that you cannot Google search things before you commit crimes.

Speaker 8 (02:22):
I can't believe how often I read Yeah, you were
searching for what now?

Speaker 4 (02:27):

Speaker 9 (02:48):
Just guess the initials in it for sure.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
One hundred and five thousand dollars. Now you don't have

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Man, I'm not going to give you access to miss
search history.

Speaker 5 (03:04):
That's still the timing that was preposterous or was it?

Speaker 10 (03:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (03:11):
I know, but DoD's still a free man.

Speaker 5 (03:14):
So Chris is google search history how to get a
stepmom unstuck?

Speaker 6 (03:19):
Yeah? Yeah, actually it's the other way around, guilty.

Speaker 8 (03:24):
Where can I find a The Midwest is getting its
first real taste of winter. The polar blast of freezing
air from Canada has plunged into the US, potentially breaking
dozens of daily record low temperatures from the planes to
the northeast.

Speaker 6 (03:40):
There's Nick Melinda Walker. Yeah, terrible timing.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
Nick, Yeah, not the ideal months to do it, like
screaming like that would throw them off balance, you would think.

Speaker 4 (03:54):
So.

Speaker 8 (03:55):
Today, temperatures were in the teens blow zero in areas
of Iowa and Minnesota. Of course, wisconsinus out to go to.
The cold weather will persist through the afternoon, with parts
of the Midwest seeing temperatures of twenty five degrees below
average for this time of year. Tomorrow, single digital is
expected to be felt from the Great Lakes to New England.
Next week snow cross begins and they got eighteen inches

(04:17):
of snow up there in Ironwood, Michigan, where we're going
next week. So it's benefiting some people. And I got
to believe the ski mountains are happy about it.

Speaker 5 (04:24):
Sure, for sure. You know what I mean saying about
colobial trails up there too.

Speaker 6 (04:28):
I believe it.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
I was thinking about going skiing at Lewison, getting some
drinks and some food.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
Yeah, Nope, the funniest thing happened.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
I guess I'll go somewhere else.

Speaker 8 (04:40):
The Athletics, since this their new stadium is going to
be ready in time for the twenty twenty eight season.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Good when they say that, they insist.

Speaker 6 (04:51):
That leads me to believe that people are doubting it. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (04:56):
The team sets constructions now underway and they expect the
two billion dollars to be ready in just over two years.
Nevada and Clark County. We'll fund about three hundred and
eighty million dollars at the project a's owner Jeff Nope.
John Fisher says he'll cover the rest himself. He's been
looking for investors, but yesterday A team officials did not
offer any updates on the funding. While the stadium is
being built, the Athletics are playing their games at a

(05:18):
minor league ballfield in West Sacramento.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Now, if this thing turns really south, you'll know it
because the new stadium in Vegas will be set on fire.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
Yeah yeah, for sure.

Speaker 6 (05:29):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
It worked for Lutzen Nope.

Speaker 3 (05:34):
But again, if you're ever really in debt and you
need like a lot of money quickly, you're in the
best city possible.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, Las Vegas, Nevada. Just go win it, like the
guy from FedEx.

Speaker 6 (05:43):
Yes yeah. Or it could be that you had enough
to fund the stadium and then you didn't.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
Well, then you just called Jack Prescott. That's all he does,
and he does it well and you're out of out
of all the trouble. Big deal he just filed for
chapter eleven. No big deal.

Speaker 6 (06:00):
We'll start over a longer chapter.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
You get out of jail free card. Chapter eleven.

Speaker 8 (06:06):
Authorities recalling a massive drug bust in Central Florida breaking
bad on steroids. Je police arrested twenty six year old
Matthew Horvath after seizing nearly ninety two pounds of seven zero.
The drug is a krodam byproduct with opioid like effects.
The street value of the seizure was more than four

(06:27):
and a half million dollars. Authorities also uncovered automatic weapons,
grenade simulators IED's and fifty not a fan of those, Nope,
and fifty pounds of explosive precursor chemicals.

Speaker 10 (06:40):
That's a huge bitch.

Speaker 8 (06:42):
This follows a month long investigation involving the DEAATF.

Speaker 6 (06:45):
And local law enforcement. Wow, that's a lot of drugs.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
And a lot of explosives and guns.

Speaker 6 (06:51):
Yeah, lawyers, guns and money.

Speaker 5 (06:54):
See you think though, too, if you have all that
stuff and you've got the grenade simul and you're apparently die.
By the way, simulate their grenade simulators are they're like
fake grenades. No, generally those will be they'll pop. They
weigh the same as a grenade, so that's what you
train with, so you can practice throwing them.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Why would this guy want to simulator?

Speaker 5 (07:17):
No, I well he wants to practice for when he's
throwing real grenades, or.

Speaker 6 (07:21):
He just wants to walk into a place and say.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
Look what I got.

Speaker 4 (07:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (07:25):
Yeah, but our grenade simulators were blue, so they're clearly
not real grenades.

Speaker 4 (07:30):
And so that's.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Hopefully the people he's threatening aren't smart enough to realize
that the blue grenades aren't the real one.

Speaker 5 (07:36):
I believe they don't serve in the military.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
Go, that's fake.

Speaker 5 (07:38):
Yeah, but he has all this stuff and then he
just went down without a fight.

Speaker 6 (07:43):
Yeah, like that's you lose all your street credit. He
must have been tired.

Speaker 5 (07:48):
Yeah, he's going to get pounded in prison.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
Some Dove Lambert just ratted him out, right, Sure, somebody
flipped and Dove Lambert red on this guy.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
Oh that's what dovs do. They rad them out.

Speaker 4 (08:00):
They do.

Speaker 6 (08:00):
Just because he's got a rat tail doesn't mean his rat.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
Oh god, now he's gonna do that, you know, you
know he just heard that, and he's like, great idea,
I haven't had a rat tail since I was twelve.

Speaker 6 (08:09):
Yeah, I was gonna guess he had one.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
Yeah, oh yeah, most lambers have rat tails.

Speaker 6 (08:14):
Yeah. I'd like to watch him fight an orangutang.

Speaker 4 (08:17):
Same.

Speaker 8 (08:18):
Speaking of that, a new pair of orangutangs are joining
the Louisville Zoo family.

Speaker 9 (08:22):
Oh convenient transit, Zoo official say, thirty eight year old
a female orangutang, Samugu, and her seven year old daughter
Kira have arrived at.

Speaker 6 (08:36):
The zoo for filming. I'm sorry the.

Speaker 8 (08:43):
Starting in the spring, the two will be feelable in
outdoor habitats with the zoo's three other orangutangs. This marks
the first time in nearly three decades the new orangutangs
have been brought to the Louisville Zoo.

Speaker 6 (08:56):
Right, turn Clyde, all.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
Right, so I would get ninety plus percent of people
say a rangutang with a G at the end, right,
like you just did. That's exactly how I say it too.
I don't think that's how you say it.

Speaker 6 (09:10):
I think correct, probably right, it's probably rangutans.

Speaker 3 (09:13):
Almost everybody. Almost everybody says it with a G. No weird, weird,
wonder how that happens?

Speaker 6 (09:21):
I know.

Speaker 1 (09:22):
It must have been from some I don't know, maybe
early cartoon or TV show.

Speaker 3 (09:28):
There must have been a way that we heard it
like that collectively and then just never turned back.

Speaker 8 (09:32):
And I've said it from the very beginning. I said
it to Clyde the orangutang. You can't try to get
me to change it now.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
No, exactly, it's too late. You should have told.

Speaker 6 (09:41):
Us you can't change your nickname now years ago.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
All right, So you're going with tang.

Speaker 6 (09:47):
That's right.

Speaker 8 (09:50):
God, he must hate it. And every time I say it,
he's like, you must you can't be talking about you
talking to me. I'm not an orangutang. I'm an orangutan.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Yeah, hell, Billy, that sounds so wrong.

Speaker 8 (10:00):
And then and he wins because even though they got
tiny arms, as Nate Bargatsi says, they're very very strong.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
Hey, if if it is truly not tang at the end, right,
if you're supposed to say it without the G, because
the G is not at the end of the word.
You know, we came up with the word. We could
just add a G and say nevermind, we hear it
the fan now, Well, I'm just collectively, that's like the
fifth time I've used the word collectively, But collectively we

(10:30):
could just say, hey, science, people that name animals, can
we just add a G?

Speaker 1 (10:34):
The rest of us are just saying it with the
G anyway.

Speaker 8 (10:36):
Do you think they said, I'm busy, They're busy doing
experiments and what not.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
Sure, I mean, somebody has to name these things. Let's
just add the G. That can be edited.

Speaker 6 (10:45):
The hell's going on there?

Speaker 5 (10:46):
I'm trying to get the pronunciation. But that's actually the
sounds that they make is that that was actual?

Speaker 1 (10:52):
Your tabs still open. We have to be guaranteed human.

Speaker 6 (10:56):
That sounded way more.

Speaker 5 (10:57):
Like that was in the wild. It did sounded like
a green needle.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
See, it.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
Says people pronounce orangutan with a final G sound due
to phonetic assimilation, where the N at the end blends
with the preceding U sound in the middle of the word.
Again some more natural in English.

Speaker 6 (11:22):
God, I don't care at all.

Speaker 5 (11:23):
And it says here it says that people say that
way because people like repeating syllables.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
Yeah, h listen to this. Then let's just change it.

Speaker 6 (11:32):
Yeah, we're in charge.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
We're in charge. We named it the first time. We
can change the name another.

Speaker 11 (11:37):
One, Pete had a shut down. This was again like
the nineteen eighties.

Speaker 6 (11:41):
I was alive.

Speaker 11 (11:45):
You could fight an orangutang kind of figure. They would
have an orangutan just sitting in a boxing ring, and
guys would pay.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
To fight it. And I say guys, because I.

Speaker 11 (12:00):
I just can't imagine one woman ever fought this ring.
I think you can put an a ring and tang
in a room of a thousand women and when they
walked out, like, did anybody fight it? They can never
crossed their mind to fight it. But three men in
that room.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
Two of those men will fight that rings.

Speaker 6 (12:24):
It's the best man.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
That's awesome, it's the best.

Speaker 6 (12:27):

Speaker 6 (14:46):
A local chef has found her home sweet home in
the first ever Home Hunter's episode filmed in Duluth.

Speaker 8 (14:55):
The episode, which aired last Saturday and HG TV, followed
the loose native Jillian four as she looked for a
house with space character and lake fuse in the city's
Hillside neighborhood. Real estate agent Jesse Ericson and friend Matt
Lenberg joined Forte on the hunt. De Luke showed up
with the lake fuse, Hillside charm and all the quirky,
lovable features that make this place home. She wrote on

(15:17):
a social page. The episode titled fire Dancing in Duluth.
That's inappropriate. We can be streamed on HGTV in prime video.
Oh I see why. Now here's its description. A fire
dancer looks to buy a house in her hometown of Duluth.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Minnesota, fire dancing big up North, particularly in Lutsen.

Speaker 6 (15:40):
Okay, I like what you just did there.

Speaker 8 (15:43):
She's looking for a project that has character in a
room for her own, for her daughter to grow. Man,
there's some great neighborhoods on the hill, and right, don't
you those all the houses that have been sitting there forever.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
I know, But no offense to all of our listeners.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
That hill this year, this month to a basically March
or April.

Speaker 1 (16:03):
Yeah, that's a death slide.

Speaker 6 (16:05):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (16:06):
I have no interest in living on a hill that's
that cold and that slippery and that icy.

Speaker 4 (16:10):
No thanks.

Speaker 6 (16:11):
It was eight years old. I broke my leg.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
I did some good partying up there back in my
friend's college days. And uh yeah, we had one time
where I made basically empty the whole house to get
me my car out of there.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
In the winter. No fun.

Speaker 6 (16:26):
I think it's fun.

Speaker 8 (16:27):
And the the house apparently was it two hundred and
eighty five thousand dollars, So what I'm saying, it's pretty good.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
I love it.

Speaker 6 (16:36):
I love it. I like those.

Speaker 4 (16:38):
Man.

Speaker 8 (16:38):
If you, if you ever you know your time, and
you want to go up there, you can see where
where Bob Dylan's grandma grew up.

Speaker 6 (16:46):
Just a regular house. It's still sitting there, right, and
then you turn left and you.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
Go tack your hands up. Bob Dylan's grandma, well.

Speaker 6 (16:54):
You know, uh, she's a girl from the Norse country.
So yeah, she produces artists, right.

Speaker 8 (17:02):
Uh, it's probably no longer with us, I'm guessing, but
uh anyway, but great, great houses, beautiful.

Speaker 6 (17:09):
I love to loose man. And there's a great family.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
Sauna, yes, well reviewed, very well reviewed, and other stuff

Speaker 6 (17:24):
Down Tuxo.

Speaker 1 (17:26):

Speaker 7 (17:30):
It's time for a fan five on the Power Trip,
presented by All Around your Timber Tech deck building contractor.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
The Minnesota Vikings host the Commanders. But we'll talk about
that next segment. You're obsessed with me, Wow.

Speaker 11 (17:46):
Dude, I know It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas,
isn't it.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
Yes, indeed, I agree, snark got a Alex Trebeck man, what.

Speaker 6 (17:57):
A what a snark?

Speaker 4 (17:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (17:59):
Man, the Vikings.

Speaker 3 (18:02):
My kiddo yesterday asked me why do people go on
Jeopardy and I go to win an flow of money?

Speaker 6 (18:07):
And that's how about the money? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, you
don't wish you had been so condescending.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
You don't want so much money.

Speaker 3 (18:16):
I mean, you know what's awesome though, back to the
fact that the Saint Paul Federal Credit Union initials jackpot
is one hundred and five thousand.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
Yeah, think about this.

Speaker 3 (18:23):
You could spend thirty or forty years of your life
trying to obtain as much knowledge as you possibly can
and turn your brain into a Ken Jennings esque encyclopedia.
Get on Jeopardy, catch Fire, win for ten or twenty
games in a row, rack up a bunch of money,

(18:44):
and be really happy with yourself, going like, man, all
that study and paid off, thank you. Or in one
hour you can just call and guest two letters and
I'll give you one hundred and five thousand dollars and
you can be the dumbest son of a bitch on
the planet and just go, uh, letter A letter b Boom,
here's the money out the door.

Speaker 1 (19:02):
Not nice.

Speaker 3 (19:03):
That's why gambling kicks ass the best because you don't
have to be smarter to roulette will you just have
to have the number drop right in there and you're rich.

Speaker 4 (19:13):
Take that.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Mechanical engineers, yeah, take.

Speaker 3 (19:16):
That, doctors, mechanical animals, Take that hedge fund manager guy,
even though that's gambling too, you know what I'm saying, right,
but you're putting down Yeah forget learning, Yeah, learning suckers.

Speaker 6 (19:33):
He's got that right, You got that right.

Speaker 1 (19:38):
My youngest right now, in math, not a lot, not
a long enough paused their core? What did I How
did I word it?

Speaker 4 (19:44):
Well?

Speaker 2 (19:44):
No, you just you're supposed to we're supposed to stop talking,
and then you're we're supposed to have like, oh, fifteen
seconds of sign got it?

Speaker 1 (19:50):
Got it before? Yeah? All right, I'll see if I
can do it right after this.

Speaker 4 (19:54):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
In math now she's dealing with probability and she's like,
I just don't get it, and I'm like, well, look,
there's a whole bunch of math you go through in
school that is just to challenge your brain. Ninety nine
percent of people aren't going to use hardcore algebra or
calculus when they're older. It's just to challenge your brain.
It's a puzzle. Try to figure out the puzzle. I
go probability, though. I wish I would have been told

(20:18):
how much of a degenerate gambler I was going to
be when I was younger, so when I hit probability
in school, I would have locked in and focused right,
because this stuff matters the rest of your life.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Probability matters.

Speaker 3 (20:31):
Risk reward, Yeah, investments, Yeah, math, let's go.

Speaker 1 (20:37):
She's like, I don't get it, and I'm like, oh god,
I'm so.

Speaker 7 (20:40):
But Gianna works hard at math because then you don't
have to I don't. I mean, it's it's not math anymore.
And I'm one of those ninety nine point nine percent
you were talking about.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
Corey Yep, yep. The Flames beat the wild four to one.

Speaker 6 (21:01):

Speaker 7 (21:21):
Yeah, which is absolutely incredible. Yeah, that what a what
a fun run it was on everybody was having fun.
You could tell how much the guys, how much fun
the guys were having on the ice, you know, and
that just filters right through all of us fans. The
great thing about this team now is, you know, we
have a mature team now. It's I don't think we're
gonna have to worry about the ups and downs that

(21:42):
we've had in the past couple of years. I think
we're going to find a team here that's found what
they can do, and we're gonna see little blips on
the screen Storry Hawk.

Speaker 8 (21:49):
No, that's okay, buddy. I just we have a special guest.
We're gonna get back to your your wild figure.

I appreciate you guys. Thank you means a lot.

Speaker 6 (22:13):

what's this mean to you?

Speaker 8 (22:16):
I know you do a lot of work with Boys
and Girls Club, all kinds of pamper her purple, many
different things.

Speaker 6 (22:22):
What's the mean to you to be nominated? Why do
you do that kind of thing?

Speaker 10 (22:26):
It means the world to me. I mean, after last
year being able to experience it and being with thirty
one other guys who have impacted their communities in just
tremendous ways.

Speaker 4 (22:36):
Man, it's just such an honor to even be mentioned
in that category. And you know, I'm just thankful. I'm
humbled that my.

Speaker 10 (22:43):
Teammates see that the work that my family and I
have been able to do in the people that we've
been able to be a part of mean something, and
just again just humbled. Man, it's awesome.

Speaker 8 (22:55):
Well, and you mentioned your family because your wife, Stephanie's
a huge part of what you do, isn't she absolutely?

Speaker 10 (23:01):
My wife, my kids, I mean, everything that we do,
we do it as a family. That's kind of our
family model is to see a need, feel a need,
see people, love people, know people.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
And that's what's cool CJ about this group is we
talked a lot about this last year when you guys
were having crazy success. The team was killing it, and
we're like, man, this team in the locker room is
a really good group of guys, And in the history
of the Vikings we haven't always been able to say that,
but man, we're like, this is a group you can
cheer for.

Speaker 1 (23:28):
They're fourteen and three, they're killing it.

Speaker 4 (23:30):
Now.

Speaker 3 (23:30):
This year obviously not going the way you guys want
it four and eight, but that doesn't mean that the
guys in the locker room are different, right, This is
still a good group of guys that still do a
lot of stuff in the community. We saw that first
hand with Toys for Tots on Tuesday, and now again,
like Chris just mentioned, you're the Walter Payton Man of
the Year nominee for the second consecutive year because you
bust your ass. Whether you're fourteen and three or four
and eight, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 10 (23:53):
Yeah, absolutely, And I think you hit the nail on
the head. I mean, obviously, my job is to go
out there and win games and hopefully win a Super Bowl.

Speaker 4 (24:00):
That's what every team is trying to do.

Speaker 10 (24:03):
But at the end of the day, like that's the NFL.
There's there's there's some seasons that are going to be great.
There's other seasons where it's gonna be tough and you
gotta roll with the punches. You got to continue to
put your best foot forward. But at the end of
the day, how you treat people like that's going to
last with you forever. And I think we've got a
great group of guys, a great team who truly cares

(24:24):
about people. This organization, our owners, they've they've they've always
put that out there.

Speaker 8 (24:29):
All thirty two nominees are recognized at the NFL Honors event,
which is right before the Super Bowl in February last year.
What was that event like and what about it?

Speaker 6 (24:39):
What? What what surprised you about it?

Speaker 4 (24:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (24:43):
Yeah, that was definitely our first time being in any
type of setting like that.

Speaker 4 (24:46):
It was really cool. You know.

Speaker 10 (24:49):
I I've seen them, I've seen them on TV all
the time, but just seeing what what all goes into that,
how it's how it's orchestrated, the little fine details of
where you have to be at a certain time. It
felt kind of cool to be to be in that
in that scene.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
For once.

Speaker 8 (25:08):
Real quick, because again, I know you got to go
to meetings and we appreciate it. I do want to
ask you about this week's game. But we just did
a story about Duluth, Minnesota having a home on one
of those the House for Sale shows on HGTV. You
grew up in Duluth, did you have problems with the
ice on the hills in the winter time?

Speaker 4 (25:28):
Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 10 (25:28):
I mean I didn't drive much in Duluth. I didn't
get my license until I was in college. So but
looking back at it, I'm just like, I don't know,
Like when I go back now, I don't know how
people drive.

Speaker 4 (25:41):
On these roads in the middle of the winter.

Speaker 10 (25:43):
Like it's got to be the scariest thing, you know,
these there's on on the hill, the hills almost going
straight down and you're going fifty fifty miles an hour?

Speaker 4 (25:52):
Like how do you stop?

Speaker 10 (25:53):
Like it's I mean, people do it, but I yeah.

Speaker 4 (25:59):
It's crazy. It's crazy to think about and see. But
people do it every day.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
Why did you wait so long to get your license?

Speaker 10 (26:07):
I just I just didn't need to, you know, well,
drivers ed was expensive, you know, I took the public
transportation of my dad.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
With my dad would bring me places I needed to.

Speaker 10 (26:17):
Go, where I'd find rides, and it was it was
just cheaper.

Speaker 4 (26:20):
Intigated when I was eighteen.

Speaker 6 (26:21):
Again.

Speaker 5 (26:22):
C J.

Speaker 8 (26:22):
Ham is our guest, and congratulations again the Walter Payton
Man of the Year Award for the second year in
a row, the nominee for the Minnesota Vikings. Quickly, before
we let you get to your meeting, there's a feeling
in the radio station that this is going to be
a great week, not only for the Vikings but for
your young quarterback. Does that feeling trans into the locker
room down there as well? For some reason, people are
walking around here going this feels like the week things

(26:44):

Speaker 4 (26:46):
Yeah. Absolutely.

Speaker 10 (26:47):
I mean every single week we put together a game

decorate them.

Speaker 6 (28:44):
Yeah, yeah, I want to have a natural wobble. That's right.

Speaker 8 (28:50):
But then but we also have to wait a while

Speaker 7 (28:57):
That's what we're going to get ours this weekend, because yeah,

Speaker 12 (29:02):
It's how many trees will you have in your house?
If you have the one reel, do you litter the
rest with the artificial?

Speaker 6 (29:10):

The kids fuse, they'll do the what was the the
tab thing whatever that on the cereal box tops or.

Speaker 1 (34:36):
Oh I remember that, I remember that. Yeah, get them
out and collect them. Those are the days the good.
Tried cinnamon cheerios the other day and they were a plus.

Speaker 6 (34:46):
I've heard good things.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
I have not tried them yet though with malk.

Speaker 3 (34:50):
No, malk right right, A handful of just a handful
of like it's like cinnamon protein cheerios. But I probably
should try them with a bowl of Kemp's milk. I'll
tell you what you know.

Speaker 8 (35:03):
Now you milk, I tell you what the say you
need to try hot cocoa flavored Life Cereal.

Speaker 6 (35:10):
It's so good.

Speaker 1 (35:11):
Interesting.

Speaker 3 (35:12):
I don't believe I've ever had any flavor of Life
Cereal once in my entire life.

Speaker 1 (35:17):
You got to get out at once.

Speaker 6 (35:18):
Do you have to like heat it up?

Speaker 7 (35:19):
You get the real hot cocoa, we feel out of it,
or you just eat it.

Speaker 6 (35:24):
I never even thought about it.

Speaker 3 (35:25):
Eating up cereal is psychotic. Well, hot coco I'm just
going with that. I've done it.

Speaker 1 (35:33):
I think they're just going for the flavor, not the temperature.
But I get what you're saying.

Speaker 12 (35:36):
Cinnamon toast crunch you eat cold, whereas if you had
a slice of cinnamon toast, you know, hope it was warm.

Speaker 6 (35:44):
You're making a lot of sense to me.

Speaker 1 (35:45):
It's just got to make the leap, you know, That's right.
I have a little faith from once marchees.

Speaker 6 (35:50):
Yeah, come on, have a little faith. I'm a doubter.

Speaker 3 (35:52):
Come on.

Speaker 6 (35:53):
George Michael on The Power Trip presented a success, a
get to our friend CJ. Ham for appearing on the
part of Morning Show, and congratulations on your nominie yesterday.
The Man, the Myth, the Legend.

Speaker 8 (36:11):
Justin Jefferson addressed the gathered media and told him how
to calm down. Here's why he didn't talk to reporters
after the game on Sunday.

Speaker 13 (36:20):
Yeah, just frustrating on the on the game, coming out
with zero points is never something that I'm satisfied with.
We lost, you know, and obviously I just feel like
it's the same thing.

Speaker 4 (36:30):
You know, I'm gonna I'm gonna be.

Speaker 13 (36:32):
Sitting there telling y'all guys the same exact you know
thing that that I've said for the past couple of weeks. Uh,
you know, the offense needs to get it better, and
you know, we need to focus up and execute and
all of the things that we've been saying the whole season.
So just you know, the frustration and the emotions definitely
was high after the game.

Speaker 6 (36:49):
Yeah, I get it, Yeah for sure. Especially you know,
I hated getting shut outs. That was a goal scorer.

Speaker 7 (36:55):
That was my job to put points on the board
for my team.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
That drove me nuts.

Speaker 7 (36:58):
We got shut out more than any if we lost
by one goal. So I can imagine a guy like
Justin Jefferson at his level, he's got to be just yeah,
beside himself.

Speaker 6 (37:09):
But I love how professional.

Speaker 7 (37:10):
He's handling it. He's handling it maturely. He's handling it
the right way. It's all about the team. He understands that.
I love what I hear out of him.

Speaker 6 (37:19):
Yeah, if you're not going to say something nice, don't
say anything at.

Speaker 1 (37:21):
All, Amen, Well then I'm going to go home.

Speaker 6 (37:23):
That's why I tell you.

Speaker 3 (37:25):
JJ McCarthy was a full participant in practice. Of course,
he's coming out of the concussion protocol. That's why he
missed last week. Dari Saw and Levi Drake Rodriguez did
not practice, although Darras Saw was a full participant on Wednesday.
That's what he does sometimes, right, So who knows? They're
limited in practice yesterday. Grenard Donovan Jackson, Theo Jackson, Aaron Jones,

(37:49):
Josh mattelis on the other side, full participant quarterback jayde
and Daniels of the Washington Commanders.

Speaker 6 (38:00):
He'll play. This isn't great though.

Speaker 7 (38:02):
Yeah, yeah, they're not. They don't quite have the electricity
they had last year, do there?

Speaker 3 (38:06):
But he's missed a ton of games. That's part of
the problem. He's been injured.

Speaker 6 (38:09):
In case you guys are wondering, I'm in eighteen hundred
and twelfth place in the CIRCA millions. I was just
wondering that. My god, it took me a long time
to find my name. I've been looking since I was talking.

Speaker 7 (38:22):
I've been wondering what he's been scrolling down here this
whole time.

Speaker 3 (38:25):
Well we should mention, by the way, speaking of Circa Survivor, Marty,
you remember when we did it the first time and
then you missed the deadline and yep, and Sauce is.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
Like Corey would have let her stay in.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
Well, no, I think it's kind of whatever that we
had a noon kickoff or a noon deadline, But that
was the rule.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
I guess whatever you said. Hey, you said I screwed up.
That's right. I forgot eight am. You said I screwed up.
My fault. I don't deserve to be in.

Speaker 3 (38:52):
Did you see who missed the deadline yesterday? Paul meets Sauce.
Lambert did not know see the deadline. He meets Austin
when he was up in Bentley, Villy wasn't paying attention.
So I think there were six or seven of you
left and Sauce forgot to get a pick in.

Speaker 1 (39:06):
So he is out. That's right, he's out out.

Speaker 6 (39:11):
He's out.

Speaker 1 (39:11):
So I'm still stressing with my life.

Speaker 7 (39:13):
A few weeks ago, I decided, you know, it was
too much stress. Yeah, that was why I didn't forget
you were. It was just it was too much stress,
that's it. So yeah, yeah, I couldn't take to nack.

Speaker 1 (39:22):
Your hands up. Too much pressure.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
Voting starts today on in the final four dot com.

Speaker 3 (39:29):
We did not beat We beat Pat mcafe beat Pat
McAfee a.

Speaker 1 (39:34):

Speaker 3 (39:35):
We up against the fantasy football podcast that took out PA.

Speaker 4 (39:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (39:39):
Yeah, that's tough, man.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
So we're gonna need all of you to go to
the sixty four dot com uh later today. I don't
think it starts still later this morning, but it goes
through the weekend. So podcast listeners, et cetera, you need
to get there because I feel like they're the only
ones who else who cares about this, I.

Speaker 3 (39:57):
Think, right for sure. Well, and let's just say this too.
We just were happy to get invited. Yeah, like, you know,
we weren't even expecting to win more than a game
or so at the most.

Speaker 1 (40:09):
But we just thought it was super cool. We got invited.
PA got invited in a common got invited.

Speaker 3 (40:14):
The three of us got invited to this sixty four
podcast Slash Sports Radio bracket. Super cool that seventy five
percent of the power the akfaan lineup got in. That
was super awesome. And uh yeah, sure we took out
Common and now we're in the finals against some fantasy football.

Speaker 6 (40:31):
It's incredible, it's incredible.

Speaker 1 (40:33):
We'll take it.

Speaker 6 (40:34):
I was shots to be nominated because we don't talk sports, well,
almost never. What are you talking about?

Speaker 3 (40:40):
Yesterday, Parish, we opened with a fifteen minute segment on
Gremlin's two well yeah, yeah, which and how Chris wants
to bang the female Gremlin? I never said those were
you heavily implied, I insinuated you. You implied that you
understood how that guy accepted his death and then was
willing to bang her to stay alive. Two Birds, one
stone exactly.

Speaker 1 (41:02):
Uh, you're very unselfish.

Speaker 8 (41:04):
Yeah, we're up against fantasy football today. I'll go to
thus sixty four dot com. I can't wait to see
the fanfare that on the the big the big deal
that I already would make out of this if one
of their morning shows actually won the second.

Speaker 3 (41:16):
There's no doubt we're going to have one of those
company wide meetings where the whole building, comes to the
performance center and they give us some kind of a
plaque and a presentation, and all the shows, you know,
high five us and say like, job, well done. That's
so cool that you get this recognition. We're really proud
of you. This is gonna be a part of a
fun team.

Speaker 8 (41:32):
This fantasy football today. Beat Tony Kornheiser. Sure, oh my gosh,
well he had it coming.

Speaker 12 (41:38):
Yeah, man, the Whippy Finals, as in, this is the
only two left, nothing, the final left.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
We beat Pat McAfee, we beat uh Ben Mallard and Mallar.
We'd beat the common man Dan Cole took him out
to eat the pivot arm.

Speaker 4 (41:57):
Sorry.

Speaker 2 (41:58):
Morning Show with when We're in jail, Big deal and
Petros and Money, Yeah, take that Petros and money.

Speaker 6 (42:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (42:06):
And by the way, like all the shows, pardon my take,
Stephen A. Smith, Bill Simmons Show, Doug Gottlieb, The Herd
with Colin Coward, all these shows and we're one of
the last two standards.

Speaker 3 (42:23):
Really, honestly though, excited to get invited, that was the
best part.

Speaker 8 (42:27):
To actually be one of the sixty four was an
a great honor. And now that we're top two, it's
a it's an honor to be honored.

Speaker 1 (42:33):
No, what's crazy.

Speaker 3 (42:34):
It's like, you know, the fans a cute little station.
It's like we're not even the most listened to station
in the building.

Speaker 6 (42:39):
K one o two is according to I had no
idea until I saw that yesterday.

Speaker 1 (42:43):
Same yeah, oh yeah, yeah, apparently.

Speaker 8 (42:45):
That's what I Heeart Radio said that they're above everything.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
Absolutely, and question.

Speaker 12 (42:51):
That somebody told you that, or there's like a measurement
released it.

Speaker 1 (42:55):
They released it press release.

Speaker 6 (42:58):
They don't do those.

Speaker 4 (43:01):
Now.

Speaker 3 (43:02):
You know.

Speaker 12 (43:02):
I'm a country music lover, So I do listen to
K one o two. So I did too, Trader, Yeah,
and kfan and so I switched back and forth.

Speaker 1 (43:12):
Sure, but I would have thought KFN had more listeners. Yeah,
many people would have not. You know, well may it's
a Tuesday.

Speaker 6 (43:22):
Can I go back moment too? The fact that I'm
an eighteen hundred and twelfth place in the circum million.

Speaker 1 (43:27):
That's pretty good.

Speaker 6 (43:27):
Yeah, my record on the year.

Speaker 8 (43:30):
Right now, you pick five games a week using the spread,
I'm thirty three and thirty two.

Speaker 6 (43:38):
I'm one of five five hun, that's solid. It's I'm
shocked by that.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
You're you know, it's supposed to be a coin flip, right,
I think. I think?

Speaker 3 (43:45):
Oh man, I have a couple of buddies that are
professional sports betters. They can text me and tell me
how oft I am. I believe you have to be
in that fifty five to sixty percent range to be profitable.
Well I think maybe even higher than that, but somewhere
in that range.

Speaker 1 (44:00):
Like it's the margins are thin high, yeah, because it's hard.

Speaker 3 (44:03):
It's I mean again, it's supposed to be as close
to a fifty to fifty coin flip as you can get.
So I think you have to run five to ten
percent higher to even have a chance at being profitable.

Speaker 1 (44:13):
I'm not sure.

Speaker 3 (44:14):
Somebody, if Mike or Blake or somebody's listening to, just
text me.

Speaker 8 (44:17):
Well, here's the thing, Corey, as you heard when I
was talking to Chris this morning making my picks. I'm
still not sure how the spread works.

Speaker 6 (44:27):
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (44:28):
I think what Corey basically says you have to get
higher when you make your picks, that might help.

Speaker 6 (44:33):
It's like thanks Collective Soul fifty, so you haven't been
smoking enough Creed.

Speaker 1 (44:37):
I mean yes, or Collective Soul works as well. I'm
sure they got.

Speaker 12 (44:43):
Tell me your place again, and out of how many eighteen.

Speaker 8 (44:47):
Hundred and twelve out of let me look six hundred
and eighty. Well, I mean there's a lot of ties.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
Yeah, but so you're better than halfway.

Speaker 8 (44:57):
Yeah, yeah, six hundred and eighty four is the last place,
and the last place guy gets a million dollars, by
the way, but he's got to pick every week. You
can't just pick one.

Speaker 3 (45:05):
Right because because getting first and getting last statistically is
almost identical, exactly, it's just as hard to intentionally pick no. Again,
you could have started out intentionally trying to win and
then quickly realized, oh my god, I'm off to a
terrible start. Now I should just bomb the rest of
the it. But then it's just as hard to pick
the losers. It's the exact same choice. How do I

(45:27):
pick the loser.

Speaker 12 (45:27):
Against the survivor pool, where you're just picking the winner.
In this pool, you're picking against the.

Speaker 3 (45:33):
Right right in the survivor pool, you just forget to
put your entry in and you're out right, yep, sauce yesterday.

Speaker 1 (45:38):
Yeah, do that in any round, don't.

Speaker 8 (45:40):
Yeah, So thirty three and thirty two is what I am.
What do you think the number one leader is right
now as far as how many games they've gotten right
so far?

Speaker 1 (45:48):
Chris Carr out of sixty five, yes, man, five, I'm
gonna say, let's go something like fifty three.

Speaker 6 (46:00):
Only forty seven. Oh okay, forty seven is the leader
right now.

Speaker 1 (46:03):
Yeah, that's how hard it is.

Speaker 6 (46:04):
Yeah, it's not easy, and I got thirty three. It
feel good? Yeah, thanks man, really rolling, that's what I am.

Speaker 3 (46:10):
All right, We're going to do a quick fan five
when we get back. Then in about fifteen minutes, one
of you gets to crack at one hundred and five
thousand dollars with the Saint Paul Federal Credit Union initials,
Jackpop and Marnie Hawk, Parrish and Zach square off in
Initials Game six.

Speaker 1 (46:24):
So six. This is the Power Trip Morning Show

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
