Speaker 1 (00:00):
Ed's awfu the Philadelphia Eagles one Super Bowl fifty nine.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
They have baked the Kansas City Chiefs twenty twenty two.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
It's their second Super Bowl win in seven years. What
a game, what a season? Won a team? Look the
legacy Aples team in modern history.
Speaker 4 (00:19):
Eagles fans savor it and the three choice we call
Kersey of Meryl reach wip there in Philadelphia.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Didn't really need him counting it down though. That game
was well in hand.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
As it was four quarters of the Philadelphia Eagles beating
up the Kansas City Chiefs. I know a lot of
Broncos fans are happy about that because they love to
hate the Chiefs or whatever guys beating up kids.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Patrick Mahomes losing doesn't win you guys at Super Bowl.
That's all I'll say on that. That said, and Philly
put it to them.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Congratulations to the Eagles, graduations, Chila Hurts, Sagua Barkley, Congratulations
to Vic Fangio for coming up with a aster full
defensive game plan, and congratulations to the players going out
and executing that. That was all Philly, top to bottom.
They ran it up and they left no doubts. Nick
Ferguson back in studio here. Hey, no, buddy, why do
(01:12):
you know you used to wearing the green? There is
that reflective of anything?
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Well, then let me ask you what do you think
is inflective for I got my war head on.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Yes, that's right, I got my fatigue.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Hats on, because it was definitely war last night in
New Orleans. And I'm glad you started off by thanking
Pig Fangio. And we've seen a narrative before. There are
certain coaches who excel at a coordinated position, but when
it comes to being a head coach, they struggle. And
the reason they struggle because they are not used to
(01:47):
delegating across the board. Some coaches are used to just
being in their laying defense or offense. But in certain
cases now you're asking an office of guy to be
able to relate defensively and vice versa. But in the
game last night, fantastic job at vic Fangio, and someone was.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Talking to me. I was going back and forth having.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
These conversations on Twitter, and there was a lot of
praise being given to Vic Fangiel for the obvious reasons.
But I said, well, it's not just big. You got
to get those players and those that those front four.
Those dudes deserve all the credit in the world because
as a defensive coordinator, as a guy been playing the secondary,
(02:29):
when you can get pressure with just your front four,
oh my god.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
The ld beauty. They did not blitz one time. The
Eagles did not blitz one time.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Right, And I know the conversation was, okay, well, at
some point the Chiefs are going to force them into
a blitz.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Nope, nope, never happened.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
It was like the opposite of that line from Remember
the Titans, where he comes there.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
You will blitch them all night. You make sure and.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
It's stand Vic fanger'sai the Yeah, we don't blitz at
all tonight. You make sure they remember forever the night
they played the Eagles.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
You know, leading up to this point, we've heard over
against the time that Patrick Mahomes has been in this
league and he's had so much success, is that you
cannot blitz him. So Vic Fangi said, all right, we
won't brace us.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
A question one, did Vic Fangio had an advantage going
into this game, having previously been the head coach of
the Denver Broncos and playing Pat Mahomes twice a year.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
No, what I'm gonna say, no, because those years the
Broncos did not do well against Kansas City.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Now they held him point wise, they held him down.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Defensively, yes, but overall not so much. So it only
gave him a glimpse of what they were capable of.
But understanding the personnel was entirely different was forced Kansas City,
Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes would do something a lot
different than what they were used to. So there are
certain things that coach Fangio could lean on, but then
other things he had to learn to adjust with. But
(04:04):
what you learn is that in this league where so
many people talk about the quarterback position, how if you
don't have that guy, you don't have a team.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
Some of that is true to a certain percentage.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
But what we saw on display and our challenge any
offensive player. We just saw Orlando walk out of here.
You know, we saw Dave Mogan just walk out of here.
It is the narrative is still the same. It is
something that we always say every year, but it's damn true.
Defense wins championships.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
I did in this particular case.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
I mean, you can go back and look at various
different aspects of the chief defense was actually playing rather well.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
The problem here was that the offense turned it over.
It couldn't get anything going, turn it over deep in territory.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
And the backbreaker was that Zach Bond interception there near
the half where Kansas City might have could have got
something going or at least punted, you know, and kept
it fairly close. And at that point it was just over.
Defense went won the championship here. I thought, you know,
it doesn't look like it on the final score, but
Kansas City's defense played as well as could be expected.
Uh and if not certainly better than the scoreboard indicated.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
It's just their offense was that much work.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
That was a complete beat down, and we've seen we've
seen a beat down before. Go back and look at
the Tampa super Bowl against Kansas City, where Todd Bowles
copied Vic Fangiel's game plan, by the way, and went
completely different from what he normally does.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Whoa, whoa, whoa ho Holmes, Go back and look at
that super I know, but you're saying that Todd Bowles,
who is a blitzing guy, copied Vic Fanzil.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
Yeah, he addinity did it. I don't, I don't. I
don't see it. Go back and look at his interviews
now he admits he admits that he copied that I
got it. Here's what how how I looked at it.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
I looked at Vic Fangio taking a little out of
what the Bucks did, and Todd Bows might have and
a couple of things from Vic Fangio. But I don't
think he got everything from him and the nature of
beating the Chiefs because down in New Orleans, every place
I win radio row, I think I was. It was
(06:14):
me and a handful of people who were saying the
Eagles would win.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
But the idea was that I say.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Look, if you think about football, and I know people
say we can't bet against Patrick Mahomes like he's Tom
Brady football. There's a simple game and there are certain
complexities you can build off the simplicity.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Of the game.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
But it boils down to not allowing quarterbacks to do
what they want to do. And the game plan last
night and the game plan against when the Bucks play
Kansas City, when they beat him thirty one nine, it
was still the same thing. You got to force that quarterback.
You got to make life miserable for him. You got
to force the office of coordinator to make adjustments. But
(06:56):
the biggest thing you have to do is you have
to have guys on the end who are disciplined. And
that's what allowed that front four to play as well
as they did. They were disciplined and they backed one
another up.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Yeah, I mean, there's you know what what Vic has done.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
And it's kind of funny because everybody calls you know,
they call Pat Mahomes Superman and all this kind of stuff.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Well, I guess Vic Fangios Lex Luca than.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
And he's got the kryptonite because he's figured out that
the roadmap for shutting down Patrick Mahomes. And like I said,
Todd Bowles copied large portions of that in their their
Super Bowl victory.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Now, Mahomes was playing a bum ankle as well, so
that helped. But yeah, I forget that bum. I mean,
we've heard so bum ankle. He was sick, he was throwing. No,
I'm not giving him excuses for this.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
This was just this was Kansas City had a bad
game plan coming out. They were trying to froll the
ball too much. There was no balance in the beginning.
They did they didn't run the ball, and it allowed
that front four to pin their ears back and come
after him, and that played right into Philadelphia's hands.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Well you're you're, you're right.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Well, when you say, well, the adjustments were not made,
but I would have to add this as a caveat.
The Eagles defense made sure that the Chiefs never established
a rhythm. And you know this, that offense was used
to scoring points and not scoring points like they did.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
In in years pass.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
They were the type of team that they said, well,
they got there by winning a lot of close games,
and they were hoping that this was going to be
the same way. And the reason I say that, so
I'm gonna run this down to you, now, this is
kind of like, you know, a four year sample size.
So in twenty twenty, they were down twenty to ten
to the forty nine ers, came back and won that game.
(08:36):
Twenty twenty three, down twenty four to fourteen to the Eagles,
came back and won that game. Now they were down
ten zero to the forty nine ers again in twenty twenty.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
Four, came back and won that game.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Twenty twenty five, they were down ten nothing to the Eagles,
and they were holding on to the theory that guess what,
we could do it again. But The biggest thing about
any sport or any person is if someone is not
saying anything to you, which is this verbal communication, non
verbal reading, their body language said everything to me.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Well, at the end of the day, there were two
beat downs, and it was tough to figure out who
was bigger.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
Kendrick Lamar beating Drake.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Down for the final time by playing his disc track
as Super Bowl halftime entertainment, walking his ex Serena Williams
out in the middle of the act, or walking yeah or.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Wow, or the way the Philadelphia Eagles did it. And
I'm not sure that it's not I'm not sure it's
not Philly. They put the bigger, big down on them.
Kansas City had one first down in the first half
the first play of the game.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
Well, and then also you think about statistically, like in
the game last night and then the game in twenty
twenty four when they play the forty nine Ers. Travis
Kelce did not have a catch. I think at some
point in the first quarter that forty nine Ers game.
In the game last night, he got to have time,
no catches, no yars, like for the first time, I
(09:56):
guess in the playoff era with Trim Travis Kelcey in
in the Kansas City uniform, and you can see the
level of frustration on his face walking off of the field. Yeah,
and that's what you want to do to an opponent.
You want to let them know what you've been doing
in the past will not happen today.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
Well, and you saw there was a minut there where
he tried to talk to Patrick Mahomes and Holmes waved
him off angrily said I got it after that first interception.
Don't worry, I got this. That kind of man, I
don't know. There was some hubrists on the part of
the Kansas City Chiefs. Kansas City had six drives in
the first half and one first down, and that first
down came on the first play of the game. They
did not get another first down until the game was
(10:35):
out of reach. They didn't get a first down, they
didn't cross mead field. This is a This was an
epic beating.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
But think about how demoralizing that was to the ego
of not just Patrick Mahomes, the Kansas City fans, Andy Reid,
Mett nag everyone associated with that organization because they did
not anticipate that was going to happen. Because he was
like Okay, Well, Spags is the genius, which he is
in his own right. They were gonna come in. They
were gonna shut down, you know, Saquon Barkley, and they're
(11:07):
gonna force Jalen Hurts to be a quarterback with some
fellas though he didn't.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
But I guess they learned the lesson last night, didn't they?
That they did?
Speaker 4 (11:15):
I felt, you know that you could feel suit elation.
It was different emotions you could see from different Eagles players.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Jalen Hurts. It's a validation.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I am. I am.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
They don't you doubted me.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
I am Saquon Barkley, who toiled through one franchise that
is run They is the the the poster child for
being run poorly in the New York Giants and then
going to an organization that's run the right way and
immediately puts a team on his back and carries him
to a super Bowl. How many ago that inter Excellence
(11:47):
books got sold? I bet that thing was already on
the best. I bet it doubled after.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
You know, AJ Brown said there, I think that guy's
gotta be writing a see over. That guy's gotta be
writing a sequel right now.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Even excellent ear But this is what I love about
life in the game, because they both parallel one one another.
I'm sure our listeners have experienced this. Both you and
Grant have experienced it, and so have I and when
we still may be going through it where individuals put
(12:21):
limitations on you and estimation on you. Right, you can
only do this one thing, that's it. They put their
limitations on you as far as what they feel, how
they view you. But the great thing about life is
making people choke on their damn words. And I love
that aspect of life. But I'll even love it more
(12:42):
in sports when you watch people ascend to certain heights
that they knew that they could ascend to and others
did not believe.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
And that's what we saw last night.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Think about how members of Broncos Country felt about Vic.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Fangil when he was here.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
He went to the Miami Dolphins, Kina did sippar or whatever.
But then now he leaves them to join Philadelphia and
now look what he is. Definitely accomplished those.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Dolphins players that ran him out of Miami. Talking about
this guy's to whatever for us, I don't want to
deal with him.
Speaker 4 (13:16):
I was just saying, you know, Broncos fans ran him
out of town because you know, he couldn't get it
going on the offensive side of the ball. I think
there were some poor hiring, some poor quarterback choices. But
at the end of the day, I mean, the last
laughs got to go to the vic Fangio. He said,
he's cooking up some meatballs right now, just sitting there.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
I possible right now. It it was. It was a
fascinating game.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
Most It was set a record for the most watch game,
which is fascinating because a lot of people thought there
was going to be a drop off in terms of
people watching this game.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
One hundred and twenty six million people. It set a record. Uh.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Part of that is because to bTBI uh the app,
thirteen point six million people streamed it on that app.
How many people knew what that app was before of
trying to figure out to stream the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
That's why we watched it on My brother called me,
he was like, you watching the game. I was like yeah.
He was like, I'm watching it on TV.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
I was like, what.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
They had some good commercials during the Super Bowl too.
Speaker 6 (14:07):
I don't know if they aren't on the Fox broadcast,
but the Two b Ones y's just like, we know
who they are.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Now we'll get we'll get to.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
We'll get to some of that the commercials there and
some of the other stuff surrounding all that here. Uh
uh in just a little bit. I just wanted to
get initial reactions. Did you did you guys watch the
halftime show? This apparently was controversial for some reason.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
I loved it. I mean, yeah, go ahead, Greg, you
loved it. Why why did you love it?
Speaker 6 (14:29):
I just just think there were so many layers to
it that I did not even catch in the moment.
I didn't even see Serena come out and do the
crip walk until this morning.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
The a minor well that Jane, Yeah, I mean uncle
Sam was Samuel L. Jackson.
Speaker 6 (14:43):
I think a clear message was sent in that building
last night, and I loved every minute of it.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
I think a lot of that message went over the
people that it was intended to go to his head.
Speaker 6 (14:51):
Yes, but now we're talking about it today and hopefully
those people now hear it.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
While I was watching it, I was just like, I
wouldn't if everyone else is picking up, there's no.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Way I'm watching this.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
I'm like, there is no way what this is intended
to convey is being picked up at all.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Yeah, and there was so many nuggets.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Yes, it's so many layers that if you have to
go back and watch it and if someone just kind
of told you and narrated, Okay, at this part, this
is what this is saying, this is what this is
what they're saying here. And for me, I told my
wife I thought it was quite hilarious because I think.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
Everyone down in the wall is they were.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Waiting for the halftime show because they wanted to see
if Kendrick was going to do it right.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
If he was going to do it.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
And at the at the beginning of the show he
teased it. He teased it a lot, and it left
everything to be designed. He was like, no, he's not
going to do it. But when he did it and
then he hit a line from the song and the
whole I was like, yeah, I'm sorry, Drake, but it's
a rat. You see the smirk on his.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
So he cooked. It's over. He cooked.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Like the only thing that I could think about in
that moment was somehow merging Drake's face with.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
That Will Smith crying from the pursuit of happiness like meme,
Like in a moment I was like, Mandrake's watching on
TV right now. I can't say nothing. There's there's nothing
you could do at that point. Well, so could we
now replace the crying Jordan with the crying Drake meme?
Can we not do that? If forever lay the crying
(16:32):
Jordan's bed, can we can we do that now? Grant?
I think the crying Jordan meme lives on forever. Come on,
I think that's.
Speaker 6 (16:39):
One of those ones that's going to be a keeper,
Like the guy looking back over his shoulder, It'll be
used forever. But if you put Drake's face on that meme, now,
I think it's gonna get some good run.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Oh man, oh man.
Speaker 6 (16:53):
I was my my curveball bet of the night was like,
they're going to bring out Drake and low Wayne for
the last song, and we're going to realize that this
whole beef, this whole time was just a big PR
stunt for the Super Bowl halftime show.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
No, man, that dude had a whole stadium. People say
a minor and it was over at that point. It
was not a bit.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
At that point, there's no coming, there's no walking, but
there's no there's nothing you could say to somebody that
I'm gonna be wapping it up after that, No.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
And then he started off with the revolution will be televised,
and that it was.
Speaker 4 (17:28):
We got a whole lot more we plus your reactions
when we come back. Broncos Country Night here on Kawa
by six six nine zero is the text line. Lots
of your text pouring in about the Super Bowl. Someone
nice says, please explain to the blind guy what that
was all about.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
I couldn't see it. I just heard about it.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
What was it?
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Please? Talking about the uh? And and we had several
people actually asking what the a minor reference means? Uh.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
For those who don't understand that, there's a line in
the song not Like Us in which Kendrick Lamar says,
trying to strike a chord, but it's probably a minor
and that is a reference. It's a double entendre there.
It is a reference to Drake, who has many several
(18:15):
times been accused of grooming younger women. He came out
that he was talking to Millie Bobby Brown, the star
of Stranger Things, when she was fourteen, Billie Eilish, when
she was under They were exchanging text messages, you know,
underage and he's very much an adult at the point
in time when he was doing those things, and so
(18:37):
there's quite a lot there's you know, there's for a
long time there's been a sense that he has, whether
there's been any physical act or not, had inappropriate relationships
with women who were severely underage.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
Well, I'm glad you mentioned a double on TNDRE because
there are those who were kind of confused at what
they were hearing when that lyric was spat it out,
and they thought it meant from the musical aspect of it, right, which.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
Is why it's you know, the pun makes sense.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Trying to strike a chord a major, a minor is
a chord, but trying to strike a chord but it's
probably a minor meaning you know.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
Yeah, let's see for me.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
Once again, Grant, I don't know how you guys feel
about it, and I don't know how many of our
listeners actually listen to hip hop and understand the old
school way of the culture and now rap is a
little different. Back then, it was about the culture of
hip hop, standing on a message and being a lyricist.
(19:38):
Now you have mumba rap. Well, I don't know what
the heck they're even saying right. But this is what
made jay Z Biggie when there's that debate about who's
the best MC, and it's about being a lyricist to
be able to, you know, add certain things common threads
of life and to weave it into your your lexicon
(20:04):
as a hip hop artist. And for me, I love music,
whether it is hip hop or anything else. When someone
says something and I got to go back and rewind it,
like what did.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
He just say to me?
Speaker 1 (20:16):
That's when I'm like, yes, I'm into what you put
him down because you're making.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Me think yeah, And there's like you know and I
don't know, we don't want to stay too long. Probably
not hip hop topic.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
But for those who don't pay attention, there's two guys
that really do that really well.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
I think Kennery Lamar's probably the best at it.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
A guy goes by the name of Montana three hundred,
who's who's really good at it as well. That just
to have the multiple layers to every line that they
that they put out, it takes him aute to peel
the onion, you know, and get through everything that they're
they're trying to say. And I think there's they're just
great lyricists. But anyway, that's what for those that wonder,
that's what the A minor line is. There's a couple
of references in that song he you know he one
(20:51):
where Kenry says to bet a hydra little say if
you're in love, He bet a hydra little sister. You
know that kind of stuf mean, he's he was not
shy about some of those, some of those lines as
far as they kind of stuff goes. What do you
guys think about the halftime shows in jail? Not specifically
that one, but just halftime shows. Is that something you
stick around for? Is that an appointment viewing for you?
Do you do you care at all?
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Is it gone in the background or is that the
time to go stock up on chips and go to
the restaurant?
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Like what is? It all depends on who's performing now,
you would think like when Katy Perry performed, it's like, Okay,
well Nick, I'm going to the bathroom.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
But I'm like, no, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
Because it's always as of late a surprise apparent spice
of one, and when Katy Perry was doing her thing
and then Missy mister Minna Elliott, she came out.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
It was just like, oh, I didn't expect that. So
for me, these these halftime.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Shows have turned into well, who's going to show up?
Like we already knew that Scissor was going to be
there for Kendre Lamar, But when there's a surprise guest
and all of a sudden there's someone on the stage,
it's wild. But arguably, and this was still be my
favorite halftime of all of all time is when you
(22:03):
had Rex Grozman playing against Peyton Manning but he's playing
for the Colts and it was in Miami. Prince was
performing a halftime show and he's performing Purple Ray and
then all of a sudden, this guy hoping up is
all random. Man, I was like, yeah, half, I will
ever be top. Like I was like, this was just
never gonna get top. Like I don't really, I don't.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
Really care, but I guess they're like, I'll put an
eyeball on it for a minute and then you know
if like it either hooks me or doesn't, you know
kind of thing like I'll either use that time to
go I'll stick with it, or I'll go stock up
on chips or whatever else.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
The fresh beer. Oh yeah, Well wait a minute.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
I mean I would think Ben, you of all people
would have that uh that lazy boys shared with the
arm with.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
The fridge raid on the side of it jotically, especially
the Professor Xavier's wheelchair.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
I just hover around.
Speaker 6 (22:55):
See, I'm usually watching the game with people who aren't
the biggest football fans, so halftime show is everything to them.
The commercials in the halftime show, that's what they're tuned
in for. So I'm never leaving during the halftime.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
See.
Speaker 4 (23:06):
I remember like Maroon five and the dude came out
and was look, it was weird. He came out shirtless
and was like and I was like, I don't what
this isn't even like, what are we doing here?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Well, they didn't do that for you, Ben, That that
was that wasn't for you, just like this Jennifer Lopez
and Secure.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
That wasn't for my wife. That was exclusively for me.
Speaker 6 (23:27):
When they came sliding in towards the camera, Yes, America,
shut your eyes craft.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
This is a bit of all right moment exactly.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
So when they do these halftime shows, obviously they put
a lot of thought process.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Into who they want to perform.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Now I'm not saying that we're going to see next
year when it's in San Francisco, we're going to see
the Rolling Stones. I don't know if we're going to
see that, right, but it's all about a level of excitement.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Yeah, you know, I'd like to see something different.
Speaker 4 (23:59):
I like to see like weird Awl come out and
do parodies of his songs with the people whose songs
he's parodying.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
What I mean, that's not gonna make people excited, well,
probably not, but it'll make me excited. It'll make Ben happy.
We're just learn that I need weird Awl out there
with Coolio do an Amish paradise. Well you know what, Well,
if he's able to do that with Coolio, I'm just saying,
I'm weird now, it's going to be much more powerful
man than I knew him. Yeah, exactly, Yes, well.
Speaker 4 (24:29):
You know what I'm saying, GM or something. I mean, yeah,
they they can make cgi, make anything, do anything. I'm
just saying, Look, when.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
Was the Santa Claric you had Bruno Mars, cold Play
and uh Beyonce.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
I would like to see Bruno Mars do it again.
Speaker 6 (24:48):
I thought he was pretty I thought he's pretty energetic
bring out Anderson Park.
Speaker 7 (24:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
Iable. When you think about what.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
A halftime show is. Want performance, you want dancing, you
want things. It's like when The Weekend did it at
one time it was COVID year in Tampa.
Speaker 3 (25:06):
It wasn't insane.
Speaker 6 (25:08):
But Bruno's got a song with Lady Gaga. They could
do California Dreaming that they just did at the Grammys.
I mean that's what I'd be here.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
It's about combos and collapse, that's what it is. I
mean some collabs. Okay, well, who's the greatest collaborator out there?
Dj Khalatt? Yeah, you read them past and another one
that's just DJ kalt over and over, like twenty minutes straight.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Doesn't have to be music.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
What if there was a comedy set there, would that
do it for you? Or no, no, no, no, gotta
be hold on now hold on.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
It could be like for a minute, backer for a second,
if it was if it were Dave Schappelle, we might
be talking, which, by.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
The way, I found something out.
Speaker 4 (25:56):
But Dave Chappelle Today, as a matter of fact, Dave
Chappelle and Jim Brewer run an episode of Home Improvement.
What they were two of the people that got pulled
out of the stands to come talk to Tim the
tool man Taylor.
Speaker 6 (26:09):
I just recently watched Home Improvement, and man, it blew
my mind seeing that episode.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
I was like, what the hell is Dave Chappelle on
Home Improvement? This episode?
Speaker 4 (26:19):
Yeah, it gets better. You'll never guess what number of
the episode is. Keep in mind that this is Dave
Chappelle and Jim Brewer before Half Baked. What season four
episode twenty.
Speaker 7 (26:40):
That says, uh huh, season four episode twenty and they
randomly pulled before their famous Chappelle and Brewer out of.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
The get out of here.
Speaker 6 (26:55):
If you've never seen Half Baked, go watch it tonight.
What a great comedy alright, pbups, Like I.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
Appreciated the guy. The guy did something different. You know,
I wasn't really like a huge fan of but he
did something different.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
For the anthem, and I was like, oh cool, it's
It's like, that's a weird, tricky song to try to
like do anything with, and I appreciated that that guy,
like you know, did a little something different with it.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
That guy is John Batiste, and he's one of the most.
Speaker 6 (27:24):
Talented musicians I've ever heard or ever witnessed, and that
guitar or that piano was sick.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
It was actually I.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Went to Saturday night they had what they call Love
Riot Festival and he was the featured person.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
So I got a chance to see him.
Speaker 6 (27:43):
There's a video of him online for anyone and that's interested,
and you may not be, but of him playing Shakespeare
and turning it into or not Shakespeare, Beethoven and turning
it into like a jazz song. And then like how
he learned how to create the music that he creates
now through classical music and then putting his own twist
on it.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
It's really cool. Yeah, Like I said, it was one
of those things where I'm like, you know, whether you're right,
didn't touch Whitney, No, Chris Stapleton. As to say Stapleton's
probably in the top three. That was a good one.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
I mean Whitney's like a tier above. But Stapleton's, you know,
was in the in that. You know, he's in the conversation.
He's not on the stage, but he's in the conversation. No, no, no, no,
he Stapleton is on the stage. He may not be
at the mic. Yeah, okay, fair right, He's not like
playing base So that is.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
One of the toughest songs to actually sing because we've
heard it played or sung so much at sporting events, right,
so how do you add flavor to it without disrupting
the historic presence of the song?
Speaker 3 (28:47):
I didn't do that. It's hard to do.
Speaker 6 (28:49):
I thought the trombone Shorty and Lauren Daegel America the beautiful.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Yeah, that was great.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
I thought the saxophone guy who did the anthem whatever
game that was in the playoffs, was that.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
That was Detroit? I think so that was the Detroit.
I thought that was that was you know, that was great.
But yeah, I mean overall, I thought the traffickers in
the game, all that kind of stuff, I thought it
was fun. I didn't see all the up the uproar
people everybody's always might be questioned about it. He's just like,
did you enjoy halftime?
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Did you? If you?
Speaker 3 (29:16):
If you did, then why do you care you didn't?
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Then?
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Why do you care what anybody else thought? Like this
is is something stuck with me since last night. It's
bothering me.
Speaker 4 (29:26):
It blows my mind how much effort we put into
caring about someone else's opinion on something like why do
I care what your opinion?
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Is.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
But either I liked it did it work for me,
or I didn't and it didn't work for me, And
that's it. I don't care if you liked it or
didn't like it.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
But I don't think it's about carings the idea that
every person has their opinion and they want you to
know about their opinion, and they want you to care
about their their opinion. They want they want to let
you know, especially when they hate something why, they want
to let you know why they hate it for whatever reasons,
(30:01):
and they want to compare it to other.
Speaker 4 (30:02):
Things, and they need you to hate it too. And
I'm just not like, I'm not falling into that trap.
That's a social media thing and I'm just not getting
to that. Like, at the end of the day, you
liked it or you didn't like It's like all artists objective.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Did you like it okay? Cool?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
Then what do you care if somebody else likes it.
That's the premise of social media. It's kind of the
premise of what we do every single night. Right. People
want to listen in because they love you or they
love to hate you. I guess in your case, I
think it's the latter.
Speaker 6 (30:28):
Well, we all know that the haters are much louder
than the people that are press Well, that's why Benjamin
Albright has two hundred thousand Twitter five.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Hate.
Speaker 4 (30:38):
What is gonna haters are just the more engaged segment
of your fan base at the end of the day,
like that, because they're they're more dedicated, They're dedicated, they're.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
Giving you attention.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
They attention, they they are dedicated to get providing unwanted attention.
And as much as they say they hate you as
an individual, but they love to listen in and see
what you are talking about, what you are tweeting about,
so they could just say something about you. And it's like,
I mean, in my opinion, I say, give a life,
(31:10):
and because life is so difficult and I can present
so many challenges to sit around thinking about what someone
else is thinking about you. Man, I'll have the time
of the day. It's not enough days or another hours
in the days or or days in the year for
me to worry about you and what you think of me.
I don't care, Yeah, like why would you? Why would
(31:32):
you care about somebody's that you? I mean, like, tell
me you don't even know.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
Yeah, I'm not.
Speaker 4 (31:38):
Gonna take critics you know, like why would you take
criticism from people you wouldn't take advice from, you know,
like like at the end.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Of the day, like, why why would you sit there
and take criticism.
Speaker 4 (31:47):
I'm like, you're not going to ask that person advice
on anything in your life, so why are you taking
criticism on it?
Speaker 3 (31:51):
Because that's what criticisms is negative advice.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Well, see, the idea is, like they said, criticisms is
supposed to be constructive, right, constructive in a way of
building someone up, showing them what they can do better
in particular situations. But we now live in a culture
where it's so toxic and destructive. People want to tell
you how bad you are, and they really want to
(32:15):
lean into it. And for me, obviously we're not gonna
see the world in the same way as other people.
Speaker 3 (32:21):
But to me, we can. We can now agree to disagree.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
You don't have to tear someone apart in order to
state your European Yeah.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
Now I'm with you. We get back, We're gonna get
back into this.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
We're gonna do a little bit more of the super
Bowl and then, uh, you know what happens when opportunity
comes knocking.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
The Deebo Samuel stuff that came out today.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
We'll figure that stuff out. We come back Bruckles County
like you're okayaway,
