Speaker 2 (00:30):
Guys back in town, ready to rock after some time away,
and uh, it doesn't look like I missed a whole lot,
but nice to be back.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Welcome back.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
Last time I was here, you had eaten all the donuts.
Oh my, you ate eight and a half donuts out
of ten. I guess my big question is how did
how did you survive?

Speaker 4 (00:54):
After you guys left? I laid down, my stomach started
doing cartwheels. I threw up and slept for two two
hours and was fine after all that. So that seemed
to be that was key to my recovery. Throw up
and a nap throw up in a nap, Yes, give
rid of all that that's nice. So you didn't you
felt fine that night?

Speaker 3 (01:10):
I'm telling you, man, I had.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
I've had whatever number you think people have asked me
about donuts.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
It's double that. Everywhere people want to know about these,
don't you like? Do you think you could have one today?

Speaker 4 (01:21):
Kind a glazed donut. I'm not eating a glazed donut
for a while.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
You don't, like? You really don't. Can't?

Speaker 2 (01:25):
You couldn't. You couldn't see they make you sick.

Speaker 4 (01:27):
Now you think I could eat like a long John
or an apple fritter, but a regular glazed donut, it's
gonna be a minute for I have one of those.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Well, it was. It was exciting. He did better Drew
than I would have thought he was going to do.
And he was spotted in town that night at Drake's.
We we went over this last week. He was also
spotted getting lobster biscuit Public's, so it didn't completely do
him in for the whole day he had. He had
a few more. You were still able to eat.

Speaker 5 (01:50):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (01:50):
After I woke up from that nap, I was felt fine, really.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
It was.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
It was all anyone wanted to talk to me about too.
I kept getting phone calls by people wanted me to
check on.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
You and make sure you were okay.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Those dudes who were calling me a wimp because I
couldn't complete the challenge.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
You try to eat ten of Little Jeff donuts. It
was hard. It was really hard. It was really hard.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
I think, in hindsight, had you had you taken a
different strategy, Drew, I think.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
He could have done it.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
I think he was eating too slowly at the beginning
because he thought he could just massage his way through it.
Uh So I think if he, if he, if he
wanted to, maybe he could.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
Have done It.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
Was close, but he never really had it at all.
Just you needed to get way out in front. You
need to just sprint and then crawl to the end.
But when you were only at the average pace three
minutes in one doughnut, we knew you were done. So then, uh,
when that was over, I went to lunch before I
took off for the for the week with my friend
and we went to eat what's that name of that place,

(02:45):
the barbecue place on Versales Road. You know, like it's uh,
you know, good food. It's always like a it's it's
like an old old Lexington crumb. Everywhere and I saw
a radio host Jack Patty there Lexington legend, radio host,

(03:06):
radio legends having Well. I went in there. He was
so nice and he he called me over. We took
a picture and uh, he's like, you know he was
on the radio, or has been on the radio since
when like the I mean he's been on forever. He's
been on for like fifty years, and he's he's like
a legend. He was very nice, said really positive things

(03:28):
about this show, which I thought was very cool.

Speaker 6 (03:30):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
And then and then I uh left.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
I had some difficulties Ryan at an airport. Oh no,
you first flight, I literally got through security and the
moment I got through security, they canceled my flight. So
I'd already checked my bags, gotten through security, and then
they canceled the flight. So they said, you know, flight's canceled.

(03:57):
So I go to one of these people and I'm like, hey,
can you help me? They said, your next flight can't
do till tomorrow. So fine, I said, well, how do
I get my luggage? They were like, go downstairs, they'll
take care of it. Sat downstairs for two and a
half hours waiting for luggage for a flight that I
am not taking. Right and there was only one other

(04:18):
person who had been in my situation who had checked
the flight and didn't have the luggage. She was a
woman probably forty years old, married and clearly having drew
marital problems. Oh huh okay, So she that clear at
baggage clean. You wouldn't think it would be that clear
at bag But while we were sitting there next to
each other, her husband calls and she starts yelling at him,

(04:41):
and she says, you're probably wondering what that's about. And
I wanted to be like, no, not really, but we're here.
It's just the two of us, right, me and Nashville housewife.
I say, yeah, everything all right, And she then proceeds
to basically tell me, Shannon that she's contemplating divorce and

(05:03):
opportunity for you when you're when you're a stranger, though,
when you're a stranger and you're listening to this, it's
a lot. And so I basically became marital counsel council
for two hours, you know, and it was it was
a lot. So I just kept hoping, please bring my bags,

(05:26):
and they said, you know, we're gonna have to get
the people that get off the plane first. It was
like two and a half hours, So that was a
tough start to the vacation, but otherwise good stuff. So
it's like she's over sharing, You're just trying to get
your contact, and I feel like I'm going to check
on her in a couple of weeks shit, and see
if she was able to make it work from her husband,
see if they're going to be our.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
We need some sort of update one way or the other.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah, rebound, rebound, I just I just want to make sure.
I want to see families stay together. Then I got
back Saturday and yesterday watched the glory that is the TBT. Yeah, okay,
so you have to understand something I haven't really. I
haven't really been part of the TBT tournament. Last year

(06:10):
was I was out of the country. I didn't see
any of it, didn't see Drew get punched, didn't see
any of it. The first game where I was, they
didn't have it, So I didn't get to see the
game where they played like Astros or what was their
name of the Stros squad didn't get to see it.
So yesterday is the really the first experience I've had
with most entertaining thing I've seen it all the time.

(06:33):
All right, why do I love it?

Speaker 3 (06:35):
One?

Speaker 2 (06:35):
You get all these names from the past, right, It's
kind of cool to see the twins being the twins. Yep,
it's cool to see Willie. Willie looks like he's need
some sleep, but otherwise it's good to see Willie. Deron
Lamb looks exactly like Doron Lamb, just with a more mischievous.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
Smile, little longer hair, a little longer hair.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Then you throw in getting Archie and Khalil Whitney, getting
see them have good moments in the thing. I don't
know who some of these players are though. Who is
DJ Burns? Where did he come from?

Speaker 4 (07:07):
He played for Shawn Woods at Southern, played at Murray State,
but he finished at Youngstown State. But how's he on
the tea from sewn the shawn Woods connection Sean, Now, yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
We need him pretty good. He's more familiar than Jesser
ever was.

Speaker 4 (07:23):
He's certainly more than jess But you know, we watched
him play when we stopped and watched Youngstown State play Ohio.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
He played for Youngstown State.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Okay, I remember, I could not take my eyes off
of him. Because what you're seeing right now with lat
familia he was doing in that game. We need his
full speed the entire time we need him. And then
Skinner is that a person? Cinner? Who's the other guy
on our team that was not on our camp? I
can't Warwick?

Speaker 3 (07:50):
Who's that?

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Marcus Work?

Speaker 4 (07:51):
He played at Henry Clay career scoring leader, went to
Northern Kentucky, and last year played at Missouri and almost.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
Beat Kentucky with some big SHAZZI. Yes he's good on
our team too.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
He had like eighteen in that game in Missouri. Last
year's brother was really good last year. He doesn't seem
as good this year. I want to buck it. Okay,
I've only watched one game, but anyway, here's what I
love though, Shannon.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
What chaos these games are? Oh yeah, like no no.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
Offense to the coaches, but they ain't doing a lot
of coaches like. People are just running up and down
the court. It's like eight year olds playing basketball at
the end of the game, especially that sequence when it
was seventy six, seventy six and the next team that
got three points one is the funniest basketball I have
ever seen in my life, because neither team was going
to shoot anything but a threw no one was taken

(08:41):
a two, and that Auburn got a rebound. The guy
had a layup and just kicked it right back out
for a three. He wouldn't shoot it, and it was
joyfully out of control. And I don't know if you
saw the Louell game later in the night, the coaches
were cussing out their players. The referees are miked up,
so we get to see hear how idiotic they are

(09:02):
during the game. They would know the rules during the game.
They're not calling anything, Shannon. I mean, people are hitting
each other with a two by four and nobody's calling
a thief.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
That's one step above street ball. But it's not even
street ball.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
It's people dribbling off their foot.

Speaker 3 (09:17):
They're tackling each other.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
There are things that happen on that court. If they
happen on the street, you would be in trouble, and
they're just letting it go. I find it, Drew glorious,
and then I find myself like yelling at the screen.

Speaker 3 (09:32):
It's July.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
These people don't These are just dudes that played here.
And I'm going, Khalil, you can't take that shot in
that situation. Andrew Harrison, I thought that three was going in,
in and out. I'm like, it was awesome. And then
when Archie got the steal and the and one. First
of all, as he shot it, I thought, oh no,

(09:54):
because he hadn't been shooting free throws. Well, he's gonna
have to shoot these two free throws, and then it
goes in.

Speaker 3 (09:59):
I went.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
I loved it absolutely. I get into it too. I
didn't find a glorious I was livid when they went
to hero ball and we're taking turns jacking up threes.
Sean Woods, I apologize for the things I was yelling
at my TV. I couldn't believe, especially when they had
the lead, not when it got tight. They started a
big lead with elam ending all that size and they
completely quick is getting so mad. I was watching the

(10:23):
Louisville team last night. Montres Harrell is the best player
in the league. No one could guard montress Harrell. But
the end of the game, they didn't even think about
giving him the ball, like these random guys were trying
to shake four people and shoot a three. They were
playing a team called Sideline Cancer, which at first chanted
I think I thought was this teams are admitting that
they are cancers. To the team, but it was sideline cancer,

(10:47):
not we are sidelining cancer. They have the little dude
who's balding, who's the best player I've ever seen.

Speaker 3 (10:54):
Did you see that?

Speaker 2 (10:55):
I don't think he's balding. I think he's already there.
I think he is bald he's not in the process,
stops and hits forty footers and talks trash. He did
a three, He had a layup and he shot a
three and banked in off that. That was amazing. So
I'm just a huge fan of this. I'm a huge
fan of watching it. I'm also just a huge fan

(11:16):
of It's clear like the network is kind of into it,
but not really into it. So Robbie Hummel, who called
our game, he got in the car and went to
Louisville Shannon and called two games that night. He hit
the two games in Lexington and he left here. Our
game ended at five. He was there in Louisville at
seven for their game that night. It's pretty good timing

(11:37):
to get from there.

Speaker 5 (11:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (11:39):
Yeah, I don't wonder if he had his own personal
helicopter or something, but yeah, you know, in these tvts,
you got guys that are in full jerseys who are
coaching their team. Like that's stuff and I love it.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
There was that one game last night where they had
the guy clearly there was a jersey that they ran
out in jerseys and he had to wear it because
it was way too tight and he's like his belly
button was showing me the jersey.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
Was too tight.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
As funny as you think the Kentucky games are, we
at least have the connections to the Harrison's Willie All
the gates. Watch a random TVT game where you don't
know anyone, and those are the fun ones. He the
ball guys versus the ball guys. The other DJ Burns
played last night, the one from MC State. He has
not been keeping in shape. I know that may not

(12:24):
that may surprise you, but he was fun. They had
the guy from the NCAA tournament that carries the boombox. Yeah,
he was in it. Oh Wichita State has a guy
that they call It's not White Mamba wat Mamba because
he's got hair that's blonde. And they're the shockers. No
if you see this, Yeah, I watched a lot of

(12:45):
TVC he was awesome. I love it and now I
guess it's set up to where if we keep winning,
we will host every game.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
Right. Yeah, it's a little gut beat.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
We're now in place to gotta win Tuesday night and
then they gonna win the host.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
They play Tuesday night at six o'clock. I'm going to go.
Everybody needs to go like it, like it's We had
a pretty good crowd yesterday. But I don't know how
much are the tickets. It's expensive. Are they a little expensive?
I mean you can get in the door for cheap.
I don't know exactly what's whatever they are. They people
need to go because Tuesday Night's gonna be fun.

Speaker 5 (13:20):
Now.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
I think that team they played Tuesday night's pretty good.
Oh we have Beef. That's Archie's old team. He played
for them for several years. He got them to the
final four last year. He's a leading scorer. But then
this year he said, sorry, guys, I'm going to Law
Familia and then they got put in our regent.

Speaker 6 (13:33):
Wow, get the text message asking to be on La
Familia's team last year. We found out that last last
week in.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
The interview, let me say this about that, and I'm
not done talking about this.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
We're coming back.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
But your interview, both of yours, but you kind of
let it h Ryan the interview with Archie. I don't
you know. I don't listen to things when I'm gone.
That's just but people said, Matt, you need to listen
to that. I thought you did an awesome job. I
really I mean that, because you did better in that
than I could have. Because you know, sometimes this is

(14:08):
gonna shot people.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
I like to cut people. No, no, no, I.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Like people don't think that's true, Shannon, but I'm gonna
say it did a little bits.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
It is a myth.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
But you you did exactly what you should do there,
which is you let him talk, which allowed him to
open up. And I thought his thing where he talked
about that year he played here and how his role
was not what he thought he'd be. I just thought
it was it was excellent, and I wanted to give
you both of you kudos for that, but that really
was I thought think that it was one of the

(14:40):
best interviews that we've ever had on here, and you
you deserve credit for I.

Speaker 4 (14:45):
Appreciate you saying that. Andrew and I talked about this.
You can just see it in real time. He's working
through some stuff that happened to him. As an eighteen
year old kid that he had never talked about and
never really I'm so.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
Proud of him exactly. Yeah, and then he makes the
shot man and that was us. And he made the
not in such a perfectly archie way, running into three people,
throwing it, banking it off the glass like, that's such
an archie way to finish it too, So that was great. Also,
both teams Shannon at the end of the game looked
like they're coached by John Caliperry. Yeah, at the end

(15:20):
of the games, none of them are running anything. Team
looked like it was completely John Caliperry basketball.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
We'll take a break, come right back, cancel.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
Watching the end of the game execution in the TVT game, Hey,
I can't believe I'm interested in this b after watching
Pope's team all year and see the Pacers watching everybody
just standing around. It drove me crazy. It did me too,
but in a great way.

Speaker 4 (15:48):
Well, you explained exactly why the TVT tournament is successful.
It's just that that chaos street ball that you get.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
Well, the elam ending is also great, yes, because they
can't just hold the ball. So that happened in that
Louisville game last night. The other team had a huge lead,
but they just you have to go score. You can't
like wait.

Speaker 3 (16:07):
And I like that.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
I enjoyed the elam ending in this format, I don't
want anywhere else. I hate how like we saw yesterday,
everyone completely forgets the concept of team basketball and they
all want to hit the game winner. I think it's hilarious.
I think it's funny. Can I say a couple of
things about just also what it says to me about
some bigger people like Okay, Ansley Almonor's on the team. Yeah,

(16:31):
but like he doesn't get to play. Does that maybe
give you a little more appreciation for what Pope did
last year?

Speaker 3 (16:39):
It does?

Speaker 2 (16:40):
Actually had this thought yesterday watching the game age showed
me how good these pros still are. That Ansley Amenor,
who just played competitive basketball, barely can get on the
floor and although he did hit the game winner Saturday,
he hasn't even done much when he's on the court
outside of that. But it shows It's kind of tells
how good these pros are and also shows what happened
last year. I think it shows, you know, I mean,

(17:03):
he's Mario's favorite player, But when I.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
Saw hansy Olmanara.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
I was like, I don't know if this guy can
play Kentucky, But the fact that Pope made him into
a contributor on a very good team, I think it
showcases to me some of his coaching ability. Then, I mean,
you know, a lot of these other teams, the dudes
are the best players are only a couple of years
out of college, and Almonor is and he's not even playing.

Speaker 4 (17:27):
I it shows the brilliance of how he put that
roster together. He knew Almonor was not going to be
a starter, but he wanted a guy that could hit
a three. And it worked, and it worked, and it
works what his role was, and he played it, played
the role perfectly.

Speaker 2 (17:39):
I do, I do genuinely love that Archie and Khalil
Whitney are getting these moments, like getting to have these
kind of the cheering at the at memorial and just
I'm just really, I just you know, I'm a sucker
for these guys. If you think about it, three out
of the five or six biggest players are all guys
who had a hard experience. Is here Archie, Khalil and

(18:01):
even Andrew Harrison to some extent and for them to
get all that love and that the fact that they
would want to come back. I just think that's I
just think that's really cool. I was worried yesterday Archie
was going to get the whole experience again. When he
won for nots in the free throw line, I was like,
oh no, no, we hugged Archie last week and dug
but he got the game winner. I said, we did

(18:21):
that interview. It doesn't matter what happens in this tournament.
Archie's already had a successful week because he was able
to explain himself. He's told Brian Ryan I during the break,
he said, I've waited twelve years to be able to
explain my side of what what didn't work out that way?
And listen, big shout out to the fans as well.
I saw on social media you guys all reached out
to him. His social media followers went up after that interview.

(18:43):
So that's very cool. Now who do they play now?

Speaker 3 (18:46):
I'm not sure who they played now?

Speaker 6 (18:47):
Amberline Drive, the Archie's what is Emberline Drive?

Speaker 2 (18:51):
Where is what's an Everline Drive? Where are they? I
have no idea Who's what's Everline? I don't know everybody's
everybody's looking like, do you know there's no one curious
but me what happen? Like I understand what it means
to sideline cancer, Yeah, but what does it mean to
be an Everline Drive? I just know they've been a
contender in this almost going back to the first few years.

(19:12):
So uh, they're no, they're no easy opponent. We can
look over. But as far as where Eberlin drive the
street and who are these people? Have no idea who
who brought them together? Who's their twenty Beckham h they
have some recognizable names. Give me who the Everline drives well?

Speaker 5 (19:30):
A J.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Slaughter played at Western oh Davion McKnight, Lexingtonian. Right are
these all like? Are these traders to Kentucky? Davion McKnight
and both by the way.

Speaker 3 (19:41):
A J.

Speaker 2 (19:41):
Slaughter and davi On mckknight both former hay Kentucky gifts.

Speaker 3 (19:45):
Were they really?

Speaker 2 (19:47):
They both were on the hay Kentucky set with from here.
But mister basketball, that is just a It's not like
one where they're attached to school. I mean, there's Iowa, Washington, Arkansas, Bellerman, Providence,
UC Irvine, Austin. They're they're from a little bit everywhere.

Speaker 6 (20:02):
I've got your answer on why it's called Eberlin Drive
says the team was named after the street in Fraser,
Michigan that co general manager Jacob Hirshman grew up on.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
So that's why it's called Aberline Drive.

Speaker 6 (20:12):
So you know, if you manager, it could have been, well,
you don't want to say your street name, but whatever
your street name.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
I mean, I could say my old street name. Yeah,
Edgewood Road. That sounds like a TBT name. Actually that
would be a good name, Edgwood Road. Lost Familia versus
h Wood R. One thing, one more thing and then
I'm gonna move forward. Uh, feel free to tell me
I'm wrong about this. There's a part of me that
wants us to change the name from wah Familia.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
It feels very caliparious, Chris.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
Let me give you some of the other names. West Virginia.
Their team's called Best Virginia.

Speaker 3 (20:45):
Love It.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yeah, awesome, Marshall thundering heard heard that makes sense? Wichita
State the Shockers. Their teams called the Aftershocks.

Speaker 3 (20:55):
Uh huh.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
War Ready, Auburn's War Ready, Louisville's the vill.

Speaker 3 (21:03):
I We I feel like.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
I want something other than law Familia. That's a Cal thing,
and it's fine, but like I want it to be
something Kentucky. Also, Cal's Italian, and we use the Spanish
spelling of law Familia, not the Italian. I think Cal
was going for more of the Italian approach, so use
the Spanish. So let me ask you this seven seven
two seven seven four five two five four on the
text machine. If we were to change the name and

(21:28):
make it something Kentucky again, best Virginia aftershocks heard that
the vill What do we picking Kentucky?

Speaker 3 (21:39):
Wentucky? See?

Speaker 2 (21:40):
I thought Winentucky? Yeah, I thought Winentucky isn't bad. Maybe
people don't like it. There seems that there are themes
that rhyme with Ucky that maybe we don't we don't
include in the name.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
We should go all in. Let's lean into that.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
Blue balls, Uh, the Commonwealth.

Speaker 3 (22:06):
You don't like that? You mentioned another one though, that
was pretty good. We liked Wentucky. There was another one
that came in like right at the beginning. Oh, I
can't remember what's what you said it was? I don't either.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Well, there's oh, God of them catitude, these are going
to be just remember we do these nicknames. We were
always terrible names. The favorite thing we do, and we
do do that. The worse the better for me. Yeah,
power k okay, I think more football with power K.
But I don't hate it, all right, I just think
it would That's just my take, all right, before I

(22:38):
want to go to the phones. But I've waited a
long time, so Shannon, I have to talk about the
Cold Play couple. I know it's been a few days away,
but I didn't get a chance to, like really, and
it hadn't calmed down. I have some strong thoughts about this,
but let's just go through it real quick. I woke
up Thursday morning, turned on my phone, saw it immediately,

(22:59):
like on a random TikTok. It had not blown up yet,
and I thought, oh, this would be great. If we
were on the rate, if I was like this, this
would be with this would be great by the end
of the day.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
I've never seen anything blow up like it.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
It harkened me back to a previous time in the Internet.
I would even say like a pre Trump Internet, because
now the Internet it feels like eighty percent of the
things we talk about are Trump related, pro or con right.

Speaker 3 (23:29):
And then it's also people are so hateful to each other.

Speaker 2 (23:31):
Right, this felt like it was a pre you know,
it felt like what Twitter was like in like the
early two thousand and tens, but it was fun and
the like. Yeah, it felt like it was like, Oh,
let's make let's make funny pictures and jokes about things.
We're all coming together to watch them together because it

(23:51):
was such a perfect conglomeration of absurdity. It's cold Play
of all bands, Shannon, Like, if it's any band except Coldplay,
I don't think it's as funny, But it's Coldplay. It's
a CEO and the head of HR. Yeah, you know,
not just two employees, arguably the worst two employees you

(24:11):
could have do it, the CEO and the head of
HR of HR. Right by the way, that company was
started in Cincinnati.

Speaker 3 (24:19):
Really, did you know that.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
That's a Cincinnati company that then moved to New York.
The reaction, what what did he think he was doing?

Speaker 3 (24:29):
Took him so long.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
I mean, he he got on the floor like he
had been shot.

Speaker 3 (24:37):
Contract.

Speaker 2 (24:37):
I mean, he was like that meme of of Homer
Simpson going into the bush.

Speaker 3 (24:42):
Yeah. Yeah, he just he just melted collapsed to.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
The ground, slowly, slowly. She turned around and looked like
she was even laughing. He he'd been shot. He looked
like Lee Harvey Oswald had taken him down. Yeah, he
felt his account getting cut in that moment. Chris Martin,
the singer's got to be like, well are they having
an affair?

Speaker 6 (25:05):
Like?

Speaker 2 (25:05):
That did not help? Made it funny, That did not help.
It was a perfect storm of everything awful that could
have happened in that scenario. So I have like three questions.
Question one, if they had just acted normal, what happens Shannon?
What if they just act like their account?

Speaker 6 (25:25):
No one would have recognized them and none of this
would have been going on right now.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
New York Okay, so that's important. The concerts in Boston,
they're from New York. Can we all agree if they
don't collapse, nobody would have. It wouldn't have gone viral.

Speaker 3 (25:41):
No, not like that. Nobody would not have.

Speaker 2 (25:44):
One Twice, somebody in the stadium might have known, and
maybe they still would have been done with their spouses.
But it wouldn't have gone viral, not even close. Even
if somebody in the stadium knows, it takes someone actually
uploading it to the internet, and that person to be filming.
I don't think it gets out at all if they
just if he just acts normal. Yeah, here's the other

(26:07):
thing I learned about this. They do this in every
Coldplay concert. Coldplay puts up on the Chris Martin apparently
stands there and he sings about people in the crowd.
So he'll do this intro and go, I want to
say hello to the crowd, and he'll put a picture
of somebody up and then he will make up a

(26:28):
thirty second song about them, okay, and he'll like sing
it when he starts that, Shannon, don't you have to
let go of the person that you're on a mistress
date with? Right, isn't that a like go to the
restroom moment?

Speaker 6 (26:45):
Oh yeah, yeah exactly unless they're not big fans and
didn't realize that.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
But but if you watch the video, they had gone
to somebody else first.

Speaker 3 (26:53):
That is it.

Speaker 6 (26:53):
That is the stupidity of this entire thing. When you
see that they're doing this time to go grab a beer, get.

Speaker 2 (27:01):
Away from each other at that point, Right, this tells
me how bad they are hiding this. They're probably at
at the headquarters doing out in the open. If you
know there's cameras going around and you think we're still
just gonna cuddle up, then you're just being reckless. So
was his reaction the natural reaction, just fall to the.

Speaker 4 (27:19):
Ground when you're when you're a CEO of a billion
dollar company and you're having an affair with the HR
director and your wife's going to see it.

Speaker 3 (27:26):
I think you follow the ground. Did he think that
was going to do? It's too late.

Speaker 6 (27:32):
They've already seen you to that point, and now the
cover up is worse than the cover up is worse
than the crime.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
The cover up is why you went viral.

Speaker 4 (27:41):
Do you think while he's headed down to the ground,
he realizes I just lost.

Speaker 2 (27:46):
This is the part where I'm gonna say I feel
a little sorry for I know that's not gonna be
a popular sentiment. They shouldn't have done it. Their spouses
are obviously that's the worst for them and their kids.
I grant you all that, but I want you to
think about the moment after it happened. They probably walked

(28:09):
to leave and they're like, oh, no, this isn't gonna
be good. Yeah, but Shannon, they could have had no
idea it was gonna be what it was.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:18):
No, even in that moment, they could have never imagined
this is going to be everywhere they like, there's no
way they could have imagined that. They had to think, oh,
maybe our spouses are going to get told. But they
could never have imagined they were gonna be on every
television show, every newspaper, every internet that it was gonna be.

Speaker 3 (28:42):
It's around the world.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
Okay, it was in the newspaper in India. I saw it,
like they show, like they could have drew. They could
have never fathom that that would happen in that moment.
They're probably thinking, at worst one of our friends was here, Yes,
it's gonna get back when you get what we need
to get our probably didn't think that the Phillies mascots

(29:07):
would be re enacting them at a game two days
later or that. I think I saw Morgan Wallin say, hey,
we're gonna do a kiss cam if you're having an affair, Like.

Speaker 3 (29:14):
How about stuff?

Speaker 2 (29:15):
I know, I'm like, I know newspapers aren't as big
a deal, but how about the cover of the New
York Post with you on the front and the headline
Dumbo tron.

Speaker 3 (29:26):
Oops?

Speaker 2 (29:26):
Did you could they have imagined that was gonna happen?

Speaker 6 (29:29):
And you know, normally these things last for twenty four hours.
Twenty four hours, no legs, and it's still being talked
about and it's.

Speaker 2 (29:36):
And you know, people will move on, But that picture
is going to be used forever.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
Yeah, there's already been so many memes made.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
I mean the one from the office with Dwight true
and Pam was one of my favorite things. But forever,
when you're talking about something happening and you're wanting to
like hide it, they're gonna show that picture forever.

Speaker 3 (29:57):
Oh yeah, you go ahead. How quickly your life can
change any instant.

Speaker 2 (30:02):
Shannon, you're reading my mind. This has been something that
has like always been on my mind forever, and I've
talked about it on this show sometimes. How your life
can change like that. Yep. And it's never the same ever,
And it can be amazing, it can be terrible, right,

(30:24):
it can be serious like someone passes away, or it
can be funny or whatever.

Speaker 3 (30:31):
They'll never.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
Like get over this, like ever, they can't get a job,
you think the HR.

Speaker 3 (30:40):
Lady, No one's gonna she.

Speaker 2 (30:41):
Can't be an HR ever?

Speaker 3 (30:43):
Again?

Speaker 2 (30:44):
Can she not?

Speaker 3 (30:45):
As an HR person? Ever? Who would hire her?

Speaker 2 (30:48):
It's probably the worst thing you can do is the
head of h have an affair with the CEO? So
what would you do? Let's say? Okay, so two questions.
I know I'm going long, but I can't help it.
It's it's just two questions. Ryan, you're a great friend.
Let's say the man is your friend?

Speaker 3 (31:06):
Do you call him? Oh? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (31:08):
How long would it have taken you to reach out
to him? Probably as soon as I saw it? So
what would you have said? Because you're as good a
friend as I know. What what do you say to
your friend? I think his first name was Andy? What
do you say to your friend?

Speaker 4 (31:21):
I probably said, hey man, look said you got to
get out in front of this, and you.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
Need to tell your wife first. Are you going to
like sympathize with him? No, you're not gonna be nice.

Speaker 4 (31:32):
If it's out there, like you know, I don't think
so if I'm here, if he's my good friend, like man,
So you got to get out in front of this.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
You need to go have and talk with your wife
right now.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
Okay, But that that ship sailed, like, what what would
you tell? You wouldn't say, hey man, I'm here for you.
You thought I would think you would try to Yeah,
I would definitely do that. Also, I thought you meant,
like what advice would I give him? But yeah, I
would say, man, look you need to need a place
to stay.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
Go say on my couch for a couple of days.

Speaker 2 (31:57):
Would you suggest that they should shin it?

Speaker 3 (32:00):
Like? Should they?

Speaker 2 (32:01):
He hasn't even made a statement like should they? Should
they do an interview like that? Fa not the one
coding coldplay. I thought he actually had a real statement.

Speaker 6 (32:12):
I haven't didn't resign, right, he resigned? Yeah, I believe
that's real news.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
But what would you have him do?

Speaker 3 (32:18):
Should like?

Speaker 2 (32:19):
What what would should he do? An interview on Good
Morning America?

Speaker 3 (32:23):
Like what should he do? But what good is that
going to do?

Speaker 6 (32:25):
I mean, I don't know. I think it's already done.
The damage has been done with that. You've already embarrassed
your wife and your kids, and just keep embarrassing.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
Him over and over and over. Nothing you can do
at this point, all right, So do you feel sorry
for them? No? Not even no. No.

Speaker 2 (32:40):
I mean, if you're the head of a billion dollar
company and you've got a life you love and you
don't want to lose that, I think sleeping with head
of HR, you've dug your own grade.

Speaker 3 (32:50):
I do not feel sorry for him at all, but
only that.

Speaker 4 (32:54):
The only feel I feel sorry for him is the fact,
you know, they went to a Coldplay concert just to
enjoy themselves in the evening, ended up lives just a little.

Speaker 2 (33:02):
Yeah, okay, this is my little case for feeling a
little sorry for We all know people that have cheated
on their spouse. Yeah, okay, all of us. Everyone listening
to this show. No somebody that's done that. Those people
didn't have their lives have this tap into them, not

(33:23):
even closed. So you can't even have a little bit
of sympathy for that, because I mean, you know, you
know a person that did this. The only difference between
them and this is the Coldplay piece. But I wouldn't
have sympathy for them either. If they got caught at
a cold Play concert cold up during kiss cam, I
would have to forget another job.

Speaker 6 (33:44):
I mean, this guy doesn't need another job, doesn't Okay,
But but but the job is going to look extreme
with examples of people we know.

Speaker 2 (33:50):
I'm out and only CEOs sleep with the HR. I'm
just saying, if someone is that dumb with a kiss
cam to it in public, I don't have sympathy for them.

Speaker 3 (33:57):
Here's my.

Speaker 2 (33:59):
I don't have sympathy for their act and and I
have more sympathy for the kids, et cetera. But like,
this is a pretty harsh punishment for these people. I mean,
they're going to be a meme for Ada.

Speaker 4 (34:11):
It looked like they were in maybe in a suite,
so their suite had to be probably former co workers,
like other co workers.

Speaker 2 (34:16):
There's other pictures of them that that it looks like
because they thought the woman next to them was their
co worker.

Speaker 3 (34:22):
She was not.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
The company said no one else. She wish it was
just a random woman that happened to be there, gotcha.

Speaker 6 (34:28):
Let that be a lesson. Should have went to a
Motley Cruse show. They have a different kind of camp,
Yes they do.

Speaker 2 (34:35):
Eighty seven. All right, I'll take your calls right over
this Chazon.

we'll get another high five in here coming up? All right,
Tom go ahead, tom uh Yeah.

Speaker 7 (36:46):
New name for the wow the team I would think
with blue Kat Tucky.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
Blue cat cat see here we go shit and the
name is it blue cat Tucky. I appreciate That's I did.
That's a little bit of everything, A lot of syllables. Yeah, Mario,
you didn't like that one is much? You wouldn't like
blue cat ducky, blue cat go blue DC.

Speaker 3 (37:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (37:13):
I love these like suggestions for names because they're all terrible,
exception of like a couple.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
Well remember the greatest one though, Remember when we were
trying to name the twenty fifteen teams, Station in corporate
Devastation incorporated.

Speaker 3 (37:27):
That one.

Speaker 2 (37:27):
Yeah, that one that was terrible.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
It was so good.

Speaker 2 (37:30):
Noah, go ahead, Noah, Hey.

Speaker 7 (37:35):
Guys, uh so I as you say for it, so
we all know. Obviously we give credit to uh Caliperio
during his era for getting.

Speaker 3 (37:43):
Up that championship in twenty twelve.

Speaker 7 (37:45):
There's also a lot of flack on the other side
of the fact that there was at least three years
we could think of easily from the John Wallboogie era,
the first year of the Harrison Twins on the first
round of the championship, and then the year after with Towns,
Booker and all of them. So we could have easily
be at the point where we could be talking with
UCLA and championships. Can you guys think of another year

(38:06):
outside of those that it should have been an easy goal?

Speaker 2 (38:09):
Well, I mean should have been as a different thing,
all right. So I think if you play the Caliperi
years over, we probably win two titles. I think we
we I think Cali Perry, with all he did, should
have won two, could have won three, ended up we won.
I think there were three years that we were definitively

(38:30):
the best team. Twenty twelve, twenty ten, and twenty fifteen
we were the best team. You don't always win it
when you're the best team, so I think it is
fair to say we should have won two of those three,
but we won one. But then twenty eleven and twenty
fourteen we nearly won, and I don't think we were
one of the best. I don't even know if we
were one of the best teams. And we nearly won

(38:50):
both those times, but we didn't win. And then I
would throw in twenty seventeen as another team that was
good enough to win a national championship. I don't think
we were the best team. I actually think we lost
to the best team. Appreciate the call who won the title,
but I think he had six years. When you consider ten, twelve, fifteen,
the amazing runs we did in eleven and fourteen, and

(39:13):
then the talent on seventeen, that we had six legitimate
national title contender teams. I agree, and one that's not
on that tier. I still think we forget how close
twenty nineteen could have been and should have been if
they just beat Auburn, because that wasn't a tough final four.

Speaker 3 (39:28):
I think Virginia won that year.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
If they lose to an Auburn game that's missing their
best player, when your heavy favorite, I think that's finals.
Was Virginia and Texas tents right, And I mean, you
know Auburn loses their best player. You could make an
argument we should have been right there.
