBA. Over that span, they have the best defense,
as best offense, and a top three in net rating,
(16:13):
So like for over a month now, and that includes
eighty playing in part of that eighty not playing at
all in part of it then you know, pre Luca trade,
post Luca trade. So like, they've gone through various iterations
of this group over the past month, and despite who's
been in and out of the lineup, they beat the Celtics,
they beat the Warriors a couple of times, they beat
(16:35):
the Clippers, they beat the Knicks, they just beat the Nugget.
So it's like every signature game that they've had over
the past month, they've won. And really the only three
lines have been Lebron, James Anthony, I mean, Austin Reeves,
and JJ Redick. Like everything else has been fluctuating role players.
Luco some games eighty some other games. So it's like
(16:58):
I think, of course, Lebron and Austin are at the
you know, the head of the snake, and they deserve
a lot of credit for performing the way they performed.
But JJ Reddick has out coached some of the best
coaches in the MBA Steve Kerr and Joe Missoula and
Michael Malone, and like he has come up with game plans,
like he said before the Denver game, he did not
sleep for almost two days in anticipation and watching film
(17:21):
and game planning. And it wasn't just lip service because
they came out and held Nikolajokic to one of his
worst performances since he's become Nikola Jokich. He only took
seven shots, it was tied for a season low. He
had six turnovers. Like they really shut him down in
a way they never had before. So it wasn't like
JJ was just up there saying stuff like he delivered
(17:42):
with the game plan and with this group spy in
So I think the biggest thing has just been them
playing harder and then buying into his game plan. And
that's the thing you hear from the players after every
game is like, we just went out there and we
tried to execute the game plan. And I know it
sounds simple, it sounds basic, it sounds obvious, but that
was not happening under the previous coaching regimes, and that
(18:03):
was not happening even earlier this season. So since I think,
really since the La wildfires, that was kind of a
rallying moment for this group that they lost three straight
at that point, I called it the Texas massacre because
they got blown out by the three Texas teams. And
then from that point, right, what about this a lot better?
I mean, booha, what about all those people that died
(18:25):
in the movie. I mean, that's kind of insensitive. Well
it's it's it's tuggets check.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
I would know. It wasn't tongue in cheek. It was literal.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
They took those people took a chain.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
So I did right the old man with the little
hammers I had pounded away with that skull. What about
kind of the conversation after the Luca trade, E future,
don't get too excited about this year. Maybe it's a
slight step back before you can take that step forward.
Then they trade for Mark Williams and like, oh, you
know what, maybe got a big in here now then
that gets rescinded like it's it's exciting. You talked about
(18:58):
the numbers in a seven game series. Do you think
they have enough?
Speaker 3 (19:04):
I do.
Speaker 8 (19:05):
I think that this group as constructed, has a real
shot to make the conference finals. I think that Oklahoma City,
to me, reminds me of Boston last year, where because
of the youth and the inexperience and not having done
it before, people are overlooking how dominant they've been. So
I think OKAC is on their own tier in the West.
(19:26):
They should be solid favorites to come out of the conference.
But outside of Oka, see after seeing the way like,
I don't think it was a fluke, the way that
they beat Denver. Denver could not guard them like it
just changes the complexion of this group. Having Luka Dantic
out there, they can't put Aaron Gordon on Luca and Lebron,
and they were primarily putting him on Lebron. Then they
(19:47):
tried to switch him on to Luca and Luca was
still cooking him so it didn't matter. So I think
that the Denver matchup, what was the one thorn in
the Lakers side for the last couple of years. I
do think that that has changed with the Luke audition,
and he's historically dominated them and played really well against them.
So I think Denver is no longer the clear like
(20:08):
favorite in that series. I think it's probably closer to
fifty to fifty and then the rest of the West,
like put them up against Houston or Memphis, or the
Clippers or even the Warriors. The Warriors they've had a
lot of success against over the last few years. But
we'll see what it looks like with Jimmy. But I
think the Lakers have you know, basically any team in
the West head to head right now outside of OKC.
(20:29):
I would probably pick them in a you know, six
or seven games, maybe depending on the team, but I
think I would I would pick the Lakers like you
don't want to see Luca Lebron in a playoff series.
I think those are two some stars play worse than
the playoffs. Those two guys always play better in the
playoffs if you look at their numbers. Those guys are
big time performers, and I think them being able to
problem solve against a Houston, a Memphis or whatever team
(20:52):
you want to match them up with in Round one
I think they will figure out a way to get
it done.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
I mean they used to say you don't want to
see Lebron and Anthony Davis in the playoffs, but now
it's a different talking point.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
But I.
Speaker 8 (21:06):
And a better playoff performer.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
Well whatever, I mean, wait till you see Anthony Davis tonight.
All right, he's gonna take it to you.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
He's he's remember he's got that son of a bitch
fell over and like grabbed his balls.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
Oh no, I didn't know that. Uh, it's but let's
say the Lakers end up losing tonight, Like it's not
like an upswing. What are we gonna do? But it
was the game in Denver? Still that telling of the
future or or everything goes straight to hell and you
start coming up with other horror movies to you already
did the Texas cos on massacre. I don't know what
(21:44):
you'll do.
Speaker 8 (21:45):
I can only speak for myself because I know if
the Lakers lose tonight, we know the shows that tomorrow
are going to overreact and say it's doomsday and that
Luca Lebron, are you trying to.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Talk about us? Are you trying to Is that a no?
Speaker 8 (22:01):
You guys got a job to do, but we know
there's going to be overreactions in either direction, like the
next time they lose, there will be regardless of one
it is. The Lakers have a brutal that they have
the toughest schedule in the month in the NBA for
the next month. Like if you look at it, it's
just like good team after good team after good team,
a bunch of back to backs, a couple of road trips.
It's a really tough schedule. So they're gonna have some
(22:24):
struggles in the near future. But I think that the
Denver win and just the way that they've been playing
over the past month, I'm keeping the big picture perspective
of I think this team is really trending in the
right direction. They are saying all the right things, they
are delivering on the floor. I think Lebron has been
awesome for two months now, like people aren't really talking
(22:44):
about him and that like all NBA first or second
team discussion. He's locked in defensively, like his defense the
first two months for the versus the last two months,
it's been night and day in terms of how engaged
she's been ensure there's the occasional possession or stretch where
he's not good. But like for a four year old
with the most mileage in NBA history, like he has
(23:05):
been pretty good defensively. It was really good defensively in
that Denver game. So you had that Luca getting acclimated.
JJ coaching has butt off. I think this group has
a very high ceiling, and I would have be surprised
if they pushed for the two or three seed down
the stretch here.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Love it. The only thing I would do is reach
out to Andrew Boget see if he wants to retire.
It's got a big in there. We appreciate it.
Speaker 8 (23:28):
Dwight's still there right there.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
You go, Yeah, reach out to Dwight. He's ready to play.
Get that sweet meat out here in a Laker uniform.
We appreciate. Have fun out there against all the other
media that are in town tonight.
Speaker 8 (23:40):
I well got a lot of jostling tonight, a.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Lot of joscelying it's going to be a jossling. The
other way I thought Dwight Howard wasn't there. What do
you mean to a jostling? Sweet meat?
Speaker 3 (23:56):
That was hard to hear.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Well, get on. The Lakers are good again. It's Luca Man.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
Yeah, this overreaction.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
It's such a hate exactly right.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
Hey, look I remember when they beat the Golden State
Warriors and Byron Scott had.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
The key, He had the key.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Stupid. We got a big, blockheaded white Eastern European Baltic superstar.
It's just like watching the blockheads on Gumby skate around it. Well,
if it was.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
Like that, it'd be a different it'd be a whole
different story.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
He's like one of the blockheads out there.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Well, we'll have some reaction.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Imagine that we just don't know about yet. Oh, the
don Chiz brothers, the brothers. Jokic quite certainly has the
brothers Doncic that just start roughing people up in the stands.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
I'm quite certain we'd have been introduced to this point.
Maybe we don't know Luca's brothers because they're rob being
all the athletes while.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
They that's a great possibility.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Somebody's doing it. We'll be back with more. We'll have
some reaction with some text dosos next.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Not trust some money, think thank you to you. B Buham.
Gonna be out there for the Laker maverige scheme tonight,
said a lot of national media covering this one time,
Luca will face his former team. We however, tomorrow will
have the Clippers versus Bolls.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
We're coming with day the Energy tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Giving us a two to four pm flex alert.
Speaker 7 (25:37):
Show Energy Energy.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
All right, it is time for some text.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
Do So's a reaction to that interview was ow positive reaction, Man, secret.

Speaker 3 (26:06):
We make it easy.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
Reading Booha washing the King's balls is a slap in
the face to us the listener. Oh, you hoes have
sold out softer than gob on a Phoenix driveway in
July week.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Whatever, dude, I got datam energy, I don't need yours.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
I'm trying to inject it into you that it's going
to be a long.
Speaker 7 (26:31):
Run Energy Energy Energy.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Some people equated the lack of a launching pad to
Booja being on the show, basically saying we traded Booha
or is he? And the truth is that's not the truth,
because we traded Booha for Mick cronin.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Corona was supposed to be on that was that was
scheduled throughout the Boo I was allayed to add, you
guys appreciate him for doing Absolutely, you guys don't put
izzy on, but you do this shill Jesus just play that.
They then clip for ten minutes next time. Hey, we
can do all of this. I mean, I mean, we
don't have to be you know, listen, as she said,
(27:19):
the team is fourteen and four, like we at some
point they're fourteen and four, number one net defense and
number eight net off.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
Was what did you get the net involved? Man?
Speaker 2 (27:30):
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
We were fishing.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
He's just a hater, man, that's all it is.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Listen, we're gonna pile on when they deserve to be
piled on, when they're when they're fourteen and four over
the last eighteen the hell you want?
Speaker 3 (27:53):
What I wanted was cronin.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
If there's no if there's no launch pad today, I
will protest having to listen to this stupid spring batting
practice is like corporal punishment. So that guy's complaining about
the Dodgers. So not everybody's happy, you know. I see
what you mean, Matt. I see this stuff.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Every day I have. I don't want to make anybody happy.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
White men and rednecks and douchebags and a holes, white
men and rednecks, douchebags and a holes, White men and
rednex douchebags and a holes.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
We all have the place in this world. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
That is that the description of our showales. I think
it's pretty accurate.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
They need to do an inclusivity song for all the
different types of homeless addicts, black tar heroine, tweakers and drunkards,
black car in tweakers and drunkards.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
We all have a play, but not for long.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Oh come on, what nobody knows what's gonna happen anymorey No,
I kind of have a pretty good idea though. If
it's black Tar heroine, I kind of have an idea.
Speaker 4 (29:18):
I said, you need to tell me the Lakers are
gonna win tonight against that beat up Dallas tea.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
I feel like it's also certainty.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
I thought the official song that Petroson money was the
Jello Ball song that I must say what I want
to know and I say what I know. He wrote
this down, I'm gonna say what I want to know.
I'm gonna say what I know, and I say what
I know. I'm gonna know what I say I know
and a again, Matt more Anger, w tf is this
(29:48):
time wasting. Where is the g damn launch pad? Did
I heart cut the Lizzy? Butzzy budget too?
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Is he was free?
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (29:58):
Listen, guys, there's a ended late, not early, That's what
I'm saying. Like there's a lot of people. Some guy
even sent me a text making like Isabelle's name, like
you know, playing with the space bar. So it was
like a huge, gigantic text. But all it's spelled out
in capital letters was Izzy.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (30:17):
Very popular And we haven't talked to Izzy in months
and months and she's champion at the bit. She's quote
unquote dying to talk Dodgers and we'd love to put
her on, but we can't launch. Well, Matt, to be fair,
you wanted Rogan and Rodney to do an eight minute
(30:38):
show today.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
That's fair point, right, But that's that's not because I
don't want to launch.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
The next time this happens, maybe we cut Rogan and
Rodney loose. Maybe the Dodgers won't give up twelve runs
and actually have a game that ends before three hours,
and then we can get Izzy on. But if we
start after the top of the hour, that's not a law.
Much bad time, guys, it's not you can't you can't
launch at that time. That that that, like Matt said
(31:05):
that the weather conditions are not agreeable to it, and
we're safety We're safety first, you know. We we have
great air traffic control. Here at the Patterson Money Show.
Speaker 5 (31:16):
It was looking good though too.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
Guys.
Speaker 5 (31:17):
There was a ninth inning that was gonna get over
until they had a pitching change and seven different Dodger
hitters went to the plate in the bottom of the night.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
Well, now, is he has texted I understand why you
can't put me on.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
No.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
No, I don't think you do. No, it's scheduling wise,
is he. We want them to do the launch pad,
We're gonna have Colin's gonna be vic and we're gonna launch.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
We just it just hasn't worked.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
I want to launch. I really want to launch. I just, man,
it's it's painful to think that we would cut them
loose and they're not just sitting there looking at their watches.
I have to do like an eleven minute show. Don't
they feel it's made me great joy? Isn't it uncomfortable
enough for them just to have to be on standby? Yeah,
(32:01):
but That's what I'm saying, Like, if you tell them, Hey, guys,
we're gonna cut you lute. Don't even worry about it.
Whenever the game ends, we're gonna do this launch pad thing.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
Well, I mean, let's say the launch pad's gonna be
eight minutes and we tell them, yeah, we're gonna do it,
don't worry.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
We so we don't have to tell them until like
two forty pm, Like, hey, you know what, guys, it's
gonna be like ten minutes.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
You're good, go ahead, Like you want to upset the
Show before Us, but also give Isabelle her flowers exactly,
And it's not easy to do both.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
No, you know what I mean, I want to thread
that needle. That's the needle.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
That's like praising the Lakers and not praising Lebron. It's
not easy, Yeah, to do both. I don't want to
praise anything. Lebron's got involvement in, got his fingers in,
you know what I mean. I don't picked perfect case
scenario for me flowers. It's like the Show before Us
is freaking out because they're trying to dial in and
(32:52):
like the lines are blocked, and then like Ronnie just
like sends them a text like don't.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
Worry about it. Petro said, money, you're you gonna take
it from here. That's best case scenario for me. And
they freak out when you see that text.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Like their puzzo's hard and they're ready to come out
and perform, and we go, no, Diggler's good, he's gonna
do it.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
I think it's more about ruining their day. You want
them to go to lunch. I have to leave early
racing at home or wherever they do their show from now.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
We're talking and launch, no, no, we don't need you
after all, like set up a bitch. And then they
tune in and they hear Izzy and Colin having a
conversation with one another, like that's excuse me, that is
peak happiness.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
Well, I hope, I hope we get him at lunch. Right.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
We gotta get him at a lunch somewhere, right. We
got to be barking at the server. Listen, I need
my check now. And then they all ass home and
the flight's been deleted.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
Nop, you're good, this has been scheduled. Talk everybody wants
to schedule the show.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
Damn I'm petty.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
I mean yeah, Matt, I mean I just got lectured
on my leg. Your pettiness, but.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
My pettiness is personal.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
Excellent.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
They had to wait hours, Matt, they were their day
was ruined. They both have indigestion.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Excellent.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
My head's gonna hit the pillow and sleep to night
like a bell.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
I feel so good.

And they yeah, they did win one, all right one.
I think they won the away game right, took like
thirty l's though they did. They won the game at
(01:12):
the ho hokum. Well, I think it's or it's Sloan,
Sloan and now Holm. I believe that is the game
they won, right, I don't know. I feel like we
followed a victory.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
I think no, everything we've followed has been a loser.
But I guess it doesn't matter either way. The Dodgers
are done and we are here. It is a two
at Mono, two to two at Mono. Tuesday, Matts in Indianapolis,
Pigeons down on Market Square. We will have a four
(01:45):
hour show that I am out underwear. Yeah, looking down
from your hotel room and nightfall is almost upon you. Matt,
six fifteen Local time in Indianapolis.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Matt's.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
They're working with the Chargers for the NFL combine and
we'll have more on that later and as far as
our schedule goes today, Matt, we have a four hour
show Tomorrow is a flex alert, and we had to
do some scrambling because we were teased almost to the
(02:18):
point of no return with our friend mc cronin, the
great Irishman, the greatest coach in the history.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Of college basketball, no doubt about it.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
We were teased almost like Latimer in the program. So
we've had to make a pivot a late pivot, which
Tim Kats does not.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Like, although he does it's very frustrated.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
But he's got Xavier McDaniel like moves in the low post.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Oh, I thought you were about to say he's got
us Xavier McDaniel. That sweet go.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
I would absolutely die. That would be the greatest thing
that ever happened. But no, we don't have that. But
we do have a basketball guests this hour and vassa
next hour and the Bats will report and combine.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Do we have the basketball guest yet or is that
still a fill an efforting situation. It's Boo Boo, that's
a big one. The Mavericks are in town. He covers
the Lakers athletic and he's got a pod all the.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
Live shots in front of Crypto right now. Everybody's excited
about this game.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Everybody's really excessed. So that's why we're going to talk
to Booha perfect. And you know, Matt, I know it's
a late night for you out there, and I know
that you could be feeling a little lonely. You know,
even though you have all your friends DJ and all
your Charger friends, it's not the same has great sports.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Talk, Great sports talk.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Not the same for four hours of great sports talk,
taking me until ten pm. Right, and uh, you know,
in order to do that, we have to be together.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
We have to be.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
Inclusive, Indigenous people of color a.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Little Well, that's a reason right out the gate, I'm
gonna have to do this.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Gay bye first of all. Minutes later O.

Romney and Creole. We all the place in this world.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
One more time, girl, We all have a place in
this world.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Now I went a little left out. I'll be honest
with you.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Well, I mean I would say that. Well, I'm glad
you said that, Matt, because I would say that song
is good.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
It's good.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
If we liked that song, it carried us pretty far.
But what we need because you're out there late at night, Matt,
you got to wake up early. You know. I don't
like to get up super late. Uh and do the
show when it's dark and all that. I hate it,
you know that, Matt. So it's hard. It's hard to
bring the energy, you know what I'm saying. Uh, you're
all alone in that hotel room in your underwear, looking
(05:16):
at the pigeons, and I found a new song of
inclusivity that brings a little energy. Now it's not as long,
but you tell me what you think.
Speaker 7 (05:27):
Energy energy, energy energy.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
And then she's done. Oh he or they I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
They have energy, energy energy.
Speaker 7 (05:48):
Energy, energy energy.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I love it. No, I have energy. Right, that's that
reminds me of our days playing the Go team, right
the show started. You know, get a little little bounce
in our step.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
Energy energy, let's go.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
I'll f g. That's luck. That better than the all
inclusive song. I mean, there's been a couple of other ones.
There's been a which side are you on?
Speaker 4 (06:27):
Recently they came out like a like a like a
like an old civil rights song, but they they retooled
it to attack doge, Which side are you on?
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Both sides? You all on both sides to lose?
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Well, there's that one, and then there's another one that
was based on when the Saints go marching in about
black women leading the way. But those ones were a
little I mean, I don't know they were. They were
a little too politically pointed. This one energy stopping real fect,
Like honestly, I think if you played this for the
(07:04):
guys in the tunnel getting ready to do their combine,
you know.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
I mean, we're a.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Little lady for the forties and the drill. Last year,
Caleb would have really loved this. But let's get going again.
Speaker 7 (07:17):
Energy energy energy, all right, let's go the running backs, linebackers,
crossover drill right.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Now, like the callback, right, respot love it?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
They damn energy.
Speaker 7 (07:40):
Energy energy, energy energy.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
I could run through a wall.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
I could too that that person, that person and I'm
thinking it's a it's a lady or uh in the
somebody in the form of a woman is uh. I
would say the shape of a of a freshman team
guard bringing that they them energy and uh even like
(08:12):
an old school defense where you had guards and tackles,
like just lined up over the guards like a bear
defense with that vay them energy coming off the ball
and a bare crawl. You like that column?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Oh you don't like it? Huh, yeah, of course he is.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
I'm just saying, that's a pretty quick show, and there's
there's obviously a lot of people there, like if that's
all the show is, we're gonna have to talk to
the promoter. I love it because you're gonna have to
come with more. I mean, there's a lot of energy there,
but it's not an elongated song of inclusion like the
first one that we played, which are Creoles and the
Pacific Islanders.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, but she left out the Jews, which I take
offense to. Well, Matt, you know, and that's my big
problem with that song.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
I get it. I understand.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
There's a reason we have a big Galgadole poster up
in here. You love the Israel right.
Speaker 6 (09:10):
The place in this world'st me up.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Energy high am to life.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
There we can see there you go, Matt. See it's
written in between the line on both of those songs.
It's written in between the lines that the voice of
the Chargers has recently found out that he's twenty five
percent suy. It's written in the wind.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Did I tell you? My brother and I had a
pen contest over it when I was with him on Saturday.
It's like, hey, then you say you just did the
twenty three and me is like, yeah, he is, what
percentage are you? And what percentage are you? Said? I'm nineteen,
I said twenty two and a half. How do you
like that I'm a bigger Jew than you, Kevin. I'm
a bigger Jew than you, Kevin. The biggest Jew dumb Bash.
(10:01):
There's the biggest Jew in family.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
I am fly, I am twenty two and a half baby. Well,

Speaker 4 (11:01):
All right, Matt, it is time to bust a rhyme
with the Lakers. Big game tonight, and that's why Jovann
Booja is our guests from Spectrum Sportsnet and the athletic
Mavericks are in town. Of course, Anthony Davis only has
one groin, but Luka, Doncic and Lebron looks like they
(11:21):
had it figured out the other night in Denver. Here
to discuss it all and with maybe a less negative perspective,
is our friend Booja on your Southern California Toyo to
do a celebrity hotline? What's cracking Bouja? Is it already
exciting out there at the Crypto?
Speaker 3 (11:40):
It is?
Speaker 8 (11:42):
I heard that there is an insane amount of media
going to be in town, from all the national media,
all the Dallas media, So it's going to be, honestly
adding similar to Luca's debut, where it's going to feel
like a playoff atmosphere.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
How big of a deal do you think the Denver
game was for Luca on just the fact that he
can have a signature contest before the Mavericks come to town.
Speaker 8 (12:07):
It was huge, And you know, JJ talked about it
before the game that he wanted him to have a
blackout episode. Luca just got is talking to himself and
firing himself up, and he had multiple of he picked
up a technical foul right before halftime. He was jawing
with the Nuggets bench, he was jawing with the Nuggets crowd.
(12:28):
He was gesturing after making three pointers. So he looked
like the Luca of old. I think some people were
a little too overreactionary to his first three games and
just assuming that he was completely out of shape or
forgot how to play basketball. So I think it was
important for him on an individual level, but also for
this group, especially that matchup. Denver had won thirteen of
(12:51):
fourteen against LA. They had won eight straight in Denver,
So to beat that team, to slay the Denver Dragon
and do so so convincing and with them just having
no answer for Luca, I think for LA gave them
a big boost of confidence. And now they get to
fall set up with another emotional game against Dallas.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
This stuff can be kind of pendulous, right it goes,
it goes up and down. I mean, ever since this
trade happened, you know, you had another trade go south,
you had the fury of connect and I mean it's
been a real roller coaster that you've been riding. And
we're so focused on the Lakers. Of course, because we're
here in La. Why wouldn't we be. But just from
(13:32):
a Dallas perspective, Boja, since you know it so well
and now that Ad is hurt and just the negativity
surrounding that situation, this could not have gone worse for
them since this trade happened. Am I wrong to say so?
Speaker 8 (13:46):
I mean, I think the lone silver lining for them
is they have a winning record since the trade and
they've continued to remain in the playoffs slash plan Hunt.
But to your point, like they talk about Luca's weight
and conditioning and you know that they they go trade
for Anthony Davis, who, for as great as he is,
(14:08):
obviously has his injury track record and was currently injured
at the time.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (14:14):
And then you know adds up returning and Plague and
that gets injured in that you know, reaggravates the injury
in that game. So it's like Dallas just can't catch
any breaks and and a lot of it's self inflicted.
Like I don't know if you guys saw the hype
video that they put out where they just blur out
Luca dodgicch and Maverick's logo on his face. It's like
(14:36):
like they're acting like Luca demanded out and like disrespected
the franchise that they're treating him with, Like they're you know,
they're they're throwing dirt on his name any chance they
get that. They've slammed him in multiple interviews, and then
they have that hype video come out and it's like that,
you know that they've taken him down all around the
arena and like it's just like they've tried to erase
(14:57):
at worst, the second best player in franchise, his like
from existing. And it's just been a very odd move
of missteps from Dallas.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Their loss is certainly the Lakers gain, especially if if
the Denver contest is a sign of things to come.
The one interesting thing that's kind of come out of this,
it feels like, is and tell me if you would
agree with this or why you think it might be
the case. Boja Reddick was a punching bag for a while.
(15:29):
He was they were really piling on him, and now
it feels as though people are starting to take up
for him that they like the way this team has
come together, the way they're playing defense. Like what have
you noticed that might lead to the national media now
taking that position when they were all too ready to
pile on a guy that's, you know, to be honest,
pretty arrogant, and pretty condescending.
Speaker 8 (15:52):
Well, as you mentioned earlier, like the pendulous swing, I
think we've seen it swing decidedly in the lakers favor
over the past month. The Lakers have a fourteen and
four record since January fifteenth, which is the best record
in the NBA. Over that span, they have the best defense,
as best offense, and a top three in net rating,
(16:13):
So like for over a month now, and that includes
eighty playing in part of that eighty not playing at
all in part of it then you know, pre Luca trade,
post Luca trade. So like, they've gone through various iterations
of this group over the past month, and despite who's
been in and out of the lineup, they beat the Celtics,
they beat the Warriors a couple of times, they beat
(16:35):
the Clippers, they beat the Knicks, they just beat the Nugget.
So it's like every signature game that they've had over
the past month, they've won. And really the only three
lines have been Lebron, James Anthony, I mean, Austin Reeves,
and JJ Redick. Like everything else has been fluctuating role players.
Luco some games eighty some other games. So it's like
(16:58):
I think, of course, Lebron and Austin are at the
you know, the head of the snake, and they deserve
a lot of credit for performing the way they performed.
But JJ Reddick has out coached some of the best
coaches in the MBA Steve Kerr and Joe Missoula and
Michael Malone, and like he has come up with game plans,
like he said before the Denver game, he did not
sleep for almost two days in anticipation and watching film
(17:21):
and game planning. And it wasn't just lip service because
they came out and held Nikolajokic to one of his
worst performances since he's become Nikola Jokich. He only took
seven shots, it was tied for a season low. He
had six turnovers. Like they really shut him down in
a way they never had before. So it wasn't like
JJ was just up there saying stuff like he delivered
(17:42):
with the game plan and with this group spy in
So I think the biggest thing has just been them
playing harder and then buying into his game plan. And
that's the thing you hear from the players after every
game is like, we just went out there and we
tried to execute the game plan. And I know it
sounds simple, it sounds basic, it sounds obvious, but that
was not happening under the previous coaching regimes, and that
(18:03):
was not happening even earlier this season. So since I think,
really since the La wildfires, that was kind of a
rallying moment for this group that they lost three straight
at that point, I called it the Texas massacre because
they got blown out by the three Texas teams. And
then from that point, right, what about this a lot better?
I mean, booha, what about all those people that died
(18:25):
in the movie. I mean, that's kind of insensitive. Well
it's it's it's tuggets check.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
I would know. It wasn't tongue in cheek. It was literal.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
They took those people took a chain.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
So I did right the old man with the little
hammers I had pounded away with that skull. What about
kind of the conversation after the Luca trade, E future,
don't get too excited about this year. Maybe it's a
slight step back before you can take that step forward.
Then they trade for Mark Williams and like, oh, you
know what, maybe got a big in here now then
that gets rescinded like it's it's exciting. You talked about
(18:58):
the numbers in a seven game series. Do you think
they have enough?
Speaker 3 (19:04):
I do.
Speaker 8 (19:05):
I think that this group as constructed, has a real
shot to make the conference finals. I think that Oklahoma City,
to me, reminds me of Boston last year, where because
of the youth and the inexperience and not having done
it before, people are overlooking how dominant they've been. So
I think OKAC is on their own tier in the West.
(19:26):
They should be solid favorites to come out of the conference.
But outside of Oka, see after seeing the way like,
I don't think it was a fluke, the way that
they beat Denver. Denver could not guard them like it
just changes the complexion of this group. Having Luka Dantic
out there, they can't put Aaron Gordon on Luca and Lebron,
and they were primarily putting him on Lebron. Then they
(19:47):
tried to switch him on to Luca and Luca was
still cooking him so it didn't matter. So I think
that the Denver matchup, what was the one thorn in
the Lakers side for the last couple of years. I
do think that that has changed with the Luke audition,
and he's historically dominated them and played really well against them.
So I think Denver is no longer the clear like
(20:08):
favorite in that series. I think it's probably closer to
fifty to fifty and then the rest of the West,
like put them up against Houston or Memphis, or the
Clippers or even the Warriors. The Warriors they've had a
lot of success against over the last few years. But
we'll see what it looks like with Jimmy. But I
think the Lakers have you know, basically any team in
the West head to head right now outside of OKC.
(20:29):
I would probably pick them in a you know, six
or seven games, maybe depending on the team, but I
think I would I would pick the Lakers like you
don't want to see Luca Lebron in a playoff series.
I think those are two some stars play worse than
the playoffs. Those two guys always play better in the
playoffs if you look at their numbers. Those guys are
big time performers, and I think them being able to
problem solve against a Houston, a Memphis or whatever team
(20:52):
you want to match them up with in Round one
I think they will figure out a way to get
it done.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
I mean they used to say you don't want to
see Lebron and Anthony Davis in the playoffs, but now
it's a different talking point.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
But I.
Speaker 8 (21:06):
And a better playoff performer.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
Well whatever, I mean, wait till you see Anthony Davis tonight.
All right, he's gonna take it to you.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
He's he's remember he's got that son of a bitch
fell over and like grabbed his balls.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
Oh no, I didn't know that. Uh, it's but let's
say the Lakers end up losing tonight, Like it's not
like an upswing. What are we gonna do? But it
was the game in Denver? Still that telling of the
future or or everything goes straight to hell and you
start coming up with other horror movies to you already
did the Texas cos on massacre. I don't know what
(21:44):
you'll do.
Speaker 8 (21:45):
I can only speak for myself because I know if
the Lakers lose tonight, we know the shows that tomorrow
are going to overreact and say it's doomsday and that
Luca Lebron, are you trying to.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Talk about us? Are you trying to Is that a no?
Speaker 8 (22:01):
You guys got a job to do, but we know
there's going to be overreactions in either direction, like the
next time they lose, there will be regardless of one
it is. The Lakers have a brutal that they have
the toughest schedule in the month in the NBA for
the next month. Like if you look at it, it's
just like good team after good team after good team,
a bunch of back to backs, a couple of road trips.
It's a really tough schedule. So they're gonna have some
(22:24):
struggles in the near future. But I think that the
Denver win and just the way that they've been playing
over the past month, I'm keeping the big picture perspective
of I think this team is really trending in the
right direction. They are saying all the right things, they
are delivering on the floor. I think Lebron has been
awesome for two months now, like people aren't really talking
(22:44):
about him and that like all NBA first or second
team discussion. He's locked in defensively, like his defense the
first two months for the versus the last two months,
it's been night and day in terms of how engaged
she's been ensure there's the occasional possession or stretch where
he's not good. But like for a four year old
with the most mileage in NBA history, like he has
(23:05):
been pretty good defensively. It was really good defensively in
that Denver game. So you had that Luca getting acclimated.
JJ coaching has butt off. I think this group has
a very high ceiling, and I would have be surprised
if they pushed for the two or three seed down
the stretch here.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Love it. The only thing I would do is reach
out to Andrew Boget see if he wants to retire.
It's got a big in there. We appreciate it.
Speaker 8 (23:28):
Dwight's still there right there.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
You go, Yeah, reach out to Dwight. He's ready to play.
Get that sweet meat out here in a Laker uniform.
We appreciate. Have fun out there against all the other
media that are in town tonight.
Speaker 8 (23:40):
I well got a lot of jostling tonight, a.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Lot of joscelying it's going to be a jossling. The
other way I thought Dwight Howard wasn't there. What do
you mean to a jostling? Sweet meat?
Speaker 3 (23:56):
That was hard to hear.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Well, get on. The Lakers are good again. It's Luca Man.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
Yeah, this overreaction.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
It's such a hate exactly right.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
Hey, look I remember when they beat the Golden State
Warriors and Byron Scott had.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
The key, He had the key.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Stupid. We got a big, blockheaded white Eastern European Baltic superstar.
It's just like watching the blockheads on Gumby skate around it. Well,
if it was.
Speaker 4 (24:31):
Like that, it'd be a different it'd be a whole
different story.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
He's like one of the blockheads out there.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Well, we'll have some reaction.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Imagine that we just don't know about yet. Oh, the
don Chiz brothers, the brothers. Jokic quite certainly has the
brothers Doncic that just start roughing people up in the stands.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
I'm quite certain we'd have been introduced to this point.
Maybe we don't know Luca's brothers because they're rob being
all the athletes while.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
They that's a great possibility.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Somebody's doing it. We'll be back with more. We'll have
some reaction with some text dosos next.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Not trust some money, think thank you to you. B Buham.
Gonna be out there for the Laker maverige scheme tonight,
said a lot of national media covering this one time,
Luca will face his former team. We however, tomorrow will
have the Clippers versus Bolls.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
We're coming with day the Energy tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Giving us a two to four pm flex alert.
Speaker 7 (25:37):
Show Energy Energy.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
All right, it is time for some text.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
Do So's a reaction to that interview was ow positive reaction, Man, secret.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Tex fine brought to you by your so called Toyota dealers.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
We make it easy.
Speaker 4 (26:07):
Reading Booha washing the King's balls is a slap in
the face to us the listener. Oh, you hoes have
sold out softer than gob on a Phoenix driveway in
July week.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Whatever, dude, I got datam energy, I don't need yours.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
I'm trying to inject it into you that it's going
to be a long.
Speaker 7 (26:31):
Run Energy Energy Energy.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Some people equated the lack of a launching pad to
Booja being on the show, basically saying we traded Booha
or is he? And the truth is that's not the truth,
because we traded Booha for Mick cronin.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Corona was supposed to be on that was that was
scheduled throughout the Boo I was allayed to add, you
guys appreciate him for doing Absolutely, you guys don't put
izzy on, but you do this shill Jesus just play that.
They then clip for ten minutes next time. Hey, we
can do all of this. I mean, I mean, we
don't have to be you know, listen, as she said,
(27:19):
the team is fourteen and four, like we at some
point they're fourteen and four, number one net defense and
number eight net off.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
Was what did you get the net involved? Man?
Speaker 2 (27:30):
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
We were fishing.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
He's just a hater, man, that's all it is.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Listen, we're gonna pile on when they deserve to be
piled on, when they're when they're fourteen and four over
the last eighteen the hell you want?
Speaker 3 (27:53):
What I wanted was cronin.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
If there's no if there's no launch pad today, I
will protest having to listen to this stupid spring batting
practice is like corporal punishment. So that guy's complaining about
the Dodgers. So not everybody's happy, you know. I see
what you mean, Matt. I see this stuff.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Every day I have. I don't want to make anybody happy.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
White men and rednecks and douchebags and a holes, white
men and rednecks, douchebags and a holes, White men and
rednex douchebags and a holes.
Speaker 3 (28:31):
We all have the place in this world. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
That is that the description of our showales. I think
it's pretty accurate.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
They need to do an inclusivity song for all the
different types of homeless addicts, black tar heroine, tweakers and drunkards,
black car in tweakers and drunkards.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
We all have a play, but not for long.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Oh come on, what nobody knows what's gonna happen anymorey No,
I kind of have a pretty good idea though. If
it's black Tar heroine, I kind of have an idea.
Speaker 4 (29:18):
I said, you need to tell me the Lakers are
gonna win tonight against that beat up Dallas tea.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
I feel like it's also certainty.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
I thought the official song that Petroson money was the
Jello Ball song that I must say what I want
to know and I say what I know. He wrote
this down, I'm gonna say what I want to know.
I'm gonna say what I know, and I say what
I know. I'm gonna know what I say I know
and a again, Matt more Anger, w tf is this
(29:48):
time wasting. Where is the g damn launch pad? Did
I heart cut the Lizzy? Butzzy budget too?
Speaker 3 (29:55):
Is he was free?
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (29:58):
Listen, guys, there's a ended late, not early, That's what
I'm saying. Like there's a lot of people. Some guy
even sent me a text making like Isabelle's name, like
you know, playing with the space bar. So it was
like a huge, gigantic text. But all it's spelled out
in capital letters was Izzy.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (30:17):
Very popular And we haven't talked to Izzy in months
and months and she's champion at the bit. She's quote
unquote dying to talk Dodgers and we'd love to put
her on, but we can't launch. Well, Matt, to be fair,
you wanted Rogan and Rodney to do an eight minute
(30:38):
show today.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
That's fair point, right, But that's that's not because I
don't want to launch.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
The next time this happens, maybe we cut Rogan and
Rodney loose. Maybe the Dodgers won't give up twelve runs
and actually have a game that ends before three hours,
and then we can get Izzy on. But if we
start after the top of the hour, that's not a law.
Much bad time, guys, it's not you can't you can't
launch at that time. That that that, like Matt said
(31:05):
that the weather conditions are not agreeable to it, and
we're safety We're safety first, you know. We we have
great air traffic control. Here at the Patterson Money Show.
Speaker 5 (31:16):
It was looking good though too.
Speaker 3 (31:17):
Guys.
Speaker 5 (31:17):
There was a ninth inning that was gonna get over
until they had a pitching change and seven different Dodger
hitters went to the plate in the bottom of the night.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
Well, now, is he has texted I understand why you
can't put me on.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
No.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
No, I don't think you do. No, it's scheduling wise,
is he. We want them to do the launch pad,
We're gonna have Colin's gonna be vic and we're gonna launch.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
We just it just hasn't worked.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
I want to launch. I really want to launch. I just, man,
it's it's painful to think that we would cut them
loose and they're not just sitting there looking at their watches.
I have to do like an eleven minute show. Don't
they feel it's made me great joy? Isn't it uncomfortable
enough for them just to have to be on standby? Yeah,
(32:01):
but That's what I'm saying, Like, if you tell them, Hey, guys,
we're gonna cut you lute. Don't even worry about it.
Whenever the game ends, we're gonna do this launch pad thing.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
Well, I mean, let's say the launch pad's gonna be
eight minutes and we tell them, yeah, we're gonna do it,
don't worry.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
We so we don't have to tell them until like
two forty pm, Like, hey, you know what, guys, it's
gonna be like ten minutes.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
You're good, go ahead, Like you want to upset the
Show before Us, but also give Isabelle her flowers exactly,
And it's not easy to do both.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
No, you know what I mean, I want to thread
that needle. That's the needle.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
That's like praising the Lakers and not praising Lebron. It's
not easy, Yeah, to do both. I don't want to
praise anything. Lebron's got involvement in, got his fingers in,
you know what I mean. I don't picked perfect case
scenario for me flowers. It's like the Show before Us
is freaking out because they're trying to dial in and
(32:52):
like the lines are blocked, and then like Ronnie just
like sends them a text like don't.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
Worry about it. Petro said, money, you're you gonna take
it from here. That's best case scenario for me. And
they freak out when you see that text.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Like their puzzo's hard and they're ready to come out
and perform, and we go, no, Diggler's good, he's gonna
do it.
Speaker 5 (33:12):
I think it's more about ruining their day. You want
them to go to lunch. I have to leave early
racing at home or wherever they do their show from now.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
We're talking and launch, no, no, we don't need you
after all, like set up a bitch. And then they
tune in and they hear Izzy and Colin having a
conversation with one another, like that's excuse me, that is
peak happiness.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
Well, I hope, I hope we get him at lunch. Right.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
We gotta get him at a lunch somewhere, right. We
got to be barking at the server. Listen, I need
my check now. And then they all ass home and
the flight's been deleted.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
Nop, you're good, this has been scheduled. Talk everybody wants
to schedule the show.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
Damn I'm petty.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
I mean yeah, Matt, I mean I just got lectured
on my leg. Your pettiness, but.
Speaker 2 (34:03):
My pettiness is personal.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
Excellent.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
They had to wait hours, Matt, they were their day
was ruined. They both have indigestion.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Excellent.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
My head's gonna hit the pillow and sleep to night
like a bell.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
I feel so good.
Speaker 4 (34:20):
We'll be back with your word number. Song of the day,
heavy Dodger influence. We got David Vasse smell Zilla Day
